When Hillary's plane landed at Hongqiao Airport in the middle of the night, the Chinese side sent an official who had previously worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to take charge of the reception, specifically to send Hillary and her entourage to the rooms prepared at the Peninsula Hotel, and did not allow Hillary to go out casually, and all actions must be subject to the arrangements of the Chinese side.

Hillary landed at night, before she had time to see the scenery of Shanghai, she was taken into an Audi A8 by diplomats, and then the car took her directly to the Peninsula Hotel by the river, although Hillary saw only a small number of pedestrians on the way, but through the street lights and other buildings in the city, Hillary realized that the Chinese have now restarted Shanghai's livelihood foundation, which is better than the White House.

There are two door-to-door superior suites in the inner corridor of the Peninsula Hotel on the third floor, and these two suites were arranged for Hillary Clinton and her entourage assistant Edward, and after the Chinese side sent several waitresses to assist the two to check in, they were at their disposal 24 hours a day, and after the arrangements were made, the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs took their leave, and from beginning to end, Hillary did not see a Chinese politician with status and sufficient rights.

In this regard, Hillary did not dare to ask too much, and because of the time difference, she had slept on the plane, so now she does not feel sleepy at all, after taking a shower in the hotel, she sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the street and river outside, here you can not see the Chinese army, nor can you see the airport, yesterday when landing at Hongqiao Airport, Hillary Clinton once observed left and right, but most of the passengers parked at Hongqiao Airport are passenger and cargo planes, there are no military aircraft, only a few Chinese own transport planes parked at Hongqiao Airport.

In fact, Xie Tian's arrangement for the fighters is: The Americans' advanced fighters are parked at the Zhangshujun Airport, and the current Zhangshujun Airport has been expanded with three runways and has a very strong carrying capacity, while China's original self-produced fighters and Russian imported fighters are parked at Shanghai's Pudong Airport, and as for Hongqiao Airport, it is an airport for passenger and cargo planes, and Hillary Clinton has landed here, and it is impossible to see any secrets.

After waiting for several hours, it was not until 8 o'clock in the morning that the service staff brought breakfast, and told Hillary that there would be a car to take them to the Provisional Military Commission at half past eight.

Xie Tian had already accused Barton to clean himself up and put on a decent tunic suit, his current identity is the generally recognized leader and successor in China, which is beyond doubt, and this time, Hillary Clinton is in charge of receiving him alone, and it can also be seen that the attitude of the Provisional Military Commission to let him replace Chairman Han has been very obvious.

Hillary had a detailed understanding of the members of China's Provisional Military Commission before she came, about Patton, she still has a lot of first-hand information, Qin Zhengxuan has been in the military before, and guarding China's strategically significant and important NJ Military Region, it can be seen that his personal ability is not in doubt, the most important thing is that Qin Zhengxuan's record before the outbreak of the zombie virus, and what he did after the outbreak of the zombie virus, can be seen that this person's thinking belongs to the hawks, compared with the previous Chinese leaders, Qin Zhengxuan was far less gentle than them.

For Hillary Clinton, the last thing she wants is that China's leadership falls into the hands of hawks, and China's leaders in the past were all civilian officials, and they were bent on development, and had a tolerant attitude on many international issues and disputes, which made many countries very useful, and the United States was one of them, but if the leaders were really replaced by hawks, then the room for Americans to do so was far less than before.

Before the meeting, Hillary Clinton had been thinking about how to use her eloquence to dominate the conversation and dominate the development direction of the topic, so as to test the real situation in China and the true meaning of China's political axe, so she made countless expectations in her mind, and confidently stepped into the meeting room of the Provisional Military Commission, where only Patton was waiting for her, which made Hillary somewhat unexpected.

"Commander Qin, hello." Hillary shook hands with Barton and said very generously: "It's been a long time since I've heard of your name, and it's my honor to finally have the opportunity to meet you today." ”

At this time, Edward, the assistant who followed Hillary, hurriedly wanted to translate what Hillary said into Chinese, while Xie Tian smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said in Chinese: "You don't need to translate Mrs. Hillary's words to me, you just need to translate my words to her." ”

Edward nodded slightly, in fact, Xie Tian can easily talk to Hillary in English without an interpreter, but this is a meeting between the two countries, which is considered an international occasion, even if his English is good, he must speak the official language of his own country, so Xie Tian left Edward as a mouthpiece.

After inviting Hillary Clinton to take a seat, Xie Tian said: "Mrs. Hillary, from the Obama President Ma a few years ago, to you, the White House seems to be interested in visiting China recently, and now that you have finally come to China, I would like to know what topics you have prepared to discuss with us?" ”

Hillary Clinton smiled slightly and said: "I heard that the reconstruction work in Shanghai is going very well, so we have always wanted to come and see it in person, and learn from China's development experience, and in addition, apologize to the Chinese political axe for our reconnaissance plane that strayed into China's airspace before." ”

"Oh?" Xie Tian smiled: "That reconnaissance plane turned out to be American?" I don't know yet, but it was blown up into a pile of scrap metal, and I just threw it into the Huangpu River. ”

Hillary looked at Xie Tian a little embarrassed, but she didn't expect him to be so generous to this matter, and admitted it as soon as she opened her mouth, and without any explanation, there was no diplomatic procedure or official face-to-face at all, and it seemed that she didn't take this matter seriously at all.

Xie Tian said very calmly: "Since we decided to move from Yanjing to Shanghai, we have integrated all the forces we can to improve Shanghai's defense, we have concentrated almost all the military tanks south of the Yangtze River in Shanghai to defend Shanghai's land routes, in addition, we have also concentrated all our air defense forces to defend Shanghai, the navy should also know, the last time the South Koreans invaded our Shandong Peninsula, our submarine sank the opponent's four warships, and now to Shanghai, We are a three-in-one defense of the sea, land, and air, so we will do our best to strangle and then find out any move that may pose a threat to Shanghai, not to mention the reconnaissance planes entering China's airspace, even if a passenger plane from another country enters our airspace without our permission, we will also mercilessly shoot it down! ”

"Really hawkish" Hillary Clinton looked at Patton, whose expression was extremely calm but very domineering, and felt a little worried in her heart, such a hawkish figure in power is indeed not a good thing for the United States.

Hillary Clinton maintained a charming smile and said to Patton: "Protecting their airspace and territorial security is the top priority of every country, I agree with the view of China's political axe, but I don't quite agree with China's political axe's approach, the intensity of this kind of blow seems to be a bit too harsh, and now is a special difficult time, China is such a large populous country, and there are less than 10 million survivors, so it can be seen that the world has been greatly devastationed, and many other countries have a much lower survival rate than China, Just like South Korea, their invasion of China's territory should not be out of malice, but out of helplessness for survival, and now South Korea's situation is very difficult, and it is understandable that they are pinning their hopes on China. ”

"Huh." Xie Tian smiled indifferently and said: "If the Koreans lack supplies, then they can talk to us, they can beg us for material assistance, or they can also bring their citizens to China, we can give them a piece of land and give them a job in farming, but we are absolutely not allowed to enter our territory without permission, once this happens, in our opinion, it is no different from an invasion, and we will definitely give the most severe counterattack!" ”

"This" Hillary was a little shocked when she heard this, Qin Zhengxuan, a person from a military background, is indeed not a politician, so he does not have the tactfulness and obscurity of ordinary politicians, everything is very straightforward, the more straightforward he is, the more he can't accept it, and even listens to it, after all, China is much stronger than the United States now, if there is really friction with China because of something, then Hillary has no doubt that the hawkish leader in front of him will drop the bomb directly on the head of Washington, D.C.

Hillary Clinton really wants to talk openly and honestly about the Guam issue with Barton, but now, she is a little reluctant, so it seems that Guam's weapons and materials are likely to be taken away by the Chinese, but how can she openly and honestly talk about this issue with the hawkish leader in front of her? If the United States does not find trouble in the future, the Chinese will definitely not be unable to get along with the United States, but if they open the skylight now and speak brightly, talk about the affairs of Guam, and ask the Chinese political axe to speak, what kind of result will they get?

Expect Patton to apologize and promise to return U.S. weapons and supplies? Hillary Clinton thinks that this is completely a dream and that it is impossible at all, and she even firmly believes that Patton will not give the United States the slightest compensation for this, not even a pound of rice, and it is more likely that she will be very humble and say: "We took those weapons and materials, what is your opinion?" How? Are you not convinced? If you don't accept it, try a fight. ”

Hillary Clinton suddenly felt that her request to visit China was a joke, and she wanted to change the fact that Guam was already doomed through mediation, which was simply a fool's dream, and if she continued to discuss this topic with Patton, then it was very likely that she would be sent back to the United States directly, so now she can only change her routine, on the one hand, to show goodwill to China, and on the other hand, to see how far China has developed at present.

Hillary immediately changed the topic and said, "Commander Qin, China is now capable of growing a large number of crops south of the Yangtze River, right?" After all, your country has just made a big deal to transport a large number of people from Saudi Arabia and Pakistan to China some time ago. ”

Xie Tian nodded and said: "We now have a population of more than 8 million, plus nearly 1 million people in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, at least 6 million people are in charge of farming, and the current farming efficiency is very high, so next year I think our grain output can reach about 8 million to 10 million tons." ”

"Eight million to 10 million tons," Hillary Clinton said after a pause, "then you can feed at least 40 million people, which is more than the total population of the world now." ”

Xie Tian smiled slightly and said: "At present, this is the case, but I have no choice, after all, there are too few industries that we can develop now, and the labor force required by the industry is only a few hundred thousand people, so most of the population can only be used for agricultural cultivation, after next year's grain output, we can use it to trade with the world, and the surplus grain can be used to buy the materials, equipment, weapons and ammunition we need from other countries." ”

Hillary nodded slightly, but her heart was already shocked, Xie Tian casually said a few numbers have made her realize how big the gap between the United States and China is, the United States is now investing in the planting of grain is very small, and very scattered, in Washington's urban area of some green areas for grain planting, the most ideal harvest can only meet one-fifth of the current total demand, and the remaining 80 percent of the gap does not know how to make up, so on, next year, When most of the food supplies are moldy and hairy, expired food, and they have no new food to replace, they may face a massive population decline.

Hillary opened her mouth and asked, "Commander Qin, I wonder if the United States can cooperate with China in agricultural matters?" ”

"Cooperation?" Xie Tian frowned and asked, "How to cooperate?" ”

Hillary blurted out: "We have a scientific and technological foundation that no country in the world can match in food planting, and the highest degree of mechanization, if we can cooperate, we can provide China with excellent fertilizers, seeds, farming equipment and even agricultural scientific research equipment and our technological achievements, as for how to cooperate, we can try to invest in technology and equipment, in our cooperative agricultural projects, we provide all the equipment and scientific and technological support, after the harvest, We take a small portion of it in return. ”

Xie Tian also knows that the Americans have an extremely advanced scientific and technological foundation in agriculture, and compared with China's backward manpower farming, they are more efficient, and the use of labor is also the best, often a person or a family can use machinery to easily handle the planting of dozens or hundreds of acres of arable land, which is impossible to achieve in China, because there are too many farmers in China, and most of them are low-level farmers, and the use of relatively primitive farming methods is also relatively primitive.

Hillary Clinton said that she seems to realize that there is an excellent channel for cooperation with China, that is, to provide China with things that China does not have, technology, equipment, materials, in any case, as long as you can reach a cooperative relationship with the Chinese, then first of all, there is no need to worry that China will strike at the United States, and second, the United States can also obtain tangible benefits, after all, the United States is not capable of agricultural and industrial development at all.

Hillary Clinton said very sincerely: "Commander Qin, I am very curious about what industries have been carried out in China now, and we can provide equipment and technical support for the industries that have been carried out in China, but the fault line of our domestic technical personnel is very serious, and it may be difficult to achieve comprehensive technical support, but there is certainly no problem with hardware support." ”

Xie Tian smiled faintly: "The industry we are currently carrying out, there is nothing to keep secret, first of all, thermal power generation, now the power supply of the entire Shanghai relies on thermal power generation, as for the coal for thermal power generation, we have restarted the coal mining industry, in addition, there is also the food processing industry, which is nothing more than the conversion of the stock of wheat into flour or various foods, as well as military manufacturing, oil refining." ”

Hillary Clinton hurriedly said: "These industries, the United States can cooperate with China, especially power engineering, our wind power generation, solar power generation has a high foundation, and there are still some talents in the country to help China solve energy problems, in addition, advanced equipment, production lines and core technologies of various industries, we can cooperate." ”

Xie Tian opened his mouth and asked, "You are still very complete in biological research, right?" Haven't you already researched a test strip for the zombie virus before, which can detect whether the creature carries the zombie virus? ”

"Yes." Hillary nodded and said: "In terms of biological research, we still have a strong preserved strength, and now the Fernandez Virus and Biological Research Center in Washington has restarted research work, and the purpose is also to hope to solve the secrets of the zombie virus as soon as possible, if China is interested, we can also work together." ”

Xie Tian nodded and said, "Why do you suddenly want to cooperate with China?" ”

Hillary Clinton glanced at Xie Tian, but fortunately no longer had a purely political conversation with Xie Tian as a secretary of state, but as an American citizen, she said: "I think China and the United States are the two countries that have the best chance to achieve a win-win situation in this post-apocalyptic world, China has preserved a quarter of the world's population, and it is the first to start the reconstruction work, and the United States, which has a strong scientific and technological and hardware foundation, if we can abandon all the reasons that have affected the relationship between the two countries before, If we truly become a strategic partner, then I believe we can develop better. ”
