Chapter 153: A Trip to Shanghai
After refueling and inspecting Beiping, Jinan, and Nanjing, Zhang Xuewu's plane landed at Shanghai's Zhabei Airport at noon on 20 April; there was no welcoming procession that Zhang Xuewu expected, nor was there a huge group of reporters to cover the news, only the military police and plainclothes of the Shanghai Street Garrison Headquarters, who were on standby; it can be said that Zhang Xuewu's arrival in Nanjing was only notified by the Supreme Military Commission of Song Ziwen and Gu Weijun, and Gu Weijun, who was the deputy head of the negotiation group, personally arrived at the airport to greet him.
When Zhang Xuewu and Zhou Ying got off the landline and walked into the airport, Gu Weijun, who often goes in and out of the Great World Ballroom, recognized the famous Zhou Ying at a glance! Zhang Xuewu actually got together with the socialite Zhou Ying? This news is really shocking, Gu Weijun, who has some gossip and passion in his heart, is a pity for Song Ziwen, he didn't see this scene with his own eyes, you must know that although Zhou Ying is in the dance field, she is not an idle person who can get close, and the boss in her backstage is naturally great, but there is also a reason why Zhou Ying's surname is fierce.
After all, the beauty of a beauty is willing, elegant people generally pay attention to mood and mood, and most of the things about the overlord are incomprehensible to Qiu Ba, but even if it is Gu Weijun's identity, he can only ask Zhou Ying to dance.
After looking at Zhang Xuewu, who was dressed in a straight military uniform with a straight waist and an extraordinary temperament, Gu Weijun nodded with satisfaction, and finally came to a master who could calm the field.
Zhang Xuewu first gave Gu Weijun a military salute, which made Gu Weijun a little hurried, and after some greetings and admiration, under Zhang Xuewu's humility, Gu Weijun took the first car, while Zhang Xuewu and Zhou Ying took the second car, and the thirty commandos led by Zhang Xuewu were fully armed and rode in the truck behind.
Sitting in the car, Gu Weijun's secretary said a little strangely: "This Zhang Xuewu doesn't have Zhang Hanqing's domineering posture, I thought he had just won the victory, and it must be very difficult to serve, now I see Zhang Xuewu This person is really good, but I don't know why I am too enthusiastic about you, deputy head of the regiment?" ”
Gu Weijun nodded thoughtfully, it is indeed too enthusiastic, but it gives me a very real feeling, there should be no malicious intent, the military and the government are not the same, and I did not attack Zhang Hanqing and the Northeast Army, but helped to maintain it everywhere in the investigation of the League of Nations, Zhang Xuewu's enthusiasm is really hard to bear! ”
Zhou Ying saw that Zhang Xuewu was extremely polite to Gu Weijun, and said a little strangely: "Listening to what you said, it seems that you are meeting Deputy Head Gu Weijun for the first time, and you are so enthusiastic about Deputy Head Gu, this must be very strange!" Where is there a person like you, who is so enthusiastic and respectful when you meet for the first time, but remember not to overdo it, once it is too good, it may become a bad thing! ”
Zhang Xuewu smiled and said: "My respect is from the bottom of my heart, Mr. Gu Weijun is Shaochuan, once served as Yuan Shikai's English secretary, and later served as the premier of the Republic of China Beiyang Political Axe, and the ambassador of the National Political Axe to France and Britain. No matter how hard Mr. Gu Weijun tries, it is doomed that this will be fruitless, and the legitimate demands of China's political axe have been repeatedly rejected. Is it not allowed to keep the signature, it is not allowed to attach it to the contract, and it is not allowed to make a statement outside the contract, so it can only be accepted unconditionally? Under such circumstances, Mr. Gu Weijun felt that since there was no way to retreat, he had no choice but to refuse the visa to make clear China's position. So, on June 28, 1919, when the signing ceremony was held at the Palace of Versailles, the members of the delegations were surprised to find that the two seats prepared for the Chinese plenipotentiary had been empty. In this way, China expressed its anger. ”
Zhang Xuewu paused, as if falling into a memory, and said proudly: "This refusal of visas is of great significance as a milestone in the history of China's diplomacy. This is the first time in the world that China has resolutely said no to the great powers! Finally, it broke the situation of China's diplomatic passivity from the beginning to the end, and the spirit of never giving in has allowed the world to re-understand China. It was also a new starting point for China's diplomatic victory, after which China gradually regained its lost sovereignty. Later, on behalf of China, Mr. Gu Weijun signed the "Treaty on the Settlement of the Outstanding Case of the Shandong Issue" and the "Supplementary Treaty" with Yueben, which stipulated that the troops should withdraw from Shandong Province, the sovereignty of the German leased land in Jiaozhou Bay and the Qingdao Customs would be returned to China, and the Jiaoji Railway would be redeemed by China. Although this treaty was still insufficient, it was still a major diplomatic achievement for China, and the resolution of the Treaty of Versailles on the question of Shandong was thus significantly amended, and China recovered its sovereignty over Shandong and the rights of the Jiaoji Railway. ”
In the thirteenth year of the Republic of China, Mr. Gu Weijun signed the "Sino-Russian Agreement on the Outline of the Settlement of Outstanding Cases" with the Soviet Union on behalf of the Chinese political axe, also known as the "Sino-Soviet Agreement". The main contents: first, the abolition of all unequal treaties between China and Russia; Second, the Soviet Union gave up all the concessions and leases of Imperial Russia in China; the third is the Russian part of the Soviet Union's abandonment of the Gengzi reparations; Fourth, the Soviet Union abolished the extraterritoriality and consular jurisdiction of Imperial Russia in China; Fifth, the China Eastern Railway agreed to be redeemed by China. Sixth, it recognizes that Outer Mongolia is Chinese territory and that China has complete sovereignty over Outer Mongolia. In the twentieth year of the Republic of China, the Tianjin Concession of Belgium was officially recovered, which was the first concession ceded by the Manchu Qing Dynasty recovered by the Chinese political axe!
How many little-known hardships and tribulations did a weak country that has yet to achieve military and political reunification have to pay during such a huge diplomatic victory? If Mr. Gu Weijun is a diplomat of the Great Britain Empire, these cannot be regarded as achievements, but just his work, and the experience of a weak country without diplomacy is unimaginable to ordinary people, so I have special respect for Mr. Gu Weijun, because he is a true patriot.
In the face of Zhang Xuewu's endless talk, Zhou Ying was left to be stunned! Gu Weijun's person Zhou Ying has heard some lace stories, such as how he quit the marriage to marry Miss Tang, it is said that Tang Shaoyi did not agree to this marriage back then, but Miss Tang was ruthless and sent someone to inform her father, if you don't agree to her request, she had to go to Bada Hutong to do the leather and meat business, and hang the golden sign of the current Prime Minister's Miss Rose, as a result, Tang Shaoyi had to make a cheeky move under the collapse, and Miss Tang and Gu Weijun finally combined and came together.
However, Zhou Ying didn't dare to tell Zhang Xuewu about the gossip and lace news that Zhou Ying knew, after all, there was a certain amount of jokes and fabrications in it, and none of the three religions and nine streams in Shanghai were given for nothing, and those who didn't say that they had it, and those who said that they were black and white were commonplace.
Soon, the car arrived outside the Fuxing Hotel, and Zhang Xuewu got out of the car and said to the driver: "Send Miss back!" Slow down and stay safe! ”
Immediately, Zhang Xuewu smiled at Zhou Ying, and four special paratrooper commandos immediately stepped into the car with P-18 submachine guns, holding P-18 submachine guns to guard the left and right.
Gu Weijun looked at Zhang Xuewu and smiled slightly: "Life is a red face, although there is no regret in death!" I'm afraid that this good story of Captain Zhang won't be able to spread all over Shanghai Beach tomorrow morning. ”
Zhang Xuewu also smiled and said: "Wu Sangui was angry at the crown and became a bastard of the Han Turtle King!" However, this method is worth learning from my generation, and the contemptible people will be angry at the crown and become red-faced, and raise 100,000 elite soldiers to expel and say that Kou will regain my lost land! ”
Gu Weijun nodded and said: "How arrogant should the [***] people be, when Captain Zhang was alone in Rehe, I even wrote the sacrificial text, and the insiders accompanied me to shed tears a few times, and now I am even more happy if I don't need it!" The soldiers have won the war, and we are full of confidence in our diplomacy! I haven't been so proud in years! ”
Zhang Xuewu took a deep breath and said: "Mr. Gu, please don't be surprised, your witty remarks in the Paris peace talks are classics, but unfortunately they are a shame for our soldiers and even my countrymen!" ”
Gu Weijun frowned and said, "What do you mean?" Why? ”
Zhang Xuewu sighed softly and said: "If the country is strong and under the military threat, do you still need Mr. racking his brains and making witty words?" In my opinion, the necessary international diplomacy is needed, but in general, there is no need to explain the tough life, what we want will be claimed by ourselves with strong military strength, and a group of little brothers will be planted all over the world for other countries, and whoever is not satisfied will be placed on the charge of anti-convention and anti-humanity to overthrow their current political axe! Whoever dares to stand up and provoke will directly overthrow the political axe of their country and send them to the international tribunal to be sentenced to death or life imprisonment. ”
Zhang Xuewu waved his fist fiercely, Gu Weijun stared at this guy who seemed to have a fight with the German wolf howl mustache, Zhang Hanqing He has been in contact with a lot, but Zhang Xuewu is the first time to contact, but the difference between the surnames of the two Zhang brothers seems to be too big, right?
Gu Weijun pointed to the Fuxing Middle School opposite the Fuxing Hotel and said: "Hongkou is basically about to be occupied by myself, after the change in the mountains and seas, I have invaded nearly 100 acres of land with a dead face, and now the demarcation of this concession has long exceeded the provisions of the treaty, but the national strength has been weak for a long time, many things can be endured, and small ones can not bear to make a big plan!" Tomorrow we will be here for the first negotiation with myself, and the British, French, and American mediation delegations have also arrived in Shanghai, and it is estimated that they will all attend tomorrow. ”
Zhang Xuewu looked at the Chinese military police on the left side of the entrance of Fuxing Middle School and the marines on the right side, frowned, and said, "Can you replace the military police with the special paratrooper commandos I brought?" ”
Gu Weijun looked at the Chinese military police, who were in low spirits and a little sluggish and thin, and then looked at the young but very strong marines who were not tall, and looked back at the special forces behind Zhang Xuewu, Gu Weijun nodded and said, "I'll go and say hello to Commander Song, learn martial arts, your suggestion is good!" Very good! ”
