In the evening Tan Yan accompanied Wu Qiao to the soldiers' cemetery.

The cemetery is very large, with tombstones lined up neatly, there is a kind of quiet and awe-inspiring that is different from the outside world.

Wu Qiao walked past row after row. He carefully looked at the name on the tombstone with eyes full of admiration. Whether he knew it or not, it took a long time to walk each row.

"There are still many soldiers who have not had time to be buried." Wu Qiao told Tan Yan, "mainly they died in battle in recent months."

"Yes." Tan Yan continued, "Speaking of which, more people have died recently than in the past." Tan Yan was a little sad at this point-his soldiers fell at dawn when the faint sunlight could already be seen.

"I'll go back and let Ji Yao deal with it as soon as possible, and let them all rest in peace sooner." Wu Qiao still said softly and authentically.

"Ok."

"Also, Ji Yao and I are thinking about setting up a monument on the square to commemorate these heroes. We plan to start looking for designers and craftsmen as soon as the negotiations are over, and strive to make the monument a popular place."

"Yes." Tan Yan should still be with Wu Qiao.

"We are still thinking about setting up two festivals. One celebrates freedom and the other pays tribute to the dead. The end of the Hundred Years' War is a big event after all." Wu Qiao said again.

"I agree too."

"..." Wu Qiao did not continue, because Sheng Chongguang's tombstone had arrived.

On the back of the tombstone is the epitaph that Wu Qiao personally mentioned for him: "Recalling the past and cherishing the present, the feast is hard to come. It is as heavy as the hills, and the light will last forever." The first two sentences sorrow the past, and the last two praise friends. The first word is "Yi Sheng Zhongguang".

Sheng Zhongguang has few friends, and only Wu Qiao will come to the tomb. Wu Qiao looked down and found that the flowers had indeed been brought by himself last time. He bent down, took the old one in his hand, and put the new flowers on it.

"Hey, Chongguang," Wu Qiao took out his handkerchief and wiped his tomb. "Peace is here. The Republic has surrendered."

After a pause, he said again: "You should be very happy too? You are also a soldier. Also, in the last battle, Layla was seriously injured and may not be better... I can't move my hands or feet. I really feel sorry for her. Do you remember Layla? You must remember it. You once told me that Layla is a girl, braver than you."

Tan Yan watched silently beside him.

"In fact, I have rarely dreamed of you, but Su Yiqing always came to me." Wu Qiao smiled, "Chongguang, I said...You can also come to my dreams. I am not as timid and afraid of you. Ghostly."

After talking to the end, Wu Qiao sighed: "Really...I miss you so much."

"..." Tan Yan looked at Wu Qiao, stretched out his arm and hugged his shoulder tightly.

Wu Qiao also went to see Su Yiqing, and then, not surprisingly, saw Ji Yao.

Wu Qiao knew that Ji Yao often came here, because the flowers on Su Yiqing's tomb were new every time.

"Are you here too?" Ji Yao was smiling again.

Ji Yao likes to laugh very much, and he looks very beautiful, but Wu Qiao is a little skeptical now that all Ji Yao's smiles in the past few years have been fake smiles. In the past, Ji Yao seldom laughed, but every time he was unusually bright. Now... is always a little different from then.

Wu Qiao also looked at Su Yiqing's tombstone. Su Yiqing likes beautiful things, but the tombstone is the same as others. Su Yiqing must be upset when she knows. The cemetery requires the tombstones to be unified. There is really no way for this kind of thing.

"I told you what Ji Yao should be talking about." Wu Qiao patted the tombstone and placed the flowers on it, "Then...I won't bother you two for now." Interrupting when a couple is chatting is a kind of nonsense. The act of winking.

"Yes," Ji Yao said, "I have said everything that should be said. When you came, I was saying that Wu Qiao and the people he likes are fine. Su Yiqing must be very happy to hear the news."

"..." Wu Qiao really didn't know what to pick up.

Ji Yao raised his eyes and said sincerely: "I am also very happy for you. You two are lucky people born in this era."

"..." Wu Qiao gave Ji Yao a hug.

After a few more rows, Tan Yan's speed obviously slowed down. Sometimes he would stop and stare at a certain tombstone for a long time.

The longest time was ten minutes.

"Is it your friend?" Wu Qiao asked.

"Yeah." Tan Yan said, "have you heard of it? I am the only one who survived in our team."

"Correct."

"If you didn't have them at the time, you wouldn't have anyone to propose next week."

"..."

"So, you and I are really lucky people."

"..."

...

——The next day, the three-party negotiations between the alliance, the neutral country, and the republic officially began. The venue of the negotiations was in the neutral country. Each country sent the highest leader and several other clever representatives.

Wu Qiao brought Ji Yao and three others whom he believed very much.

The scope of affairs to be discussed in the negotiation can be described as very wide, from the process of the trial, to the ownership of the goods, to the indemnity of the war, to the supervision after the war... There will be at least one hundred agreements in the end.

The discussion on the other parts is fairly smooth, and the most troublesome link is negotiating the compensation.

What made Wu Qiao a headache was that the acting president of the Republic was always crying. It seems that his tears were not accidental when he read the surrender book that day. He cried every day and said how miserable the Republic is now-this war has cost the Republic all its money, a fifth of its land, and a quarter of its population.

Wu Qiao stared hard at him, and couldn't tell whether he was really crying or pretending to cry. How much Wu Qiao hopes that Su Yiqing is still alive, because probably only the actor can analyze how the other actor's acting is.

Moreover, that guy not only cried, but also clutched his chest and said that he was about to have a heart attack and was about to be forced to death at the negotiating table, bewildering all the representatives of the alliance and neutral countries.

Facts have proved that this thing can play a certain role no matter what time, place, or occasion. The difference is only the size of the effect.

No matter how tough Wu Qiao was, the acting president of the Republic cried and said that he couldn't take it out, he was going to die, and he insisted that it would be impossible to sign even if the Republic was blasted to the ground.

There was no progress in the past few days, and Wu Qiao was really worried.

People have already surrendered, so they can't take the initiative to fight in the past. That would be irresponsible, and he would become an aggressor instead.

Wu Qiao had no choice but to take a gamble.

He lowered his head to brew his emotions, and when he raised his head again, he also rolled out a few tears.

"...!!!" Jing Yan looked at Wu Qiao in shock.

Wu Qiao also described the tragedy of the Allied Powers and proposed a brand new payment method to the Republic: If the treasury is really empty, the Alliance will go to see what equipment it needs for post-war reconstruction, and remove it if the Republic has it. Take it away, but promise not to dismantle the equipment used to guarantee the basic survival of the people of the Republic; in addition, more importantly, the Republic needs to provide a certain amount of labor to help the League in post-war construction, and the League will pay low wages for this. He said that the League does not want the people of the Republic to affect their normal lives because of compensation.

The acting president of the Republic happily agreed to this concession. Tan Yan is more restrained. The Republic does not have as many alliances as the planets destroyed in the war, and there is no need to invest too much manpower to rebuild. At the same time, the defeat led to a complete depression of major industries. He can foresee that a large number of idle populations in the Republic will become a factor of social instability in the next few decades. However, the Alliance had countless galaxies razed to the ground during the Empire, and the country lacked the manpower for young adults, so the situation was just the opposite of that of the Republic. It is really a wonderful idea to use "manpower" to offset the "indemnity". In this way, the alliance can supplement manpower, and the people of the Republic will no longer be troubled by losing their jobs and having no income-low-paid jobs are also income.

The only dissatisfaction with this arrangement is the neutral country.

A neutral country is not a battlefield, it has not been bombed into ruins, and it does not want any manpower.

What Jing Yan wanted was money—not only indirect war reparations from the Republic, but also debts that the Alliance could only repay to neutral countries after receiving a large amount of reparations.

However...the acting president of the Republic and Wu Qiao hit it off instantly, and both wept and sold miserably. He said explicitly and secretly that the least harmed neutral country should understand them, so that he, whose ability is already very mediocre, could not think of a way for a while. response.

Wu Qiao repeatedly assured him that the money would be repaid. The Republic has no money, and it helps the alliance to rebuild, and the alliance can restore the economy as soon as possible, work hard to repay the money, and even raise interest to pay more.

Jing Yan dragged on for three days and couldn't help it, so he signed the agreement bitterly.

This is really the most bizarre negotiation between countries in history.

"...Huh." Wu Qiao felt that it was worth crying when he got the manpower and delayed the repayment.

The tearful Dafa taught by Su Yiqing before seemed to work well.

Wu Qiao decided that if he had another idea in bed but Tan Yan refused, he would cry.

...

——Because the agreement was signed for too long, when Wu Qiao returned to the League, it was already the day before the award ceremony.

Rarely, Wu Qiao did not hug Tan Yan, but carefully prepared the speech and rehearsal of the award ceremony. It was not until four o'clock in the morning that he returned to Tan Yan's home from the auditorium.

After returning home, he was ready to propose marriage again, and Ji Yao determined all kinds of tricks he would use, and even Ji Yao could not sleep with him.

The award ceremony plus the marriage proposal ceremony must be foolproof.

It’s okay for him, but tomorrow will definitely be the most important day in his life for Tan Yan-he will become the life marshal of the country he loves because of his military exploits, and at the same time, he will also become his beloved. Life partner of the person.

You absolutely can't mess it up.
