Kemal is certainly aware that Turkey may indeed have some dependence on China at the moment. At the same time, Turkey's biggest backer, Soviet Russia, is unlikely to meet Turkey's needs in many ways―――――― most importantly, there are deep-rooted contradictions between the two sides.

And there are quite a few of them.

The first is the religious aspect, that is, the religious aspect.

We will not mention what religion the Russians profes, but one thing is certain, that is, the current Soviet Russia, especially the people in power in Soviet Russia, can be said to have no good impression of religion.

Marx and Lenin once pointed out that religion is a kind of 'ideological consolation' and 'the longing for a happy life after death' that 'the exploited class seeks because it has no strength to fight against the exploiting class'. It is 'a mentally inferior liquor' and 'opium that anesthetizes the people'.

Leaving aside the question of whether this statement is correct or not, it also shows the attitude of Soviet Russia.

And there is no doubt that Lenin is not dead.

It is also because of this relationship that since the October Revolution, the Soviet Russian side has been carrying out repressive measures against religion. If this were not the case, when Kolchak and others began to go into exile in Siberia, there would not have been so many clergy following―――――― not because they wanted to leave their homeland with them, giving up their own property or anything else, nor because they wanted to come to such a 'long march'. It's because after being controlled by Soviet Russia, there is no place for them in Eastern Europe.

That being the case. Then instead of staying there, it is better to leave with Kolchak.

In fact, it can be said that the suppression of religion by the Soviet and Russian sides lasted for a long time, and it can basically be divided into two periods. One is the period from the October Revolution to the Second World War, during which there was a very brief period of revival of religion, perhaps because of the war.

And the second is what it looked like after the end of World War II and into the 80s.

After that, the problem of religion gets out of hand.

Leaving aside for the time being the religion originally practiced in Russia, and the religion practiced by the Turks are simply natural rivals. The attitude of the Soviet side towards religion alone. It is not something that the Turks can tolerate.

Not to mention anything else. There are still many contradictions between each other.

For example, Turks don't drink alcohol and can't eat pork. And for the Russians, drinking alcohol is almost impossible to prohibit, as for pork or something. All right. Perhaps the Russians can hold back. But how long can you endure it?

And in addition to these, it is important to know that Turkey and Russia can be said to have a vendetta. There have been many conflicts between the two countries over the years. The Russo-Turkish War is also far more famous than the Greco-Turkish War.

Although both Russia and Turkey have now become new regimes, the upper echelons of these two regimes are almost always inherited from the original state. For example, Kemal was once an officer in the former Turkish Empire, and now the upper echelons of Soviet Russia are all former Russians―――――― of course, this is nonsense.

In any case, at least one thing is certain, that is, no matter how many sweet words the upper echelons of these two countries usually say when they communicate, the relationship between the two countries cannot have no impact on them. In the same way, in the process of dating, it is impossible for them to have no scruples in their hearts, after all, the difference between them is too great.

However, there are still many places in Turkey that need to rely on Soviet Russia, and Soviet Russia also needs a country like Turkey to break the blockade created by other countries. So for the time being, there won't be any major problems, but after a long time, I'm afraid the situation may not be the case.

After the original enthusiasm gradually fades, I am afraid that the contradiction will follow...

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

glanced at Leng Shan coldly, Kemal did not immediately give Leng Shan any reply. Instead, after a moment of silence, he ordered someone to take him away first.

"Remember, this matter must not be known to anyone, especially the advisory group of Soviet Russia, understand..."

After Leng Shan left the room, Kemal commanded to the few people beside him.

"Don't worry, we know..."Although those people didn't know what Kemal and Leng Shan were talking about in the room just now, they could still guess more or less. What's more, they knew very well how much trouble it would cause if this matter was known to the Soviet Russian advisory group, so everyone nodded and looked tight-lipped.

No way, who said that the Turks still have a lot of places to rely on Soviet Russia, not to mention, if there is no military equipment provided by Soviet Russia, the current offensive launched by the Turks may soon be suspended―――――― this is also a helpless thing, the original Ottoman Empire was not an industrial power, although it also has a certain industry, especially the military industry, but it is simply not comparable with Britain and France and other powers, let alone can support the Turks for too long to fight.

What's more, with the end of the First World War, the Turks suffered heavy losses this time, and the recent chaos brought great damage to Turkey.

Turkey's industry is not strong, you can imagine how much is left of Turkey today―――――― you know, after a series of civil wars, the original industry was relatively strong Tsarist Russia did not even have a tenth left, let alone Turkey.

Naturally, Turkey did not suffer such a civil war as Tsarist Russia, but given Turkey's weak foundations...

Under the chaos, what can be left can be said to be pitiful.

It was precisely because of this that in the case of fighting the Greeks, the Turks increasingly needed support from Soviet Russia. At least until the defeat of Greece, and if this time it was time for Soviet Russia to know that there was a connection between Turkey and China. It will inevitably lead to a lot of disputes, which is bound to be detrimental to Turkey today.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Perhaps it was because they did not expect that the Chinese side would send people to the Turkish side in the event of a dispute with the Turks. Therefore, the Soviet and Russian delegations did not find out about Leng Shan at all, let alone know that Kemal had already had a conversation with Leng Shan.

At this time, they were secretly drinking in the conference room, and there was no way, although the later generations of Turkey were not very strict in this regard. But now, after all, it was just the time when the Ottoman Empire had just collapsed, and religion still had a great influence on the country, and drinking in front of the Turks, these Soviet and Russian advisers did not have the courage to do so.

On the other hand. After returning to the banquet. Kemal, on the other hand, pretended that nothing had happened, and almost rejoiced with the others.

As for Leng Shan, after leaving Kemal, he returned to one of the Chinese government's strongholds in the city ―――――― temporary.

Although the Secret Service is not without power in Turkey. However, it is much weaker than other regions. Therefore, it is impossible to have its own power in all Turkish cities. The current one was also developed before the Turks attacked. And it was only after the capture of the Turks that they moved in. After all, war is very dangerous, and no one knows if it is possible that when you are in a stronghold, it is just because of bad luck. Not a single cold cannon hit.

Although when they joined the Secret Service, these people were already mentally prepared for a high probability of dying on the way to the mission. But to be honest, if the death is so nonsensical, I'm afraid whoever it is will die blindly.

They are the same, not to mention that in addition to this bad luck that does not know when it will befall them, there are many things that may threaten them.

For example, the Turkish soldiers who stormed the city, don't look at these guys who came to drive away the Greeks, you think what a group of upright soldiers they are. In fact, from a certain point of view, the military discipline of the Turkish army is not very good, and burning, killing and looting occur from time to time.

If they were ordinary Turks, maybe they could be a little more merciful. But if they break into the room and find that there are actually some yellow people living in it, it is really hard to say―――――― after all, the two are not the same nation in the first place, and secondly, there are often some frictions in the territory...

So, as mentioned earlier, the Secret Service's stronghold in the city was moved in entirely after the Turks had already captured the city and made sure that the situation had stabilized somewhat.

Naturally, now they did not need to worry about the threat from the Turkish army at all, after all, Kemal already knew about their existence. Even if it is not possible to respond immediately, there is definitely some protection......... Or maybe surveillance!

However, these are not Leng Shan's responsibilities, and his only task is to redo the mouthpiece between the Turkish government and the Chinese government.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"But is it really possible that the Turks will contact us?"

Inside the room, looking at Leng Shan, who had just come back from outside, Gao Nian couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"After all, we are fighting the Turks in the south now, and we have occupied a considerable part of their land, so it is inevitable to make peace with them now..."

"Who knows..."Sitting on the sofa, Leng Shan shook his head. Anyway, this is a domestic order, we just need to obey it, as for the rest, it is not for us to interfere. However, since there is no problem in China, there should be no problem, and perhaps the domestic side knows more about the situation than we do..."

That being said, Leng Shan also has some doubts in his heart.

There is no way, who calls the current contradiction between the Communist government and Turkey so great, and almost all of its territory in the Arab region is occupied by the Communist government. In Leng Shan's opinion, such a big grudge is probably greater than that of the Turks and the British.

Of course, this is just Leng Shan's opinion, in fact, whether it is the Middle East or other regions, for the Turks belong to those 'minorities'. The Turks, on the other hand, have always been relatively inhumane towards those minorities. This can be seen from the recent infliction of the Ottoman Turks against the Armenians.

So if the Turks really have any dissatisfaction with this, I'm afraid it's only because of the shame of losing the territory, and the oil problem found there ...

Needless to say, oil is a very inexpensive income for Turks who are in dire need of reconstruction funds, and if they can have this income, then Turks do not need to worry about reconstruction funds at all.

Thinking of this, Leng Shan also complained a little in his heart.

Originally, if there was no oil problem, maybe the Turks might have agreed, but now that there is an oil problem. It is really difficult to say whether the Turks will agree or not.

Case. It's better to hide it for a while, anyway, Kuwait's oil has been hidden for a long time. Rather than being exposed in the face of the British in the face at the "Washington Conference", it is better to wait until this incident is over, so that even if the Turks want to regret it, it will be useless.

Leng Shan naturally didn't understand. If you do that. Maybe you can deceive the Turks. But this qiē is all based on the position that Turkey is completely useless. And in fact, Turkey really has no use value for China? I'm afraid not necessarily!

At least in Yan Shao's view, Turkey is still very useful, especially when it is almost impossible for Japan and China to cooperate in a short period of time. Turkey, one of the very few independent countries in Asia, has naturally become one of the few countries favored by the national government.

What's more, Turkey is still relatively rich in resources, although it looks relatively desolate.

Turkey is rich in mineral resources. Mainly boron, chromium, iron, copper, bauxite and coal. The reserves of boron trioxide and chrome ore are among the highest in the world. The forests are vast, the lakes are rich in fish and salt, and the Anatolian plateau has vast pastures. Hydropower resources are also abundant, and dams and reservoirs have been built in the gorges of major rivers to develop hydropower and irrigation.

Of course, Turkey also has oil resources, but it is not enough to produce enough to be self-sufficient and must import from abroad, but the discovery of oil fields on the Black Sea coast of Anatolia, East Thrace, Iskenderun Bay, and South Anatolia near the border with Syria and Iraq may increase Turkey's oil self-sufficiency―――――― although these places now seem to be under Chinese control.

So if the Turks played a game on this issue when they still have use value. One can imagine how annoyed the Turks would have been when the Communist government suddenly announced the discovery of oil in Kuwait not long after the treaty was signed.

And this humiliation is definitely enough for the Turks to remember for a lifetime.

In this case, cooperation with the Turks is basically impossible. At least if it were Yan Shao, if he was tricked like this, it would be absolutely impossible to cooperate with the other party―――――― not even the slightest possibility.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In fact, for Yan Shao, he is also unwilling to cooperate with countries like Iran or Turkey. It's not that Yan Shao feels tired of leading such a country to develop, but because Yan Shao doesn't like the religion of these two countries.

After all, the religions of these two countries can be said to be not ordinary troubles in later generations.

If he could, Yan Shao would definitely want some normal allies, even if it was Burma, Thailand or Vietnam.

It's a pity that Yan Shao has too few options to choose from now. If this were not the case, Yan Shao would not have chosen Iran or Turkey as his allies.

However, in the absence of a choice, Yan Shao has no way to pay attention to so much.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Just as Leng Shan thought about it, this qiē was indeed not something they could decide.

However, Yan Shao's mention is very tempting for the Turks. After all, if you follow the Soviet Union, not to mention for the time being, there is always something wrong in your heart, and the most important thing is that no one knows what will happen to you in the end.

However, what the Communist government said was very simple: as long as the Turks were willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, the Nationalist government would be willing to draw the strings and help the Turks reconcile with Britain and France.

Even...

Even, the Nationalist government was willing to let Britain and France take a step back from the original treaty, that is, the Treaty of Sèvres, and give Turkey better preferential treatment.

In that case, it would be a very good thing for Turkey.

Of course, the Turks would have wanted more if they could, but that was not allowed by Yan Shao. After all, Yan Shao's original search and trade would send an expeditionary force to Europe to participate in the war, and the purpose was to serve those territories in the Middle East and the oil resources buried under those territories.

If it weren't for this, why would Yan Shao send troops under such a loud protest!

Therefore, it is almost impossible to get Yan Shao to give up this qiē, at least Yan Shao will never do so.

On the other hand, after some deliberations among his subordinates, Kemal and the others were a little moved. Even if it is not possible to meet every one of the demands they have put forward to the Commune government, it is still okay for Kemal to talk...

"It's better to talk than not to talk..." (To be continued......)
