Season 4 Thief on the Airship Chapter 7 East Asia Co-Prosperity
For the time being, with the victory of the war, Tang Yunyang can breathe a sigh of relief.
As far as the whole of East Asia is concerned, Japan has been crippled, and it will take some time for the Western countries to recover from the war in Europe, and there are not a few aircraft carriers, and there is no place for them to talk about things.
As for Russia, after the revolution, it will not even be able to eat, and Comrade Lenin will probably have a headache. So as long as Tang Yunyang doesn't make trouble, they should be thankful, and naturally they won't pay special attention to China's affairs.
Even if they paid attention, Tang Yunyang didn't care much. It's great that you pay attention to China, so I'll pay attention to Siberia, and maybe two tank divisions can also go to the Mongolian steppes to test their speed.
For the time being, he didn't have that plan until he occupied the whole country. Therefore, the positive days will be more leisurely, and the person who starts to be busy should be someone else, and he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Today, he took Tang Yunyang to Weihai City to take a look at the construction here, and then to discuss, and then to negotiate with the Japanese.
This piece of land, which had been leveled, was intended to be used to install the coastal artillery that had been removed from Japan. However, this is a Sunday, and the workers have all taken a holiday and returned to the city for a weekend, so there are no people on the construction site, and the top of the mountain is very quiet.
Several tables are set up on the top of the hill, and comfortable seats from the airship are placed on the side. The snow-white table is covered with a variety of foods such as wine, fruits, and snacks. On the charcoal fire next to it, the charcoal used for the barbecue is burning red.
Tang Yunyang and Mike. Lang and the two sat in a jeep, the same two of them, with their feet stretched out at full length, and hitched on the back of the chair in front of them. The two of them basked in the rare winter sun, and chatted without a word.
"Hey, I said that we have finally conquered Japan with so much effort, you won't just spare them with something, right? In that case, we wouldn't have wasted all our efforts......"
Mike. The old wolf really didn't seem to be wrong with the name, and it was really a bit of a greedy taste, and now the things that the steamers and airships brought back had already exceeded the things needed to build Shandong, but he just felt that he still owed something.
To put it bluntly, he doesn't feel heartache when he beats other people's homes to take things from his family, and now that he has such a good opportunity, he really doesn't take it for nothing. Now, Mike. The only thing that the old wolf was worried about was that Tang Yunyang was soft-hearted in the Sino-Japanese negotiations that would inevitably start later. His heart softened, and he Mike. Isn't the money in the old wolf's pocket about to be affected?
So what is Tang Yunyang's point of view on this matter? He finally had a moment of laziness, lying in the jeep, squinting his sun-soaked eyes, looking at the groups of airships that flew back.
Supplies and grain will be unloaded in Weihai and transported by road and rail to where they should go. As for the equipment of the shipyard, it will be temporarily placed in Weihai and will be shipped to Guangzhou in the future, where a new shipyard will be built. As for other machinery and equipment that can be used away from the coast, the machinery manufacturing industry will be moved to Jinan, the former capital of Shandong, so that it will form the second industrial center of Shandong.
In particular, the whole set of dismantled mechanical processing enterprises is the most indispensable thing for the development of industry. With these machinery, whether Shandong can develop a systematic industry is not in his consideration. Naturally, there is a matter of course, the merchants who bought them from the auction house, as well as those who came back from studying in Europe and the United States and started a business in Shandong.
He had to think that it was Mike. What the old wolf is worried about is that negotiations with Japan are about to start, but he has to ask Gu Weijun and Tang Shaoyi for their intentions in this matter. However, before discussing it in detail, you have to give your brother an account.
"Look at what you said, brother, how can I do such an unobtrusive thing! We lost the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle back then, we lost so much, we defeated that time, and we complained that we had no ability. But this time, we have won in the sky, on the ground, and in the sea, so it's time for us to take advantage of it!
I don't think the compensation is too much, so I will multiply the amount of compensation by 10 for him this time, and return it as it was according to the rules of the first day of the year. If he dares not to agree, Lao Tzu will give him Tokyo an order, and then rob it city by city, until he snatches little Japan back to the primitive society! If I can't do it, I'll have the emperor's surname! Oh, by the way, old wolf, what's the emperor's last name? ”
Listening to Tang Yunyang's appetite on the side, Mike's mouth was high and grinning to the root of his ears. The old wolf thinks in his heart how cool it is, it seems that it is necessary to poke Tang Yunyang to fight if he is fine, anyway, this kid can fight, and he will not lose.
"How do I know what the emperor's kid's surname is, well, I think it's good to listen to the conditions you offered, but it's still a little close, don't you remember what you told me about the 'Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Circle', this time they didn't have a chance to build it, can we be the leader?"
"Hey, this is a good proposal, take this opportunity to mention it to Little Japan!"
Although the plan for the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere was a Japan-centered economic plan proposed by Japan 30 years later before World War II, it could have been moved to him this time. Therefore, Tang Shaoyi, who will negotiate with Japan on behalf of China in the future, hears not only the compensation that is needed before, but also the following conditions.
"First, on the northern side of the Japanese mainland, the board is not allowed to enter the China Sea, otherwise we will sink it at any time without warning, and the southern coast is arbitrary. Second, when the Japanese Empire procured any materials from foreign countries, China had the right of priority in supplying them. Third, Chinese are not bound by local laws in Japan and are punished according to the consular adjudication system. Fourth, cede Jeju Island to China permanently! ”
Tang Shaoyi and Gu Weijun couldn't help but be dumbfounded when they heard Tang Yunyang's conditions. They knew that this time they would negotiate with the Japanese side, and they would inevitably open their mouths, but they didn't expect Tang Yunyang's conditions to be so mean. Especially the fourth one, the bad intentions make people not know what to say.
Jeju Island in North Korea was sent to the Chinese by the Japanese, even if after a few decades, the Koreans regained their independence, and then they wanted to get it back, naturally they said, "What we got from the Japanese, go find them!" "I kicked the ball back to the Japanese, but it was unknown whether the Japanese dared to open their mouths to China at that time.
Seeing the two stunned, Mike. The old wolf would obviously be wrong. Xin said: "Isn't it, these two sons-in-law are now more greedy than my old wolf?" I couldn't help licking my lips with my knowledge and answered on the side.
"What's the matter, Mr. Tang, Mr. Gu, don't you think these conditions are not enough, well, it doesn't matter, we can add more if needed!"
Gu Weijun with Tang Yunyang and Mike. Lang and the two have been together for a long time, and they know that both of them are the kind of guys who take advantage of them and don't have enough, so if Tang Shaoyi really wants to mention a few more, the two of them dare to do it for him. It's just that Gu Weijun wants to know that if there is a Tang Yunyang in China, then Japan, which has always been oppressed by China, will also have a revival in the future. Could it be that the war between the two countries will continue to be fought?
"Enough, that's enough, but I thought the extraterritoriality requirement was better to forget it. Mr. Tang, you want us to promote democracy and the rule of law in China, but if we do that to the outside world, I am afraid that it will become a lever for other parties to attack us in the future! ”
Among Gu Weijun's peers, the most important thing is not how to take advantage of the current victory. After all, the current victory is temporary, and in the near future, the nationwide events after the capture of Beijing should be prepared for in advance.
"Mr. Tang, what do you think?"
Tang Yunyang thought about it sideways, if China wants to establish the majesty of a great power in the international arena in the future, I am afraid that that kind of extraterritoriality is indeed not appropriate to advocate. He turned his head to ask Tang Shaoyi on the side, after all, he was a veteran diplomat, and he would probably have better proposals for these things.
"Mr. Tang, what do you think about the things we mentioned? Especially on the issue of maritime rights and interests, we cannot back down on this point. ”
Tang Shaoyi has participated in too many negotiations recently, at least personally, in his many years of negotiations, he has never been so proud of the negotiations that Ling Nian has participated in. The young man in front of him, although not so familiar with diplomacy, has many of his views, especially those of foresight.
As in the case of territorial waters and exclusive economic zones, the China Sea is shallower than the outer seas, making it easier to exploit resources in the future. In particular, if airships patrol 40 kilometers off the coast of Japan, then the Japanese will not be able to hide their every move on their north coast, which is a very important interest.
"I think that's the case, and we should talk about the ownership of Jeju Island first, and then talk about the maritime economic zone, which is also reasonable under international law. Jeju Island will allow us to extend our EEZ all the way to the doorstep of the Japanese. In that case, there is no need to say anything about not being allowed to go to the sea, but just telling them that except for the 20-nautical-mile width of the territorial sea, the rest is our China Sea, and I think this kind of proposal is more acceptable to them. ”
Mike. Lang and Tang Yunyang listened to Tang Shaoyi's exposition on the sidelines, and they couldn't help but feel admiration for his international law skills. He said this as if everything they were proposing was reasonable, legal, and internationally ethical. Since this step can be achieved, it is estimated that there will not be too many people in the international community who are dissatisfied! Chapter 7 Co-prosperity in East Asia
