In Wang Yi's office, Wu Xiao, Xiang Long, Zhao Liewen, Tu Xiaohua, Zhao Ziguang were also attending Tang Shaoyi. Wang Yi gave him a choice, either joining or not, but once he comes in, he can't get out.

After careful consideration, Tang Shaoyi chose to join, and Wang Yi didn't say anything more.

Zhao Liewen picked up a document and handed it to Wang Yidao: "This is the current negotiation situation with Buce. Because the two sides cannot reach a consensus on the status of the Northeast Republic, they temporarily gave up the negotiations on this matter."

"It's good." Wang Yi thought for a while and said. "I heard that the Russians wanted to redeem more than 12,000 men and 30,000 to 40,000 women who were captured by us?"

Zhao Liewen smiled and said, "That's true!"

"What conditions were given?"

"The Russians say they are willing to pay three hundred silver dollars for each male and two hundred fifty silver dollars for women."

Tang Shaoyi smiled and said, "The Russians are so cheap."

A bunch of people laughed.

Wang Yi calculated and said, "Tell Buce that if there are prisoners of war, we can exchange it equally. If there is no... the price increases ten times, we still have to discuss it, otherwise we will wait to let these people die of old age in the Qing Dynasty."

Nowadays, some of the Russian women in the Qing Dynasty have become concubines of Dashang Insurance Team, and some have been allocated to many factories in Dashang, especially in Anton, with nearly 15,000 people engaged in textile-related industries. All women have started learning Chinese, but Wang Yi did not abuse them. All factories offer them minimum wages. Although they are not free, they can make a living and have some pocket money left every month. Speaking of which, most people live a more relaxed life than when they were in Russia. Of course, the mental pressure is probably much heavier.

Compared to them, the male prisoners in Russia were much lower in their treatment. They were either mining in the mines of Dashang, or they were helping to build roads, railways, rivers, and water conservancy facilities. Those who were more victorious would be assigned to livestock farms and farms. Although they earned as much as their Russian female compatriots, the labor intensity was often doubled. It was just that they were soldiers in the past, and they did all the work of slaughtering villages and towns. If the king saved their lives, it would be enough to do the most kindness.

"I understand, Chairman."

Wu Xiao spoke about this and said, "I don't know when the Tsarist Russia's offensive this year will come. We have sent troops to capture Nibchu and repaired the fortress there. At the same time, a new fortress was built at the southern exit of the Urekma River in the Outer Xing'an Mountains. In addition to the planned Tengda Fortress in the southern part of the Outer Xing'an Mountains, the Russians in the direction of Yakutsk, except for taking sea routes or traveling far away from Irkusko, basically all the way southwards were blocked by us. This year we built these three fortresses, and the troops have entered a large scale."

Zhao Ziguang also spoke at this time. He was the head of the Air Force for more than a year.

"Last year we added three airships, including three Vipers, and two Mammoths. The new aviation bombs carried by Vipers are still being developed. The Air Force's Weapon Research Institute is cooperating with the arsenal, but if it is really put into use, it may take another one or two years."

Although the viper was developed, Wang Yi did not put it on the battlefield. First of all, its attack weapons are too low, and it is difficult for them to pose a real threat to the enemy. Secondly, if the airship wants to remain safe, it must stay at a certain height. However, in this way, the machine cannons and small bombs that are not powerful enough cannot even guarantee the attack accuracy. According to the above two points, the current viper has no other use except for being used for reconnaissance and surveillance operations.

In Wang Yi's mind, the airship could have become a more powerful weapon. If it is used rashly, it will lose its sudden effect. In his opinion, it would be a bit unworthy of the loss. Even if it cannot become the Kirov airship in the Red Alert, it will still become the bomber in the airship.

"There is no way to do this." Wang Yi said indifferently: "Now the biggest task of your airship unit is to cultivate aviation talents. Don't have weapons but no one uses them, it will be embarrassing."

"Yes!" Zhao Ziguang stood up and saluted Wang Yi.

As the chief of staff of the army, Wu Xiao had of course seen airships, and Tu Xiaohua had also seen them. However, Zhao Liewen and Tang Shaoyi had no luck. Tang Shaoyi had heard that it was when they were studying in the United States. As a traditional talent, Zhao Liewen was curious when he heard that the Da Shang business had mysterious weapons that could lead people to fly in the sky. Later, he begged Wang Yi to let him see it. Wang Yiyi thought, then go there. Don't let him go, and he brought a group of "old comrades" including Wang Yiyun to the airship shipping station. Later, he took them around and after he came down, the excited Yu Yue, who usually didn't speak much, shouted and sang: "You can catch the moon in the sky, and you can catch turtles in the five oceans..." He was very crazy for a while...

Wang Yi thought of another thing at this time and said to Wu Xiao: "Last time you led your troops to land from Ayang and crossed the Jugjuer Mountains. Do you think there is a possibility of large-scale military use there?"

Wu Xiao shook his head and said, "It's very difficult. If the Tsarist Russians had not built the road to Ayang and various regions themselves, it would be difficult for us to carry out large-scale group operations in that primitive forest. The pure horse team would be better, but it would be difficult to move forward if we brought heavy weapons!"

"So that's similar to the terrain in the Northeast Republic?"

Wu Xiao thought about it and nodded. "Last time we attacked the Russians, if we had borrowed the traffic of the frozen rivers in winter, it would have been a delusion to attack so quickly in summer."

Wang Yi didn't say anything again.

Wu Xiao said in confusion: "Captain, don't you still want to use troops in winter? Even though we made sufficient warmth last time, nearly 20% of the team members were injured and killed due to the severe cold. The north of the Xing'an Mountains was three points colder than ours, and there was no possibility of using troops."

Wang Yi laughed at this time, then walked to the map and said, "You boy misunderstood. I didn't mean that! I thought again, since it's difficult for us to use troops here, obviously the same is true for the Russians. Then we will use the gradually stronger navy to cooperate with the army to attack cities along the Okhotsk Sea, including the cities on the east side of the Jugjur Mountains, Magadan on the northern coast of the Okhotsk Sea, and even the entire Kamchatka Peninsula! What can the Russians do?"

Wu Xiao thought for a while and said, "The captain's proposal is good. If our navy is strong enough, it should not be difficult to do it. After those areas are occupied, we can still continuously build fortresses and take advantage of our logistical distance to be enough to drag the Russians to death!"

"It won't go so smoothly. They will build railways in the future, and our advantage will not be that great." Tang Shaoyi said a rare sentence here.

Wu Xiao didn't value him so much, but at this time it was rare to add a look and said, "Shaochuan said it right, but if he wanted to extend the railway from Russia and Europe to us, if he just relied on them, it would be impossible to build it in ten years. With our interference, it would be no problem to hold it for fifteen or sixteen years. But when we really did, where can we extend to?"

"Xiang Long, this matter is left to you. You are still in charge of Vladivostok! At the same time, I asked Zhang Jingxiao to open two large shipyards on your side and let the Maritime School open branches on your side."

Among Wang Yi's group of students, Xiang Long is the most military-oriented one. A few years ago, he was a character who only knew how to lead troops. Now, after several years of hard study and command in the battle, he has already been reborn. After three years of separation, he should look at him with admiration.

"Longzi, remember! You are not only dealing with the Tsarist Russians, but also the Japanese. They occupied the Ekima (Hokkaido) for nothing. How can that be so good! You can take care of the northern sea area of ​​North Korea."

"Captain, don't worry."

Wang Yi handed over a bunch of information to Xiang Long at this time, and then everyone arranged a lot of details.

"Xiaohua, tell me the current situation in North Korea!"

Tu Xiaohua is now responsible for the underground intelligence collection of Dashang. The official name is the Northeast Intelligence Bureau, referred to as the East Intelligence Bureau. In addition to this bureau, Dashang also has an information consulting company, which mainly provides information consulting services to major merchants. At first, Wang Yi only did such a company to provide information service guidance for Tai'an grain and oil according to Zhang Quanfu's request. Later, as his reputation grew, many manufacturers came to him. Now the business is very prosperous, and he has a significant voice in the Yingkou grain futures market and the newly established textile futures market.

On the surface, there seems to be no relationship between the Eastern Intelligence Bureau and Dashang Consulting, but in private, the two sides are constantly exchanging information.

The most important task of the Eastern Intelligence Agency recently is to analyze the situation in North Korea, because Wang Yi’s tablet does not have much information about North Korea. He doesn’t remember much, and some of them are content in the TV series, so the credibility can be imagined.

What Wang Yi can recall now is that North Korea was controlled by Andong Kim before, and he had no impression of who in it. Later, some people recommended that Daewonjun's son now became the king of North Korea, and then the Queen Min group and Daewonjun group competed for power, saying that Daewonjun himself wanted to be the king... Wang Yi had no idea about the specific details inside. When he was fucked by Korean dramas, he just followed him to take a few glances when he was at home.

As for the subsequent development, it seems that there was a coup in recent years. It seemed that Li Hongzhang sent troops to help quell the rebellion. Later, Yuan Shikai was released, Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Naval Battle... There were a lot of things that were missing, and Wang Yi really had no idea.

Now North Korea's tax revenue is under the control of the big merchants. In general, because the tax revenue increases significantly, the two sides are currently getting along well. Although the Qing government has no troops stationed in North Korea, the tentacles of the big merchants have already penetrated into it, including finance, fishery, shipping, grain, etc. The Japanese compete with the big merchants, and the two sides are currently in a stalemate, which is mainly related to the Japanese government's cheating on Japanese merchants.

The Koreans close to Andong now have awe of the big merchants than they are for themselves. Speaking of which, the situation on both sides of the Yalu River is similar to that in later generations. The economy is prosperous on Andong, and the number of tall buildings is gradually increasing. On the other side of the Yalu River, the poor are a mess.

It is precisely because of this that many people in North Korea now sneaked across the Yalu River and ran to Andong to make a living. The magistrate of Andong originally wanted to stop it, but was dissuaded by the Da Shang. The Qing court originally had very strict restrictions on trade with North Korea. The newly appointed Jilin General Wu Dacheng was sent to Ming'an, but in fact he was doing this. However, the three provinces of Fengji and Hei have a special status and their economy is no longer under the control of the Qing court. Qi Ling had no choice. However, the tax revenue in Andong County did so, so he could only be happy and afraid. Seeing the Da Shang implementing his North Korean policy, he was powerless.

Tu Xiaohua said at this time: "The situation in North Korea is very unstable. This is a song that we have received widely circulated from the North Korean people."

Zhao Liewen read it and said, "The golden cup is a fine wine, the jade plate is a delicious dish, the people's tears fall when the candles fall, and the singing is high and the complaints are high."

The people present, Xiang Long, Wu Xiao, and Tu Xiaohua, were all ordinary disciples. They had always had deep disgust for the corrupt court that oppressed the people. After hearing Zhao Liewen finished reading the song, Xiang Long snorted. Although Wu Xiao did not have much expression, Wang Yi, who was familiar with him, knew that this kid also expressed his disgust.

"Is there really a rebellion possible?" Wang Yi read carefully with the information handed over by Tu Xiaohua.

"It's true!" Tu Xiaohua said: "If it continues to develop according to the current situation, in less than a year or two, North Korea will inevitably be disrupted!"

"Captain, do we need to increase our troops? Currently, only Cao Man's third infantry division is stationed in Anton. Are they a little lonely?"

Wang Yi didn't say anything.

Tu Xiaohua said at this time: "I heard that last year, the North Korean government officially selected thirty noble disciples to form the so-called 'gentle browsing group' to visit Japan. These people witnessed the new scene in Japan, which was amazing and deeply touched. They were deeply dissatisfied with the fact that they were not as good as the old and lifeless in North Korea. So after returning to China, they gradually formed the so-called 'Careful Party'."

"Caohua Party?"

Wang Yi had no impression. "Who are they?"

Tu Xiaohua continued: "The main figures of the Kaihua Party include Kim Yu-jung, Hong Ying-zhi, Park Yong-hyo, Min Yong-yi, Xu Guang-fan, Xu Zai-bi, and Yin Zhihao. The Kaihua Party is mainly composed of noble children from two famous families, such as Kim Yu-jung who came from Andong Kim; Hong-jung, the son of Hong Chun-mu, who was born in Nanyang; Hong-yeol, who was born in the Hong-san of North Korea; Park Yong-hyo, who was born in the Pam-san of North Korea; Yoon-hyo, the son of Yin Xiong-yeol, the son of Queen Min; Min Yong-yi, the son of Lee Seok-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-young-

Tu Xiaohua paused at this time, looked at everyone and said, "The policy they proposed is to build Japan outside, reform insiders, clear up the Qing Dynasty for several days, and break away from China. Declare North Korea's independence and implement constitutional monarchy!"

"So, are they the so-called pro-Japanese delegation?"
Chapter completed!
