Earl Wei Lun could not raise any objections to the negotiation conditions proposed by Xu Yi.
Because after the war between the two sides, the losses suffered by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce were completely bearable, and the difficulties encountered could indeed be solved by other means, but the losses he suffered could not be compensated at all.
Originally, due to his continuous defeat of Earl Fran and several other lords, he had more than 30,000 soldiers capable of fighting. In terms of the number of soldiers alone, he was already one of the few lords in the Principality of Standing second only to Archduke Standing. .
And in terms of combat effectiveness, it may even surpass Archduke Standing.
But after the war with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, he found that he had no way to deal with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
It didn't matter if he couldn't break into Xu Yi's private territory. He couldn't even completely block the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and he was helpless against the sabotage team sent by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
The five hundred human guards led by Hart were invincible in Count Willon's territory. In just half a month, Count Willon lost thousands of elite soldiers and many important supply points.
,10,000,,bar, .nsb.om
If the stalemate between the two sides continues like this, Count Willen even believes that sooner or later he will be tortured to death by the mere 500 Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guards. Moreover, the most important loss caused by the war with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce was that he could no longer obtain any supplies of military magic machinery from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
While they were at war with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the four lords united in the south were still launching attacks on the newly occupied territory of Earl Weilon.
At first, Count Willen could easily block it and even counterattack.
But after several emergency instructions passed. Earl Willon discovered a serious problem.
Because of the war with Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Lost supplies of military magic machinery. Coupled with the huge consumption in the battle, the military magic machines in his men's hands that can still be used to continue fighting can no longer last long.
According to estimates, the supplies in his hands can only last for another week at most.
Unlike him, the four lords who went to war with him had already accumulated a large amount of military magic machinery supplies.
Every time he thought that he would lose the help of military magic machinery, but the four lords could still use it, Count Willen's heart immediately filled with chills.
He knows better than any other lord in the Principality of Standing what a terrifying increase in combat effectiveness military magic machines can bring to soldiers. Once this happens, his subordinates will never be able to stop the attack of the four lords. And if there is no supply of military magic machinery. He could only retreat steadily, and not only would he have to give in to the newly occupied territory, but maybe... no, the four lords would definitely not stop, and would definitely continue to attack until he was completely defeated.
Earl Weilun saw this situation very clearly, so in fact, even if Xu Yi did not come to him for negotiation, he would have already had the idea to take the initiative to negotiate with Xu Yi.
Although Xu Yi's conditions were excessive, they were compared to his own fate of being defeated and killed after being occupied by the four lords. But it is undoubtedly much easier to accept.
What's more, Xu Yi was making these requests at the same time. He also proposed to Count Willen a condition for assistance that he had not expected and that was also his dream.
As long as Count Weilun fully agrees to the other conditions proposed by Xu Yi, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will prioritize Count Weilun as an important partner of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, provide him with various military magic machines, and open them to him Various new military magic machines newly developed by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce!
When he heard this condition, Earl Weilun, who was still angry at Xu Yi's various requests, instantly lost all his anger, and without much consideration, he fully agreed to all the conditions Xu Yi made.
Because this so-called "important partner" in Xu Yi's mouth means that when Xu Yi provides various military magic machines to all the lords in the Principality of Standing, he will give priority to Count Weilun, but put other lords first. Think about it later.
This means that Earl Willon will once again have an absolute advantage in equipment when facing other lords.
And as long as he has an absolute advantage in military magic machinery, how can other lords in the Principality of Standing be his opponents
As long as you can defeat all the other lords in the principality, what does it mean to agree to the few conditions Xu Yi is proposing now
Earl Weilun and Xu Yi then had a pleasant conversation and initially determined the contents of the armistice agreement.
According to the stipulations of the armistice agreement, after the two sides complete the ceasefire, Earl Weilun will cede nearly 600 square kilometers of land in the north of the existing territory to Xu Yi as compensation, and must also keep all the people in this territory. as a complete cession.
After owning this territory, Xu Yi's private territory became a very long and narrow strip, just across the north of the Principality of Standing.
This territory borders the Endless Sea to the west, and borders the Principality of Standing and the Kingdom of Lulson to the east. If you look at it from a map, it looks like a hat covering the head of the Principality of Standing, which just separates the Principality of Standing. The road to the north is completely covered.
But Earl Willon didn't care much about this.
The Principality of Standing has always been extremely closed due to its terrain, and has very little contact with other countries on the Sainz continent. Even if the road to the north is completely blocked, it will not have any impact on Count Willen.
What's more, this territory was only divided between Xu Yi and nominally still belonged to the Principality of Standing. If the Principality of Standing wanted to enter the Black Rice Wasteland through the north, Xu Yi had no reason to refuse.
Besides, the manpower of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is limited after all, and it is no problem to defend the previous territory. It is simply impossible to defend such a narrow territory with no natural moat for defense.
So when Earl Willon signed the armistice agreement, he was in a very relaxed mood.
In his opinion, even if Xu Yi asked him to keep all the free people in the territory this time, it would still not pose any threat. On the contrary, it might become a failure.
Earl Willon is very familiar with the situation of the people in his territory.
All the men in the territory who were well-dressed and could be used for fighting have now entered the army under his sign. Most of the remaining men are the old, weak, sick and disabled, as well as women and children. They do not help at all to improve the combat strength of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, but only will become a drag.
Xu Yi left these useless people behind, which would only increase his burden.
When Xu Yi left, Earl Weilun even pretended to tell Xu Yi with a serious face, asking Xu Yi to treat the people he left behind well.
Xu Yi agreed immediately, while Earl Wei Lun kept snickering in his heart.
Does this Xu Yi really think that he has taken advantage of him? That's ridiculous!

"I think Earl Weilun must have thought that he had taken advantage of him." Xu Yi handed the armistice agreement to Kennard. "This guy who only thinks about fighting must not have thought that I don't want this territory and these people just for fighting."
"How can a guy like him understand your thoughts, President?" Kennard laughed, took the armistice agreement and read it carefully, nodded and said: "Very good, President, in this way, Your private territory can be connected with the Black Rice Wasteland and the Moon Shadow Tribe, and can be connected to the Luersun Kingdom in the east. As long as the Slu Highway is completed, the products of our Chamber of Commerce can enter the Luersun Kingdom very smoothly. and other places on the mainland.”…
"This is not the most important thing. Now the situation within the Lampali Kingdom has changed. The biggest obstacle our Chamber of Commerce encountered before no longer exists. Transportation on land is not a problem. On the contrary, many times it is through the Lampali Kingdom. It's more convenient. The most important thing in requesting such a territory is to connect Heimi Wasteland with our existing land, so that the overall development plan will be much easier." Xu Yidao.
Hearing Xu Yi mention the internal situation in the Lampali Kingdom, Kennard glanced at Xu Yi with a slightly strange expression, hesitated, and asked: "Mr. President, why are you unwilling to attend the coronation of Her Majesty Queen Sevini?" What about the ceremony? Our Chamber of Commerce will definitely carry out more in-depth cooperation with the Kingdom in the future, and it will be very helpful for us to take this opportunity to deepen our relationship with Her Majesty the Queen."
Xu Yi turned his head and glanced in the direction of Lampali Kingdom, and slowly shook his head: "Just think of it as my willfulness."
Hearing the complicated emotions revealed in Xu Yi's tone, Kennard's expression changed, he looked at Xu Yi and laughed.
"Okay, Mr. President, it's rare for you to be willful. I have nothing to say."
Xu Yi smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, I can be willful in this regard, but I can't be willful in your matters. It's getting late, so hurry up and pack up and go to Hui'an Weimar. Allen The Earl must be waiting for you to go home and reunite with him. If I keep you here again, Earl Allen will definitely blame me."
Kennard shook his head: "Father has always supported me to stay by your side. Even if I don't go back to spend the New Year with him, he won't say anything. The one who really has resentment towards you, Chairman, is Sophia... "
Hearing the name "Sofia", Xu Yi suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Isn't Sophia already engaged? You advise her on my behalf to treat me as her fantasy. It's better for her to forget about me completely in the future."
"If you can forget it, then things would be much easier." Kennard sighed softly. "President, I know Sophia's character very well. She values the things she really cares about much more than the average person. If she does something surprising because of this, it would not be unusual."
Xu Yi glanced at Kennard in confusion: "What does she want to do?"
Kennard shook his head: "I couldn't guess. I'm just reminding you of the possibility."
Xu Yi thought for a while, frowned and shook his head.
Don't tell him what the little girl is thinking, most people in this world can't figure it out.
But no matter how bold Sophia is, what can she really do
