Chapter 407 We Are Not Fence-Sitters
Zhang Jingyi's words made Padi Tu stunned.
Lying Rabbit: "Huh? You really understand our culture."
Zhang Jingyi: "I've said it before, I have a Chinese heart."
Lying Rabbit: "I really want to know, what exactly do you mean by increasing trade exchanges?"
Zhang Jingyi: "I will teach you how to farm. You can harvest 1,000 kilograms per acre!"
"what?"
The lying rabbit was shocked: "One acre of land yields a thousand kilograms? Really? Is this possible?"
"Of course it's possible." Zhang Jingyi: "Even several thousand kilograms. I will introduce you to good varieties and advanced planting techniques to ensure that your country's food shortage problem is solved. Within a few hundred years, it will not be a problem for your country's population to double to more than one billion."
Lying Rabbit: “!!!”
What is this called? This is called hitting the pain point directly.
The people of Rabbit Country love farming the most. When they hear that they can increase farmland production, they are happier than anything else.
Ugumantai's promise to give up control of Central Asia is nothing in front of the Rabbit People.
Lying Rabbit: "Don't lie to me. The consequences of lying to me will be very serious."
Zhang Jingyi: "A gentleman does not break his word. If I break my word, the Rabbit Kingdom will have a legitimate reason to attack me and can send a million soldiers to attack me."
The rabbit's eyes lit up.
Yes, the most important thing for the Rabbit Country is "having a legitimate reason to send troops". As long as they find an excuse to send troops, they can raise a legitimate army.
The other party understands this very well. This person really understands the culture of the Eastern Tang Dynasty. He doesn't just understand it a little bit, but he understands it very deeply.
I don’t know why, but Paditu feels that he can trust this person.
Although this person does not have a rabbit head, I always feel that he is one of us. This feeling is very subtle.
The lying rabbit made a decision instantly.
He placed the two crystal balls side by side in front of him, put away the frivolous expression on his face, put on the formal diplomatic etiquette between countries, and said to the crystal balls very seriously: "I understand! Regarding the civil war in your country, our East Rabbit Tang has already known about it, and we deeply regret it. Our country has always stood on the side of peace, maintained contact with all parties concerned including Ugumantai and Elizabeth, persisted in persuading peace and promoting talks, and actively carried out shuttle diplomacy... All efforts conducive to the peaceful resolution of the crisis should be supported. This is our authoritative position and fundamental principle on the issue of the Magic Kingdom."
Ugumenthai: “Shit, what is he talking about?”
The leader of the Glorious Knights was sweating profusely: "He seems to be talking nonsense, saying a lot of words, but none of them make sense."
The Crouching Rabbit continued, "On the issue of the civil war in the Magic Kingdom, our country must be a bridge between differences and contradictions, an advocate of seeking common ground while reserving differences, a defender of common security, and a builder of lasting peace. I hope that you will also focus on the overall situation and the long-term, and do more things that are conducive to reconciliation and peace, rather than the opposite..."
Ugumantai: "Shit! Turn off this damn crystal ball. I don't want to see the bunny man again."
The crystal ball is off...
Ugumantai was in a bad mood: "At this point, we can only ask for help from the country we least want to ask for help."
The Blackhearted Archmage whispered, "Rhodes, the country of knights?"
"Yes!" Ugumantai sighed, "The country of knights."
The Kingdom of Knights and the Kingdom of Magic, that's a feud!
The great chaos in Middle-earth that year, which prompted the elves to flee and live in seclusion, was caused by the Kingdom of Knights and the Kingdom of Magic. The war between the two countries also attracted the participation of the Desert Kingdom, a fence-sitter, and eventually Middle-earth was in ruins.
Ugumantai really didn't want to ask the Kingdom of Knights, but...
At this point, it seemed that he had no choice but to speak. He was about to ask someone to contact the Kingdom of Knights when suddenly a diplomat came up and said, "Your Majesty, we have received a call from the Desert Kingdom."
"what?"
Ugumantai Daqi: "Desert Kingdom? Why are you contacting us at this time?"
The diplomat handed over the crystal ball...
The communication was connected.
The face of the Pharaoh appeared in the ball.
Ugumantai didn't like this fence-sitter, but at this moment he could only force a smile: "Pharaoh! Long time no see."
Pharaoh chuckled: "I came to contact you this time just to tell you something..."
Ugumantai: “?”
Pharaoh: "I swear in the name of the God of the Desert that the army of the Kingdom of Knights will never cross the desert to help you! No matter how many people they come, my Desert Kingdom will stop them, even if it costs me my life."
Ugumantai was slightly stunned, and then he became furious: "You! You son of a bitch, you are on the side of the impostor? The Desert Kingdom has always been a fence-sitter. What's wrong with it this time?"
"Fence-sitters?" Pharaoh laughed self-deprecatingly. "We were indeed fence-sitters before. All our wavering was because we wanted the country to become better. But now, we don't need to waver anymore. We have found a way to make the country rich and the people strong. We don't need to go back and forth to seek a little bit of petty profit. We will defend this hard-earned hope with our lives."
Ugumantai: “!!!”
Pharaoh: "We will let you know that the Desert Kingdom is not a fence-sitter. As long as we find the right path, our steps will be incomparably firm, and our will will be stronger than yours."
The crystal ball hung up.
It seemed that Pharaoh did not want to waste any more time talking.
Ugumantai was furious: "Ahhhhh! How can this be possible? How can this be possible."
Blackhearted Archmage: "Gather all the nobles and mobilize all the troops that can be mobilized. At this point, we have no choice but to fight."
-
The Restoration Army split into two groups and continued to advance towards the Magic King's Capital...
The advance was unstoppable and we never encountered any decent resistance.
The people on Ugumantai's side gave up sporadic resistance and withdrew all their forces towards the royal capital.
The great nobles and slave owners were all selling their belongings to organize their own armies.
All the prisoners in the jail were released, each of them was given a weapon and asked to go to the battlefield to "redeem merits with combat". Bounty hunter mercenaries hired for money also gathered from various places. These armies of varying quality extorted and extorted in the streets and alleys of the magic capital, causing chaos and misery for the people.
There were also a large number of slaves who were forced by their slave owners to join the army. They were reluctant in their hearts, but if they did not come, they would be killed immediately. The supervision team was watching them, so they had to come even if they did not want to.
The army gathered madly.
This time Ugumantai no longer used elite troops, but instead recruited all sorts of miscellaneous troops. The total number of assembled troops exceeded 30,000, and there were not enough military camps, so he had to let them camp on the streets.
There are tents everywhere!
Every street and alley in the Magic Capital was crowded with ragtag troops. Many of the ragtag troops with poor military discipline had robbed civilians' homes. They also fought against each other for territory, causing quarrels and fights to be heard in the streets every day.
In this atmosphere...
The Restoration Army is getting closer.
