Chapter 234 The Cut-in

Ye Mian and Liao Ke laughed: "Mr. Zhou is really quick to speak! Well, I have already said the conditions of the Russian government. Zhang Jun withdrew from North Korea and captured Liaodong!"

Who will North Korea give it to? Don't you recognize the Seoul puppet government?"

"Please rest assured that there will be a government in Pyongyang that maintains good relations with Zhang Jun!" Ye Menliaoco said.

"Is it your puppet government?"

"Strictly speaking, this is a government that maintains friendly relations with Russia and Zhang Jun at the same time, and it will be the strong backing of Zhang Jun."

"So, where is Zhang Jun's territory?"

"Liaodong, and the whole Manchuria!" Yemen Liaoko said: "For the needs of the Southern Manchurian Railway, the Russian government will help Zhang Jun complete the actual control of the whole Manchuria! The Russian government only needs Lushun, but has no sovereignty claim on Lushun. It just hopes that Mr. Zhou will lease Lushun to Russia.

Zhou Charter secretly sneered. The appetite of the Russians is bigger than that of the Japanese! She wants more than just a Lushun! What she wants is North Korea and the whole Northeast!

"So, Mr. Yemen Liaoko, what will the Russian government think of Zhang Jun's control over the Northeast? In other words, what is Zhang Jun's status in the northeast?

Yemenlio Koran said: "In the history of China, there are many precedents of local separation. In your history books, you always degrade the dividers and think that they are obstacles to national unity! However, Europeans have their own unique views on the evaluation of separatists. Powerful separatists are the protectors of peace and prosperity! It can even be said that separation is the responsibility and obligation of the strong! Especially in the 19th century, when the corruption of the Qing Dynasty was hopelessly declining, Mr. Zhou should take the initiative to take the responsibility of maintaining peace! I believe that if Mr. Zhou occupies the whole Manchuria, it will benefit the people of Manchuria.

Ye Mian Liaoke's words moved Zhou Charter's heart!

Diverate one side and occupy the mountain as the king!

Zhou Charter has never had such an idea before.

However, in fact, Zhang Jun's occupation of northern North Korea is a separatist force! Although, this state of separation was forced to Liangshan by the imperial court.

Zhou Charter suddenly realized that the imperial court had set up a defense against Zhang Jun. In fact, he had already regarded him as a separatist!

"What if I don't agree?" Zhou Charter said slowly. He remembered Shi Jingying! The famous emperor lived under the shadow of the Khitan master all his life, and finally became famous for thousands of years!

Ye Mian Liaoke laughed and said, "Well, with all due respect, Zhang Jun is very strong, but after all, it is a lonely army! In terms of Zhang Jun's current situation in North Korea, no matter who is the final winner of this war, it is clear that Zhang Jun and Mr. Zhou will never be a winner. On the contrary, no winner will tolerate the existence of Zhang Jun!"

"Who is the winner you mentioned?"

"Japanese, Russians, Koreans, and even the court of the Qing Dynasty, theoretically, can also be the candidates for winners. Only you and Zhang Jun are not included! Unless you are the first to be invincible! This invincible is the northeast of China, because in the northeast, Russia and Mr. Zhou's interests are the same!"

"You are asking me to be the second Shi Jingxuan!" Zhou Charter said coldly.

Baraufu interrupted: "I have heard of Shi Jingxuan, who was an ascetic emperor of your five generations in China. He did a lot of things, but was eventually scolded by the world. In fact, in your history, there are many heroes who rely on external forces to realize their personal ambitions. Han Gaozu once compromised with the Huns, and Tang Taizong also made concessions to Tubo. Personally, I personally think that Shi Jingzhen's tragedy lies not in the strategy he implemented, but in his wisdom is not enough to undertake the great historical mission. ! Mr. Zhou, whether to become Shi Jingying or Tang Taizong depends on your wisdom!"

"I'm just a martial artist," Zhou Charter shook his head: "I don't have that kind of ambition and ability. What is Zhang Jun's strength? Your spy system should be very clear. This army will never complete the historical mission you mentioned, so whether it is Shi Jingying or Tang Taizong, it has nothing to do with me.

Baraufu said, "Mr. Zhou, don't jump to conclusions."

Zhou Charter stood up with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Palau, for your hospitality. I think it's time for me to say goodbye."

Baraufu also stood up: "The door to the dialogue of the Russian government is open to Mr. Zhou at any time."

"Thank you!" Zhou Charter nodded to Balaofu and Yemenko and turned out of the hall.

Baraufu saw Zhou Charter leave the living room, turned to Ye Men Liaoco and said, "I like this young man very much. He knows very well what he is doing, so his decision makes sense."

"We don't have a chance?" Ye Menliaoco looked pale.

"It's not necessarily!" Balaofu said, "Maybe the court of the Qing Dynasty will help us facilitate this matter."

"This is impossible!" Yemen Liaoke shook his head: "How can a highly centralized government allow the existence of a local separatist!"

Baraufu patted Yemenlyoco on the shoulder: "Yemenlyoco, the high centralization of the Central Empire, has seen a harbinger of disintegration. The Japanese attack hit the crumbling building of the Qing Dynasty again! I think we can wait and see that someone will be willing to be the spokesperson for Russia's interests!"

......

The snow-covered street is bustling with shops on both sides of the street, and pedestrians are well dressed and orderly.

The prosperity of Zalantun benefited from the gathering of Russian merchants. At the end of the 19th century, in the Qing Dynasty, wherever Westerners gathered, it would always show an illusion of prosperity, such as Tianjin, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

It is a kind of prosperity imposed by external forces. The price of this prosperity is that 99 percent of China's regions and people live in deep trouble!

Zhang Zuolin walked behind Zhou Charter and whispered, "Brother, the Northeast is a good place. It is rich in minerals and the land is fertile and oily. If we can occupy the Northeast, not to mention the wood of the Xing'an Mountains alone can support our Zhang Jun for ten or eight years!"

Zhou Charter glanced at Zhang Zuolin: "Do you want to be the king of the Northeast?"

Zhang Zuolin smiled and said, "Don't lie in front of the eldest brother. If you give me a man, I really want to coil down the Northeast. Damn, the corrupt officials in the imperial court don't work hard and make the good Northeast ugly. I'm not talking big. If the Northeast comes to my hands, damn it, I can let every family eat pork stewed vermicelli!"

"Pork stewed vermicelli, it turns out that you are also promising!" Guo Erbar sneered.

"Guo Erwan, don't underestimate the pork stewed vermicelli, so that every family in China can eat this, even the emperor and the empress dowager can't do it!" Zhou Charter sighed, "The problem is that the Russians have targeted the Northeast and the Japanese!"

Zhang Zuolin nodded: "Yes, the Russians want us to give up North Korea, just to use North Korea as a springboard for their occupation of the northeast!" If we give up North Korea, we will win the heart of the Russians. And because we don't have a rear base, we can only be at the mercy of the Russians!"

Zhou Charter was secretly surprised that Zhang Zuolin, a bandit, had an excellent overall view.

Qian Yougui asked, "Master, what about the 300,000 taels of silver?"

"That's the Russian bait! I can't take it!" Zhang Zuolin said

Zhou Charter laughed and said, "That's what I exchanged for American ginseng!" There is a commercial contract, why don't I want it? The money is expensive. Go and get the silver back immediately. Let's go back to Pyongyang immediately.

"Aren't you waiting for Zhao Zhenglun and the others?" Guo Er pole asked.

"You go first, intercept them on the road, and let them go straight back to Pyongyang and don't come to Zalantun."

"So in such a hurry?"

Zhou Charter looked back at the spire mansion of Palau and sighed, "The Russians, Li Hongzhang, and even the Empress Dowager Buddha know our whereabouts. Son of a bitch, there are anti-bones in Zhang Jun!"

"Damn it, which bastard eats inside and out!" Guo Erpole scolded hatefully, "I striped his skin!"

"Actually, this is secondary." Zhou Charter said, "The Spring Festival is about to happen. I don't think the Japanese will miss this opportunity to attack. We are going to fight!"

Guo Erpole laughed and said, "Good luck! I haven't started it for a long time, and the second rod is very itchy! Division commander, please, after returning to North Korea, let me go back to the army. Damn, I'm on the Datong River. Let's see which little Japanese dares to come!"

As he spoke, he suddenly saw a noise in the crowd facing Yao Xi, and a person separated the crowd and rushed to come.

Guo Erpa shouted, "Da son of a bitch, Yao Xi, why did he come here?" Didn't this guy go back to Pyongyang?

Zhang Zuolin was also full of doubts: "Brother, is there something wrong?"

Zhou Charter's heart skipped a moment. Yao Xi was ordered to escort Mrs. Qin and Zhao Qiaoer to Pyongyang. Now he ran to Zhalantun alone. Could there be something wrong with Mrs. Qin and Zhao Qiaoer?

I saw Yao Xi sweating profusely and with water smoke on his head. He took three steps and two steps. He ran to Zhou Charter and gasped and shouted, "Big..."

Guo Erbar said angrily, "Big fart! You're fucking talking nonsense! What about the old lady? Where's Zhao Qiaoer?

"The old lady and Zhao Zhao Qiaoer are all arranged in Pyongyang." Yao Xi said with gasp.

Zhou Charter took a long breath: "Why did you come here alone? Didn't you see Zhao Zhenglun and Liu Yingshu?"

Yao Xi finally recovered: "They have returned to Pyongyang."

"What? Who let them go back? Guo Er pole shouted.

"It's me..."

Guo Erpole shouted, "Damn Yao Xi, you are an adjutant, and you dare to fake the order of the teacher!"

Zhou Charter hurriedly waved his hand: "Let Yao Xiba finish speaking. Yao Xi, is there any movement of the Japanese in Seoul?

"No."

"What are you doing here?"

"Congratulations, big brother! Brother Hexi!" Yao Xi said with sweat.
