My Wife is a Counsel Chapter 4: olive branch

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of My Wife is an Archon!

The collection of Southern Emirates was the first to respond to the Sonia people's peace initiative, and their enthusiasm was extremely high.

For the peace initiative sent to Japan, the target of dialogue between the Sonyans was Prime Minister Ashikaga, and they sent an envoy to personally bring the peace plan to talk to Prime Minister Ashikaga.

Although Prime Minister Ashikaga invited the regent to discuss it, there is no doubt that in the Sonia people's plan, Japan can become a force to contain and balance the Northern Kingdom, and it will also adopt a posture to win over the Ashikaga government. .

For the neutral states, the Sonia people extended an even bigger olive branch.

After all, the Eastern Alliance is not so easy to enter. Neutral states can also enter the imperial framework as members of small confederations.

The difference between the Grand Confederation and the Small Confederation will mainly be reflected in the distribution of quotas for members of the Imperial Parliament.

According to the preliminary concept of the continent-wide peace initiative, the United Kingdom of Sonia and Sigrifenni has a quota of 100 members in the Imperial Parliament, and the Eastern Economic Union has a quota of 50 members.

From population to territory, the United Kingdom of Sonia and Sigrafenni are several times larger than the Eastern Alliance region. The allocation of quotas can be said to give the Eastern Economic Alliance a very important status.

The Kingdom of East Grifenni has 30 members, and the Kingdom of Tianhan has 20 members.

The Southern Brave Emirates collective, 20 members.

Japan Kingdom, 5 members.

Other autonomous prefectures and small confederations have one member.

There were originally more than twenty such neutral autonomous prefectures. However, several more states were voluntarily merged into the United Kingdom of Sonia and Sigrafenni. Today, there are still fifteen neutral autonomous prefectures.

Including Hanzhou and Antiguara, in terms of political status, they are actually among the neutral autonomous states.

It’s just that these two states have signed the Montenegro Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation and are members of the Montenegro Treaty Organization.

……

Kottman Military Base Commander's Office.

General Wollman was pacing, with a look of helplessness on his face.

The general trend of peace seems irreversible, and militants like him have become so out of date.

People across the empire are marching, cheering for the coming peace.

Over the past few years, war-weariness has permeated the entire continent.

Looking at Lu Ming sitting aside, Wollman sighed deeply, "It seems that this is the only way, but I think that in ten years, the empire will be renamed the Holy Sonia Empire, Dongge Rifenni will also cease to exist."

Lu Ming smiled: "The Sonia people have given you a very generous offer, right?"

Wollman nodded slightly.

There are three states in the northern defense zone, but the Baylton state, where the Baylton Bridge is located, is one of the four states claimed by the Sonia people.

In a secret letter written by Henry II, he promised to Wollman that if he successfully transferred the state of Baylton to the United Kingdom, Henry II would recognize Wollman as the military and political head of the two northern states, and even the two northern states. It can become independent from the East Grifenni Kingdom and join the imperial framework in the form of a United Autonomous Prefecture, giving it 3 members of parliament.

Wollman thought thoughtfully: "I won't agree. I can hand over the Bailton State, but I will not become independent from the kingdom. That will cause the kingdom to perish earlier. Moreover, I am just a soldier. Here The public opinion base will not agree with me as a military and political leader. Henry II's staff are very insidious and are just trying to dig a hole in their eyes for me." He looked at Lu Ming and said, "However, the friendship of the Han Kingdom, I am. Will always remember it."

The seven divisions of volunteers from the Tianhan Kingdom really entered the northern defense zone, and they were obviously really preparing to go to war with the Sonyans.

Lu Ming looked at Wollman and said: "I think that if you become independent, you may be able to better preserve the fire inherited by Greyfinni. Prince John is indecisive and has no prestige. King William must be possessed by evil spirits. Being controlled, there is no hope.”

Wollman sighed deeply and shook his head.

Lu Ming also picked up the tea cup and tasted the tea slowly.

In fact, now that there is really an all-out war with the Sonyans, I am not ready, especially when the Greifenni military and political system has been turned into a mess.

There is no doubt that if a peace agreement is reached now, the Sonians will be the biggest winners, because they have almost achieved all strategic goals and have dominated the imperial order since then.

Moreover, Henry II, who had ended the civil strife in the empire, would have reached its peak of popularity among citizens throughout the empire, especially among Westerners.

Probably because of this, he actually extended an olive branch to himself.

For example, in the two oil fields in Thoroston, Sonia people began to pay fees, and they were based on normal market prices.

Recognize the West Black Mountain Fort area as the legal territory of the Tianhan Kingdom.

We also began to fully lift the ban on trade between the Northern Territory and Sonya.

As for the Tianhan Kingdom only getting 20 members, it is actually an extension of the deep-rooted traditional thinking. The population of the Northern Territory is so worthless.

The total economic output of the Northern Territory itself is probably less than one-fifth of the United Kingdom of Sonia.

The Sonyans didn't think this would be a problem either.

From the Northern Territory, it is indeed in a period of rapid development with various investments coming in, and it should have developed peacefully.

What's more, if I insist on starting a war with the Sonyans now, I am afraid that I will become a warmonger in the eyes of all the citizens of the empire.

In fact, the Sonia people broke the Western tradition of autonomy for various ethnic groups, and there will inevitably be many conflicts in the future.

Of course, it wouldn't be a bad thing if peace could continue like this.

The sphere of influence that I can influence has basically extended to all the traditional areas where Central Asians gather. It would be good to develop the economy well next.

And speaking of conflicts, the neutral autonomous prefectures and the Eastern Alliance region will be the first to bear the brunt in the future.

On the contrary, in the Northern Territory, if the current economic situation were the Sonia people would not be interested at all.

The Sonyans covet the extremely wealthy Eastern Alliance region and will definitely find ways to annex it in the future.

However, most of the leaders of the Eastern Alliance members have an appeasement mentality and believe that peace is rare. After several years of intermittent civil war in the empire, peace is finally possible.

Even his close friends among the leaders of the alliance also think this way.

Then you can only walk slowly and watch.

……

Han Palace.

It was a very elegant study room with legal books on the bookshelves. Han Anni's pretty figure looked around curiously inside. Lu Ming followed her and smiled: "Do you like it? They are all decorated according to your style. ."

This is the study room of "Zhuangfeiyuan".

"Concubine Zhuang?!" Han Anni snorted, "You really know how to reverse history! I don't know what you will be scolded in the future!"

Lu Ming coughed, but he had a clear conscience. In fact, thinking about it, the biggest help he got to this day were mysterious and mysterious things, including time travel, including the help left by his ancestors, the Pearl Palace, Everything in Liuli Palace and Qing'e Honglings seems to be taken for granted now.

Han Anni sighed softly again: "However, I have also become your accomplice."

Han Anni was finally persuaded to come to Xinjing, but she put forward a condition that her best friend Xue Zihan also came with her.

Now Han Anni has been named Zhuangfei, and Xue Zihan has been given the title of concubine An.

Lu Ming couldn't handle this topic and remained silent.

"But is there really going to be peace?" Han Anni's big eyes blinked, full of expectation.

High-end intellectuals, most of whom are like Han Anni, are full of hope for this peace.

Lu Ming smiled: "Yes, public opinion is raging, so I, a warmonger, can only stop and wait and see!"

Han Anni stared at Lu Ming, "But you are really powerful."

Isn’t that right? The first time I met him, he was a suspect who was almost sentenced to death. In less than ten years, he had become one of the highest-ranking people in the empire.

From the perspective of imperial political status, this guy is already the head of the kingdom on an equal footing with King Henry II of the United Kingdom.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "It's just a fluke, the time, place and people are favorable."

I also feel that I have had good luck along the way. Maybe this is my luck. However, as Kaneda Kanxing said, the stars in the west have revived and the Sonia people have become powerful. They could still be divided before. You are reaping the benefits of being a fisherman, but gradually, you will have to face these things head-on.
