"No, listen to me, the Kaiser's request must be refused. We can win a relatively small amount of benefits, but we must not make people feel that our position is unstable......" Gu Shuhan tried her best to analyze the reasons for her choice to her subordinates without involving the agreement signed between the Chinese government and the Entente countries.

Although she will not take the initiative to inquire about political affairs from Bai Yu and the Chinese government, because Gu Shuhan does business with the Bai family in Europe and the United States, it is inevitable that she will know some information in the process. What's more, Bai Yu never deliberately concealed her in these matters. Therefore, for the overall situation, Gu Shuhan has a certain grasp.

From the perspective of the company's current interests, these subordinates' considerations are understandable, but from the perspective of the country's and even long-term interests, it is clear that the gains outweigh the losses.

The marketing director is not an opinionated person, not to mention that most of the people who work in Gu's factory now have reverence for Gu Shuhan, who single-handedly founded this group, so they are willing to listen to Gu Shuhan's opinion.

After listening to Gu Shuhan's reasoned analysis, the sweet female voice on the other end of the phone said, "Okay, I understand, what you said makes sense." I will relay your words to the director of the plant and try to convince him. Because you refused to accept the Kaiser's order, the factory director didn't sleep well for the past two days, and he was still thinking about how to convince you. ”

Since it involves something at this level, of course, it must be grasped by Gu Shuhan, a person who often deals with the government, and the factory director must have no objections to this.

Over the course of the year, Gu's Factory has been in the process of amassing huge amounts of wealth and then spending it.

In order to enhance China's combat strength in the shortest possible time, Gu Shuhan did not choose to start with the relatively easy engines used in civil airliners, such as turbojet engines, turbofan engines, and turboprop engines, but chose the most difficult and technically complex turboshaft engine as the direction of development.

Turboshafts can be used in fighter jets, and if they can be produced before the end of the European war, it will surely be able to achieve a greater advantage for China. For now, of course, this fighter is not for sale, and its strategic significance is greater than its economic significance.

However, from piston engines to turbine engines is a great leap after all, those talents under Gu Shuhan's previous subordinates, just the development of piston propeller aircraft has spent a lot of effort, and now, Gu Shuhan suddenly stuffed them with a more difficult subject, they naturally have to spend a longer time to digest and study - even Gu Shuhan's detailed explanation can't shorten the process much.

In this way, the development of the turboshaft was carried out day by day at an extremely slow pace.

In October of that year, the Russian Soviet regime overthrew the Provisional Government and replaced it. Prior to this, Tsar Nicholas II and his family had been executed by the Soviet regime, and the Tsar, his wife Alexandra, and several of their children, who had enjoyed the glory of the first half of his life, died a miserable death. And Kerensky and others, who signed an entente with the Chinese government at the beginning, naturally will not end well. The Soviets showed no mercy to these old-fashioned aristocratic forces.

In addition to cracking down on the old forces, as soon as the Soviet government came to power, it could not wait to issue an ultimatum to the Chinese government, ordering them to return the lands lost during the period of the Provisional Government.

It is not to blame them for attaching so much importance to this matter, you must know that it is because of this incident that the provisional government has completely lost the trust of the people. If the young Soviet regime had not been able to settle the matter beautifully, the populace would have been suspicious of them and had no sense of trust.

Gaining popular support and gaining a firm foothold was an extremely important matter for the Soviets, who had just come to power in Russia.

In their diplomatic rhetoric to China, the Soviets stressed that the Provisional Government could not represent the whole of Russia, so the number of contracts signed between the Provisional Government and China was naturally innumerable. If China wants to maintain friendship with Russia, it should take the initiative to return these territories that belong to Russia. In addition, the spokesman of the Russian Foreign Ministry also condemned the unjust act of the Chinese ** team to invade and invade Siberia, the inherent territory of their country, and demanded that the Chinese government return Siberia when it returns Russian territory.

Seeing this news, the people of the Chinese government almost died of laughter. The meat is in your mouth, and you still want to make people spit it out with a few words? Dream!

Isn't it just a war of words, who wouldn't? A spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry immediately issued a statement refuting Russia's condemnation one by one, to the following effect.

The territory recaptured by the Chinese ** team some time ago is the inherent territory of China, but it was shamelessly robbed by you Russia in the Qing Dynasty, and now it has been returned to its original owner, and you Russians still have the face to ask for it from our Huaguo again? After all, the Provisional Government was also your ruling government, so why didn't the contracts signed with China count? According to you, wouldn't the contract signed with the Qing government during the Tsarist period be even less valuable? If you want to break the contract, let's break the contract together, anyway, this land will be ours in the end.

As for Siberia, you say it's yours? It's ridiculous! According to you Europeans, whoever 'discovers' the Borderlands belongs to whoever owns them. At the beginning, it was our Chinese people who first 'discovered' Siberia, but we Chinese people were merciful, seeing that you were so pitiful, so we let you dig up mineral resources there for so many years, which is already very good, and now, we want to take it back, and that is also a matter of course! Don't bully us Chinese people who don't understand the rules of your Europeans, so fool us! We are not easy to bully, the territory of China is indivisible, you will die and take these lands for yourself!

After saying this, he almost made the Soviet government officials vomit blood with anger. You said you found it first, so why didn't you occupy it and didn't develop it? Who is to blame for losing the ground? We've developed the land, and you're going to pick up the ready-made, don't you want to be so shameless!

Fortunately, they didn't expect to say a few words to let Hua really return the territory to them. Therefore, on the one hand, they instigated the hatred of the people in China against China, and on the other hand, they sent people to Mongolia to make trouble for China.

During the Qing Dynasty, in order to stabilize the group of masters in Mongolia, the Qing government sent princesses to make peace all the year round. Since the invasion of China by Western countries, China has been unable to control Mongolia, and the hearts of the people in Mongolia have naturally become more volatile, and many Mongolian princes have been eager to try and stand on their own feet from China. If it weren't for the fear of retaliation from China and the slaughter of other countries around them after they became independent, they would have acted a long time ago.

Therefore, after the Russian government sent an olive branch to Mongolia and said that it would support their independence, some people immediately could not sit still.

A conspiracy was quietly underway between Russia and Mongolia.

There were "magpies" planted in Russia, and not long after the Russian government's action, the Chinese government got the relevant news.

Almost at the same time, the long-neglected Emperor Taisho of Japan also came to me, saying that China's invasion of Russian territory was unforgivable, unreasonable and unjust, and demanded that China return all the territory it had seized from Russia, otherwise it would be punished against China!

If Lenin's actions in Russia are justified, then the clamor of the Japanese Emperor Taisho is a bit of a no-brainer.

Previously, after the Chinese ** team went on an expedition to Russia, the Taisho Emperor jumped out to denounce Hua's "interference in the internal affairs of other countries", and the Chinese government was busy celebrating the recapture of lost territory and developing its own strength, ignoring him. Unexpectedly, now, he is unwilling to be lonely again.

When he learned that the Japanese soldiers in the Chinese concession were still secretly assembled, the chief of staff of the military department let out a sneer.

Since the Japanese emperor himself rushed to find death, he couldn't complain about them. It just so happened that they had long wanted to teach this group of people a good lesson and drive them out of the territory of Huaguo!

As for Lenin...... Before he sat down in his ass and his hand stretched out so long, he began to take care of other people's affairs, so don't blame them for chopping off his outstretched hand!

In fact, it was the chief of the general staff of the Chinese state who did not understand Lenin and Emperor Taisho.

Lenin will not say anything, in order to gain a firm foothold and for the future development of Russia, he will definitely weaken the strength of China as much as possible and disturb the sight of China, which is very understandable.

As for Emperor Taisho, the sadness in his heart was completely unknown to the Chief of the General Staff of Huaguo. If he had a choice, why did Emperor Taisho bother to "denounce justice" for Russia? It's not that his mental illness has been committed again, and he has once again lost face in public! Because of this, he was once again under pressure from the cabinet and the military department. Now, they are all waiting for him to abdicate automatically and let his son, Crown Prince Hirohito, become regent, and the people are generally suspicious of him.

In order to divert the attention of the people and turn internal contradictions into external contradictions, so as to keep the crumbling position of the emperor under his ass, Emperor Taisho also fought hard. Even if there is no reason to go to war, he will find one himself! If Japan wins this time, Japan will be able to continue to expand its sphere of influence in Huaguo, continue to grab high profits from the fat sheep of Huaguo, and his resume will also add a brilliant stroke, at that time, even if the cabinet and the military department want to force him to abdicate, they must consider it carefully, right?

Emperor Taisho thought very beautifully, but he didn't know that some people couldn't be provoked, and today's Huaguo is not the country where he could brush up on glory at will!

It can only be said that he knows too little about today's China and its government. He only knew that the forces of Huaguo had just carried out a consolidation, but he did not know how tough the current Chinese government is. If China was still weak and could be bullied, would the German army in China be wiped out so lightly? Will Russia be defeated so easily?

Perhaps, Emperor Taisho was not completely unaware of this, but it was just that his preconceived notions of the country of China hindered his judgment, and his desire for victory blinded his heart.

In short, he completely ruined his future with a fiasco.
