Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

There was a reason why the Russians sent a special envoy. They were rejected by Li Shaoyi last time. According to the arrogance shown by the Russians in the newspapers, they should not continue to send special envoys for negotiations. However, according to what Prince Kangying said, the existing military force is no match for Li Shaoyi, so they can only send special envoys to delay time so that the troops in their rear can catch up quickly.

The Xiongnu grasslands were simply too vast, and there were no modern tools like railways, so the soldiers had to travel by public transportation. At this time, most of the Rakshasa armies had to rely on livestock to advance, and ordinary soldiers had to walk, which was not fast.

"It's almost time, and we're almost done here. You can't keep them waiting, right?"

After Vice Minister Wu had his fill of food and drink, he looked at his watch. Nearly two hours had passed. After all, he was a special envoy of a country.

"There's nothing to talk to these people about. They're just stalling for time. Lei Zi, you go and talk to them. Tell them that if they can bring livestock worth three million dollars, or something of equal value, before nightfall tomorrow, I'll agree to a ceasefire and start negotiations with them. I might even ask them to return to our country. If not, then please send them back."

Deputy Minister Wu originally wanted to persuade Li Shaoyi to go over and talk to him so as not to neglect him.

Who knew that Li Shaoyi ordered one of his burly guards to go over and ask, "Are you negotiating? You're just extorting money."

"Wouldn't this be disgraceful to the nation? And if they really gave you the money, would you really return it to your country?"

Deputy Minister Wu's facial features were almost squeezed together. When Li Shaoyi worked with him in the past, he was too civilized. Now that Li Shaoyi's true colors were revealed, Deputy Minister Wu felt like he didn't know him.

As for Fan Xiliang next to him, he was petrified at the moment. Was he doing business with the Rakshasa people?

And he asked for three million right away. Is it really so easy to make money from the powerful countries? Then why were we always blackmailed in the past?

"What are you thinking, old man? I came here with such fanfare and just occupied a royal palace. How can you expect me to go back? Look at the fertile grasslands around here. They produce hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep every year. How could I bear to leave this place?"

Li Shaoyi's words made the two men even more nervous. This meant they were taking the money but not delivering the goods. Have you ever considered what the end result would be if you toyed with these powerful nations? This wasn't just dancing on the edge of a knife; it was clearly a rhythm of being torn into pieces.

"That won't do. It's too dangerous. I know you've been very powerful recently, but the Rakshasas and the Japanese could unite at any time. If that happens, you won't be able to hold your own in the north."

Deputy Minister Wu didn't drink much to begin with, but now all the alcohol came out after being frightened by Li Shaoyi, and he was sweating all over. Fan Xiliang also woke up and was really impressed by Li Shaoyi's behavior.

"When we dealt with the foreign devils before, didn't they also cheat us like this? They said that everything would be fine if we paid money, but in fact they made us pay more and more step by step. Now I just got the script into my own hands and used their methods to cheat them. What's more, I have done a lot of similar things to the Japanese. Don't worry, these people will pay to achieve their goals."

Li Shaoyi patted Deputy Minister Wu on the shoulder and said that he was familiar with this kind of business.

Just as a few people were chatting, Ma Leizi came back. It seemed that the conversation went well, and the guy was about to go back to report.

"Stop him and lend him our communication equipment. This trip back and forth will take several days. I don't have the time to wait for him. We'll do it tomorrow afternoon before sunset."

Hearing Li Shaoyi say this, Fan Xiliang gave him a thumbs up. He really had calculated everything. It would be very difficult for the Russians to take advantage of Li Shaoyi.

Deputy Minister Wu also shook his head with a wry smile. Since Li Shaoyi had his own plans and this was not his territory, he might as well just watch the show.

The Rakshasa envoy kept asking to go back, and Ma Leizi's words were very tough. Either you use our equipment to contact us and walk out of this gate, or we will take back our previous conditions. There is no intention of ceasefire, and we will just continue fighting.

While the Russian envoy was hesitating, a dozen transport planes came from Peiping, and a group of officers from the Second Brigade arrived ahead of schedule.

This guy had no idea what was going on. He only knew that the 72nd Division was sending a large number of reinforcements, so the only way to communicate was to send telegrams.

It was also specifically noted that the 72nd Division was already using aircraft to transport troops. Just a moment ago, there were fifteen planes circling in the sky.

Using transport planes to transport troops is an extremely luxurious thing for the armies of all countries in the world. He believed that after this report was submitted, the higher-ups should have a new understanding of Li Shaoyi's 72nd Division.

"Where the hell do you get all this gasoline from? With planes flying around all the time, it must be a lot of money."

Deputy Minister Wu drank too much and came out to get some fresh air, and he also saw the transport plane landing in the sky.

At least in China at present, except Li Shaoyi, no one has used transport planes to transport grassroots officers.

"I just extorted three million dollars from the Russians. That's enough to buy a lot of gasoline. If I were to spend it myself, I'd be so anxious to just push the plane and run. But since the foreigners are paying for me, I have no reason to worry."

Deputy Minister Wu really likes Li Shaoyi's rogue spirit. If we have a bunch of people like Li Shaoyi in our country, do we still have to worry about being bullied by foreigners?

After a lot of wrangling, Li Shaoyi fell asleep that night, and Luosha also gave a reply. They would pay about three million taels of cattle and sheep before sunset the next day as Li Shaoyi requested, in exchange for formal negotiations between the two sides.

In fact, no one thought about formal negotiations. This was just a strategy of the Russian side. They used cattle and sheep worth three million oceans in exchange for Li Shaoyi's paralysis. By the time Li Shaoyi was really ready to negotiate, the Russian army was already ready to strike.

Of course, what they didn't know was that Li Shaoyi was not prepared to negotiate. Li Shaoyi was only prepared to take your cattle and sheep worth three million oceans.

The next morning, upon learning the outcome of the negotiations, Vice Minister Wu gave Li Shaoyi a thumbs-up. "Dealing with the foreigners, you've really gotten pretty good at it. If they want to take advantage of you, you really need to go back and rebuild for another three hundred years..."
