Confirm that direct surrender was attempted before resorting to bribery channels. 2. Validate that corruptible enemy officials have been identified and that gifts (women, treasures) were delivered through the correct intermediaries. 3. Check that a credible mutual-destruction threat is prepared as fallback if both surrender and bribery channels fail.
