Chapter 995: Relationships are Difficult to Improve
Han Ya's emotion is not unreasonable, domestic generals are not easy to mix, but once they enter the ranks of major generals, then the future development will be easier. Please add the scriptures|classics|book friends new group 9494-7767【】
As long as there are no major problems, once the annual dividend is reached, there is a possibility of appreciation.
Of course, there is also a problem here, that is, Han Ya has to leave the secret service.
After all, although the Secret Service is a relatively special place, its director is at most at the level of a major general, and if you go to a higher place, you need to be like Han Ya's predecessor and go to other high-level departments to be promoted.
But if you leave the secret service, many situations may be completely different, and judging from Han Ya's current situation, it is obvious that staying in the secret service is the best choice, after all, these abilities are far stronger than before under the cultivation of her and Lin Xiao, and their strength has increased several times.
Such a special service has already made a qualitative leap in both combat effectiveness and importance, so although Han Ya's military rank is only major general, it is incomparable to ordinary lieutenant generals and even generals.
From a practical point of view, Han Ya's position as a major general is no match for the second one in the whole army.
"You don't have to leave the Secret Service to get promoted." After Lin Xiao listened to Han Ya's words, he shook his head and said, "Judging from the current situation, it is a matter of time before the secret service is promoted, and when the time comes, it is very possible for you to be promoted directly to lieutenant general, of course, if you want to do this, first of all, the secret service will have to make some achievements." ”
Han Ya nodded, thinking deeply.
Just like this time against Li Zhuang and others, the secret service has played a great role in it, this is her political achievements, sooner or later they will be commended together, if there are more similar achievements, the impact on the secret service, the impression left on the high-level, these are very profound.
Of course, it is possible for a lieutenant general to be promoted from the ground in the secret service, but it is absolutely impossible for a general.
If you want to reach the level that Lin Xiao said, you must be promoted to a higher position on the basis of controlling the secret service, after all, the rank of general is no longer something that ordinary people can expect, and those who can be promoted to this position are all people who have reached the highest level in all aspects.
There are also some generals who are promoted by relying on high-level relationships and relying on connections, but according to past experience, these people's foundation is unstable and their qualifications are insufficient, and once something changes, they are easily taken down, and finally they are tossed to death, and some even spend the rest of their lives in prison.
This is also a dilemma, if there is no one at the top to support him, it is impossible to go to the position of general, but if the person above falls, then the military generals who have a good relationship with him will not escape the same fate.
This problem cannot be solved, at least in the short term.
After Lin Xiao and Han Ya separated, he went to visit Old Man Xiao again, and reported to him about the harvest in Bincheng this time, as well as the trends in all aspects, etc.
"Little devils and Jews are really not good things, I know that." Old Man Xiao has been busy with work recently, but his mental state is still relatively good, after listening to Lin Xiao's words, he expressed his opinion, "But it is not easy for you to find this treasure, I heard that just gold jewelry or something, you can estimate the value of tens of billions of dollars?" ”
"Yes, it is indeed worth a lot, and it must be passed that these are the capitals of the Jews who planned to establish a state in the Northeast back then, and the amount must be amazing." Lin Xiao nodded yes.
At that time, the Jews wanted to establish a state in the Northeast, on the one hand, because this place was indeed more suitable for them, on the other hand, because of the Japanese pandering, of course, the main reason was that they were ostracized in all aspects, and there was no place in the whole of Europe, so they had to flee to the Pearl, hoping to use the Pearl as a springboard to go to the more stable American continent.
But the participation of the Japanese suddenly gave them a picture cake for the establishment of a country in the Northeast, which made the Jews unable to calm down, after all, the Jews who have wandered for thousands of years are most eager to get a piece of land and then establish their own country.
The Japanese will not be able to refuse such a thing.
Therefore, at that time, many Jews turned all their family property into gold bars and other small and high-value jewelry, etc., and then came to the Northeast and preserved them for the establishment of the country.
Unfortunately, the Japanese retreated too suddenly, and the Jews themselves underwent some internal changes, so these treasures were preserved, and finally the Chinese were cheapened, and they were dug up a few decades later.
"However, I must also warn you that Jewish money is not easy to get." Old Man Xiao reminded Lin Xiaodao, "I heard that some Jews are ready to move and want to get back these treasures through official channels, although I haven't seen their specific actions yet, but I have already gotten some rumors from the United States, and they will definitely not give up." ”
"I'm not afraid of this." Lin Xiao had already planned for this, "In this treasure, there are a large number of weapons and equipment, all of which are supported by the Americans, and some of them are supported by the Japanese, and there is also a relatively complete plan to establish a Jewish state in Northeast China, if we take this thing out, it will definitely make them shut up immediately." ”
In fact, when doing this matter, Lin Xiao and Han Ya had already taken precautions.
The gold and treasures were personally handled and packed by their trusted subordinates, and when the military people came to help, they were basically sorting out the weapons and equipment, as well as a small number of Jewish documents or something, and only a very small amount of jewelry and antiques, which they saw.
In this way, most people don't know how much gold jewelry is worth in this treasure room, and outsiders are naturally even more unclear.
Although the Jews and the Japanese may have some information about those years, after so many years, these materials have long been lost, and they only imagine the value of these treasures according to estimates, and there are no specific exact figures.
In this case, even if the Huaxia side swallowed up most of the treasures, leaving them only weapons and equipment and a small amount of antiques, they did not have any temper, after all, no one had a list of this to prove how much treasure was kept here back then.
"Well, you have a big plan, naturally it's the best." Old Man Xiao didn't ask Lin Xiao how much benefit he had taken, this kind of thing was actually insignificant in his opinion, after all, Lin Xiao was no longer within the scope of what they could control.
Besides, if Lin Xiao hadn't made a move, it would have been impossible to take this case.
In the final analysis, your own strength is the most critical issue, if you don't have strength, everything is nonsense.
"By the way, a few days ago, the Pope of the Holy See took a special plane to transit through our Chinese airspace, and also published a relatively friendly greeting article." Old Man Xiao suddenly mentioned this matter, "I heard from the prime minister, you also contacted this matter?" ”
"There's such a thing, it's just taking advantage of each other." Lin Xiao nodded and replied, "Actually, I think it would be good to ease the relationship with the Holy See a little, but there is no need to get too close, after all, if any religion sets foot in China, it may bring us some trouble." ”
"Well, it's best that you can understand that." Old Man Xiao listened, nodded approvingly, "At present, we don't need to formally establish diplomatic relations with the Holy See, which is in our fundamental interests. ”
Why has there been no diplomatic relations between China and the Holy See? The main reason is that the Chinese government has always adhered to its two positions, the first is that the Holy See must first sever relations with the Taiwan side, and the second is that the Holy See must not interfere in the Catholic Church in China.
At a recent regular news briefing, the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also said again that the two basic principles of the Chinese government's handling of relations with the Holy See are consistent and have not changed.
If we look at it from the outside, it seems that the Taiwan issue is the key to resolving the relations between the two countries, but in fact, the Taiwan issue is not the biggest obstacle to the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the Holy See.
The Holy See has always been very clear that the establishment of diplomatic relations with Taiwan is not in line with the Chinese government's Chinese policy, but the Holy See has a choice on this issue; although the Holy See has never unilaterally severed diplomatic relations with any country in history, the Holy See does not hesitate to give up Taiwan's position in order to protect the believers on the Chinese mainland, and even the bishops of Taiwan have accepted it, so the first condition is not a problem
Religion is the key.
The main controversy between China and the Holy See is, in essence, religious freedom. by this extremely sensitive political issue.
Whether from the standpoint of religious missionary work or for the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese believers, the Chinese mainland, which has an incomparably large number of current and potential believers, is a market that the Holy See is trying to develop.
The late Pope Paul II had vigorously pursued the policy of eastward expansion and had always wanted to visit China, but the Chinese side had always refused to use the grounds that the two countries had not yet established diplomatic relations.
The newly outgoing Pope Benedict XVI issued an open letter calling for dialogue with the Chinese government, and the two sides have since held contacts and informal talks, but there has been no substantive breakthrough.
The indifference on the part of China seems to be understandable, because for the Chinese government, the risks of establishing diplomatic relations with the Holy See obviously outweigh the benefits, and the Chinese government has always been worried that hostile forces outside the country will use religion to subvert China and affect social stability.
Therefore, for the new pope, how to deal with the relationship with the Chinese government is naturally a major challenge for him after taking office, but China, which has become increasingly open in the economic field, should be unlikely to give up its monopoly or regulation in the political and religious fields in the short term, so the prospects for the development of China and the Holy See will not be so optimistic.
"All in all, once the national interest is involved, it's hard to say." Old Man Xiao reminded Lin Xiaodao, "If the Holy See is a normal big country, then this matter is not a problem at all, diplomatic relations have been established a long time ago, but they are just a few Miao people, and they will not be of substantial help to us, but the impact may bring us a lot of trouble, so it is more in our interests to keep them out for the time being." ”
"That's true." Lin Xiao deeply agreed, "Religion is a thing that can easily make people extreme, China has its own traditional religion, there is no need to worship any foreign gods, it is purely self-destructive." ”
