Umezu Yoshijiro, who had the toughest attitude, was furious about this, and Oikawa Koshiro also changed from a gentle attitude at the beginning to agitated, and Konoe Fumimaro was deeply terrified.

"Bageya Road!" Umezu Yoshijiro's expression was distorted to the point of ferocity, "You are so arrogant! You simply regard the Great Japanese Empire as nothing!" He was almost roaring, and at the same time he slapped the table repeatedly, "I tell you! The war not long ago Here, although you did take some advantage, the final winner is the Imperial Japanese Army! You are the ones who lost their divisions and land! You are the ones who cede land and seek peace! As losers, what qualifications do you have to make such ridiculous claims? Let’s talk! The Empire of Japan has already made huge concessions, but you are still so shameless! Fight, the Imperial Army of Japan will accompany you to the end! In the next war, we will let you lose even the chance of begging and surrendering No! Otherwise, you are still arrogant and do not know the heights of the sky and the earth!" He was furious, and then added viciously, "Even if you have the support of the great powers (he did not mention Germany by name), the Empire of Japan and the Imperial Japanese Army I can still completely defeat you!"

Jiang Weiguo chuckled: "General Meizu, anger hurts your liver, why are you so angry? Speaking of which, you should thank us! If it weren't for us, Your Excellency would have climbed to the throne of Japanese Army Minister?" He was mocking Umezu Yoshijiro , because the reason why Umezu Yoshijiro was able to become the Minister of Army was because the former Minister of the Army, General Sugiyama Moto, was dismissed due to the heavy losses of the Japanese army on the Nanjing battlefield, which allowed Umezu Yoshijiro to replace General Sugiyama Moto.

Umezu Yoshijiro looked at Jiang Weiguo with almost fierce eyes, he really wanted to tear Jiang Weiguo apart.

Fumimaro Konoe took a deep breath, and tried to reply in a business-like and calm tone: "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, we can't agree to these two requests of yours. The first request is too harsh. The second demand completely tramples on the dignity of our country and the honor of our military!"

Jiang Weiguo laughed, almost coldly: "Harsh? Trample? You also know harshness? You also know trampling? You occupy a large area of ​​our land, and we let you return part, only part, not all, and you actually feel harsh You think it’s harsh to return some of the things you took away from us that belonged to us? It’s shameless! Trampling? Hehe, let the Chinese army station troops on your Japanese soil, do you think it’s trampling? How much do you trample on us? Years? The North China Garrison Army has been stationed on our land since the end of the Qing Dynasty! During the Jinan tragedy, your troops came to our land whenever they wanted, and left whenever they wanted. They trampled us like birds! You Japanese Do people think that China is a public toilet? Since the September [-]th Incident, your hundreds of thousands of troops have been stationed on our land! It has been seven and a half years! You have trampled on our country's national dignity and the honor of our army! Now let you be trampled a little bit, you can't accept it at all! Ha! Who is the real shameless?" He stared at the flames and blushed furiously.

Konoe Fumimaro stared at Jiang Weiguo with his mouth gaping, he was speechless, Oikawa Koshiro's face was tense, and he said nothing, Umezu Yoshijiro looked at Jiang Weiguo with gritted teeth.

"Mr. Jiang, please calm down!" Haushofer had to cheer up to smooth things over, "Our meeting today is not about settling accounts, but about cooperation. The obstacles between China and Japan require us to Let's get over it together, right? There's no point in arguing.

Although Japan has now invaded a large area of ​​China's land and harmed a large number of China's interests, but with all due respect, your request is indeed a little unacceptable!" His words are not only smoothing things over, but also helping the Chinese side. Face, he looked at the three Japanese people again, "The two sides refuse to give in to each other, so there must be no agreement!Therefore, please Chinese friends and Japanese friends consider the overall situation and make room. If one of the parties suffers any losses, we, Germany, are willing to compensate.

Dear friends, we in Germany are by no means squandering. The funds of our German government are the blood and sweat of the German people and should not be wasted. We are willing to compensate for the overall situation of the tripartite alliance between Germany, China and Japan. Therefore, we sincerely request Chinese friends and Japan Friends, like us in Germany, we can all give in for the sake of the overall situation of the three-nation alliance between Germany, China and Japan.

Dear friends, why did we conclude this tripartite alliance of Germany, China and Japan?It is to obtain more and greater benefits in the future.

In the future, our three countries will all become winners, our three countries can dominate the entire world, and our three countries can all gain vast new territories and huge benefits. Therefore, Chinese and Japanese friends, please look forward and don't be too rigid about the present! "

Umezu Yoshijiro popped out the following words word by word: "Returning the entire Suiyuan Province is our bottom line! If the Chinese side is delusional and wants to get more, then there is nothing more to talk about. We solve problems on the battlefield!"

Haushofer nodded: "Being able to return another province, I personally feel the sincerity of Japanese friends, but unfortunately, Chinese friends will not be satisfied.

Of course, it is indeed too much for Chinese friends to ask for two provinces and two cities.

well!Friends in China and Japan, your bottom line is too different.

Suiyuan Province is a remote province in China, and its value is not high. Japanese friends, can you change to another province?Like Hebei Province?Like Liaoning Province? "

Meizu Meijiro's face was ashen: "Mr. Haushofer, I have made my words very clear just now!"

Haushofer looked at Marshal Blomburg and Ribbentrop, and the three exchanged glances. Haushofer smiled and looked at the representatives of China and Japan: "Sorry, we will excuse you for 5 minutes!"

The three Germans walked out of the conference hall, moved outside, and gathered together to discuss in a low voice.

In the conference hall, China and Japan glared at each other, while Jiang Weiguo was lighting a cigarette. He was too lazy to make eye contact with the Japanese, although Umezu Yoshijiro, who was opposite him, was looking at him with knife-like eyes.

Three minutes later, the three Germans returned to the conference hall.

Haushofer smiled and said: "It seems that we can only activate the backup plan of the head of state.

Japanese friends, if you can replace Suiyuan Province with Hebei Province or Liaoning Province, we, Germany, are willing to pay Japan 100 million U.S. dollars a year as compensation until Japan obtains an additional three times the amount of Hebei Province or Liaoning Province through the German-Chinese-Japanese Triple Alliance. In addition, Germany will provide Japan with [-] million tons of crude oil every year for free!"

As soon as this remark came out, the Chinese and Japanese representatives at the scene were shocked.

Needless to say, in order to solve the obstacles and gaps between China and Japan, Germany paid a substantial and substantial benefit.

Jiang Weiguo was very surprised at first, and then couldn't help but secretly sighed: "Old Xi, Lao Xi, you are really a friend! You are loyal! Although later generations say that you are a thousand-year-old devil, it is only because you failed. If you succeed , those people in later generations who call you a thousand-year-old devil will definitely scramble to tout you as a great man through the ages! Alas! Success or defeat, history judges heroes by success or failure!" Jiang Weiguo was really moved at this time, you know, Germany this year China’s gdp is more than 300 billion U.S. dollars, and Germany’s oil production this year is 800 million tons (Germany has not acquired oil fields in the Middle East at this time, and Germany’s local oil production is very low. Half of the oil is imported, and half of the oil is chemically synthesized). But Hitler was willing to spend 100 million US dollars and [-] million tons of crude oil a year as a price to make Japan retreat and benefit China. I have to admit that Hitler is indeed very worthy of China.

In fact, in the original history, Hitler was a "very loyal person". Italy was a pool of mud and repeatedly dragged Germany back during the war. Even the Italian leader Mussolini collapsed in a coup, but Hitler never Abandoning Italy, and painstakingly sent people to rescue Mussolini who was imprisoned. As for Japan, Japan did not help Germany in the war, and even harmed Germany. Hitler never abandoned Japan, even in Germany. When he was defeated, Hitler also ordered to send a submarine formation to Japan with a large amount of funds, scientific research personnel, and weapon design blueprints to help his allies and hand over Germany's last hope to Japan (in fact, Hitler said to Jiang Weiguo at this time: " "Speaking of loyalty" is not just the reason for his character, but Jiang Weiguo has given him too many benefits. Just a Middle East oil field is enough for Hitler to repay Jiang Weiguo with blood.

If Germany gets the oil fields in the Middle East, it will not be difficult for its annual oil production to exceed 5000 million or even [-] million tons, and it is only a fraction to give one-fiftieth or one-hundredth to Japan.

).

"We in Germany have done our best, and at the same time, we also need our Chinese friends to do their best!" Ribbentrop looked at Jiang Weiguo, "China is rich in resources, especially tungsten sand, bristle, and tung oil, and its output occupies a monopoly position in the world. Therefore, we hope that after the establishment of the Germany-China-Japan Alliance, China will open its resource exports to Japan and sell tungsten sand, pig bristles, and tung oil to Japan at international market prices.

Japanese friends need to show their interests to prove their sincerity, and Chinese friends naturally do the same!"

Jiang Weiguo snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, holding back the ups and downs in his heart: "We need to discuss it!"

The three Konoe Fumimaro said, "We also need to discuss it!"

Haushofer smiled and said: "Okay, I suggest that we take a break for an hour!"

After walking out of the conference hall, Jiang Weiguo, Yang Jie, and Jiang Baili gathered together to discuss eagerly.

"The Germans are so generous!" Yang Jie said with emotion, "They actually paid 100 million U.S. dollars a year and [-] million tons of crude oil to help us claim the land. Hitler...is really a generous person!"

"This also shows that Germany attaches great importance to the alliance between Germany, China and Japan, and will not hesitate to pay for it!" Jiang Baili looked worried, "This matter has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that Germany has helped us so much. We hope to return to our homeland. It's even bigger, and here we are...we're going to ride a tiger.

Think about it, we made Germany pay such a high price, under the guise of joining the Germany-China-Japan Triple-National Alliance, we managed to get our country back from the Japanese, but we refused to accept the benefits after we took the benefits. No faith, instead of cooperating with the Japanese as Germany hoped or requested, instead of destroying the tripartite alliance of Germany, China and Japan, and fighting Japan again, by that time, our behavior will be no less than betraying Germany, and Germany will definitely If you hate us so much, turn to support Japan, and stand with Japan thoroughly, we will lose Germany, the most important and even the only ally, and Germany will stand on the side of our deadly enemy, and we will be completely helpless Well, the United States, Britain, and France have no sympathy for us. If they know that we have planned to join forces with Germany and Japan to deal with them, they will definitely hate us further and will never come to our aid. As for the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union Our aid is malicious and we cannot rely on the Soviet Union.

Therefore, by doing this, Germany is actually secretly forcing us and giving us an indirect warning.

If we really do what Germany says, it will be no less than drinking poison to quench thirst! ’ he worried.

"Baili, what you said is right!" Yang Jie was reminded, and his expression became gloomy.

Jiang Weiguo lit a cigarette again and smoked it vigorously, his heart was shaking violently.

"Jianhao, what do you think?" Yang Jie and Jiang Baili looked at Jiang Weiguo together.

"Mr. Yang, Mr. Baili..." Jiang Weiguo sullenly said, "I'm thinking, if we do this, the benefits to Japan can be said to be very great! Germany will give Japan 100 million U.S. dollars a year 100 million U.S. dollars, equivalent to three aircraft carriers! There is still [-] million tons of oil! The Japanese have always been extremely short of oil! Although [-] million tons of oil is not particularly large, it will also allow the Japanese war machine to get blood transfusions ! In addition, we have to open the export of resources to Japan! These... will make the Japanese stronger than before! We will definitely fight the Japanese again in the future! At that time, won’t it be more difficult to win?”

"Jian Hao, calm down!" Yang Jie patted Jiang Weiguo on the shoulder, "The matter is not that serious.

It is true that the Japanese have gained a lot of benefits from this, but it is just a drop in the bucket.

Germany gives Japan 800 million U.S. dollars a year, which will definitely be used by Germany to develop the Japanese navy. When the war breaks out, the Japanese navy will definitely suffer heavy losses. If we go to war with the Japanese in the future, the Japanese navy will not be particularly strong. Our country As a mainland country, as long as we build a strong air force, we will not be afraid of the Japanese navy; secondly, Germany’s oil supply to the Japanese is not particularly large, and Germany’s 100 million tons of oil a year is far from enough, let alone [-] million tons oil?As for the tungsten sand, bristle, and tung oil we want to export to the Japanese, we can also make a fuss. You think, the Japanese don’t know how much tungsten sand, bristle, and tung oil we produce in a year. When the time comes, we will give them, but Insufficient supply, find an excuse to deduct, isn't it all right? "

"Funds and resources are not the most important thing!" Jiang Baili shook his head, "The most important thing is that if we really do this, we will really sell ourselves to the Germans! We will really be tied to the so-called 'Germany, China and Japan' This chariot is gone!"

"Yeah!" Yang Jie sighed, "It's really hard to get off!"

Jiang Weiguo was in a state of confusion: To save the Jews, you must be in the same boat with Germany, and to recover the country, or you must be in the same boat with Germany. Many, many lifelines in China are linked to being in the same boat with Germany up.

Originally, after the three-party talks, China still had a choice, because after the Sino-Japanese peace talks and armistice, China did not promise to truly ally with Germany and Japan in the form of a treaty, but right now, China seems to have no choice.

A lot of benefits are in front of us, but if Jiang Weiguo wants to take it, he must do what Hitler said.

Germany was a defeated country in World War II in the past, and the United States is so powerful. If China really joins Germany in the world war, it may become Germany's funeral object. Moreover, how likely is this "possibility"? Jiang Weiguo has no idea. Not sure, history has been completely changed by him, and he no longer has the ability to "predict things like a god and predict the future".

Disaster!so difficult!It's really difficult!Jiang Weiguo's heart trembled.

"Maybe..." Jiang Baili whispered, "We can increase the price and force Germany to 'change', so as to find new opportunities!" He looked at Jiang Weiguo, "This is our only way now!"

Jiang Weiguo thought for a while and nodded.

"Do you want to report to the chairman first?" Yang Jie suggested.

"No need!" Jiang Weiguo shook his head. He knew what Chiang Kai-shek was thinking. Chiang Kai-shek was "not very willing" to the four northeastern provinces outside the customs. He chose Hebei and Liaoning. Chiang Kai-shek would definitely choose Hebei because he didn't know that Liaoning was in Industry and resources are actually much more important than Hebei Province. Jiang Weiguo is restless at this time and has no energy to talk to Chiang Kai-shek, so he doesn't want to report.

More than half an hour later, the three parties returned to the conference hall again.

"Japanese friends..." Haushofer said with a smile, "What do you think?" He deliberately asked the Japanese to make a statement first, so that the Japanese side's new bottom line can be known to the Chinese side, so that the Chinese side can grasp it initiative.

The three of Konoe Fumimaro have obviously contacted Tokyo and received instructions from Tokyo.

After calming down, Fumimaro Konoe said: "On the one hand, the German friends have made up for Japan's loss of interests to a certain extent. On the other hand, we are deeply moved by the sincerity of the German friends. Therefore, considering the overall situation of the Triple Alliance and the We are willing to make concessions again due to the friendly and good relations between Japan and Germany, and we can consider returning Hebei Province to China as appropriate!"

"Chinese friends!" Haushofer breathed a sigh of relief, "What about you?"

Jiang Weiguo was expressionless and said word by word: "We can do as suggested by our German friends, but we ask for Liaoning Province instead of Hebei Province. In addition, it is also necessary for our army to station troops in Japan!"

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly fell to freezing point.

In the next two hours or so, the meeting turned into "ice and fire" again. The atmosphere was as cold as ice, and the Chinese and Japanese representatives were all emotional, clapping tables and even swearing at each other.

At [-] o'clock in the evening, the first day of talks ended, and basically no substantive consensus was reached.

According to the talks on this day, it can be concluded that Japan reluctantly agreed to return Hebei Province, but China demanded that Japan return Liaoning Province and demand a "symbolic garrison" in Japan. Although the bottom line of the huge difference between the two sides has narrowed, it is still The difference is huge.

As the sun set and night fell, the representatives of the three parties returned to their residences after the meeting, started urgent discussions, and sent reports to Berlin, Wuhan, and Tokyo.

This night, many high-level leaders in the Three Kingdoms did not feel sleepy. After all, the talks on Jeju Island were of great significance.

In the dark night, in a dark mountain forest in the central and western part of Jeju Island.

More than 300 figures are hurrying back and forth in the mountains and forests, and they are heading straight to the small coastal fishing village where the tripartite talks are being held.

Judging from the agility of these people, their capable movements, and their strong bodies, it is not difficult to see that they are all elite soldiers, and they are well-armed and loaded with live ammunition. Cartridges, mortars.

The bright moonlight reflected that these soldiers were all wearing Japanese uniforms, and the faces under the helmets were all yellow.

Passing through a mountain depression, the soldiers climbed up a small hill. The first soldier wearing the rank of Lieutenant Commander first signaled the team to stop, then took out the compass and map, and carefully calibrated the direction and position.

"We are about to enter the patrol range of the German army!" The lieutenant officer whispered, "Everyone is on high alert! Be alert!"

A major came forward and looked at the compass and map: "It seems that our direction and route are correct. According to the information he provided, we will reach the target point in a straight line of more than 30 kilometers!"

The lieutenant commander nodded, with a dignified and resolute expression: "I will repeat it for the last time! This operation must be successful! Remember, we must kill Jiang Weiguo!"

Section 392 Tripartite Talks (7)

Before going to Jeju Island to participate in the tripartite talks, Jiang Weiguo and Xiao Yao discussed in private.

Jiang Weiguo trusted Xiao Yao very much, because Xiao Yao had the same dream as Jiang Weiguo, and therefore "assisted" Jiang Weiguo wholeheartedly. At the same time, Xiao Yao also respected Jiang Weiguo very much. The relationship between the two was very similar to that of Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi.

Xiao Yao's mind is undoubtedly very extraordinary, so Jiang Weiguo really wants to hear his opinion.

After listening to Jiang Weiguo's narration, Xiao Yao thought for a while, and said solemnly: "The tripartite talks are indeed an opportunity for us, we can use the power of the Germans to force the Japanese to spit out some occupied areas, but, although the Germans have nothing to do with us, Close and friendly, but not giving us favors without asking for payment.

I estimate that it is more likely to take back some of the Japanese-occupied areas, but since then I have been involuntarily committed to others.

Attendees, you and I know that our country is still in a state of uncertainty about whether to form an alliance with Germany. After the three-party talks, this major event will be "decided or not."

You have to be mentally prepared!"

Jiang Weiguo nodded: "Military adviser, what you said is exactly the thing I worry about the most! Following Germany to fight the Soviet Union and Britain and France, the chances of winning are indeed great, but there is also the United States behind Britain and France. The strength of the United States is too strong! (The strength of the United States is indeed super strong and occupies an overwhelming advantage. The data can best explain the problem. In the six years from 1939 to 1945 in the original history, the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, and Italy The total production data of various war materials in China is as follows: steel, Germany 1.9 million tons, Japan 0.5 million tons, Italy 0.15 million tons, Soviet Union 0.95 million tons, and the United States 6 million tons. 1.7 times the sum of the five countries; oil, Germany 0.48 million tons, Japan 0.22 million tons, Italy 0.07 million tons, the United Kingdom 1 million tons, the Soviet Union 2 million tons, and the United States 16 billion tons. 4.24 times of the sum; power generation, Germany 4140 billion kWh, Japan 2420 billion kWh, Italy 1230 billion kWh, UK 3150 billion kWh, Soviet Union 2820 billion kWh, the United States 16780 billion kWh, the power generation of the United States is Germany 1.2 times the sum of the five countries of Japan, Italy, the Soviet Union, and Britain.

Because of this, after learning that the Pearl Harbor incident broke out and the United States entered the world war, the Chongqing side was overjoyed, and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill directly said, "We finally won."

"Actually..." Xiao Yao said again, "I'm more worried about your safety!"
