At the beginning of April, the general elections in Myanmar were in full swing, and at the same time, the Soviet Union had a declaration of independence, and although the State Council of the Soviet Union and the international community refused to recognize its independence, the Soviet Union, a huge red empire, looked like it was crumbling against the backdrop of drastic changes in Eastern Europe.

In the Myanmar general election, as Lu Zheng expected in his speech at the Political Office, among the 93 political parties participating in the Myanmar general election, the military-backed National Unity Party won only ll, 485 seats, while the largest opposition party, the Pakatan Coalition Party, won 399 seats, winning by an overwhelming majority.

The day after the election results, General Naisan drove Lu Zheng to fish on a bank of the Yangon River.

Among the green tropical trees, the Yangon River meanders like a silver belt, and the scenery is very beautiful.

Myanmar is a Buddhist country, and many historical legends are related to the Buddha, and legend has it that there were more than 13,000 stupas in the Bagan Plain near Yangon, known as the "City of 40,000 Pagodas".

However, the relationship between the ruling military government and the monks was extremely bad, and just beside the riverbank, the soldiers under General Nayama drove away two monks who were fetching water, and then set up a sentry post, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and the security was extremely tight, as if facing a great enemy.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Chairman Wen Rui seems to be not ready to delegate power. ”

During this time, he had a lot of contact with Lu Zheng, an old friend he had made in Beijing, and knew that this young diplomat was quite sharp, extremely accurate, and had a deep knowledge of the study of the international political situation, but he never expected that he would gain insight into his own intentions.

At yesterday's emergency secret meeting of the powerful military faction, Wen Rui, the number one figure in the military, had already vowed not to hand over power to the opposition, and had already conveyed to the senior officers of the army that an order could be purged at any time.

However, this is top-secret information, and how did this Minister Lu know?

Lu Zheng pointed to the soldiers standing guard and said, "Heavily guarded, are you afraid that someone will assassinate you?" Are you ready for war? ”

Nayama suddenly, all the people who followed him were guards, and he knew how much it might happen in the next few days, and his nerves naturally tensed, and Haha smiled: "They are too nervous." ”

Naisan is short, dark and thin, with a hearty temperament, but Lu Zheng knows that these are all appearances, how can he be a simple person who can stand for many years in Myanmar, a country where there are many military factions and really rely on guns to have the right to speak?

Sitting side by side on the rattan chair on the shore with Naishan, throwing the fishing line into the water, Lu Zheng sighed and said: "The political situation is chaotic, and it is the people who suffer." ”

General Naisan asked Lu Zheng to go fishing, hoping to hear the real attitude of the northern neighbor towards this election, even if he has heard the diplomatic cliché, if he wants to know the true intentions of the high-level of the northern neighbor, it is still through private exchanges, and this young diplomat, although he is not very old, but he has been introduced in Beijing, is the grandson of the founding father Lu Lao, from him, can really understand how the northern neighbor is going to lay out in Southeast Asia after adjusting its foreign policy.

Listening to Lu Zheng's words, it seemed that he hoped that the political situation in Myanmar would be stable, and General Naisan naturally wanted to speak for the military, explaining: "The Pakatan Harapan Party has no experience in governance, and if power is handed over to them, the future of this country will be destroyed in chaos and bloodshed." ”

Lu Zheng nodded slightly, "I agree with some of your views. After thinking about it, he said, "General Nayama, we are close friends, and I hope that I can speak freely and use my identity as a friend to communicate with you in private." ”

Naisan couldn't ask for it, and met with Lu Zheng frequently, hoping to form a personal friendship with Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng pondered the wording, after all, although Myanmar is small, Naisan is a powerful figure, that is, Deng Sankun, and it is completely different from it, although it is speaking in private, in a sense, in the eyes of Naishan, he also represents many people, so the wording should be cautious, thinking, Lu Zheng said: "If Chairman Wen Rui insists on not handing over power, he will have to face a lot of international pressure, especially if there is a bloody conflict, and the ensuing pressure will be extremely huge." Therefore, if you do not hand over power, you must also explain it clearly from the legal theory, such as your constitution, citizenship law, etc., there are many defects, and it is a safe way to formulate the constitution first and then hand over power. ”

General Nayama pondered Lu Zheng's words and nodded silently.

Lu Zheng smiled again and said: "Actually, General Naishan, have you ever thought that if Chairman Wen Rui does not hand over power, his prestige will inevitably plummet, and the political situation is unstable, so it is ...... to talk about" He smiled as he said and didn't say any more.

General Naishan's swarthy face was serious, and he didn't say anything, as if he hadn't heard Lu Zheng's words.

In the office, Lu Zheng is arranging the next phase of the work of the Political Department, mainly in response to the chaos in Myanmar, which may be extremely chaotic in the next few months, and the impact on the economy of this agricultural country is also within the scope of the intelligence analysis work of the Political Department.

Zhu Qiong and Chen Tongda, the two deputy directors, are here, and now they don't dare to despise Lu Zheng, a young diplomat, who has never worked on the diplomatic front, and can see the political situation in Myanmar very thoroughly just by relying on various materials, this young diplomat is really talented.

Most of the diplomats in the Political Department think so.

It's Chen Tongda, gradually, the appearance of that kind of old-timer is not very good.

While Lu Zheng was talking, there was a gentle knock on the office door, Du Xiaohu walked in, came to Lu Zheng's side, and said in Lu Zheng's ear: "Something happened to Awang's family." ”

Lu Zheng was slightly stunned, "What's wrong?" ”

Speaking of these things, Du Xiaohu was full of fire, but he could only hold it back, and said hatefully: "I was arrested by the police in Lao Burma." This is not the old Burmese people need money for the election, and give us Chinese a tax increase, the following tax officials took the opportunity to collect money, layer by layer, Ngawang family felt that the tax was too heavy, and the tax officer who collected a few words, the tax officer started to beat people, when pushing and shoving, it seemed that the tax officer was injured a little, so he called the police, in fact, Ngawang Dad was beaten by them and was about to vomit blood, but there was no external injury, what about the tax officer, the corner of his eye was broken, this is terrible, when he left, the old Burmese also threatened, saying that they would sue Ngawang Dad in court, Asking Ah Wang's father to go to prison for the rest of his life, really, it's really bullying" The more Du Xiaohu spoke, the more angry he became, and there was fire in his eyes.

Lu Zheng thought for a while and said, "I'll go and communicate with the ambassador about how to deal with it." ”

The work has almost been explained, Chen Tongda and Zhu Qiong got up to say goodbye, but they all wondered in their hearts, the overseas Chinese in Myanmar have become Myanmar citizens, what can we do?

When Lu Zheng entered Yang Chengye's office, Ambassador Yang was packing up the letters on the table, and when he saw Lu Zheng coming in, he smiled and said: "You came just in time, I will return to China tomorrow to report on my work, and during this time, the work of the embassy will be entrusted to you."

Lu Zheng was stunned and said, "You want to go back to China, why didn't you say it in advance?" ”

Ambassador Yang sighed and said: "It was decided temporarily, the ministry has agreed that I will go back to recuperate, and by the way, I will report on my work

Lu Zheng looked at Yang Chengye and knew in his heart that Yang Chengye didn't want to play with him anymore.

Perhaps, because he has too many ideas, just a few days ago, he brought it up to Yang Chengye to see if he could take advantage of this chaos to find a way to support a pro-China government in Yangon.

Yang Chengye is close to his sixtieth year, and it seems that he has lost his enterprising spirit, and he just wants to survive until retirement, and now he looks at his momentum too restlessly, who knows if he will cause any big trouble after making a mess, he doesn't want his reputation to be ruined today.

This is also because he doesn't know some of his hole cards, thinking that he is young and vigorous, acting extremely, and he is powerful on the left.

pondering, Lu Zheng didn't say anything, told the matter of the Ngawang family, and said: "Look, do we intervene, I think we should negotiate with the Wen Swe government to fight for the citizenship rights that overseas Chinese in Myanmar should enjoy." ”

Yang Chengye sighed: "You don't think it's a coincidence, I have to pack my luggage with my lover in the afternoon, and the plane will be early tomorrow morning, and the time is very urgent." From now on, I am on vacation, and you are the chargé d'affaires of our embassy. ”

Lu Zheng was helpless, but seeing Ambassador Yang's current situation, he didn't want to be involved with himself no matter what, so he could only nod.

Yang Chengye spread his hands, signaling that he had no choice but to continue to clean up the documents on the table, but after hesitating, he still said, "Do you want to ask for instructions from China?" ”

Lu Zheng said with a smile: "It's not a formal note, just use a private identity to express concern, I don't think there is a need to ask the ministry, after all, the ministry doesn't know the situation here, some opportunities are fleeting, and we have the discretion to deal with it." ”

Yang Chengye thought for a while and said: "We should be cautious about pointing fingers at the internal affairs of the Myanmar government, even if the Wen Swe government is forced to give in because the situation needs our support, if the news is revealed, the people of Myanmar will definitely be dissatisfied with us. I wondered, what about all the harms? ”

Lu Zheng knew that this old diplomat was still not at ease, and although he was determined to get out of the matter, he still kindly reminded himself that he was dutiful.

Lu Zheng knew that Ambassador Yang was smoking, so he lit one himself, handed him another one, and said: "In fact, as long as the government guides the national sentiment, it is not a big problem at all, after all, there has been no real war between us and Myanmar in the modern history, and we have not invaded Myanmar. ”

Smoking a cigarette, Lu Zheng said with a smile: "I'm ready to seize this opportunity to take advantage of the fire, let's see step by step." ”

When Ambassador Yang saw that he insisted, he sighed in his heart and stopped persuading.
