Russia has always been the country that has invaded the most Chinese territory, and since the Treaty of Nebuchu more than 200 years ago, China has gradually lost its northern territory. Moreover, the Russians have always been ambitious to establish a yellow Russia in northern China, which shows the ambition of the Russians.

On September 7, 1689 (the 27th year of Kangxi), about 250,000 square kilometers of land west of the Xing'an Mountains and the Erguna River were lost after the signing of the Treaty of Nebuchu.

On October 21, 1727 (the fifth year of the Yongzheng Dynasty), about 100,000 square kilometers of land south and southwest of Lake Baikal were forced to sign the Treaty of Kyakhta and were lost.

In 1790 (the 55th year of Qianlong), about 100,000 square kilometers of Kuye Island was secretly annexed by the Russian Empire.

In 1840 (the twentieth year of Daoguang), the state of Kazakh, which was originally a part of our country, was invaded and annexed by the Russian Empire, and the state covered an area of about one million square kilometers.

In 1840 (the 20th year of Daoguang), it was originally our subordinate Bangbrut, with an area of about 100,000 square kilometers, which was annexed by the Russian Empire.

On May 28, 1858 (the eighth year of Xianfeng), the vast area west of the Tongjiang River, north of the Heilongjiang River, and south of the Outer Xing'an Mountains, with an area of about 460,000 square kilometers, was invaded by the Russian Empire, and the Qing court was forced to sign the "Aihui Treaty" to recognize it.

On November 14, 1860 (the 10th year of Xianfeng), about 430,000 square kilometers of land near Xingkai Lake east of the Tongjiang River and the Ussuri River were invaded by the Russian Empire, and the Qing court was later forced to sign the "Beijing Treaty" to recognize it.

After 1864 (the third year of Tongzhi), the Russian Empire forced the Qing court to conclude the "Tacheng Boundary Treaty" and other boundary treaties to recognize about 430,000 square kilometers of land from Shazhuda Baha to the Green Mountains.

In 1868 (the seventh year of Tongzhi), about one million square kilometers of our country belonged to the Bangbukhar Khanate. Annexed by the Russian Empire.

In 1876 (the second year of Guangxu), it was originally a state of Kokand belonging to our country, with an area of about 350,000 square kilometers, which was annexed by the Russian Empire.

In 1881 (the seventh year of Guangxu), from the yin of the Tianshan Mountains in the southwest of Ili, from the Nama Halek Pass to the northwest of Ili, Karda. About 20,000 square kilometers of land were lost by the Russian Empire when the Qing court forced the Qing court to conclude the Treaty of Ili.

In 1883 (the ninth year of Guangxu), about 20,000 square kilometers of land near the Irtysh River and Zaisangbo were lost when the Russian Empire forced the signing of the "Treaty of Kobdo Tar Bahatai".

In 1895 (the 21st year of Guangxu), the Pamir region in the extreme west of Xinjiang Province, about 10,000 square kilometers of land, was divided between the Russian Empire and the British.

In 1900, Tsar Nicholas II came to power. Troops were sent to invade and occupy 64 tuns (3,600 square kilometers) in Jiangdong, and more than 6,000 Chinese residents were killed.

Taken together, these territories alone represent more than four million square kilometres. Even excluding the vassal states of Central Asia, the territory of China, which the Russians directly seized from the Manchus, amounted to more than 1.8 million square kilometers. Although, these territories all seem to be barren and uninhabited. However, Wu Haoxuan knew that there were abundant natural resources buried under these territories. Even if you don't have the ability to mine it now, you can leave it to future generations. Later generations of Russia. In the face of an extreme economic crisis, will it not take long to survive by selling the resources of these places? Wu Haoxuan has returned to this era. Naturally, he will not watch these territories being taken away by Lao Maozi again, and he will take them back if he says anything.

Wu Haoxuan's telegram to Wu Xingquan and Yang Du demanded that the Russians return the territories of China that had been forcibly occupied since the signing of the Treaty of Nebuchu. Even Central Asia is too far away from the Northern Army to be affected for a while. However, the Far East and Eastern Siberia must be recovered. These territories add up. It's also more than a million square kilometers! Although, the climate is a little colder. But the land is fertile, and there are absolutely no problems at all for tens of millions or even more people to immigrate.

In addition to this, didn't Lao Maozi ask the northern government to compensate them with a billion rubles in war reparations? The same. The northern government also wants to go to Lao Maozi to compensate one billion oceans of war reparations. The war was fought in the Mongolian steppes, which undoubtedly caused great property damage to the northern government.

Of course, Wu Haoxuan also knew that the arrogant old Maozi would never agree to such conditions. There is a high probability that the talks between the two sides will collapse. Britain and France, although intervening, may also exert pressure on the northern government. But is it necessary to worry about the Northern Army, which has already achieved absolute superiority on the battlefield?

Wu Haoxuan asked Yang Du to contact the US Minister to China, Rou Keyi, and the German Minister to China, Hahausen, to ask for their help. Americans may have some caution. But the Germans will certainly help the government in the north. The Germans wished that the war would continue forever and that it would weaken Russia as much as possible. In this way, Germany will be under much less pressure in the future.

If the Germans had intervened, Britain and France would not have persecuted them too much. After all, once the northern government completely fell to Germany, it would not benefit Britain and France at all.

After Wu Haoxuan dealt with this, he also decided to return to Shengjing after dealing with the Russian army in Kulun. Now, the Russian army is extremely empty in the entire region of Eastern Siberia, and there are not many troops left, except for the 200,000 Russian troops surrounded under the city of Kulen. The Northern Army is advancing towards Eastern Siberia to regain its former homeland.

After getting Wu Haoxuan's instructions, Yang Du finally understood what to do. On the one hand, he reported to Wu Xingquan, and on the other hand, he sent people to do what Wu Haoxuan requested.

"Tsk, that kid Haoxuan, he really has a big appetite! According to what he said, if Lao Maozi is asked to return all those territories to us, it will be more than 4 million square kilometers! Even excluding Central Asia, there are more than a million square kilometers. It's just a pity that these territories are barren lands. Wu Xingquan said with a smile.

"The young marshal must have thought it out when he did this. However, Lao Maozi will definitely not accept our conditions. There is a high possibility that the talks will collapse. Yang Du said.

"Talk about collapse, talk about collapse, there is nothing to be afraid of. Anyway, in this war, we have the advantage. Moreover, if the Americans and Germans were on our side, we would not have to worry about the British and French putting pressure on us. By the way, what did the American minister and the German minister say? Wu Xingquan asked.

"I've been in touch with them. Both Ministers Rouge and Hahausen said they would come overnight. They are expected to be there tomorrow afternoon. Yang Du said.

"Well, that's good. When I see when Lao Maozi can still be rampant! Wu Xingquan finally put his mind at ease.

"By the way, when will Haoxuan come back?" Wu Xingquan asked.

The young marshal said that he would come back after dealing with the 200,000 Russian troops under the city of Kulen. Those Russian troops are already on the verge of running out of ammunition and food, and it is estimated that they will be dealt with soon. Yang Du replied.

"Hmm!" Wu Xingquan nodded. He wasn't good at dealing with foreigners. After Wu Haoxuan came back, he could hand these over to Wu Haoxuan.

Wu Xingquan was originally a person who had no ambitions and was greedy for pleasure. Since his son has outstanding ability, he simply let go of power. What's more, Wu Xingquan also knew that he was able to have such a status entirely because of Wu Haoxuan. Wu Haoxuan was his only son, so he naturally believed it completely.

On the morning of the next day, the British Minister to China, Sir Jurdian, the French Minister to China, Pasteur, and the Russian Minister to China, Ronso Victor, once again came to the Northeast to tour the embassy and conduct negotiations.

"Your Excellency, after our persuasion, the Russian side has agreed to lower some of the demands." Sir Jurdian said with a smile. It's just that his smile seems a little reluctant. Clearly, the Russians, even if they promised to make concessions, had very little to offer.

"Oh? Your Excellency, I wonder what the new demands of the Russian side are? Wu Xingquan asked.

Sir Jurdians looked at Minister Ronsovic and asked him to answer.

"In view of the friendship between our two countries, we have decided to lower some of the requirements. First of all, the Northern Army must withdraw from the territory of the Russian Empire, and this is the basis and nothing will change. In addition, the losses caused by the Northern Army to the Russian Empire must be compensated. However, we can promise that the indemnity will be reduced from one billion rubles to eight hundred million rubles. That's our bottom line! After Minister Lang Suoweici finished speaking, he stared at Wu Xingquan, expecting his answer.

Wu Xingquan was stunned, Lao Maozi is just a demand for war reparations of 200 million rubles, is it a concession? Isn't this the same as the previous requirements, nothing has changed?

"Ahem, I really don't see any concessions from the Russian side. So be it, since the Russian side has already put forward the conditions. In the same vein, our Government in the North has put forward conditions that we consider reasonable. Secretary-General, let's talk about our conditions. Wu Xingquan said.

"Yes, Dashuai!" Yang Du nodded.

"Ministers, this war is, in essence, a war provoked by the Russian Empire in order to invade China. Now, our army has won the war, but the Russian side has presented itself as the victor, which is unacceptable to us. If we want to end the war, Russia must agree to the following two conditions. First, Russia wants to return to us all the Chinese territories it has occupied since the signing of the Treaty of Nebuchu in 1689. Second, Russia must pay reparations to the governments of the North, totaling a billion oceans. Only then will we agree to end the war. Otherwise, the war will continue! Yang Du said coldly.
