Chapter 204 Amethyst

This time, Yang Feng posed a difficult problem for Comrade Li.∷∷,

Obviously, he could not refuse, not just the current friendly relationship between the two sides, but most importantly, it was too beneficial to him.

If Xinhua wants to achieve industrialization, it must buy a lot of things from outside. Even if it is purchased from the Soviet Union, the elder brother will not give it to you free of charge. He can see this clearly. He must pay for it, gold, US dollars, and rubles, but he does not have any of these three things. As an agricultural country that cannot even solve the problem of eating, it is so difficult to save some foreign exchange, and Yang Feng's trade can bring him a steady stream of rubles.

Of course he would not think that Yang Feng was just trying to sell a few down jackets. Once he opened the hole from him, a large number of daily necessities from Nanyang will continue to pour into the Soviet Union. He will also obtain a continuous stream of rubles, which will turn into mechanical equipment and pour into Xinhua from the Soviet Union, and then help Xinhua enter the industrial age as quickly as possible.

His efforts can almost be said to be zero, because he purchased various raw materials in China, using the RMB he printed himself. To put it bluntly, the printing press can print as much as he wants. There is no cost at all. It can be described as making money by making money in vain.

But this will leave a dark spot in Starlin's heart, even if he acquiesced to this kind of trade, and this dark spot will gradually expand as the trade volume gradually increases.

This is also inevitable.

In his heart, Xinhua will become the second Tito.

But after thinking about it, he still could not resist this temptation, and most of the Xinhua leadership tend to accept this kind of cooperation. After all, their benefits are too obvious.

However, how to test the Soviet Union's reaction requires some thought, because such things cannot be clearly explained, they can only be acquiescent to each other.

"This is not difficult. I will give you a batch of goods. You can add your trademark to it first. Try to export it to the Soviet Union in the name of your products. If it can pass through the Soviet customs, there will definitely be no problem. Beria is not a fool. This kind of thing can be hidden from him. If this batch of goods can enter the Soviet supply and marketing system and be placed in a department store in Moscow in a dignified manner, then we can let go of our hands next."

Yang Feng said to Lao Pan who was rushing to fly.

At this time, he had a direct flight to Beijing. A constellation specially traveled back and forth between the two places, but it rarely flew. When passing by the Minhua controlled area, Nanjing just pretended not to see it. The Xinhua army had already run into the Yangtze River. No one in Nanjing wanted to have an accident because of such a small matter.

Old Pan nodded immediately, which was what they had imagined.

"Where are Evelyn and the others now?"

Yang Feng asked casually.

Evelyn and a group of reporters are still interviewing in the north. With the arrangements of Xinhua, they not only interviewed many senior executives of Xinhua, including Comrade Li. They also sent many reports to the outside world through the communication equipment of the Thirteen Tombs Guards. In their writing, it was really a liberal and democratic republic that was about to emerge.

Especially after the pets of the future continue to arrive, this is even more certain. Even ordinary people in Europe know that the first real parliament of this country is about to begin operation.

"Miss Clement and her party went to Yangzhou the day before yesterday and said they were going to the front line for an interview, but you don't have to worry. We arranged a battalion to provide protection for them."

Old Pan said with a smile.

This press team helped them a lot. Because of their publicity, Xinhua's image has been greatly enhanced internationally, especially in Europe, because most of the reports have been through the Ming Empire Radio Station, and have won the favor of a large number of ordinary people.

Yang Feng nodded. At this time, Hu Hao hurried in. After looking at Lao Pan, he said to Yang Feng directly: "The Head of State, the New China Army Crossing the River Force and the British frigate, the Zishiz. It is said that the Zishiz was damaged and stranded."

"Well?"

Yang Feng was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lao Pan deeply.

"Mr. Pan, this is really not the time!"

He said lightly.

It is indeed not the time, because the British government had just agreed to the sale of the four tribal class destroyers. Now the four destroyers have entered the shipyard to demolish the turrets and carry out necessary repairs. According to the schedule provided by the British, the four destroyers can set sail from Britain in at most three months. If he suffers some twists and turns, it will be difficult for him, an intermediary, to do it.

"His Excellency, I remember that the Front Command had issued a warning to all foreign ships on the Yangtze River before today, why did the British warships still pass?"

Old Pan frowned and said.

Yang Feng shrugged and signaled to ask me this, who would I go?

"His Excellency, as far as I know, the Purple Quartz went to Nanjing to replace the former partner there to provide protection for our expatriates. I think you should know that in 27 years, it was also because of the affairs between them that a large number of Western expatriates in Nanjing were killed and women were raped. In order to avoid such a tragedy again, it is entirely necessary for us to send warships to go, and we had an agreement with the Minhua government before that we could sail freely."

Two hours later, Jansen, who was summoned by Yang Feng, said righteously with the telegram he had just received from Hong Kong.

"Mr. Jensen, the work of the 27th year was done by a few soldiers and local gangsters, and it has nothing to do with the Northern Expedition Army. Now, I can assure you and your government that our army is a disciplined army and will never harass foreign expatriates. However, the Purple Quartz broke into our combat zone despite our warnings, which was a completely provocative act."

Lao Pan said with the Beiping telegram he had just received.

"First of the People's Republic of China, this is the telegram sent by Miss Clement. She and the press team were interviewing on the spot. It was the Purple Quartz who ignored the Xinhua Army's fire warning and continued to sail towards Nanjing. When the Xinhua Army's second warning was the Purple Quartz who opened fire at the Xinhua Army's artillery position on the shore first."

And at this moment, Hu Hao also rushed to the telegram and said.

Three telegrams were placed in front of Yang Feng at the same time.

"Evelyn went to the front line? It's really a mess. What did she do when she ran there? Was she injured? Let them leave quickly. It's going to fight. What are they going to join in the fun!"

Yang Feng said with a gloomy face.

He really didn't expect such an accident to happen.

"Not good!" Jansen's face suddenly changed and said, "Mart is rushing to reinforce."

"Mr. Ambassador, no matter who is right or wrong in this matter, I formally ask you to stop fighting immediately!"

Yang Feng said bluntly.

Well, he doesn't need to warn him. After receiving a telegram from Jensen, he learned that the country's press group led by Evelyn was interviewed by the Xinhua Army on the front line, the British Far East Fleet Command immediately issued an order to the Companion, who was rushing to reinforce, prohibiting the exchange of fire with the Xinhua Army, and the cruiser London, who was rushing to reinforce, also received an order to temporarily stay in Shanghai and prohibit entering the combat area of ​​the Xinhua Army.

At the same time, the Xinhua Army crossing the front line also received the order from Peking that it would not be allowed to fire again unless the British warships provoked again.

The Purple Quartz incident, which had two artillery battles in history, came to an abrupt end. Of course, there was a long diplomatic dispute next, which had nothing to do with Yang Feng.

On that day, Evelyn and the press team boarded the Purple Quartz and reported the entire incident. According to the reports they issued, this incident can only be considered as overreacting by the crew of the Purple Quartz, because the two consecutive shellings of the New China Army were warning and the target was far ahead of the bow. The Purple Quartz did not think that the New China Army dared to shell them directly, so they opened fire to scare them.

The result was very tragic, and they really beat them up.

To put it bluntly, the British sailors' empire's old minds are caused by the sun never set.

Of course, Yang Feng doesn't need to worry about how they both have diplomatic disputes. Everyone has a theoretical basis for this matter. The British government has recognized the Republic of China so far, and the two sides also have diplomatic relations. According to their previous agreement, the British warships do have the right to sail on the Yangtze River, so the British government will not admit its mistakes for this.

Xinhua has issued an early warning, and you deserve it if you don’t listen to the criticism, so Xinhua is not wrong. After all, this is a cognitive issue, and this matter is difficult to understand in diplomacy.

The stranded Purple Quartz continued to stay there anyway. Xinhua also allowed them to buy supplies very well, and sent a team of soldiers and medical staff to help them treat the wounded. In short, this is just a small matter. Although there are some radical voices in Britain, because of the presence of reporters of their own country, most British media still think this is just a misunderstanding. Millions of troops on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are preparing to launch a final decisive battle. Aren’t you just trying to die when you run to the middle at this time?

If a pro-Prussian warship had traveled to the English Channel when Normandy landed, not to mention the death or injury of dozens of people, I would have probably been bombarded without warning, so there would be no more scum left. At least many warnings, it would be better for you to fight back. After all, it was just an accident and not worth fighting.

Of course, they also knew that the British Empire no longer had the confidence to make big moves.

The British government did not even mention refusing to sell the four destroyers, and they were reluctant to leave this good business, not to mention that even if these four destroyers appeared in the Xinhua Navy, it had nothing to do with them.

There is nothing to say about the next thing. Zhongshan was stormy and yellow. Millions of heroes crossed the river. The bald man's Yangtze River defense line was defeated like a mountain. The army of the most blessed general of the Republic of China planted the red flag into the presidential palace. The country changed hands completely.
