Voices in Russia denouncing the "treasonous separatism" of the Far Eastern republics and the Siberian republics have come and gone, but Yeltsin did not make the mistake of being rash, after all, both Novorzlov and Yankov have powerful armies in their hands, and even nuclear weapons, and the consequences of any rash move are very likely to be catastrophic.

Because of the sabotage of Novozlov and Yankov, the republics were not even interested in discussing the issue of the "new alliance" with Russia, in fact, even Yeltsin himself had no intention of establishing a new Soviet Union, and Nazarbayev, who was the main promoter of this matter, was also instructed by Qi Yiming to stop maintaining the Soviet Union, and finally held a political meeting in Novoogarivo, the main content of the negotiations was how to divide up the huge wealth left by the Soviet Union.

On a series of issues such as currency, economy, infrastructure, and state-owned enterprises, Yeltsin chose to make full concessions to the union republics, but he insisted on one thing, that is, to regain the military strength of these countries. Of course, countries such as Ukraine and Kazakhstan have a large number of Soviet troops stationed and have a large amount of equipment for the Soviet army, but they also have their own national defense missions, and they cannot just hand them over to Russia casually.

After all, the national secession crisis faced by Russia has nothing to do with Ukraine, Belarus and other countries, and everyone is now a sovereign and independent country, and it is no longer the responsibility to worry about Russia's family affairs.

Thanks to Yeltsin's vigorous mediation and exchange of interests, some republics were willing to transfer some of their units and equipment back to the Russian army. Ukraine took over 3 military districts in its jurisdiction: the Kiev Military District, the Odessa Military District and the Carpathian Military District, totaling 38. 70,000 troops, but under Yeltsin's exchange, he agreed to release nearly 80,000 troops, which were mainly ground troops and also carried a lot of equipment, which could be regarded as a shot in the arm for Yeltsin, who was now short of major generals.

The Belarusian armed forces have 3,457 tanks, 3,824 armored combat vehicles, 1,562 artillery pieces, 390 fixed-wing fighters, 79 helicopter gunships, and a total strength of 23. 80,000 people. After some negotiation and struggle, Russia got back about 40,000 people and related weapons and equipment.

Then there are Azerbaijan, Armenia, Moldova and other countries that have provided the Russian army with a variety of troops, but they are far less large than those provided by Ukraine and Belarus. Ukraine will not keep weapons such as strategic bombers, so it has also exchanged economic conditions for Russia in disguise. As for the issue of nuclear weapons, we did not talk about it this time, but Ukraine can basically only hand over nuclear weapons to Russia. On the contrary, the Russians are very worried about Nazarbayev, because Kazakhstan inherited about 7 years from the Soviet Union. The fact that 6% of nuclear weapons have not been mentioned until now makes the Yeltsins have to worry.

Of course, what they are most worried about now is the two split republics, the Far East and Siberia, which have also deployed a large number of nuclear weapons, and even the combined number is basically comparable to the number of nuclear weapons in the areas controlled by the Russian Federation. Obviously, if it comes to a certain point, the "rebels" may use nuclear weapons in a desperate situation, guaranteeing mutual destruction. This was also Yeltsin's greatest scruples, and if Yankov and Novozlov had not had nuclear weapons, his decision would have been easier to make.

Yeltsin fought for the most in Ukraine's hands, and one of the key points was the ships of the Black Sea Fleet. It's just that neither of these countries expected a problem, their poor economy made it so that although they inherited a lot of equipment, they could only watch a lot of things rot there and no longer be used.

In fact, it is not only Russia that has taken a fancy to Ukraine's equipment, but China also has ideas about something. A team of agents of the Strategy Bureau under the leadership of Qi Yiming is planning and operating the acquisition of two relatively large things. These two things are - the Varyag aircraft carrier and the Ulyanovsk aircraft carrier.

The hulls of the former have been largely built, while the latter has only about thirty percent of the construction. Ordinary military fans know the end of these two aircraft carriers, the Varyag came to China after many years of silence, and was remodeled to become China's first aircraft carrier Liaoning; However, the Ulyanovsk was used by Western countries to instigate the shipyard to dismantle it and sell scrap iron in the name of a leather bag company.

Frankly speaking, with a base shipyard and a monthly production capacity of 300,000 tons, if Qi Yiming really wants to plan for aircraft carriers, he can build as many as 45 aircraft carriers a year. Moreover, the Type 002 aircraft carrier is a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, with a displacement of 80,000 tons, with catapults and various relatively mature technologies and applications, which is still much stronger than the Soviet Union's somewhat immature aircraft carrier. But as a military fan of later generations, getting the Varyag and transforming it into a hybrid aircraft carrier and renaming it the Liaoning is like a mission that needs to be completed. And the tragedy of the Ulyanovsk, if it can be avoided, Qi Yiming can get an 80,000-ton hull, and after domestic modification, he can also gallop the ocean for PLA like the Type 002 aircraft carrier.

Moreover, the modification of aircraft carriers is also extremely helpful for improving the level of shipyards and increasing the Navy's understanding of Soviet-style ships.

Here I have to mention the Kiev-class aircraft carrier of the upper stage of the Soviet Union, this aircraft carrier is probably more suitable to be called an aviation cruiser, and it can only take off and land STOVL fighters, which seems a bit nondescript. In fact, it is not impossible to change this kind of ship to create an amphibious assault ship, the tonnage is not small, and there is a lot of space. It's just that Qi Yiming didn't have any goals for a while, two of the four ships were in Russia, and two of them were actually in the Pacific Fleet, that is, they belonged to the Navy of the Far Eastern Republic, Qi Yiming didn't plan to get it from the Far Eastern Republic again, after all, he didn't really lack shipbuilding capabilities.

At this time, Qi Yiming has not yet started the project of directly obtaining the Varyag and Ulyanovsk, because it is not yet the time for Ukraine to be the most embarrassed, and it is very likely that it will be opened by the lion if it is so obvious that it will be opened by the lion. On the other hand, China itself has no shortage of aircraft carriers and amphibious ships, so I hope there is no rush in this kind of thing.

Yeltsin, who was slow to collect military power from the republics, did not attack the two secessionists quickly, and it seems that Yankov and Novozlov had made no more provocative moves since the declaration of independence. However, this did not make Yeltsin feel very relaxed, because the two army chiefs, Yankov and Novorzlov, began to honestly declare their program of governance and promulgated a series of measures to reform the socialist state.

Anyone who studies politics and ideology will be able to tell the word between the lines of the two countries' similar decrees – China. It is true that although the reform measures in Siberia and the Far East did not copy socialism with Chinese characteristics, they did seriously imitate or copy China's successful experience.

First of all, Siberia and the Far East strengthened the control of the CP, emphasized the leadership of the CP, and adhered to the Soviet system of unity of parliament and action. On the other hand, there is a political push for a more enlightened and open model, such as strengthening the authenticity and utility of the people's representative system, and guaranteeing people's rights and freedoms within a reasonable range. In fact, most residents are not interested in political content, they are more concerned about economic issues.

It can be said that in recent years, the Far Eastern Republic has basically turned a blind eye to the infiltration of China's economic power, so the ethnic Russians in the Far East have become very accustomed to this kind of life and think that there is nothing wrong with it. While maintaining the public ownership of the economy, ordinary people have the right to open private economic entities, and the market will lead the economic trend, which is open and flexible. It can be said that the Far East is just saying what it has already done.

The situation is not the same as that of Russia in the European part, because Qi Yiming infiltrated openly and secretly, so the economic situation in Siberia and the Far East is much stronger than in the European part, and the Siberian side may be slightly worse, but when Yankov announced his independence, a large number of products with Chinese labels torn off were distributed by the army to residents of major cities for free, and after only a week of declaring independence, the restructuring of the economy and enterprises has already begun, and people have obtained new jobs, so that they can directly get factory distribution" Military Ticket".

Because Yeltsin messed with Soviet banks, the ruble was taking a big dive, and Qi Yiming didn't have the heart to pay for Russia, so he forcibly issued a new proxy currency in Siberia and the Far East, that is, military tickets, under the guarantee of the army's repression and credibility. These military tickets can be exchanged directly for daily necessities and food from China in local shops, and they have stronger purchasing power than rubles, so they are also very popular with locals.

The industrial capacity of Siberia and the Far East is even stronger than that of many parts of China to a certain extent, and Qi Yiming took this opportunity to issue directly in the form of an executive order, through the hands of Yankov and Novozlov, in fact, to let these enterprises start to support Chinese enterprises. In this way, Qi Yiming can give full play to the advantages of China's local light industry, and then supply the two republics, and the heavy industry and resource extraction industry of the two republics can supplement the Chinese economy, and everyone is happy.

To Qi Yiming's great satisfaction, the two republics came under his control, which made him also collect a large amount of Soviet inheritance in disguise - in the aviation industry, he obtained the Komsomolsk Aircraft Factory, the Irkutsk Plant, and the Novosibirsk Plant; The shipyards include Amur Shipbuilding, Komsomolsk Submarine Factory; For the army, there is the Omsk Transport Machine Building Plant and so on. Not to mention the nuclear industry, the aerospace industry, etc. Almost all of the military manufacturing options owned by the Soviet Union were taken over by Qi Yiming.

On the other hand, the Su-27 and Su-30, which are mainly supplied to China, are made in Komsomolsk, and now Qi Yiming has no problem if he wants to build some Sukhoi fighters to play with, or sell them. Qi Yiming even considered whether to take out the J-16 and put it under the name of Gongqingcheng Factory's production for his own use or export.
