Seeing his cousin's almost distorted face, Frederick burst into tears, "What's wrong? Kroof, shouldn't we pay some remuneration for us to build a prosperous and prosperous city of Shuangdui for us? Or do you think the remuneration is too high? No, no, I think 30 million kroner is not expensive. If they want all 40 million kroner, I would agree."

Kruff stared at the handsome and elegant cousin in front of him. He could not understand how he was thinking at this moment. Could it be that he could not see through such a simple situation and had to give the 30 million kroners to the Komini for free?! Did his level of understanding appear to be a huge deviation in thinking that the Komini cannot win Shuangdui City? If it were the Komini family, it would not work. But with the cooperation of his own 300,000 troops, Kruff firmly believed that he could definitely conquer Shuangdui Ji, unless his side deliberately dragged Shuangdui Ji's back. But Kruff did not think this was a good idea, especially when choosing this opportunity.

Frederick finally smiled. The charming smile on his handsome face was enough to charm any girl. Why is Frederick unwilling to talk about marriage until now has always been a concern for many people. At this time, Croof turned a blind eye to a smile comparable to a girl. At this time, he was completely defeated by his cousin.

Turning around and patting his cousin's shoulder, Frederick pursed his charming lips and smiled slightly: "Crove, believe me, Frederick will always seek the best interests for our Luzon at the lowest cost, so please rest assured."

The change in the situation in Northern Luzon has always been concerned about Wufeng's heart, but in this situation, the emperor must gain a foothold, and Wufeng is also speculating that when his confrontation with Situ Tai will turn into a real war, and it still needs to wait now, but this opportunity is difficult to infer the specific time from the current situation. He neither dared to easily transfer the Third and Fifth Legion to the Eastern Continent, nor was he willing to withdraw the First Legion from Kansai. After all, the Third Fifth Legion once served as the main force and Situ Tai.

In the face of fire, the First Legion would have to stay on the front line as the general reserve team to press the line. Even from Kansai or Heshuo front line to Northern Luzon, it would take at least nearly twenty days to transport tens of thousands of people from the fast transportation camp. Moreover, with the current transportation capacity of the transportation camp, it would be impossible to transport a legion continuously to two thousand miles away at once. The most important thing is that Wufeng believed that as long as the Second Legion and the Indian and German Legion were properly handled, they should be able to defend with three strong cities for a period of time until reinforcements arrived.

Wufeng has always been skeptical of Frederick's strategic intentions. Wufeng also communicated with Ling Tianfang many times on this issue and studied the situation in Luzon with the heads of the two major intelligence agencies, but he was unable to understand Frederick's intention to make such a large-scale military mobilization. If Frederick attacked the east and west, it seemed to make some sense. However, after the Pasha people were recaptured by the Luzons, they had already re-invested the deployment along the river. Kutuzov, who served as the main general of the defense line, named him himself, and was a scheming and quite calm general. If the Luzons wanted to make plans easily, they were afraid of

It is difficult to work. It seems that Frederick could only join forces with the Comineans to invade the north, but all signs indicate that the Luzons' military preparations have been completed, but they have not entered the battle position for a long time. Instead, the Comineans came from behind and had completed all preparations. They gathered heavy troops along the Green Sea Marsh north of Shuangdui, preparing to bypass the Green Sea Marsh north of Shuangdui, and there seems to be signs of invading the west after taking the Shuangdui. These abnormal situations are all reflected in Wufeng's hands. What is Frederick's idea? Is he really reaching a common agreement with the Luobei people to send troops together and waiting for the Luobei people?

However, things have developed to this point, and Wufeng cannot help but make the worst plans. After strictly demanding that Bai Yinren must unconditionally withdraw 20,000 infantry and quickly go south to reinforce the situation in the increasingly tightening situation in Northern Luzon, he withdrew the three main divisions of the First Legion from Guanxi County to Queqiao Pass and Yangmakou, and mobilized the chariots and horses of the transportation camp to this area, in case that if the situation in Northern Luzon is critical, the three divisions can be deployed to Northern Luzon within ten days.

If the two legions could not defend for ten days, Helianbo and Hu Yanqiu were afraid that they had no face to see him. Wufeng firmly believed this. In addition, Wufeng also drew a division from the Jeroke Legion to move to Qingyang, which could deal with unexpected problems and prevent Luo Beiren from actually crossing the Tengger Grassland from harassing the northwest. Although this deployment seemed a bit negative and passive, it was not very consistent with Wufeng's style of acting, but it was the biggest adjustment that Wufeng could make at present.

While carrying out large-scale military deployment adjustments, various negotiation activities in the imperial capital are still in full swing. Su Qin and Wang Liao, on behalf of Xijiang, conducted a series of tug-of-war negotiations with the officials of the imperial senators and Situ Biao, respectively. The negotiations with the imperial senators and nobles were of little significance. They were in their bones against Wu Feng's involvement in the heart of the Central Plains. However, in this case, it was undoubtedly unrealistic to let Wu Feng withdraw from Heshuo and Beiyuan. They had no strength to ask Wu Feng to withdraw immediately from this area that had actually been assimilated by Xijiang, and could only bargain with Xijiang for the period of withdrawal from these two counties in stages.

The negotiations with Situ Biao are undoubtedly much more real. Situ Biao also clearly revealed the idea of ​​Wuhu and Yishi's intention to occupy Quanzhou, extend its power to the East Ocean, and recapture Jiujiang and then seize Huzhou. He also asked Xijiang to provide considerable support for strategic materials, especially in terms of weapons and armor. At the same time, he also hoped to be able to borrow from the Bank of Xijiang to help carry out this military operation. In return, Situ Biao would fully support Wufeng to continue to control Heshuo and Beiyuan, and after controlling Jiujiang and Huzhou, it would exert military pressure on Situ Tai and Yishi's group, which would facilitate Wufeng to carry out military operations against Situ Tai in the north. In fact, this is a military alliance. Li Wufeng and Situ Biao both sides supported each other's military operations against Situ Tai. The ultimate goal of this military operation would point to Situ Tai.

Taking a large stack of negotiation minutes on the desk, Wufeng sighed helplessly, "Oh, this is the result of our negotiations. Those nobles and veterans really don't know what they think. Do they really think that if Heshuo and Beiyuan are handed over to the Central Committee of the Empire, they can manage it? What a joke. We have spent so much effort and so much financial resources to clean up this land. They asked us to hand it over to them. There is such a cheap thing in the world!"

"But there are too many such people in this world. In their minds, it seems that many things should belong to them innately. They do not need to pay anything and should have and enjoy them. If they violate their interests, they will look unyielding. In fact, there is no way to change this reality inside." Su Qin shrugged and looked indifferent. "From the subordinates' eyes, negotiating with these guys is simply playing the piano with a bull. If it were not for not wanting to arouse their overreaction, the subordinates wanted to announce the end of the negotiation three days ago. This is also good, and it also seems that our attitude is sincere and gives them enough face. They have found a way out and finally have an explanation. Humph, they gradually withdrew within three to five years, and they don't think about how much changes will be in three years. Whether this empire still exists or not is still an unknown."

When he talked about the last sentence, there was a hint of melancholy in Su Qin's words, but Wufeng sighed with his palm: "The wind is always blown away by the rain and wind. What should come will always come, and what should go will always go. Whether it is the history of the mainland or the history of our Tang people, isn't it composed of the process of prosperity, decline and overturning of dynasties one after another? There is nothing wrong with this. Only with destruction can one live. Only by absorbing the essence of old things and abandoning their dross can one witness a more glorious page of history."

Seeing that his two bosses seemed to be a little immersed in the sighs of history, Wang Liao, with a solemn face, didn't make much comments, but kept flipping through the documents in his hands. This was the intentional alliance clause signed by him and Situ Biao's subordinates to help Hu Tingzhi. The content was very rich and involved all aspects. It seemed that His Highness the King of Qin was in a very good mood today, but it seemed that the news from Luzon was not very optimistic. I don't know why His Highness was so happy.

"Well, okay, let's get back to the point. Wang Liao and Situ Biao are over. Let's talk about the specific conditions." It seemed that he had missed the topic again, and Wufeng also brought the topic back in time.

"According to the request of Your Highness, Hu Tingzhi, the first subordinate of Situ Biao, also sat down to have the most detailed negotiations and reached some initial opinions. However, his subordinates thought that we gave Situ Biao too much, and Situ Biao could give us too little, so he did not agree with this package of plans." Wang Liao first expressed his attitude, but some terms were directly indicated by Wu Feng. As he himself was just an executor, he could not change these conditions and could only use these conditions to fight for more benefits for his side.

Wufeng naturally knew that the diplomat did not agree with some of his specific guidance terms, but he did not care. Having objections could only show that the perspectives were different and could not prove anything else, because in general, Wufeng and the foreign affairs department had the same views, which was just a matter of degree.
