When Moncati was busy looking for ways to meet Wufeng, Luo Beiren's negotiating mission finally came to Qingyang. The head of the mission was naturally Doni, an old acquaintance of Wufeng a few years ago. After a brief meeting with Wufeng, the negotiators from both sides quickly entered the role. Luo Beiren could not afford to delay. After all, hundreds of thousands of herders crowded in the central region, which brought great pressure, and some troops expeditions to the south had to gather on the west side of the designated ceasefire line to set up a defensive posture. Although the Northwest people had already clarified the wishes of ceasefire negotiations, no one dared to joke about such things. Once the Northwest Army really formed an alliance with the Chidi people, they suddenly went crazy and sneaked forward, and Luo Beiren was not prepared, and they were afraid that there would be a danger of extermination immediately. Therefore, even if the Western Front was difficult and urgent, they had to retain the necessary troops on the ceasefire line.

After arranging the negotiations with Luo Beiren, Wufeng generously accepted Viscount Moncati's request and arranged an hour to talk to him. The conversation was very brief. After listening to Viscount Moncati's reasons again, Wufeng only raised one question, that is, the Northwest could relax the punishment of Luo Beiren in order to limit the Chidi people, but he hoped that the Hansen Alliance could show the necessary sincerity to prove their friendship to the Northwest, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the military that had paid a huge price for this battle.

After some bargaining, Viscount Montcatre initially agreed to make some concessions on the customs circulation tariffs of Northwest commodity in the alliance after returning to the alliance, that is, the reduction will be made, and in principle, agreed that Northwest merchants will enjoy the same treatment as the Hansen Alliance for investment and business. Of course, these issues will be implemented after Mr. Viscount returns to the alliance to report to the power of the alliance. Under Viscount's enthusiastic invitation, Wufeng agreed that the Northwest will send a full-power envoy to visit the Hansen Alliance and make detailed and specific discussions on issues of concern to both sides.

When Viscount Moncati was busy embarking on his way back to the West, Plovland also accepted Wufeng's appointment. As the liaison officer of the Northwest to the Western Continent, he would also return to the Western Continent soon. His main job was to recruit various talents from the Western Continent to the Northwest, attract investment, and understand the development and changes in the various aspects of the Western Continent countries. Another job was Plovland's favorite, which was to contact the Western Continent countries on behalf of the Northwest. As a liaison officer, he could negotiate with officials of the Western Continent countries on industrial, commerce, cultural exchanges, etc. to promote exchanges and developments between the two sides. He was authorized to invite politicians from the Western Continent to visit the Northwest at any time on behalf of the Northwest, which made Plovland very honored.

Of course, Plovran did not know that Wufeng and Diao Su, the head of the Security Bureau, had a secret conversation with his fiancée. The content of the conversation was not declassified until the establishment of the Brilliant Empire. Many people were speculating whether the fiancée, as the friend of His Majesty, had some kind of intimate relationship with His Majesty the Emperor, but this groundless news could not be confirmed. Miss Dereser was extremely active in the diplomatic circle of the Western Continent since then, and her popularity was no less than that of her fiancée. As for what it brought to the northwest and even later empires, I am afraid that no one except Wufeng and Diao Su would know.

The negotiations between Luo Beiren and the Northwest went very smoothly, and even Doni was surprised by the generousness shown by the Northwest. Although he also knew that the Northwest did not want Luo Bei to be depressed or even collapsed, under such an absolute advantage, no one would be harsh on his side, but the Northwest did not seem to plan to do this.

In addition to returning it to the Mots in Qingchuan Haizi and its surrounding areas, the northwest did not seem to intend to occupy this vast land, including Ulanji, which made Doni unable to understand. In his memory, in the last war, Li Wufeng even gave up the ransom of Luo Bei's prisoners in order to obtain the land in the northwest corner of Qingyang. But why did he turn it back now? A fertile land with abundant water and grass like Ulanji is now controlled by the northwest. How could he be uninterested?

The 70,000 prisoners of Luo Beiren were also the most important negotiation issue. According to common practice, this required Luo Beiren to pay at least 3.5 million imperial gold coins or equivalent materials to redeem it. This was simply unbearable for Luo Beiren, especially in a confrontation with the Chidi people or even a small-scale fire, the consumption of various materials and funds was even more amazing. How could such a large sum of money be raised for ransom? But these prisoners were also of great importance to Luo Bei. If the redemption could not only form an army immediately, but also encourage morale was also very important. If the soldiers who were still fighting heard the news that even the prisoners were unwilling to redeem it, it would have an extremely adverse impact on morale.

This series of problems plagued Doni, and until the arrival of the other party's negotiators, Doni still couldn't let go.

To Doni's surprise, the other party's negotiators seemed to be able to understand the difficulties of Luo Bei people now. The 70,000 prisoners were collected by Luo Bei people first. As for the ransom issue, they could be solved by loans first. The Northwest Bank was responsible for borrowing the loan, with an annual interest rate of 15.5% and a guarantee of the tariffs on the northern trade routes. This made Doni very satisfied. After all, if you lose the battle, you will have to pay a price, and this price is already unexpected. What surprised Doni even more was that

The negotiators led by Wang Liao even revealed a message that the Northwest government was even willing to provide a guarantee for Luo Bei people to provide a certain amount of loans to the Northwest Bank to alleviate Luo Bei's current predicament. This made Doni even feel that he was dreaming. One side of the war borrowed loans to the other side, which was a bit fantastic. Fortunately, Doni was also calm and just expressed his gratitude politely, saying that he needed to consider and report to the chief before he could make a reply as a delaying strategy.

Regarding the issue of expropriation of eastern territories, the Northwest proposed a compromise solution, that is, to draw a line of 100 miles west of Ulanji, and to become an unprepared area, it still belongs to Luobei people, but it is not allowed to stay in Luobei troops. Luobei troops can only be stationed in areas 200 miles away from Wulanji, and more than 500 troops within a range of 200 miles must be notified in advance of the Northwest garrison of Ulanji. The Northwest Army only symbolically retains a division garrison in Ulanji, and fleeing herdsmen can freely return to the original pasture land. As the core of the original east territories, Ulanji will implement a policy of opening up to the northwest. Northwest merchants are welcome to invest and set up factories in Ulanji, and the tax rate is equal to that of Luobei people.

Doni left with satisfaction and a hint of doubt. He was very happy about the successful signing of the contract, but the generous manner in the northwest also made him feel a little worried. But in general, the negotiation was gratifying, and at least it could deliver a satisfactory answer to the chief and the nobles who were looking forward to it.

After solving the problem of Luo Beiren, it is the turn of those Tubu people who are ignorant of life and death. Letting Luo Beiren does not mean letting go of Tubu people who are accomplices. Although Tubu people, the accomplice, actually did not help anything, their performance in the Third Northwest War made Wu Feng very unhappy. To be honest, Wu Feng did not expect Tubu people to dare to do this at the beginning. He really didn't understand how Tubu people's leader was so stupid. He hurriedly bet without analyzing the situation. Since he dared to gamble, he would be willing to accept the loss of the gambling motto. I believe Tubu people also understand that if they lose, they need to pay the bet.

The pleadings of the envoys sent by the Tubu people did not play any role. Later, Wufeng, Su Qin, Wang Liao and others even refused to meet their envoys again. The reporters and editors of the Northwest Star and the North Luzon Express were also brilliant at their instructions, and they listed the benefits that the Tubu people have gained from the Northwest's economic development in various aspects in recent years. Ke Yun, the leading reporter of the Northwest Star, used the "What is the sincere support?"

There are strong questions about the antonyms, from the increase in the tariff income of Tubu people by nearly ten times to the free support for Tubu people's cultural, educational and health infrastructure in the northwest, from the construction of road traffic to the financial and material free aid provided by the Northwest to win over Tubu people to deal with Luo Bei people in the past few years, the degree of detail made Wufeng unable to help but want the Security Bureau to ask where this guy got such detailed information from what means.

The Northern Luzon Express explains how much substantial things the Tubu people have obtained from the economic development of the Northwest from the perspective of the trend of increasing frequency and even integration between the two sides' civil exchanges and ordinary people. While the relationship between the two sides' civil exchanges is becoming more and more frequent and closer, those Tubu people who only know how to seize private interests ignore the interests of the ethnic group and are brazenly colluding with Luo Beiren, the long-term enemy of the Tubu people, when the Northwest needs support the most, intending to destroy all hard-won results and make the Northwest and the Tubu people incompatible enemies. These activities are outrageous.

The power of public opinion is infinite. The people of the Northwest who were awakened by public opinion were all filled with righteous indignation. They wrote petitions to demand that the Northwest severely punish these despicable and shameful traitors. For a moment, everyone's attention and focus were attracted by those "filthy and dirty traitors", and no one mentioned the punishment for the initiator of the war. Even Ling Tianfang, chief staff member of the Northwest Military Affairs Joint Conference, made an exception and accepted an interview with the Northwest Star, saying that the Northwest can accept enemies.
