Chapter 48 Persuasion
The Second Seam Mansion has been in office for 7 years, and it is impossible for Pei Chengyi not to know Yan Jingjiao's political inclination.
Before going to Yuanfu, Pei Chengyi knew that he was talking about the relationship between the Republic and the European Union, and he also guessed that Yan Jingyu did not intend to be here. Make concessions on key issues, so let Liu Xiaobin prepare several documents related to the EU in advance. Although it was late, Yan Jingyu still read the document very patiently.
All of these documents have one thing in common, that is, they describe the actual situation in the EU.
When Yan Jingyu closed the last document, Pei Chengyi put down the teacup and said: "As we all know, we all think that the possibility of the EU defecting to the United States is much higher than that of us. The point is that this must meet the condition that the EU has not been granted independent status and still has to look at the face of the United States on major issues. Judging from the current situation, it is almost impossible for the EU to complete the integration process and unify under a single government in just a few years or a decade. In other words, it is unlikely that the EU will break away from the United States and become a powerful country with independent capabilities. In this way, even if we continue to adopt a tough policy, we will not let the EU fall into our arms and will not be able to benefit from it. It can be said that even if the European Union collapses under the double pressure of us and the United States, it will be the United States, not us, who will benefit? When the time comes, most of the divided European countries will turn to the United States, and the rest will remain neutral, perhaps even Greece and Romania, which have always had good relations with us. Arguably. This is exactly what the US authorities would like to see the most and the main reason for the active fight against the EU
Yan Jingyu's brows locked together, but he didn't rush to make a statement.
Pei Chengyi knew very well in his heart that it was very difficult to persuade Yuan, so he continued: "Judging from the US policy towards Europe over the years, when the EU has repeatedly approached us, the United States not only does not make concessions, but has to suppress the EU inch by inch, which is a very abnormal thing. Intelligence intelligence has confirmed that the US authorities are not worried that the EU will ally with us in extreme cases, in any case, an EU consisting of several countries is simply not possible to form an alliance with us, and the United States still has Britain in its hands, which can be used to strike at the EU at any time. The United States is suppressing the EU in order to create a false impression that if we join forces with the United States, we can dismember the EU or make the EU an insignificant international organization. Judging by the intelligence in the possession of the MIA, the US authorities have been preparing to pick up the pieces. It can be said that as long as we stand with the United States in attacking the EU, we are resting for the tiger
"The question is, should we support the EU?
Pei Chengyi hesitated a little and said, "We have no other choice. The new address of this site has been changed to: just a mouth... 8。 Please log in to the valve!
As I said at the beginning, whether the EU is united or divided, we are unlikely to benefit. It is only the US authorities that are so unscrupulous, and European countries such as France, Germany, and Italy only dare to be angry but dare not speak out. For us, there is only one way out, and that is to do the opposite and try to help the EU achieve unity
"Unification?" Yan Jingyu frowned again.
"To be precise, through the process of integration, Europe and China will become a centripetal federal country, so that it will have the ability to make independent decisions on major international affairs." Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "Of course, we can't expect the unified EU to become our ally. In any case, the relationship between the EU and the United States is too close, and even if we have the same purpose as the EU, it is impossible to stand on the same front, at least not on the same front against the United States. But we can manage to keep the EU from being our enemy. In fact, we do have a lot in common with the EU, for example, on Russia, we want to have more say in Central Asia and Mongolia, and the EU wants to have more influence in Ukraine and Belarus, so Russia is our common enemy with the EU. What's more, the EU also has the potential to become a global power, and a class of great influence. It can be said that as long as it can be unified to the same catty. Under the government, the EU is a powerful presence. In this way, the EU will also have to go over the United States, at least on an equal footing with the United States, so the EU will cooperate with us on this issue. ”
"You mean, there is a way to keep the EU neutral?"
Pei Chengyi nodded and said, "The neutrality of the EU can give us a few points higher chance of winning." It can even decide the final victory. In fact, we can't expect anything higher from the EU, and as long as the EU remains neutral, we should be satisfied. ”
Yan Jingyu also nodded, indicating that he understood what Pei Chengyi meant.
"If you want the EU to remain neutral. The key is to help France, Germany and Italy promote the integration process
"The problem is, the time is too short 2"
"That's the key question we're going to talk about." Seeing that Yan Jingyu took the initiative to raise this issue, Pei Chengyi simply took this opportunity to say, "As we all know, through decades of efforts, the EU has achieved economic integration, and with the help of economic exchanges and the visa-free system, personnel exchanges within the EU are very frequent. Arguably, the biggest problem affecting the unity of the European Union is that the differences in national culture and values no longer exist, and the real problem is how to unify dozens of countries under a single government while ensuring the interests of all member states. In fact, this is exactly what we are dealing with the United States against Europe... Second, we must focus on what to say. The economic and social problems of several countries can be at the same level, and there are serious regional differences in China, and the United States is no exception, and Russia is even more serious. It is precisely this difference that makes it difficult for EU policies to accommodate all countries, and therefore for all countries to support integration. In fact, the key is not in the government of each member state, and how to use the issue of reunification for profit is the main manifestation of its national interests. In short, the EU wants to achieve political unity. It's not impossible, it's very difficult, and the time it takes is certainly very long. And beyond our imagination. ”
"That is, it is impossible to unify under one government in the short term."
Pei Chengyi nodded and took a sip of tea. "Don't talk about the short term, with the current situation of the EU and the current international situation, even if our war with the United States does not break out, the EU will need at least 30 years, that is, by the end of this century," he said. Only then will it be possible to see the dawn of reunification, and it will be unified under one government. It's definitely going to be the next century. ”
At this time, Yan Jingyu smiled and did not speak, waiting for Pei Chengyi to continue.
Obviously, Pei Chengyi said what he wanted to say, that is, there is no hope for the unity of the EU, so why should he support the unity of the EU?
"Our aim is not to help Europe achieve its great cause, but to keep Europe safe from war." For the EU to remain neutral in our war with the United States, and strictly neutral, it is not necessary for the EU to complete reunification. In fact, it only takes one thing to keep the EU honestly out of the battlefield
"What?" Yan Jingyu asked very simply?
"If the EU enters the war, and it is an ally of the United States, it will deal a fatal blow to its great cause of reunification, will the EU still enter the war?
Yan Jingyu was slightly stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Actually. It is not difficult to achieve this, only one prerequisite is to let the EU know that whether the EU enters the war or not, and whether it fully supports the United States, we can win, or at least not lose. Seeing Yuan's interest, Pei Chengyi was also more energetic and said, "In this way, we only need to do three things well." As soon as we go to the EU to show our war prowess, let the EU know how strong our military power really is? The second is to conduct more in-depth people-to-people exchanges with the EU, so that EU leaders know that our people have the most firm ideas and can bear all the losses caused by war for the sake of national rejuvenation.
The third is to increase cooperation with the EU, so that the EU can believe that we not only have the most advanced power technology in the world, but also have many cutting-edge technologies that the EU and the United States do not have. All in all, there is no need to cling to cutting-edge technology as we have done in the past
"Will this threaten the country's security?
Pei Chengyi smiled and motioned for Liu Xiaobin to answer this question.
"The export of cutting-edge technology will certainly have an impact on national security, and may even threaten national security, but can we control it and minimize the impact through a strict and effective regulatory system? In general, if you can eliminate a potentially powerful enemy, even a little leakage of top-secret technology will do more harm than harm. ”
Yan Jingyu nodded and looked at Pei Chengyi.
"It's not enough for us to have confidence, we have to give confidence to the EU." Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "Of course, confidence is also contagious. As long as the EU knows that we are strong enough, it will not fall to the United States during the war. The problem is that this is not enough, and for the sake of insurance, we have to add a second line of insurance, which is to allow the EU to achieve military integration before the outbreak of war. As long as the defense forces of several EU member states, even just some of them, can be tied together, it is impossible for the United States to kidnap the EU through the United Kingdom. You know, there is a good chance that the United States will bring Britain into the war during the war. Even if Britain did not formally enter the war, but was only affected by the war, it would have had an impact on the EU's war decisions. Imagine that if France, Germany, Italy and other EU member states are tied together, even if Britain is involved in the war, these countries can also use the excuse that they have not fully achieved military integration and that Britain has not joined the EU's collective security system, so that we will have one less opponent
"The question is, how can this be achieved?"
Pei Chengyi took two sips of tea and said: "There are not many ways, mainly relying on the Military Intelligence Agency, through secret contacts with France, Germany and Italy and other major EU member states, if necessary, we even have to provide some cutting-edge technology to these countries to help these countries improve their military strength." In other words, if France, Germany, and Italy are capable enough to ensure the strategic security of all EU member states and to provide each member state with the weapons and equipment they need, those EU member states that have had to base their security on an alliance with the United States in the past will reconsider their security strategies and promote the process of military integration with the EU bloc as the main security guarantee. There is no doubt that military integration is the most crucial and even decisive basic condition for political integration. As long as military integration can be successfully achieved, even if the EU is not unified under a single government, the influence of major member states such as France, Germany, and Italy will increase dramatically
"In other words, we have to risk exporting technology that shouldn't be exported. The new address of this site has been changed to: just a mouth... 8。 Please land on the Valve Mausoleum!
"If you want to win, you have to take risks
Yan Jingyu sighed, looking a little hesitant?
There is no doubt that military technology is absolutely state-of-the-art. Historically, no matter what the period, human civilization has always used the most advanced technology for military purposes, that is, to cause killing. One could even say. War itself is a catalyst for science and technology. Without World War II, there would be no nuclear power plants, launch vehicles, jet planes, electronic computers, and the entire human civilization would have been set back decades. In other words, the advanced technology mastered by the republic was first used in the military. The authorities of the Republic dared to get involved in the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War, which was jointly orchestrated by Japan and India, because the Republic possessed the world's best military technology at that time. For decades, the authorities of the republic have treated the most sophisticated military technology as "not for sale". It can be said that the weapons and equipment exported are better than the backward fighters of the republican ** team, and some even lag behind the strength of the force for more than a year.
As the head of the country, it is impossible for Yan Jingyu not to be unaware of the great significance of cutting-edge military technology to national interests.
Seeing Yuan's hesitation, Pei Chengyi gave Liu Xiaobin a look.
On security issues, apart from the Minister of Defense, the most vocal person is the Director of Military Intelligence. In fact, because the director of military intelligence is often at the forefront of the security front and has first-hand information, especially in peacetime, the burden on the director of military intelligence is much heavier than that of the secretary of defense, so the words of the director of military intelligence are more convincing.
"What we want to export is not necessarily the most advanced military technology, but a slightly more advanced military technology than the one that the EU has. If it can be strictly managed. Making good use of the intelligence we have, such as providing military technology that the EU is vigorously developing but has not achieved results, can not only minimize the harm, but also achieve unexpected results. Liu Xiaobin paused a little and said, "Judging from the intelligence we have, the gap between the EU and us in many key military technology fields is more than ten years, and the gap is only about five years in a very few fields." That is, if we had provided the military technology of five years ago, there would have been no leaks. In fact. With the beginning of a new round of military reform, our military technology is about to make a new leap forward and will soon rise to a new height. The export of military technology to the EU at this time will not have much impact on the national security of our country
"The problem is that there is a high chance that these technologies will fall into the hands of the United States
Liu Xiaobin frowned slightly, leaving this serious problem to Pei Chengyi?
"It is true, there is a real possibility that the military technology that we export to Europe will fall into the hands of the United States." Pei Chengyi first affirmed Yuan's statement, and then said, "As early as the beginning of this century, after the end of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, because the Western world with the United States no longer needs to maintain the huge military industrial system during the Cold War, the military industrial system has been integrated, and many European arms companies have the shadow of the United States behind them, or have an affair with American arms companies. As a result, the military technology we exported to Europe will certainly be stolen, and the problem of secrecy is very serious. It is precisely because of this that we have to be more sympathetic and try to export as much military technology as possible that is not useful to the United States, but is very important to Europe. In any case, cooperation between the United States and European countries in the military field is not equal, and the technology that the United States has does not mean that Europe also has it. That is, European countries definitely need our technical support
Yan Jingyu nodded slightly and turned his gaze to Liu Xiaobin.
"We have not yet investigated the specific situation, but based on the information we have, we will be able to cooperate with the EU in at least a dozen or so areas.
Of course, we also have access to some of the EU's advanced technologies, Pei Chengyi added.
"In other words, we have no other choice?
It's not that there are no other choices, it's just that the results of other choices will definitely not be much better Pei Chengyi paused a little and said, "From my standpoint, I hope that the war will never break out, and we will eventually cross the United States in a bloodless way and become the number one and only power in the world." The problem is that the United States will never willingly be pulled down from the throne of world hegemony by us. In fact, it is the interest groups of the United States that are unwilling. That is, even if we do not take the initiative to provoke a war, the United States will provoke a war, and it will provoke a war in a situation that is extremely unfavorable to us. We have no other choice, and the Chinese nation has no other choice. Thirty-four years ago, we could still choose to retreat and stay in obscurity for a few more years. Now, we don't even have room to retreat, and we have an abyss behind us. ”
After listening to Pei Chengyi, Yan Jingyu sighed.
As the head of the country, it is impossible for Yan Jingyu not to know the meaning of Pei Chengyi's words. Before Hong, Ji Youguo could make the decision to back down. A few more years? But since the warplanes of the Republic bombed the military facilities of India, the Republic has no second way to go, and it cannot even retreat, but can only move forward?
The problem is that for such a major decision, Yan Jingyu will definitely need time to think about it.
"In other words, we have to take the risk of exporting some technology that shouldn't be exported."
"If you want to win, you have to take risks
Yan Jingyu sighed, looking a little hesitant.
There is no doubt that military technology is absolutely state-of-the-art. Historically, no matter what the period, human civilization has always used the most advanced technology for military purposes, that is, to cause killing. One could even say.

For decades, the authorities of the republic have treated the most sophisticated military technology as "not for sale". It can be said that the weapons and equipment exported are about the same as those of the Republican Army, and some are even more than years behind.
As the head of the country, it is impossible for Yan Jingyu not to be unaware of the great significance of cutting-edge military technology to national interests.
Seeing Yuan's hesitant look. Pei Chengyi gave Liu Xiaobin a look.

As the head of the country, it is impossible for Yan Jingyu not to know the meaning of Pei Chengyi's words. Before Bi years ago, Ji Yanguo could make the decision to retreat and endure it for a few more years. However, since the warplanes of the Republic bombed the military facilities of India, the Republic had no second way to go, and could not even retreat, but could only move forward.
The problem is that for such a major decision, Yan Jingyu will definitely need time to think about it.
