The Governor decided to ignite Andrei's emotions, and shouted unwillingly: "Your Majesty, negotiating with those natives under such circumstances will only harm the interests of Russia! I only ask the Governor in the name of the Russian official
Stop any contact with them immediately! Please order the governor to go to war immediately!"
"Andre, I can understand your mood, but now we must make a decision. If these natives cannot retreat, we will be attacked from both sides. []"
Golonai looked at his beloved subordinates and said in a deep voice: "The hope of dealing with the Qing Dynasty lies with the Jungar people, but if we can't hold on to the day when the Jungar people take action, then everything will be over for us. So.
, We must not go to war with these natives, otherwise we will not have the strength to support Tolbuzin in Yaksa, nor will we have the strength to last until the day when the Qing army is transferred away!"
"But!"
Andrei wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Golo: "Nothing! You should know that when I came to the east on the order of His Majesty the Tsar, our army was fighting the Turks!"
"Yes, I once asked His Majesty the Tsar to send me to the Western Front to teach the Turks a lesson, but I failed."
Speaking of this matter, Andrei felt a little regretful. In his opinion, being able to join the Russian army fighting the Turks was the most proud thing for an officer, rather than coming to the far east to deal with the natives.
Golo sighed after hearing this and said: "You should be glad that you were not sent to the Western Front by His Majesty the Tsar."
Andre was stunned: "Why?"
"Because our army failed, and failed miserably." Goluo closed his eyes in pain and said slowly: "The news of the defeat was only learned the night before I set out to the East, so for me to come to the East
His Majesty the Tsar had an explanation with Princess Sophia about the final mission. They gave me three demarcation plans and ordered me to act accordingly because we are already trying to fight a large-scale war with the Qing people in the east."
"Three demarcation plans?" Andrei was surprised. Why had the Governor never mentioned to him that His Majesty the Tsar had an explanation for demarcation?
Dhruv was also moved after hearing this, and listened carefully. Unfortunately, the Governor-General did not intend to disclose these three demarcation plans.
Golo told the truth. Before he came to the east, Tsar Peter the Younger, accompanied by his sister Princess Sophia, gave him the bottom line of his eastward mission, namely three alternatives for negotiating with the Qing people on the demarcation of national borders.
The first option is to use Heilongjiang as the boundary, the second option is to use Nerchinsk as the boundary, and the third option is that if the first two options are not feasible, we can mutually agree to send a delegation in the future to negotiate a solution.
Luo Ze insisted on using Heilongjiang as the boundary from beginning to end, because he wanted to take the opportunity to encroach on more of the country's territory so that he could ask for rewards from the Tsar. But he never thought that the Qing negotiation delegation he expected did not show up, but the Guan Ning army showed up.
, they not only threatened themselves with force, but also occupied more than half of Russia's territory in the east. They were simply a combination of thieves and bandits.
But according to the current situation, if it cannot sign a demarcation plan with Guan Ning's army as soon as possible and formulate terms of joint resistance to the Qing army, it is undoubtedly an unwise thing for Russia. Golo is not worried about the ability of the natives to break through
The city of Nerchinsk was strong, but being trapped in the city like an iron barrel was not something he could bear. According to the plan, the Jungar people probably still had a few months to successfully attract the attention of the Qing emperor. Before that, only
Relying on the fact that Yaksa delayed the Qing Dynasty to the north. Therefore, Nerchinsk must be able to send reinforcements to Yaksa and have a certain ability to protect himself. Otherwise, Tolbuzin would not be able to defend for such a long time with a few hundred troops.
Once those damn natives cling to their energy, they will inevitably be unable to reinforce Tolbuzin in time, and they will cut off Nerchinsk City's connections with other places and block caravans, which is equivalent to strangling the Russians in the city.
neck, making them unable to breathe.
A dead city like Nerchinsk will not play any role in the upcoming war. If Yaksa falls before the Dzungars take action and the Qing troops approach Nerchinsk, they will have to abandon Nerchinsk. By then
, how do I explain to His Majesty the Tsar, and how do I face Princess Sophia, who is determined to put me to death?
Negotiations must be negotiated immediately. Since these natives hope to form an alliance with Russia, let them fight with the Qing team!
After making up his mind, Golo no longer explained anything to Andre, and ordered in the name of the Governor and the Imperial Minister to immediately restart negotiations with the Guanning Army.
Under Goro's pressure, Andrei and some of the war officials had no choice but to obey, but Dhruv and the Buryat people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
On March 29, the border negotiations between Russia and Russia resumed after a one-day break. After six days of quibbling and old-fashioned threats of force, Golo signed the Treaty of Nerchinsk with Russia on behalf of Russia and Zhao Qiang. The treaty included
It is divided into seven sections, each section has several articles, and the full content is as follows:
Guan Ning, Commander-in-Chief of the General Office of the Army, Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army Zhao Qiang, Staff Officer of the General Office Liu De, Ten Thousand Households Qizhuang, and He Manchuan; the Russian state ruled the territories of Great Russia, Little Russia, Belarus, and the territories of the east, west, and north as a hereditary dictatorship
The God-blessed Sovereign John Alexeyevich and Pyotr Alexeyvich sent Golo, the minister to the Governor of Bryansk, and Andrei, the captain of the Nerchinsk Guard, to meet near the city of Nerchinsk on April 4th.
Hunters from both sides are restrained from crossing the border to hunt, kill each other, rob, and cause trouble, and the border between Russia and Russia is clearly defined for the purpose of permanent reconciliation. The terms of the special agreement are as follows:
1. The two sides use Dujigensk as the boundary. The Ergun River, Jingqili River, Yask and Duolunchan to the east of Dujigensk belong to the Guanning Army; the west of Dujigensk and Nerchinsk
The Heilongjiang River Basin belongs to Russia. The two sides use Dujigensk as the liaison center and do not set up any military armed forces. From the date of signing the treaty, the Guanning Army must retreat from Dujigensk and dismantle all fortifications.
Second, out of humanitarian considerations, Russia compensated Guan Ning's army 100,000 taels of silver and 1,000 taels of gold, in order to require Guan Ning's army to properly bury the bodies of Russian soldiers who died in the battle. In line with the need to jointly fight against the Qing Dynasty, Russia paid close attention to Guan Ning's army.
In return, Ning's army provided 800 muskets, 400 war horses, 1,600 dan of grain, and some armor and saddles.
3. The Russian officers and soldiers captured by the Guanning Army should be handed over to the Russian side within one month. The Russian side agreed that the ransom payment for officers should be three hundred taels of silver per person, that for soldiers should be thirty taels of silver, and that for civilians and women
The redemption fee is ten taels of silver per person. The transfer of prisoners should be based on the prisoners' own wishes, and the Russian side shall not forcefully ask for them.
Fourth, the Russian side agrees to open all commercial exchanges with the Guan Ning Army's border strongholds and cities. Each side levies commercial tax from the other party's merchants at a tax rate of 5%. The Guan Ning Army must ensure that the prices of all products under its rule are equal.
In this case, priority will be given to selling to Russian businessmen, and the Russian side will also do the same.
5. The Guan Ning Army can purchase from Russia the arms, war horses, food and other materials it needs. Russia must abide by this treaty and provide the materials needed by the Guan Ning Army, and the price must be negotiated in the appendix. Once agreed, it cannot be increased for any reason.
Price of supplies sold.
Sixth, after the treaty is agreed upon, Russia shall not forcibly expropriate the residents of various ethnic groups living under the rule of Guanning Army, nor shall the Guanning Army carry out plundering activities in the areas controlled by Russia.
7. Military mutual assistance clause. This clause stipulates that from the effective date of the treaty, the Guanning Army and Russia will be in an alliance. Both parties promise never to invade each other's land, kill each other's personnel, and send military personnel to each other to establish permanent military contact points.
All relevant military matters between the two sides will be negotiated and handled through the military liaison point. At the same time, this article stipulates that no matter which side is attacked by what kind of enemy, the other side must provide war assistance in compensation and jointly attack the invading enemy. At the end of this article
In order to express the friendship between Guan Ningjun and the Russian Empire, Guan Ningjun can send a diplomatic delegation to Moscow to the Russian Empire.
8. Article 8 is the last article. If Russia needs it, the Guan Ning Army can send an expeditionary force to Russia to help Russia eliminate neighboring hostile countries.
Zhao Qiang came to this article just for fun. Russia's European territory is thousands of miles away from here. How could Guan Ning's army have the strength and leisure to help them attack European countries. Originally, this article was just to make up for the "eight"
"Several" is a good thing. When the previous seven items were pulled back and forth by both sides, the Russians agreed to the eighth item without even asking. It can be seen that they did not think that such an impossible clause had any effect.
.
On April 5th, Zhao Qiang and Goluo signed separately, officially confirming that the main clause of the treaty came into effect. But the matter was not over yet. The terms of mutual assistance between the two parties in fighting against the Qing team still need to be negotiated, and the appendices to the main contract still need to be completed.
, Therefore, Zhao Qiang will stay in Nerchinsk for a few more days.
