Chapter 586 (1/1)
Reston chose to compromise.
To be precise, it was the White House that chose to compromise. Leston, as a negotiator, can think of what happened next with his toes.
The family members of the soldiers who returned to the Philippines held up protest slogans and anti war slogans, blocking the Philippine presidential palace and the residence of Aquino's dead. The sufferings of the soldiers' families have been echoed by other anti war figures in the Philippines and the citizens who have lost their sources of livelihood because of the war. The waves of protest are wave after wave, and the waves are even better than the others. This warm card played by Jiang Chen has achieved extraordinary results in the Philippines, which has already been under heavy economic burden.
Only a small number of people, races, Lords and righteous people chanted the slogan of ”never compromise, fight to the end, and drag the fatherland into the water”, and resolutely opposed Aquino's compromise on the territorial issue. But these calls are already thunder, the rain is small. People are always fickle. In peacetime, they may clamour for war because of their pride, but in wartime, most of them will change their previous ideas as the quality of life declines.
Since the signing of the cease-fire agreement, star ring trade entered into the war for a total of seven days, while the Philippine currency devalued by nearly 20%, and prices soared by 50%. At the beginning, those monkeys who clamored to crush the new country and turn the Panu islands into a Philippine colony suddenly calmed down and began to reflect on their own life and values.
Forced by domestic pressure, Aquino government finally returned to the negotiation table after insisting on it for half a month.
The Philippines recognized the independence of the Moro state, and the Sulu islands, Mindanao island and part of its territorial waters belonged to the Moro state. Five Philippine divisions withdrew from the North Missouri high province of Mindanao.
In contrast, the star ring trade frigates and submarines withdrew from the Sulu Sea. Two guerrilla divisions of Moro withdrew from dabukas and siagao in the north of Mindanao, and returned control of the area to the Philippines. At the same time, both the Moro side and the Philippines unconditionally released their prisoners of war.
As a result, Moro finally completed its claim for independence for decades and became the 195th sovereign state in the world. The Philippines lost its second largest island after Luzon Island, and the Philippines fell into a slump.
The star ring trade, which contributed to all this, has become their ”sovereign state” and the biggest winner in this war.
Because the star ring trade was a war that intervened on Saturday, and the war just ended in a week, the war was also called Saturday war by the international community. (to be continued. )
