When Takeshita Jun saw the Chinese commander-in-chief for the first time, there was not much excitement. On the contrary, the commander-in-chief was surprised when he saw Takeshita Jun. Most Japanese people are not very tall.
He is tall, but Takeshita Shun is different. He is a relatively tall Japanese person that the commander-in-chief has ever seen.
"Sit down." Chairman Jiang smiled and then remembered that the information said that this Japanese lieutenant general was a few years younger than Zhou Weiguo.
"Thank you." Takeshita Jun was not too polite and sat down in front of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. Then, someone immediately served tea.
"I don't know, what is the purpose of General Takeshita coming to China?" Chairman Chiang narrowed his eyes and went straight to the point.
Takeshita Jun also smiled and said, "Actually, I want to talk to you, Chairman Chiang, about Sino-Japanese relations."
“China-Japan relations?”
"Yes." Takeshita Jun nodded, "I don't know, what does Chairman Chiang think of Sino-Japanese relations?"
Seeing Takeshita Shun kicking the ball back, the Chairman frowned. This young man is not easy to fool. "If we want to talk about Sino-Japanese relations, we must first talk about the geographical location of China and Japan."
"We are neighboring countries separated by a strip of water." Jun Takeshita answered quite frankly. From a geographical point of view, the two countries are indeed separated by only a piece of sea.
The chairman nodded, "Historically, the relationship between China and Japan was quite friendly during the Tang and Song Dynasties."
Takeshita Jun nodded, "That's true. At that time, Japan also sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to learn advanced technology and culture from China."
"We, China, have always regarded Confucianism as the core of governing the country. Confucius once said that not teaching but punishing them is called cruelty. In other words, not educating the princes in war but killing them by force can be called cruelty.
." The chairman curled his lips, "So, historically, China has always been tolerant and generous, and can teach you advanced culture and technology, so that you can continue to make progress. But why, your country actually started to change its policy,
Launched an invasion against China?"
Takeshita Jun was silent. He did not deny Chiang Kai-shek's words. Looking at it this way, Japan has indeed repaid kindness with hatred, but there are so many reasons between countries. It is just a conflict of interest. "For this, I am very sorry. If you can, I will
I don’t want this war to happen either.”
Chairman Chiang was stunned. Emotionally, Jun Takeshita is still a pacifist. "So, what does your country mean now?"
"Your Excellency, Chairman, I am deeply sorry for the occurrence of this war, but I cannot stop it." Takeshita Jun said helplessly, "Now, I come to China in the hope that this war can be resolved peacefully."
"A peaceful solution?" The Chairman smiled and shook his head. "So many people have died, how can we solve it peacefully? Are you planning to withdraw troops unconditionally?"
"Your Excellency Chairman, you know that this is not possible at present." Takeshita Shun was helpless.
"Then how can this matter be resolved peacefully?" The chairman raised his eyebrows and looked at Takeshita Jun.
"We can withdraw our troops, but your country also needs to pay some price." Takeshita Jun said.
"The price? What kind of price?"
"Let's say, some reparations."
Chairman Jiang's face darkened, "Compensation? Do you think you won?"
"No, we are just looking for a peaceful solution to this war." Takeshita Jun shook his head, "There are no winners in this war. Not only did you lose countless soldiers, but our Empire of Japan also suffered countless casualties."
"Then where do you have the confidence to ask the Republic of China to pay you compensation?"
"Because the Eighth Route Army is getting stronger day by day!" Takeshita Jun smiled, "Now, they are too big to lose their tail."
Chairman Chiang's face became even more gloomy, "I can wait for the Eighth Route Army issue to be resolved peacefully after this war is over, or we can have another showdown. But this is China's internal affairs and has nothing to do with your country!
The country wants to use this to threaten me, Mr. Jiang, but it’s a bit naive.”
"It's not a threat." Takeshita Jun shook his head calmly, "It's just providing a second option to the Chairman."
Chairman Chiang was silent for a long time, and then said, "If this is the case, General Takeshita please come back first. I, Jiang, will not agree." He made a gesture to see off the guests.
"Then I'll go back first, but I still have a merciless request." Takeshita Jun naturally knew that this kind of thing would not come to an end so quickly, and since his intention was conveyed, there was nothing left to say.
This choice has been given to the National Government. How to choose, and even whether it will choose, is the National Government's consideration. But Takeshita Shun is confident that the National Government can refuse firmly now, and as time goes by, there will definitely be a choice.
own considerations.
"Please say."
"I want to see more of China's mountains and rivers, so I also hope that the Chairman of the Generalissimo will allow me to move around freely. At the same time, Chairman Chiang, please rest assured that I will not play any tricks." Takeshita Jun simply does not want to be under house arrest.
After all, if you stay in the same place for a long time, you will get bored. "After all, the situation between China and Japan is beyond my control."
Jiang Zhongzheng frowned slightly, then nodded, "I will give instructions on this matter later."
"Thank you, Your Excellency Chairman." Takeshita Jun smiled, turned around and left. For him, he just had to watch the situation develop. He had already expressed his wish, so for the time being, China and Japan would not be able to fight.
Although the fight is temporarily unavailable, his initial goal has been achieved. Of course, he also hopes that China and Japan can resolve the current situation as soon as possible. However, he also knows that this matter should not be rushed. The choice lies with the National Government and not with him.
However, he also has a veto power.
Chairman Chiang sat in his seat and tapped his fingers on the table, trying to figure out what Japan's purpose was for this trick. After thinking about it, he only thought of the Japanese's purpose of mobilizing power to fight against the Americans.
He really didn't know if the Japanese had any other purposes, but this matter was still very strange.
"Yunong, tell me, what tricks do the Japanese play?"
Dai Li stood next to Chairman Chiang and frowned, "I don't know, but it will delay time. Moreover, the Japanese may really hope to end the military confrontation in China as soon as possible. Otherwise, given the Japanese temperament,
, will not just ask for compensation.”
The chairman was silent, "Let's have a meeting to discuss what tricks the Japanese are playing, and sort out all the recent information about the Japanese. It must be analyzed!"
"yes!"
…
When Takeshita Jun walked out of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's residence, he looked at the sun in the sky. In Chongqing at the end of August, it was as sultry as a stove.
"Next, it depends on what you think."
Smiling, Takeshita Jun shook his head again and walked forward.
