"There are also some political and economic negotiations that can give the prime minister a façade, such as bilateral trade, and some related judicial issues, of course, these small things are not very closely related to the overall situation, but don't the people just like to watch these trivial things? And they like these trivial things, they don't care about how the Navy is built, what the country's strategy is. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Baptiste had to admit that although the words of this uninvited guest were sharper, he kept saying to the point, "Of course, the people are like this, they don't listen well, they don't look good, they will always be tempted by the small profits in front of them, and they will not take into account the long-term development of any country. It is short-sighted and blind for them to immediately demand that our government properly negotiate a solution to the aftermath of the war, as you can see, sir, and to acknowledge the conditions put forward by China without thinking. ”

"So we have to be a wise leader of yours to lead the future of France, we can't interfere in the political changes in your country, if we can, the hardliners can't come to power at all, but we can provide the necessary help, it's not that we want to interfere in the internal affairs of your country, we are not the United Kingdom, we have no interest in interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, we just ask to maintain relations with your country, we have no direct conflict, solve the affairs of Vietnam, of course we can be all-round partners, The Viceroyalty of Saigon will be retained, by a special treaty, that this is your country's stronghold in East Asia, which we recognize, and that part of Nanqi will be vested in France. ”

The problem now is that as long as the last fig leaf of Saigon is kept, as for what name, the people will not understand the difference between governing power and sovereignty, and what special agreement there is, they will only know that under the wise leadership of His Excellency the Prime Minister, France has not failed completely, "I am very grateful for your country's efforts to reach negotiations, but I do not think that there is any common goal between our two countries that can lead to a partnership between our two countries." ”

"Not at the moment, doesn't mean there will be no next," the visitor smiled and said something else, "Mr. Prime Minister, your son works in Marseille, we know that, of course, in Paris we can't interfere too much, but at the local level, we can help him, I heard that he is going to run for city council?" We will do our best to help him, and that is as our sincerity, there are many warship factories in Marseille, if your country no longer studies ocean-going warships. After saying this, the guest stood up, "Okay, Your Excellency Prime Minister, our conditions have been discussed, how to choose next, it is up to you, if the parliament can quickly pass the Green Water Navy Program bill, then we will fully support you, speaking of which, the Prime Minister of your country is the most pitiful and embarrassing head of state I have ever seen, we do not need to support a puppet regime, but just want to cultivate a cordial relationship with China, our two countries are thousands of miles apart, except for Vietnam, There are no struggles or disagreements between us. ”

Still late at night, the visitor bowed and left in his cloak, Baptiste stood on the steps, stood silent for a long time, his intuition told him that the Chinese would not frame themselves, because China's performance in the international community, is a very loyal partner, will not go back on its word or change the order of the day, but with a person who is still in a hostile country to have secret contact, this is a big political stain, if in case it is exposed by the Chinese in the future, His political career will inevitably be more miserable than that of Jofferi, who has now retired in the Parisian countryside, but power is so fascinating that once it is contaminated, no one is willing to give it up.

The sky was already slightly bright, there was some noise on the street, it was another sleepless night, Paris was still a little cold in the early morning, Baptiste sneezed, shaking his spirits, he called the servants at home, cleaned up his coat and prepared breakfast, he needed to go to parliament immediately, he had to negotiate with the old immortal members of the military council today to determine the green water naval plan, if this plan passed, France would not lose any reparations, and even at that time it could borrow the Chinese to want this technology, Knock a sum of money back to compensate the unlucky ghosts who died in Vietnam.

Baptiste is not ready to tell the British side about this, he is actually the same as the Chinese, very much hate the British everywhere fingers, please mediate, not let you be the emperor of France, of course, if the British continue to come forward, the shares of the Suez Canal cannot be easily transferred, because Britain is very strict on the actions of the Chinese here in the Egyptian Canal, and does not give China any opportunity to manage the affairs of the canal, if Britain learns that France will pay reparations in the form of shares, he must be opposed, But this negotiation will not be able to continue, if China continues to carry out their military operations in Vietnam, the Saigon Governor's Office will definitely not be able to be saved, and at that time the negotiations will not be able to continue, and they will have to move out of the Peace Palace. This was unacceptable to Baptiste, and he saw clearly from the Chinese's attempt to increase the stake in the Suez Canal that the Chinese were very ambitious, and in the current situation of France losing the war, there was no need to stop the huge China for others.

So he approached Erbi and Shabi, who had previously supported him as prime minister, the chairman of the Finance and Military Council, and bluntly explained the Chinese side's demand to sign the treaty with 50 million francs and a part of the Suez Canal shares.

Of course, this condition is not very harsh, it is within the acceptable range of France, Baptiste is not prepared to tell the chairman of the Military Council in advance about the technology of ocean-going warships that China really wants, it is unwise to talk about this matter now, it will make the old men of the parliament wonder if they have any unsightly interests in this, he just began to command the Minister of Defense to take charge of this matter, and then hinted to the Admiralty that this plan is feasible, especially now in the situation of financial constraints, The parliamentarians originally belonged to the kind of character that beat the water dogs, and if the navy failed, then of course it proved that they were useless.

Finally, ask for a monthly pass, everyone collects it, see if there is a monthly pass, if there is, bring it?! (To be continued.) )
