Age of Rebirth

Stalin's plenipotentiary representative, Molotov, the People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union, was full of discomfort. Zhao Yuhe's straightforward approach disrupted his pre-plan. Molotov, who has been in the diplomatic circle all year round, does not like losing the initiative , even though this is in the territory of the independent division, despite the unfavorable conditions that the Soviet army is facing a crisis and has to ask for negotiations, he still has to take the initiative in the negotiation occasion, which is the result of years of habit!

Molotov laughed dryly and said, "General Zhao, this is not appropriate. We should at least hold a few preparatory meetings to bring your negotiating requirements to the meeting, and then determine the framework of the negotiation. Therefore, I suggest that the negotiation between you and me should be conducted in a formal occasion!"

Zhao Yuhe waved his hand, interrupted Molotov, and said: "Mr. Molotov, there is no need to have so many complicated details. Since I already know your Soviet Union's requirements, well, come up with enough to impress me. conditions, otherwise, the negotiation will break down!"

Molotov almost fell to the ground. He has been in the diplomatic circle for decades, and he has never seen such a negotiation. He didn’t say a few words, and the negotiation was about to break down. It seemed that he didn’t even have the subject of the negotiation. Let's talk about it?

This is not a negotiation. It is more like two businessmen discussing business. The price is not suitable, and they immediately break up. The key point is that the Chinese can do it, but I can’t. Besides, that negotiation was not The two sides came back and forth, bargained fiercely, and finally reached an agreement. The whole process did not take four or five days, and it would definitely not work out. Although I am eager to reach an agreement with Tang Qiuli now, it can't be so fast?

Molotov felt that his mouth was a little parched. Facing Zhao Yu and this rookie negotiating opponent, he really didn't know where to start, "General Zhao, I think you are too hasty. This is not a negotiation." This attitude is not conducive to reaching a mutually satisfactory agreement between you and us in the future, please come up with your conditions, we will think about it, and then sit down to discuss details and implementation issues!" He tried his best to calm down Said.

Zhao Yuhe frowned.Impatient in my heart, "This Molotov is really long-winded, doesn't he just want us to stop attacking the Soviet Army in the East, just talking nonsense," since I am impatient, there is no need to talk nonsense with this guy.The guy who doesn't cry when he sees the coffin thinks he's negotiating on equal terms, so go ahead and dream!

"Mr. Molotov, I'm a soldier and I don't like nonsense. It's fine to ask us to stop our military operations against the Soviet army. It's still the same sentence. Come up with enough bargaining chips to impress me!" Zhao Yuhe said in a stern tone, " Since you are not ready to return it, it’s okay, I can afford to wait, if you are ready, notify the sentinel at the door, goodbye!” After speaking, under the stunned expressions of several Soviets.Shi Shiran left the room, and the roar of the car motor gradually faded away until it disappeared and could no longer be heard.

Molotov's lips moved a few times, but he found that he didn't know what to say, and Zhao Yuhe's attitude was completely out of the routine.He didn't even say what conditions the Chinese people have, let himself how to accept the recruitment, how to feel, this time he came to Kulun.Not to negotiate but to sign the instrument of surrender? [

The alliance under the city, the negotiation at gunpoint, these words suddenly flashed across Molotov's mind. The directness and sharpness of this young major general completely disrupted the negotiation plan he had planned. He will not follow your routine. Go, what can I do?

Several of Molotov's entourage quit, and an entourage with Cheka background yelled angrily: "Comrade Molotov, what is the attitude of that Chinese? Is there anyone who treats a negotiating delegation of a powerful country like this?" Humiliation, **** "naked" humiliation, Comrade Molotov, I suggest that in addition to strongly protesting to the "government" of the Republic of China and demanding an apology from Tang Qiuli, we must terminate the negotiation immediately!"

Hearing the ignorant and arrogant words of this entourage, Molotov's face darkened, "What a guy who doesn't know the weight of his head, terminate the negotiations, you know what the fuck, even Comrade Stalin feels sorry for you! Distressed to offer more than 100 million square kilometers of land in exchange for Tang Qiuli to stop military operations against the Soviet army, how much do you know about the inside story as a small entourage?"

"He also strongly protested to the "government" of the Republic of China in a whimsical way, asking Tang Qiuli to apologize. He hasn't sobered up after drinking too much, right? That Tang Qiuli's current strength and influence is China's No. 1, the one of the "government" of the Republic of China. Chairman Jiang, you have to look at him. The national government has no deterrent power in front of Tang Qiuli. Do you, a small entourage, understand this? Don’t think that you can rely on yourself. Chekist background, dare to be so arrogant?"

"Aren't you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue when you terminate the negotiation? What the hell am I doing here? Just go to Kulun, listen to the unconventional words of the stunned major general of the independent division, and then go back home? Really? Damn, killing you is like crushing a bug!"

Molotov was really annoyed, not only because of Zhao Yuhe's attitude, but also because of the knowledge and arrogance of this attendant, "Shut up!—Enough!" He suddenly shouted violently, his face livid, Pointing to the entourage with a Chekist background, he continued, "From now on, during your stay in Kulun, you must keep your mouth shut. You are not allowed to say a word without my permission. This is an order, do you hear me?"

"I don't want to hear such stupid arguments again. Otherwise, I don't mind sending you back to China in advance. You know the consequences of doing that! Cheka can't save you!"

Molotov's vicious eyes and merciless words shocked this entourage with a Cheka background, and he took a few steps back with a look of panic. Originally, he wanted to rely on his Cheka background to argue a few words, But seeing Comrade Molotov's cannibalistic eyes, he became timid, and seemed to remember that this person in front of him was a high-ranking leader among all the important members of the Soviet party, government and army.

Even when the Cheka was in its heyday under the leadership of Comrade Beria, its power was overwhelming, and it could cover the sky of the Soviet Union with one hand. Beria himself at that time did not dare to be a little presumptuous in front of this person. Now, the Cheka has already Declining, the scenery is gone, even Beria himself is in prison, he is a small peripheral member of the Cheka, with the power of an ant, what qualifications do he have to wrestle with this big guy, that is not plucking a tiger's beard, his own Are you courting death?

Looking at the look in Comrade Molotov's eyes, it is not a problem to kill yourself on the spot, "Comrade Molotov, I am very sorry, I made a slip of the tongue, I sincerely accept your criticism, and I will correct it in the future and follow your orders! "This guy saw the opportunity quickly, and hurriedly lowered his head to admit his mistake, his back soaked in cold sweat.

"Humph!" Molotov snorted coldly, and ignored such inconspicuous little characters. He hurried back and forth in the room, thinking about various ideas, and his mind was in a state of confusion. Ah, how can I figure it out? In fact, it is also very simple. I took out the chips I had discussed with Comrade Stalin in Moscow and told Tang Qiuli that this was the biggest concession the Soviet Union could make.

However, Molotov didn't want to just throw out his hole cards so easily. Even with a few words, all his hole cards were "revealed". I will be led by the nose by Tang Qiuli, what if Tang Qiuli, who is greedy and disgusted, makes more excessive demands, what should I do?

"Comrade Molotov, the Chinese simply does not negotiate. What countermeasures should we take? Personally, I think that under the circumstances, it is not appropriate to take out our bargaining chips, so as not to be passive! We can ask the Chinese to come up with Their negotiation framework, we are formulating corresponding countermeasures according to the specific situation," an experienced and prudent entourage suggested cautiously.

Molotov stopped, quite moved by the entourage's suggestion, frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Okay, Comrade Gordakov, you are in charge, drafting a statement to Tang Qiuli, Ask the Chinese to come up with a framework document for negotiations!"

Zhao Yuhe returned to the headquarters in high spirits. As soon as he entered Tang Qiuli's office, he saw Chu Tian, ​​the head of the Special Operations Detachment besides the division commander, and hurriedly greeted him, "Chief Chu, aren't you active in the west of the Ural Mountains?" , why are you back?" [

Chu Tian got up and saluted, and replied: "Report to the Chief of Staff, I rushed back from the Soviet Union after receiving the order from the division commander. No, I just arrived!"

Looking at the excited Zhao Yuhe, Tang Qiuli asked, "Yuhe, have you met with Molotov? Have you decided on the time and place for the negotiation? Have you given the Soviets our conditions? Molotov What's your husband's attitude?"

Zhao Yuhe was taken aback, and replied: "Master, is it as complicated as you said? The reason why the Soviets came here is to prevent us from causing trouble for the Soviet army..." Then, he gestured in his hand, drawing He told the story vividly, and at the end, he said proudly: "Negotiation is nothing complicated, it's almost like doing business!"

Tang Qiuli was basically petrified. After a long time, he sighed and said: "Yuhe, this is the most unusual negotiation I know. Put aside all the procedures and go straight to the point. Before finishing two sentences, the negotiation was announced to be broken down." , I’m afraid it’s the rarest scene to see in all diplomatic negotiation occasions, that Molotov is in trouble! Yuhe, you’ve cornered the Soviets! This is not negotiation, it’s coercion! "

Zhao Yuhe looked at Tang Qiuli in confusion, and asked, "Master, did I do something wrong?"

Tang Qiuli shook his head hastily and said, "No!—Yuhe, you did nothing wrong. In the current situation in the Far East and Outer Mongolia battlefields, the Soviets are eager to seek peace, so they have to pay a price to satisfy us. That's good too!"

Seeing that the master didn't mean to blame himself, Zhao Yuhe seemed relieved, and asked, "Master, in your opinion, what bargaining chip will the Soviets offer?"
