People in the Republic of China start from building a top power

Chapter 900: Army Internal Meeting

Characters such as Dajiao and Lin Xian have received military education since they were young, and their minds are full of fighting and killing, and they are not proficient in dealing with human relationships.

But after Okada enlisted in the army and became a senior general, he began to delve into these things.

His talent is not bad, in terms of negotiation and intrigue, he can play around with a stupefied young man like Lin Mian.

After a little preparation, Okada left for the army to meet Lin Xian and the others.

At the same time, the army is also meeting.

After two entanglements in the imperial meeting, the matter did not make substantial progress, which made everyone in the army slightly anxious.

Saito's coming to power had made them suffer everywhere.

If the initiative is handed over to the navy again this time, their army will never have a good life, at least in terms of resources, they will definitely be suppressed.

At the conference table, Prince Xianyuan first reprimanded Lin Mian.

"Lin Xi, we almost fell into a passive position today, and you have to take full responsibility!

If you hadn't been able to distinguish between right and wrong, and had brought the Huayin Group into the empire, and let the guys in the navy get hold of it, we might have successfully elected Hirota-kun to the top! "

"Yes!"

Lin Miao lowered her head, not daring to speak much.

In this matter, he had nothing to refute.

But Xianyuan didn't hold him accountable too much.

During Lin Mill's cooperation with the Huayin Group, the pressure on the army's resources was indeed relieved, allowing the army to achieve rapid development for a period of time.

When he held Lin Mian accountable just now, the emphasis was also on being caught by the navy, rather than blaming him for covering up the Huayin Group and endangering the empire.

This shows that Prince Xianyuan doesn't care much about it.

Seeing Lin Xianmeiou's rebuttal, Prince Xianyuan said solemnly: "At this imperial meeting, the people in the navy showed their determination even more.

But we can't let them get away with it!

In the past few years when Saito has been in power, the allocation of resources for the army has been restricted everywhere. We must not let people from the navy come to power to suppress our army.

You need to come up with your own ways to try to convince His Majesty the Emperor at the next meeting~々! "

"Yes!"

Lin Xian and other senior army officers responded in unison.

They are very clear about the meaning of Prince Xianyuan.

His Majesty the Emperor took a high-spirited attitude towards this matter. What they had to do was not to persuade the Emperor, but to win the navy.

Just in the middle of the meeting, a servant suddenly came to report from outside the door: "Reporting to the prince, Your Excellencies, Generals, Admiral Okada of the Navy came to see you in person."

"Okada?"

Prince Xianyuan showed a look of surprise, and Lin Xian and the others couldn't help but look at the attendant.

They are confronting the navy, what is Okada doing at this time?

Moreover, he is the candidate appointed by the navy to form a cabinet. If he comes here at this time, isn't he afraid that the navy will misunderstand him?

On this point, Lin Xian and the others were a little blunt and failed to figure out the navy's intentions.

But Prince Xianyuan was different. He guessed right away that Okada came here at this time, not on behalf of himself, but because the navy had something to negotiate with them.

If nothing else, it should be about forming a cabinet.

After thinking about it, Prince Xianyuan frowned and said, "Go and tell him to wait, just say that we are in a meeting, and I will let people see him later!"

"Yes!"

The attendant withdrew and conveyed Prince Kanin's words to Okada.

Okada was not in a hurry and just waited at the reception desk.

In the conference hall, Lin Xian waited for the attendants to leave before he couldn't help but said: "We are competing with the navy, what are they asking Okada to do at this time?"

Prince Xianyuan said: "It should be about forming a cabinet. If I'm not wrong, the navy should want to show weakness to us.

They will come up with some benefits, let us give up the right to compete for cabinet candidates. "

"It's impossible!"

Lin Mian's voice rose a little.

If they give up competing for candidates to form a cabinet, they will be constrained by the navy again, and those resources are something they cannot give up.

But the prince of Xianyuan had long thought about it.

He knew that the people in the navy were not fools, and the fundamental reason why they competed with the navy for candidates to form a cabinet was to compete for the right to allocate resources.

This point, both he and Fushimi were very clear in their hearts.

So if the navy side really wants to show weakness this time, then the bargaining chips for the exchange must also be some resources.

As long as they give enough chips, he can still consider giving up the competition for cabinet candidates.

After all, in this regard, they have not gained any advantage so far.

If they fail, they get nothing.

But the conditions for accepting the Navy are different.

As long as the navy provides enough resources, they can obtain this part of resources without any effort, so what if they give up the competition for cabinet candidates?

In the final analysis, their army is equivalent to an empty-handed white wolf, so why not do such a stable profit without losing money?

Of course, the premise is that the bargaining chips given by the Navy are sufficient.

Otherwise, Prince Xianyuan will continue to compete with the other party even if he takes the risk of failure.

After weighing the pros and cons, Prince Xianyuan looked at Hirota.

As the person who formed the cabinet elected by the army this time, Hirota was also included in today's meeting.

Now Prince Xianyuan looked at him and signaled: "` ‖ Mr. Guangtian, the people from the navy came here this time, probably to exchange resources for us to give up the right to elect candidates for the cabinet.

The person they recommended has come here in person, and since that's the case, I'll leave this matter to you.

If they give enough chips, we will compete for real estate companies this time.

But don't worry, our army will give you certain benefits afterwards to compensate for the losses you suffered when you gave up your power.

As for the number of chips, I believe Hirota-kun, you should know it well. "

Hirota nodded slightly: "Don't worry, Your Excellency, I have the bottom of my heart."

"Very good, then go meet your competitors now, remember, if they don't give you enough chips, don't give in!"

Prince Xianyuan gave a command.

"I see."

After Hirota responded, he left the conference hall and went to see General Okada.

Prince Xianyuan got up and left, waiting for Hirota to give the meeting, and the meeting ended here.

In fact, Prince Xianyuan didn't want Hirota to negotiate, because after all, he was not a member of the army, and he might deliberately release water because of some of his power.

After all, if the army gives up the fight, Hirota will lose the chance to form a cabinet. .

But there is no way out.

There are very few people in the army who are proficient in negotiating, such as Lin Milling, who has excellent management and military capabilities, but is a rookie at the negotiating table.

If he was asked to negotiate with the other party, Lin Qian would be eaten to the bone by the other party.

In that case, the negotiation would be meaningless.

After Hirota left the conference hall, he went straight to the hall to meet General Okada, and went to his office with him.

After pushing away the people in the office, the two closed the door and started the negotiation.

Chapter 901: The Navy Gives Up Profits

"I didn't expect the Army to let you come over to negotiate with me."

In the office, Okada and Hirota sat opposite each other on both sides of the table. As soon as the negotiation started, Okada said such a sentence.

After all, Hirota is not a member of the army. This matter is related to the army's resource planning. Okada believes that with the wisdom of Prince Kanin, he should be able to guess.

So why did they let an outsider come forward to negotiate?

Hirota smiled lightly: "Because the army still trusts me."

He didn't say anything about the fact that the army is not good at negotiating, that would only embarrass the entire army and, by the way, himself.

After chatting for a while, the two got to the point.

Hirota spoke first, "Your Excellency Okada, this time you are here not to represent yourself, but to represent the navy. Did the navy ask you to come here to deliver some news?"

Okada shook his head slightly and said, "I can't say to pass the news, but I just want to come to negotiate with you?"

Said General Okada frowned slightly: "Can you represent the army?"

Hirota was noncommittal, just said: "Tell me about your negotiation terms."

Seeing that Hirota was so straightforward, Okada reconfirmed that the army should have already guessed the purpose of his visit this time, and the army trusted 407 Ren Hirota and let him decide everything.

Of course, after the negotiation results come out, no matter whether it is good or bad, he needs to report back to Prince Xianyuan and others, and it is impossible to make decisions by himself.

At this point, Okada stopped talking nonsense, since everyone is smart, there is no need to talk too much nonsense.

"Since Your Excellency Hirota said so, then I will be frank and honest.

For the past few days, our navy and your army have been vying for candidates to form a cabinet. The army chose you, and the navy chose me.

But both of us have been unable to make a decision for a long time, and the two imperial meetings were all pointless quarrels.

This is not conducive to the stability of the empire's government affairs, but also delays our respective futures. "

When it came up, Okada did not directly address the resource issue.

He didn't want to delay this negotiation for too long, but he couldn't tell the truth about his hole cards as soon as he came up, otherwise he would lose the bargaining chip for subsequent negotiations.

A gleam flashed in Hirota's eyes, and he said calmly: "Your Excellency Okada, there is no need to talk about this between us, right?

Although you and I are negotiating on behalf of the navy and the army, we all know that the quarrel between the two parties is ultimately about resources.

With all due respect, when Saito was in office, your navy took advantage of this internal relationship to allocate more resources, which caused the army's resources to be tight and its development slow.

This time we compete with the Navy for cabinet candidates, also to prevent you from continuing to fill your pockets. "

"Your Excellency, what you have said is too much!

Although there are conflicts between the navy and the army, they are all for the development of the empire, and such words as enriching one's own pockets should not come out of our mouths! "

General Okada was a little unhappy.

Hirota is a smart person, and he put the topic on the right track with one word.

But the way he spoke, Okada didn't like it very much.

This opening is to attribute the guilt to the navy again, and label the navy as partial.

And Hirota didn't care about it.

He has always been close to the army, and in this negotiation, he also represents the army, so he naturally wants to speak for the army.

As for the actions of the navy, he has long been a little uncomfortable.

These guys talk about the development of the empire all day long, but they always intrigue with the army behind their backs. Their essential purpose is not to develop themselves!

Hirota is not a member of the army, and he is not affected by the conflicts between the navy and the army, but it is precisely because of this that he is even more disgusted with the navy.

Just like what was said in the previous imperial meeting, the army is still expanding the territory for the empire.

Besides clearing the way and playing assists, what else did the navy do?

So Hirota was not polite: "Your Excellency Okada, I believe you didn't come here to quarrel.
