"According to conservative estimates by economic and fiscal scientists, in the past eight years, Japan has plundered hundreds of billions of marks of hard currency such as gold, silver, gems, and millions of tons of food, minerals, wood and other resources from its occupied areas. In contrast, even more than a century ago, the British Empire's brutal invasion of backward countries was far from such amazing gains, let alone the performance of the German team during the occupation of Belgium, France, and Britain. Given that the Japanese government and military ignored international conventions recognized by civilized society, their various actions have completely exceeded the most basic moral constraints. It can be said to be a group of evil and barbaric beasts. We believe that it is necessary to take a special sanction measure, which will be called the "Sanctuary Plan" for the time being."

After nightfall, on a cruise ship sailing gently on the Swabian River, diplomatic officials from ten Chinese countries, including Germany, America, Austria, Italy, I, I, West, Portugal, A, Pakistan, and Chinese, gathered together on a cruise ship sailing smoothly on the Swabian River. There were no recorders, no translators, and no spotlights. The bright lights on both sides of the straits shone in a relatively relaxed manner. The representatives sat around the large oval wooden table in a relatively smooth manner, talking in standard fluent or English with various accents.

As the organizer of this special meeting, Ireland sent Deputy Prime Minister Short O'Greddy to come. This famous figure from a veteran Celtic noble family made everyone feel excited with his handsome and steady demeanor, elegant and generous temperament and humorous and decent conversation, and his organized discourse strengthened a lot of strength for Ireland's political appeal.

"The 'Sanctuary Plan' is mainly divided into two parts. The first part is to protect the human right to survive in the occupied areas. What we need to do now is to expand the scope of application of refugee passports during the war, open land and maritime borders to the occupied areas, and help those who are threatened with survival rights in the occupied areas to regain their freedom and live in peace. The second part is to protect the property rights of governments and residents of the occupied areas. First, it is to completely freeze the assets of the belligerent or occupied countries in their own countries, and prohibit any transfer of assets from the occupied countries, especially the transactions made using gold plundered from the occupied countries. Second, it is to establish an international compensation committee based on the League of Nations to encourage participating countries to make fair compensation to victims of the war."

The "Sanctuary Plan" stated by the Deputy Prime Minister here is an upgraded version of the "Nansen Passport" in the old time and space and the expansion of the United States' "Safe Harbor Plan" during World War II. Its purpose is very clear, that is, to limit Japan's economic infiltration into other neighboring countries, prevent Japan from occupying the assets of sovereign states, and curb the continuous expansion of Japan's economic and military strength. Whether the plan can be implemented and successful depends not only on the determination of the two powerful men of Germany and the United States, but also to a large extent on the wishes of each small and medium-sized country.

Without waiting for the comments from representatives of various countries to make comments, the Chinese representatives rose up and once again complained about the barbaric and brutal behavior of the Japanese invading army on Chinese territory. They also used official statistics of China to prove that the Japanese army plundered wealth, resources, and great damage to the economy and society of the occupied areas.

"The Japanese army's actions in military-occupied areas and the territory of the protectors were comparable to the darkest medieval times. Spain was indignant for its tyrannical behavior. We deeply sympathize with the people of the invaded and oppressed countries. However, unless all non-Asian countries join this protection and strictly implement it, they will not play a role at all. From 1940 to the present, the amount of trade between Spain and Japan can be measured in kilograms, but what is the effect?

Where? The evidence provided by the Russians is clearly placed there!" After saying that, Spanish diplomat Canisares looked at the audience with a profound meaning. At this regular meeting of the League of Nations Council, the Soviet representatives who attended as non- League of Nations members provided a series of documentary and image evidence to prove that the fighter jets made in Italy and heavy artillery produced by the Austro-Hungarian Empire were still being continuously supplied to the Japanese army, becoming their accomplices in the invasion of other countries.

At the Council of the League of Nations, representatives of Italy and Austro-Hungary had tried their best to argue that these weapons and equipment flowed into Japan through smuggling channels. The Italian and Austrian governments did not violate the subjective behavior of the League of Nations resolutions. In the future, they would impose stricter controls on their industrial enterprises. Since the evidence provided by the Soviet Union could not prove that the governments of Italy and Austria condoned or acquiesced to sell banned materials to Japan, the Council of the League of Nations had no way to punish these two countries, and the final result was only condemnation.

The diplomatic official representing the Italian government to attend the Council of the League of Nations was Count Galeázzo Ziano, who was only 39 years old. Even without the "big tree" of Mussolini, the strong political capital and material wealth of the Ziano family still provided strong support for his rise in politics. Ziano did show his talent in the field of diplomacy and got the opportunity to make his mark on the international diplomatic stage. As soon as the Spanish diplomat finished his voice, the Italian Count defended in a disapproving tone:

"Everyone, Italy exports more than 200 military aircraft every year. The appearance of several Maki fighters and Fiat bombers on the Far East battlefield does not prove anything. First, no country in the world can completely eliminate smuggling; second, Italy cannot prevent other countries from purchasing Italian aircraft at low prices and reselling them to Japan at high prices; third, in some African countries that have not been invaded by foreign enemies, deaths caused by hunger and violence are still everywhere. Do Africans have no right to survive? But why have few countries paid attention to their living conditions for a long time? In fact, even in the worst years of the economy, Italy has always provided assistance to poor tribes in North and East Africa."

The diplomatic officials of the Austro-Hungarian Empire quickly agreed: "For a long time, our trade with Japan has been established on the premise that it does not violate international conventions and resolutions of the League of Nations. All goods sold to Asia must undergo strict inspections by customs and coast guards before leaving the shore. At present, we are conducting a inventory of artillery exported by the Skoda Arsenal in recent years, but the number is too large. Some are used to equip coastal defense fortresses, some are used to equip naval warships, and some are used for army field forces. There are 14 exported countries. It is difficult to guarantee that these 14 countries have resold our weapons and equipment to Japan. Once verified, we will strictly punish the breach of contract according to the terms of the contract and stop selling weapons and equipment to the country within a certain period of time."

"From a military perspective, it is not difficult to completely solve the smuggling problem!" The only active-duty soldier here, Marshal Bernke, the commander of the German Empire Cabinet, who had outstanding military achievements, leisurely held a cigar and spoke in his English without any clear words.

"We have formulated an effective maritime blockade plan many years ago to act quickly after the League of Nations has formed a comprehensive blockade resolution. Now a comprehensive blockade seems difficult to implement, but this plan is not useless. As long as countries reach an agreement, the League of Nations peacekeeping forces will not compensate ships carrying contraband to Japan and its controlled areas on the spot, and believe that with the efficiency of the German Navy and the cooperation of the US Navy, everyone's troubles will be resolved within three months."

Due to prior communication, the US diplomatic officials present immediately stated: "The US Navy has the responsibility to deal with the peacekeeping mission assigned by the League of Nations!"

Under the military intimidation of Germany and the United States, Ziano's face changed slightly, and the Austro-Hungarian diplomats next to him were all uneasy.

"This kind of maritime peacekeeping mission is expensive and has certain technical difficulties, so..." The Irish Deputy Prime Minister glanced at everyone present and then expressed his gratitude: "The Irish government is willing to bear the fuel consumption of half of the peacekeeping ships, and send as many radar-equipped ships as possible to participate in the operation to ensure that no heavy weapons enter the embargo zone until the Japanese government puts chains on their beasts."

Although this is just a military intimidation and there are still many obstacles to overcome before the journey is completed, the Chinese representative murmured alone as if he was amnesty: "So good, so good!"

From the autumn of 1940 to the summer of 1942, in the past two years, the Chinese team, which was seriously lacking heavy equipment, had been tenaciously fighting the Japanese attack with flesh and blood. The reserves during the three-year armistice period had long been exhausted, and guns and ammunition were barely maintained by relying solely on their own production and limited aid from the Soviet Union. If it weren't for the astonishing courage and courage to fight a blocking battle comparable to the Battle of Verdun, and blocking the Japanese main force under Changsha City at the cost of the blood of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, the Chinese team would probably not be able to survive the war in the Soviet Union and Japan.

The strength of a country determines the status of the country in international occasions, so no one here notices the behavior of the Chinese representative. Most people's attention is still on the Irish Deputy Prime Minister.

"Similarly, if the Soviet Russian army enters China and the Korean Peninsula and engages in forced tax collection, we will impose corresponding sanctions on the Soviet Union. In fact, our military observers have followed the Soviet Union for a period of observation. From the current situation, the Soviet Union's military is indeed much more civilized than the Japanese army. As long as they maintain the necessary restraint on their actions, the normal trade between us and the Soviet Union will remain smooth."
