"I don't want to agree, of course I have to hesitate." Tiqi said secretly in his heart, but his face was very calm.
Pierre said: "This is your opportunity, please cherish it."
A smile appeared at the corner of Teach's mouth, and he said calmly and firmly: "Lieutenant Colonel Pierre, I really have to think carefully before I can decide the future direction of the Kingdom of Hawaii. Please go back and wait. After making a decision, I will Notified to you."
When Pierre heard this, he was furious.
He, a dignified Lieutenant Colonel of the British Empire, spoke politely to the vulgar, violent and vulgar pirate in front of him. This was already a great honor. It was rare to see such a thing. However, this little pirate actually disagreed. In the past, If there is a pirate in front of Pierre, he will definitely kill the pirate without hesitation.
Now, he has restrained the anger in his heart, but Teach is disobedient, which makes Pierre feel that this person is too ignorant of current affairs, and he should be punished for not eating the toast and being fined.
"brush."
Pierre stood up suddenly, his body standing upright, like a sharp sword.
Tiqi waved his hand and said: "Go slowly, I won't send you off."
In an instant, Pierre's face turned the color of pig liver, and he was very angry.
He stood up, not wanting to leave immediately, but Teach understood that he was leaving the palace, which made Pierre feel ridiculous and a little discouraged. He had no place to vent his anger.
However, Pierre is an Englishman after all.
He maintained his gentlemanly demeanor and said unhurriedly: "Your Excellency Teach, I solemnly invite you to join the Commonwealth of Great Britain. If you agree, everything will go smoothly and any difficulties encountered can be solved. As for the United States Commonwealth, , or even France, is not a problem. The Kingdom of Hawaii is safe and secure in your hands. However, if you do not cooperate, I cannot predict what will happen in the end. Even whether you can gain a foothold on the Hawaiian Island is very important. The problem."
After listening to this, Tiqi secretly said that Li Zhen had foresight.
Previously, Li Zhen had anticipated the current situation. None of the three countries, Britain, France, and the United States, was a waste of money and would not let Hawaii Island be controlled by unrelated people. If Teach did not have the strength, he would only be bullied.
Unfortunately, Teach is no longer an ordinary pirate.
Ti Qi suddenly stood up, his whole person was sharp. He was not only a sharp sword, but also had an unruly character. His fierceness was revealed, giving people a feeling of arrogance. As the saying goes, you respect me. One foot, I respect you one foot, Pierre openly threatened, Teach didn't need to fight, and directly broke his face.
He stood opposite Pierre and replied forcefully: "I can answer Sir Pierre very seriously. If I get angry, not only will you die immediately, but all the hundreds of British soldiers on the island will die. , all the Commonwealth received were lifeless corpses."
Pierre's face changed drastically and he yelled, "How dare you."
"Is there anything I don't dare to do?"
Teach smiled sarcastically and said in a deep voice: "It is not only the British who want to control Hawaii, but also the United States and France. I just need to tell them that Lieutenant Colonel Pierre of the British is openly threatening me and will destroy me if I don't agree." I believe that they will work together to take action. When the time comes, let alone your small army on the island, it will be useless even if the country's army comes."
Pierre's face was very beautiful, changing colors and burning hot.
This time, I lost face.
Pierre was also a thick-skinned person, and he regained his composure after a while.
There was anger hidden in his eyes, but a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Your Excellency Tiqi, I just wanted to test your courage just now. I didn't expect that you are as tough and unyielding as the rumors say, and you are a strong man. I Pierre admires a strong man like you, and since you want to consider it carefully, I respect your decision."
Teach smiled and said, "What I just said is just talk. Lieutenant Colonel, you don't need to take it seriously."
The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention the unpleasantness just now.
Pierre said: "Your Excellency Teach, please consider it slowly. I am waiting for your good news."
Tiqi waved his hand and said: "Go slowly, I won't send you off."
Pierre felt ashamed in front of Teach and had no choice but to leave.
He was even a little worried that the quarrel with Teach just now would affect Teach's decision. However, Pierre thought about it. The conditions offered by the Empire were definitely better than those of the United States Federation. He believed that Teach was not a A person who is willing to be subordinate to others will definitely choose to be a king or president rather than a small governor of the United States.
Soon, Pierre disappeared from Teach's sight.
Tiqi invited Li Zhen out and explained in detail what had just happened.
Li Zhen said: "The conditions offered by Britain are quite generous."
Teach nodded and said: "In order to win over me, Yingji must provide sufficient conditions. When the situation stabilizes, I believe Ying will definitely change his face and want to control the power of Hawaii."
Li Zhen nodded and said, "That makes sense."
Teach continued: "While talking to Pierre, an idea came to me."
Li Zhen immediately asked: "What are you paying attention to?"
Teach looked excited and said: "My method is to drive a wedge between Britain, France and the United States, and use two of them to join forces to attack the third country. Just as I threatened Pierre before, unite the two countries to attack The other one, in this way, can kick out a country and only two will be left, and things will be much easier to handle."
Li Zhen thought about it carefully and said: "This is indeed a way, but your strategy is too simple and superficial, and it is easy for others to see the flaws. If you modify it carefully, you can continue according to this strategy."
Teach said: "President, that is feasible."
Li Zhen smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Yes, I have adopted this strategy, but this strategy must be postponed to a later stage. After the armies of the three countries arrive, they can unite vertically and horizontally to drive a wedge between the three countries."
"Okay."
Tiqi was so excited that he didn't expect that his suggestion would be adopted.
This excitement comes from the joy of being affirmed.
"Report."
The pirate came to report again and said: "The president, captain, and the queen of the Kingdom of Hawaii want to see you."
"Please come in." Teach ordered.
Not long after, Queen Emma walked in with her big butt twisted.
She stood in the main hall, saluted respectfully to Li Zhen, then saluted to Teach, and then said softly: "President Li, Mr. Teach, Henry, the missionary of the American Federation, visited me just now, hoping that I would surrender to the American Federation. "
Tiqi raised his eyebrows and asked, "How did you answer?"
Emma replied: "I said I need to think about it, and I haven't agreed to Henry yet."
Li Zhen's expression became serious, and his eyes when he looked at Emma were extremely cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Think carefully whether my situation has been revealed during the conversation. This is the most important thing."
Tiqi's heart skipped a beat, and his face changed drastically.
If Li Zhen's identity is exposed, all plans will be useless.
