Chapter 80 080 The Second Strategy of the Celestial Empire
Qi Yiming's original timeline in the Celestial Empire was still inflexible in diplomacy for a period of time in the final analysis, and there may also be factors that the West was embarrassed and angry when it saw the failure of peaceful evolution and asked China for trouble, in short, when Qi Yiming was still angry, he was often indignant at the insults of these hegemonic countries, and he was disappointed in the official position of the Celestial Empire again and again, feeling spineless and incompetent.
The rise of the Celestial Empire in that era is inseparable from the "Taoguang Yanghui and Achievement" in Ping Taizong's political testament, but in essence, China in that era was still isolated, lacking allies, and most of them relied on their own people to work hard. Where other countries are suspicious of danger, they dig into it themselves, but the more this is the case, the more the so-called human rights fighters in the West follow China and fan the flames wherever the footsteps of the Celestial Empire go. The problem of Darfur is evident.
Even so, the cowardly Celestial Empire still survived the most, with the economy taking off, the military strength rising, and the international discourse power increasing.
But now that Qi Yiming has returned to this era, in addition to the Red Police Base he brought back, on some soft levels, it can also prompt the Celestial Empire to harvest more things.
Strategically moving closer to the United States is a major choice. Because they have seen the many phenomena of the development of later generations and summed up a lot of lessons and lessons, some high-level officials could not help but propose to extend the honeymoon period between China and the United States, hide themselves in the ranks of the United States, and create a better international atmosphere for development.
Anyway, if there is no accident in the Soviet Union, it will fall in six years, and if China has a problem standing in line at that time, I am afraid that it will become a group of demons under the magnifying glass of Western white-haired baboons like later generations. Knowing that it is impossible to live forever, it is better to be an underground party for a period of time and hide in the ranks of the enemy. And Qi Yiming's so-called Taoguang Yanghui who travels through the previous timeline is, to put it bluntly, a polite expression that admits to pretend to be his grandson. Because others are not polite to you, you are so obscure, it's not a confession of pretending to be a grandson or something.
In fact, there is no difference between supporting the United States in its stance and the so-called assumption of the responsibilities of a great power by the 586 government thirty years later, which conforms to international norms. China has been going for so long, and it has been shouting for the establishment of a new world order that is more fair and just, and it has always been rejected by Western countries with vested interests, and the small countries that are also pragmatic will not be grateful for China's help in the third world to achieve justice, and they will support China in their positions.
After so many years of crawling and rolling in China, I suddenly discovered: "You guys are all bad, you recognize money and fists, who cares if you are reasonable or unreasonable." ”
As a result, from the late 486 to the 586 era, the establishment of a new world order was rarely seen, and most of them became China's active fulfillment of international obligations, and even later appeared to maintain the post-war order. This can be seen from another angle, in fact, the Celestial Empire finally found that it was useless to challenge the order established by the United States all the time, so it was better to abide by this order.
More critically, the Celestial Empire's strategists found that the current international order was too favorable to China. The United States is in the front, and he is carrying everything, and China is coldly talking in the back, and when the United States is disgraced, he will rush in to make money. Iraq is an example of this, where the Americans have fought for life and death and all of them have cheapened PetroChina and Sinopec.
The Celestial Empire has also become a vested interest, and although its values are still different from those of Western countries, it feels that there is no need for much conflict. Fundamentally, it was the end of 286 and the 386 era that conservatism grew old, and pragmatism eventually took over the mainstream of the country. After the 486 era, the high-level leaders began to have a stronger international vision and more capital, so the more China can go further, the more spacious it will be.
Politically, Qi Yiming belongs to the center-left camp, first of all, he will not accept state capitalism, and second, he will not accept the country's serious leftist tilt or denial of reform and opening up, and he is actually closer to the kind of "humane socialism" that Gorbachev called or a more strict social democracy (a more common political value in the Nordic countries). This concept is basically the Juche thinking of the 586 government, and the reform will never be retreated, and the red flag will never change color.
Letting China replace the Soviet Union as America's next Cold War adversary sounds surging, but it's an idiot to do. The wisdom of the Chinese is much stronger than that of the woolly bear, and there are more ways to bring down the opponent, and it is necessary to pay blood, but there is no need to let yourself pay too much.
So the smart route is what the Celestial Empire needs most right now.
To put it simply, this set of strategies can be described as "a lion cub in wolf's clothing". The lion cub is still very young and weak, not as strong as the big bad wolf, but it can put on a wolf skin and pretend to be a wolf as well, so that the lion cub can hunt with the wolves, get enough prey, and eventually grow up to become a male lion. And when it becomes a male lion, the big bad wolf will not be able to curb the strength of the lion, and it will be the lion who will eventually rule the grassland.
Facts have proved that the United States is not incapable of coexisting with the authoritarian state, and it is just saying what it wants. The Gwangju incident in the previous Chun Doo-hwan government is a case in point, as Singapore, a "family business-like state" ruled by a single family name for a long time, is still an ally of the United States, and Saudi politics is not even progressive.
Therefore, Qi Yiming is still very sure that he will be able to adjust the issue of coexistence between China and the United States. The United States will certainly continue to engage in peaceful evolution, but it is believed that countries that are prepared can use various means to prevent and counterattack.
The United States can happily enjoy the sense of solipsism after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and it is most practical to clean up Saddam Hussein and Kadazo, while China is holding back the bad money by the way. In fact, countries such as the United States are the easiest to get rid of on their own, and at that time it will be time to change the dynasty.
This set of strategies was dedicated to Qi Yiming after gaining the trust of Ping Taizong shortly after crossing over. Because Qi Yiming believes that if China is a strategist in the 20th century, Ping Taizong will definitely be the number one. What reassured Qi Yiming even more was that the old man was quite flexible in his way of dealing with things after repeated ups and downs, and his mind was relatively open-minded.
The top of the party is much more unified now than it has historically been, because everyone already knows what the future holds, and even the more conservative ones can be sure of what the future holds. Bourgeois liberalization must be fought, but it must be done in a flexible way. On the one hand, we must clean up the official downfall, corruption, and the like, and gradually enlighten the political atmosphere. The core issue is to solve the people's living standards and boost the country's economy. After that, the dual means of appeasement and attack are used at the same time to suppress those stunned young people who want to change the color of the country.

The injuries on Qi Yiming's body didn't take long to heal, and it was just a little flesh and skin in the explosion, which was not a fatal thing, but even so, some people still pinched a cold sweat about his adventure abroad, and Qi Yiming had a hunch that there might be fewer opportunities to go abroad in the future.
Fortunately, his main work is in China, and it has not been affected much.
After South Korea's interim government President Kim Hyun-shin announced his resignation and the United States issued a statement welcoming the political self-determination of South Koreans, the riots finally subsided, and although some people still got what they wanted, many people, including Kim Hyun-shin and Yoon Jung-hoon, were still sent to military courts for war crimes, crimes against humanity and other crimes.
To the satisfaction of the Chinese side, after such a big circle, the three defectors were finally repatriated by the newly formed South Korean government, and in addition to the two air force personnel who had no intention of treason but were coerced, the traitor Xiao Tianrun also had to face military justice.
Originally, the Taiwan side was definitely going to make a big jump, but the ability of the Celestial Empire to strike across the sea really frightened the KMT regime, and it actually became trembling and did not make any sound. Qi Yiming hated this group of people, they planned to raid the Chinese mission during the chaos, and they were almost about to succeed, this account Qi Yiming had already kept in his heart, and he was ready to settle it slowly with them.
Secretary of State Scholz said in the aftermath: "As a regional power in East Asia and one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, China and the United States have played a good role in maintaining regional stability. We highly value China's efforts and welcome China's attitude and actions in actively promoting peace and stability, and we hope to strengthen cooperation with China and promote the development of a firm and healthy quasi-alliance relationship. ”
This is also the first time that the United States has officially stated the status of Sino-US relations, which is second only to the relationship of allies as quasi-allies, and China did not give a positive response to this position at the subsequent press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but expressed the hope to enhance friendship with the United States and other countries in the world, and is willing to fulfill its international obligations to maintain peace and stability in the world.
Later, in response to a reporter's question, the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that China had no intention of confronting the Soviet Union, which was China's great neighbor and had selflessly helped China's development, and that China hoped to actively communicate with the Soviet Union to improve Sino-Soviet relations and contribute to the maintenance of peace and stability in the world.
All of a sudden, China's diplomacy became extraordinarily proactive, which made all countries in the world feel bright.
Of course, the part that the countries in the world have noticed the most is China's dazzling military capabilities, and the Sino-Vietnamese war six years ago was quite ugly, but they did not expect that China, which has made great efforts to govern and change, has now gained a valuable sea and air power. The advanced fighter planes developed by China and the shipborne air defense missiles used to shoot down enemy planes have also become a topic of conversation among many military scholars and journalists.
