.

At the Presidential Palace, Zhao Gang put down the contract and closed his eyes gently. He wandered around. Zhao Gang opened his eyes and wrote a few words on a piece of paper, and handed them to the guards. The guards quickly walked out, and there were only Tang and Zhao in the room.

"Shaoyi, what do you think of this secret agreement?"

Since I asked myself to talk, Tang Shaoyi also expressed his questions

"Why are the Japanese so kind-hearted? They give us such great benefits. They don't even have several machinery manufacturers, but they even have to provide us with equipment, and the price is half lower than that of the European and American powers. They also have to buy steel from our country at a high price, join our country to attack Russia, and divide the Russian territory they have won equally."

After hearing this, Zhao Gang nodded. He has always attached great importance to Tang Shaoyi, but Tang Shaoyi still did not disappoint him today.

"These are all very abnormal. Once things are abnormal, there will definitely be a monster in one place. As long as we understand that the monster is there, we will take the initiative and we can design the other party in reverse."

"Where is Japan's mind?" After listening to Tang Shaoyi's words, Zhao Gang already understood the Japanese's ideas. Compared with the practices of later generations, he had already understood seven or eight in his heart.

"I don't know this, I think Japan mostly wants to get it back to Hokkaido."

At this time, the door opened, and the guard came in with a few documents and placed it on the table. Zhao Gang said as he gave the case files to Tang Shaoyi one by one.

"This is the British Armstrong Shipyard. Two Mikasa-class battleships have completed the launch mission and are on their way to Nagasaki. Mikasa-class battleships are the class battleships ordered by Japan from the UK in 1894. There are two of them in the same class, namely "Mikasa" and "Asakura". They adopt the latest artillery techniques, armor, defense and power designs, so they are classified as first-class. 4305 mm main gun, millimeter secondary gun, 18 knots of speed, and a standard platoon of 15,140 tons."

"It can be said that the combat effectiveness of the Mikasa-class battleship is still above the latest "magnificent" level of Britain, much stronger than the three battleships in our country."

Tang Shaoyi asked back:

"Are the Japanese dragging the time. They dragged back to these two main battleships and started a war with us?"

Zhao Gang smiled and said:

"Then I'm not afraid. The strength of our navy is not bad for Japan. If Japan loses again, it will have to cut Tokyo to me. I don't think he has the courage."

While talking and laughing, I handed over another copy

"The current Russian Tsar Nicholas II was once slashed in the head by Japanese police while visiting Japan, leaving behind the sequelae of migraine. It is said that he once vowed to wash Japan bloodily."

Zhao Gang smiled again

“Look at this.”

"The new Russian governor will announce at the tsar's throne ceremony that the current governor will temporarily act as the governor of the Far East."

"And this one."

"Russia and Germany had a firefight in Poland, and the situation is unclear now, but it is probably not going to develop into a large-scale war."

Giving all the information in hand to Tang Shaoyi, Zhao Gang smiled and said:

"Shaoyi, whether you can teach the Japanese a profound lesson depends on you."

Tang Shaoyi laughed too

"This time, we must let the Japanese know that they are still far from playing the tricks."

The next day, Komatsu Sutaro met Tang Shaoyi, and Tang Shaoyi was covered in spring breeze.

"Komatsu-kun. We are all friendly neighbors, and we have agreed to several terms of your country."

Komatsu Sutaro's heart was raised to his throat and he asked nervously, "Mr. Tang, is there any problem?"

"A small question, regarding the equipment provided to us by your country, we must ensure that we can produce qualified products and no maintenance fees will be charged within three years."

"Ah!!" Komatsu Sutaro didn't expect that this was the condition. Their wishful thinking was to sell the equipment to the Northeast Republic at a low price, but a large number of parts needed to be replaced every year in these equipment. At that time, you can earn money when collecting parts fees. If according to what Tang Shaoyi said, then this transaction can be easily accompanied.

"Is there any problem? Is your country trying to sell some junk to our country?" Tang Shaoyi asked loudly.

"No. No, my country and your country have such a thousand-year-old neighbor? Absolutely no." At this point, Komatsu Sutaro had to pinch his nose and admit it.

"The steel thing could not be sold to you, but considering the friendship between our two countries, we decided to give your country a quota of 5 tons of steel every year, which is the same as that sold to Russia."

"We have a lot of intention to jointly attack Russia, but it is untrustworthy to say that your country does not have any tokens to us. How can we win the trust of our President? Therefore, only a formal secret treaty will be recognized by our country. Apart from that, nothing can be done."

Komatsu Sutaro had no choice but to take out another contract from his clothes and hand it over to Tang Shaoyi.

"This was written by our emperor himself, and it was also stamped with the Great Seal of the Emperor of my country. Is this OK?"

Tang Shaoyi took it and looked

"no problem."

After saying that, he stamped his official seal on the document in duplicate, so that the secret agreement between Japan and Dong was completed. Both parties were in a good mood. Komatsu Sutaro returned to Japan that night without waiting for the next day.

Tang Shaoyi here was even more quick. He didn't even change his clothes. He rode his horse to Liaoyang, where he transferred to Vladivostok, and took the train to Boli in the morning, and then transferred to Chita. After losing the fertile outer Xing'an Mountains, the Russian army had to set up this poor town as the Governor's Office. In the Governor's Office, the originally wise Governor had become a drunkard, and the defeat in the Far East made him lose all hope.

When Tang Shaoyi saw Alekuseyev, he was also shocked. The people in front of him were curled up in the corner, unable to see their faces clearly. From the side, they looked over their faces, and they probably ignored them for many days. There was some liquid hanging on them, but they didn't wipe them. Seeing that Alekuseyev was so desolate, Tang Shaoyi felt sad. Although the Northeast Republic defeated Alekuseyev, Zhao Gang and others had a high opinion of Alekuseyev, believing that his defeat was just a bad luck. If the 17th had supported one more day or the fortress was one day earlier, the outcome of the war would probably be reversed. Before Zhao Gang appeared, Alekuseyev relied on the power of the Russian Far East to suppress the Qing Dynasty and Japan, and obtained hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land within more than ten years. Such a hero has now become a drunk man. Tang Shaoyi couldn't help but sigh at the impermanence of fate.

"It's so a pity that the hero who once dominated the Far East has now become a drunk."

Hearing Tang Shaoyi's words, Alekuseyev slowly raised his head, his eyes were muddy.

"You... say...who is...drunk!"

Later, the turbid eyes seemed to become sharper.
