Chapter 407: Get rich overnight!
The meaning of this sentence is already obvious. The beginning of a military exercise is a time limit. If they do not give an answer within this time limit, then the military exercise may not be a military exercise.
Fortunately for PLANT and the Eurasian Federation, one is in the universe and the other is thousands of miles away from Orb. Even if the war starts again, it will not be able to affect them immediately.
But the Atlantic Federation is not the same. Once the war starts, Orb's fleet can invade Alaska immediately. Although the Atlantic Federation's forces on earth are not afraid of Orb, the Atlantic Federation is not monolithic. Son, the internal fighting is not completely over yet.
Today's meeting ended at this moment, and everyone dispersed and returned to the hotel. Although the peace talks are not over yet, what happened today needs to be reported to the country. No matter what the outcome is, after this peace talks meeting, the world The landscape will undergo huge changes, and they also need to make some preparations in advance.
...
“This brat is really a big talker!” Siegel Klein looked at the information sent back by the delegation and rubbed his temples uncomfortably.
"Father, what happened?" Lux asked softly.
"Look, you've found a good man." Sigurd Klein handed the PAD to Lux, his tone as resentful as possible.
"Haha, this is indeed Yang Hui's style." Lux chuckled after reading the news. Yang Hui has never been the one who suffered. Many people think that Orb's fall caused Yang Hui to suffer a big loss, but None of them knew that this was the road that Yang Hui paved for them, and he was prepared for this.
Orb did not fall, and the Earth Army and ZAFT did not use nuclear weapons. How could he open his mouth like a lion?
“But I’m afraid he will be disappointed this time. It is impossible for us to agree to his conditions.” Siegel Klein said melancholy. If it is personal property, Siegel Klein will All the property of the Lain family can be packaged and given to him, and it can be used as his daughter's dowry and his own pension insurance.
But Boyaz Fortress is one of ZAFT's important military fortresses and the front line of contact with the Earth Army. It is impossible to give it to Orb. Even if he agrees, the Supreme Council will not agree. It is impossible for all ZAFT soldiers and citizens to agree.
"Indeed... I think it is acceptable." Lux said to Sigel Klein.
"..." Sigurd Klein covered his face and was speechless. Women in love were poisoned. He believed that even if Yang Hui wanted the entire PLANT, Lacus would package it and give it to Yang Hui.
But this time, he really misunderstood Lux, at least not entirely.
“Father, in my opinion, Boyaz Fortress is important to ZAFT, but it is not so important that it is indispensable. With PLANT’s ability, it is not difficult to build another one using asteroids, but if In order to cherish the Boyaz Fortress, we lost the opportunity to have good relations or even peace with Orb, which is not worth the loss."
Sigur Klein feels that Lux is right, and Orb is currently. The power displayed is really terrifying. PLANT is also in panic now and it is not appropriate to start a war again. No matter who the opponent is, it is worth exchanging a fortress for peace.
But...it's just such a reason. It's okay to convince the representatives of the Supreme Council, but it's too weak to convince the army and the people.
At the same time, PLANT's materials and funds are not necessarily enough. Don't forget that PLANT still owes Orb a [Heliopolis], and there is a list that makes me feel sick just looking at it.
"So we need to work hard on the materials and funds for compensation." After listening to Sigel Klein's concerns, Lux said, "I know Yang Hui and the others. Their goal was Boyaz Fortress from the beginning. The resource compensation is not that important. I am sure that their bottom line is only a quarter of the requirement, so just let the representatives talk boldly and confidently." "Huh? Is that possible now? There is a lot of waste waiting to be done, and it seems that a new army will be built on a large scale, and the resources required are not a small amount."
"Father, you know, I know, and Yang Hui naturally knows this condition. PLANT cannot agree, and agreeing will shake the country. He cannot unreasonably make demands that we cannot agree to. Therefore, Boyaz Fortress and supplies must be acquired one at a time. The main goal must be achieved, and the secondary goals must be achieved. The range of activities is very large. I roughly calculated that a quarter of the resources required are just within the acceptable range of PLANT."
Lux is not a professional politician, nor is she. He just has excellent qualities, potential and skills, but during this period of time, he followed Sigel Klein to deal with internal affairs of PLANT, which can be regarded as some contact, so he has a general understanding of the domestic situation, so he can roughly estimate What are the limits of PLANT?
Sigur Klein was silent after hearing this. Everything Lux said was correct and difficult to refute, but...
"You are doing this...not just for PLANT, right?"
"Father, you are worrying too much."
"Really?"
"Yes. ”
The seriousness and maturity are gone, and the big watery eyes are blinking, cute and cute.
"Alas..." Siegel Klein covered his face. There are only two fathers and daughters here. Isn't it necessary to act in denial? "There is another question, how to solve the opposition of ZAFT and the people?" Lux gave Sigel Klein a reason to persuade the Supreme Council, but the Supreme Council was convinced, and ZAFT and the people did not accept it. If this decision is forcibly passed, ZAFT and the people's trust and acceptance of the Supreme Council will fall to a freezing point, and every one of them will have to step down.
Sigal Klein doesn't care about this power, but he is afraid that the Sala faction who doesn't know where they are hiding will jump out and cause trouble again, completely destroying the good situation.
"Leave it to me, Father, I will solve this problem."
Lacus has already spoken, Sigel Klein will not ask anymore, Lacus She generally doesn't promise anything to anyone. Once she agrees, she is sure to complete it.
...
On the other side, representatives of the Atlantic Federation also reported the situation back to the mainland. The local leaders were divided into several factions. Although they all cursed Orb Lion, in addition to cursing, they also They framed each other, and the factions to which the responsible representatives belonged were not tough enough, and were even accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason.
There are also people clamoring to destroy Orb's first fleet and directly declare war on Orb. If you can destroy it the first time, you can naturally destroy it the second time.
Such a statement has been attacked by the peace faction again. War maniacs, anti-social, anti-human, world-destroying... As long as it comes to the side, the big label will be slapped on the head of the war faction.
The quarrel lasted until late at night, but failed to produce any results. Those who wanted to fight were just talking loudly, but they did not dare to take action. Those who wanted to negotiate also felt aggrieved and could not accept such harsh conditions.
In the end, the conference dispersed, and the leaders of several major factions gathered together and connected via remote video communication in a secret room. No one could convince anyone, so just ask the people who can decide with one vote.
"Accept Orb's conditions."
"But... in this way, the door of the Atlantic Federation will be completely open to Orb. If Orb wants to attack us, there will be no warning. The defense line is over."
"Orb will not take the initiative to attack us, at least not now. We have to delay it until the results of the research over there are obtained, and Orb can be destroyed with a single hand."
"This...the research there has been going on for decades, and there is no progress at all. Could it be..."
"No."
"Understood."
In this way, the Atlantic Federation has also made a decision to accept Orb's conditions, but it does not accept them in full. Just like Wang Liumei said, The amount of resources can still be discussed.
The Eurasian Federation on the other side is exactly the same as its master. At first, they clamored not to accept it and to fight if they wanted to. Anyway, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so a fight cannot reach them. But I heard that my family After the master accepted it, he could only accept it in frustration.
The general direction was determined, and the next thing was simple. It took about three days of wrangling, and the three parties finally determined the specific amount of resources. Lax’s prediction was right. Orb was right PLANT was indeed not too exploitative and settled on a quarter of the limit. The Atlantic Federation paid for Midway and Hawaii. Although Orb was strong, it did not have the ability to destroy the Atlantic Federation, so it only received half of the proposed amount. , and finally the Eurasian Federation, which is a slaughter. To put it bluntly, it is only half a percent lower.
In general, from this peace negotiation, Orb's gains are mainly the Boyaz Fortress, the territory of Indo-West, the territorial waters and land extending to Midway Island, and Hawaii. There are countless resources. It can be said that he became rich overnight!
Taking resources as an example, it is more than enough to rebuild [Shuguang Society] and [Kaguya], establish three integrated space fleets, and add two more maritime fleets and three MS brigades.
After getting the results, the next step is to be busy. Yang Hui's calculations show that Orb's productivity is now at full capacity. One year is enough to transform all the power in the plan into reality. By then Orb will also have The power to stand on top of the world.
At the same time, a press conference was held for the overall victory of this negotiation to announce the results to the world. With all the changes in life, the people of Orb were naturally excited, as if they had seen Orb's powerful posture; People from the Atlantic Federation and the Eurasian Federation were heartbroken and angry, cursing the government's incompetence; PLANT had Lux doing the work in advance, so there was no overly intense emotion, but there was certainly frustration and unwillingness; there were other forces, Most of them don't care about themselves, and their losses are not big anyway.
However, after the representatives of the other forces returned to their countries, the representatives of the United States of South America quietly stayed and requested to meet and discuss with Yang Hui in private.
"Your Excellency Yang Hui, congratulations to Orb on his comprehensive victory." The representative of the United States of South America congratulated. Not only victory on the battlefield, but also victory in negotiations is the core of Orb's strength. With what Orb has gained so far, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Orb The rise of China is unstoppable.
"Thank you, Your Excellency Anafi, but you are not returning to China at this time, and you still come to me quietly, isn't it to congratulate Orb?"
"Yes, Your Excellency Yang Hui, our country wants to get it Orb’s help”
