Of course, it's all about management, and even at this point, Delk has no intention of directly attacking him.

Instead, he first asked the troops who had just finished the frontline operations to withdraw and rest, and he first made contact with the Otto Empire in the name of the Seven Star Alliance Alliance Committee...

"According to the size of the Hundred Ghost Empire, it is definitely not something that can be defeated with just a few victories. It is not that easy to destroy an empire. General Lombard should know this better than anyone else."

Having said this, Delk, who was maintaining the remote video conversation, took a deep look at Lombard.

"If this battle continues, even if we are willing to intervene, facing the Hundred Ghost Empire that is forced to a desperate end and is desperately counterattacking, you will inevitably have to bear huge risks and pay a price that cannot be ignored..."

Although Delk had not finished speaking, the meaning of his words was already very obvious, that is, he was asking Lombard if he was willing to accept the method of having the Hyakuki Empire pay compensation and then cease the war.

According to Delk's idea, although the previous actions of the Hundred Ghost Empire were annoying, the Otto Empire had already made them pay the price, and their anger should have almost dissipated.

If the fight continues, to be honest, there will no longer be much benefit value.

In this regard, Lombard undoubtedly fully understood the meaning of Delk's words, and then raised his hand...

"Okay, General Delk, I already understand what you mean, so let me tell you straight away, the armistice is okay, the compensation list is here, and it must be paid in one lump sum!"

This preparation is enough to prove that Lombard has already had this intention.

But Delk is not surprised. After all, there are only a few solutions to situations like this.

After receiving the list sent by Lombard, Delk took a closer look and his eyelids suddenly jumped twice.

The things listed on this list can be summarized in two words, that is ‘resources’.

Lombard, or the Otto Empire, had a clear goal. They didn't even want planets, they just wanted readily available resources, and the amount was huge.

When a one-time payment is required, even an empire-level power will be severely damaged in a short period of time, and it will be difficult to make any big moves.

In other words, this is probably the fundamental purpose of the Otto Empire.

As early as when the war around Kalembel was launched, facing the invading First Universe Alliance, the two sides fought many times, and the Otto Empire and the Hyakki Empire themselves had already formed a rift.

In addition, the style of the Hundred Ghost Empire has always been arrogant and strong, and now the new and old hatreds are combined, it may not be that easy to make things right.

I would like to ask if the Otto Empire has ever thought of taking this opportunity to simply eliminate this hidden danger?

One hundred percent they have thought about it!

Even if the Ye Chamber of Commerce is willing to call on the alliance to send troops, they will do so directly.

But at this moment, according to Delk's wishes, they made it clear that they were going to focus on reconciliation.

In fact, the Otto Empire can also accept this.

However, they will definitely make the Hundred Ghost Empire pay a sufficient price, and this price will at least prevent the Hundred Ghost Empire from easily launching troops in the next twenty or thirty years, or even longer!

During this period of time, their Otto Empire was able to develop better because they received huge resource compensation.

Amidst the fluctuations, even if the Hyakki Empire can recover from the first-line powers at the empire level, the gap has widened, and it is generally difficult to easily pose a threat to the Otto Empire.

Of course, so far, Delk is only discussing this matter with the Otto Empire.

Now that the Otto Empire has accepted his proposal and offered a price, under this premise, whether the Hundred Ghost Empire is willing to accept the price is another matter.

Without any hesitation, Delk, who had completed communication with Lombard, quickly began to stop the war in the name of the alliance and demanded war compensation from the Hyakki Empire that had provoked the dispute to calm the war.

The Hundred Ghost Empire undoubtedly does not want to fight. Although the recent rumors have made it difficult for them to easily trust the coalition forces, the Seven Star Alliance and Ye's Chamber of Commerce's signs are still somewhat credible in the eyes of the Hundred Ghost Empire.

Therefore, the Hundred Ghost Empire also showed some willingness to cease the war.

After all, they are the one who is being beaten now. How hard can they think about it to be unwilling to cease the war?

In fact, the Hundred Ghost Empire is already mentally prepared. Considering the current situation, as long as the Otto Empire can make the Otto Empire withdraw its troops, even if it costs a little more, they will not be unable to accept it...

As a result, after taking a look at the compensation list issued by the Otto Empire, the Hyakki generals on the front line could not hold back for a moment and turned over the table and cursed!

Although these generals are generally only responsible for fighting, not development, so they are not particularly clear about the consumption of development.

But even so, they can see that the list listed by the Otto Empire is no longer as simple as a lion opening its mouth. This is simply too much!

And they even asked for a lump sum payment!

Although in recent years, their Hundred Ghost Empire has participated in expeditions, occupied many planets, and gained a lot of resource points.

But their army is fighting on the front line, and their expenditures have always been considerable.

Not to mention these resource points, the extraction of resources also takes time and even requires early investment. It does not mean that you can obtain a lot of resources immediately once you capture them.

In addition, their Hundred Ghost Empire is famous for its military strength, and its development capabilities are actually relatively average. It is not as well-off internally as it seems.

These factors caused them to face the list issued by the Otto Empire and they were unable to produce such a huge amount of resources in a short period of time.

Fortunately, this was not a face-to-face negotiation between the two parties.

Otherwise, if the Hundred Ghost Empire flips the table, the two sides will definitely fall out instantly.

They were very excited, but the Hyakki generals were not stupid either. They knew that if this opportunity to cease war with the Otto Empire was missed, what would follow them would most likely be a nightmare.

But they can't accept the current price.

In this way, after the Hyakki generals calmed down, they made some adjustments to the price offered by the Otto Empire, adjusted it to a point they could accept, and sent it to Delk, asking Delk to use this

Let’s talk to the Otto Empire about the price.

What they didn't expect was that when faced with the price conveyed by Delk, the Otto Empire didn't even look at it, directly rejected it, and asked the Hyakuki Empire to make a decision within three days.
