Tomorrow's Ark, the journey of hardcore and ruthless people

The middle and senior officers of Wang Tingjun, who were not too hungry, hated the hypocrisy on the other side.But the starved and injured grassroots officers and soldiers are different-especially the soldiers who ran past shouted on the radio, "Who is that! I am Hans, there is food and drink here, you Come here quickly too!" Even after he really ran back with a bag of bread, steamed buns and steamed buns to pull people away.

Yesterday, Teresis personally questioned the captured officer who brought him Teresa's letter, and then informed the chief officers of each unit through an informal order that there was no need to seriously prevent deserters.So, the answer is already obvious.

"Notify the other side, we request negotiation."

Chapter 57 Negotiation Issues

As the two sides reached a temporary ceasefire agreement during the negotiations, something happened in the no-man's land between the two fronts that stunned the soldiers of the Royal Court Army:

Within a few hours, a one-story building covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters rose from the ground—this is not a tent, but a house with a proper structure, walls, ceilings, and eaves!

Watching those unbelievable machines and personnel drive into the no-man's land, move, rotate, swing, and operate like a whirlwind, from the Wang Ting Army defenders who watched the excitement from afar to the Wang Ting Army guards who came to supervise the operation of the construction site according to the agreement, I just feel like blinking between.In the core of the storm, a one-story house rose from the ground, and even if it "grew" out of the house, everyone would not be able to see any conspiracy in the house on the opposite side.

The guards of Wang Tingjun who went in for inspection afterwards were even more astonished.Although the appearance of the house on the outside can only be described as square and solid with cement gray, the inside is still relatively good: white walls, tiled floors, two rectangular conference tables facing each other in the center of the hall, and the flag of the Kazdel Military Council on the west table , on the east table stood the national flag of Kazdel, gradually approaching from north to south.And the gap on the north side of the two tables was filled by another long table, forming an equilateral triangle with the base in the north—the red triangle with black background and silver border of Atlas inserted in the base banner.

All the facilities and supplies of the tripartite delegation seemed to look in the mirror. Except for the different directions, they were all symmetrical. No one had one more, and no one had one less.

At 1093:7 a.m. on July 17, [-], eight security guards wearing armbands from each of the three parties entered the hall in goose steps or in unison, and stood at attention far away from the seats facing each other, forming a row.Their respective boots or shoes kicked the wooden floor loudly, as if whoever was quieter was showing weakness to the other.

Then, participants from the three parties entered through the east, west and north gates.

At ten o'clock, in the silence, the chief representative of the Atlas delegation, Comand, and the chief representative of the Kazdel Kingdom delegation, Theresia, and the chief representative of the Cadsdale Military Council delegation, Tracys, entered through the south gate. In the hall, take your seats.

Negotiations to decide Kazdel's fate begin.

**

Atlas's move was very subtle - in expressing its position, it suddenly separated itself from the Thearesian Group, which had achieved a considerable degree of dominance over the magpie's nest, and assumed the role of a "mediator" in the Kazdaele Civil War. Identity and attitude.

This move caused considerable shocks within the Theresia Group, which had intricate internal relations, and even the Kazdel Group, and triggered countless emotions and viewpoints.Even though Comand repeatedly stated to Theresia that all the cooperation agreements signed by the two parties will be implemented as usual, and Atlas's policy and policy towards Theresia will not change until the negotiation results are achieved, but Tess Rezia still looked worried.

Comand then confessed to Teresia:

"Ms. Teresia, please tell me, is the role you have played so far worthy of our investment in you?"

"..."

"At this point, it's time to publicly explain our views, our intentions, and our determination to the entire Kazdale. We want to promote the unification of Kazdale, but neither you nor the Tracys Group are satisfactory. .Then naturally, in this brand new environment, all parties will have certain opportunities. Although you are the "number one player" in the future Kazdel's unified regime from various perspectives, who can Say Tracy has no chance?"

The same message was also passed on to Tracy's side.So, compared to the dignified East Kasdale, the representatives led by Tracy seemed a little excited and eager to try—that was the straw that saved their lives.

Command didn't seem to care about this. After the rotating host Tallulah announced the date, time, and place, and announced the official start of today's meeting, he stood up: "Very well, everyone, first of all, there is no doubt that you Neither side has the ability to continue the war."

Teresia remained calm, and Teresi looked out the window.

Command smiled, with a funny feeling: "It doesn't matter, even if one of the two has the ability and idea to continue the war, we will use various means to make it lose the ability to continue the war and remove its war ability. "

The corners of the mouths of the two Sarkaz heroes twitched.

"During the contact with Teresia, the official exchanges between us are limited to cooperation agreements and commercial contracts. Regarding your political program and future plans, there has been no official notification; for Teresia Therefore, the opportunity for the three parties to discuss in a room instead of communicating with weapons is very precious.

"In line with the respective interests of our three parties, as well as the attitude of being responsible for the people and land of the entire Kazdel. We need two parties to explain a problem: Assuming that Atlas never intervened in this war, adjust the situation to the present What are you going to do when you have mastered the entire Kazdel? Of course, you can’t get bogged down in a lengthy report here, please skip any slightly in-depth technical and detailed issues.”

Comander finished speaking, sat down, and folded his hands under his nose.

After a brief silence, Teresia stood up.After coughing twice to confirm that the microphone was working properly, Teresia spoke calmly:

"The key to breaking the game is the Tower of Babel."

People looked at Kelsey beside her with a slumped face.

"When Kazdel returns to unity and the Sarkaz unites again—the scars we left on this land will probably unite this land again, and their spearhead is directed at Kazdel.

"We should avoid this situation as much as possible. So I chose a new entry point: infected people."

Teresia paused, emphasizing her tone:

"Sarkaz is not welcome on this land... After all, we once whipped the entire land, and were whipped by the entire land. So my choice is to find a new ally. This ally is not any one The country, but a group that is ignored, despised and trampled upon, that is, the infected!

"Sarkaz has a susceptible physique in addition to his physical strength and spell talent. We have a considerable degree of overlap with the infected. The infected are not only widely distributed in every corner of every country, but also suffer from major or Small discrimination, exploitation and oppression. They have infinite potential, 'Save the Infected' is an effective slogan to unite them, intervene in effective claims and cover of all parties. In this way, intelligence can be collected from all parties and relationships can be developed everywhere. For Kazdel's own development buys time. My speech is over."

Teresia glanced at Comand calmly, and sat down.

Tracy glanced at Kelsey with a stern gaze in silence, this expression was the most peaceful among the various attitudes Si Kazdale looked at Kelsey.That's because although Kelsey is now sitting beside the Sarkaz Demon King, 200 years ago, he was the key figure who single-handedly pulled together the anti-Sarkaz multi-national coalition forces and drove Kazdel into the bottom of the valley.

Why on earth did she run to serve Theresa?Is Teresia the key person who trusted her mortal enemy?Not to mention Tracys, Atlas does not know much about this issue at present.

Even though the resources and bargaining chips are the least among these three parties, and his 10,000+ people are still in the encirclement, Tracy is still cold, firm, and even a little aggressive: "The crisis is facing Kazdel, Danger looms over Sarkaz, but opportunity also lies before us.

"In the north, Ursus is facing massive internal conflicts; in the east, Yan Kingdom is still enjoying itself, and rarely looks outside the country; In the west, the gangster families in Syracuse are still taking turns on their small stage. Letania has just stabilized after the twin queens overthrew the witch queen——

"The unification of Kazdel is close at hand, no matter who unifies who. And few countries have the power to intervene in this war, or split Kazdel again. Unification is actually not a problem-if there is no Atlas .”

The Atlas representatives showed no change in expression.The participants from Teresia and Teresis had different expressions.

"But the question is, what happens after reunification? Sarkaz is a public enemy on this land; and all our enemies are getting new powers - they are advancing on a new track, that is science and technology! In the past, Sarkaz The physique and witchcraft that Katz depended on for survival are being threatened by the products of technology.

"Even if Atlas is not counted, the land fleets of all countries are expanding rapidly, increasing in number, and advancing in technology. The royal court could wipe out tens of thousands of infantry with a single prince 200 years ago-but what about now? A large army with land ships and a large number of field artillery is a deadly threat to the Wang Ting Army of the same size militarily. What did the Wang Ting Army land fleet before the war have? There are only a handful of ships that can be regarded as "capital ships" It can be counted, and the technical level and combat performance of auxiliary ships are far weaker than similar foreign equipment.

"Unfortunately, we have no negative attitude towards Ms. Teresia's plan. But we believe that this is at most an auxiliary factor for Kazdel to maintain her own independence and protect national security in the future. The key still lies in Kazdel's future development of the country's overall strength.

"As far as the current international environment and surrounding conditions are concerned, Kazdel needs to give priority to the development of the armed forces and the construction of military industries, and at the same time..."

Tracy paused.

"Disturb countries that may attack Kazdel, and buy time for Kazdel's own construction. My speech is over."

Tracy sat down too.

Commander nodded, without getting up, and said directly: "Okay, first of all, we all know that this is the official explanation of some of Kazdel's current strategic decisions by the two groups most likely to be in power. So, these two are at least The policies that the two groups are going to implement, the optimal solutions they make in the face of the environment they face, may have a major impact on the situation in Kazdel and even the entire Terra.

"However, such a policy has not taken into account a crucial factor, and that is our intervention."

Commander looked around at the representatives of Theresia and Tracys with different expressions, and then continued to say calmly: "When things have developed to this point, I don't think anyone will deny that Atlas has a huge role in the Kazdaele issue. The right to speak. And here we have to openly express our own views, our own positions and our own demands.

"Atlas is far from everything we have. I know that you have your own news channels, but I want to tell you that the integration movement is not everything we are. There is no superior-subordinate relationship between Atlas and the integration movement. They are just the tentacles of a vast whole which you will see before long.

"As for our purpose, our greatest purpose for a certain period of time is to establish a unified government that includes the countries of Terra."

Comand paused after saying this, and calmly observed the environment on the venue.

Although the other party has beaten itself to pieces, or has great control over its original power; although the other party almost controls the future of its own camp, and even the life of its own camp; although the other party not only has unimaginable Regular troops, as well as extraordinary warriors who can smash an entire Sarkaz royal court in the blink of an eye...

But everyone still has a little bit of the meaning of living in Bengbu.

Of course, no matter what everyone present, Kazdel, who has been able to emerge in endlessly and has given birth to countless strong and great men, can be mixed into a high position, and even sit on the second hand.This concentration is still there, so everyone is actually stretched very well.

Furthermore, on the other hand, no one dared to really laugh—although a ceasefire agreement was signed, as long as Comand gave an order, the last nail should be knocked on Wang Tingjun's coffin lid, and Teresia couldn't stop it Live, the author said.

Looking at a group of people whose expressions have changed slightly but remained largely unchanged, Command continued: "In our official language, we sympathize, understand and are willing to support the people of Kadsdale in their struggle for national unity and national independence. We are currently highly interfering in Kazdel's internal affairs. We are willing to change this situation in various ways to ensure that Kazdel exists as an independent sovereign country and avoid our excessive interference in Kazdel's internal affairs.

"However, we will never tolerate any country as a source of war, launching various foreign wars of aggression, using force to brutally interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, and bringing serious suffering to the local people—"

When it comes to this, everyone's expressions are almost real - on the one hand, people living on the land of Terra usually have the same attitude towards moral criticism; on the other hand...

Comand looked around and nodded: "I know, to put it bluntly, the above behavior is also quite consistent with our intervention in the Kazdel Civil War. This point cannot be disputed. However, I believe that you are not interested in standing Condescending on the moral high ground, international politics in this land is essentially anarchic. In this environment, acting purely based on moral principles violates the greatest morality-survival.

"We have a lot to talk about here, but the last thing we need to talk about is morality, because talking about morality itself is not 'moral'."

No one said anything.

"If there is no objection, we will continue. Our long-term goal is to establish a coalition government that can effectively lead the governments of Terra and promote the modernization of Terra. In this sentence, there is a key part of' modernization'.

"Modernization is a very complicated concept. Here I will only emphasize a small part: the core of modernization is highly developed industrialization and the modernization of people, and its most fundamental foundation is industrialization. Therefore, we need a country that is more prosperous and more powerful than it is now. A stronger, more unified Kazdel. There is a basis for both of us to work together."

In both Theresia and Theresis, quite a few eyes became brighter.

"To put it bluntly, this land is not considered a 'civilization' by our standards. I am not targeting Kazdel, but all the countries and regions on the entire Terra continent from the extreme northern wasteland to the southern ocean. Regions. Whether it is a bustling city or a remote desert, they are all very underdeveloped in terms of civilization development.

"Such a society cannot effectively provide us with what we need. You should have a profound understanding of our productivity and technology. Not to mention products, even people, the Sakaz lack knowledge and literacy. The sense of discipline lacks the qualities possessed by individuals under the influence of the entire modern society.

"So, we've got to get Kazdel up first, and then we'll talk about anything else."

Comand glanced around fiercely: "The road to modernization and industrialization is not easy. Even if we teach you everything, you will have to pay great pains to collect enough funds from the barren Kazdale to undertake these tasks. thing.

"But I can guarantee that if you count any transactions in the past 200 years, you will never find a time when Sarkaz's blood is more valuable than it is now!

"Okay, this is to set the tone for the entire negotiation process. Next, let's solve each issue one by one according to the agenda of the meeting. The first item on the agenda is the surrender conditions of Wang Tingjun?"

Chapter 58 Tracys in Space 1

August 1093, 8, Fulda region.

Tracy looked suspiciously at her unremarkable clothes.At first glance, this thing is just a slightly thicker navy blue one-piece camouflage uniform. It is not surprising that there are so many and varied camouflages in Atlas-there are always all kinds of novelties among them. .The people of Terra with this idea are hardly surprised by the new gadgets that Atlas has brought out.

Comand, who was wearing something similar, walked around Tracys and said, "Very well, you're fine with what you're wearing."

The negotiations went relatively smoothly, because Wang Tingjun had little negotiating leverage and was suffering from desperation.However, for things after "put down your arms and accept the adaptation", from Teresia to Teresi, there are still personal calculations.

Atlas still needs a lot of work.One of the ways is to take this group of frogs out of the well to see the world...Of course, at first, both the Teresia Group and the Teresia Group suspected that Atlas had no good intentions to throw a grand banquet.So everyone hesitated in front of Atlas's repeated suggestions, and finally only sent a few representatives.

Manfred was sent by Tracys.When he returned 48 hours later, people were puzzled to find that General Sarkaz, who is usually calm and calm, and the battlefield collapsed without changing his face, was too excited.He said to Tracys: "General! I have seen great power!"

Before everyone could fully understand what was going on from Manfred's excited and incoherent words, Teresia decided to go there in person after Kelsey, who was in a trance, returned.

Tracy gritted her teeth and became cruel, just go!

Then Atlas sent such a piece of clothing overnight, and they also sent this thing when Manfred was going before.Last time, everyone studied this jumpsuit repeatedly, but in the end they felt that they couldn't figure out anything, so they could only dress Manfred according to the thin dressing instructions.

Manfred came back and told everyone:

"This is a space suit."

So Tracy put on the clothes and came to the agreed place not far from the negotiation place.

Then I saw the huge UGS-50 "Storm Bird" air-space gunboat.

Stormbird is not Thunderhawk.The officers and soldiers of the Wang Ting Army have seen the Thunderhawk gunboat more or less a few times, and they still have a fresh memory of this thing's distinctive square shape and abnormal weapon configuration. awe.Teresis had also seen the Thunderhawk spreading death in the sky when the frontline headquarters encountered an air strike, but he realized that although the shape and outline of the thing in front of him was similar to the Thunderhawk gunboat, its size was definitely more than a circle larger. This damn thing has four engines alone!

As a heavy aerospace vehicle that can cross the atmosphere, the Stormbird is enough to deter the enemy with its wide fuselage and fierce appearance.Compared with those mass-produced Thunderhawks, the Stormbirds are huge in size and exquisite in workmanship. It is a gift from the cold and dark universe. As early as when the nascent human empire started the war of unification of Terra, the formations of Stormbirds were already on the ground. Soar in the sky.

However, when the Great Crusade gradually expanded to sweep across the galaxy, people realized that some kind of mass-produced and low-cost aerospace multi-purpose heavy gunship was indispensable, and the Thunderhawk appeared, with a lower cost and smaller The body shape realizes most of the functions of the Stormbird.The Thunderhawk is only a practical model mass-produced quickly in the No.30 millennium to meet the needs of the great expedition for weapons and equipment. It is just a cheap and available assembly line product that is easily discarded.

As a larger existence, the Stormbird has nothing to do with being weak, but it is not a clumsy and crude thing.They are capable of swooping down from low-Earth orbit in large-scale orbital airborne battles on Earth-like planets, delivering fifty to hundreds of Space Marines at a time, and returning safely to the mothership outside the atmosphere.

Before Tracy could react from the shock of witnessing this thing, Comand led him directly into the cabin of the Stormbird and sat down in the rows of seats inside the crew compartment.Comand calmly locked Teresis in the seat with a complicated hard safety frame, and then locked himself in the seat.

"This is......"

"I'll take you to our old home."

Comand looked a little tired.Tracys looked uneasily at the four space warriors sitting in the corner of the cabin, then turned around and asked Comand next to him, "Where are you going?"

"Relax, your apprentice, Old Lynx, and your sister have been there."
