Warlords: Rising from the Northwest Border and Sweeping Across the Powers

Chapter 1131 Gloating over misfortune

The atmosphere in the presidential suite on the top floor of the Longteng Hotel is completely different from that of the British Embassy.

The diplomatic representative of the Bird Empire, Sekt, was leisurely sipping red wine, while the Italian representative, Marco Antonio, was leaning on the leather sofa with a playful smile on his face. The Hungarian representative, Horvath, the Romanian representative, Iancu, the Bulgarian representative, Ivanov and others also looked relaxed.

&34；看来那位&39；苏疯子&39；总统终于要对远东下手了，&34；塞克特晃着酒杯，&34；真是精彩的一步棋。&34；

"Yes," Marco said with a smile, "while we are holding back the main forces of Britain, France and the United States in Europe, he will settle the old accounts in the Far East. This is a great time to choose."

"The Führer has said this long ago," Seckt nodded, "China is our most reliable friend in the Far East. You see, they never interfere with our actions in Europe, and we never ask about their actions in the Far East."

"This kind of tacit understanding is the most precious," Hungarian representative Horvath interrupted, "unlike those hypocritical British and Americans who always boast about democracy and freedom."

"Speaking of which," Marco suddenly lowered his voice, "Have you seen those new weapons of China? It's incredible. Our military experts say that those technologies are at least 34 years ahead of the world."

塞克特若有所思：&34；是啊，连我们最新的&39；豹式&39；坦克在他们的&39；苍龙&39；面前都相形见绌。不过这反而更好，证明我们选对了盟友。&34；

"You say," asked Romanian representative Iancu, "will England and his men surrender Hong Kong City and Macau City obediently?"

"Do they dare not hand it over?" Ivanov, the Bulgarian representative, laughed, "Unless they want to repeat the tragedy of Fuso. The battle three months ago shocked the entire Far East."

Seckt put down his glass and said, "This is actually a good thing for us. Letting China dominate the Far East will help contain the United States. Once we have resolved the European battlefield, the world will belong to our alliance of will."

"What about the Far East that Su Zhengyang wants?" asked Croatian representative Kovacs. "Will Tsarist Russia give it to us?"

"We have to give it whether we want to or not," Seckt sneered, "The main forces of the Tsarist Russia are now on our front, and the Eastern Front is almost defenseless. If they dare to say 'no'... "

&34；那位&39；苏疯子&39；可是说一不二的主，&34；马可接话道，&34；谁要是不识相，怕是连谈判的机会都没有。&34；

Seckt stood up and walked to the window. The Presidential Palace in the distance was brightly lit. That was where the "madman" who frightened envoys from all over the world lived.

"To China," he suddenly raised his glass, "to our best ally."

"Cheers to China!" Everyone raised their glasses. Representatives from Slovakia, Finland, and Thailand also stood up and raised their glasses to celebrate.

In this era of reshuffling the world, they are glad to be on the right side. As for those former colonists? Let them tremble under the iron fist of that "Crazy Su".

After all, this world has always belonged to the strong.

"To be honest," Marco Antonio raised his glass with a gloating smile on his face, "I am really glad that Italy has no interests in the Far East. Look at what those English and Portuguese guys are like now, tut tut..."

"You Italians are lucky," Seckt said with a smile, "but it also shows that you have foresight. You gave up your colonial ambitions in the Far East early on."

"Isn't it?" Marco said proudly, "Now it seems that this is the wisest decision we have ever made. Those colonies will have to be returned sooner or later, so it is better to withdraw as soon as possible."

Hungarian representative Horvath suddenly interrupted: "Speaking of benefits, do you know? Half a year ago, China put great pressure on the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which really helped us a lot!"

"Oh? Tell me about it." Everyone became interested.

"At that time, Austria-Hungary was about to attack us," Horvath said excitedly after taking a sip of wine, "but China suddenly put pressure on them, and they immediately stopped. Tsk tsk, that President Soviet's words are more effective than our ten divisions of troops!"

"This is the influence of the strong," Croatian representative Kovacs exclaimed.

Slovak representative Koval suddenly proposed: "Everyone, I have an idea. Since China is so powerful, why don't we invite them to formally join the Alliance of Will?"

This proposal stunned everyone for a moment, and then the room erupted in excited discussion.

"Good idea!" said Romanian representative Iancu excitedly, "If China joins us, the whole world situation will be broken immediately!"

"Think about it," Bulgarian representative Ivanov said excitedly, "We are in Europe and China is in Asia. This is a match made in heaven!"

Seckt waved his hand and said, "Calm down, everyone. A powerful country like China may not be willing to join any alliance. They prefer to remain independent."

"That's right," Marco thought, "The strong never need to rely on others. But..." He suddenly smiled, "It's good for us to maintain this tacit relationship now, isn't it?"

"That's right," Seckt raised his glass, "Let the British and Americans worry about it. They have to deal with us in Europe and beware of China in the Far East. It must be unpleasant to be bullied by both sides."

"Cheers to this tacit understanding!" Everyone raised their glasses again.

The Finnish representative, Vykkonen, said with a smile: "I just want to see the faces of the English envoys. They will probably be worried to death in three days."

&34；那位&39；苏疯子&39；可不是什么心慈手软的主，&34；马可幸灾乐祸地说，&34；如果他们敢说个&39；不&39；字......&34；

"Then prepare to welcome China's new weapons," Sekt sneered, "just like Fuso."

Everyone laughed again. On this night that was destined to rewrite history, the members of the Alliance of Will were toasting to the coming great changes.

In the study of the Presidential Palace, Zhang Luanyu watched Su Zhengyang sipping tea elegantly and couldn't help but ask: "President, isn't three days too tight?"

"Too tight?" Su Zhengyang put down the teacup and sneered.

&34;But...&34;

"It's nothing," Su Zhengyang interrupted, his eyes sharp, "China now has the confidence to face everything. If you don't return it, then we'll go to war."

&34;What if they take the risk?&34;

Su Zhengyang chuckled: "They don't have the courage. Look at the current situation. Europe has become a mess. The main forces of England and France are tied down on the western front by the Bird Empire, and the United States is still dealing with the Asian Alliance in the Pacific."

He stood up and walked to the wall with a world map: "As for Tsarist Russia? Their main forces are dealing with Bird's attack, and the Eastern Front is almost undefended. Under such circumstances, who dares to go to war with us?"

&34;So you are sure they dare not resist?&34;

"Not only do they not dare," Su Zhengyang turned around, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, "they can't. Do you think they can afford it with our current military strength?"

"What if?"
