章 377: Influence

Without exception, representatives from the United Kingdom, France, Austria, and Spain appeared at the negotiation table. Unable to get what they wanted from secret negotiations, the Southern Government did not hesitate to invite the great powers to intervene.

To balance the power of both the North and the South, this was the common wish of the four countries. Since the Northern Government had greater comprehensive national strength than the South, it naturally became the target of suppression by all.

Even Indian representatives appeared at the negotiation table. Forget talking about racial conflicts or white supremacy—when it came to interests, all these issues took a back seat.

Of course, the Indians, being the weakest in power, merely had a seat to listen on the side, waiting for the outcome. They still had no say at the negotiation table.
