If at the beginning, the Palace of Versailles was in an uproar, then after Zhang Yingze showed that videotape, the entire Palace of Versailles was silent...

Looking at the sound playing in front of him, the delegates sitting in the room could hardly imagine that such a criminal thing could happen in this world. However, it is not surprising that almost all of the people who can sit here are high-level officials from various countries, and they usually need to give orders from above, and where is their turn to do such dirty things, they are naturally a little unaccustomed to what happens in the videotape.

Especially for some representatives who are not even politicians, the content in the tape is too exciting. After a while, there was even a slight vomiting sound in the room, as if someone couldn't help but gag because of the content of the tape.

"Mr. Zhang, may I ask what these are..."Stop the shock in your heart, and that faint, nauseous feeling, Vice Prime Minister of the French government, Alexander? Millerand asked.

Relations between China and France have always been very good, and there are no obvious conflicts of interest in the Far East. At least the French government feels that the Chinese will never do it with themselves until they solve the problems of Japan, Britain and the United States, plus the above three countries and the Netherlands and other countries are by no means easy to solve, and after the First World War, France does need help from the outside world to restore its strength.

Therefore, after China sent an expeditionary force to fight in Europe, France has been working to strengthen ties with China. This was especially true after the end of the First World War. Not surprising either. After the end of World War I, with the defeat of Germany, Russia was replaced by Soviet Russia. France no longer had the power to restrain it on the European continent, and the contradictions between France and Britain became apparent at this time.

Although because the war had just ended, neither Britain nor France wanted to have another war, and it was basically unlikely that the war would break out again in a short period of time. But in the event of a rainy day, the French always hope to find some powerful allies first.

And there are certain contradictions with Britain, at least the contradictions are definitely greater than themselves, and at the same time there are Chinese with great strength. Apparently a good target―――――― of course, China took advantage of the fire against Russia and took two-thirds of its territory from the Russians in one fell swoop. The French were not very happy about being the 'winners of life' on a par with the United States in this war, but compared to the most unhappy of the British, it seemed like nothing at all.

So when Japan asked for such a meeting to be held at the Palace of Versailles. The French are actually reluctant to mix.

It's just that the British and Americans came forward. The French are also not easy to refuse. And, as the British say, Paris is indeed the best place to hold such an event. Not to mention, the Treaty of Versailles has just been signed, and although people like Yan Shao have already returned to their respective countries, there are still many high-level people still stranded in France. For such a memorial to the Korean War, Paris would be more appropriate than Tokyo or Beijing.

For the latter two, it is already very difficult to gather enough people. Where is it so convenient as here in France...

However, in order not to provoke China, or affect the relationship between China and France. The 'Tiger of France', that is, the current Prime Minister of France, Clemenceau, did not come forward. But by Deputy Prime Minister Alexander? Millerand stepped in...

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Not just Alexander? Millerand, the representative of other countries in the room, was shocked by what was in the tape, but also wanted to be confirmed from Zhang Yingze's mouth.

Standing on the podium, Zhang Yingze nodded while showing a sarcastic smile.

"That's right, it's true, this video was obtained by our country by accident, and it can fully prove the oppression of the Korean people by the Japanese government, as well as the massacre..."

Of course, it is true, but it is not obtained by chance, but is one of the many materials obtained by the Special Affairs Bureau in North Korea. It should be noted that the North Korean people slaughtered in the tape are definitely not ordinary people, well, or at least not so clean...

As mentioned earlier, although Japan has annexed Korea, it has not treated too many Koreans very well. Especially when this kind of dominance is not very secure, the only ones that can be slightly stronger are cities like Seoul or Pyongyang, which can be slightly stronger...

Therefore, for the locals of North Korea, the government of the Kuomintang is like a savior.

Especially after the Wehrmacht invaded Korea, countless locals helped the Wehrmacht, which was one of the reasons why they could march so fast at that time. The Japanese naturally hate these 'Belt and Road Party' Japanese people, but there is no better way.

However, the 33rd Army and the 17th Army were then surrounded, and the tide of the battle took a sharp turn. Naturally, the Japanese will be able to find a way to make these leading parties pay the price.

The video that Zhang Yingze just took out was recorded after the siege of the 17th Army, when the Japanese soldiers brutally abused a group of locals who had helped the Wehrmacht...

Naturally, this kind of thing must not be made public, so after the tape was filmed, it was sealed. But then he fell into the hands of the Special Affairs Bureau, and was treated like a baby...

This time, after learning that the Japanese were planning to find fault with this matter, the Special Affairs Bureau quickly tried to find a way to send the copies of these materials to France as quickly as possible, along with some of the originals.

Naturally, at this time, it will definitely not be possible to send it by boat, after all, China and France are thousands of miles apart, if you really want to send it by boat, even if it is the fastest ship, it is impossible to send it without a month...

Therefore, Yan Shao used airplanes, which has been used since its appearance. It is a new means of transportation that has always been known for its high speeds. Naturally, the speed of airplane delivery is very fast, but there are two things that are more troublesome. One is the range, the other is that the plane has to pass through the airspace of Soviet Russia and Germany...

Good thing about the range. It can be solved by rotating multiple aircraft. As for the issue of territorial airspace, although the relationship between the Kuomintang and Soviet Russia only seems to be relatively good on the surface, if it is only allowed to pass through the airspace of Soviet Russia, I believe that Soviet Russia will definitely not have any opinions, after all, at this time, Soviet Russia still has a lot of places to rely on China, especially when the intervention army is about to retreat, and Soviet Russia urgently needs someone to support its recovery plan...

As for Germany, it's even simpler. Leaving aside the fact that Germany had already been defeated, Germany could not have been embarrassed in this matter by virtue of the good relations between China and Germany alone. Therefore it is convenient, too. Although the time was somewhat tight, before the meeting, the materials specially prepared by the Special Affairs Bureau were sent to Zhang Yingze.

When I saw these materials for the first time, it wasn't just Zhang Yingze himself. Even many in the Chinese embassy in France were taken aback. I can't imagine that the Japanese would do such a thing―――――― although there have been things such as the 'Lushun Massacre' in China, but the fact is that after the Lushun Massacre, because of the cold attitude of various countries, Japan has tried to justify itself, that is, to wash its own ground.

Mutsu Munemitsu personally went to the United States to issue a statement to the effect that all the Qing soldiers killed were fleeing Qing soldiers who had taken off their military uniforms, that the massacre was an act of revenge for the Japanese prisoners who had been killed in the previous battle of Tuchengzi, and that the 355 Qing soldiers captured in Lushun were now being treated very well in Japan. and bribing media outlets such as the Central News Agency. Attack Time Magazine, which was the first to report on the incident. After that, he sent a letter of defense to the ministers of various countries in Japan, informing them: "As for the facts that occurred at the time of the occupation of Arthur Pass, the reputation of our army has been ruined by misinformation. And it makes foreigners often feel unhappy, which is very bad for me. For this reason, a defence to the above-mentioned misinformation was drafted. ”

Naturally, this move usually has no effect, and what happened back then was too far away for Zhang Yingze and them. In addition, in the past, the Japanese diplomats that Zhang Yingze came into contact with, no matter what happened in private, at least on the surface, they were still polite, so it was naturally difficult to believe this kind of thing...

However, after seeing the evidence sent from China, the attitude of Zhang Yingze and others changed...

Things seem to be more complicated than they think...

――――――――――――――――――――――――

As Zhang Yingze nodded and admitted, there was an uproar in the room again.

And looking at the film that is still going on behind Zhang Yingze, as well as the content revealed in it, many people's expressions when they look at Kuroda who is excited on the side also inexplicably become weird.

As has been said, no matter how dirty the colonial powers have been. At least now they are constantly whitewashing their past, making themselves a 'civilized' nation―――――― even if they are based on the plundering of countless colonies...

It is precisely because of this that it is difficult for them to accept the scene in front of them.

On the other hand, after noticing the strange gaze around him, Kuroda was excited. "This can't be, you must have faked this! It is simply impossible for the soldiers of our country to do such a heinous thing! ”

It's no wonder that Kuroda is so excited, after all, if such a crime is held on Japan's head, things will be in trouble. During the First Sino-Japanese War, the reason why Japan gave up many interests in the later stage of the war was of course because of the intervention of the three countries to return Liao, but there was also another reason, that is, the stigma caused by the Lushun massacre.

Because of the sensational effect of the Lushun massacre, even if it was obtained in a sensational way, it created a tendency to sympathize with China in various countries, which also caused Japan to give up many of the things that had been won by the hard war, especially the Liaodong Peninsula.

The reason why the Japanese government put the Pyongyang affair in Versailles for discussion is that it does not want to emulate what happened in those days. As long as China is accused of massacre, even if China wins against Japan in Korea, it will eventually have to give up many things because of the pressure of public opinion.

And as long as China is labeled with such a hat, it will naturally alienate other countries from China, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone for Japan...

Who would have thought...

Come to think of it. Looking at the materials that Zhang Yingze had just distributed, and the video that was still playing behind him, Kuroda couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Although he prefers to believe that these are all forgeries made by the Chinese. But on the other hand, he also suspected that the soldiers of his country might have actually done something like this. Although Kuroda has never been on the battlefield, he knows his country's soldiers very well, and he knows the virtues of his country's brainless guys...

In other words, in Kuroda's view, it is entirely possible that those soldiers in his own country will do such a thing...

Yet whether it is faith or unbelief. At this time, Kuroda could only choose not to admit it.

"As long as you don't admit it, insist that all these things are fakes, there is no evidence. Even if it's true..."

"Forgery?"

Just when Kuroda thought so, Zhang Yingze, who was standing on the podium, smiled slightly, then took out something similar to a list from his hand, and then raised his voice to everyone in the audience. "Shingo Saburo. Twenty-one years old. Born in Hokkaido, he joined the army in 1917 A.D., came from a family of fishermen, and is currently the 7th Division of the Japanese Army..."

"Eiji Yamashita, twenty-two years old, also from Hokkaido, enlisted in the army in 1916, and is currently the Seventh Division of the Japanese Army..."

"Kurosawa..."

on the podium. Zhang Yingze read the names one by one according to the list in his hand. The malice in the smile is becoming more and more obvious.

At the beginning, everyone in the venue still didn't quite understand what Zhang Yingze was doing, but after Zhang Yingze read out all the names, they gradually reacted.

What Zhang Yingze read was actually the names of the 'protagonists' in the film...

And then Zhang Yingze's speech seems to have confirmed their conjecture...

"The above-mentioned people whose names I just read are the identities of the Japanese soldiers in the film just now, if everyone here doubts the identities of these people, they can directly launch an investigation to find out the truth..." At present, according to the information I have received, two people have become prisoners of our army on the Korean battlefield, so there is no need for your country and your government to worry about the possibility that we will use these soldiers to make false decisions..."

As he spoke, Zhang Yingze laughed a little cheerfully, but both Kuroda and the representatives of the countries in the venue knew very well what Zhang Yingze said had another meaning.

That is, at present, two of these Japanese soldiers are already in the hands of the Guoshe government, even if the Japanese government does something to the remaining soldiers, such as claiming that this part of the people does not exist at all, it is impossible for Zhang Yingze to fabricate it completely...

And after hearing Zhang Yingze's words, Kuroda was annoyed at the same time, but his heart was also cold.

Because he can already be sure that such a thing has happened in North Korea. Although for him, the death of some North Koreans is not a big deal at all, but on this occasion, this kind of thing is made public in public, and the matter is...

However, Kuroda also knows that even if the other party really comes up with genuine evidence, it is absolutely impossible to admit it now, so he quickly denied Zhang Yingze's words, insisting that no such thing happened, all of them were fabricated by the Chinese government, and even if there were, it could only be done by Chinese, and the cruel soldiers in the film were made by Chinese soldiers wearing Japanese uniforms disguised as Japanese soldiers...

Later, Kuroda returned to talking about Pyongyang, saying that the words of the country that had done such a terrible thing in Pyongyang could not be believed at all...

However, Zhang Yingze then retorted that what happened in Pyongyang was nothing more than a mistake caused by the Wehrmacht during the attack on Pyongyang, and that the army had caused certain casualties to civilians when attacking a city.

On the contrary, what the Japanese did in Korea is clearly shown in the film.

And...

"There are not a few residents of various countries living in North Korea, including cities like Pyongyang, and there are even thousands of churches, so don't countries really have any idea about what Japan is doing in North Korea?"

Although there are not as many people in North Korea as there are in China, how can other countries not know what is happening in North Korea? It's just that most of what those people in North Korea see are Japanese bullying North Koreans, and this kind of thing has never been seen before...

――――――――――――――――――――――

Although the original purpose of the Japanese was to ruthlessly blacken China through the Pyongyang affair, they also used the pressure of public opinion to make China make concessions. And at the beginning, the Japanese did almost achieve their goal, after all, during the bombing of Pyongyang, Pyongyang residents were killed and injured countless times, but this is enough to give the international community the impression that China is very brutal...

However, the 'evidence' presented by Zhang Yingze later reversed this qiē...

In the end, the matter was naturally closed, and the whole meeting failed to talk about any results, but the evidence presented by Zhang Yingze quickly caused a sensation in France and quickly spread to the world.

It's not surprising that the matter in Pyongyang, after all, is just some rumors, and no one has actually seen it with their own eyes, but Zhang Yingze's side is different. Not only is there a lot of evidence such as photos and letters, but there is even a video material out there, which is more likely to cause a sensation and can almost be said to be obvious at a glance...

Although the Japanese really wanted to start a war of public opinion, this time they only ended up with a chicken-and-egg fight. (To be continued......)
