king.

Chapter 517
"What happened in the city?"

Stopping a guard, Doris asked suspiciously.

This is the capital of Duke Moxi, and logically speaking, it should be the safest place.Pedestrians came and went in a hurry, soldiers patrolled everywhere, and there was a tense atmosphere in the air.

"My lord, the Warhammer Restoration Organization launched a rebellion and attacked many important places in the royal capital last night. We are deploying troops to suppress the rebellion."

Doris frowned at the guard's answer.A chaotic city without any sense of art is really annoying.

"Do you often have rebellions in your country?"

Doris asked.

Don't hate it, you still have to collect the necessary information.In fact, the elves have been collecting information on the Principality of Moxi, but they don't trust the human intelligence personnel they bought.

"No!
Apart from the occasional rebellion in the new part of the Warhammer Plains, the rest of the kingdom is stable.

What happened last night was just an accident.The Warhammer Restoration organization doesn't know which force has the support, and it has been making troubles around recently. "

After hearing the guard's explanation, Doris nodded slightly.On the whole, it was similar to what she had learned in advance, and the Principality of Moxi was generally stable.

The only difference is that the original Warhammer Restoration organization, which had little sense of existence, suddenly became active recently.

These are all small problems. If the Warhammer Restoration Organization really becomes a climate, it will only be good for the elves, and there will be no harm.

If it weren't for being unable to contact this organization, the elves would have raised their support to them.As a neighbor, naturally, the weaker the strength, the better.

If the human race can be used to kill each other, why should the elves do it themselves?

Under the guidance of the guards, Doris and her party arrived at the negotiation site smoothly.Compared with yesterday, the faces of the delegation of the Principality of Moxi are much uglier today.

Doris didn't take it seriously. There was a rebellion in the capital just now, so it's understandable that she was in a bad mood.

As a strong person in the sanctuary, her ears are still very sensitive. Even if she is a hundred meters away, she can clearly hear everyone's private discussions.

The content of the chat was a little strange. Apart from discussing the attack on the capital, there was a rebellion here, a fight between the noble lords there, and a bunch of romantic affairs among the nobles.

After inadvertently harvesting a lot of gossip, Doris' mood immediately improved.It is always pleasant to watch your neighbors suffer.

If she hadn't come here in person, she would not have known that there were still so many problems in the Principality of Moxi.Deep in her heart, she faintly felt that the clan had made too much fuss.

In a Principality of Moxi that is full of internal conflicts, it is enough to secretly support the rebels, so it is not worth worrying about.

But after thinking about it, the disintegration of the military power of the Principality of Moxi is still the direction of the elves' efforts.

"Ha... Your Majesty George, why didn't you come?"

When the words came to her lips, Doris hurriedly changed her words when she realized she had made a slip of the tongue.

The protagonists of this negotiation are the Principality of Moxi and the elves, and a group of ethnic countries including the Alpha Kingdom are just witnesses to the negotiations.

Witnesses can be absent from the negotiation, but the parties cannot.Without seeing King George, Doris has no interest in arguing with the people below.

"Your Majesty, wait a moment. There is a domestic incident that needs to be dealt with by His Majesty, and I will be here in a while!"

Count Renato said with a look of embarrassment.

Last night, George held an emergency meeting overnight, and everyone unanimously adopted the strategy of showing the enemy weak, in exchange for time for the principality's peaceful development.

This big show is not easy to perform, and if you are not careful, you will make a fake show for real.For this reason, they specifically studied the experience of neighbors between human countries and elves.

In the end, it is strange to discover the law: as long as you behave badly enough and severely crack down on slave hunting, the elves are the best neighbors.

It's really bad, but they can pretend to be bad!

The Warhammer Restoration Organization has taken the blame once, so let them take more blame and lead the revival movement against the Principality of Moxie.

The people in the newly occupied areas cared about their homeland and launched an independence movement. There was nothing wrong with it!
Aristocratic lords are jealous, and fighting is also a common event, and it is normal to happen in the Principality of Moxi.

……

After fabricating more than a dozen sets of plans in a row, the Principality of Moxi was "chaos".The attack on the capital is only the first step, and there will be more chaos in the future.

In order to make the performance more realistic, real people were arranged to fight at the scene, a large number of buildings were destroyed, and there were unlucky victims, but the dead were all death row prisoners who had changed their clothes.

As for the civil strife during the negotiation, which lowered the confidence on the negotiating table, these are completely minor problems.

As long as you make yourself bad enough, whatever conditions the elves put forward, the government of the Principality of Moxi only needs to do one thing well:

Make a deep review of the mistake, and promise that there will be no next time; compensation is also willing to accept, but there is no money in the pocket.

As long as the treaty is signed, the violation of the cessation treaty will be transformed into an economic issue between the two parties, and the nature will be completely different.

Because of the "violation of the cessation treaty", the elves took retaliation against the Principality of Moxi, which is in line with mainland practice, and no one can say anything.

But simply because they are poor and cannot afford material compensation, no matter how aggressive the elves are, the nations of the human race will inevitably sympathize with the Principality of Moxi.

When it comes to racial disputes, this kind of "sympathy" can also be transformed into diplomatic pressure.

The more correct the government of the Principality of Moxi admits its mistakes, the lower the probability of the elves taking action.

As for the outcome at the negotiating table, I have to lose face, so I have to give face to the elves, so that they can step down!

"Humph!

Then let him hurry up, the deity has no time to waste. "

Doris said pretending to be angry.

She has no sympathy for people who are not punctual.But what happened to the Principality of Moxi was something she wanted to see.

Deep in her heart, she couldn't help sighing: "Fortunately, the human race is good at fighting among themselves, otherwise all the races in the mainland would be really dangerous."

If it wasn't for the inconvenient relocation of the elf mother tree, maybe the elves followed the example of the dragons and migrated out of the continent of Aslant to gain a foothold overseas.

There is no way, it is really tiring to be neighbors with the human race.

Unlike long-lived races, policy continuity is very strong.Humans are a forgetful race, they are good babies now, maybe they will become bad kids in a few decades.

So much so that the elves need to constantly gain a sense of presence in order to be able to deter their neighbors and live a peaceful life.

Without keeping everyone waiting for long, George walked over with his tired body and dark circles under his eyes, and he knew that he didn't have a good rest last night.

This is not acting, but that he really didn't sleep last night.In order to perfect the plan of showing the enemy weak, the senior officials of the Principality of Moxi are fighting at night.

This scene fell in the eyes of all the elves, and the original doubts about whether something happened in the Principality of Moxi also eased a bit.

There were no surprises, followed by dragging negotiations, and Hudson dozed off after listening.

It was all caused by inadvertent making friends. Just after exercising and about to fall asleep, George pulled him up to help research the plan.

This busy work lasted all night.What's even more exasperating is that after breakfast, this guy even sent someone to send ten beauties over, calling it a reward.

The problem is that Hudson came here with his wife. Facing the resentful eyes of his wife Melissa, he naturally had no choice but to decline decisively.

"Marshal Hudson, what do you mean, do you want to sabotage this negotiation?"

Hudson, who yawned, was directly confused by Doris's operation.He didn't say a word, he was just in a bad state.

If you're not a negotiator, why should you concentrate?There were so many deserters present, it was obvious that they were deliberately targeting them.

"Beautiful Miss Doris, you are probably mistaken, I am not a diplomat.

I came here today just to watch your negotiations, and now I only represent myself.So play to your heart's content and ignore me. "

Hudson replied bluntly.

In order to facilitate the quarrel, he even dismissed the representative of the Alpha Kingdom himself.

A free person means that you only need to be responsible to yourself when you speak.Even if there is a fight, it is also a personal conflict.

Although he didn't know why Doris was staring at him, his intuition told Hudson that this woman had absolutely no good intentions.

Attracted by his charm?

Wash and sleep!

Hudson still believed that the teenage noble lady was attracted by his charm.

The Elf Yujie in front of me is hundreds of years older, and her mind has already matured, how can she be so childish?

If you really want to lie, the little elf who is following Doris looks stupid and cute at first glance, so it should be easier to fool.

If he foolishly thinks that Yujie in front of him is interested in him, and wants to have something happen, he probably will grow grass on his grave one day.

You don't have to use a knife to kill someone, because the color character already has a knife on it.Unable to restrain his desire, he could not survive three episodes in the continent of Aslante.

"In this case, please go out! You are an eyesore here, which affects the progress of the negotiation.

So young, so indulgent.I really don't know what you human nobles are thinking! "

Doris's disdainful words immediately aroused the crowd to watch.Representatives from various countries, who were originally wandering in the sky, cast their suspicious eyes on the two of them, as if they were looking for something.

In an instant, Hudson had a sense of déjà vu.But this kind of thing can't be explained yet, and just as he was about to open his mouth to fight back, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

What kind of jealousy is this? It is clear that he wants to make use of the problem to drive him out and remove a great help from the Principality of Moxi.

I have to admit that this old woman is really cruel.In order to gain an advantage in negotiations, he doesn't even care about his own reputation.

Of course, as an elf, his reputation in the human race is really not a big deal.

After a little hesitation, and secretly looking at George, Hudson immediately made a decision.

"Miss Doris, have I overindulged, you can come and try yourself.

As for the feeling that it will affect the negotiation, then I will leave first.If I leave, the negotiations still do not come to fruition, that would be unjustifiable. "

After speaking, as if to cover up the previous embarrassment, Hudson pretended to be angry and left, leaving Doris alone to face the strange eyes of everyone.

Deep down, Hudson was broken.The diplomatic negotiations that were supposed to be high-ranking were abruptly turned into a bloody romance drama.

For the affairs of the Principality of Moxi, he has made such a big sacrifice this time, and he will definitely settle the score with George later. It is definitely not something that can be dismissed by a few beauties.

"Humph!"

A cold cry, accompanied by the coercion of the strong in the sanctuary, came out in the hall, and pulled the melon-eating crowd back from the gossip.

Eating melons also depends on the target, and two top powerhouses are involved at the same time, and talking nonsense will kill people.

But not talking about it will not affect everyone's speculation about the relationship between the two.If there is no accident, after they come down, the romantic news of the two will spread to the mainland in the shortest possible time.

Perhaps because of the lack of support, the subsequent negotiations went smoothly. Facing Doris' aggressiveness, George showed defeat.

"My lord, what happened this time was our mismanagement and we should take responsibility for it.

We are also willing to accept your compensation, but the payment time must be delayed.

Everyone knows the situation in the Principality.After two consecutive wars, there are also huge foreign debts of hundreds of millions of gold coins.

......"

The long speech complained for more than half an hour, the content was not repetitive, and it vividly described the suffering of the Principality of Moxi.

The scene was sad for those who heard it and tears for those who heard it, which made all the elves dumbfounded.There is a super poor ghost in front of the feelings, isn't it just a waste of time!

"no!
I don't care how much debt you have or what difficulties you face, the compensation you should give must not be less! "

Doris said through gritted teeth.

It is called deferred payment in the name, but it actually means that you don't want to bear the loss.Wait until the foreign debt is repaid, and then pay the material compensation. God knows when the Principality of Moxi will be able to pay off the debt?

"Your Majesty, His Majesty George did not lie. The Principality of Moxi has indeed owed a huge debt, and their finances have been struggling on the verge of bankruptcy.

The Kingdom can testify to this point. Having also experienced the hardships of the war, the Alpha Kingdom’s finances are also struggling. As an envoy abroad, I was owed five years of salary.

The situation facing the Principality of Moxi is even worse. It is because His Majesty George has a good way of making money that he can persist until now.

They are really unable to pay the huge amount of compensation you proposed.In this context, deferred payment is the best choice.

If you don't believe me, you can investigate the financial situation of the Principality of Moxi, and you will know that I am not lying. "

Minister Alpha said suddenly.

Originally, he was wondering why his marshal left so cooperatively, but now he understands everything.

The Principality of Moxi is a poor man, no matter what the negotiation result is, the final outcome will be the same.

There are too many compensation materials that need to be paid, which is nothing more than adding a debt to the books. Anyway, the debt is too much to burden the body.

The big deal is financial bankruptcy!
"boom!"

A slap shattered the table in front of her, and Doris reprimanded angrily: "You are playing me sincerely, do you really think the elves are easy to bully?"

Hearing the movement inside, Hudson rushed to the rescue as quickly as possible.However, Lei was still very upset by the scene in front of him.

Under the coercion of Doris, everyone in the Principality of Moxi was like a helpless child, looking at the representatives of various countries for help with aggrieved eyes, their bodies were trembling and they were about to collapse.

If he hadn't known the truth in advance, Hudson would have been fooled by this scene.The effect was also very obvious. After the Minister of the Alpha Kingdom spoke, representatives from various countries of the human race left the stage one after another.

How much sincerity is not important, the key is that all countries of the human race have expressed their positions, which requires the elves to think twice before acting.

"Miss Doris, don't be so angry. You have seen the situation of the Principality of Moxi, and it does not pose a threat to your country at all.

It's not in anyone's interest to let things continue to drag on.It's better to reach an agreement as soon as possible to quell this dispute.

In any case, you can get a lot of compensation, it's just that the time period is so long.

Instead of continuing to make trouble, it is better for everyone to continue to discuss slowly and formulate an installment compensation agreement that suits the actual situation of the Principality of Moxi. "

Hudson's persuasion not only failed to calm Doris' anger, but made her even more angry.

Isn't this playing elves as monkeys?

If she had known that the Principality of Moxi was so poor, she would have been obsessed with material compensation and made concessions in other areas.

"What if we don't say yes?"

Doris gritted her teeth and said, that gaze seemed to be able to cut people into pieces.

"Miss Doris, it's better not to be like this. I have some bad news for you:

Just now, the government finances of the Principality of Moxi have been liquidated, and His Majesty George came late just to deal with the government's bankruptcy.

All the taxes of the Principality of Moxi are mortgaged to the creditors, including all future tax increases, which should also be used to repay debts first.

It can be said bluntly that their financial situation will hardly improve in the next 30 years. "

Hudson spread his hands and said.

If the government of the Principality of Moxi, which continues various crises, is not financially bankrupt, it will really be unjustifiable.

To match the show, the Near East Development Bank has just taken on a tax-backed loan.All the funds raised were used by the Moxi government to pay foreign debts.

Theoretically speaking, after the government of the Principality of Moxi went bankrupt, more than [-]% of the taxes collected by the Principality government would be used to pay bank loans.

The agreement reached just now has actually been reduced to waste paper because of the loss of payment ability.

Things have developed to this point, and there are only two choices left for the elves: either accept the deferred payment and win a diplomatic victory in face; or continue to die.

If the Principality of Moxi is strong and threatens the strategic security of the elves, then Doris can choose the second option without hesitation.

It's just that the current situation is special. The Principality of Moxi, which is in civil strife, is already rotten enough. It seems that they don't need to add more things to the snake.

According to past experience, without external interference, the human race will start the infinite internal fighting mode.

Once a foreign enemy invades, it will prompt all parties in the internal struggle to unite and face the aggressor together.

……

　Suddenly encountered a navy attack, a little confused.

What is a trillion, tens of billions, 100 years of unpaid compensation... I have never written it, where is the data?

The negotiations have not yet ended, and the huge compensation figures have come out.What's even more weird is that someone actually believed it, no, no, no...

Give me an appraisal standard: Anything that Haiyue hasn't written is a rumor of the navy!Those who deviate from the rhythm of the plot are all here to make trouble.
