Chapter 1157, the situation in Asia

In early May, Wu Shaoting held another temporary motion meeting of the Asian Community in Nanjing, and the heads of the four countries arrived in Nanjing as promised to attend the meeting.4∴

At this meeting, the main motion initiated by Wu Shaoting was to absorb Myanmar and the Khmer joined the community camp. Although China is the leading country in the community plan, in theory, this motion was just a form of going through the flow, and the other heads of the three countries dare not violate their intentions. However, this motion still encountered certain obstacles, which lasted for seven days.

The reason for the serious dispute is that North Korea and Vietnam, taking into account the current national conditions of Myanmar and Khmer, rashly joining the Asian Community will only drag down the development of other member states. Of course, strictly speaking, what is dragged down is resource sharing. Myanmar and Khmer can take advantage of the advantages of other member states of the Asian Community to live more development at a less cost, so it is very unfair to other member states.

Not only that, Myanmar is currently in warlord separatist situation. How can we join the community for common development without complete national sovereignty? If this generation of zhèngfu accidentally overturns other warlords, wouldn’t it directly undermine the internal constitution of the community?

Although there are also many warlords in Vietnam, the situation is different from that in Myanmar. Because all the warlords in Vietnam are supported by China, and a considerable number of the warlords in Myanmar were generals who were loyal to the British Indians, so the two countries cannot be compared.

As for the Khmer Kingdom, the country was in great poverty, almost to the point where even the standing army could not be maintained. The overall level of the country was very backward and lacked sufficient precious resources. Except for other member states of the community, it would be difficult to keep up with the pace of development.

In short, the situation in Myanmar and Khmer is too bad to cater to the principle of the interests of the community plan.

However, for Wu Shaoting, he knew very well that the Khmer Kingdom and the Republic of Myanmar helped the community plan. The Asian countries were too backward and suffered more than a century of invasion of the West. If they want to completely get rid of discrimination from Western countries, they must be closely united, develop together, prevent together, gather less and become more, so as to achieve the effect of strengthening the country and the people. Please be familiar with the domain name.

This is the main reason why Wu Shaoting hopes to win over Myanmar and Khmer to join the community as soon as possible. Although the comprehensive strength of these two countries is relatively backward, the so-called "suffering development" refers to delaying the development speed of the original plan, and does not mean that the community member states stagnate or retreat in development.

In his opinion, slow development is still moving forward. Since we must sincerely develop the community plan, we must not care about too many prejudices, but instead examine future interests with a longer-term perspective.

After all, the Asian community is still very fragile, and the economic development of various countries can be temporarily placed in a secondary position. The most important thing is to make the community stronger as soon as possible and avoid taking various measures to curb Western countries after they are alert.

At the Nanjing Motion Conference, Wu Shaoting tried his best to explain the future interests of the Khmer Kingdom and the Republic of Myanmar's joining the community, but unfortunately he was still suspicious of the Council. In the end, he had to use foreign means to put pressure on North Korea and Vietnam, which forced them to make some concessions in this regard.

The Movement has only passed the Khmer Kingdom to join the community for the time being, and the Republic of Myanmar lacks a solid regime, which has caused many member states to lose their basic confidence, so it cannot be easily passed. What's more, the Community Plan originally had the most basic rules and regulations, and not all applicant countries can successfully join at will. If the regulations formulated were destroyed at the beginning of its establishment, what is the significance of the Community Plan?

Wu Shaoting did not continue to force it in the end. After all, he did not have enough confidence in the Republic of Myanmar, so he asked the Khmer Kingdom to join the community first, which would not have much impact on the Asian community.

In this way, the Khmer Kingdom, as its fifth member state, joined the Asian Trade Community and the Military Community.

On May 11, the Nanjing Presidential Palace received an emergency telegram from Wulianghai.

The telegram was first sent to the Foreign Ministry by the Secretary-General, Wu Tingfang, Lu Zongyu, Lu Jianzhang, Gu Weijun and others who read the telegram one after another and realized that it was an external incident that should not be underestimated. Everyone had an urgent talk for a while, and then Gu Weijun and Lu Jianzhang brought the telegram to the presidential residence to negotiate the matter with the head of state.

Wu Shaoting had just finished his meeting with foreign ministers of the Khmer Kingdom. After seeing off the guests, Lu Jianzhang and Gu Weijun hurried into the office.

"Langzhai, why are you here? What's the matter?" Wu Shaoting turned around and asked.

"Head of the People's Republic of China, a telegram came from Tsarist Russia, which was sent from Moscow." Gu Weijun said with a bit of solemnity.

"Oh? That's right. I've been too busy for a while and I'm almost forgetting things in the north." Wu Shaoting suddenly came over. He walked to the president's desk and sat down, adjusting his tone and said, "What's the matter?"

"Nicholas II hopes to make peace with us." Lu Jianzhang took a step forward and handed the original telegram to Wu Shaoting's desk as he spoke.

"Is that so? This is a good thing. I am also considering a truce in the north. In short, I have taken back the Wulianghai. The Second Army of the North has completed its strategic mission. Disputes such as the Outer Xing'anling and Vladivostok can be resolved through negotiations. In short, since we have the advantage now, there is no need to be polite to Nicholas II." Wu Shaoting said slowly, with an attitude of conquering Tsarist Russia. He picked up the telegram list on the table and took a look. The content was just some official notifications. The specific peace talks naturally need to be arranged separately.

"The Head of State, even though he said that, if we really want to negotiate peace with Tsarist Russia, we are afraid that we should be more careful in foreign negotiations. We have received rumors before, and Germany seems to have made some slight remarks about the armistice in South Asia. If we negotiate peace with Tsarist Russia again, we can say that we have completely withdrawn from this world war."

Hearing this, Wu Shaoting's face suddenly changed. He naturally expected that the Allied Congress was dissatisfied with the peace talks between China and Britain. It was precisely because of this that he deliberately asked Britain to submit a letter of surrender to China. This means that Britain admitted that the war with China had failed. China did not end the war, but completed a victorious war.

If you think about it carefully, if you negotiate peace with Tsarist Russia at this time, you will feel like you have not yet settled.

Even if Nicholas II was willing to submit a letter of surrender to China and even admitted that the occupied areas were returned to China's territory, the situation could no longer be as easy to accept as the Sino-British peace agreement.

But then again, the reason why Wu Shaoting wanted to negotiate peace with Britain was clearly to leave the world war and let the European Allied camp consume Germany's strength as much as possible. Now Germany has a lot of opinions on this matter, but in his eyes, China has fulfilled its responsibilities, and the country's foundation has long stopped allowing the war to continue. Why should we carry out the war to the end?

When he was arranging the Asian strategy, he had already made it clear to the German ambassador Xin Ci that all China could do was to restrain its enemies in Asia and distract Russia, Britain and France, but he never promised to fight to Europe.

"No matter what the Germans are, this is our China business. They have no right to interfere in our foreign strategy. There is no need for Tsarist Russia to continue fighting, not to mention that we have forced Tsarist Russia to withdraw its troops from Europe, and achieved its expected goals both politically and militaryally." After a moment of pause, Wu Shaoting said with a serious expression.

"First of the People's Republic of China, what you mean is to ignore the German side?" Lu Jianzhang asked.

"That's right, there is no need to look at their faces. Our war has ended, and China will not be able to send troops to Europe in the short term, that's it!" Wu Shaoting said decisively.

"Our foreign ministry also agrees with this point, but then again, even if the international and foreign ministry put interests first, in this regard, we still have some common interests with Germany, and it is not convenient to turn against each other immediately. Perhaps we should find a compromise on this matter." Lu Jianzhang hesitated for a moment, and then said carefully.

Wu Shaoting pondered for a moment. He didn't want to be respectful to Germany now, as if China was a German younger brother. What's more, the more China gave in to the outside world, the more it would be unable to show its identity as a big country. On the contrary, the more it would make Germany more aggressive. However, at this time, he still couldn't act too voluntarily. He asked, "If so, what are your plans?"
