"The Nobel Prize in Chemistry? Hiss~ I seem to be a little impressed. ”

Holding a dry smoking gun, Zaitao slowly took a few puffs, and his eyes were a little cloudy through the smoke.

"What is it called, Haber? Yes, it's called Haber, and during that time in Europe, I had a brief exchange with him, but it was just a few words, the relationship was average, I really didn't expect that the little guy to win this award. ”

Cheng Nuo didn't expect to mention two sentences simply, Zaitao actually knew this guy.

But that's fine, so I don't have to introduce it extra.

"That's right, this Haber still has some connections with our Academy of Sciences, don't look at the current scenery, it seems that he has won an award and has some international reputation, but in fact, some people identify him as an important war criminal, and the treatment on special occasions is not as good as that of a rat crossing the street." Thinking of Haber's situation, Cheng Nuo sighed a little.

However, although he was not welcomed by some countries in his previous life, he still won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and his life after the war was not very good, but at least he did not worry about being thrown rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves when he walked out on the street.

But this life is different, with the addition of Cheng Nuo's previous batch of chemical weapons, coupled with the scourge of some "Japanese", Haber's achievements have expanded a lot, and some chemical weapons have been leaked after the war, which has exacerbated Haber's "crime".

Of course, there are some crimes that Haber himself doesn't know, and he was inexplicably put on a hat like this, plus he fled in a neutral country at that time, and he was afraid that it would be too late for people to know where he was hiding, and where would he dare to publicly reprimand.

As a result, the more hats are worn, the more crimes are committed.

"Honor is precious, the bonus price is higher, if it is for life, both can be thrown." As the initiator behind this series of events, thinking of Brother Haber's downfall, Cheng Nuo couldn't help but want to laugh: "Right now, Haber is on the cusp, which is not necessarily a good thing for him." ”

After learning about Habo's situation, Zaitao couldn't cry or laugh: "Dean, Dean, I don't know if I should praise you for being a chicken thief or saying that you are wise?" I never thought that you would go to Europe and take their great scientist with you. ”

Cheng Nuo deliberately put on his face: "Hey, hey, pay attention to the words, what is abduction?" We are peaceful and friendly academic exchanges, they contribute money, we contribute, but I didn't expect something to go wrong in the middle, the reason can only be that they don't use it well, and it has nothing to do with us. ”

Zaitao was a little unconvinced, and knocked on the table with a dry tobacco gun: "But the identity of this Japanese, we are quite proficient in using it, this is not a fake after all, right?" ”

Cheng Nuo raised his eyebrows and said in a witty tone: "Haven't they Japanese always wanted to break away from Asia and join Europe?" We're helping them, thank us too late, whoever makes us like to do good deeds without leaving a name, or we'll have to ask them for some reward. ”

Looking at the dean's vigorous appearance, Rao is Zaitao is well-informed on weekdays, and he doesn't know what to say at the moment: "This...... I can only say that the Japanese deserve such a bad reputation for bullying and humiliating me on weekdays, and committing a lot of evil deeds. ”

Getting up and coming to the door, Cheng Nuo looked at the dead leaves on the tree with his hands behind his back: "Don't the Japanese think that the European war is their 'heavenly blessing'?" In the final analysis, we just add another sum of firewood, we just hate that this fire is not strong enough! ”

Because of the outbreak of World War I, the major European countries had no time to look east because of the war, which gave Japan an opportunity to expand its interests.

After the British formally requested assistance from Japan, the Japanese government, veterans, and military departments all believed that World War I was a "once-in-a-lifetime" opportunity for Japan.

Its patriarch Inoue Shin suggested to then-Prime Minister Shigenobu Okuma: This European war is a blessing for the development of Japan's national fortunes in the new era of Taisho. In the course of the war, Japan should further strengthen its unity with Britain, France, and Russia in order to establish Japan's rights and interests in the East.

During his reign, Japan provided a loan of 500 million yen to the Anhui system, and directly trained and equipped 3 divisions and 4 mixed brigades, in order to help Japan expand its interests in China.

With the endorsement of the government, Japan successfully seized the interests of Shandong, formed a horn with the Liaodong Peninsula, and thus achieved a favorable situation for the development of China's Yangtze River valley.

Through the establishment of transportation financial institutions, political loans, and industrial investment, and the expansion of aggressive rights and interests, Japan's fiscal revenue continued to increase, and its national strength also increased, and by 1915, Japan was transformed from a debtor country before the war to a creditor country.

For these changes, it is impossible not to know with Zaitao's knowledge, and he picked up the dry smoking gun again, and in the backlit room, the red light in the smoke pot flashed one after another.

"Think about it carefully, although our fire is burning, but his little Japanese is not waiting to eat next to him, but sitting directly on the fire, it is he who hurts, and it is me who laughs...... Dean, you're a good move! ”

"I don't know if it's good or not for the time being, but we should focus on not making little Japan comfortable." Cheng Nuo returned to the house and refilled the coal stove with a new piece of coal: "Mr. Zai, do you know what these people in Europe are about to do right now?" ”

Spit out a smoke ring, Zaitao sneered: "What else can you be busy with?" Germany was defeated, and it must have been busy carving up Germany's rights, just like the previous partition of our China, eating people without spitting out bones. ”

"That's right, although the people who eat are already on their way, the ingredients for cooking are still being processed." Cheng Nuo said while digging out the ashes at the bottom of the furnace: "Germany was defeated, and it was necessary for the great powers to replan the post-war international order, and the purpose of Japan's participation in the meeting was to obtain Germany's rights and interests in Shandong and the Pacific Islands. ”

Zaitao comprehended and sat up straight from his chair: "You mean, let me go to the layout in advance?" ”

Cheng Nuo patted the ash on his hands and said with a smile: "As far as I know, the current Japanese cabinet has begun to review the post-war treaty on China, the main content of which is to ask Germany to lease all territorial waters in Shandong, railways, mines and other rights and privileges, but these need the support of those powers. ”

Zaitao Zhengse said: "If we make a hindrance and make Japan's reputation worse in the world, it will inevitably affect the support of international countries for Japan, and in the end they will be in vain!" ”

Cheng Nuo shook his head and sighed: "If we can make the Japanese abacus empty after these tricks that we can't put on the table, then it will be worth our effort, but in the face of specific national interests, reputation is a rag, which comes and goes as soon as it is called." ”

Zaitao, who was on the rise, was puzzled: "Why is this? Could it be that he, the Japanese, can go against the general trend of the international community? I believe that if there was pressure from public opinion, the Japanese would never have been so rampant. ”

"But between countries, it's not just a child's house, you have a bad reputation, I won't play with you anymore." Thinking of the twists and turns, Cheng Nuo directly threw the burning stick on the ground: "At this time last year, Japan and the United States had already signed the "Lanxin-Ishii Agreement", and we had already betrayed our interests!" ”

Zaitao was puzzled: "But wasn't the European war still in full swing at that time?" ”

Cheng Nuo snorted coldly and said angrily: "It is because the European powers over there are fighting in full swing that the two countries have the opportunity to free up their hands and discuss the distribution of interests in China after the war. ”

Zaitao, who was anxious, originally wanted to fight for a few more words, but thinking of what happened during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it just confirmed the incomparably correct words of Cheng Nuo, people just treat you as fish on the chopping board, where will the butcher ask their opinions.

Fame? Worthless in the face of concrete interests.

Cheng Nuo couldn't bear to discourage Zaitao's enthusiasm, thought about it and said: "What can't be fought for on the battlefield, thinking about relying on the negotiation table to work hard, this is very unrealistic, but then again, it's man-made!" ”

Originally, he wanted to take two more puffs with a dry tobacco gun, but just now he was so preoccupied with Europe that he didn't know when the fire in the smoke pot would go out.

However, Cheng Nuo's words quietly made Zaitao's heart hot again.

"Dean, you say."

"The Japanese wolf's ambition to seek the Far East has long been obvious in the international community, and everyone is not a fool and understands what the Japanese think, but now because of other needs, everyone has temporarily reached an agreement with each other, and they deliberately turn a blind eye."

"What are we going to do?"

"Simple, it is to speed up the powers to open the closed eye!"

"Could it be a conspiracy?"

"Yes, didn't the ancestors often say that we want to reconcile yin and yang, if we only use conspiracy, it will play a very limited role in containing Japan, so it is necessary for us to take a certain yang conspiracy!"

"I think I understand what the dean meant, which means that we want to build momentum for the Japanese!"

"Mr. Zaitao, who knows me, is also! Zuo Qiu Ming's opening work "Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan" in "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period" has already revealed a truth, that is, if we want it to perish, we must first let it go crazy, and what we have to do is to accelerate the madness of the Japanese in the international momentum. ”

If you look at Cheng Nuo's strength at the moment, there is no way to reverse the situation at all, and many things can only be thought about.

But this does not mean that Cheng Nuo can't do anything, if he follows the pulse of history, the weight on his body will be greatly reduced.

Taking advantage of the First World War, Japan vigorously expanded its armaments and had the tendency to "dominate" the Pacific Ocean; by the end of the war, its military expenditure accounted for almost half of its total domestic revenue, and its navy had stepped up the implementation of the "88 Fleet" plan.

The so-called 88th Fleet is a fleet formed by the Japanese Navy on the basis of eight capital ships and eight cruisers.

It just so happened that the United States had gained great influence in the international community through World War I, and it actively pursued the policy of "balance of power" in the Far East and expanded its interests in the Far East with the economic backing.

Under such circumstances, some friction between the two sides is bound to occur, which will then affect the pace of Japan's invasion of China.

"Mr. Zai, I may have to work hard for you later." Seeing that the water in the kettle had been boiled, Cheng Nuo took the initiative to pick it up and pour hot water for Zaitao: "Especially when I go to Europe, I have a heavy responsibility." ”

Holding the cup, Zaitao said solemnly: "Please also ask the dean to make it clear." ”

Cheng Nuo put down the kettle and said slowly: "First, Mr. Zai's first stop in Europe is Sweden, where you take the address I gave you, take my token to find Professor Haber, and wait until he attends the award ceremony of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and then take him back quietly."

This man is very important to us, we need him to study pesticides in agriculture, we also need him to help us test the quality of coal in steel, and if we finally take over a coal mine, we find that the phosphoric acid content in it is too high, and in the end it still cannot be used for ironmaking. ”

Zaitao nodded: "Okay, I will definitely bring someone to you completely, I haven't seen him for so many years, just take the opportunity to see if he has changed much." ”

Cheng Nuo smiled and said: "This time, you transferred the elite of our school guard team to the past, not only for the sake of everyone's safety, but also to open the eyes of these little guys." ”

Zaitao's eyes suddenly lit up: "Now my chances of winning are even greater, even if I see the token Mr. Haber who is unwilling to come, I can tie it to you, and finally use the Japanese hat." ”

Cheng Nuo laughed and couldn't help but nod at the other party: "Yes, let's just do it, and we just got to the next one."

Second, Mr. Zai's second destination in Europe was Paris, and when he arrived there, he found some locals and asked them to desperately publicize the fact that the Japanese had helped Germany use chemical weapons. ”

Hearing this, Zaitao couldn't help but glance at Cheng Nuo deeply, seeing that Cheng Nuo felt a little hairy in his heart, he quickly asked after taking a sip of tea: "What's the matter, does Mr. Zai have a different opinion?" You don't have to do what I say, you can adapt to everything. ”

Zaitao hurriedly denied it: "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to say, you are really ruthless." ”

Cheng Nuo sneered: "Where else is this, there is the next one, third,

When you arrive in Paris, you should find some students we can trust, and ask them to publish articles in major newspapers and periodicals, the main content of which is to analyze the 'advantages' of Japan's post-war expansion of its interests in the Far East. ”

Zaitao said with a smile: "I understand, try to write from the perspective of Japan, advocate Japan, believe that I can definitely blow a flower with him, and I have to give him a flower towards the plaster flag." ”

Cheng Nuo patted Zaitao's shoulder: "With your words, I am much more relieved, but there is one thing to pay attention to." ”

Zaitao wondered, "What's the matter?" ”

Cheng Nuo said earnestly: "Everything is personal safety first!" ”

As he spoke, he threw a cigarette to Zaitao.

"Don't keep smoking dry tobacco, try foreign tobacco, this is what I brought from Europe, get used to it first."

Looking at the smoke, Zaitao was speechless.
