PS: Bow and thank Wang Jingxian for the reward of children's shoes, thank you, thank you!!

After learning of this additional condition, Japan's top leaders came up with a unified plan after a short period of consultations.

Now that the weather is freezing and the delivery of supplies is difficult, the attack that was no longer a test has no effect, but has suffered heavy damage, and without the assistance of aircraft, it is difficult for them to take the target in a short time. Once the battle is deadlocked, it will be unbearable attrition for both sides, and even more so for Japan. They need a quick fix to reduce the cost of war.

As for the list taken out by the Germans, in addition to some rare metals and rare minerals that are not huge in quantity, those equipment are indeed civilian, including steelmaking, power generation, drilling and other equipment, all of which are civilian equipment, and there is no shadow of military industry.

From this point of view alone, these Japanese bigwigs are acceptable, after all, the people's livelihood has nothing to do with the military industry, and if they want to use these equipment to produce military equipment, they must also have skills. Even if there is a technique, it must have a technician. The military industry is not a huge project that can be completed in a short period of time.

Terauchi Shouichi was determined to obtain this weapon, and he believed that the value of this weapon itself should not be discussed, and that the way of delivering ammunition must be obtained, which would play an epoch-making role in the study of weapons and would play a decisive role in Japan's expansion.

He was indeed sharp-eyed, and at that time, the concept of the rocket had not yet been released, and even if there was an idea, it was only a direction, and the results had not yet come out. And the way Iron Fist delivers ammunition is exactly similar to the principle of rockets, with Iron Fist, the appearance of rockets will be advanced.

The other bigwigs have no objection to a truce for the time being. Now the big battle is indeed not the best time, although the two-day attack has suffered heavy damage, but at least they have gotten the information, that is, the other party is a difficult bone to gnaw. Without the assistance of aircraft, taking the position would have cost dearly.

However, they do not intend to compromise at all, even if they are allies, and it is uncomfortable for them to fund their enemies for their own benefit. So, after all kinds of calculations. The price had to be kept down, of course, and by the way the armistice was confined to one place, which was Harbin, the front end of the transport route mentioned by the Germans.

This concession is equivalent to that they can attack Qiqihar at any time instead of a real truce, just wait for Germany to complete the deal, and then they will start attacking Harbin, and the time limit does not allow the Germans to delay indefinitely, in case Qiqihar is taken, Harbin is close at hand but blocks the recovery of Heilongjiang, that is for the overall strategic goal. is unacceptable.

When Yugo Shiga got the bottom line of the negotiation and found Paricino again, neither of them looked too deep into this.

Paricino believes that the deal they reached with the Swiss company was to send the equipment to Harbin, not to stop the fighting in Heilongjiang as long as the equipment arrived in Harbin, and the deal was completed. As for the Japanese fighting elsewhere in Heilongjiang, that's none of their business.

As a result, the two sides happily signed a contract for the sale and purchase of the Iron Fist and an agreement on a truce in Harbin within three months. and the Japanese side to assist in the delivery of equipment, the cost of which is of course from Germany.

The contract is signed. Paricino called one of the Swiss who had been left in Berlin to be in charge of contact, and the news reached Pontianak.

After Tie Luohan completed the handover of the warship, he bought a four-thousand-ton cargo ship in Italy, and bought a shipload of various rare materials and minerals in a tense dispatch. Out of the Suez Canal, head straight for Pontianak.

After receiving the telegram, he immediately sent a telegram to Dong Ku, reported the matter, and told Dong Ku that the task had been completed.

Dong Ku was not too surprised to receive the telegram. In his opinion, Lao Xi will definitely try his best to facilitate this.

After he burned the telegram, he didn't bring the guards, he came to a house that had been prepared for a long time, carefully painted makeup, and turned himself into a cleanly dressed and Westernized businessman.

"Mr. Christian, I'm Mitsuo Sato, who is in charge of receiving equipment from ARMS, so please take care of me."

"You're Japanese?"

Christian was surprised that the Japanese would join this mysterious company, not to mention, but also conduct weapons tests against their own country, adding pain to their own people.

"Yes, Mr. Christian." Dong Ku said in a standard Tokyo accent, "For the convenience of our business, and for the sake of talents, we can gather the essence of the world and develop projects for the company, so there are elites from all over the world in the company, and I am just a field officer, responsible for liaising on some things." ”

"Oh......"

Christian apologized for his gaffe and asked, "Mr. Sato, I have been called from Berlin, and the first lathes will arrive in Shanghai in twenty days, Dalian in three days, and Harbin in mid-February." ”

"One month ......"

Dong Ku summed up and said, "Then Mr. Christian, the lathe and equipment have been delivered in batches?" ”

"The plan is three batches." Christian said calmly, "There are no accidents, it will all arrive in two and a half months." ”

"Two and a half months ......"

Dong Ku quickly calculated the time, two and a half months is April, and there are still two months before the civilization, that is to say, it is impossible to put all the equipment on in a short time, unless the ground is broken now, and the foundation of the base is watered now, otherwise after the factory is built, he will have to wait for the weapons he needs next year.

"Okay." Dong Ku summed up and said, "There is no problem with the time, after all, the transportation distance is here, and it is not easy to transport it in two and a half months." However, we have a small request, and we ask Mr. Christian to mediate. ”

"Request? Mr. Sato, you say. ”

"That's right, the Japanese have a hostile relationship with the weapons testing unit we funded, although your country can transport the equipment, but we are worried that the Japanese will do things on the way to land transportation, so we request that the land transportation and loading and unloading of the trucks will be sent by us, and the cost will also be borne by us, Mr. Christian, you see ......."

"Are you responsible for the handling costs?"

The shrewd Christian smelled a smell he liked: "It's not a big problem for you to load and unload with the car, but there is a premise, inspection, the Japanese still have to do it, after all, we are only transporting equipment, and we must not carry weapons and other war items, and your loading and unloading escorts are not allowed to carry weapons, otherwise, isn't this equivalent to our helping you transport weapons into the war zone?" ”

"This one does." Dong Ku said calmly, "Before our loading and unloading and escort personnel arrive in Shuangcheng, they will also enter our defense area on foot, and after the Japanese inspection, the train will enter the defense area under the care and inspection of our escort personnel, and then return empty, so that there will be a demilitarized zone, where both sides will be inspected to avoid any accidents, what do you think, Mr. Christian." ”

"Demilitarized buffer zone ......"

Christian groaned and said: "I think this plan is feasible, so I will ask Berlin to come forward and negotiate with the Japanese to set up a demilitarized zone, and after the equipment inspected by your side is confirmed that there are no weapons, I will enter your defense zone." ”

After a pause, Christian continued: "Mr. Sato, we are only responsible for the safety of the journey from Dalian to Harbin in a straight line, and if we enter the defense area of the advance army, we will complete the task, so after the inspection of both of you in the demilitarized zone is equivalent to our delivery, as long as the Japanese do not open fire, then it will be considered to have arrived at the destination, what do you think?" ”

"Only responsible for Harbin ......"

Dong Ku blinked, and immediately understood what Christian meant, so he nodded and responded: "The agreement between our company and your country is to transport it to Harbin, and your country is not responsible for other places, as long as there is no fighting on the way to Harbin in a straight line, and the Japanese do not shoot and fire, even if our transaction is completed, we will not mind and care about the battles in other places that are not within the scope of Harbin." ”

"Ha Lu Ha!"

Christian Ha Lang smiled, feeling that it was easy to talk to smart people, seeing that Dong Ku understood, he didn't mention it again, the two exchanged a few words, and after having a hearty lunch at Longxiang Hotel, they broke up and went their separate ways.

Christian was very interested in the land escort they were mentioned by Dong Ku, the cost of loading and unloading a large number of lathes and equipment was not a small amount, and as long as they did not carry guns and weapons, then there was no need to ask for instructions on this trivial matter, he could call the shots, and by the way, there was some extra money.

As for Dong Ku's calculations, it naturally goes without saying that he wants to hitchhike the technical personnel of Crescent Island and transport them to Harbin with the equipment.

Leaving the hotel, Dong Ku returned to the residence, took off his makeup, explained some precautions to the remaining Flying Tigers, and returned to the barracks.

It didn't take long for General Zhao to receive a telegram from Dong Ku.

"A ceasefire?"

General Zhao was a little confused with the message.

General Yang took the telegram and read it, but he didn't understand why the Japanese stopped attacking Harbin, which was unreasonable. After all, their "territory" has been seized, and they should be brewing an attack when they have tested the firepower, so how can there be a ceasefire?

He not only purchased a large number of lathes and equipment from Germany, but also invited Germany to be a peacemaker, so that Harbin would be war-free for at least three months.

Dong Ku's telegram was not to show off the armistice in Harbin, but to tell General Zhao that an armistice agreement had been reached with the Japanese army in Harbin within three months, but the pressure was all transferred to Qiqihar, so that General Zhao's pressure would be great, and what he could do was to transport a hundred long-range artillery pieces and enough guns and ammunition to support him to hold his position within half a month, so that General Zhao could seize the time to expand the armament war, and I am afraid that the battle would break out in a few days.

After sending the telegram, Dong Ku went to Liu Chengcheng's office, told him about the truce with the Japanese army, and said his thoughts in the light of Liu Chengcheng's eyes.

You're saying that you can start building those facilities now?

Liu was surprised. It's winter, the permafrost has reached two meters, and the temperature outside is at least 35 degrees Celsius. (To be continued......)
