"Mole" Zhou Degui's note is not big, but it is covered with densely pressed fly-headed small letters.

"The suppression of the Northwest Hui Army was not because of inaccurate intelligence, nor did the 'communist bandits' have this intention, but because Ren Wu booby-trapped Zhang Suimou in Guyuan, the 'communist bandits' were red-eyed. In view of the stubborn resistance of the Hui Army in the northwest, this afternoon, the Northern Camp has issued an urgent order ordering the troops of the Red First Army occupying Pujin Pass to negotiate with the Qing army in front of them to resolve the armed conflict there, and must not disrupt the overall situation of the peace talks, so as to concentrate all forces in the northwest and turn to fight against the Hui army."

"It seems that they really want peace......" Colonel Maryanov shook his head and muttered as he heard this.

"Phew!" Pleushenko pursed his lips and motioned for the interpreter to hurry up and read the following message.

"Chen Yucheng, who had been absent from the negotiations since the day before yesterday, did suffer from a rash because of the unsuitable climate in the north, so he left Jinan and went to Xuzhou to recuperate, and at the same time participated in a policy training course for local officials held by the 'communist bandits' in Xuzhou. In addition, the more than 1,000 iron nozzles that arrived in Jinan from Tianjing some time ago were carefully verified to be not combat weapons, but were specially fired at fireworks. The 'communist bandits' are organizing soldiers in the southern suburbs to step up drills and prepare for a grand celebration once the peace talks are successful. ”

"Finished?" Pryushenko looked at the interpreter.

The interpreter placed the note on the table, spread his hands, and shrugged his shoulders again.

"Want to celebrate the success of the peace talks?" Priushenko tightened his brows, what the hell is it, what year was the success of the peace talks?

"Hehe, it would be nice if there was a day." Maryanov lit a "Great China" brand cigarette, spewed wisps of smoke from the corner of his mouth, and joked, "China's fireworks are indeed the first in the world, and it must be exciting to see that kind of grand scene of thousands of flowers blooming." It's just a pity, what day will this kind of scene wait? ”

"Damn, they have money to play with fireworks, and they haven't played enough for thousands of years, but there are more and more tricks. It's a pity that we are poor, and the poor can't even afford to produce weapons for the soldiers, otherwise ......" Pryushenko shook his head and let out a long sigh.

Putiyatin sighed as he was also on a makeshift in Texas.

He felt like a super firefighter now, and he had to run wherever there was a fire that couldn't be extinguished. The palace coup d'état in the Forbidden City, which was not small or small for him, has become history, and Yi Xin, the rightful king of parliament, has gradually stabilized the chaotic situation inside and outside the palace under the maintenance of Duanhua and others. The common people don't mention it, at least among the people who eat the Qing Dynasty Yulu, it seems that there is a good atmosphere of unity of thought and vigor in one place.

Prince Hui Mianyu, who was originally deeply trusted by Cixi and was still a little applauded by this civil strife, also changed his attitude after he personally accompanied Yi Xin to Zhending. Under his repeated persuasion of interests, and in accordance with his opinions, Mianyu dispatched 30,000 elite soldiers from Jianrui, Firearms, Forward, and Protector Battalions in his charge to aid the Western Army, and quickly set off to Shanxi to deal with the Pujin Pass crisis and prevent the Taiping Red Army from entering Shanxi from the east of Shaanxi.

After all this qiē was done, the biggest thing in front of him was the protracted peace talks that were taking place in Jinan. Isn't it just to get the desired peace by overthrowing Cixi like a righteous annihilation? If the peace talks failed, he really responded to what Cixi told him at that time, so how would he face his "sweetheart" in the future? Especially now, in order to give the country the necessary respite, the Tsar had to urgently warn "to use a single means to maintain a period of peace in the East for at least five to ten years, and to buy precious time for the forthcoming large-scale reform of serfdom and economic revival in the country."

But now, from the news sent back from Jinan, Putiatin learned that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government had rejected his Tsar's "peaceful and good deeds". Even he, a politician who is not a military strategist, feels that the government of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is really a little unaware of the height of the sky. What were we Tsarist Russia? We once defeated the invincible Napoleon, we used to be the number one hegemon in Europe, we fart, the whole of Europe can't ignore it, what are you a rebel Taiping Heavenly Kingdom? It's just a thief, if it weren't for that bullshit bastard, where would you have the place to talk in this world?

But this anger is angry, scolding is scolding, and the reality must always be faced.

Putiyatin pondered for a long time, and finally came up with a brilliant plan. Haha, isn't your Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government just trying to put gold on your face? Okay, then I'll give you a big piece of gold leaf to put on. He quickly picked up a dipping pen and began to write without thinking:

Your Excellency General Pryushenko:

…… In order to express our Tsarist Russia's expectation and sincerity for peace in China, we can completely renounce the Treaty of Aihui and return all the benefits obtained from the Qing Dynasty to the Qing government.

In order to fully express our friendship with our friends in the East, the general must also make it clear to the other side that once the peace talks are successful, our tsarist government will immediately establish diplomatic relations with the government of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom on an equal footing with the Qing government, put aside past suspicions, and actively promote and develop friendly relations between the two countries, with a view to the three sides working together to take the road of strengthening the country and making the people prosperous, and to strive for world peace and common prosperity......

In the letter, he also warned Pryushenko that he must put down the shelf of the heroes of the great powers of the past, must maintain the noble image of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government, speak more kind, tactful, and flattering words, and learn to be a wronged schoolboy......

Finally, he told Pryushenko that the final bottom line on the demarcation of the border between the Qing Dynasty and China would be agreed upon separately and appropriately depending on the negotiation process.

It's going to be pretty much the same now, right? Putiyatin put down his pen and looked at the long letter in front of him, and his eyes flashed with a subtle mystery.

Jae-won sat alone in the room, his eyes were a little sluggish in addition to exhaustion, he had just returned from the Russian observer mission station.

The negotiations are getting more and more difficult, but Yi Xin in the capital seems to have forgotten this place, and no new instructions for feasibility have been handed down. As for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, now it is similar to iron mouth and steel teeth, and it has changed the style that used to be at odds with you, as soon as you continue to raise objections to the terms they have made, they will start to look like mud, and everyone will stare at you deadly, whatever you say, but they will not say a word as if they have not heard it. When you are tired and boring, they will always find something to use as a weapon, accusing you of having no sincerity in the negotiation and deliberately trying to sabotage the negotiation. This was the same at the very beginning of this morning's meeting.

Instead of directly approaching the Russian observer group near the negotiation site, the representative of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom severely criticized the ugly act of the Russian army that had recently occurred in the Jiyang area for wantonly attacking and detaining civilian grain merchants on the south bank, saying that this was a malicious sabotage of the ongoing peace talks and a blasphemy of the good intentions of the Celestial Government in longing for peace, and strongly demanded the immediate and unconditional release of the detained people and the severe punishment of the perpetrators. As in the past, they once again warned the Qing delegation that they were solely responsible for the consequences of the unfavorable peace talks that might be triggered by this.

Zaiyuan is helpless, people are poor and short-sighted, so they have to listen to what others say, and start the topic endlessly. After finishing in the morning, after a short lunch at noon, he came again, and at the end of the whole day, he and his members were disgraced and embarrassed.

The long day finally came to an end, and as soon as the meeting was over, Zaigaki ran to the Russian allies who were still preparing a hearty dinner in a rage. This time, Zaeyuan didn't save any face for his allies, and he almost jumped on his feet to count Pryushenko from top to bottom.

What the hell, you guys, the natural disasters of the people along the river on the north bank plus your **, they are already poor and difficult to survive, and you don't know how scarce food is. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom proceeded from humanitarianism to squeeze food out of their mouths to help the people on the north coast, which was already an unimaginable great act of kindness, not to mention, didn't you also get food supplements from it? Change positions, you also keep shouting for common prosperity, but you will be so kind to your enemies?

As soon as you say that you are full and scold the cook, you are still not happy, and it is okay to rob the food, what are you doing to detain people? How? Could someone be a spy? Ha ha...... Everyone is a spy, and you are *** a good person. Do you think that if you take advantage of the opportunity of private trade between the people on both sides of the strait every day to send spies to the south coast, people will definitely take medicine according to the prescription? Bah, I didn't hear that the spies would bring food to support you. Looking at you who look like dogs, don't you even know the most basic etiquette?

Zaiyuan became more and more angry, and in the end, he pointed at Pryushenko's nose and shouted, "Tomorrow, if you don't immediately notify your side to release the people and the seized ships on the south bank, and publicly apologize to the Taiping delegation, Lao Tzu will go back to his mother's capital as soon as he slips away, and wants to talk to you." ”

To say that Zaiyuan's courage this time is fat enough, he dares to play with his beard in front of the tiger, this is the first time since the opening of the Qing Dynasty that he has just shouted in front of the foreign adults who are armed to the teeth, shouting and scolding his mother.

In fact, this was not a reckless impulse triggered by Zaigaki's momentary anger, and if it weren't for the incident that happened last night, he would never have dared to do so.
