Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 159
Su Yi has no objection to the seven great powers including Inaba, Sharad, and Noomi who want to sign a treaty that limits the size of the navy and army of each country.

If the countries can really reach an agreement and sign a treaty that limits the size of the navy and army of each country, then the countries will inevitably greatly reduce the construction plans of battleships and battlecruisers. Restrictions, but this has little impact on the Great Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire.

Don't forget that most of the warships of the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire and the Royal Navy of the Ziyue Empire are purchased by Su Yi from the system mall, and the warships purchased from the system mall can be temporarily stored in the system's item warehouse .

At present, Su Yi can purchase 28 super dreadnought battleships from the system mall every year, including four Queen Elizabeth-class ships, four Bavarian-class ships, four Iron Duke-class ships, four Ise-class ships, four Nevada-class ships, four Pennsylvania class and four New Mexico class ships.

Twenty battlecruisers can be purchased, including four Tigers, eight Lions, four Kongos, and four Prestige.

Twelve Dreadnought battleships can be purchased, including two Goliaths, two Kings, four Earls of Cavour, and four Gubas.

Twelve of the former Dreadnoughts were also available for purchase, including four Edward VII-class, four Brunswick-class and four Lord Nelson-class.

Even if the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire have signed a treaty limiting the size of the navy and army of each country, Su Yi can buy all the battleships and battlecruisers that can be purchased every year and store them in the system's item warehouse. When war breaks out between the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire and one of the seven great powers, Su Yi can instantly produce 140 super dreadnought battleships, [-] battlecruisers, [-] dreadnought battleships and [-] pre-dreadnought battleships , maybe even more, after all, in five years, Su Yi should still get a lot of battleship and battlecruiser cards and put them in the system mall.

However, this country that is hostile to the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire will not be able to add a few battleships and battlecruisers in the five years because of the treaty that limits the size of the navy and army of each country. The Royal Navy and the Royal Navy of the Ziyue Empire can use a crushing posture to completely abuse the navy of this hostile country.

For this reason, Su Yi certainly has no objection to the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire joining this negotiation on limiting the size of the navy and army of each country.

The Prime Minister of the Sharad Empire, Shulik, coughed and said to Su Yi: "Your Majesty, since the navies of the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire can be regarded as a navy of one country, they are negotiating to limit the size of the navy and army of each country. Among them, the Great Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire can only participate as a whole."

When Su Yi heard it, he immediately said decisively: "The Great Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire must participate in the negotiations to limit the size of the navy and army of each country as two countries, otherwise the Great Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire would rather withdraw."

Seeing Su Yi's resolute attitude, after exchanging opinions with each other, the prime ministers of the seven countries reluctantly agreed to Su Yi's request, and decided that after Su Yi's enthronement ceremony was over, the representatives of the nine countries would be in Chang'an City to negotiate.

After the prime ministers of the seven great powers left, Su Yi called He Yunfei, Wang Chengliang, Cheng Ziwen, and Zhang Qihui, four high-level military officials, and told them that the seven great powers planned to cooperate with the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire. Sign a treaty that limits the size of each country's navy and army.

Wang Chengliang immediately said: "Marshal, if nine countries sign this treaty that limits the size of each country's navy and army, then a joint investigation team must be formed to station in each country's shipyards and naval bases to monitor the number of naval capital ships and their main forces. The construction of ships, but in that case, the seven great powers will definitely ask you to disclose the nonexistent island shipyard, otherwise the other seven countries will not be able to control the shipbuilding situation of our Datang Empire and Ziyue Empire. "

Su Yi frowned, "That's a problem. The island shipyard was just fabricated by me. There is no way to announce the island shipyard to the public. Forget it. The Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire will not participate if it is really impossible. What a treaty that limits the size of the navy and army of each country."

He Yunfei said at this time: "Commander, although the Great Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire maintain large-scale naval and military forces, the pressure on military expenditures is not too great, so the subordinates feel that there is no need to promote the restriction of the size of the naval and military forces of each country. It is best to allow those seven countries to invest more funds in the arms race and bring greater economic pressure to those seven countries."

Su Yi smiled and said: "We still have to participate in the negotiation, which shows that the Great Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire have already entered the list of first-class powers, but the Great Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire must not make any compromises on matters of principle. Give in half a bit."

After a pause, Su Yi continued: "The main reason for asking you to come here today is for the enthronement ceremony and the military parade. Let's go through it again and see if there are any mistakes in the whole process."

After the seven prime ministers left the palace in Chang'an City, they did not disperse separately, but came together to the embassy of the Yingluoba Empire in Chang'an City.

In a conference room at the British embassy, ​​the Prime Minister of the Sharad Empire Shulik said to the prime ministers of the other six countries: "Regardless of the relationship between our seven countries, when it comes to safeguarding the interests of the white world, we seven All countries should be consistent, so in the negotiations to limit the size of the navy and army of each country, our seven countries should collectively put pressure on the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire, and strive to reduce the size of the navy and army of these two Tang countries as much as possible. I don’t know everyone. What do you think?"

As soon as Shulik's words fell, Maxim, the Prime Minister of the Jisk Empire, agreed: "Prime Minister Shulik is reasonable. Su Yi, who controls the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire, is an ambitious and dangerous person. We, the seven most powerful white nations in the world, should unite to limit the size of the navy and army of the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire."

If among these seven countries, who is the most scruples about the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire, it is the Sharad Empire and the Jisk Empire.

After all, Su Yi's national theory of the supremacy of the Tang Dynasty has spread throughout the world, while the Sharad Empire and the Jisk Empire still occupy the territory of the Tang Dynasty as a concession, and have also obtained prospecting rights, mining rights, and road construction rights. Waiting for a series of privileges, according to Su Yi's theory, the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire can declare war on the Sharad Empire and the Jisk Empire at any time, and drive these two countries from the land of the Tang people .

The Prime Minister of the Orenza Empire, Niki Fore, nodded and said: "The current Datang Empire and Ziyue Empire have already begun to challenge the rules set by our white world, we really have to unite to suppress these two Tang countries. "

The Orensa Empire has just suffered a big loss at the hands of the Ziyue Empire and the Datang Empire. Of course, it is hoped that the strength of the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire will be weakened as much as possible.

Julian, the Prime Minister of the Noomi Empire, did not contradict Shulik, the Prime Minister of the Sharad Empire, "It is necessary to contain the military strength of the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire, or the entire Eastern Continent may be destroyed by that Su Yi in the future." ruled."

A younger brother of the Noomi Empire has just been annexed by the Datang Empire. If the Noomi Empire and the Datang Empire were not separated by the Sharad Empire, maybe the Noomi Empire has already broken out with the Datang Empire. War can weaken the Great Tang Empire. The military strength of the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire, the Noomi Empire approves with both hands.

Prime Minister August of the British Empire smiled slightly and said: "Our British Empire also agrees with Prime Minister Shulik's proposal. When we negotiate, our British Empire is willing to join hands with other countries to make a contribution to the Tang Empire and Ziyue. Imperial pressure to reduce the military capabilities of both countries as much as possible."

Although the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire have not yet had any conflicts with the Yingluoba Empire, the Royal Navy of the Datang Empire and the Royal Navy of the Ziyue Empire have taken the Royal Navy of the Yingluoba from the throne of the world's number one. Pulled down, this is absolutely intolerable to the Yingluoba Empire.

At this time, Tolicka, the Prime Minister of the Monia Empire, hesitated and said: "If our seven countries unite to suppress the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire, in case the two countries are unwilling to be threatened, we will withdraw from the restriction on the size of the navy and army of each country." What about negotiations?"

Shulik, the Prime Minister of the Sharad Empire, said in a vicious tone: "Once the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire are unwilling to abide by the rules set by our white world, then the only thing waiting for the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire is war!"

The Prime Minister of the Gisk Empire, Maxim, immediately said loudly: "If a war is to be launched against the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire, our Jisk Empire is willing to be the first to participate!"

Not to be outdone, the Prime Minister of the Orenza Empire, Niki Fore, said: "Our Orenza Empire is also willing to declare war on the Ziyue Empire and the Datang Empire again in order to safeguard the interests of the white world!"

Prime Minister Julian of the Noomi Empire pondered for a while and said: "Although I, the prime minister, cannot make decisions about declaring war on the Great Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire, but if all the countries present are willing to join, the emperor of our Noomi Empire must Your Majesty should also agree to join."

Prime Minister August of the British Empire said calmly: "We, the British Empire, are obliged to safeguard the interests of the entire white world."

Tolicka, Prime Minister of Monia Empire, and Gehrman, Prime Minister of Rielland Empire, glanced at each other and did not express their opinions immediately. However, if the other five countries are willing to declare war on Datang Empire and Ziyue Empire, then Moni The Asian Empire and the Ruieran Empire are also likely to participate. After all, the combined land area of ​​the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire has exceeded 900 million square kilometers. As long as the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire are defeated, the winner will be There will be huge benefits.

And when the seven first-class powers are united, in the perception of these seven prime ministers, no country in the world can resist, and the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire can only be defeated in the face of the alliance of the seven countries. There is a way to go.

Su Yi would never have imagined that the enthronement hall on his side had not yet been held, while the Enroba Empire, Sharad Empire, Noomi Empire, Monia Empire, Jisk Empire, Rielan Empire and Orenza Empire had not yet been held. The seven prime ministers of the empire have already begun to sharpen their swords.

On the night of June 28th, in a bedroom in the Imperial Palace of Chang'an City, Su Yi asked Empress Ouyang Xue, "Xiaoxue, how is your health? Is there any problem attending the enthronement ceremony?"

Empress Ouyang Xue said softly: "Don't worry, my lord, my health is fine, and I will definitely have no problem participating in the enthronement ceremony and the military parade that follows."

Su Yi then hesitated for a moment and asked again: "Xiaoxue, I am going to let Xiaoqian, Xiaowan, Xinyan, Zifang, and Ziyi participate in this enthronement ceremony. You don't have any objections, do you?"

Empress Ouyang Xue smiled and said: "How can I be so narrow-minded, besides, isn't my husband already planning to canonize me as the empress of the Tang Empire? Affect!"

Although Su Yi has not yet held the enthronement ceremony, he has already drawn up canonization for his six women.

Ouyang Xue is of course the queen of the harem master. Ouyang Qian, Ouyang Wan and Zhao Xinyan will be canonized as noble concubines. The status of noble concubines is only lower than that of queens. Second only to the imperial concubine.

Su Yi said with a smile: "I don't blame that old man Guo Xian for it. I have to say that the enthronement ceremony can only be attended by the emperor and empress, and other concubines in the harem cannot participate. But I promised Xiaoqian and Xiaowan before that I would take them with me. Let's attend the enthronement ceremony together, and then review the three armies of the Tang Empire, the land, sea and air, and the Ziyue Empire's navy and land armies together."

Empress Ouyang Xue suddenly said with a serious face: "Husband, I have thought clearly these days. Anyway, I will hand over the Ziyue Empire to Xiao Suhuai in the future, and Xiao Suhuai is the heir of the Tang Empire, so why not Incorporating the Ziyue Empire into the Tang Empire will save little Su Huai a lot of trouble when he grows up."

In fact, Empress Ouyang Xue is now willing to merge the Ziyue Empire into the Datang Empire, more for her son. After all, Su Yi is not just her, and her son will not be only Su Huai. A son is the emperor!

If the Ziyue Empire and the Tang Empire were merged, and Su Huai would be the eldest son, he would be able to inherit the entire huge empire.

Regarding Empress Ouyang Xue's proposal to merge the Ziyue Empire into the Datang Empire, Su Yi somewhat understood what Empress Ouyang Xue was thinking, so he nodded and said: "Of course there is no problem in merging the Ziyue Empire and the Datang Empire, but now the two countries have their own way. Regarding the administrative system, the matter of merging cannot be rushed, and it is not too late to study it after the enthronement ceremony is over."
