Chapter 441: Negotiation

Although Vladivostok has been successfully recovered, and the main force of the Russian army in the Far East has been completely annihilated, Ren Chao is not in a hurry to return to Beijing, anyway, the situation in the country is very stable now, and everything is carried out in an orderly manner, not to mention that now that communication is so developed, even if it is far away in Vladivostok, Ren Chao can also understand the situation in Beijing and even the whole country at the first time. This is Ren Chao's first time in Vladivostok, and he can just enjoy the scenery of the north, so Ren Chao stayed in Vladivostok temporarily. The original Russian Governor's Palace, after being cleaned up, became Ren Chao's Palace. For this Russian-style villa, which should be considered very luxurious at that time, Ren Chao was very satisfied.

"In the first battle of Vladivostok, our army captured more than 100,000 Russian troops. Combined with other battles and the recent capture of some Russian mobs who rebelled against the Celestial Empire, there are now more than 200,000 Russian prisoners in custody. With so many captives burdening our army, Wechen asked His Majesty how to deal with them. Wang Weihua, commander-in-chief of the Fifth Group Army, said respectfully.

"I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I can't think of any good way to do it for a while." Ren Chao said with a frown.

"Qi Xiang Xià, Wei Chen thought that according to the past practice, these captives could be escorted back to the mines in various parts of the country to serve as coolies." Wang Weihua said.

"It turns out that these Russians are all people who have nothing left over from what they eat, what they can't do, and they are the top ones in terms of drinking, let them work? Hum! They can always think of all sorts of ways to be lazy. And now there is an even more pressing matter. Ren Chao shook his head and said.

"I don't know what His Majesty is talking about?" Wang Weihua couldn't help but ask.

"At present, we are in contact with Tsarist Russia, and I have been hesitating whether to continue the fight or negotiate peace with the Russians on this issue." Ren Chao said with a frown.

"Weichen thinks that it is not impossible to negotiate peace with the Russians now, but with the personality of the Russians, they may not agree to our conditions." Wang Weihua said.

"Oh! What conditions are you talking about, and the Russians will not agree? Ren Chao couldn't help but ask.

"First of all, the first issue of national borders. Weichen thought that at the very least, the national border should be redrawn based on the line that the two sides actually control. This alone is unlikely to be agreed to by greedy Russians. Wang Weihua said honestly.

"With the actual control of the zhì line as the boundary, wouldn't it be too cheap for them. Weichen thought that the Siberian region could be bounded by the current actual control line, but the northwest and Central Asian regions were not able to do it, and Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and other places have been China's subject countries since ancient times, and these places should also be owned by China, but at present, our Fourth Army only occupies part of eastern Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, which is far from enough. Hao Guanqun, commander-in-chief of the Second Group Army, said loudly.

What Hao Qing said is reasonable. It's just that even if the current actual control line is used as the boundary, let alone if Russia wants to spit out the occupied Central Asian region, the Russians will categorically not agree. Ren Chao shook his head and said.

"It's up to them! If they refuse, then we will beat them until they are willing. Hao Guanqun said confidently.

"I intend to order the First Army and the Third Army to continue their offensive westward, to capture Novosibirsk, and then move south to join the Fourth Army and capture Central Asia. As for the Northeast Front, the fighting is now basically over. I intend to draw the strength of an army group to support the Western Front. Ren Chao said with a stern face.

"We're willing to go!" Wang Weihua and Hao Guanqun said in unison.

"Okay, you two don't have to fight, let's take a trip with Hao Qing leading the Second Army!" Ren Chao said after thinking about it.

"Weichen Command!" Hao Guanqun replied excitedly.

Ren Chao saw Wang Weihua's disappointed face, shook his head with a smile and said. "Wang Qing, you don't have to be disappointed, the task of staying here will be even more arduous. Although these places have been the territory of China since ancient times, they have been occupied by Tsarist Russia for so long, and they have been working hard here for so long. It will not be easy for us to completely occupy this area, so the task on you is very difficult. I hope you will be able to accomplish this task successfully. ”

"Please rest assured, Weichen will do his best to live up to His Majesty's trust." Wang Weihua assured loudly.

"Then I can rest assured!" Ren Chao nodded with satisfaction. "As for those Russian prisoners of war, I think about it again, even if those dishonest ones are dealt with, no matter how many of these Russians die, it is not a pity."

"Weichen Command!" Wang Weihua replied respectfully.

In a conference room of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire in Beijing, Liang Yan, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire, sat in a precarious position and said with a stern face, "Our Chinese Empire has always been a peace-loving country, and our Chinese nation has always been a peace-loving nation. Therefore, we welcome your country's proposal for peace, and on behalf of our Chinese Empire, we are also sitting here to negotiate with your country with absolute sincerity. ”

Russian representative Sergei couldn't help but curse in his heart, obviously you provoked the war, and now you are licking your face and saying that you love peace, is there anything more shameless than this? But this Mr. Sergei has obviously forgotten that if it were not for the repeated invasion and occupation of our Chinese territory by Tsarist Russia, how could this war have happened?

Although Sergei was extremely unhappy in his heart, he still tried his best to pretend to be a smile, "Hehe~!" We can see the sincerity of your country, so I hope that we and I can reach an agreement in a good-neighborly and friendly manner, so that the two sides will stop fighting and make peace, and we will always be friendly countries. ”

Liang Yan smiled and said, "The friendship between our two countries has a long history, and we have reason to believe that this negotiation will be able to reach a clause that will satisfy both you and us in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere." As hosts, the best champagne has been prepared, and when we have finished negotiating, we can celebrate together. ”

"Champagne? No, I prefer vodka! Sergei shook his head with a smile and said, "However, as for Mr. Liang's words, the contemptible people raised their hands in favor of it, and the contemptible people also believe that this negotiation will be resolved very smoothly." However, I hope that when we negotiate again, your country's army will be able to stop the offensive and negotiate a truce and peace with the actual control line between the two sides now. ”

"I can only apologize for this, if the armistice treaty is not signed for a day, you and we will always be in a state of war, since it is a state of war, then the army of our Chinese Empire will not stop attacking. Of course, if the treaty is signed, then your two countries will be good-neighborly and friendly countries, and we Chinese people have always been very enthusiastic about our friends, and we will not take the initiative to attack our friends. Liang Yan said with an apologetic smile. (To be continued......)
