Chapter 271: Friendship Is Hopeless, Hatred Forever

The county seat of Lin'an County. Fang's compound, the headquarters of the Japanese army. Front yard main house living room.

Zhu Shiyao had a last conversation with Nakagawa Eiichi and Zong Hanichiro with a fearless and decisive heart, and he regarded this conversation as a battle in which he single-handedly faced the invading Japanese army without gunpowder smoke and gunfire. Takagi Hirochi, who was sitting next to him and taking notes, listened to Zhu Shiyao's words full of high passion and strong taste, both respectful and worried, and he kept thinking about how to help Principal Zhu avoid this looming disaster.

Since the invasion of North China with the army in the spring of 1937, and after several years of cruel and tragic war, the Japanese army attacked Pearl Harbor and the outbreak of the Pacific War, Nakagawa Eiichi had the answer to the outcome of this war in his heart. After in-depth analysis and careful study of the factors involved in all aspects of the war, he finally came to the conclusion that Japan would be defeated and China would win. At this time, Nakagawa Eiichi once again heard Zhu Shiyao's such a firm assertion, which was also defined as an irreversible objective truth, which made him feel very uncomfortable and uncomfortable. So he pretended to be puzzled and asked:

"Huh? Irreversible objective truth? Why are you so sure of your confidence? ”

"I'm sure, my confidence doesn't come out of nowhere. Mr. Nakagawa Wing Captain and Special Envoy, who wins and who loses, we will look at the facts and the current situation. Although I don't know anything about military affairs, I can see that your Japanese army is becoming more and more scarce, the battle line is getting longer and longer, and the material support is becoming more and more difficult. There are 20 taboos in our ancient Chinese military books, and you should read them. ”

"Oh? Principal Zhu, if that's the case, what will happen? Eiichi Nakagawa asked.

"After our victory, we will certainly build a rich and powerful new China, rise again and stand tall in the world, and will no longer be humiliated by any foreign powers."

"President Zhu, do you think China will really become rich and powerful in the future? Does China have the ability? How long will it take? Sohan Ichiro asked suspiciously.

"How long will it take, I'm not sure, decades? A hundred years? However, I can confidently tell you two that we Chinese absolutely have the ability and resources to build a rich and powerful new China, and we will definitely surpass you Japan. You two can't see it, and of course I can't see it. Zhu Shiyao said categorically with confidence.

"Hmph, I don't think so, I don't believe it. President Zhu, if you can really become rich and powerful in China, then our Japanese Empire will definitely be even richer and stronger than China. Nakagawa Eiichi retorted unconvinced.

"I don't think so. After the defeat of Japan, the government was completely paralyzed, the economy completely collapsed, the living materials were exhausted, the people's survival was desperate, the social order was chaotic, and the country was not a country. Zhu Shiyao argued.

In order to prevent Nakagawa Eiichi and Zhu Shiyao from arguing further, Zong Hanichiro asked:

"Principal Zhu, I have a question for you. Do you think that in a few years, if China really rises to become rich and powerful, will it send troops across the sea to attack and occupy Japan? ”

"Mr. Special Envoy, I remember this as if we had already talked about it. Anyway, I will solemnly repeat it one last time today. It is not if, our great China will definitely rise to prominence and strength, but it will certainly not send troops across the sea to attack and occupy Japan, which has occupied the vast ocean archipelago. ”

"Huh? Do you say that counts? Who are you? You are not the president or the chairman of the National People's Congress. Eiichi Nakagawa said sarcastically.

"Of course I say this, it counts, and this is determined by the national character of our Chinese. We are a peace-loving and justice-upholding nation, and China has not launched a war of aggression against a foreign country in the past several thousand years in an attempt to annex a sovereign country. You two are experts in China, so you should know about China's history. Besides, our Great China has a vast territory and all kinds of resources, so what is the use of us occupying those small islands in Japan that you want and don't have anything? Sheep herding in the mountains? Dried fish by the sea? From time to time, there are major earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. Can't hide or can't hide? We Chinese don't have the leisure time to do that kind of unethical thing that hurts nature and reason. Zhu Shiyao also said in a harmonious manner.

Nakagawa Rong stared at Zhu Shiyao with a pair of round eyes, and said angrily:

"You? Principal Zhu, you are really sharp and scathing. ”

"Not really. Mr. Nakagawa Wing Captain and Special Envoy, what I told you two in advance is what I said from the bottom of my heart. Alas, the word is contrary to the ear. ”

"Well, I hope so. President Zhu, as you said, after the end of the war, Japan and China will be able to coexist peacefully and have friendly exchanges. Is that so? Sohan Ichiro asked.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Mr. Special Envoy, there has never been such a word for peaceful coexistence and friendly exchanges in Japan's dictionary, and this is determined by your national character and also by your sinister living environment, and you regard foreign aggression and expansion as the only way out for survival and development. Alas, this is a madly stupid, self-defeating idea. And our great China is very willing and can achieve peaceful coexistence and friendly exchanges with you Japan, but you Japan can't do it at all, and the heart of China will not die. Count on your fingers, how many countries has Japan coexisted peacefully and had friendly exchanges? ”

"Principal Zhu, I don't understand what you said, and I think you're contradicting yourself. Just now you said that China is a peace-loving nation that advocates justice, but now you say that it will be impossible for Japan and China to coexist peacefully and have friendly exchanges in the future. How can this be explained? Zong Hanichiro seemed to have grasped Zhu Shiyao's handle and loophole and questioned.

"Ouch, Mr. Envoy, what do you want me to say? Aren't you pretending to be stupid and ignorant? Or maybe you asked knowingly. The first and most important premise or foundation for peaceful coexistence and friendly exchanges is the spontaneous and sincere mutual respect and mutual maintenance between countries, but what have you done in Japan to China? Not to mention, in the past few decades from the Sino-Japanese War in 1894 to the present, you Japan have burned, killed and looted China against us, how can China and Japan coexist peacefully and have friendly exchanges in the future? China has only a natural hatred for Japan that is ingrained into its blood and penetrates into its bones, and it will be passed on to its children and grandchildren for hundreds of years, and it will increase its vigilance and vigilance a hundredfold. Mr. Special Envoy, am I contradicting myself when I say that? Oh, I forgot, you Japanese have not studied or understood what peaceful coexistence and friendly exchanges are, and your textbooks are all about foreign aggression and territorial expansion, right? Captain Nakagawa, why don't you speak? If I'm not right, you can contradict me. ”

"Yes, I'm going to contradict you. President Zhu, tell me, after the end of the war, how should our Empire of Japan interact with you China? Nakagawa Eiichi knew that he was speechless and powerless to refute, so he had to avoid the truth and take refuge, and he easily changed the topic and asked.
