Pavel really regretted it. After the end of World War I, when the status of East Prussia was basically consolidated, the Jewish elites, including him, believed the words of the British - World War I would be a war to end the war... ≦ They naively thought that the international political order had been established, and they believed that this order would never have any major changes or adjustments.

Based on this, the Jewish elites formulated their own national policies, hoping to gradually get rid of the influence of the Russians and become a normal independent country. During this period, with Pavel's acquiescence, the relationship between East Prussia and the Soviet Union gradually changed from friends and brothers to "business" partners. Especially when the Soviet Union was once again excluded by the international community in the late 1920s, the Jews further opened up the distance from the Soviet Union.

But what caught Pavel and the Jewish elites off guard was that an unprecedented economic crisis changed everything. The Germans, who were originally like dead dogs, suddenly turned into jackals, while the tiger and leopards, who were originally shouting and beating and killing jackals, were locked up in a zoo and became no aggressive at all. They had no response to Germany's step by step freeing the shackles, and they were even happy to see it happen.

Germany's re-arming greatly changed the political structure of Eastern Europe and Central Europe, making East Prussia, which was originally planned to become a neutral country, instantly became extremely embarrassing. The Germans were eyeing each other in the west, and the relations with Western Poland in the south were stagnant. Even the former friends in the east turned against each other.

Jewish political elites looked around and suddenly discovered that the neutral policy that had been implemented for more than ten years had brought the country into an extremely dangerous situation, and their geopolitical environment was deteriorating like a lonely person.

Seeing that something was wrong, the Jewish people quickly began to act. On the one hand, they quickly contacted Britain and France. They hoped to hold these two thick legs like Western Poland. On the other hand, they immediately began to repair their relationship with the Soviet Union, hoping that the Soviet elder brother could help do the work of the Germans.

Li Xiaofeng knew Pavel's purpose. He had completely seen the face of the Jews two years ago. In essence, this was also a group of mothers who had milk. And while Pavel came to visit him this time, Ben Gurion was also officially visiting Britain and France, which fully demonstrated that the Jews were still preparing to place bets on both sides, and their perception of the Soviet Union was lower than that of Britain and France.

Think about it. If they really valued their relationship with the Soviet Union, they would not have sent only a former president to play the emotional card. However, the real president visited Britain for the first time after taking office, and then went to France and the United States, without mentioning the plan to visit the Soviet Union at all.

This shows that the Jews still just wanted to cram the Buddha's feet for the moment, but they just wanted to ask the former elder brother to help save the fire. Once the fire is put out, these grandchildren will immediately sprout in solid form!

It is precisely because of seeing through this that he has no interest in Pavel Li Xiaofeng even perfunctorily. Anyway, East Prussia is in front of the Soviet Union. Such a depth of more than 200 kilometers is enough to weaken the power of the three axes of the German Blitz. At least it will not catch the Soviet Union off guard as in history. As for East Prussia, it is not Russia's territory anyway, so it will not be distressed if it is destroyed.

Li Xiaofeng's coldness made Pavel feel cold. He had already had considerable confidence in this visit, believing that as long as he lowered his attitude and gave the Soviets some economic benefits, the Soviet Union would soon leave his past grudges. In addition to the activities of Britain and France, it should not be a problem to overcome the political crisis created by the Germans.

But now it seems that Pavel knows that he is too optimistic. The Soviet Union felt quite cold towards East Prussia. His old friends were too lazy to even say some scenes. Even Trotsky, who is in charge of the country, said clearly: "The problem of East Prussia is foreign internal affairs. The Soviet government has always opposed interfering in other countries' internal affairs. The Soviet government does not hold any position on this issue. As for how to solve this problem, it should be left to the German people and the East Prussian people to choose..."

Logically speaking, Trotsky is a more vigilant person about Germany, so why didn't he speak for the Jews this time? The first reason is that the actions of the Jews in the past two years really disgusted him, and he frequently interfered with the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Soviet Union and the United States, which made Trotsky very annoyed; the second reason is that although Trotsky was wary of Germany's fascist tendencies, he did not need to shout and kill before the Soviet Union and Germany officially broke up. As Li Xiaofeng said, the Soviet Union now has enough strategic buffer zone, and the Germans have not directly threatened the national interests of the Soviet Union, so there is no need to make a fuss. Third, the Soviet Union and Japan are fighting in the Far East. What should they do to provoke Germany at this time? Could it be that they want to fight on two fronts?

Based on national interests, the bargaining chips that the Jews could give were really small, and such trivial benefits were not enough to impress Trotsky.

When Pavel returned from Li Xiaofeng in vain and contacted Ben. Gurion through the embassy that night, and learned from the latter that the British were just fighting them, he was really sad.

"Do you think the French government will essentially support us?"

In response to Pavel's question, Ben Gurion replied with a wry smile: "From my personal observation, the attitudes of the French and the British are consistent. They only have the motivation to curb Germany's ambitions and will not take any practical actions!"

After a moment of silence, Pavel asked again: "What about the United States? Have our friends in the United States done the work of connecting with the US Congress?"

Ben Gurion's bitter smile sounded even more desolate: "...isolationism still controls the US Congress. Americans do not have much interest in anything other than their homeland, and it is impossible to put enough political pressure on Germany..." When he said this, Ben Gurion asked: "Are our Russian friends also ready to stand by?"

Pavel sighed: "The Russians are extremely cold and they are not even perfunctory to us... The situation is quite bad, David, the situation is very bad, we must make the worst plan!"

Ben Gurion fell into a long silence. After a long time, he replied: "After I returned to the country, I immediately convened an emergency cabinet meeting to discuss this issue."

To be honest, Pavel felt that it would be too late to wait for Ben Gurian to come back from the United States to hold an emergency cabinet meeting, but now he is no longer the president after all. He must respect the authority of Ben Gurian and the new cabinet. He can only wait!

But Pavel was not just waiting stupidly. In the Soviet Union, he was running around and constantly trying to find a breakthrough. However, he did not expect that his running was futile. When the Politburo had reached an agreement on the issue of East Prussia, no one had the courage to provoke the authority of the Trotskyists and the Stalin-Sverdlov factions at the same time.

And Pavel didn't know that just as he was running around, Li Erwen also had a secret meeting with a certain immortal, and the core issue they talked about was still the Far East and China.

"You want us to further do the work of the Nanjing National Government and let them not be too weak on the issue of Japan?" Li Erwen smiled and asked back: "What are the benefits of this to our country? You must know that the price to exert such a degree of political influence is quite high!"

You are so wool, Li Xiaofeng complained in his heart that with the British political influence in China, just one sentence is enough for Chiang Kai-shek to weigh for a long time. And doing so will not hinder the interests of the British at all. These damn John Bulls were confused by lard, thinking that he was easy to fool, right?

"Since you have no influence on the Nanjing National Government, then we have nothing to talk about next." Li Xiaofeng didn't have the other party's temper.

To be honest, he never made any hope for Nanjing's anti-Japanese enthusiasm. For Chiang Kai-shek, his core interest was Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Other places were the territory of warlords that needed to be cracked down. Whether it was to use the suppression of bandits and kill two birds with the hands of the Japanese to eliminate dissidents, it was actually the same.

What's more, there is a pro-Japanese faction in Nanjing, which is more than how to Ying Qin. It is really a fantasy to expect them to actively fight against Japan. As long as these people don't give other forces a backlash to fight against Japan, Li Xiaofeng is grateful. In fact, he just hopes that the British can help achieve this. Nanjing will not be defeated by the Soviet Union, but the British father's words still have to listen to a few words.

Now the British actually wanted to use this to quarrel, which made Li Xiaofeng completely unacceptable. For him, the worst thing was that Nanjing would be to pull it back. Anyway, no matter how powerful they were, they wouldn't be able to go anywhere.

"Don't be excited, your temper should be changed. After all, you have entered the Politburo and your horizons have to be broadened, right?" Li Erwen said with a smile, "You are so petty and don't look like a man!"

Li Xiaofeng ignored her and sneered: "If you like a man, you have to accept your political blackmail? Do you think I am an idiot? A stupid woman, it is useless to provoke me. If you are willing to put pressure on Nanjing, then do it. Anyway, that is to protect your own interests. If you don't do it, don't try to quarrel!"

Li Erwen was still calm and said with a smile: "Why are you quarreling? You are so ugly. We just want to exchange it equally."

Li Xiaofeng sneered again: "What is the equivalent exchange method? Is it the ready-made and cheap equivalent exchange?"

"Don't be excited! I said it's an equivalent exchange. As long as you say a word, we can put enough pressure on Nanjing at any time."

"When did my words become so important?" Li Xiaofeng asked back with a sneer.

This time, Learwin didn't go around in circles and said bluntly: "We are interested in some products from Northern Industry. As long as you agree to sell them, everything will be easy!"

Products of Northern Industry? Li Xiaofeng's eyebrows moved slightly. What was the British's idea? He asked quietly: "What products?"

"For example, the PK machine gun and As gun family you developed, as well as Sikorsky's helicopter, right, there is also the No. 54 project, we are all interested."

Li Xiaofeng was a little funny. It seemed that the British had put a lot of effort into northern industry. Otherwise, with the confidentiality level of Project 54, how could they know?

Li Xiaofeng glanced at Li Erwen and said calmly: "The production licenses of PK machine guns and As gun families can be sold to you, provided that the patent usage fee of each gun ranges from 10 to 5 pounds, and at least 10,000 finished products must be introduced from the northern industry."

Li Erwen smiled and said, "Don't you think this is a lion's mouth?"

Li Xiaofeng shrugged and said, "Don't you think the price was even more outrageous when you sold us Maxim's production patents, right? If you can't afford it, then forget it. I don't lack that little money."

Li Xiaofeng remembers it very clearly. Now the British are selecting light machine guns. Historically, the Czech zb-26 won in 1935. So who is better than the zb-26 and the PK? This goes without saying that PK can win in terms of fire sustainability, weight and multi-purpose capability.

Moreover, the Red Army has been equipped with PK machine guns for more than ten years, and its maturity is not comparable to that of ZB-26. At least PK has been tested by war and proved its ability. In fact, after the British got PK machine guns from various channels for testing, they also admitted that this was an epoch-making weapon and wanted to imitate it, but the patent issue restricted it to the death. It was useless to make the British.

This time, the British were preparing to win the pk openly at a weak price, but unexpectedly, Li Xiaofeng was not so easy to fool. Because he never thought about selling the pk to the British.

Realizing that Li Xiaofeng's attitude was tough, Li Erwen decided to put this topic on the spot for the time being, because it was actually that the matter how much attention was paid to machine guns in China. What really interested in China was Sikorsky's helicopter and the mysterious No. 54 Project.

Learwin received instructions to at least find out one of these two projects, and it is best to figure out both projects. Especially the helicopter, which is a completely different aircraft from the previous ones, can hover in mid-air. To be honest, the British really wanted to figure out the true face of the helicopter.

Li Xiaofeng shook his head and pretended to be confused and asked, "Helicopter? It's never heard of, at least I've never heard of Sikorsky's similar products? Where did you get the little news?"

This sentence made Li Erwen feel halfway through his waist. It seems that there is no chance to buy a helicopter, but she refuses to give up: "Stop pretending, we learned from the Japanese that the existence of Sikorsky helicopter..."

Li Xiaofeng was unmoved and said calmly: "Then you just ask Japan to inquire. I can tell you with great certainty that there are no helicopters in Sikorsky!"

Li Erwen was blocked so much that her anger was finally aroused, and she asked angrily: "Then Project 54 does not exist either!"

Li Xiaofeng spread his hands and said, "Of course it doesn't exist, it's unheard of. The intelligence personnel of your MI6 are worse than those of the previous generation, and they will be deceived by some false information..."

Li Erwen walked out of someone's office in a angrily way. She didn't believe someone's nonsense at all: "Send more people immediately and you must penetrate the highest level of northern industry. Before the end of the year, I must see a complete set of instructions on the helicopter and Project 54!"

"Why not sell it to her?" Yakov asked curiously, "With the British's industrial technical capabilities, it is very simple to make breakthroughs in helicopters and tanks, right? We can use this to make a big fuss!"

Li Xiaofeng shook his head and said, "You don't understand. The British are no longer the British before!"

Why do you say that? It is true that after World War I still maintained the style of the world's leader and was still ahead of the world in key technologies (this is no joke). But for the old tree of the British Empire, it was not so easy to bloom new flowers. Due to the limitations of funds, the British defense industry was once very miserable. After entering the mid-1930s, the once dignified Empire of Sun-Downset actually wanted to introduce ZB-26 to the Czech Republic, and even the armored steel that produced George V-class battleships had to be bought from the Czech Republic. It can be seen how lonely the British Empire was at this time.

In fact, the British were ahead of their technology, but due to the constraints of old ideas, the British were quite conservative about how to fight in the future war. The backwardness of military ideas led to the British naturally not keeping up with the situation in developing new weapons. During the entire World War II, there were almost no weapons that could make people shine.

The rifle was Li Enfield, who could not be beaten for thousands of years. The tank troops were firmly tripped by the infantry, and the battleships also made jokes like George V because they had no money. The first country to develop aircraft carriers could only use wasteful things like swordfish. And they obviously suffered enough of the submarine in one battle, but they fell into the same pit in World War II.

Li Xiaofeng knew very well that the British did not lack technology, what they lacked was new thinking, and a window that opened their eyes. It was best to let them still immerse themselves in the afterglow of the empire and euthanize them in World War II, rather than helping them open their eyes. Otherwise, with Britain's technical and industrial capabilities, they would be able to absorb these advanced technical ideas and would soon be innovative.

Therefore, it is very necessary to let the British continue to make trouble in the dark. It is best to let them stand firm and stand still.

"Tell Northern Industry and related enterprises to further strengthen security work, especially to do a good job in counter-espionage work. That woman will not give up easily!"

Around the new product of northern industry, a spy war broke out between Li Erwen and a certain immortal. In the next few years, kgb will play cat and mouse games with MI6, and this situation will continue until the outbreak of World War II.

However, what Li Xiaofeng did not expect was that the angry Li Erwen was not so easy to mess with. He touched a female spy with a disgrace and quickly vented his anger in other ways. In late June, when the Red Army and the Kwantung Army fought on the Mongolian grasslands, the British began to attack...
