Beiyang reactionaries

The few people who participated were political leaders who decided China's policy.The decisions made at this meeting will affect the development of the whole of China.Duan Xun is a "semi-dictator", but it is impossible to suddenly issue orders and change national policies.This will leave the entire political arena scratching their heads.

Therefore, many things and many policies must be communicated in advance to reach a unified consensus in advance.Including Duan Xun's thoughts, it is necessary to let the people below know in advance, and let them understand in advance, so that it can proceed smoothly.

Soon it will be World War II.

Duan Xun must communicate with his subordinates in advance, and everyone will reach an agreement in order to gain the most benefits in the future World War II.

"After the completion of the second five-year plan, we must formulate the third five-year plan. In the third five-year plan, not only the economic plan, but also the diplomatic plan. In the In the third five-year plan, I want to abolish three treaties diplomatically."

When Duan Xun said this, several people knew what Duan Xun meant.

China has been bullied since the Opium War, and it has been more than 70 years now.During these years, China was forced to sign a lot of unequal treaties.According to statistics later, China was forced to sign more than 1000 unequal treaties, large and small, in the late Qing Dynasty.Of course, this is the result of including some messy treaties and subdividing some treaties.

For example, the "Nanjing Treaty" was not signed once.There are many supplementary terms and the like, and several of them have been signed.There is also the "Beijing Treaty", a "Beijing Treaty" is actually composed of many treaties.Such as "Sino-Russian Beijing Treaty", "Sino-French Beijing Treaty", "Sino-Japanese Beijing Treaty", "Sino-Portuguese Beijing Treaty" and so on.

A lot anyway.

In fact, in the past decade or so, China has abolished a large number of unequal treaties.The withdrawal of customs, the abolition of consular jurisdiction, the abolition of the right to navigate inland seas, the abolition of concessions, the abolition of compensation, etc., all involve a large number of unequal treaties.

But even so, there are still a lot of unequal treaties left over from history.Now Duan Xun means to abolish some unequal treaties.

But it's not that easy.

Why are there still many unequal treaties left?It is because the remaining unequal treaties are not easy to deal with, so they are left behind.Wanting to abolish those unequal treaties will touch many interests of others, so it has not been resolved.Now Duan Xun has to solve some remaining problems in the third five-year plan, which is of course very important for China.

It is even possible to detonate conflicts and detonate wars.

"The first one is the 'Sino-Portuguese Beijing Treaty', that is, the 'Sino-Portuguese Treaty of Reconciliation and Commerce'. This treaty was supposed to be abolished in 1928, and it has continued until now. It must not be tolerated."

This is the easiest.

Macau problem.The "Sino-Portuguese Beijing Treaty" signed by the Qing Dynasty leased Macau to Portugal for 40 years. The 40-year period expires, which happens to be 1928.

At that time, Duan Xun endured for the sake of the overall situation.

The main reason is to import a large amount of machinery and equipment from European and American countries during the Great Depression, so I don't want to make a big deal out of it.Although Portugal is a small country, it is a white country and a European country after all.Duan Xun didn't want Europe and the United States to see China's aggressive appearance, so he handled it in a low-key manner.

But this cannot be delayed.

Duan Xun wants to take back Macau.China's diplomatic dominance started with attacking Portugal, a small European country.

"The second is the 'Sino-British Nanjing Treaty'. The Hong Kong issue has dragged on for too long, and the 'Nanjing Treaty' is the beginning of our country's modern unequal treaty. Abolishing this treaty is of great significance."

This is the treaty Duan Xun most wants to abolish.

Not because of how important Hong Kong is.In fact, Hong Kong in this era is of little importance. It is a small place, with a small population and a poor economy, and it does not have much strategic role.

But this is the beginning of China's modern history of shame.

The abolition of the "Nanjing Treaty" is of great significance.

"The third is the 'Sino-French New Treaty'. If this treaty is abolished, we can justifiably intervene in what happens in the Annan area (Vietnam) in the future."

The "Sino-French New Testament" is a treaty signed after the Sino-French War.

It was this treaty that allowed France to extend its hand into the southwest of China, especially the Yunnan region.So far, France has a great influence in the Southwest.Including the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway, which connects Yunnan and Vietnam, is still in the hands of the French.Moreover, it has justifiably controlled Vietnam and snatched Vietnam's suzerainty from China.

"What do you think? I want to abolish these three treaties. Can it be done?"

three treaties.

Involved in the United Kingdom, France, Portugal.Here Portugal is playing soy sauce, not to mention China today, even China ten years ago did not take Portugal seriously.

Portugal sucks.

There is no need for the Chinese government to take action, nor does it need the Southeast Military Region to take action.As long as a regiment of troops is dispatched, Portugal will die in Macau.Even if China takes Macau, Portugal will not fart.

But Britain and France are different.

Even though the strength of Britain and France declined after the First World War, the two countries are still the hegemons of the world.Relying on the current world colonial system, the two countries still have very strong strength.

It is not easy to abolish the contract signed with them.

"It's entirely possible."

Dai Kan spoke.

He said: "Prime Minister, in fact, if we forcefully abolish these treaties, the countries of Britain, France and Portugal have nothing to do. In the one-third of an acre of land in the Far East, the three countries of Britain, France and Portugal have long since lost the prestige of the past, and we have long since been in the late Qing Dynasty. China at that time. It’s just that we should not fall out with Britain and France in our current construction. Britain and France are still world leaders after all, and it is not good for us to fall out with them completely. But even if it is not head-to-head, we still have a chance. On Hitler. As long as Hitler can break through the "Treaty of Versailles" in a few years and the strength of the army increases, Britain and France will no longer have the qualifications to speak loudly in the Far East. At that time, Britain and France in the Far East will depend on our faces.”

Duan Xun smiled slightly.

All were smart people who saw an opportunity.When Dai Kan heard Duan Xun's words, he immediately thought of Hitler.The appearance of Hitler is simply great for China.

Incredibly good.

It can even be said that the appearance of Hitler is simply the gospel of China.

"From this point of view, Prime Minister, I am in favor of publishing real data after the completion of the second five-year plan next year."

As Duan Xun and China judged, when the data of the Soviet Union's first five-year plan came out, many newspapers in Europe and the United States were full of doubts instead of admiration.It is impossible to think that the data released by the Soviet Union are exaggerated, and they are fake data released by the Soviet government.

Therefore, many journalists from European and American countries asked to interview Soviet factories, wanting to see the situation of Soviet factories with their own eyes.

Anyway, it was very lively.

But the excitement is the excitement. Many countries simply paid attention to it, but did not take any action.Because everyone really doesn't have time to pay attention to the affairs of the Soviet Union.

Britain is a crap stick.

When other countries were still rejecting and besieging the Soviet Union, Britain seemed to be a fraction of these anti-Soviet countries, but Britain had actually begun to quietly contact the Soviet Union.Even as early as ten years ago, the United Kingdom expressed to the Soviet Union that as long as the Soviet Union recognized the original debts of Tsarist Russia and returned the assets of various countries in the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom was willing to restore normal relations with the Soviet Union.

When the Soviet Union refused, Britain did not become angry and wanted to be at odds with the Soviet Union.On the contrary, Britain soon began to hook up with the Soviet Union again.When the Soviet Union began to build, Britain was the most active in doing business with the Soviet Union.

to what extent.

When the Soviet Union began to carry out the First Five-Year Plan, the imported machinery and equipment were basically imported from the United Kingdom.At that time, more than 90% of the machinery and equipment exported by Britain were imported from the Soviet Union.In fact, the machinery and equipment exported by Britain at that time were all built for the Soviet Union.It can be said that Britain intends to support the Soviet Union, just as it intends to support Germany.

After the First World War, Britain was afraid that France would dominate the European continent and become the hegemon of the European continent.Therefore, both Germany and the Soviet Union are supported, allowing them to fight against France.It's just that Britain, as a veteran imperialist, plays very well with balance.It will not give people a handle at all, and it will justifiably support Germany and the Soviet Union.Therefore, Britain is very cautious and apprehensive about the rise of the Soviet Union, but it also observes quietly and will not interfere too much.

France did not like the rise of the Soviet Union.

How could France, as an old opponent, not be clear about the idea of ​​Britain's shit-stirring stick.Therefore, France is very active in suppressing the Soviet Union and Germany.But now France really has no time to take care of it.After the U.S. economic crisis, the French government responded in a truly Buddhist way, regardless of the world economic crisis.

Do what you like.

Both Britain and France are countries with vast colonies, so the impact of the economic crisis was not too severe at the beginning.Britain responded relatively quickly, and immediately gathered its colonies and countries in its original sphere of influence to cooperate in the name of the Commonwealth to deal with the economic crisis.The effect is very good.

The domestic crisis was passed on to those colonies, making the colony's economy a mess.Just like in Southeast Asia, the economy is a piece of cake.However, after the crisis was passed on, the British economy was not affected much.
