When he said this, Yan Shao had a rare straight look, and looking at Yan Shao's expression, Song Jiaoren was slightly stunned, and then felt that something was not very good to answer.

If he had to say it, Song Jiaoren was still inclined to believe it. After all, he was a little disheartened in the first place, and even didn't mention the word 'republic' much in the last two years. One of the biggest reasons is Yan Shao, it is precisely because of Yan Shao's existence and Yan Shao's nationalism that China continues to grow stronger, so that Song Jiaoren's republic seems to have no market, so he is so disheartened.

Similarly, judging from past experience, although Yan Shao does not seem to be a great strategy on the surface, his long-term vision is rare.

At least in many things in the past, Yan Shao has proven himself right, but those who oppose it have almost all become the wrong party.

Just like the Battle of Shandong, many people once expressed opposition, believing that Japan should not be at war for the sake of Qingdao Fortress. If the war is lost, won't China become a defeated country again?

At that time, Song Jiaoren was still far away in Japan, although he was still a member of the Kuomintang at that time, and his relationship with Sun Yat-sen was also close, and he was a supporter of Sun Yat-sen. That is, Yan Shao and the opponents of the National Socialist Party, but from the position of the Chinese, Song Jiaoren did not want to see Yan Shao send troops to Shandong.

After all, if it really fails, then it is not only Yan Shao who will suffer in the end, but the whole of China...

Who would have thought. Just when everyone thought that Japan would win in the end, China was the first to win at Longkou Bay. The Japanese Combined Fleet, which could be said to be the largest naval fleet in Asia at the time, was severely damaged, and more than half of the fleet's capital ships were lost. The Wehrmacht, on the other hand, can be said to have been unscathed.

It can be said that this battle has become one of the very few classic battles in the history of the navy in which a few people have won more. At the same time, it is also one of the examples of new weapons that completely changed the tide of battle after they were put into the battlefield.

It is precisely for this reason that after the end of the Shandong Campaign, the naval schools of various countries even included the Battle of Longkou Bay in their textbooks. The defense of submarines by the navies of various countries has also reached an unprecedented level.

The subsequent accession to the Entente and the sending of expeditionary forces to Europe were many opponents in China. In their opinion. China is still just a country that seems to be relatively large, but in fact its own strength is extremely weak, and it has no qualifications at all. Nor did they have the strength to intervene in this war between the great powers.

What's more, the great powers have bullied China for so many years, and it is absolutely impossible to say that no one hates it so much. Now it is hard for the great powers to fight among themselves, and they are killing each other. At this time, I don't watch the excitement from the sidelines. It seems that I am too sorry for myself. There are even some people who think that Yan Shao's self-confidence has completely swelled just because of the victory in the Shandong Campaign, and even thinks that with a single Shandong Campaign, China already has the strength to compete with the great powers, thinking that they can participate in this game between the great powers.

However, Song Jiaoren later learned that the reason why Yan Shao sent troops to Europe was to show China's strength. Gain the respect of the Great Powers. On the other hand, for those oil fields in the Middle East, those things that are really valuable...

As the Minister of Integrity Department. Of course, Song Jiaoren knew a lot of things, and therefore understood the importance of those oil fields in the Middle East...

In his opinion, if it is really possible to send troops to Europe through guò in exchange for oil fields in the Middle East, it is definitely very suitable.

It was proved afterwards that Yan Shao's move not only brought China the equivalent of several provinces of land, but also brought a lot of potentially valuable resources—————— naturally, these are never told to others, in the eyes of outsiders, what China got is just a very barren colony, if it were not for the later events, I am afraid that there will even be many people who regard China as fools.

In fact, when Yan Shao put forward this condition, some people already thought so. There are even many people who laugh at Yan Shao, who have paid so much, but what he got is just a wasteland.

Naturally, when that land produces oil in the future, those people will naturally understand Yan Shao's good intentions at the beginning—————— especially when they find out that the land that Yan Shao wants is all oil-producing areas.

——————————————————————————

If the first two things were not very popular in China, then the fact that the Wehrmacht went north to Russia completely aroused the opposition of many people.

After all, the first two things, the former can also be said to be to defend the country, and the latter can also be said to win international status, and at the same time reduce some of the unequal treaties signed with the great powers in the past.

What's more, even if it is wasteland, there are some benefits, not to mention that the top of the government almost knows the inside story.

But sending troops to Russia would...

It's not that those people don't know the benefits of sending troops to Russia, but because they are more aware of the risks that come with sending troops to Russia. After all, Russia was once the most powerful country in the world, and the risks posed by sending troops to Russia are something that no one can afford not to think twice.

It's easy to say if you rob while it's hot, but what if you steal chickens and rice?

If that's the case, then retaliation from the polar bear is something that anyone should be concerned about. Especially considering the polar bear's greedy personality that can't allow itself to suffer...

What's more, Yan Shao's purpose that time was too whimsical, and he actually wanted to take advantage of the polar bear's weakness to directly eat two-thirds of the territory on its body in one bite.

Even just by looking at the map, you know how difficult it can be. If one of them didn't get it right, there would not even be a need for polar bears to retaliate, but it would be a terrible loss for the Nationalist government to let the hundreds of thousands of Wehrmacht troops sent out have no place to die.

However, after that. But it was a jaw to almost everyone.

Under Yan Shao's command, the Wehrmacht was not completely wiped out in cold Siberia, but because of Russia's own weakness. Succeeded in taking two-thirds of its territory from Russia at a very small cost.

Considering China's original national strength, as well as today's technological level and transportation and communication constraints, this is undoubtedly a miracle.

Of course, this has also brought great success to China, at least China has directly become a country with a land area of just over 10 million square kilometers, which has tripled. This is not something that is possible in any ordinary country...

It's not something that ordinary people can do, but there is no doubt that Yan Shao has done it.

In just seven years. Yan Shao has allowed China to grow from a country that was bullied by foreign powers to the point it is today. It is precisely for this reason that when Yan Shaotong guò broadcasted to the world, he gave himself twenty years. When you can make China stronger. Even Song Jiaoren himself believed Yan Shao's words a little.

I believe that Yan Shao will be able to do it...

Therefore, when Song Jiaoren heard Yan Shao's words, he really didn't know how to answer. Say you don't believe it? That's obviously impossible, but if you believe it...

————————————————————————

Seeing that the expression on Song Jiaoren's face seemed to be a little tangled, Yan Shao smiled a little helplessly, but he still looked at Song Jiaoren with a smile. "Anyway, Blunt Chu, you should trust me. I can't say I've been a saint over the years, but I have done something very big. I'm not too authoritarian, am I? Besides, we've known each other for years, do you think I look like someone who wants to be an emperor? ”

Song Jiaoren thought about it in his heart, and then shook his head slightly.

He also had to admit that at least in his memory, Yan Shao never expressed the idea of wanting to be an emperor. Of course, no one knows what Yan Shao's true thoughts are, but at least now Song Jiaoren really doesn't see anything...

"Isn't that the end..."Looking at Song Jiaoren's expression, Yan Shao laughed heartily. What's more, you don't want to think about it, my purpose is to make this country stronger, if it is really because of my relationship, this country has become chaotic and missed the opportunity to become stronger, then wouldn't all the responsibility be on me? What's more, as you often say, there is no need for an emperor in China today..."

"So, there's absolutely no way I'm going to make this country a family..."

"Stay, Dull Chu, stay and continue to help me and help the country."

"It's not just me who needs you, the country needs you too..."

Hearing Yan Shao say this, Song Jiaoren's expression shook slightly.

Not to mention anything else, first of all, Yan Shao's previous remarks still had some impact on Song Jiaoren. What's more, just like Yan Shao said, Yan Shao just refused to talk about the presidential term on the radio, in fact, everything is the same as before, what should I do, the president is still elected by election, not for life.

If the whole country supports Yan Shao, then Yan Shao can naturally continue to be his president. If the people of the country don't support him, then he should step down, it's that simple, and it doesn't seem to be any different from the past...

————————————————————————

Seeing that Song Jiaoren seemed to be a little shaken, Yan Shao smiled slightly, and then continued to speak. "In addition, I am now planning a big plan, I am afraid that it will involve a lot of money and many other things, if there is no suitable person to help supervise, it is difficult to say whether there will be a lot of rats in the end, and the taxes that the people have worked so hard to pay will be moved to their own homes..."

"You shouldn't want to hope that after so many years of hard work, you can create a relatively clean environment that has come out of zào, and because of this, it will disappear overnight..."

Saying this, Yan Shao's smile became a little sinister.

Because he knew very well that since Song Jiaoren was a little desperate for his own republic or something, he put all his hopes on clean government. I think that if we can do a good job of clean government, then it may not be worse than the system.

And that's exactly what happened. After all, whether a government is good or not, the system is important, but the integrity of the government itself is also the same. If it's a corrupt government. No matter how good the system is, it doesn't work. This has been proven by many countries in later generations.

"Big plans? What is the plan? Song Jiaoren did not directly answer Yan Shao's question, but asked rhetorically.

"I'm sorry," Yan Shao said with a smile. It's a very important plan, and only within the government, and only at the top can know the details, so if you insist on resigning from your position, then you lose the qualification and you can't know the details..."

It's been many years. For many years, Song Jiaoren didn't have the urge to pick up his fist and hit others in the face. But at this moment, looking at the sinister smile on Yan Shao's face, I don't know why Song Jiaoren suddenly had such an impulse.

But it's just an impulse. Song Jiaoren himself is not a person who can't restrain himself. It's just that let him retract his resignation, which is also something that needs to be considered after all.

On the other hand, Yan Shao simply stood in front of Song Jiaoren and waited quietly.

After waiting for a while. Seems to have figured it out. Song Jiaoren nodded.

"Okay, I'm willing to take my resignation back."

Hearing Song Jiaoren say this, Yan Shao's face also showed a little smile.

He didn't doubt that Song Jiaoren would lie to himself at all, because he knew that Song Jiaoren was not such a person—————— at least he would never choose to deceive himself for such a trivial matter.

Therefore, Yan Shao simply told Song Jiaoren the details.

"It's actually very simple, you should know the five-year plan formulated by the government..."

"I know..."Song Jiaoren nodded slightly.

The Five-Year Plan can be said to be a miracle in China's modern history, and it can even be said to be a miracle in the world's industrial history. It is with this five-year plan. Only in a very short period of time can the government make great breakthroughs in industry and other fields. Even to the point where it can go hand in hand with the great powers.

Now that the first five-year plan has been over for some time, the second five-year plan has been launched and is now underway.

It is conceivable that if the five-year plan is also successful, what kind of leap will China's industrial strength have...

————————————————————————

Seeing that Song Jiaoren seemed to understand, Yan Shao also nodded slightly.

"That's right, it's this second five-year plan..."

"However, hasn't the second five-year plan already been formulated, and where did the big plan come from?"

Looking at Yan Shao, Song Jiaoren was slightly puzzled.

In fact, the Second Five-Year Plan was drawn up one year before the end of the First Five-Year Plan. After all, this kind of thing can't wait until the previous one is over, and then make it on an ad hoc basis.

In that case, it would have been too time-consuming, and the first five-year plan was put into practice, but in fact it was rushed into action, and many of it was added to the plan after only a general consideration—————— and the national government had not been established at that time, and there was no way to spare much time to formulate a plan in this regard.

It's just that because Yan Shao's pockets are full of drums, he doesn't build much about it. With sufficient financial resources and national support, these projects have also progressed very smoothly.

But this time is different, the last time it was rushed on the horse, but this time it must not be like this. After all, now is not the time to be poor and white, it's like a house.

What is the first thing to do when building a house? It's the first thing to have a piece of land of your own!

This was the case with the first project, which in a way was the land of the house. Although there are many requirements for the land to build a house, such as soil quality, or the environment, etc., in general, there are not many requirements.

Basically, as long as there is and can support subsequent development, it is fine.

Of course, if there are more requirements, such as future traffic or the environment, then it is better to talk about it.

The second step is not simple, because it has a lot to do with your requirements for the house. It can be said that if the first step is just to buy a piece of land, then the second step is to lay the foundation, which is to extend the land you bought, etc., which determines many things that follow.

It also determines the planning for the future, and it is absolutely impossible to act in a hurry...

After all, the matter of broadcasting was not long ago, and the second five-year plan had been going on for some time, so it was naturally impossible for Song Jiaoren not to understand the contents. What's more, as a national project, Song Jiaoren and his Ministry of Integrity also need to monitor it to avoid corruption...

"Yes" Hearing Song Jiaoren's words, Yan Shao bowed slightly. "But have you forgotten that the plan we made was actually based on the original land, and now we have twice the size of the country? In that case, don't you think that the original plan is a bit out of place? ”

"Most importantly, in order to consolidate our rule in the new territory, it is also necessary to invest in and develop it, so..."

So what? Song Jiaoren didn't seem to need to ask anymore.

Seeing that Song Jiaoren seemed to understand, Yan Shao patted him on the shoulder. "What's more, now that the war is over, we can continue to develop with peace of mind, and what China will usher in next will be an era of great development, in which both you and I are indispensable........."
