Chapter 568 We should still be able to get some equipment
What does it mean?
It means a decline in the empire's international status and that the empire's once glorious diplomacy has been ruthlessly torn apart in this agreement, and it may not be able to recover for a long time from now on.
But the problem is.
Empire, it seems there is no choice.
"Why aren't you talking?" The bearded man looked at the people present. The hesitant look gave him a bad feeling. He felt that the people in front of him were willing to agree to this.
Still no one spoke, the bearded man looked at the Defense Minister. "You are the military commander, tell me, do we need to accept this agreement?"
The Minister of Defense was stunned. What should he say?
Their army only exists to serve government affairs. If you say we should fight, we will fight. If you say we shouldn't fight, we won't fight either. It's useless to ask me about this matter.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, our army will always obey the decisions of your Excellency the Prime Minister and the High Command."
Damn it. This bastard is really good at shirking responsibility. The Foreign Minister next to him cursed in his heart.
With these words, he immediately withdrew from the ensuing storm.
He can run, but can I run?
Sure enough, before he could even take a step back, the Prime Minister's gaze fell on him.
The same words were spoken by the Minister of Defense just now, and he felt that it was nothing. But now, this voice was like a devilish sound, lingering in his mind.
"What do you think?"
The Foreign Minister suddenly realized that the others were looking at him.
He put his hands into his sleeves and squeezed them, and came to the Prime Minister. "Your Excellency, there is a saying in the mountain city, 'As long as the mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.'"
Understood.
The bearded man looked at him with a strange look and said sinisterly, "You mean, we have to sign this agreement and then submit to their tyranny, is that right?"
This……
You can't say that.
The Foreign Minister looked at the people present. Everyone knew that the Empire had no choice in this matter. He couldn't be the only one to persuade them.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, we have already forced them into a desperate situation this time. If we still insist, the situation will probably be even more unfavorable to us."
More disadvantageous?
The Prime Minister suddenly thought of something and stared at the red carpet on the ground in silence.
If they did not accept it, Berlin would most likely attack when seeing the rapid progress of the Japanese army.
If they come in, I will be attacked from two sides.
The Empire, can it bear it?
"Can we drive them out within two months?" The Prime Minister still wanted to insist that if the fighting in the north could be ended within two months, the empire would not be afraid of this agreement.
How can they influence the affairs of the empire?
Two months?
The Minister of Defense and the Chief of Staff looked at each other and shook their heads slightly.
They estimated that they would not be able to overcome the enemy even if they were given two months, let alone two months.
According to intelligence, the Japanese army has drawn three divisions from the mainland and entered the Far East, and is building a combat airport in the direction of Haishengwei. In addition, the Japanese navy's Kong soldiers have also entered Haishengwei. Some of them have even entered the outer area.
It can be said that this time, the Empire was not simply fighting against their army, but also against the enemy's navy.
Can't achieve it?
The bearded man came to the window for a long time. After a while, he turned sideways and looked at everyone and asked, "Do you think the Japanese army will attack us again in the future?"
The agreement was finally signed five days later. However, in order to take care of the feelings of the North Soviet Union, Tokyo still gave the North Soviet Union 10 million rubles.
As for the rest, nothing was given.
"The Japanese army used these 10 million rubles to obtain the natural military port of Haishengwei. This time, they will wake up laughing in their dreams." Zhou Weiguo said to Xiao Ya who was reading a book opposite him while sitting on the sofa.
"For fanatical people, this is indeed something that can make them wake up laughing even in their dreams, but for those who are sober, they may not think so." Xiao Ya closed the book and said.
"Big sister, don't worry about what they think. The situation cannot be changed. Their Kwantung Army cannot be mobilized. If they are mobilized, the Northern Soviet Union may deal with them. They gritted their teeth and forced the other big bosses to sign these agreements."
Chaoxiang Xiuling laughed and said.
Minamizo Akiko, who was making tea nearby, also nodded. "Second sister is right. They can't stand this."
Even if you can't bear it, you have to bear it. As for the future... the future...
"Hey, what do you think? If Berlin launches an attack on Northern Soviet Union, will the Japanese army attack them again?" Zhou Weiguo suddenly thought of a question.
"The Japanese army is the victor. If it weren't for the mediation of the other countries, they might have continued to fight. So, for the victorious party, they are likely to continue."
Yes, I just remember that when Northern Soviet Union was attacked by Berlin, the Japanese army had been struggling hard in the South Asian direction and did not dare to attack Northern Soviet Union.
The reason why they didn't fight was that they were scared by the Northern Soviet Union. Thousands of people went to do coolie labor, but this time, the people who were forced to do coolie labor were from the Northern Soviet Union.
"Let's go." Zhou Weiguo stood up and walked out.
Xiao Ya and the others didn't understand what he was going to do, but they all put down what they were holding and went out silently.
Coincidentally, Fatty Kong staggered out of the car. He had just gone to a banquet at the headquarters to celebrate. There were not many people, but those who could participate were all high-ranking officials in Shancheng. Commander Bai also went.
Even though Zhou Weiguo made great contributions in this incident, he cannot participate.
Fatty Kong got out of the car carrying his things. Although Zhou Weiguo was unable to attend the banquet, he still took back the things that belonged to Zhou Weiguo.
This is what they deserve.
Seeing these people marching towards the car nearby, Fatty Kong asked the secretary beside him in confusion, "What are they going to do at such a fast pace?"
The secretary shook her head. How would she know? She had been following the person in front of her to the banquet.
"Hey, hey..." Fatty Kong called Zhou Weiguo and the others, handed the things in his hand to the secretary, walked over, looked at the people and asked in confusion; "Where are you going?"
Zhou Weiguo glanced at Fatty Kong. This was the quality of a foreign affairs personnel. No matter how much money this fat man spent on food, he never drank too much, because drinking too much could easily lead to bad things, even in front of his own people, he was like this.
"I'm going to get the equipment."
What?
Fatty Kong looked at Zhou Weiguo without understanding for a moment. After a long while, he widened his eyes and asked, "Who... who are you going to ask for equipment?"
