Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Talking at the negotiation table only means that others recognize your strength or think that you are still valuable, so they will sit down and talk with you. True dignity can never be obtained at the negotiation table. Cannon one  Xiang, there are ten thousand taels of gold. The current situation is a vivid portrayal of this. You have to rely on your ability to eat, that's all.

    Yang Zhen, who was not dazzled by the opening victory, always maintained a clear understanding in his mind. Compared to the beaming Li Yanping beside him, and although he forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, the expression on his face was different.  For the old coach who still betrayed his inner thoughts, Yang Zhen was unusually calm for such a matter that was worthy of celebration.

    Not only was he unusually calm, but when he thought about what he later learned about Chongqing, during the entire war against Japan, compared with the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom, the assistance he received could even be described as a drop in the bucket. When he thought about the thick stack in front of him,  After reading the contents of the U.S. Aid Agreement to the Anti-Japanese War, Yang Zhen showed an imperceptible, sarcastic smile on his lips.

    His sarcasm was not meant to satirize Chongqing. For an army that had been fighting alone for four years against a powerful enemy, even though the army had lost most of its territory, Yang Zhen knew that he was not qualified.  To satirize this army.

    The top management is a high-level issue, and the system is a matter of the system. No matter how you say it, the performance of this army during the entire Anti-Japanese War can still be said to be worthy of the admiration of every Chinese, because for them, they have done their best.  , most of them continued to fight without putting down their guns.

    Under the conditions of modern three-dimensional warfare, how far we can fight on the battlefield is determined by the strength of the country behind us, not by the lack of efforts by the soldiers. Of course, there are those who preserve their strength on the battlefield and those who avoid war.  , it was not uncommon for them to collapse at the first touch, but most of them still tried their best on the battlefield.

    No matter how later generations evaluate it, after all, they resisted on the frontal battlefield for eight full years. Although they suffered repeated defeats and fought only a handful of victories during the entire Anti-Japanese War, most of them still persisted in resisting.  He did not surrender to a powerful enemy, and many of the reasons for his failure were not due to faults in the battle.

    The serious shortage of equipment, the lack of all heavy weapons including tanks and aircraft, the low production capacity of the military industry, even the basic necessary rifles and bullets cannot meet the needs, coupled with the corruption and inaction of a considerable number of high-level officials, the military training  There are serious flaws and there are many factions within the army.

    And most importantly, after losing all the richest areas, it can barely support a huge army and consume huge military expenditures with extremely scarce financial resources, which have seriously restricted and weakened the combat effectiveness of this army. You can't expect an army that can't even eat.  A well-fed army can still be as powerful as you imagine.

    The hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth was directed at the generosity of the United Kingdom and the United States. By this year, the Chinese had faced an opponent whose strength far exceeded theirs. They had been fighting bloody battles alone for four years. During this period, the Americans had nothing but  Apart from a small amount of loans, not a single dollar of substantive assistance was given.

    Not only did the British not provide assistance, but they also did a lot of things to add insult to injury. However, now that the Japanese have posed a real threat to them, they have shown rare generosity. If they had known this, why would they have done so in the first place?  How could the Japanese help the Sino-Japanese war when it first broke out, instead of just watching on the sidelines, allowing the Japanese to grow to such an extent.

    No one asked them to directly participate in the war and openly get involved in the war, but even when the Japanese army wielded the butcher knife in Nanjing, they only imposed an embargo on oil and scrap iron against the Japanese, instead of making a lot of money out of it.  The Japanese, who have been nourished by the flesh and blood of China, will not grow to such an extent.

    Looking at the scene in front of him, although Yang Zhen suppressed the strong feeling of contempt in his heart at this moment, the weird smile at the corner of his mouth still revealed his true thoughts at the moment. There was no way, there was only benefit in these eyes, and from then on  He didn't know what justice was when he came, but when he opened and closed his mouth, all he said was justice, he couldn't help but think so.

    Just like decades later, they are still talking about the so-called human rights and justice. However, this human rights and justice will only be human rights when they think they need it. Otherwise, even if the massacre is in front of them, they will  It will be treated as if you haven¡¯t seen it.

    Human rights and so-called morality are just a fig leaf used by them to achieve their own goals. Whether it is now or decades later, or in these countries, their profit-seeking behavior has never changed.  It sounds grand, but what he does has always been shameless and obscene.

    ??While signing on behalf of their own countries,Hopkins and Admiral Wavell, who had been carefully observing Yang Zhen, looked at Yang Zhen's calm and even serious expression, but they both saw the flash of surprise in each other's eyes, and the corner of Yang Zhen's mouth  The slightly weird smile on his face made the two of them somewhat confused.

    Neither of them expected that after achieving what was a huge achievement for any country, Yang Zhen, a young man who was not yet thirty years old, could actually behave so calmly without showing even a hint of anger.  A hint of joy.

    At this moment, Yang Zhen showed sophistication that was inconsistent with his age, making both of them feel that this person was far more difficult to deal with than they had seen. For Hopkins, although he had already met Yang at the negotiation table,  Yang Zhen was very difficult to deal with, but Yang Zhen's performance at this time made him feel that the young man in front of him was far more difficult to deal with than what he had seen at the negotiation table.

    As for General Wavell, who had developed a keen sense of smell on the battlefield through many years of service in the army, he realized that this damn guy with eyes more sinister than a falcon and who could not hide anything from him would be far better than those in Chongqing.  Compatriots are difficult to deal with and will be an extremely hard nut to crack.

    Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, wants this guy in front of you to change his original idea of ??sending troops to Southeast Asia to cooperate with the British army to defend the British Southeast Asian colonies. I am afraid it will be an difficult task to complete. This person will not change easily because of some interests.  Make up your own mind.

    After the brief signing ceremony was over, Yang Zhen immediately arranged a sumptuous celebration banquet. Although the Americans and the British, who were always very practical, were not too particular about this, as the host, Yang Zhen felt that he had to be somewhat happy and interested.  .

    I didn't even attend the reception banquet held last night for the senior American and British officers who went on inspection. If I don't care about this celebration banquet today, people will think that I lack the necessary etiquette. I can't let others say that I am just a mediocre person.  Send people away.

    As for what he really thinks in his heart, is it because the signing of this agreement means that the alliance established by the United States, Britain and China for the global anti-fascist war has been officially established, and this agreement is the most important among them.  This important act will forever be recorded in the history of human development as a glorious and righteous image.

    The Chinese, Americans, and British, including people with a sense of justice all over the world, will be proud of the birth of this agreement. If such an event cannot be celebrated, it will mark a huge mark in human history.  I'm afraid only he knows this long and stinky excuse that he will regret for the rest of his life.

    The two giants, Hopkins and Admiral Wavell, who originally wanted to refuse, were encouraged by Yang Zhen with ulterior motives, and finally nodded and agreed to Yang Zhen's arrangement. After all, it was clear to the two people who had been in high positions for a long time.  This is a diplomatic courtesy. If you refuse easily, it will be an insult to others.

    Although the celebration banquet Yang Zhen mentioned cannot be compared with the state banquet, and the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces represented by Yang Zhen are not the current Chinese government, after all, this is the most basic diplomatic etiquette, and continuous refusal is quite impolite.  Yes, it turned out to be easy to talk about, and we could use negotiation as an excuse to shirk it, but now that the agreement has basically been signed, it would be too much to refuse.

    Although Yang Zhen's excuse was high-sounding, it was not even considered a fool to these two people. However, Yang Zhen's words were correct. Today's official signing of the agreement means that the United States,  The strategic alliance formed by Britain and the Anti-Japanese War against Japan was officially established.

    Although the Anti-Japanese Alliance does not represent the Chinese government and is only the most powerful force among the many local forces in China, the signing of this agreement can be regarded as something worthy of celebration. At least for now, becoming an ally with the Anti-Japanese Alliance will  It is beneficial to the overall strategy of the United States and Britain. Since the Americans who took the lead have nodded, Admiral Wavell over there has some concerns, but he cannot refuse with a face.

    Yang Zhen's arrangement was obviously ulterior motives, but for General Wavell, who also had ulterior motives, although he was anxious to have further discussions with Yang Zhen on how the two armies could cooperate on strategic issues when necessary, he was faced with the situation.  To Yang Zhen, who kept silent and always took the topic elsewhere, it was hard for him to reveal his intentions too much.

    Although he is very realistic, as a general of the British Army, General Wavell still has the inherent arrogance of an old powerful country in the face of a nation that has been weak for nearly a century, despite the current strategy.  The situation is that Britain is seeking help from the Anti-Alliance side, but the so-called honor of the British military in this guy's heart prevents him from being too proactive.

    He didn¡¯t want to express his inner thoughts in a hurry because of his superiors, so as not to bring trouble to the Anti-Japanese Alliance, especially??Yang Zhen himself has the feeling that the Kingdom of Great Britain takes the initiative to ask for help. Although he is more anxious than anyone else, facing the unhurried Yang Zhen, as long as he wants to retain the so-called pride of the British Empire soldier in his heart, he can only  Ability to go with the flow.

    The two leaders of the American and British delegations, one was embarrassed to refuse, the other wanted to say something, but couldn't let go of the so-called reserve that was left in his heart. Regarding Yang Zhen's invitation to the celebration banquet, the two of them were confused.  Agreed, as for their accompanying persons, they both agreed, and it was hard for others to say anything.

    Chen Bo over there was very nimble. Yang Zhen persuaded the two of them to accept his invitation to celebrate a little. Chen Bo over there organized a sumptuous banquet with two tables in a short period of time.  , In fact, there is no need for Yang Zhen to explain specifically, Chen Bo, who is very flexible, has already been prepared.

    All the ingredients are stored in a place not far from this villa. When today's negotiations started, Chen Bo over there had already urged people to start preparations quickly. Anyway, in Yang Zhen's words, even if there is no need to hold a celebration banquet today  , but so many people in the American and British delegations also need to eat, so preparing early does not mean waste.
