A true master negotiator will never get hung up on the terms of a treaty, let alone argue over words and phrases! The real master is to deny you from the depths of his soul, to attack you and make you realize that you will never have any hope of victory!
Let me tell you the truth and let you know that you have no possibility of victory in the military field. You are no match for industrialization, economic development, commerce and trade... in all aspects, and you will deny them all!
And you can’t refute the whole process of denial, you can only accept it! I have always been humble and courteous, without any sign of contempt.
I just use the most polite words and the gentlest smile to tell you the irrefutable truth "You are trash!"
Only by completely hitting the opponent's soul and making him deny himself can he get what he wants through overwhelming force!
Wulan Geli was completely defeated, not by the military, but by Xiao Letian's principles. No matter how much he loved his motherland, he had no room to refute in the face of Xiao Letian's ruthless analysis. .
"It's over...it's over..." Wulan Geli looked up to the sky and sighed, his eyes were red. He held back his tears for a long time before he regained his composure!
"Head of the State... tell me your final conditions! Please give me a little sincerity so that I can go to Moscow for business!"
Xiao Letian lit a cigarette for himself and pondered for a long time, "Actually, I don't need to raise the price now. It will be more beneficial for us to wait until next spring if we have another victory in the Ili Valley and negotiate again!"
"But...but in war, people will die after all, and I don't want those veterans of the Hunan Army to end up dead!"
"Well... you guys in the Far East must admit it. The United States and Germany have already admitted it, and the United Kingdom is about to do it. If you don't admit it, there's nothing you can do about it!"
"The northern border should be the Waixing'an Mountains, which will restore the border to the early years of Shunzhi and Kangxi. We Chinese still recognize this!"
"Lake Baikal, you must give us a part. We don't want all of it. Just the southern quarter of the water and the connecting land will be enough!"
"These two areas are useless to you Tsarist Russia! As I just said, you can't digest it even if you eat it! No one in the world can develop that land except us Chinese!"
"You also have to withdraw from the Ili River Valley. The Ili River Basin is our inherent territory as Chinese people. We use Lake Balkhash as the boundary lake. You can occupy the west and south as much as you want!"
"But the Ili River Basin, including Almaty, Bishkek... is our territory!"
"You can't bargain on these three points..."
"Then there's the compensation... I, the Chinese, are also short of money..."
"The head of state..." Ulan Geli wailed, "Are you really going to force us to death? I know that the Chinese people urgently need time for peaceful development!"
"If you force Tsarist Russia like this, you will have to fight to the end! Even if we have no possibility of victory, we can still use war to consume your precious time for peaceful development!"
"The worst case scenario is that both sides will suffer losses!"
Xiao Letian didn't expect that Wulan Geli would jump out to resist and immediately smiled, "Oh... don't be impatient! Sir Minister, I can't be too stingy!"
"You came all the way to see me in Naha. You are my guest after all, so you can't be without some consideration!"
"I will be a dictator on this matter! Even if the Great Council and others object again and they try to get me scolded a few times, I will make the decision!"
Xiao Letian pretended to be reluctant to give up and crushed his cigar. "We can give up the war reparations, but we cannot give up an inch of the land!"
"This is the bottom line... If you don't agree, then there's no need to talk anymore!"
Wulan Geli still wanted to beg, but Xiao Letian reached out decisively to stop him, "Stop talking, this is the final clause!"
"Ulan Geli... we are old acquaintances. We have not known each other for so many years, so I will tell you the truth!"
"Actually, it is beneficial for you to agree to our conditions! First of all, I understand your current strategy. After you lose Vladivostok, the Pacific Ocean outlet, where is your only hope? That is the Indian Ocean!"
"The Gwadar region of Balochistan, right? Look... I still know a lot about your country!"
"Isn't the purpose of your insistence on grabbing the Ili Valley a base for advancement? But can you put yourself in another position and think about it, whether you are good at things like construction or are we Chinese good at it?"
"You can definitely branch off from the Trans-Siberian Railway and lead directly to the Ili area and do business with us!"
"The Western Region Development Bank will eventually build railways, build factories, and invest in large-scale production bases in the Western Regions! And in the not-too-distant future, there will be railways leading from the Western Regions to the prosperous Central Plains region!"
"Once logistics is started, whatever supplies you are short of can be obtained through peaceful trade!"
"If you think this is not good and it is too expensive to buy it, I can even promise to allow your Tsarist Russian capital to build a wholly-owned factory in the Western Region!"
"How about you produce your own supplies and then sell them to yourself? Wouldn't you get benefits this way and not have to fight? You don't want our sovereignty anyway. This is the bottom line that cannot be shaken!"
"Manage it well. When our bilateral trade starts, you will actually make much more money than you can by grabbing it yourself!"
"Because war will only accumulate hatred and cut off cooperation between us. Or do we expect you to develop the economy without the help of Chinese people who are good at construction? It is really difficult..."
"Only peace, and only peace, can the Ili Valley and the Western Regions become a material supply base that you can rely on, so that you can have something to go south to compete with the British..."
"And the Siberian Railway, don't stop, continue to build it towards Vladivostok... We will also start building it at the opposite end, and eventually we will meet together at the border area!"
"Only when there is peace can we trade well! There is no shame in exporting resources. Tsarist Russia has plenty of wood, coal, animal skins, and mineral deposits... These are what we Chinese need, and our high-quality and low-price goods are also what you need. of!"
"Take it one step at a time! Our generation may not be able to solve the hardships you have encountered when operating in the cold zone, but don't be anxious. Believe in time and the ingenuity of future generations!"
"We have to use the model in front of us to support ourselves first, and then spend time bit by bit... to explore better solutions and more advanced economic models!"
"Okay... I have spoken out everything that is in my heart. I believe you can feel my sincerity. Stop fantasizing about bargaining with me!"
"Please tell Moscow all this! I believe the Tsar will make the right choice..."
