Chapter 474 Differences
Because of the negotiations between the two sides, the sound of war came from Oriac, which had been ceased for several days. Although it was just a few shells, it made the Allied forces mess up.
In the following negotiations, the Allied General headed by Esk acknowledged Li Rusong as the mediator of both sides.
But the negotiations were deadlocked from the beginning, and the contradictions were mainly on the territories and war reparations of both sides. Ganrasi and Prussia had to divide national borders based on actual occupation areas and demanded that the Allies pay astronomical war reparations.
The Allied Forces naturally did not want to. They asked the two countries to withdraw from the invading territory and compensate them for their losses!
"Bang!"
Esk slapped the conference table and roared: "Blacklist! This is Hongguoguo's blackmail! You have occupied the French territory and asked us to compensate 400 million silver coins. This is absolutely impossible!"
Sisley was not as angry as Esk and spread his hands and said, "Esk! You should know that this war was not taken up by the Ganli people. It was you who started the war, so war reparations are essential!"
"France will never agree to such unreasonable requests. France still has millions of brave soldiers. At worst, it's a matter of fighting to the death!" Esk shouted as he stared at Sisley's eyes.
Sisley smiled disdainfully and said, "Millions of soldiers? Esk! Stop teasing, will I not know what the situation in France is?
Even if you can send all the breastfeeding children to the battlefield, how can you arm them?
I won't tell me, let the soldiers take the pitchfork and attack Oriac!
Then this is not the weapon of Hades, the Pirates, I'm afraid even a pig can't be stabbed to death!"
Esk was speechless for a while. After several years of war, France sent a large amount of supplies to the battlefield. Domestic prices soared, which had long been full of complaints.
It’s nonsense to recruit millions of soldiers, but it’s possible to recruit more than 100,000 or 200,000. But recruits need training and equipment need to be purchased, and all these require real money.
The French treasury is empty, what should we use to arm these troops? Even if France tightens its belt and arms hundreds of thousands of people, will the Gansil and Orientals give them so long?
I'm afraid the opponent can hit the city of Paris with just one force, but Esk has no confidence to block the Jingbei Army's bombing.
"France will never surrender!" Esk held it in for a long time, then sat back on his seat after only saying a word.
He had just sat down, but a man in a well-equipped military uniform was not going to let him go, saying, "Mr. Esk! The Allies should also fully consider the appeals of our Prussian Kingdom!
We are not as big as the loss of wax silk, and we still need to pay 200 million silver coins, and in addition..."
Hearing this voice, Esk felt a big head. Prussia is different from Ganrasi. This country has a strong folk custom and strong combat power.
France sent troops into Prussia, but was beaten to pieces by the other side. There was a reason why the focus of the war was on Gan Lasi, but Prussia's combat power left a deep impression on them.
The Netherlands was defeated by them. If it weren't for the Prussian war preparations, the Netherlands would have formed an exile government.
When Esk heard the war compensation he wanted, he felt exhausted and wanted to faint immediately and leave this troubled place.
The speech of the representative of Prussia angered the Netherlands. They stood up and argued with reason, denounced Prussia's invasion of their territory without reason.
In such a noisy, the negotiations took two days. The two sides had too many differences and no results were reached.
Li Rusong, who was the mediator in the main position, was a little impatient. He was a little upset when he heard the quarrels for several consecutive days, especially the language used by many representatives, which sounded sleepy.
"Bang!"
"Enough!"
Li Rusong slapped the table and shouted angrily, which immediately calmed the conference room. Everyone's eyes were focused on Li Rusong, wanting to hear what the mediator who had not spoken for the past three days wanted to say.
Li Rusong cleared his throat and said, "Don't you feel embarrassed about your messy quarrels?
Everyone is a person with status. If you have any differences, you should sit down and talk slowly, rather than making noise like a shrew!”
Upon hearing this, everyone showed embarrassment, and Li Rusong scolded everyone in one sentence.
Esk asked in dissatisfaction: "General Li! The greedy man of the raffa, I want our land, I wonder what good idea do you have?"
Li Rusong laughed and said, "It's easy to deal with!"
Easy to deal with?
Esk showed you teasing me, losing a large area of land, which is unacceptable to France. Do the Orientals force the Ganli people to retreat?
Sisley hurriedly said, "General Li! We are the ones who have the advantage, you can't..."
Li Rusong raised his hand to interrupt Sisley, gave him a reassuring look, and said, "Isn't it just a little territorial dispute!
Just give it to the gangs, but it’s been so noisy!”
Esk jumped up directly from the chair and shouted: "Impossible! It would be a mistake to let the Orientals mediate. He and Gan Lasi are allies, so they must have colluded..."
When the other representatives of other countries heard this, their eyes looked at Li Rusong with bad intentions, and they had a little thought of turning around after a disagreement.
Li Rusong did not react much and continued, "Is the colony not good either? The land in the colony is also the land of France, so is it not okay to use the land there to compensate the slime silk?"
As soon as this sentence was said, the whole audience was quiet. No one expected that Li Rusong would come up with such a way. Using the land of the colony to compensate was a good way, looking at Sisley, who was also unresponsive.
"This..., this..." After a long time of grinding, Sisley didn't say a word. Li Rusong's method was unexpected, and he was still calculating the gains and losses of the interests.
Li Rusong clapped his hands, focused everyone's attention on himself, and said, "Of course! The colonies cannot compare with the local area. How much proportion should be used to compensate the occupied land? You still need to discuss a constitution."
Everyone was relieved when they heard this. Li Rusong gave a good idea. As long as the ratio is right, I believe neither party will refuse.
Only Sisley said unwillingly: "General Li! He counterattacked France, Ganlasi paid a huge price. What if the French take back the land and attacked Ganlasi again?"
Esk stopped hearing this, pointing at Sisley and angrily said, "Sisley! Do you think everyone is as despicable and shameless as you are... "
Sisley was willing to suffer a loss, so he immediately scolded him, and he was about to argue again.
Li Rusong slapped the table and snorted coldly, "Hmph! Do you still have me as a mediator in your eyes?"
