Chapter 266: Negotiations Break Down and War Resumes
In the face of Wei Qidong's aggressive momentum, Umezu Mijiro's tone was also a little colder, and he said directly, "Then General Wei thinks that how does my Great Japanese Empire need to compensate China?" If it is appropriate, for the sake of Sino-Japanese friendship, our Empire Japan will bear all of it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Umezu Mijiro's sentence contains two meanings, they do not deny Japan's aggression against China, and they are willing to compensate, but Wei Qidong's demands cannot be too high, and they cannot exceed their Japan's bottom line, otherwise they Japan will not recognize it.
Wei Qidong didn't say how much it was, but took out a list, put it on the table, and then pushed it in front of Umezu Mijiro.
"This is a rough estimate of the damage caused by the Japanese aggression against China since 1895, and I am responsible to say that this statistic is much smaller than the actual damage, because we only count the losses that have a solid basis, and they are well documented. If the Japanese side has any doubts about any of them, we can provide evidence. ”
Only listening to Wei Qidong say that he hadn't taken the list to inspect it, Umezu Mijiro was heart jumping, and the bad premonition was even worse, he didn't expect that China had done so much homework.
After the First Sino-Japanese War, Japan demanded 200 million taels of silver from China, massacred more than 20,000 people in Lushun, and robbed Taiwan Province.
During the Russo-Japanese War, innocent Chinese people were wantonly slaughtered, causing huge damage to the lives and property of the people in the war zone. Japan was also a member of the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of northern and northern capital, and it was also the country that sent the largest number of troops, and committed the most crimes against northern and northern capital.
Later, he squeezed Yuan Shikai and squeezed China's interests.
During the warlord war in China, the Japanese were everywhere, sowing discord and intensifying the division of China's land, so as to reap various benefits.
In World War I, Jiaozhou Bay was snatched from the Germans.
During the Northern Expedition, in order to stop China's Northern Expedition, the Jinan Massacre was created, and then the 918, Songhu Campaign, the splitting of North China, and the 77 Incident were created to fully invade China, which burned the war to all parts of North China, and Shanghai, an international metropolis, was also destroyed in the war......
These examples are shocking and numerous.
"Your Excellency Umezu, what do you think of it? We Chinese are not exaggerating the facts, it should be only a little. Wei Qidong's tone was calm, and he tapped his fingers on the table and asked Umezu Mijiro.
The other Japanese representatives who accompanied Umezu Mijiro all passed on and looked at the list, and after reading it, many of them had very unnatural faces, and some were even wiping their sweat.
Yes, what kind of people are they in Japan? I only know that I keep asking for it in China, and I don't even think about how much damage I have caused to China, and I can't wait to devour China to the scum.
"How much to destroy, how much to pay, this is not too much to ask. Also, the cultural relics, wealth, etc., stolen from our China, I hope they can be returned intact. Wei Qidong's tone was still flat.
Although Wei Qidong is not aggressive, this blandness is full of murderous intentions.
The Japanese were silent, including the powerful Umezu Mijiro, who could not say a word, the reason was completely on China's side, and it was indeed difficult to find evidence to oppose it, unless Japan did not want to bear it at all.
However, if you want to bear it, how can you afford this huge value? Even if the entire Japanese empire did not eat or drink to pay compensation, it would have to pay for decades.
"General Wei, throughout the history of human warfare, whether it is a victorious or a defeated country, I have never heard of such a huge amount of compensation. Even Germany, which was defeated in World War I, did not lose so much, not to mention that our Great Japanese Empire was not a defeated country. Therefore, I hope that the Chinese side can show some sincerity, because we, the Japanese Empire, really want to maintain Sino-Japanese friendship now. Umezu Mijiro finally broke his silence and said.
"Okay, let's be generous, remove a zero, and allow you to pay it off within thirty years......" Wei Qidong said very generously.
Umezu Mijiro saw that even if one zero was removed, it would be more than 500 billion yen, and at this time, Japan's annual national income was only about 40 billion.
In other words, Japan will have to repay for more than ten years without eating or drinking, and thirty years may seem like a long time, but once it is apportioned, at least two-fifths of GDP must be used to repay the loan every year.
If this is the case, Japan will not need to be beaten by others, and it will be directly dragged down.
Therefore, it was impossible for Japan to accept this demand, and the negotiations on this day ended in a direct failure.
However, China did not want to talk with Japan slowly, and at the time of the negotiations, the Chinese army had already begun to move to the north and south on a large scale, with the north directly stationing troops near the Sino-Korean border and the Sino-Japanese military demarcation line in Siberia, and the south directly accumulating troops in Tibet, Yunnan, and Guangxi.
In the past few years, China's economy has not only developed rapidly, but also the development of the armed forces, which is first manifested in the size of the armed forces, which already has 8 million regular troops, and if you count the militia and the like, it directly exceeds 10 million.
For the world's most populous country, as long as the country can afford to raise it, a 10,000,000-strong army is nothing to China, and it is not a problem to expand it by 10 million.
Of course, the number of people does not determine everything, so the Chinese army did not blindly expand, and the training of the army is also very attentive, many training programs are still provided by Wei Qidong, and he has borrowed a lot of advanced training programs from modern countries.
Wei Qidong also attaches great importance to the cultural education of soldiers, although the education level of most Chinese soldiers is still not high, but it is no longer the past to not know a single big character, this is a great change.
If the quality of the soldiers is improved, the combat effectiveness will naturally rise rapidly. And China's industrial development is the first to serve the military industry.
Nowadays, the individual equipment of the Chinese army is: a Type 39 semi-automatic rifle (some are equipped with a Type 39 submachine gun), a Type 39 pistol, a steel helmet and a full set of military uniforms, ammunition, holsters, cartridge belts, first aid kits, sports water bottles, etc.
This kind of individual deployment is no longer weaker than the European and American armies, and even stronger than the Japanese army.
The machine guns and artillery of each combat unit, and even the armor, were not comparable to the Japanese army. In addition, the Chinese army also has advanced weapons that the Japanese army does not have, such as helicopter gunships, rocket artillery, and so on.
Although it has been a few years since the armistice between China and Japan, Japan's espionage activities against China have never stopped, after all, they have been operating in China for so many years, and they are too deeply hidden.
On the one hand, they stepped up their aggression against other regions to obtain more resources, and on the other hand, they tried to avoid direct conflict with China as much as possible.
Otherwise, with their Japanese arrogance, how could they participate in such negotiations that are destined to be bloodletting.
However, the extent of this bloodletting was completely unexpected by Japan, and even more so within Japan's tolerance.
Japan can also see that China does not want to sincerely settle the Sino-Japanese issue peacefully with Japan, and China needs blood and blood.
And the reason why we want to make a negotiation is nothing more than to want to be famous and mobilize the enthusiasm of the entire Chinese people to the greatest extent.
