"Mr. Special Envoy, the original intention of the establishment of the Volga Federation is that everything is for peace, and the purpose of the war is also to seek a sustained and just peace. The Volga Federation will not withdraw from the camp of the Allied Powers until the Allied Powers and the Central Powers cease fighting and reach a peace agreement. Under the wise leadership of our head of state, the Commonwealth can become a bridge and link for peace negotiations between the Allies and the Entente... This is our greatest sincerity, I don’t know this position, do you understand?”

As the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Cabinet, Pepe actually played more of a butler role in the military puppet regime of the Volga Federation. Wang Geng, the commander-in-chief of the federal armed forces who is the "head of state", made a decision with one word. Whether the King of Huaxia is in the Eastern Allied Forces of the Allied Powers or in the Volga Federation, it is said that he adopted the centralized system of minzhu. In fact, the monopoly of power has long been not secret.

The Gendarmerie Command of the Eastern Allied Forces of the Allied Forces and the National Security Bureau of the Volga Federation are almost two brands of one set of troops. Internal counter-revolutionaries and supervision are maintained through the Gendarmerie Command and the National Security Agency, which are overt and secret agencies. ..

As for the Bundeswehr and the National Guard, they are all subject to the supervision and review of the Gendarmerie Command. Of course, it is carried out in the name of the Federal National Security Agency within the federal territory. The game sounds more neutral.

Of course, Gustav Stresemann knew that the head of state of the Volga Federation was the king of China with the title of commander-in-chief of the armed forces, but when he first heard the word head of state from Pepelyaev, However, he was still taken aback. This meant that the Federation that appeared on the banks of the Volga River as a puppet regime almost publicly declared that it would take the path of military control, and that the parliament and the cabinet were just pawns in the hands of the Commander-in-Chief.

"Your Excellency Pepe, the fate of the Russian people will ultimately be in the hands of the Russian people themselves... If the war ends world peace, the Eastern Allied Forces of the Allied Powers will cease to exist... At that time, Your Excellency the Head of State, is going back to Asia Should I lead the Sino-Japanese Alliance, or continue to stay on this land as the head of state?"

Stresemann rolled his eyes and asked tentatively. In fact, he wanted to know the thoughts and expectations of the federal leaders represented by Pepe, and see if they could drive a wedge between King Huaxia and his federal leaders. Generals, although the yellow-skinned Mongols ruled this land for hundreds of years, does the King of Huaxia really plan to take root in the Volga Federation from now on?

"You don't need to worry about this. Our head of state is determined to create a harmonious society where the world is one family. In the Volga Federation, we talk about national autonomy and equal treatment. Belief and religion are completely free. As long as you abide by the federal laws and maintain the integrity of the country Security and unity, by the way, Your Excellency Special Envoy, the Federation recognizes multiple nationalities. If you and Your Excellency Ludendorff can no longer get along in Germany in the future, come to the Volga Federation. I will definitely reserve a few suitable positions for you to use your remaining heat... ..."

Pepe is actually very cautious. He directly interrupted the German envoy's temptations and admonitions. By the way, he made an advertisement for the Volga Federation. Europe is such a big place, and the royal families and nobles of various countries have intermarried for hundreds of years. There are countless examples of marriages with politics. It is not uncommon for a Frenchman to be the king of England and a German woman to be the queen of Russia. In Germany, there are no aristocrats and well-established upper classes. Once the war is over, they will become the target of liquidation by the conservative forces in the country. It is not impossible to go into exile at that time.

"Uh... this is a joke... that is, the war is over, and Lord Ludendorff and Lord Hindenburg, who led the Allied Powers to victory, will surely reach a higher level in the country. As for me, I am naturally still in the parliament It is a joke to say that you are in exile from the Federation... Closer to home, Your Excellency Ludendorff hopes that you can send representatives to visit Berlin, and we will sign a peace agreement in Berlin, is that okay?"

Stresemann's eyeballs rolled wildly, and he obviously didn't believe that he or Ludendorff might ever go into exile in the future. In his opinion, once Germany won the autumn offensive on the Western Front, it would be able to propose peace talks as a victor. And to end the war, as the most meritorious ministers, how could Ludendorff and himself not even have a place in Germany?This Pepe simply doesn't know what to say.

"Well... Of course we are going to Berlin, but after the armistice, considering the subtleties of each other's positions, we can sign a secret peace treaty in Samara, and the formal conclusion of the two parties can be included in the signing of the armistice peace treaty between the Allies and the Entente. Finished..." Pepe pondered and did not agree to go to Berlin to sign the peace treaty. The Volga Federation cannot formally leave the Allied Powers camp and become a traitor, let alone let the United States, Britain and France take advantage of it. At this moment, the peace talks between the two sides on the Eastern Front can only be private and secret progress, with an actual truce as its result.

"Can we only sign a secret peace treaty? This is a bit unconvincing. In the end, we abide by the agreement. If you stab us on the Eastern Front in a blink of an eye, how can I explain to Ludendorff? The German people will never Forgive the treacherous guy, don't look at the 30 National Defense Forces in your Federation, in terms of equipment level and combat effectiveness, we only need two second-line army groups to sweep you away!" Stresemann looked a little disappointed and threatened through gritted teeth.

"I am really puzzled by Stresemann. You are still a member of the German parliament. What you said is not at all level. A peace treaty is only really effective when both sides get what they need and balance their forces. It has something to do with the way the peace treaty is signed and expressed. Is it a matter of dime? If we don’t have the strength to defend our own territory, we deserve to be swept away by you. But if you make a wrong judgment, when you are thrown out by the German people as a scapegoat for the failure of the war in the future, don’t say we don’t accept you asylum application!"

What Pepe said was almost the answer that Wang Geng threw back to him when Pepe himself asked the King of Huaxia about the authenticity and effectiveness of the peace agreement. When he threw King Huaxia's answer back to the German special envoy to gag him, the Prime Minister of the Federal Cabinet felt very relieved. Isn't that the law of the jungle?Who will be bound by a paper peace treaty?Isn't the judgment of the two sides on each other's strength the real basis of the game?
