    Hall dragged Wa away without taking away a single cloud.

    After quickly stabilizing the situation with lightning speed, Zhang Hanqing took the lead in the complex situation in Northeast China.  Because not only the Japanese have this idea, but the United States is also thinking about it.  The difference is that Japan wants to monopolize it, while the United States wants to share it.

    Historically, U.S. representatives have also agreed to co-management of the Middle East Road. The reason is: "China's management capabilities are insufficient; and the Middle East Road is a world transportation channel and cannot be left to China's disposal. Moreover, since the co-management, the Allied Powers have invested heavily in this road."

    ??¡ª¡ªIn fact, this road is entirely a joint venture between China and Russia, and it has nothing to do with the so-called intervention forces that have just set foot on Chinese and Russian territory!  In any case, a weak country has no diplomacy, and this is still the case after entering the Republic of China. Foreigners have nothing to do with their own talk.  Afterwards, with the note from the Chinese government, Japan, the United States and other relevant countries all took note from the Republic of China government and still proposed the two items decided at the Washington meeting and said they were willing to "jointly" deal with it with China. This made it easy for them to deal with China.  "Condominium".

    Russia also stated that it had no intention of returning the Middle East Railway to China. Later, after the Soviet Red Army successfully defeated all the opposing forces in the territory, and until the establishment of the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union became more and more powerful. It was originally against China.  All kinds of embroideries were meaningless, and the demand for the Middle East Road became stronger. After overcoming the difficulties, the Soviet Union continued to control the Middle East Road.

    In official history, the original young marshal suddenly had a whim and clashed with the Soviet army shortly after the change of flag in Northeast China. The result was a disastrous defeat, which was known in history as the "Middle East Road Incident".  The consequence of this incident was that the former young marshal turned against the Soviet Union, the only country that could put pressure on Japan, resulting in a situation of little international help during September 18th, and then there was no more.  It was not until the Japanese surrender in official history and the founding of New China that the Middle East Road and its affiliated resources were handed over to the Chinese government.

    At this time, China was still very weak, so weak that although Zhang Hanqing knew the future development, he was unable to influence the subsequent situation in Russia.  But one thing that can be done is to make full use of the difficult stage of Soviet Russia to maximize China's interests.  This opportunity will be lost in a moment. Now that we know the attitudes and possible trends of various countries, this is our biggest advantage since time travel.

    There was also an episode: after the three eastern provinces canceled the old Russian envoy treatment, the old Russian party was afraid that its Daosheng Bank would also be taken over, so it flew the French flag as a boycott. However, the contract between China and Daosheng Bank stipulated that the bank  Stocks can only be owned by Chinese and Russian people.  Since the other party violated the rules, Zhang Hanqing can't blame him for making a strange card.  Citing Dowson Bank's breach of contract as an excuse, he announced the abolition of its rights to the Middle East Road, and claimed that he would use the proceeds to assist the Belarusian people in China "to relieve their poverty."

    Not to mention that his foundation was completely wiped out, Zhang Hanqing no longer had to repay the total loan of seven million rubles originally lent to him by Daosheng Bank - the Soviets came to power, the old ruble of Tsarist Russia was banned, and now he doesn't even have a penny.  It¡¯s worth it, Zhang Hanqing is not stupid enough to use new currency or other countries¡¯ currencies to pay off his debts.

    Other countries don¡¯t dare to mess with it, so doesn¡¯t France?  This European power, exhausted after World War I, had not had time to lick its own wounds. How could it do such a thankless thing for the Middle East, which was far away and far beyond its power?  The Russians thought that with the Chinese people's mentality since the Opium War, they were not as afraid of European and American powers, so how could they rashly cause trouble?

    It¡¯s a pity that they met the young marshal, a legendary figure who has insight into the evolution of history.  Zhang Hanqing forcefully passed the "Renewal Contract for the Management of the Eastern Provincial Railway" while talking and laughing, saying: "The Chinese government temporarily acts on behalf of the Russian government to implement all powers of protection, management, and execution of various treaties and contracts, which is officially recognized by China.  The Russian government and the two sides have mutually agreed on the road."  Accordingly, all the interests of Daosheng Bank in Zhongzhong Road were effectively banned, and its assets in Kazakhstan suffered huge losses. Zhang Hanqing took over Zhonghong Road without any effort.

    However, seeing that the Northeastern government of China has actually controlled all the interests of the old Russia in Northern Manchuria, due to changes in Russia's national conditions and relations in the world, in order to prevent it from being attacked from both sides in the Far East, it has softened its attitude toward China.  It¡¯s already inevitable.

    In fact, the Russian Labor Government stated twice in official history that it would return the occupied territories of China on July 25, 1919 and in the summer of 1920.  After everything that was plundered together with the Japanese and the Allied Powers is returned to the Chinese people, we immediately recommend that the Chinese government enter into negotiations on the abolition of the 1896 Treaty, the 1901 Beijing Agreement, and all agreements signed with Japan from 1907 to 1916." (Original text:  : Give up the land and all privileges acquired by the old Russian government through aggression in China. And give up the Boxer Indemnity, and return the Middle East Road to China unconditionally)

    When the news reached Shanghai, the general public welcomed it, and federations from all walks of life went out of their way to acknowledge it.  But the government at that time was afraid thatThe United States was the first to admit that the Soviet Union would be looked down upon by the hostile European, American and Japanese powers, and actually ordered all provinces to ban it.  Due to the deterioration of the domestic economic situation, Soviet Russia desperately wanted to trade with China.  However, the incompetent warlord government has been unable to initiate negotiations, causing China to miss a good opportunity to develop its economy through the power of Soviet Russia.  You must know that although the industrial level of Soviet Russia lags far behind that of Europe and the United States, it is far from the same level as China.  All imperialist countries except the Soviet Union "do business" with China for the purpose of plundering China. They only seek primary raw materials and have no idea of ??improving China's industrial capabilities.

    Now that the situation has taken a turn for the worse, should we raise strong objections (due to the serious situation at home and abroad, all Soviet Russia can do at present is just embellishments in diplomatic terms) or should we just give in?  The Soviet Russian government wisely chose the latter.  Russia has always had the tradition that a gentleman should seek revenge no later than ten years. This opportunity will only come in the future.  But whether there is a chance to make a comeback in the future depends on the opportunity.

    Zhang Hanqing would not give anyone a chance. After a short communication with Sun Liechen, he decided to declare his sovereignty to the world with the fact of being armed.  The three brigades of the Heilongjiang Security Command moved forward separately and first controlled Mudanjiang and Suifenhe in the east. The First Division also moved towards Jiamusi on the Sino-Russian border.  The purpose is to create a fait accompli and prevent the interventionist forces from landing in China.

    Of course, in order to avoid giving excuses to others, Zhang Hanqing used the country's sharp weapons in an emergency to protect the road.  He established the "Middle East Road Protection Army Headquarters". The troops were still the same as those of the Heilongjiang Security Command, with one team and two brands, without any redundant personnel.

    Various countries have opinions on China¡¯s road to regaining the Middle East.

    Because Soviet Russia stopped its troops and made peace with Germany, German and Austrian forces spread throughout Russia, and the Czech army that opposed Soviet Russia was subdued and fell into crisis.  In order to nip the new socialist country in the cradle, Britain, the United States, France, Japan, and Italy jointly proposed sending troops to Siberia to assist the Czech army.  When all countries jointly sent troops to Siberia, they used military transportation relations to ask each country to send a representative to organize a committee in Vladivostok to jointly manage the Siberian and Middle Eastern Railways.  Stephen, the U.S. representative and the technical minister of the committee, requested co-management of the Middle East Road on the grounds that China's management capabilities are insufficient and the Middle East Road is a world transportation thoroughfare and cannot be left to China's disposal.

    The situation has taken a turn for the worse. From China's sole response to Japan to facing the joint pressure of several countries, what should Zhang Hanqing do?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
