In [Pioneer City], the protagonist met an envoy from the Black Fire Ant clan who was escorted back from the front line by the warriors of the Envoy King.
It turned out that after the Divine Envoy King's Army arrived at the territory of the remaining Northern Expeditionary Army, the Northern Expeditionary Army, realizing that something was wrong, hurriedly dispatched troops to confront the Divine Envoy King's Army. Although the Divine Envoy King's Army did not directly take hostile action against them, "蜓" "Eagle" they could clearly see the motive of the God's Envoy King's army in seizing the nearby important territory.
The God Envoy King's army is strong and strong, but it is limited by the diplomatic rules of the civilized ant tribe. In order not to break up with the black fire ant tribe, it cannot directly attack the remaining troops of the Northern Expeditionary Army.
But conversely, the remnants of the Northern Expeditionary Army cannot directly risk the disapproval of the world and take the initiative to provoke the Divine Envoy King's army, and their military strength is not strong enough. They are no match for them if they really want to steal territory from the indigenous ants.
In the end, the Divine Envoy King's Army seized all the reserved territory as scheduled, trapping the remainder of the Northern Expeditionary Army in a small, isolated territory. The situation is very favorable to the Ant Alliance, but very unfavorable to the remaining troops of the Northern Expeditionary Army.
However, the black fire ant clan has a male ant who is stationed in the territory of the remaining Northern Expeditionary Army, which is equivalent to an ambassador. He came to mediate and handed over a very important information package. The frontline commanders had no authority and could only report it. God's messenger king.
The Black Fire Ant Ambassador came directly to [Pioneer City], met with the God Envoy King, and once again submitted his previous information package:
Before winter last year, the Black Fire Ant Clan had promised to help the remnants of the Northern Expeditionary Army expand their territory. Part of the territory currently occupied by the Angel King's Legion was already the land that the Black Fire Ant Clan had promised to hand over to the remnants of the Northern Expeditionary Army.
The information package he provided does seem to be some discussions between the other parties before the Angel King's army sent troops, and it has been approved by the highest authority of the Black Fire Ant Country...
But the protagonist chuckled in his heart. He didn’t want to take that trick. The land you mentioned was previously under the rule of indigenous ants. The Angel King’s Army legitimately took the land from the indigenous ants. Even if what you said is true, Your plan is still in your mind and has not been put into practice. The ones who really occupied this place were the Legion of God's Envoy King. We have shed blood and sweat here. Why do you ask us to evacuate these places! ?
The protagonist sternly rejected the Black Fire Ant Ambassador's request to withdraw the Divine Envoy King's army and hand over the corresponding land to the remaining Northern Expeditionary Army. How could he help the traitor "Flying Eagle" to grow and give you a large piece of territory for free? There is no way! ! !
The protagonist's thinking is different from that of the Black Fire Ant Ambassador. The Black Fire Ant Ambassador seemed very angry. He said that the Black Fire Ant Nation and the remaining vassal Northern Expeditionary Army had reached an effective agreement and had formed a plan for this land. It should be owned by the remaining members of the Northern Expeditionary Army. By doing this, the God's Envoy King's Army destroyed the unity among the civilized ant tribes.
The other party actually dared to slap him in such a big way. The protagonist was so busy running around every day that he had no intention of being annoyed by an ant. He was so irritated that he immediately drove away the ambassador.
What he was thinking in his mind was that the Black Fire Ant Nation was as powerful as the Emperor. As long as he didn't really take action against the Black Fire Ant Nation's vassal, the remnants of the Northern Expeditionary Army, the other party would really be able to accuse God on the grounds of "I had planned it." The King's Legion?
As a result, the Black Fire Ant Ambassador was expelled back to the remaining territory of the Northern Expeditionary Army. The Divine Envoy King's Legion completed the siege of the remaining territory of the Northern Expeditionary Army, leaving three legions to station and monitor, while the other legions withdrew to rest. The protagonist also flew back to the north and continued to take charge.
But in the next week, things developed beyond the protagonist's expectation.
First, the liaison officer of the Ant Alliance in the Leafcutter Ant Nation reported that 1,296 soldiers sent by the black fire ants to support the Leafcutter Ant Nation suddenly left the front line. Later, the Leafcutter Ant Nation expressed to him that it hoped that the Ant Alliance Nation and the Black Fire Ant Nation would not fight internally.
The next day, the soldiers of the Divine Envoy King who were responsible for monitoring the remaining troops of the Northern Expedition reported that more than a thousand black fire ant soldiers had disembarked from the arriving locust caravan and were confronting us. There was no fighting between the two sides, but the situation was tense. The opponent was obviously transferred from the Leafcutter Ant Country to support the rest of the Northern Expedition Army.
The Black Fire Ant Ambassador then conveyed his information package through the Commander of the Divine Envoy King, stating that the Black Fire Ant Nation would defend the interests of its vassals at all costs and would not hesitate to fight a "civilized civil war".
Even envoys from the Black Fire Ant Country arrived at [Xinyang City] with the caravan and submitted an information package to the joint conference of all ethnic groups, expressing the same attitude as the ambassador.
The protagonist is a little confused. I didn't expect that the Black Fire Ant Country is so tough and unreasonable. You guys discussed it among yourself and drew a circle, which is your territory? Is there any royal law?
He is not afraid of the more than a thousand expeditionary troops of the Black Fire Ant Kingdom at all, and the other side does not have the strength to send more troops to support the vassal. But he decided to negotiate a solution.
The Leaf Cutter Ant Nation also sent an envoy to mediate. The other party did not want internal strife to occur within the civilized ant tribe when the Leaf Cutter Ant Nation faced a major military threat and urgently needed the concerted assistance of its allies.
The Ant Alliance is currently also facing the threat of the Pavement Ant Empire, and has no plans to break up with the Black Fire Ant Empire and have a military conflict. Now, in order to meet the military needs, the iron production of the blast furnaces in the United Kingdom has increased significantly. If you want to smelt high-quality iron, you can only use the high-quality coal sold by the Black Fire Ant. Locally burned wood is not up to the task.
The protagonist bites his jaw and asks the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade "Little Flower" to go to the leaf-cutter ant country to negotiate with the leaf-cutter ant clan and the black fire ant clan on this crisis.
From the reports that "Little Flower" kept sending back through the Flying Knight, the protagonist learned that the "civilized ant tribe" really recognized the legitimacy of this unimplemented plan.
The protagonist protested, saying that I also planned to occupy this land last winter, and there was an information package to prove it. However, considering that this territory is very close to the main nest of the remaining members of the Northern Expeditionary Army, the leafcutter ant representatives still tend to support the black fire ants in the negotiations.
After repeated consultations and the final agreement of the protagonists, the three parties finally reached an agreement on this crisis:
1. The God's Envoy King's Army evacuated the land near the territory of the remaining Northern Expeditionary Army, and no longer set foot in this area and the land west of the north-south extension line.
Second, the remaining territory of the Northern Expeditionary Army and the west of the north-south extension line belong to the sphere of influence of the Black Fire Ant Kingdom. The line ends at Qinghe River in the north and the dense forest in the south.
Third, the Black Fire Ant Kingdom compensated the Angel King’s Legion with a certain amount of coal.
Fourth, the Black Fire Ant Nation immediately withdraws its garrison from the remaining territories of the Northern Expeditionary Army.
This agreement basically caused the United Nations to suffer a loss. Apart from some free coal, it did not get any benefits.
But both the protagonist and the leaf-cutting ant nation urgently need to reach this agreement, and they have no time to waste time with the black fire ant nation because of a crisis in this remote corner.
Because... the Pavement Ant Imperial Army launched an attack again, and they launched a massive attack on the Leafcutter Ant Nation and the Ant Alliance Nation at the same time!
