Hundreds of missiles destroyed all important factories in the southern city of Sox, including some important military bases and strategic materials... In other words, after this round of bombing, it will take at least a long time for Sox to recover.
The entire line collapsed...
The Huacang army advanced directly, almost marching straight into the enemy territory...
In the critical situation, Basha had to send a large number of troops to provide support.
At the same time, a special forces unit was formed to carry out a decapitation operation against the rebels in Sox.
The situation was very chaotic... Several senior executives of Sox were assassinated over a period of time, and the land of Sox was in chaos.
The air was filled with smoke.
…
Dozens of days later, the situation gradually came under Basha's control. As he had expected, after Hua Cang's 100,000-man army arrived, they were busy dealing with the rebels who had not yet surrendered and were trying to negotiate, and had no intention of leaving...
…
At the same time, Chai Su received an email from the top management of Sox, which roughly meant that the rebels had lost, the situation was hopeless, and they, Hua Cang, could withdraw.
Are you kidding me?
I worked so hard to help you put down the rebellion, and you just told me to clean up my mess and walk away?
it's out of the question.
Chai Su thought of a reason... Several culprits have not been captured yet, so Hua Cang cannot withdraw his troops now.
…
"A very good reason..."
Basha sighed.
Sox is now practically torn apart by the battle... If the war isn't resolved quickly, all sorts of people will pop up, and by then he won't be able to control them...
"Negotiation... this is the only way we can do it now. I hope their conditions are not too extreme."
"Your Majesty, do you really want to do this?"
"I don't want the kingdom my father worked so hard to build to be destroyed in my hands!"
Basha said softly.
"Capture Mailer and the others alive as soon as possible... I hope to have some leverage at the negotiation table."
"yes!"
Basha was only thirty-five years old... This was an absolutely young age. Being able to become king at this age, he had reason to be proud... But this did not mean that he was a fool. His younger brother, too, was simply dominated by the desire for power.
When the news that Sox was going to negotiate with Hua Cang was released, the senior officials of Luca could not help but frown after hearing it.
I'm here fighting for you, and you're off to negotiate?
Such an unreliable wartime ally... Richards could only pinch his nose and shake his head.
"The Atlan Empire sent a letter... The general message was that we should continue the fight and not accept any conditions from Hua Cang."
Richards' expression turned slightly cold after hearing this.
"When did it become Atlan's turn to dictate matters regarding my Southeast Continent?"
It's not that we've turned our backs on each other. We're not fools, and we can see through a lot of things. It's just for the sake of profit. Continuing the fight... Haha, you make it sound so easy. Sox has decided to negotiate. If successful, both sides will call a ceasefire. Will Luca continue to fight then?
What a joke.
Huacang's two-front war had beaten Luca into a pulp. If coupled with naval power... or even those terrifying missiles, Richards deeply doubted whether Luca could hold out for three days.
"Then we..."
"Negotiations...three-party negotiations. In this way, Hua Cang cannot go too far at the negotiation table."
This is also an important negotiation that will determine the future structure of the Southeast Continent... In a sense, by first proposing negotiations... they are already the losing party.
The main reason was that Richards was also afraid. Huacang's wealth was beyond their imagination. If the war dragged on... the economies of their two countries would completely collapse.
This was the worst-case scenario... Richards couldn't guarantee that his people wouldn't be furious and kick him off the throne afterwards.
…
The order to cease fire was quickly passed down.
Chai Su was naturally willing to cease fire...as long as the conditions he wanted could be met, otherwise if the negotiations broke down, the fighting would have to continue.
The negotiation took place in the conference hall of Huacang's tooling department.
The highest authorities of the three parties gathered here for fierce verbal negotiations.
"Isn't your appetite a bit too big, Lord Chai Su?"
Richards carefully read the agreement in front of him and said calmly.
Basha simply handed the agreement to his entourage, and his men talked about it.
"What? Open all markets... implement a low-tariff policy..."
In order to protect their own commercial trade, each kingdom generally implemented tariff policies to prevent foreign goods from being dumped in their own country.
This is also because Huacang is very confident in its own technology... otherwise it would not have been so keen on having both countries open all markets and lower tariffs.
And there are also war reparations, 78 billion for Sox and 80 billion for Luca.
This is definitely a huge amount of compensation for both countries. You should know that the annual income of the two countries is only more than 200 billion. Hua Cang's request is undoubtedly an exorbitant amount.
But they had no choice but to accept it.
If you are not as strong as others, you will have no say at the negotiation table.
Chai Suqing coughed.
"This is Hua Cang's greatest tolerance..."
"If you two have no objections...please sign it."
Richards and Basha looked at each other.
"We have a condition... I wonder if Lord Chai Su can agree to it."
"What conditions?"
Chai Su became interested.
"Join the alliance."
"Join the alliance?"
Chai Su repeated it, feeling that it made some sense.
"Is it because of Atlan?"
The two nodded. The pressure Atlan put on them was no less than that of Hua Cang, and even more. This behemoth had now set its sights on the Southeast Continent.
The current Southeast Continent... also needs a person in power who has a say. Hua Cang's strength has convinced them. The alliance is headed by Hua Cang, and they have no objection to jointly resist the pressure from Atlan.
Moreover, they have witnessed Huacang's development speed... If one day, Huacang may really lead them to the world stage.
The Southeast Continent has always been a relatively backward continent in the human world. If it can truly go global and join the alliance, what does it matter if it sacrifices some interests?
Imbalance of power.
This is now a big problem for this alliance... Huacang alone has the ability to inflict heavy damage on other kingdoms. Luca and Sox still have concerns in this regard. They are afraid that when Huacang's strength reaches a certain level, Sox and Luca will likely become two major cities in Huacang.
Chai Su was naturally aware of their concerns...Alex and Wuxi Kingdom had the same concerns before, but the roles had changed now.
"Are Wuxi Kingdom and Alex strong?"
Chai Su asked.
The two were stunned at first, then suddenly understood.
