Information asymmetry could be leveraged for many things, no matter how powerful and self-confident the Capital Commandant himself might be, the situation in District 13 was currently quite passive.
Therefore, in this negotiation, they were forced to forgive the illegal espionage activity of the Radiant Corps.
The terms for both parties were for the Radiant Corps to help District 13 deal with the Green Mist Legion and the Ninth District army outside, although confronting the Ninth District required the Commandant Mansion to send troops as well.
District 13, on the other hand, agreed to cooperate with the Radiant Corps, eliminating the Parliament of District 13, and having an envoy from the First District be stationed in the new Parliament.
As for the allocation of resources from the Ninth and Tenth Districts, that would be discussed after everything was over.
The deal was struck, and the Commandant Mansion sent out troops!
