In front of Li Qiang, General Kars did not dare to be arrogant, so he explained the matter in detail, and Li Qiang listened very seriously. General Kars was not sure whether Li Qiang knew or not about this matter.
"I probably heard about this situation." After General Kars finished speaking, Li Qiang said faintly, "However, these things have nothing to do with us. If people don't offend us, we won't offend them. What we want is enough benefits. Only when they offend our interests, we will make a move on them. At other times, we don't have time to pay attention to these clowns."
Clowns? General Kars took a deep breath. These armed forces that were very troublesome to him and threatened his status were actually clowns in Li Qiang's mouth!
However, thinking of their thunderous means when they destroyed General Howton, it was not surprising that General Howton had no power to fight back. Not to mention the fact that they were well-trained, just the weapons and equipment they had were not something they could compare to.
When General Kars came in, he also saw the rows of armored vehicles, tanks, and missile carriers parked in the field. This series of things was something that they did not dare to think about.
The price of this thing was enough for most of their military expenditure, and they might not be able to buy it. So with this alone, there was no power that could compete with them in this land.
General Kars couldn't help but sigh. If I can have such a powerful army, then I don't have to worry about anything. Who dares to provoke me? However, he also understood that this was just an idea. In fact, it was impossible.
"Captain Li, in fact, I don't want to hide it from you. My current position has been threatened. The northern alliance is eyeing me covetously. As long as they unite a few more armed forces, my side … Ai!" In front of Li Qiang, General Kars simply told the truth. Otherwise, if he said those hypocritical things, it would not be good if Li Qiang was disgusted. Therefore, General Kars did not feel ashamed and bluntly said the crisis he was now encountering.
"En, indeed, with the example of the north, the south, and the east all follow the example of the alliance. Then you are indeed in danger!" Li Qiang nodded and said.
General Kars did not expect Li Qiang to see it so thoroughly, so he sighed, "Captain Li, to be honest, this time, can you help me?"
"How can we help you?" Li Qiang shrugged. "General Kars, you also know that Brother Yang is a very realistic person. He values benefits. If there are enough benefits, he will make a move."
"I know that, but … in my current state, as an interim president who is about to be ousted, what can I promise you?" General Kars sighed. "To put it bluntly, with your current strength, you don't need my promise and permission to occupy any mine you want. Just drive an armored vehicle and occupy it. No one dares to say no …"
"Hehe, it seems that General Kars also understands this." Li Qiang smiled and said, "I once told Brother Yang that with our current strength, occupying the entire Country X is not a problem …"
General Kars suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He didn't expect Li Qiang to have such an idea! It could be said that if Li Qiang really wanted to, then whether it was the Northern Alliance, the Southern Alliance, or himself, they would not be a match for Li Qiang and the others.
"What did Mr. Yang say …" General Kars asked quickly.
"Mr. Yang said that this feeling is very good, but he is not interested in civil affairs. He is only interested in making money." Li Qiang patted General Kars' shoulder and smiled. "So, General Kars, you can rest assured that Mr. Yang will not compete with you for the position of president."
"Hehe … I still have self-knowledge. Even if Mr. Yang does not compete with me for this position, according to the current situation, I can't be the president for a long time …" General Kars said with a bitter smile, "So, I asked Captain Li to extend a helping hand."
"The key is what can you give us?" Li Qiang asked. "The problem now is that we can take action, but we should get the reward we deserve. Even if it is cooperation, it is also mutually beneficial, right?"
"This …" General Kars really couldn't think of what he could give to Li Qiang for a while. Li Qiang helped him to conquer the world, and he became the president. This was somewhat unreasonable, right?
"Let's do this, General Kars. You go back and think about it. I will also tell Mr. Yang about today's conversation and see his attitude. If possible, can we carry out further discussions?" Li Qiang's meaning of this sentence also meant that he was asking the guest to leave.
General Kars had to stand up and said, "Well, then I will trouble Captain Li to report this matter to Mr. Yang as soon as possible."
"Okay, General Kars, you can rest assured. I will convey your meaning to Brother Yang." Li Qiang had already received Yang Ming's instructions, but now he wanted to delay General Kars so that the negotiations between the two would be smoother.
After General Kars left, Li Qiang told Yang Ming about the negotiation process. Yang Ming let him do as he saw fit. Obviously, he was very relieved to entrust Li Qiang with full authority.
"Captain Li, General Kars is at the end of his rope this time. You are not afraid that he will not agree to Brother Yang's request." The speaker was Lu Xinyang, Yang Ming's military adviser.
"Yes, this time, I am afraid that General Kars is really embarrassed. Otherwise, he can't talk to us so humbly. The previous glory is long gone." Li Qiang sighed and said.
"However, if General Kars really cooperates with us, then he will always be in a weak and passive situation. We control the military power, and he only controls the civil affairs. In this way, whether he can continue to be the president or not is completely up to Brother Yang." Lu Xinyang smiled. "This is also a disguised control of Country X's political power."
"Indeed, General Kars is no different from Brother Yang's men. He is even lower than us. "Li Qiang also nodded." However, it is much better than driving him out of office. "
After General Kars returned to his presidential palace, he was also at a loss. Indeed, Li Qiang's words were very realistic but very reasonable. If he wanted Li Qiang to send troops, then what could he give them?
General Kars also came from a war background. He knew that once these armored vehicles, tanks, and even bombers were put into operation, what a huge military expenditure it would be!
General Kars couldn't afford this money. He couldn't even use these gold mines and diamond mines to pay off the debt. Therefore, if he wanted Li Qiang to send troops, then there was only one possibility, which was cooperation.
How could he cooperate? After Li Qiang helped him conquer the world, would he let Yang Ming be the president? Would he be the vice president? Not to mention whether Yang Ming was willing or not, the title of vice president was not very pleasant to hear. If a president became the vice president, his power would be reduced by more than half, and he would also be laughed at by others!
It's really a headache. General Kars frowned and looked at the secretary on the side. "Do you have any better ideas?"
"General Kars, the situation is like this now. If I have a better way, can I not say it?" The secretary also frowned. "The only way now is to see the reply from Mr. Yang …"
"That's the only way …" General Kars nodded.
As soon as General Kars finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of the office. General Kars put away his sad face and said, "Please come in!"
"Reporting to General Kars, it's not good. According to our intelligence network monitoring, several armed forces in the south have also begun to move. There are signs of an alliance …" The person who came in was an intelligence officer and one of General Kars' confidants.
"What!" After General Kars heard it, he slammed his fist on the table.
These armed forces had long been seen that they were restless. When he just came to power, they were still peaceful. Now that the north had formed an alliance, they had also begun to form an alliance!
Now it was really urgent. General Kars took a deep breath. He couldn't wait anymore. He had to call Li Qiang immediately to ask about the progress of the matter. Otherwise, when the alliance of the south and the north arrived, it would be too late!
Thinking of this, General Kars quickly picked up the phone and dialed Li Qiang's number.
"Captain Li, it's General Kars' call." Lu Xinyang glanced at the caller ID on the phone.
"Oh? Hehe, then pick it up. "Li Qiang reached out and took the phone, then pressed the answer button.
"Hello, General Kars, why did you call me again when you just left?" Li Qiang pretended to be very puzzled and asked. In fact, he understood in his heart that General Kars couldn't wait.
"Captain Li, the armed forces in the south have also begun to move. They intend to form an alliance. Now it is really urgent. What does Mr. Yang mean? Can you give me a definite answer …?" General Kars' voice sounded very anxious, and he lost his original demeanor.
"I just talked to Mr. Yang, but Mr. Yang did not reply to me. He said that he would consider it …" Li Qiang said, "General Kars, don't worry. This matter is also a big deal. You can't rush it."
General Kars thought, You are not in a hurry. Whoever is in power has no effect on you, but am I in a hurry? I am about to be ousted. How can I not be in a hurry?
"Captain Li, do you see if you can tell this latest situation to Mr. Yang again? See what his opinion is, and then tell me about it." General Kars said anxiously.
"So, I just made a call. If I call again now, it doesn't seem to be very good. It seems to be urging. I don't know if Brother Yang has considered it …" Li Qiang said with some difficulty.
"Captain Li, this time I am begging you. This is a military situation. It really can't be delayed!" General Kars sighed and said, "Sorry to trouble you …"
"Well, then I will try again. General Kars, you are really in a hurry! How should I say … Ai! "Li Qiang sighed and said helplessly.
"Then thank you, Captain Li. I am waiting for good news here!" General Kars saw that Li Qiang agreed and said very happily.
"En, so, call me again after twenty minutes." Li Qiang looked at the time and said.
"Okay, okay, no problem." General Kars said quickly.
Li Qiang hung up the phone and looked at Lu Xinyang. He shrugged with some amusement. "This General Kars, why is he so anxious?"
"Can he not be anxious? If he is not in a hurry, he will be ousted as a general. " Lu Xinyang said with a smile, "It is also hard for him. If we didn't want him to accept our request at once, we would not drag him like this."
"Now it seems that I am afraid that no matter what kind of request we make, as long as we can let him continue to be the president, he will agree," said Li Qiang.
General Kars now had a feeling that every day was like a year. Looking at the clock passing by, General Kars was anxious.
"What did Captain Li say?" The secretary also asked anxiously. As a member of General Kars' army, the survival of General Kars' government had a lot to do with him.
"He said, help me urge Mr. Yang now … Ai, if it wasn't urgent, I wouldn't do this. After all, this is a bit impolite." General Kars said with a red face.
"I hope Mr. Yang can give us a positive answer." General Kars' secretary looked forward to it.
Finally, the time reached twenty minutes. When General Kars watched the minute hand of the clock stop at the last square, he immediately grabbed the phone and dialed Li Qiang's number.
Looking at such a punctual call, Li Qiang was really dumbfounded. Even if this General Kars is anxious, he is not anxious to this extent, right?
In fact, this was the case where the onlooker saw the game clearly. General Kars was in the game. Although the alliance between the south and the north was unlikely to launch an attack on General Kars, General Kars felt that things were at stake, and he would be affected soon.
Li Qiang was outside the game, and he did not have the sense of urgency of General Kars. In his opinion, these armed forces alliances were not worth mentioning. There was no threat to Li Qiang at all, so Li Qiang had this feeling of not caring at all.
"General Kars, you are really punctual. I just ended the call with Brother Yang, and your call came in." Li Qiang laughed.
How could General Kars still have the mood to tease Li Qiang at the moment? He was not in the mood to respond to Li Qiang's laughter. He just said, "Captain Li, is there any news from Mr. Yang?"
"Yes, Brother Yang has put forward a general plan after consideration. I will relay it to you. You see if it is feasible," said Li Qiang.
"Okay, okay!" General Kars heard that Yang Ming had a plan, and he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. The big stone that had been pressed down in his heart for the past few days had finally been removed. At least he had hope, so he quickly asked excitedly, "What did Mr. Yang say?"
"This is the case. Brother Yang said that if you want us to send troops, it is possible. However, according to the current situation, we will not get much benefit by sending troops. So Brother Yang's opinion is that in the future, only our army exists in Country X," said Li Qiang.
"En?" General Kars was slightly stunned and understood Li Qiang's meaning. Li Qiang was asking for military power from him, so General Kars quickly asked, "What about me?"
"Of course, Mr. Yang is not interested in civil affairs. Brother Yang said that if we cooperate between the two sides, you will still be the president, but we will take back all the military power. However, we will not interfere with your civil affairs." Li Qiang said, "But you have to give us a part of the annual fiscal revenue."
How could General Kars not understand Li Qiang's meaning? If it was really implemented according to Yang Ming's method, then Yang Ming would become the retired emperor of Country X. Who did not understand that no matter how great the power of the president was, it was useless if there was no military power in his hands.
Yang Ming controlled the military power. If he wanted to replace you, it would be a piece of cake. However, this request was not unacceptable to General Kars. After all, if all the armed forces in the country were dealt with by Yang Ming, he could be the president with peace of mind. Although there was still Yang Ming, the retired emperor, to suppress him, at least he was still very impressive. He still had the right to speak in most political matters. As long as he listened to Yang Ming's arrangement on major matters, it was fine.
This was a bit like the relationship between the emperor and the prime minister in the past. Thinking of this, General Kars was calm. In this matter, although there were pros and cons, the pros outweighed the cons.
On the one hand, because of the intervention of Yang Ming, he could continue to be the president. On the other hand, although he handed over the military power, Yang Ming would never allow other armed forces to exist in Country X. He would remove all these armed forces.
In this way, Country X would no longer be shrouded in war. He could also have a comfortable governing environment, and he could develop the construction of Country X with great fanfare.
Thinking of this, General Kars felt that this was a good thing. Otherwise, in this war-torn country, he was a temporary president, and he would not be treated as a president at all.
"I have no problem here!" General Kars said firmly, "Captain Li, when do you think we can have a detailed discussion?! I am looking forward to this cooperation very much! "
"Well, I will ask Brother Yang here, and then I will give you an answer!" said Li Qiang.
"Okay, then I will trouble you, Captain Li. I will wait here for the good news." General Kars breathed a sigh of relief. He could finally sleep peacefully.
