On 23 July, the members of the League of Nations voted in Geneva to adopt a resolution on sanctions against the Soviet Union. The sanctions consisted mainly of three elements: the removal of the Soviet Union from the League of Nations membership, the trade embargo, and the freezing of overseas assets. In addition, the International Tribunal in The Hague issued arrest warrants for Stalin and more than a dozen senior Soviet military and political officials on several charges, including "causing famine," "massacre," "genocide," and "starting a war."

The first was simple, the expulsion of the USSR from the League of Nations. The second embargo covers everything but essential humanitarian supplies, such as food and medicine. Most of the industrial products, raw materials for the manufacture of weapons, chemicals, as well as coal, oil, ores, and everything else, closed the door to the Soviet Union. The third item of the overseas assets freeze means that if the Soviet Union has any assets in the member countries of the League of Nations, including deposits, investments, creditor's rights, etc., the member countries of the League of Nations must freeze them.

This blow to the Soviet Union was too great. The Soviet Union's ability to sustain the war was cut in at least half. Although the Soviet Union is vast and rich in natural resources, and most of the natural war materials, such as oil and minerals, can be produced by itself, the Soviet Union's industrial science and technology level is not high, and many semi-finished raw materials and many finished products needed by the military industry need to be imported. Now, that door is closed. In addition, the Soviet Union had a lot of gold abroad, and it also held a lot of foreign bonds, as well as foreign currency – that is, foreign banknotes. Now, the gold is not allowed to be withdrawn, the bonds are not exchanged, and even hundreds of tons of dollars, pounds, and francs are in hand...... It was also unable to spend it because of the trade embargo, and it became waste paper in his hands. In a short time, the operation of the Soviet war machine became very difficult. After a short period of deliberation, Stalin decided to abandon Spain. He terminated aid to the Spanish Left and recalled the pilots, instructors, advisers, and all the "volunteer fighters" sent to Spain. Soon, the Franco army, the armed force of the Spanish right, regained the initiative on the battlefield and began to win one victory after another. Poor Spain, lacking a moderate middle class and democrats, is doomed to struggle between the far left and the far right. Now, even if they have escaped the fate of being Bolshevikized, they will not escape the fate of being fascist.

Xiang Xiaoqiang and Zhu Yourong moved to Dihua and stayed in this mansion in the north and south. At this time, the Ming army had already occupied the Kashgar region in southern Xinjiang and blocked the mountain roads of the Pamir Plateau in the west, and the Soviet troops of Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan could no longer increase their troops to southern Xinjiang through here. Southern Xinjiang has become a closed battlefield. The remnants of about 200,000 Soviet troops had retreated south to the Hotan region. The Hotan region is bounded by the vast Taklamakan Desert to the north and east, the impenetrable Kunlun Mountains and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to the south, and the Ming army that followed closely behind it to the west. It can be said that it is only a matter of time before the 200,000 Soviet troops in southern Xinjiang are annihilated. And in northern Xinjiang, the Soviet army is still increasing its troops. Although the northern Xinjiang is also surrounded by mountains, the Altai Mountains on the back and the Tianshan Mountains in the south are closed and difficult to cross, and the mountains on the east and west are not so closed, they are intermittent, and the height and scale are not as good as the two large mountain ranges in the north and south. To the east of northern Xinjiang is Inner and Outer Mongolia, which is controlled by the Ming army, but it is nothing. The key is that the west leads to Kazakhstan, and it is from this direction that the Soviet army constantly transfers troops to the north.

The current approach of the Ming army is to besiege the 200,000 Soviet troops in the Hotan area without attacking them, and to keep an eye on the direction of the Pamir Plateau and the road on the edge of the desert, so that the 200,000 Soviet troops can be trapped in the Hotan area. At the same time, in northern Xinjiang, the Ming army had controlled the entire southern area from Dihua and Changji to the southwestern tip of Aibi Lake, while the main forces of the Soviet army were entrenched in the Tacheng and Altay regions in the north, separated by the entire Jungar Basin, and in the middle of the basin was the Gurbantunggut Desert. The two sides are now fighting and fighting on the edge of the desert, along the road.

The situation in northern Xinjiang seems to have returned to the time when the Ming army came to crusade against the "Ili Empire" in Erdun Mutu last spring. At that time, as now, the Ming army controlled the southern side of the desert, Erdun Mutu controlled the northern side of northern Xinjiang, and the Ming army attacked north along the road at the edge of the desert.

Now, the "Ili Empire" has become the "Ili Kingdom", and the "monarch" has also changed from Erdun Mutu to the former Northern Qing Emperor Guangwu. However, the capital of the "Ili Kingdom" is still the city of Altay in the north. These days, as the war between the Ming army in the north and south of Xinjiang is getting smoother and smoother, and the recovery of the whole of Xinjiang is just around the corner, Xiang Xiaoqiang is becoming more and more happy. He estimated that Guangwu must be extremely hot at this time. He became the emperor in the Northern Qing Dynasty and died once. Now that he is the king of the Ili Kingdom, he is about to die again. Died twice in two years, and everyone wanted to find a piece of tofu to die.

Although it was only a matter of time before the Ming army occupied Altay, neither Xiang Xiaoqiang nor Zhu Yourong had any expectations of catching Guangwu. Altay is so close to both Russia and Kazakhstan that he said he would pick it up. Even if the Ming army attacked quickly and surrounded Altay on all sides before the Soviet army reacted, it would be a matter of one plane to pick up a few people.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yourong and Xiang Xiaoqiang both felt very regretful. In the more than a year since the liberation of the north, the various tyranny of the Northern Qing Dynasty, especially the traces of tyranny left by the Guangwu dynasty, are shocking everywhere. The names of those who were slaughtered to suppress the rebellion alone are now more than 50,000. This was only from the end of '35 to the first half of '37, which was killed in just over a year. There may be many more people whose names cannot even be found, which is probably a terrible number added up. Although Guangwu did not kill as many people in a year as Stalin killed in a day, it was enough to define Guangwu as a "tyrant".

It would certainly be ideal if Guangwu could stand in court and then be executed in public. But at present, it seems that the possibility of capturing Guangwu alive is very small. If it is said that the Soviet Union will hand over Guangwu to the Ming Dynasty, then it is probably impossible not to beat the Soviet Union to the point of kneeling and begging for mercy. Otherwise, the Soviet Union would definitely prefer to keep Guangwu and let him establish a government-in-exile in the Soviet Union, constantly disgusting the Ming Dynasty. And everyone knows that in a country at the level of the Ming Dynasty and the Soviet Union, it is very unlikely that anyone will beat anyone to their knees and beg for mercy.

Therefore, after discussing with Zhu Yourong, Xiang Xiaoqiang began to formulate a plan to kidnap or assassinate Guangwu. If you can kidnap the best, if you can't kidnap it, then kill it. The kidnapping or assassination of a "foreign national dollar" is a very difficult goal, which requires the close cooperation and sincere cooperation of various special intelligence agencies of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, there are restrictions on time and place, and it must be started while Guangwu is still in northern Xinjiang. If he had been taken to the Soviet Union, it would have been too late. The Soviet Union was a tight-knit police state, and it was harder to do something than to climb to the sky. It's hard to start, and it's even harder to get out after you get it.

As the Ming army continued to advance and move closer to Altay, Guangwu was more likely to flee to the Soviet Union with each passing day. However, the military operation to recover northern Xinjiang came first, and it was impossible to slow down the entire military offensive in order to create conditions for the assassination or kidnapping of Guangwu.

On July 3o, Dongchang and the People's Guard each transferred a group of backbones, chartered three large planes, and secretly flew to Dihua. They come to the site and make plans nearby. These people are not ordinary agents, but middle and high-level personnel from the two departments. The deputy directors and several directors of the two bureaus came to Dongchang, and the People's Guard came with a stomachache, Fourteen Gege and Xiuxiu, and Qiu Yu also took the opportunity to follow. The three ladies were elated, and they could not contain the joy in their hearts. Especially Fourteen Gege and Xiuxiu, who usually look at each other unpleasantly, are almost good sisters now, talking and laughing on the plane, and being intimate is not good.

From the end of April to the end of July, Xiang Xiaoqiang has been away for three months. These three ladies have been "idle" at home for three months, and they have long been looking forward to the northwest side, and they are dreaming of returning to Xiaoqiang. But now that the war between the two regions is going well, the outside world is speculating that the empress and the prince will at least have to wait until the two regions are completely recovered before returning. I don't know how long it will take. A month, two months, three months, it's all possible. For a war, of course, this is not a long time. But for three young ladies in their prime, that was too long.

Well, now, although Xiang Xiaoqiang won't come back, they can go to him justifiably.
