Seeing the strength of the Red Police, Chamberlain finally reluctantly admitted that the growth of a new force in the South Pacific region was unstoppable. As the former overlord of the region, what the British Empire could and had to do was to get as much benefit as possible, and at the same time make friends with this powerful power, or even form an alliance.

With such thoughts, Chamberlain finally ended his life with Zhong Yi and sat down at the negotiating table seriously. Convincing the hawks at home, Chamberlain could not do it, but his idea was endorsed by Prime Minister Baldwin. The Red Police, for their part, has begun to release British prisoners of war one after another, and this has received great repercussions in Britain.

The call for "let the children go home" is getting louder and louder among the civilians, "Australia is a place of exile, and we can't let the excellent children of Britain die for that barren land!" "Ideas like this have been well received by all sectors of the British community, and the media has widely publicized the humane treatment of returning soldiers in Australia, and their food is even better than that of the domestic barracks." The armies occupying Australia were not barbarians, they were members of the civilized world, they provided the best food to the prisoners of war, and it was our children who benefited! Oh! How many people in the UK can eat grilled kangaroo steak and black abalone every day? "The person who wrote this article is definitely a foodie.

"Except for the difference in skin color, they are our kind, and they have no ill will towards the British Empire!" The Guardian, the UK's most influential newspaper, summed it up as above.

In addition to the military department, except for the Royal Navy, the whole of Britain began to support peace talks. This forced Prime Minister Baldwin and his cabinet to seriously consider making concessions in the negotiations, and even the Labour Party guys began to petition for the people! They were the ones who had previously strongly demanded to continue sending troops.

The support of the domestic people made Chamberlain firm in his judgment, so the previous tension at the negotiating table was changed, and the friendship was like a reception at the Foreign Ministry.

Release prisoners of war. Return of the seized warship. Australians are free to choose where to stay and to protect their private property. For a certain period of time, the economic agreements signed by the Commonwealth of Australia are recognized and renewed. Recognize the King as the supreme ruler and retain the status of a Commonwealth state. By accepting the above five articles, Britain will not interfere in the change of dominance on the Australian mainland.

This is the final card of the negotiations shown by the British side. Ye Zhiqiu, the military representative of the Red Police who was in charge of the negotiations, looked at Zhong Yi and nodded. By or less than the first negotiations, the British had made a lot of concessions, and at first they put forward many unacceptable conditions, such as the retention of the Federal District and the purchase of Australian land by the Red Guard at huge expense.

Zhong Yi smiled and shook his head gently, almost? It's a lot worse! At least that Article 5 is absolutely unacceptable, retaining the status of a Commonwealth state? Acknowledging that the King of England is the Emperor? So what are we still playing? Ye Zhiqiu is an honest man, he thinks he is an excellent chief of staff, but he is by no means a qualified diplomat. This kind of diplomatic negotiation is a game of asking for a sky-high price, sitting on the ground and paying back the money, plus shamelessness and fooling.

Comrade Commander flicked the sleeves of his forearm upward, and this action made Chamberlain frown. "Neville, uh, I'm very sorry, this is not a private gathering of friends, I have to call you Your Excellency Chamberlain, and I am glad to know that we have a lot of consensus." The same squint returned a typical diplomatic smile from Chamberlain, Zhong Yi rolled up his sleeves again, his bare elbow leaned on the table, and stretched out his index finger, "But, first, we don't agree to return the Mediterranean Fleet unconditionally, uh, it's those two battleships, you can choose to buy or exchange." Second," he stretched out his middle finger and ticked slightly, "Your Excellency the Chancellor of the Exchequer, all economic agreements between the federal government and your country must be nullified." Seeing that Chamberlain was a little anxious, Zhong Yi waved his hand, "Your Excellency, you don't have to worry about this, I believe that with this cooperation, the exchanges between our two countries will be closer and deeper." In terms of economic agreements, we can continue to sign according to the previous standards, but ...... It must be signed by officials from your country and us, the Han Empire. ”

Hearing Zhong Yi's last words, Chamberlain's face suddenly turned red - angry. There is still a consensus of P, isn't this just a rejection of all five?

"Your Excellency, as a friend, I don't want you to take the British Empire's negotiation requirements so seriously, I reiterate once again, these five points are the bottom line for the Empire to continue negotiations with you, and they cannot be changed!" With a wave of his hand, he stopped the small commotion of his own personnel, and Chamberlain's standard British face became more serious.

In the face of Chamberlain's almost ultimatum-like words, Zhong Yi became even more arrogant, without a single explanation, just spread his hands and shook his head rather Western-style pouting.

“FUCK！” Chamberlain, an absolute British gentleman, couldn't help but complain secretly, "You Oriental learn what Western expressions, even if you recognize that Britain is unable to send troops, you recognize that your army is strong, but after all, we are the British Empire, you kid is young, you have to give us old men some face!" ”

"Your Excellency, I think ......"

"Well, Neville, I've been talking for a long time, gentlemen are tired, the Governor's House has already prepared the Chardonnay of the Hunter's Valley Winery, I don't think you can drink it very often even in England, and the golden kangaroo steak, the delicious Australian black abalone and the lobster, oh, I can't control my cravings, haha, gentlemen, let's go and taste those good food and wine together." Interrupting Chamberlain's words, seeing that the old man wanted to continue to say something, Zhong Yi immediately stood up and walked around the table, "Oh! Dear Neville, work isn't something that can be done in a day, is it? Let's go have a drink together, aren't you feeling hungry??

It only takes a few seconds to go-for-tat to the point of hooking shoulders and backs, this is a politician, and Comrade Commander feels that he is too talented in this area.

We Chinese people believe that real negotiations are never completed at the negotiation table, especially between countries, and every diplomat must save the face of his country without principle, even if he does not talk about what he wants to talk about and does not do what he wants to do. The face of the British Empire, which has dominated the world for two centuries, is not so easy to fall. Zhong Yi did not plan to negotiate a collapse with Britain, "at least not before the outbreak of World War II." “
