Zhou Weiguo looked at the telegram in his hand and frowned. He didn't know what tricks the Japanese were playing. "Shengli, do you have any specific information?"
Fang Shengli shook his head, "Not yet, but since the Japanese have sent such a telegram, I think they will send someone to discuss it."
Zhou Weiguo nodded, then shook his head, "No matter what conditions the Japanese offer, I will not sign this."
"Yes." Fang Shengli nodded.
"I don't want to become the second Li Hongzhang." Zhou Weiguo thought for a while and said, "Unless the Japanese retreat all the troops in the country."
"This is definitely impossible." Fang Shengli shook his head, "The Japanese just want to sign an armistice agreement with us, and they continue to attack."
"But as long as they continue to attack, it is impossible to sign an armistice agreement with us. We will not sign it unless he signs this agreement with the National Government." Zhou Weiguo thought for a while and said, "It is really possible for the Japanese to sign such an agreement.
Agreement, once the two countries sign an armistice agreement, both the Japanese and the Republic of China government will have time to prepare their armaments, Japan will have time to digest the occupied land, and the Nationalist government will have time to continue equipping its troops."
"That's true." Fang Shengli nodded, "But once such an armistice agreement is signed, although it will be beneficial to both sides, the domestic industry will not grow, and the advantage over the Japanese will be greater."
"Yes!" Zhou Weiguo nodded, "I hope that some people will not be blinded by the immediate interests."

"The Japanese are playing this trick again?" Li Weimin frowned.
"No, the devils are serious this time." Liu Yuan shook his head and said.
"But this kind of agreement, logically, cannot be signed by our local army." Li Weimin said.
"That's right, once the Weiguo sign is signed, the name of traitor cannot be escaped." Liu Yuan nodded.
"It's just that I'm afraid that the Japanese will give them great benefits." Li Weimin sighed, "The Japanese are now afraid of Weiguo, and they are already afraid to a certain extent."
"We have to remind Weiguo about this matter, so that even if the Japanese sign a contract, they have to go to Nanchang, and then ask the Chongqing government to send someone to negotiate." Liu Yuandao.
"Yes, it should be like this."
…
Nanchang
"Shengli, send a telegram to the principal and ask him to send someone with full authority to take charge of this matter. Just say that our independent division does not accept peace talks, and we do not have the authority." Zhou Weiguo said, "Then send a clear telegram. If
The Japanese are really interested in peace talks, so let them send people to Nanchang and talk to people in Chongqing at the same time."
"Okay." Fang Shengli nodded.

"Who are you planning to send from the base camp to the peace talks this time?" Shun Tada frowned and asked Juichi Terauchi, who had just arrived from China, in front of him.
"That's me." Terauchi Shouichi smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect that after more than a year, I would come back and take on this task."
"Wakarima Shida." Shun Tada nodded, "Then, what about the base camp's bottom line?"
"If Zhou Weiguo accepts separate peace talks, then we and Zhou Weiguo's troops will not attack each other." Touichi Terauchi said, "However, there is a high possibility that Zhou Weiguo will not accept separate peace talks. Therefore, if it is facing the Chongqing government, the bottom line
It is also based on the existing basis and we will not use weapons for the time being."
"There's more going on there." Tada Shun nodded, "Is the situation in the country that bad?"
"Yes." Terauchi nodded, "Otherwise, there would be no peace talks."
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"The independent division made a clear statement."
"read!"
"Hi!" the soldier nodded, and then read, "I would like to inform the people of the Republic of China that Weiguo is no more than a lieutenant general and division commander. I have no qualifications to negotiate peace with Japan. Moreover, even if I am an independent division, I will not
To negotiate peace with Japan, we will persist in the war of resistance to the end. However, if Japan wants peace talks, please send representatives to Nanchang to hold peace talks with representatives sent by the Republic of China government."
"As expected." Temple Shouyi frowned, "Are you going to Nanchang?"
"No, the location of the peace talks needs to be changed." Jun Tada shook his head, "Zhou Weiguo has many experiences of assassinating high-level officials of our army. It is best not to go to Nanchang under the Temple Cabinet."
"But, Zhou Weiguo's conditions are here." Temple Shouyi frowned.
"Since his independent division does not want to negotiate with us, then we naturally do not need to accept his conditions. If this is the case, we can directly talk to the Chongqing government. After all, his independent division is under the leadership of the Chongqing government."
Tada Shunchi.
"Well, that's all." Terauchi nodded, saying that dealing with the Chongqing government is actually simpler, "In this way, it's actually relatively simple. Whether it's the empire or China, it will take some time to buffer."
"Yeah." Tada Shun nodded, and then sighed.

Chongqing
"What, the Japanese want to negotiate with us again? Not with the independent division?" Lao Jiang looked at the Japanese statement and said angrily, "What does he think of me? Just because Weiguo rejected them?"
"Principal, calm down." Dai Li said, "However, it is also beneficial for us to negotiate with the Japanese. As long as the negotiation is completed, we will have more time to deploy defenses and even counterattacks."
"Of course I know this." Lao Jiang said, "But, after all, this is a loss of face for the country."
"Face is lost when it is lost. The benefits gained are real." Dai Li said, "Besides, when we have enough troops, we can counterattack."
"Humph." Lao Jiang still waved his hands angrily. Of course, he did not blame Zhou Weiguo, but the Japs' move did give him some hope, "Call everyone to a meeting and see who will be responsible for this matter."
"yes!"
…
Zhou Weiguo looked at the telegram in his hand and smiled, "In this way, we will have enough time to recruit troops. In fact, we also need buffer time. Let the principal quarrel with the Japanese."
"Hahaha." Fang Shengli laughed, "This also shows that the situation of the Japanese is not optimistic."
"Yes, just how many people have been killed by the Japs in our hands. I estimate that the situation in the Japs' country is indeed a bit chaotic." Zhou Weiguo said with a smile, "It is enough to slowly squeeze out the war potential of the Japs."
"Yes." Fang Shengli sighed, "It can be said that the Japanese have sacrificed everything for this war."
"However, the devils continue to transport plundered resources to the country, including our gold, silver, antiques, etc." Zhou Weiguo said, "It's just that they haven't made effective use of these resources yet."
"Yes!" Fang Shengli sighed, "I can only hope that after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese will pay for the war."
Zhou Weiguo sighed. Historically, Japan surrendered unconditionally. It only allowed Japan to return the previously lost territory. There was no war reparations, etc. He hoped that in this time and space, improvements could be made.
