Chapter 882 is gone, should I still worry about his revenge?
You can't even be sure of the situation yourself, so why are you talking nonsense here?
"I've said before that compared to African interests, we should prioritize Asian interests over those in Asia. And compared to the interests of Southeast Asia over those in South Asia, we should prioritize South Asia over those in Asia. This is because it's our second homeland. Every year, the wealth it creates for us amounts to a quarter of our entire colonial system. It's a crucial source of our empire's powerful navy, and we can't allow any problems to arise with it."
"Your Excellency the Prime Minister is right," Smith echoed. "Since we can't stop the opponent's attack, we can only sacrifice local benefits and let Yamashiro deal with it. Moreover, judging by the current situation, Tokyo has gradually formed a tacit understanding with Yamashiro that there will be no large-scale conflict. If they continue to do so, it will definitely be disadvantageous to us."
"It seems this is our only way out." Veskin sighed and then encouraged them. "However, this is only temporary. My empire's concessions are only temporary. One day, we will take back everything that belongs to us."
In Kunming City, George read the response from the mainland, and then staggered to the headquarters of the First Front Army of the Expeditionary Force against Burma, located next to Dianchi Lake in Kunming.
Asaka Hiderei was just about to go out and saw his car parked in the yard. She and Minamizō Akiko walked over side by side.
"George, it seems that you are here to tell us good news, right?"
George looked up at the scorching sun and tutted, "You two aren't planning on letting me talk right here, are you?"
"Please." Asaka Hiderei made a gesture of invitation and invited George into the small western-style building where the negotiating representatives lived next door.
Zhou Weiguo happened to be there too. When he saw George come in, he just glanced at him from the sofa and asked, "They agreed, right?"
"It seems you already knew they would agree." George handed the telegram to Zhou Weiguo and sat next to him. Seeing how calm he was, he asked, "Did you already know that we in China would definitely agree?"
"That's about right." Zhou Weiguo handed the cigarette to Zhou Weiguo. "You can't stop the Japanese attack. If you want to distract the Japanese, then the only one who can help you is Shancheng. If you want Shancheng to intervene, you can only temporarily agree to our request. So, the headquarters and I both believe that you will agree."
"When it comes to strategies and calculations, I have to say that you are still top-notch, but I have a question." George said after crossing his legs and lighting a cigarette.
Zhou Weiguo gestured to Xiang Xiuling to bring the tea and took a sip. "There's nothing you shouldn't ask between us. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask."
Taking a drag from his cigarette, George looked at the off-white ceiling with a puzzled look. "Aren't you afraid that the Empire will retaliate against you? After all, you're the first entity in all these years to force the Empire to sign such an unequal agreement. I don't think they'll be able to tolerate this kind of humiliation any longer."
"That requires them to have the energy and ability to retaliate, right? If they don't have that, or if he no longer exists, how can he retaliate? Can he rely on their words or the resentment in their hearts? My Shancheng is afraid of these rumors."
"Okay." George had no questions, or rather, even if he did, he didn't know how to ask. This man could shut you up with this sentence for any question related to the empire.
Tokyo.
At the Army Headquarters, Seishirō Sakata was so angry that he didn't even have lunch after receiving the agreement signed by Ying and Yamashiro in Kunming on joint defense against the Japanese army and on ceding Mandalay, Burma and the northern part to Yamashiro.
After walking around the office, he looked towards Okamura Neiji's room, feeling more and more that something was wrong.
No matter how much he looked down on Okamura Yasuji, who was just lucky, he had to admit that Okamura Yasuji was indeed more skilled in analysis and control. In this respect, even Doihara could not compare with him.
Walking up to the second floor, he pushed open the door and saw Okamura Neiji and Nanzō Unji standing in front of Myanmar, whispering something, and next to them was Yamadajima.
These three people all came from the 11th Army. The headquarters did not separate them because they cooperated well with each other.
"It seems that you have also received the news." Seishirō Sakatan came up to the three people and looked at the black line that had been planned. That was the dividing line. To the north was now the mountain city, and to the south, it was still a British colony.
"Yes, Sakata-kun." Okamura Neiji took a deep breath and asked, "I wonder what Sakata-kun thinks about this matter?"
Sakatan Seishirō shook his head. "Honestly, my mind is completely confused right now. I don't know how to evaluate this matter, nor how my empire should proceed."
"That depends on what the Prime Minister and the cabinet plan," said Nanzō Yunko from the side.
Sakatan Seishirō looked at Nanjō Yunko and said, "Ms. Yunko seems to have her own opinion on this matter.
"General, Minister," Nanzō Yunko said, pulling out a command staff from the side. "The decision made by our Army Headquarters is to quickly capture Southeast Asia, secure the necessary equipment for an attack on South Asia, and coordinate with Berlin to prevent them from sending our troops to Canada. If this plan is followed, I believe that after we advance to the vicinity of Mandalay, we should avoid engaging the Yamashiro army, then quickly move westward and launch a surprise attack on South Asia."
Okamura Neiji also nodded. "Avoiding a battle with the main force of Yamashiro and thus buying time for our army's attack on South Asia is indeed the best option."
"Will the Yamashiro army allow us to attack without any intervention?" Sakatan Seishirō frowned. He had thought so too, but he was worried that the agreement signed between the Yamashiro army and the British would expose the troops to attack from both sides.
"General, Yamashiro's ultimate goal is simply to ensure the security of its southwest. We pose no threat to their southwest, so why would they go to war with us?" Nanzō Yunko smiled. "As for the agreement you mentioned, General?"
The agreement does have a significant binding effect, but what is it targeting? It can only be binding when both parties have equal rights and good interests involved. Without these,
What kind of agreement is this? It's just a piece of waste paper.
