Struggle in Russia

Chapter 171 Aggressive Questioning

Li Xiao smiled slightly, but still did not follow the rhythm of Thomas Edwards, because asking questions is always easier than solving and answering, and you will never be able to answer all the questions of people who are sincerely criticizing and finding fault.

The correct approach is still to take control of the initiative and let the other party follow your rhythm. So Li Xiao immediately sneered and said sarcastically:

"Dear Mr. Counselor, don't you think what you just said is ridiculous. You vowed to rush to the meeting place of the Wallachian Oil Company, and arrested the Wallachian officials and social leaders who assisted the Wallachian Oil Company in its business. Sneering, and then you tell me you don't know who I am?"

"Are you blind or deliberately pretending to be stupid?!"

"Such hypocrisy and dishonesty, is this the so-called British way?"

Thomas Edwards was so stunned that he couldn't make a sound, because he could pretend to be stupid, but the people present were not blind! Who can't see that he came here to make trouble on purpose. Since it was on purpose, how could it be possible to not do research and make preparations? There is no such a stunned young diplomat, okay?

But if he admits that he was deliberately humiliating just now, it will appear that he is very tasteless and low-level, which is very rude and embarrassing. So no matter how he responds, he will lose points, so he needs a little buffer time to think about the coping strategy.

It's just that since the rhythm is in Li Xiao's hands, how can he give him time to think, and before he can think and respond, Li Xiao resolutely continues to fire violently:

"Well, it's hard for you. Although it is a very clear and simple fact, the fact is that you are a mean villain, you are here to find fault and sabotage, and you just don't like Wallachia and France. The relationship is friendly, you just want to destroy the people-to-people exchange bridge that has been built with great difficulty between our two countries!"

"Because you are envious and jealous! Because you are like a resentful woman who is neglected by your husband. You never think about whether you are doing well enough. You only complain that your husband is not passionate enough for you!"

"Emotions need to be managed. If you don't pay anything, you just want to sit back and enjoy the benefits. There is no such good thing!"

"Didn't you just ask me what contributions I have made to the people of Wallachia? I can tell you in a fair and honest manner that I have done a lot, such as writing to our official organizations to urge them to recognize the status of Wallachia. , to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the people of Wallachia;”

"For example, donating tens of thousands of francs to the Provisional Republic of Wallachia so that they can better carry out various tasks; and contacting international manufacturers to purchase weapons and ammunition for the Provisional Republic of Wallachia to help them protect themselves. Finally, I will open in Wallachia the largest oil company in all of Europe, providing jobs to thousands of Wallachians!"

Thomas Edwards was stunned,

I didn't expect Li Xiao to say that at all, because it's taboo to speak out about these things in public. After all, the Russians are still watching, so open support, isn't it a slap in the face of the Russians?

Immediately, he felt that Li Xiao was just a young man who didn't know what diplomacy was, let alone the unspoken international rules. Just when he was a little complacent and thought Li Xiao was a sand sculpture, Li Xiao's soul torture came:

"Then I would like to ask, what has Britain done for Wallachia? Or, dear Counselor, have you provided Wallachia with any assistance worth mentioning? Have you and your government provided funds? Or provided Supplies? But you can speak out publicly about anything worth mentioning. Let me, the so-called hypocrite who you just attacked as robbery, have a look at it and see how Britain treats Wallachia. And how selfless and great the help of the people of Wallachia is!"

After a short pause, Li Xiao sarcastically said, "Is it okay?"

Thomas Edward felt like he was being put on fire, because he thought Li Xiao was stupid, but he was not. Li Xiao could talk about helping Wallachia regardless , but he really can't.

Because even if the UK has provided help before, it cannot be said now. After all, he is a diplomat and must pay attention to the diplomatic influence. He must be responsible for every word he speaks. It is easy to give facts and be attacked. Now the country is strictly ordering them Do not stimulate Russia, do you think Thomas Edwards dare to say it?

Naturally, Thomas Edwards couldn't say anything practical, and he didn't have many practical things, so he could only stammer and say: "It is well known that our country's help to Wallachia Yes, there is no need for special publicity or special display, we always care about the people of Wallachia and are always willing to help..."

But Li Xiao pushed him back with one sentence: "What help?!"

He demanded sharply, "You're giving a real help instead of bullshitting here. Now it's common knowledge that you haven't helped at all! And you're still here with the audacity What the hell are you caring about? Where is your caring? How much money have you provided? How many weapons and ammunition have you provided? Or are you willing to provide military assistance and send the fleet here? There must be something that can be said? Yes ?"

"This... our country's help... we..."

Thomas Edwards began to wipe his sweat, because the scene made him very embarrassed, being questioned by a young dwarf in full view, it was too embarrassing!

In desperation, he could only get mad at Jan Gika: "Mr. Jan Gika, is this how you treat your friends!"

But before Jan Jika could answer, Li Xiao slapped him again: "What? You're ready to act violently if you can't tell the truth. Who just kept talking about friendship and accused others of being arrogant and shameless! I think You have interpreted these words very well!"

Not only that, Li Xiao took a step forward, stared into Thomas Edwards' eyes and continued to ask: "Now, please don't look at other people, this is a conversation between us, what do you mean by looking for someone else! Answer My question, what kind of help did the UK provide! If you can’t answer it, you can also tell me what kind of help the UK intends to provide to Wallachia! There is no real thing, and I can barely calculate it with a blank check You pass!"

Li Xiao asked loudly: "I hope you can tell me what kind of help the British government intends to provide to Wallachia! Can you answer?!"

Thomas Edwards naturally couldn't answer, because on this occasion, as long as he dares to say what assistance he will provide, the whole of Europe will know tomorrow, and then Russia will strongly protest, and then the prime minister will personally greet his old mother and family members , and then it is estimated that his job as a counselor will be over...
