Chapter 583 Shanhaiguan and Railway
Perhaps Mr. Hans felt that his words were not strong enough, so he added the other two countries.
These diplomats are usually very cautious in what they say and will not say such things without the other party's permission.
The reason why the two diplomatic ambassadors did not come to today's occasion was because they wanted to avoid suspicion.
Luosha and Japan now look at Li Shaoyi as an enemy, so they want to reduce the chances of meeting with Li Shaoyi, and all transactions are carried out in secret to avoid being caught by these two countries.
But the Junkers have nothing to be afraid of. They have the most economic and trade exchanges with Li Shaoyi. Even if someone asks, it can be said that it is economic exchanges. What's more, judging from what Mr. Hans meant, you should think that we are conducting military exchanges, and I will not deny it.
At this moment, Li Shaoyi finally understood a saying, that is, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
After the outbreak of World War II, the United States and the Windsor Empire were naturally in the same camp, and their enemies were the Junkers in front of them. However, before the outbreak of World War II, their enemies might have been the Russians. In order to make the Russians unlucky or in trouble, these three countries really put in a lot of effort.
The Gallic Empire was also involved, but because of the incident at the French Concession Police Station, it is estimated that it will leave this camp, but it will definitely not go to the Rakshasa camp.
"Do you need a written guarantee from the Japanese?"
Seeing that Li Shaoyi didn't speak for a long time, Mr. Hans spoke softly from the side.
"Dear Mr. Hans, you should understand that in the diplomatic history of countries around the world, once an agreement is signed, it is meant to be torn up. As long as it serves one's own interests, any agreement can be torn up. In my opinion, Japan's written guarantee is no more valuable than toilet paper."
Li Shaoyi's words made Mr. Hans smile bitterly and shake his head. He thought Li Shaoyi was the same as other Chinese people. In the past few decades, Chinese people have been in a weak position. They believed whatever foreigners said and were finally cheated by foreigners. Chinese people could only shed tears alone.
But it is obvious that Li Shaoyi is not such a person. I just don’t know what kind of guarantee Li Shaoyi wants.
"Then who are you?"
Mr. Hans decided not to think about it anymore and just wait and see what Li Shaoyi had to say.
"I want the Japanese to withdraw from here. The Manchus entered the Central Plains from here. Now the Japanese hand this place over to me and let my army occupy it, then I will feel relieved. In addition, I also have jurisdiction over the Beijing-Fengtian Railway, with Shanhaiguan as the boundary."
Li Shaoyi wrote three words on the napkin.
Shanhaiguan...
This is the only way for the Japanese army in Northeast China to enter the country. If they didn’t go through here, who knows how many detours the Japanese would have to take?
The Jingfeng Railway can be said to be the most important railway in the north of Longguo. The Japanese have spent countless efforts and money on this railway, which has led to everything we have today. If the Japanese are forced to give it up, Mr. Hans would also take a breath.
"I told you this is a very difficult matter, and you're still so confident. Let's just pretend we've never discussed this before. After this meal, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's just focus on our own development. Of course, I'll still take your old railroad tracks if possible."
Li Shaoyi suddenly laughed, with a hint of cunning on his face, as if to say, "I don't want to do this, but you insist on me doing it, so I'll propose a condition that you can't meet."
"General Li, please wait. I'm not saying this can't be done. I just can't give you an answer right now. Why don't you give me a few days? I also want to exchange ideas with the other gentlemen. I can tell you frankly that we can't accomplish this alone, but if we unite with friends from all over the world, there's nothing we can't accomplish."
Mr. Hans believed that he had grasped Li Shaoyi's weakness and that Li Shaoyi wanted to use this condition to repel him, so he had to get this done.
Although there are great difficulties in the process, if this is accomplished, Li Shaoyi will most likely lead his army to continue northward. After reaching the border between the Xiongnu and Luosha, Luosha will have to maintain an army of at least 500,000 near the border every year.
A country's comprehensive national strength is limited. When maintaining an army of more than 500,000 in the Far East, the army in other places will inevitably be reduced. Combined with the existing army, Russia will have to deploy at least 800,000 troops in the entire Far East.
This is simply the best news of the year for the Junkers who are about to attack Rakshasa.
"Of course, let me make it clear that even if this is accomplished, we will not hand over all rights unless your army crosses Ulaanbaatar and holds it for three months."
These foreigners are also very smart. They also know what kind of person Li Shaoyi is. He will never spit out the meat in his mouth, so just like before, you have to see the results first.
"No, no, no, Mr. Hans, listen to me. I was just saying this casually. You know the current situation. If we really fight the Rakshasa people, I will..."
Li Shaoyi acted extremely frightened, but Mr. Hans smiled and shook his head.
"General Li, according to what you Chinese say, you are the one who pees while standing. You are also the benchmark among all the men in Dragon Country. You don't want to fail to make the men of Dragon Country proud, do you? A real man's word is his bond. This is a saying passed down by your ancient people."
Mr. Hans said with a smile.
Li Shaoyi was so happy that he almost jumped up. Even if he hadn't discussed these conditions with you, he would still fight to the northern border. Now he could take Shanhaiguan and get half of the operating rights of the Jingfeng Railway. This could be regarded as interest.
"Mr. Hans is so cunning that he has pushed me to the edge of the cliff."
Li Shaoyi looked heartbroken, while Mr. Hans smiled and drank the red wine in his glass, thinking that he had won the day.
"But besides Shanhaiguan and the railway operating rights, you should also understand that there is a foundation beneath these two things, and that is that the Japanese cannot attack us. Don't forget this."
Li Shaoyi said this anxiously, and he looked a little frustrated, but in Mr. Hans' eyes, this was the most beautiful scenery today.
