Chapter 782 Alliance Plan
I don't believe Xu Le's side is weak. If they were, how could they have wiped out the beings in the dam before? I witnessed firsthand how powerful the previous Xu Le was, and the dam back then could control the delta region, which speaks volumes about its strength. As for the current Xu Le, I think his strength must be extraordinary as well, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken so easily.
Wu Shuang said, "Regarding the Delta region, I think you can rest assured. Even if the situation there is unified, it will be almost impossible for them to deal with you."
Xu Le asked, "Why?"
Wu Shuang said, "Because everything has its limits. The fact that you let me come here to negotiate with you means that you have already considered the matter of the Delta region. Otherwise, you would not have let me come here at all. As for the Delta region, I'm afraid you would not allow it to continue to exist."
Xu Le smiled slightly, "But no matter what, the Delta region has always been a threat to me. Not to mention that you now have Hangzhou on the axis. If two such large regions unite, wouldn't my small temple be at your mercy?"
Wu Shuang asked, "So what are your plans?"
Xu Le paced around the room, and after circling twice, he said, "I want half of the Delta region."
Wu Shuang frowned. "That's impossible. Let's not even talk about the fact that the entire Delta region isn't ours yet. Even if it were, we wouldn't give you half of it. And how would we divide it? Since you know the situation in the Delta region, you must also understand the distribution of people within it. The three parties divide it up very quickly. Even if you want it, even if we agree, the other party probably won't agree."
Xu Le wasn't in a hurry and said with a smile, "Wait until I finish speaking."
"Um?"
Xu Le said, "What I mean is not half of the troops in the Delta region, but half of the land there."
"Half the land?" I exclaimed in surprise.
I don't quite understand what he wants the land in the delta for. Does he intend to collect resources? Obviously not. Everywhere in the delta region has already been ransacked by the three communities. Almost all usable resources have been taken. There's practically nothing left to look for.
If that's the case, why would Xu Le want half the land?
I'm really torn between these thoughts and my decision.
Before I could even ask, the other party explained, "The existence of the Delta region, from any perspective, is ultimately a threat to our dam. Perhaps after you unify, you can restrain them from expanding, and we can also make contact according to the alliance agreement. However, this is not a long-term solution. One day, conflicts will arise and escalate. Therefore, in order to prevent this process, I must establish a base in the Delta region and have long-term contact and exchanges with the people of the Delta region, including things like production cooperation."
Wu Shuang looked thoughtful, as if he was considering the feasibility of this matter.
Xu Le continued, "There are only two ways to make Delta not be hostile towards us: one is to destroy it, and the other is to become friends. I'm sure you understand these two points better than I do. Once we become friends and partners, I think we won't have to worry about anything anymore. As long as we are alive and there are no conflicts between us, this peace can continue stably for a long time. As for what to do if outsiders come and try to break this peace in the future, I don't need to tell you, you should understand."
Wu Shuang said, "You mean, you want to use a piece of land in exchange for long-term, stable cooperation?"
“That’s exactly what I mean, but the specific ‘operations’ are quite complicated. First of all, the Delta region is not yet unified and is not under your control, which is a troublesome point. If the Delta region were already yours, this plan could start at any time, but now, I have to carefully consider whether this would be beneficial to the dam.”
Wu Shuang said, "Actually, I already learned about the unification issue in the Delta region. Now, Pu Weichao has completely messed things up there. There are three parties, no, four parties, and they are almost just missing a trigger. Whether they succeed or fail basically depends on this point. If they fail, a civil war will break out in the Delta region, and all the community teams will probably suffer heavy losses. If they succeed, everything will be peaceful."
"Do you have a way to succeed?"
Wu Shuang glanced at me and said, "I didn't have a way before, but I do now. And it's very simple."
"Tell me about it," Xu Le said with a laugh.
“It’s a very simple solution. You lend us some people, and then Xiaonan takes them to the Delta region. I’ll then go to Hangzhou and bring some more people over. We can then attack from both sides, and with the resorts acting as inside agents, the other three parties will have virtually no chance to resist. As for the people you take, they can stay in the Delta region and establish a base. That way, the Delta region will be part of yours.”
I was stunned. This was exactly the same plan I had in mind. She really is my wife!
Xu Le said, "You've really got a good plan, getting my people to do things for you."
"Wouldn't this get you the result you want? With a position in the Delta region, you'll be able to see everything happening there," Wu Shuang said with a smile.
"That makes sense, but I still feel like you've tricked me," Xu Le said, tilting his head.
Wu Shuang tapped his fingers on the table. "Whether I tricked you or not, you know very well that. Your strength here must be very powerful, otherwise you wouldn't be so calm. Since you have such great strength, you shouldn't even care about that place in the Delta."
Xu Le shook his head and said, "You don't need to fool me. I think you two know better than anyone how important the Delta region is. Once the Delta region is truly unified, when our two sides cooperate, it will inevitably become the central area. At that time, our trade and cooperation will probably all have to take place there. The fastest development at that time will probably not be our two sides, but the Delta region."
Wu Shuang said, "These are all things to be discussed later. Whether it can be developed is still unknown. There is also a very powerful force in Mingzhu City to the east. The Delta region is so close to Mingzhu City. If the force in Mingzhu City starts to expand, the Delta region will be the first to suffer. So the best way to develop is to counterbalance the force in Mingzhu City."
