"I also think it's impossible. Nanjing's judgment lacks basis." Sheng Youdedao.
"Don't mess up your position, otherwise you will be fooled by the Japanese." Lu Ming said worriedly.
"In addition to the government, all walks of life in Nanjing have such discussions. Some people have proposed moving the capital to Luoyang to avoid the Japanese. It is simply ridiculous." Sheng Youde sighed.
"Moving the capital? Are you out of your mind? Wouldn't it make the Japanese laugh out loud if they did such a thing?" Lu Ming opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say.
"Is there really going to be a war in Shanghai? It's too scary." Yuan Ziyuan's face turned pale, obviously frightened by the news.
Sheng Muyi looked normal and patted Yuan Ziyuan's hand gently, which was a kind of comfort. She was not nervous.
The two of them had just arrived at Sheng Youde's office, and Lu Ming walked in as soon as they sat down.
"Old man, why do you think the Japanese do this? In addition to being crazy, they must have some reason. They start a war for no reason and don't care about international public opinion at all?" Lu Ming asked.
He still couldn't figure out the real purpose of the Japanese. It was said that the Japanese had just succeeded in the Northeast, so they had to digest it for a while. It had only been more than three months, and they were going to take action in Shanghai again.
It seems like the behavior of a madman, but there must be some unknown reason behind it.
"There are internal reasons for this, Mu Yi, you analyze it for them." Sheng Youde brought a bottle of wine over.
He poured two glasses of wine, one for Lu Ming and one for himself. Yuan Ziyuan was not polite and took a cup and poured one herself. Sheng Youde just laughed.
Sheng Muyi looked dignified and exasperated, saying: "The Japanese occupied the Northeast without any reason. The major powers are dissatisfied. The League of Nations is studying how to put pressure on Japan. The Japanese are worried that the international community will require them to eat
He spit out the meat from his mouth and deliberately made a gesture of death, indicating that he would never give in on the Northeast issue."
"This is a typical example of a fierce person with a strong heart. Are the Japanese planning to break the rules and become enemies of the world?" Lu Ming said in surprise.
"Of course they don't have the courage, but they just want to shake the nerves of the great powers, so they may target Shanghai, the area where the great powers have the largest economic interests in China and is also the most important. They want to cause an incident, so that they can
By attracting the eyes of the great powers to Shanghai, the pressure on the Kwantung Army in the Northeast is reduced, and then they can peacefully attack Manchukuo." Sheng Muyi continued.
"Yes! Sister Mu Yi, you are amazing. You have been away from Shanghai for a few months and now you have become an expert on international issues!" Lu Ming suddenly understood.
If the Japanese want to establish a puppet regime in the Northeast, the great powers may not agree, and they will definitely put unbearable pressure on the Japanese. Therefore, if the Japanese want to launch an attack in the east and west, once they open fire in Shanghai, the nerves of the great powers will jump and they will
Attention has been focused on Shanghai and no longer on Northeast China.
The Japanese can take advantage of this gap to concentrate on the puppet regime of Manchukuo. By the time the great powers come to their senses, Northeast China is already a foregone conclusion.
Damn it, who said the Japanese are all crazy? They are as cunning as foxes. Grandma is a fox.
"There is also a deeper reason, which is economic." Sheng Muyi continued her analysis before she finished speaking.
"Economically? How do you talk about this? It is impossible for China to compensate him like the Manchus did." Lu Ming asked.
"Well, economic and country-to-country relations may appear to be political on the surface, but if you study it carefully, you will find that it is actually because of the economy. It can be said that all human behavior is restricted by the economy.
, and instinctively follow the laws of economics." Sheng Youde smiled.
"Old man, you can still laugh. When I first heard the news, I broke out in a cold sweat." Lu Ming said with a bitter smile.
"That's because you lack training. Our generation has experienced too many wars and we know where the plank road is and where the warehouse is." Sheng Youde said calmly.
"Actually, my father had anticipated this for a long time, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly." Sheng Muyi whispered.
"Did you expect that the Japanese would come to Shanghai to cause trouble?" Lu Ming was even more surprised.
"I do expect that the Japanese will take an action to divert the attention of the great powers, and the target of the action is likely to be Shanghai, but I don't know when the Japanese will take action. Now that I have obtained your information, it has confirmed my guess."
Full of virtue.
"Do you think this is just a feint, not a real attack on Shanghai?" Lu Ming asked.
"This Japanese action can also be said to be an incident and a war drill, but it will not expand the war in Shanghai. However, since the start of the Northeast, Japan's war of aggression against China has already begun. Don't deceive yourself on this point.
." Sheng Youde changed his face again and said sternly.
"They just want to divert the attention of the great powers in Shanghai. As long as the gunfire in Shanghai continues, the great powers will have no intention of paying attention to the affairs in the Northeast. After the affairs in the Northeast are resolved, there will be a truce in Shanghai. This is my father's analysis.
." Sheng Muyi said.
"Then you didn't tell Nanjing what you thought?" Lu Ming asked Sheng Youdedao.
"Why not? My father sent a copy of his analysis and prediction to each of Mr. Jiang and Mr. Wang last month, but now it seems that it has not attracted their attention. But your information is timely.
, we can sound the alarm for them." Sheng Muyi went over to fill up the wine glasses for her father and Lu Ming.
Yuan Ziyuan pushed her wine glass to Sheng Muyi's hand. Sheng Muyi glared at her and only gave her half a glass.
"Old man, why don't you send me a copy of this report?" Lu Ming asked.
As soon as this was said, everyone in the room laughed.
"I'm serious. I'm a big shot now. Because of this information, Mr. Jiang promoted me this afternoon and appointed me as the vice president of the Shanghai branch." Lu Ming said.
"Really? You're the vice president!" Yuan Ziyuan asked with her eyes wide open. Obviously she didn't know about this yet because she didn't go to work today because something happened at Sheng's side.
"Don't make us laugh." Sheng Muyi slapped Lu Ming.
She didn't think that Lu Ming's promotion as vice president was a promotion, but she thought that Mr. Jiang was deliberately trying to win over people.
"I understand. Mr. Jiang's chief of bodyguards called me and said that Mr. Jiang wanted to further appoint you and asked me if I agreed. I said you can use it as you like," Sheng Youde said with a smile.
"Do you really think this is a promotion? People are just taking advantage of you." Sheng Muyi said with a smile.
"Use it as long as you want. I also want to use this organization to deal with the Japanese. I have the power now. Sister Muyi, you don't know." Lu Ming snickered.
"You are right to think this way. The Japanese are our mortal enemies and our long-term enemies. We cannot attach too much importance to them. You make good use of this organization and do it boldly. I will tell you what happens if anything goes wrong." Sheng Youde
road.
"Old man, you have spoiled him rotten and you still dote on him so much. He is now like a star in the Blue Clothes Club building." Yuan Ziyuan said angrily.
"It's okay, I have sense. I know he has no selfish motives. Sheng Di is very different from him in this regard." Sheng Youde said cheerfully.
"How do you Blue Clothes Club plan to deal with the Japanese attack on Shanghai next? Do you already have a plan?" Sheng Muyi asked.
Lu Ming then explained his plan for the afternoon and wanted to hear Sheng Youde's advice.
The person he admires most is Sheng Youde. If anyone can point out the flaws and shortcomings in his plan, it is Sheng Youde.
"The plan is a little rough, but it's generally OK. However, you use people from the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea to deal with the Japanese. This is a very good idea, and it is also the only bright spot in this plan." Sheng Youde laughed.
"Ah, just a shining point?" Lu Ming said unconvinced.
"How many shining points do you want? One would be good." Sheng Youde smiled.
"Your plan doesn't include how to deal with Shanghai's underground party. Why is that?" Sheng Muyi asked.
"I deliberately weakened this. I can't prevent them from being anti-communist, but I try not to participate. As long as it is within my scope of authority, the Japanese will always be the only target." Lu Ming said.
"The time has come. If the Kuomintang and the Communist Party continue to fight within themselves and cannot keep their guns aligned with the outside world, the country will not be a country!" Sheng Youde was so angry that he slammed the wine glass in his hand on the table.
