When the Chief of Staff got angry, everyone's emotions beca unstable.
All at once, there were demands for Kekistan to provide an explanation, calls for negotiations with Evil Luo Country, and demands for withdrawing troops from Kekistan. There were also calls to voice internationally, strongly condemning the indiscriminate attacks by the Evil Army, and the mass killing of civilians.
Of course, there were also demands to increase aid, for Wale Country to send more troops into Kekistan to battle Evil Luo Country and quickly defeat this shaless nation, causing it to collapse!
Liu Zhizhong sat there, his face solemn, listening to everyone's passionate anger. He simply listened and did not express an opinion. After all, such a rescue mission had indeed proven costly, and it was necessary to let everyone vent their emotions.
When the voices gradually quieted down, everyone regained their composure, seeing Liu Zhizhong not speaking, just maintaining a serious expression, thus also quieting down.
At such tis, it was crucial to see how Liu Zhizhong would express his stance. The President's prestige both in the military and among civilians was enough to stabilize the situation and make a decision at such a ti.
Liu Zhizhong took a deep breath, lit a cigarette, and slowly exhaled the smoke before speaking: "In this situation, everyone's concern and anger are very normal. However, we must not lose our bearings and act on emotion, right?"
This statent indeed comforted everyone.
Liu Zhizhong continued: "Honestly, like everyone else, I am anxious, and I didn't sleep well all night. But ultimately, I feel we must stay calm, and not act impulsively. Kekistan has been making efforts, which is their legitimate obligation. As for us, let's wait to see the outco of their negotiations with the Evil Luo people. But I suspect, given General Ong's special status, Evil Luo Country will likely use him as a bargaining chip with us. As for what kind of bargaining, it's unclear, but I feel the Evil Luo people will certainly take the initiative to contact us."
This statent had no issues, everyone internally agreed and understood the President's viewpoint was very reasonable.
Then Liu Zhizhong said: "We must not act chaotically, nor emotionally. The failed rescue incident must not be discussed publicly; confidentiality is for the best. The enthusiasm of the Valle People's support for Kekistan is high, it must not be dampened by this setback. Civilization is difficult, justice is difficult, we must withstand it when tis are tough. The guidance we provide to the people must be positive and forward-looking. Everyone knows the standing of General Ong in the hearts of the Valle People, the people also know his personal relationship with , so regarding matters about him, we must handle everything properly."
"If exchanging prisoners can bring General Ong back, that would be the best result. At that ti, we will call him back directly, and he won't be deployed again. This fact can also be publicly announced nationwide."
"Currently, let's stay stable, keep quiet, maintaining confidentiality is key..."
"..."
Under such advice, nobody had any objections, thus forming a resolution for confidentiality.
When the eting was adjourned, Liu Zhizhong added: "Ladies and gentlen, the marathon next week, those who should participate must participate, those who should compete must compete. Leading the Valle People to continue sprinting on the path of happiness with a positive and uplifting attitude is our purpose. Making the people no longer yearn for a better life, but instead experience it and feel satisfied, is the goal our Party and military strive for. Ensuring global civilization advances along the road of justice, morality, respect, equality, freedom, and peace is our code of conduct! Let us work hard together as one!"
...
Sure enough, within two days, initial intentions from the prisoner exchange negotiations between Kekistan and Evil Luo Country erged.
Of course, Evil Luo Country wasn't releasing prisoners without conditions, but rather using Weng Xingban as leverage, presenting many harsh conditions.
Firstly, for Weng Xingban alone, fifteen nad Evil Luo Army officers must be exchanged, so are company commanders, so are regint commanders, of course not battalion commanders, division commanders, or platoon commanders.
And who are these fifteen officers? Such a clear and direct exchange requirent!
Actually, though these individuals may not be big fish in the military ranks, their backgrounds are indeed big fish.
They are from families of Evil Luo Country's political bigwigs, economic bigwigs, or even military bigwigs, or they themselves are direct descendants.
These individuals, as second-generation elites, weren't going to the battlefield to fight, but to experience life or enhance their résumés and accumulate experience.
With these experiences, after retiring or leaving the battlefield, they can rightfully rise in ranks or make fortunes, or network to expand family businesses!
This pattern and scheming—isn't it familiar?
So people join the army genuinely to survive or sacrifice; so join the army genuinely to exchange others' lives for their résumés, always safely, with outstanding achievents.
In the end, these second-generation elites of bigwigs clearly had bad luck; at a relatively safe place on the front line, their location was pinpointed by Kekistan intelligence personnel, initiated by Weng Xingban for an in-depth special assault, resulting in the capture of all 15 influential second-generation elites in several rounds.
Having been captured, isn't it natural for their families to urgently demand a prisoner exchange?
To have Weng Xingban return alive, Kekistan must exchange him 1-to-15!
Of course, this offers considerable status to Weng Xingban, but is it important?
Secondly, aside from exchanging these 15 second-generation elite nominal soldiers, Kekistan must withdraw from the Mariupol defense line, handing over the entire city of Mariupol to Evil Luo Country for occupation.
Goodness gracious…
Is Weng Xingban's status worth a military-industrial town with 3 million people? Isn't that quite generous?
However, once Mariupol is given to People of Evil Country, and the defense line withdrawn, this completely exposes Fuerqinke's eastern gateway to Evil Country's aircraft artillery, doesn't it?
Trying to build a stronger defense line later is truly impossible!
This is tantamount to clearing the obstacles before the door, opening it for Evil Luo Country's steel torrents to attack, to crazily assault.
Kekistan's capital is in jeopardy…
However, this is only the second condition, there's a third condition: Once Weng Xingban is successfully exchanged, all volunteer forces of the Wale Republic must withdraw from Kekistan, cease fighting against the Evil Army, and stop supporting Kekistan with finances, logistics, or armants!
Do you think that's all?
With their appetites wide open, the Evil Luo people presented a fourth condition: Wale Country must directly call Evil Luo Country's governnt, proposing to establish diplomatic relations with Evil Luo Country, exchange ambassadors, establish international friendship relations, and achieve strategic cooperation on oil and gas resources.
No conditions can be left out among these four!
The appetite of Evil Luo Country is truly not ordinary.
Shaless countries always disregard ethics, disregard moral principles, only pursuing their own interests!
Facing such demanding terms, how will Luzelski and Chi Zhongshui, the Presidents, respond?
