    Chapter 315 Imperial Envoy

    Kasol carefully looked up and down at the young man in front of him, as if he wanted to imprint the image of the other person firmly in his heart.  The glory of the empire was trampled to pieces by the opponent at this moment.  The first time he heard this young man's name was during the widespread riot that occurred in the hinterland of the empire. Not long ago, the young man was jokingly given the name "Escaped Charno Rabbit" by the imperial nobles.  It dealt a heavy blow to the Imperial people. The loss of six first-class fleets may not be a big deal, but the death of a famous interstellar general shocked the nobles greatly.

    As a special envoy of the military, Kasol feels deeply ashamed of the responsibility he has shouldered this time.  But considering the unpredictable fate that the large number of soldiers stranded in Charno are about to face, this meeting is necessary.  According to the calculations of the Empire Headquarters, with the series of great changes caused by the defeat of the Second Alliance Battle, the Charno people will suddenly become the most powerful force in this star field.  More than half of the empire's occupied territory will have to be abandoned.  In fact, as the war to invade the Holy Alliance star field begins, the empire is unable to maintain the current interstellar defense line.  Especially as Charnor continues to invade the Empire's long interstellar supply lines, this situation will continue to worsen.

    While Kasol was observing Yi Lexiang, Yi Lexiang was also observing the thin and tall imperial envoy in front of him, who always had a kind smile on his face.  Kasol wore an imperial uniform without any markings of military rank.  If he remembered correctly, this military uniform represented Jiale's homeland, the Merrick Empire.  The military uniform fit well, but Yi Lexiang quickly made his own judgment. Kosol's identity was a special envoy of the Imperial Ministry, but it did not necessarily mean that he was also a soldier himself.  The uniform without any rank insignia is enough to illustrate this point.  Negotiator?  Or a politician?

    Yi Lexiang sat down minding his own business while making judgment.  The meeting was held in a small combat conference room of a Charno starship, and the furnishings were quite simple.  Before the meeting, Li Shaojun specially arranged for the orderly to tidy up the room, put in several pots of green plants, removed the oval conference table in the room, and replaced it with a long sofa moved from the captain's room. In front of the sofa  A transparent glass coffee table was placed, and between the two sofas, Li Shaojun also specially placed a push-type wine bar filled with various drinks, trying to make this the first diplomatic event since the war between Charno and the Imperial Alliance.  Contact doesn't look so gung-ho.

    Kasol also slowly took his seat.  He has obtained some information from some of Yi Lexiang's performances.  This young general who created the miracle of war is obviously a very pragmatic general, without too many false politeness.  This is also consistent with the description of the general's origins provided by the Ministry of Intelligence.  Kosol remembered that he had read through it countless times and remembered the few pieces of information about the general that he knew by heart.  This general was born a commoner, had no family background, and had never joined any force. The most surprising thing is that this general was not a graduate of a military college. The earliest military records show that he was just an ordinary recruit in the military academy.  Tong's Pvt.  From then on, the records about him were blank until the emergence of Oret.  Now the empire headquarters has reason to believe that this blank record should be a secret planetary development plan of the Charno people.  But why a recruit in the new military camp would have the opportunity to join a highly confidential secret military operation has puzzled the intelligence officers of the Ministry of Intelligence.

    When Kasol left the base camp and hurried to Charno, the emergency meeting of the Imperial Joint Chiefs of Staff was still under intense discussion. The generals who were usually aloof and seemed to pay no attention to anyone were still caught off guard and stunned.  It analyzes General Charno and the changes brought about by it.  These issues are not what Kasol should be concerned about. He is just a negotiator, and his task is to maximize the acceptance of the young general's suggestions by the military.

    "General Yi," Kasol said nothing after seeing Yi Lexiang take his seat, as if waiting for himself to speak.  This approach, which was not in line with diplomatic etiquette at all, made him feel quite uncomfortable, and even made him feel dumbfounded that he had no idea what to do.  Yi Lexiang, who did not follow common sense, made him feel even more stressed.  "On behalf of the Imperial Alliance, I deeply admire the general's outstanding command skills in previous battles."

    Yi Lexiang's face showed a hint of surprise, and he soon realized that this was just a gorgeous diplomatic rhetoric.  He waved his hand, "Let's get straight to the point. I want to know the real purpose of your contact with me."

    All the responses Kasol had planned earlier immediately fell apart in front of Yi Lexiang's straightforwardness.  He began to regret having accepted the mission.

    "On behalf of the Imperial Ministry, I hope that the general will allow us to calmly withdraw our soldiers from the front line. In return, we can return part of the occupied Charno territory." Kasol decided to go straight, obviously facing thisFor a general, those flowery diplomatic rhetoric mean nothing.

    "According to the current situation, even if you don't return it to us, we can still pick it up ourselves."

    "Your Excellency, General, in that case you will need to lead your fleet to conquer planet by planet. If you can agree with our suggestions, we will actively withdraw. In this way, you can fight without blood"

    "In fact, the imperial intelligence we intercepted a few days ago shows that you have granted free discretion to frontline officers. I believe that we will not suffer much loss except a little waste of energy, because no noble nobleman with a clear mind will do so.  Commander Fang will choose war without the cooperation of Starfleet." Yi Lexiang interrupted Kasol.

    "" Kasol didn't know how to respond to Yi Lexiang's question. He didn't understand where the Charno people got the news.  This order was only given to the top commander of the planet's defense. Logically speaking, it is unlikely that the Charno people would learn this information.  Did the Charno really intercept and decipher this information?

    "I think you don't know much about military matters. In fact, if I recover the astrological balls one by one, I can also obtain a large number of imperial prisoners. These will become bargaining chips for us to negotiate again in the future. Do you hope  Should we talk about it then, or should we solve the problem once and for all now?¡±

    "" Kasol looked at Yi Lexiang speechlessly, stood up, found a cup from the mobile bar cart that was not neatly arranged, and poured himself a glass of red wine. At this moment, he felt like giving up his pick.  The urge to quit, negotiate, negotiate, only negotiation can solve the problem.  The general's straightforward language trampled the art of negotiation to the lowest point. If he had known this, perhaps the military department could just send a random officer to complete this task.  Because this general doesn't talk to you at all, he just waits for you to reveal your trump card, and then decides whether to accept it or not.

    "What does the general mean" Kasol reluctantly threw away the annoyance in his heart and asked tentatively.

    Yi Lexiang pressed a few buttons, and a holographic image of the Republic of Charno appeared in the center of the room. "All the star fields from Tuna Star to Leko Star have been returned"

    "This is impossible!" Kasol let out an exaggerated exclamation, as if the image Yi Lexiang painted had far exceeded his bottom line.  The unique cunning of a negotiator revived in him, and he temporarily forgot that the opponent he faced was not as familiar with the rules of the game as he was.  Soon, his exaggerated performance was mercilessly whipped by his opponents.

    Yi Lexiang smiled and pointed at the holographic image, "There is a reason why I made such a request. And I believe this is also the minimum limit given to you by the Imperial Army. The invisible line from Tuna Star to Lyko Star  The boundary line perfectly divides the territory occupied by the Empire into two parts. When setting up this dividing line, I carefully avoided the interstellar routes leading to Tianlun. Returning these planets will not affect the Empire.  After the return of the logistics supply line, it will not pose a substantial threat to the strategic deployment of the star field retained by the empire"

    Kasol stared at the boastful Yi Lexiang in stunned silence. These descriptions sounded quite familiar to him. The military staff officer who accompanied him kept telling the same reasons along the way, which made him irritated.  But when the same words came from his opponent's mouth, the shock was undoubtedly more intense.

    "Well, you didn't raise any objection? This shows that we have reached a consensus on this point." Yi Lexiang glanced at the silent Kasol and continued, "Next, let's talk about the issue of ransom for prisoners."

    "Ransom?" Kasol felt that he was increasingly unable to keep up with the general's thoughts.

    "Yes, we allow you to safely evacuate the soldiers within the demarcation line, but in fact these people were originally our prisoners of war. Obviously according to imperial law, you should pay a ransom."

    "Butbutonly the nobles enjoy the ransom system."

    ¡°Is that so? Well, then let¡¯s operate in accordance with the Slave Act¡±

    "But the 'Slave Act' has been abolished for almost a hundred years." Castle couldn't help but remind,

    "Oh, then the wartime interstellar convention is good, let's exchange prisoners of war. Since we are the victor of this battle, we have the right to enjoy the priority rule when exchanging prisoners of war. Taking into account the interests of both parties, you can see that according to the ratio of 1:1.5  How about a prisoner exchange?¡±

    "General, the war is not over yet, and the prisoner exchange regulations do not apply here. And you are not the victorious party."

    "Oh? That means the negotiation failed, right? Wu Wei, send the special envoy away." Yi Lexiang raised his head and said to the corner of the room,
