Chapter 201 Rejection of the Soviet Union and Pro-Germany
"General Wei's idea is very bold, and the young man is really motivated. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" After listening to what Wei Qidong said, Chairman Jiang sighed.
"I don't get involved in politics, and I can engage with the German side from the perspective of a person of the future, but the decision is still made by you, the chairman, on behalf of China. In this way, cooperation between the two countries can be deepened. Wei Qidong added.
Hearing this, Chairman Jiang was silent on the surface, but secretly admired Wei Qidong's ability to be a man. There is a hidden meaning in this short sentence, that is, he Wei Qidong does not like power struggles, so it will not affect the rule of Chairman Jiang.
However, after Wei Qidong said this, Chairman Jiang was happy, and he also had more trust in Wei Qidong.
"I have been poor and weak for many years, and I have nothing to lose. In that case, I'll take a good gamble on the future with you, a young man,......" Chairman Jiang finally said arrogantly.
Wei Qidong also wanted to hear Chairman Jiang say this, after all, he still needed to come forward for cooperation between the two countries.
"Well, I'm just politely declining the Soviets' request. However, I have to put this on you and General Tang to show that this is your own intention. Chairman Jiang said with some shame.
"Yes, that's what we meant." Wei Qidong didn't care.
The Soviet Union was urging for a reply, but Chairman Chiang stopped delaying it and directly asked Chen Jie to reply to his intentions, saying that those weapons were the personal belongings of Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi, and that the two were national heroes of the Chinese nation.
The Soviets made several more attempts, until they had determined that it was really impossible to obtain the weapons by peaceful means, and they were a little annoyed and took measures as quickly as possible. The materials that were already in transit were urgently returned by the same route, and this was quickly learned by the Chinese side.
"Sure enough, if you turn your face, you will turn your face." Wei Qidong sneered, in fact, he guessed that even if there was no such incident, the Soviet Union should have reduced its aid to China, because the biggest purpose of the Soviet Union was to use China to drag Japan, but it did not want China's war to stop. During this time, the Chinese side achieved several small victories, especially the victory in the Battle of Shanghai, which inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese army.
According to Moscow's analysis, the main force of the Chinese army will definitely approach North China in the future, thus changing the situation in North China. The Soviet Union's aid to China did not want to see China's rapid defeat, so that Japan could spare its energy to deal with them, and in the current situation, China could not fail quickly, and the Soviet Union's goal had been achieved, so there was no need to continue to aid China.
Just as Wei Qidong thought, the Soviets had been paying close attention to the development of the war in China, and when the war in Shanghai became clear, the Soviets were already discussing reducing or even stopping aid to China.
Of course, if Wei Qidong was willing to hand over the weapon in his hand to them, that would be another matter. However, with the breakdown of negotiations between the two sides, there is no such if.
The Soviets thought that their suspension of aid would surely alarm the Chinese and admit their mistake. However, the Chinese side did not send anyone to contact them urgently, and even the Chinese ambassador to the Soviet Union did not make any movement, which made the Soviets a little unable to see through it.
At this time, Nanjing, under the orders of Chairman Chiang, quickly summoned the German ambassador to China, Todmann.
Suddenly summoned by Chairman Chiang himself, Todman was still a little foggy, knowing that the Chinese army had just won a great victory in Shanghai, unless the Japanese were willing to withdraw from North China and Northeast China.
Otherwise, I am afraid that even if the Japanese want to mediate, the Chinese side will not be willing to pay attention to it. During this time, the most thing he Taodeman did in China was to mediate, but it seemed that the current situation did not need him Taodeman to mediate, so he couldn't figure out why Chairman Jiang had to summon him urgently at this time.
As soon as he entered the presidential palace in Nanjing, he felt a tense atmosphere, and the receptionists said that Chairman Chiang had summoned only one person, so his entourage was taken to another meeting room.
Through the corridors guarded by the guards, Toddman was finally directed to a stop in front of a secret reception room.
"Mr. Todman, please come in." Wang Shihe knocked on the door, then opened the door and invited Todman to enter.
Tao Deman took a deep breath, and then stepped in, it was not the first time he had come to Nanjing, but this time, it made him feel unprecedented tension, there must be something big about it.
However, when Todman entered the guest room, he found that Chairman Chiang was not alone, and there was a young man sitting next to him.
"Mr. Toddman, welcome, welcome......" Chairman Jiang stood up with a smile, and then took the initiative to shake hands, and Toddman hurriedly responded politely.
At this moment, Wei Qidong also walked over, and Chairman Jiang directly turned sideways and introduced to Tao Deman, "Mr. Tao Deman, let me introduce you to you, this is Wei Qidong, General Wei." ”
"Wei Qidong, General Wei?" If you can come to China as an ambassador, you must also be able to speak Chinese, Tao Deman read for a while, and then said with a shocked face, "Could it be General Wei, the anti-Japanese hero who shocked China during this time?" ”
"Exactly." Chairman Jiang said with a smile.
"Fortunately, fortunately......" Tao Deman was very polite, although he did not understand why Chairman Jiang would introduce Wei Qidong to him on this occasion.
"Ambassador Todman is polite, since the outbreak of the July 7 Incident, Ambassador Todman has been helping us mediate relations with Japan, and we should all of China thank you for your hard work." Wei Qidong said with a smile.
"If there is peace between China and Japan, this is what we want to see, and it is what I should do." Todman said politely.
After a bit of noise, several people sat down, Chairman Jiang took a sip of tea, and then said, "Ambassador Tao may not have expected that this time, I came forward to invite you over, but in fact, I didn't have important things to discuss with Ambassador Tao. It's our General Wei, who wants to talk about some important things with Ambassador Tao, and I believe that Ambassador Tao will be interested. ”
"Oh?" Todman looked shocked, he never thought that Wei Qidong's ability was so great that the president of a country would personally come forward to introduce an ambassador of another country, and it was also in the most important secret reception room in the presidential palace, even with his experience, he had never heard of such a thing, no wonder he would be so shocked.
However, Tao Deman is also a person who has seen strong winds and waves, so he quickly calmed down, and then looked at Wei Qidong.
