?Guo Shouyun stepped forward without hesitation, got close to Victor, and at the same time pricked up his ears, intending to listen to the instructions of the "elders" confidently. . qв5.

"It's actually very simple," Victor said in a low voice, "At this moment, the Far East Military Region and the Pacific Fleet in your hands should also move. They are not there to look good, nor just to show their prestige. , you treat them as tools, and the most valuable tools in your hands.”

Guo Shouyun thought for a while, and suddenly said: "You always say..."

"That's right," Victor continued before Guo Shouyun could finish his words, "Just relying on a proposal to increase the number of military representatives may not be able to drive Hasbulatov into a hurry in the shortest time, but if If you add yourself in, he can't hold back any longer. So my opinion is that in the near future, the Far Eastern Military District should show some positive and positive attitude towards Lutskoy's actions in the Dnister region. This will send a specious signal. At the same time, the Pacific Fleet should also express some positive views on the Kremlin's tough stance on the issue of the ownership of the Black Sea Fleet. This approach has two advantages. First, , can stimulate Hasbulatov to the greatest extent, and confuse the sight of Rutskoy and the Kremlin. Second, this is also an insinuation, an insinuation of your attitude on the issue of border negotiations, and the relationship between the Far East Military Region and the Pacific Fleet. The tougher the attitude, the better the innuendo."

Head bowed slightly. Guo Shouyun thought about Victor's words from the beginning to the end, and a comprehensive plan was clearly presented in his mind: first, the proposal to increase the number of military seats in the representative conference provokes contradictions, and then uses a specious "tendency" Intensify this contradiction and directly increase the pressure on Hasbulatov. Wait until Hasbulatov can't stand the pressure. Move closer to him, and thus continue to maintain the comparative advantage it enjoys in the Conference of Representatives. If this step of the plan is finally implemented successfully, then my position in the core of Moscow's power will be very delicate. How can I put it? It is like the last chip in the power balance on Hasbulatov's side. With this chip, Hasbulatov can retain the advantage. And if he loses his own chip, he may lose all the ground positions. In this case, in order to protect himself, Hasbullatov, who is committed to leading the meeting of representatives, will go all out to protect the Guo Group, and any attack on the Guo Group is against Hasbratov. Tove's attack, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, you can't run away, you can't run away from me.

"Chip". Guo Shouyun likes chips. He not only likes to use others as a chip, but also likes to use himself as a chip when necessary - but it is the most important chip.

"Do you know what to do?" Looking at Guo Shouyun, whose brows were stretched and his head bowed in silence, Victor smiled and said.

"If I don't know what to do by now, wouldn't that be too stupid?" Guo Shouyun came back to his senses. He glanced at the old man in front of him and smiled, "What I really can't figure out right now is what benefits you and Leningrad will get from it this time."

"That shouldn't be something you need to pay attention to," Victor stretched comfortably, stood up from his chair, and said slowly. "You only need to know one thing, that is, you are my Victor's son-in-law after all, I have lost a son, and I never want to lose my only daughter again, as long as you don't put yourself in the wrong place because of ambition, then No matter when. I won't watch others deal with you."

"I understand." Guo Shouyun said sincerely. he knows. The old man's words are true, and there is no false element in it.

"As for the matter between you and Nina..." Victor hesitated, and then said, "I can feel that she is living a full life now, and her personality is much brighter. Come out, she is very satisfied with the current life, so I don't want to talk about the things between you. Well, how should I put it, Nina's temperament is actually very similar to me, and she has a strong concept of good and evil, but she understands Let it go. A woman like this is worth cherishing by a man. As a man, it doesn't matter how many women you have outside, it doesn't matter if you really have feelings with them, just to vent, in a word, Don't let down Nina's feelings for you, let alone hurt her. Otherwise, I'd rather give up all my plans and be the first to get rid of you. You little monkey is very shrewd, you should know me This is not an empty talk, I have that determination, and I also have that ability."

"Don't worry, for me, Nina is the only person who really cares about it," Guo Shouyun said sternly, "I, Guo Shouyun, are not a good person, but I also know what kind of people are worthy of my cherishing and what kind of people. The person is worth my sacrifice

"But you ignored Nina's emotions for a while," Victor said with squinted eyes, "Do you think that if you hide something, she won't know? Tell you, that's impossible. , Nina's mind is very sensitive, she has already guessed a little about Shana Riva's pregnancy, and she has never asked Shana Riva's whereabouts during this time, don't you think it's strange?"

Guo Shouyun's heart trembled, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

"This silly child has been forcing a smile in front of you all this time, but behind the scenes, she took advantage of the time when she was arranging a medical examination for you, and she did three examinations. She suspected that she was infertile," Victor apparently arranged a lot in the Far East. The careful eyeliner, so that he knows a lot of things that happen here, "Fortunately, there is no problem with the results of the inspection, otherwise, following a careless man like you, I doubt whether her spirit can still be supported. live."

Guo Shouyun was silent for a while, and let out a weak sigh. To be honest, he has never been the kind of person who likes to think too much about feelings, especially when it comes to dealing with women. In his eyes, there are only three types of women: one type of debt. Beating, one that can solve physical needs, and one that can stay by his side and accompany him for the rest of his life. There is no doubt that Nina belongs to the last kind of woman, but even so, he, the husband, did not spend too much time on others.

"Could it be that in the past year, my heart has become colder?" With that rare guilt, Guo Shouyun asked himself. It is too difficult to say.

"Okay, don't think too much," Victor was very satisfied with the son-in-law's response. He knew that although Guo Shouyun was a man of unscrupulous and cold-heartedness, his feelings for Nina were sincere. To say it is an anomaly, one might even say it is a miracle.

"If you're really sorry to Nina, then take the time to reassure her," waving his hand, Victor smiled lightly, "Speaking of you have been married for more than half a year, the old man's life is not much, don't you think? Did you ever think about having a baby?"

"Child?" Guo Shouyun shrugged and said helplessly, "Of course I thought about it, but I don't know if it was due to the wrong timing or some other reason, there was always no chance of winning the bid." "Winning the bid?" Then he understood, he gave Guo Shouyun a stern look and said, "You can spend less energy on those women who don't matter. The offspring is the most important issue for a person like you. If you don't handle it properly, it will often lead to problems. There are endless troubles, and you should think carefully about this issue."

"Understood, I will pay attention." Guo Shouyun said honestly. For Victor's reprimand, he did not have the slightest resistance, because he knew that the old man was speaking to him now as an elder, not as a political cooperation in the past. Guo Shouyun clearly distinguishes what kind of attitude should be taken towards elders and what kind of attitude should be towards political cooperation.

"Hopefully," Victor sighed. After all, the old man was getting old, and he felt a little tired after thinking and talking for a long time. "Then let's do it for the time being. You should hurry up and arrange the proper things as soon as possible. Your contact with China can be done in the future. If you are closer, you might as well let go of your cooperation with the Americans. Generally speaking, I am very relieved about your ability to grasp the degree. The only thing I am worried about now is that you will not be able to hold your breath at the critical moment and strive to win. Although it is a unique personality of young people, it does not match your identity. After this matter is resolved, I will devote all my energy to various affairs in Leningrad. As for you, I May not be able to give more help, so the Far East is more up to you.

After such a long time, Guo Shouyun once again realized the sincere concern revealed by Victor. In the vagueness, he felt that this concern was a bit unusual. If it wasn't for the old man's body still looking very strong, he would even doubt the other party. Are you suffering from a terminal illness? There are not many days to come.

"Well," Guo Shouyun just nodded slightly and replied in a low voice without saying a word of nonsense.

"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, you can go out first, I'm a little tired, I need to rest in your study." Going to the sand and sitting down, Victor rubbed the sun with both hands, his tone exhausted. Said, "You don't need to call me at lunch time, you can eat by yourself."

"Then I'll ask Nina to bring you a blanket," Guo Shouyun looked at Victor who was lying on the sand, hesitated, and asked.

The old man didn't speak. He rested his head on the sand armrest, his eyes were closed, and he waved to Guo Shouyun casually, which meant "no need".

"Hey, what are people fighting for in this life?" With a sigh of emotion, Guo Shouyun turned to go out. When he finally closed the door, he glanced at the old man lying alone on the sand, thinking, "No more. No matter how rich the power and wealth are, I am afraid there is no way to dispel the old loneliness."
