Chapter 1227 Parliamentary Republic
In fact, let alone Fisher, even Narga, who came as a middleman, felt that Peter's two conditions were a bit too much, or even too fantastic.
It was not enough to obtain the status of a full citizen and the position of a general. You also wanted to overthrow the Smith royal family? His request was equivalent to pushing all black people except himself to the opposite side.
You have to understand that you are only temporarily holding off the black army's offensive, not suppressing Fisher! Unless you suppress Fisher and make him want to surrender, you can make such a condition.
As the one being beaten, these conditions were somewhat excessive.
But Narga knew in his heart that this was actually the result of Peter's concession.
You know, before this, with the establishment of the Rakshasa Republic, the cadres of the revolutionary army had already called Peter "Your Majesty". In other words, Peter originally wanted to be the king himself.
From this point alone, Narga could confirm that no matter how beautifully and pleasantly Peter spoke about the republic, he probably did not think so in his heart.
Before this, the other party used the concept of republicanism to call on people to follow them and revolt with them.
As a result, things did not go smoothly. After hitting a snag with Fisher, Peter knew that if he wanted to stop the war, he would have to make concessions.
Fisher could not let him be king, and he could not let Fisher be king.
Then let's just stick to the republic forever, no one should be a leader anymore, and propose a parliamentary republic.
Take the current Smith Kingdom for example. To put it bluntly, the country's top leaders form a parliament. They do not want to increase the number of people. The parliament is basically composed of Narga, Peter and Fisher.
Nalgar served as both consul and speaker, handling daily domestic affairs and organizing meetings, while Peter and Fisher served as party leaders of the Rakshasa Republican Party and the Smith Party respectively.
When encountering important matters, a parliament is convened, and the three people discuss and finally vote.
There were exactly three of them, so the result could be easily determined by voting.
There is also a small bright spot here, that is Narga, the archon.
At first glance, he seemed to be the biggest winner, holding great power and having the best of both worlds. But in fact, the domestic resources and real power were in the hands of the two party leaders, Peter and Fischer, and his real power was the smallest.
Rounding it off, it's equivalent to being a capable worker...
Of course, Nargar didn't really care about this, after all, the job of the King's Hand was pretty much the same.
But the parliamentary republic system proposed by Peter made Narga's eyes light up.
At the same time, it also made him a little unable to see through the leader of the revolutionary army in front of him.
He always felt that the other person's wisdom was sometimes high and sometimes low, which made him confused.
At this moment, looking at Fisher who was cursing, Narga sighed in his heart. He knew that it was time for him to play a role.
"Sir Peter, I want to talk to Sir Fisher alone."
Hearing this, Peter nodded directly and then avoided the question. This was what they had discussed before they came out to talk.
Afterwards, facing Narga's invitation, although Fisher was full of indignation, considering the current situation, he decided to give Narga some face and walked to the side with him...
"Sir Fisher, you should be aware of the current situation. It is not a good thing to continue the stalemate. If the greenskins attack, your troops will be the first to suffer."
"Then there is no way I can accept this crappy condition!"
Could he not have figured out this situation? If he hadn't figured it out, he wouldn't have come to negotiate! But if the result of the negotiation was to directly steal his throne, then there's no point in talking! At worst, no one would live!
Narga really could understand Fisher's mentality at the moment.
From Fisher's point of view, this country itself was founded by their ancestors and has always been ruled by their Smith royal family.
As a result, you stand up to rebel against them, and halfway through the rebellion, you feel that you can't do it anymore. You still want them to give up their royal power and live with you on an equal footing?
This kind of thing, let alone Fisher, would probably be considered outrageous by any black person in the Smith Kingdom. It was outrageous to the extreme! Fortunately, Peter managed to even the situation before, otherwise it would have been even more outrageous.
Looking at Fisher's condition, Narga sighed in his heart, but still adjusted his attitude and tried to persuade him.
It is impossible to do everything according to Peter's conditions, and Fisher will just turn the table in the end.
The focus of this persuasion was to let Fisher know that the so-called parliamentary republic did not mean that he had completely lost his power.
Facing Narga, Fisher was still relatively patient.
After listening to this, Fisher's mood eased a little, but he was still not happy.
Originally, he was the only one who had the final say, but now he was going to have to hold a vote. What the hell was this? Nargar was also a smart man. He saw that Fisher was loosening up at a glance and immediately started talking again.
"Look, if you don't agree, how long will it take for the two sides to fight like this? Even if there is a winner, there will definitely be heavy casualties. In the end, won't it be our own national strength that will be damaged?"
"You nodded in agreement. At least the two sides don't have to continue fighting. This matter is beneficial and harmless no matter how you look at it."
Narga's words were actually a euphemism, but Fisher understood the underlying meaning.
Even if he disagreed, there was nothing he could do about the Rakshasa Republic. If he agreed, there would at least be some benefits. To put it bluntly, it was that simple.
Fisher agreed with Narga's words, but that didn't mean he would give in.
"Let's not talk about that for now. It's impossible to liberate all the slaves. The most I can accept is to pardon the slaves in those two cities and give them official citizenship."
Hearing this, Narga nodded.
"This can be discussed. I'll go talk to them later."
Fisher's request was within Narga's expectations.
Freeing all the slaves was equivalent to making Fisher the enemy of all the black slave owners. Without the support of the black slave group, what would he use to fight Peter? How stupid would Fisher have to be to agree? After that, Narga said a few more words to Fisher and turned around to talk to Peter, but was stopped by Fisher.
"Sir Narga, let me confirm first, which side are you on?"
The royal city fell, and Narga was brought here by Peter, which made Fisher think more.
If Narga and Peter are on the same side, when the parliament is established and voting is carried out, every time it will be Peter and Narga's two votes against his one vote, then what's the point of his doing!
Narga knew what Fisher was worried about, and he showed great calmness about it.
"I only stand on the side of national development. I will stand on whichever side is beneficial to national development."
He didn't take a stand directly, but Fisher could accept this answer...
