    "Dear Paul! I express my appreciation for the U.S. government's emergency reinforcement of the French front. The United States is worthy of being a responsible big country, and of course it is also an example for the Allied partners to follow and learn from!" Wang Geng smiled and patted Rui Enshi's feet.  The Zhu Erdian and Kant on the side are both very tasty.

    But the situation is stronger than the people. After three and a half years of European war, the United States and Japan have turned from debtor countries before the war to creditor countries. Britain and France are both saddled with debts. The gold beans in the national treasury are not in a big move.  Once it entered the U.S. treasury, the Japanese took advantage of it and robbed it.

    "Gun, President Wilson hopes that China can take practical actions this time instead of making general remarks. After all, the Chinese Army has been established for a full year, and your troops on the Western Front are actually just an advance detachment. This is different from what China is doing now.  Its international status is completely disproportionate! At this time when Britain and France are in such a tight situation on the Western Front, does the Chinese government want the Allies to fail on the Western Front? "

    A year passed in a flash, and American Minister Rui Enshi¡¯s Chinese became more and more authentic. The man¡¯s sharp eyes were staring at the boss of the Chinese participating army in front of him. It was obvious that he wanted to get a positive answer from him before he could go back to the mission.

    "Paul, since China followed the United States into the war a year ago, it will not shirk its responsibilities. If China must send troops, we can only surround Wei and save Zhao. Before we have a strong navy, please forgive me, the Chinese Army  I won¡¯t board someone else¡¯s ocean liner for that ethereal journey with an unpredictable future!¡±

    Wang Geng¡¯s face straightened, and he had obviously drawn his own bottom line, that is, don¡¯t even think about taking an ocean liner to go to France to participate in the Western Meat Grinder, there is no way!

    "Surround Wei and rescue Zhao? Gun, do you mean to advance westward from Siberia and the Ural region? That's beyond our reach!" Zhu Erdian and Kande's eyes lit up when they heard this, and then they looked disappointed. At this time, anything they could catch was nothing.  It's good to go back with both hands, but how can we gain strength from the eastern front?

    Hearing this, Rui Enshi nodded slightly, took out a Camel cigarette and lit it without comment, and listened to what Wang Geng said.

    "According to the analysis of my staff headquarters, there is only one reason why Germany's Ludendorff postponed the spring offensive that was supposed to be launched in March, and that is that the situation in Russia makes Germany have worries about its future. Last year's Ulyanov  Comrade took a German train back to start a revolution, and later he insisted on making peace with Germany even at the cost of ceding huge territory and population! "

    Wang Geng paused for a moment. Seeing that the ministers from the United States, Britain and France were waiting for him to continue, he continued,

    "For Germany, it doesn't matter what color Russia is, as long as Russia accepts the current borders on the Eastern Front and stops causing trouble to Germany on the Eastern Front, so that Ludendorff can transfer the main force to the west to deal with the Western Front, and  Obviously, if the Soviet Russian regime is in danger or faces the danger of being overthrown, Germany will not sit idly by and ignore it. Even if the Soviet Russian regime really wants to collapse, Germany must support a new Russian regime that is pro-Allied!"

    Wang Geng¡¯s tone was unhurried, but he spoke with confidence.

    "Accept the current borders on the Eastern Front? How can that be done? Finland, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Poland, Ukraine, Georgia and Azerbaijan are all occupied by Germany. Although the local governments have declared autonomy and independence, they are not yet supported by Germany.  How can we agree to this as a puppet regime? The Allies will never tolerate it!¡±

    French Minister Kant couldn¡¯t help shouting!  If the current battle line is used as a border truce, then the Allies will really become the victor, and they will be the victor with a huge territory and huge resources. How is this possible? It is absolutely not allowed!

    "The timing of the German spring offensive coincided with the moment when Soviet Russia took advantage of Kolchak's withdrawal from Kazan to Ufa to stage a coup to overthrow the Provisional Self-Government of Siberia and gain a firm foothold. In other words, the Soviet Russian regime became more and more  If it is safe, Germany will be more assured of the Eastern Front, and can focus its energy on the Western Front to deal with the Allies. On the contrary, if the Soviet Russian regime is in danger, Germany will not ignore it, but will once again mobilize troops from the Western Front to the east to stabilize the situation."

    Wang Geng¡¯s words obviously made some sense. The ministers from the United States, Britain and France were a little doubtful, but they urged him to continue.

    "If Germany wants to reduce the pressure on the Western Front, it must create enough crises and troubles for the Soviet Russian regime on the Eastern Front. Kolchak's westward attack should be stronger and more violent. In order to relieve him of worries,  To use our Chinese idiom, we must force them to cross the Ural Mountains and head towards Moscow!¡±

    Wang Geng waved his hand, made a downward slashing gesture, and said with a smile.

    "Kolchak is a good naval general, but commanding the army is a fool's errand. The hundreds of thousands of White Guards under him are just a bunch of rabble. It's really unreliable to count on them!"The minister obviously does not like the strength of the White Guards at all. In fact, the Czech Army, which is nominally part of the French Army, can hardly urinate in a pot in Kazan, Ufadu and Kolchak. It is just writing all day long.  The French government is plagued by verbal and legal battles.

    "Now that the Allied Powers have recognized Kolchak as the supreme consul of Russia, and Krasnov and Denikin's White Guards have also recognized Kolchak's ruling status, everyone, I think it is necessary for the Allied Powers to give Kolchak more  With all the support, from arms to food, that Czech Legion failed more than succeeded, so we should simply disband and repatriate!¡±

    Wang Geng¡¯s face straightened and he revealed his real suggestion!

    "Gun, let's put aside the Allied Powers' aid to Kolchak. When you talk about encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao, you won't just use Kolchak and his White Guards as boos, right? China and Japan have taken so many advantages in Siberia.  It's time to take responsibility!" The French minister was a bit arrogant in his words.

    Wang Geng glanced at this guy and thought that this guy looked so ugly. If it weren't for the sake of Zhu Erdian and Rui Enshi, he wouldn't be allowed to enter the gate of his Nanyuan headquarters at all!

    "Gun, let's talk about how to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao!" Zhu Erdian came out to smooth things over. This guy helped Wang Geng a lot in the process of introducing British aircraft and engines. Wang Geng still owed him a lot of favors.

    "It's very simple. Since the Allied Powers have recognized Kolchak's regime, they should make certain commitments to Russia's future eastern border. This is the best way to eliminate mutual concerns and wariness. Otherwise, they will worry about Japan all day long.  He took advantage of him and planned Russia's Omsk and Ufa, and there's no way this matter can go forward!" Wang Geng said with a smile.

    "Gun, you are so cunning. The Chinese government is probably asking Kolchak to formally recognize the sovereignty of the 2.11 million square kilometers of territory you have recovered on behalf of Russia, right?" Ruienshi smiled and pointed out Wang Geng's thoughts.

    "The Chinese government has never had any ambitions for the territories of other countries. We only take back the land that should belong to us. This has been made very clear by the Chinese government in previous notes to various countries!" Wang Geng flicked it into the ashtray.  He flicked off the cigarette ashes and said with a normal expression.

    "Gun, you don't have to worry. Didn't we all promise to confirm the sovereignty of the part of the land that China took back after the war? Why do you have to worry!" Zhu Erdian couldn't help but said.

    "I'm not in a hurry. What's anxious is Japan. They now occupy the eastern part of the West Siberian Plain, with at least 1.6 million square kilometers of land and a population of nearly 2 million. This is not land in Japan's history. It's unclear whether they can keep it.  It¡¯s hard to say, I¡¯m not speaking for Japan, but it¡¯s the fact that if China and Japan want to work together to make a substantial contribution to the war situation on the Eastern Front, they must resolve border and territorial issues!¡±

    Wang Geng bluntly pointed out the essence of the problem. Japan is now eating from the bowl and looking at the pot. Not counting the eastern part of the West Siberian Plain, it also wants to take over the western plain near Omsk, and Gao  Erchak's regime regards the Siberian Plain and the Ural region as Russia's unstoppable land and back garden. If this problem is not resolved, let alone joining hands to advance eastward, it will be a good thing if they don't start a fight!

    The envoys from the United States, Britain and France looked at each other in confusion after hearing this. How could these three guys not know what Wang Geng said? However, just one Czech Legion caused great resentment on Kolchak's side. They had to convince Kolchak and  It is really difficult for Japan to accept the current situation in Siberia!

    "The matter of territory ultimately depends on national strength. You are just worried that Kolchak will not betray the so-called Russian interests. However, during the expansion of Tsarist Russia, it annexed and occupied so many khanates, and it only took a hundred years.  Kolchak has the ability to re-create the glory of the Tsar of the year. Although it is not too late to settle the accounts after autumn when he becomes stronger, what is the use of being greedy for so many properties that have been robbed when he can't even protect himself?  "

    Wang Geng is obviously well aware of the psychological activities of the ministers from the United States, Britain and France. Shi Shiran pointed out the essence of the problem, or in other words, he pointed out an opportunistic path for Kolchak and the future Russian regime.

    For Wang Geng, the "Treaty of Nerchinsk between China and Russia" is just a legal basis he found. Whether China can take back and keep the 2.11 million square kilometers of territory in China's Northern Federal Autonomous Region depends on China's future national strength. It cannot defeat others.  Sooner or later, people will have to snatch it away and beat others. Who limits it to only 2.11 million square kilometers?
