Joining the Non-War Pact will not bring much security guarantee to the Persian Empire. It is impossible to be a king by relying on a contract for national security.

Of course, it cannot be said that the "Apart from War Convention" is useless at all. Even southern Africa is bound by the "Apart from War Convention". If you actively provoke a war and violate the "Apart from War Convention", you will be unanimously punished by all signatories.

of.

 The beauty lies in "taking the initiative".

The "Convention on the Non-War" does not explicitly stipulate the nature of war, and the provisions on sanctions are also unclear, which leaves a back door for all signatories.

If you can't take the initiative to provoke, then does passively responding to the challenge count as a breach of contract? You can't hold a knife to your neck and still not resist.

If it is a war, if war is not declared, does it count as an outbreak of war?

 Port Elizabeth is not yet a formal territory of Southern Africa. If a war breaks out between Port Elizabeth and the Persian Empire, does it count as Southern Africa's participation?

 What’s more, there are agents.

So if Lisa Khan hoped that the Non-War Pact would bring security to the Persian Empire, Lisa Khan was wrong.

Even so, Rock did not want Lisa Khan to sign the Non-War Pact.

Like the Treaty of Versailles, the fundamental purpose of the Non-War Pact is to establish a system dominated by southern Africa and the United States. This system does not conflict with the system established by the Treaty of Versailles and the Washington Naval Treaty, but complements each other.

 After member states sign, disputes must be resolved peacefully, and the possibility of war is greatly reduced. If someone dares to breach the agreement, Southern Africa and the United States will take action.

The question then arises, what if southern Africa and the United States default?

  Sorry, as the initiator of the "Apart from War Convention", the right to interpret all provisions of the "Abandoned from War Convention" lies with Southern Africa and the United States. Therefore, it is Southern Africa and the United States that have the final say on whether to breach the agreement.

At the same time that Southern Africa initiated the Non-War Pact, Roque also had another purpose, which was to persuade countries to implement arms bans on the Asia Minor Peninsula and bring peace to the Asia Minor Peninsula as soon as possible.

 Counting from 1918, the world war has ended seven years ago.

 After the end of the world war, the participating countries were exhausted and ushered in a short period of peace.

The Asia Minor Peninsula is an exception. The Ottoman Empire was divided among various countries at the Paris Peace Conference. After the signing of the Treaty of Sèvres, a total of 40 countries were established on the territory that originally belonged to the Ottoman Empire. Constantinople was occupied by troops sent by the League of Nations.

, the Dardanelles and the Bosporus became demilitarized zones under the jurisdiction of the Strait Management Commission, and the Ottoman Empire became the country most seriously damaged in the world war.

There are two powerful forces in Asia Minor today, one is Kemal and the other is Said. There are many other unknown small forces. Compared with before the war, the Ottoman Empire lost 60% of its territory and 75% of its territory.

of the population, and nearly 99% of the wealth.

The Asia Minor peninsula, which had lost its outlet to the Black Sea, no longer had any appeal to Britain and France. Just after the World War, Britain and France tried to maintain order in their respective protectorates. Soon after, they gave up because the gains were outweighed, leaving the Ottomans in the Asia Minor peninsula.

Live and die on its own.

In the current situation, the biggest profits are made by various trading companies. Years of war have caused the Asia Minor Peninsula to lose almost all its production capacity, and arms are even more completely dependent on imports. Rock's purpose is to cut off the supply of arms to the Asia Minor Peninsula, without weapons and ammunition.

, if you want to fight again, you can only swing the machete.

What makes Rock a little embarrassed is that just after Rock made this suggestion to Austin and Coolidge, Austin and Coolidge looked at Rock a little strangely.

It’s a bit embarrassing. Most of the companies in the world that are most active in delivering weapons to the Asia Minor Peninsula are from Southern Africa. So much so that all forces in the Asia Minor Peninsula are using the weapons and ammunition provided by Southern Africa. Southern Africa takes this opportunity to sell the unsalable weapons after the World War.

All the ammunition has been emptied. It is said that the active troops in southern Africa have completed the change of equipment. Now I think of the arms ban. Co-authored by You Are the Good Guy and the Bad Guy.

Roque is not embarrassed. On the issue of the Asia Minor Peninsula, southern Africa plays exactly the same role as the United States in the early stages of the World War.

So Austin may have the right to despise Rock, but where does Coolidge have the right?

"The chaos in the Asia Minor Peninsula has seriously affected the peace and stability of the surrounding areas, and has also caused great trauma to the Ottomans. It is time to end all this, and we should maintain world peace -" Roque seemed to be possessed by God, without blinking an eye.

one time.

 Austen and Coolidge still despise.

 Look around the Asia Minor Peninsula. To the north is Russia, to the west is the Strait Demilitarized Zone, to the east is the Persian Empire, and to the south is Cyprus and Mesopotamia——

 Coincidentally, Cyprus and Mesopotamia are both spheres of influence in southern Africa.

Would Rock have been worried about Russia and the Persian Empire?

 Don't be ridiculous, Rock is worried about the impact that the Asia Minor Peninsula will have on Cyprus and Mesopotamia.

Of course, apart from these minutiae, Rock's proposal is still very valuable.

 “You’re so embarrassed——” Austin was rude to Rock, and couldn’t stand Rock’s behavior of pretending to be a saint.

And Coolidge, don't leave, you Americans are not clean either.

"What else? Let the Ottomans continue to fight? I don't care, anyway, the Asia Minor Peninsula is far away from southern Africa." Roque didn't care, can a person who wants face be trained into a big hooligan?

When it comes to colonialism, the Anglo-Saxons are the ancestors in this regard, so none of us should laugh at anyone else, and no one is any more noble than the other.

“Indeed, the Asia Minor Peninsula cannot be allowed to continue to be chaotic—” Coolidge had a positive attitude. The Asia Minor Peninsula was actually very far away from the United States. The fundamental reason why Coolidge was so positive was that he had a say in international affairs.

If you want to expand your influence, you must actively participate in international affairs, regardless of whether you have any interests or not.

 Look at the former European Gendarmerie, which now has almost no sense of existence just because it had no say in international affairs.

Austin didn’t speak, and his sullen look was probably not because he had no objections, but because he had some things that were inconvenient to say in front of Coolidge.

Sure enough, after the dinner, Austin did not leave Luoying Lake and stayed directly at Rock's manor.

I have to say that although the people in Japan are not very good, the cherry blossoms are still quite beautiful.

Rock's manor is basically surrounded by cherry blossoms. There is a stone-paved island trail along the peninsula. The street lights next to the trail emit warm and soft neon lights. These neon lights were also invented by Nikola Tesla. The wires are buried in

There are speedboats patrolling the waters underground and around the peninsula, so safety is guaranteed.

Rock and Austin were sitting on the balcony on the second floor drinking tea. It was not English black tea that had changed the taste, but standard southern African green tea. Although Austin didn't like the taste of green tea, Austin was willing to try it.

“It’s a bit astringent and doesn’t taste good, why add some milk?” Austin also suggested.

“Tea with milk can still be called tea? Bitterness is not the taste of green tea, but the taste of life. This is the connotation of tea culture——” Roque said casually. He was eating supper and was not full from the dinner just now.

 Austen thought that what Rock said was reasonable, and then silently savored the taste of life.

“What did you want to say just now?” Roque finished his supper, feeling quite unfinished.

 Forget it, eating too much at night is not good for digestion, so you need to be in moderation.

 “Let’s talk about Khuzestan—” Austin still refused to give up.

 “What suggestions do you have?” Rock didn’t want to talk about this issue, so he didn’t use “opinion”.

“We jointly set up an oil company to develop oil in Khuzestan.” Austin had no choice.

  It cannot be blamed for Austin's repeated entanglement. Although the supply of Adan Company is sufficient, it is better to control an important lifeline resource such as oil in his own hands.

 Britain also tried every means for oil. It teamed up with the Dutch to set up Royal Shell, and the Americans to set up Anglo American Petroleum. After going full circle, it still found that southern Africa was the most reliable, Anglo-Southern Petroleum? Royal Adam?

 It doesn’t matter, as long as there is Britain.

 “Who told you that there is oil in Khuzestan?” Rock refused to admit it at all.

 “Locke, it’s meaningless if you say that——” Austin was very dissatisfied. Don’t forget that Port Elizabeth was purchased from the UK. God knows how heartbroken the British are when they see the current Port Elizabeth.

However, Roark did not buy or sell by force, and you cannot blame others for what you and I wanted to do. The fault was that the territory of the British Empire was too big, tens of millions of square kilometers were lost, and it did not care about Port Elizabeth.

 What can I do if I care, can I still snatch it back from Rock?

 Don’t forget that Rock is the Marquis of Nyasaland in the British Empire. If the British government dares to rob it, whether it can be taken back is not yet known. The entire British aristocracy has something to say.

If you rob the Marquis of Nyasaland’s Port Elizabeth today, will you rob the Duke of Westminster’s Westminster tomorrow? On this issue, the British nobles are very united.

Compared with the Duke of Westminster, Rock is nothing. The city of Westminster is the fiefdom of the Duke of Westminster. Buckingham Palace is in Westminster. Strictly speaking, all the British kings are Westminster.

The Duke's tenant.

 Speaking of the Duke of Westminster, the Eton Manor where he lives covers an area of ​​4,400 hectares. If you have no idea about this area, you can compare it to the Forbidden City.

 The Forbidden City covers an area of ​​only 72 hectares.

 So don't look at Rock's frequent visits to Eagle Castle, Luo Ying Lake and so on. Compared with the real British aristocrats, Rock is still far behind.

“You tell me who told you that there is oil in Khuzestan, and I will agree to jointly establish an oil company.” Luo Ke cut the firewood, and before he could get the benefits, he had to pay some price first.

Austin is extremely confused. It’s hard to answer this question. Should he want face or money——
