Okamura Ningji's demeanor changed, and he said categorically: "Since this is the case, then there is nothing to talk about, only to fight." ”

Xiong Bin's expression changed slightly, but Zhuang Jihua looked at Okamura with a smile, Okamura sat firmly on the chair without the slightest intention of leaving, Zhuang Jihua threw out a sentence lightly: "General Okamura, if we continue to fight, we will only accept one result, that is, the unconditional surrender of Yuben." ”

"Haha, haha,...." After a moment of silence, Okamura Ninji burst out into a burst of crazy laughter, in case Buddha heard an extremely ridiculous joke, but Fujiwara Kiyo and Nakayama Shoichi looked angry.

"Examining the economic strength of the company, it is said that it can equip about three million land forces," Zhuang Jihua and his calm voice came from Okamura's laughter: "Even if three million people are all thrown into China, how much place can they occupy?" A million square kilometers of land, look at the map, a million square kilometers of land includes those parts of China? The whole east, South China, almost. In that case, your occupying forces will be only 300 men per square kilometer. After calculating the economic accounts, after the three million men leave the country, there will probably only be the elderly, children and women left, who will give birth? As long as the war lasts for three years, the economy will suffer a serious decline. After five years, the economy will go bankrupt; After ten years,...., I still have the money to buy iron ore, oil, and rubber? I'm afraid that your country's combined fleet has become an ornament, and are there still bullets in the chambers of the front-line soldiers? General Okamura, is it still funny? ”

With Zhuang Jihua's words, the corners of Okamura Ninji's head began to sweat, Fujiwara Kiyo was very unconvinced and ready to refute, and Nakayama Shoichi's face turned pale.

"Can your country fight for ten years?" Shoichi Nakayama argued.

"Don't say ten years, even if you can fight in a hundred years, you must fight," Zhuang Jihua said lightly: "The Chinese will not and cannot accept the fate of North Korea, in fact, some politicians in Tokyo know that the prolonged war is not good for you, so you have always fought a quick victory, pinning your hopes on the weakness of China's political axe, just like the northeast of 918 and Shanghai of 128, but I want to tell you that it will not be in the future," Zhuang Jihua raised a finger and shook it in front of Okamura Ningji: "A political axe, His primary responsibility is to defend the territorial integrity of the country, 918 and 128 have already greatly damaged the prestige of China's political axe, if he does not resist again, the prestige of the political axe will inevitably disappear, and the people and the army all demand that the political axe resist, this is the will of the people, and the will of the people cannot be violated, otherwise he will have to step down, whether it is Chairman Chiang or Mr. Wang Jingwei. ”

Despite the shock, Okamura Ningji still remained calm, he heard the meaning of Zhuang Jihua's words, Chiang Kai-shek is now under tremendous pressure, whether he wants to or not, if the pressure is too urgent, he doesn't want to fight, he can only fight, he doesn't want to care about this Okamura, after all, this is Chiang Kai-shek's own business, but once the war drags on, it will be extremely unfavorable to him.

"General Zhuang, why do you think China can hold on?" Fujiwara Kiyo's forehead is full of green muscles, and he has endured it with the greatest patience.

"Is there any other result than fighting? Become your colony? Zhuang Jihua glanced at him indifferently: "We can't accept it, we can only fight, whoever chooses to surrender will be abandoned by the Chinese, and whoever will be abandoned by the army." ”

"I'm afraid General Zhuang overestimates your compatriots, I believe that there will be many people who cooperate with the imperial army, which has been proven in the history of China." Okamura calmed down and regained his composure.

"Yes, I admit that some of my compatriots will become Han Annihilation, but many more will choose to resist." Zhuang Jihua and Okamura's gazes collided with sparks in the air.

"General Okamura, since a protracted war is not good for both China and China, why can't we negotiate a peace plan here?" Xiong Bin interjected at the right time.

"What's your opinion?" Shoichi Nakayama asked rhetorically.

"Our plan is that your side will withdraw from Luanping, Kuancheng, and Longhua, and the southern line will be bounded by Jinmaogou, Kuancheng, and Qinglong to Longwangmiao, and return to eastern Hebei, the western line will be bounded by Maojinba Ridge, and the northern line will be bounded by the old palace, and no troops shall be stationed within ten miles of the north and south of all demarcation lines, and all military operations, including troop movements and exercises, must be notified to the other side in advance." Zhuang Jihua put forward his plan.

This plan is basically divided according to the current military occupation area, and in Zhuang Jihua's view, all the battlefield achievements have been preserved, and the eastern part of Hebei has been recaptured.

Okamura exchanged glances with Fujiwara Nakayama for the first time, and Nakayama's eyes showed that he could accept this condition, but Fujiwara's eyes were unconvinced. Okamura was silent for a while, feeling a little weak to accept Zhuang Jihua's request like this, so he spoke: "We can't accept such an armistice, Jidong was taken by our army, and we can't just hand it over to your country." ”

"So what are you going to do?" This time, it was Xiong Bin who took the lead, and Okamura's attitude encouraged him very much, so his words were a little excited.

Okamura Ninji glanced at him, and an uncomfortable feeling welled up in his heart, he remembered the negotiation between his predecessor Ito Hirobumi and Li Hongzhang, and how crisp it was at that time, "Allow or not." "It's all over.

"It is okay to return the east of Hebei, but the Shanhaiguan belongs to us, and no troops can be stationed east of the Luanhe River, only police forces, and your country must hand over the east and north of the Yisun River in the enclosure to Manchukuo as compensation, and the southern line will follow your wishes." After Okamura finished speaking, he categorically added: "This is the final bottom line of our country, if your country does not agree, then I have no choice, even if it is a long-term war, we can only accept it." ”

"Okay, that's it." Xiong Bin accepted it immediately, Zhuang Jihua couldn't help sighing, Xiong Bin turned his head to look at him, signaling to stop in moderation, don't increase the weight, this kind of result is already the best result of negotiating with Yuben in recent years.

To be honest, Zhuang Jihua is a little dissatisfied in his heart, Okamura is obviously already very inward, and he can only accept a long-term war, it is nothing more than intimidation, there are often this kind of in the mall, this is already the final price, but as long as you talk a few more words, the price will immediately be lowered by a few yuan.

Since Xiong Bin spoke, Zhuang Jihua didn't insist on the reason, next, Xiong Bin and Fujiwara and Zhongshan talked about the details together, Zhuang Jihua turned around and stood up, walked to the side and poured a glass of wine, the British were very meticulous, they prepared a bottle of champagne for the success of the negotiation, Zhuang Jihua didn't care about anything, he opened him on his own, and when he opened it, he found that Okamura walked to his side.

"General Zhuang, it's better to meet than to be famous." Okamura said very politely, his military uniform looked a little loose on his body, and the military hat made Zhuang Jihua feel even more funny, flattened, tied with a rope behind him, the whole product was like this country, he wanted to be mighty but had no confidence.

"General Okamura, how long will this peace agreement last?" Zhuang Jihua asked lightly, but handed Okamura a glass of wine in his hand, everything seemed natural and unpretentious.

Okamura naturally took the glass: "I hope to keep it up forever." What does General Zhuang think? ”

"I'm afraid it's difficult," Zhuang Jihua took a sip of the toast of wine: "There is a bad trend of thought in your country, thinking that China is easy to bully, and if you win the war, you will rob China's things; If you lose, just apologize, there will be no such thing in the future, General Okamura, I hope you can remember what I said today, that once a full-scale war breaks out between China and the two countries, it will be the beginning of the destruction of the country. ”

Okamura silently took a sip of wine: "As far as I am concerned, I don't want a war between China and China, and we can become friends with each other, work together to develop, and jointly deal with aggression from the West." We can even help you to reclaim the concessions that the West has encroached upon. ”

"Then will this concession also be handed back to China?" Zhuang Jihua asked with a little mockery.

"It's not impossible." Okamura Ninji said.

"Oh, you're so kind." Zhuang Jihua couldn't help laughing.

Okamura said a little angrily: "General Zhuang, I am sincere, and I have always been full of reverence and friendship for China. ”

Zhuang Jihua turned to Okamura and said solemnly: "Then take action, you can't say that I am good to you while robbing other people's things." How do you make us believe that? ”

Okamura was suddenly a little speechless, and Zhuang Jihua said earnestly: "I also hope that China and the two countries will be friendly, but in fact, the two countries are already very dangerous. Did you know that Huang Ying was dropped a bomb on the way here? Do you know who is stationed outside his hotel? If he had signed an agreement with your country according to his wishes, I can assert that he would not have been able to return to Nanjing, and that he would have died in Beiping. Don't look at me like that, I'm not going to plan such a thing. There are patriots in all countries, and there are people who are willing to sacrifice for the country. But have you ever wondered what this represents? That is the increasingly fierce public opinion. Driven by this popular will, the central government must resist. And what about your country? 918 took advantage, and then thought about taking advantage every time, which is a bit wishful thinking. It seems that if you fight, we will surrender and compromise, but I never thought that what if we did not compromise and did not surrender? General Okamura, remember, each of your attacks is pushing us toward an all-out war of resistance. And you are doomed to lose this war. ”

Zhuang Jihua said a lot, and his boss suddenly had an unrealistic fantasy that if Okamura could exert his influence and push back the time of a full-scale war between China and China, then China would have more time to prepare, more fully, and perhaps at a lower cost.

As for how long the treaty would last, he was conflicted, not hoping on the one hand, and hoping that it would last a little longer. If it can last for twenty years, it will be Zhuang Jihua who will tear up the treaty and start the war.

Okamura looked at Zhuang Jihua and silently thought in his heart that it seems that in order to conquer China, it is necessary to start from within China, win over the pro-Japanese faction, and fight against the resistance faction, which is difficult to do by force alone.

The two of them seemed to be discussing there peacefully, but in fact, both of them were making different calculations in their hearts.

Two hours later, the Armistice of Rehe was signed, and for the first time, the army withdrew from the territory they had occupied, and the Chinese forward line was about 200 miles from Beiping.

This treaty, which did not exist in the previous life, came, and Zhuang Jihua began to try to change history for the first time.
