Wang Qi's small kingdom is very deformed.
Night Clan and Sharp Blade are both the second generation of disaster, and even a little bit of intrigue experience is too rough. The local population in the penal colony was generally uneducated, and the wealthy Wang Qi did not trust them, so they were also useless.
For these reasons, the small kingdom still does not have a serious diplomatic agency. In the past, it was part-time by the Border Agency and an office of the Ministry of State Affairs.
Frasha, who was sent to Fatel this time, is also an internal affairs officer. He has a bad temper, but he can control his emotions and is a young man.
There were no civil aviation flights, so traveling to other countries was a time-consuming task. When Frasha left, his family also formally established a diplomatic department.
The social relations of the second generation are very simple, and many things are solved directly with fists. After the small kingdom was formed, Wang Qi did not like to go around in red tape, so over the years, most political officials still think in a straight-fist way.

Straight-forward thinking is not bad. Being simpler is more conducive to maintaining the integrity of the system and improving work efficiency. However, it is still a bit rough when used in diplomacy.
For example, when Frasha went out this time, Wang Qi used several damaging moves on him. The effect is unknown, but at least he should be able to save his head.
To put it bluntly, our fundamentals are still a bit weak.
If a country is small but does not feel humble, if it is small but does not fear the strong, if it is rude but insults its big neighbors, if it is greedy and ignorant of friends, it will perish.
A small country must behave like a small country, and diplomacy must be more technical.
The Phoenix Kingdom is not exactly the same as other small countries. The progress of industrialization has reached a certain system advantage. The current team is relatively pure and there are not so many internal problems. This will bring some local advantages, but it cannot change the natural shortcomings of a small population. Calculating the national strength, it can be compared to an agricultural and handicraft country with a population of several million.
In order to make diplomatic work routine, Wang Qi, who usually doesn't like to make twists and turns, also racked his brains, plagiarized some diplomatic slang, wrote a few pages of diplomatic principles, and personally taught a few lessons to the newly established Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The basic principle of diplomacy is very simple. It is nothing more than giving priority to one's own country's interests.
In practice, it will be more complicated, because the benefits are also divided into short-term and long-term.
For example, if Frasha can obtain Fatel's ransom this time, it will be a short-term benefit. If the batch redemption can be realized and it really induces the separation of Fatal soldiers in the future, it will be a long-term benefit to the company.
However, Frasha's mission is not the norm in diplomacy, because this time he destroyed a legion of the opponent's army, and within a certain period of time, Fatel will treat himself as an opponent of the same level. After a long time, or after they figure out their own weaknesses, the situation will most likely change, and further stimulation may lead to a more intense war.
Anyway, Wang Qi's positioning of the new Ministry of Foreign Affairs is to conduct diplomacy as a country with a strength equivalent to a population of two million.
The first task after the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was to pay return visits to the lords who had sent people to visit and deliver gifts after the previous battles, and to test whether all parties had the willingness to naturalize.
A few days after this mission was sent out, bad news came back.
Naturalization is possible, but marriage is required!
Pang Xuncheng Audrey.
Li Xiang saw it from the side and pursed his lips: "That's great, getting a wife comes with more than 200,000 yuan."
Wang Qi looked at her with a smile and grabbed her hand. She struggled a little but didn't use any force.
"Are you jealous?"
"I don't know, I'm just unhappy." She turned her head and blushed a little.
The relationship between the two is a bit abnormal. He taught her all about menarche, but if you think about it carefully, there is no problem.
Wang Qi became more serious and explained: "Marriage is a very bad combination with endless consequences, so I will not agree to it."
The history he had read in his previous life had proven this point countless times. Even if it didn't happen at the time, something would happen next generation. Of course, this is also related to the royal power system. If the royal power is abandoned, the hidden dangers of marriage will be much smaller.
But now there is no way to make adjustments in terms of royal power. The unknown super life form that Solaris wants to meet may not be effective for hundreds of years without a strong centralized center to promote it. Otherwise, it would have been recognized by the locals long ago. .
"Hmph! I heard she is very beautiful."
"Where did you hear that?"
"I found out about it when I was suppressing bandits." During the construction of the section from Heishui to Pangxun, she led a team to suppress bandits overseas. In order to prevent the surrounding lords from coming out to cause trouble, of course she had to find out in advance.
"No matter how beautiful she is, I don't recognize her."
"Then why does she want to marry you?"
Wang Qi asked back: "I am a king, so since she is the right gender and has no family, why don't we get married?"
It's not that Wang Qi is proud, but under the current productivity conditions, marriage is the first method that lords and even kings will consider to stabilize peripheral relations. Although Wang Qi's kingdom is small, it has also repelled a wave of Fatal attacks. , is definitely the best choice in the eyes of the lord.
After all, Li Xiang had never lived in a normal society, and he had not contracted the bad habit of winning in quarrels. He felt that what he said was reasonable and got angry, and in turn helped him think about it: "But there is a large population in Pangxuncheng. Aren't you short of people?" ?”
Pang Xuncheng would occasionally make announcements and mention that he had 200,000 people in his family, and there were many family workers who could not be counted. In fact, there were only more.
"Even if I agree, taking Pangxun City is still an enclave. Oh, an enclave means that the territories are not connected together. In addition, Pangxun City is by the Luna River, which is equivalent to sticking to the border of Fatel, and an enclave is maintained there. It’s going to be very difficult.”
There is still some distance between the border between Pangxun City and Fatel, and there are two lords in the middle. However, the main channel of Luna River is very wide, and it is impossible for the waterway to be blocked halfway. It is no different from directly sticking to the border. Fatel Er's economic influence here is mainly transmitted through the Luna River and its tributaries.
If it weren't for Fatel's hostility, Pangxun City would indeed be a good place. Even if you don't mention the population, you can use the Luna River to reach the Bathtub Sea in the west. The fishery income alone can feed many more people.
"Ah, it all depends on these small towns. When will the population be able to support a two-front war?"
Wang Qi smiled bitterly: "Not to mention the two lines, even the northern line is difficult to maintain. Come, take a look at the new map."
There is a large map in his office, but it is an old version. The new map is still in the process of being explored, and there is only a small-size version for now.
The expansion of the map boundary was due to the exploration expedition team. They deliberately sent four Tornado IIs over and began a larger-scale exploration.
The Tornado II type, specially configured for exploration expeditions, gave up part of the safety and improved the energy density ratio of the magic module. On the premise of carrying two mount modules, it can fly continuously for twenty hours and has a range of nearly three thousand kilometers.
Therefore, the new map is centered on Phoenix City, with a radius of more than 1,500 kilometers.
It can be seen from this new map that there is another vegetation area about 300 kilometers north of the lava lake. Although it is still a broad-leaved forest, it is obviously denser and sparser, like a temperate forest.
The terrain is not the point. The point is that there are settlements in this area and they have been occupied by demons. In order to confirm the situation, the exploration expedition team specially sent two sorties and ventured down to a thousand meters in the area to locate some corpses. accumulation place.
"So there is still a demon kingdom to the north of the lava lake?"
"Whether it is a kingdom or not, it is certain that they will become more comfortable in projecting troops."
"How about building more planes for air strikes?"
Wang Qi didn't think so: "I don't want to stimulate them to develop air defense capabilities for the time being."
The Tornado II is still too slow. As long as it is targeted, even if it does not have exclusive air defense capabilities, as long as there are flying units that can fly higher than the little devil to form a cluster, it will pose a serious threat to the fleet.
As for whether procrastination will lead to more and more demons, there is no way to consider it for the time being. After all, facing the entire demon world, it is a bit unbearable for the opponent to rush in casually. There is no difference between a very large number and a super large number.
