The Harken Gate on the border between the Empire and Liber is experiencing a tense atmosphere that has never been seen since the Hundred Days War. Through the human noose, the Harken gate, which was urgently closed, was facing the iron torrent of the Imperial Army at this moment. All kinds of tanks and armored tanks are lined up. There are several huge exhaust pipes behind each tank, and thick white steam is constantly emerging from it. And immediately after the tank that cleared the way, was the empire’s famous third mech division that made the enemy fearful.
The platooned tanks seemed to have no intention of continuing to invade, but the noisy steam mechanism did not shut down either, and maintained a very threatening posture that could continue to fight at all times. A middle-aged officer wearing a blindfold came forward with a few guards-judging from the pattern on his clothes and the star printed on his chest, this man must be the commander of this army, "one-eyed" X Vandel.
And above the city gate, the one who glared at the commander from a distance was General Morgan, the former commander of the Kingdom Army stationed at the gate of Harken. Because of his anger, his voice trembled with anger, "Can you explain! Lieutenant General Vandel! Why did the Imperial Army appear here at this time! Wouldn't you say that you forgot the non-aggression treaty you just signed? ?"
"General Morgan, I think we should be the one who wants an explanation." Faced with this angry accusation, Sykes calmly retorted: "The guidance equipment in the southern part of the Imperial Capital was all I can’t work anymore, and various anomalies continue to appear. This must be caused by a strange thing that suddenly appeared in your country’s airspace. Can you explain this statement?"
"You..." General Morgan gritted his teeth, "Do you want to take advantage of it to come in!"
"How is it possible? We didn't mean it." Sykes continued unhurriedly. "We received a report that a transnational criminal organization caused this anomaly in your country... as a non-war treaty. The allies of China, we hope to be able to contribute... this is what the imperial government meant."
"It sounds good." Morgan snorted coldly. "Then you should explain, what is going on with these steam tanks? Why does your country still have old tanks that have been eliminated many years ago? Why such things. Will be dispatched here under such circumstances!"
"This is a military secret, please forgive me for saying no comment." General Morgan became more and more angry, but Sykes's voice had some relaxed and cheerful meaning, "but there is a tank that can move normally. Isn’t it helpful for your country to tide over this difficult situation and stabilize domestic sentiments? My government’s painstaking efforts, I hope you can understand."
"Um..." The old general was speechless for a while. How did General Morgan not know the true meaning of these high-sounding words? Although it sounds beautiful, the hidden ambition to take advantage of Libel can't be hidden. If the Imperial Army is really allowed to enter, then in fact within Libel's territory, only the Imperial Army will have the power of the real army. At that time, Libel was actually a lamb to be slaughtered. As long as the other party changed his words, he could directly occupy Libel.
Fortunately, the temporary maintenance plan of the Harken Gate came in handy as soon as it was completed-it took Dr. Russell and other engineers a lot of time. The outer armor of the Harken Gate is more than ten times thicker than that of a heavy tank, and the power mechanism is also designed for guidance. It is indeed laborious to add a human noose. Fortunately, this project was just completed not long ago. At this moment, even the Imperial Army was unable to break through the tightly closed Harken gate.
However, the urgent need is resolved, what should we do next? General Morgan's frowning brows could not be released. If it was just a mecha division, relying on the defensive power of the Harken Gate, it could still handle it. But once it starts, the empire will definitely not stop at this time, and then start a full-scale war on the grounds of border conflicts-Cassius once took advantage of the weakness that people have no idea of the air force and completed " The miracle of "creating a class of arms" repelled the imperial army. Today, the imperial army has learned from it, and the three fronts of sea, land and air are fully developed, and Libel's resources are far inferior to this powerful neighbor. Under such circumstances, if there is another full-scale war, will there be miracles?
"General Morgan, you have worked hard." Just as the old general was thinking hard, a female voice who shouldn't have been here suddenly sounded, distracting him-looking back, it turned out to be Princess Kolotia. Looking at himself with a smile, "Leave it to me next."
"What... Your Highness, why are you... It's too dangerous here..."
"General Morgan, my grandmother has entrusted me with full authority for this negotiation...I will take care of it." Kolotia patted the old general on the shoulder, "Although I am far from mature enough now... but as a king Madam, now is the time for me to come forward and fulfill my obligations."
"His Royal Highness..." Seeing that the once confused and bewildered girl is now in a generous appearance, the old general said with satisfaction, "Okay, okay... But according to the current situation, the other party may attack at any time. Please do. Be prepared, once the situation is out of control, immediately return to the fortress."
"Oh..." Seeing General Morgan, who had ordered something to the incoming person, gave him a fierce look and then retreated. Sykes still looked like Gujing Wubo, "It seems that the negotiation object has changed. Well. Judging from your clothes and conversation, you must be a distinguished person."
"Meeting for the first time. I am Kolotia von Osserys, the prince-daughter of the Liberian kingdom. The famous name of "one-eyed", even in Liber, I have heard of it. "Klotia's words and etiquette are impeccable, and there is a vague majesty in his words-it is this majesty that has moved the face of Sykes, who has maintained a high-cold posture before- -"So that's the case... Your Royal Highness the Queen is rude. "
It's a bit troublesome... Sykes thought about it a little bit in his heart.
If the object of negotiation is a warrior like Morgan, it is actually very easy to deal with. After all, although some soldiers are rough and subtle, they all look very rough on the surface. Direct and concise dialogue can convey each other's meaning well. But facing the royal family members, that set of tedious and greedy conversations is inevitable. This is also part of the etiquette. What's more... This hand, whether it is yourself or His Royal Highness, seems to have never expected it.
After thinking of this, Sykes' eyes remained the same, but his palms were secretly clenched-if this incident was not dealt with today, maybe he would have another identity in the historical record: Colotti Queen Ya was a stepping stone when she debuted as a politician.
"I once had the honor to see a picture of His Royal Highness... It seems that it is a little different from my actual appearance..."
