"Ma Huowa!"

Yang Chao knew why the Poles wanted to see him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Old acquaintances.

Mahuwa is now Poland's defense minister, and I haven't heard of him coming to the United States.

"Lord Yang!"

Ma Huowa was also very happy, and came up to hug Yang Chao.

Next to her sat Empress Origa and the diplomatic envoys of Poland.

"Are you Poles good, you actually defeated Soviet Russia."

The two were talking quietly next to the meeting.

Ma Huowa sighed: "I have to thank Lord Yang for his support. ”

Yang Chao waved his hand: "I can't thank you for this kind of thing, and I'm not the only one who supports you, the British, the French, who hasn't supported you?" ”

Before the war, Poland's territory was divided between Germany, Austria and Russia, Britain and France were supporting Poland, and the French formed an army composed of Poles.

"Can China provide Poland with a batch of loans?" We're not in a good mood right now. ”

Poles did not get loans in the United States and turned to Chinese loans, but there have been no formal channels.

Yang Chaocai didn't want to lend money to countries like Poland, in a few years, they would be divided between Joseph and Adolf, lend them money, who will go?

Now the United States is still struggling with the economic crisis, Britain and France are busy rebuilding themselves, and the Poles really can't find a place to take out loans.

"There is such a thing as a loan, which requires a mortgage."

Yang Chao prevaricated.

Ma Huwa said: "I understand that Poland is still very rich in minerals. ”

The Poles really use their brains, and they know how to use their personal feelings with Mahuwa.

"Poland can mine its own minerals to earn foreign exchange."

Yang Chao continued to prevaricate.

"We lack funds. ”

Yang Chao sighed: "It's not that you lack funds, but that you lack rule, and your country is in chaos." ”

Poland was unified, Poland was restored, Poland was free, but Poland was not at peace.

The French, the British, all tried to dictate the fate of the country, and Pilsudski, the National Revolutionary Party, and even the Polish Soviets, tried to compete for power.

There really is no future for such a country.

Mahuwa couldn't help but gloomy: "Poland will definitely get better." ”

Yang Chao said: "There is only one way. ”

Ma Huowa showed a searching look.

Yang Chao said: "Unless Pilsudski uses a strong army to wipe out all opposing voices, Poland will only be divided again and again by powerful neighbors, as you have done in history." Russians, Germans, Austrians, Swedes, anyone can on the heads of the Poles. ”

Ma Huwa frowned: "But Poland will not accept a poisonous vegetable." ”

Yang Chao said: "So you will not become a powerful country. ”

Whether to be strong or to be weak is a difficult question to choose, and a country like Poland is the easiest to get entangled in this kind of problem, and in the end there is no freedom and no power, and it will only go back and forth until it finally perishes.

Ma Huowa sighed: "It is impossible for Britain and France to agree. ”

Yang Chao smiled: "This is Poland." When you learn to make your own decisions, you will grow up. ”

Ma Huowa was thoughtful.

"There will be no loans. Unless we can see a united, strong Poland, not a Poland that relies on France today and Britain tomorrow, and has no opinion of its own at all. ”

If Poland the country begins to develop itself now, can have a powerful government, and begins to build its own country in its own way, they still have hope, taking advantage of the timing that Britain and France need them, seeking loans, improving infrastructure, developing industrial production, and having a strong industry before World War II, it can still be done.

But if they get bogged down in infighting, as they are now, and when the Germans rise up, they won't have a chance. And the Germans were not far from standing up, and ten years later, under the great world crisis, Adolf unified Germany, and then Poland wanted to develop again, and the time had passed.

The Poles were disappointed, but they gained something, and they made an agreement with the Tsar to jointly target Soviet Russia, which launched an attack on either of them, and the other side was obliged to fully support the other, and the Poles were clearly imitating the foreign policy of the French. But his idea was to fight the China behind the tsar, and they decided that if the tsar had a war with Soviet Russia, China would not leave it alone.

At the Washington meeting, the quarrel was very strong.

The main contradictory party is China and the great powers.

Gu Weijun quarreled with the British over the Hong Kong issue, arguing that no major country was willing to accept the situation of being occupied by others, and threatening the British that their occupation of Hong Kong had no meaning except to stimulate the feelings of the Chinese people and increase the hatred of the Chinese people towards the British.

He quarreled with the French about the Vietnamese issue and told the French that the colonization of Asia by the great powers, especially East Asia, was unacceptable to the Chinese government, and that France must give freedom to Vietnam.

Arguing with the United States on the issue of immigration and telling Americans that China absolutely cannot accept a discriminatory law, and that in the world, only the United States uses the law to exclude the Chinese, which is an insult to the Chinese people.

The British talked to China about the naval issue, saying that China's naval expansion would provoke an arms race and challenge international peace, and demanded that the Chinese abandon the current crazy expansion plan that far exceeds defense.

The Americans supported Britain on the naval issue, and at the same time talked to China about economic issues, demanding that China abandon the high tariffs on Americans and give American goods the same treatment as other European countries. They didn't mention the issue of China's anti-American bill, because it was the same as anti-Chinese bill, and they were embarrassed to mention it.

The French, for their part, strongly disagreed with the granting of freedom to Vietnam, saying that it was a problem between them and Vietnam and had nothing to do with the Chinese. The French had the support of Britain and the United States, with Britain keeping its base in Hong Kong and the United States maintaining colonial rule in the Philippines.

China, the United States, Britain and France quarreled endlessly.

Other countries, such as Japan, Germany, and Poland, also have their own interests, so the meeting became a vegetable market and quarrels.

"A bunch of idiots!"

Yang Chao saw that the content of the meeting exceeded his expectations step by step, and he couldn't help but get angry and scolded.

not only scolded behind his back, but also called Gu Weijun and several people to his hotel and criticized them fiercely.

"What are you doing here? Fighting with the three major powers of Britain, France and the United States? I admire your courage, but do you think you are the Empress Dowager Cixi? ”

Gu Weijun was not convinced at all: "My lord, please pay attention to your words, this is China's foreign affairs, and we don't think you are qualified to intervene." ”

Gu Weijun is an elite who is still very autonomous, this kind of talent is not afraid of Yang Chao's prestige, and he will not be superstitious about authority.

"I don't have the authority to ask, but I can't see you being stupid. What the hell are you going to do, and is it useful to quarrel with the three great powers? Do you think you can get the British to give up Hong Kong, or the French to give up Vietnam? ”

Gu Weijun snorted: "But we always have to safeguard national interests." ”

Yang Chao scolded: "You have to know that you are Chinese, you are not European." We Chinese want to talk about power schemes. ”

Europeans are superstitious about power, Chinese like to use their brains, Gu Weijun their Westernization is very serious, and they worship power too much, and China does have national strength now, which makes them think that they can be like Westerners, must shout, but in Yang Chao's opinion, this shouting is completely useless, the Italians at the Paris Peace Conference screamed the fiercest, and in the end only the hair in the mouth was eaten, and the big fish and meat were still British and French.

"My lord, this is diplomacy!"

Gu Weijun said categorically.

Yang Chao snorted: "Master Gu, when this official was doing diplomacy, you were still gnawing on books in school. Tell me about your diplomacy and what achievements you have achieved? Did you take back the sovereignty of Qingdao? The three northeastern provinces were recovered by you? Mao hasn't grown up, you talk to me about diplomacy. ”

Gu Weijun is a little difficult to argue, Yang Chao is very famous in the diplomatic circles, there was Li Hongzhang's successor in the past, and later there was Bismarck of the East, and now no one mentions these things, but the last master of Chinese classical diplomacy. That's right, after Yang Chao, China's classical diplomacy ended, and Lu Zhengxiang pioneered modern diplomacy.

But Gu Weijun still said bluntly: "Lord Yang, the times are different. ”

Yang Chao snorted: "Times are always different, and times are always changing. But what is the core of diplomacy? ”

Gu Weijun said: "Interests! ”

Yang Chao said: "You still know that it is interests. What is the essence of diplomacy? ”

Gu Weijun said: "It's another way of war. ”

Westerners think of war as a special form of diplomacy, and this view is basically the way of thinking of modern diplomacy.

"No, diplomacy is not a fierce battle, diplomacy is just a game. Since it is a game, there must be advances and retreats. The only constant is the interest. But are you fighting for profit now? You're messing around! ”

Gu Weijun was very famous later, the most famous is the refusal to sign at the Paris Peace Conference, his personality is tough, his character is also noble, he is an idealistic elite, but he is still very young, and his means are not high enough.

"You are fighting with Britain, France, and the United States at once, and you will not be able to fight for a penny of interests except for forcing the three countries together. You have no real benefit other than offending a large number of enemies. ”

Yang Chao taught him, and Gu Weijun was still a little unconvinced: "Then according to what the adults said, what should I do?" ”

He didn't believe that Yang Chao could do these things, the Hong Kong issue of the British, the Vietnam issue of the French, and the Chinese exclusion issue of the United States have all been in the past few years, and Yang Chao has never had a choice.

Yang Chao snorted: "Let's first separate the firm enemies, the friends you can win over, and the natural allies." Tell me, who is our greatest enemy? ”

Wang Zhengting said: "British? Hong Kong is a territorial issue, and this is non-negotiable. ”

Shi Zhaoji said: "The French, if you force France to leave Vietnam, China will take the leadership of East Asia. ”

"Gu Weijun, which country do you say?"

Yang Chao asked Gu Weijun, who had been stabbing him.

Gu Weijun snorted: "Chasing Britain is about sovereignty, driving France is about hegemony. It won't be the United States. ”

"It's America!"

Yang Chao snorted coldly. (To be continued.) )
