Chapter: 3735
Leaf continued, "Military combat effectiveness, in my opinion, is determined by three aspects. First and foremost is the level of weapon equipment, followed by the management layer's formulation of strategic tactics, and lastly but most importantly, it's the individual fighting power. The individual fighting power of Wan Long Dian's soldiers, I'm sure you're all familiar with that. If they were to help you train your soldiers, I believe it won't be long before there will be a qualitative change in your soldiers' training level."
Saeed's face suddenly had an expression that was hard to conceal.
At this moment, Leaf said again, "In addition to this, for the sake of showing Wan Long Dian's sincerity and to give you more reassurance, I think you should select the location for Wan Long Dian's base between your capital city and the northern mountain region. This way, Wan Long Dian will be in a mid-point buffer zone, which is equivalent to an additional layer of protection for you."
As he said that, Saeed's expression relaxed significantly.
Due to the current level of development within the country still being very lagged behind, their war with the opposing party is basically still within the scope of close-range contact warfare. Due to a lack of precise long-range weapons, both sides would have to send troops to besiege each other's cities, so if Wan Long Dian's base were located between the two parties, it would indeed be able to play a very good buffer role.
Saeed finally opened his mouth and asked Leaf, "Mr. Leaf, how can we trust that Wan Long Dian will help us cooperate in defense? What if Wan Long Dian were to betray us and ally with the opposing party, wouldn't we be even more at risk?"
Leaf waved his hand seriously and said, "This kind of situation is impossible from now on, forever."
As he spoke, Leaf looked at Wan Ba Jun and said calmly, "Wan Ba Jun, please explain to Saeed why this kind of situation is impossible."
Wan Ba Jun nodded and said solemnly, "Wan Long Dian has already started internal transformation. From now on, our mercenary business will strictly follow international law and regulations, which means that in the future, we will only cooperate with legitimate governments from various countries and will not take any other orders."
Leaf looked at Saeed and asked with a smile, "Saeed, do you understand now? Wan Long Dian will be thoroughly whitewashed from now on. So, as long as he is in your country, he will definitely cooperate with you if it's with legitimate governments, but not with opposition parties. Such things are absolutely beneath Wan Long Dian."
As he spoke, Leaf added, "And I'm saying this sincerely - among these opposition parties, apart from Hamid's life being quite good, the rest of them are struggling to make ends meet. Wan Long Dian earns over 100 billion dollars a year. Do you think they can hire someone with that kind of power?"
Saeed had already half-believed Leaf by this point.
However, based on negotiation principles, he still wanted to hold out for more benefits before showing his satisfaction. So, he said to Leaf, "Leaf, I don't think these conditions are sufficient enough for us to give Wan Long Dian 100 square kilometers of land, let alone the fact that Wan Long Dian currently has 15,000 prisoners in our hands - this point, Wan Long Dian also needs to account for."
Leaf nodded and waved his hand, saying, "Saeed, you don't need to play psychological games here. I called everyone together to discuss this matter because I hope we can all open up and sincerely explore a solution that is beneficial to both parties, rather than trying to satisfy one side."
As he spoke, Leaf added, "Once we leave this room, I hope you, Wan Ba Jun, and Hamid will all be able to gain something. Hamid wants stability development, Wan Long Dian wants a rear base, while you want to reduce an enemy and increase an ally."
Saeed thought for a moment and asked, "Leaf, why not increase two allies instead?"
Leaf laughed and said, "That depends on how Hamid thinks."
Hamid chuckled at this point and said, "I think it's like letting the water flow separately - we don't interfere with each other or attack each other. And I still need to remain in the opposition camp, otherwise, if I directly change my nature, the team behind me won't be that easy to manage."
Saeed nodded and said, "That's a good point, old brother. You're essentially maintaining a facade of opposition while being neutral in reality."
"That's correct." Hamid laughed and said, "I'm not hiding it from you, Leaf Brother. After you nudged me slightly back then, I've been digging tunnels like I'm addicted to it - I don't want to fight at all!"
Leaf looked at Saeed and said with a smile, "So, isn't this good?"
Saeed paused for a moment, then asked again, "What about the prisoner matter?"
Leaf smiled and said, "This is simple. The Wanyue Hall will pay each of you $1 million in compensation. That's 15,000 people, which is $15.5 million altogether. With this amount, it's enough for you to expand your troop size and upgrade your equipment."
Even before the battle, some people thought that this matter might require over $100 million to settle. However, Leaf Brother had only offered them $15.5 million.
Saeed was clearly disappointed, knowing that Wanyue Hall has a lot of money and has always wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to strike a deal. The amount of $15.5 million is not small, but it's not too much either. JrNovels.com
