东北究竟有多重要呢?根据伪满洲国政府和国民政府的统计资料,1943年时,土地面积占中国12%、人口总数占中国10%的东北地区生产出了全中国93%的钢材、66%的水泥、69%的化工品、95%的机械、93.3%的电力、49.4%的煤炭、87.7%的生铁、69%的硫酸、60%的苏打灰,并且已经形成庞大的人造石油、特种钢等当时领先全世界的尖端科技企业。

Puppet Manchukuo was the first region in Asia to achieve industrialization; in 1938, the puppet Manchukuo generated 16.3 billion kWh of electricity and had the earliest and largest hydropower system in Asia; in 1943, the Fengman Hydropower Station in Northeast China began to generate electricity. The annual power generation reached 22 billion kWh, while in 1949 the total power generation of China including the Northeast was only 43 billion kWh; in 1945, the industrial scale and economic aggregate of the Northeast had surpassed Japan, ranking first No. [-] in Asia.

The puppet Manchukuo became the largest economy in Asia. In 1945, the total GDP of the puppet Manchukuo reached 142 billion US dollars. Its gross national product surpassed Japan, France, and Italy, and it was second only to the United States and the Soviet Union in the world. , the United Kingdom, ranked fourth in the world (Germany was on the verge of destruction in 1945, so the total economic volume has also plummeted); in 1945, the four northeastern provinces accounted for 85% of the total industrial output value of China, and Taiwan accounted for 10%. %, the rest of China only accounts for a mere 5%.

Jiang Weiguo frantically wants to take back the Northeast, because the Northeast is too important, too precious, and the value is too great, but at the same time, he knows that the Japanese are extremely unwilling to lose the Northeast, and the Japanese would rather lose Japan than lose the four Northeast provinces .

Recovering the Northeast is really too difficult for Jiang Weiguo. If he does not return at the negotiating table, it will be difficult to fight back on the battlefield. Even if the Northeast is brought back by force, the Northeast will be smashed.

"Zhang Xueliang, Zhang Xueliang, you are such a big idiot who will harm the country and the people!" Jiang Weiguo cursed viciously in his heart.

"Jianhao," Jiang Baili looked at Jiang Weiguo, "If the Japanese are willing to give up another province, where do you want it?"

Jiang Weiguo smiled bitterly: "Mr. Baili, Mr. Yang, what do you think?"

Yang Jie thought for a while: "Hebei Province! At present, the Japanese occupy our eight provinces and three cities, and in these eight provinces and three cities, Taiwan is alone outside, the four northeastern provinces are outside the customs, Suiyuan Province and Chahar The provinces are all in the northern part of the country (during the Republic of China, Rehe, Chahar, Suiyuan, and Ningxia were called the "four provinces in the northern part of the country", and the territory of the four provinces in the northern part of the country is basically the Inner Mongolia of later generations), but Hebei province is different. , Hebei Province belongs to the Guannei area, the chairman's bottom line is to restore to before the July [-]th Incident, after the July [-]th Incident, we lost three provinces and three cities, three provinces and three cities, Hebei Province and Pingjin City are the essence, and it is also in line with In our hearts, we hope that the Kannai area can come back completely!"

Jiang Baili nodded: "I think so too.

Hebei is a great plain (more than [-]% of Hebei Province is a plain), with fertile land, dense population, developed economy, and relatively rich resources. The value of taking it back is much higher than that of Suiyuan and Chahar Provinces. In addition, Hebei Province takes After returning, the three provinces of Shandong, Shanxi and Hebei will be connected into one piece, which will be of great benefit!"

Jiang Weiguo smiled more and more bitterly: "If the Japanese give me this choice and let me choose one of the eight provinces and three cities, I will choose Liaoning Province!" He sighed helplessly, because he knew very well that Liaoning Province The province is extremely rich in resources and extremely developed in industry. The iron ore reserves in Northeast China are about 130 billion tons, ranking first in the country, of which 110 billion tons are distributed in Liaoning Province. The iron ore reserves in Anshan and Benxi alone account for the entire country. A quarter of the total amount of iron ore, Benxi's iron ore reserves reached 30 billion tons, which is the largest iron ore in Asia. industrial area)".

Obtaining Liaoning Province is Jiang Weiguo's dream.

"If Liaoning Province is taken back, Liaoning Province and Shandong Province can form the horns of Northeast China. Hebei Province occupied by the Japanese is completely surrounded by the two provinces of Lu and Liao, and can tear apart the defense integrity of the Japanese occupation of Northeast China. , This will lay an important foundation for us to consolidate North China and recover Northeast China in the future!" Jiang Baili was thoughtful.

"But Liaoning Province belongs to the Northeast region, so the difficulty for the Japanese to let go is probably ten times that of Hebei Province?" Yang Jie shook his head.

Jiang Weiguo smiled bitterly: "Yes!"

The three were talking, and Haushofer came to visit.

"Chinese friends, have you eaten?" He smiled and greeted the three of Jiang Weiguo in a very Chinese way.

Jiang Weiguo laughed, and then ordered Sun Tao to serve tea.

Haushofer took a sip of tea first, then looked at the three of Jiang Weiguo with a smile: "Little Mr. Jiang, General Yang, General Jiang, I came here quietly behind the Japanese's back.

After all, Germany and China are real friends, right? "There is a lot of meaning in his words.

Jiang Weiguo squinted and smiled noncommittally: "Really?"

"Of course!" Haushofer laughed, "In the hearts of Germany and Hitler, China is Germany's true friend. As for Japan, hehe, it's just a pawn used by both of us.

The head of state made it clear as early as in his "Mein Kampf" that 'Japan is an inferior nation without imagination, but Germany can use Japan to use their talents and dedication to serve Germany'. It's just implementing the idea of ​​the head of state.

Utilize Japan, serve Germany, and serve China.

The world war between Germany and China is inseparable from the Japanese navy, so we have to hold back the boredom in our hearts and make temporary friends with the Japanese. After we are done, we will naturally treat the Japanese like "the rabbit is dead, the lackey is cooking" !” He said very bluntly, “We will firmly support you until you finally defeat Japan, conquer Japan, and destroy Japan!”

Jiang Weiguo looked at Yang Jie and Jiang Baili, and quietly lit a cigarette.

Yang Jie smiled slightly: "Mr. Haushofer, I'm sorry, please forgive me, how do we know if you will go to the Japanese behind your back and say the same thing?"

Haushofer laughed again. He suspected that the German side had already prepared for "talking about people when they see people, and telling lies when they see people", so he said calmly: "Of course not! Although we are trying our best to form a Germany, China and Japan are the three-nation alliance, but the status of China and Japan in our hearts is by no means equal or the same. China is Germany's friend, and Japan is not at all.

If it weren't for the fact that Japan has the third largest navy in the world, we wouldn't even bother to be friends with the Japanese, even if we pretended to be friends. Because of the Japanese's despicable virtues and shameless faces, Mr. It was already clearly dissected before us.

We fully understand the 'worries' of Chinese friends, so we will present a generous gift to prove our sincerity!"

"Oh?" Jiang Weiguo's heart skipped a beat, "Which gift is it?"

Haushofer took another sip of tea humbly: "Navy!"

"Navy?" Jiang Weiguo, Yang Jie, and Jiang Baili were all taken aback.

"Of course!" Haushofer laughed, "We need a navy to start a war with the United States, Britain and France, and you, China, will attack the Japanese mainland in the future. Don't you also need a navy? We can build a navy by ourselves, and at the same time we also need a navy. You can grab it! Don’t forget that the U.S. and British navies are number one and number two in the world, the Japanese navy is third, and the fourth and fifth are the French and Italian navies (according to the Washington Naval Treaty, the U.S., Britain, Japan, France, and Italy The total tonnage ratio of the capital ships of the five navies is 10 to 10 to 6 to 3.5 to 3.5), the Italian navy is basically in our hands, if we defeat France, the French navy can also be occupied by us, if we After defeating the United Kingdom, the British navy can also be occupied by us, even if we cannot occupy all of it, we can also occupy part or even a large part of it.

We promise that as long as the Italian navy, the French navy, and the British navy are in the hands of Germany, they can all be used together by Germany and China. We can even transfer some or most of the ships to you as a gift, so that the Chinese navy can quickly become a A powerful navy with aircraft carriers and battleships! "

"Oh?" Jiang Weiguo, Yang Jie, and Jiang Baili were all shocked, and the three exchanged eager and enthusiastic gazes.

"If this is really possible..." Jiang Weiguo's heart turned upside down, "That would be great, great..." He was very excited.

Haushofer immediately saw the extreme excitement of the three of Jiang Weiguo, and he smiled slightly: "Even, the German shipbuilding industry can build warships for the Chinese navy, and even, the ships owned by the German navy can be leased and transferred to China. Navy! Because Germany and China are true friends! They are a family regardless of each other.

In this matter, we can sign a treaty. If you have a treaty, it is equivalent to holding Germany's handle. If Germany fails China, you can show the treaty to the Japanese at any time.

How about it? Haushofer looked at the three of Jiang Weiguo with a smile, "Are you still 'worried' about Germany?" "

Jiang Weiguo's heart was full of turmoil. Indeed, if Germany did this, China could guarantee that Germany would not "sell out" China. In fact, there was no need for Germany to sell out China.

Selling out others has to be profitable. If Germany sells out China, what can it gain?At most, it would be exchanged for Japan to cling to Germany's thigh even more desperately, but Germany gained Japan but lost China, which is obviously not worth the loss. What's more, Jiang Weiguo sent several generous gifts to Hitler. The most important thing is the oil fields in the Middle East. Hitler is not a " People who are not loyal” will not betray Jiang Weiguo who has provided him and Germany with such important information.

In fact, Jiang Weiguo still has a trump card when it comes to whether Germany will betray China, and that is: the atomic bomb.

Jiang Wei Congress made a request to Hitler: Sino-German joint development of atomic bombs, excluding Japan, and the base of Sino-German joint development of atomic bombs must be in China (Jiang Weiguo intends to put the atomic bomb base in Shanxi Province, because the power consumed by the development of atomic bombs can be called With astronomical figures, Shanxi Province is extremely rich in coal resources, and many large thermal power stations can be built to supply the base.

).

The scientific research talents, resources, electricity, financial resources, and material resources needed to develop the atomic bomb are extremely huge. It is impossible for Germany to cooperate with China to develop the atomic bomb and at the same time develop the atomic bomb with China and Japan behind its back. Germany does not have this strength.

As long as China has the "Sino-German atomic bomb", it can be guaranteed [-]% that Germany will not betray China.

The atomic bomb, coupled with the "navy" that Germany is now voluntarily proposing, Jiang Weiguo has obtained two major guarantees.

After taking a deep breath, Jiang Weiguo looked at Haushofer with a smile: "Mr. Haushofer, to be honest, we did have a little doubt and uneasiness about Germany, please forgive me, we dare not Any negligence in the fate of the country, but for now, we have completely and [-]% trust in Germany.

China believes in Germany, and I absolutely believe in Hitler!"

Haushofer was overjoyed: "So, it really couldn't be better!" His eyes were bright and his face was flushed, "So, Chinese friends, Germany will stand with you unswervingly. Right now, we need Japan, so we have to cooperate with Japan, and we also know that the realization of the three-nation alliance between Germany, China and Japan will make China suffer a lot of sacrifices and costs..."

"Of course!" Jiang Baili nodded, "We are very touched by the sincerity of our German friends, but national interests cannot be ignored.

We are still currently occupied by Japan in the vast land of eight provinces and three cities, which makes us suffer a huge loss of interests and suffer extreme national humiliation.

Although our German friends are very kind and try their best to help us, we really cannot cooperate with Japan under such circumstances!"

Haushofer nodded again and again: "Of course, of course, we understand very well, so we will do our best to help you get back part of the country from Japan, even if Germany wants to compensate Japan for this, we will be willing to pay.

Chinese friends, can you tell me what your bottom line is?How much land do you really need the Japanese to hand over that belonged to you before you can really agree to conclude the Germany-China-Japan Triple Alliance? "

Jiang Weiguo exchanged glances with Yang Jie and Jiang Baili, Jiang Weiguo said solemnly: "At least two provinces, and one of them must be an elite province!"

"One more thing!" Jiang Baili seemed to think of something, and added, "We can bear the loss of national interests for the time being in the face of our German friends. After all, we are currently being robbed of a lot of benefits by the Japanese. Really. We can get rewards for the conclusion of the Three Kingdoms Alliance of Germany, China and Japan, but we must get compensation from the Japanese for national dignity, which is more important than national interests! Therefore, in addition to returning part of the country, we also There is one more request, and that is..."

After Haushofer heard the second request from the Chinese side, a glimmer of gloom appeared on his originally beaming face.

At [-] p.m., the tripartite talks were held again.

At the beginning of the meeting, Haushofer spoke first. Starting from the overall and long-term perspective of the "Germany, China, and Japan Triple Alliance", he analyzed in a simple and simple way that the hatred, conflicts, and contradictions between China and Japan can be "temporarily put aside for a while." The necessity of letting go” and his position is inclined to China. His subtext is that “Japan must proceed from the overall situation, give way to China, and return some land that originally belonged to China to China, so as to compensate China for the loss of interests. Let the face of the Chinese government be maintained, and allow the Chinese government to make an explanation to the Chinese people.” At the same time, he also hinted at the Japanese that “Germany is willing to compensate Japan for the losses suffered by Japan.”

Among the three on the Japanese side, Konoe Fumimaro nodded again and again. He agreed with the German side, and kept looking at Umezu Yoshijiro and Oikawa Koshiro around him with the hope of getting a corresponding look. The attitude of Oikawa Koshiro did not object. Meijirou looked stern and cold.

After Haushofer finished speaking, Umezu Yoshijiro said in a firm tone: "German friends are indeed reasonable, but Japan's interests are also inviolable, but for the sake of the overall situation of the Triple Alliance, we are willing to make concessions again. On the one hand, it is to compensate China, and on the other hand, it is to prove our sincerity.

We are willing to return about 15 square kilometers of land in the western part of Suiyuan Province to China.

Our move is also for China's consideration.

Outer Mongolia is China's territory, but Outer Mongolia has been infiltrated by the Soviet Union for a long time, and now it is actually controlled by the Soviet Union. The actual ruling area of ​​the Nationalist Government does not border Outer Mongolia (there are five provinces bordering Outer Mongolia, of which , Xinjiang is the site of Sheng Shicai, and Xinjiang has been indirectly controlled by the Soviet Union, Ningxia is the site of Ma Jiajun, and the three provinces of Suiyuan, Chahar, and Heilongjiang are all controlled by Japan at this time), we give up the western part of Suiyuan Province , so that the actual ruling area of ​​the national government can be bordered by Outer Mongolia, and the Chinese army can obtain a land passage to Outer Mongolia, so that the Chinese army can enter Outer Mongolia and recover Outer Mongolia in the future.

Our sincerity and painstaking efforts, I hope the Chinese side will not let you down!"

"Huh!" Jiang Weiguo snorted coldly, "West of Suiyuan Province? 15 square kilometers? What joke! You occupy a full 180 million square kilometers of our country, but you are only willing to return less than one-tenth of it? Yes, the western part of Suiyuan Province is a sparsely populated and economically depressed place, and its importance is the lowest among the eight provinces and three cities in my country that you have occupied, so it can be seen that you are just perfunctory us!"

Umezu Yoshijiro said angrily: "You don't want to be too big here! Returning the western part of Suiyuan Province is already our biggest concession! Don't be greedy, don't be dissatisfied!"

"It's because you have no sincerity!" Jiang Weiguo retorted sharply, "You occupy a large area of ​​our densely populated and economically developed area, but you are only willing to hand over a small piece of secondary area. Can't you treat us as beggars? What's more, the western part of Suiyuan Province was originally It is the territory of our country! It is only natural for you to return what belongs to us, let alone, you only returned a little bit!"

Jinwei Wenmao smiled and said: "Mr. Jiang, we have done our best to give up the western part of Suiyuan Province..."

Oikawa Koshiro asked in a dry tone: "What exactly do you want?"

Jiang Weiguo sullenly said, "Hebei and Liaoning provinces, as well as Beiping and Tianjin cities!"

The smile on Konoe Fumimaro's face suddenly froze. Umezu Yoshijiro was furious at first, and then laughed back, and didn't say anything, because he felt that the request from the Chinese side was nothing but nonsense, and there was no value in refuting it. He just With a sneer, Oikawa Koshiro shook his head again and again, with a mixture of sneer and wry smile on his face.

"More than that!" Jiang Baili said coldly, "Since Japan wants to form an alliance with China, then China and Japan must have equal status, otherwise, wouldn't China become a vassal of Japan? Where is our national character? Where is my Chinese dignity? ?Since Japan currently occupies a large area of ​​our country, we are very clear that it is really impossible for Japan to return all of them at once. Political status is equal, so we can join the Three Kingdoms Alliance of Germany, China and Japan together, then..." Jiang Baili paused, and his tone was firm, "Japan will station troops on Chinese soil, and China will also station troops on Japanese soil!"

As soon as these words came out, the air at the conference site almost froze.

Konoe Fumimaro was stunned, Kawako Shiro was tongue-tied, Umezu Yoshijiro was stunned at first, and then almost burst into a fit.

Jiang Baili's tone was calm but firm as iron: "Yes! It must be like this! There must also be Chinese troops stationed on Japanese soil! Only in this way can the face of our government, our national dignity and dignity be preserved! Only in this way can our country enjoy a high political status. Equality with Japan! Our government can give the best explanation to both the domestic people and the international community. Yes, the Japanese army is on Chinese soil, and the Chinese military is also on Japanese soil. Both sides are the same and equal. Of course, we understand that the Japanese government will not require Chinese troops to be stationed in Tokyo, but Chinese troops can be stationed in secondary areas of Japan's territory. In fact, this is a "symbolic garrison", a symbolic meaning.

For example, Hokkaido in Japan, the Okinawa Islands (Ryukyu Islands) in Japan, the Korean Peninsula in Japan, and maybe Jeju Island where we are now is a good location.

At that time, our government can give an explanation to our people. Yes, the Japanese occupy a large area of ​​our country and station troops in our country, but it is the same for our country. Our army is also stationed in Japan, so our country and Japan are equal. , so our country can carry out alliance cooperation with Japan.

In this way, the core issue between China and Japan can be easily resolved!"

The meeting was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop on the ground.

The three on the Chinese side all looked serious, the three on the German side all smiled wryly, and the three on the Japanese side remained motionless, completely stunned.

After a long while, the three of them managed to regain their composure. Konoe Fumimaro shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's unbelievable! It's unbelievable! This is simply impossible! Your side is really...really..." He felt that he didn't know What words to use to describe.

Oikawa Koshiro showed a completely dismissive expression, picked up the teacup and drank tea.

Umezu Yoshijiro's face turned from red to pale, and then turned livid again. Finally, he laughed: "This is really the funniest joke I've heard this year! Haha! I really don't know. Where's the imagination to come up with such an absurd request, haha!"

Jiang Weiguo lit a cigarette and puffed out the clouds unhurriedly: "You can think whatever you want, but you must understand that this is our principle and bottom line.

Otherwise, we will never be able to cooperate with your Japanese alliance!"

Section 391 Tripartite Talks (6)

Compared with the "tattling" atmosphere during the morning talks, the atmosphere of the afternoon talks can be described as "fire and fire".

Since the two demands put forward by the Chinese side completely exceeded the bottom line of the Japanese side, and the second demand from the Chinese side "blatantly insulted the Great Japanese Empire" in Japan's view, it is not only unacceptable at all, but even intolerable at all.
