Volume 1: A sound on Wall Street, Xinxiang City is busy copying books Chapter 11 The Red Queen
Chapter subtitle: The very evil Sino-Soviet relationship
"Bacuse your country was already not yet born."
Anastasia understood the first sentence, but not the second. She just followed her maternal instinct and hugged the distraught young man in front of her with open arms.
A man and a woman who had also lost their homeland hugged each other silently.
But Yuan Yanshu was a young man after all. Not long after, the man and woman who had also lost their country, silently embracing each other, both felt that something was happening. Naturally, the following events would be omitted by tens of thousands of words...
Hush, keep your voice down. Let us quietly recall the history of Sino-Soviet relations.
Just as the real history happened decades later, after the sudden outbreak and then protracted Korean War, the Soviet Union and China, two socialist neighbors, could be said to be extremely close class brothers and sisters, and the two sides seemed to be able to become one country together. At that time, the Soviet Union could almost be said to be wholeheartedly helping the rise of China's industry. But when the Oriental Rooster really demonstrated its huge strategic potential, the attitude of the other side changed subtly.
When the Soviet Union wanted to cool down the relationship between the two countries and curb China's rising momentum, it angered the Chinese little brother who had already given a lot of enthusiasm. The two sides were just verbal debates at the beginning, but soon there was a small-scale conflict on the famous "Zhenbao Island", but because of the restraint of both sides, the real war did not break out. Afterwards, the Soviet Union and China each deployed millions of troops on the border to confront each other.
However, the Soviet Union's strategic situation was even worse, as it was attacked from both Asia and Europe, and Afghanistan, the graveyard of empires, took up a lot of the Soviet Union's energy. The long-lasting hostility finally ended with the collapse of the Soviet Union, but China gritted its teeth and survived the most dangerous moment, and the relationship between the two great powers entered the next chapter.
At this time, both countries were facing complicated domestic situations and had no time to take care of themselves, but the hostility from the Western world made them stick together for warmth. Although Russia, which emerged from the collapse of the Soviet Union, was still a little reserved and a little resistant at the beginning, with the massive import of cheap industrial products from China and the demand for massive energy, they finally came together and became a comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership. Yes, the lack of cooperation between any of them would turn the situation in another direction.
After the Crimean crisis, Russia was sanctioned and extremely weak. It was only with the support of China that it could barely maintain its traditional sphere of influence. But it didn’t take long for the resilient Russia to recover a little. However, it turned out that to fight against Western forces in Syria, it still needed China’s silent support behind Russia.
The relationship between the two countries is so entangled and complicated, and they are welcoming the dawn of a new world with bumps and bruises.
The east was getting light, and the red-haired woman beside him was still sleeping, making cute little snoring sounds. But our Master Yuan woke up, pulled his numb arm out from under Anna, and turned his shoulder with a grin.
Yuan Yan suddenly thought of the unbreakable tradition of "a cigarette after sex". He did not turn on the light, but found his clothes in the morning light and took out the cigarettes inside. He looked back at Anna who was sleeping soundly and walked into the small kitchen.
“Click.”
He turned on the gas stove, bent down and lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, held his breath and let the smoke carrying nicotine, tar and various harmful substances stay in his lungs, and then slowly exhaled after a long time.
I don’t know if it was because of the hearty cry last night that made Yuan Yan suddenly feel relieved, or if it was because of the several yin and yang harmonizing exercises at night that extinguished the evil fire in Master Yuan’s heart. In short, he now feels like he has been reborn.
People really should not dwell on trivial matters. If you always want to be a savior, what good will it do to the world, the country, the nation, and yourself?
The Chinese nation, a thousand-year-old nation, is like a long-forgotten sword. It must be placed on the anvil of time and forged with the hammer of history to regain its sharpness. Yes, this process is extremely painful. It not only removes the rust but also the fine steel, and it not only grinds away the impurities but also the backbone. However, this is a necessary process. Napoleon I awakened the nationalism of the people of all Europe through war and conquest. The Chinese nation must also experience the pain of childbirth to give birth to a common will.
What the great Chinese empire needs most now is a huge fire that can burn away the rotten wood that blocks out the sky, the tangled thorns, the decayed and decadent weeds, and the pests hidden deep underground.
Human beings, as intelligent creatures, cannot learn from their mistakes, and even if they fail, they may not necessarily learn from their mistakes. History is an upward spiral. If we suffer less now, we may suffer more in the future.
And as a time traveler, I am always so conflicted. How can I continue on the path to becoming a master?
Whether it was an excuse or psychological comfort, our Master Yuan finally let it go.
He finished smoking, went into the room and put on his clothes... Oh, where's my tie? He looked around and found that his tie was still tied to the bed railing and Anna's hand, so he had to tiptoe over and untie it.
After Yuan Yan was dressed, she naturally took out the American Great Men from her trouser pocket and placed it on the table, pressing it with a cup. Then, she glanced at the still sleeping red-haired Anna and quietly left...
He was about to open the door, but suddenly turned around and walked back to the table... Leaving a little money on such a meaningful night was an insult to Anna... What kind of girl or Ms. Na is that? It was also a disdain for himself!
No, I have to leave something for the world's first bed partner. What should I leave?
First time, first time, KO...well, PERFECT!
"Master Ball, how many B coins does it cost to print the novels in the database?"
"Host, it's one-tenth of the original cost. But as a free benefit, you can print it for free."
"Then print it, wait..."
Yuan Yan suddenly thought that the novel was too long, and he had to edit it. He pulled out the novel from his mind, drastically removed a lot of unnecessary content, and then asked the Master Ball system to "print" it out.
He looked at the pile of manuscripts on the table with satisfaction, and then remembered something. He touched the inner pocket of his suit and found that he didn't bring a pen. But this didn't bother our Master Yuan. He picked up a piece of leftover cucumber, dipped it in the "bloodymary" left in the wine glass, and wrote a line of red dedication on the title page:
For the Red Queen of the Queens Country.
(To the Red Queen of Queens.)
