"This is really a peaceful country." When they got off the boat, the old couple, who were already familiar with Grace, sighed.
If there was anything that surprised Grace, it was probably that the Min dynasty could be called 'peaceful'. She had to ask, "Why do you think so?"
"Did you see any warships along the way? Did you see any troops? "The old man explained.
Grace did not expect the old man to look at the problem from this angle. After a while, she realized that the old man was right. After living on Cyprus for many years, Grace was very familiar with the uniforms of the Liberation Army's army and navy. Thinking carefully, she actually did not see any Min dynasty soldiers along the way.
"Mom, it's Dad. Dad is coming to pick us up! "Grace's son shouted as he grabbed Grace's arm.
"It's Dad! Dad! "Grace's daughter went straight to her father, Wang Mingshan.
Grace looked up and saw Wang Mingshan bending down to pick up his daughter. The two had been separated for several months. Grace had thousands of words in her heart to say to the old man, but she just stood there with red eyes. The old man and the old lady just smiled and followed the crowd to the exit of Nanjing Port with their grandchildren.
The Marquess only thought of the Liberation Army's army and navy in Cyprus for a moment. As a civilian, the Marquess never appeared in the army's heart. When Wang Mingshan and the Marquess hugged on the Nanjing port, the Cyprus army was seriously doing a sand table deduction.
On August 7th, the Romanian army suddenly launched a surprise attack on Hungary. The Hungarian defense forces on the border were prepared, but they began to retreat under the joint attack of the Romanian army and the Romanians in Hungary. Romania immediately announced that they had 'liberated the Romanian compatriots who were enslaved by Hungary.'
On August 9th, the Hungarian army began to counterattack, and the Romanian army was driven out of Hungary on August 13th. In just a few days after the invasion, the Romanian army colluded with the Romanian separatists in Hungary and wantonly killed the Romanian representatives in the Hungarian local parliament and civil servants in the local government, as well as their families. The angry Hungarian Red Army crossed the border to pursue the murderer. Russia immediately asked Hungary to stop invading Romania in the early morning of the 14th day of the 8th month, and asked Hungary to cede the eastern 'land belonging to Romania'.
A hundred thousand Russian troops were stationed at the Hungarian border of Russia. The Russian government was clamoring for war, but Austria did not seem to hear it, and Germany was silent. The other European countries stood by and watched. The Osman Empire privately told Cyprus that it would provide a channel of assistance to the Liberation Army after the outbreak of war. For a moment, Hungary was facing Russia and Romania alone.
Green tea, black tea, fruit tea, scented tea. Each person's preference was in the teacups.
"It's impossible for a hundred thousand Russian soldiers to start a war. An army of this size can't unleash the advantage of a few million Russian soldiers."
"Why did Russia send millions of troops to Hungary? Was it to give Austria and Germany a chance to cut off their retreat?"
"Russia thinks that its army is strong enough to defeat the Hungarian Red Army on Hungarian soil?"
"The core issue this time is how to deal with the relationship with Romania after the war."
"If Hungary wants to deal with Romania, it must first deal with Russia. Can it do that? "
"Why can't Hungary deal with Russia with its own strength?"
After a limited debate, the chief of staff asked, "Why did Russia take the initiative to attack Hungary?"
This sentence made everyone quiet down. Now the Slovak People's Republic of Hungary occupied the middle Danube Plain, and Romania occupied the lower Danube Plain. Hungary relied on the Eastern Carpathian Mountains and the Northern Carpathian Mountains to defend against Russia. What kind of reason could make Russia make such a stupid decision to cross the mountains and attack Hungary?
"Report!" The messenger shouted at the door. After receiving the order to report, the messenger quickly walked to the meeting members and said, "The latest news, Russia announced that it will attack the evil Soviet Union and the enemy of the Slavic nation, Hungary. It has officially launched an attack on Hungary. "
"What?" The people in the meeting asked in unison. Everyone wondered if they had heard it wrong. No matter how stupid Russia was, it would not make such a stupid decision.
In Dongyuan City, a port city on the west coast of the Atlantic Ocean, Vézé was leisurely drinking tea in his seaside villa. Sitting next to his father, Qi Rui, the political commissar of the North American Theater of Operations, asked in confusion, "Father, did the upper class of Russia take the wrong medicine? They lost soldiers in Hungary a few years ago. Have they forgotten all about it? "
Seeing that his son, who was in the prime of his life, was so energetic, Wei Ze replied slowly, "Qi Rui, if you don't investigate, you don't have the right to speak. I don't agree with your criticism of the Russian upper class."
Qi Rui was stunned, and his face was a little red. But it was only a matter of a moment. Qi Rui quickly regained his composure and asked his father, "Father, I did think one-sidedly. It's just that Hungary has been doing well in recent years, and Hungary is defending the Carpathian Mountains. I don't think Russia has a chance to win at all. "
"You … are really a qualified political commissar of the Liberation Army. When considering problems, you instinctively stand on the model of our party, our army, and our country. Russia is not a country like our Min dynasty. " When evaluating his son, Vézé did not know whether he should be happy or feel that it was not enough, and he could not help but think of the staff who thought that Russia and the Min dynasty were in the same category.
Qi Rui could not understand his father's evaluation. He could not help but ask, "Father, you don't want me to look down on the upper class of Russia, but from the perspective of the Min dynasty, Russia's approach is too stupid …"
"The Ji family will attack Zhuan Yu!" Vézé interrupted Qi Rui's words.
Qi Rui was stunned. He seemed to have some impression of this passage. He should have learned it in school. There seemed to be a person named 'Qiu' in it. Making a group of high school students read 'Ball' loudly in a serious tone was a popular entertainment.
"These two are not the same thing, and you don't have to compare the specious things in the middle. That conclusion is very interesting, and I think it can be used to expand our thinking. "Vézé faintly expressed his opinion.
"I will go and have a look," Qi Rui replied quickly. He vaguely remembered that this passage was the source of several idioms, one of which was called "Calamity rises from the wall".
While Vézé was overlooking the Atlantic Ocean from his seaside villa on the west coast of the Atlantic Ocean, in Budapest, the capital of Hungary, far to the east of the Atlantic Ocean, the people of Hungary were asking the ruling Hungarian Parliament how to solve the problem of Russia.
"Both sides should act together. Prepare for war at home. I believe the people will defend the fruits of the victory of the revolution and will defend the country. " The Hungarian president answered calmly, but after that, he could not help but look at Zhou Shuren, a member of the Central Committee of the Hungarian Parliament. Hungary accepted the Min dynasty as a consultant. If the consultant joined the Hungarian Parliament, he could become a member of the Central Committee. At least at this stage, the Hungarian people were not dissatisfied with this. Not long ago, a large number of Austrians held high positions in Hungary.
The slogan of protecting the fruits of victory and protecting the country refreshed the spirits of the deputies. Now, most of the deputies were ordinary farmers and workers. The core of the first five-year plan, which began in 1901, was to complete the land reform and build the preliminary socialist industrial foundation. Whether it was farmers or workers, ordinary laborers benefited a lot from it. Hungarians hated Russia's bloody suppression of the Hungarian Revolution in 1849, not to mention that if Russia succeeded this time, the farmers and workers would lose everything they had now.
"Of course, we will not oppose a peaceful solution. On the basis of safeguarding Hungary's national sovereignty and interests, we are willing to negotiate with Russia peacefully. "The president of the Hungarian Parliament and the president explained the response.
At this time, the Prime Minister of Russia, Stolypin, was watching the musical "Banquet at Hongmen" at the China Embassy on the outskirts of St. Petersburg. The background of the famous European opera "Turandot" was the story of China during the Mongolian Empire era. The time and space setting of the Banquet at Hongmen itself was not a problem for the European upper class. The Banquet at Hongmen was a scene of a civil and military battle at a banquet full of court atmosphere. It was written by a first-class opera scriptwriter and was already a famous new play in Europe. "No one will retreat today" and "Song of Drawing Sword" had become famous. The humorous song "Going to the Toilet" had a good reputation among the people.
Stolypin himself had very limited interest in this kind of literature and art. He was interested in the Min dynasty Embassy, which had an area of two square kilometers and several huge vegetable gardens. The fresh vegetables produced here were delicious for the upper class of Russia. Stolypin himself did not have a strong appetite, but he hoped that Russian farmers would have the opportunity to master China's vegetable planting technology.
While watching the opera absent-mindedly, the secretary of the Min dynasty Ambassador asked Stolypin to meet outside. The Prime Minister of Russia left the small opera house and followed the secretary to the garden greenhouse. This was a greenhouse made of double glass. The upper half was transparent glass, and the lower half was frosted glass. Some artistic treatment was adopted when they were pieced together. Many people of the upper class of Russia appreciated this novel building very much.
As soon as he entered the greenhouse, the Prime Minister of Russia, Stolypin saw not only the Ambassador of the Min dynasty inside, but also a person who seemed to have seen him before but couldn't remember clearly. "This is the Ambassador of Hungary," the Ambassador of the Min dynasty calmly introduced.
Stolypin frowned and said with some displeasure, "Your Excellency, if you hope that I can end the war, I'm afraid you've found the wrong person."
The Ambassador of China calmly walked to the Prime Minister of Russia, Stolypin. As he walked, he said slowly, "Your Excellency, the Banquet at Hongmen you just watched has derived a proverb from our China. Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is intended to be used by the Duke. If you think that the purpose of this war is for Hungary or Romania, I think this is all wrong. If you think that this war is actually against you, I don't think it's completely the case. In my opinion, the real purpose of this war is to abolish your reform plan. "
When Stolypin heard the first few words, he only showed a sarcastic smile. But when he heard the last sentence, Stolypin could no longer maintain his composure. He stared at the Ambassador of China who stopped in front of him and asked fiercely, "What do you mean?"
