Chapter 542: Nothing to Say (Second Update)
Yishan's stupidity can be regarded as a shock to the past and the present, and Muravyov's good luck is even more rare in a century, and the extreme case of the "Aihui Treaty" is also the only one in the history of the world. But the benefits that Muravyov earned for the Russians were so great that he became a count, a hero to the Russians, and everyone began to believe that Muravyov was a man who could do miracles.
It's a pity that Muravyov's set can also fool Yishan, and he can't go any further when he meets Tepchin, not to mention Goshinga, who has now entered the hinterland of Russia. However, the tsar believed in Muravyov, who had been away from the Far East for several years, and officials at all levels and the Russian people also believed in him. Therefore, although Wei Tuoma found Ba Yuseke that night, the attitude of the Russian side was quite resolute, and he must take this set of things to try his luck in front of Zou Degui.
"What is this?" The next day, Zou Degui, who saw the Russian proposal at the Prime Minister's Yamen, was shocked and looked at Luan Yu in dismay. Could it be that the army group was completely destroyed, or that Goxinga was accidentally killed, and how could this proposal of the Russian side seem to be as if the Manchurian Army had been defeated.
Luan Yu shook his head at Zou Degui blankly, although after arriving in Beijing, they had to use the "outdated" cable telegram, but the news had not yet reached this level. Luan Yu had just contacted Changchun last night and confirmed that there was no fluctuation in the battle on the front line, and the Russian army was still under siege by the Manchurian Army. Comrade General Guo Xing'a, although he was a little depressed because he could not take Temple Street and Sakhalin Island for a long time, he was in good health and ate a good meal.
"This ......?" The talented Zou Degui was a little at a loss for words, holding up the fantastic proposal made by the Russians, and then looked at Wen Xiang and Wei Tuma, hoping that the two mediators could give him an explanation.
Wen Xiang spread his hands, and Wei Tuma shrugged his shoulders, and they were helpless. The Russians sent such a thing, and they refused to change it no matter how much they persuaded them, what could they do. As for what kind of heart the Russians based on to write such a fantastical thing, they couldn't give Zou Degui an answer, the ghost knows what kind of medicine the Russians took wrong.
"Mr. Bayusek, this ......" Zou Degui still didn't know how to phrase it, just such a thing, there was no need to talk about it at all, just continue to fight.
"I am amazed at all the unreasonable demands made by your side, this is simply blackmail, and I, the Russian Empire, will never accept such shameless blackmail!" Zou Degui was still shocked and confused, but Ba Yuseke on the opposite side jumped up first, as if the proposal of Northern Manchu was more excessive than his.
"Huh?" Zou Degui is also a wise person, but he really can't say a word, it's too shocking, the behavior of the Russians is completely beyond everyone's comprehension.
"In the face of your shameless aggression, our Russian Empire will never give up an inch of territory, let alone pay a copper plate, so that you must unconditionally withdraw your troops and compensate our Russian Empire for its losses!" Zou Degui's shock gave Ba Yuseke some misunderstanding.
"Outer Manchuria is our territory, and to this day, your invading army is still stubbornly resisting on our territory!" Luan Yu was angry, but he still spoke out and argued with Ba Yuseke.
Zou Degui shook his head helplessly, and smiled bitterly at his acquaintance Wen Xiang. Zou Degui never replied to Ba Yuseke, in addition to being shocked, to a large extent, he didn't want to deal with him. There is no point in arguing about the Russian side's point of view at all, they are just talking nonsense, and if they insist on this point of view, they will continue to fight, and arguing is simply a waste of saliva. It's a pity that Luan Yu still couldn't hold back, fell into Ba Yu Seke's circle, and quarreled with Ba Yu Seke in the framework of the Russian dream.
"The Treaty of Aihun has long been decided, the Amur River basin is the sacred and inviolable territory of the Russian Empire, and it is you who have invaded the territory of the Russian Empire!" Ba Yuseke actually brought a copy of the "Aihui Treaty" and showed it directly as evidence.
"The Treaty of Aihui is an invalid treaty signed by your former Governor of Eastern Siberia, Muravyov, without the authorization of the central government, after he suddenly kidnapped our Heilongjiang general Yishan. The Qing Dynasty and the government of North Manchukuo have never recognized this shameless agreement! Luan Yu argued, of course, he also found that he seemed to have entered a strange circle, why should he argue with Ba Yuseke about these topics that do not have any nutrition.
"You Orientals just don't have the spirit of contract!" Bayusek didn't want to fight for the details of the Aihui Treaty, after all, this thing was really not a fair thing.
"Let's stop making these unnecessary arguments, in short, is this proposal the attitude of the Russian side?" Zou Degui had seen enough of the excitement and asked his question.
"Yes, this is the bottom line of our Russian Empire." Ba Yuseke was very excited, because he felt that Zou Degui seemed to be easier to bully than Luan Yu.
"And what about our proposal?" Zou Degui is really a good character.
"Our proposal is our final bottom line, and there is no possibility of discussing changes. As for your shameless blackmail proposal, we will not accept it! Bayusek suddenly felt that it was very easy for Muravyov to be a hero, and it was really happy.
"Why do you want to survey Trans-Manchuria?" Zou Degui saw that the first shop of tea hadn't moved much, so he took the time to ask a question he was curious about.
"For the sake of fairness, you have shamelessly refused to recognize the legitimate Treaty of Aihui, so we must prove in the presence of everyone that the Amur River basin is indeed the territory of our Russian Empire, and that the border between the two sides is the Amur River and the Usu River. At the same time, we also hope that through the ironclad evidence obtained from this survey, you will return the Russian territory occupied by you east of the Usu River. "Bayusek has put forward his dream territorial plan, and if Zou Degui accepts it, he will also get a Count of Ussudski.
"East of the Wusu River?" Zou Degui didn't know where the Wusu River was.
"The place you call the Ussuri River, where a large area of the Littokou, including Vladivostok, has been shamelessly seized by you, and according to the terms of the treaty, it is the territory of my Russian Empire!" Bayusek tried to accomplish a feat that the Russians had not accomplished.
"Alright! I deeply feel the desire of all of you to mediate, but my government in North Manchukuo cannot accept such a ridiculous request, so let's end the negotiations! Zou Degui took a sip of the untouched teacup, and then prepared to pack up his things and leave.
Wei Tuma and Wen Xiang didn't have anything to say, because there was really nothing to say, and since they saw the Russian proposal, they knew that this would be the result. But Bayusek wasn't ready to end there, he only said the demands, and there were many threats he hadn't had time to say!
