The mustache had a good impression of the Chinese envoys, and in fact, the Chinese envoys all made a good impression on the mustaches. Unlike the British or French, the Chinese's materialist view of history education, the fresh atmosphere of the founding period, every Chinese has a sense of ownership. From a European point of view, it is the "aristocratic model". The envoy himself was a very matter-of-fact person, and after talking to the mustache for a while, the two began to chat. Mustache first invited the envoy to see Wagner's opera The Ring of the Nibelungen, and then asked questions about his view of the world.

After listening to Xiaomuzi's strange views on the Tibet-centric theory, the special envoy smiled and said: "The Chinese sage Lao Tzu mentioned in the Tao Te Ching that the absolute sage renounces wisdom, and our people's party believes in the ideological research that the essence of a person is the sage and wisdom, and that is a pure fact existence, first of all, such a fact exists, and only then can this kind of person be evaluated and defined. To exist is to exist, and even if the person who exists dies, the fact of the person's existence will not change because of the statement of the afterlife. The so-called absession of wisdom means not trying to gain the evaluation of one's own holiness and wisdom. It's a crow that flies in the sky, or a pig that runs on the ground, or lies in the mud and hums comfortably. This in itself is neither strange, nor filthy, nor shameful. Strangely, filthy and even shameful, a person who does not know what he is, let alone the cause and nature of his desires, but abandons himself and imitates it in the form of his own fantasy, is doomed. ”

Mustache is a philosopher in a sense, who has experienced many things, and has had countless transformations and deep reflections on himself. The frank statements of the Chinese envoy about "powerful" aroused great interest in the mustache. Lao Tzu himself talks about quiet and inaction, but in the analysis of the People's Party, he is not idle, or simply a lazy. The BJP sees it as a kind of self-transformation, in order to get rid of all kinds of delusions of great harm, so that it is easier to determine one's place in society. Quiet inaction is only inner tranquility and does not pursue meaningless fame and fortune, and is a spiritual shackle created by self in order to get rid of one's confusion about social values. In a sense, it can be said that this is the realm that only the truly strong can step into.

After a long conversation with the mustache, the Chinese envoy used Nietzsche's words to confirm, "If our ears are full of other people's opinions about us all day long, if we even speculate on what others think about us, then even the strongest people will not be spared!" for others, only if they are stronger than us, can allow us to live beside them; If we overtake them, if we even want to overtake them, they won't tolerate us! In short, let us get along with them in a spirit of rare confusion, and turn a deaf ear to all their comments, praises, condemnations, hopes and expectations about us, and not even think about them. ”

Lao Tzu's discussion on this is "The world knows that beauty is beauty, and evil is evil; We all know that what is good is good, and what is not good is good. Therefore, there is no mutual birth, difficulty and ease are mutually compatible, the length is dwarfed, the high and the low are inclined to each other, the sound is harmonious, and the front and back are with each other. It is to do what the saint does not do, and to teach without words. All things are done without beginning, born without being, for the sake of not being ashamed, and succeeding and dwelling. Fu Wei Fuju is not going to go. ”

As for Xunzi, the last master of the pre-Qin period, his argument is even clearer, "If you ask the person, don't tell you; Don't ask the teller; Don't listen to those who speak. If you are angry, don't argue with it. Therefore it will come by its way, and then it will be followed; If it is not the right way, avoid it. Therefore, it is courteous, and then it can be with the way of speaking; The words are smooth, and then they can be with the reasoning of the word; The color can then be compared with the words. Therefore, it cannot be said to be proud; It can be said without words, and it is hidden; In terms of complexion, it is said to be blind. Therefore, the gentleman is not arrogant, not hidden, not blind, and obedient. The poem says: "Bandits and bandits are given by the Son of Heaven." "That's what it means."

"The troubles of mortals are hidden in a song, and they are hidden in Dali. The treatment is to revert to menstruation, and the two doubts are confused. There are no two ways in the world, and saints have no two hearts. Now the princes have different policies, and a hundred schools of thought have different opinions, and they will either be or not, or rule or chaos. The king of the troubled country, the person of the troubled family, this sincerity, do not seek righteousness and take it for themselves. Jealousy is in the way, and people tempt it. Privately accumulate, lest you hear its evil. Leaning on his selfishness, he observes strange arts, lest he smell his beauty. It is to go with the rule, but not to give up. Isn't it hidden in a song, and it is not right? If the heart is not controlled, then the white and black are in front of the eyes and cannot be seen, and the thunder drum is on the side and the ears are not heard. Wouldn't it be sad that the people of virtue are not above the king of the troubled country, and the people who are in the chaos are not below!

Therefore, it is hidden: desire is hidden, evil is hidden, the beginning is hidden, the end is hidden, far is hidden, near is hidden, Bo is hidden, shallow is hidden, ancient is hidden, and today is hidden. Where all things are different, they are all incompatible, and this mental trick is also a public disaster. ”

The Chinese sages were all very kind people, and there is no need to talk about Lao Tzu, who can be said to be the pioneer of Chinese materialism. Xunzi is even more benevolent, never criticizes others, he asks to learn from his successors to recognize the level of the object of discussion, and he is "not arrogant, not hidden, not blind, and obedient". Even for those "kings of troubled countries and people of troubled families", Xunzi also thinks that they are "sincere, and they do not seek righteousness and do their own thing." Jealousy is in the way, and people tempt it. ”

Since the People's Party regards itself as the vanguard of the working people, it has made considerable efforts to educate the party. As a bastard who was saved by communism and Mao Zedong Thought, Chen Ke knows better than anyone else that people who do misdeeds actually expect success in their hearts and to embark on the right path more than anyone else. The common denominator of these losers is that they "strive to learn what they can see on the outside, rather than pursue what is inside." ”

Gathered under the banner of the People's Party are China's first-rate and even top talents, who can understand the hardships of labor and the hardships of doing things better than anyone else. Even if the discipline of human behavior of the People's Party still has many characteristics of "Shenhan religion", that is to say, it has not been established for a long time, and the leaders of the People's Party are all strong and have completed a considerable part of self-transformation according to their own characteristics, so theoretically it inevitably shows the characteristics of elitism. There are still quite a few bastards who try to engage in academic hegemony, but their research system is quite scientific, and the results are still very good.

The envoy and the mustache had a good conversation, even if the two have different positions on understanding the world, and the starting point of the two is thousands of miles apart from the end point of their pursuit, but both of them are people who have transformed themselves, and both are well aware of the pain of the process of transformation and self-awareness, so the two can fully understand each other's attitudes, although the two actually do not agree with each other's political views at all.

After talking about the sages of China, China used the words of Mencius to compliment the mustache, "Shun is in the acres, Fu Shuo is in the plate building, Jiao is in the fish and salt, Guan Yiwu is in the scholar, Sun Shu Ao is in the sea, and Baili Xi is in the city."

Therefore, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically.

People are permanent, and then they can change; Trapped in the heart, balanced in the mind, and then done; Signify in color, sound in sound, and then metaphor. If you enter, you will not be able to go home, and if you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will die.

Then he was born in sorrow, and died in peace. ”

Mustache did not agree with the ideas of Lao Tzu and Xunzi, but Mencius's words seemed to be tailor-made for Mustache personally. As a corporal, he became the leader of the Führer to save Germany, went through the experience of dropping out of school, being rejected by his beloved art academy, starving, being a homeless man, eating alms in Vienna, carrying a gun in the trenches of World War I, almost blinded by poison gas, saddened by the tragic experience of Germany after World War I, staged a beer can coup, squatted in the prison of the Weimar government, broke with the SA comrades in the Nazi Party, and had Roma executed without reluctance......

In the painful grinding that ordinary people can't accept, he finally cast such a person as a mustache. Everything he experienced was not that he went to "find nothing to do" in order to get today's status, but that he was unswerving for his own purpose, crossed one difficulty after another, walked a road that no one else had taken, and then stood in today's position.

Mencius said, "If you enter, you will not be able to fight at home, and if you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will perish." ”

Mencius said, "Then know that you are born in sorrow and die in peace." ”

Mustache said almost exactly the same thing, and he was the first to know that more than 2,000 years ago, an Oriental sage had said something he believed in, and he felt a greater sense of awe for the culture of the East.

On the basis of such awe and understanding, the mustache finally believed that the envoy in front of him was a person who could talk. He tentatively asked about China's attitude towards the Soviet Union.

"We can accept naval attacks from Britain and the United States, but our national strength cannot withstand the strategic posture of fighting on two fronts." The Chinese envoy answered very clearly. Not only could China not be an enemy of the Soviet Union, but it also had to rely on the Soviet Union for security on most of its borders. China can guarantee only one strategic direction, that is, a strategic direction to the south.

"If we open access to the Indian Ocean, whether we want peace or war, the British will fight us to the end. We have no choice in this strategic direction...... "The Chinese envoy has a conspiracy attitude. What will happen is destined to happen, and it is useless to make an agreement with a smart person like Mustache, with conspiracy.

In fact, the mustache did not react at all to the idea that China was going to fight the British, and after listening to China's point of view, the mustache asked the question, "Isn't China afraid of the United States coming to the aid of Britain?" ”

"The United States also has two different choices, and if the United States attacks Canada, it means that the strategic goal of the United States has also become to carve up Britain." The Chinese envoy replied.

Historically, the process of the United States taking over world hegemony was quite "peaceful", and after Germany took out France and began to blockade Britain, Britain used its military bases around the world to exchange 50 tattered warships from the United States for escort. The transfer of hegemony between Britain and the United States was thus completed. The United States has taken over sea supremacy with its powerful naval strength and has since stepped into the position of the world's leader. Of course, this hegemony was not secure, first of all the Soviet Union. Even after the United States signed the Bretton Woods system, it was beaten back to the 38th parallel by China in North Korea. In the decades that followed, the United States did its best to maintain its position as the leader of the new world. It was not until after the collapse of the Soviet Union that the United States was able to secure its hegemonic position.

The United States in 1939 did not expect that the status of the new world hegemon was close at hand, so the ambitions of the United States were not so great. At this time, the world hegemon was still Britain.

If China moves in the Western Pacific, and if Germany moves in Europe, once the United States strategically chooses to annex Canada, the world will set off a frenzy to carve up the British Empire. In terms of industrial capacity, Britain is no longer an adversary of the United States and China. In terms of land warfare capabilities, Britain could not afford to single out Germany. With such a weak ability, but with a huge territory and colonies, Britain is a big fat piece in the eyes of the great powers. Killing the British Niu Niu, several major powers have a good New Year.

In the face of Mustache's inquiry, the Chinese envoy was not fooled, because Chen Ke clearly pointed out that Mustache actually wanted to make peace with Britain, and even hoped to share the world with Britain "peacefully". This mentality at both ends of the head is also the inevitable result of the lack of strength in the hands of the mustache. The mustache knew that he couldn't take out the British, so he hoped to strategically reach a cooperative relationship with the British.

The Chinese envoy's judgment of the United States convinced the mustache that the United States had always wanted to dominate the Americas, and that if the United States abandoned Britain, the best way would be to swallow Canada. Historically, the United States did this once, and then it was pushed back by the British, and even the president's office was burned down by the British. The "White House" was painted with white ash because it had rearranged the burned, blackened and swarthy presidential office. After painting it, I thought it looked good, and this finally established the exterior color of the "White House".

For the mustache, the killing of cattle by the world powers for the New Year is a bit of a terrifying "setting". He didn't know that when the Chinese Politburo staged this process, especially when Chen Ke said that "the great powers set off a frenzy to carve up Britain", the Politburo of the People's Party was first stunned, and then burst into laughter. You must know that when the People's Party rose up in 1905, one of the driving forces for the Chinese revolutionaries to rise up was that the world powers set off a frenzy to carve up China.

Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river. It has really only been 30 years, and China, which was once in a position of being partitioned, is already seriously considering participating in the frenzy of carving up Britain as a great power. The realistic sense of humor may be nothing more than that.

Regardless of the mustache's attitude, the Chinese envoy noticed one thing. In all the strategic discussions, the mustache did not mention France at all. This is by no means that the mustache has forgotten, and the Chinese envoy can be sure that the mustache is determined to settle the French. As Moustache said in Mein Kampf, Germany had to settle France. If Germany were to settle France, it would be doomed to war with England. The envoy's purpose was only to determine Germany's attitude towards the Sino-British war. Germany could certainly profit from the Sino-British War, but it could not put Germany on the side of Britain.

There are a large number of pro-British guys in Germany, especially many pro-British people in the upper echelons. The matter of the Chinese envoy's moustache was not blocked and airtight. Although they did not know what the negotiations were, the British knew of the secret cooperation between China and Germany. The pro-British faction in the German army sold all this information to the British.

For the British, China, a country on the frontier of the world, is too annoying. In a cabinet meeting, Admiral Winston Churchill began to clamor again for the removal of China.

The construction of the Kra Canal is progressing very quickly, and China has not only dug holes in the Kra Isthmus, but also completed the construction of oil pipelines and railways. The Siamese government did not dare to go to war with China at all, and after China intervened, the Siamese government found that the British oppression of Siam was also greatly reduced. The British are not fools either, what good is it to force Siam to the Chinese side at this time?

After the canal is completed, the Chinese fleet will be able to depart from their ports in Cambodia and go directly into the Indian Ocean. The Indian Ocean is Britain's backyard, an area that no other power will ever allow to touch. Churchill's hardline attitude was supported by many members of the British cabinet.

Chamberlain was not against doing anything to China, he was just against doing it against China without an absolute chance of winning. The purpose of Britain's appeasement of Germany was to bring disaster to the east, that is, to hope that Germany would turn its attention to the east. After all, this guy with a mustache has been shouting anti-communist for decades, and this attitude has been appreciated by the British.

Another reason is that Britain needs time to prepare for war, and it was hoping to continue to sign new treaties to limit the navy, but China jumped out and demanded the same proportion of naval size as Britain. Such a ratio, combined with Japan, which is already in collusion with China, will give rise to a naval force in the Far East that surpasses Britain in its total number. Britain's top priority was the Atlantic, where there was already a U.S. Navy in the same number and tonnage as the British Navy, and with a more powerful navy in the Far East, the end of British world hegemony would come.

In order to appease Churchill and represent those hardliners, Chamberlain could only temporarily appoint Churchill to bring a fleet to put pressure on China. What Chamberlain was really waiting for was an envoy to the United States. Chamberlain tried to bring the United States in and balance the emerging Triple Alliance of China, Japan, and North Korea in Asia. If the United States is willing to strengthen its forces in the Far East and work with Britain to deter China, Britain will be greatly relieved.

The envoy went to the United States to talk, but Roosevelt did not come up with a decent response. On the contrary, the isolationist faction in the United States, which smelled the smell of gunpowder in the new round of war, made a fuss. A few days earlier, on February 1, 1939, the United States had created an "All-American Mothers' Alliance," which had publicly written an open letter to Congress demanding that the United States be banned from participating in foreign wars. The backstage behind this is clearly the Republican Party. Republicans hated Roosevelt's New Deal, which expanded the powers of the federal government and committed itself to government management. Before the election, the idea was to try to hit Roosevelt. Efforts to get Roosevelt involved in Asia and to join Britain in the war seem to have suffered a big blow.

At this moment, the Prime Minister's secretary rushed into the cabinet meeting, he didn't care that so many big people were in the meeting, and the secretary said loudly: "The Secretary of the Admiralty, Churchill, sent back a telegram that there was a battle between the Chinese Navy and the British Navy!" ”

There was a stir in the cabinet meeting, and Chamberlain looked at the secretary in amazement. There was no declaration of war by China beforehand. Not to mention the fact that China is doing a large-scale military movement in the Far East, so that the fight has begun?
