There were thousands of them, but after the soldiers and officers on the front line tested the muskets, they felt that there was no field artillery that could be operated by four people that was powerful and had a long range, so they simply gave them all to the arsenal of the War Department to be smelted and made into field artillery.

Immediately afterwards came the news of a sharp rise in the bond market. The bond market, which had been trading at a discount of 25%, suddenly jumped back to a 10.5% discount. This was already the number before the bond price fell, and it continues to rise.

Zhang Cheng neither chose to sell nor buy. It was really because he didn't have much funds. He only had tens of thousands of gold coins at home.

Zhang Cheng thought that if the Niu Kingdom and the Eagle Kingdom did not want to destroy the country this time, they would probably choose to cede territory and pay compensation. This is also the normal state of war, or in other words: surrender and lose half.

The battle lines that could still be maintained by defending the city fell one after another after the Chicken Kingdom added siege artillery. Not only did the cities fall, but also the main forces newly deployed to the battlefield by the Ox and Eagle countries.

The standing troops of the two countries are not at the same level as the large number of peasant soldiers recruited during the war.

After the defeat of the musketry troops of the Eagle Kingdom, which wanted to use new weapons to make a comeback, it is estimated that there are not many standing troops left in the country. They cannot defend the city and cannot fight in the field. If they do not surrender, they will not even have the chance to come back.

.

Just as Zhang Cheng guessed, after the defeat of the new firearms force, the Eagle Nation put peace negotiations on the agenda. On the front line, it also reached a ceasefire agreement with the Chicken Nation.

As for the Cow Country, it really has a bad temper. It still chooses to resist the attack of the Chicken Country. In other words, it will fight after repeated defeats. In fact, the high-level officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the two countries have actually contacted each other in private, but they are not willing to surrender.

The conditions have never been negotiated - the Niu Kingdom has decided to admit the fact, that is, it acquiesces to the territory currently occupied by the Chicken Kingdom, but will no longer cede the territory, and can pay appropriate compensation to redeem the nobles among the prisoners of war.

The Chicken Country, which felt that it had a chance to win, was willing to cede land and pay compensation to almost half of the Cow Country. The reason was that it had been the inherent territory of the Chicken Country since ancient times. As for the amount of compensation, it also referred to the contracts signed with the Cow Country over the years.

After adding up the various reparation treaties, the interest of more than a hundred years was added. At least the cabinet of Chicken Country felt that this armistice condition was reasonable and reasonable.
