Chapter 852: Duty and Awareness (2)
With such a massive operation by China, the border defenders had no choice but to report to the Border Military Region Command as soon as possible!
The Military Region Command also felt that it was impossible to deal with it, so it reported it directly to the Imperial Military Department! Defense Minister Matsushima Nagagawa did not dare to neglect when he heard this, so he quickly went to the palace to meet Emperor Yuan Ren.
"...What do they want to do?" Emperor Yuan Ren in the imperial palace frowned after listening to the report.
Prime Minister Nishi Miyazawa said: "Last time, the top Chinese leaders asked us to send troops to assist in the defense of the Northwest Xinghai defense line according to the relevant terms of the two sides' alliance. We have dispatched six legions! The supply of all kinds of supplies that should be issued is also supplied on time, without any shortage! They are here this time, will it be..."
Financial Minister Shin-ichi Asahara said coldly: "What else can it be? It's just that we feel that our empire has not paid enough, so we came to the door to fight Qiu Feng!"
The ministers were silent.
The Chinese military never does meaningless things. Since their fleets have arrived at the doorstep, they have not blackmailed enough benefits, they will definitely not give up!
Yuan Renhuang's face turned cold: "Since that's the case! What should we do?"
Matsushima Nagagawa gritted his teeth and said, "We can mobilize enough military forces to block this fleet and order them to withdraw from our territory immediately! If they insist on not listening, they will not say that they should give them some color!"
Asahara Shinchi shook his head and said, "It's easy to teach this fleet a lesson, but what after that? What will happen to the angered senior leaders of the Chinese Empire? Don't forget that our current strength is not enough to confront this superpower!"
Matsushima Nagagawa blushed, as if he was about to attack, but he was worried about the majesty of Emperor Yuanren, and finally he was just a tough and honest person:
"Even if we are willing to give in, we may not solve the problem, right? Those greedy Chinese people will never give up until they squeeze out the last drop of blood on us!"
Foreign Affairs Magistrate Okamoto Murano said: "After that being said, we still have to talk about it and see what the Chinese people's true intentions are! Then we will decide what to do based on the situation!"
Yuan Renhuang nodded: "Okay. This matter will be my fault!"
"Hi! I will never let down your Majesty's trust!" Okamoto Murano stood up and bowed deeply.
…………
Xiao Junling's fleet did not choose to go deep into the Fusang border immediately. It just occupied the border military region and stationed and stopped moving. At the same time, a large number of space fault spacecraft were sent out to frequently reconnaise the surrounding star domains!
The Fusang Kingdom was very annoyed by such actions and raised strong protests many times, demanding that the Huaxia immediately stop such acts of brutally trampling on the sovereignty of other countries! All of them were ignored by Xiao Junling!
"... Actually, I hope they fire the first shot first." He said to Li Shangbei like this:
"In this way we can teach this country a lesson! That Yuan Ren Huang is a famous military imperialist, and I think it would not disappoint us, right?"
Li Shangbei shook his head and said, "Master, this is impossible! Although the senior leaders of the Fusang people are arrogant and ambitious, they are not stupid! Without certainty, they will not easily turn against each other and let us seize the handle to punish them!"
"You see, we have occupied the border military region now, but there is no sign of military power being mobilized in the nearby star fields. You can see how calm that guy Yuan Ren is!"
"That's right!" Xiao Junling shrugged with regret and said:
"Then send them a message and let the Emperor Yuanren come to negotiate in person! Well! They only have one day to consider!"
Fusang's territory is not too large. From the border to the capital, conventional warships only take a few days to travel. If you are taking a space fault spacecraft, you can cross the entire country in just a few hours!
Half a day later, Foreign Affairs Masahiro Okamoto Murano arrived at the border and immediately asked to meet with the general leader of the fleet after revealing his identity.
"You are... Lord Xiao Junling?!" In the main control room of the fortress, the confidant of Emperor Yuan Ren saw the appearance of the handsome boy in the main seat, and he was stunned for a moment before he realized it and asked in disbelief.
He thought that the commander of this elite fleet must be a senior general of the Chinese military, but he did not expect that it would be this one.
Of course, the Foreign Minister will not be unfamiliar with Xiao Junling. This young lord, who has become famous in China and even in the Xinghai World, has been one of the key targets of Fusang in recent years. It is not much worse than those great consuls!
"That's right! It's just below!" Xiao Junling replied indifferently.
Foreign Affairs said in confusion: "Dear Your Excellency, can I ask, is your visit representing your government or the Temple of Silence, or is it just your own choice?"
Xiao Junling laughed and said, "It seems that you haven't figured out the situation yet. Let me tell you the truth! This time I was entrusted by the senior management of the empire. I came here to talk to your country about certain things, such as the defense situation of the Northwest Star Sea, how much obligations you should bear, etc."
Okamoto Murano's face changed slightly, and hesitated: "But, Your Majesty, my country's affairs are busy, I'm afraid..."
Wei Yun next to him said coldly: "Mr. Foreign Minister, please don't forget that our lord is now the Purple Star Lord of the Empire, and his level is equivalent to that of the Great Consul! And your Fusang Kingdom is just a small vassal state of China! So we ask your Emperor Yuan Ren to come over to talk, which is a reasonable and legal act!"
"Everyone understands people, so don't use those irrelevant words."
"This..." Okamoto Murano's eyes twitched for a moment, and finally remembered some of this past deeds, which were not enough to describe as lawlessness! But the other party's strength and status were there. If he really annoyed him, he could do anything!
After weighing the pros and cons, he had to say, "Okay! Dear Lord, I will forward your request to our Majesty as soon as possible. Please wait patiently!"
So the foreign minister immediately returned to the spacecraft and used the hyperspace communication device to send a message to the capital, explaining the situation here!
More than three hours later, several space fault spacecraft from Fusang Capital emerged from the wormhole entrance in the distance. Then they flew directly to the outside of the fleet's warning circle. After a strict inspection, they were finally allowed to enter the main control center of the "Sky Realm" fortress!
"Dear Mr. Xiao Junling, we are meeting again!" Emperor Yuan Ren stared deeply at the young lord opposite him for a while, and tried hard to squeeze out a smile on his face. He stretched out his hand.
Speaking of which, he and Xiao Junling are indeed old friends. At the hunting event held by the wealthy families in the imperial capital, the two met because of Zhou Meng. Although they had a bad relationship, they could even say that they had a lot of hatred!
This person was the culprit who caused him to lose control and run away at the Zhou family's ancestor worship ceremony. Although there was no evidence, after the incident, some rumors have gradually begun to be known to the outside world! I think it seems that only this person has such incredible means!
Because of this guy's plot, his marriage plan with the Zhou family failed, and even his position as the crown prince was almost out of control! In the end, he had to take risks and launch a coup to kill his father and brothers, thus winning the throne!
Now the two met again. He is still just a Fusang Emperor, a vassal of the Huaxia Empire! But the person in front of him is already a powerful man in the Star Sea World! He has controlled a whole galaxy alone, a large number of elite legions, a future heir of the Silent Star Temple, and a person on par with the Great Consul! The status gap between the two sides is simply unpredictable!
After barely suppressing the hatred in his heart, his tone became gentler: "Your Excellency, our Fusang Kingdom has always been very humble to China. We dare not act disobediently for a moment. I wonder why your side suddenly rushed into the border of our country this time..."
Xiao Junling glanced at him and stretched out his hand to hold him indifferently. He said calmly: "Dear Emperor Yuanren, I came here this time for no other reason, just conveying you the decision of the Imperial Grand Administrators' Conference!"
"From now on, your country must dispatch another twenty special-level legions, thirty-five first-level legions, and 300 superpower legions to the Northwest Xinghai Defense Line and accept unified command from the Chinese Military Department! As for the issue of logistics supply, we can consider taking one-third of the responsibility for you, and you will solve the rest yourself!"
The members of the Fusang officials who were accompanying him were stunned! Prime Minister Miyazawa Neji said in a silence: "This is absolutely impossible! Are you kidding? We are a small country with few people, so how can we get so many troops? Even if we empty our treasury, we can't do it..."
"Impossible?" Xiao Junling sneered:
"Your Majesty Yuan Ren, and everyone from Fusang Kingdom, you seem to have underestimated the capabilities of the imperial security department! How many extraordinary things have you done secretly with your back on China in the past few years? You know in your heart, and we understand too!"
"Don't forget your identity, and don't try to test our bottom line. No matter what you think, please keep in mind a fact. My fleet is here! With just one order, it only takes about twenty days to flatten the entire Fusang country, and I have the ability and determination to take it into action at any time!"
Emperor Yuan Ren's face darkened: "Hisser Xiao Junling, are you considered a force threat to us?"
"That's right! It's a threat!" Xiao Jun said:
"I'm not interested now, nor do I have time to play a game of negotiating and quarrel with you! You have only two choices now. If you accept the orders of the empire, your country can be preserved! Otherwise, you will be the last emperor of the Fusang clan!"
Yuan Renhuang's face turned pale! Long before he set out, he thought he had prepared enough mentally for the troubles he might encounter on this trip, but now he realized that the young lord was even harder than he thought, and he did not intend to act according to the diplomatic procedures he had previously agreed upon, but went straight to the topic from the beginning.
But the gap in strength between the two countries was there, and he could not bargain at all! By the way, with the bad nature of the Fusang nation, if the status of both sides was reversed, his attitude would only be more arrogant and domineering!
Xiao Junling smiled and said, "Your Majesty! Fusang has always been a vassal of China. Since he is a vassal, he must have the awareness of a vassal! He should not forget his duties! So now is the time for you to make a decision!"
Chapter completed!
