Age of Rebirth

Faced with Stalin's almost irrational accusation, Tang Qiuli was full of helplessness. The supreme leader of the Soviet Union, when the Soviet Union was strong and powerful, when did the ambitious Stalin think of international public opinion and what other treaties he signed? something like that?

The Soviet-Finnish war with Finland, and the partition of Poland with Hitler will not be mentioned, but what happened in northern China, the annexation of the Tannu Ulianghai area, and the instigation of the independence of Outer Mongolia, did Stalin consider these things, and now it is the last resort What a straw, so pathetic and ridiculous!

Tang Qiuli felt that Stalin's stubbornness and luck should be completely defeated, and the Georgian who was on the verge of collapse should understand that he had no bargaining power, "Mr. Stalin, do you still remember to take into account international public opinion? It’s just the groans of help. This world is very realistic. Things like public opinion can’t be eaten. They can’t change anything. The current international public opinion has been drowned in the sound of guns and guns everywhere. I didn’t listen to your groans! "

"Treaties? Treaties are for tearing up. They are the rules of the game made by the strong and the chains that restrain the weak. This is reality. You Stalin are very familiar with tearing up treaties. After the first Outer Mongolia War, remember us Have the two sides signed a treaty?"

"It's also non-aggression, written in black and white. As a result, the ink is still wet. You Stalin mobilized more than 400 million troops from the three front armies to invade on a large scale. Not only did you want to reoccupy Outer Mongolia, but you also wanted to detach me from Tang Qiu's troops in Outer Mongolia. , beheaded and wiped out, and then coveted Inner Mongolia and the three northeastern provinces, you say, Mr. Stalin, what did the treaty at that time look like to you? Does it have any effect?"

"So, regardless of whether you, Stalin, sign this treaty, the future Soviet Union must be under the control of me, Tang Qiuli. If you sign it, you will solve this problem peacefully. If you refuse to sign it, you will solve it by force. The process is different, but the result is the same. Yes, I will not allow the Germans to cross the Ural Mountains, because that is my sphere of influence, but it does not mean that I cannot use force to eliminate the factors of instability in advance!"

"So, there is only one road ahead of you. Follow my arrangement. Otherwise, it shouldn't be difficult for my army of more than [-] to wipe out the Kurgan area and wipe out the tens of thousands of remnants and defeated Soviet troops. , I, Tang Qiuli, am a peace-loving person, I don’t like to fight and kill, so it’s good to discuss and settle things, isn’t it?”

"I, I..." Facing Tang Qiuli's knife-like words, Stalin almost fainted, his eyes were staring blankly, if Molotov hadn't hurriedly supported him, he would probably have fallen over On the ground, what people say is the truth. Sending troops to the eastern region and attacking the independent division is the biggest mistake he has ever made in his life. It was almost on the verge of subjugation. He was powerless to refute Tang Qiuli's words. The Soviet Union in my own hands has already lost almost all of its wealth. It has reached the verge of national ruin and family destruction, and it doesn't even have the capital and ability to resist!

"Dear General Tang, please think again, whether to make some changes to some of the content of the agreement? Of course, the core content of the agreement remains unchanged! Otherwise, we will not be able to explain to the Soviet people!" Stalin lost his ability to think , like a wooden stake, eyes staring straight, Molotov could only go on talking, he said in a pleading tone.

"Yes!" Tang Qiuli suddenly became magnanimous and readily agreed.

Molotov couldn't believe his ears, and asked excitedly: "General Tang, is it really possible to amend certain contents of the agreement?"

"Do you think I'm joking?" Tang Qiuli said indifferently: "In the content of the agreement, the title of the Soviet government-in-exile can be removed, and you can continue to use the country name of the Soviet Union. As for the others, nothing will be changed. What you need to know is that I have already made the biggest concession, removing one of the three core contents of the treaty, which is equivalent to revising a third of it!"

... "Also, in order to reflect the friendly relationship between us, in addition to the current West Siberia region, the jurisdiction of the Soviet government also includes the Central Asian region, which is a large piece of land, enough living space!"

"Oh!" Molotov almost groaned in pain. After arguing for a long time, he just revised this one clause. The other terrible clauses have not been changed at all. Is this the biggest concession?However, the newly added sphere of influence in the Central Asian region surprised him again, and then he was ecstatic.

Seeing Molotov's expression as if he had eaten a mouth full of Coptis chinensis mixed with white sugar, Tang Qiuli said with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Stalin and Mr. Molotov must have understood my attitude, and the negotiation is over now. If you are in a hurry to go back to Kurgan, I will arrange for you to leave as soon as you sign, if you are not in a hurry, just take a rest, we Chinese are very hospitable!"

Then, he pulled Liu Tiehan over and said: "This is Liu Tiehan, deputy division commander of our independent division who is in charge of northern affairs. From now on, deputy division commander Liu will be fully responsible for the specific implementation of the treaty. If you have any questions, you can contact General Liu. comminicate!"

Tang Qiuli and Liu Tiehan, as well as several translators and staff officers, all left. In the room, only Stalin and Molotov were left. The deadly and depressing atmosphere made them breathless. The white paper Under the dim light, there was a dazzling light. Although the fire in the stove was burning very vigorously, the hearts of the two of them were colder than the severe winter in Siberia.

"Comrade Stalin, shall we sign these treaties?" Molotov asked cautiously after getting a cup of hot water for Stalin and watching the leader drink it, his face regaining some blood.

"Aside from signing these treaties at the request of this damned Chinese, do we have any other way out?" Stalin seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to question Molotov, and finally, with a heavy sigh, "Sign it! For the Soviet Union, for tens of thousands of people in Kurgan, that is the last hope of the Soviet Union!"

Stalin picked up the heavy pen, and struggled to sign his own face on the relevant treaties. When he put down the pen, a cold light appeared in his eyes that did not match his age, "This is just the beginning, despicable Tang Qiuli, You divided Central Asia to me, which is the worst decision you ever made, and Central Asia, together with Xinjiang, will become the revival of the Soviet Union! Let’s see in ten or 20 years!”

In another room, Liu Tiehan seemed very excited. During the short negotiation of more than an hour, the teacher confused the two old men and couldn't find the way. He felt happy watching it. He smiled. He asked Tang Qiuli, "Master, will Stalin sign the agreement?"

Of course, Liu Tiehan's question was just a casual remark, and he really couldn't think of any other tricks for the two old men besides signing.

"Apart from this, does Stalin have any other ways to survive?" Tang Qiuli asked with a smile, "Brother Tiehan, after the signing of the treaty, immediately send troops to the Kurgan area to take charge of the reorganization of the remnants of the Soviet army. It must be carried out in accordance with the standards of paramilitary forces, and the reorganized Soviet army is similar to the temperament of the border guards and police, the number of which is kept within 5, and the commanders at all levels are appointed by our officers!"

"All the weapons and equipment of the Soviet soldiers now have to be confiscated. We will provide weapons, but only light weapons. Brother Tiehan, sign the treaty on our side, in the name of the Siberian Local Self-Government. Please trouble Brother Tiehan. Get the chairman of this self-governing government!"

"No problem! It's your decision anyway!" Liu Tiehan readily agreed, thinking it was ridiculous, and he got another official title, "Master, the food supplies for the remnants of the Soviet Army in the Kurgan area, I think it can be done once a week, so as to save the old men who have food in their hands, and have crooked thoughts in their hearts. One piece of food will choke the old man's neck. In addition, the next eight brigades will return to the original Is the resident out of use?"

…"Brother Iron Man, this plan is very clever! Use food as a chain, good!" Tang Qiuli praised loudly, "However, the troops are still assembled according to the original plan, and maintaining sufficient military pressure is also the last illusion of defeating Stalin. In addition, I am not at ease about the hundreds of thousands of German troops west of the Ural Mountains! Although Hitler promised that his troops would never cross the border, the generals under him are all militant, and the Soviets are here Under the nose, there is no guarantee that there will be no German generals acting privately!"

"Well! Keep enough troops to deal with emergencies!" Liu Tiehan nodded as if realizing something, and said: "Master, if there are really German troops crossing the Ural Mountains and attacking Kurgan, I, Liu Tiehan, will be ruthless." Beat the Germans back ruthlessly, and treat my hundreds of thousands of soldiers as a display?"

"Hahaha!" Tang Qiuli laughed loudly, "Brother Tiehan, let it be like this, the negotiation with Stalin is over, I will fly back to Dingbian tomorrow, and then rush to the Indochina Peninsula, I will ask Brother Tiehan for the northern affairs Please worry about it!"

"Aren't you like this in the past? Let go of it. Before I came to Tomsk, I sent several telegrams to Qiusheng. He is also responsible for the military and politics. He is very busy every day. You, the teacher, have not been to Indochina for more than a year. Alright!" Liu Tiehan said with a smile, and then his face became serious, "Master, I don't feel at ease to hand over the Central Asia region to Lao Maozi, Sheng Shicai, the Xinjiang border defense supervisor of the national government, is not a good bird , I used to hook up with Lao Maozi, so I have to guard against it!"

"Brother Tiehan is worrying too much!" Tang Qiuli smiled disapprovingly, "Stalin now is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, unable to protect himself, Shengshi is a smart man, he can see the heat, now hooking up with Stalin is not good for him Sheng Shicai will not do anything that is beneficial or not beneficial, don't worry, I will let Shen Jun keep an eye on Sheng Shicai and Stalin!"
