Complete victory! Killer! The scene described in Xiao Letian's mouth scared Wu Langeli to the point of fainting!
Is Ulan Geli a coward? Of course not, he has seen a lot of life and death on the battlefield!
Is Ulan Geli afraid of negotiating? Of course not, anyone who can become a minister of a country is absolutely qualified in sophistry!
But Ulan Geli, who was regarded as a strong and brave warrior by Moscow, was actually frightened and fainted by Xiao Letian's words!
Isn't it amazing? Isn’t it incredible? But all this is inevitable. Wulan Geli was completely frightened and fainted by the truth revealed by Xiao Letian.
Negotiations between countries are actually not that complicated. Top-level negotiations are conspiracy. I will openly reveal my trump card, and by the way, I will reach out to reveal your trump card, and then compare your strengths!
What is your ultimate national strategy for Tsarist Russia? You can deceive others, but you can't deceive me, Xiao Letian! I will open it up for you bit by bit, and you, Ulan Geli, can’t deny it at all, because these are all facts!
And our Chinese nation’s strategy is also very clear, which is to exploit Tsarist Russia’s shortcomings without any need for intrigues. If you don’t have a population in the Far East, you just don’t have a population. You can’t change it!
Your logistics costs are too high, just too high. You won’t be able to solve this problem for hundreds of years!
You have reluctantly carried out industrialization, but the products you produce are not competitive. You can't force people to buy your products, right?
You can use your barbaric army to bully the Manchus, but how can you use bayonets to threaten every common person in market competition? You can't even threaten me!
Consumers always want to buy high-quality and low-priced products. If your products are not of high quality at a good price, who will want them?
If Vladivostok and the Far East region do not make money for a long time, they will not attract businessmen. If people cannot make money, it will be more difficult to develop. In the end, as Xiao Letian described, they will become a vassal of the powerful Chinese economy!
This is not a strategy anymore, it is not a conspiracy, this is just explaining the truth to you frankly and honestly! Let me teach you a lesson from Tsarist Russia, okay? It’s free and free of charge!
Ulan Geli didn't want to see such a decaying hell scene, but he didn't want to see it and he had no way to solve these shortcomings. Not only was he unable, but everyone in Russia was unable to do anything!
Getting sick is not scary, the most scary thing is getting terminally ill and then telling you clearly!
When Xiao Letian saw that Wulan Geli had fainted, he quickly called his attendants to call for a doctor. In fact, Wulan Geli was not ill, but he was too excited for the moment!
A little ice water was sprinkled on his neck, and some ice-cold soda water was given to him, and he soon woke up!
At this time, Wulan Geli seemed to have had his soul sucked out. He looked at Xiao Letian with empty eyes, and allowed the doctor next to him to check his pulse without ever leaving his eyes.
Xiao Letian felt a little hairy at the end. He always felt that the light in Ulan Geli's eyes and pupils was not his own, but the eyes of countless Russian elites, even the dead Peter the Great and the ancestors of Tsarist Russia!
There are questions, pleadings, doubts, sadness and anger...a mess of emotions gathered together!
"Xiao Letian...you...can you tell me what to do?"
Wulan Geli suddenly asked such a question, which surprised everyone present. You are an envoy of an enemy country. What will we do if you come to negotiate with us?
But Xiao Letian understood his emotions. At this moment, Ulan Geli was really just asking this Eastern scholar for advice as an ordinary Russian!
At this moment, he did not regard Xiao Letian as the head of state or the leader of an enemy country. He only regarded him as an ordinary university professor and an ordinary scholar who wrote books and biographies!
Xiao Letian shook his head, "No solution! This is really a geopolitical shortcoming. There is no way. Who could let God leave you in this bitter cold place?"
"Who allowed your civilization to start so late?"
"What's even more terrible is that if you had used your method of military expansion a little further back, even a hundred or two hundred years ago, you would have really succeeded!"
"But now, the world has become smaller, and war is no longer a matter between two countries or one region! If a war breaks out anywhere on the earth, countries around the world will get involved!"
"This kind of mutual restraint and entanglement of mutual interests is too troublesome. The old routine of direct military occupation adds a lot of obstacles!"
"War! No matter who wins, there will always be unhappy countries. No matter who loses, there will always be countries that are happy to celebrate. No matter where you fight, as long as the purpose is for the industrial revolution and the interests of the global ocean, then There will definitely be interference from Britain, France, Germany, the United States and other countries..."
"Including me, the Chinese, will also interfere!"
"Hey... it's better than a hundred or two hundred years ago. Everyone is on a continent independently. No matter how fierce the Far East is, Britain and France are beyond their reach, and no one can interfere!"
“In this day and age, that is no longer possible!”
Xiao Letian looked at Ulan Geli with clear eyes, "Mr. Minister, I can give you a lesson... In the future world, there will definitely be wars, but in the future era, wars are not just about whether the soldiers are brave or not, but whether they are well-equipped. If it’s not sophisticated, you won’t have much money!”
"The future war will actually focus on two things. The first is whether you can fight it out and take it back...do you have the ability to cease war freely?"
"Second, you must ensure that every war is a profitable war, not a money-losing war!"
"Only when you can do these two things can you start a war. Otherwise, provoking any war... is suicide!"
At this point, Wulan Geli could not say anything anymore. He had to admit that the Chinese were in an invincible position now that they had Xiao Letian!
This terrifying Eastern philosopher has already glimpsed the future development direction of the human world. How can he still fight? There is no way to be an enemy of him!
"You...why are you telling me this?"
"It's very simple... Please send the minister to Moscow exactly what I said, and tell it to the Tsar and the senior officials of your country!"
"Perhaps you senior officials in Tsarist Russia have a wise man who is more powerful than me. He can solve these stubborn diseases that I can't do anything about!"
"If there is such a person, please introduce me to him... If not, then think about it carefully. Should we continue to fight this battle, or should we think about it and stop it?"
"But remember... hurry up! Winter will pass soon. Next spring, the latest weapons and reinforcements sent by Emperor Tongzhi to the Western Regions will cross the Tianshan Mountains!"
"Are you really going to wait for the Zeppelin airship to arrive in the Ili Valley? And then the siege mortars will be set up under your noses? By then, if you want to cease the war, I'm afraid you won't even have a chance!"
