Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

After a group of senior executives from Pulun expressed their opinions,

The conclusion drawn was that the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi peoples were unreliable, but the Qian people were equally unreliable.

Both the four-country plan and the east-west plan involve considerable risks.

The high-level meeting was so intense that even Plump President Violet Algernon found it difficult to make a decision.

After all, through detailed analysis and discussion, everyone realized that the serious consequences of either the Four Nations Plan or the East-West Plan spiraling out of control would be unbearable for Prun...

Originally, according to the ideas of President Violet Algernon of Prun.

It definitely has to be big, not small!

On one side is the entire Xiluo Continent, and on the other side is a quarter of the Xiluo Continent.

Bringing the entire continent of Xiluo under Prun's control was undoubtedly an immense temptation for Violet Algernon!

Therefore, before this high-level meeting was held.

Violet Algernon's idea was to cooperate with the people of Qian to implement the "East-West Plan," while the "Four-Nation Plan" would be carried out as part of the "East-West Plan."

In other words, it was true that Violet Algernon's original plan was to unite the people of Qian to create an East-West balance of power, but it was a lie to accept the Four Kingdoms Plan and establish a Western Four Kingdoms balance of power.

Because what Violet Algernon wants is not just a quarter of the continent of Xiluo, but the entire continent of Xiluo!

Violet Algernon also wanted to personally transform Prun into an entity like the Great Qian Empire......................

The thought of turning the entire Xiro into Prun's territory and becoming the greatest Prun president in history made Violet Algernon so excited that she couldn't sleep!

But now, after listening to the more rational analysis and opinions of the crowd, Violet Algernon finally managed to control the madness and fanaticism within her.

Despite the immense temptation, Violet Algernon, who was obsessed with expanding her territory, was not blinded by it.

This was quite unexpected.

At least, the fact that Violet Algernon remained rational in the face of such great temptation and did not gamble recklessly like a gambler was truly beyond Shen Moshen's expectations.

However, the main reason why Vaolet Algernon was not blinded by greed was that the Gelians, Dunli, and Lancis happened to propose a so-called "Four Kingdoms Plan" at the same time.

If it weren't for the interference of the "Four Nations Plan," given Violet Algernon's obsession with dominating the Western Roman Empire, she would probably have agreed without hesitation to create a world order of East and West with the Qian Kingdom...

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

"The people of Qian have now turned the entire Qianzhou into their territory."

"Qian Kingdom already had the largest territory and population in the world, and now it goes without saying that it is even larger."

"If we don't want to see the future world dominated by the Qian Kingdom, where everything is decided by the Qian Kingdom people."

"We must create a unified continent of Xiluo."

"Only a completely unified Western Luo Continent is qualified to stand on equal footing with the Qian Kingdom."

"Therefore, for the future of Xiro and for the future of our Prun."

"We must replicate what the Qian people did in Qianzhou in Xiluo!"

"From a holistic and long-term strategic perspective, the four-nation plan proposed by the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people can only be a transitional plan and a phase."

"Our ultimate goal is to create a unified Western Continent!"

After much deliberation, Violet Algernon surveyed the assembled Prun executives and emphasized, "And only we, the people of Prun, can accomplish this goal!"

"The problems and risks that everyone just mentioned are all real, and no one can say for sure whether these risks will actually occur."

"In reality, the current world situation is a gamble."

“Every choice we make carries inherent risks, and that’s unavoidable.”

"No matter what, we have to face this high-stakes gamble!"

“Risks and opportunities coexist.”

"Since the East-West Plan and the Quad Plan each have their own risks, and we must make a choice."

"I've come up with a simpler and clearer way to help us make the final decision!"

As she spoke, Violet Algernon paused, her brow furrowing slightly, as if she had made her final decision: "That is—everything should be based on our long-term interests!"

"We will choose whichever option is most conducive to helping us achieve our ultimate goal..."

"The President means..." Lindbergh Jeffrey, the Defense Minister of Plen, began, "We want to cooperate with the Qian people?"

"No!"

What I mean is—don't choose either of them!

Violet Algernon shook her head: "Since we can't rely on either side, we'll choose to proceed according to our own plan!"

"We won't offend the people of Qian Kingdom."

"However, the troops stationed in the Bola region to defend against the Daqian Zhenguo Army should be appropriately increased."

"As for the Qian Kingdom, we must use tangible benefits to ensure that the Qian people do not take advantage of the situation."

"We must first stabilize the people of Qian Kingdom."

“Tell them—if they don’t threaten our rear during the war on the Western Continent, we are willing to give all the overseas colonies of the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people on other continents to the Qian Kingdom for free after the war in Western Continent ends!”

"Not cooperate with the Qian people? Keep them at bay?" Defense Minister Lindbergh Jeffrey of Plen asked, puzzled, "President..."

"If we want to keep the Qian people in check, why don't we just go ahead and agree to their proposed 'East-West Plan'?"

"If we agree to cooperate with the people of Qian, we will become allies with Qian."

"Wouldn't that be a better way to appease the people of Qian?"

"Moreover, what the president meant by the outbreak of the Western Luo War was—that we feigned agreement with the four-nation plan involving the Great Union, Dunli, and Lanxi to wipe out the other small Western Luo countries?"

"Should we wait until we've dealt with the other Western Luo countries before breaking ties with the Great Union, Dunli, and Lanxi?"

"Of course not..."

Violet Algernon said seriously, "The Grenadiers, the Dunli, and the Lanci are all unreliable."

"The risk of being betrayed by such scoundrels as allies is far too great!"

"This time—we must join forces with other Western Luo countries to first deal with these three scoundrels: Grenli, Dunli, and Lanxi!"

"In a few days, I will invite the Georgians, Dunleyans, and Lancyans to Limburg under the pretext of discussing the specific details of the 'Four Nations Plan'!"

"At that time, I will deliberately guide the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people to explain their 'Four-Nation Plan' in detail."

"The intelligence department should make proper arrangements in the meeting room to record our conversation. It would be even better if we could secretly preserve the complete video and audio recordings."

"Once this content is leaked, I think the effect will be excellent!"

"At that time, we just need to let the other Western Luo countries see the true colors of the Gelian people, Dunli people, and Lanxi people."

"Then, we stepped forward, stood on the side of justice, and announced the formation of a punitive organization."

“Prun announced that he is firmly opposed to the ‘Quad’ plan.”

"Furthermore, Pulun will steadfastly do what we should do to maintain peace and stability on the Western Continent."

"At that time, with the exposure of the 'Four-Nation Plan,' Western Rome will definitely be in a one-sided situation."

"The Western Luo kingdoms will surely join our punitive expedition to jointly punish the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people!"

Violet Algernon glanced at the crowd and continued, "Since everyone's motives are impure, then don't blame us for going to extremes!"

"However, if we want other Western Luo countries to join our camp to fight against the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people, some small Western Luo countries may have some concerns."

Defense Secretary Lindbergh Jeffrey subtly expressed his concerns.

After all, Pulun has always been the most ambitious being on the Western Continent.

Faced with such a "four-nation plan" that could obviously quickly satisfy Prun's ambitions, Prun actually chose to refuse and, in the name of justice, took the lead in opposing the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people!

It should be noted that for a long time, the small kingdom of Xiluo had a much greater fear of the Pulun people than of the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people.

Therefore, Lindbergh Jeffrey's concerns are a very real issue.

“As long as there are enough interests involved, these countries will stand on our side.”

Violet Algernon, however, was not worried about this at all: "We can sign all sorts of treaties with them to put their minds at ease."

"Of course, most importantly—I will solemnly promise to the Western Luo Kingdoms and put it into a written treaty."

"After eliminating and quelling the serious disruption to the harmony within the Western Roman Empire by Gerlian, Dunley, and Lancy."

"We are willing to cede two-thirds of the territory of the Gren, Dunli, and Lanxi to the Western Luo Kingdoms for equal distribution!"

“But we in Pulun only need one-third of it.”

“They should know very well that we in Prun have contributed the most to this war, and it is perfectly reasonable for us to take a third of the territory.”

In fact, the condition proposed by Violet Algernon could no longer be described as reasonable.

Giving away two-thirds of the territory of the Great Union, Dunli, and Lanxi to those small Western Luo countries was actually a huge loss for Prun.

The sincerity shown by the people of Pulun is truly remarkable.

"What? After taking down Glen, Dunley, and Lansey, we only need a third of the territory?"

"Then we're really at a disadvantage!"

"Yes! If a war of punitive expedition breaks out, we will definitely be the main force of the punitive expedition, and the army of Pulun will definitely contribute the most."

"Why should those small, insignificant Western Luo kingdoms get to take two-thirds of their territory? That's just too unfair!"

"This distribution method is simply too unfair to us in Prun..."

"They naturally won't have any objections to this distribution plan, but it's us Pulun people who will suffer!"

Violet Algernon's plan for the distribution of postwar territory immediately sparked discussion among the high-ranking officials of Prun present.

Everyone was skeptical – they believed that Violet Algernon's proposed postwar distribution plan was far too unfair to Prun!

Even if the intention was to concede benefits to gain the participation of the Western Luo kingdoms in the campaign against the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi peoples, this concession is simply too great...

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

Have you said enough?

Faced with the intense reaction from the crowd, Violet Algernon calmly gestured for everyone to quiet down.

"Since I, Algernon, became the president of Plen, when have I ever made Plen suffer a loss?"

“As I just said, we want those small countries of Xiluo to join us in fighting against the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people.”

"Then we must make them believe that they will reap enormous benefits once this matter is accomplished!"

"We promised to give them two-thirds of the territory of Glenn, Dunley, and Lansey so that they would be motivated to fight alongside us against Glenn, Dunley, and Lansey."

"If you want these small Western Roman countries to contribute more, you have to give them enough motivation."

Violet Algernon smiled and said, "As for how their territories will be divided after we deal with the Greenmen, the Dunli, and the Lanci, that's up to us, Prun!"

"Don't worry about what kind of treaties we signed with these small Western Roman countries before the war."

“The treaty was destined to be broken from the day it was signed!” Violet Algernon said nonchalantly. “We have to learn to be flexible and adaptable in these matters.”

"Being too rigid will really put you at a disadvantage!"

Violet Algernon smiled: "Whatever conditions we agree to for those small Western Roman countries."

"After the war ended, these conditions automatically became ineffective."

"Because all of this is just a deceptive tactic employed by us, Prun, to achieve our ultimate strategic goal."

Then, Violet Algernon concluded, "This doesn't count as betrayal."

"Because the whole thing was a strategic operation from the very beginning."

"This is also a necessary means to create a unified Western Continent!"
