Chapter 193: Negotiation (6)
This time, Kaneda Katsu and others were entrusted by Hatohiko Asakanomiya to come to Lu'an for negotiations, and their main purpose was to confirm whether Minoru Higashikunomiya was still alive, otherwise all negotiations would be meaningless. Moreover, once it is discovered that Minoru Higashikurenomiya is dead, Hatohiko Asakanomiya will immediately send troops to attack Rokuan.
Therefore, Kaneda Katsucai proposed as soon as they met that he must see Minoru Higashikuremiya before he was willing to continue negotiations.
Bai Fei naturally understood what Jin Tiansheng was fighting Xiao Jiujiu, according to his previous temper, not to mention negotiation, even when he met with these little devils, he felt that it was a waste of time, and he directly asked people to pull them out and cut them down.
But now that he is under a heavy trust, he has to endure his disgust and talk to these devils. However, Bai Fei is also the master who does not play according to the routine, he is angry, so in front of the Japanese negotiators, he beat up Minoru Higashikuremiya. In this way, Kaneda Sheng and the others were really anxious.
Bai Fei took out a few pieces of paper from his arms, threw them on the table and said, "Release the people on the list immediately, let's talk about other things." ”
Kaneda Katsu picked up the paper and saw that it was full of dense names, and at a glance, there were as many as six or seven hundred.
Jin Tiansheng frowned and said, "It's too much to exchange His Excellency King Yan for so many people..."
Bai Fei pretended not to care and said, "If you think that Minoru Higashikunomiya is not worth such a price, you can refuse it completely, I don't care." Okay, it seems that there is no need for us to talk any further, for the sake of the two armies fighting each other, I will let you go. ”
After saying that, he walked straight out.
"Stay, General Bai stays! We can discuss it again..."Kaneda Sheng took a few steps closely, trying to hold Bai Fei, but was stopped by the armed soldiers of the National Army behind him.
Bai Fei turned his head and said with a cold face: "No need to discuss anymore, if you want to save Minoru Dongjiu Palace, you must meet these requirements of mine, otherwise you will wait to collect his body." ”
Jin Tiansheng gritted his teeth and said: "Please give me a radio, I can't be the master of this matter, I must report to the top to reply to you." ”
Bai Fei glared at him and said to Song Xilian, "Brother Yin Guo, please ask your people to get him a radio station." ”
Song Xilian was a little worried: "Wouldn't this be inappropriate?" ”
Bai Fei shook his head and said, "If they dare to play tricks, I will cut down Minoru Higashikure Palace alive at the gate of Lu'an City." ”
A moment later, Song Xilian's subordinates came in with a radio station, and Bai Fei said to Jin Tiansheng: "My patience is limited, don't challenge my patience." ”
Kaneda Katsu said: "Don't worry, there will be results soon." ”
With that, Kaneda Katsu passed the content of the negotiation to the headquarters of the Second Army of the Japanese Army in Hefei. After receiving the telegram, Hatohiko Asakanomiya looked at the long list of names on it, and he was angry and cursed.
The staff officer said on the side: "Your Excellency Commander, the Chinese army is crazy, exchanging one person for more than 700 people, among which there are many high-level technical talents that are highly valued by domestic and special high-tech departments, this is simply wishful thinking. ”
Although Hatohiko Asakanomiya was also very angry, he did not lose his mind, and frowned: "The conflict between the north and the Soviet Union, now the base camp has made concessions, and reiterated that the focus of the operation is in China, and I believe that soon we will receive an order to advance westward." But now my younger brother, King Minoru Higashikurenomiya, has fallen into the hands of the Rokuanchina Army. His Majesty the Emperor also attaches great importance to this, and when I came to take up my post this time, His Majesty personally told me that unless the conditions of the other party were extremely harsh, I would try to rescue them. As far as I'm concerned, King Minoru Higashikure is my younger brother, and I don't want him to die in terms of feelings or royal face. And we are about to go west, and at this time, we will not allow any existence that makes us feel like a rat thrower, so we must solve this problem. ”
The staff officer said: "Then Your Excellency thinks that the country will agree to such conditions?" ”
Hatohiko said: "They put forward these conditions, and the most valuable of them are those high-level talents, but compared to the noble status of King Minoru of the East Kure Palace and the influence of the royal family's face, this is nothing. In this way, you send a telegram in my name to your Majesty, to make the matter clear, and to wait for Your Majesty's ruling. ”
"Hey!"
At the same time, Lu'an.
Although Bai Fei has long understood that although Minoru Higashikurenomiya is a member of the Japanese imperial family, the emperor's uncle. But his value is actually very limited, once he opens his mouth, the other party is likely to completely give up the life of Minoru Higashikuremiya, and start to carry out crazy revenge in other aspects, such as massacring Chinese people in the occupied areas and so on.
Therefore, since Bai Fei received the commission from Ye Ting and Shen Zui, although he seemed to be bohemian and uninhibited on the surface, he was actually quite worried in his heart, for fear that if the devil felt that his request was unacceptable, the two sides would collapse the talks. At that time, he will peel and cramp Higashikuremiya Minoru, which will be useless.
So in fact, Bai Fei was very anxious in his heart, and he saw that after Jin Tiansheng sent the telegram, he had not received a reply for a long time, and his heart became more and more anxious. Just as he was impatient, Kaneda Katsu walked out with a telegram and said to him: "General Bai, we agree to your conditions, His Excellency King Hatohiko of Asaka Palace has asked the prisons in various places to be notified separately according to the list you gave, and later, they will be released!" ”
Bai Fei was overjoyed, he suppressed the joy in his heart, and said: "It's not enough to just release them, we must ensure their safety, until they leave the area controlled by you Japanese, I will let people pick them up, you don't play tricks." ”
Kaneda said: "You can rest assured that since we have promised, we will definitely not do it." Now, is it possible to release His Excellency King Minoruhiko Higashikuremiya? ”
Bai Fei said: "You and I are stupid, I must get their safety confirmation before I can release people..."Although Bai Fei said this, he was a little reluctant in his heart, and when he was thinking about how to the Japanese, he saw that Jin Tiansheng nodded and agreed.
Bai Fei immediately became vigilant, feeling that things were going too smoothly, and it shouldn't be so simple.
Sure enough, until the afternoon of the next day, Bai Fei successively received news from both Ye Ting and the military commanders, confirming that most of the anti-Japanese soldiers had indeed been released by the Japanese. But only Shen Zui had previously focused on the few returned experts, but there was no news.
Bai Fei asked Kaneda Katsu to come to him and asked him what was going on.
Jin Tiansheng said: "General Bai, we can say that we are very sincere in this negotiation, and now except for those few experts, everyone has been released according to your request." So I hope you can show some sincerity as well. Don't worry, those experts have been transferred from Shanghai to Hefei by plane, and as long as you agree, we can immediately hand them over in Tanglaozhuang and other places..."
Bai Fei secretly scolded the little devil chicken thief in his heart, and he wanted to kill him with a knife, but after thinking about it, he still felt that those experts were more important, and he had no choice but to follow their arrangement, and ordered someone to take Minoru Higashikurenomiya and Kaneda Katsu and others to the border between Hefei and Lu'an, and exchange those experts with the Japanese.
