C3262 Extortion

The sound of the zither came from inside the Versailles, and Fang Guan, who had completed the mission in the Netherlands, came to the leader's side, playing the zither and playing the flute, allowed Xiao Letian to relax greatly.

Bismark played a few games of Chinese Go with Xiao Letian. Iron Blood Prime Minister had a high IQ, in a few days, he learnt the rules of Go, and slowly started to like this kind of Eastern Game.

He lit an incense burner, listened to a zither song, and silently strangled the black and white falling pieces … Bismark and Xiao Letian's dragon intertwined with each other, and the chess game changed unpredictably in their hands!

With a "pa da" sound, Xiao Letian dropped to the ground and laughed, "The iron net has already been formed, I'm afraid the prey will never be able to escape!"

Bismark spread out his hands: "This trap could be said to have exhausted all of our efforts, I never thought it could be completed, I never thought it would be possible …"

The zither music suddenly stopped, and Fang Guan stood up with a smile. "This game has really been recorded in the annals of history. When the later generations saw this piece of history, they still didn't know how to put on an act! "

Xiao Letian raised his head and looked out the window, "They're here!"

"You're here? "So fast …" Bai Si also turned his head to look.

"He doesn't dare not come. If he was a few days late, his wife would have lost everything …" Fang Guan began to prepare the martial arts tea leaves, and outside the window, a group of French cavalry s were protecting Thiers as he entered the main entrance of the Versailles.

Xiao Letian raised his head and looked at the beautiful palace. "After the net is closed, I'm afraid that we won't be able to stay here anymore.

Bismark shook his head, "This kind of palace is not a place to linger, even though it is beautiful it is a prison of desire! If you want to live like this, you'll need a lot of money! "

"Is that why you refused the Marquis and asked for the Count?" The question Xiao Letian asked was also a question that surprised many people in Europe.

After William I ascended the throne, he wanted to bestow rewards to the crowd. Amongst them, Bismark and the others wanted to give a Marquis to them, but Bismark refused it at all, he only wanted a Count.

No one understood, but Bismark did not explain either. Only then did Xiao Letian give a reply, "My dear friend, the Marquis needs to keep up appearances, he spends too much money …"

"The Count is a lot easier to deal with, and there won't be much tedious or meaningless social interaction … "After this war, it's time for me to enjoy myself …"

It was needless to say that he and Xiao Letian were very clear on many things, this was because Bismark was afraid that his achievements would shake the world. Although killing meritorious ministers was not a common practice in Europe, powerful subjects were also very taboo.

"Ai …" "It seems that you are determined not to follow the route of the Iron Blood Empire from now on. You're a smart man!"

"Haha, my good friend, this time, as long as we can get this compensation, my Germany will be able to maintain a hundred years of stable national destiny. Why fight again? "

"I'm not fighting anymore. I really can't fight in Germany anymore. I have to stabilize the national destiny for over a hundred years!"

Just as they were talking, Bismark's secretary knocked on the door and walked in.

"It's here, it's finally here …" Let's go welcome them. After all, we are the people who are going to lose a lot of blood soon. We should still give them more face! "

The main gate of the Versailles opened wide as Bismark and Xiao Letian personally welcomed Thiers's convoy. Before the carriage even stopped in front of the main entrance, the two prime ministers had already welcomed them from the left and right.

When Thiers got off the carriage, he felt his old face becoming red. He forcefully walked down, took off his hat and politely nodded to the people around him.

"Dear Prime Minister, Head of State... We meet again! "

"Welcome, Mr. President... What would you like for lunch today? How about Erguotou? "

"Oh …" No, no, no... That was so terrible that my throat was burning... But the hotpot last time was pretty good! "

"No problem, today I will treat you to Sichuan Hot Pot …"

The meaningless opening remark eased Thiers's awkwardness. The three of them came to the study room and accepted Fang Guan's offer of tea.

But how could Thiers have the appetite to taste tea today?

'I've come this time... I'm going to admit that I've lost... The bet between the Führer and I, I have lost! "

"Here, I humbly request that the two of you … Please capture all three hundred thousand of France's captives … Give it back to us! We are willing to pay a ransom! "

After saying that, Thiers immediately stood up, and bowed deeply towards Bismark and, "Please forgive my arrogance and conceit earlier!"

Xiao Letian and Yue Shan looked at each other, "Mn... So, does His Excellency accept our terms? "

"Mister …" Thiers suddenly raised his head as tears welled up in his eyes, "Gentlemen, can you please reduce the number …" France has squeezed out the last coin, this country really doesn't have any money! "

"Can you lower it by 40%..." No, no, no... "30% is fine too …"

"Hahaha …" Hearing such laughable words, Bismark stood up, "Your Excellency President, do you think that diplomatic negotiations are a market? Our time is precious, and we don't have time to waste! "

"The price we agreed upon must not be any less than a coin!"

Bismark glared at Thiers fiercely, "Give me the two provinces, Arthas and Rolin! To cede France to the Chinese all the colonies in Asia! "

"You have no choice but to give it to us. Arthas and Rolin are already in our hands. The French army that Annan is guarding is too weak to withstand a single blow. If not, please ask the Führer to lead the troops to take it for yourself!"

"Prime Minister!" Thiers cried as miserably as a rooster about to be beheaded. "Are you trying to form an eternal enmity with the France? If the two provinces are ceded to me, I will be the sinner of the law! "

"Humph!" This is all meaningless. Please do not forget, Lord President, that Arthas and Rolin, the number of people who speak German is far greater than the number of people who speak French! "

"Their main race is the German, not you French! We have ruled that land for a long time, and now we are taking back the territory we deserve! "

"This is an unchangeable fact! You don't agree? "Then send troops to retrieve it …"

Bismark's words were like steel beans smashing on the ground, causing sparks to fly everywhere!

Thiers almost spat out blood. This kind of humiliation was indescribable!

"Your Excellency President, I still have a hundred thousand troops from the Southern Sea that I can move, but the army that you left behind in Annan is only a little more than ten thousand …"

"If you don't agree, I will get it myself!"

"Hehehe …" At that time, I will have ten thousand more captives in my hands! When we get back, the ransom will continue to rise! "

With a bang, Thiers was like an invisible bullet in his heart, and he collapsed onto the sofa!
