Blackstone Code

People have a natural fear of darkness. As long as they enter the darkness, it is difficult not to think of some negative emotions.

The relaxed mood can start to turn a little tense, and that happens to everyone.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the president was sitting in the study with no lights on. It was a little cold. I don't know whether it was because of the temperature or because of the phone call just now.

The person on the other end of the phone told him without hesitation that the person on the other side was Pengeo's diplomat.

The purpose of his call was to remind the president that this impeachment was not a trivial matter, because behind the Independence Party were the federalists, and the federalists wanted to replace the Democratic Party with the Independence Party that leaned toward the federalists.

Naturally, they will also find someone to replace him as president.

After hearing these words, the president's scalp felt slightly numb. Lemar's political ecological environment has always been very simple and clean...

The main reason is that there are few people, and there are no practical benefits after taking power.

In addition to having an additional title of president or ruling party, the president and the ruling party have to help the entire country accelerate economic construction, which is a tiring job.

Without interests, there would be no conspiracy, and there would be no one who would hold back his bad intentions and want to be in power and then serve the people.

A really bad person cannot sit in this position.

So Lemar’s political environment was clean until this moment!

It turned out that the president had not thought about this, but now the Pengeo people, who are as good at internal fighting as they are at external fighting, reminded him, and he suddenly woke up.

In the past, Lemar, whoever was in charge of the ruling party and the president had to shoulder a lot of responsibilities.

The responsibilities are many, the benefits are few, and the power is just that.

But things are different now. The Federals and Pengeo people have entered the scene, and the interests have begun to exude an intoxicating fragrance.

Once the Autonomous Party becomes the ruling party, they will fully support the federalists and bring Lemar into the war. No matter what happens to the people of Lemar, at least they, the rulers, will receive huge benefits.

It may be about money. The people of the Federation are not short of money.

Maybe it's political, and they can jump to a bigger stage.

It could also be...

As long as there are interests, there will be people fighting for them, and there will be people who are full of bad ideas!

The president who was sitting on the chair felt a little cold. He wrapped himself in his clothes and lit a cigarette.

Until this phone rang, he had never taken the initiative to imagine human nature as so ugly, until this moment!

What made people feel even more frightened was the phone call from diplomat Peng Jiao.

After the other party introduced himself, he took the initiative to talk about helping the president fight against the "invasion" of the federal people.

He also said frankly that the Penteo people did not intend to build a military base in Lemar, nor did they intend to persuade Lemar to join their side and face the war.

Their purpose is to prevent the Federals from succeeding. As long as the Federals do not succeed, then everything will be fine!

In order to show his sincerity, he also gave the president another message

"We have detected some information through some special methods. It is possible that Paradise Island is not a resort, but a fortification!"

Until now, the president's head is buzzing. Why suddenly... It seems that Lemar has fallen to the federals?

After hanging up the phone, he immediately looked at the map and called the person on duty in the office building, asking him to check some information provided by Lynch.

According to the data, all the islands designated as resorts are in the southeast of the Lemar Islands.

And this direction is the direction of the Pengjiao Empire!

At this moment, the president felt that his brain was really not enough. In the competition between the great powers, he discovered what he lacked and what the Republic of Lemar lacked.

He was smoking, his body was shaking slightly, and he was afraid of everything!

The next morning, he was sitting quietly in the office. At about 10:50, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

A gentleman who looked... very "fastidious" came in.

The reason why there is no need to be particular about it is because he is really very particular about it.

His hair was smeared with a lot of hair wax and combed meticulously, and the traces left by each tooth mark of the comb seemed to have been measured with a ruler.

The width, angle, are exactly the same.

His body decoration and clothing, including his beard and eyebrows, are completely symmetrical, and you can't find any asymmetry.

In some things, this gentleman has an almost crazy pursuit!

"Hello, Mr. President, we spoke on the phone last night."

After the visitor came in, he stood by the door and did not come in immediately.

Mr. President stood up and invited him to sit on the edge of the sofa.

The person in front of me is Pengeo's new diplomat.

He was given greater power by Emperor Pengeo!

After the president took a closer look at the other person, he shook hands with him.

"Honestly, I never thought this day would come!"

He meant that he was in his office, talking to the Pengeo people about some things related to the federal people.

He also realized that without the help of the Pengeo people at this time, he would probably always be at a disadvantage, and it might really be possible for the Federals to succeed.

But before cooperating with the Pengeo people, the president still had some doubts.

For example...

"If you are not pursuing your interests in Lemar, then why are you helping me?"

The president's expression was very serious, as if he had experienced a lot overnight and had become mature.

The word "interest" began to appear in his conversation. Seeing that the other party was about to answer, he spoke first to stop the other party.

"Don't rush to answer me. Through my reflection on this period of time, I realized that Lemar may be just like a chip in a casino in front of you."

"You all want more because it's good for you, so give me a real, convincing answer to the question of whether we can work together."

Pengeo's diplomat always maintains a very gentlemanly smile. He is very handsome and very graceful.

Diplomacy is different from other jobs. You have to let others see you for the first time, at least not to have a bad feeling about you.

If a person is ugly, scary, or can arouse people's negative emotions of resistance, many people may not even give him a chance to speak.

Therefore, in this era, diplomats are often very handsome and graceful. Only in this way, no matter how firm their own ideas are, diplomats will be given a chance to sit down and chat.

"Mr. President, for us, as long as Lemar does not fall to the Bayler Federation, it is the greatest interest and benefit."

"From here to the southeast is the coastline of Pengeo, although it is indeed some distance away."

"If the federals launch an attack on our homeland from here, they will have some reserve, whether it is transportation, support, or anything else."

"But if they launch an attack from Cydoras, their warships will have to travel a longer distance to reach our coastline, and they won't have much power or leeway!"

"This is equivalent to launching a suicidal attack. If they cannot get supplies during the war, they will completely perish in our outer seas!"

"So for us, as long as Lemar does not become a military base and offensive outpost for the federal people, they will not rashly launch an attack on our homeland."

"I wonder if you are satisfied with my answer?"

The President probably understood. To put it simply, if the Bayler Federation gathered troops from the port of Cydoras to attack Penteo's mainland, the fuel and other materials they carried would not be enough to retreat when they were unable to defeat them.

Those warships will end up parked on the sea due to loss of fuel, and there will not even be a chance to re-deliver the fuel because they are too far away.

But if we attack from Lemar, the distance is shorter, and we can still turn back if we can't defeat it. We only need some warships to greet us. This will give us strategic depth.

If the Federals can't defeat them once, they can defeat them a second, third, or fourth time!

until the end of the war.

But if they could only attack from Cydoras, they would have to consider the consequences so that the Pengeans could ensure the safety of their homeland.

war.

Very far away.

But at this moment, the president felt that the war was around him.

Seeing the president deep in thought, Pengio's diplomat continued to increase his efforts, "If both of us can cooperate, we can bring more orders to Lemar, which are enough for you to stabilize the current situation."

"Secondly, in terms of international public opinion, we were the first to launch public opinion attacks on the Bayler Federation's interference in other countries' internal affairs."

There was a trace of arrogant contempt on his face, "These people in the Bayler Federation are very hypocritical. They are like thieves, but they never admit their own thoughts!"

"They will vehemently deny it because they want to take the moral high ground and it gives you a solution to the situation."

"You can take this opportunity to ask the government of the Republic of Lemar to buy out Lynch's initial investment and let him go back to the Federation!"

This plan is actually very rough, but it is also very convincing, because the person who gave this plan is Pengeo's diplomat.

A big country, a powerful country, no matter what it does, it is very impressive and has convincing power!

The president was a little shaken at this moment, "Are you sure you won't interfere with our choice?"

Knowing that the matter was basically settled, the diplomat Pengio smiled even more charmingly, "Of course, I swear on my grandmother!"

If the president knew that the diplomat's grandmother had been dead for who knows how many years, he might not believe him so easily.

But at this time, he had no choice.

Impeachment and the looming shadow of the federation put too much pressure on him!

He clenched his fists and his body became a little tense, but finally relaxed.

"So what do we do first?"

he asks.
