Age of Rebirth

Chapter 820 New Sino-Soviet Agreement

In the Lake Baikal area, Tang Qiuli played a ruthless hand, ordering Tang Qiusheng's Corps and Feng Jiwu's Corps to set up several gun lines on the way for the Transcaucasian Front Army to reinforce Timoshenko, blocking the eastward passage of the Soviet Army , Finally forced the Soviets to the negotiating table.

Molotov understood the meaning of Tang Qiuli's words. However, the old fox did not refute it. Everything had to wait for the Transcaucasus Front Army to pass through the Baikal region.

Tang Qiuli smiled faintly. Looking at Molotov's blue-gray eyes rolling around, he could tell what kind of plan this veteran of the CPSU, who followed Stalin's footsteps closely, was thinking.

He didn't want to block the Transcaucasus Front Army for too long. If Timoshenko's troops were eaten by the Kwantung Army, it would not be in line with Tang Qiuli's overall plan. The more intense the Japanese and Soviets fought in the Far East, the better. No matter which side consumes its strength, it will be beneficial to its future plans, so I am afraid that it will not be able to fight. [

Moreover, according to Tang Qiuli's judgment, even if the extra-Caucasian front army joins the Far East battlefield, the Soviets will still be at a disadvantage. The Kwantung Army still has more than 30 troops that have not been deployed, and the Soviet army in the Far East and the troops near the Far East. They are all used, and the Kwantung Army, which is red-eyed and taking advantage, will never give up easily. In the end, the Japanese army and the Soviet army will face a stalemate in the Outer Xing'an Mountains and the Kamchatka Peninsula.

Next, the negotiations entered the main topic. First of all, the status of the foreign countries. On this point, the two sides have no differences. Tang Qiuli has gained all the advantages in the foreign countries and is implementing effective administrative management. However, the Soviet Union's military strength in the outer regions has been completely lost, and the tool that can be used, the Communist People's Revolutionary Party, has been uprooted by Tang Qiuli.

In terms of international law, the government of the Republic of China has never recognized the independence of foreign countries. Therefore, whether it is Choibalsan's independence or the Soviet Union's military garrison abroad.They were all illegal, but the fact that the Beiyang government took great care of the military power of the Soviet Union at that time was the fact that foreign countries became illegally independent.

It can be seen from this that the so-called justice in the world, whoever has a hard fist has the right to speak, and wherever force goes, there is a paradise for the existence of justice. Stalin is a veteran in this way, and the military power of the Soviet Union abroad has already Tang Qiuli knocked them all out, and the traitors forced him into the palace in the Far East. He was in a state of desperation, and it was of no benefit to entangle himself in foreign affairs.

Therefore, Stalin wisely chose to give up all the interests in the foreign countries. Although his heartache and heartache were enough to keep him awake at night, he had to bow his head to Tang Qiuli. Strength is justified, and this is true!

Since there was no disagreement, Tang Qiuli and Molotov quickly settled everything and reached an agreement. The two sides jointly issued a statement, announcing the ownership and status of the diplomat to the world.

The basic contents of the agreement are: [-]. The Soviet Socialist Union recognizes the foreign territory as the inherent territory of the Republic of China. The chairman, General Tang Qiuli, has full powers.

[-]. From the date of the announcement, all activities of the Soviet Union abroad and hostilities shall cease, until the Provisional Military and Political Committee of the Foreign Affairs Commission confirms that it is necessary to restore the relationship between the two sides, and conduct necessary exchanges between the two sides.

[-]. The two sides jointly form a border survey committee to determine the specific location of the national border and lay boundary pillars.

Here, Molotov played tricks cunningly. He only emphasized the outlying areas, meaning the existing administrative divisions. Tang Qiuli could see the old fox's intentions at a glance. He wanted to keep quiet. The other four pieces of territory that originally belonged to the Outlander region under Hei'er's son thought he didn't know about it.

The existing foreign affairs administrative region has a land area of ​​200 million square kilometers. Among them, the Tannu Ulianghai area, which does not include most of the territory of the Tuva Republic of the Soviet Union, and was forcibly occupied by Tsarist Russia, now belongs to the northeast of Kazakhstan. The Khovd area in the lower part of the country, in a broad sense, includes Lake Baikal and the western part of Lake Baikal, with a total area of ​​more than 280 million square kilometers.

Tang Qiuli sent Feng Jiwu to lead troops into the above-mentioned areas to remind Stalin that all our military operations are to recover the original territory. Molotov wanted to be sloppy and swallow more than 80 square kilometers soil of.

Tang Qiuli smiled coldly, and filled in the above-mentioned region in the supplementary clauses of the agreement, and then handed the agreement to Molotov. After reading it, Molotov jumped up as if his butt was on fire. Such a big thing He can't make the decision. The bottom line Stalin gave him is the existing diplomatic territories, which do not include the above four areas.

If he agreed here, would it be strange if Comrade Stalin didn't skin him when he went back?This leader is more greedy for territory than anyone else in the world. Molotov was sweating, and quickly suggested that the negotiations be temporarily terminated. He wanted to ask Moscow for instructions. Tang Qiuli was not afraid that he would change his mind, so he readily agreed.

After receiving Molotov's telegram, Stalin almost gritted his teeth and agreed to all the demands of the Chinese, whom he called a villain and a scumbag, and spit out more than 80 square kilometers of land. Stalin was so angry that he almost ran away. He didn't have time to vent his anger, the messy war situation in the Far East was still waiting for him to deal with it!

In this way, the issue of the Outlaws was resolved. A total of more than 280 million square kilometers of land fell into the hands of Tang Qiuli. The border with the Soviet Union was moved northward to the area north of Lake Baikal, becoming a wedge wedged into the territory of the Soviet Union. A nail, this piece of land that has been away from the embrace of the motherland for nearly a hundred years, was taken back in Tang Qiuli's hands, and it became one of the capitals for him to compete in the world in the future.

The next thing to talk about is how to deal with Zhukov, who was besieged for more than ten days, and his 10,000+ soldiers of the First Far East Army. Tang Qiuli asked Molotov to talk about the proposal of the Soviet government first.

Molotov's request is that the squadron immediately lift the siege on the Soviet army, and the troops belonging to the First Army in the Far East immediately withdraw from the outer regions. The request is as simple as that. You Chinese withdraw the encirclement, and our Soviet When people return to China, they owe nothing to each other, and each goes his own way, which should be regarded as a misunderstanding.

Tang Qiuli didn't even say hello, got up and left the table, and walked away, leaving Molotov in a daze, wondering what made this robber-like Chinese general angry? [

It lasted for two days, and Molotov was so anxious that his eyes turned blue. He lived in a Chinese military camp, and he felt uncomfortable. Molotov asked about the tone, and Chang Feng just smiled and said: "Your Excellency, don't you think your request is a bit too much? Our squadron is fighting on our own land, and we are fighting against aggression. Your Soviet army was defeated, how can there be any reason for a defeated army to leave so easily?"

Molotov seemed to understand a little bit, and quickly said: "General, please tell General Tang that your request can be raised, and we can resolve it through negotiation." Chang Feng wanted these words from him.

Immediately, the negotiations resumed. When Molotov read the compensation claim put forward by the Chinese side, he jumped up angrily on the spot and shouted: "You are an act of banditry, naked robbery! It's extortion and extortion," Tang Qiuli said. He sneered coldly and said: "Really? You also find it difficult to accept. Then, starting from Tsarist Russia, how much land and wealth you Soviets have robbed from China, how can such a small amount of compensation be enough? Since ancient times Since then, the defeated will be punished, and I can completely order the elimination of 10,000+ Soviet soldiers in the encirclement.”

"Why didn't you do this? This reflects the civilization and long-standing martial arts of our Chinese nation. If you find this condition unacceptable, I don't need any compensation from the Soviet Union. It's just that General Zhukov and his 10,000+ soldiers, we will It is very simple to deal with the invaders, tens of thousands of cannons." Tang Qiuli's tone became colder and colder, and the murderous look could not help but be revealed, his eyes gleamed coldly like blades.

Molotov shuddered. He absolutely believed that the young man with the scars on his face covered with blood could do it, from the way he killed the Far East Special Army and the Soviet Army in the direction of Ulan-Ude. Look, he is definitely a bloodthirsty and murderous person, and he will not show mercy to Zhukov.

Tang Qiuli was not afraid of the Soviets cheating at all, and let go of the Transcaucasus Front Army, and he still had 10,000+ people from the First Far East Army. , even Chang Feng couldn't bear it, and the teacher was too dark.

This is the compensation condition drawn up by Tang Qiuli himself. As the defeated party in the foreign countries, the Soviet Union should pay the following compensation to the victorious North China Independent Division of the Republic of China in accordance with international practice: 70. Seven hundred howitzers with a caliber of 28mm 16 guns, [-] "T-[-]" tanks, [-] Il-[-] and MiG series fighters, and [-] trucks.

14. For the convenience of calculation, the surrounded Soviet soldiers are calculated as 15 soldiers, and General Zhukov is calculated as 15 soldiers. The total is [-] soldiers. Each soldier is equivalent to a meal of high-quality steel. The Soviet Union needs to take out [-] Thousands of tons of steel in exchange for the lives of soldiers.

[-]. All the existing equipment and medicines of the Far East First Group Army are not allowed to be taken away, and they are counted as weapons and equipment seized by our army in battle.

Fourth, the Soviet Union must provide bm13 rocket launchers, ten complete sets of equipment, and 130 [-] [-]mm tail rockets.

Remarks: The above conditions are our final bottom line. No bargaining is required. The Soviet Union needs to give a reply within three days. Finally, let me explain that this is for the lives of your soldiers. Please consider it carefully.

This was the whole content of Tang Qiuli's request for compensation. No wonder Molotov jumped up when he saw it. Tang Qiuli also thought about it. Instead of asking for money, it is better to ask for real benefits.

Tang Qiuli's conditions have already been set out, and he is waiting for Molotov's reply. He is not in a hurry anyway, and he has plenty of time to spend with the Soviets.
