On the streets of Moscow, a group of people hugged each other, and crabs were running around.

This is precisely the member of the special diplomatic mission headed by Yang Hao.

According to the plan, it should have been Gu Weijun and them divided their troops into several ways, each went to the streets and alleys to mess around, and clearly showed the identity of Chinese everywhere, and it was best to provoke some nationalist Tsarist Mao to find fault, and then fight, which was very wonderful.

What's the matter, Gu Weijun and the others are too disciplined, and they really can't pull the face to do such things, Yang Hao had to go into battle shirtless and bring all the young people with him in order to demonstrate in person.

He didn't deliberately provoke the locals, but pulled out more than a dozen counselors, secretaries, military attachés, clerks, etc., plus twice the number of internal guards openly and secretly accompanied each other, forming a pile of at least thirty people, and wandering around the streets.

Not only a large group of people, but also a few cars followed. Two of them were lengthened bulletproof sedans that arrived with the train, and there were also service vehicles sent by the Chinese Embassy in Russia.

It is conceivable how eye-catching such a team suddenly appeared on the street, as if it was exterminated a few years ago!

First of all, the Moscow police, who suppressed the order of the streets, were taken aback, and when they were about to step forward to stop them, they found that this group was all Chinese, and the purpose of the people was very clear: "They are here to go shopping and buy things." ”

Police officer Mao Zi stared at the front and back with wide eyes, and his head was full of desire to complain: "Nima, who is shopping to make such a big noise!" Someone in front went out a few hundred meters to scout the road, a bunch of tactical teams blocked and responded, and dozens of people piled up on the street to cause traffic chaos - are you sure you didn't come to find fault? ”

Moscow in 1909 was already built quite well. There are quite a few horse-drawn carriages, cars and bicycles on the streets. Although there was no traffic jam. But there wasn't much room for the loose crowds of the Thirty to run rampant.

Yang Hao's gang walked slowly. When he saw a good store, he rushed over, and immediately scared the boss to the core, thinking that it was a robbery that came up in the blue sky and daylight.

The police are also on standby, waiting for them to make a mistake with wide eyes. But no matter what kind of diplomats they are, as long as they dare to violate Russian law, they must clean up!

True, the Russian police and citizens are very hostile to the Chinese. The reason for this is that the Chinese Navy defeated the Russian Navy several times in a row. and annihilate the feud planted by one of their armies. Later, there was the ongoing armed confrontation between the two countries in the Far East, as well as all kinds of difficulties and tricks in the construction of the Eastern Railway.

In the past ten years, all kinds of contradictions have been propagated by Tsarist Russia itself as China's unilateral unreasonableness, and where can the illiterate Russian people, who are the majority, distinguish between truth and falsehood? They naturally follow the path of government propaganda to understand, so they are full of unhappiness.

Of course, they are accustomed to taking advantage of foreign aggression, and they never feel that they are being blocked on the road to expansion, how normal it is.

In the end, it was the bourgeois revolutionary movement that had begun five years earlier that had finally angered the Russians. Most of them, including the Mensheviks, except for the Bolsheviks. Under the pretext of the weakness and incompetence of the Tsarist government in its policy toward China, they vigorously attacked the tsar's mediocrity and the stupidity of the army and government bureaucrats.

Using Alexander II as a reference, they denounced Nicholas II's successive defeats in the expansion of the Far East, ignoring the fact that China's rapidly growing power had surpassed that of Russia and became extremely terrifying, unilaterally propagating China's impudence and arrogance, and smearing and demonizing it to the fullest.

In the final analysis, it's nothing more than borrowing the topic to play.

However, the majority of the Russian people, who do not know the truth, have been greatly affected by this, believing that the hardships and hardships they are facing today are caused by the Chinese (or rather, caused by the Chinese's refusal to cooperate with their aggression and blackmail), and the Russians are very angry about this, and all kinds of clamors to launch war retaliation.

However, Nicholas II and the Russian bureaucrats knew that this was not a good time to start a war against China. The country has just gone through intense turmoil, and the formation of the State Duma to reform the constitutional monarchy will take time to stabilize the political situation. The Far Eastern Offensive requires a large army and logistical forces, and it will also take time to produce and deliver decisive advanced heavy weapons and equipment.

The most important thing is the construction of a railway from Lake Baikal to Vladivostok. Without completing this important artery of communication for a single day, they will not be able to guarantee a steady stream of logistical supplies in the war.

The patience of the Tsarist government was seen by many as inaction, and from 1905 to 1907 various revolutionary movements broke out in various parts of Russia.

How could Nicholas II's brutality allow a bunch of untouchables to run around?

So during the march in Moscow, the Russian soldiers shot and killed more than 1,000 people.

Subsequently, Stolypin suppressed the revolutionary movement throughout the country with an iron fist, arrested countless people, killed thousands, exiled a large number of people, and disbanded and re-established the State Duma, which had just developed a model of multi-ethnic and multi-party democratic elections, and completely turned it into a puppet of the tsar.

The series of bloodshed represents the brutal suppression of the new revolutionary forces by the stubborn old forces.

And many Russians blame the Chinese for this result, and I really don't know what they think.

At present, Yang Hao is openly ramming the streets of Moscow with a large group of "ugly" Chinese, easily pulling up huge hate groups. It wasn't long before many Moscow citizens began to gather around them, and some impatient and reckless men even geared up to go up and make a rough move.

When the police saw this, they did not dare to sit idly by.

In any case, Yang Hao and others are diplomatic envoys, they don't take the initiative to make trouble, and their own people attack first, so they don't take advantage of it.

The police chief and the deputy mayor who rushed to hear the news hurriedly dissuaded Yang Hao and asked them to end the outdoor exercise as soon as possible, and the consulate would rest, but Yang Hao was not happy, and stared at them to reason: "We heard about Russia's great historical and cultural achievements in China, and it is rare to have the opportunity to see it, so we left important work to experience it personally." How. Could it be that Russia does not have confidence in the achievements of civilization that it has created? ”

How can you say no!

The deputy mayor and the director could only pinch their noses and agree. In addition, they are also quite proud of their splendid civilization. If you can shock the uninformed Chinese, you can count it as a breath of relief, right?

As a result, the police began to disperse the onlookers, and Yang Hao and others continued to visit.

They are not wandering around empty-handed, every time they go to a place, they see something with national characteristics, and they don't say a word, they wave their hands and buy them!

What amber gold fur gestures. Jade, diamonds, books, paintings, caviar, vodka, champagne and big leba, everything that is different from China's output, buy and buy! The virtue of a whole chopping group.

At first, the owner of Maozi's shop didn't deal with it, but when he saw that Yang Hao's handwriting was so refreshing, even if they deliberately quoted twice the price, they accepted it without blinking, and then they wanted to empty the entire store, and threw money out, and suddenly all the rituals were thrown out of the clouds.

Yes. They are patriotic, but they love money even more.

No one prescribes. If you are patriotic, you are not allowed to make money, right? Besides, earning several times the windfall profit from the Chinese is also another means of revenge, right? Well, it's worth promoting!

The news that "the Chinese nouveau riche sweeper group came to Moscow" spread far and wide, and in the blink of an eye, it spread to the surrounding streets and alleys. For a while, countless shopkeepers and second-class vendors went out one after another, stretching their necks in anticipation of their arrival.

Some people with flexible brains and great powers simply spend money and bribe acquaintances in the government and the police to help, and deliberately lead the people of the chopping group to their homes. As long as you can kidnap people, there are big rebates!

Yang Hao's spending money is too amazing, and in the blink of an eye, the cars sent by the two embassies are all crammed except for the driver's seat, and this has not gone far!

In desperation, they had no choice but to use the radio to call the headquarters to send two more cars to pick them up, and they themselves ran back at full speed to unload them, and then came back to borrow their strength—it seemed that they had to be the captain of the transport team all day.

Wherever the chopping group passed, the citizens of Moscow were smiling!

After the suppression of the revolutionary movement two years ago, the market was depressed and incomes were declining, and life was really difficult. Today, when you meet such a bold buyer, you can wait for it, and you will get a year's income every day!

Yang Hao walked around at will with great interest, Hulong came here, Hula went there, and with a wave of his arm, it was thousands of rubles.

Gu Weijun was sweating profusely, and he had to buy goods according to the requirements. Boss Yang paid for it, and they treated shopping as a political task, and that kind of awkwardness was not mentioned.

After tossing all the way, he finally couldn't help it, and looked at the opportunity to ask Yang Hao: "Sir, what are we doing?" Spending so much money to buy a bunch of things back, seems to be a suspicion of being an enemy? ”

Yang Hao was carrying a set of matryoshka dolls, but his eyes were staring at the little daughter of the shopkeeper who was forced to come out to stand at the counter, a Slavic beauty with blonde hair, long legs and a thin waist, glaring at him angrily, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's my own money that is spent, and I won't violate any rules." In addition, we spend this little money today, but we can play a tenfold and hundredfold effect, which is a small profit! ”

After speaking, he shook the nesting doll at the little beauty: "Is this made according to your appearance?" ”

The translator on the side looked embarrassed, why did this master dare to say anything? But it has to be paraphrased according to the meaning, and no amount of wording can change the obvious flirtatious meaning.

When the little beauty heard this, she was immediately furious, like a Russian aunt possessing her, and she was about to go crazy on the spot.

The shopkeeper's face is not very good-looking. You came in to take care of my business, so you have nothing to say, but openly flirting with my daughter, it's just too unusual!

The two of them were lucky, Yang Hao blocked back with a sentence: "If it is, I'll buy a hundred sets and go back and give them away." ”

The shopkeeper decisively covered his daughter's little mouth that was about to explode, dragged it to the back fiercely, and nodded again and again with a smile: "That's right!" That's right! It's just like Natasha, and you see, how beautiful it is! Are you sure you want to buy a hundred sets? ”

Yang Hao was too lazy to repeat, and waved his hand: "Give money!" ”

The sturdy houseguard on the side threw the black suitcase on the counter, grabbed the bundles of tickets and threw them out, and the shopkeeper looked at the number of hardly visible numbers inside, and the hala was about to flow out.

The deputy mayor and the police chief who accompanied him on the side had colorful faces, and they couldn't wait to go up and grab the shopkeeper's neck and scold: "What about your national integrity? What about your festival? Are they all fed to the dogs? A little money will make you this virtuous!"

The two of them couldn't help but look at the slowly closing black box, and their eyes flashed with golden light - a lot of money!

Such scenes have been played out again and again. No matter how strong the heart is, people can't stand the stimulation. The two bureaucrats retreated decisively. Leave a few civil servants of sufficient rank to take turns to accompany them. When they go back to report the situation, the key is to find a place to rest, so as not to burst their blood vessels if they are stimulated.

In these years, Russian civil servants are not a bunch of good birds in their bones, and there is no so-called honesty and dedication. When they see someone throwing money at it, the first thing they think of is a piece of the pie.

Yang Hao's envoys had such extravagant means of spending money, which made them red-eyed. No need to command, just a look. There were plainclothes and dog-legged men quietly moving behind, going door to door to blackmail the shopkeepers and owners who had just made a fortune.

Don't think that you can eat it alone after making so much money, and how can you not share in the profits of the chiefs who provide these conveniences?

It is conceivable that the final result is that those bosses are overjoyed, and the numbers that fall into their hands are pitiful.

Anger, as the chopping ball progresses, is slowly accumulating. It's just that the target of hatred has been replaced by the Moscow police and government thugs.

And all that. They were all seen by some well-intentioned people and quietly photographed with a camera.

The vigorous shopping activity lasted for several days. It has affected almost all the main streets and business districts of Moscow, and the number of rubles spent is in the hundreds of thousands, and the number of people who have made a fortune from it is unknown. But among them, only a very few of them have big backers behind them, or simply commercial bases opened by the upper echelons of the aristocracy, and the rest of the small citizens, and in the end, there are not many big sons in their hands.

Under the tandem of well-intentioned people, a wave of public anger is rapidly accumulating and fermenting, but it has not yet reached the level of explosion.

Tsar Nicholas II was like an angry child, he refused to summon Yang Hao and the special mission, and every day when he was idle and had nothing to do, he asked people to inquire about further news, and he listened to it at home with the empress for fun.

But it was the same for several days, and he finally felt a strange smell: "This is not right! Logically speaking, the Chinese took the initiative to renegotiate the "Treaty of Aihun", and they also took the initiative to send a mission, how did they arrive at the place, but they were not in a hurry at all? ”

With the wisdom of Nicholas II, he could not judge the intention at all, and he hurriedly summoned a large group of bureaucrats to work together, and the very favored Chief of Staff Gilinsky made a rough and direct suggestion: "Whatever the hell they are going to do, just ignore it." Anyway, there are questions about the territories of the Far East, and we don't need to discuss them at all. ”

In fact, it is his private industry that has just benefited from Yang Hao's shopping action, and he is now working overtime to allocate resources from all over the country to make money, how can it be over immediately!

Grand Duke Nicholas also held the same attitude: "The Chinese like to help us revitalize the economy, which is a good thing!" The money they spent could at least help us arm several divisions! Haha, I love it! ”

Prime Minister Stolypin, however, felt that it was inappropriate and prudently reminded them: "We must remain suspicious of the actions of the Chinese and always be vigilant against their ulterior motives." This is a critical period for the formulation and implementation of various policy decisions in our country, and there must be no room for mistakes. In addition, as far as I know, it seems that some revolutionaries are starting to get restless again, and we cannot rule out the possibility that they will take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble. ”

As for what opportunity to borrow, he didn't know what to say, and all the nobles and lords present knew that it was the constant bullying, oppression, and exploitation of their minions and doglegs that made the people's resentment boil.

As if he hadn't heard the subtext at all, Nicholas II waved his hand indifferently: "Those hateful rebels, as long as they dare to jump out, they will all be arrested, exiled or driven out!" ”

On the whole, the Tsarist government was quite lenient, except for the brutal suppression of the large-scale movement, the number of captured revolutionaries was in the minority, and the majority in exile and imprisonment.

Stolypin frowned, but he had no choice but to arrange for people to do things himself.

But he knew very well in his heart that if he continued to toss like this, the conflict between his ideas and the upper echelons of the nobility would become more and more acute and intense.

Another day of sweeping is over, and the young and strong lads are tired and staggering.

When they were in school, they all went through the strict training of the national arts instructors, and they also boxed and exercised every day, and their physical energy was not comparable to ordinary people, but they were also exhausted by the peculiar activity of shopping.

Gu Weijun had to protest to Yang Hao again: "Sir, it can't go on like this anymore!" Our mission should be carried out as soon as possible! ”

Yang Hao said slowly: "We are working!" ”

"Huh?!"

Gu Weijun and a bunch of young people were all dumbfounded, spending money all over the street, and it was also considered a job?

Yang Hao instructed someone to boil tea for them, and patiently explained: "What you learn in school is diplomatic work in a purely theoretical sense. But when it comes to the practical level, we must put aside all those rules and regulations. Let me start by asking you, what are the principles of diplomatic work? ”

Everyone looked at each other, and Gu Weijun replied confidently: "Be polite and courteous, and live up to your mission." ”

The specific provisions are naturally many articles, but in general, the criterion to be upheld still falls on the four words "not dishonoring the mission".

Yang Hao shook his finger: "Wrong." Remember, diplomacy is a war without gunpowder! In war, there is no etiquette, only you live and die, do everything! ”

Such an explanation shocked everyone! This is completely different from what they listen to the teacher in school!

As if feeling that this was not enough, Yang Hao went further and said: "To put it bluntly, to engage in diplomacy is to use our wisdom and wisdom to use various means to exchange the greatest damage to the enemy and opponent at the lowest cost, so as to avoid the huge cost and far-reaching war behavior as much as possible." It can be said that the time and manner of the outbreak of a war are determined by diplomats. The ultimate benefit that the country will gain from the war will depend on whether or not our work can be done to the fullest! In diplomatic work, we should strive for the greatest interests of our own country as much as possible by unscrupulous means and minimize external threats and unfavorable factors. ”

Therefore, I am in no way in favor of gentlemanly diplomacy, peace and fraternity. We only need to be responsible for the interests of our own country and our nation. In the face of foreign nationalities, when you are unreasonable, you must use strong words to reason, and you must fight for three points if you are unreasonable! When it is reasonable, then it has to be unforgiving! Be sure to maximize profits! As for the interests of other friends, we must first meet our own needs, and then spill a little as appropriate, and absolutely not engage in the kind of exploitation of our own people to curry favor with outsiders! ”

Yang Hao's words made Gu Weijun and the others speechless for a long time.

This is too far from the gentleman's education they received since childhood, and it is simply not from the same plane!

Confucianism in China has occupied orthodoxy for more than a thousand years, and has formed an extremely strange and distorted habit, which is cruel to the inside and lenient to the outside. Another one, the upper class generally likes to whitewash the peace, pretending to be generous and refreshing, but in fact, they act as the wronged boss!

The tributary system since the Eastern Han Dynasty is a typical example, and the way Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty treated the barbarian peoples well and the Tang Dynasty's series of reckless acts brought down the country, and it is a living example. The shamelessness of the literati doctors of the Song Dynasty kneeling and licking the rebellious foreigners is unbearable to read, and the Qing Dynasty's "preference to give to friends rather than domestic slaves" is not only explained by ethnic estrangement?

Gu Weijun and even the previous generation grew up reading sage books, and their mindsets were generally affected by this. And in this world, under the guise of "diplomacy is no trivial matter", turning tens of millions of bureaucrats into foreign slaves and forcing more than a billion people to kneel and lick the ugly faces of foreign devils, it is even more ridiculous in the world!

When Yang Hao was a little commoner, he gritted his teeth with hatred for this, but he was helpless.

Now he has the ability to influence the future of a nation, and he will never allow such poison to continue to harm his descendants!

With a slightly hideous face, Yang Hao told everyone word by word: "This time, I will use practical actions to let you understand what alternative diplomacy is with ulterior motives." You will know in a few days that all my actions today are aimed at creating chaos in the central hinterland of the Russians! (To be continued......)
