Chapter 590: Six Nations Interfere

The diplomatic means of the two countries are directly aimed at Russia, especially the prime ministers have come to visit wèn, unmistakable pressure, now Russia is a little unbearable, Nicholas II is a high tsar, in Russia is a man of his word, holding strong authority, but in the face of the prime ministers of Britain and France, especially the straightforward threat, even if it is strong, can only endure. ⊙ top novel,

The prime ministers of the two countries directly used the simplest method, most of Russia's military materials cannot be produced by themselves, and even if they are self-produced, there are also a large number of materials that need to be imported, such as the artillery steel used in heavy artillery, as well as the armor plates of naval guns and battleships, without the support of Britain, Russia's armaments are in an absolute weak state in the first place, let alone fighting with Germany, and when the northwest really fights, there will also be problems. As for the finances, it is even more controlled by France, which is Russia's largest creditor, and the funds that Russia owes to France have been postponed several times, and if France forces debts, maybe Russia will go bankrupt directly.

Different from the previous diplomatic concerns, before the previous war, there was only a limited expression of disappointment, which was a straightforward frontal pressure, and their opinions were clearly put forward, they absolutely disagreed, Russia and the Northwest fought endlessly in the Far East, as for the general mobilization, even more so don't think about it, if Russia does not agree, they can even kick Russia out of the Entente.

Nicholas II suppressed his anger, but he was helpless, Russia's dependence on foreign countries was too great, just like the Russo-Japanese War a few years ago, knowing that Britain was behind it, but there was nothing to do, and now, behind the northwest there was clearly a Germany. It stands to reason that there is no problem now, but it is still the same result. The reasons are not the same, but Russia has no way either.

The current situation. In this case, if Russia is kicked out of the Entente again, with the contradictions between Russia and Germany, maybe Germany and the northwest will jointly attack Russia, even if Russia will not be destroyed. It will also be severely weakened, and even the basis of the Tsar's rule will be shaken.

After a tense meeting, Nicholas II promised not to make a national mobilization, but asked Britain and France to give Russia the necessary support, and at the same time guaranteed that the Northwest would not attack Russian territory in the Far East.

Britain and France, of course, agreed to this, and since Russia had made such a big concession, Britain and France were also obliged to guarantee the security and interests of their allies. After urgent consultations, Britain and France also signed a number of agreements, mostly for economic cooperation, mainly in support of Russia. Let Russia recover from the war as much as possible, and on the other hand, belong to the British and French diplomats. Large-scale mediation efforts have also begun.

Mainly for the Northwest side, to solve the problem. First of all, there is the German side, in the eyes of Britain and France. It is with the support of Germany that the Northwest will be so unscrupulous, fighting such a war with the powerful Russia in the Far East, the two major countries go all out, even Germany can't withstand it, and got Yang Yuanzhao's reminder, Germany also knows that there must be a war with Britain and France, and hopes that the Northwest can consume the strength of Russia to reduce the pressure on Germany's eastern front, but the unmistakable threat of Britain and France made Wilhelm II understand that if he refused, war would inevitably break out, and now Germany has just begun to prepare for war, Compared with preparing Britain and France a little earlier, it will be a big loss.

Of course, the necessary benefits still have to be taken, some of the things that were opposed by Britain and France, such as the Baghdad railway, the port of Basra, and some Southeast Asian shipping lanes and the right of way, Britain and France have made certain concessions, and even the tonnage of the Suez Canal has been greatly improved, which is not a small benefit for Germany.

Between Germany and the Northwest, there is no alliance relationship, at that time Germany also vaguely reminded the Northwest, whether to conclude an agreement with the Allies, the Northwest with a battle with Russia, proved his strength, according to the estimate of the German General Staff, if the alliance is really concluded, it is not only Germany that suffers from the enemy, Russia is the same, as long as the Northwest in Russia goes all out, at least about 2 million Russian troops can be contained, which is almost more than one-third of Russia's military mobilization capacity, which is very considerable.

To tell the truth, the British and French practices and Germany's vague reminders have caused certain fluctuations in the northwest political arena, but it is still under the strong promotion of Yang Yuanzhao, pressed down, and joined the allies, absolutely not now, in no way to gain dominance, before there is not enough strength and discourse, after joining, it is not a suitable choice, you can only trade with the allies, and the left and right, this difference is big, with the scale of World War I, even if it is only 3 years, the strength of the northwest is the same as now, It's also completely different.

The German mention, who refused, only reminded the Northwest of some general movements of Britain and France, but did not insist any longer. After Germany was taken by Britain and France, things were already doomed, after the efforts of Britain and France, Britain, France, Japan, the United States, Germany and Italy, the Northwest War of joint intervention, but different from the previous intervention, it was mostly a loss of China's interests, because the Northwest was an absolute advantage, the conditions proposed by Nicholas II were directly vetoed by the German representatives, and were supported by Britain and France, Japan wanted to stir up the situation, but unfortunately now Japan's influence in the international community is the worst, even in East Asia, it cannot shake the four major powers of Britain, France, Germany and the United States, as for Italy, It was purely a soy sauce fight, and this intervention, from the very beginning, was aimed at a clear purpose, to stop the war in the Far East, and the two sides gained a certain buffer zone.

Under the introduction of the German Minister Mümer, the six countries directly met the Northwest Government, in which there were a large number of international students, and there were no special diplomatic personnel, but a group of Chinese Americans and their own students were trained, and they first trained in Germany, which is the most friendly to the Northwest.

These people are now about to undergo the first test, and in the face of the six countries' intervention in the northwest and the war against Russia, and in the face of the other side's extremely powerful diplomats who are familiar with diplomatic methods, they must ensure that the interests of the northwest are not harmed.

At the very beginning, the representatives of the six countries, especially Britain, France, and Japan, gave the young northwest diplomats a threat, coerced and enticed, and almost regarded the northwest as a defeated country.

At this time, the young Northwest diplomats were-for-tat, withstanding the oppression of these foreign diplomats, don't look at these young diplomats have little experience, but behind them, there is a powerful Northwest, directly against Russia's million army, annihilated more than 300,000, the Russian army fled in the desert, although Britain, France and Japan are strong, but thousands of miles away, the huge Chinese territory, is the best protection, plus 500,000 active troops, 10 times the militia and reserves, these are the confidence of the Northwest, the tone of the meeting, It was determined from the start.

Yang Yuanzhao, who is familiar with the international situation, as well as the future development, especially got the information from Germany, why did Britain and France take Germany, and even did not hesitate to make concessions, the relationship is close, don't joke, there are irreconcilable contradictions between the two systems, the land dispute between Germany and France, and the maritime dispute between Britain and Germany, which all need a complete fall before it can be solved, and the two sides do not fight because they want to continue to accumulate strength.

The retracted fist was to swing it out more violently and hit the enemy more ferociously, which was cleared by both Britain and France and Germany, and after obtaining certain benefits, Germany retreated, and also informed the northwest of the eagerness of Britain and France, which was not regarded as fulfilling its obligations, but also forming a good relationship between the two sides, and completely blocking Britain and France.

It is precisely with this as the bottom line, especially a clear future development trajectory, that Yang Yuanzhao clearly told the diplomats that not an inch of land will be lost, and a ceasefire area will be established based on the actual control line between China and Russia, but the buffer zone of all the ceasefire areas must be calculated from the actual control line of the Chinese side at present, which is tantamount to directly drawing the buffer zone of the fire-fighting on the territory of the so-called Russia, which has never been seen in the past.

Ignoring the black face of the Russian minister, let alone the ugly appearance of Britain, France and Japan, in short, either fight, or follow this, arrogant and unreasonable, there is no retreat at all, and there is no so-called diplomatic etiquette, but it is this kind of arrogance, this kind of strength, so that this time the six countries have no way to resist, can not start, in the northwest to grasp the hole cards, can cut off the Trans-Siberian Railway at any time, and even attack the premise of Siberian Forte, after a week of intense consultations, the cease-fire agreement was finally signed.

From this day on, the two sides were no longer in a state of war, with the Mongolian border as the core of the trading city as the dividing line, and the area of 150 kilometers to the north was designated as a ceasefire zone, and the two sides were not allowed to send troops into the area.

The Far East finally returned to calm, the two sides mobilized a million troops, in 1.5 million square kilometers of Mongolia, you came and went, lasted for a year, causing hundreds of thousands of casualties on both sides, finally ended, Russia under the order of Nicholas II, regardless of the defeat and victory, refused to pay reparations, the northwest did not force, land and personnel are the most important, the captured hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, do not have to be put back, directly become the northwest laborers, this Russia did not force, this point Russia did not force, As the most populous and territorial country in Europe, Russia's population of more than 100 million is not a joke, isn't it just hundreds of thousands, or the Far East's native buns, thrown to you.

This part of the captives became the first batch of foreign laborers in the northwest, which enriched the labor market in the northwest, and even the vast majority of them joined the future China and became one of the many ethnic groups in China in the future. (To be continued......)
