Inside the carriage, looking at the Elaline people who were chatting there and taking care of Yan Xiaoyu by the way, Yan Shao smiled at them. "You guys talk here first, I'll go out first, and talk to Songpa about some business..."

"Hmm." Elaline nodded, then said softly. "Then you go out first..."

As for Katerina, she was more direct, just waved her hand, and looked like you were disappearing quickly.

Yan Shao was naturally a little shocked by this, but fortunately, Lu Ying and Otsuki Kaoru's gentleness soon gave him some comfort. So after waving his hand at these people, Yan Shao closed the door of the carriage, and then walked towards the other carriage with Jiang Baili, who was standing not far away.

There, several high-ranking generals, including Liu Guangyuan and Xiang Xinyuan, had been waiting for a long time. Seeing that Yan Shao and Jiang Baili had arrived, he hurriedly turned his gaze.

"The President..."

"The Great President..."

"Yes." Yan Shao nodded at them. "Sit down, sit down." Saying that, Yan Shao found a place for himself first, and then said to the waiter on the side. "Please bring me a glass of frozen juice..."

"Okay," the waiter nodded slightly.

The train did not belong to China, nor to the Communist government, so the people who fell from above, except for some safe positions, were almost all from the French side. However, Yan Shao is also famous for liking to drink fruit juice, so the French government has been prepared for a long time, so the waiter quickly got the drink that Yan Shao needed, naturally, including what Jiang Baili needed...

But now is an important meeting. So Jiang Baili didn't drink alcohol, but just got some tea or coffee, and one even asked for a juice like Yan Shao. It's just that it's not frozen―――――― after all, not everyone can dare to drink frozen drinks in winter like Yan Shao...

And after the waiter put down his things and turned to leave, he looked at Jiang Baili and the others, and said solemnly. "Okay, the people have arrived, the things have arrived, let's get down to business..."

Saying that, Yan Shao looked at Jiang Baili. As the commander of the expeditionary force, he was naturally the one who knew the most about all the circumstances.

"It's okay." Seeing Yan Shao looking over, Jiang Baili nodded first. "After the end of the war. The expeditionary force is no longer on combat duty, and is now resting at the front and near Paris, and is now awaiting orders from home to withdraw at any time. In fact, because of a variety of concerns. The French government has asked when we will be able to return home. I believe that China should understand this..."

"That's right." Yan Shao nodded, and at this time, Gu Weijun on the side also nodded. "After the war, the French government did ask us when we would be able to withdraw the expeditionary force back home. Minister Kopa looked a little stumbling, as if there was something else going on in it..."

For such an important international conference, of course, it is impossible for Yan Shao to come alone, after all, Yan Shao does not know much about diplomatic matters, so it has become a relatively normal thing for Gu Weijun, the foreign minister, to come along...

At least in some things. Gu Weijun can be a staff officer for Yan Shao or something...

――――――――――――――――――――――

"About this matter..."Glancing at Jiang Baili and them, Yan Shao pondered for a while and then explained. You know the strategy of westward expansion very well. Because of the civil strife in Russia, and a series of other reasons, General Cai Yi acted very smoothly, and easily captured Yekaterinburg, dividing the whole of Russia into two halves, and then we only need to settle those villages and towns in Siberia that do not want to submit, then two-thirds of the territory of Russia is equal to ours..."

Hearing Yan Shao say this, the others bowed slightly.

As the most successful strategic operation in modern history, everyone present naturally knows about the westward expansion strategy, and similarly, the people present are also a little envious and jealous of Cai Ye, who commanded this operation.

After all, because of this operation, China's territory has almost tripled, and such a successful military operation will surely go down in history for future generations to admire, coupled with a series of exploits made by Cai Ye in Europe, it can be said that Cai Ye has become a real famous general, and I am afraid that there is no one in the domestic military circles who will have a higher reputation than him...

And these are undoubtedly what everyone craves...

Therefore, seeing Cai Ye have such a great achievement, the people present will naturally feel a little envious and jealous.

In fact, not only the people here, but even Jiang Baili had some in his heart, after all, he was also an ordinary person with a mortal body, and his friend had made such a great achievement, it was impossible for him not to feel it at all in his heart. However, he also knew very well that if he was in command, this strategy might not be so smooth, after all, he had too little actual combat experience, especially in logistics...

And this strategy, the most important thing is not military, but logistics, etc., so he is naturally not as suitable for this mission as Cai Yi, who has been honing himself on the front line...

On the other hand, seeing that everyone was listening carefully to what he was saying, Yan Shao continued.

"It is precisely because of this relationship that the great powers are somewhat hostile to our country in this matter, of course, these are not important, the point is that some guys with problems in their heads actually plan to take our expeditionary force in France hostage, in order to blackmail us to withdraw from Russia..."

Hearing Yan Shao say this, several people showed surprised expressions, Jiang Baili was also slightly surprised, he hadn't heard of this kind of statement, but most of the time he scoffed at it, after all, such a big thing is definitely not something that can be done by just talking about it, not to mention that the number of expeditionary forces in Europe is more than 600,000, these more than 600,000 people are not more than 600,000 pigs, and the gun in his hand is not a toy, is it difficult to let you detain it?

If it was a face-to-face hard fight, with the same number, Jiang Baili believed that the expeditionary force under his command would definitely not be inferior to the troops of any country on the Western Front. The facts also proved Jiang Baili's judgment, of course. Britain and the United States and other countries were very annoyed by Yan Shao's behavior, but they never thought of doing so.

And looking at Yan Shao's appearance now, this incident does not seem to be just an ordinary rumor. This made Jiang Baili a little surprised.

Seeing Jiang Baili's appearance, Yan Shao smiled with some disdain. "There will always be some self-righteous people in this world, and it's not surprising that such a thing would happen. In fact, because of this war, Britain and France and other countries suffered heavy losses but gained nothing, and we will naturally have many people blushing when we get such a big benefit at one time, so naturally some people will propose such a brainless method. Of course, not all of them want us to withdraw from Siberia, and some of them want to get a piece of the pie. There were British, Americans, and even French, and the French government was under some pressure. That's why we put forward the argument that we should withdraw to the country as much as possible. In this way, there will naturally be nothing..."

"So the U.S. government is quite interesting..."

"Is it okay to be unrealistic..."Yan Shao sneered. At present, the armistice agreement has been signed, but the armies of the Germans and the French are still facing each other on the front line, and the front line is still in the territory of northern France. By that time......... Would the Germans let go of such a great opportunity because of an armistice agreement? ”

"What's more, our troops are now withdrawing in the direction of Paris. And it's already withdrawn a lot, if you really make a rash move, not to mention anything else, you should still have the ability to turn Paris into ruins..."Saying that, Yan Shao looked at Liu Guangyuan and the others.

Hearing Yan Shao say this, Liu Guangyuan and the others immediately patted their chests and said. "Please rest assured, as long as those French dare to play yin, nothing else dares to guarantee that the ability to turn Paris into ruins is still there."

That's it, although some people with problems in their heads want to take the troops in France as hostages and then blackmail the Nationalist government with something, it is obvious that the French government cannot be so whimsical.

It's just that in today's Entente countries, there are still too many countries that are jealous of China's harvest this time, so in the end, there is no way, forced by the continuous pressure at home, the French government can only find a way to let the expeditionary force leave France and return to the country as soon as possible, so that naturally there will be no problem―――――― anyway, now that the armistice agreement has been signed, basically there will be no big problem, even if the Germans suddenly attack after the expeditionary force leaves, the big deal is to continue fighting.

They had not been able to destroy France in a year, and they certainly could not have done it in a month.

――――――――――――――――――――

"In that case, President, shall we withdraw back to the country?"

"Of course—" Yan Shao nodded. Anyway, it won't be of much use for you to stay in France, so you might as well just go back to China. And because of the Russian affairs, Britain and the United States have cut off their financial aid to us, although they also bear part of your expenses in Europe, but hundreds of thousands of troops to stay in Europe is still a lot of pressure on the country after all, so it is better to leave as soon as possible―――――― in fact, if the Germans suddenly attack after you leave, I will be happier..."

Of course, Jiang Baili and they knew what Yan Shao was happy about, and they were naturally happy that the great powers had started killing each other again, and if they started fighting again, they could temporarily put down the affairs of the Russian side, but Jiang Baili also knew very well that this was just their delusion.

Not only because both sides are exhausted, but also because with the emergence of the threat of Soviet Russia, both the Entente and the Central Powers have focused on Soviet Russia. At least until the problem of Soviet Russia is resolved, it is unlikely that they will kill each other again...

Historically, the reason why the Entente supported Germany to restore its economy was out of consideration for guarding against Soviet Russia. As a result, what they got was a new round of revenge.

Yes, Germany did clean up Soviet Russia, but Britain and France did not escape this catastrophe, and in the end it was only the United States that benefited...

With this revenge of Germany, the United States finally became the hegemon of the world...

――――――――――――――――――――――

The train traveled on the tracks for a long time before it reached Paris.

As one of the main members of the Entente, Yan Shao naturally received a grand welcome ceremony, especially after many Chinese workers working in China participated in this welcome ceremony, and the scene was even more grand.

However, Yan Shao had already seen a lot of such a scene when he was in China, so there was no special reaction, and the appearance of Ileno and others was even more generous and decent, even Fumiko, as for the youngest Yan Xiaoyu...

At this moment, this young 'eldest princess' is under the close protection of the guards, at the very end of the train. No way, for a baby, any request is obviously unrealistic, if in the face of such a huge welcome ceremony, Yan Shao's only daughter suddenly cried, it seems to be some...

So I'd better put her up for now, so it seems safe...

On the other hand, looking at Yan Shao and the others who came out of the train carriage, the officials from various countries who came to greet them also showed a smile on their faces.

Originally, they had planned not to show anyone to come, or to send some low-ranking officials to greet them, as a sign of dissatisfaction with China's occupation of Russian territory.

However, something happened not long ago that forced them to improve their attitude.

Not long ago, the Soviet Russian Red Army, which was in danger, suddenly broke out with a very strong combat effectiveness, successively defeating the intervention armies of the great powers and the white armies of Kolchak, Denikin and others.

As for the powers, they had to delay the timetable for the settlement of Soviet Russia a little...

At this time, China's attitude is more important, after all, China's army has already deployed troops and the Ural Mountains, if possible, China can send more than 100,000 troops to directly attack Soviet Russia...

Even if you can't send troops directly, you can give some support to the White Army led by Kolchak, after all, they are in the rear of Kolchak...

Therefore, even if the hearts of the great powers are not willing at this time, they can only express their friendliness. Naturally, while expressing friendliness, they are probably swearing in their hearts that when the problem of Soviet Russia is solved, they must give Yan Shao a good look...

And Yan Shao naturally knows this... (To be continued......)
