The protagonist had already left, and Zhukov and the others did not stop in Ulaanbaatar, but left Ulaanbaatar under the escort of the guards and returned to the temporary headquarters of the Soviet-Mongolian coalition army.

I didn't have much feeling in my heart about leaving Ulaanbaatar Zhukov, but I felt a lot of emotion for Choibalshan, who followed Zhukov. As the chairman of the Joint Conference of the 108 Banners of Outer Mongolia and the commander-in-chief of the Mongolian People's Army, Choibalshan is the de facto ruler of more than 1.5 million square kilometers of land in Outer Mongolia.

But he didn't have anything to do, originally he was extremely confident in the hundreds of thousands of Mongolian People's Army under his command trained by the Soviet Union, after all, this army had performed remarkably in the past conflicts with Japan, even many senior officers of the Soviet Far Eastern Front gave high praise.

When the war first broke out, Choibalshan did not take Chen Feng's department seriously at all, and did not think that the Chinese warlord had the strength to compete with the Mongolian People's Army, let alone the hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of the Soviet Red Army behind the Mongolian People's Army. But the development of the war from the beginning of his prediction, the first battle of the Soviet-Mongolian coalition army lost 80,000 people, the second war Zamyn-Uud was quickly taken, and then the second battle Erdeni and Ergen were also lost, and then the most important gateway to the south of Ulaanbaatar, the capital of the central province Zonmod was conquered, tens of thousands of Soviet-Mongolian troops were annihilated, but the most depressed Choibalsan was the Battle of Ulaanbaatar, this battle he can be said to be full of confidence, you must know that they have an absolute advantage in terms of troops, The 3:1 ratio of forces led Choibalsan to believe that Ulaanbaatar was impregnable.

However, the facts gave him another hard slap. The impregnable Ulaanbaatar was held for less than ten days, and the powerful Soviet Red Army not only did not hold Ulaanbaatar, but was wiped out by a third by the Chinese, eventually causing him, the absolute leader of Mongolia, to be driven out of the capital, while the old thing of Battle occupied his original position.

Returning to the headquarters, Zhukov quickly reported to Moscow the contents of today's negotiations and waited for Comrade Stalin's instructions, after all, such a major decision involving the division of the country's territory must be decided by Comrade Stalin himself, and no one else has the right and does not dare to accept it on his behalf.

Although Comrade Stalin did not reply, Zhukov already had the answer in his heart. Whether Stalin volunteered or not. The end result must have been to agree to General Chen's terms. In the past, China's Chen would never have accepted such an unreasonable demand by the Soviet Union, let alone Comrade Stalin. Therefore, after Chen Feng put forward such harsh conditions at the beginning of today's talks, Zhukov planned to end the peace talks. Because he knew that no one would agree to such conditions. No further talk will lead to anything. It's better not to waste time, everyone is ready to keep fighting.

After all, in Zhukov's view, although the Soviet-Mongolian coalition forces were temporarily at an absolute disadvantage, they had also lost a lot of troops and weapons and equipment in the past month or so. However, high-ranking officers like him did not care much about the short-term war situation and the gains and losses of one city and one place, and what they valued was the war potential of both sides and the ability to fight for a long time, and Zhukov was still relatively confident in this regard.

The great Soviet Union has gone through so many ups and downs, and has fought with the major countries in the world in the world, either openly or covertly, and now it still stands among the great countries in the world, and has become the country with the largest land area in the world, and it is not afraid of any challenges at all. In particular, the victory in the Battle of Nomenkan strengthened Zhukov's belief in fighting, and he did not believe that Chen Feng's troops without oil sources could hold out for a month. Two months? Five months? It only lasted half a year, and after half a year, those advanced fighters and tanks all became scrap iron lumps, how to continue to fight with the great Soviet Union, so Zhukov was not afraid to continue to fight with Chen Feng's subordinates.

However, just when the negotiations were about to break down, his adjutant handed him an urgent piece of information, that the German envoy Delixi had arrived in Guisui the day before yesterday, and had talks with Chen Binggong, vice chairman of Saibei Province, as for the content of the talks between the two sides is not known for the time being, but the atmosphere of the talks between the two sides was very good.

At the same time, Japanese envoy Matsuda Getaro has also sent a request to the Saibei Provincial Government, hoping to visit Chen Feng, chairman of Saibei Provincial and commander of the Eighth Theater of Operations, as soon as possible.

Zhukov, who originally didn't believe Chen Feng very much, was stunned, it turned out that everything Chen Feng said before was true, Germany and Japan did have secret contact with him again, if the three of them reached some kind of agreement, it would be a lot of fun. Although the possibility of Chen Feng's troops reaching an agreement with the Japanese is almost zero, nothing in this world is absolute, let alone the relationship between countries, and nothing seems to be unbreakable in the face of interests.

As one of the few people in the Soviet Union, Zhukov was very worried about the actual situation of the Soviet Red Army at the moment, and that kind of second-rate combat effectiveness could bully and bully small Asian countries, and if he fought against the powerful German army, it would not be a star and a half, let alone a war with Germany, Japan, and China at the same time.

As a last resort, Zhukov had no choice but to continue the conversation with Chen Feng. However, Chen Feng is obviously not in the mood to fight with the Soviet Union, although it is said that China has a sky-high price to repay the money, and it is not indispensable to use it in negotiations, but Chen Feng is also full of confidence in the war with the Soviet Union.

So, as soon as the conditions are said, leave immediately, and promise to consider it yourself. I promised you, hello, I'm good, everyone, if you don't agree, then we'll continue to fight.

Zhukov believes that Moscow will definitely agree to Chen Feng's demands, in addition to the great danger facing the Soviet Union at present, and more importantly, in Zhukov's view, the conditions put forward by Chen Feng are not unacceptable, at least from Zhukov's point of view, these conditions are actually not difficult for the Soviet Union to accept.

First of all, there is the issue of Mongolia's survival, which is also a more important condition put forward by Chen Feng. Whether it was a protectorate of the Soviet Union or not, one thing is certain, and that is that Outer Mongolia was not yet Soviet territory. Since it is not the territory of the Soviet Union, then the Soviet Union has no reason to interfere in the direction of Mongolia, and if it were in peacetime, the Soviet Union might still show the demeanor of a big brother and help Mongolia get ahead. But now that the Soviet Union is under unprecedented threat, abandoning Outer Mongolia is completely understandable, and it is the only option for the Soviet Union.

There is also the Tangnu Ulianghai, which was not originally the territory of the Soviet Union, and the Tangnu Ulianghai was originally a part of Outer Mongolia, which was annexed by the Soviet Union when Outer Mongolia became independent. It is located in the northwest of Outer Mongolia, south of Siberia, north of the Sayan Mountains, south of the Tangnu Mountains, is located between the two mountains, a narrow strip of land, with a total area of about 170,000 square kilometers.

After the annexation of the Tannu-Ulianghai by the former Soviet Union, it was divided into three parts: the Republic of Tuva in the Russian Federation, the part west of the Republic of Tuva belonging to the Altai Republic, and the Mongolian province of Khuvsgul. However, since the latter two parts are in fact devoid of any trace of the Tangnu-Ulianghai region, the area commonly referred to as the Tangnu-Ulianghai region is essentially the Republic of Tuva of the Russian Federation. On December 28, 1916, as Russia was busy with the First World War, the Beiyang Government of the Republic of China decided to appoint Uriya Sutaizuo Commissioner to be in charge of the affairs of Tangnu Ulianghai and resume the exercise of sovereignty over the region. From 1918 to 1919, Tsarist Russia was overthrown, and the Beiyang Government of the Republic of China sent troops to expel the remnants of Tsarist Russia entrenched in the Tangnu Ulianghai area, and re-incorporated Tangnu Ulianghai into the Chinese territory. However, because of the constant civil war, China was lost again.

Up to now, the Soviet Union has only been here for more than ten years, and it is sparsely populated, and minerals and other materials are not very rich, so there is no pity to lose it.

The most important thing is that even if the Soviet Union now returns all the three to four million square kilometers of land that it has occupied from China, there will not be much opposition in the Soviet Union. On the one hand, because after the Great Purge, Stalin had established absolute ruling authority in the Soviet Union, and all those who dared to say "no" were all executed, and all those who dared to have reservations about the execution of the great Stalin's orders were partially executed, and the other part was exiled, so the current Soviet Union is Comrade Stalin's Soviet Union, as long as it is Comrade Stalin's order, everyone must carry it out unconditionally, and no one will dare to do anything without any uniformity.

In addition, the return of Chinese territory was also the last wish of Comrade Lenin, who said during his lifetime that he would return to the Asian people the Asian lands plundered by the Tsar, and he promised that when the Chinese revolution was successful, Mongolia would naturally become part of China. But after Lenin's death, Stalin completely reneged on Lenin's promise, killing a deputy minister of defense who had written about Lenin's speech, and then refusing to admit what Lenin had said.

These secrets are not known to most people, but as Stalin's right-hand man, Zhukov knows best. If it is really necessary to return these places to China, then Comrade Stalin completely puts the blame on Comrade Lenin, and he himself does not need to wade into this troubled water.

There is also the billion-dollar war reparations, although one billion dollars is a lot, but it is important to know that the benefits obtained by the Soviet Union and Chen Feng's department in the process of all-round transactions are far more than one billion dollars, and the order for warships alone exceeds several billion dollars, and it is not a big deal to compensate Chen Feng's department for one billion dollars, and the wool is out of the sheep.

And it is not difficult to cede the oil field, after all, from the discovery of the oil field to the construction of the Soviet Union almost did not invest half a ruble, but from there a lot of profits, for the sake of the country's security where to cede the land is not unacceptable. More importantly, the Tyumen oil fields are located in Siberia, far from the center of gravity of Chen Feng's rule, and as long as the great Soviet Union has overcome this current difficulty, it can be reclaimed at any time.

Zhukov's premonition was still very accurate, and at about five o'clock in the afternoon, a telegram was sent from the direction of Moscow, basically agreeing to the conditions put forward by Chen Feng, and the Soviets compromised. (To be continued......)
