405 Vladivostok

Since last year's October Revolution, the political situation in Russia has been in turmoil. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

The Bolsheviks in Russia were forced to sign the Treaty of Bunister in order to stop fighting with the Germans, which caused an uproar in Russia.

The desire for territory is deep-rooted, but at the same time the Russians are visionary and greedy.

The Russians do not miss any opportunity to gain territory, and at the same time they do not miss any opportunity to get money, even if it is to exchange the territory acquired by their Russian ancestors for money.

Selling Alaska may seem like a brainless move in the 21st century, but at the time, it was a stroke of genius.

The signing of the Treaty of Bunister deprived Russia of millions of square kilometers of territory, and at the same time, the Russian Bolsheviks had to pay 6 billion marks, and all Russian soldiers had to be demobilized.

Although this treaty enabled Russia to successfully withdraw from the world war, it aroused strong dissatisfaction among all patriots in Russia, who opposed the Bolsheviks, and even established a provisional government headed by Admiral Kolchak in an attempt to compete with the Bolsheviks for domestic power.

Lenin knew that the Treaty of Bunister hurt the feelings of the Russians, and although the Russians signed the Peace of Bunister, the Russians were never prepared to carry it out.

After the signing of the Treaty of Bunister, Trotsky, who was in charge of the negotiations, was forced to resign, and Lenin punished the "traitors" who signed the "traitorous treaty" and concentrated all the power of the Bolshevik government in his own hands.

It is necessary to note that Trotsky was the direct leader of the October Revolution and the founder of the Russian Bolshevik army.

Truth be told, if it turns in prestige, before Trotsky signed the Treaty of Buniester, Trotsky and Lenin were on a par with the Russian Bolsheviks.

Just last winter, when Germany signed the Armistice Agreement, the Russian Bolsheviks declared the Treaty of Bniester null and void, and all its contents were null and void.

This is the real international relations, not to mention what "agreement" or "contract spirit", when it comes to the level of national interests, all treaties are all waste paper, when it is needed, it exists, if it is not needed, then it has never appeared.

Although Lenin's methods were clever enough and his reaction was quick enough, the impact of the Treaty of Bunister was already brewing, and it could not be eliminated by a simple "declaration of annulment".

At this time, Russia is already turbulent in the country, the red and white sides are sharpening their knives, and the forces of all parties are ready to move.

Reflected in Paris, the situation is the same.

Lenin tried to convince the leaders of the Entente that the Russians and the Germans had to sign a treaty of last resort, and that if possible, the Russians would never withdraw from the war, and that even if they did, the Russians had contributed to the world war, and that this should not be ignored.

Kolchak was also lobbying the Entente powers, especially France, and Kolchak promised that if France was willing to help, the Russians would remain loyal allies of the French, and Russia would be aligned with France in international affairs.

The French had the intention of helping Kolchak, but France could not do anything at the moment, because the world war had caused too much damage to France, and France could not afford to start another war right away.

The same was true of the British, who also supported Kolchak, but the British could not send troops either.

The situation of the Americans is more peculiar, and the Americans are equally reluctant to send troops, because it does not seem to be to the point where the victory or defeat is now decided, and the Americans want to sell things at this stage.

Belch...... Unfortunately, Wilson's calculation was wrong, the Russian Bolsheviks really wanted to buy things, but the Bolsheviks had no money. And Kolchak has money, but Kolchak does not need to sell and buy things.

Everything Kolchak needed was supplied by the British and French.

Kolchak's army consisted of Russians and Czechs, of which the Russians were members of the army of the former Imperial Russia, and the Czechs were formed in the First World War in order to be independent, and the troops of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, when the world war ended, Siberia was in chaos, and the Czechs could not return to their homeland, so they could only declare that they would join Kolchak.

These armies, in fact, were the continuation of the Russian army during the imperial Russian period, strictly speaking, their combat effectiveness was not high, although because of the British and French aid weapons were updated, but the combat methods and operational concepts were no different from before.

Therefore, when they faced the nascent Bolshevik army, they did not have much advantage.

It is for this reason that Kolchak has not launched an offensive against Moscow since Kolchak seized all the power of the Siberian Provisional Government in a coup d'Γ©tat on November 18 last year.

Kolchak was well aware that with these forces at his command, he would not necessarily succeed in taking Moscow and eliminating the Bolshevik regime.

Kolchak needed help.

And when Kolchak looked around Europe, Kolchak did not find the reinforcements he hoped for, so he could only expand his horizons all the way to the Mediterranean.

Uh-huh, Corsica is right in the Mediterranean.

At the end of February, a Russian from distant Omsk visited Qin Zhiyuan through Old Renault.

Qin Zhiyuan knew who he was, and he met this Kolchak messenger at the Black Swan Castle.

"Oh, damn it's so hot."

As soon as he saw Qin Zhiyuan, this middle-aged Humpty Dumpty man named Ivanovich couldn't help but complain.

In fact, Paris in February is really not how hot it is, but if you compare it with distant Siberia, Paris is really warm as spring.

The fireplace in the living room of the Black Swan Castle was burning, Qin Zhiyuan was wearing only a shirt, sitting in front of the fireplace and reading the day's "Daily News".

"Ivan, welcome." Qin Zhiyuan put down the newspaper and came over to say hello with a pleasant face.

"Hello, hello, Qin, it's a pleasure to meet you." Ivanovic responded enthusiastically.

"It seems that the weather in Paris is not too kind to you." Qin Zhiyuan quipped.

Wearing a thick fur coat and a tall, thick mink hat on his head, his nose was red from the cold air, but still unscrupulously exposed directly to the air, it is estimated that Ivanovich thought that the unkempt mustache on his face provided enough to keep out the cold.

"It's not just the weather, everything here is unfriendly...... Ivanovich has a Russian candor, or rather, a Russian recklessness: "You know, I've been in Paris for more than two months, and nothing has progressed. Maybe you think it's ridiculous, but in my opinion it's worth it. ”

What Ivanovic said was a bit clueless, but fortunately, Qin Zhiyuan could understand what Ivanovich meant.

Of course, Qin Zhiyuan could understand, in fact, if Qin Zhiyuan hadn't asked the old Renault to get close to Ivanovic, the old Renault wouldn't have looked at Ivanovic.

In the eyes of the old Renault, who has always regarded himself as a "nobleman", the raunchy and scruffly dressed Ivanovic is like a bear from the Arctic Circle. For the old Renault, Ivanovic has no use value, and at the same time, the old Renault can't provide what Ivanovic wants, so if it weren't for Qin Zhiyuan, Ivanovich and the old Renault would not have known each other at all.

"I can understand it...... No matter who you are, as long as you have faith, then you will have nothing to fear. Qin Zhiyuan also replied without a clue.

It is terrible for someone who arms himself with faith, like the PLA......

"Yes Qin, I absolutely agree with you, so you have to understand the desire of a 'patriot', if you can lend a helping hand in this special period, then you will gain the friendship of 100 million people." Ivanovic began to lay the bait.

"I can understand the desires of a 'patriot', but at the same time, Ivan, do you know what I, a patriot, are thinking?" Qin Zhiyuan is the master of baiting, and it is impossible to be kidnapped by this entry-level trick.

"'Patriot'? Qin, what do you want? "Branislav doesn't feel like things are going to go well.

Beginning in 1858, the Tsar forced the Qing Emperor to sign the Treaty of Aihui, which caused the Qing Empire to lose 1.5 million square kilometers of territory, and later ceded nearly 300,000 square kilometers of territory of the Qing Empire through the Sino-Russian Treaty of Beijing, the Sino-Russian Treaty of Survey and Demarcation of the Northwest Boundary, the Uriya-Sutai Boundary Treaty, and the Kobdo Boundary Treaty. What do you ask me for? I want these treaties to be abrogated in their entirety, and at the same time these territories to be returned to the Republic of China...... No, return Lan Fang, we now also represent the Qing Empire. Qin Zhiyuan opened his mouth.

In Qin Zhiyuan's view, this is a legitimate request, and there is no excesse.

But in Ivanovic's mind, 1 this is the standard lion's big mouth.

"The Treaty of Aihui...... God, now that the two parties to those treaties have perished, do we have to go back to the history books? Ivanovic insisted.

"If you need me to send troops, that's my only condition, oh, that's right, because Tangnu Ulianghai is too far away from Lanfang, so I ask that Tangnu Ulianghai be replaced with Kamchatka, so it will be much better." Qin Zhiyuan thought about it.

"What a fart, it's absolutely impossible for any Russian to agree." Ivanovich burst into a rage.

"Come on, not long ago, you just signed the Brest Peace with the Germans, so don't say that Russia is so strong, you are not as good as your leaflets say." Qin Zhiyuan disdainfully revealed the old bottom.

Of course, all national political parties glorify themselves, without exception. Especially in Russia at this time, the Provisional Government was seen as "traitors" by the Bolsheviks, and the Bolsheviks were "insurgents" in the eyes of the Provisional Government, both of whom wanted to put each other to death.

"The Brest Peace Treaty was not signed by us, it is not popular, and even in Russia there are many people who oppose it." Ivanovic tried his best to defend himself, but it could be seen that he did not have the momentum of the thunderous explosion just now.

"Look at this, and you'll see that the Peace of Brest wasn't the only one." Qin Zhiyuan handed the "Daily News" in his hand to Ivanovic.

"What is this?" Ivanovic looked over and over again, his face gradually turned red, and it was obvious that Ivanovic did not understand Chinese.

"I'm sorry, I'll translate it." Qin Zhiyuan apologized, and then began translating in French.

This is the "Declaration of the Government of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic to the Chinese and the North and South Governments of the Republic of China...... Immediately after the Soviet Government had returned to the Chinese the people all that the Tsarist Government had plundered from the Chinese people or plundered jointly with the Japanese and the Entente, it recommended to the Chinese Government that the Chinese Government should negotiate the abrogation of the Treaty of 1896, the Peking Agreement of 1901 and all the agreements signed with Japan from 1907 to 1916......"

Qin Zhiyuan's voice was not high, but the content was absolutely shocking.

What does that mean? This is limited to after 1896 and does not include the Treaty of Aihui, signed in 1858. Ivanovich and other big eyes argued.

"That's now, if in a little while, when the Bolsheviks also need help, do you think it will be included?" Qin Zhiyuan had bad intentions.

Ha, compared to Kolchak, who is still a qualified soldier, some people in Russia are like liars with no bottom line, they can sell their national interests at will to achieve the desired goals, and if they have the opportunity, they will overturn all the "Covenants" that have been signed.

For this country, even their punctuation cannot be trusted.
