Two hours later, the four-nation teleconference took place as scheduled.
Vilika made some polite remarks at first, then went straight to the point:
“Respected President Lahis of Aisa and President Dureka of Via, we all understand that the Suxiong Alliance is on the verge of collapse.”
“The new madman in charge will not let go of your countries’ resources. He will never let you leave the Suxiong Alliance easily. He will only drain you of all your power!”
Hearing this, Lahis’ hands trembled, he sighed heavily, and said helplessly:
“Yes, we said we would leave the alliance a month ago.”
“But unexpectedly, so many things happened this month. That madman won’t let us go.”
Dureka took over, “You guys have it easy, you declared independence early, unlike us, we are on edge all the time, we don’t even have a chance.”
Vilika immediately interrupted, “We have pressure too, Konev has publicly declared that Gru and Liva’s independence is invalid. This is a blatant provocation!”
“But we don’t have to worry too much, the righteous forces of the West will definitely help us.”
Dureka frowned and hesitated, “What if they don’t help? It’s still an internal matter of the Suxiong Alliance.”
Nataus laughed triumphantly, and said without hesitation, “It’s impossible for them not to help. The Suxiong Alliance is a thorn in the West’s side. The more independent countries there are, the weaker the Suxiong Alliance becomes.”
“This is exactly what the West wants to see. We can proactively seek help from them, giving them a chance to intervene.”
“They are the light of justice, they will never allow an evil dictator like Konev to run wild.”
Vilika added, “Then, they can form a joint force and fight the Suxiong Alliance as mercenaries.”
“If that’s not enough, we can sign an agreement and pay them with some of our mineral resources to exploit.”
Nataus had a sly smile on his face.
Lahis thought for a moment, looking troubled, “That way, our resources will be taken over.”
“However, it’s better to become independent than to keep dragging this out.”
“If we continue like this, the presidents of these member states will no longer have any power.”
“I’m willing to gamble with you all.” Lahis’ firm tone made Vilika nod slightly.
Dureka followed, “The four countries unite, plus the help of the Western Eagle Sauce and the North Alliance, they definitely won’t dare to attack us.”
“Even if they dare to, how can those unknown troops from the Mao Xiong Alliance possibly fight the West?”
“If he dares to attack, it will be the day of his downfall.”
Nataus’ mouth curled into a cruel smile.
These words immediately gained the approval of several presidents.
Everyone nodded, “That’s right! That crazy Konev actually wants to take away our power, he will definitely pay the price for it!”
“We must never surrender the economic resources of our countries!”
Another president clenched his fist and said excitedly, “The Suxiong Alliance is almost collapsing now, they are weak! We can’t be drained by them anymore!”
“Our four countries should form an alliance, quickly contact the West for help,”
“Western civilization is so powerful, they won’t ignore us!”
“Let’s immediately discuss the plan and try to have a dialogue with Eagle Sauce’s president!” Vilika said excitedly, his eyes shining.
In the following meeting, everyone was in high spirits and spoke freely.
Every word was filled with anticipation for the future, as if the days of wealth and luxury were just around the corner.
…
Meanwhile, President Old Bu Shi of Eagle Sauce was in his office, frowning.
Stacks of documents about the Suxiong Alliance were piled up in front of him.
In just half a month, the name Konev had taken over his mind.
He was thinking about Konev while eating, working, going to the bathroom, and even in his dreams.
It was already driving him crazy.
At this moment, his secretary came in and interrupted his thoughts, “President, President Vilika of Gru is requesting a phone call with you.”
Old Bu Shi narrowed his eyes and had a plan in mind.
He had long guessed that Konev would definitely make a move against the independent member states.
After all, these countries were unable to resist the pressure from the Suxiong Alliance and could only turn to him for help.
“Connect the call,” he ordered.
After ten seconds, Vilika’s respectful voice came from the other end of the line.
“Respected President Old Bu Shi of Eagle Sauce, hello!”
Vilika tried to get closer, ready to make further polite remarks, but unexpectedly, Old Bu Shi interrupted him directly, “Get to the point, I’m busy.”
Lahis’ heart tightened, but he still flattered, “It’s like this, you were interested in our oil fields and mineral resources in Gru and Aisa before, and we’ve prepared a cooperation plan for you.”
Then, he explained in detail his plan to request Eagle Sauce’s military intervention, and also specifically emphasized that the four countries hoped to lease their mineral resources, oil fields, and some rare resources for a long time.
When Old Bu Shi heard the word “oil,” his eyes immediately lit up.
But he still suppressed his excitement and his voice became gentler, “I feel sorry for your situation and the persecution you’ve suffered from the Suxiong Alliance and the North Alliance.”
“They want to continue to persecute you, which goes against humanitarianism.”
“However, I believe that a fifty-year exploitation period is not enough to show the friendship between us. Can we increase the exploitation period of the mineral resources and oil fields to 100 years?”
Vilika’s heart sank when he heard this.
Fifty years was already a long time, he actually wanted to double it! Wasn’t this draining all the resources of their future generations?
After a brief silence, Vilika said helplessly and solemnly, “As long as Eagle Sauce is willing to send troops to help us maintain world peace, we are willing to increase the exploitation period of the leased oil fields and mineral resources to 100 years.”
His attitude was very clear, as long as the North Alliance and Eagle Sauce intervened, they were willing to pay any price.
At this moment, Old Bu Shi was pleased with what he heard, secretly rejoicing in his heart.
These four resource-rich countries could provide a steady stream of resources in the future, and even become military bases to blockade the Suxiong Alliance in the future, it couldn’t be better.
More importantly, this way the war would be ignited on the border of Suxiong, not at Eagle Sauce’s doorstep.
Old Bu Shi had long wanted to find an opportunity to retaliate against the Suxiong Alliance, and now the opportunity was finally here.
But he didn’t rush, instead he said calmly, “I have understood your situation and needs, Eagle Sauce will consider this matter as soon as possible, and we will respond to you after making a plan.”
