    Zhukovsky's tone was a bit anxious. In fact, in order to avoid leaking the news, Simon Petliura did not mention a word in the secret message to Zhukovsky that this restart of negotiations was just a delaying strategy by the German-Austrian and Ukrainian governments.  , so Zhukovsky sincerely believed that he was authorized to conduct secret negotiations with the Volga Federation on the establishment of diplomatic relations and mutual recognition of a ceasefire and demarcation between the two sides.

    And this negotiation must be hidden from the Germans and an agreement must be reached in the shortest possible time. After the ground forces of the Allied Powers launch an offensive, or the new air strikes of the Allied Air Force cause serious damage to the city and cause huge casualties to the Ukrainian people,  It's too late to regret it!  Fastest update, all text typed by hand

    Vasily Nikolayevich Pepelyaev sighed, waved his hand, and motioned for the entourage of both sides to exit first. Although Zhukovsky was puzzled, he honestly took it as his own.  A few assistants and translators went out first. Obviously, his old friend, the Prime Minister of the Volga Federation in front of him, had something to say to him, especially when Zhukovsky saw that Prime Minister Pepe even appointed his deputy.  After Delyanov also sent him away.

    In the huge VIP reception room, only the Prime Minister of the Volga Federation Pepelyaev and the Plenipotentiary Diplomatic Representative of Ukraine in Samara Zhukovsky were left. Until now, Zhukovsky looked at him with expectant eyes.  , Pepelyayev stared at this guy for a long time, and then said, read the latest chapter

    "I'm talking about Nikolai Nikolayevich, are we old friends? I never treated you badly in Petersburg or Moscow, right? Today, on behalf of the Ukrainian government, you came to me twice to negotiate and protest.  I treated you politely and didn't bother you much, right? If the negotiation between the two parties broke down last time, your status as a representative must have expired when your delegation evacuated, right? The state guesthouse in Samara confiscated one cent of the room fee from you.  , continue to let you live comfortably in the luxurious suite? "

    Zhukovsky's heart tightened when he heard this, his old face turned red and he said quickly, "Of course, our friendship is still there, but most of the time, when it comes to negotiations between governments between countries, we can only deal with business matters, right?  ? What happened to you? Did you get scolded by your Chinese king or something? Don¡¯t give me a bad look. Petlyura is still waiting for me to give him a reply. If peace talks can be restarted, the people of Eastern Ukraine  You will suffer less punishment, and you won¡¯t have to drag your family with you to flee to Western Ukraine!¡±

    "Really? Then why are you deceiving me with such a sincere face? If it weren't for our Commander-in-Chief's advice, I, the Prime Minister of the Volga Federation, would have been tricked by your Ukrainian government. I am not an idle playboy now.  Chatting and spanking, we all spent our time in Petersburg drinking wine, dancing and polka.

    I am now the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Volga Federation. There are more than 10 million people in the 1.2 million square kilometers of land under my command waiting for me to support me. I am their father.  Why is it actually your Simon Petliura's delaying strategy?  Where do you put this old friend of mine?  Is there such a thing among old friends that would cause trouble?  "

    While Pepelyaev said this with a gloomy face, he leaned over and took out a cigarette from the cigarette can on the coffee table. Zhukovsky hurriedly grabbed a match and lit it for the Prime Minister of the Volga Federation.  Monk Zhang Er said in confusion,

    "What is a delaying tactic? Who said we are using a delaying tactic? I happily took the time to negotiate with you after receiving a secret message from the Prime Minister of Ukraine's ruling cabinet Simon Petliura. Petliura is not a generous guy, but  Isn¡¯t the price offered this time much better than last time? To put it bluntly, hasn¡¯t the Ukrainian government already hinted that it will join the Allied Powers and gradually force Germany to withdraw its troops from Ukrainian soil? What else do you want from us? Do you know who is on the Eastern Front now?  The country¡¯s military is no match for the German army, and we cannot help but suffer when Ukraine is occupied by the German army!¡±

    Nikolai Nikolayevich Zhukovsky cried out for injustice when he saw the sky-high price, but his heart trembled, and he began to wonder if Simon Petliura really had no intention of seeking peace and was just delaying the war.  He actually kept himself, the plenipotentiary representative of Ukraine, in the dark. Didn¡¯t this *** put me on the fire and roast me, making me no longer human inside and out?  Doesn¡¯t the Ukrainian government intend to cede territory and seek peace?  Just want to delay the arrival of German reinforcements?  Could this be the case?  This is very likely to be the case. No wonder I am wondering why Petliura agreed to establish the Volga-Ukrainian Union and ceded the Krim Island as a hostage before negotiating an agreement?

    Thinking of this, Zhukovsky¡¯s face became embarrassed and ugly, but he refused to admit defeat and shouted in frustration,

    "Who said we were delaying the war? We are sincerely seeking peace! Your commander-in-chief should not fall for the instigation and deception of other useful people and miss the opportunity for peace. How many passionate men will fight on both sides? And again?  How many people are displaced?Haven't you thought about all this?

    Doesn¡¯t the Volga Federation keep saying that everything is for the welfare of the people?  Why do you say one thing and do another?  Might cannot defeat truth!  It's not just the big fists that make sense, not to mention, are the Germans so easy to deal with?  It¡¯s almost the same, Vasily Nikolayevich¡­¡±

    July 29, 1918 21:45 VIP reception room of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Volga Federal Government Building, Samara

    "Nikolai Nikolayevich, if you regard me as an old friend and still remember our friendship in Petersburg and Moscow, and there is no one else here now, tell me the truth, you  Is Simon Petliura trying to stall the war? He has no intention of negotiating peace with us at all. The so-called cession of the Crimean Peninsula, the withdrawal and completion of the handover within three days, and the two sides sitting down again to discuss how to establish the Volga-Ukraine Alliance are all  Are you fooling us? The purpose is to buy time for the German reinforcements!"

    The Prime Minister of the Volga Federation is now looking like a glaring King Kong, trying to scare his old friend who is a few years younger than him in front of him. Didn't this guy keep saying that everyone is doing his own business for his own master? So I, Pepe, don't care about my image and want to scare you.  , let¡¯s see if this guy is an insider who is acting without conscience to deceive himself, or is he really deceived by Simon Petliura and his government to act as a leader and be used as a gunman?  ?
