Not only did the senior officials of the Military and Political Department think that Li Shaoyi was making trouble, but people from other government offices in Jinling also thought that this man was crazy.

If there is no evidence that Russia and Japan are on the same side, then it is understandable that you want to use your prestige on the battlefield to control Russia, but if the two sides have already united, it would be pure stupidity for you to do so.

In just half a day, Li Shaoyi was scolded badly in Jinling. If it were someone else, he would probably be panicked. But at this moment, Li Shaoyi was in the office of the 72nd Division. He was not panicked at all. Instead, he was enjoying the cooking of the Sichuan chef very comfortably.

"After all, it's Wangshulou's chef who makes more authentic food than the Sichuan chefs in the north."

Li Shaoyi said while picking his teeth that originally all the famous chefs in the country were in Peking, but after Nanjing was established as the capital, these people all came here. If you want to taste some authentic cooking, you have to come to Nanjing.

Li Sibei knew that Li Shaoyi loved to eat, so she would always invite different chefs from Jinling. But this time, Li Sibei was sitting next to him and couldn't eat a single bite. It was obvious that Jinling's various discussions had also affected this girl.

"Aren't you worried at all? Both of these countries are stronger than us. Although we've defeated them both, it's only a temporary war. If they get serious, do we have the ability to defend ourselves? Do we have the ability to win two wars at once?"

Li Shaoyi was eating happily just now, and he also made three rules for Li Sibei: don't talk while eating. Now you have started to wipe your mouth, it is normal for me to give some suggestions!

"What's there to be anxious about? If an enemy comes, we must stop him with our generals; if a flood comes, we must block it with earth. Isn't that what the military manual says? We've always done this throughout the dynasties. What can they do if they unite? I'm well aware of the strength of the Far Eastern Military Region and the Kwantung Army. Even if they all come at me, do you think I can lose?"

After seeing our combat capability at the front line this time, Li Shaoyi's confidence began to rise. Just as he said, even if these two waves of people came, at most they would just make us flustered, and we would never lose this war.

"Even if what you said is true, there's no need to offend the Rakshasa people. Otherwise, why bother starting this negotiation?"

Li Sibei said with some confusion that they had come all the way from the north and their office had been busy with the negotiations for a whole week, but Li Shaoyi ruined it in just fifteen minutes.

"My original thought was that during the truce, we could gain something that we couldn't get on the battlefield, even if it was just a tiny bit. But things changed after we arrived in Nanjing. I don't think we can take any benefits from the Luosha people anymore. The Western countries have already brought us the fat meat, and compared to this fat meat, the Luosha people can give us too little."

After hearing what Li Shaoyi said, Li Sibei became even more confused. What kind of fat did the Western countries give you? Just the military expenses they gave her that month?

"But we've already reached the limit of our offensive. If we don't have a certain amount of time to rest and recuperate, our frontline troops won't be able to resupply at all. Even if we use airplanes to resupply us further, it will be difficult for us to advance."

Li Sibei thought of another thing, and her mind was in a mess.

"But the Russians can't possibly launch an attack. Our staff have calculated that it would take at least three months for them to mobilize troops from the main locations in the Far East Military Region. Do you think our transportation conditions won't improve during that time?"

Li Shaoyi picked up the Longjing tea on the table. After all, he was an upper-class man. The tea he drank was completely different from the tea foam that cost thirty yuan per pound that he drank in the 21st century.

"Let's assume this is approved. What about the Westerners? What do you mean by 'fat meat'? Will they give us more support after the negotiations break down?"

Li Sibei didn't think that those Westerners would do that. If they were in the process of negotiation, they would find ways to sabotage the negotiation and then tempt Li Shaoyi. Now that they knew the result, why would they still spend money indiscriminately?

"This requires your efforts. Now you can make our enemies, or those who dislike us, happy for a while. Tell them that because the negotiations broke down, we are likely to lose the defense line of the Outer Xiongnu. I am already considering withdrawing the Outer Xiongnu army."

When Li Shaoyi finished speaking, Li Sibei had a general picture in her mind. Compared with Li Shaoyi, her brain was like the difference between an elementary school student and a college student. When he did everything, he could see more than ten steps into the future.

The reason for breaking up the negotiations with Luosha is because we know that it is not easy to gain any benefits from them. Moreover, for Luosha, this is not a major blow, and they will never give you much benefits.

Even when the Russo-Japanese War was so badly lost, the Tsar didn't pay a penny and just managed to get through it. Compared to that time, the current situation is not that bad.

At the beginning of the negotiations, Li Shaoyi realized this, so he wrote, directed and acted out this play to make the Westerners happy first, and then asked Li Sibei to release the news that we could not hold on any longer and had to retreat.

Li Shaoyi could feel the hatred between Westerners and Luosha with his toes. These guys didn't dare to confront them head-on, but they liked to be paid to fight. Li Shaoyi was the most powerful person who had a quarrel with Luosha in recent years. If he lost this front-line thug, it would take many years for another one to appear in the future.

Therefore, when this news is released, the consuls of various countries will probably be unable to sit still. By then, both economic and military resources will definitely be much more than they are now. In addition, these people should solve the approval documents that are stuck in the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs for themselves.

"Then you haven't considered that if something goes wrong, it could affect the lives of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people."

Li Sibei couldn't help but say that she always felt that Li Shaoyi was a little too frivolous.

"The same risks mean the same rewards. Go get to work, Director Li."

Li Shaoyi smiled wickedly. He couldn't say he could manipulate everyone, but guiding them down his path was no problem...
