The best excuse to launch a war is of course the provocation of the Persian Empire, but most of the Persian Empire's energy is focused on the Istan Empire, so naturally it will not provoke a powerful opponent like the Chinese leader.
In order to provoke an incident that could break out a war, Fang Xiaoyu turned his attention to its old enemy, the Istanbul Empire, which had always been at war with it. As the overseas business director of China Group Corporation, Wu Yu, after receiving Fang Xiaoyu's telegram instructions
I personally came to Istanbul, the capital of the Istanbul Empire.
I heard that the China Corporation, which is now the most popular company in the world, sent a representative. Abdul II, the current king of the Istan Empire, immediately decided to receive him personally.
In the palace of the Istan Empire, Abdul II met with Wu Yu. Wu Yu was used to meeting emperors of various countries in the Western Continent, and he did not feel nervous at all when facing Abdul II. After saluting, Ah
Abdul II asked in a deep voice with a slightly excited tone: "I wonder what brings you here, sir?"
Wu Yu smiled and said: "As the commercial representative of China Group Company, I am naturally here to sell products to His Majesty."
Abdul II asked a little strangely: "I heard that the owner of your company is Lord Fang of the Chinese Territory. Are you just here to sell products?"
Wu Yu smiled and said: "As for talking about business, I am just a businessman now. I don't know what my lord thinks. At least I am here purely to make money."
Abdul II said: "Then what products are you going to sell to me?"
Wu Yudao: "Your country has been at war with the Persian Empire. Naturally, I am here to sell weapons."
Abdul II said: "I wonder what weapons you sell?"
Wu Yudao: "Our China Group Company can manufacture any type of weapons in the world, and we can guarantee that they are the most advanced. I wonder what your Majesty wants?"
Abdul II sneered: "Selling everything? So will China sell the latest 'Northland' class battleship?"
Wu Yu said with a smile: "Of course I will sell it. One vessel costs 200 million yuan. If converted into gold, it is one hundred tons. I wonder how much your Majesty plans to buy?"
Abdul II slapped the back of his chair and said angrily: "Nonsense, how could you sell the most cutting-edge battleships of China so easily? Do you think I don't know your plans? You want us to fight with the Persian Empire?
But you are profiting from it, otherwise why didn't you come after so many years of fighting between our country and the Persians, but you came less than a year after the Kingdom of Jhansi sold the Patan area to you."
Wu Yuzong said: "This is very easy to explain. As long as the Chinese government does not prohibit the sale of weapons to foreign countries, we can sell them, even battleships. As for the fact that I have never come to sell weapons before, it is because the Chinese government has just lifted the ban on the sale of weapons.
It has been less than two years, and we have given priority to supplying to allies. In addition to the new ships ordered by China's leading navy, we have only recently completed orders from allies. Now that there are no orders, I will naturally go out to sell them. We cannot let our equipment and workers go.
Take it easy."
Abdul II thought carefully about this reason and it seemed reasonable. When he saw the other party, he stopped talking. Wu Yu said again: "As for political matters, I am just a businessman and have no authority or interest in politics. If
If His Majesty wants to discuss it, I can notify the diplomatic director of the Chinese Consulate on your behalf."
"Oh?" Abdul II raised his head in surprise: "If possible, I would like to meet him. As for the purchase of weapons, we can discuss it later. I need to discuss it with the ministers."
The Istanbul Empire is not as powerful as the Persian Empire. Most of its wars have been defensive. If it weren't for the Yaman Empire's secret support for many years, they would not be able to survive. With such a powerful ally as the Chinese leader, Abdul II would naturally
It's something you can't ask for.
Wu Yu's promotion was just Fang Xiaoyu's asking for directions. In fact, Wu Qiong had been waiting for news at Lakou Port in the Batan area. After receiving Wu Yu's telegram, Wu Qiong immediately boarded the ship to the Istanbul Empire. Five days
Afterwards, Wu Qiong crossed the Sinai Canal, bypassed the Dardanelles Strait, and arrived in Istanbul, the capital of the Istanbul Empire.
After receiving the news of Wu Qiong's arrival, Abdul II held a grand welcome ceremony in his palace. In this way, he could show his respect for the Chinese leaders, and secondly, he could demonstrate to the Persian Empire. For Abdul
Wu Qiong just smiled in return of the second child's little thought and did not point it out.
"Our country hopes to form a strategic alliance with the Chinese People's Liberation Army. I wonder what your Excellency the Special Envoy would like?" Abdul II asked anxiously before Wu Qiong could sit down in the meeting hall.
Wu Qiong said with a smile: "We Chinese leaders are naturally willing to make friends with His Majesty, but your country is at war with the Persian Empire. If the Chinese leader forms an alliance with your country, it will mean declaring war on the Persian Empire. This is not what we want to see.
Yes, after all, peace is the best environment for economic development."
Wu Qiong was not in a hurry to express his intention to come. The Istanbul Empire, which had been suppressed by the Persian Empire, was naturally in a hurry to escape. The more anxious the opponent was, the more hesitant Wu Qiong showed.
"But if the Istan Empire is completely defeated, the Persian Empire will have no restraints. They will implement expansion policies in the central continent. I believe the Bataan region of your noble family will also be very dangerous." Abdul II said as if
He is like a saint who sacrifices himself for the sake of the stability of neighboring countries.
Wu Qiong happened to borrow the donkey from Poxia. After pretending to think about it, Wu Qiong said: "It is not impossible to form an alliance with your country, but I need to sufficiently impress the interests of my lord. Although I have full authority to sign any agreement this time,
But after all, this will bring a war to the Chinese leadership, and I can’t make the decision without enough benefits.”
After listening to Wu Qiong's words, Abdul II's face changed wildly, and he said loudly: "I will not sell my country's interests in exchange for help." Wu Qiong knew that he had misunderstood, and couldn't help laughing, but he also felt sorry for Wu Qiong.
This tough emperor had some good feelings.
Seeing the serious-looking Abdul II, Wu Qiong smiled and said: "The Persian Empire has a lot of benefits waiting for us to distribute, how can the Ist Empire pay the price?"
After listening to Wu Qiong's words, Abdul II realized that he had misunderstood. He smiled at Wu Qiong and said, "Sorry, Mr. Special Envoy, I misunderstood."
Abdul II had no psychological burden on distributing the interests of the Persian Empire. Moreover, it was natural for both parties to form an alliance to attack the Persian Empire and distribute the post-war benefits.
Now that the two sides have a preliminary intention, Abdul II will not personally participate in the detailed negotiations. After all, this kind of negotiation is not his specialty. Therefore, after the initial intention, the negotiations were carried out between Wu Qiong and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Istanbul Empire Abadi.
It unfolded between them.
Wu Qiong regarded himself as a savior from the beginning, claiming that the Chinese Territory had no grievances against the Persian Empire. If it formed an alliance with the Istani Empire and went to war against it, it was entirely for the purpose of helping friendly countries. If they formed an alliance to jointly attack the Persian Empire, they would destroy Persia.
After the empire, the Chinese Territory must receive all Persian territory east of Badra as reward.
Abadis was shocked once this condition was made. If Badra was used as the boundary, the Chinese would occupy 80% of the territory of the Persian Empire, including the northern region with Bakhtaran, the capital of the Persian Empire, as its core. This was the capital of the Persian Empire.
It is the richest, most populous and most developed region. If the Istanbul Empire accepts such conditions, it will be in vain.
If such a jump was signed, Abadis believed that he would definitely be beheaded by Abdul II, so he made a concession and only agreed to transfer the Habar Province and Habar Province near the Bataan region after the war.
The province of Birjan was handed over to the Chinese government.
His reason was that the Istanbul Empire had fought with the Persian Empire for many years and had paid a huge price, so it should obtain sufficient benefits. What's more, the Persian Empire and the Istanbul Empire both belonged to Aberdeen. If the northern region with a large population was handed over to China, it would
The national sentiments of the people of the Stan Empire will be greatly harmed.
Wu Qiong, a savior of the Istanbul Empire, insisted on getting the maximum benefit, while Abadis argued tit for tat with the greatest credit. Neither side was willing to give in. Just when the negotiations reached a deadlock, a battle unexpectedly helped Wu Qiong open up the situation.
The Saar Empire, which had always been hostile to the Chinese Territory, immediately felt threatened after the Chinese Territory obtained the Bataan region and stationed a large fleet. Therefore, it made great adjustments to its policies on the Central Continent.
Just like the Yaman Empire secretly supported the Istan Empire, the Persian Empire's supporter was the Sar Empire. Although the two Western Continent powers seemed to be in harmony on the surface, they were actually fighting a proxy war. This was also the battle between the two sides for control of the Central Continent.
fighting.
After the Chinese influence entered the central continent, the Saar Empire felt an obvious threat. For this reason, it once hoped to reconcile with the Yaman Empire and stop this proxy war, leaving the Persian Empire free to threaten the Chinese influence of Bataan.
area.
However, since the Saar Empire has become very close to the Yaman Empire's rival Nantes Empire in recent years, and is also seeking an alliance with the Cossack Empire, this series of measures is obviously aimed at the Yaman Empire's increasingly powerful industrial capabilities. What's more,
The Yaman Empire has been comprehensively suppressed by the Saar Empire in terms of power in the Central Continent. He is eager to recruit more Chinese leaders to fight with them against the powerful Saar Empire.
In addition to these worries, the Yaman Empire is also worried that this is a conspiracy of the Saar Empire, perhaps to make it relax its vigilance and take down the Istan Empire in one fell swoop. Therefore, after the Saar Empire put forward this proposal, the Yaman Empire simply
Ignoring it, in view of this situation, the Saar Empire had no choice but to seek to solve the problem on its own.
Relying on its huge overseas transport fleet, the Saar Empire unknowingly sold one hundred thousand Martini Henry rifles, the Lanting-1 rifles that China had transferred technology to, to the Persian Empire, along with nearly two dozen rifles.
One hundred of the latest Mark heavy machine guns produced by the Nantes Empire, and nearly thirty 76mm light artillery pieces.
