Chapter 466 Big Event (4)

Wang Zhenyu almost didn't sleep all night. From later generations, he knew that the two countries that had been unable to achieve unification and development before the founding of New China were nothing but other people. It was Japan and the Soviet Union, especially the Soviet Union. By the time of that situation in 1949, they were still planning to divide China into two and rule the river. Fortunately, the great leader was still a nationalist in nature, so the Soviet Union's attempt did not succeed. Otherwise, the compatriots south of the Yangtze River would not die happily. However, because of Wang Zhenyu in this life, the pace of national reunification was significantly accelerated, and it was almost time for the Soviet Union to export revolution to basically complete unification. Therefore, in this era when Britain and France were also weak and powerless, and American isolationism was still rampant, Japan unfortunately became the only stumbling block on the path of democratic, unity, prosperity, and unification of the Chinese nation.

Just when Wang Zhenyu thought that as long as he defeated Japan and kicked the stumbling block, everything that followed would become natural and smooth sailing, something unexpected happened. The Fengtian group suddenly changed and Zhang Zuolin died.

Wang Zhenyu thought for a long time and ordered someone to invite Xiong Xiling, Tang Shaoyi and Gu Weijun. These three people lived in Wuhan and never returned to Nanjing after Sun Yat-sen issued an order to remove Xiong Xiling from his position as Premier of the State Council. Wang Zhenyu obviously did not have the ability to deal with Sun Yat-sen, but did not have time.

In fact, since the Japanese army was severely damaged and trapped in Jinan, Japan's Takayama and others rushed to Nanjing and Wuhan, threatening to intimidate the Japanese Navy against Shanghai and Nanjing, and intimidated Wang Zhenyu to give up the siege of the Japanese army in Jinan. Wang Zhenyu was not scared. Japan was not afraid of launching a navy to attack. The Jiangfang Fortress designed by the Germans alone was enough for the Japanese to drink a pot. What he really worried about was that if he wiped out the Japanese army in Jinan, it would lead to Japan's full mobilization and fighting against China. Should he be able to bear it? It should be noted that Japan was still in the Taisho era in history, and militarism was not very strong. Japan's previous governments also advocated a policy of step-by-step and slowly eroding the issue of China. According to Wang Zhenyu's memory, before 1922, Japan's main The direction of expansion is not China, but in Siberia, Russia. However, due to many reasons that cannot be clearly recorded historical materials, the Japanese army was finally driven out of the Far East by the Soviet Red Army, which seemed very weak. Therefore, if conditions permit, Wang Zhenyu still hopes that Japan will not be able to spread the country’s strength to fight with him. After all, the industrial production capacity in his hands is only barely equal to Japan. It’s really a waste of life. Given the real situation inside, Wang Zhenyu’s confidence is really a bit lacking. Whoever dares to guarantee that the generals under his command will not make mistakes, whoever dares to guarantee that no one under his command will have rebellious thoughts. This time when fighting against Japan, the Kuomintang showed great rebellious signs. Wang Zhenyu was so angry that he scolded Sun Yat-sen as a traitor, so he saved his thoughts of stopping when he was about to be successful.

"Old Xiong, Old Tang, and Brother Shaochuan, today I invite you to come here with only one goal, end the war in Shandong, and temporarily repair it with the damn little Japanese. The specific method still needs to be thought of by several of you, the old foreign affairs who often do diplomacy." Wang Zhenyu was polite as always. This is why the subordinates are willing to work for him desperately. They are treated well and polite to others. Such a boss is a standard model in the future.

"Wenzheng, what happened? Aren't we the upper hand in Shandong? Why do we have peace talks?" The most nervous one was Xiong Xiling. After he and Sun Wen had a falling out, they must have been tied to the same boat with Wang Zhenyu.

Wang Zhenyu waved his hand and said, "Old Xiong, don't be anxious. Our army will win this battle. If the little Japanese are not dead, they will lose their skin. When will the young army disappoint everyone? But Zhang Zuolin is dead. Now the situation in Northeast China and North China will naturally become chaotic. I thought for a long time. It is unrealistic to eat fat in one breath. My idea is to resolve the war against Japan in a peaceful way and focus on completing domestic unification,."

It was another morning meeting. Everyone took the secret letter sent by the secret envoy of Prime Minister Kei of Japan, Kato, and studied it for more than a day. Finally, Gu Weijun analyzed a not-so-good conclusion.

"According to Yuan Jing's idea, we should maintain the current situation and keep Japan's interests in China unchanged, and then untie the siege of Jinan and allow the Japanese army to withdraw from Jinan to Qingdao with decent ease."

Wang Zhenyu thought for a long time: "Shaochuan, if you go to talk to the Japanese, you can be stronger, don't be afraid. At worst, you can just turn against each other and fight. If you want to fight now, they really can't get any advantage. I don't believe that they can fight on both sides. Peace talks are not easy to talk about. There are actually not many things we can give in, because I have several principles here that you must stick to."

As he said that, Wang Zhenyu stood up and walked with his hands behind his back:

"First, don't talk about sovereignty issues, and you will fight for every inch of land. Whether it is Qingdao or Lushun, which is what the Japanese call Kanto Prefecture, I will take it back. The Japanese should not be confused about this issue. We can make compensation in terms of economy, and the Japanese army will definitely not be allowed to exist on China's territory.

Second, don’t talk about the core economic issues. Projects such as transportation and mineral resources that are related to international livelihood will definitely not be allowed to be fucked by the Japanese, so I will definitely take them back from Mandarin Railway Company.

Third, the Japanese's economic investment in the Northeast region can be transferred or continued to operate, but they must abide by the law. If it cannot be done, it can be acquired at a unified premium by our Chinese Development Company.

Fourth, Japanese people who reclaim in the Northeast can continue to live and reclaim, but they must operate in accordance with our laws and regulations. At the same time, Japanese people no longer enjoy diplomatic immunity.

Fifth, abolish all unequal treaties, and leave the issue of Boxer Indemnity to discuss with Britain, France and other countries."

Wang Zhenyu thought for a while and said, "Ideals are full, reality is skinny. Brother Shaochuan, you must know that it is not easy for us to talk about rise on the premise of being surrounded by the great powers, so many efforts are necessary, and we need to have a long-term vision and direction. As for the money paid to the Japanese, you can set the total amount first. The payment method is best to pay in installments. I don't want the Japanese to arm their army with a huge sum of money and then beat me up."

Gu Weijun carefully finished the record, read it, and said, "Master, I guess the Japanese will definitely not agree, because once they agree, it means that the Russo-Japanese War, which has paid a huge price, is a waste of time. Maybe they would rather sacrifice 50,000 troops than agree to such conditions."

Wang Zhenyu also felt that he was a little too ideal. He sat down and looked at Gu Weijun, an excellent diplomat, with interest, and said, "Then tell me, what should we do."

Gu Weijun thought for a while and said, "Beizhi believes that since it is necessary to let the Japanese give up such huge benefits, there is only one way to find new profit points for them. Only in this way can the Japanese give up their vested interests in the Northeast. As far as Beizhi knows, the Japanese have always had a huge plan, which is the mainland plan. They have always been eager to obtain a piece of land in the Asian continent. North Korea is just their springboard, but North Korea is not a good place for development, so they will continue to seize land and resources from our China. It's just that China is too sensitive. The greater the pace of Japanese expansion, the higher the degree of disgust between Britain and the United States. Beizhi has been studying the foreign policy of the new Japanese Prime Minister Haraki Haraki in the diplomatic archives of the National Security Bureau for half a month, and found that this person is a friendly existence to us. Although he supported the battle in Shandong, from his ruling thoughts, he is ruling. It is not a big harm to us. He believes that cooperation between Japan, the United States and Britain is extremely beneficial to the country's future. On the contrary, if Japan is alienated from the United States, it will be very dangerous. He believes that Japan has implemented an expansionist policy against China by force so far, which has caused friction between Japan and Europe and the United States, and has caused Japan to be isolated internationally. He opposed the Okuma Cabinet's proposal of twenty-one articles on China. It is also out of the belief that doing so will stimulate China's nationalist sentiment, not only damage Japan's friendly relations, but also Western powers will suspect that Japan has ambitions for China, which makes Japan isolated internationally. Under the policy of not interfering in internal affairs, He regards Japan's friendship as the basic policy to China. The latest intelligence shows that with the situation of the war in Shandong, the Japanese army is in a disadvantaged or even overturned situation, He has considered removing the position of Yoshiichi Tanaka, the main planner of the Shandong battle."

Wang Zhenyu touched his chin and thought about it. In history, Yuan Jing was indeed known as a civilian prime minister and a peaceful prime minister. However, his luck was not very good. At that time, the Beiyang warlord government in northern China was in opposition with the southern government led by Sun Yat-sen. Yuan Jing determined that the Chinese north and south governments reached a compromise to establish a unified government. Japan would establish a basic policy of establishing friendly relations with this unified government. After the establishment of the Yuan Jing Cabinet, it immediately prohibited borrowing and exporting weapons from the northern Chinese government. Based on this idea, Yuan Jing Cabinet decided to pass the United States proposal. The new China loan group provided loans to China. The basic China policy of the Hei Kei cabinet was established on the premise of coordination with the United States and Britain, in the spirit of non-interference in internal affairs. This means that Japan has placed China within its sphere of influence with its military force, and has undergone a huge transformation in its mainland policy of supplying resources such as iron and coal and Japan's products export market. Although Hei Kei insisted on ensuring Japan's interests in Manchuria and Mongolia (Northeast China and Inner Mongolia), he still wanted to strengthen Japan's influence in China through economic activities.
