485 Negotiation
"There is no problem for the 'Jingnan Army' to withdraw from Nanchang South and enter southern Gannan smoothly, but the east and west lines of the 'Wu Guang Line' must be guaranteed to be opened to traffic!"
"This is impossible! The East Line can be connected, but the Western Line is insufficient funds!"
"The eastern line is in the hands of the 'Jingnan Army'. Isn't it all up to you to decide whether to open or stop at that time? All two lines are opened to traffic, and the Lianzhou section of the western line in Hunan must also be stationed by the volunteers to maintain public order."
"Lianzhou is not your private property, so there is no need to talk about it!"
"There is no need to talk about it? Then there is no need to talk about it. The volunteers will get it by themselves! Nanchang and Yuzhang counties will find a way for the next three and a half months of food rations, and you 'Jingnan Army' will find a way!"
"Using the people as bargaining chips, are your volunteers still human?!"
"We still have human nature, so we will talk to you! Whoever destroys it should have built it!"
After Xiao Yuan was finalized as the next chief, the formal negotiations between the Volunteer Army and the "Jingnan Army" also kicked off.
The person who presided over the negotiation this time was Xiao Yuan, Guo Wei and Chang Kegong.
Because of his special status, Chang Kegong had many old friends in the Guangzhou Governor's Office, while Xiao Yuan was the special status after the Xiao clan of Lanling that the Feng clan in Lingnan should also be treated seriously.
Furthermore, at this time, Changsha had officially "seconded" Xiao Yuan to Nanchang, Jiangxi Province to serve as the acting governor of Hongzhou. It was just that the court's official documents were not coming. What is the attitude of the head of Jiangxi Province?
The situation in Jiangxi Province is not in line with the airborne bureaucrats. The strength and attitude of local snakes have the only reference value.
The Fang family in Jiangxi did not express their opinions on this personnel transfer, nor did they object or support them.
But Xiao Yuan came here this time to do things, so although the Fang family in Jiangxi did not make any statement, the media in Jiangxi Province still reported on this matter in a large way.
He also listed all the difficulties that Xiao Yuan had to face. For example, after the production cut in Jianghuai Province, a large amount of grain in Jiangdong was seized; for example, Xiao Yuan had no one available, and local bureaucrats might not cooperate; for example, the people at the bottom were very unfamiliar with Xiao Yuan, and perhaps they would involve their anger on the court's decree.
Wait, there are so many difficulties, which makes many Jiangxi people who know that Xiao Yuan is about to go to Hongzhou to "resist the disaster" and are worried about him.
However, before heading to Jiangxi Province, Xiao Yuan, who was in Hengzhou, must first have a batch of bargaining chips in his hand. The important transportation force of the "Wu Guang Line" must have.
With the "Wu Guang Line", things are half done.
However, the negotiations on the "Wuguang Line" encountered resistance from the beginning. The negotiators in Guangzhou obviously also knew the importance of the "Wuguang Line". If they can transport food, they will of course transport troops.
The current interruption of the "Wu Guang Line" is very important for the "Lingnan Xingtang Alliance" that needs to digest and absorb the results.
As for the people of Jiangxi who need railway transportation to transport grain, what does this have to do with them?
What if the Central Army comes with the food?
However, the "Lingnan Xingtang Alliance" could not afford the situation of starvation in Nanchang City. This is a developed city with a large number of industries, handicrafts and commerce. The losses are now very heavy, but this heavy is still tolerant for most people in the empire.
The reason is very simple. The "Jingnan Army" is still just now, but once you pat your butt and leave, it means that all the previous actions are illusions, and ultimately they betrayed the vast majority of people in the entire empire.
The "Lingnan Xingtang Alliance" cannot afford it, because at that time the surrounding forces besiege Lingnan and Annan, and there is no need to talk nonsense. As soon as we rush forward, the entire Lingnan and Annan will collapse, and even Guangxi will collapse.
The bottom line of negotiations is undoubtedly unlikely to be the "Wu Guang Line".
It’s just that asking for a price everywhere and paying it back locally is a basic operation.
"Only keep the Western Front! The Eastern Front cannot be kept!"
"The Eastern Front will not be retained for the time being, and the Western Front must be present. If there is a major disaster, the Eastern Front must be opened to traffic!"
"this……"
"Chairman Feng sent you here, and he must have raised the bottom line. The destruction of the 'Wu Guang Line' is still under control, but we must avoid losing control! Once a larger wave of refugees appears in Nanchang, no one can stop this news. Chairman Feng must step down. After finally getting on the stage from behind the scenes, should he still get back?"
"This secret execution!"
"The West Line must be opened to traffic, and the East Line will not be retained for the time being, but the Ministry of Railways will issue the maintenance time range!"
"The matter on the railway has no direct ownership relationship with both parties, so there is no need to issue a joint announcement, right?"
"Beware of gentlemen but not villains. Our Volunteer Army is in Hunan and Jiangxi. Someone believes in the speech. Your Jingnan Army is now saying Jingnan, no one believes in it, right?"
“…”
Xiao Yuan was very imposing. After the firepower was fully opened, he lowered his head and turned over a page, "If there is no dispute about this railway, it will be passed."
"Can."
"The next thing is about Guangzhou Port Passage. Any ship owner of the 'Huoyun Bookstore' will be cleared directly. The customs clearance fee will be settled every quarter!"
"No! It must be strictly reviewed, if there are any rebels..."
"All cargo ships! And the staff of each ship shall not exceed thirty people!"
"Perfect clearance fee is settled once a month!"
"We want to purchase grain and materials, and we can pay it once a month, but Guangzhou must give us a long-term loan!"
"Yes, but how do you determine the amount?"
"Based on the average monthly food consumption of millions of people within half a year."
"Can!"
"If this one is OK, then... has it been passed?"
"Pass!"
"Okay, next is about technical assistance. The following is the list of industrial equipment and equipment listed by us..."
Seeing Xiao Yuan directly took out a list of several large pages, the Guangzhou negotiator was irritated, while the theoretical leader Zhong Taishan sat there like a wooden man without moving.
After scanning the list, several of them were directly called by the Guangzhou negotiator: "Don't you want disaster relief?! Disaster relief requires advanced artillery barrel processing technology?!"
"It's normal to provide disaster relief, prevent civil unrest."
"You're scaring me?! This kind of thing is free of talk! There are also the latest model of small-mobile vehicles, and there is no talk! Rockets... no talk! Mortars? Grenade launchers? Flying eagle guns..."
Looking at the bunch of things on the list that had nothing to do with "disaster relief", the negotiator was furious.
Bang!
He slapped the table suddenly: "Take your mother! I'll give you a flop, let's drink the northwest wind!"
"So it's a negotiation now. Negotiation is done, and then the judgment is made. There is still time. We can send a telegram to the previous two phased negotiation results."
“…”
Chapter completed!
