Stabilize the Tiaoman Empire?
This was almost an impossible task!
The meeting didn't continue until Colin returned.
The most critical issue was actually whether they could stabilize the Tiaoman Empire.
However, including Herbert, no one held any hope, not even a sliver of illusion!
It wasn't that the Tiaoman Authority wasn't willing to endure a period of time for the sake of victory in the great war, but rather, as Norman mentioned, five years was just too long.
During secret contacts before, Tiaoman envoys had always emphasized that as long as the Liangxia Empire intervened militarily in Iraq, the Tiaoman Empire would not stand idly by and would definitely take action when necessary to ensure that its core interests in the Boss Bay region would not be damaged.
Subsequently, intelligence provided by the CIA proved that what the Tiaoman envoy had said was true.
