Chapter 537 The way the Russians negotiate!
The spring of 1882 came a little late, well, in the north of the Pacific Ocean, close to the Arctic Ocean, there is little difference between morning or evening. £∝,
However, as the naval general of the Russian Empire, Makarov likes to observe and observe intricately because he also has another identity, that is, scientists, scientists who study the Arctic.
Makarov had been to the Arctic many times before, especially after the defeat of Taiwan Island, the Russian Empire did not want to develop in such a southern region, because that kind of place was cursed by God, and something made them sick as soon as they went there!
Of course, Makarov knew that it was dengue fever, at least not in the north.
Well, Makarov is now the deputy commander-in-chief of the Russian Pacific Fleet. There is also a commander-in-chief above him, which is Sdark. This guy is too old and he will easily be timid when he is old. Therefore, the Russian Pacific Fleet at this time is basically a relatively peaceful fleet.
"Mr. Sdalke, what is happening in the south now should attract enough attention from our Pacific Fleet. The country of Japan has become District 11. So we don't know what the Pacific Rim Federation will do next. But at least, the diplomat, named Liszt, said in the UK that their Pacific Rim Federation will join forces with Britain, so our Russian Empire will definitely be targeted!"
That's right, Makarov is not only a scientist, but also a few of the current crises.
In fact, this crisis is very simple. That is, Japan, a country that is very good at committing suicide, was destroyed after provoking the Pacific Rim Federation. This is normal. And after the Pacific Rim Federation settled Japan, how could they just stay so honestly?
Besides, I had mentioned that I had an alliance with the British before, which was almost telling the Russian Empire that we would fight sooner or later.
But though...
"Makarov, my child, you have to be clear about what we can do now. Let's wait, at least I think. The Pacific Rim Federation cannot openly declare war. They always have to take into account international influence."
This is Stark's answer, and his true thoughts.
That's right, Makarov was very familiar with his boss. He knew that this old guy thought so, that the Pacific Rim Federation would not touch their Russian Empire.
In fact, there are some deep ideological problems here, that is, Makarov knows that the old guy Stark still thinks that yellow people cannot defeat white people.
This old guy is a believer of the dead Bakuning, so he naturally ignored the failure of the Russian Empire in Taiwan. Besides, there is indeed a certain reason for that failure. That is, they lost to mosquitoes, not the Japanese.
Then, this can be naturally inferred that the Pacific Rim Federation's guys are simply impossible to attack, and they don't have the courage to do so.
If this old man is really stubborn, Makarov certainly knows that the strength of the Pacific Rim Federation is already very strong. They have a lot of ironclad ships and have a high technical level. In addition, there are only three of his own Pacific Fleet that are completely ironclad ships, which I bought from Germany.
Germany is now the copycat kingdom of the world. Of course, the word copycat cannot be escaped from the things bought from such a country. So who is the copycat and how strong the combat effectiveness is, has not been tested on the battlefield yet.
However, there was nothing wrong with Stark's stuff, that was they had to wait.
Russia's Pacific Fleet is actually lonely for Russia!
In this day and age, Russia has a vast territory, which is true, but the use of this territory is quite strange.
The territory of Europe is nothing to say, and in the Far East, Vladivostok, and the current resident of the Pacific Fleet, Sakhalin.
And the rest of the places, such as the Siberian Plain, are almost no one there!
In other words, two places are still OK, but there is really no in the middle. Then, the information contact between these two places is basically based on the sea route in winter, and it is better in summer, so you can go to Siberia in the middle.
At this time, it would be better to go to Siberia, but it would take half a year to go to the sea at the fastest.
In fact, the connection between the Pacific Fleet and Russia has never been completed within half a year, because it takes a long time to go by land and a longer journey by sea, and so...
Isn't there a telegram?
Yes, that's right, there are indeed telegrams, but who controls these telegrams?
There is no telegram in Siberia, so I really can't afford to press it. So I won't talk about it when I go south, but what about Southeast Asia when I go south?
These colonies are controlled by the British, and the British think it is difficult for the news about Russia. Of course, the two countries are fighting each other.
So, Stark's statement also makes sense, that is, the Pacific Fleet did not order it, at least they could not take the initiative to fight the Pacific Rim Federation, and they could do nothing they could do.
At this time, Makarov felt very helpless because he knew that this battle would not be too far away...
As Makarov thought, the spring of 1882 had not yet arrived, and it was in April that the threat from the south came!
"My Pacific Rim Federation now requires the Russian Pacific Fleet to leave Sakhalin! Go back to your homeland and return other people's places to others!"
“Sakhalin, including Vladivostok, are all inherent territory of our Pacific Rim Federation!”
"You Russian Empire signed unequal treaties with the Qing Dynasty. Before that, Li Mengyang, the emperor of the Pacific Rim Federation Empire, had already announced that all these treaties would be invalidated!"
The person who came here was named Hirofumi Ito, and he heard that he was named Minister of Foreign Affairs of the North Pacific Federation of the Pacific Rim... The name is really long enough, there is no way, this country is too big now.
Of course, Makarov understood that what Hirobuki Ito was just an ultimatum!
Yes, I told us Russians to get out... Well, Makarov doesn't want to make such a conclusion, but there is no way, the situation is now.
So, can Makarov manage this?
"Go back and tell your monarch! We Russians will never leave our territory!" The old man Stark still defended the bottom line!
However, that Hirobuki Ito is also very good at speaking.
"Why is this your Russian territory? This is obviously China's territory! Now, the great emperor and Emperor have integrated the entire Pacific Ocean. He naturally inherited the previous Chinese territory. Therefore, you Russians are simply a group of thieves and thieves! You just live here for the time being! Leave quickly!" Ito Hirofumi is really good at whining.
"This...what!...I don't admit it!" This guy named Stark obviously couldn't keep up, but he had one thing, which was the stubbornness of the Russians.
This is impossible, there is no way, and in the end Stark used the Russian's unique skills!
"This Mr. Hirofumi Ito! This is how we Russians rule is to put things on the table and let's go to the bar!"
"drink wine?"
Hirobu Ito never expected that this could be put on the wine table when talking about a country's territorial issues. So how should we talk about it?
Hirobu Ito was very curious, so he naturally agreed to the invitation and followed Stark and left.
"What?! This is..."
When I arrived at the wine table and saw those wine bottles, Hirobuki Ito immediately became dumbfounded. There were too many bottles per bottle!
"Come on! Mr. Hirofun Ito! Show your courage! Hahaha... In our Russia, if your alcohol tolerance is not good, it means your character is not good. In that case, we will not talk to such people! Come, cheers!"
Nasdark poured a large glass of wine directly, and poured a glass for Ito Hirofun!
"This..." Hirobuki Ito didn't know why he took this glass of wine.
"Fuck!" Nasdark didn't think he was not young anymore, but he just tilted his neck.
"..." Hirobuki Ito's eyes were about to pop out, what a big cup!
Really, they killed it directly, and this wine...
Hirobu Ito is very smart. When he saw this attitude, he drank so happily over there. Maybe there is something wrong with this wine, right?
Yes, maybe this is a fraud. This wine itself is not a strong liquor, it may be very gentle!
You really don't know how to say it, Hirobuki Ito really knows how to think about it.
So, Hirobuki Ito took his time!
"For the big Japan...oh, for the 11th District! all-hail-lee!" Anyway, it was all kinds of slogans. Ito Hirobuki shouted it all over, and then...
Put your neck up! Gudong, Gudong, Gudong...
"Ahhh! Crack..." Hirobuki Ito sprayed at that time!
How can I not spray it? That's vodka!
After entering this glass, it almost killed Hirofumi Ito. This Japanese man couldn't drink too much wine, and just their small body, let's put it this way, the capacity of alcohol depends on the person's weight.
"Hahaha..." Stark was so happy.
It was really funny, and indeed, the negotiation ended here, but when Makarov looked around, he knew very well that this matter could not end so easily!
"We must report to the Tsar!" Makarov knew that the matter was serious, so he had to contact the Russian central government.
"Baga!" Hirobuki Ito was tricked, but he would definitely come back!
As time goes by May, steel warships appear in Japan, oh, it is the northern part of the 11th District Sea... (To be continued.)
