Bang!

As the sun rises and prefabricated building components are pounded into holes by workers wearing exoskeletons, the dawn in Latveria is far more lively than in most cities around the world.

After solving the problem of the Eastern Entente, Lille, like his country, began a new round of work.

First, no doubt, greetings from our European allies——

[Speaker Schulz: Good morning, King. Here, on behalf of the European Union, I would like to congratulate you on your victory. 】

[Speaker Schultz: If possible, I would like to discuss with you some situations that occurred during the war.]

In the holographic projector, Schultz's condition looked a little tighter than before——

In other words, it's more formal.

It's not that he lacked respect and respect for Lille before, but that the speaker was obviously more relaxed every time he met with Lille, and his words expressed more concerns to various degrees.

Things are different now. Now Latvia, the most backward country in the world - a country that can hardly even be called a modern country - has changed its face.

Although the population is only over 500,000 and the territory is only 100,000 square kilometers, they captured the floating fortress from the Eastern Entente and captured a large number of war mechas, and maybe there were even aircraft in them——

If the general rebels or backward countries seized the aircraft, Schultz would only shake his head and comment: Do these primitive people know how to use the aircraft if they have it? Don't get killed by a plane engine.

Latvia is different. The AK47 has been upgraded, and the civilian supplies assisted by the European Union have turned into high-end prosthetics, exoskeletons and combat equipment. In just a short time, Lille has been able to develop a world-class team. Special Forces!

This is why Schulz became official: Latvia is no longer some poor country liberated from medieval backwardness.

The conflict between the Eastern Entente and Latvia is mainly between several small countries, including Sokovia, which has been captured. These countries receive military assistance from other larger countries. Latvia What was received was humanitarian aid.

If the Eastern Entente wins this war, or the Sokovian Three Kingdoms are slightly defeated, and it takes time to advance, this will be a good thing for the Eastern Entente and their sponsors.

The problem is that the three countries of Sokovia were not slightly defeated, but were completely disarmed.

In the entire Eastern Europe region, it is difficult to find a country that is more oppressive than Latvia, coupled with Atlas represented by Lille and the technology in his hands.

Just because this country has a sparse population does not mean that they are a soft persimmon that is still being kneaded by others.

Schulz's appeal was simple: they needed the military technology in Lear's hands, and if possible, they also needed the Sky Fortress.

[Liel: I can tell you how these pilots are trained, and I can even export equipment to you. 】

[Lille: But I suggest you take a look at their training standards first. 】

[Schultz: What do you mean? 】

[Lille: This kind of training will kill people, even if it is just the first stage of virtual training. 】

Schultz was stunned, not quite understanding how virtual training could kill people.

[Lille: Virtual training will 100% simulate the stimulation of the nervous system by the scene. If your nervous system declares your death during training, you will die. 】

[Schulz: Can't it be organized through technical means? Like stopping stimulation at the last minute? 】

[Lille: Then there is no point in training. Even if you train in a way that weakens your feelings, the unqualified pilots who are trained will die in subsequent actual combat. 】

[Lear: Ordinary people cannot withstand the high-intensity pulling force of three-dimensional mobile equipment, so they need enhanced prosthetics and exoskeletons. 】

[Lear: In order to get the most sensitive feedback during high-speed combat, they need better neural implants deep into the brain. 】

[Lille: If you can't even pass the virtual training, you will die in such a battle sooner or later. 】

[Lille: The most powerful weapon requires the strongest will control. 】

Schultz's mind flashed through the files that Atlas Group had uploaded to the public network, that is, the report on "cyberpsychosis". He touched his chin and began to sigh in his heart:

They couldn't risk a bunch of soldiers going crazy during training.

Schulz took a deep look at Lear:

[Schulz: How does Latvia deal with this problem? 】

[Lille: Latvilla did not deal with this problem, we have bigger problems to solve. 】

[Schultz: Okay. Is it possible to lower the intensity so that ordinary soldiers can train? Also, are there weakened versions of the firearms and other equipment you use? 】

[Lille: Mr. Speaker, there are indeed some weakened versions of military supplies available for sale, but I suggest you learn more about your military supplies procurement. 】

Not all equipment is so rare. For example, a weakened version of the three-dimensional mobile equipment is nothing more than a grapple and a recovery rope.

Lear can sell them, but he doesn't think these things will substantially improve the current European army.

[Shultz: Well, that’s a very sincere suggestion. Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty. 】

[Schultz: There’s one more thing you might want to join in]

Lear shook his head:

[Lille: Impossible, we will follow normal trade channels. 】

Schultz shrugged lightly. He had expected this result: Latveria did not ask for asylum at its weakest and most critical moment. Now asking them whether they want to join?

It makes no sense.

As for the population support deal proposed by some members of the parliament, he also secretly ignored this proposal and did not speak again.

It was really strange. Why did he feel that the European Union was climbing up to this small country?

Cooperation with the European Union was very simple. Schultz would continue to allocate a large amount of civilian materials from Europe to support Latveria's construction: food, raw materials, a large number of semi-finished products and not too complicated finished products, etc.

The difference from the previous one was that this time Latveria would start to export products to the European Union.

The first batch of exported technologies included virtual training products suitable for ordinary military use, a small number of high-end neural implants, and a series of prosthetic medical standards and knowledge that Atlas would not be able to export to Europe in time.

At the same time, Latveria would experimentally provide Europe with a part of the network repair business-including infrastructure services.

Finally, when the draft of the cooperation project was negotiated, Schultz was surprised:

It looks like they are exporting low-tech products in Europe in exchange for high-end products from a more backward country?

This idea just came to Schultz's mind, and he immediately thought of other things:

This first batch of exports is not much, and most of them are services and software, because Latvia's industrial capacity is obviously still very backward.

If they become stronger,

the significance of their European Union to Latvia may not be so important.

Suddenly, the idea that he had just discarded came back to his mind again: demographic factors are an important reason restricting Latvia's development.

What else is restricting Latvia's development? Or in other words, how can they strangle Latvia's neck at the right time?

While thinking about these questions, Schultz concluded the conversation:

[Schultz: So, although this is a little different from what I imagined at the beginning, I think this is a successful meeting. ]

[Schultz: Congratulations to you and your country again, Your Majesty. ]

[Schultz: May God bless you. ]

[Lille: We too, thank you for your help. ]

Squeak——

Communication closed.

Johnny appeared in front of the window:

[Johnny: I have never talked to such a powerful person face to face, but I think this guy must not be convinced. ]

[Johnny: A group of primitive people shared the secrets of prosthetic technology with them in the village. You are now a big treasure. ]

[Johnny: I think he will go back to discuss with his colleagues how to move the shovel. ]

[Johnny: Why did you agree to give them so many good things? ]

"The emotional kindness of individual humans will be infinitely diluted in collective activities. In this level of communication, no kindness is without reason."

Lille rode a steel-bone warhorse in the fields. Facing Schultz's change of attitude, he did not have too many feelings, but just communicated normally according to Johnny's words.

"But anyway, the aid from the European Union has been a great help. Just looking at the results, they are indeed a good ally."

[Johnny: If someone else said this to me, I would call him an idiot, but you make sense. Thinking of taking all the benefits and not leaving any to others may be a jerk's behavior. ]

"It's really not very smart."

After the voice fell, the warhorse under his crotch stopped moving, and Lille looked at the floating fortress parked in the mountains.

This scarred fortress does not need to be suspended in the sky all the time, but the communication array on it is very useful. Through a small number of communication base station amplification, the signal can cover the other three occupied countries.

In addition to land and potential labor force, Hydra's military base is also very valuable.
