Volume 19, Chapter 31: An Unequal Treaty with Many Mysteries

The Japanese players in Fulcrum City were all frightened by the maritime crisis suddenly revealed by Masamoto Matsumoto. If it is a threat on land, Japanese players can tolerate it, but how to fight this threat on the sea? Japan now doesn’t even have many warships that can go to sea!

Just when the Japanese players were anxiously scurrying around like ants on a hot pot, Matsumoto Masaga suddenly continued: "You don't need to worry too much. Although I, Matsumoto Masaga, can't be said to be dedicated to the public good. , but I think I am as patriotic as anyone. At present, I have sent out the last battleship group raised by the Ghost Dragon Society. This fleet is now intercepting the fleet sent by the Frost Rose Alliance at sea. If nothing happens, , should be able to intercept at least more than 80% of the opponent's forces. If we are lucky, it is not impossible to completely intercept the threat at sea."

"Huh!" The people of Fulcrum City collectively exhaled. What Japanese players are most afraid of now is the navy of our guild. After all, the two sides are really far apart in this regard.

After waiting for a moment, Masamoto Matsumoto continued: "Although I can send troops to intercept the crisis at sea for the collective benefit of the Yamato nation, the battle on the ground still requires your efforts. But I believe that since I can It should be possible to intercept the Frost Rose Alliance's maritime power on your own, and it should be possible for you to rely on the help of the city wall to block the Frost Rose Alliance's ground attack."

After listening to Masamoto Matsumoto's words, the Japanese players who were originally quite frightened are now a lot calmer. After all, the threat at sea has been basically solved by Masamoto Matsumoto. If they can't even solve the problems on the ground, that would be too bad. Some.

These players were making up their minds to resolutely defend Fulcrum City, but Matsumoto Masaru unexpectedly said something unexpectedly. "However, just a few hours ago, I was suddenly given an ultimatum."

Hearing what Masamoto Matsumoto said about the ultimatum, the Japanese players were all stunned. An ultimatum? What ultimatum? Japanese players were baffled by Masamoto Matsumoto’s words. What ultimatum did the Chinese give Masamoto Matsumoto to attack Fulcrum City? Based on their information, it is impossible not to know that Mr. Matsumoto is not in Fulcrum City, right? Could it be that he was being warned not to participate in the defense of Fulcrum City? That seems unlikely, right?

The Japanese players were muttering there, but they didn't expect Masamoto Matsumoto to follow up and say: "This ultimatum comes from the temporary guild alliance joint meeting in Fulcrum City. The content is to ask me to abandon the city I have occupied and go to Fulcrum City to participate in the defense of Fulcrum City." war. Moreover, there is another content at the end of the ultimatum, that is, if I do not come, they will announce to all players in Japan that I, Matsumoto Masaga, am a Japanese thief and refuse to participate in the battle against the Chinese. And they will announce that I I am a traitor and a thief."

"Buzz..." Fulcrum City exploded instantly. This news is even more exciting than the previous news about the fleet sent by our guild. After all, our guild has a fleet problem. Masamoto Matsumoto said that he had sent a fleet to intercept it, but now this problem has not been solved. Moreover, the problem is that the initiators of this ultimatum are actually their leaders, and the content of the message should obviously be Issued in their name. You must know that the Fulcrum City Temporary Guild Alliance Joint Meeting is actually a temporary management organization established by the guilds of Japanese players in Fulcrum City, and the information sent in the name of this unit should be regarded as the thoughts of all players in Fulcrum City. Masamoto Matsumoto suddenly received such a message, and everyone knew that he must be in a bad mood now. This is no longer an ultimatum, this is a naked threat!

Probably deliberately leaving time for these Japanese players to think, Masamoto Matsumoto paused for a long time before continuing: "Maybe many of you don't know it yet. After being kicked out by your presidents, I actually did not stop fighting after Fulcrum City. Instead, I led my Oniryu Kai and some guilds that were willing to follow me to capture all Japanese cities north of the line from Nagoya to Fukui. Now even if you are defeated and Fulcrum City is occupied, So as long as my Ghost Dragon Club is here, Japan will still keep half of its territory. However, your president asked me to give up defending these cities and come to help you defend Fulcrum City. And if I don't come, they will Japan declared me a traitor and a thief."

After Matsumoto Masaru said this, he paused for a while, and then complained in an extremely sad and angry voice: "Is it difficult to calculate if half of Japan is exchanged for a city? Doesn't your president know these two things? Which one is more important? Even if Fulcrum City is the strategic center of gravity, even if Fulcrum City is of great significance, can't the Tokyo area and half of Japan combined not offset this importance? No, no. They are not stupid, they know everything . They understand that Fulcrum City does not have that great strategic value, and they also understand that the best way is not to ask me to give up half of Japan to support Fulcrum City, but they still decided to let me give up Fulcrum City to reinforce them, why?"

Hearing Matsumoto Masaru say why, the Japanese players looked up at the projection in the sky and waited for his answer. The presidents of the Japanese guilds jumped to their feet anxiously, but they could not block the shadow. elephant. The people sent by Masamoto Matsumoto did not use fixed projection equipment, but a one-time magic playback device. After starting the device, the device itself had self-destructed, and there was no way to terminate the playback of images and sounds by destroying the device.

Just as the presidents were anxiously turning around, and the Japanese players looked up at the projection expectantly for a few seconds, Masamoto Matsumoto's projection finally said: "They understand that half of Japan is definitely more important than Fulcrum City, but they still asked me to give up half of it. Japan came to reinforce Fulcrum City. This may seem strange, but it actually reveals the great wisdom of these presidents. The reason why their behavior is different from what everyone thinks is not because they do not understand what is good for the Japanese nation. , just because they are not fighting for Japan at all." At this point, Masamoto Matsumoto began to say word by word: "They are fighting for themselves. What they want is not the great rejuvenation of the Japanese nation, but themselves. The great renaissance of Japan. What’s the big deal with half of Japan? So what if I control the whole of Japan? That’s not their territory. Their territory is only the Fulcrum City they just snatched from me. So, it doesn’t matter if I lose half of Japan. , but throwing away Fulcrum City will not work. Because Japan is Japan for all Japanese, and Fulcrum City is their private Fulcrum City. This is their great wisdom, this is their code of conduct, and this is the reason behind the ultimatum. .”

When Masamoto Matsumoto told this shocking news, the entire Fulcrum City did not fall into chaos, but became completely quiet. It was as quiet as if there was no one in the city. You can even hear the sound of tens of millions of people gasping together.

In fact, many of Matsumoto Masa's theories are incorrect. The presidents of Japanese guilds are indeed more selfish, but they are not as exaggerated as Matsumoto Masaga said. Moreover, the Ghost Dragon Society does not actually control half of Japan. They only control the area north of the line from Nagoya to Fukui on Honshu Island. Although Hokkaido is separated by them, it is not actually controlled. . Also, even if Matsumoto Masahiro and the others control half of Japan, they still cannot compare with Fulcrum City.

Economically speaking, the output of half of Japan must be many times more than that of Fulcrum City. There is no doubt about this. However, from a military perspective, things are not as simple as imagined. Although Fulcrum City is too small to be compared with the territory of half of Japan, its special geographical location, its remaining residual resources, and its status in the hearts of Chinese and Japanese players all determine the strategic value of Fulcrum City. It is much larger than half of Japan's territory.

However, although what Masamoto Matsumoto said is wrong, can anyone find the problem? What are the specific thoughts of the presidents of the Japanese guilds? Will they tell others? Even if they said it, would anyone believe it? Therefore, Masamoto Matsumoto said that their thoughts are selfish, and even if they refute it, it is completely useless. As for the question of saying that the Ghost Dragon Society controls half of Japan, although it is not correct, after all, Hokkaido is between them and has no defense force at all. If Matsumoto Masaru insists on saying that they have controlled Hokkaido, then it is not The calculation was wrong, but nominally they did not control half of Japan's territory. Finally, regarding the strategic value of Fulcrum City and half of Japan, there is no need to mention this. Ordinary players are limited to identity issues and cannot make correct judgments on such macro battlefield information due to strategic layout issues. Secondly, even if there is sufficient battlefield information support, can ordinary players, as ordinary players, have the ability to independently conduct strategic-level intelligence assessments? Therefore, although there are many falsehoods, deliberately exaggerated and confusing content in Matsumoto Masaga's words, the average player either has no ability to discern, or has the ability to discern but cannot prove it. Anyway, no one can refute Matsumoto Masaga. So, since you can't refute it, you can only acquiesce. Therefore, even if there are problems with everything Masamoto Matsumoto said, it will only be accepted as fact by Japanese players.

After listening to Matsumoto Masaru's remarks, the presidents of the Japanese guilds almost fainted collectively. Who said that guy Masamoto Matsumoto was honest? This kid is simply a wolf in sheep's clothing!

The Japanese guild presidents here were annoyed that they were not ruthless enough before, and suddenly they heard the projection of Masamoto Matsumoto in the sky starting to speak again. To be honest, the presidents of these Japanese guilds are already a little afraid of Matsumoto Masaru's words. Although what this guy said is not a sonic attack, its power is definitely no worse than any weapon.

"I know that you will have a lot of thoughts after listening to my words." Masamoto Matsumoto said in as calm a tone as possible: "Some of you who don't know the truth and have a strong sense of justice may feel that I am wronged and will be indignant at your meeting. How can the president do such a shameless thing? Of course, there must be some people who think that what they did as president is wrong, but they also think that this is human nature. There are even some black-hearted guys who think that your president is cheating. That's what I should do. I don't care what you think. Anyway, I just want to say that I love the Yamato nation and I love my country, but what I love is this country, not someone in this country. I will not do it for you personally. I sacrifice my own interests for your own interests. Regarding your interests and my own, I value my own interests more than your interests. I dare to say this because I don’t feel that I should put my own interests above the interests of others. There is nothing shameful about being heavier. Maintaining my own legitimate interests is supported even by law, so I don’t want to sacrifice my own interests for the interests of others, especially when this behavior will harm the interests of more people, I Even less likely to do it.”

Hearing Matsumoto Masa's rather straightforward words, Japanese players had different reactions. Some selfish hypocrites began to criticize Masamoto Matsumoto for what he did wrong, but most people felt that Masamoto Matsumoto was right. If one's own family members and other people's family members are killed at the same time, it is normal to save one's own family members first. If one or two people in a thousand people save other people's family members first, then it is considered a high probability. Therefore, according to this popular ideological criterion, Matsumoto Masaru's behavior is actually not wrong at all.

The players in Fulcrum City were arguing about which side was right and which side was wrong, but Matsumoto Masaru's congratulatory voice rang out again. "I know that your opinions may be different, and some of you may be very angry and want to go to your own presidents to find out. However, I am here to ask you to suppress your anger for the time being and don't go to your President’s trouble. This is not because I am magnanimous, nor because I pretend to be a saint, but because I don’t want the Chinese to take advantage. Although I am convinced that the strategic value of Fulcrum City is not comparable to that of half of Japan. Territory is comparable, but I must admit that the strategic significance of Fulcrum City itself is actually very important, otherwise I would not have made it the first city that must be captured when I led you in the battle for Japan's restoration. So. , even if I don't go to reinforce Fulcrum City, I don't want it to fall into the hands of the Chinese. Therefore, Fulcrum City must not be 'chaotic' now. You must suppress your thoughts, temporarily unite and obey the command to fight against the coming Chinese counterattack, otherwise once your internal chaos breaks out, the Chinese can just take advantage of it and occupy Fulcrum City. I think that is something that no one wants to see."

Many people nodded their heads involuntarily when they heard this. After all, what Matsumoto Masaru said did make sense. Not to mention now, at any time, internal conflicts will only bring benefits to external enemies, but this situation is more obvious in Fulcrum City at this time.

After these people nodded, Masamoto Matsumoto continued as if he could see everyone's reactions: "Although I said before, I don't want to give up my legitimate interests for the interests of others, but at the same time, I am also a patriot, so, I feel that I am willing to make some small contributions to the national interests. Fulcrum City is a strategic focus. Regardless of whether we can hold it this time, Fulcrum City will be fought over again and again between us and the Chinese for a long time to come. Focus. It can be said that this city is destined to be in constant war and chaos since its establishment. Therefore, I propose a plan here. Although I cannot mobilize all my teams to defend Fulcrum City, I can lead some elites People have come to reinforce Fulcrum City. You may still have some impressions of the three angel ladies who appeared during the Battle of Fulcrum City. The three of them are actually members of our Ghost Dragon Society. I can lead them to join me to reinforce you. Although we cannot kill a large number of Chinese troops, at least we can help you block that guy from Ziri and the masters from the Frost Rose Alliance. This alone, I believe, can greatly increase the hope of holding Fulcrum City."

At this point, Masamoto Matsumoto suddenly paused, and then continued: "However, although I want to defend the city in this way, I also have conditions. I hope that I can make an equal exchange with your leaders. Fight here After that, I hope that Fulcrum City can become a city owned by the Ghost Dragon Society, because the Chinese will definitely continue to harass Fulcrum City in the future. If we, the Ghost Dragon Society, are not in charge, Fulcrum City will be lost sooner or later. So, instead of letting you keep it, A city that cannot be saved might as well leave this hot potato to me.

Of course, I don't mean to take advantage of you. The strategic value of Fulcrum City is of great importance. Although I also contributed in the previous battle, no matter who is right or wrong, at least Fulcrum City is now under the control of your guild, so I don’t want to protect the country with good intentions but end up with a reputation of taking advantage of the situation. . Therefore, I decided to replace them with cities and your guilds. I will exchange the city that has been occupied by our Ghost Dragon Society for the Fulcrum City. Of course, because of the importance of the Fulcrum City, a one-to-one exchange ratio is unfair, so I will exchange it for a one-to-four ratio. That is to say, according to the area of ​​the Fulcrum City, the Fulcrum City is exchanged for a city four times the area of ​​the Fulcrum City. However, Fulcrum City itself is very large. Except for the Tokyo area, I really can't find any city that has an area four times the size of Fulcrum City. Besides, with so many guilds crowded into one city, the distribution of rights is also a troublesome matter. So I am considering exchanging the Fulcrum City with ten to sixteen small and medium-sized cities, so that you can divide it more easily. Regarding my suggestion, if the guild leaders can accept it, please tell my special envoy. He will now have full authority to negotiate with the presidents on my behalf. As long as the agreement is reached, I will immediately lead the elites I can mobilize. Troops reinforce Fulcrum City. I trust your judgment, so I have prepared the team now. Whether I can start depends on your efforts. So, think carefully about my advice. "

As Matsumoto Masaru's words ended, the projection in the sky suddenly flashed a few times and then disappeared. But although the scene disappeared, the expressions of the Japanese guild presidents did not change for the better at all. These words of Masamoto Matsumoto not only prevented the trap carefully designed by these guys from being activated, but also trapped them themselves. Now they really hate Matsumoto Masagi's suggestion. How could the strategic significance of Fulcrum City be replaced by a city four times the area? Besides, this guy Masamoto Matsumoto actually pretended to split them into a dozen small and medium-sized cities for their good points. You must know that the value of a city is more like a diamond. Can a two-carat diamond have the same value as two one-carat diamonds? Besides, Masamoto Matsumoto didn't just split it in two. He split a diamond into more than a dozen pieces of crystal. Not only was it divided into many pieces, but the materials were also different. The price difference was definitely not Several times or dozens of times the problem. But what depresses these presidents the most now is that although they know that this business is going to be a huge loss, they still have to do it. Just like how they dealt with Matsumoto Masa before, now Matsumoto Masa threw this method back on their heads. The current choice for these guild presidents is to either accept the suggestion and lose the Fulcrum City, or reject the suggestion and lose the Fulcrum City and the guild together. Although all fools know that the loss of the former plan is smaller, after all, they gave away the Fulcrum City in vain. Such a large piece of meat has been swallowed, and they did not expect to spit it out. Who can bear such a torment?

The presidents of these Japanese guilds were feeling depressed. Unexpectedly, the special envoy who had been missing for a long time suddenly appeared from the top of a building next to them.

"Are you standing here to welcome me? Oh, how can you be so embarrassed?" The envoy said and jumped off the roof.

Because that guy had been wanted by these presidents before, and now as soon as he came out, the surrounding NPCs immediately rushed to catch him. However, before the NPCs rushed to him, the presidents found that the NPCs suddenly flew out together, and the special envoy asked with a smile: "Is this your way of hospitality? Or do you Are you planning to accept our president’s suggestion?”

Originally, the presidents planned to give this guy a showdown or something, but when they heard the other party's words, they immediately softened. Yes, the other party was threatening them, and there was no room for change. With the previous words, all Masamoto Matsumoto needs now is just an excuse. If these guys cooperate with Matsumoto Masa honestly, then Matsumoto Masa will have no excuse and can only get Fulcrum City. If they don't cooperate, then Matsumoto Masa will have an excuse to take Fulcrum City with their guild. Got it in the bag. In fact, these people already know clearly that even if they cooperate honestly now, when the Battle of Fulcrum City is over, their guild will definitely experience a large-scale shrinkage. After all, the things they did before had such a bad impact that no one with a slight sense of justice and a sense of right and wrong would agree with their actions. Although not everyone will leave their guild and join the Ghost Dragon Guild because of this disapproval, there will definitely be some radicals who will join the Ghost Dragon Guild. It's just that I know that these presidents are like cocks that have been defeated in a fight. Even if they know the result, they can only go step by step into Masamoto Matsumoto's trap.

"What do you want?" asked a big guild president who looked like a deflated ball.

The special envoy smiled and said: "It's not what we want, but what you want. I come to the negotiation with the sincerity of our president. You must first tell me whether you want to accept the suggestion, and then we can start talking." Specific details. Of course, if you refuse, even the details will be waived."

The president smiled bitterly and asked, "Do we have a choice?"

After hearing the president's words, the special envoy still replied calmly: "What are you talking about? Since it is a suggestion, it is naturally a choice. We can't put it on your head. The knife forces you to choose. You think so?"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing with him." Another president grabbed the president who was about to answer the conversation again and said: "We accept the suggestion and ask President Masamoto Matsumoto to come and reinforce us? That's okay. ?"

Hearing this, the special envoy chuckled, and then said: "It's not a question of whether it works or not, but your choice. Since you have chosen to accept President Masamoto Matsumoto's suggestion, let's discuss the details, shall we?"

"Details?" The presidents thought that the details this guy mentioned were just perfunctory at first, but they didn't expect that there were really details to talk about. But then they became worried. Could these guys be playing some tricks again? One president asked tentatively: "What do you mean by the details?"

The special envoy looked very confused and asked: "The details are of course asking you which cities you want to choose? Don't you understand this? I think our president made it very clear before!"

Upon hearing this detail, the presidents regained some of their energy. Although the big diamond in Fulcrum City will be forced to turn into a pile of worthless crystals, it is worse than nothing. The diamonds are destined to turn into crystals anyway. If you have that sad time, it is better to find a way to get two pieces. With better quality crystals, at least the losses wouldn’t be so heavy!

It's a pity that although these presidents had good ideas, they just underestimated the rigor of Matsumoto Masaru's work. When the special envoy saw that the presidents understood, he took out the map he carried and spread it on the ground, and then said: "Look carefully, the cities marked in red circles are all cities that can be used for trading. There is a record of the city's area next to each circle. You can calculate it yourself and it will be enough to meet four times of Fulcrum City. Don't choose too much. Of course, I know you will never choose less."

A Japanese president asked: "Um... the city area is not an integer. There is no way we can get exactly four times the area. What if the total area of ​​the city we choose is more than four times that of Fulcrum City?" what to do?"

"A maximum of one percent of the total area of ​​Fulcrum City is allowed. If it exceeds that, we will re-elect."

"Understood."

With a little more in mind, these presidents finally began to calculate the city area based on the city marks on the map, but they soon discovered a problem.

A guild president pointed to one of the cities and said: "This Xuyu County used to be the territory of our guild. I remember that the area is not this big!"

Another president also pointed to a city and said: "The area of ​​our guild's Sanmu Town is not quite right. The data marked on it is a bit larger than the area we measured before."

A shrewd president said: "Forget it, forget it! This must be a short-term plan by that guy Masamoto Matsumoto to deliberately take advantage of us! Now the situation is stronger than others, so bear with it! Fortunately The difference is not huge, it’s just that everything is rounded up!”

Just after the president finished speaking, someone else shouted: "But look at these cities, they are all former third-tier cities. Not to mention compared with Fulcrum City, they are incomparable even with those slightly larger cities. Ah! If we trade Fulcrum City for these cities, we will suffer a huge loss!"

Originally, the president was relatively polite when persuading the previous people, but when this person said it, he immediately became angry. "Don't we know we're at a loss? But don't you look at what's going on now. How can this be a negotiation? This is Masamoto Matsumoto holding a knife to our necks and signing a surrender agreement! Are you still bargaining with others? You need to be able to Why should we sign this thing if there is no room for bargaining?”

After being rushed by this man, all the presidents who had been shouting fell silent. yes. Now someone else's knife is hanging on my head! This is not negotiating a business deal, this is a blatantly unequal agreement! And it’s still the kind that won’t work without signing it!

After understanding the current situation, those people stopped clamoring. It was useless anyway, they were just causing trouble for themselves. The helpless guild leaders had to look at the map again to study how to choose a city. Although there was not a single good city among the circled cities, when choosing generals among the dwarves, you can always sort them out, right? No, that's not right. It’s not like there are no good cities here. The presidents were looking for it and suddenly discovered that there was a large city "Akita" circled on the map.

"Damn it, isn't this the wrong drawing?" In view of Matsumoto Masagi's previous behavior of being short on city area, these presidents have already determined that Matsumoto Masahi will not arrange any promising cities for them. , who knew that after searching, they actually found a city on the map that was considered a very large city before the war.

Although Akita is not a strategic city, its geographical location is very good and its area is very large. It can be regarded as an excellent city among first-tier cities. It is really surprising that such a city would be converted into a trading area.

Although I don’t know why Akita was included in the optional range, the presidents were not polite to Matsumoto Masaru and directly included this city. Then they discovered that there was a circle of small and medium-sized cities near Akita that were within the range of options. Although not as good as Akita, these cities are still good compared to cities in other places. At least they are much better than those third-tier cities that they have never heard of before. So, these presidents did not hesitate to draw all these cities within the city limits they requested. In the end, the area was calculated. Hey, it was just 0.9% more than the limit. That is to say, it is only one thousandth away from the upper limit set by Masamoto Matsumoto. Why not take advantage of such a good bargain? The gang president recorded all these cities without much discussion.

"That's it for these cities." After quickly confirming the city names, the presidents handed the information to the special envoy of Masamoto Matsumoto.

After taking the list and comparing the area with the map, the special envoy suddenly frowned and whispered to himself: "Strange, why is Akita also on the map?" Although he muttered not loudly, because those presidents were He was waiting for his answer, so almost everyone who was close heard his mutterings. These people couldn't help but feel secretly happy, thinking that something had gone wrong with the Ghost Dragon Club. Important cities have also been drawn into the candidate cities.

With this kind of thinking, the presidents felt that they had gained even more, so they urged the special envoy: "Can you give me an accurate answer?" Of course they were so anxious because they didn't want the other party to regret it. If the other party goes back and studies again and finds out that Akita should not be on the candidate list and scraps the plan and starts over, then they will really lose a lot. So they decided not to give the envoy a chance to react.

The special envoy was urged and said immediately: "Okay, okay, why do you seem to be more anxious than me!"

Those guild leaders were afraid that the other party would find a loophole, so they hurriedly said: "Why don't we hurry up? The Chinese troops have arrived outside the city. No matter how late they are, if they come in, we will have to bear the responsibility. Anyway, you won't suffer any loss inside or outside, right?" "

The special envoy smiled smugly when he was told that, and then said: "Okay, okay, isn't this just calculating the area? Let me see, yo, you really know how to calculate it? This dense card is just larger than the upper limit. If it's a little lower, you won't suffer at all."

"What? You set the upper limit, and we haven't exceeded it."

"I didn't say no. Come on, let's sign the agreement now. Once the agreement is confirmed, I can send a letter to the president immediately."

"Okay, let's sign the contract."

The special envoy quickly took out an agreement of the highest validity guaranteed by the system. This agreement alone was already worth tens of thousands of crystal coins. Show the virtual agreement to all the presidents for review, and then fill in the reserved spaces with the selected cities. Then the special envoy took out another agreement, and then used this agreement to stamp the big agreement. At the same time, the special envoy explained: "This is the entrustment agreement given to me by our president, indicating that I have the authority to sign this agreement on behalf of the Ghost Dragon Society."

The presidents nodded to express their understanding, and then read the agreement carefully. The system guarantee agreement is not like an agreement in reality that has many and complicated clauses in order to make excuses for litigation. The content of the agreement here is very simple, with only a few clauses in total. However, because of the strong guarantee of the system, The degree of reliability is often more useful than those agreements with thousands of clauses in reality. After all, the agreement is dead, but the system is alive. With the main system's intelligence beyond human beings and the absolute impartiality of third-party identities, any written agreement cannot compare with this system agreement.

After quickly reading the few terms of the agreement, the Japanese presidents each loudly shouted their agreement. This agreement is guaranteed by the system. You don't have to press your thumbprint or anything. As long as you confirm your agreement, the system will automatically add your name. Efficient and error-free.

After the agreement was concluded, the special envoy said: "Okay, the agreement is signed. Originally, according to international practice, we should have a cocktail party to celebrate at this time, but I know you are not in the mood, so forget it. I will go and inform you now. Our president is here to join the war. Please wait for the good news." After finishing speaking, the special envoy was about to leave. Suddenly he thought of something and turned back: "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. Before our troops arrive, you can do it yourself. We must also hurry up and prepare. We are only responsible for fully assisting you in resisting the Chinese attack. It does not mean that our Ghost Dragon Society will completely undertake the defense task. We cannot stop so many Chinese, so you have to work hard yourself. Okay, things That's all, goodbye everyone." After saying that, the special envoy directly threw out a teleportation scroll and stood on it, quickly disappearing in front of everyone.

"Phew, we finally sent this plague god away!" Seeing the special envoy leave, the presidents immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Another president said: "Haha, with Akita and the surrounding cities, we don't actually lose much. The output of Fulcrum City is indeed more than those cities, but as Matsumoto Masahiro and the others said, Fulcrum City This is a city that the Chinese must fight for. There will definitely be constant wars and chaos in the future. Even if some of the output is lost, it is not as good as making money in these second-tier cities."

"That's right." One of the presidents laughed: "That guy Matsumoto Masahiro wants to fight with the Chinese, so let him fight. As long as we make money, it will be fine. I didn't expect that this time it would be a blessing in disguise. China Although people are hateful, their philosophies are still good. Isn’t there a saying that a blessing in disguise is a blessing? This is the unexpected blessing we get because of a blessing in disguise. Hahahaha..."

While the presidents of this group of Japanese guilds were proudly complimenting each other, in the new guild headquarters of the Ghost Dragon Society in the central district of Tokyo, the special envoy who had left before was laughing with Matsumoto Masaru.

"Hahahaha... Those idiots really think they are getting a big deal. Let's see if I can kill them." Matsumoto Masaru said fiercely.

The president of a small guild who followed Masamoto Matsumoto to leave Fulcrum City asked: "Matsumoto-kun, why can't I understand? It seems that you mean that we took advantage of those worms, but you clearly The large city of Akita was given to them, does this count as taking advantage?"

Masamoto Matsumoto smiled and looked around at the other presidents who had followed him out of Fulcrum City and asked, "Don't you understand either?" Seeing those people nodding, Masamoto Matsumoto smiled and explained, "Okay, I'll explain it to you and you'll understand. Let me ask you, how many guilds are there in that temporary guild alliance?"

The presidents were stunned for a moment, then raised their heads and counted, but after a long time no one reported the numbers.

Seeing that they couldn't calculate it, Matsumoto Masahiro said: "Okay, no need to calculate it, there are a lot of them anyway, right?"

Those people all started.

"Okay, they have a lot of guilds, so they need many cities to occupy them, so that everyone can have a balanced mind. But now comes the problem. Because Akita is too big and takes up too much area, the cities they chose have a total of There are only ten of them, and the other cities except Akita are very small." At this point, Masamoto Matsumoto pointed to a president and said: "Assuming that you are also a member of this alliance, I will give Akita to him now. What would you think?"

The president immediately said: "I'm definitely not going to do it. We all worked together to conquer the Fulcrum City in exchange for so many cities. Why should he be allowed to monopolize such a big city? Wait, I understand!"

Once the president understood it, everyone else also understood it. Matsumoto is congratulating you for this poison! Isn't this causing an internal fight between them? Brothers from the same mother can still fight over the difference of a few square meters between two houses when their families separate. These guilds, which are purely based on profit, have such a big difference in city area, who would want a smaller one? Isn’t this nonsense if you don’t fight?

After Matsumoto Masa’s previous revelations in Fulcrum City, what can be seen is that after the Battle of Fulcrum City is over, there will definitely be many players who will leave those shameless guilds and join the Ghost Dragon Guild or reorganize their own guilds to follow Matsumoto Let's do it together. Of course, there won't be too many such people, and they shouldn't have much impact on the main power of those guilds. However, the incident itself was tantamount to planting a rift between the members of those guilds and their leadership. After these guilds move to Akita, there may not be much trouble in the early stage, but as time goes by, they will inevitably start fighting again over territorial issues. Those members were already a little dissatisfied with the behavior of their presidents, and they stayed here just for the sake of the guild they had been in for a long time. However, patience has its limits after all. These already dissatisfied members found out that after their president brought them to Akita, instead of following Masamoto Matsumoto to attack the Chinese, they instead started a war of attrition among themselves. What do you think they would think?

The only outcome that can be expected is that with the melee between these guilds, their members will continue to lose. In the end, they will either reorganize themselves or they will all go to Matsumoto Masaga. Anyway, those moths are completely finished. Without the support of the members under their command, these polished commanders are nothing at all. As for the Akita Castle paid as a price, this can actually be taken back by force when the moths are almost done fighting. Anyway, they will not have many members left by then. As long as Matsumoto Masaka gives any reason, he can kill them all. And no one is gossiping.

The bunch of morons who were tricked by Matsumoto Masahiro and the others have not thought of this yet. They are still immersed in the excitement of picking up a big deal. Of course, some people may have thought that these cities are not enough, but their next step What I was thinking about was not the battlefield that would break out later, but planning how to get an extra share. With their thoughts like this, it is not unfair at all to be tricked to death.

The Yin people will return to the Yin people, and the battle in Fulcrum City must be fought seriously. Although Masamoto Matsumoto knew that this was a play arranged for Japanese players to watch, acting also requires full concentration, otherwise the joke would be too big if someone saw through it.

"Okay, now that the agreement is in hand, let's start preparations." Masamoto Matsumoto turned around and said to the presidents: "I will take the elite of the Ghost Dragon Association, and you will stay and look after the house. Although the Chinese are now focusing their energy on They are all placed over at Fulcrum City, but so many cities here cannot be unprepared to prevent the Chinese from getting into trouble if they come back."

"Don't worry, we'll be watching from here. Just go and help Fulcrum City." The presidents promised with all their strength.

"Okay, let's set off." Masamoto Matsumoto waved and left the conference hall with his subordinates. Outside, he met the elites participating in the war and climbed onto the flying dragon that had been prepared and flew towards Fulcrum City.
