Part 6 Chapter 11 Joint Communiqué

A embarrassed flashed through Keze's eyes, and Chen Congyun couldn't help but smiled slightly, and felt relieved. Borrowing money is just a temptation. After the negotiations between China, Britain and France were suspended, the German government would certainly not be stupid enough to think that Chen Congyun would lean towards Germany. The Chinese government's behavior, if you can figure it out with a little brain, it is just to borrow the contradictions of the European powers and bargain at the negotiating table. After all, Europe is too far away from China. Assuming that the Chinese army set out from the Far East, even if there is no Russian attack along the way, it will take a year to walk. China and Britain and France have no irreconcilable sections. As far as the current international situation is concerned, the Allies still have a slight advantage. What is the reason for Chen Congyun to turn to the Allies?

The most likely strategy the Chinese government chooses is neutrality! The German minister has long reached an consensus with the domestic government. From the perspective of Germany's world policy, as long as China can remain neutral and maintain a little pressure on Russia's Far East, the Germans will be satisfied.

Countries and countries have always only talked about interests. If Germany wants the Chinese to turn to their own side, it can only gain enough advantages on the battlefield to impress the Chinese government. The Allied Powers are also very clear about this. Of course, the Allied Powers are also worried that China will turn to Germany, so there are negotiations between China, Britain and France on the Vietnam issue and China's customs issues.

In the final analysis, when Keze came to withdraw a loan, he hoped that Chen Congyun would give a clear attitude. As a politician, he naturally would not say anything in the light, so Chen Congyun's handling of the loan incident was equivalent to giving the Germans an explanation.

The battle in history lasted for four years and ended with the collapse of Germany's economy. Chen Congyun once had a malicious hope that it would be better to fight for ten or eight years in one battle, and it would be better to fight forever. Isn't it just to borrow some money? Although 100 million is not a small amount, it is still much more saving than to join the team and commit real guns to the war?

Isn’t the German government just asking China to maintain a neutral attitude for the time being? This is still something to satisfy. Anyway, I can’t suffer much loss, and I can still save Keze.

"Okay, I will ask about this matter myself. With the consistent good relationship between China and Germany, things should not be difficult to handle." Chen Congyun answered implicitly, and Keze smiled implicitly and expressed his understanding.

Next, Keze naturally stood up and said goodbye.

The French military's intelligence department was still very efficient. Before the end of the one-month inspection in France, the Chinese officers' delegation, with the cooperation of the Russian intelligence agencies, placed a report on the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army on Xia Fei's desk.

The Russian army's estimate of the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army is obviously more accurate than the French. After all, it was cleaned up by the Chinese army and its attitude is relatively correct. The main basis of the Russian army is the performance of the Chinese army in the Sino-Russian War. In this way, the Russian intelligence department has become quite objective, and has comprehensively given parity in all aspects, from equipment to the qualities of officers and soldiers and their fighting will.

For some purpose, the Russian intelligence department evaluated the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army as, "the comprehensive combat capability of the Chinese army is higher than that of the German army." This article undoubtedly attracted the attention of the French intelligence department and was marked with a red line. The French army had a little doubt about the judgment of the Russian army's intelligence department, but it still gave a rough evaluation of the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army, "The combat effectiveness of the Chinese army is not weaker than that of the army of the world's great powers today."

The French army's evaluation undoubtedly lists itself as a world-class strong army, which is somewhat humble, but it is not an exaggeration.

After reading the report, Xia Fei quickly wrote a proposal to the French Prime Minister. The core content was to stabilize China at the negotiating table. The worst result was that China remained neutral.

The sharing of intelligence between Britain and France made the British side soon see this information. The British army does not have a large number of troops, and it is mainly composed of professional soldiers. This determines that in the future wars, the ground war will mainly rely on France and the Russian army. In this sense, once a war breaks out and if the Russian army is dragged by China, Britain and France will face the German army's unscrupulous attack.

Soon, US Minister Rou Keyi visited Chen Congyun on behalf of the US government, expressing concerns about the deadlock in relations between China, Britain and France, and at the same time, the two sides also exchanged views on the tension in Europe.

On the third day after Rou Keyi's visit, China, Britain and France sat down at the negotiating table again. This time the negotiation progress was much faster. The Chinese representative was aggressive, and the British and French representatives were repeatedly retreating. Where could there be a little bit of the style of the world's number one power?

After half a month of negotiations, China and France reached an agreement, and France recognized that the entire Vietnam was a protected area for China, and China recognized France's interests in Cambodia and other places. Based on the basis of friendly exchanges, China and France gave each other the most-favored-nation treatment. France's leases from various parts of China were returned to China in the past.

The negotiations between China and the UK were also very smooth. One of the most exciting agreements among the Chinese people is that from the date of the contract, the British government will cooperate with the Chinese government to prohibit opium from flowing into China. Other agreements are similar to the China-France agreement.

Since the contract was signed in Shanghai and jointly signed by China, Britain and France, it is known in history as the Joint Communiqué of China and Britain and France. This communiqué is the first equality treaty signed by China and the world's great powers since the First Opium War, declaring the status between China and the world's great powers and undergoing fundamental changes.

…………………………………………………………………………

"Equal international status is not achieved by urging your mouth, but by gaining it by strong strength. We cannot be lucky at any time. We must work hard to build a strong country down-to-earth. This is the fundamental reason why the Chinese nation can always stand on the top of the world's nation." Chen Congyun once again published his thoughts on the "United Nations Communiqué" in the newspaper. The Central Daily News used the evaluation of "the guide of the nation, the guiding light of the country" for the first time on Chen Congyun.

"You are engaged in personality cult! There are no saints in this world, and there are no eternal right people!" Li Wei, who was deliberately flattering, was called to the office by Chen Congyun and scolded him.

Although this discordant note appeared, it was soon drowned in the wave of national celebration. The first to march on the streets were still young students. They held up banners such as "Long live President Shen" and "Long live the Chinese nation" and shouted slogans to vent their passion deep in their hearts.

"When the Chinese nation appears as a world power, please do not forget the countless sufferings that accompanied us after being opened by guns and cannons decades ago. Do not forget the unequal treaties imposed on us by imperialism." The comments of the idle people in Nanshan were like a clear stream between the fanaticism.

With the signing of the Joint Communiqué, the incorporation of Vietnam into China's territory came into being. In mid-May, the Nguyen Dynasty announced its resignation, and the Han Dynasty, Vietnam, which was once part of China's territory, once again became China's territory.

The whole country celebrated for a whole week. Chen Congyun, as the president, was not very excited, but appeared alone in the quiet backyard every night. A pot of wine and a stack of peanuts looked into the night sky, and occasionally a soft sigh.

It has been almost thirty years since I came to this world, and in a flash of thought, it can be said that it is a flash of fingers. No one can share the loneliness brought to Chen Congyun by time travel. Only when the moonlight like water in the quiet night sky flows gently on his body, Chen Congyun dares to find out the deepest memories in his heart and taste them alone.

……………………………………………………

In a luxurious hotel in Paris, Chen Yiyang sat up from the bed and felt a pain like a needle prick in his mind.

Chen Yiyang was confused and felt something pressing on his thighs. He didn't bother to open his eyes. He raised his hand and slid into the bathroom. After a while of cold water, a rhythmic impact sound came from Yang Zhi's room next door, mixed with the woman's moans.

"Damn it!" Chen Yiyang rushed out of the bathroom, and under the messy quilt, a leg that should belonged to a woman appeared. Slap! Chen Yiyang slapped his forehead hard, and he remembered it a little. Last night, he attended a party held by the French military, and there were many Yingying and Yanyan.

Chen Yiyang experienced the unrestrainedness of French women for the first time, and was also dizzy by the strong perfume smell of French women. At the party, Yang Zhi was like a fish in water, dealing with French women. Although there were obstacles to language barriers, these obstacles did not seem to have much impact on Yang Zhi. This guy just used gestures to let the French women understand what he wanted to express, and then he smiled happily one by one with red faces.

Chen Yiyang found that he could already know the answer without lifting the quilt, because the woman's clothes were scattered on the floor. If nothing unexpected happened, the quilt should be a naked French woman under it.

The sound insulation effect is not very good. Chen Yiyang clearly heard Yang Zhizai roar in a low voice: "French bitch, I will kill you." Then there was the sound of slapping. Judging from the part of the sound, Yang Zhi's slap should be hitting the woman's butt.
Chapter completed!
