Located in the center of Vladivostok, the Pacific Hotel is a one-storey building, with brown and red buildings in Chinese architectural style, red cinnamon and green tiles, painted cornices, and cascading arches. It is full of oriental classical charm, and this hotel is also the only large-scale building newly built in Vladivostok in the past two years.

The hotel is the property of the Pacific Trading Company, which is controlled by the Wehrmacht's Military Intelligence Directorate, and of course is a secret stronghold of the Military Intelligence Directorate in Vladivostok. In addition to the wealthy merchants who came and went to Vladivostok to and from the city, there were representatives of envoys from various countries, dignitaries and dignitaries in Vladivostok, and high-ranking generals of the Wehrmacht who came to Vladivostok on business.

On the first floor of the hotel, the 800-square-meter Spring-Floored Cinnacle Ballroom is a place frequented by the nobles and dignitaries of the Vladivostok dynasty, and it is said that even Empress Anastasia once came here to dance after a disguise.

And on this night, when the offensive and defensive battle of Amursk was at its most intense, the Russian Empress Anastasia I openly held a grand banquet here to entertain Marshal Luo Yaoguo, chief of the General Staff of the Chinese National Defense Forces, who was visiting again. After the banquet, Luo Yaoguo and the Russian empress, surrounded by all the guests, walked into the ballroom next to the restaurant to participate in a court ball prepared for him by Her Majesty the Empress.

Accompanied by a beautiful waltz, a couple of male and female guests danced on the dance floor.

Luo Yaoguo and Empress Anastasia sat in a corner of the ballroom, guarded by several elite officers in Wehrmacht uniforms, sipping Hinkel champagne from Germany.

The Empress gracefully lifted the goblet and sipped it gently. wine, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Marshal, do you want to see me sooner when you return to Vladivostok so soon?" As she spoke, she looked around, but didn't see Natalie's shadow, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "What about Natalie?" Have you left this one beauty in China? ”

Luo Yaoguo shook his head with a smile and said, "She went to Germany to purchase some important machinery and equipment. ”

The Empress sighed in disappointment, glanced at him again, and said, "Then what business are you doing in Vladivostok?" ”

Luo Yaoguo smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass, and said, "I'm here to bring you champagne." He smiled again: "In addition, I have come to arrange a trip to Europe for you, just yesterday, Germany has forcibly taken back the Rhineland demilitarized zone and announced that it will rearm, and France has not reacted at all!" In this case, I think you should go to Europe once and meet President Hitler. He is the key to your restoration of the dynasty, and you need to win his support. ”

Anastasia frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment: "But Hitler did not send me a formal invitation, and Germany did not recognize the Imperial Government of Vladivostok. ”

"It's not a formal invitation, it's not a public visit, it's a secret visit." Luo Yaoguo paused, and then said in a low voice: "Anastasia, I want you to disappear in Vladivostok for ten days in the name of inspecting the Amursk front, and I will accompany you to Germany to meet Hitler, as long as you have his support, you can return to St. Petersburg in four years." ”

"Four years! It's that fast! Luo Yaoguo nodded: "That's right, it's so fast, if everything goes well, the war will be launched in the spring of the 1st year, Germany, Bolan and us will do it together!" East and West are caught in the Soviet Union, and Stalin is dead this time! ”

Anastasia glanced at Luo Yaoguo, who was full of confidence, and said lightly: "And then?" Will you really restore the Romanov dynasty? Isn't it going to divide up Russia? ”

Luo Yaoguo was stunned for a moment, and it seemed that the empress who looked a little sad next to him barely squeezed out a smile: "Your Majesty, this requires you to win the support of President Hitler, and it is the German Empire that can really decide the future and fate of Russia." Anastasia also smiled: "That's right, Germany is the key, I listen to your arrangement, when do you say you will leave?" ”

"I'll be there next week." Luo Yaoguo thought for a while, and then said: "Arrange for your plane to fly to Nikolaevsk, and say that you go there to inspect military affairs, and you and I secretly go to Berlin, Germany on a Wehrmacht plane." ”

July 15, 9333. Berlin, Germany.

A long train roared slowly into Berlin's central railway station in a steaming white steam with a whistle. Natalie Lesinskaya grabbed Luo Yaoguo's arm tightly and jumped around. Ribbentrop, who had brought them here to pick up the train from Warsaw, smiled.

Luo Yaoguo noticed that he was laughing, so he pointed at Natalie, and shouted loudly in the noise of the train, "She hasn't seen her father for a year."

"Really? Then he must have come to Berlin for the Roves. ”

"Well, it must be like this, my father loves me the most." Natalie smiled and nodded, smiling happily.

The train stopped and people got off.

"Oh, look!" Natalie shouted, "He's the one who stepped off the pedal, but why would Wu Tuo Haolou be by his side?" How did the two of them come to Berlin together? ”

"Where? Where? Luo Yaoguo frowned slightly, and said in his heart: "This Wu Tuohao is too good at sycophancy!" A dignified lieutenant general and head of the military representative group of the Chinese country in Bolan actually ignored the business and accompanied Natalie's father to Berlin to meet his daughter! If I hadn't happened to be in Germany for a secret visit, I would have missed this wonderful scene..............."

"It's gone. It's over there. Uh, they all seem weird? ”

Leshinsky was a little unkempt, his hair was not dyed, a little white, and unkempt, and he was wearing a suit casually, as if he was a little worried. Wu Tuohao, who was next to him, was like an ant on a hot pot, constantly wiping the sweat on his forehead with his hands and nose. When he saw Natalie and Luo Yaoguo, he hurriedly grabbed Leshinsky beside him with his hand, and the two of them walked over together.

"The assistant commander is the assistant commander!" Luo Yaoguo heard Wu Tuohao shout: "I didn't expect you to have arrived in Berlin, that's great, that's great!" Luo Yaoguo took Natalie's hand and walked towards Leshinsky and Wu Tuohao. Leshinsky let out a puff of wine, and he hugged his daughter tightly and pierced Natalie's face with a beard that he hadn't shaved for two days, and he was puzzled: "This is not the place to talk, let's go to the hotel first." Natalie, you're so beautiful today, you're almost catching up with your mother, she's such a beauty. ”

"What's wrong with Bolan?" Luo Yaoguo knew what was going on and hurriedly asked Wu Tuohao in Chinese.

Wu Tuohao was stunned, hurriedly walked two steps, leaned into Luo Yaoguo's ear, and said in a low voice: "The People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union, Checherin, secretly arrived in Warsaw on the evening of July 12 and had a secret conversation with Pilsudski at the Belvedere Palace for one night!" It was only the day before yesterday that Mr. Leshinsky's friend brought him reliable news. Stalin wanted to use the three countries of Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia to win over Bolan, and as long as Bolan agreed to form an alliance with the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union would support Bolan's annexation of these three countries! Now Pilsudski was hesitating, but most likely agreed to Stalin's proposal. ”

"Damn! This Pilsudski is an old fool, right? How could such a deal be made with Stalin? Luo Yaoguo's face sank suddenly, thinking that this Stalin was really not a fuel-efficient lamp! His painstaking layout for so many years was almost cracked by him! Once Bolan swallowed the three Bo countries, the road of Germany's eastward expansion would be completely blocked by Bo Lan, and history might return to its original track. The Soviet Union and Germany colluded to carve up Bolan, and then Germany attacked the west to fight Britain and France,........., so that the Soviet Union could get a respite! Although China has risen in this time and space, it is really not very certain that it will deal with Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and even Japan together with Germany at the same time.

"Ah, I see that Marshal Pilsudski's calculations are shrewd, and he is not confused at all, he can get the three countries of the Boluo Sea for nothing, and then he can rely on the Soviet Union to resist Germany, so if he doesn't agree to cheap things, he will be an old fool!" Natalie also knew what was going on from her father, stomped her feet, and said with a wry smile: "After all, we Bolan people are still afraid of the Russians!" ”

"Is something wrong with Bolan?" Ribbentrop on the side also seemed to see something wrong, and cautiously probed in German.

Luo Yaoguo sighed: "Let's talk about it when we get in the car, you can also give me an idea to see if I can bring Bo Lan back?" ”

The car drove to the Ribbentrop Villa on the outskirts of Berlin, where Natalie and her father, Leschinsky, were in the same car. Luo Yaoguo sat in another Mercedes-Benz limousine with Ribbentrop and Wu Tuohao. In the car, Wu Tuohao repeated the news of Molotov and Chicherin's arrival in Warsaw from beginning to end.

"Stalin picked a good time." Ribbentrop sighed: "Now Germany has not rearmed, it is the weakest time to betray Bolan at this time, we have no way at all, and the Soviet Union is now weakened by the war in the Far East, so Pilsudski will feel that he has a chance to digest the three countries of Boluo, and the Soviet Union, which is contained by the [China" country after being weakened, should not move Bolan, and I am afraid that it will be many years before the victory or defeat between China and the Soviet Union is decided!" Saying that, he smiled bitterly at Luo Yaoguo: "Your Excellency Marshal, this time you have finally learned what European politics is, right?" Enemies and friends will change at any time, just see if there are common interests! "So what should we do?" Wu Tuohao interjected: "Is there any way to make Pilsudski change his mind?" ”

Ribbentrop laughed: "A change of heart? This word in European diplomacy means to buy Bolan with more interests! What can be bought? Stalin gave three countries in one go! Germany has nothing to offer. It seems that in the end, it can only be to unite with the Soviet Union to carve up Bolan, as in history"... (By history, he was referring to the three partitions of Prussia, Russia, and Austria.) ）

"There will always be a force method, let's think about it again." Wu Tuohao said.

"Well, maybe, after I go back, I will discuss it with Hitler, and he should have a way." "Of course. There will definitely be a way! Luo Yaoguo said.

He said this, but he didn't have much confidence in his heart. If Germany is already a powerful country now, maybe things will be easier to do, Bolan is afraid of Germany's power and does not dare to easily betray the alliance, but at the moment Germany really does not have much strength. And this time the price given by Stalin is high enough! Although Pilsudski knew the consequences of doing so, he was afraid that it would be difficult to refuse such a big youhuo.

Luo Yaoguo met Hitler again in the living room of the Prime Minister's Office in Berlin, in July 1933

At noon on the 15th, he was accompanied by the Russian Empress Anastasia, the Chinese ambassador Zeng Qi, the German Minister of the Interior and Aviation, Goering, and Ribbentrop, who had secretly visited.

After some pleasantries, Ribbentrop elaborated on the news from Bolan and Luo Yaoguo's desire to preserve the Triple Alliance. Hitler and Goering glanced at each other, Hitler was very indifferent, Goering shrugged his shoulders, waved his fat hand, shook his head, as if to say: "These Borans are really unreliable, and they must not be trusted!" ”

Hitler pondered silently for a while, his deep sunken gray-blue eyes looked straight at Luo Yaoguo, and he smiled bitterly: "Marshal Luo, it seems that you have an unusual attachment to the Sino-German Triple Alliance, which is very rare in the countries of the world today: but what method do we use to redeem Bo Lan?"

Stalin gave three countries that did not belong to him in one go, which we cannot compare, and there is no need to compare bids with him. I think Pilsudski was a smart man, and he knew that after taking these three countries, Bolan would be under the attack of Germany and the Soviet Union! With Bolan's strength, it is only possible to survive by forming an alliance with one of the two countries, the Soviet Union and Germany. And after Bolan occupied the road of Germany's eastward advance, Bo and Germany naturally had no way to form an alliance, and the only thing left was the Bo-Soviet alliance, but Pilsudski and Bolan did not dare to form an alliance with a powerful Soviet Union! In that case, sooner or later Bolan will become vassals of the Soviet Union, and they, the Bolan upper class, will also become dead under the butcher's knife of the Bolsheviks! Therefore, a weakened Soviet Union is the best alliance with Bolan. And the best way to stop the Soviet alliance is to make the Soviet Union look stronger, and the main forces of the Soviet Union are now contained in the Far East, so Pilsudski has the idea of forming an alliance with them. But it's just an idea, and it's too early for these two countries to really come together! ”

Luo Yaogu was silent for a while, and then he and Empress Anatasya exchanged glances, and the Empress said: "What does Mr. General mean is that if we withdraw our troops to Vladivostok and Nikolaevsk, creating the illusion that the Soviet Red Army is victorious on the battlefield, Bolan will therefore give up or postpone the plan to form an alliance with the Soviet Union?" ”

Hitler thought for a moment, shrugged his shoulders impatiently, and said: "I will personally go to Warsaw to convince Pilsudski that his dislike of the Bolsheviks is not below you and me, otherwise he would have agreed to the conditions of the Soviet Union a long time ago." If in a few years, when Germany is armed, Bolan will not waver any longer, because that would mean destruction! When he said this, the god moved a little and waved his arms vigorously, looking like a demon who was ready to destroy the world!

Luo Yaoguo shook his head silently, looked at his evil eyes, and sighed in a low voice: "Your Excellency, thank you for everything you have done to consolidate the Triple Alliance, so can we discuss how to help Her Majesty the Empress?" I think you know her important xing ...... in the cause of the opposition to the Bolsheviks"

Of course, Hitler did not understand that in history he had never thought of using any deceptive means to fool the Russian people, and that what he did in Eastern Europe was even more brutal than that of Britain and France against the colonial countries. However, for the sake of the face of China, which can mobilize tens of millions of troops, he also had to be perfunctory.

He smiled, "Of course I know how important Her Majesty is to our cause, not to mention that Her Majesty has almost all Aryan blood in his veins. In fact, the Romanov dynasty was ruled by the Aryan race, and that odious world war destroyed two dynasties belonging to the Aryan race! ”

Empress Anastasia nodded frequently, as if she agreed with Hitler's words, and she smiled and said: "Mr. General Manager is right, I don't actually have any Russian blood in my veins, in fact, the official name of the Romanov dynasty is the Romanov-Holstein-Gotop dynasty, which belongs to the German Oldenburg family, and since Peter III and Catherine II, our family has been intermarried with the German royal family or the Grand Duke's family, and almost all queens are German princesses.

My paternal ancestors, from Peter III, have been in the Holstein Gotop bloodline. So by blood, I am of the Aryan race, and I have the same ancestors as Mr. President. ”

After listening to Empress Anastasia's self-report, Luo Yaoguo also felt that this woman did not look like the legendary Soviet aunt! Of course, he also knew that Hitler would not temporarily keep the Russian Empire because of Anastasia's bloodline. But that would be better, if Hitler didn't want this signboard, he could use it himself, maybe he could use Anastasia's signboard to build a grand duchy on the territory bordering the German-ruled zone as a buffer, and at the same time avoid directly ruling the Russians.

After the meeting with Hitler, Luo Yaoguo returned to Ribbentrop's villa to rest, while Anastasia stayed in the estate of her uncle, the Duke of Hesse and the Rhineland, in the suburbs of Berlin.
