After Li Changgeng talked with Wilson, the overall situation was decided. The French and British had nothing to talk about. It was nothing more than the Northeast Autonomous Government stopped in the current controlled area, and provided Kolchak with material support and promised preferential tariff policies. The Japanese were not so ambitious at this time, and North Sakhalin Islands and the entire Kuril Islands were satisfied. The Lushun Concession could also be returned to China, but the Chinese had to redeem 30 million taels of silver. Li Changgeng also pinched his nose and accepted it, but it would take fifteen years to pay it back.

The Japanese shortened this time to five years. Li Changgeng thought about it and agreed. At this time, the Northeast still wanted Japanese investment. In addition, after Vladivostok, Lushun's status was no longer so important. Li Changgeng originally thought that Japan would want more land in the Far East, but at this time, Japanese capital was in an upward period, and his ambition for territory was really not strong, and he didn't even want the Kamchatka Peninsula. What Japan wants most now is not land but markets, or economic colonization of China.

From World War I to the time before the Kuomintang came to power, Japan's policy towards China was dominated by economic aggression, lending a large amount of silver and dumping goods from Chinese warlords. Even after the Washington Conference, the sovereignty of Qingdao and Jiaoji Railways was returned to China. It was not until Jiang Guangtou came to power that the National Government issued fiat currency and turned to the arms of Britain and the United States, causing the silver price to plummet, which made the Japanese suffer. The silver loan to China could not even recover half of the cost, which completely ruined the Japanese. Otherwise, Jiang Guangtou would not be able to beat Japan, how could he expect British and French allies?

When talking about the Far East and Siberia, it looks quite large, but there are actually not many places suitable for people to live in. I won’t talk about agriculture. It’s good to grow cabbage, potatoes and radishes. In winter, it’s minus 40 degrees below 50 degrees Celsius, so you can also mine some ore and cut some wood. However, the population is sparse and the road is inconvenient. It looks quite a big piece of meat, but it’s actually hard to get inside.

After getting the promise that the Japanese had no ambitions for the Far East territory, the Heilongjiang Jiangdian Fleet and the Fengjun Yingkou Fleet joined together, and rented two Japanese troops and two supply ships, and brought three regiments of troops to the ground and set off. In the minds of the top leaders of the Northeast Alliance, there was no idea about such a huge territory. Even Li Changgeng himself had no real concept of land east of Central Siberia.

Unexpectedly, after seeing the news of the defeat of the White Guard, the great powers of Britain, France, the United States and Japan happily recognized the sovereignty of the Northeast Autonomous Region over Siberia and the Far East. As long as the Chinese could stand in the Soviet Red Army, which was increasingly fierce, the only objection was Kolchak's representative in France, but Britain, which had no hope for Kolchak, ignored him at all.

The Allies now have to form a coalition forces to fight the Red Army, but in order to better concentrate their strength, Britain, France and Italy sent troops in Europe, the United States, China and Japan sent troops in Asia, Japan sent troops 60,000 in two standing divisions, the United States sent more than 13,000 in two naval and land brigades, and China will send troops 20 divisions and 480,000 in 20 divisions.

The United States, China and Japan established a joint Asian command center, but without a headquarters, they simply did their own things. These territories belong to the Chinese. The United States cannot make a desperate attempt. The Japanese fight was just a matter of burning, killing, and robbing. The main idea was to take revenge. Russia did not pay Japan's reparations after the Russo-Japanese War. The Chinese were also willing to let Japan work hard to help do things that they wanted to do but were difficult to do.

At this time, I encountered something else. The Northeast Alliance Fleet, which was not even considered a navy, drove towards the Arctic Ocean in darkness without hydrological data. When it was not allowed to walk to the Kamchatka Peninsula, it was impossible to walk. The huge waves more than ten meters high scared the Northeast Fleet, the group of ducks that had not yet retreated. These halfway fleets were full of excitement without sinking the ship, and they still dared to move forward. The soldiers of the three regiments were all seasick and had 100% lost their combat effectiveness. They repaired the Lopkaden Road in the Kamchatka Peninsula for more than a month before they could recover.

Finally, under the coordination of the International Alliance Asian Command, the Northeast Fleet was escorted by the US and Japanese fleets and then transferred to the Yamal Peninsula in the Arctic Ocean through the Bering Strait. An extremely brilliant contribution became the most embarrassing thing for the Northeast Navy! The troops of the three regiments also took over some towns along the way.

Li Changgeng, who had decided on a major event, had only one thing left in France, that is, demolition of Ruhr. The French were willing to pay off their debts, not only to mention that they could pay off their debts, but also to collect a large amount of money from the Chinese, and weaken the industrial strength of the Germans. But Britain, the United States, and Japan were quit. If you make Germany weak, France will not become the overlord of the European continent, and you will definitely not do it.

The disagreement between the United States and Japan has nothing to do with politics and military affairs. The problem is that these factories in Germany are the most advanced in the world. How can they do Chinese business in the future? The Germans are even more irresponsible, and they have no political weight to speak, so they have to hold strikes one after another. Of course, these workers have long been shut down by the French, and they are not considered real strikes, and they can only be regarded as parades.

Fortunately, the French guy has a unique personality. If you say it is wrong, it must be right. So no French pays attention to it and force the Germans to dismantle the factory by themselves with machine guns and bayonets. In addition, Li Changgeng has a good reputation in France during this period, and the French people are also willing to make public.

Li Changgeng knew how to repay his kindness and immediately ordered contracts for fifty trains, two shipbuilding platforms and several marine turbines from the French government. As the French became more and more enthusiastic about doing business with Li Changgeng, the British also became more and more sensible. After the war, the weak national economy needed the most was civil manufacturing orders. This economic driving force effect was very obvious. Can the Germans make things sound like they were? Is it hard for fellow Taoists to die? If the Germans were building factories in the future, wouldn’t they have to buy equipment and loans from us British? Can they still buy them from the French?

After figuring out the situation, the British immediately changed their faces, and the government sent companies to lobby Li Changgeng to purchase. At this time, Li Changgeng was worried about the broken ships of the Northeast Fleet. The British came to him at this time. It was not wise to order warships now, but can they be rented? In the battle, Britain was idle, and it was quite expensive to keep. If it was not raised, it would have to be sealed. However, after the battle, the ship's technology has improved a lot. If it is sealed for a long time, it will be scrapped.

The Northeast Alliance Fleet's small warships with thousands of tons encountered a big wave that was more than ten meters high were indeed a bit of a scam. It was not that garrisoned in such a large territory, and those small warships were impossible. Li Changgeng revealed to British Prime Minister George that the meaning of renting warships, and the British Navy immediately sent someone to hook up with Li Changgeng.

The Northeast Navy is not only short of warships but also people. Not to mention fighting, those ducks are even tens of thousands of kilometers of coastline. It is probably difficult to get them to patrol and go around. Especially when entering the complex sea conditions of the Arctic Ocean.

At this time, Li Changgeng, who was thinking about his past, was stupid. He was too greedy. Such a large territory was not something he could afford. Northeast China now only actually controlled one Heilongjiang and half of Jilin, and the plus half was still in the hands of that seventh brother. If such a large territory as Siberia and Far East was not well controlled, it would drag down the development of the entire Northeast.
