Chapter 774 I Want All These Things
The secretary didn't know, but he knew that if you let a madman suffer such a huge loss, there was no way you could say that he would definitely swallow it.
She wanted to persuade them again, but Wilson spoke again. "They have already offended too many enemies. No matter what, they dare not declare war on our empire. It is us who should declare war, not them."
He paused, walked to the window, looked out into the distance for a long time, and then smiled; "Resentment is nothing but the barking of impotence. They can't do anything."
At Nanzō Yunko's home.
After returning from the base camp, Nanjō Yunko found Nanjō Rin alone in the backyard, making tea.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Nan Zaolin pushed a cup of tea out. "Sit down and have a drink."
Nanzō Yunko took a sip of the sweet tea and raised her head to ask, "Father, did you always know that no matter what we suggested, Mei would not agree?"
Nan Zaolin hummed, not denying it. "I know. Everything the Americans are doing is to prevent us from obtaining more supplies. Whether it's preventing us from building railways or attacking British colonies, it's all the same. They're not expanding restrictions on us again; that's their bottom line. They're trying to use this to get us to relax our suppression. That's absolutely impossible."
"Father, by doing this, you have completely tied Okamura Ningci and your daughter to Zhou Weiguo. If Shancheng loses the war this time, how will we deal with this matter?"
The prerequisite for cooperation with Shancheng is that Shancheng still exists. If Shancheng no longer exists, how can we cooperate with them?
"You really think Shancheng will collapse so easily, don't you?" Nan Zaolin took a sip of tea and closed his eyes. "Don't you know Shancheng's terrain? The battle at Songhu was so brutal. Not to mention, their equipment has been massively upgraded. They have over 700 fighters and bombers combined. Even their factories in Shancheng are producing and assembling fighter planes. What makes the headquarters think they will lose?"
It is impossible for them to lose, it is just a matter of consuming some of their strength. How will this consumption affect them?
"Girl, you've had no way out from the start, so why bother trying to find a way out of this impenetrable fortress?" Nan Zaolin put down his teacup and hummed. "The Foreign Minister has taken action, right?"
"Yes, Wilson and the others have categorically rejected everything."
"As expected, you must find a way to leak this matter. You must let the people of the empire know how excessive the Americans are. You must stir up hatred and conflict between the people and the Americans, just like Zhou Weiguo and his men instigated hatred between the people of the empire and the British."
"Is this really necessary?" asked Nanzō Yunko.
Nan Zaolin smiled and said, "If you don't do it, they will. Someone needs to do it anyway, and Qian Man has made another mistake. So, wouldn't it be better for you to make up for the mistake of not replying to the telegram a while ago?"
Zhou Weiguo did not go to Shanghai in the end, but returned to Hengyang along the original route.
He was indeed planning to go to Shanghai, and then to Tokyo. He was going to settle the matter of Xi'an and the little tricks of Okamura Neiji and others.
But Xiao Ya rejected the proposal.
In her words, the conditions for going to Tokyo are not yet ripe.
One reason was the ongoing struggle between Yamashiro and Tokyo, and this struggle wasn't favorable to Yamashiro. Going there now to cause trouble would likely lead to Okamura Yasuji taking action. It would be better to wait a while.
At the very least, we have to wait until the decisive battle between the Ninth War Zone and the 11th Army is decided.
Chao Xiang Xiuling also thought that this matter should wait, so Zhou Weiguo did not go.
But this trip couldn't be in vain, so he went to Suzhou City and killed several traitors who owned his own shop and the Chamber of Commerce.
Since this was done by the guerrillas, then it was done by his guerrillas and has nothing to do with me.
After staggering back to Hengyang, the car just stopped at the door, and Takeshita Shunyo, who was about to go out, said, "I'm back."
"Yeah." Zhou Weiguo jumped out of the car and came to Takeshita Shun; "Where's my dad?"
Takeshita Shun pointed in a random direction in the city; "He went out with your father-in-law. Maybe he's in the hospital, or maybe in a teahouse or a pub now."
After saying that, his eyes fell on the huge suitcases and he walked over to pick them up.
"It's pretty heavy. You must have dragged a lot of stuff on the way back."
Before Zhou Weiguo could answer, Takeshita Jun opened his throat and said, "The one inside is alive."
A group of people from the regiment headquarters rushed in quickly and carried the suitcase into the regiment headquarters like wolves. Li Mi, who was discussing the combat situation with Sano Tadayoshi, turned around and saw Fang Shengli opening the suitcase with a smile.
Exquisite gold and silver jewelry and ornately decorated watches clattered onto the table, and some even fell to the ground.
Li Mi felt so distressed when he saw this.
"Li Mi, Takahashi Ichi, don't stand there stupidly. Come and pick out your things. You arrived last, so it's your turn now." Fang Shengli waved with a smile.
Li Mi was a little confused. Alice next to him smiled indifferently. She saw her former self in those two confused eyes. With a smile, she told the story again. Then Li Mi and Takahashi Kazu looked at each other, and then came to the table of gold, silver and watches.
"Madam, can I take anything?" Takahashi wiped his hands, which were sweaty from excitement.
He had seen many good things, but gold and silver jewelry and other luxury goods were rare. After all, his family was not rich. He was able to work in the navy only because of his location. Otherwise, he would be just a little better off than a poor family.
These are all good things.
Xiao Ya picked up the teacup, glanced at him, and nodded. "Take whatever you like. There are only two."
There is no order without rules. This is the rule. People who come later can choose two things, which is also a rule. As for the things in front, no one else can be blamed. It can only be that they chose the independent regiment too far ago.
If they can't, that's their own problem.
"Thank you, Captain, and thank you all." Takahashi reached out and took out a watch and a pair of earrings.
Takahashi put on the watch with a smile, and then he realized that Li Mi was staring at the pile of things in a daze.
"Li Mi, why don't you choose?" Takahashi asked with a smile.
Li Mi looked at the things on the table and pointed at them unwillingly; "I want them all."
