Chapter 2044 - 2044: 2044

Liu Zhizhong pulled off this stunt, completely stealing the limelight from the Great East Pot's autumn military parade that was supposed to attract global attention.

Uncle Gu's face was slapped hard, leaving it swollen.

To make matters worse, the Great East Pot's civilians are quite praising Valle's maneuver this time. After all, it's about getting money.

Some people have even started preparing to cheat and acknowledge relationships with the Expeditionary Army. Professional scam groups are emerging accordingly.

Frankly speaking, people of the Great East Pot love engaging in quick, short-term profit ventures, making a big score and then running.

However, the Wale Republic has long been aware of these tricks. The anti-aggression compensation money is easy to take but hard to cheat. Real things can endure the test; fake ones are easily exposed.

While Liu Zhizhong was busy with these matters, he had some encounters with Ye Bingyu, since they were supposed to sleep together.

Ye Bingyu once asked Liu Zhizhong, "Zhizhong, the way you're doing this, you're rubbing Great East Pot's face in the dirt, making the folks up there look pretty displeased! Won't this affect the relations between the two countries?"

Liu Zhizhong was of course steady, doing what he loves, and said, "The relationship between the two countries wasn't good, to begin with. Though there's been ice-breaking, resulting in economic exchanges and benefits, they're minimal. Despite some people being unhappy, they have to endure, don't they? Is the Wale Republic doing something wrong?"

"It's right, but at this time, there's that parade over there, and here you're offering something so tangible, it makes them feel terrible! What if Uncle Gu doesn't allow Zhao Yan to come to Valle, how will you deal with it?"

"No way! Is his perspective that narrow? I don't believe it..."

"Don't think he's got a big picture, what if it turns small, it's unbearable for you..."

"Pfft, am I afraid? Can the Great East Pot compare with Valle now?"

"Well..."

"..."

Anyway, Liu Zhizhong didn't care about the Great East Pot's reaction anymore. Receiving global support was enough.

As for Zhao Yan, even if she's blocked from coming to Valle because of this, he has his ways.

Even if it means snatching, he has to snatch his wife back, right? Hahaha...

Meanwhile, in the Great East Pot, Comrade Porlaxi Shijin attended this grand parade, having cornered Liu Zhizhong at the airport, feeling quite thrilled.

Angered, Liu Zhizhong returned to Valle, but he still felt happy.

Yet, after Liu Zhizhong's bill was introduced, Porlaxi Shijin the Dog was stunned, suddenly feeling that face-slapping sensation.

Therefore, when Uncle Gu and Pu the Dog had a private meeting, things didn't align with the news release.

The news release only picks what others can say and the essential audience can hear, giving you a little spin, but how much solid information can you really expect?

The real scenario is that Uncle Gu and Pu the Dog engaged in a nearly two-hour long discussion in a secret conference room.

What they talked about, others don't know, very few people can clearly know.

In any case, Pu the Dog wants money, men, guns, and cannons, intending to make a massive counteroffensive and push on in Kekistan's battlefield. Given that autumn is nearing its end, Kekistan's winter is approaching, with snow and ice everywhere making fights tough.

Pu the Dog wishes to seize more land before winter arrives and achieve brilliant battle results.

Take the land!

Indeed!

With the development of civilization reaching today's trend, some people still obsess over land, truly turning into humanity's historical waste, like cancerous tumors!

Of course, without continuing the fight, it seems Pu the Dog has no other option either.

If he doesn't continue fighting, his position remains unstable.

Without some respectable victories, his position is still insecure, and his interests group will suffer huge losses.

If defeated, he's doomed, and a large group of followers will die too!

Pu the Dog obviously understands the stakes, so he must come and attend this ceremonious event, must obtain something from the Great East Pot.

Moreover, Pu the Dog even signed an interesting agreement with Uncle Gu. Essentially it's about the two Great Countries mutually protecting each other's properties within their territory, preserving them as much as possible, disallowing any third party to acquire and manage.

However, during this visit, Pu the Dog didn't get much from the Great East Pot, mainly completing issues regarding logistics and drone components procurement.

The rest of the lethal weapons, Uncle Gu knows the weight, can't give, firmly can't give, for it would create international leverage, slipping into passivity.

Meanwhile, Uncle Gu, to appease Pu the Dog, also gifted him a traditional courtyard right in Tiandu.

This courtyard is Pu the Dog's private property, everything within it belongs to him. He expressed his intention to remodel it as per his ideas, the Great East Pot won't interfere. Even the construction team would come from his side. Uncle Gu had no objections regarding this.

Anyhow, Pu the Dog seemed satisfied and secretly planned to ship over a batch of gold bars and precious calligraphy and paintings once the courtyard remodeling was completed, accompanied by many rare cultural relics and treasures.

His beloved woman also needed to come and live here.

Pu the Dog left his life's retreat in the Great East Pot, showcasing quite a shrewd mind.

He knows that once war fails, he has nowhere to go.

The International Court is after him! Should he lose a war, he's to stand trial, the best outcome would be spending a life in prison, leaving a dog's life.

And in the Great East Pot, as long as Pu the Dog has his own courtyard, even if it's exile, it would be quite easy. Also, he could be under Great East Pot's protection.

Just for this courtyard, Pu the Dog also gave Uncle Gu some favors; destroy some historical archives.

History, real history, is always so unbearable to look back upon and witness. Hence, Pu the Dog probably allowed the Great East Pot to hold leverage over him, mostly due to these reasons!

Only that, when the two discussed the Wale Republic's new bill, Pu the Dog truly cursed loudly, stating that should Uncle Gu sever ties with Wale Republic and confiscate all of Wale's investments, it would also be a handsome income.

To this, Uncle Gu of course disagreed, saying Wale has its advantages, beneficial for my long-term development, can't cut ties. The hard-earned relationship can't be destroyed like this.

Pu the Dog said, it's certainly beneficial for you guys, as many of your Expeditionary Army members with disappeared relatives are eagerly hoping that once verified, you'll certainly be able to secure a lot of money, hehe... But Chi Zhongshui's approach before such a major event as your parade isn't very respectful of your position here, and is deliberately so, huh? Need any lesson not? If you agree to give him some severe lessons, I might consider erasing more archives and providing you with some better aircraft engine technology.
