Chapter 170, The so-called mediation

In fact, as early as the end of the Battle of Songhu, Lao Chiang began to prepare for the Japanese attack on Nanjing City in Nanjing, and he also made a lot of preparations for this. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

To tell the truth, Lao Jiang himself actually understood that Nanjing City was not a good place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was impossible to hold Nanjing City with the current strength at hand, but in all aspects, he still chose the option that should not be chosen.

Chiang considered the political significance of defending Nanjing, the relocation of factories near Nanjing, and how to evacuate the army in the event of the destruction of Nanjing, but he only thought about many others.

"Chairman, there's news from the League of Nations!" Lao Jiang's secretary trotted into the office.

"Let's put it on the table first." Lao Jiang said without raising his head, as if he was nervously busy with the work at hand, and he didn't seem to care much about the news of the League of Nations.

"Yes!" After the secretary put the telegram on his desk, he carefully left Chiang's office.

"Is it finally here? I hope you don't disappoint me! After seeing his secretary leave, Lao Jiang took the telegram to which he attached great importance with great anticipation.

After reading the telegram, Lao Chiang's face was a little mixed, happy that the Soviet Union promised the Japanese that once they captured Nanjing, they would immediately send troops to attack the Japanese, and worried that the Soviet lion opened his mouth because he was completely incapable of satisfying the appetite of the Soviet Union, or that he did not dare to satisfy the appetite of the Soviet people.

However, he did not expect that this news had been embellished with a thousand autumn brushstrokes, and in fact the Soviets did not say for sure that they would send troops......

However, Lao Chiang did not dwell on this reply from the Soviet Union for a long time, because today it was not only the Soviet Union that replied to him, but also Germany, the United States, and the United Kingdom.

"Chairman of the Committee, Mr. Todmann, the German ambassador to China, is here."

"Let him in!" Lao Chiang couldn't help but be excited when he heard that the German ambassador to China was coming, and now he urgently needed good news.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang." Toddman greeted Lao Jiang in fluent Chinese.

"Ambassador Todman, please be seated." Lao Jiang motioned for the other party to sit down and talk.

After a lot of meaningless greetings, Lao Jiang finally couldn't bear the urgency in his heart.

"Ambassador Todman, I wonder how your mediation is going?" Lao Jiang asked expectantly.

"The Japanese agreed to accept mediation." Tao Deman said the news that made Lao Jiang excited, but the other party's next words really made Lao Jiang's heart cool by half.

"However, the Japanese have made some requests, and we need to ask you to look at them." Todman pulled out a document from his briefcase.

"I hope that Mr. Chiang will agree to these conditions, after all, if the truce is to be beneficial to your country, Japan, or our Great Germany......" As the old Chiang looked at the conditions offered by the Japanese, Todman gushed on the side.

"It's absolutely impossible! There is no way I can agree to these conditions!! Lao Jiang refused without hesitation.

"Uh......" Toddman didn't know what to say for a while.

"Mr. Jiang, this is the last chance for peace, if you don't grasp it, then there is no chance."

"Impossible, since the Japanese have no sincerity, then we can only fight to the death." Lao Jiang shook his head firmly.

"Well, then, good luck to you and your country!" The corners of Todman's mouth twitched slightly, Lao Jiang's reaction was expected by him, but it was also unexpected by him.

Since Germany did not bring any good news, then Chiang did not expect Britain and the United States to do anything.
