Chapter 552: Diplomacy and Deception


Recalling the great achievements of the great Emperor whom he served, little Franz was so excited that he couldn't help himself. otbnkotgt And at that time, where were the Hereford family, the large border area, and the Russian Gothic Empire?

Yes, there was actually no Russian Gothic Empire at that time.

It was precisely because of William's emergence, and because of William's great leadership and powerful combat effectiveness that the Russian Gothic Empire emerged.

Therefore, the Russian Gothic Empire became the most powerful empire near the apex in the world.

Only in this way can the Russian Gothic Empire attract attention.

Only a small person like him, who was originally penniless, can become a guest of Asha of the Zoroastrian Empire.

When he thought of this, little Franz's admiration for William was like the water of the Yellow River that was out of control.

The Zoroastrian ministers, soldiers and eunuchs beside him were surprised to notice that this guy's expression suddenly became more unpredictable.

In this way, little Franz and his five attendants, adjutants and envoys, after going through the inspection of three checkpoints and taking off all their swords, saw the Zoroastrian Empire. ruler.

A Shah named Darius IV.

According to the Gothic court etiquette, treating the other party as a king, after bowing to the other party, little Franz asked the envoy to present a gift.

Quite exquisite glassware, in addition to exquisite bone china crafts, gilt mirrors and clocks.

The outstanding industrial power of the Hereford family is fully reflected in all these handicrafts.

All this pleased Darius Shah.

The look he looked at little Franz became gentler.

It was just a matter of course for the ministers around him that some of these gifts would be given to them by the Shah, which meant that they could all benefit from this matter.

Of course, as a good-faced monarch, Darius Shah could not simply watch them give him things while not giving them himself.

He soon returned the favor with considerable gifts.

In addition to the most exquisite gold and silver vessels, there are also the most exquisite cashmere carpets, tapestries, porcelain and silk from the East.

In addition, there are local specialty spices.

Cloves, star anise, fennel, etc.

These things mean a lot to the Empire.

In fact, a long time ago, it was said that if the West was more pursuing Eastern silk, tea, and handicrafts and porcelain, it would be better to say that it was more pursuing Eastern spices.

Of course, the only spices are not produced in the Dragon Kingdom, but from Southeast Asia, India, and of course the Middle East.

These areas have all accumulated huge wealth relying on various spices, pepper, pepper, star anise, etc.

"Thank you very much.

This is exactly what we expected."

As if he had thought of it before, after hearing that there were a lot of spices in the gift given in return, little Franz smiled happily.

And thanked King Darius repeatedly.

Then he looked satisfied and ready to leave.

This made King Darius, who had received the news before, feel a little disappointed.

To be honest, although there are doubts about the Hereford family and the outside world that the Russian Gothic Empire may intervene in their own empire.

But on the verge of national subjugation and annihilation, the other party no longer cares about anything.

The people of the Zoroastrian Empire made calculations, and then discovered that the only person around them who might be able to assist them, the person with the greatest possibility of assisting them, was the Hereford family, the Russian Gothic Empire.

This empire once had a war with the Ottoman Empire of the Dark Elves.

At the same time, it also controlled the Cuman-Kipcha steppe, bordering the Uzbeks.

In terms of the political and military thinking of making friends from far away and attacking close by, this is the most suitable ally.

The problem is that it seems that this envoy, and the emperor standing behind the envoy, have no intention of intervening in this war.

That's pretty much how weird people are.

If at this moment, little Franz was very active in giving him advice and said that if necessary, he would form an alliance with him to fight against the enemy.

Then Darius Shah would definitely feel doubtful, and would suspect that the other party was not well-intentioned, harbored evil intentions, and wanted to do this or that.

But now, little Franz didn't have any similar thoughts at all, and he felt very unwilling.

"Messenger, please don't leave in a hurry," Darius said: "I am very curious about your country and its monarch.

If possible, could you please tell me and my ministers about your experience?

Where is the empire?”

Hearing what he said, little Franz smiled and said: "Of course.

Promoting the glory of the great empire and His Majesty the Emperor to the world is also an important mission as a diplomatic envoy."

He said this to Darius Shah.

Ah tell.

From the history of the Hereford family, and from the rise of the Hereford family, to the wars experienced in recent times.

A series of data including the population, geographical location and area under his rule were all stated, which surprised Darius and subconsciously allowed him to trust what he said.

Because in his words, little Franz did not talk about the boundless land, the endless territory, the population as many as the stars in the sky, and the army as dark clouds.

Such exaggerated metaphors and rhetorical methods.

This is also the vocabulary that diplomats from traditional classical empires like to use.

Although it sounds quite powerful.

But in fact it is not feasible at all.

Very unrealistic.

But little Franz, who had studied at the Imperial Academy and Novgorod University, was different.

He prefers to use mathematical, data-based, organized and logical language to describe it all.

Therefore, except for a series of data that the empire currently classifies as secrets that he has not revealed, most of the data is true.

Because before this, the two sides had not breathed each other.

I never said anything about this or anything.

They were all impromptu speeches and conversations, so Darius Shah felt that it was impossible for the other party to have an idea and tell so much detailed data in one breath.

Think about it this way.

Then what the other party said must be true.

Darius Shah felt very excited when he thought that his enemy still had such a powerful enemy of his enemy.

If a treaty of alliance with the other party can be reached and troops are sent to support the Zoroastrian Empire when it is attacked by the other party, then the strategic situation of the Zoroastrian Empire will definitely be much better.

"It's just that the other party seems to have no intention of doing this at all."

Darius Shah thought in his heart.

Then he asked tentatively: "So, the relationship between your country and those dark elves is very bad?"

"It was indeed bad once.

But that is in the past."

The other party said with a smile: "The war with the dark elves is over.

Now, we have determined the border between the two sides and signed an armistice agreement.

Today, we are in a state of truce.

We have sent ambassadors to each other, and business relations have been restored.

In fact, to tell you the truth, the Ottoman Empire is one of our country's most promising emerging markets.

There are a large number of domestic factories and big businessmen who all hope to conduct business with the Ottoman Empire.

"That's it."

Hearing what little Franz said, the other party became even more discouraged.

Just when Darius Shah was thinking about what to say, another Zoroastrian minister spoke on the opposite side: "But, don't your country want to take back the Crimean Peninsula?

If this peninsula remains If it is in the hands of the dark elves, then your country’s strategic situation may be a little bad.”

Little Franz was a little surprised, and then looked to the side.

The person who said this saw a somewhat unusual guy.

This guy doesn't have a big beard like most people, but has two mustaches.

He looks quite energetic, and his eyes are very sharp.

"Nadir."

He introduced himself: "One of the most loyal generals of King Darius."

The other party saluted little Franz, caressing his chest, and then said this.

"What you said does make some sense."

After lying to him and looking at Darius Shah, seeing that he was not unhappy because of his sudden interruption, little Franz also bowed to him.

Then he replied: "It's just that the current situation in the empire does not allow us to make too big a move.

You should know that the person who rules the entire Old Continent now is Briton, who is not friendly with the Goths.

People.

They control almost the entire empire.

In this case, our tactic is to hide our capabilities and bide our time.

In order to prevent any war from causing unnecessary losses to us.

In order to encourage the ambition of those Britons to wage war against us, we had to do this.

"He said this very calmly.

Nadir on the opposite side also didn't know how to answer: "But in this way, your country's strategic situation seems to be" "To be honest, these are not things that a small envoy like me can handle."

Little Franz said with a smile.

That's it.

Seeing that this guy is a bit out of touch.

The other party waved his hand rather irritably.

Then, someone took little Franz and his deputies back to the embassy to rest. 160420oshow7:
