"Sir Sir, it seems that there is trouble. Neither the northern government nor our allies will back down! I'm afraid this battle will continue. Minister Pasteur said.

After leaving the Northeast to tour the embassy, the two of them got into a carriage.

"The government in the north has the unwavering support of the Germans and the Americans, and this is the trickiest." Sir Jurdian said. Otherwise, Britain would have clamored for pressure on the government in the north. But now, they can't. Otherwise, the northern government would be completely forced to fall in favor of the Germans.

Minister Pasteur nodded: "In addition, our allies have no consciousness of defeat at all, and looking at the conditions they put forward, I thought they were the victorious powers!" ”

"Since our allies are not sober yet, let them sober up a little more. When they have paid more heavy losses, I believe they will recognize the reality. Sir Jurden said.

This mediation was undoubtedly an extreme failure. At the same time, it also made Britain and France a little jealous. The stubbornness of the Russians, combined with the troubles of the Germans and Americans, made it impossible for them to control the situation at all.

"Yes, judging by the current situation, if the Russians want to win the war, it is almost impossible." Minister Pasteur said.

So far, Russia has lost six or seven hundred thousand troops. But even at this time, the Russians were not willing to admit defeat. If this continues, they will have to wait for them to pay more heavy losses before they come forward to mediate.

Both Britain and France wanted Russia to shift its energies to Europe, because the Allied bloc was their worst enemy. However, the stubborn Russians kept their eyes on these barren places in the Far East, and did not hesitate to lose hundreds of thousands of troops in this process. This made both Britain and France very dissatisfied. So. Even if the Russians were their allies, they would never help the Russians in the slightest. They even hoped for a quick defeat of the Russians so that they could concentrate their forces on Europe.

Between countries, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Even if Russia joined the Entente. But it was also regarded as a pawn by Britain and France. Since the chess pieces are disobedient, then Britain and France will naturally give the Russians a little color to see.

At the same time, Yang Du, secretary general of the Political Affairs Committee of the Northern Government, was also talking with German Minister Hahausen and US Minister Rou Keyi. On the one hand, they thanked the two countries for their support in the negotiations, and on the other hand, they wanted to get a batch of financial assistance from Germany and the United States. Although the Northern Army taught the Russians a hard lesson on the battlefield, the Russians were beaten with. However, it is all built on powerful firepower. Whether it was a fierce assault on Vladivostok or a decisive battle for Cullen. The Northern Army consumed a lot of weapons and ammunition. It can really be described as a cannon fire, and it is ten thousand taels of gold. If there is not enough military spending, it will not be able to support such consumption at all.

"Thank you to the German and U.S. governments for their support. Otherwise, we will not be able to withstand the pressure of Britain, France and Russia. Yang Du expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart. Of course, this is just pretense. The Germans and Americans helped the government in the North only for their own benefit. The Germans, in particular, were unkind, and wanted to treat the government of the North as a pawn.

"Your Excellency, the German Government is very important to the Northern Government against the Russians. Fighting a just war is very admirable. Naturally, we are ready to give our full support to the Government of the North. Minister Hahausen said.

"The government of the North is a close friend of the United States. The United States will not watch the government of the North being bullied. Minister Rou Keyi also said.

"Thank you again for your support. However, although we have won this war, we are also facing many difficulties, and we hope that the German and American governments will once again help us. Yang Du said.

"Of course, there is something we need help with. Your Excellency the Secretary-General, please do not hesitate. Minister Hahausen said immediately.

Minister Rou Keyi hesitated for a moment, but also nodded.

"We need financial assistance, this war consumes too much military spending, before the loan. It's almost spent. Yang Du said. Of course, the reality is that although those loans have not yet been spent, it always does not hurt to prepare more military spending.

"Your Excellency, the Government of Germany can provide the Government of the North with free assistance of 20 million marks. In addition, a loan of DM 200 million could be provided to the Government of the North. Interest and repayment methods can be referred to the previous conditions. Minister Hahausen said. In order for the Northern Army to continue the war, the Germans did not hesitate to spend their money. The worse the Germans fought, the better it would be for Germany, who wished that the Northern Army would be able to exhaust all the strength of the Russians in the Far East and Siberia.

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Yang Du hurriedly thanked. Twenty million marks of gratuitous aid is equivalent to eight million oceans. And the loan of 200 million marks is equivalent to 80 million oceans. For the government of the North, this is undoubtedly a lot of money.

Then, Yang Du looked at Minister Rou Keyi with blank eyes. Now that the German friends have already expressed their positions, it seems that the American friends should also provide some help to the northern government.

Minister Rou Keyi hesitated for a moment before he said: "The United States can provide the northern government with $5 million in free aid and $50 million in loans. ”

Because of the performance of the Northern Army on the battlefield, the US government no longer had the slightest doubt that the Northern Army would win the war. It's just that the U.S. government obviously doesn't want to see the northern government too strong. In that case, it may be out of the control of the U.S. government. In particular, the northern government was too close to the Germans, which attracted the attention of the Americans. Although the northern government is now needed to contain the Japanese, the U.S. government has deliberately weakened its support for the northern government.

"Thank you, Your Excellency!" Yang Du's face was about to be laughed.

The five million dollars in gratuitous aid provided by the Americans is equivalent to 10 million oceans. The loan of 50 million US dollars is equivalent to 100 million oceans. In this way, the support provided by Germany and the United States to the northern government this time includes 18 million oceans of free aid and 180 million oceans of loans.

Although, the northern government is now in debt. But if there are more lice, it will not itch, and if there are more debts, there will be no worries. The people in the northern government from top to bottom seem to have been affected by Wu Haoxuan, and they are not in a hurry at all. Although there are a lot of loans, Wu Haoxuan is not worried. By the time of World War I, it was time to make a big profit. When the time comes, not only will all foreign debts be repaid, but we will also be able to take the opportunity to allow the domestic industry to develop rapidly. Isn't the reason why the United States and Japan were so powerful after World War I was because they sold a large amount of war materials to both sides of the war with the help of the war? This time, China will not miss such an opportunity.

After the negotiations collapsed, the Russian Minister to China, Ronsovet, returned to Yanjing as soon as possible and submitted a report to Russian Foreign Minister Izvorsky.

And Izvorsky took this report with him to the imperial council convened by Tsar Nicholas II.

"Your Majesty, this is the negotiation report submitted by the Minister in China, please take a look!" Izvorsky handed over the report to Nicholas II.

Nicholas II took it, but then his face turned pale.

"Damn, those yellow-skinned monkeys dare to put forward such a condition, it's too much to see. Do they really think we can't do anything about them? Enraged, Nicholas II tore the report to shreds and roared loudly in anger.

"Your Majesty, the conditions put forward by the northern government are indeed too harsh, which is clearly to slaughter us as a defeated country." Chancellor of the Exchequer Sergei. Witt chimed in.

However, the other ministers did not say much. Although Russia is not yet a defeated country, it seems that it is only one step away from defeat.

The remnants of the army besieged in Kulen are about to be destroyed. It is unlikely that Russia will be able to turn the tables in the middle of the war. Eastern Siberia is too far away from Russia, and their military strength is too strong to be put there in time. Unless, after a long period of patient preparation, the Russians will drop their troops little by little, and then attack. Perhaps, that will have a chance to turn around. However, the current domestic and international situation no longer allows Russia to do that.

"Your Majesty, the defeat of our army on the battlefield has caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the people. Those activities that disrupted the party were also active. If we can't end the war as soon as possible, I'm afraid the problem will be in trouble. "Interior Minister Vyacheslav. Previ said.

"Damn, now is the time for us to fight the enemy, if those chaotic parties dare to make trouble, all of them will be wiped out." The Tsar said angrily.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Vyacheslav. Previ nodded hurriedly. He knew that those chaotic parties had hit the muzzle of the gun this time.

"Your Majesty, the Northern Army is marching on the Governorate of Eastern Siberia. According to the information we received, the Northern Army sent a large number of cavalry to march in the direction of Irkutsk. War Minister Sukhhomlinov said.

"I know that the situation is very bad for us. However, in this war, we absolutely cannot easily admit defeat. We must continue to fight until we win the war. "Nicholas II's stubborn old mistake has undoubtedly been repeated. (To be continued......)
