War is just to tear the flesh and blood of other countries and feed yourself back. This is the essence of all wars. If there is a difference, it is just to eat good looks or not.

No one is innocent. As long as you are a member of the victorious nation, you will definitely get some fruits of victory. This is just a lot of distribution.

For the failed nation, everyone must share the bitter fruit, of course there are many differences.

You, Blankey, have always talked about the suffering of the working class. You said you did not directly invade China, nor did you receive compensation from China. It is okay to take these words out and deceive children, but it is absolutely impossible to deceive Xiao Letian.

The French Emperor went to war all over the world, and the colonies expanded one after another, and the money they plundered was countless... Yes, this money did not directly enter the pockets of the poor, but the overall wealth of France must have increased.

Not to mention anything else, where did the Ottoman Duke’s plan to make the Paris renovation money? Did the emperor pay for it out of his own pocket? Or would he snatch it from the nobles?

After all, we must adjust the income from the colonies and war reparations. Of course, you say there are taxes, but don’t forget that there is already a lot of plundering funds in France’s overall wealth.

War will naturally lead to plunder, and the wealth stolen by the officers and soldiers will eventually be spent. The funds spent in France will surely nourish all industries in the process of commercial flow.

They would buy famous wines, which would make the brewers profitable, and they would buy silverware, which would increase the wages of silversmiths in Paris.

The poor people you led by Blankey do have a hard life, but no matter how difficult it is, can you guarantee that there is no money plundered from overseas in the money they earn?

Whether you are poor or not has nothing to do with whether the money you use is clean. This does not mean that you have not absorbed the nutrients of plundering funds. You just get less.

You dare to say that you have no sins on yourself? You dare to say that you are innocent?

No matter whose pockets are first entered in China, the money will be circulated in the end, and circulation will definitely create wealth and benefit the entire commercial society.

Since the entire French society has benefited, you are still obliged to repay war reparations!

You have already lost this war, so France must also bear the war reparations. Don’t think that you can cleanse your sins by declaring the collapse of the empire and establishing the Republic?

Don’t be fools when we Chinese are all fools, because the wealth you plundered from our China will also flow in your current republic!

There are countless ethnic groups in the flesh and blood of this country! Don’t think that if you change your name, you will be exempted from guilt!

If this is true, then I owe you a million francs, and I just need to change my name and don't have to pay it back? What a joke...

Blankey was squeezed by Xiao Letian's words and his face turned red and his neck was thick. "Even if what you said makes sense, how should it be defined? The poor citizens can't even have enough food, and they don't have any money for you!"

"War reparations are unfair to these poor workers and peasants! No one has the right to grab money from their rations!"

"Do you know how many children are starved to death every year in Montmartre Heights and the East Side? How many are frozen to death? They can no longer bear any plunder!"

Xiao Letian bite and growled, "That's your problem! Is it my responsibility for the uneven distribution of your Republic? Did I, Xiao Letian, mediate internal disputes for you?"

"Who should bear the amount of the war compensation should be solved by you... If you can't solve it, then someone else will solve it!"

"Internal conflicts are your own problems, not ours!"

Blankey took a deep breath, "That's what we must fight? You have chosen to be an enemy of the French people? Since that's the case, why bother to negotiate with me..."

Xiao Letian shook his head and calmed down his emotions, "No, no... On the contrary, my negotiation with you is precisely a manifestation of my sincerity. I actually don't want to kill anyone anymore. All I want is to persevere to the end and the moment I finally share the interests..."

"To be honest, all I'm afraid of is that someone hacks my interests, so I want to come to Paris early to occupy a position that belongs to me..."

"Actually, I want to talk about cooperation. Anything can be discussed in diplomatic occasions. Is it really necessary to go all the way to the darkness of an isolated force like you?"

Blankey's face changed slightly and looked at Xiao Letian thoughtfully, "Okay, let me see your trump card, let me know what you want to do when you come to Paris?"

"War reparations are necessary, and there is no room for negotiation. We Chinese have died and lost so much wealth. Someone must be reimbursed..."

"Don't show a reluctant expression. You are not asking for money from your pocket. What do you feel sorry for?"

"After all, you are still a nationalist in your heart! Do you really think that nationalism and the principles you pursue can be integrated?"

One sentence changed Bronkey's face because it was not the first time he had heard such doubts. Comrades in London had questioned him. Although there were not many people saying this, they had a very high status and a very large influence.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Letian also pointed out this topic today, which made Blankey a little confused for a moment.

Why do many comrades and comrades from other countries always laugh at themselves as utopians? Why do old friends in London keep asking me to give up my fantasy of the right and follow the path of independent armed forces?

Are you really wrong? Why did even the Chinese say this in the end?

One by one, one question made Blankey fall into deep thought!

Xiao Letian has long seen through the trump card of Blankey and others. Although they are passionate, they have no direction. From what they said just now, they have seen through the essence of their nationalists.

When is it now? Do you still not understand the reality? You actually want to advise Xiao Letian not to withdraw from the compensation voluntarily? Being able to say such words proves that Blankey still puts the entire French nation first in his heart.

This is very difficult to deal with. The entire French nation includes countless classes and countless interest groups, and even the royalists are a member of this nation.

You are a nationalist in your heart, which means that you love the subject of this nation, and you will also have sympathy, compromise, concession, etc. for all the classes in it!

Such indecision in the struggle is fatal. You, Bronke, are the rightists who are their own people and the blood relatives of the same nation!

But do you think you are a relative? Such weakness has laid the foreshadowing of the final failure!

But Xiao Letian can only mention these words, but he will never be able to say them clearly!
