Beiyang reactionaries

This is the diplomacy of the strong.

When they want to incorporate a place into their own country, they will say that this place was their own land in history.But when they want to split a place, they say they must respect the interests and voices of the local people.

To put it bluntly, it is the strong who make the rules.And also has the power to change the rules at will.

"So your country claims the sovereignty of the central and northern regions of Vietnam, and we think we should support it. But Vietnam is under the control of France after all, and Vietnam still has their royal family. So I think we can support it, but the French and Vietnamese royal families side……"

"Prime Minister Tojo, if your country cannot solve the problem of the French and Vietnamese royal families, why should we negotiate with you on this issue?"

Duan Xun returned to Tojo Hideki.

The reason why Japan is allowed to stand out is that China does not want to be the first bird.And now Vietnam has the final say in Japan, and of course Japan will solve this kind of matter.Moreover, in the negotiation between China and Japan, Duan Xun didn't really want to negotiate a result.

Duan Xun had secret talks with Japan, one was to increase pressure on the United States, and the other was to gain benefits from Japan.In any case, Duan Xun of Taiwan will never be ceded to Japan.

"Chairman Duan, don't worry. What I mean is, we will organize a negotiation with representatives of the four parties to solve this problem. At that time, our country will definitely support your country's proposition."

Duan Xun didn't speak.

Quietly looked at Hideki Tojo.

Because Duan Xun now fully understands that Tojo Hideki has the most complete plan for this negotiation and has made the most adequate preparations.Now that I have fallen into a disadvantage, it is best to quietly listen to Hideki Tojo's plan.

Seeing Duan Xun just nodded slightly, Tojo Hideki was very happy.

Japan is really very worried that it will turn against China directly, and in the end the two sides will fight each other.Especially now that Japan is at war with Britain and the United States, Japan dare not fight China.Not to mention China's strong military strength, the logistics needed for Japan's current war still need China's support.Once there are some problems with China, it will directly affect Japan's frontline operations.Therefore, the biggest purpose of Hideki Tojo's participation in the Asian Joint Conference this time is to stabilize China and prevent China and Japan from turning their faces.

Although it is said that the relationship between countries is determined by interests, friendship will take a back seat before interests.But when countries turn against each other, it doesn't mean that they turn against each other when they turn against each other.Even if the two sides turn their faces, they need enough excuses, and they can't turn their faces just because they want to.If countries really turn their faces casually, then your government will lose the trust of others.

And Hideki Tojo came here this time to solve some problems between China and Japan.

"As for the South Sakhalin Island and the South Kuril Islands that your country talked about, we have also discussed it. Chairman Duan, your country should know that for the South Sakhalin Island and the South Kuril Islands, our country has worked hard for many years and sacrificed It is very big. Therefore, the domestic opposition is also very loud.”

"understand."

After Duan Xun knew that Hideki Tojo was fully prepared, he was not going to talk much.

Instead, he quietly listened to what Hideki Tojo said.Hideki Tojo continued: "However, we have discussed for a long time and believe that our country, as a responsible big country, should take a clear-cut stand against colonization. Even if there have been some things in history, we should actively correct them. Therefore, our country is willing to put Nanku Page Island and the South Thousand Islands are returned to your country."

Duan Xun frowned.

When Time Xun made such a proposal to Japan, it was concluded that Japan would not agree to this condition.Because once the South Sakhalin Island and the South Kuril Islands are given up, the northern part of Japan will be directly strangled by China.Hokkaido is completely under the radiation of China, and the whole of Japan will have to look at China's face at that time.

But what does Hideki Tojo want to do?

Duan Xun needed time to think about it, so he said, "I don't know how to return it?"

"Chairman Duan, it is not easy for us to make such a concession. However, the military has always been very worried. If your country deploys troops in South Sakhalin and the South Kuril Islands, especially the construction of naval bases, then for our country It is a very unfavorable thing to say. Moreover, our country has operated in South Sakhalin Island and the South Thousand Islands for many years, and has many interests in it. It is impossible to withdraw completely at once. Therefore, our country hopes to give us time to deal with South Sakhalin Island and the South Kuril Islands. Some finishing work on the South Kuril Islands. Then return this part of the land to your country in two batches. After two years, the South Sakhalin Islands will be handed over to your country, and after five years, the South Kuril Islands will be returned to your country. At the same time, Your country must promise not to build military bases in South Sakhalin and the South Kuril Islands."

Duan Xun was caught off guard by Hideki Tojo.

However, Duan Xun has been in the political arena these years and has firmly controlled the power in his hands for 20 years. It is not a fluke.Although he was not well prepared for the negotiation this time, he was led by the nose by Hideki Tojo.

But during this process, Duan Xun has been thinking about what Tojo's purpose is.

After hearing Tojo Hideki's words, Duan Xun slowly figured out something.Hideki Tojo's proposal this time, whether it is to solve the problem of the Korean Peninsula or the territorial dispute between China and Japan, has actually adopted a procrastination strategy.

two years?three years?five years?

What is the purpose of this dragging tactic?

Duan Xun understood after thinking about it.Japan believes that it can resolve the current war within two or three years.

"Chairman Duan, what do you think of our proposal?"

"Prime Minister Tojo, we have been negotiating. You should bring up this kind of proposal earlier so that we can discuss it. Now that it is suddenly raised, I need to go back and think about it."

"Chairman Duan, do you think there is a problem with our proposal as a whole? If there is a problem, I can modify it directly. If there is no problem as a whole, then I think we can proceed to the next negotiation on this basis .”

Hideki Tojo is somewhat "aggressive".

He used a new plan this time, and it can even be said that the new plan he proposed was very bold.Hideki Tojo is willing to hand over such important places as South Sakhalin Island and the South Kuril Islands to China. This kind of courage is not possessed by ordinary people.

Hideki Tojo thinks he has enough "sincerity".Of course, Hideki Tojo's raid on Duan Xun was to prevent Duan Xun from turning against Japan with territorial disputes.So he directly asked Duan Xun to make a statement.

Duan Xun looked at Hideki Tojo, and Hideki Tojo, not to be outdone, stared straight at Duan Xun.This time the heads of state of the three countries met, not only the heads of state of the three countries, but also a large number of staff from various countries.

Hideki Tojo told Duan Xun that he had done his best.Duan Xun, as the head of state of China, should make a statement.

Duan Xun blamed himself very much.

But knowing the current situation, I must have an attitude.So Duan Xun said slowly: "Prime Minister Tojo's proposal is generally fine. However, I think there are some problems in terms of time. Two years and five years are too long."

"Time is negotiable."

Hearing Duan Xun's reply, Hideki Tojo smiled slightly.

He came here this time to continue to maintain the negotiation between the two parties, in fact, to stabilize Duan Xun through negotiation.As long as Duan Xun agrees with Japan's plan in the general direction, the negotiations between China and Japan can continue.As long as negotiations continue, there is no reason for China to clash with Japan.In this way, his purpose of coming to Nanjing this time has been achieved.

"it is good."

"Director Chen (Chen Guangfu), has there been any change in the foreign exchange used for settlement in Japan?"

After talking with Hideki Tojo, Duan Xun immediately reviewed himself.

This time it was really careless.

Before the meeting, Hideki Tojo was well prepared, and Duan Xun was powerless to fight.So after returning, Duan Xun talked about this matter with other people, so that everyone can cheer up and don't underestimate any opponent.And in any case, since Japan has already proposed its own plan, Duan Xun can only ask Wei Chen to organize a negotiating team to continue negotiations with Japan on the basis of the plan proposed by Japan.

But Duan Xun still felt aggrieved.

This time it really failed.According to the current situation, Japan is really able to advance and retreat freely.To say that they are anti-colonial is to be anti-colonial. For this reason, Japan is willing to establish a provisional government in the southern part of the Korean peninsula.Regardless of who has the power of this government, it has fulfilled its promise anyway.This also blocked the excuse of the Republic of Korea.Let the Republic of Korea have no reason to go to war with Japan.

There are also talks on Taiwan.

If Japan really followed their proposal to solve the sovereignty issue of central and northern Vietnam for China, and handed over South Sakhalin Island and the South Kuril Islands to China, would it really want to cede Taiwan?

This is something Duan Xun cannot accept.

So after the review, Duan Xun immediately met Chen Guangfu, the director of the material committee.The Asian Joint Conference will contain a large number of trade agreements, including military cooperation agreements.There will be a large number of military cooperation agreements involving arms trade.

Therefore, many leaders of the materials committee also came to the meeting site.

"We are currently negotiating a lot of business with the Japanese government. Most of the settlement institutions are the Bank of Japan. They currently settle foreign exchange, mainly gold and silver. Their gold is refined gold bars. As for silver, it is also in the form of silver ingots. There is no difference."

"It's all gold bars and silver ingots?"
