Xu Huaijin said three people laughed heartily.
Zhang Yi laughed. "Okay, Shaochuan, it’s up to you this time. Remember to make concessions. Don’t they let us withdraw? Let’s withdraw; Didn’t they ask us to release the prisoners? Let’s release; But there is one thing that cannot be changed in the Straits of Malacca. This is the bottom line. The Straits of Malacca are too important for the whole of Asia, especially East Asia and Southeast Asia. "
Tang Shaoyi nodded and promised, "I will be ready for everything."
Zhang Yi went on to say, "We promised the British that we would sell our conventional weapons, rifles, heavy machine guns, light machine guns, grenades and mortar guns to the British when they vomited blood. We will sell as many as they want! The price can’t be lower. Hey, compared with 20,000 to 30,000 prisoners, we can get back pounds. This is the real big head. We must let Britain bleed once! "
"hmm!"
Tang Shaoyi nodded. "Not only that, I suggest that we can also sell our grain and industry, whether it is oil or coal or steel, which are indispensable for Britain to upgrade its military strength!"
Zhang Yi laughed. "Great minds think alike!"
Xu Huaijin disdained, "Well, don’t flatter each other. These are secondary important matters. What should we do with our sophisticated weapons? We must know that these sophisticated weapons are what the British need most, and other countries can’t give them unique advantages. The former has just signed a huge contract with the German Empire. If we can reach an agreement with the British Empire, I will get a generous fortune! Moreover, the strength of the two camps will tend to be even. In this case, the Allies and Allies will not extend until the war continues. This will be a dead end until the blood of the European powers is exhausted. We just want to suck out the wealth that the European powers have seized from all over the world for a hundred years until they are sucked into dregs! "
Zhang Yi laughed. "Look, look, the most treacherous thing is not me. Look at Huai Jin. This is the most insidious thing!"
Xu Huaijin replied, "Isn’t this all about learning from you? What a loyal person I used to be. You have led me astray … "
Tang Shaoyi said with a smile, "In this case, I have already understood the members of the negotiating team, and I have already arranged them, just waiting for us to officially start negotiations in three days."
Zhang Yi nodded and asked, "What about Russia? What is the situation now? "
Tang Shaoyi replied, "Now Nicholas II has bowed his head, and the foreign minister of Russia has expressed to the evil ministers of our country that we can put the captive department back and give up the war reparations. They are willing to give up the Sakhalin owner and we will sign a peace treaty."
Zhang Yi said with a smile, "If you reply, they will say that the prisoners can be put back on condition, but the war reparations must be paid to us absolutely. Otherwise, we don’t mind Siberia doing a vigorous campaign to order the third and fourth cavalry divisions to move northeast into northern Mongolia. We must put enough pressure on Russia!"
Tang Shaoyi nodded and replied, "Well, it is impossible for them to put pressure on joint negotiations if they fight one and pull another!"
Obviously, it has brought so many benefits to the British empire. Naturally, the British can’t push their noses and faces to continue to help Russia speak. Otherwise, don’t say that Sevan can’t cross Beijing. Even if he returns to China, he will have to clean up his game-writing protocol. Sevan has definitely considered these factors thoroughly.
Zhang Yi got up from his seat and said, "Well, it’s already deep. You should also go back to rest early. There are still three days left to prepare."
Xu Huaijin smiled with malicious intent. "Instructor, you won’t be in a hurry to meet your lover again. This time, you must …"
Zhang yi gave Xu Huaijin a hard stare, and the threat meant nothing! Be careful not to expose the truth!
Chapter one thousand five hundred and seven Negotiation one
The negotiation proceeded as scheduled after three days.
Although Sevan was fully prepared and promised by the game-writing protocol, he still had no confidence in his heart. After all, the national interest far outweighed all personal interests of the so-called friendship.
Sai Sevan, the negotiator, took the lead in throwing out the issue of prisoners, asking the Republic of China to release the prisoners of war as soon as possible. This issue is also the most difficult problem facing Sevan Pavilion. Now, the Republic of China is holding Indian prisoners of war and has captured more than 30,000 prisoners of war. Among them, there are more than 10,000 British soldiers, more than 3,000 French soldiers, and the rest are mercenaries from various countries. No one cares about their lives. You can be blamed for not doing anything, but more than 10,000 British and French armies have to solve the problem.
At present, the consciousness of European powers has awakened, and it is extremely important for life. These prisoners have been widely concerned by all walks of life, and Sevan Pavilion is under great pressure. If it cannot be properly solved, it will seriously undermine the prestige of the new pavilion.
It is Sevan who is forced to throw this topic out.
Tang Shaoyi smell speech laughed "prisoners of war? Hehe, this problem is not difficult. China’s world powers will naturally ensure the personal safety of prisoners of war and their diet is sufficient. The wounded have also been temporarily treated. It is the captive Chinese revolutionary army that has restricted their freedom of movement. Putting them back can not only lay the foundation for future friendship between China and Britain, but also save our food. Why not? "
Sevan heard that he was overjoyed to solve the problem of prisoners of war, so he could make a job even if he returned to China now. Finally, the big stone in his heart fell to the ground.
Sevan asked, "Mr. Prime Minister, I don’t know if there are any conditions in your country that the British Empire can bear. We can all negotiate."
Tang Shaoyi laughed "conditions? This is not necessary. We mean that you can take the British prisoners of war back to China if you can bear all the expenses of our country … "
Sevan, a British prisoner of war? Not all prisoners of war?
Sevan wondered, "Just British prisoners of war? What about the mercenary prisoners of war in France? I hope that this action can solve all the problems of prisoners of war together. "
Before Sevan came to China, he had been entrusted by Lube, hoping to solve the problem of French prisoners of war together with Sevan’s friendship with China.
Tang Shaoyi’s face sank slightly and replied, "Mr. Sevan, it is impossible for your country to capture French prisoners. They are mercenaries from all over the world. The nature of prisoners of war is different. We need to treat this issue differently. Please forgive me for not agreeing!"
Sevan quickly said, "Mr. Prime Minister, please forgive me for offending. Almost all the mercenaries were hired by our French government. Although they failed, we have the righteousness to bring them back safely to the French prisoners of war. We hope that I can solve the problem on my behalf. I have already said that you are not too demanding, and the French government will also agree to come."
Tang Shaoyi hesitated briefly and said, "In that case, the British soldiers and mercenaries add up to more than 20,000 people. How about we need each prisoner in your country to pay 100 pounds? Do you think there is a problem? "
Sevan quickly said, "No problem!"
Two million pounds is not a problem for the British Empire, and it’s only a money condition without other conditions. If it can solve the problem before, it’s not a problem.
Tang Shaoyi went on to say, "I’m sorry for being captured by the French, but I can’t solve this problem. It may involve more problems, and I need our president to negotiate further."
Sevan was stupefied. Did the French prisoners still involve him?
The sudden withdrawal of troops by the French in the middle of this war made the British government quite embarrassed and annoyed, which was equivalent to giving its allies a loud slap in the back. Of course, it should be said that the French government of the Republic of China did not find it too difficult for them.
Sevan sighed and said, "It’s just that since this topic involves too many problems, can I put aside the topic we can discuss for the time being?"
Tang Shaoyi nodded and said, "OK, but I suggest that you invite Mr. Lao Denuo, the French minister, to visit a president together. I think he still has something you are interested in."
Sevan nodded thoughtfully with a bright eye and then said, "The next topic is the withdrawal of troops from your country. I don’t know when your country can withdraw troops from the Indian border. This is a very important issue for our government cabinet."
Tang Shaoyi didn’t say anything and turned his eyes to the military representative Zhang Xiaohuai, who was far away from Tibet. It was Tang Shaoyi who named the president of the Army University, Jiang Baili, and the chief representative of the military to participate in the negotiations.
Jiang Baili replied, "Mr. Sevan, we can withdraw our troops at any time, but it’s really a courtesy for India’s China neighbors to raise troops this time. If it’s according to our military, it’s going to hit New Delhi directly, but the Prime Minister of the President hopes to solve this matter peacefully by withdrawing two army divisions to the Indian border, but on one condition!"
Sevan quickly asked, "This general, please speak!"
Jiang Baili said, "In order to ensure the homeland security of the Republic of China, we will establish a security belt along the Sino-Indian border, which starts from the northern part of Nepal’s South Bay of Bengal and is 150 kilometers wide from east to west to establish a new country. Of course, if this country is formed, the Republic of China will not interfere. What we want to ensure is that this country is absolutely neutral and will never be involved in formal wars!"
"Do you mean to establish a permanent neutral country to ensure the security of your southwest border?" asked Sai Wan.
Jiang Baili sink a way "yes, that’s what it means!"
Sevan is a little difficult, which means that this new country may be out of British control. The territory from Nepal to the Bay of Bengal is not small, at least 100 thousand square kilometers!
Jiang Baili went on to say, "Mr. Prime Minister, it is not difficult for you. Even if a new country is established, it is still controlled by your country. But this land can’t have an army. The country can’t attack the territory. Can we jointly ensure that the economic interests of the people of our country and China are still your country?"
Chapter one thousand five hundred two
Sevan said with a wry smile, "Well, I will ask our king for instructions on this question, and members of our cabinet will negotiate and give you an answer later."
Tang Shaoyi laughed. "Actually, it’s not complicated. Can your country control this new country according to the Australian way and bring it into the Commonwealth? Isn’t everyone happy that a member of the Commonwealth recognizes King Edward VII of England as the head of state?"
Sevan nodded with a bright eye and replied, "Well, I will communicate with China as soon as possible, and I believe the result will be feedback soon."
Sevan went on to say, "Mr. Prime Minister, I don’t know what topics your country is going to discuss?"
Tang Shaoyi took a look at Jiang Baili, and Jiang Baili Bai went on to say, "Mr. Prime Minister, at the beginning, Prime Minister Belfo once conducted a cooperation in our country, that is, receiving military students from the Republic of China to study naval technical and tactical command in your country. Later, because there was a misunderstanding between the two countries, we intend to reopen this cooperation and hope that your country can give us convenience."
Cervantes breathed a sigh of relief. The first two topics are that the British Empire wants something from others, and the Republic of China did not set too many obstacles. I am the prime minister of the British Empire. If it is a small country, the Republic of China will do so, but I am the world’s first prime minister. Prime minister of the British Empire!
It’s always so low, it’s so embarrassing!
Sevan laughed. "It’s a great thing that the navies of the two countries exchange military technology. This matter is no longer a problem. On behalf of the British Empire, I would like to promise to accept 50 to 100 military students to study in the UK every year, and we will also subsidize them with scholarships!"
Sevan finally showed off a handful of heart slightly proud.
Jiang Baili said, "Our communication is not limited to tactical command, but also includes military technology exchange. We are willing to introduce your advanced warship technology, and our warship technology is also willing to be shared by your country to jointly promote the development of your two navies!"
Sai Wan was shocked. Although the naval strength of the Republic of China is not as good as that of the British Empire, their naval technology is very distinctive, and some areas have reached the world’s leading level. In recent years, China has made great efforts to introduce high-level scientists, which is directly related. If the two sides exchange technology, the benefits will not be the Republic of China alone, and the British Empire will also gain great benefits!
Sevan exultantly said, "Ha-ha, General Jiang can’t ask for this cause in the British Empire. General Schell of our country has long admired your Zheng He-class battle cruiser. If possible, we are very willing to invest in buying your warships!"
Jiang Baili said with a smile, "I’m afraid this won’t work for the time being. The construction period of Zhenghe-class battle cruiser is very long. In one year, we also have up to four seas, which is still the most ideal situation. In fact, it is impossible for the shipyard to build Zhenghe ships, so the shipbuilding speed is not enough for our country to make its own coastal defense."
Ah, there’s a door!
Sevan’s heart was pounding. Although Jiang Baili rejected Sevan’s proposal, it was only temporary. It is very likely that Zhenghe Ship will be opened for sale in the future. This is a very important message!
Sevan laughed. "Good General Jiang, I am very much looking forward to this day!"
Sevan paused briefly and then said, "General Jiang, you also know that Europe is troubled in autumn. The German Empire has always wanted to wage war in an attempt to seize the world hegemony and subvert the world peace situation. Although the British Empire is not afraid of Germany, it is also facing great pressure. We hope that your country can join us in doing its part in the cause of world peace! We welcome your country to join the Allies as one of us. "
Tang Shaoyi heart did Sarah laugh about world peace hanging sheep’s head selling dog meat! Isn’t it? Fighting for colonial interests?
