Chapter 278: Talking about conditions
From the very beginning, the negotiations between Nanhua and Japan have entered a state of intense intensity, and Japanese Foreign Minister Ichiro Honno has vigorously counted the vicious deeds of Nanhua since the attack on Japan.
There was sadness and anger in Ichiro Honno's tone, which may be the legendary sadness and anger, especially when he said that Cabinet Minister Goto Shinpei and Justice Minister Matsumuro were killed by the bombing, his face was even more red, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat.
As a member of the cabinet, although there are many disputes and filth, but now that he has been killed by Nanhuaguo, it is inevitable that he will feel empathy, since Nanhuaguo can bomb any place in Tokyo at will, it is inevitable that one day he and others will be sent to heaven by Nanhuaguo's bombs.
Therefore, Ichiro Honno's above words may not be without the fear of being scared and venting his feelings in it, otherwise as a foreign minister, speaking in such a tone in negotiations would damage the face of a diplomat and politician.
Ichiro Honno yelled somewhere, but Qian Wenxing and Mu Sheng, who were sitting opposite, didn't even change their faces, and still maintained that calm and calm expression.
Seeing Ichiro Honno staring at himself fiercely after finishing speaking, Qian Wenxing didn't stand up, but sat down and said directly: "If what Mr. Ichiro Honno just said is true, then I can only say that it is our pride." ”
Listening to Qian Wenxing's words, the members of the Japanese delegation, including Masaki Terauchi, Ichiro Honno, and Hideo Kodama all widened their eyes, and then they all showed angry expressions.
They don't know how the prime minister of South China on the other side would say such a thing.
Before waiting for the Japanese side to react, Qian Wenxing continued: "Please ask the Japanese representatives to clearly recognize the fact that our South China and Japan are now in a state of war, and launching a war to destroy the enemy can only show the bravery and strength of our South China soldiers. ”
"And your so-called sneak attacks, attacks, dead and wounded, are all the results that you Japanese should bear, and war is war."
"I would like to say a few words to you, please recognize the current situation and put yourself in a correct position, is it true that Japan initiated this negotiation to protest to us, and if this is the case, then I think it is not necessary."
Qian Wenxing's words are actually very embarrassing, externally, it was Britain, France, and the United States that took the lead in mediating the Asian war, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is because Japan could not withstand it, and it was at the strong request that the three countries had this mediation team.
Today, as soon as the Japanese came up, they used such a tone, wanting to overwhelm Nanhua in momentum, and they miscalculated.
After this war, Nanhua has cultivated a momentum, not afraid of any enemy's momentum, they believe that as long as there is His Majesty, there is no fear of facing any enemy, the Japanese have now been crippled by Nanhuaguo, there is no power to fight back, Nanhua will not take their intimidation to heart, if spitting can kill, then what do you need artillery.
"Gentlemen, please don't get excited, we should sit down and talk calmly about disputes, and the purpose of our negotiations should be to prevent war, isn't it." French Deputy Foreign Minister Myers stood up and stopped the quarrel between the two sides.
British Deputy Prime Minister and Privy Council Secretary Nick. Clegg also stood up at this time and said: "This negotiation is specially formed by Britain, France and the United States, in order to solve the crisis in the Far East and resolve the disputes that you have only seen. ”
The mouth says one by one, I don't want war, and now Europe is in chaos, is this what you ultimately hope for, listen to Nick. Clegg's words, whether it was Nanhua or the Japanese side, pouted in their hearts.
"Since it is a negotiation, we can put forward our own requirements and opinions, and then discuss together, and finally reach a consensus, this is our biggest goal, isn't it, then please talk about your own opinions."
Nick. As soon as Deputy Prime Minister Clegg finished speaking, Japanese Foreign Minister Ichiro Motono took the lead in standing up and said: "In response to Nanhua's attack on the Japanese Empire, we, the Great Japanese Empire, have made the following demands: First, Nanhua immediately withdraws its troops. Second, it will compensate Japan for its losses, and third, it will announce a formal apology to Japan. ”
Japan mainly put forward these three points, and then there were some detailed issues, and I did not know that the Japanese side would have the confidence to say such conditions for negotiations.
At this time, except for Ichiro Honno standing there and talking without remembering, whether it was the representative of Nanhua or the representative of the Three Kingdoms Mediation Group, they were all looking at Ichiro Honno who was acting like a clown with an idiot look.
Nick. Clegg's forehead is full of black lines, as the leader of the mediation team, he naturally knows a lot about this negotiation, knowing that Japan has no ability to resist now, and has been pressed and beaten by South China, and it is estimated that it will take at least 5 to 10 years to restore its combat strength, and this is still under the condition that no one is making trouble.
He really didn't know that the Japanese had the confidence to make such a request, didn't they know that they were the defeated side, the side that kept shouting for mediation, how could they be idiots now making such a request.
The Delegation of Japan had said its comments. Clegg was also relieved, and it was finally over, and he was all ashamed of the behavior of the Japanese.
"Representative of South China, please give your opinion."
Mu Sheng stood up, straightened his clothes, and picked up a piece of paper from the table, a very white and delicate piece of paper, on which were written a few articles, the handwriting was clear, neatly arranged, and extremely neat. Well, no nonsense, it's printed on A4 paper.
This was given to them by Guo Yu in advance, and the content was not much, but each one was a big deal.
"First, Japan announced its surrender."
As soon as Mu Sheng finished reading this, many people on the Japanese side jumped up directly and shouted loudly: "Impossible, the Great Japanese Empire will not surrender, and we are not defeated, you don't want to be delusional." ”
"We, Japan, will not choose to surrender even if we are the last man to fight."
The Japanese people jumped and shouted, and the scene was a little chaotic for a while.
"Gentlemen, gentlemen, please sit down, maintain discipline in the venue, a negotiator should be a good person, if one party does something that disrupts the discipline of the negotiation, we will suspend the negotiation, or even terminate the negotiation, please pay attention." Nick. Deputy Prime Minister Clegg stood up and said loudly.
From a starting point, the delegations of the three countries are biased towards the Japanese side, but the expression of the Japanese has influenced the perception of the three delegations towards them. Clegg had to stand up and shout.
The venue was quiet again, and Mu Sheng was not affected at all, and continued: "Article 2, abolish the unequal treaties signed between Japan and China, including the Treaty of Nanjing, the Treaty of Shimonoseki, and so on. ”
"Third, return the land occupied by Japan, including Liaodong, Qingdao, Taiwan, the Penghu Islands, the Ryukyus, and other places, and all places that do not belong to the four Japanese islands will be included in the ranks of this negotiation."
"Fourth, transfer the Korean Peninsula to South China."
"Fifth, war reparations."
"Sixth, allow South China to station troops on the main island of Japan to safeguard South China's interests overseas."
"Seventh, as a defeated country, Japan must not develop a navy, and the number of land forces must not exceed the number of maintenance of normal internal security."
"Eighth, South China has the right to participate in Japan's foreign trade and to raise objections to it, and Japan is not allowed to trade anything that is not permitted by South China."
It's too overbearing, it's just an unreasonable request.
"No way, your conditions are just nonsense, and the Great Japanese Empire will definitely not agree to such conditions." Masaki Tsunachi's face turned blue with anger, and he roared loudly.
At that time, how to develop the Sea of Japan, it will be oppressed by the South China State for the rest of its life, and it will never have the strength to turn over, what is the difference between this and the destruction of the country.
Nick. Deputy Prime Minister Clegg's forehead once again popped up with a black line, which really made these two strange countries defeated.
One obviously failed, and even demanded that the other side withdraw troops for compensation, and the other, although he had the upper hand, made super unreasonable demands, such demands are not for negotiation at all, but definitely to fan the flames and prepare to provoke a war.
Look at what kind of demands they have, revoke the unjust treaty on the Japanese side, this is understandable, after all, it was the spoils of war after the victory over the Qing State at that time, and now that it has failed, the other side wants to take it back.
Asking the other side to surrender is not a big problem, and war reparations are also reasonable, and there is nothing wrong with returning the occupied land, even if it asks for Japan-occupied Korea, it can be regarded as war trophies.
If the first few articles are reasonable, then the conditions for stationing troops in Japan, prohibiting Japan from developing its navy, restricting its army, and even controlling Japan's foreign trade are very excessive.
If the South China State is allowed to garrison troops, how can Japan ensure its own security, it may be annexed by the South China State at any time, and it will live in the shadow of the South China Army all the time, and whoever can stand it will be suffocated by the Japanese Congress.
Without a navy, Japan would have lost its external strength and would have to live on small islands.
The right amount of the army, to put it mildly, is it the army, to put it bluntly, is it the police force, although Nanhua did not say the specific number, but it is estimated that it will not be much, and how many people can be needed to maintain domestic security.
Finally, there is the control of foreign trade, Nanhua wants Japan to return to the primitive society, live a self-farming, self-sufficient life, Japan's land is barren, the country's development mainly depends on foreign trade, if there is no foreign trade, Japan will directly become the poorest and most difficult small country, there is no future.
