Tower of Babel

Yang Yuting said: "Marshal, if the sky falls, there will be someone taller to hold it up. Although the 100,000 Japanese troops heading north were completely wiped out, there is still Korea and the Japanese mainland. However, I always feel that this Taoist master is not a great man, but rather a charlatan."

Tang Yinhuai said: "Why do you think so?"

Yang Yuting said: "Look at this notice, he was born in a Taoist family, is good at flying swords and wall-penetrating skills, aren't these all tricks of charlatans!"

Tang Yinhuai listened but didn't take it seriously and said: "So what? Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The White Lotus Sect and the Maitreya Sect have been doing this since ancient times! Gathering people with charlatan tricks After the gas is inflamed, as long as it is used properly, it can also stir up a storm. Didn't the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom do the same? Which of the famous generals Li Kaifang and Li Xiucheng is an easy person to deal with? Now that they have a general situation, these planes and tanks must be real, right? Heroes are not judged by their origins. " Zhang Zuolin nodded and said, "Although I know this may be a mantis trying to stop a chariot, I can't order the Northeast Army to be on alert and distribute ammunition without even a handy guy at the last moment. We don't care about the Russians accepting the railway, and we don't care how they deal with the Japanese, but if we have to, we have to die like men. "

"The Marshal is wise! ”

···

No one expected that the Soviet government would keep its promise and truly achieve no harm, but the Japanese expatriates suffered miserably and were severely punished. Wherever they passed, there was grief and sorrow. The entire Middle East Railway. Along the T-shaped route within 40 kilometers, every Japanese expatriate who did not escape was taken hostage.

The Japanese government became a turtle, burying its head in the sand like an ostrich, and treating everything as if it did not exist. It strictly blocked the news internally. It refused to admit or deny it or even talk about it externally. Everyone chose to forget it. The same was true for the British Empire. Imperialism acquiesced to all fait accompli, but did not compromise on anything. Whether you occupied Egypt or the canal, I would pass through if you let me pass, and if you didn't let me pass, I would go around the Cape of Good Hope. I didn't object to paying the shipping fee, but I imposed a trade embargo and a technology embargo on it.

The Soviet Union has made great achievements. Although the Soviet Union won a military victory, the diplomatic situation was not good. Under Churchill's Iron Curtain policy, a series of demonization and smear propaganda was carried out against the Soviet Union. The whole world had a non-violent and non-cooperative attitude towards the Soviet Union. You can do whatever you want, but no one will care if you play with yourself. Even if the Soviet Union already has an outlet to the sea and takes a ship to carry goods out, it can only trade through smuggling.

No country or government is willing to establish diplomatic relations with the bear. The bear's diplomacy can only go to the lower class and export revolution along the line of the Communist International. It is precisely because of this situation that the bear's image is like ice and fire. In the upper class, it is said to be a devil, a ghost, and a wife of what it produces. In short, it is notorious, while among the people and the proletariat, it is said to be a paradise on earth and a revolutionary holy land.

For Zhang Cheng, Europe can do whatever he wants, but if he can't cut a piece of meat in Japan, it's calledThey surrendered, feeling uncomfortable and even more infuriating. They refused to withdraw even the occupied Russian territory of Sakhalin Island. They could not let the Japanese government continue to be deaf and dumb. So Vladivostok gathered heavy troops and issued an ultimatum, requiring them to respond to the joint notice within four hours and eight hours, whether to cede territory and pay compensation, otherwise our army would carry out a cross-sea bombing.

The Japanese finally couldn't stand it anymore and sent a delegation to Vladivostok for peace talks. In fact, Zhang Cheng didn't want to deal with them too harshly, otherwise it might seriously interfere with the historical trend of the country, but Zhang Cheng didn't want to let them go easily. So he met with the head of the Japanese negotiation delegation, Jiro Tanaka, in the Vladivostok villa.

Crystal lamps, floor-to-ceiling windows, boss chairs, large fantai, antique furniture, printers, large computer screens, both classical and sci-fi, Zhang Cheng's office is like this, both ancient and modern office facilities.

Zhang Cheng turned his chair and said directly: In view of the Japanese invasion, my request is also very simple, that is, ceding land and paying compensation.

Out of diplomatic etiquette, Tanaka Jiro wanted to shake hands, but he didn't expect that the other party turned his chair but didn't stand up, nor did he extend a friendly hand. Instead, he made a request directly. Looking at the other party, who was wearing ancient costumes and a golden crown, Tanaka Jiro tightened his eyes and looked at Zhang Cheng with rat eyes, while speaking righteously:

I didn't expect that the commander of the Russian army was actually a Chinese. This is too surprising, but please forgive me for being frank. The general did not defeat my Great Japanese Empire. Now it's just that neither of us wants to continue the war, just like the last Russo-Japanese War. Let's stop here. How about the actual control line as the boundary between the two sides?

Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "Why don't you want Japanese expatriates and combat uniforms? If you don't want them, then I will accept them as gifts, but our demands must be met. If the Japanese attitude is the same as yours just now, then you can leave. If you don't want to talk, let's meet on the battlefield."

Tanaka Jiro said, "General, if you want to get territory, why do you have to go far away? Why do you have to fight across the sea to attack Japan, which has poor land? Isn't the surrounding area of ​​the general fertile land? We, the Great Empire of Japan, will no longer stop your Yellow Russian plan.

This is not because Japan has any good intentions, but after the headquarters' deduction, Japan has been unable to stop any behavior of the bear on land. But it's just a personal favor. Zhang Cheng smiled coldly and said, "Mr. Tanaka, haven't you heard that gifts and contributions are paid for by each person? Is it a gentleman's behavior to be generous to others? I might as well say it directly, are you going to give Hokkaido or not? If not, we will continue to fight. Let's see if this natural barrier of the sea can become an insurmountable gap. "

Tanaka Jiro said: "General, every nation has dignity. We will never agree to cede Hokkaido, but everything can be discussed. We are willing to withdraw from Sakhalin Island and hand over the defense of Lushun. Taking a step back, we can even hand over all the interests of the former German in Shandong and our country in the Northeast to your country. This is our final bottom line."

Zhang Chengdao: After all this talk, I am still being generous to others. However, you Japanese have too narrow vision. You always judge others by your own standards. The hegemony of the world today is the hegemony of the sea. What is the use of the hegemony on land? We, the Soviet Union, have no intention of spying on the flower-growing territory. Our goal is Hokkaido, Pearl Harbor, New Zealand, Australia, and the Pacific Ocean that connects the world. We, the bears, have been confined to the land for too long. I want to build an amphibious civilization that spans the sea and the land. I am determined to win Hokkaido.
