122 Traditional Friendship

Marshal Li held a pair of style of waiting for the price, swayed his legs, looked at Xiao Dongyang with a look on his face, and quickly rubbed his two fingers. Xiao Dongyang is a country with poor resources. Since Li wanted to cut off the iron sand supplied by Han Yeping to Xiao Dongyang Company, Xiao Dongyang has gone crazy. Knowing Xiao Dongyang's little obscene thoughts, Li Xiang's confidence is also strong, and he doesn't mind extorting more benefits.

"This..." Uchida Ryohei's greedy face was uncertain, and the Chinese pig opposite was more greedy than expected.

"Don't think about anything!" Lixiang suddenly smiled and said, "Ezhou is inland, and your country is also out of reach, which makes me angry. You have seen my thunderous method in Hankou. In case the anti-imperialist patriotic movement occurs again, it is not good to make a 'blash, smash and rob' incident against Japanese businessmen, which will destroy the traditional friendship between China and Japan.

Li Xiang's bachelor temperament really scared Xiao Dongyang. To say a word of conscience, the war in the Hankou Concession and the subsequent anti-imperialist patriotic movement in Hankou left the deterrent of the blood of the Japanese in China!

"We have always cherished the traditional friendship of progressive democrats between China and Japan, and have sponsored Mr. Sun Yat-sen's revolution many times..."

"Ghost!" Li wanted to sneer and said, "What is the Japanese-Russian Secret Treaty? What is the Anglo-Japanese Alliance? What are you doing in Manchuria? Don't think I don't know about the moles between you and Man Meng!"

Ryohei Uchida lowered his head, covered the fierce flames in his eyes, and said humbly, "Our empire's policy towards China is to outline the independence and peace of your country. It is actually a prerequisite for peace in Asia. Protecting and safeguarding China's independence and peace is the purpose of the Japan-Russia Secret Treaty and the Japan-British Alliance. Since the Qing Dynasty, our empire has been enthusiastic and concerned about the Chinese government. It has thrown away billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of creatures to restore Manchuria for it and return its sovereignty to the Qing government. Before and after the revolution, our empire solemnly maintained the peace of Manchuria and exempted your country from worries. For example, the aftermath of the chaos of the bandit and With the help of education, military and other aspects, our empire has done its best for your country. And this time, our empire is willing to provide as much help as possible for your Surya to protect overseas Chinese, the purpose of which is also to protect your country's independence and peace in Asia..."

Xiao Dongyang Uchida Ryohei said proudly: "Your government has always been overshadowed by the general trend of the world. It always takes the "long-distance relationship system" as its usual trick of diplomacy. It only aims to be vague for a while, and is indifferent to the friendship of our empire and Asian peace, etc.; it does not recognize all the good intentions of our empire. He has repeatedly killed our Chinese businessmen and seized their rights; he may also insult the soldiers of our empire from time to time; and he has repeatedly used his words to be unreasonable and slandered, and there is almost no friendly friendship..."

Xiao Dongyang Uchida Liangping did not know that his words touched his feelings, and he lay down with tears: "As early as the pre-Qing Dynasty, there was a lot of lack of sincerity in our country, but in Manchuria and other aspects, it is not without some promises, and it seems that China has not been completely ungrateful. Even after the Republic of China, I frequently tried to seize the rights and interests I had obtained, and then tried to harm China's legitimate measures, and deliberately tried to damage the majesty of our empire. It's just what happened on the Manchurian issue, that is, there are no less than dozens of things..."

"What the hell do you want to say?" Li wanted to curl his lips, and the Oscar best actor was nothing more than this. Why can't he train such a powerful actor in Times Media Co., Ltd., which he opened in Shanghai?

"It is the common responsibility of the Eastern countries to compete with the world and ensure peace in Asia, and only Japan and China can take on this important task." Ryohei Uchida did not forget to put a high hat on China: "Japan and China should rely on each other and trust each other to strive to complete this common responsibility and protect the common interests of the two countries. In recent years, China's political chaos and decline have been almost impossible to deal with it alone. Under such circumstances, it is not the responsibility of our empire to promote China to clear its national government so that it can shoulder the above-mentioned heavy responsibilities! In order to respect China's sovereign independence and territorial integrity and maintain the overall peace in Asia, the Japanese Empire is willing to cooperate with China and assume China's obligation to prevent civil strife and resist foreign bandits. China provides special advantages for Japan's national defense and protects Japan's special interests. For this purpose, the two parties can sign an agreement..."

Ryohei Uchida magically took out a Sino-Japanese agreement from the leather bag. The two white papers contain four Chinese characters of the National Defense Treaty, and it is still a few years away from Japanese characters to get rid of the influence of Chinese characters.

Li wanted to turn over casually and inadvertently glanced at Mr. and Mrs. Wang Jingwei, who were very interested in this agreement.

National Defense Pact:

Article 1, when Japan has civil unrest in China or declares war with foreign countries, it shall send troops to support it and assume the responsibility of defending China's territory and maintaining peaceful order.

The first one is the bait of Xiaodongyang under the Suramitsu crisis.

Article 2, China recognizes Japan's special rights in South Manchuria and Inner Mongolia, and entrusts Japan with the ruling power of the region to establish the foundation of national defense.

Of course, what Xiao Dongyang will never forget is Manchuria.

Article 3, Japan in Ezhou shall enjoy all the rights of railways, mines and other rights enjoyed by Japan in the past; Hankou has been established as an international trade port.

This one must need Li Xiang's nod.

Article 4, in order to meet the maritime defense needs of Japan and China, China promised to lease the main ports along the coast of Fujian Province to Japan as a base for the Japanese navy, and to cede the right to lay railways and mine mining in the province to Japan.

Article 5, China shall entrust all relevant matters such as army reform and military training to Japan.

Article 6: In order to maintain the unity of ordnance and munitions, China should adopt Japanese weapons and select some key sites to build arsenals.

Article 7: In order to gradually restore and rebuild the navy, China shall fully entrust Japan with all matters related to naval construction and training.

Article 8: China shall entrust Japan to engage in financial collation and tax reform, and Japan shall appoint suitable financial experts as the highest adviser of China's zheng government.

Article 9 China applies for Japanese education experts, appoints them as education consultants, and sets up schools in various places to teach Japanese, so as to facilitate the development of humanities.

Article 10: When China signs contracts with other countries, borrows foreign debts, leases land, cedes territories, and declares war or negotiates peace with other foreign countries, it must negotiate with Japan in advance and obtain its consent.

Although there are only ten articles in the National Defense Agreement, it is similar to the 21 articles that destroyed China.

Li wanted to throw the white paper to the interested Mr. and Mrs. Wang Jingwei, but his eyes were full of disdainful contempt: "You have found the wrong person. Only President Yuan can make the decision."

Uchida Ryohei said without giving up: "If the above National Defense Agreement can be established, Japan and China can achieve the practical effect of cooperation. With Japan taking the responsibility of safeguarding China's national defense security and maintaining peace and order, China can eliminate its worries and be able to focus on various reform undertakings. If so, China's territorial preservation and national fortune rejuvenation will be just around the corner. If this is the case, on the day of the end of the European war and the restoration of peace, even if the great powers exert pressure on mainland China again, there will be no fear; and the permanent peace in the East can be guaranteed.

Wang Jingwei and his wife looked at the National Defense Agreement and nodded frequently, but Tang Xiangming and the housekeeper stared at Li Xiang.

Li Xiang turned his eyes and said with a long sigh, "I really want to make this agreement with your country to create a Greater Asia Co-Prosperity Circle. But as you know, I'm just a local warlord, and it's impossible to make the decision for the central government..."

"Can Li Shuai write the poem 'Ask the vast land, who is the master of the ups and downs'? Doesn't he have the ambition to win the world?"

Ryohei Uchida's words shocked Wang Jingwei and his wife to raise their heads. Li wants neither admits nor denies it, that is, it is acquiescence. However, Li Xiang has to admit that these little Dongyang is very good at provoking civil strife in China.

Ryohei Uchida smiled and said, "We believe that today, Japan, ignores the intentions of the Chinese people, and blindly supports Yuan Shikai and tries to work with Yuan to solve the Chinese problem. This strategy must be completely wrong. At the same time, we also believe that for the long-term future of Asia, we, Japan, support a Chinese government that can neither maintain the stability of the regime for a long time, has no value for support, and cannot achieve the purpose of our country. If we take the initiative to support 400 million people in China, support Li Shuai to carry out the revolution to the end and overthrow his corruption. The Beiyang government innovates China's political system, maintains a stable order, revives the country's people's livelihood, and then makes Li Shuai form a relationship with our empire. The revival of China is actually the foundation of the Japan-China alliance, and the Japan-China alliance is a strong pillar to prevent the eastern invasion of Western powers after the end of the European war, and also a strong pillar for the maintenance of world peace. The Japanese Empire has made the final decision to support Li Shuai's national policy!"

Mr. and Mrs. Wang Jingwei, Tang Xiangming and the housekeeper's little sister all stared at Li Xiang.

Li Xiang was unmoved. He took out a cigar from the iron box on the table, lit it and took a sip. He said slowly, "Mr. Uchida Liangping is the backbone of the Black Dragon Club, right? The Black Dragon Society is another right-wing group formed after the Xuanyang Society during the Meiji period in Japan, right? The black dragon will be so unceremontly named after the word "Black Dragon" of Heilongjiang in the white mountains and black waters in the northeast of China. Is the ferocious face that the black dragon will show in an attempt to encroach on my northeast white mountains and black water?

Ryohei Uchida was at a loss for a moment, but he quickly calmed down and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Li Shuai, we won't say anything in front of us tomorrow. Just say whatever you want."

Li Xiang smiled and said, "Now it's the Republic of China. If I want to dominate the ups and downs of China, I can run for the next president. There is no need to fight."

Mr. and Mrs. Wang Jingwei, Tang Xiangming and the housekeeper's little sister breathed a breath at the same time.

Ryohei Uchida almost went crazy: "Then what on earth do you want? What else do you want? My empire can give you, even if you run for president, my empire can also help you!"

"Help me deal with this Surat negotiation case first, and the treaty will be discussed later in Ezhou!" Li's fox tail was finally exposed.

"This..." Xiao Dongyang Uchida Ryohei's eyes fluttered. "Before this agreement was signed, the empire could not find a reason to intervene in the Suraya negotiation..."

"A such an agreement can only be established as a secret contract, which is not a reason at all!" Li wanted to sneer and said, "Your country's interference is not something you want to do."

"No way!" Ryohei Uchida flatly refused, and he also knew that if he didn't see a rabbit or an eagle, who could guarantee that the madman Li would turn his face and not admit it. Those guys in the center of the empire will not agree.

Xiao Dongyang's decisiveness made Li think about an accident. He sneered and said, "There is actually too much water in your words. I really can't believe your ability. Don't you make the decision? Forget it, let's cancel this agreement! You are still looking for it in China. Maybe you can find a fool who meets your interests as an endorsement.

"Give me a little time, and I'll think about it!" Ryohei Uchida fought with heaven and man in pain on his face.

"It's okay!" Li wanted to say, "We haven't talked about Surado yet. It's still a long time. There is enough time for you to think about it!"

"Li Shuai's three-inch tongue is stronger than a million soldiers; one person's argument is more important than the treasure of the nine tripods!" Xiao Dongyang Uchida Liangping gasped awkwardly and looked at Li Xiang with hatred.

"Thank you for your compliment!" Li wanted to flick the ash, "You still fulfill your promise, cooperate with me to negotiate in Surai, and then come and tell me the conditions!" I don't feel where your sincerity is! Don't irritate my patience. In fact, I prefer the United States, or Germany, to sign such a white paper to get their support for this Surya negotiation!"

"Don't!" Ryohei Uchida quickly waved his hand, "I will figure it out! Be sure to find a way to make our empire make up its mind as soon as possible! I'll let you know my sincerity. You give me some time. We need to think about it!"

"I want to go to the deck to sunbathe." Li wanted to stretch and smile.

Looking at Li Xiang and his party disappearing outside the door of the cabin restaurant, a stiff look crossed Uchida Ryohei's face.

"This Chinese pig!" Xiao Dongyang's face twisted in an instant.

"Don't let this little Dongyang go back on his word!" Li wanted to be nervous, and his heart was like eighteen buckets, up and down. Surya negotiation, this is a free help from the door.

"Your insistence is correct!" Wang Jingwei patted Li Xiang on the shoulder affectionately. This Japanese is not bad-hearted."

Li Xiang gave Wang Jingwei a white eye.
