The political situation of the small man changed suddenly and the war situation became confusing. Affected by Sasaki Murakami's suicide, the negotiations were suspended on one day on the 22nd with the agreement between China and Japan. The representatives of both sides agreed to continue negotiations in Noi.

Will the negotiations continue?

No one can give an accurate answer.

On the night of the ugly day, Wang Yuanqing held an emergency meeting at the Yuan Dynasty.

Although Xiang Yinghui was not optimistic at all and believed that the war must be prepared to resume as soon as possible, under Wang Yuanqing's firm suppression, the Chief of Staff's opinion was not supported. Negotiation is still the only way to resolve the Sino-Japanese conflict. The Republic cannot take the risk of reopening the war and should not actively cause trouble.

Wang Yuanqing's views were supported by everyone. The Republic must make the best efforts for peace.

After the meeting, Wang Yuanqing kept Li Cunxun alone.

The Military Intelligence Bureau Director knew the meaning of the head of state, but Murakami Satoshi committed suicide by taking poison without any signs of hiding. Even if the Military Intelligence Bureau has the ability to do so, he cannot make accurate predictions.

"First of the People, we..."

"The Military Intelligence Bureau has done its best. You have no responsibility." Wang Yuanqing had long seen Li Cunxun's thoughts and said, "Not only did we not expect, no one could have expected. Murakami, who had been in Japan for ten years, would end his life by taking poison. He did not expect that Feng Shunmasa would choose to commit suicide at this time. The change in the situation has exceeded our control. If it were not expected, the Japanese soldiers represented by Katsushi Tokiya Katsu would come to power immediately. What I care about is whether the armistice negotiations can continue and what reactions other countries will make.

"It's been so sudden that we haven't heard about it yet."

Niu Yuanqing smiled faintly and said, "Information is very important, but in many cases, we must accurately analyze and judge the situation without exact information. I am not asking you for relevant information, but want to know your thoughts and your views on the future situation."

Li Cunxun frowned and picked up the cigarette on the table.

Taking this opportunity, Li Cunxun quickly thought about it and said, "I personally think that the Chief of Staff's concerns are not groundless, there are certain reasons."

"You mean, Japan will unilaterally tear up the armistice agreement reached with us?"

Li Cunxun nodded, took two puffs of cigarettes, and said, "The possibility is very high. From some perspectives, it is even inevitable. The situation has developed to the present, and our intention to end the war through arbitrage negotiations is very obvious, and we have also made great efforts on humanitarian issues. Not to mention whether the Japanese military will tear up the agreement that has been reached. If we resume large-scale strategic bombing after Japan slacking off the agreement, it will not cause greater losses to Japan. In other words, Japan has lost the cut and is not afraid of losing anything again. As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. The current situation is very unfavorable to us. If we fight, we will inevitably be criticized by the Western world. If we are not very good, it is possible that the United States and other Western countries will lose profits."

Wang Yuanqing breathed a long time and lit a cigarette.

Li Cunxun looked at the head of state and didn't say anything more. Yuan Yang's collection of gods had already told Li Cunxun that Yuan Bing had long thought of this possibility and was worried about this problem.

After pondering for a while, Wang Yuanqing said: "You are right. I also pay attention to Xue Xiangyinghui's concerns. It is not difficult to find the problem. The difficult thing is how to solve the problem. On the other hand, the requests we made at the negotiating table are indeed difficult to accept by Japan, and it is difficult for Japanese soldiers to accept by Japan. Even if Sasatsu Murakami is not dead, as long as we sign an armistice agreement with us, there is a possibility of civil strife in Japan, and Sasatsu Murakami will definitely be done. The difference is that Sasatsu Murakami ignored Japan's future and took the lead, making the situation very unfavorable to us and also gave Japan a chance to live in the work line."

Li Cunxun frowned, as if he didn't understand the meaning of the head of state.

"As you said at the beginning, what can we do if Japan regrets it?" Wang Yuanqing breathed a long time ago, took two puffs of cigarettes and said, "Continue to fight, we will fall into the trap of leftist dynasty and become the target of criticism of Western countries. If we don't fight, we will never be able to achieve the ultimate goal of this war. It won't take long. Maybe twenty years, and thirty years, Japan will once again pose a threat to us, and the international reputation of the Republic will also be affected, let alone challenge the United States. It seems that Sasashi Murakami died very much, but I am very convinced that at the last moment, Sasashi Murakami used self-sacrifice to save his son. If we changed our position in Sasashi Murakami, can we make the same sacrifice?"

"This is not important, what matters is how to deal with it."

Wang Yuanqing nodded and said, "It's not only that I am Ganshan, but also other countries. If the war is dragged on, it will not be beneficial to the whole world. Xingjian Ran's question is that at this critical moment, no one wants to make a statement first. If I guess correctly, the US and the EU will remain silent. Watch the situation and see the development of the situation before taking action. Western countries can do this. But we can't do it. If Japan is allowed to play cards first, we will definitely fall into a passive dilemma, and the Western countries will seize the handle and lose the winners before. "If we take the initiative, our policies will be vital."

"This is the difficulty," Wang Yuanqing wiped out the cigarettes and said verbally, "The policy has priorities. Too light and slow will make Japan feel that we are afraid, leading to a reversal of the negotiation situation, Bian too heavy and too urgent will make Japan embark on the road of continuing the war and force us to pay a higher price. Today I thought about it for a day and were thinking about how to play cards. Everyone discussed it at the beginning, but did not draw any useful conclusions."

Li Cunxun sighed secretly and said, "Yuan Bing, since you can't find a solution, you can only put it aside for the time being."

"If it can be temporarily put on hold, the problem will be solved." Wang Yuanqing smiled bitterly and said, "I thought it carefully and believed that there are only two solutions, one is to cut the mess with the knot. The other is to endure the pain and love. Although neither of them is a perfect beauty, it is much better than to remain silent. Choose the former, we are likely to maintain war relations with Japan for a long time. Even after completely defeating Japan, we can restore our peace and minimize the impact of war on the country. We still have to pay an extremely high price, and it may even reverse our relations with Western countries and accelerate the transformation of the world pattern, thus having a serious negative impact on our economic development and national construction. Choose the latter. We must give up part of the interests we have obtained, make major concessions in the negotiations, leave a breath for Japan, and lay the groundwork for another war that will be thirty years later.

Li Cunxun nodded, indicating that he understood Wang Yuanqing's meaning.

"Slaying the mess with a quick knife" means actively expanding the scale of the war and completely destroying Japan's national foundation. Let Japan return to the Stone Age and fundamentally solve the threats to the Republic. "Being endured in pain and love" means actively giving in, reaching a truce treaty with Japan through concessions, ending the war as soon as possible, and restoring the Republic's normal order.

No matter how you do it, there are inevitable negative effects.

Wang Yuanqing lit another cigarette and said, "I didn't raise this question in the meeting, and you know the reason. If it is raised, Xiang Yinghui will definitely have differences with Gu Weimin and Zong Yingren. It will have an adverse impact on our strategic decisions. Before making a decision, I want to play more opinions."

Li Cunxun smiled bitterly and said, "Head of the People's Republic of China, I don't have this ability."

"It's just an opinion, just say whatever you think." Wang Yuanqing did not let Li Cunxun go.

Knowing that it is impossible to avoid it, Li Cunxun pondered for a while and said, "From the short-term interests, we should definitely choose the latter. After all, Western countries have been involved in the war and humanitarian rescue operations have also been launched. We cannot take care of the feelings of other countries as we wish. Ending the war as soon as possible will not only be conducive to our country's economic development and the construction of the country, but also greatly improve our international status. The disadvantages are as follows: As the head of state said, we must be prepared for another war after twenty years, or three soldiers. From the long-term interests, we should definitely choose the latter. We can defeat Japan quickly in this war because we are well prepared, but Japan

We have been avoiding direct conflicts with our country. Twenty years later, or thirty years later, who can guarantee that we can still defeat our motherland, or defeat Japan like now? Strikes against Japan not only affect our country's national security, but also related to our country's reform process. Although we are all working hard to make the Republic stronger, the road ahead is difficult to say, and it is difficult to determine the situation twenty years later, or thirty years later. If we cannot win the consequences of "eliminating evil", we will definitely suffer the consequences in the future. The disadvantages are also obvious. The burden on the country is still a little bit of money. Whether we have the ability to confront the entire Western world is a big deal."

Wang Yuanqing nodded, indicating that his idea was consistent with Li Cunxun.

"I think it's better to be prepared for both hands." Li Cunxun glanced at the head of state and said, "We can force Western countries to change their original intentions and recognize the justice of the war against Japan, because every step we take has sufficient reasons. In any case, we should not take the initiative to tear up the armistice agreement. We must also actively promote the armistice negotiations. If Japan repents, no matter what we do, there are sufficient reasons and we are not afraid of Western countries' accusations."

"You're right, we can only do that."

"There is no need to make concessions in negotiations, let Japan make its own choice."

Wang Yuanqing pondered for a while and said 6, "It's true. How to choose without being humble? Japan must make a choice. As long as Japan makes a choice, we will take targeted actions."

"The preparations in both aspects must not be produced."

"You go to the General Staff and talk to Xiang Yinghui. He is a tough guy, and I'll say that it may not convince him. The work of the General Staff is very important. If Japan refuses to sign the armistice agreement, we must try our best to get Japan back to the Stone Age!"

Li Cunxun nodded and stood up to say goodbye to the head of state.

If you let me return to the Stone Age, I am afraid that the citizens of the Republic of B will not oppose it!
Chapter completed!
