hum.
Although Yoshiichi Tanaka met Duan Xun for the first time today, the number of confrontations between the two behind the scenes was not once or twice.For a nationalist like Duan Xun, the People's Party under him also held high the banner of nationalism, and only then did he reach his current position.How could Yoshiichi Tanaka fully believe what such a person said.
But this kind of compliment from the two people made the atmosphere of the conversation very good.
"Prime Minister Tanaka, what I said is true. Your country's success has set an example for Asian countries. All young people who are interested in national independence go to your country to study. I think your country should take responsibility for Asian national independence. big flag."
"Prime Minister Duan, absolutely dare not be."
Tanaka shook his head again and again.
Said: "China is a big country, and our country dare not carry the great banner of Asian national independence. Your country has been the center of Asia since ancient times, and only your country can shoulder such a heavy responsibility."
Gun hit the bird.
How could Tanaka Yoshiichi not understand this kind of thing.
Recently, the relationship between China and the Netherlands has been constantly dirty. How can Yoshiichi Tanaka be fooled casually if he wants Japan to stand out.Yoshiichi Tanaka went from a general of the army to the prime minister of Japan. He is definitely a master who does not see rabbits or hawks.
Duan Xun saw Tanaka Yoshiichi like this, and immediately smiled and said: "Prime Minister Tanaka, there are currently only three independent countries in Asia. Our country, your country, and Siam. Siam is a small country that can keep itself from being colonized by the West. , is already very powerful. From this point of view, the independence of the Asian nations should be carried out by our two countries. Take a look, Prime Minister Tanaka, our country is a country with a large population, and our country can form a large number of troops. Your country is a sea A powerful country can build the most advanced warships in the world. You and our two countries should shoulder the responsibility for the independence of Asian nations. Especially the Nanyang region.”
As Duan Xun said, he seemed to draw a half circle on the map casually.
But Yoshihiro Tanaka's eyes lit up.
Because Tanaka Yoshiichi has already seen what Duan Xun painted.The line drawn by Duan Xun directly divides Southeast Asia in half.Inside the half circle are French Indochina (Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia), and countries such as Myanmar and Thailand.Outside the half circle are countries including the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia.
Tanaka Yoshiichi smiled slightly.
I looked at Australia below, then at the islands in the Pacific Ocean, and finally said slowly: "Well, we should shoulder the responsibility, and we really shouldn't shirk it. Asian nations are looking at our two countries."
Duan Xun was overjoyed.Japan must go south. Only when Japan goes south can the Anglo-American law be restrained, so that Duan Xun can have no worries and think about things in the north.
"Prime Minister Tanaka, you may have heard of it. The Dutch government is too deceitful. It not only came to us to colonize Asia, but also deprived me of the property of Chinese and overseas Chinese for no reason. As early as after the end of the last European war, the Dutch government did this. Things. Now they are doing this again, it is really deceiving."
Duan Xun began to get into specific things.
Tanaka Yoshiichi listened quietly.Duan Xun continued: "Our country is going to seek justice from the Netherlands, as well as the peoples of the East Indies oppressed by the Netherlands. Your country is a model in the hearts of all Asian nations. I hope that your country can intervene in coordination and help the East Indies The Chinese and overseas Chinese who make a living in the archipelago also help the peoples of the East Indies. Let the Dutch know that the Asian peoples cannot be humiliated. We cannot allow the Netherlands to plunder the East Indies’ oil, natural rubber, tin ore, and sugar.”
Both Duan Xun and Tanaka Yoshiichi were soldiers, and they both fought in wars.So talking between two people is different from a politician who is a complete politician.Because everyone thinks differently.
Politicians think politically.
But the conversation between Duan Xun and Tanaka Yoshiichi immediately talked about war and exchanged ideas about war.Because the first step was a pleasant conversation, and after the two parties had a preliminary cooperation intention, the next conversation began to discuss specific issues.Because it was a private conversation, neither of them hid it, and the conversation involved a lot of sensitive content.Because this kind of private conversation is to exchange the opinions of both parties, and to test the bottom line of both parties.So there is no need to be as careful as formal negotiations.Anyway, after walking out of this door, if something happens, the two of them can completely deny some of their private promises.
Much of the so-called secret diplomacy was born in this way.Duan Xun and Tanaka Yoshiichi boldly judged the world situation and talked about war issues boldly.
So the two of them were very happy and said everything that they usually dare not say.
The two people's thoughts gradually converged.
That is an Asian matter, and European and American countries must not be allowed to interfere.Asian affairs can only be resolved by Asians themselves.Judging from the current situation in Asia, the affairs in Asia should be resolved by China and Japan.Duan Xun and Tanaka Yoshiichi are very calm, and they regard China and Japan as the leading countries in Asia, and they don't think there is anything wrong with this.Inadvertently, the two began to divide Asia and determine the spheres of influence of both sides.Therefore, what the two people were talking about was actually how to expel European and American countries from Asia.
Although it is said that the two people have different ideas about expulsing the influence of European and American countries in Asia.What Duan Xun wants is to integrate Asia into a cooperative body, with China as the leader of the Asian cooperative body.Take Asian countries and compete with the United States, Europe, and the Soviet Union.What Duan Xun wants to create is China's Asia.What Tanaka Yoshiichi wants is different. What Tanaka Yoshiichi wants is to expand Japan's territory.I hope to swallow some countries in Southeast Asia as Japan's territory.
But no matter what the goals of the two people are different, but for now, the direction is the same.That is to expel the British, French, American and Dutch countries that are entrenched in Southeast Asia.
But it is so easy to expel European and American countries.Southeast Asia has always been the traditional sphere of influence of these countries, how could they leave.Because both of them were soldiers, they were both army generals who became politicians.Therefore, when two people considered expelling European and American countries from Asia, the first thing they thought of was war.It has nothing to do with European and American countries, and the only way to expel them is to take military action.So the two began to talk about how to occupy strategic points and how to win the war if there was a war.
Both are bold.
They are all from military background, and many problems can be understood at a glance, and there is no need to be ambiguous.Just like on land, if you want to prevent European and American countries from returning to Southeast Asia from land, and solve the problems of French Indochina and Burma, you must solve the British army in Burma.Control Burma and prevent the British army in India, including the Indian army trained by the British, from breaking into Burma.
As long as Myanmar is under control, it will completely cut off the possibility of European and American countries counterattacking Southeast Asia from land.So Myanmar is the most important place on land.
As long as Myanmar is under control, not only can Southeast Asia be stabilized.And it can also attack India from Burma.
On land, as long as the Myanmar issue is resolved, many problems can be resolved.Then at sea, it is not so easy, and there are many things that need to be solved.Although Duan Xun and Tanaka Yoshiichi are both from the army, they can see the strategic location at sea at a glance.
Judging from the situation at sea, one of the strategic points at sea is Hawaii in the Pacific Ocean, and Pearl Harbor on Hawaii.Because this place is really a strategic point, more important than any other place.He is about [-] kilometers away from the United States, Japan, the American colony of the Philippines, and the southernmost point of Australia.Almost all planes flying across the Pacific Ocean will stop in Hawaii.Including many ships, when they cross the Pacific Ocean, they also stop in Hawaii.
Hawaii is the center of the Pacific Ocean, a transit point in the Pacific Ocean, and a real strategic location in the military.Pearl Harbor is currently an important naval base for the United States.Whoever controls Pearl Harbor and Hawaii has the advantage in the Pacific Ocean.
And Australia.
This is also an important springboard for the navies of European and American countries.With Australia, the navies of European and American countries can regroup and continue to threaten Nanyang.
Similarly, if there is no Australia, even if European and American countries control Hawaii, it will be difficult to launch a large-scale war.The importance of Australia is no less than that of Hawaii.
The last one is Singapore.
At present, Singapore is the seat of the British Far East Fleet and the most important place in the Strait of Malacca.Controlling Singapore means controlling the Straits of Malacca.It can effectively restrict European navies from coming to Southeast Asia.
Two of them are soldiers.
So during the conversation, several strategic points were easily pointed out.Burma, Hawaii, Australia, Singapore, as long as China and Japan control these strategic locations, the situation in Southeast Asia will be completely controlled by China and Japan.It is even more difficult for European and American countries to counterattack.
We had a great time talking.
The two even met each other a little too late, because many of the two people's ideas are very close.Even regarding the judgment of the world situation, the two people have many similarities.Including the situation in Europe, both of them judged that Europe would be in chaos.
Duan Xun is a bit pity.
Yoshiichi Tanaka has a unique vision, a broad vision, and a good strategic direction.This person knows how to assess the situation, advances and retreats, and is not blind. He is a rare strategist.It's a pity that Yoshihiro Tanaka lived in Japan all his life.
Japan is inherently deficient in many aspects and cannot match the ambitions of Tanaka Yoshiichi and many high-level Japanese.The rise of Japan after the Meiji Restoration made them very ambitious.It is a pity that the timing of their ambitions is not right, it just caught up with the era of rising nationalism in the world.If it was placed hundreds of years ago, they would definitely be able to succeed, and perhaps really turn Japan into a big country like China.It's a pity that the time is wrong, so their ambition will lead Japan to the abyss step by step.No matter how powerful and hard-working Tanaka Yoshiichi is, as long as he starts to launch a war of aggression against the outside world, Japan will not be able to achieve the results they want.
The two talked about many problems in the future, but in the end they returned to the problems in front of them.
The first thing to solve is the Dutch problem.
Duan Xun invited Japan to participate in the mediation, but it was not a real mediation, but waiting for the Netherlands to refuse.As long as the Netherlands refused and began to confiscate the land of Chinese and overseas Chinese, China and Japan used this as an excuse to send troops to Indonesia.
Duan Xun and Tanaka Yoshiichi reached an agreement on these aspects.
The meeting between the heads of state of China and Japan actually attracted the attention of many countries.Because China and Japan are two big countries in the Far East, the meeting of the heads of state of these two big countries will definitely affect the situation in the Far East.Moreover, the relationship between China and Japan has been good in recent years, and there have been many cooperations.But this time, the meeting between Duan Xun and Tanaka Yoshihiro was several levels higher than the previous high-level meetings between China and Japan.
On April 1935, 4, Tanaka Yoshiichi arrived in China. Duan Xun brought Dai Kan and Yan Huiqing to welcome Tanaka Yoshiichi, and held a banquet for Tanaka Yoshiichi in the evening.
The next day, April 1935, 4, Duan Xun and Tanaka Yoshiichi met alone, which was a private meeting.Originally, the meeting time between the two was set at one and a half hours.But the two of them talked very happily, so the time has been extended, and they talked for more than three hours.The two exchanged a lot of ideas with each other and confirmed their cooperation intentions in many aspects.
On April 1935, 4, President Lin Sen of the Republic of China hosted Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiichi Tanaka at the Presidential Palace.On the same day, Japanese Foreign Minister Koki Hirota, who visited China with Yoshiichi Tanaka, officially started negotiations with Chinese Foreign Minister Yan Shichao.
1935年4月6日,经发委副主任梁焕奎陪同田中义一,一起去北京的一些工厂看看。1935年4月7日,戴勘陪同田中义一去看看北京大学和清华大学。之后田中义一就和戴勘商讨双方教育、技术各方面合作的事情。
Including the exchange of international students and liaison between universities.As well as joint establishment of some laboratories between Chinese and Japanese universities and Chinese and Japanese factories, joint development of some products, and so on.
But this is only a preliminary proposal.
