837 Chapter 837: Meeting
The battleships at anchor are battleships built by the Economic Union in the middle of World War III. This class is called the Veneto-class battleship.
The Veneto-class battleship has a full-load displacement of 45,000 tons. It adopts a long forecastle, bulbous bow, and cruiser stern configuration with good seaworthiness. It is equipped with three triple-mounted 420mm main guns. mm secondary guns and twelve 90mm single-barreled anti-aircraft guns.
The protective armor is a box-shaped armored cabin with an extended structure and the 'Presey' anti-torpedo system. The armor defense and underwater defense systems are completely independent. The design is avant-garde and meets the characteristics and needs of the Economic Union Navy.
Four Veneto-class battleships were built in the first batch, and three more were produced in the late World War III. Until the end of the three world wars, the Veneto-class battleships were in service for more than 40 years before being retired.
Now there is only this antique ship left in the Connaught Economic Alliance. The real reason why it was brought here was because of the magic wave environment of Sino Continent, which made Blue Star's missiles and radar even more unusable on Blue Star.
The advanced missile is quite a long-range rocket in Sino Continent, and as the distance gets longer, the accuracy becomes less guaranteed, so it is not as good as the artillery.
In addition to bringing one battleship, the Economic Union also has two battleships of other types. In addition to other types of warships, the Economic Union already has more than 20 warships of various types. It is not that they are unwilling to bring more to Sino Continent. but powerless.
Such a huge warship consumes a lot of energy when passing through the portal of another world. When the Veneto-class battleship teleported over, it consumed a full 30 million kilowatt-hours of electricity, which directly caused a power outage in several nearby cities. Hours, the loss exceeded rebuilding a Veneto-class battleship.
However, it is impossible for the Economic Union to build a Veneto-class battleship on the island without more than ten years of construction. After all, they are not like Yitzhak, who can mobilize a dozen magisters and hundreds of magicians to assist in the construction.
A light frigate sent the representatives of the Economic Union ashore. This time, the Gangza Nation and the Economic Union directly dispatched all the strong men at the bottom of the box, accompanied by thirty-two mentor-level powerhouses and three foreign-race great mentor-level powerhouses. .
Putting such a lineup on Blue Star was enough to cause a major earthquake, but when they sent out the lineup from the Maxim Empire, they immediately put away their arrogant attitude.
There are nearly a hundred mentor-level powerhouses, lined up in two neat squares, and six great mentor-level people stand quietly behind Horns. This lineup is only one of the four major powers in the Sino Continent.
In the eyes of the Blue Star nations, the Melox Empire should also be the top power in Sino Continent, otherwise they would not allow the Holy Bretta Empire to cooperate properly.
The foreign race has been operating in Blue Star for more than 500 years, but there are only more than 30 great mentor-level powerhouses, and many of them survived before. Now the Maxim Empire can easily produce six big masters in one place. Mentor-level powerhouses, it is roughly estimated that there are at least 20 great mentor-level powerhouses in the Maxim Empire.
After all, Nuoda's empire needs many great mentor-level powerhouses to sit in command, especially the central plains front and the imperial capital, absolutely must have great mentor-level powerhouses.
Just like Merlot City, no matter what time it is, there must be a master-level powerhouse sitting in the territory of Merlot City. As for other places, it depends on the situation.
The speed of light teleportation array has spread all over the province. In the event of an accident, we can immediately send a master-level expert to reinforce it.
"Horns Yamato, Minister of Finance of the Lower Maxim Empire."
Horns took the initiative to perform a noble etiquette.
The representative of the Economic Union is an old-fashioned diplomatic ambassador. He has long dabbled in noble etiquette, but it is slightly different from that of Sino Continent, but the meaning it represents is the same. Horns is very satisfied with this.
"Birx Trishinya, Ambassador of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Economic Union."
"Are we talking here?" The representative of the Economic Union, Birx, looked around in confusion and asked.
"That's right!" Horns nodded, waved his hand, and a huge sound-proof barrier unfolded instantly, making Burks realize that the finance minister in front of him was also very powerful.
Birx cursed inwardly that there were no rules, but on the surface he sat down with a smile.
"I don't know what your country wants to talk to us about?"
Horns said bluntly: "Your country occupies our territory and islands, shouldn't you give an explanation!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere of the scene was suffocated instantly.
However, Burks is also a battle-tested person, so he can naturally hear what Horns said.
"I don't know what this means in your country? Could it be that you are not ready to go to war?" Burks said not to be outdone.
Horns smiled slightly and said: "If you want to fight, you can fight. The empire has mobilized 200,000 troops, and there are strong men here. If your power is stronger, we will send twice as many strong men. Don't doubt our strength." Strength, we are stronger than you expected."
Birx was so choked that he couldn't speak. He couldn't use the nuclear bomb as an example.
"Your Excellency underestimates my economic alliance. We are indeed not as powerful as your country, but there are countless weapons that can kill great mentor-level powerhouses. Have you seen that battleship? The main gun is 420mm, which can Easily kill a master-level powerhouse." Burks said confidently.
"Really? Shells generally have an initial velocity of 600-900 m/s. This speed can be easily avoided by a master-level powerhouse, not to mention that magicians have teleportation magic, which can easily teleport several kilometers away." ’” Horns said disdainfully.
The two sides debated for a long time about the hot weapons and the fighting power of the strong, and finally each made a concession.
"What does your country want?" Birx asked helplessly.
"To carry out bilateral trade, we will lease Pickering Island to your country for 20 years. The price is tentatively set at 100 million marks per year. The mark is our currency." Horns said with a smile.
Birx had been prepared for a long time, and he took out a list of goods and handed them to Horns, which were the prices of the most common goods, so as to estimate the exchange rate of Mark.
Horns understood Birx's plan just by looking at it, and brought over the list. Because of the difference in text between the two sides, most of the above were pictures.
As for why they can communicate normally, Horns is not too surprised. The lingua franca of Sino Continent is not only used by people in Sino Continent, it is also used by those worlds that were once enslaved and conquered. The traditional languages of many worlds have even been extinct. , can only use the common language of Sino Continent.
To exterminate a world culturally, in this regard, the capital of magic can be called the number one in the mainland.
Horns filled in the goods on the list with continental prices, and handed them back to Burks, and the first meeting between the two parties ended.
