The military and economic aid negotiations that are being conducted secretly by the Vietnam Industrial Village Investment and Development Company are not independent and are not independent from the diplomatic negotiations between countries. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In order to get out of Vietnam as soon as possible, the White House, the State Council, the Pentagon, and Congress have been surprisingly unanimous in their approach to the issue of providing aid to the "industrial investment system."

The time limit for evacuation is only two years, and every second and every second must be counted. There is no need to wait for the two sides to reach a consensus on all issues, hold a signing ceremony, and then steadily move forward with the implementation by specific departments, as in normal negotiations, but negotiate and implement one by one, which is incredibly efficient.

"The Air Corps Training Assistance Program has been finalized to recruit 68 retired Air Force personnel from the CIA to be stationed in Phu Quoc Island in an unofficial capacity. Our original Air Training Brigade was separated from the Reserve Officer Training Corps, and Phu Quoc Air took the initiative to set up an aviation academy to train civil aviation personnel. ”

In addition, the U.S. Air Force training units will train 200 fighter pilots on their behalf, and helicopter pilot training will be held in the Philippines. Mr. Qian and Mr. Gu have instructed Area E (Vocational Training and Research Center of the Vietnamese Chinese Literature and Art Research Association) to assist the Training Department of the Tactical Zone in selecting trainees on a large scale. ”

"The United States has just made a new progress in the arms aid negotiations, and the United States has agreed to provide standard ammunition production lines and related technologies, including aerial bombs and 155 howitzer shells, with a total amount of about $43.2 million.

……

The news of the negotiations and the implementation of the situation flew to Washington like snowflakes, and Li Weimin was a little overwhelmed.

It is necessary to open an aviation academy, to expand the scale of the Vung Tau seamen's school, to select a site for the establishment of a large military industrial enterprise, and to select cadets from the air force and navy...... I believe that the industrial investment company is as busy as the "Yuehua Literature and Art Research Association".

The embassy of the Nationalist Government in the United States sent someone to send an invitation, which could have made an excuse not to go, but among the guests attending the reception was Mrs. Chennault's wife, Chen Xiangmei, and her prospective brother-in-law was introduced by her.

Li Weimin asked his wife to help tie the tie. He asked, "What about economic aid?" ”

Sun Ningyu signed the telegram in the confidential room downstairs, and He Tianming, the assistant, played the role of secretary, holding the folder and reported: "In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the United States can only increase the exchange quota of 16 million US dollars to the industrial investment company in the 'commodity import plan' for the time being. It is also committed to coordinating with the governments of Australia, New Zealand, West Germany and Japan. It will be interesting to see if the four countries can be persuaded to forgive some of the loans that are due. ”

When the "Southern Development" plan was launched, MSU helped several local governments in six provinces to manage Australia, New Zealand, West Germany, and Japan, and borrowed a total of more than $50 million in low-interest loans, which were guaranteed by a creditworthy industrial investment company.

The loans, which are used for infrastructure construction and agricultural development, will be repaid next year according to the agreement.

Uncle Sam is not as generous as others think. I like to do this kind of generous thing. However, if you have a bargain, you can reduce part of it best, even if you only reduce the interest, you can save a lot of money.

Wu Lijun didn't care about these national affairs, she helped her husband finish his tie and walked into the room with a smile to change into a dress, Li Weimin saw his wife into the room, and asked: "That's all, it doesn't add up much, what kind of financial aid is it?" ”

"I'm not done."

He Tianming said with a smile: "Mr. Wu Jingzhi has made several requests to the US side, such as the purchase of $250 million in industrial investment bonds and the provision of $160 million in low-interest loans. Another example is the further reduction of import tariffs on Vietnamese goods. ”

Negotiating, just ask for a price and sit on the ground to pay back.

But then again, when the United States realized that its balance of payments was imbalanced, it imposed tariffs on exports from its major allies, including West Germany and Japan, and erected trade barriers. However, it still takes good care of Vietnam and gives the most preferential trade treatment, which virtually improves the competitiveness of Vietnamese goods in the US market.

As a result, many shrewd Japanese businessmen, in order to make more profits, have invested in the construction of factories in various industrial villages in the south with relatively good public security and relatively stable society. It can not only take advantage of Vietnam's relatively cheap labor, but also "save the country from the curve". Enjoy the preferential trade policies granted to Vietnam by the United States.

Li Weimin nodded slightly, and while walking downstairs with him, he continued to ask: "Has the ground force expansion plan come out, and how many more divisions do Ruan Zhiren and Chen Runwei plan to form?" ”

"It's out. But few divisions are so exaggerated. ”

He Tianming closed the folder and patiently explained: "Taking into account the reaction of industrial and agricultural production and Saigon, and at the same time there are not enough officers and veterans, the tactical area has decided to form only two infantry regiments to replace the 25th Division stationed on the Vietnamese-Cambodian border along the Ha Zhu line. The Ministry of National Defense will not give a number, and the two regiments that are being prepared are temporarily hanging in Jianjiang Province. ”

"Civil Defense Forces?"

"Nominally. Anyway, there are all provinces, and the number of people is more exaggerated than the other when it is reported. ”

South Vietnam claims to have a million-strong army, and purely in terms of numbers, the civil defense force is definitely the main force. However, the water is so large that the actual number of people does not even make up one-third of the reported figures, and most of these one-third are elderly and children.

It's not that the people below want to eat empty salaries, but that the people above have not allocated this amount of money at all, and they don't even have the most basic weapons and ammunition.

Like the "strategic villages", which have almost completely ceased to exist in name, Diem hopes that the local authorities will be able to settle all the expenses themselves. Provincial governors and county magistrates can hardly cook without rice, and in order to win the favor of the president, they can only deceive and make a fuss about statistics.

The formation of two border regiments nominally subordinate to Jianjiang Province and the liberation of the 25th Division, one of the three main forces, for field warfare, especially mountain combat training, could not be regarded as a plan to get the best of both worlds.

Li Weimin walked into the hall on the first floor and muttered: "With only two regiments formed, it is estimated that the US side will definitely have ideas." ”

He Tianming hurriedly said: "On the issue of the expansion of ground troops, General Zhang has reached a consensus with the US side, and at this stage, the main focus is on the establishment of reserves. The company has just squeezed out a sum of money and set up a foundation for disabled soldiers. In the name of providing assistance to disabled soldiers, recruit wounded national-army soldiers in the first, second and third tactical areas.

After recruitment, the wounded soldiers were sent to hospitals in industrial villages such as Da Nang, Vung Tau, Bo Lieu, and Di Thi for rehabilitation. At the same time, intensive training is carried out. After recovering from their injuries and training is completed, they are awarded the rank of reservist, and then they are sent to the countryside to organize militia training. ”

Saigon's financial resources are limited and it cannot take care of so many wounded soldiers, let alone resettle them.

Arrange wounded soldiers who have been on the battlefield and fought in the countryside to organize militias. It can not only train outstanding soldiers for the main force, but also help maintain local law and order, and can thus win the support of the grassroots soldiers of the national army for the "industrial investment system".

Thinking of the provincial military districts, municipal military sub-districts, and county-level armed forces departments of the Celestial Empire, Li Weimin said with a smile: "We must establish a complete set of management, mobilization, command, and logistics systems, and we must set up special organs at the county and township levels. It is necessary to ensure the necessary funds for its work. ”

"General Ren and Chief of Staff Chen have thought about it, and there is a set of plans, and I will show it to you when you have time."

"In the evening, I'll see it when I come back."

As soon as Li Weimin's voice fell, Sun Ningyu walked out of the confidential room and said with a solemn face: "Chairman, something happened, the old ghost is in a hurry, and the priest wants to play with fire!" The study group has entered a state of emergency and Mr. Zhang Yinggui, Mr. Huang Duqing, Mr. Huang Yasheng and Mr. Zhang Muxiang have rushed to Vung Tau. He Guo and Mr. Qin studied countermeasures. ”

"Priest" is the code name of Ngo Dinh Diem, and "playing with fire" refers to someone who wants to incite anti-China sentiments and provoke ********.

For the Society for the Study of Vietnamese Chinese Literature and Art, preventing people with ill intentions from inciting anti-Chinese Pai-Hua is as important as resisting an all-out offensive in Hanoi, because it is also about the survival of millions of Vietnamese Chinese.

Li Weimin realized the seriousness of the problem, and said with a frown: "Tianming, call immediately and help me put off the evening entertainment." Ning Yu, this is not the place to talk, go. We went upstairs. ”

Wu Lijun, who had just walked down the stairs, didn't know why, and asked with a puzzled face: "Not going?" ”

"I'm not going."

"It's okay, you guys go up and talk, I'll go next door and watch TV."

Go back to the second floor. Sun Ningyu took it to the door and reported in detail at 1510: "The old ghost received reliable information, and Ngo Dinh Yen and Ngo Dinh Yau decided to take advantage of the opportunity of celebrating the 25th anniversary of Ngo Dinh Lieu's tenure as bishop to incite the only supporters they have to oppose the Chinese exclusion and China, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of diverting contradictions, diverting attention, and muddying the waters."

They put together a lot of material. Preparing for a vigorous news war the day after tomorrow, the content mainly has several aspects: first, the Chinese clique controls the country's economic lifeline and earns almost all the money of the South Vietnamese people; Second, the number of Chinese groups has increased dramatically through immigration and encouraging childbearing, which seriously threatens the status of the Yue nationality as the main ethnic group;

Third, the Chinese group represented by you, taking advantage of the advantages of population and financial resources, is preparing to divide the Jinou Peninsula in an attempt to divide the country that has been divided into two parts again; Fourth, the Chinese group used the many Chinese schools throughout South Vietnam and a large number of enterprises under its control, especially film and television drama production and performing arts companies, to educate the people in Chinese and promote the Chinese language, in an attempt to turn Vietnam into a small Chinese ...... that has lost its traditions."

Very serious accusations, and all on point.

It seems that the old friend really can't stand it, and in the face of multiple pressures from the United States, the military, and Buddhists, he plays this card, which is very likely to harm others and himself, and then achieves the ultimate goal of muddying the waters in exchange for a respite.

The "Yuehua Literature and Art Research Association" has several sets of plans, and the industrial investment company also has it, and the question now is which set to choose.

Li Weimin uncharacteristically lit a cigarette, took a puff, and asked in a low voice, "What else?" ”

"The situation is so serious that Ngo Dinh Egh has ordered the secret police in Saigon, Vung Tau and Da Nang to disguise themselves as angry civilians after public opinion has been created, and organize and incite the masses who do not know the truth to besiege the two major Chinese districts of Di'an and Hoi An, and besiege the three industrial villages of Binh Dong, Vung Tau and Da Nang. At the same time, he ordered the secret police in other places to organize and incite the masses who did not know the truth after the three major cities were launched, and smashed and looted the shops and factories run by local Chinese. ”

Either you don't make a move, it's so black, it's really ruthless!

Li Weimin took a deep breath and said coldly: "In the face of a siege of thousands of people, if the security team shoots, he can confidently order the national army to go to war with us." If we don't fight back and scold us back, then he can uproot us in one fell swoop. ”

"So Mr. Qian and Mr. Gu think that they should strike first."

"Strike first, a coup d'état like a paratrooper brigade?"

"That was the next step, Mr. Qian and Mr. Gu thought that they could take advantage of the Buddhists, and they celebrated in a big way to exacerbate religious conflicts. We completely return the favor to him in the way of others, and add fuel to the fire on him. At the same time, we should mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized to secretly arrest those secret police who are trying to incite the masses to smash and loot the Chinese districts, industrial villages, and Chinese businesses, so as to nip the danger in the bud. ”

Gui Qingshan had enough intelligence sources and knew their every move well. With the cooperation of the Fourth Tactical Zone, it should not be a problem to take down those secret police officers of Ngo Dinh Yao.

Li Weimin weighed it up, shook his head and said: "As for the media, they also control a lot of media, so they can't block all the government's radio stations and newspapers, even if they are all blocked, they can still hold press conferences." (To be continued.) )
