Chapter 47 Change of Plan

Hongyue first said: "Actually, I think our choices are nothing more than two, either agree to the Indians' request, or not. "

"Is it possible to persuade the Indians to agree to our previous proposal?" Eagle asked me.

"If possible I would have been convinced then. But to be honest, I can understand why Indians don't want Nepal's land."

"Why?" Da Guofan asked curiously.

Rose explained to me: "To put it simply, there is no benefit. Almost all of Nepal is mountainous. Firstly, urban construction is very difficult. Secondly, the number of monsters is terrifying. Thirdly, although mineral resources are rich, almost all of them are in high-level monster areas. The core part is very difficult to mine, so it is natural that the Indians are unwilling to take it.”

"Then can we consider using some other areas for replacement?" Eagle asked.

"Military God." I shouted, and the three-dimensional map in the center of the room immediately expanded to cover the entire India and surrounding areas. "This is the situation near India. First of all, it is absolutely impossible for us to use our own land to replace the Indians, and even if we agree, the Indians will not do it."

"Why?" This guy, who is also a big pot rice cook, asked aloud.

Bing Ling, who was sitting next to him, slapped him angrily. "You idiot, after we encircle the Great Leiyin Temple, if we cut some space in the rear for the Indians, wouldn't it mean that we both have an enclave in each other's country? This kind of discord with the main part of the country Who would want an enclave on the border?”

"I'm just asking, why are you so angry?"

"Okay, okay, Bingling, please stop hitting him. Big pot rice has always been like this, and it's not the first day you know it. Okay, let's continue looking at the map. Except that it's impossible to replace our native land with the Indians. , the only ones left around India are Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Pakistan, and the Kashmir region that India and Pakistan are fighting over. Nepal is difficult to develop, and Indians don’t want it. The Maldives is just a bunch of small islands, and they are occupied It’s too troublesome, even if the Indians want it, we can’t choose it ourselves. Pakistan and Kashmir are actually the same problem. If we want to choose Pakistan, we might as well grab Kashmir!”

"Then the only ones left are Sri Lanka and Bangladesh?" Eagle asked.

Su Mei suddenly said: "I remember that Bengal seems to be full of virgin forests, right? Would Indians want that kind of place?"

"That's not true either. Just because we don't like it doesn't mean Indians don't like it either," Bai Ling said.

"What about Sri Lanka?" Woma asked. "I went to Sri Lanka once when our guild was purchasing the crystal cores of high-grade marine monsters. It seemed pretty good there."

"We can't choose Sri Lanka just because it's pretty good." I said, "Sri Lanka is too rich in resources. It's like a super cornucopia. If we help the Indians occupy Sri Lanka, we might as well do it ourselves!"

"So isn't Bangladesh the only one left?" Hongyue asked, looking at the map.

"What resources does Bangladesh have?" Sumei asked.

The military god immediately put a bunch of various marks on the map, and then replied: "The main resource is wood. The entire territory of Bangladesh is covered by virgin forests, and there is more wood than soil, but the most important thing is This." A three-dimensional image of a tree suddenly appeared on the top of the map. "This is a magic core tree. There is a magic core in the center of the trunk that is about one-third of the diameter of the trunk. This magic core is an excellent conductor of magic energy. It is equivalent to copper in reality. It only needs a little processing. It can be used to lay magic transmission lines. This kind of material is basically used in the urban power pipelines of our guild, and it can be used on golems, battleships and ground defense weapons. It can be said that it has a wide range of uses. In addition, according to According to the latest research results of this guild, this substance may be able to produce a conceptual 'defense' system after some special processing."

"Thanks to the 'sexual' defense system?"

"Let me explain this." Woma took over the military god's words and said: "The scientific research unit of our guild has just proposed a research project. We all know that when current flows through a conductor, a magnetic field will be generated, and once the magnetic field is strong enough to One level can bind the objects inside it. Our researchers speculated whether some kind of force field will be generated when magic power flows in the magic energy conductor? The latest research results show that this speculation is completely true, and its application prospects are very Vast. We are currently experimenting with a kind of magic armor. If successful, it will be possible to add some additional defense to all personnel and combat units in our guild, and this defense will be able to deal with physical attacks and magic damage at the same time. valid."

"Damn, is our guild's technical strength so good?" Several guys who didn't care much about the guild's technical research were surprised when they heard Woma's introduction.

I patted the table and said: "Okay, the topic is far away. We are not discussing the issue of magic armor now. Judging from the data just now, Bangladesh still has a lot of resources, but there is an issue that cannot be ignored, that is, Bangladesh's What should we do with the monsters?”

The voice of the military god followed my words and introduced: "The currently explored area of ​​Bangladesh accounts for about 45% of the country's land area, and almost no one has entered the remaining areas. Within the known areas of Bangladesh , the number and level of various monsters far exceed the normal standards of other countries, and the interior of the forest shows the characteristics of unstable monster activity areas. Areas that were originally explored without advanced creatures may not be able to return in a few days. Once you enter, it becomes the lair of high-level Warcraft, so development is very difficult. Currently, according to the information we have, Bangladeshis have only one player city so far. The reason is that the monsters in Bangladesh attack the city so hard that It is impossible to build a player city at all. The only successful example was because the city was close to the sea and it required a lot of foreign aid to finally succeed."

"That means building a city in Bangladesh and grabbing land in Kashmir are actually the same?" Zhenhong asked.

"Basically, it's like this." After the military god finished speaking, he added: "But I suggest that if you have to choose between Kashmir and Bangladesh, it is better to choose Bangladesh."

"Why?" This suggestion from the God of War even seemed strange to me.

"This is a conclusion drawn from a comprehensive analysis." said the Army God: "In terms of the difficulty of the battle, the Kashmir region is an unrestricted area, so the intensity of the battle cannot be measured by the standards of ordinary areas. Due to the support of all the divine forces, , the combat effectiveness of those fighting in Kashmir will be improved compared to outside, so the actual fighting level in Kashmir is higher than that in general areas. Although Bangladesh is a complete country, behind Kashmir is Pakistan, which is larger than Bangladesh With the support of many countries, coupled with the combat level in Kashmir, the difficulty of fighting in Kashmir is much higher than that of Bangladesh. Secondly, in terms of external relations. The magic core produced in Bangladesh and the ice crystal produced in Kashmir are both important, but the magic core It is not monopolized by Bangladesh. There are many areas in our country that produce it, but the production areas are relatively scattered and the mining cost is high. In comparison, the ice crystal production in Kashmir accounts for one-third of the world's total production. In addition, our own ice crystal production is insufficient. , so the ice crystals in Kashmir are a semi-monopoly product that can control the price of ice crystals in the world. Pakistan has a relatively good relationship with our country. In addition, both India and Pakistan are mining in Kashmir, and the price cannot be increased due to competition, which has a lot of impact on us. Big benefit. If Kashmir is controlled by Indians, India will control one-third of the world's ice crystal production, which will have a great impact on our guild's future procurement plans. On the contrary, if Bangladesh is controlled by Indians, we The loss will not be too great, because Bangladesh's magic core cannot influence the market price, and even if the Indians control Bangladesh, they will not dare to raise prices rashly."

Rose nodded and said: "Can you now calculate which one is more cost-effective between helping the Indians occupy Kashmir or Bangladesh or directly forcibly building a city in India?"

“According to my calculations, the most cost-effective plan among the three is to use Bangladeshi land to exchange land with Indians, followed by forcibly building a city, and the worst option is to help Indians occupy Kashmir. However, Bangladesh’s land is more than The land we occupy from the Indians is much larger. Even if we carry out land exchange, there is no need to occupy the entire territory of Bangladesh. If the president wants to negotiate with the Indians, it is best to limit the area to a smaller size."

I nodded and said: "Do you have any other opinions? If everyone agrees to use Bangladeshi land for replacement, I will go to negotiate with the Indians now."

With everyone's unanimous approval, I finally adopted the Army God's suggestion. That night I rushed to India to negotiate with their main president. But it was different from when I came at noon. The presidents of various guilds in India were busy with other matters in the evening. I had to wait in their conference room for more than an hour before everyone was waiting.

"President Ziri, has you made a decision?" The guy who led the question had a look on his face that made me want to punch him in the face, but I held back in the end. After all, it’s important! Seeing me nodding, the other party immediately said more proudly: "Since you have agreed, let us discuss how to occupy Kashmir?"

"No." I shook my head. "I didn't promise to help you occupy Kashmir?"

"Then why are you coming back?" The guy's tone seemed to be giving me an ultimatum. It seemed that my initiative to negotiate made him feel a little carried away. They probably thought that my initiative to negotiate was a sign of submission, so they were so arrogant. It seems that I have to wake them up, otherwise there will be no conversation later!
