"Welcome, Guillaume Nikolayevich. I know that you and Prime Minister Pepe's family are family friends. How are you? Is everything okay with Mr. Kolchak? I heard that you are doing well on the left bank of the Volga River. The 10th and 8th armies of the Soviet Red Army suffered heavy losses, and Tukhachevsky's 1st Army was also in panic all day long in Saransk. It seems that victory is possible! "
The King of China's words almost made Hastings, who was tired of his life, roll his eyes and faint. This man shouldered the great trust of the White Guard regime in Kazan and Kolchak, the supreme governor of Russia, but when he arrived in Samara, he unexpectedly He couldn't even see the king of China. Although his old friend Pepelyaev entertained him very considerately, with women and fine wines and delicacies, Hastings's mind was not on it at all. In the end, he was forced to Having no choice but to take out a gun and put it to his head, he forced Pepelyaev to lead him to see Wang Geng. The fastest update.
"Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief, it is really difficult to meet you. If I hadn't put a gun to Ziji's head, I'm afraid that the Prime Minister of the Volga Federation would not be able to bring me to see you. You know, although Pepe is capable and capable He is extremely loyal, but in the Volga Federation he is just a steward at best. You and your Allied forces are the ones who talk about this land! "
While Hastings hugged the Chinese king and bowed, he smiled bitterly and whispered in the ear of the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, without caring about the face of Pepelyaev, the Prime Minister of the Volga Federation Cabinet, behind him.
Wang Geng smiled and patted Hastings on the back. After letting go, he asked the guests to take their seats and explained, "The war in Ukraine has just started, and domestic telegrams are flying over one after another. I really couldn't get out last night." Shiji¨¡n, Guillaume, you are Pepe's old friend. The Volga Federation and the Allied Forces on the Eastern Front welcome you as a guest at any time. Of course, if you are willing to join the Volga Federation, I will still serve Pepe as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs. Can you do it? Are you interested?¡±
Hastings and Perelyaev, who had just sat down, were dumbfounded when they heard this. Pepe was familiar with the temper of the Chinese king, and knew that the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces was not just making a joke to liven up the atmosphere, but sincerely wanted to recruit Hastings. The Volga Federation is now an emerging political power. The most lacking thing in all things is talent. Pepe, the prime minister of the cabinet and head of the government, is so busy that he even sleeps with several lovers to deal with official duties. Seven of the Pepe family All the relatives of the aunt and the eighth aunt who had some ability to match the government were enlisted by the federal government and the National Defense Force to help, but even so, there was still a shortage of people.
Hastings's military command ability is far superior to that of Pepe. At the beginning of the Kazan regime, Kolchak was the political leader and supreme consul, not to mention the troika. Below, there was a civil and military power, and Pepe was the prime minister. Pelyaev, Wu's main military commander is Hastings. Although Pepe had an addiction to commanding 4 infantry divisions to guard the northwest defense line in the Battle of Ufa, compared with Hastings on the left bank of the Volga River, Leading hundreds of thousands of people to fight against the Soviet Red Army is really nothing.
However, Hastings came to serve as the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Volga Federation. According to Vasily Nikolayevich Pepelyaev, it was still a bit unworthy. Hastings could at least serve as a staff officer of the Volga Federation. Of course, the position of Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Military Affairs now rests on Denikin's head. However, Denikin's ability is more than inferior to Hastings. Denikin can command an army. In combat, commanding the front army may be stretched thin.
And Hastings leads troops, the more the better. In the Kazan White Guards, this think-tank-type chief of staff is almost the brain and heart of Lord Kolchak. The White Guards can still function without Pepelyaev, or even less. Kolchak may not really be unable to move, but once Hastings is missing, even Kolchak will not know what to do next.
"High! Really high!" The Prime Minister of the Volga Federation was praising the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces in his heart for this olive branch that had given the Kazan regime a blow, and he hurriedly expressed his position, "Guillaume Nikolayevich, I can't write it in one sentence. Two Nikolayevichs, your father and my father are both nobles from the Tsar's palace guard. If we can join hands and fight under the leadership of the Commander-in-Chief, the future of the Volga Federation will be brighter. ! On behalf of the 10 million people in the 1 million square kilometers of the federal government, I sincerely welcome you to join us!¡±
Hastings was completely unprepared. Who knew that Pepe actually sang a double act with the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces? He was here to negotiate and ask for help on behalf of the Kazan regime and Kolchak. This was a good thing for the other party. It was embarrassing. I didn't talk about it all night, but now when they met, they actually waved an olive branch and wanted to recruit Ziji to poach Kolchak's corner. This made Hastings's mind a little hard to recover.
After a moment of hesitation, Hastings smiled bitterly and said, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, Your Excellency Prime Minister, I am the plenipotentiary representative of the Kazan regime and His Excellency Kolchak. At this moment??This is not the time to talk about private matters and my personal future, otherwise I would have betrayed the trust and expectations of hundreds of thousands of White Guard soldiers and His Excellency Kolchak. Let's talk about the subject of our negotiations, shall we? Of course, personally, I am very grateful to His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief and Prime Minister Pepe for their trust and invitation to me, but it is really not the time to talk about this. "
"Haha, that's okay let's talk about it and see if Kazan needs us to do something." Hastings's reaction was as expected by the Chinese king. In fact, it was Pepe. In Wang Geng's previous life, he was the guy who followed Kolchak all the way to the dark side and refused to look back. If Guillaume Nikolayevich Hastings was the guy recruited by n¨¤merongyi, he might not be in line with the king's wishes. .
Hastings just came here, took the tea from the guard and put it on the coffee table without drinking it. He straightened up and looked at the King of China and the Federal Prime Minister and said,
"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, Vasily, Kazan believes that the Allies' support for the two Russian regimes west of the Ural Mountains will continue for a long period of time, using the uncompromising Kazan regime and the White Guards to suppress Soviet Moscow and the Bolsheviks. Using the Volga Federation to stabilize the situation in the rear allows the main force of the Allied Eastern Front Alliance to open up the Eastern Front battlefield in Europe. Therefore, if we defeat the Soviet Red Army, it is definitely a situation that the Allied Alliance is more willing to accept than if the Soviet Red Army defeats us! "
