Section 53 External Power
Indeed, as Ying Jianming and Cui Wenxiu thought, Wufeng's problems at this time were much more complicated and far-reaching than those who were a person. The mastery of the people's hearts and opinions, the layout control of the imperial capital, and the choice of allies were all extremely realistic problems before them. Even Wufeng himself didn't know what the kings would solve. He was also a little confused. Fortunately, with Lin Yuexin around him, he could tell many troubles and doubts that he could not reveal to others. But even if he was close to Lin Yuexin and An Qier, he could not tell them all. Sometimes men had to maintain the necessary dignity and prestige in front of his women. This was the creed that Wufeng had set for himself with gritted teeth.
Liu Fujie, who was promoted to the Director of the Mainland Department of the Foreign Service for his excellent performance in negotiations with Bai, has set off for Jiujiang. He will once again secretly serve on behalf of Wufeng. Wang Jiexiu, who was promoted to the Director of the Foreign Service Department of the Foreign Service Department, was entrusted by Wufeng to lead a huge diplomatic mission to officially go to the Japanese territory. The purpose is very simple. In the name of cracking the alliance between Situ Tai and the Japanese, he will prepare for the future of facing the Japanese government. After the mission to the Japanese territory, the diplomatic delegation will also go to the Kingdom of Milan, the Principal of Andako and the Grand Duchy of Mahad to attend the 20th anniversary of the ascension of the Grand Duke of Mahad.
On Cheng Dayou's side, Wufeng has always had certain hope. He hopes that Cheng Dayou can see the current situation and make the right choice. The necessary diplomatic efforts are very necessary. With Liu Fujie's flexible means and his improper eloquence, Wufeng believes that he can bring him a satisfactory answer.
On the Japanese side, Wufeng never had any hope. With the greedy nature of the Japanese, I am afraid that the islands outside the coast of the Empire will still find it difficult to satisfy their appetite. Baodao, Kamchatka, and Ryukyu Islands are all inherent territories of the Empire and are also the interests of the Empire's Eastern Ocean. Wufeng never thought that he would trade these things. Although he is occupied by the Japanese, in Wufeng's heart, these things will sooner or later be taken back with principal and interest. The Tanghe nation not only needs to become a great continental nation, but also a powerful marine nation. This is Wufeng's dream deep in his heart. To realize this dream, it is naturally an unshirkable responsibility to safeguard the inherent marine sovereignty of the Tanghe nation. Of course, the superficial diplomacy is also necessary, at least he must also express his respect for those Japanese.
On the other hand, he seemed to be the same object as Situ Tai who could negotiate and trade, just a matter of price level. Although Wufeng never thought that he would really sit down with the Japanese to negotiate. The Japanese already had diplomatic channels and secret spokespersons in the imperial capital, which was enough to prove that the Japanese were so attractive and ambitions. Wufeng received an invitation to send diplomatic missions to the Japanese through this channel. The Japanese were also paying attention to Wufeng, a powerful representative who had become an indispensable power representative of the Tanghe Empire. They also hoped to understand the possibility of this military strongman in cooperation. It was Wufeng who set the diplomatic tone for Wang Jiexiu's trip to the Japanese. In areas where his power could not reach, maintaining a relatively low-key situation is more in line with the current interests of Western Xinjiang.
As for the Kingdom of Milan, the Principality of Andako and the Grand Principal of Mahad, they are also part of the active diplomacy of Western Xinjiang. From this level, Western Xinjiang has bypassed the Imperial General Administration of Foreign Affairs and began to launch a diplomatic offensive independently. It seems that these countries have gradually accepted this reality. The split of the empire has become, and various entities have the ability to independently express their foreign policies. The Milanese are naturally the focus. Wufeng believes that the Milan Navy needs to restrain the Japanese in the East for at least a period of time, and the Western Xinjiang Navy still relies on the Milanese people in many aspects. Moreover, although the Milanese people have weakened their influence on Jiangnan, they still cannot be underestimated for Western Xinjiang.
The Principality of Andako and the Grand Principal of Mahad are still an indispensable part of Western Xinjiang diplomacy. Being in harmony with the two countries can make the two countries stand on their own side in the future in the fight with the Machi Khans. The other two countries also have excellent strength at sea. They can not only restrain the Japanese people, but also cooperate with the growing Western Xinjiang Navy to form a pincer attack on the Nanyang Alliance Navy. Of course, these are relatively far away, but diplomatic layout has always been to start from the long term. The earlier the layout is, the more relaxed and relaxed it will be when needed in the future. Many things need to be prepared in advance to avoid being caught off guard.
Of course, these things cannot be achieved in a short period of time. The diplomatic mission led by Wang Jiexiu has as many as twenty people, including both diplomatic personnel and a large number of intelligence officials and communication personnel from the Government Affairs Bureau. They each bear different responsibilities. In Wufeng's mind, the Japanese can rise in such a short period of time, and learn from the other party's strengths and discover the other party's weaknesses. This is the basic requirement for Wufeng to the General Administration of Intelligence. For the situation of the Japanese, Wufeng is not very satisfied with the intelligence collection of the General Administration of Intelligence in this regard.
A faint moonlight fell in the courtyard. Wufeng and the girl in snow were walking happily in the courtyard. The courtyards of the two houses had been opened. The courtyards that were not large seemed much spacious. They climbed on wooden frames on both sides to cover the sky with vines and plants. Walking in it was cool and leisurely, the stone slabs were smooth and tidy, and the winding paths were secluded. Passing through a small arched door, a small back garden was in between.
Wufeng seemed very relaxed at this time, and Lin Yuexin was a little surprised. His fiancé seemed to have not been in high spirits these days. The news from all parties in the imperial capital that the control of the Imperial Guards did not seem to have changed. Who should be the one, who can't make up their minds, and those who can't make up their minds may not be able to see the true seal until the last moment. The chaos of the situation once made Wufeng very distressed. He entered the imperial capital in an unknown way and took such a big risk. If he could not obtain some substantial benefits, not only Su Qin would not only do so.
Neither Wang Liao was satisfied, but even the left-behind people in the rear would feel that this trip was wronged. However, if they learned that it was this trip to the imperial capital that almost led to their devils and caused good fortune. With the help of several women, they were able to break through the bottleneck of the Three Yang True Power and finally achieved great success, they might feel a little comfort. At least Wufeng believed that he had the ability to get pregnant with his woman. Now it depends on which woman he worked harder and earlier on.
However, Wufeng seemed to have put down his burden and became very casual now, as if he didn't even take the meeting of the kings to be held tomorrow, which made Lin Yuexin very puzzled.
"Wufeng, you seem to have changed a little. Why do you think this meeting of the kings is no longer valuable?" Lin Yuexin's beautiful willow black eyebrows frowned slightly. She wanted to know what her lover was thinking in her heart.
"Yuexin, since we are about to see each other tomorrow, what's the point of worrying now? What should we do? We can't escape it. I'm mentally prepared to deal with the attack of Situ Sanzi. It's a pity that this is a world where strength determines everything. It's hard to really solve the problem by just criticizing the pen." With a chic smile, Wufeng shrugged and said calmly: "Don't worry, I have my own arrangements. Even if Situ Sanzi joins hands, it's not that easy to do anything in this imperial capital. I'm determined to do this imperial capital. No one can drive me out. As long as my people enter the city, there will be a share of my surname Li in this imperial capital."
The wild and domineering words shocked Lin Yuexin, as if she hadn't understood why this lover became a little unpredictable overnight. As if she had seen through what Lin Yuexin was thinking, Wufeng smiled slightly, "It's normal for me not to look at me like this, but I'm just a little emotional."
"Wufeng plans to let the Tiger Wing Army stay in the Imperial Capital City?" Ignoring Wufeng's subsequent words, Lin Yuexin paid more attention to the meaning contained in Wufeng's previous words.
"Do you think we still need to withdraw from the imperial capital? I can leave the imperial capital, but I must have the freedom to enter and exit the imperial capital at any time! Since Situ Tai can have the right to enter and exit the imperial capital, I, Li Wufeng, will be no exception!" Wufeng did not answer Lin Yuexin's question positively, but his meaning expressed this without any concealment.
"Are you determined to retain this power at all costs?" Lin Yuexin's words were even more direct and sharp.
Turning his head aside, Wufeng did not answer her question immediately, but was silent for a while before saying: "Yuexin, have you ever thought about it? If I give up this power this time, I don't know how many Xijiang Erlang will pay the price of my life for it next time. I don't want to see this scene! Xijiang Erlang's blood can be thrown into more useful places, but it should never be here!"
Lin Yuexin sighed quietly and said no more. At this time, she had no better reason to question. Military interests and political interests complement each other most of the time, but conflicts will occur at some point. Although military affairs must obey politics most of the time, when political interests and military interests are not equal, it is necessary to weigh the gains and losses of the middle as a person in power. Such a choice is difficult to simply say right or wrong. But Wufeng seems to have a gap that has not yet been completely settled. Perhaps he is also waiting for tomorrow's meeting to bring him something that he could not imagine.
