Our island owner is always playing dead

Chapter 68 Difficult Diplomacy

Under heavy siege by the army, Soler didn't show any fear because of the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

His calm and composed attitude made some people admire him very much.

From Kanmara to the capital of Bairos, it took only one day, which shows that the emperor is a little anxious.

After Sorel was arranged to move in, the emperor of Byros quickly summoned him.

It's actually Bailos who should be in a hurry on this matter, not Heat Island, because they're desperate to figure out what's going on.

Sorel soon went to see the emperor of Byros, and King Semian received him in the palace.

Emperor Semian used to be a general, and he ascended to the throne after the rebellion happened, so he has the blood and iron spirit of a soldier.

From the moment Sorel stepped into the hall, Emperor Semian's eyes never left him.

His majesty's eyes were vicious and vicious, as if he wanted to skin and dismantle Sorel until he died.

Bearing the tremendous pressure brought by these eyes, Soler walked to the middle of the hall, saluted Emperor Semian and said, "I greet His Majesty the Emperor, I, Soler, was sent by His Majesty Yelimo Saliman, King of Reshima messenger."

The Emperor looked at Soler for a long time before saying: "Welcome, Monsieur Ambassador."

The gloomy voice made Sorel feel that the emperor had killed himself ten thousand times in his heart.

Under normal circumstances, when a head of state receives the ambassador of another country, he will let the ambassador sit down after saluting.This is the attitude of a host to welcome guests, and it can also reflect the welcome of the leaders to the ambassadors of other countries.

But Emperor Semian didn't mean to let Sorel sit down at all. He just said: "Mr. Sorel, I heard that your navy launched a war against our army and captured them. You must take care of yourself." Explain this matter."

Sorel heard from Ye Limo that in the process of diplomacy, it is not a strange thing to use strong words, distort the facts, and turn black and white, but it is a normal state.But when he actually saw a noble emperor and said such words in person, he couldn't restrain the shock in his heart.

Sorel didn't show any emotion on his face, but said: "Your Majesty, I can explain to you how it happened."

The emperor sneered and said, "Should I not trust my own people, but my enemies?"

Sorel understood what he meant.

In order to show the sincerity of Heat Island, Ye Limo asked Sorel to send the captured marshal of Bairos back to Bairos.

When Sorel handed over Ye Limo's credentials, Byros' soldiers also took away the marshal.Before summoning Soler, the emperor must have asked the marshal.

Sorel stood where he was, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty, on the battlefield, we are indeed enemies, but here, we should be partners who can negotiate. You summoned me just to get a better understanding of this matter." the truth, and discuss how to deal with it next, isn’t it? Aggressiveness is not the best attitude.”

Emperor Semian still said very viciously: "It's not like this attitude, so what kind of attitude should I have?"

The war of words is meaningless, so Sorel continued: "This battle did not happen because of the provocation of our Heat Island Navy, but because His Majesty's Navy fired the first shot, and our Heat Island Navy fired back. There was a forceful response."

The emperor snorted coldly and said, "At sea, if who fired the first gun, I believe it is easy to know, but how can it be so clear who fired the first gun?"

Soler said: "Your Majesty, you may not know something. Our hot island has a small object called a telescope, which can help sailors see far away, and can see more clearly than the naked eye. Our navy commander Su Mr. Levan Freefly, who saw your soldiers shoot first, that's why he ordered the navy to fire."

Of course the emperor of Byros had heard of the telescope, but he had never seen it. Even though he knew that this thing was miraculous, the emperor would not admit such a fact for his own benefit.

So the emperor asked: "How can you be sure that you really have a telescope? Even if you do have it, how can you be sure that it is not your Sullivan who is lying?"

There was a trap in this sentence, and Sorel soon discovered it.

Now the telescope is a novel thing, and even Prince Gather and others are very interested in it, which shows that it is a very useful thing.The emperor had never seen a telescope, but he must have heard of it. If Soler wanted to prove that Heat Island really had such a novel thing, he would of course have to produce evidence!The best evidence is a real telescope, but it is hard to say whether it is possible to bring the telescope back to Byros, which is the emperor's territory.

The telescope is an important bargaining chip that His Majesty the King is going to use in exchange for the iron ore trade. Of course, Soler can't just hand it over.

So Sorel directly answered the second question, saying: "Commander-in-Chief Sullivan is a very trustworthy person. As the commander-in-chief of a country's navy, he can't be foolish, especially when it comes to the matter involving the war between the two countries. .”

Next, Sorel really saw the so-called hooliganism and evasion and false accusations in diplomacy.

The first time they met, although Sorel and His Majesty the Emperor talked for several hours, they did not reach any consensus.

The emperor has been following him around and talking, unwilling to answer his questions at all, and has not proposed any ideas to solve this matter.

When Soler walked out of the palace with his sore legs, he suddenly realized that the Emperor wanted to give him a blow and let him stand for several hours.Fortunately, Soler was born in the military, and has been engaged in business activities for more than half a year, which requires very high physical strength, so he persevered without any sweating, and even sat on his knees ground move.

After meeting for the first time, Soler returned to his residence, taking a bath while thinking about the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor.

At this time, without Ye Limo by his side, everything needs his own thinking.

Although His Majesty the emperor summoned him, his attitude was very bad. Judging from the fact that he was not allowed to sit down from the beginning to the end today, the emperor did not intend to settle the matter.

Saurel couldn't help sighing, it seems that what His Majesty was most worried about happened, the king and emperor didn't want to reconcile with Urushima.

However, even so, he will do his best to dispel the idea of ​​another conflict and war between the emperor and the heat island.

In the following time, Sorel insisted on visiting the emperor every day.

Sometimes the person who sent the message would say that His Majesty the Emperor is busy and has no time to meet him, and ask him to wait in the hall.

Then there was no one to serve him tea, and no one to wait by his side, so Solaire stayed there all day thirsty and hungry.In the evening, a waiter would say to him with a cold face: "I'm sorry, Mr. Sorel, the palace is about to close, please go back."

Sometimes the emperor invited him to visit the palace, and then took him directly into the emperor's private prison, watching the jailers torture the poor prisoners, the wailing and crying rang through his ears, and the bloody scene happened before his eyes.Sorel's heart trembled when he saw it, but he still didn't dare to show a little fear on his face. He knew that this was the emperor's method and wanted to scare him.

Sorel experienced all kinds of torture methods in the palace. Although he was not punished directly, he was tortured both physically and mentally. He finally understood what Ye Limo said, There is nothing in diplomacy but interests.

In order to protect the interests of Heat Island and His Majesty the King, Sorel has been enduring such treatment.

Finally, a week after Soler first visited the emperor, the emperor summoned him again.

This time, Emperor Semian was finally going to talk about serious business when he was summoned.

The emperor said directly: "Go back and tell your little king that you offended us, so in addition to returning our warships and soldiers, you also need to compensate us."

Sorel felt that the emperor's words were a bit ridiculous. He said: "Your Majesty, in this battle, it was your soldiers who first provoked our army, and then you were defeated. Why should we compensate you?"

The emperor twirled his finger and put the ring on, and said with a cruel smile: "No reason, it's because our Bylos is stronger than your Heat Island, if I start a war again, it's not just a matter of compensation, your little king , may lose the chance to be king again."

Such a naked threat made Sorel very angry, but he couldn't say anything that was equally threatening, so he said: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I can't accept your request, whether it's me or No one on the heat island can accept such a request."

At this point, Soler knew that this matter could no longer be discussed, because the emperor believed that Byros's national power was much stronger than that of Reshima, and he wanted to use force to suppress it, but neither Ye Limo nor he would succumb to it. A person who threatens with force.

It would be a waste of time to continue entanglement, so Sorel bid farewell to the emperor directly, and he wanted to go back and report the matter to Ye Limo.

The emperor was very surprised by Soler's firm attitude. Generally speaking, if he made a request, the ambassadors of other countries would bargain, and then the two sides reached a consensus to a certain extent.Unexpectedly, the ambassador didn't ask for anything, so he just said goodbye and left.

But he is the emperor of Bairos, so he will not keep Soler, just said: "In this case, we have no possibility of reconciliation for the time being, then let's see you on the battlefield."

After a week of torment, Sorel was used to such threats, and said, "I will bear in mind His Majesty's instruction."
