Bloody Heart

"Mr. Soviet, I came north to see you this time to ask for your help. Some time ago, Yongzhu stated that the reunification of the peninsula can only be solved by war. I also hope that the peninsula can be reunified as soon as possible, so I come here Seeking your assistance in military matters."

"Let's put this matter aside for a while. The first thing to consider now is our neighbor in the south."

"You mean...?"

"Wang Yao will soon become Wang Yao's 'comrade'. Let's give him a peaceful cradle."

This conversation took place in March of 1/9/4/9, when Wang Yao's current boss was busy crossing the river, and Wang Yao was waiting for his already clear destiny in Nan/Jingcheng.The two parties in the conversation are Paul and Ren Yongzhu's northern brother, Ren Yongjin.

At this moment, at the ceremony of signing the friendship treaty between Paul Braginsky and Wang Yao, Ivan suddenly remembered this passage again.A map of East/North/Asia was conjured up in his mind, and Ren Yongjin's location happened to be next to Wang Yao's east/north.At the beginning, Paul rejected Ren Yongjin without hesitation, the purpose was to win over Wang Yao.But now that Wang Yao has taken back his East/North, in Ivan's eyes, he is no longer that useful.Ren Yongjin's position suddenly became important in his mind.

At the signing ceremony, Wang Yao tried to talk to Paul about his sister several times, but was beaten back by Tai Chi.This Soviet comrade has also learned a lot now, he no longer has the beautiful fantasy of being able to meet all Wang Yao's requirements, and he carefully chooses to think twice before acting on what Wang Yao proposed.And Ivan, who was standing not far away, looked at Wang Yao's furrowed brows, and raised the corners of his mouth to reveal a hint of mockery.

After sending Wang Yao away, Ivan drafted a telegram to Ren Yongjin after negotiating with Paul, telling Ren Yongjin that if he wants to unify the peninsula by force, he is welcome to come to his revolutionary comrade Soviet to discuss related issues at any time.

——Bring it, Ren Yongjin.Your sea outlet and ice-free port.

Ren Yongjin was overjoyed when he received the telegram. He watched Wang Yao get such a rich sweetness from Paul, and he was very envious; now it was finally his turn.Excited and apprehensive, he boarded the train bound for Moscow.

Arriving in Moscow, Paul quickly met him, in a personal capacity.When he knocked on the door, Ren Yongjin was still rehearsing the memorized script in his heart, no matter what, he wanted to persuade the Soviet to help him get back Yongsu who was separated from the family.You must know that the two of them have just separated for a few years, and the family is still very backward, and they have to rely on the two big countries around them for everything.Wang Yao himself has also finished fighting foreign wars and fighting civil wars, and he is no better than him, so Paul can be regarded as his main dependent.Fortunately, this mentor was kind to him, and he didn't have any high airs. It was indeed the sincere friendship between "revolutionary comrades" that connected them.

There was a reply from the door, Ren Yongjin pushed the door open, and when the door closed behind him, a glass of crystal clear vodka just rightly appeared in front of him.Ren Yongjin looked up in astonishment, and following the hand holding the wine glass upwards, he saw Su Wei's soft short platinum hair and slightly curved colorful eyes. "Take it away, my arm is a little sore." Su Wei'er stretched his hand holding the wine forward a little, urging.

Ren Yongjin had no choice but to take it, and took a symbolic sip, but he felt that he was a little dizzy after just a little.His whole brain was tied up with one thought: what does this mean?What is he doing?

Paul was very natural. He retreated to the chair and sat down leisurely. On the small table in front of him was a bottle of Story vodka and a glass half filled with wine.He stared at Ren Yongjin for a while, and suddenly laughed: "You definitely don't know how dramatic your expression is now. Come on, please sit down—what are you hesitating about? Didn't you come to me to talk about something? Is it?"

Ren Yongjin had no choice but to sit down opposite him, staring at the bottle of wine and couldn't help feeling a little dry.

"...I'm here to discuss business with you." After careful consideration, he decided to express his dissatisfaction with such words.

"I know." Paul shook the glass indifferently, "You tell me."

Ren Yongjin felt a little unhappy about being underestimated, but he didn't want to get entangled with one of his backers on such a trivial matter, so he could only say: "Okay, then I'll say it. Alfred said a few days ago about Yong-soo's safety He is not responsible, you know that, right?"

Paul nodded and poured another glass.Ren Yongjin was speechless to him, just pretending he didn't see it: "Do you think if I fight with Yongsu, will he send troops?"

"No." Paul replied simply.

"In this case, can you support me?" Ren Yongjin felt that he was about to succeed, and couldn't help becoming anxious.

Paul put down his glass, looked at him and said leisurely, "I can give you weapons, but I won't send troops."

Ren Yongjin was stunned again. He recalled it carefully several times, and confirmed that the telegram inviting him to discuss the unification of armed forces in detail was indeed written by the person in front of him.But why did the other party act so indifferently when I really came in front of him—could it be to test myself?But... why is there a need to try?He was a little confused.

"Mr. Soviet," Ren Yongjin put away his misgivings and continued to try to persuade Paul, "I assure you that with the help of your army, I will win. So you have nothing to worry about. Even, You should be happy too."

Paul looked at him with his chin propped up, looking unmoved: "Why should I be happy?"

Ren Yongjin said: "Because if I snatch Yong-soo back, he will also become a member of your camp. You also know," he said with a slightly helpless smile, "Yong-soo is always said by others. He will believe anything, and Alfred must have been instigated to break up with me this time. But no matter what, I am his elder brother, and my words must be more effective than Alfred. If you can help me snatch him back , let me have a good talk with him, and he will happily follow you. Isn’t this actually equivalent to poaching Alfred’s wall?”

Pavel fell silent thoughtfully.Ren Yongjin believes that these words will surely convince him, because it has caught the fate of the Soviet Union.The tit-for-tat confrontation between Paul and Alfred is well-known to passers-by. After all, Ren Yongjin has learned from Wang Yao for so many years, and he still knows how to use this trick.

Finally, after a while of silence, Paul nodded and said, "That makes sense."

Ren Yongjin was overjoyed immediately, and tried hard not to show his smile. "Great, you..."

Paul raised his hand to stop his next words, looked at Ren Yongjin who was brimming with excitement, and said calmly: "However, what does that have to do with my sending troops?"

What a blow to the head.Ren Yongjin felt as if he had run a long circle, sweating profusely and exuding heat all over his body, and was suddenly poured a basin of cold water on his head.

"I...I need your help to get Yong-soo back..." He almost felt his teeth chattering.

Paul stood up from the chair, picked up the wine glass on the small table, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.The sound of the wine glass falling on the table when it was put down made Ren Yongjin's heart tighten again.Su Wei looked down at him, and Ren Yongjin felt that his half-smile was full of irony.His attitude is still very kind, the same as many times before: "I didn't say that I won't help you, Comrade Ren Yongjin. I will give you equipment, and I will give you as much as you want, but soldiers can't. That's right, you can dig Of course I'd love to drop the nail that Alfred put right under my nose, but you never thought what would happen if I fought him face to face and let the whole world know--yeah, how could you think What about these? The will of the country is only for itself. If you want to continue to persuade me to send troops, then I advise you to go home as soon as possible."

Ren Yongjin was speechless for a moment.Not for the reason Paul said, but for the phrase "the will of the country only cares about itself".This made him feel a little hurt.Obviously just talking about things, just discussing things as they are, but Paul made such offensive words, and Ren Yongjin was even more disappointed when he was astonished.

That's right, the will of the country always puts itself first, but is this wrong?Obviously it's a matter of course!Which country is irresponsible to its citizens if it puts its own interests aside and does not accommodate others!

But this is not the thing that chills him the most. What chills him the most is that the person who said this in an accusatory tone turned out to be the country he respects the most besides Wang Yao.This is tantamount to drawing a clear line between the two, reminding Ren Yongjin all the time that no matter what the person in front of him does for you, the ultimate goal is for himself.Why?Why should the boundaries be drawn so clearly between allies?

Ren Yongjin suddenly thought of the long years of thousands of years ago, Wang Yao's figure came to his mind, no matter whether it was a brocade dress or a green shirt, the man's smile was light, but it was always as warm as spring water.He once said that you take all the things I gave you, and come to me if you have any difficulties; he once said that if others come to beat you, how can I not take action, you can also be regarded as my brother.He once said, oh, we are all one family, why do we have to distinguish so clearly, Yong Jin, you child think too much.

It is called Xia because of its great etiquette, and it is called Hua because of its beauty.

Among all Wang Yao's names, Ren Yongjin's favorite is "Huaxia".He knew that he followed Wang Yao completely voluntarily, because of the great etiquette and beauty of that man, because that man was a modest gentleman and gentle as jade, and because that man had the bearing of a sage inside and a king outside, so everyone in the world returned their hearts.

As for Paul Braginsky, he also said that the socialist camp is a family. Comrade Ren Yongjin, we will be a family in the future.

But he also said just now that the will of the country is only for itself, so you should go home.

——At that moment, Ren Yongjin suddenly woke up like a dream.He suddenly understood that he was to the Soviet only because the king/dao was no longer domineering in troubled times, but he was only forced to succumb to hegemony.

"Okay, I see what you mean. Then, Mr. Soviet, thank you for your material assistance. I'm going back."

Paul didn't know that Ren Yongjin was thinking about so many things in a moment of trance, he just showed that kind of gentle, delicate but stylized smile, and told Ren Yongjin: "Comrade Ren Yongjin, if you really need troops urgently For support, I think you might as well ask Comrade Wang Yao. He has more citizens and fewer worries, and he must be more willing to support you than me."

Yes, he has more citizens and doesn't have to worry about triggering a world war with Alfred, but he has just had a respite for less than two years after fighting a foreign war and a civil war.Ren Yongjin thought silently, but nothing showed on his face.

Before he left, he simply said, "Okay, I see. Thanks for the advice."

Three months later, Ren Yong went in to meet Wang Yao; one month after he returned to China, artillery fire rang out on the peninsula.

1/9/5/0年6月25日，朝/鲜内战正式打响。

"Mr. America/Li/Jian, I protest against your actions! Wang Xiaomei occupies Wang Yao's permanent seat in the United Nations but does not participate in the meeting, resulting in the inability to exercise her rights. Your resolution is illegal without the consent of the five permanent members!" Manipulation The Security Council can't even bring it to the table!

Facing Paul's angrily slapped on the table, Alfred sucked on Coke and didn't care. The white cold light reflected by the lens covered his eyes that were as warm as the Pacific/Ping/Ocean sea water. "Please figure it out, Wang Yao's inability to come is his own fault, and Wang Xiaomei can't be blamed, OK? You don't have to defend your little lover to such a thing!" Behind him, Arthur, Matthew, Francis is lined up, and there are more than a dozen countries that were once colonized by Arthur or Francis, and there is a golden hair in the distance.

"Go to your little lover!"

Alfred was very happy to see Paul angry, and continued to fan the flames: "The treaty is signed on Valentine's Day, why should you be embarrassed? It is clear that it is to show love to the world! It also ruined HERO's holiday mood... Hey! Handle dangerous objects with care, Arthur help!"

And his behavior of rubbing against Arthur caused the island gentleman to push him away with disgust: "...I don't know you, don't come here."

Really low IQ, Alfred is a low IQ animal, but his own IQ has been lowered anyway.Sitting in the car, Paul’s heart was clouded with dark clouds. Alfred manipulated the Security Council to gather a 16-nation “United Nations Army”—in fact, the fifteen were only used to make up the number—flagging to help Lim Yong-soo resist The aggression from Ren Yongjin is ready to intervene in the peninsula war.This is the last thing Paul wants to see.He is very contradictory now. Originally, when Ivan drafted the initial telegram sent to Ren Yongjin, he really planned to help Ren Yongjin unify.He had already made up his mind, to end the war before Alfred intervened, he could definitely take Ren Yongsu under his command, and make that stupid golden retriever lose his temper at all.However, Ivan's plan is different from his. Ivan believes that the peninsula war should be used as an opportunity to test Wang Yao and force Wang Yao to help Ren Yongjin fight.

At that time, Paul immediately expressed his objection: "How can that be done? If Alfred can't take the time to intervene, Wang Yao will die if he goes."

Ivan said, "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't let him go."

Paul shook his head: "...Even if you want to squeeze Wang Yao's surplus value, you can't do that. This shows that we are too dishonest. Anyway, we are allies now, and I am stronger than him, so I should provide protection. right."

He thought that this reason was unassailable, but Ivan dismissed his opinion unhurriedly: "Soviet, it's not us who are insincere, but Xiaoyao. He already asked you to leave when the treaty was signed. With so many things, if he has to rely on you who are thousands of miles away in the face of a war at his doorstep, doesn’t it mean that he intends to treat you as his rear? Having such an ally is not good for you.”

Paul still remembered the cruel yet meaningful expression in the purple eyes of the Great Empire: "When Ren Yong comes in, it's up to you to tell him. Please be sure to tell him that you will not send a single soldier. Think Troop support is needed," he tapped his fingers carelessly on the map, "just go to the south."

But now, after learning of Alfred's plan, the idea of ​​being ruthlessly beaten/suppressed by Ivan before re-emerged in Paul's mind.On the land back home, he strengthened his determination time and time again. When the plane landed, even he himself believed that the favor was done.

"Lucia," he found Ivan non-stop as soon as his feet touched the ground, "you must already know Alfred's movements." He said as he took off the scarf.The affirmative sentence is used, and the lines between the lines are filled with complacency and determination.

When Ivan heard this, he put down the document he was looking at and stood up from his chair. "I know. I was going to talk to you about it. What do you think?"

"Do we still need to talk about it?" Paul put the scarf on the back of the chair, walked around Ivan and poured himself a cup of tea, and said with the teacup, "I told you that Wang Yao couldn't handle Alfred .If Alfred wins on the peninsula, a knife will be directly stuck in our back. I don't see any reason not to send troops at such a juncture." After speaking, he took a sip.

But Ivan still shook his head. "no."

Paul put down his glass and was about to speak when Ivan stopped him with his hand and said, "Listen to me. You're right, Alfred is indeed dangerous, but he hasn't arrived yet; if Regardless of your previous refusal attitude, you rushed to enter the peninsula before him, and the impact on public opinion will be very bad."

"Just because of this?" Paul sneered, "Am I still afraid of public opinion? When did the Western media say anything good about me!"

"That's true, but it's not over yet," Ivan walked up to him, "Alfred is a hidden danger, isn't Wang Yao?"

"……what?"

Ivan twitched the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with coldness: "Alfred is your greatest opponent. He is the only equal in power to you in the whole world, but precisely because of this, he can't act rashly. Because any rash provocative behavior will cause harm to you." It may trigger a world-scale war. Therefore, Alfred has a lot of concerns, and he is not very confident about putting his hand under your nose. Even if he really controls the peninsula, you can pass Political means drove him away.

"But Wang Yao is different. Wang Yao is your ally. According to the current national strength, he is also a protected country. He has sufficient reasons to ask you for money, armaments, resources, and technology. You are forced by the agreement. Give it to him. He can unknowingly use your things to nourish himself, and when the country is strong, he will compete with you for the dominance of the socialist camp. Don’t look at me so surprised—he definitely has this ambition. Just imagine, which country with a population of hundreds of millions and an area of ​​nearly tens of millions would be willing to be a vassal of others? Besides, it’s not like he’s never done an empire…” He wanted to say that all empires are the same, but Paul stopped him.

"Enough!" The young man's face was ugly, "Stop talking, Lucia."

Ivan originally wanted to continue talking, but seeing the other party's expression, he decided not to say more. "You must have seen what I mean."

Paul folded his hands unconsciously on his chest, put on a defensive posture, and pointed out a little angrily: "You think too deeply about people's hearts! I doubt whether you have signed alliances with other countries in the past. , you don’t trust any country other than yourself at all!”

Ivan's answer was still soaked in coldness: "The will of the country already possesses extraordinary reason."

The Soviet showed a sarcastic expression: "Yes, I know you are the will of the country, but doesn't the will of the country have any emotion? After you have formed an alliance with other countries, do you only consider how to use each other? That really chills me. Because in my opinion, the reason why an ally is an ally is precisely because the use is limited, and trust is the premise." His tone gradually became agitated, "If the entire value of the covenant lies in the use, can I doubt it? You are also using me, you are also assessing how much residual value I have, thinking about when to leave me? The so-called 'unbreakable alliance'-in your eyes, it is simply a joke!"

When the last sentence came out of his mouth, he felt a strong sadness in his heart.A lot of people and things rushed into his mind in an instant. He remembered that Ivan told him not to be impatient very early on, he remembered that Ivan helped him open the window for trade with Alfred, and he remembered the first two five-year plans Ivan used all the resources to let him use it, remembering that after the war began, Ivan called on all his family members to fight for him.And what if Ivan did all this because he thought he still had surplus value to use?What if behind Ivan's generosity and reluctance, there are indifferent evaluations?

This kind of assumption made him dare not even think about it.

What he said subconsciously made him afraid.And Ivan's long silence on the other side made him feel as if he accidentally broke the truth.That's right, from the very beginning, Ivan planned to kill him.Later, he suddenly became so cooperative. If it is not used, it really does not make sense.At this time, his thoughts were extremely clear, and he seemed to see through many things in an instant.

"Forget it," he waved his hand, mocking himself, "Why are you asking this? It's going too far. I just want to tell you that I don't intend to stand by and watch the situation on the peninsula. But as for the timing of intervention, what do you say?" It makes sense, and I won't intervene now."

He drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, picked up the scarf, and moved smoothly: "Thank you for your suggestion, then I will take my leave."

In fact, when he turned the doorknob, it wasn't that he didn't expect Ivan to seize/seize this last chance to explain his question just now.However, until he closed the door behind him and walked far away, there was no sound of another person chasing him around.

Alfred will be here soon.In the blink of an eye, his plane arrived at the peninsula and bombed indiscriminately, and even "accidentally" bombed Wang Yao's site.After a wave of ups and downs, a wave rose again, and then he claimed that Wang Xiaomei should remain neutral, Wang Xiaomei's current status has not been determined, etc., and drove his Seventh Fleet into the Taiwan/Taiwan Strait.

At the end of June, Wang Yao accused Alfred of illegal behavior, but it had no effect at all. Sitting in Zhong/Nan/Hai, Wang Yao could imagine Alfred saying "objections are not accepted" .Fortunately, Ren Yongjin's side is still doing well. Two and a half months after the start of the war, his People's Army has liberated 6% of the territory of Yongzhu's family.

Wang Yao was still a little worried. After all, Alfred hadn't left yet, and he couldn't figure out what this guy would do.He sent several telegrams asking for Paul's opinion, but the replies were all ambiguous and he stayed on the sidelines.

At the end of August, Alfred's strong firepower showed his advantage, and Ren Yongjin's troops were blocked from attacking Pusan.Feeling bad, Wang Yao quickly sent several telegrams to Paul, emphasizing the possibility of the US military landing from the side, hoping to attract Paul's attention and let him send troops.But Paul's reply was chillingly indifferent.It’s not that Ren Yongjin didn’t think about asking Paul for help, but Paul returned him a long telegram, telling him that his situation was worse than that of Ren Yong when Arthur and Francis intervened on 1/9/1/9. Jin is much more difficult now, Ren Yongjin should keep in mind that his friends will always support him and so on, the empty words are better than the singing, but the matter of soldiers is not mentioned in half a word.Ren Yongjin looked at the thin piece of telegram, wanting to cry but no tears.

Gradually, both Wang Yao and Ren Yongjin gave up hope for Paul Ivan's attitude.Wang Yao and Chen Bing's 90 troops are ready to cross the Ya/Lu/Jiang to fight Alfred alone at any time. Ren Yongjin also commanded the People's Army with poor equipment and few people, and launched the most violent attack on Pu/San.His onslaught achieved considerable results, Alfred was defeated, and he was about to jump into the sea.Wang Yao's heart relaxed a little, it seemed that Yong Jin really had the hope of winning before Alfred cut off his back.

But this hope was dashed within half a month. In mid-September, Wang Yao's worries came true. More than 9 U.S. troops launched a large-scale landing battle behind Ren Yongjin, easily cutting off Ren Yongjin's supply line.However, at this time, the best time to send troops to support has passed, and Wang Yao's family was full of opposition, so he had to put this proposal on hold.He could only comfort Ren Yongjin who was beaten and retreated steadily, and felt anxious for him.Soon, Seoul was taken back by Alfred to Im Yong-soo's side, and Im Yong-jin's battle south of the 1th parallel basically collapsed.

And Paul in the north, from the beginning to the end, watched quietly and coldly.

In October 1950, Wang Yao finally decided to disregard his family's opposition and Paul's indifference, which was completely different from his memory, and sent troops to fight against the mighty Alfred alone. In the early morning of October 10, Wang Yao sent a telegram to Moscow, which Paul received late at night on October 10.The telegram stated that he would send volunteers. When Paul received it, he dragged Ivan out of bed regardless of the time.

He waved the telegram in front of Ivan: "Look, you have been waiting for a long time."

Ivan had just been dragged out of the bed, and he was still not in a good state. He stared at the telegram for a while longer than usual before he finally understood what was written on it.Paul said again: "Now the aid force you have already started to form can go to the battlefield?"

The former Mr. Empire finally slowly sobered up. "...you already knew?"

"Very easy," Pavel retracted the telegram, his tone tinged with smugness, "it would be foolish of you to try to hide it from me."

Ivan nodded: "It seems so. Then, let's follow your arrangement."

Paul was not surprised when he said that. He just nodded his head flatly, and then the conversation went back to the question just now: "Speaking of concealment, you seem to have forgotten to tell me one thing." He said coldly Looking at Ivan, with a faint aggressiveness, "I just found out that Wang Yao wanted to send troops a few times before, and he only waited for my attitude. But you secretly seized his telegram without letting me know, and dismissed him privately." request!"

Seeing Ivan acquiesced, a familiar anger began to ignite in Paul's heart again: "Lucia, are you really planning to destroy the trust between me and him?!"

Conversations involving the matter fell apart a few months ago, and now it's sparking conflict again.This time, Ivan was also a little impatient: "Why are you always entangled in the same problem? I don't want to explain it again. I want to make sure that you will not be taken advantage of after forming an alliance. Is there something wrong with that?" ?"

Pavel ran through his hair impatiently. "Of course there was a mistake, it was wrong from the beginning," he muttered a few words in a low voice, and then his tone suddenly increased, "We are forming an alliance, forming an alliance, Lucia! You didn't even give him any basic trust, and forced him to To the point of fighting Alfred alone, Wang Yao will also lose confidence in us!"

"Of course not," Ivan retorted without hesitation, "Your assistance is written in black and white, so he will not take the initiative to end this special relationship. In any case, it is you who should be more careful!"

"Oh Lenin...!" Paul inserted his fingers into his hair, with a look of almost madness covering his face.He paced back and forth in the room for several times, then stopped suddenly, pointed at the tip of Ivan's nose and gritted his teeth, saying, "Well, I see you through—you really impress me!"

Ivan was very displeased with his offense, frowned, and raised his chin towards the door: "You have nothing else to do? Then go quickly, the military order is still waiting for you to issue."

His tone was indifferent and alienated to Paul's ears for a long time. The Soviet found that Comrade Lucia, whom he once trusted the most, was in the final analysis the high-ranking Emperor Russia, indifferent, suspicious, and emotionless.He once thought that Ivan the Empire was dead, or that he had made him change; but now Ivan's attitude clearly shows that he sees things in the same way as before, and that his influence has a great impact on Ivan. It is also insignificant.This discovery made him feel as if he was standing naked in the snowstorm in Oymyakon, and was instantly frozen into an icicle from the inside out.

——Fortunately, fortunately, it was not too late to discover.It's a bit sad, but luckily it hasn't turned into a big mistake.

"What's the matter? Are you still leaving?" Ivan's cold voice rang in his ears again.

Paul felt his heart was stabbed severely, and the blood flowed out mixed with hopeless loss: "Okay, I'm leaving."

This is the first time since he joined the alliance that he was completely defeated and fled.
