Chapter 296: The Batavia Agreement (Request for monthly votes!)

If the conditions of Australasia seemed to be a bit of a lion's roar, then the conditions proposed by the Dutch Government were simply nonsense.

It was absolutely impossible for the Australasian Government to mobilize so many people just for a compensation of 100,000 pounds and an apology.

Such conditions were akin to dismissing beggars, and only strengthened the resolve of Kent, who was originally determined to take advantage of the Dutch.

"If your country doesn't have much sincerity in the peace talks, then I think it's better to let the military strength of both sides decide the outcome. The conditions of the peace talks can be decided by the victorious side in the war, regardless of the outcome, we will not have any objections." Minister Kent sneered at the Dutch representative and put forward his own opinions.

Kent was a graduate of the Military University and had once served as Australasia's Minister of Defense.
