Strictly speaking, the battle in northern Myanmar is just a Shantou border conflict, but any sensitive person will smell something unusual. This is the conflict between ancient China and the world's hegemons. It is even said that this war is an important symbol.
, China has broken free from its own shackles, and the established powers have declined. This is an irreversible trend.
China's tough attitude toward territorial sovereignty issues will greatly shake up the world's colonial order. After all, the conflict in northern Myanmar is changing the world structure. Countries such as the United States and Japan, which grew rapidly during World War I, used China and
The conflict in the UK shows the weakness of the so-called hegemon Britain. This is a jungle world. Once you show your weakness, you will be completely eliminated.
The shock to China was even more astonishing. China was finally able to push forward and dare to use force to safeguard its power. Moreover, the frontline battlefield was fought very well. Good news came frequently. Zhu Qinglan commanded the army and had surrounded 30,000 British and Indian troops.
Myitkyina was reached, and the British reinforcements were blocked from Bhamo. Now that Myitkyina is in danger, China has undoubtedly gained the advantage in the war.
Since the Chinese can defeat the British, can those domestic concessions still exist? The people in Chongqing, Hankou, Guangzhou and other places have long cut off the supply of the concessions. Originally, they could still rely on the ocean to bribe some gangster groups to help traffic some supplies.
The British Yangtze River Fleet was also mobilized. Although the concession was not doing well, it could still be maintained. However, as China's advantages in Myanmar became more and more obvious, China's Yangtze River Cruise Fleet was also dispatched in large numbers. Any Chinese ship that dared to deliver supplies to the concession
All were seized, and there were several confrontations with the British fleet. The hostility between the two sides became increasingly tense.
Although China's Yangtze River Fleet only has some shallow-water gunboats, which have disadvantages in terms of tonnage and artillery, the Yangtze River Fleet has one of its biggest advantages, and that is air cover. The Chinese fleet did not give in in the face of the British warships, and the two sides were at war with each other.
It was on the edge, but in the end Britain chose to give in.
Fleet Commander Tang Dingming won the confrontation. Jiujiang, as the base of the Yangtze River Fleet, was already in jubilation. The whole city was setting off firecrackers to celebrate the victory of the confrontation. Although the former governor of Hunan condescended to be condescending,
, became the commander of the Yangtze River Fleet, but now this kind of honor is not something that a captain can enjoy.
With the retreat of the British Yangtze River fleet, the existence of the concession has come to an end. Who knows that the first person to come to negotiate is actually the Japanese, and the person who comes is also a big shot. It is the last elder of Japan, Saionji Konobo. This old man
This guy just participated in the Paris Peace Conference some time ago. At the Peace Conference, Saionji Temple strictly abided by his duties and only cared about the affairs of his own three-quarters of an acre in the Far East. He didn’t say a word about the European order. Of course, he didn’t say a word about Japan’s Far East.
The interests are not compromised at all, which adds a lot of points to the Japanese government.
Ordinary things will never alarm this old guy. After seeing the report about the Russian Far East, the old guy was completely tempted by those countless resources. Resources are a curse for Japan to move towards industrialization. If it can swallow the Far East in one go, it will definitely be
Due to his special status, Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple visited in secret, bringing only a few capable entourages with him to meet Qiao Yu in Wuchang!
"Mr. Saionji, I heard that your country is going to grant you the title of Duke. This is the Emperor's recognition of your outstanding achievements. It is really gratifying!" Qiao Yu smiled and greeted the nearly seventy-year-old Japanese man.
Although Saionji Konobo is known as Japan's liberal politician who opposes the deification of the emperor and Japan's path to fascism, the Japanese today are essentially virtuous and have the same greed for China. Therefore, although Qiao Yu's face
With a smile, but not too much awe, as if the person in front of him was not a big shot in Japanese politics, but just an ordinary bad old man.
Xiyuanji Gongwang was even more surprised that since the outbreak of World War I, China has undergone earth-shaking changes, its industrial strength has increased rapidly, and it has also sent troops to exert its prestige in Europe. Now it is challenging the authority of the United Kingdom, regaining the concession, and leading all of this.
The young people in front of me are the young people who are not yet thirty years old. They have just entered the political arena at this age. At that time, Japan had not yet won the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894, and Japan was still in the shadow of China.
Suddenly, times have changed and I have become an old man.
"Qiao Jun, your country's actions in northern Myanmar are completely correct. The Japanese government greatly appreciates this decisive action to regain sovereignty and will give China huge moral support. We are all yellow people, and our common enemy is white people.
They covet our wealth and want to enslave the whole world, we must unite!"
"Chaha, Elder of Saionji Temple, Japan has long since achieved national independence. Is there any wealth left in the hands of white people? If we talk about wealth, it all belongs to the Chinese and has nothing to do with Japan?"
Qiao Yu knew very well that he could never be polite to these Japanese people, and there was no need to show off for such secret talks. Now Japan had its own needs and was not worried about the collapse of the talks between the two sides. Moreover, Qiao Yu was not interested in Xiyuan Temple's use of this kind.
The attitude towards race is very dissatisfying. Although white people are not a thing, do the Japanese have any good intentions? I am afraid they are the ones who covet China the most.
"Qiao Jun, China and the two countries are friendly neighbors. China suffers and Japan feels the same. Your attitude is really inappropriate. Besides, my grade is more than twice yours. Shouldn't I treat the elderly
Are you being polite?" Saionji Konobo, as a veteran of Japan's political arena, has astonishing power in his hands. If it weren't for Japan's long-term interests, he wouldn't have come all the way to China. Besides, the Japanese today are naturally
There is a feeling of superiority, and he is obviously very dissatisfied with Qiao Yu's attitude.
"Senior Xiyuanji, we represent Taiwan's national interests. If you really want to improve relations between China and Japan, you should return Shandong to China!"
Xiyuanji Gongwang did not expect that Qiao Yu would be so careless about his own face. He was suddenly speechless. Shandong is the power that Japan finally obtained from the Paris Peace Conference. How could it be willing to spit it out now? Another person's negotiation suddenly stopped.
caught in a stalemate.
After a stalemate, Qiao Yu smiled slightly and said: "Sir, Sir, what you want to talk about when you come to China is nothing more than the Far East resources issue. We might as well make an announcement, put aside the dispute for the time being, let's seek common ground while reserving differences, and reach a cooperation agreement on the Far East issue first.
!”
This is the main purpose of Saionji Temple's visit to China. After careful study by the Japanese, they believe that the resources of the Far East are the key to helping Japan become a powerful country. Therefore, they must try their best to obtain the Far East. No matter what the cost, it is worth it.
, and if you want to occupy the Far East, you cannot do without a country. And now that Qiao Yu is the most favored force in China, it is absolutely necessary to reach an agreement with him.
"Qiao Jun, seeking common ground while reserving differences is a very good idea. The Japanese government is willing to hand over all power in the Middle East to China. China should also send troops together with Japan to intervene in the Russian civil war with arms, support a Belarusian political house in the Far East, and then assist Japanese individuals.
Far East Resources!”
"Mr. Elder, if these Chinese people choose to cooperate with Russia, they will drive the Japanese interventionist forces out of Russia!"
"Qiao Jun, what do you mean by this?"
"Humph, Mr. Senator, the conditions you gave are too inappropriate. The areas east of the Ussuri River in the outer northeast, such as Khabarovsk and Vladivostok, are China's inherent territories. They were plundered by Russia. Now these territories should be returned to China's remaining talents.
It is something that Japan can control, and China will never help Japan occupy Chinese territory!"
Xiyuanji also knew that he was a bit low, but this was a matter of asking for a lot of money. But when he heard that Qiao Yu actually wanted to take back all the territory originally occupied by Russia, then there would be nothing left in Japan.
More than one million square kilometers of land are located in the south, and the climate is barely suitable. It would be too difficult to find a place further north!
"Qiao Jun, this allocation is too inappropriate. You must know that China currently has no ability to take back these territories and has to rely on the Japanese army!"
"Mr. Elder, I want to tell you some good news. China's new patrol envoy to the three eastern provinces, General Zhang Zuoshuang, has led the Chinese Army to cross Heilongjiang and liberated Hailanpao. I believe that the Chinese Army will soon remove the Russians from
If Japan doesn't take action to drive them out of this land, it may be too late!"
Xiyuanji Gongwang was also surprised at this time. Japan has spies all over the Northeast. How come no concubines showed up and Zhang Zuoshuang succeeded? It is simply weird. However, Qiao Yu did not deceive himself on this issue. See
You really need to act quickly when coming to Japan.
"Jun Qiao, our Empire of Japan has let go of your two warships in a benevolent manner. If Jun Qiao is still so unwilling to cooperate on the issue of the Far East, Japan will not allow itself to be deceived!"
Xiyuanji Gongwang showed the ugly face of the Japanese again, tore off the moral image, and threatened to use force!
"Sir, your Excellency, safeguarding China's territorial interests is what all Chinese people are accused of. There is no room for negotiation on the issue of sovereignty. Of course, under the premise of determining sovereignty, we can have more flexible economic cooperation. The Far East is still very big, except
There are too many resources outside the Northeast. If Japan misses this opportunity, it will regret it for the rest of its life!"
The face of Gong Wang of Xiyuan Temple was uncertain, and there was a sparkle in his eyes. He did not look like an ancient old man at all.
"Jun Qiao, Vladivostok must be completely open to Japan as a free port, and Sakhalin Island must also be owned by Japan. In addition, China must provide Japan with food and other material support to help Japan gain a foothold in the Far East!"
"Absolutely, but the prerequisite is that we can successfully tear Russia apart. If we cannot stop the majority party's troops, all our ideas will be empty talk. We must act faster. Kolchak has already
It won't last long. In addition, the Japanese concessions in Chongqing and Hankou had better be evacuated as soon as possible, otherwise China will use its own methods to get them back. This can be regarded as Japan's show of sincerity in cooperation."
Xiyuanji Gongwang had a sullen face. Losing the concession would mean losing the bridgehead for infiltration into China. There are a hundred old people who are unwilling to do so, but the situation in Belarus is indeed not very good. If Belarus is defeated, then Japan will
Having to face the majority party's army alone, and without handing over the concession, Qiao Yu, the warlord leader, will never cooperate with Japan sincerely, so he has to agree to this condition.dd
