Chapter 13 China's Great Diplomacy

PS: Subscription supports genuine glorious

After reading the diary report of Lu Xun, vice minister of education, Song Xiaofei's mood could not be calm for a long time. \. Although these diaries are only more than 30,000 words, they expose the lies propagated by the North Japan Proletarian Party in terms of economy, science, industry, law, culture, the situation of women, public morality, and general poverty. He saw the harsh, rigid, dogmatic, suspicious, powerful, hypocritical society of the North Japan, and the unbearable and suffocating living environment created by all of this.

Song Xiaofei called Lu Xun to the president's office and asked him, "Isn't your United Nations delegation receiving a good reception in North Japan?" Why are you documenting the dark side of Northern Japan? ”

Lu Xun said: "No, on the contrary, the courtesy we have received is something I never expected. We have enjoyed the treatment that only heads of state can enjoy. From the day we set foot on the soil of North Japan, we were surrounded by flowers and applause. Everywhere we went, there was always a grand welcome ceremony, followed by a tour and tour accompanied by a local administrator. From a city to a village, wherever we passed, colorful flags were hung everywhere with the words "Welcome to the United Nations Delegation!" written in Chinese and English. ”

Song Xiaofei said: "I think that although Tangami Enmin is ignorant and cleared his uncle Tanakami Zecheng and his henchmen, he will also show you the beautiful side of Northern Japan." ”

Lu Xun said: "On the surface, everything in North Japan seems so orderly, so noble, and so perfect. However, as the investigation deepened, I intuitively felt the falsehood in it. Obviously. Our daily schedule is planned, who to see, who not to see, what to see, what not to see, and obviously after some careful arrangement. The actions of the people of northern Japan always bear the traces of a kind of performance. Thereupon. On a train, I stepped out of my box. Guess what I encountered, big president? ”

Song Xiaofei said: "Don't sell it. Go ahead. ”

Lu Xun said: "I met a few young people in shabby jackets. I chatted with them, and I was amazed at their ignorance, their ignorance of foreign countries was extraordinary, and they were told by their government that China, the United States, were inferior to North Japan in all aspects. The propaganda of the authorities keeps them in this illusion. They are arrogant because of their ignorance. In turn, arrogance deepens their ignorance. From childish times. The authorities began to reshape people's minds. ”

Song Xiaofei said: "The propaganda of the foolish people in North Japan is not as small as that of the Bolsheviks. This is not surprising either. ”

Lu Xun said: "Japan is indeed a classless society. Everyone's needs seem to be the same. Everyone was unusually dressed the same: the soldiers wore the same uniforms, the common people wore tattered clothes, and even the men of Northern Japan mostly wore government-mandated hairstyles. Everyone can be happy and act happy. Their need for goods is also clearly not to satisfy personal preferences, but only to maintain a minimum of survival. For example, kettles are all military kettles. Their homes are no better. There is almost nothing left inside, except for simple furniture that is the same ugly and the same photo of Taga and Enmin Tanagami. Everywhere we went. Whether in public or private homes, such photographs are hung everywhere, their names are on everyone's lips, and their fathers and sons are praised in everyone's speech. On one occasion, out of courtesy, our delegation decided to send a telegram to Enmin Tagami thanking us for the reception we had received in North Japan, but the salesman refused to send it because the message did not include the words 'you, leader of the working people' or 'mentor of the people'. ”

Song Xiaofei said: "I saw this in your diary. Personality cults are a common problem of totalitarian figures. ”

Lu Xun said: "The most incredible thing is that behind the model schools we have been shown are a large number of children who are out of school and homeless children living on the streets, rural primary school teachers are unbelievably low, wages are in arrears, and a large number of textbooks and exercise books have to be discarded because of poor quality." Only about 1 in 10 children attend school regularly. But it's not like North Japan doesn't even have the money to do that, the city is full of new roads, huge projects, magnificent theaters, and spending three to four million yen to build parks, all of which are large-scale face-saving projects. The cost of hosting our delegation, whether for official business or for one's own private needs, was not to be paid. Because we are honored guests of Japan, we don't want money from them. We eat special food every day. ”

Song Xiaofei asked, "What is the situation of the peasants and workers?" ”

Lu Xun replied: "People enthusiastically praise North Japan as a society in which classes and privileges have been abolished and everyone is equal, but the difference between the wages of ordinary workers and the wages of high-ranking officials, officials, experts, professors, and artists is as high as dozens of times. The nascent aristocracy was lazy and depraved, greedy for pleasure, and disregarded the instincts of others. They have formed a new exploiting class, and the surplus value created by the labour of the workers and peasants has been transformed into wealth for the privileged groups. The privileged proletarian groups not only have wages dozens of times higher than those of the workers, but in fact they also have all kinds of gray or hidden income and special treatment, and the senior cadres of the proletariat are given priority to enjoy generous public money for cars and housing, food rations, special shops, medical services, domestic and foreign travel, food and drink at public expense, and other allowances. No one can say exactly how many luxury villas there are in Enmin Tanagami himself. ”

Song Xiaofei sneered: "It seems that the ** degeneration of North Japan is even worse than that of Soviet Russia!" ”

Lu Xun said: "Yes, the youth of North Japan are painfully watching the glaring inequality spread across the country; The majority of the common people are half-starved, while the bureaucratic privileges are extravagant. The sons and daughters of ordinary workers saw how their peers, who were uneducated and uneducated, of high birth, could enter attractive positions in the state apparatus while they themselves were working hard and exploited in heavy jobs. ”

Song Xiaofei nodded. He asked, "Is there anything else unusual about Northern Japan?" ”

Lu Xun said: "Even if it is superficial happiness, North Japan comes at the expense of individual happiness. In North Japan, anything. On any issue, only one point of view, one opinion, is allowed; The slightest disagreement or criticism will lead to a major disaster of labor reform or even death. "In North Japan, no matter how beautiful a work is, if it does not follow the line of the proletariat, it will be humiliated. Once someone disagrees to degenerate their own art. and who refuses to bow down to orders, and who will suffer. In the cultural circles of northern Japan, you don't hear anything that is different from the official concept. Artists' minds have been worn away without edges and corners, servility and hypocrisy have become the norm in their daily lives, and they can only gain something if they are obedient. Only the mind is on the right path. will enter the ever-expanding privileged class. The truth of history is not important, but it is important to meet the appetite of the people of Tangami, and the requirement for artists, writers, and North Japan is to be obedient. Disobedient intellectuals will lose contact inexplicably! ”

"This is also expected, intellectuals and artists are the 'stinky old nine' in Soviet Russia." Song Xiaofei said.

Lu Xun said: "But I have heard that many people in northern Japan have been sent to labor camps without judicial trial. That is, concentration camps. There were more than 500,000 political prisoners in the camps. The National Security Service would take them from their homes at night. The perpetrators were often locked up with their parents and children, and according to the decree of Taga Tangami: no matter who it was. The offspring of the class enemy must be eliminated until the third generation. Those imprisoned in the camps were mistreated. Prisoners were forced to work in cold winds of minus tens of degrees Celsius, hunger was common, and many worked until they died of exhaustion. Many prisoners relied on grass, rats, snakes, and even ants to feed their hunger. And there is a cruel 'dog duel'! In addition, if a female prisoner becomes pregnant, she is forced to have an abortion, and if she gives birth to a child, both mother and baby are put to death. A female prisoner once secretly gave birth to a child in a field and ended up feeding the child to a dog. ”

Song Xiaofei listened to these tragic things, his heart was heavy, he was silent for a while, handed him Lu Xun's diary, and said: "I will change the name of your diary, it will be called 'Return from Visiting Northern Japan', go and publish it, translate it into English, German, and French, and distribute it all over the world." What do you think? ”

Lu Xun said: "Okay. Now I finally understand that my original sympathy for the Bolsheviks in Soviet Russia was my own delusion. In countries like Northern Japan and Soviet Russia, lies are so common that even the eyes can be deceived. Lies are simply unreliable. In today's North Japan, the people are more unfortunate than ever before, and they lack freedom more than any other country. ”

"Well, you've finally seen the truth!" Song Xiaofei laughed and said, "That's why I chose you to visit North Japan." Sometimes the truth has to be seen for yourself! As you can see, and the rest of the UN delegation may see, we have to strike first. Make a copy of your diary as soon as possible and distribute it all over the world. ”

Song Xiaofei estimated that after the publication of Lu Xun's diary, it would cause a worldwide sensation, and if China continued to support North Japan, it would damage the image of the Chinese Empire, so he summoned Foreign Minister Liang Shiyi, Army Chief Duan Qirui, Army Marshal Feng Guozhang, Navy Chief Liu Buyun, and others to a meeting three days later to discuss foreign policy toward North Japan.

Song Xiaofei sent them the printed Lu Xun diary, briefly introduced the situation in North Japan, and then said: "I want to hear your opinions. ”

At this time, Foreign Minister Liang Shiyi first stood up and spoke: "If we want China to become a leader in the world, or at least an influential power, we must draw a line with rogue countries like North Japan!" Because countries and people are the same, if your friends are hooligans, it's hard to think that you are clean! ”

Feng Guozhang objected to Liang Shiyi's opinion, saying: "It is good for China to keep North Japan to contain Japan's Tokyo regime." ”

Liang Shiyi shook his head and said: "If a country only has interests in its eyes, it is difficult to have real friends, of course, you can also think that the world has only interests for the country." However, such a country, just like a person, if you only have interests in your eyes, who wants to be friends with you? Those who intersect with interests, the benefits are exhausted and sparse. ”

Army Chief Duan Qirui agreed with Liang Shiyi's view, saying: "If we support North Japan in ravaging their people at this time, once their people turn over and become masters, they will definitely hate the Chinese the most." ”

Navy Chief Liu Buyun said that the existence of North Japan can indeed contain Japan: "When we do great things, sacrificing a few people is nothing, not to mention that it is not our people, but the Japanese who deserve to be ravaged." ”

Several people discussed a lot, but Song Xiaofei still had to make a decision, he thought for a while: "Mencius once said, the righteous are more helped, and the unrighteous are less helped, and I agree with Foreign Minister Liang's opinion." There are short-term interests and long-term interests, small profits, and the interests of the entire human race. China's current diplomatic strategy is not only to be an influential power, but also to be the leader of this world! Our territory is now so big, if there are no universal values and human rights in the Chinese civilization, our colonies are likely to be used by nationalists, so we must engage in great diplomacy that exports the values of Chinese civilization! And not with Eli! Indeed, I believe that the Chinese civilization, which has absorbed science and democracy, will never lose to the Japanese, whether it is an open fight or a secret fight! ”

Feng Guozhang said: "In any case, you can't let Japan unify Northern Japan, right? We've got to help with the volunteers, right? ”

Song Xiaofei shook his head and said: "For such an evil regime as the Northern Japanese Kunitakami Enmin, I don't think it's worth sacrificing a Chinese soldier. Didn't the Japanese call out internationally for the Chinese to support the Bolshevik state? Okay, then we'll go down the slope and occupy Northern Japan, merge it with Kyushu, and hand it over to my son and Tsunemiya Masako. ”

Feng Guozhang said: "This is very good, now Okuma Shigenobu and the Japanese emperor will steal chickens instead of eating rice!" I can personally lead the Second Army to take Sapporo and occupy Northern Japan! ”

Army Chief Duan Qirui said: "Northern Japan is a country with a military and political integration, with more than one million soldiers, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to take, right?" ”

"These armies of theirs are paper tigers! There weren't many people who were truly loyal to the people of Tangami. Song Xiaofei laughed and said: "According to our intelligence, Tangami Enmin is now cleaning up the old forces of Tangami Zecheng, and the senior commanders of the Korean troops, such as the chief of the general staff and the minister of the people's armed forces of North Japan, have been replaced from beginning to end, and their ranks have also risen and fallen like skipping ropes. I heard that even Hirohide Tagami, the vice marshal of the Northern Japanese People's Army, who had just helped Tonzin Tangami kill Tanakami Sawasei, was declared a counter-revolutionary by Tonzin Tangami and was immediately executed! In the name of sending reinforcements to support Northern Japan, we have sent 100,000 troops to Sapporo, and we believe that we will soon be able to take North Japan. By taking North Japan, China's diplomacy will become the great diplomacy of Chinese civilization and values in the future! (To be continued......)
