Chapter 1256 Hedong in 3 years, Hexi in 3 years
One morning in March, May prepared everything and headed to Liverpool in a regular car, accompanied by her close aide, the Minister of Defense.
The distance from Manchester to Liverpool is not far, but it seemed to Miss Mei like a century.
Sister Mei held the box Colt gave her in her arms, feeling very complicated.
"I've decided!" Sister Mei turned away from the window and said in a low voice, "After I finish this, I will announce my resignation."
"Sir, don't listen to old man Colt." The Minister of Defense has been upset about Colt persuading Sister Mei. "Things haven't come to that point yet. We still have troops loyal to us. Their forces are too few. We can continue to fight. They can't control all our land. Even if the worst happens, we can organize a government in exile."
"It's useless." Sister Mei shook her head dejectedly, "This will do our empire no good at all. They will destroy our empire, and then we will really have no chance at all.
"Colt is right. Someone needs to stand up and sacrifice himself, take all the responsibilities, bear all the humiliation, and give the Empire a chance to breathe... I decided to be that person, and only I am qualified to be that person."
This pot is too heavy. Ever since Sister Mei made the decision to take the blame, he has been feeling overwhelmed.
"This is unfair to you, sir."
“Haha!” Sister Mei laughed bitterly. “There is no absolute fairness in this world. When Dongda was not Dongda more than a hundred years ago, people also felt it was unfair, but they managed to survive, and that’s why we have Dongda today.”
"Your Mightiness......"
"No need to say more, I have already made up my mind."
......
Liverpool.
Zeng Wangcai received the information that Sister Mei had reached the outer perimeter of the cordon, and smiled to Mason beside him, "It looks like the matter is about to end. From now on, this is your stage, and it's time to watch you perform."
"Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today!" Mason responded respectfully.
Mason couldn't imagine that he would actually become the leader of a country.
"In addition, the smoothness of the matter is beyond my imagination." Zeng Wangcai recalled the intelligence given by You Benhua, "You need to pay attention to Colt. This guy should be an old fox. You were pushed out to be the face of the party, but in fact the party is still in his hands."
"I know!" Mason nodded. "He is a very smart old man. He only looks at the results when doing things. He chooses whatever has a beneficial result, and he doesn't care about his own gains or losses."
"Send someone to keep an eye on him." Zeng Wangcai thought, "If he behaves himself, that's the best. If not, kill him."
"I'll arrange it."
"Okay, what about the land?"
"It's ready. All the people on the island have been relocated."
"That's good!"
Zeng Wangcai has one last thing to do, which is to acquire a piece of land, just like the Americans were staring at the chicken in the basin. Otherwise, Zeng Wangcai will not easily believe that the Corrupt Country will be honest.
How do you say that?
The boy who slayed the dragon eventually became the dragon.
There is no way around it, it's just a reciprocal measure, Zeng Wangcai doesn't feel guilty at all.
The islands he was talking about are Barra Island and Minggulai Island. These two islands are located in the north of the north of the UK and have a harsh geographical environment. Barra Island is very large and Minggulai Island is very small, one has people in it and the other has no people.
The reason why two islands are prepared is because the Americans will definitely not agree.
The closest of these two islands is only 4,000 kilometers away from the U.S. mainland and less than 5,000 kilometers away from New York.
What is this concept?
A slightly more powerful missile can fly over.
Zeng Wangcai has always been very clear that the core has never been on the British side, but on the American side.
Sister Mei’s car is here!
In this meeting, apart from Zeng Wangcai's people, there were very few people from the British side. It was a secret negotiation and would be made public only after it was completed.
"Haha, Mr. Zeng..." Sister Mei finally saw Zeng Wangcai's true face.
Everyone was guessing before, but guessing was useless.
Now that it has been confirmed that it was Zeng Wangcai, it is still useless because the matter has been settled.
"Haha, nice to meet you, Mr. President. Please come in."
Sister Mei looked at the street scenes of Liverpool along the way, and couldn't help feeling emotional, recalling the scene when she came here many years ago.
Today, this important port city of the Corrupt Country has been completely destroyed and bombed into pieces everywhere. Only the dock is still intact.
And at the dock, it was no longer the British workers who were busy, but the group of Flying Dutchmen who had not yet left.
"Mr. President, you are very emotional." Zeng Wangcai naturally noticed Sister Mei's loneliness. "We have a saying over there: 'Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west.' Our ancestors were also very emotional like you are now. Of course, I'm not talking about the group of people in the palace."
"Well said!" Sister Mei's defense was broken. "You can't stay strong forever."
"Really? Just wait and see, don't talk nonsense."
Until the documents were returned, Sister Mei was not humiliated. Zeng Wangcai did not use too many harsh words, his weapons were all behind her.
Zeng Wangcai received the document, but did not read it. He gave it to Xiaobao to put away, then took out his own document and handed it to Sister Mei with a gloomy face: "Thank you for reminding me. Now it's your turn. First of all, I want to tell you that there is no room for negotiation on this document."
Getting to the point, Sister Mei took the document and looked at it carefully. The more she looked, the paler her face became.
There were not many clauses in the document. First, compensation of money, a huge amount of money, which was implied in the title, so Mei didn't care. Second, compensation of land, Mei also thought about this, the geographical location of the two islands was not good, at least much worse than Jiang Island...
Sister Mei didn't care about a series of conditions, but the only thing she couldn't accept was the disbanding of the army.
"That's impossible!" Sister Mei said angrily, "A country without an army is equivalent to losing its sovereignty. We cannot agree to this."
“You have an army now, and you had a navy before, so let me ask you, do you have sovereignty now?”
"..."
Zeng Wangcai smiled and said, "I'm not asking you to give up all your armed forces, but to disband your troops and merge them into the police department. In my opinion, your troops are vulnerable and there is no point in keeping them.
"From now on you are not allowed to have a navy or an air force."
"That means you can't even fight back when you get beaten?" Sister Mei continued to roar.
"Don't worry, we're here!" Zeng Wangcai continued, "Do you think I want those two islands for nothing? They're a barren place with no development value. We will station troops on the islands. Since I made this condition, I will protect you in the future. I will beat anyone who dares to attack you... This can be written in the terms."
Mei suddenly thought of the geographical location of the two islands, and then thought of the Americans...
"I agree!"
