On July 14, the 19th year of Wucheng, and on August 3, 7225, the Russian creation calendar, the two delegations resumed negotiations.
At the beginning, the Russians abruptly changed their tune, declaring that they could not give up the area east of the Lena and Oryok rivers, but that they could give up the area between the Shilka River and the Ergun River on the basis of the Treaty of Nebuchu as a compensation for China. Suddenly, the atmosphere became solemn, and the Huaxia delegation was wondering about the reason for the Russians' repentance, could it be that the Russians were ready to attack and were ready to tear their faces and fight with Huaxia?
After being silent for a long time, Jia Wenqing coughed dryly in his throat, then stood up and announced with difficulty: "In view of the demands of the two countries, the negotiations between the two sides are terminated. ”
Jia Wenqing's transgression made An Wenhua very dissatisfied, but at this moment he had to be consistent with Jia Wenqing in front of the Russians, so he didn't say anything, stood up and prepared to leave.
The Chinese mission was ready to break through the cauldron for war, but the Russians had now miserated their expectations. Could it be that the Chinese side misunderstood the Huaxia side's action to delay the process of the meeting, but in fact, the other side did not send a reconnaissance force at all, and it was indeed the negotiator who returned to Selengesk to receive the emperor's edict? Or did the Russian army in Krasnoyarsk not make a move to the east, so that the Chinese side could clearly see that the actions of the Russian mission were only intimidation?
The brain-teaser Russians had to retreat on the spot: "Your Excellency the Honorary Count, please wait. ”
Looking at Count Magnitogor, who had stopped him, An Wenhua asked, "What else do you have to say?" ”
"My country is extremely surprised that your country has so recklessly renounced peace." The treacherous and cunning Count Magnitogor lowered his stature and did not forget to hit a rake. "In fact, our country is ready to make even greater concessions, for example, by exchanging the entire Nizhny Baikal region for the region north of the Upper Baikal region and the Stanov Mountains."
The Russians' fierce expression made all the Chinese officials present secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and An Wenhua also swept away the decadent Tang Dynasty, and clearly told the other party in a secretly smug tone: "So that your envoy knows that the bottom line of this dynasty has been told to Your Excellency early in the morning, if it is not allowed, only the soldiers will meet, but your envoy can rest assured, our dynasty has no intention of invading Russia in the west, but the entire northern plains is the hometown of my dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, so our dynasty still has to take it back." ”
Take back all of Siberia? The Russians were of course scoffing at Anwenhua's clamour, but it was now possible that the Xia army could carry out a destructive attack on the upper Yenisei River valley and force the entire Yenisei region to evacuate like the Russians in Bratsk and elsewhere.
Thinking of the complete end of Russia's many years of colonization in Eastern Siberia, Count Magnitogor, who had gone into battle shirtless, could only take a step back: "We only need the Upper Baikal region, and if your country is willing to return the Upper Baikal region, Russia is willing to hand over all the regions east of the Lena River and the Nizhny Baikal region to the Chinese Empire." ”
Jia Wenqing An Wenhua once again affirmed: "The bottom line of our dynasty is the entire Beihai region and the east of the Lena River. ”
Count Magnitogor's face changed again and again, and finally said with a gloomy face: "Since the Chinese Empire has no sincerity at all, then our country believes that there is no need for the negotiations between the two sides to continue. ”
Count Magnitogor then pretended to threaten and said: "It was your country that chose the war, and Russia reserves the right to fight back, as your ambassador said before, if your country intends to invade the whole of Siberia, then don't blame Russia for invading Khalkha and Manchuria at that time, and burning the flames of war to China itself." ”
After listening to the translation, Bao Chongzhiteng stood up: "War? We'll be there for you to the end. ”
It seems that the negotiations have only begun on this day, and they are on the verge of breaking down in less than half a pillar of incense, but in fact, neither side is capable of holding a big war, but only bluffing each other.
At this time, Count Magnitogor made an astonishing move: "Your Excellency, I propose that you and I talk to each other separately, and perhaps we can get a certain consensus. ”
Are the Russians ready to show their charisma? Or are you ready to offer a private bribe? Or is it a one-on-one meeting? For a while, everyone's eyes fell on An Wenhua's body, which made the Huaxia protector a little hesitant.
As if knowing why An Wenhua hesitated, Count Magnitogor added with great interest: "By the way, since you and I cannot communicate directly, the interpreters of both sides can be left, and the clerk in charge of the records can also be left. ”
Although it could not be ruled out that the Russians would be unable to hold themselves hostage, An Wenhua, who felt that he could not show his timid side in front of his subordinates and barbarians, still agreed to Count Magnitogor's request while thinking about it in his head, so the two sides withdrew from the negotiation venue, and only the lower clerk and the interpreter accompanied the respective officials.
"Your Excellency." When the clearing was complete, Count Magnitogor handed a piece of paper in front of him to An Wenhua. "This is the report of the officials of the Central Siberian Governor of our country." An Wenhua didn't know how to take this one upside down and couldn't understand the Russian letters on it, so he could only put it aside again and listen to what the other party said. "I think Your Excellency must be very interested in the Tatar army that destroyed the cities of Yerbosk and Jalaraskk in the lower Tunguska valley according to the report that a Tatar army has been destroyed."
"The army of the Tatars? Could it be? "This is the first time An Wenhua has heard the news of the remnants of the Qing court after two years, and his heart has been a little distracted for a while." I don't see that they still have the strength to conquer your city. ”
"Yes, although these Tatar armies used blockade tactics similar to those of yours to conquer Russian cities, it is impossible to deny that this army still exists." Count Magnitogor said in the tone of a close friend. "The Qing ** team, although they can no longer be called a country, are still the most terrible enemies of your two countries. In the face of such an enemy, if our two countries continue to be entangled over the border issue, perhaps they will grow stronger again??????"
"Alarmist." An Wenhua restrained his wavering mind and commented in a disdainful tone. "Let's not talk about what forces a remnant army has that threatens the two countries, even if it threatens, it is only a threat to your country, what does it have to do with our dynasty."
"Your Excellency should not be a short-sighted person." Count Magnitogor quietly sneered at An Wenhua, and then said a showdown. "I believe that what these Tatars hate most is the seizure of their country and the future Chinese Empire, and if Russia is willing to help them restore power, do you think they will cooperate with Russia?"
An Wenhua frowned, yes, the Russians were not wrong, if Russia is willing to help the remnants of the Qing court, then at least the North Sea will never be at peace, and if the Russians do not provide convenience, it is impossible for the Xia army to penetrate deep into the Central Tunguska Plateau and the Northern Siberian Plateau to clear this remnant enemy. But think about it on the other hand, even if China makes concessions in terms of territory, the Russians are willing to unite with the Xia army to eliminate this Qing army, will the Xia army really have the strength to destroy them? No, it's impossible, I probably only had a broken head and would order the Xia army to fight in the lower Tunguska River valley, where supplies were inconvenient. But if you don't destroy them, will you be able to stop them along the Lena River? No, this is also impossible, the Xia army agreed that it could not afford to maintain a patrol along the long Lena River, but the Russians, who had many towns along the Lena River, might be able to provide assistance, but was this a game of tigers?
An Wenhua, who had a messy brain, asked in a tone of pretense of puzzlement, "What does your envoy mean?" ”
"Russia needs the whole of Baikal." Count Magnitogor said in a dagger manner. "If the Chinese Empire can agree to this condition, our country can send troops to assist your country in exterminating this group of Tatar bandits on the basis of the transfer to the Chinese Empire of the Lena River, the area east of the Oryok River, and the north of the Starov Mountains."
"This can't be?" An Wenhua flatly denied. "It is impossible for our DPRK to abandon the entire Beihai region, nor will we send troops across the Lena River into your territory to help your country eliminate these bandits."
Seeing that An Wenhua did not bite the bait, Count Magnitogor was a little disappointed, but he still did not give up his efforts: "Then we will take a step back, that is, your country will return the Upper Baikal region to our country, and our country will be responsible for exterminating these Tatar bandits on our own." ”
"I need to discuss it with my staff." An Wenhua did not reply to the absolute prescription. "Tomorrow I will give you an answer."
Count Magnitogor felt that there was a door, and was naturally willing to wait for good news, but he was worried that the other party would disappear again, so he said a bad joke: "Tomorrow?" There is no problem, but Your Excellency confirms that there will be no more will of the Emperor of your country tomorrow? ”
An Wenhua ignored the other party's sarcasm as a matter of course, but when he returned to his own camp, another bad news was waiting for him: "What? What do you think of the Rakshasa soldiers who have begun to clear out our army's scouts and have a large-scale eastward advance? ”
Although Bao Chongzhi is not a martial artist, he can be regarded as a pig run if he is good at the military department, so his judgment is: "Judging from the reaction of the Rakshasa people at today's venue, it seems that they have not yet known about the eastward advance of the Rakshasa soldiers and horses, is this a loss of cooperation between the Rakshasa civil and military forces?" Or is our procrastination too obvious that the Rakshasas are just using it to get their hands dirty? ”
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." An Wenhua gave a brief explanation of what he had just learned from Count Magnitogor. "The eastward march of his national soldiers and horses seems to be aimed at the remnants of Jianyu, but it may not be a pressure on our DPRK."
The officials of the Beihai Metropolitan Protectorate who were present were obviously shocked by this accident, and everyone was silent in thought.
"I'm afraid that the Rakshasas will take back Huxi from us on the one hand, and on the other hand, they will turn their heads and hook up with Jiannu." After a long time, Honglu made Jia Wenqing speak. "Then the dynasty will be passive."
An Wenhua agreed: "It is precisely because of this that the official did not dare to agree to the request of the Rakshasa envoy in person, so he turned around and asked a few adults to negotiate together, seeking a safe way to leave no trouble??????
