Chapter 290: Drag it down

Minister Elitan, who was expressionless, said in a deep voice, "This is the suggestion of our cabinet, a well-intentioned suggestion. Our Cabinet does not want relations between the two countries to go in a direction that no one wants. In order to avoid a situation that will make everyone sad, our Cabinet is officially proposing this proposal to you. ”

"Oh?" Gao Yang shook his head with a smile, took out a cigarette, lit it, and said indifferently, "Not necessarily, right?" I think there will be a lot of countries that want to see our two countries moving toward confrontation, or even war. If that day comes, there will be many countries celebrating with champagne, right? ”

Minister Elitan's eyes fluctuated, and he coughed lightly, and said, "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, the opinion of any country The British Empire will not care. Now, I just want to know what you think about the proposal of our Cabinet? After speaking, he stared at Gao Yang with blazing eyes.

Gao Yang smiled and said, "Don't look at me like this, okay?" I don't have any flowers on my face. ”

Picking up the diplomatic note on the table, he looked at it and said, "Don't talk about the Hong Kong issue. Why don't you talk about it? Do you want to occupy it forever? Forever? ”

Minister Eritan said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, our Cabinet only hopes that you will refrain from making any more demands for the early recovery of Hong Kong before the time limit for the treaty expires. After all, our cabinet has invested a lot of money and material resources in Hong Kong over the years to build a small fishing village into an important city. On the issue of Hong Kong, our Cabinet would like to wait until the treaty expires before sitting down and discussing it. ”

"Discuss it after the treaty expires? It means that you are not sure whether you will pay it back when the time comes? Gao Yang said with a smile. It's just that there is no smile on his face, and there is a dangerous aura in his slightly narrowed eyes.

"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, I think we can do this question," Minister Ellitan could explain before Gao Yang could interrupt him.

"Alright, let's move on to the next one." Gao Yang flipped through the diplomatic note with an expressionless face and continued, "About continuing to hire British officials to manage customs? ”

Minister Elitan, who was rudely interrupted by Gao Yang, looked at him dissatisfied, and said in a deep voice, "Your national government. The government is still in arrears on the large amount of compensation and interest accumulated over the years, and the customs has provided collateral for these indemnities. Moreover, your personnel do not have the expertise to operate customs. It is very necessary for our professionals to help with customs matters. We're here to help you. ”

"Shh Gao Yang pursed his lips disdainfully. Said meanly: "Ran to my house to rob it, and said it was for my own good? Your Excellency the Foreign Secretary, I doubt how you could have graduated from Oxford University with your intelligence? Did you ghostwrite your dissertation? ”

"You !!" Minister Elitan: "Huh! He stood up, pointed at Gao Yang with a flushed face, and shouted loudly, "You are talking nonsense!" ”

Looking at Minister Eritan, who looked excited, Gao Yang sneered and said, "I have no interest in Your Excellency's personal questions. Let's get down to business first. ”

Ignoring Minister Elitan, who was about to crush his teeth, Gao Yang flipped through the diplomatic note and said in a deep voice, "All the former ministers. Does the treaty continue to be in force? ”

"Smack!" With a bang, Gao Yang threw the diplomatic note in his hand on the table. Taking a deep breath of cigarette, he said with a gloomy face, "None of the concessions you have demarcated on my land have been returned?" Do you want me to continue to pay compensation and interest? ”

"Yes!" Minister Eritan looked at Gao Yang without showing weakness. Shouted.

"All countries except you and France have agreed to give up these. Your cabinet isn't worried at all. Gao Yang said with a cold face.

Minister Eritan smiled smugly and said, "What are you worried about? The British Empire has not voluntarily given up any interests for hundreds of years! This will not change for the sake of your country! ”

Gao Yang's nose fluttered, his slightly narrowed eyes glowed red, and he stared at him deadly. Minister Eritan also looked at Gao Yang-for-tat, and the two of them looked at each other with needles.

The parlor fell silent, and there was an eerie aura in the air, as if it were a substance. There seemed to be a fierce spark in their eyes.

"Zizi ~~~" The origin suddenly sounded in Gao Yang's mind. made Gao Yang, who was angry, suddenly couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha~" Gao Yang couldn't close his mouth when he was amused by the sudden comedy of the origin. What are you doing? When did intelligent AI have this feature? Where did you learn this? This entry point is too coincidental, right?

Minister Ellitan stood there stupidly, looking at Gao Yang who was smiling with a puzzled face. What's going on? Which one is playing?

It took a while for Gao Yang to hold back a smile. I patted my cheek and calmed my mood.

Looking at Minister Elitan, who looked sluggish, he chuckled and said, "Your Excellency the Foreign Secretary, I think we should sit down and discuss it." I already understand what you mean, so let's do it today. I have something to do, please take care of it. ”

After saying that, he got up and left the meeting room, leaving Minister Elitan, who couldn't figure out the situation, where was he trying to figure out what was going on?

Back in his office, Gao Yang smiled and said, "Why are you so funny all of a sudden?" That's not your style. ”

"Isn't it weird? I don't feel like anything, huh? Don't talk about that. How are you going to deal with the British? Origin said in a strange tone.

Walk over to the wine cabinet, pour yourself a glass of whiskey, take a sip and say, "What else can I do?" The British are crazy. This means that there is a desire to go to war. It's funny, I was going to go to them, but they found me first. ”

"War now?" Origin asked.

Gao Yang shook his head and said, "Of course not, it is definitely going to be fought, but we must deal with the polar bear first." At least drag it out to the north for the war. By that time, the Navy should be almost complete with rebuilding and training for new equipment. When the time comes, if the British don't come, I will take the initiative to call over! ”

"The British have mass-produced new aircraft, thinking that they will no longer have to fear my air strikes. Hmph, when the real war starts, they will know what the technological gap is. After understanding the British's dependence, Gao Yang said coldly.

"Why don't you use the Exocet missiles you used before? There should be no problem using them against the British Navy, right? Yuan asked suspiciously.

Gao Yang leaned on the bar, holding the wine glass in his hand and shaking it gently, and said in a low voice: "First of all, I don't want to continue to waste energy points here, you don't know how expensive it is to build a Exocet missile!" After that, what happens when I'm gone? Even if there is a detailed database, it will take many years to climb the tech tree here. What combat effectiveness can an army that is completely dependent on external forces have? How can the navy rise without the baptism of the battlefield? ”

After a pause, he raised his head and drank the wine from his glass, and then said, "Even if I sink the British Navy with Exocet missiles regardless of the cost, what about the French?" What about the Americans? With the strong productive forces of the United States, it will not be long before a powerful fleet can be formed again. How many missiles can I make with my energy points? ”

Pick up the bottle and fill it again, and continue, "Don't talk about maintenance or anything, people here won't use it at all!" Instilling knowledge in cyborg warriors is a big expense. Where do I have so many energy points to splurge? There are so many forces on the other side of the modern plane staring at me, and every bit of energy is extremely precious, and I can't continue to use it here. ”

"Besides, with the addition of fire control radar, a navy with new aircraft ahead of its time is enough to defeat any enemy. It's time for them to get out of their hands and be put to the test. A chick that has been hiding under the wings of an eagle to avoid the wind and rain will never learn to spread its wings and fly high! Gao Yang held the wine glass in both hands and said in a deep voice.

"You can just make decisions about these things, what are you going to do now?" Origin said.

"Let Gao Feng drag the British first, negotiate, anything, even if you verbally promise the British, what can you do? When the time comes, just turn your face and deny it, right. Gao Yang put down his wine glass, thought for a while, and said, "Let those two gentlemen also participate in the negotiation together, so that they can increase their qualifications and prestige, and when they take over, there will be less resistance." ”

"What reason are you going to leave?" Origin asked curiously.

"You don't care, you'll know when the time comes. Now, I'm going to see how the navy that will crisscross the oceans of the world is preparing in the future. Gao Yang finished drinking the wine in the cup, slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and said softly.

Minister Ellitan was placed in the Peace Hotel. Early the next morning, the negotiation team led by Gao Feng arrived at the Peace Hotel and began a long negotiation journey with Minister Elitan. One by one, word by word.

Sloppy, vexatious, opposed, refuted, compromised. Minister Eritan could vaguely sense that Gao Yang was preparing to stall for time.

But every time he was about to give up, the negotiator on the other side would compromise. Give him hope to keep going. After all, who would go to war at the risk of serious losses with what they could get from the negotiating table? Time passed in the midst of these unplayable quarrels.

Gao Yang came to the Qingdao Naval Base again and boarded the flagship Dingyuan to go out for training with the fleet.

Dingyuan bridge. Gao Yang was holding a telescope with great interest to observe the huge fleet that stretched for more than ten nautical miles.

"Ji Liang, how is the navy's mastery of new weapons now?" Gao Yang, who had a faint smile on his face, asked softly.

"Sir, I've never seen anything so good!" General Chen Jiliang said with joy on his face: "It's really shocking! This thing called radar is definitely an epoch-making weapon. Not only can it detect and monitor the enemy from a distance, but it can also coordinate and direct the gunfire of the battleship. The hit rate has been greatly improved, which is incomparable to manual observation and the original observation equipment! ”

"I know that the radar is very useful. I now wonder if the officers and men of the Navy are already proficient in these weapons. Not only the use, but also the daily maintenance, can the problem be quickly repaired when it occurs? What is the effect after using it during artillery drills? How much has it improved compared to before? Gao Yang put down the binoculars, smiled lightly, turned to look at Chen Jiliang and asked. (To be continued......)
