Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 450 Negotiation is procrastination

The bottom line of the negotiation given by Chairman Chiang to Wang Chonghui was to maintain the status quo. The Japanese were no longer allowed to get involved in Greater Shanghai. They could withdraw their troops from East China and retain the Japanese Concession. However, the Japanese must not station troops in Shanghai and its surrounding areas, and China would only send police troops.

, to maintain public order in Shanghai.

But now the conditions given by the Japanese are to restore the original status quo. It is said that Chairman Chiang has given a bottom line, but he will not give it. Wang Chonghui also thinks that the Japanese are ridiculous. Are they here to negotiate? They are simply signing an alliance under the city.

Ridiculous, Wang Chonghui shook his head repeatedly, looking at Konohashi Taro's big mouth, and said secretly in his heart.

After finishing speaking, Taro Konohashi looked up at Wang Chonghui, the chief representative of the Chinese side, waiting for his reply. He knew very well that with the power of victory, China would not be able to agree to such harsh conditions, and he was like a shrewd businessman.

Offer a high price and then bargain.

Judging from his experience, this negotiation, without many bargainings, will not produce any results. It is normal for it to drag on for a month or two, and the base camp also requires the attention of the Chinese Supreme Command.

Attracted into this negotiation, when the situation changes, by the time the Chinese realize it, it will be too late, and the result can only be beneficial to the Japanese.

Wang Chonghui knew in his heart that as the chief representative, he was just trying to master some basic diplomatic etiquette and procedures in order to be on par with the Japanese foreign minister. In fact, the person who had the overall control was Deputy Commissioner Tang, who was sitting next to him, his expression unchanged.

Chairman, Chairman Chiang told him so, so he turned his attention to Tang Qiuli.

Tang Qiuli smiled, with unspeakable contempt and sarcasm in his smile. Was the Japanese kicked in the head by a donkey? In the face of their own defeat in Songhu, they still proposed such shameless and even ridiculous conditions. They had no chance of negotiating.

Sincerely, he was not even interested in talking nonsense with them. He motioned to Wang Chonghui to come up with our conditions.

The conditions of the two sides are far apart, and there is no basis for negotiation at all. Those Japanese generals threatened aggressively. The Empire of Japan has tolerated the brutal behavior of the Chinese troops. Don't regard our tolerance as weakness and can be bullied.

!

When General Zhang Zhizhong heard this, he was furious on the spot. He had fought the Japanese for more than ten days. More than 80,000 of his soldiers fell on the outer positions of Shanghai. The Japanese still talked about tolerance. It was really ridiculous. He

He directly said to the Japanese generals: "Are you Japanese weak?

What a big joke. Who instigated the August 13 Incident in Shanghai? Who fired at our soldiers first? You know very well that Shanghai is our territory, and we used tens of thousands of our soldiers.

How can I let what I have gained in exchange for blood and life be given to defeated generals like you!"

What Zhang Zhizhong said hurt the wounds of the Japanese. Several senior Japanese generals became angry and glared at Zhang Zhizhong fiercely, but they had nothing to say. The Marine Corps stationed in Shanghai was completely wiped out, and Matsui's Shanghai Expeditionary Force was beaten.

It is an indisputable fact that you will lose miserably. No matter how hard you speak, you will lose with your fists.

Tang Qiuli nodded slightly towards General Zhang Zhi. These words are enough. It is not enough to treat these Japanese with politeness. It is just adding a pinch of salt to the wounds of the Japanese. It is best to break up the negotiations. Chairman Chiang Kai-shek

Throw away your illusions and fight the Japanese with all your heart. You will also save yourself the trouble of wasting your time and making the Japanese feel uncomfortable.

He politely said to Kono Hashi Taro: "Mr. Kono, I want to ask you about the current situation of some old friends." Kono looked confused. He didn't know which old friends Tang Qiuli was talking about? Furthermore,

, this Chinese devil did not ask himself about his friend's reason.

"How about your country's General Muto Nobuyoshi, General Anichiro Tashiro and General Seishiro Itagaki come in?" As soon as Tang Qiuli finished speaking, Zhang Zhizhong and others couldn't help it, and they burst into laughter despite the fact that they were in a diplomatic occasion.

, these unlucky ghosts, who were once military-level commanders of the Japanese side, all fell into the hands of Vice Chairman Tang. One of them, Itagaki, was even a victim of the sword. Vice Chairman Tang deliberately let Japan

People cry!

Kono's face turned livid, and the senior Japanese generals were gnashing their teeth, wishing they could eat Tang Qiuli, but this Chinese devil looked innocent and had a harmless smile, which made him even more hateful. However,

What can I say? All of them were killed by this person, and the negotiations ended on bad terms.

After all, Taro Konohashi was a senior diplomat. Before leaving, he suggested that since the positions of China and Japan were very different and there was no basis for negotiation, he needed to ask his country's government whether the conditions could be modified. He also suggested that China should modify the conditions so that the positions of both parties could be reconciled.

They came to an agreement, laying the foundation for the next negotiation, and suggested that a second round of negotiations be held three days later, with both parties coming up with revised conditions.

Wang Chonghui also meant the same thing. There was no way to continue the discussion. He needed to go to Chairman Chiang and report the Japanese conditions. Chairman Chiang would probably be very angry.

Sure enough, after listening to Wang Chonghui's report, Chairman Jiang turned blue with anger and cursed repeatedly: "Mother Xipi! The Japanese bully others too much. This is an alliance under the city. Tell the Japanese that not a single soldier of his can enter Shanghai!" Jiang

The Chairman is angry, but he still hopes to reach an agreement with the Japanese that is beneficial to China.

He made some modifications to China's bottom line. He could restore the Japanese Concession and allow Japanese expatriates to continue to enjoy the same treatment as other great powers. Japan could send police forces to work with the Chinese police force to maintain the security of the Japanese Concession. Others must not

Even

Change, Chairman Chiang has lingering fears about the presence of Japanese troops in Shanghai. Nanjing is too close to Shanghai. The Japanese troops approaching Shanghai can directly threaten Nanjing. Shanghai is the front line. If the Nationalist Government seizes Nanjing, it will be exposed to Japanese troops.

Under the front, the danger is extremely high.

And Tang Qiuli had long forgotten the negotiation. He really had no interest in thinking about this deceptive farce. Even if the Japanese did not make such ridiculous demands and agreed to the National Government's conditions, Songhu would

The troops in the area will not relax their vigilance at all, because this so-called negotiation is simply a smoke screen.

He used these few days to rush to the Sulu Mobile Corps, which was stationed in Hangzhou Bay. Two infantry regiments, a heavy artillery regiment, and an air defense regiment were reinforced from the Taihang Mountain base area. They had arrived on September 30. The infantry regiment was officially

They were incorporated into the two brigades originally commanded by Chang Feng, bringing these two brigades back to full strength.

Tang Qiuli took a comprehensive look at the defense system of the army and couldn't stop praising it. Brother Qiu Sheng said with a smile: "Commander, this is all the credit of the chief of staff. He conducted the defense system based on his experience in Shanghai's peripheral defense war."

He made a lot of improvements and buried all the mines in the base area underground. If the Japanese plan to land from here, they will suffer a lot!"

Chang Feng just smiled. Tang Qiuli looked at this rising general in the army with admiration. He already had plans to let him take charge of his own duties. When the soldiers saw the division commander arriving at the front line in person, they were so excited that they rushed to talk to him. Su

The Lu Mobile Corps was developed on the basis of the troops of the 1st and 2nd brigades of the ** Division who stayed in Dingbian. It turned out that those veteran soldiers all served as battalion, company and platoon-level commanders, and the vast majority of the soldiers were still the first

This was the first time I met their legendary teacher.

These soldiers couldn't get enough of everything about him. They kept pestering the company and platoon leaders to tell stories about the former ***. When they met today, they were so young that they were surprised. He didn't look like a majestic general.

He never smiles or talks, and is so kind to everyone, almost like his younger brother. His fear has been completely eliminated, and he feels that he is lucky to follow such a person.

If you think about it carefully, there is an indescribable energy about the teacher, especially his eyes. When he looks at you, it seems that he can see through all your inner thoughts, making you feel like you are following him wherever you go.

, Tang Qiuli was very happy to have close contact and communication with the soldiers, especially the newly recruited soldiers. Being with them, he felt like he had returned to the past joy of going into battle to kill the enemy and kill the Japanese with his own hands.

This feeling made him feel very comfortable. Since he opened such a big stand, the opportunity to dismount the troops has been deprived by Mei Ting and Shan Hu. At noon, he refused Qiu Sheng and Chang Feng to command.

At the request of the troops to eat, I ran to an infantry company, crowded together with a large group of soldiers, and had a hearty meal.

While he was enjoying his meal, the soldiers around him put down their rice bowls and stood at attention. The originally lively scene suddenly turned serious. He raised his head in surprise and saw Mei Ting looking at him strangely, followed by eight soldiers from the special guard. It turned out that

, as soon as Mei Ting turned around, Tang Qiuli disappeared, and he couldn't be found anywhere in the headquarters.

This is the front line. Not only are there troops from the ** Division, not far ahead, there are also troops from other systems. The personnel are messy. No one can guarantee whether there are Japanese spies among them. This is a good opportunity to make a move. Shan Hu is also

In a hurry, he gave a few of Tang Qiuli's personal guards a lesson, and everyone split up to look for them. The couple still had telepathy, so Mei Ting caught them on the spot.

The soldiers may not know that this is Mrs. Tang, but they recognize her military rank, which is reserved only for regiment leaders. Behind her are several officers whose equipment is obviously different from their own and full of murderous intent. They know that this beautiful colonel is no ordinary soldier.

Everyone was surprised when they saw the division commander being escorted away by the female colonel with his head downcast.

It happened that the company commander heard that the division commander had arrived in his company and hurried over. He only saw the division commander's back. Seeing the soldiers like this, he told them that she was our division commander's wife. The soldiers suddenly realized that they burst into laughter and commanded

A division commander with hundreds of thousands of troops must be in pain and happiness to have such a beautiful and powerful wife!

Tang Qiuli was complained by Mei Ting. Everyone is worried about you, and there are no guards. It is very dangerous to run out alone. As he said it, there seemed to be tears in his beautiful big eyes. Tang Qiuli was so scared that he hurried away.

After making a promise that she would never do it again, Mei Ting smiled happily.

In the afternoon, Tang Qiuli arrived at the forefront position. In front of him was the defensive position of Zhang Fakui's Eighth Army. He observed carefully with a telescope, and his face gradually darkened, leaving Qiu Sheng and Chang Feng scratching their heads.
