Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

half a month later.

Limburg, the capital of Plen.

"Gentlemen, the whole of Prun is now facing an unprecedented and great opportunity!"

"Whether it's the East-West Plan proposed by the Qian Kingdom or the Four Kingdoms Plan proposed by the Gelian and Dunli people, it's the most advantageous option for Pulun!"

"Either of these two plans is our best choice."

"And now, we in Pulun have been hit by both of these things at the same time!"

At the ongoing Prun high-level meeting, Prun President Violet Algernon excitedly pumped her fist as she spoke: "This is a gift from God!"

"If we fail to appreciate God's gifts, it would be an unforgivable sin..."

"Just imagine—how wonderful it would be if the entire continent of Xiluo became Pulun's territory!"

Violet Algernon's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement and madness: "We will make history and build a new Plen like never before!"

"At that time, with the resources of the entire Western Luo Continent, we will truly have the strength to contend with the Qian Kingdom."

"If the people of Qian break their promise one day, we won't be so constrained as we are now!"

"We absolutely cannot miss out on the plans and resources from the Qian Kingdom!"

Violet Algernon was bursting with excitement, unable to contain her emotions: "We can't miss out on the four-nation plan proposed by the Green Alliance and the Dunli!"

"These two plans are a perfect match, complementing each other perfectly!"

"The Four Kingdoms Plan will save us a lot of trouble in our eventual unification of the Western Luo Continent."

"If we agree to the four-nation plan, it means we can obtain a quarter of the Western Luo Continent without losing a single soldier!"

"Once we get these territories, we'll quickly take care of the remaining three-quarters and catch them off guard."

"Everything happens for a reason!"

"This is an opportunity that God has given to Prun."

"God has seen it all—only by making us, the Pulun people, the masters of the Western Luo Continent can we contend with the Qian Kingdom, which has now risen to power!"

"This is a task that only we, Puren, can accomplish!"

"The Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people are all a bunch of incompetent fellows. It would be a terrible thing to rely on them for the future of the Western Continent."

"They will only drag down the Western Continent, while Pulun will save it!"

"Today's meeting is about making decisions on these two issues and developing the most appropriate plan based on our final decisions."

I need to know everyone's true feelings!

"Our decision today will directly determine the future fate of the entire Pulun and even the entire Xiluo continent."

"Therefore, I hope that everyone will speak with a sense of responsibility to Pulun when expressing their opinions."

"I want to hear the truth!"

"Because only the truth can truly uncover problems and help us make the right decisions at the right time!"

It was clear that Violet Algernon was incredibly excited and ecstatic about the two pies that fell at the same time.

However, when making the final decision, he is still willing to listen carefully to different opinions before making a final judgment.

The fact that she wasn't blinded by two incredibly tempting offers and made a final decision based solely on her own desires undoubtedly demonstrates Violet Algernon's rationality in important matters.

This seems somewhat out of place with Violet Algernon's nickname, "The Madman of Ciro".

It's no wonder that the analysis report of the Supreme Command of the Qian Kingdom once clearly pointed out that among the presidents of the Western Luo Kingdoms, Violet Algernon was known as a "madman".

But this "madman's" ambition and his strategic vision were fairly proportional...

-------------------------------------

"President, I think we should carefully assess the risks involved when facing this unprecedented opportunity and making a final decision?"

"The main problem now is—are the Qian Kingdom's East-West plan and the four-nation plan proposed by the Georgian Union and other countries truly reliable...?"

Chaplin Prescott, senior strategic advisor at Prun, was the first to express his opinion: "It is not difficult to understand why the Georgians, Dunleys, and Lancys would propose a four-nation plan at this time."

"After all, the performance of our Prun army on the Bola battlefield greatly surprised the Gelian, Dunli and Lanxi people."

"Now, I think the entire Western Continent has a very clear understanding of the combat capabilities of our Pulun army."

"And our desire to expand our territory is a well-known fact in the Western Luo Continent."

"In fact, the Greenmen, the Dunlimen, and the Lanximen are equally ambitious on this issue."

"If given the chance, they would definitely not hesitate to take over the entire Western Luo Continent."

"However, the Gelians, Dunli, and Lanxi people now like to sing high-sounding slogans and constantly try to create a positive image for themselves."

"But, to put it bluntly—everyone knows exactly what kind of people they are!"

"Moreover, they are notorious for bullying the weak and fearing the strong..."

"Therefore, seeing our display of force on the Bola battlefield and our recent series of actions, the Glenn, Dunley, and Lanxi should have already felt the threat from Prun."

"In the end, the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people have always been wary of us Pulun people!"

"It is precisely for these reasons that my personal opinion is that it is quite in line with their usual style for the Georgians, Dunleyans, and Lancyans to propose the so-called Four Nations Plan at this time."

"Because they want to use this four-nation plan to make us feel the sincerity of the Western Luo Alliance, so that we can better play our role in resisting the Qian people."

"This four-country plan can be considered a win-win solution for them."

"While uniting Prun, they also fulfilled their long-unspoken ambitions!"

"You should know that once the Four Nations Plan is implemented, the Georgians, the Dunli people, and the Lanxi people will also reap great benefits."

"At that time, Prun, Dunley, Greenland, and Lanxi will achieve a win-win situation for all four countries."

"In other words, the Western Roman Alliance will actually be a four-nation alliance in the future."

"In reality, this situation is indeed much more efficient for the Western Luo Alliance in countering the threat from the Qian Kingdom than the current one!"

"Therefore, I believe that although the four-nation plan proposed by the United Kingdom, Dunley, and Lansey certainly has its own selfish motives, it is also a low-risk, high-return option for Prun."

"Therefore, if the four-country plan can be successfully implemented, it will definitely be a win-win situation for all four countries."

"Because this plan tightly binds our interests together with those of the Gelians, the Dunli, and the Lanxis."

“A huge overlap of interests is often the best indicator of the reliability of an alliance.”

"After all, everything else can be superficial, but the benefits are definitely there!"

Chaplin Prescott, Senior Strategic Advisor at Prun, glanced at Violet Algernon, who was listening intently to his points, and continued, "On the other hand, what about the people of Qian..."

"The fact that they secretly presented us with a so-called 'something' plan at this time is bound to raise suspicions."

"According to the intelligence we have, the Qian people's unification plan in Qianzhou is progressing quite smoothly."

"Almost all the countries of Qianzhou were forcibly incorporated into Qianzhou's rule by peacefully accepting the reality of the situation."

"Even if some armed resistance broke out in some areas, it was easily wiped out by the Daqian Zhenguo Army."

"Furthermore, given the series of preferential policies implemented by the people of Qian Kingdom in various newly established protectorates, the vast majority of the native inhabitants of Qian Continent have not rejected becoming part of Qian Kingdom."

"On the contrary, they are quite looking forward to and welcoming of being incorporated into the Qian Kingdom."

"In other words, the people of Qian Kingdom have actually been far more successful than we had anticipated in unifying and stabilizing the situation in Qianzhou!"

"Given the momentum of the Qian people, it shouldn't be long before they can create a relatively stable Qianzhou."

"Therefore, I believe that the Qian Kingdom's proposal of the 'East-West Plan' to us at this time is something we should be very wary of and deeply consider."

Chaplin Prescott said seriously, "Because I really can't see what benefit the people of Qian would get from proposing this 'East-West Plan'."

"Shen Moshen, the Chief of the Qian Kingdom, has boasted more than once that he will lead the Great Qian Zhenguo Army to establish an unprecedented unified world!"

"The world is Qian Kingdom, and Qian Kingdom is the world!"

"The meaning of these words is very clear—according to Shen Moshen, he simply wants to bring the entire world under the rule of the Qian Kingdom..."

"Therefore, I believe that the Qian Kingdom's plan is most likely a complete conspiracy!"

"If we really fall into this trap set by the Qian people, I'm afraid we won't even have a chance to regret it then..."

"The so-called 'East-West Plan' is very likely just a conspiracy by the Qian people to achieve their goal of world domination!"

Chaplin Prescott stated unequivocally, "In conclusion, from the perspective of Prun and the entire Western Continent—I believe our safest course of action is to adopt the Four Nations Plan."

"As for the plans proposed by the people of Qian, we should reject them."

"Furthermore, if necessary, we can even inform the Gelug, Dunli, and Lanxi people about the Qian people's 'East-West Plan' in the Alliance."

"Let them know—we have rejected the sinister plan of the Qian people."

"In that case, once the four-nation plan is achieved, the relationship between the Western Luo Alliance will be even stronger!"

"Moreover, we can use the Qian people's 'East-West Plan' to gain more benefits in the issue of the division of the four countries."

"After all, we have shown the sincerity of the Gren people, the Dunli people, and the Lanxi people."

"For the sake of the overall Western Luo Alliance, we resolutely rejected the 'olive branch' offered by the Qian Kingdom."

"This also proves our determination to fight against the Qian people."

"Now, it is our Pulun army that is directly facing the threat of the Daqian Zhenguo Army."

Chaplin Prescott paused, then continued, "Therefore, it's always reasonable for us to strive for more benefits when the Quad is implemented."

"After all, we face the greatest pressure for the sake of the entire Western Luo!"

“I agree with Prescott’s point of view,” Defence Secretary Lindbergh Jeffrey added, “considering the current situation.”

"Our agreement with the Qian people on the 'East-West Plan' will likely end up like trying to negotiate with a tiger for its skin..."

"The risks involved are far greater than those of the Quad plan!"

"As Prescott just mentioned—once we fall into the trap set by the Gan people, we will be doomed."

"Compared to that, the Quad plan is undoubtedly our safest option."

"Anyway, I don't really believe that someone like Shen Moshen would give us such a big 'pie' for no reason!"

"I believe that the Qian people's 'East-West Plan' is a complete conspiracy!"

"The situation in Xiluo, under the four-nation framework, is the most advantageous for confronting the Daqian Zhenguo Army."

"Now that the Four Nations Plan has been proposed, I think we should stand on the same side as the Green Alliance, the Lanxi, and the Dunli."

"The pie in the sky that the people of Qianguo are making is far too big!"

"So big that one can't help but question his motives."

Then, Plunge's Defense Minister Lindbergh Jeffrey added, "Furthermore, I think if we adopt the Quad plan..."

"Perhaps we can also use the 'East-West Plan' proposed by the Qian people to take some deceptive measures!"

"For example, this could mislead the people of Qian into thinking that we would accept their suggestions."

"This will also allow the four-nation plan of Xiluo to proceed more smoothly."

"Although the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people are not exactly trustworthy, they are aware of the threat that the Qian Kingdom poses to the entire Western Luo Continent."

"In this situation, they would definitely be willing to make concessions."

"Therefore, I believe that once the Quad plan is implemented, the benefits we can gain are quite considerable!"
