"It's Frunze." Pocheyev said with his head down.

Chapter 842 The Emperor's Request

Hearing Fu Longzhi's name, Zhao Shouhong gasped, he was too familiar with this person.Frunze's full name is Mikhail Vasilyevich Frunze, and he was a very famous military strategist in the early days of the founding of the Red Raksha State.After the International Intervention Army invaded the Red Rakshasa, he was appointed as the military commissar of the Yaroslav Military District.

At that time, when Admiral Kolchak was attacking Moscow with an army of 20, Frunze, who was in danger, led more than 4 poorly equipped Red Roman troops, and cut off the opponent's supply line in one fell swoop, forcing Kolchak to panic. Withdrawing, a large number of personnel and supplies were lost in vain.

This victory over Kolchak was already the second time Frunze had met this opponent.Unexpectedly, Admiral Kolchak, who was invincible in sea battles but messed up in land battles, failed to escape again, and his own death caused heavy losses to the Rakshasa Army.

It can be said that in today's Luocha army, there are very few people who can fight against Fu Longzhi.Zhao Shouhong hurriedly asked: "How many soldiers are there in the Rakshasa army?"

Pocheyev obviously came prepared, and he quickly said: "Now there are 15 troops on the Kuibyshev front line, and [-] troops in the rear. In addition, General Denikin in the Caucasus has [-] troops. .”

"How many people does Fu Longzhi have?" Zhao Shouhong asked calmly.

"According to reconnaissance, it is about 7 people." Pocheyev replied honestly.

"7 people beat you into such a mess? Wouldn't you let Denikin attack north and cut off Frunze's retreat?" Zhao Shouhong felt that these Rakshasa people were simply idiots.

Pocheyev shook his head and said, "Impossible. There is Budyonny's First Red Cavalry Army in the direction of the Caucasus. General Denikin can't move an inch."

Hearing the other party's answer, Zhao Shouhong couldn't help lamenting the powerful restoration of history, and the war situation in the north has returned to history.If he can't take effective measures, I'm afraid the Red Rakshasa will quickly defeat the Rakshasa Empire, and soon become a serious problem that the Western Special Administrative Region cannot ignore.

"It's such a headache." Zhao Shouhong beat his head and paced back and forth in the room.

"By the way, there is someone who can deal with Frunze." Zhao Shouhong suddenly raised his head and said, "Where is Brusilov?"

"Brusilov? Because of his bad record of surrendering to the provisional government, he is now assigned to the logistics department." Pocheyev said.

Naturally, Zhao Shouhong would never forget this iron-blooded soldier who once knocked out the Red Luo negotiator at the negotiating table.When he joined the provisional government, he made great efforts in suppressing the Hongluo government.It is precisely because of this record that he was brutally persecuted after the Hongluo government wiped out the interim government and regained power.He was forced to leave St. Petersburg, and came to the new capital of the Rakshasa Empire in Ufa in disguise, joining the ranks of the empire.

In history, it was his victory in 1 that made everyone remember him and label him as the No. 1916 Rakshasa general in World War I.That battle was the only big victory of the Rakshasa Kingdom on the Eastern Front. It once nearly destroyed the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Because he was the commander-in-chief of this battle, this victory was also called Brusilov's breakthrough.

Such a cavalry general who is good at attacking is a good opponent for Fu Longzhi. Now Zhao Shouhong no longer expects the Rakshasa Empire to win the final victory.As long as it can deal a heavier blow to the Red Rakshasa, the Western Special Zone will have more time to develop.

Just when Zhao Shouhong was thinking about how to help Brusilov and teach Frunze a solid lesson, Pocheyev said in a low voice: "I have a request from His Majesty, and I need to tell you personally, can you Shall I meet with you alone?"

Looking at Duke Olga who was still crying in Sun Yuting's arms, Zhao Shouhong nodded and said, "Come with me."

Under the arrangement of Yang Xizi, Zhao Shouhong and Pocheyev came to a small private meeting room and sat down. Zhao Shouhong asked, "Tell me, what's the matter with His Majesty Nicholas?"

Pocheyev blushed a little, as if it was because the matter was so difficult to talk about that a seasoned diplomat could not speak. Obviously, this matter was extraordinary.In the end, the responsibility to the country overcame his inner pride, and Pocheyev said: "The Rakshasa army is fighting very hard now, ammunition and artillery are very scarce, I hope the special zone can give us strong support, and if possible, I hope General Song Zheyuan can send troops to assist. "

"It is impossible to send troops to assist. This is a civil war in the Raksha Kingdom, and it is inconvenient for the SAR to intervene." Zhao Shouhong immediately sternly refused.He needs a peaceful space for development, and must not be thrown into a protracted war, especially for that hard-to-beat red demon.

Seeing Pocheyev's face turned gloomy, Zhao Shouhong thought of the key.For the proud Raksha people, asking for reinforcements in such a low voice is like slapping themselves in the face.If he hadn't come to a desperate situation, I believe he would not have opened his mouth.As for the lack of ammunition and cannons, it is estimated that many materials were seized by the other party.

Pocheyev seemed to have made a lot of determination and said: "Your Majesty instructed me to inform the Lord General that Your Majesty and the Queen are willing to marry the Grand Duchess Olga and the Grand Duchess Tatyana to the Lord. In addition, the Grand Duchess Maria and General Song Zheyuan has deep feelings, and I hope that the general will grant permission for the marriage."

"What?" Zhao Shouhong cried out in surprise. He did not expect that Nicholas II would spend such a large sum of money and send all three daughters out in exchange for support from the Western Special Zone.But Zhao Shouhong was relieved when he thought about it again. Although Nicholas II wanted to use his daughter in exchange for aid and support, it was only secondary.The main reason is that Nicholas II felt that he had no hope of victory and hoped to send his daughters to a safe place. Even if he lost the glory and wealth of the nobility, he could at least keep them safe for life.From this point of view, Nicholas II can be described as well-intentioned.

"Mr. Pocheyev should be very clear that there is a marriage law in the Western Special Zone. According to the law, foreign women are prohibited from becoming legal wives. If your government joins the Western Special Zone, they can be used as concubines. Besides, Song Zheyuan and I both have wives. The marriage of several female archduchesses may not be consistent with the teachings of the Orthodox Church." Zhao Shouhong kept looking into Pocheyev's eyes when he was speaking, and saw his eyes darken, and then became extremely firm, obviously he was mentally prepared in advance.

"According to His Majesty's request, the three grand duchesses have withdrawn from the Orthodox Church, and His Majesty believes that the status of a concubine in the Eastern Continent is not a big deal for the Rakshasa Empire," Pocheyev said.

Chapter 843 Helpless Aubrey

"But Prince Alexei just passed away. Even with the rules of the Western Continent, it shouldn't be a wedding right away." Zhao Shouhong asked.

Pocheyev nodded: "Your Majesty has also considered this point. The three grand duchesses can get engaged first, and then live with the Chief Consul and General Song. According to the rules of the Eastern Continent, they can wait until they get married after three years." Zhao Shouhong He couldn't help but smile, this Nicholas II was really determined to find a way for his daughter, and he could think of such a way.

Since everyone took the initiative, Zhao Shouhong naturally couldn't be so hypocritical, so he nodded in agreement. "As long as the Raksha Kingdom allows General Brusilov to replace General Kolchak to lead the army, we will definitely support it." He stood up while speaking, and looked at the exquisitely decorated world map on the wall of the conference room : "It is impossible for my investment to fill the bottomless pit and let the red Rakshasa get benefits, so the Rakshasa Empire must put the most capable generals in the position to ensure success. The future outcome of the emperor."

Pocheyev left with Zhao Shouhong's promise, but he seemed to have deliberately forgotten Grand Duchess Olga in Arabia Province.Zhao Shouhong could only sigh at the behavior of the Raksha people. For the future and destiny of the country, he sold his daughter's lifelong happiness directly, without even adding a small fig leaf.

Zhao Shouhong felt that the hearts of these high-ranking people were too dirty, and they were obviously not as open and aboveboard as Shengdou Xiaomin.For Olga who was depressed because of the death of his younger brother, Zhao Shouhong had no choice but to ask Sun Yuting to comfort him, because he had to rush to meet a mysterious guest.

The person who was brought into the office by Yang Xizi himself was a middle-aged man with a melancholy complexion, who was completely unkempt.His suit was quite messy, the cuffs were rubbed shiny, and the collar of his shirt was pitch black, as if he hadn't changed his clothes for a long time.The visitor's eyes were dull and his face was pale, which was caused by long-term lack of sleep. Even the mustache was not taken care of, and it looked greasy.

Zhao Shouhong subconsciously felt that he was an entrepreneur, but this one seemed to have suffered a heavy blow, not as energetic as many Teutonic entrepreneurs at the ball last night.Only after Yang Xizi's introduction did Zhao Shouhong know that this unattractive middle-aged man was Ludger Aubrey, the president of the Whitehead Torpedo Company of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Speaking of the Whitehead Torpedo Company, it is recognized as the largest torpedo company in the world. Saar engineer Robert Whitehead and the Austro-Hungarian engineer Rubius jointly developed the world's first torpedo in [-]. This is the Whitehead Torpedo. the beginning.

After successfully developing the torpedo, the two established their own factory in Kaden, a small town in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, specializing in the manufacture of white-headed torpedoes.Because of the excellent performance of the Whitehead Torpedo in previous naval battles, the Whitehead Torpedo Company has also become famous, and this place has become a world-recognized birthplace of torpedoes.

All countries in the world today admit that the torpedoes of the Whitehead Torpedo Company are the most advanced.The so-called people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. It is precisely because of this reason that the company has suffered huge losses.After the war, the government of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which had been eyeing it for a long time, took control of the company without hesitation and appointed Ludger Aubrey as the new president.

Ludger Aubrey was originally just a draftsman in the Navy, but he has a deep research on torpedoes. Fifteen years before the war, he tried to install gyroscopes on torpedoes, and the result was a great success.The torpedo, which always arced due to the direction of the water flow, finally moved straight forward after installing the gyroscope.It was precisely because of this great attempt that the Whitehead Torpedo Company took a fancy to him and quickly recruited him. After the death of the two torpedo pioneers, he was even promoted to the manager of the technical department.

After the Austro-Hungarian Empire took control of the company, the government selected Ludger Aubrey, a middle-aged man with military experience, as the full-fledged president in order not to cause too much resistance among the employees.The 40-year-old Ludger Aubrey was originally just a technician, not good at business.During the war, there was a steady stream of orders from the military, and the company was running without problems. However, because he knew nothing about business, he spent a lot of money on research and development of new products, resulting in insufficient funds for the company.

Originally, the lack of funds was not a major issue, because there was a steady stream of orders from the military, and their working capital could still support the operation of the company.But the war will not last forever. When the Austro-Hungarian Empire was completely defeated and the country was about to be dismembered, the only thing Ludger Aubrey could do was to dismantle all the machinery and load it on a truck, take most of the company with him, and follow Hua Lan skilled workers withdrew into the territory of the Western Special Zone.

Other entrepreneurs have their backs, and they can resume production as soon as possible after arriving in the Western Special Zone and build new factories.Ludger Aubrey was unable to keep the company running even though all the personnel and equipment had been evacuated to the Arabian Province because the company was in a huge deficit.

After seeing Zhao Shouhong, Ludger Aubrey bowed deeply first and said, "Dear Lord Chief, I have been famous for you for a long time, especially my friend Eldridge often praises you in letters."

"Oh? Are you and Ai Triqi good friends? He is now the leader of the aero-engine design bureau, with great power." Zhao Shouhong said with a smile.

"I heard that Erich has decided to become a Hualan nationality and become a member of the Hualan nation?" Ludger Aubrey continued to ask.

Zhao Shouhong nodded: "That's right, this happened a month ago. The policy of our Western Special Zone is that all nations, groups and individuals who are willing to join the Hualan Kingdom and make progress together with us are our university's representative." A member of the Hualan nation. We will treat these people equally without any prejudice, and this is written into the laws of the SAR.”

"I really want to know how long such a law can exist, and whether it will exist in your lifetime." Luther Aubrey stared at Zhao Shouhong, waiting for his answer.

"No, not only in my lifetime, it will become an article of the constitution and will exist in Hualan Kingdom forever. What I mean is that in the near future, it will no longer be a law that only restricts the Western Special Zone, but will be oriented toward The entire Hualan country." Zhao Shouhong's words are tantamount to admitting that he has the idea of ​​aspiring to become the world's champion, and that he is sure of it.

For a long time, Zhao Shouhong hoped that through forbearance, the central government of the northern region would act as a shield, so that the Western Special Zone could hide behind and prevent the great powers from discovering.Let the Wa Kingdom become the target of the Western Continent's powerhouses, and wait until they are exhausted from fighting before making a move.

Chapter 844 Heart of Subjugation

However, judging from the international situation after the Great War, Zhao Shouhong's thinking is wishful thinking.The powers of the Western Continent are very sensitive, and they will never allow any force that can threaten them to exist, even if it is not the central government of a country.

After annexing a large amount of territory in Northern Asia and the Middle Mainland, and at the same time snatching Australia and New Zealand from the Saar Empire, the Western District has inevitably been noticed.Now that the domestic chaos is no longer Zhao Shouhong's shield, it may become a sharp knife for the great powers to deal with the Western Special Zone.

If the Western Special Zone unites the whole country during the war, it may be possible to avoid such a situation from happening.But now that the countries in the Western Continent have withdrawn from the war, it is difficult to achieve this approach.All the powers of the Western Continent have great interests in Hualan Country. Once Zhao Shouhong launches a unification war, it is very likely that the powers of the Western Continent will find an excuse to kill them. This is not worth the loss.

Perhaps this is a strategic mistake of the Western Special Zone, but Zhao Shouhong has never been a person who regrets.Since he made a mistake, he had to find a way to make up for it, so he took the risk of supporting the Ottoman Republic, suppressing the morale of the Saar Empire and testing its bottom line.Facts have proved that Zhao Shouhong's approach is very wise, and the bottom line of the Saar Empire has been found.

The current Zhao Shouhong still won't touch the central government of Hualan Kingdom, because the Western Special Zone has already reached too high a level of importance in the sight of the Western Continent's powers.If he dared to move the Northern Territory government, in order to avoid the prosperity of the Hualan Kingdom, even if he tried to sell the iron, the powers of the Western Continent would launch an attack, not to mention that there was a Japanese country next to him who would never die.

The situation in Hualan Kingdom is already very delicate, to the point where even a single hair can affect the whole body, so Zhao Shouhong has to desperately develop the economy and military, waiting for the coming opportunity.In terms of military development, it is natural to use high technology as the driving force to update armaments, and Zhao Shouhong naturally wants to recruit a lot of leaders in the torpedo industry like the Whitehead Torpedo Company.

After hearing Zhao Shouhong's confident words, Ludger Aubrey's eyes lit up: "Great, I wonder if I can become a Hualan nationality?"

Zhao Shouhong was stunned when he heard this, and immediately asked back: "I'm very strange. In recent months, including Ai Triqi and Stella, more than a dozen scientists and technicians have applied to me for Hualan citizenship, while Today there is another entrepreneur like you, I don’t know why.”

Ludger Aubrey sighed and said, "Because of your decree of national equality, and because we lost our motherland, at least that's the case for me and Elrich."
