Chapter 705 Dagger!

Zubov was immediately stunned.

Stanisław II gestured for his attendant to fetch a map, and began to discuss with the Russian State Minister which areas should be ceded in detail.

Not until after five in the afternoon did both parties finalize the new border between Poland and Russia.

Stanisław II generously allocated most of the central and eastern provinces to Russia.

Then, he picked up the treaty drafted by Zubov: "You see, just amending these clauses in the constitution won't guarantee that those fellows in the Congress won't harbor ill will towards His Majesty the Emperor again.

"We should discuss a detailed plan to ensure that the Congress does not defy His Majesty's wishes."

Zubov's eyes widened as he nodded: "Okay, good."

The armistice negotiations entered the fourth day.

Stanisław II glanced at the Russian guards armed with live ammunition at the entrance of the negotiation hall, thinking to himself: It's been 22 days. Warsaw still needs 18 days.
