Chapter 673 673 Compensation
After all, Mirage signed the peace agreement. They agreed to all the demands of Tang State, and compensated Tang State with 30 laborers, and also compensated Tang State with 1 million gold coins.

Everyone knew that Mirage couldn't afford that much money to compensate Tang, but Mirage still had to sign the peace treaty.

In addition, Mirage was forced to become the first country in the world to admit that Tang State was destroyed by Qi State.They recognized the Tang State's occupation of Qi State, and humiliatedly submitted a petition to persuade Tang Mo to proclaim himself emperor.

The Dahua Empire was very dissatisfied with this petition at first, because Zhao Kai absolutely did not want to see a so-called empire appear on his borders, an emperor who was equal to him in status.

But the Frozen Empire also issued a statement by telegram, hoping that Tang Mo would become emperor and change the name of the Datang Kingdom to the Datang Empire.

I don't know what direction to consider. This kind of practice that has no real investment, but can sell Tang Mo's favor, and at the same time fight between the Dahua Empire and Tang State, is regarded as a game by many countries.

Everyone knew that Mirage was the first to persuade Tang Mo to become emperor because it was forced, and Mirage was actually one of the countries that least wanted Tang to become emperor.

But the situation is stronger than the people, the Phantom Kingdom has already been ridden by the battleship cannons of the Tang State, so they can only act as the mouthpiece of the Tang State, honestly speaking for the Tang State according to the wishes of the Tang State.

In addition, they still owe Tang Guo 1 million gold coins, which they must repay as soon as possible.

In fact, Mirage has no money to repay the debt. They bloodbathed Beiyuan City in order to repay Cyric's debt. How can there be any spare money to pay Tang Guo?

Therefore, most of the money from the mirage country has to be converted into goblin slaves, and then compensated in equal value to the Tang country to offset the war indemnity.

It is obviously unrealistic to only use slaves for equivalent compensation, and the mirage country can't waste so many people - they still need to replenish the army lost in the battle of Beiyuan City, and they need to resume production. People are needed everywhere. , It is impossible to arrest slaves on a large scale.

Theoretically, every time the refugees are persecuted into slaves to pay off their debts, it will damage the reputation of the king of Mirage among the civilians of Mirage. Mirage has already done a similar thing once, and they don't really want it to get worse this time.

You can see that goblins are inhumane when they expand abroad, and they still have to take some face into account when they treat their own people.

Therefore, the 1 million war indemnity paid by Mirage was actually collected collectively by Tang State from those treacherous countries.

To put it bluntly, the negotiation process of Mirage these days is a process of asking for money from all the forces that make Mirage declare war on Tang.

The final result was that the Frozen Empire had to provide Mirage with 1000 million gold coins secretly, and the Lions Empire had to provide 1200 million gold coins to "help".

Cyric finally gritted his teeth and exempted Mirage's loan of 2000 million gold coins to help Mirage tide over the difficulties.

It seems that allies are in trouble together, but in fact, a group of gangsters paid out a settling fee to silence the captured brothers.

In the blink of an eye, the fighting has stopped for more than a month. Although the peace treaty was signed today, in fact the war has ended for more than a month.

The body of Jiang Zhi, the last second prince of Qi State who is eligible to inherit the throne, was found in the ruins, which also means that Qi State officially died.

If nothing goes wrong, this country will become history, and the territory of Qi State will continue to exist as the land of Tang State.

Large-scale construction has begun, and everywhere is like a construction site.The speed of Tang's construction is fast enough to surprise people.

Finally, the Cyric special envoy team who came from afar arrived in Linshui. They flew from Longdao to Linshui on a C47 transport plane, and they had a personal experience of what a plane is.

To be honest, they don't like this kind of transportation, because the bumps and the overload during take-off are very uncomfortable.

But they were frightened by the terrifying speed of C47. They actually crossed half of the endless sea in a few days, which was unimaginable in the past.

The only thing that makes them feel depressed is that this C47 transport aircraft is not within the scope of aircraft technology sales this time. All they can buy is a simpler and more primitive three-engine transport aircraft.

The Cyric special envoy team who arrived in Linshui did not meet the sales staff of Datang Group. The first thing they had to face was the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Tang State.

In fact, the meeting between them was not to buy the plane, but to discuss the compensation for the attack on Long Island.

Sitting on one side of the long table, the diplomat of the Tang State stared at the Goblin envoy who arrived in Linshui with Cyric envoy, and said, "We still need the Goblin fleet to approach Dragon Island. The Kingdom of Boer gave an explanation."

Goblin's special envoy quickly waved his hand, denying the fact that the Goblin fleet was preparing to attack: "The Goblin Kingdom's fleet entered by mistake, not with any intention! Our warships did not cause any actual damage to Dragon Island..."

In fact, when Tang State was at war with Qi State and Mirage State, Goblin was preparing to declare war on Tang State—if their fleet attacked successfully, they would join the war within 24 hours.

It is a pity that their sneak attack failed, whether it was the airship sneak attack or the battleship sneak attack, they all failed.

Therefore, Gobles, who could not use the army to participate in the war, immediately gave up the idea of ​​participating in the war. Their navy was wiped out, and it was completely meaningless to join the war.

So until Mirage was beaten to the ground, Goble still pretended to be deaf and dumb. Even though Tang Guo condemned Goble's sneak attack on the radio channel, Goble didn't give any response in this regard.

Tang Guo didn't want to expand the war in his bones, so he didn't intend to declare war on the Goblin after the condemnation, so this matter was shelved and dragged on until today.

But since Tang Mo had taken the lead in selling the plane, blackmailing the Goblin Kingdom and Cyric became an inevitable thing to do.

So, the Tang diplomat sitting there sneered and asked, "Do you believe this explanation?"

Goble's special envoy is also an old fritter, and immediately shirked responsibility: "Although it sounds absurd, it is actually true!"

The powerful Tang country diplomat looked at the embarrassing Goblin envoy opposite with contempt, and threatened: "If you don't speak human words, you are not going to seriously explain the combined Cyric and Goblin fleet's attack on Dragon Island... Then we can also do things better in some aspects!"

Gobul is also a country with coastal cities, and they are really afraid of offending Tang. The Tang army's terrifying fleet was ordered to go south to block Gobul's port.

At that time, things will not end well. After all, the fleet needs money. If Tang Guo really uses the navy, he will definitely not give up if he doesn't grab a lot of money and go back.

The envoy of Goblin, who weighed the pros and cons for a long time, immediately came up with a countermeasure that he had already discussed: "Goblin is willing to pay 200 million gold coins... and also hopes to redeem the captives at the price of 300 gold coins per person... ..."

Don't you just want money?Can I still give it?Anyway, you all wiped out my fleet and there is no big loss. Isn't it enough to spend a sum of money to solve the disaster?
"Okay, let's do it like this." I didn't intend to really turn my face on the Goblet matter, and didn't think that Goblet would give more money, so the special envoy of Tang State nodded happily and agreed.

After getting a large amount of gold coins from various countries in one go, the whole world seems to be tightening their belts, and Goblin is no exception.

If you try to trick Goble under such circumstances, the risk is actually very high.Don't look at Tang's current combat effectiveness is very strong, but if there is not a few years of stable development, Tang's economic situation will also have problems.

The speed at which the diplomats of the Tang State nodded surprised Goble's special envoy a little. He even felt that he might have given too much, and he should bargain...

After dealing with Goblin's special envoy, the young diplomat looked at Cyric's special envoy: "Now it's your turn, all of Cyric...can you explain, your airship, your Battleship, why did it appear in the Dragon Island waters?"

Cyric's special envoy also played the game of shirking responsibility: "Actually, it was not sent by Lord Sophia. Cyric is a union, not a single family. Lord Sophia is just a member of the council, even if She is the chairman, and there is no way to prevent the directors from making their own decisions."

"And then?" Tang's diplomat leaned back on the chair, waiting for the other party to continue to explain.

Cyric's special envoy gave a name for being taken advantage of: "This time, the military action against the Tang country was done by the Marquis Celiana without authorization, and it does not represent the collective will of Cyric."

This Marquis is actually Sophia's deadly enemy, the woman who has been colluding with the dead smiling old man and the fat man.

The diplomat of the Tang State spoke directly, and asked the most core question: "In order to convince me of these words... how much money are you Cyric going to spend?"

"... 1000 million gold coins." Cyric's special envoy was also very straightforward and directly quoted.

"It still sounds very sincere... doesn't it? But we don't want similar situations to continue to happen, so this honorable Marquis Seriana... must be handed over to us." Tang's diplomat issued condition.

"Okay." Cyric's envoy didn't even bargain.

So the diplomats of the Tang State immediately realized something, and said clearly: "As for killing people with a borrowed knife, it is enough to do it once. If there is a next time, we will discuss the credibility of Lord Sophia."

"...We will convey this." Cyric's envoy was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said.
