Power and Empire Chapter 1447: In charge of the Northwest (4)
The news of the collapse of the entire army of the Principality of Blaise came, and the tangled leaders of the Brandenburg opposition watched each other, and collectively silenced. Anyway, the third condition can be achieved! "In private, there was such a voice. The sound of the trombone at the end of the battle was faintly sounded in everyone's hearts. The last fig leaf of the opposition alliance can be discarded. Everyone jumped directly to the first ones with great tacit understanding. Content, the progress of the negotiation began to accelerate,
The two sides shifted from war compensation directly to the demarcation line after the armistice. In fact, everyone knows that this is the real highlight,
The sun shines down from the colored glass on the zenith, forming a faint beam of light, countless points of light, jumping up and down here, like a never-ending dance,
This is the fourteenth day of the half-talking. The situation outside has turned upside down, but here, it is still the same, everyone is waiting for the final result
Selectively glanced at the opposite head of the opposition, who was a little nervous, and looked calmly picked up the water glass on the table, and said in a condensed voice, "What is the ultimate goal for you to start such a war? The ultimate goal of resisting the Julius family tyranny? What is it? Is it to defend justice or resist hegemony?"
" Stop joking, grab profit, get land, get wealth and greater power. Isn’t this the end result of everyone’s hard work? Now that the Blaise and Baston areas are a foregone conclusion, we can sit down , Brandishing a knife and fork unobstructed, starting a feast of division of interests,
" The previous conditions remain unchanged, with Brandenburg as the dividing line, the north and the south are divided!" The multi-selective voice stopped, stretched out a finger, drew a line on the table, and continued, "We won’t Interfere with your interests in the south, but Brandenburg must belong to us. This is the condition for our truce."
"No", one of the leaders of the opposition shook his head with a serious look and said bluntly
"Such a division is really hard to make people feel sincere! To be honest, your country’s army is very strong, especially your majesty’s fierce fighting style shocked us, as the most important node on the dividing line 、Giving Brandenburg to your majesty is tantamount to handing over the long handle of the sword to the other party. No one can guarantee that your country will not point the arrow at us after it has annexed Blaise and Baston. !"
"You guys are really not confident! Don’t you see it?" Ducho took a sip of water, raised his head, his gaze is indeed an experienced politician, and he is insightful to the contradictions within the opposition and sneered. With a loud voice, he reiterated, "For our majesty, who has the advantage of the coast, the inland fortress of Brandenburg is of no strategic significance. If our country wants to fight against you, it can be done easily by sending a fleet!"
"This.
. . . . .
Several opposition leaders glanced at each other. This reminder is already a naked and strong threat. Everyone’s faces are embarrassed and their mouths are bitter, too rampant. It really is a group of barbarians who don’t know what it means to be afraid, although I don’t want to admit it, but this is the reality. The opposing navy has completely controlled the northwest coastline. If you want to start a war, you don’t have to worry about launching an attack from Brandenburg. The embarrassment of harassment
"If this is the case, why does your country need Brandenburg! "There is a voice of confusion from the opposition.
" My Majesty only needs Brandenburg, just because my Majesty has promised Juliers Voorburg to help him win Brandenburg as a dowry. This is a promise. There is no way, my Majesty. He is a person who keeps his promises!"
, the expression is calm but it is straight to the hearts of the people. "And what you get is the right to speak in the new regions. From now on, the influence of the Julius family will be completely withdrawn from these regions, and you will get the new things you expect. Regional structure, you will become an independent military group that can truly contend with the Julius family,
is that simple? Choosing words that touch people’s hearts slightly moved the faces of the opposition leaders,
" Of course, otherwise, why should our country come to this muddy water!" He turned his head, tilted his head and smiled, "Although my Majesty is a marriage of the Julius family, it is only a political transaction. , Now our country has fulfilled its promise"
" You are all sensible people. Do you think that your majesty will put the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers in a disadvantaged position against the entire northwest for a woman who does not know the so-called? What your majesty wants is the northwest In the name of the coast in power! That's all!"
"But you suddenly attacked Oacha and Blaise for no reason? Why do we believe what you said?" An old man with a sharp nose and dark eyes and silver hair retorted in a low voice.
"Whether it’s Oacha or Blaise, there is the Northwest Coast area. My Majesty is in power on the Northwest Coast. As a manager, is it wrong to clean up disobedient subordinates?" Jumped, smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth, with a calm expression, but made the old man opposite not know how to continue.
"Well, we can give up Brandenburg, but we need you to pay a compensation!" The old man on the other side gritted his teeth and said, this old man is Duke Mandel of Southend, as the strongest in the league Country, Duke Mandel looks like his ambition,
"Don't worry, for your understanding, our country is also good to offer!" Choose your hand to open the cover of the document on the table and pass it to the opposite person.
"This is?" The Duke of Mandel, who was sitting in the first place across from the other side, took the document first, his eyes swept, and he was full of confusion.
"This is a trade-sharing agreement!" Explained with multiple choices, "Trade sharing?" For opposition leaders who have never heard of such a concept, it’s like listening to the book, but sharing two The word, still let the opposition leaders **** their ears,
"Yes, it is that we can enjoy the mutual benefits brought by trade together!"
Selectively glanced at the opposing mentally sluggish opponent, and felt that it was a bit laborious to explain "Your fleet can pass through a safe coast, and it can also be protected by our navy! Your goods are within our country's control area, and you don't need to pay. Toll tax"
The multi-choice voice stopped for a while, and the eyebrows and feet rose slightly.
Wikea Falcons are really shady enough. These fools must not know that in the Falcon Empire, the goods themselves never need to pay tolls. The goods are taxed according to sales. He coughed. Continue to say "In exchange, our country hopes that you can give you the right to trade on land. This is mutually beneficial for you. In this report, the total trade volume of the Normandy region in the first three months is attached! The average is ∞. More than 10,000 gold coins!"
choose to point to the text with your finger and say seriously on your face, "I believe you all know that my country’s ocean trade market is very large, and what you get will greatly exceed your expectations."
"ぱ10,000 gold coins! "This number is like a stone thrown into a pool and burst open on the spot in the opposite summit
"Let me see!" The Duke of Denia sitting next to Duke Mandel unceremoniously snatched the text from the oldest Duke Mandel,
"You!" Duke Mandel's white beard all turned up,
"I'm sorry, it's a bit rude!" The Duke of Denia said embarrassedly, no apology could be seen on his serious face,
For this monarch who believes in the supremacy of the military, everything that can solve the military deficit is a good thing. Among the troops gathered in Brandenburg, 10,000 are from Denia. These troops need to eat and pay. , The Duke of Denia is worrying about this,
Trade sharing, which is quite tempting for sea-dependent countries like Denia. If you can enjoy it, Denia’s finances can be supplemented to a certain extent. Several other inland regions also We also pay attention to this aspect. Everyone knows what the other party said is true. The merchant fleet of Barbarians is rumored to be like a school of fish in the sea, and the trade of Barbarians is very prosperous. Many countries are actually secretly and in the northwest. The barbarians on the coast have made a lot of money,
It’s just that no one thought that the other party could earn 3 million gold coins in one month. This is an unimaginable wealth. Even in a country with a population of one million people like Denia, the annual tax revenue is this number.
Everyone swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and their heartbeat eyes flashed, but they still hesitated. Is there such a good thing?
Looked at the opponent with an uncertain face, covered his mouth with his hand, gave a dry cough, and laughed, "You have any doubts. The reason why my Majesty did this is to let you know that we are not A country that likes war, whether it is to strike at Oacha or the unification and Blaise and Baston regions, our majesty is only doing his best to shoulder the responsibility of governing the northwest coast! This is a matter of its own, and this agreement is our sincerity. Representation of,
"Actually, no one wants to see their own country amidst turmoil, peace is in the interests of both of us!"
"As long as you sign this agreement, it’s not just our northwest coast that will benefit you. How can you make a lot of money~ IndoMTL.com~ If you were still vassals of the Julius family, now You are already the real masters of the southern part of the Northwest Territories,
"This is the era, the wheel of the era that no one can stop. Now the opportunity to push this wheel is in front of you, and to us Brandenburg, you will create a new history in the Northwest." The choice is very inconspicuous. The mountain was not dewy and gave each other a hand,
"I'll just say, how could there be such a good thing!" After listening to multiple choices, the opposition leaders flashed an idea at the same time. As long as this agreement is signed, it is equivalent to officially acknowledging the other party's interest in the northwest coast. Actual control of ,
In exchange for a paper agreement for the entire Northwest Coast, this sale is really true. . . . . The Duke of Denia hesitated, picked up the quill on the table, and quickly signed his name.
Anyway, this matter is not bad for Denia. At least, I don’t need to think about the other side’s intimidating naval fleet. Seeing that the Duke of Denia started, several other countries hesitated and signed. Own name
came out of the negotiation field and took a dignified look at the documents in the hands of his deputy. The Northwest Bureau finally settled
On October 10, news came that the capital of the Principality of Bresse was breached under the Northwest Coast Army’s north-south attack. On October 15, the two regions of Luarka and Skive near the sea declared their obedience to the northwest coast.
