Chapter 163 Negotiation Results

Beijing, Zhongnanhai, the Chairman and others were discussing what the situation on the Korean battlefield was now. Now the Korean War has entered a white-hot stage, and many people have begun to speculate on the end of the war.

"Chairman, the Eighth Army of the United States has been besieged by us. Should we work harder at this time? Haha?"

"Chairman, I think we should work harder now and let the Americans taste our hardships. This time the 18th Corps did a very good job!"

The chairman smiled and said, "Of course the 18th Corps has done well. Their combat effectiveness has opened our eyes. I'm afraid that if the Korean War can end early this time, they will be the first contribution!"

Mr. Zhu smiled and said, "Yes, if you want me to say that the first merit is definitely from the 18th Corps. There is no objection to this. The most important thing we are now to grasp the situation well."

The Prime Minister said: "The 18th Corps is now besieging the entire Seoul. I think the Americans will have to consult us. I have received the news that the United States has become in chaos, and I am afraid they should have some action."

Just as they were discussing, the comrades in the General Office brought a telegram: "Chairman, good news for the Prime Minister, Americans are going to negotiate with each other, and they have to discuss the issue of the Korean Peninsula."

The Chairman quickly stood up and said, "What's the matter? Take it out and I'll take a look. Haha, I'll really let Enlai get the information. I want to see what the Americans are going to say!" The Chairman hurriedly ran to the General Office comrade.

The Chairman picked up the telegram and looked at it and said with a smile: "The Americans said they would negotiate with us on the sovereignty issue of the Korean Peninsula. I hope everyone can temporarily cease fire and actively discuss this matter!" The Chairman was excited when he heard this news.

The Prime Minister said: "If they want to negotiate, they will negotiate? I think we have to work harder. At that time, we must strive for an initiative in the peace talks!" The general meaning is to hit the Americans well and see if they are real or fake.

The Chairman nodded and said, "Well, I'm right, let's do it. Call them back and say that we will consider this matter." The Chairman's meaning is very obvious. Don't be false to me, negotiations should be sincere.

The United States quickly responded to the telegram, asking the Chairman and others to wait. Their negotiation team will arrive in China in the near future and have a good negotiation with the Chinese government, hoping to have a temporary ceasefire.

After thinking about it, the chairman felt that this matter was still very open, so he said directly: "Okay, continue to call them back and said we will wait for them for five days. In less than five days, we will launch the general attack."

The Chairman actually said that the general attack or not was completely fabricated. They are still in a stalemate with the Americans. However, the Americans' supply line has been cut off and they have no choice.

The lineup of the US delegation this time is still very luxurious. The representative of this negotiation is Lawrence, the US Deputy Foreign Minister.

Lawrence was also very depressed. Why? Because the president gave him a task that he didn't want to complete at all, but there was no way, so they could only pinch their noses to complete it.

When negotiating with the Chinese, Lawrence felt that it was a very shameful thing. He felt that his country's army was too unsuccessful. How could he let the Chinese ride on his neck and shit? But this is an order, and there is no way not to be implemented.

Lawrence and his delegation arrived in China on a special plane. The Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister received them. Such things are enough to be of the same level, neither humble nor arrogant. Besides, the negotiations were proposed by the Americans, not by us Chinese.

After Lawrence entered Zhongnanhai, he started negotiations directly. He felt that there was no need to talk nonsense now. Now he wanted to achieve results as soon as possible and then go home to hand in the work.

"What our US government hopes is to temporarily truce the Korean Peninsula, and both sides withdraw their troops, and then what to do? Do you know what you think?" Lawrence said with a smile.

The Chinese negotiator said with some sneer: "Don't Mr. Lawrence thinks this is like playing house for a child? Why are we going to withdraw our troops now? Could it be that we are besieged? Or are we threatened?"

Lawrence said righteously: "Does your side think we are afraid of you? Haha, what if you lose some troops? If you think we are easy to bully, then let's continue to fight!"

The Chinese representative completely ignored Lawrence's words and said: "If you feel it is really necessary to continue the battle, that's great. Our Chairman said that if the negotiations are not successful, we will launch a general offensive tomorrow!"

Lawrence wanted to get angry, but calmed down again. He knew that it was not the time to get angry, so he said, "Okay, now we have nothing to do with it. I want to hear your opinions!"

The Chinese representative said: "This time, you, the United States, not only invaded North Korea, but also attacked our border areas from time to time, causing our country to suffer great losses. We have damaged so many people in the war. We always have to compensate us? A compensation of 500 million US dollars, not being allowed to enter North Korea within 50 years is our bottom line! Mr. Lawrence, what do you think of our bottom line? Haha"

Lawrence immediately shook his head and said, "This is impossible, let us pay compensation? Haha, wouldn't we want others to laugh at it? This is absolutely impossible. Don't even think about it. If you don't have sincerity, then don't say this."

To be honest, Lawrence cannot accept the compensation, not to mention that the 500 million US dollars seems to be a lot, but it is actually not a lot compared to the entire United States. But this involves a problem of face. Lawrence can't agree.

The Chinese representative smiled and said, "Of course, this was done in private. As long as it is given, it can be kept confidential. It will definitely not be included in the signing terms. Please rest assured that this is not involved in the issue you mentioned."

Lawrence thought for a while and said, "If this is the case, I can consider it, but 500 million US dollars is too much. I think the maximum 100 million US dollars is enough!"

The Chinese representative said: "This is impossible. 500 million US dollars is just a piece of cake for the US government, and we know this. Moreover, our losses in this war were also very large. We just made reasonable demands. To be honest, 500 million US dollars did not even have one-fifth of our military expenditure. We negotiated with you with sincerity. If you think this request is too much, then we don't need to negotiate."

Lawrence thought about it and said that this time the president told me that he would talk about it no matter what, otherwise he would not be the deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Lawrence would not be able to joke about his throne.

Lawrence nodded in pain and said, "Okay, since that's the case, I will reluctantly agree, but I hope I won't mention some unacceptable conditions next. As for the impossible not to enter the Korean Peninsula in fifty years, South Korea is our ally, and we have the right to enter South Korea. As for North Korea, this can still be considered. We can still do this if we don't enter North Korea within fifty years."

The Chinese representative also laughed at it. Anyway, his bottom line is that Americans cannot enter North Korea within 50 years. The division between North Korea and South Korea is inevitable. Isn’t the main purpose this time to negotiate? If it is really negotiated, then as long as they don’t enter North Korea. As for South Korea, whatever they want! Anyway, China’s biggest wish now is to get a relatively peaceful and stable environment to develop itself. Can everything else be discussed?

The Chinese representative said: "Okay, I won't be able to enter North Korea's territory for fifty years. Haha, but what do you have to say about the division between North Korea and South Korea?" Since this has been mentioned, the Chinese representative simply made the matter clear.

Lawrence said: "Let's do this, just divide it based on the latitude of forty degrees north? What do you think? I think this is very fair, and forty degrees is easy to remember, right?" Lawrence still hopes to gain some rights.

The Chinese representative smiled and said, "Why don't we divide it according to thirty-five degrees? I think this is easier to remember. Haha, I wonder what Mr. Lawrence thinks?" The Chinese representative was very angry. Lawrence is not a thing anymore.

Lawrence said: "Then what do you mean?" Lawrence is very depressed now. Who gave him a handle in his hands? He has never had such a grievance in negotiations. Now he has tried what grievance is like, but he thinks it is better not to try it.

The Chinese representative smiled and said, "Let's do this, with the 38th degree north latitude as the benchmark, this is exactly the choice of splitting into two parts, and this is our bottom line. And I think we have done a good job, and I hope you can respect our opinions too!"

Lawrence didn't bother him: "There is no problem with this, but after signing the contract, I hope you can withdraw troops immediately, and the contract will be considered effective at that time."

The Chinese representative said: "Since you cannot enter North Korea, we can retreat to North Korea first. However, if you betray your faith and go back on your word, we will fight to the end even if we devote our efforts to the whole country."

Lawrence was shocked when he heard this. Could it be that he should not be so exaggerated? But Lawrence also knew that the Chinese would definitely do this. To be honest, Lawrence felt that the war must be one-sided at first, but in the end he did not expect such a result.

Lawrence finally knows that powerful technology may not necessarily lead to real victory in war. People who really fight will always be affected by various environmental and human factors.

The negotiations went smoothly, could it not go smoothly? Americans just think that if they could be one day earlier, they would have more hopes for success. Now they can't withstand such a big blow.

Americans now know that if they continue to drag on, the entire Seoul will be starved to death. How could the negotiators let these people go? Only when the negotiations come into effect can these people be withdrawn.

So now the efficiency of negotiations among Americans is so high. Lawrence only took one afternoon to finalize the details of the entire negotiation. Anyway, the main things have been determined and the details are easy to do.

After learning about the results of the negotiations, the Chairman was also very happy. Anyway, Americans should not be in vain. Five hundred million US dollars can do a lot of things, and the war ended sooner, which would harm China much less.

The Chairman’s appreciation for Wang Mingyu. If Wang Mingyu had not proposed such a tactic this time, the war would have lasted for a long time, but now everything has become different, and the environment in China will be improved all of a sudden.

It is precisely because of this that the Chairman sighed at the hard-earned situation today. Speaking of which, the Chairman was hesitant a few months ago, because the Americans' strength has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the Chairman had to consider this, but now it is different.

The Chairman is confident and very confident. Americans bowed their heads to China. Is there anything happier and more enjoyable than this? Although the end of the Korean War was unexpected, it was a fact that everyone was happy to see.

The Chairman and the Prime Minister were excitedly taken out their wine and started drinking. They had never had such a happy time since the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and the Liberation War. Now they have it again, so of course they are very happy.

Wang Mingyu is far away in North Korea, and he has not yet known all this. However, the Americans in Seoul seem to be a little unwilling to fight. Wang Mingyu only knows that the Americans are coming to negotiate, but he still doesn't know what the final result of the negotiations looks like.

Since the Americans are unwilling to fight, he is too lazy to fight. If he continues to fight like this, his brothers will be killed or injured. Although the Americans die more, Wang Mingyu is unwilling to die just like this.

Wang Mingyu was also thinking about what he should do if the war ended? After thinking for a long time, Wang Mingyu had not yet made a decision. However, the end of the war is much better than the war continues, and Wang Mingyu is in a relaxed mood now.

Even if the negotiations are inappropriate, there is no need to fight any more. But Wang Mingyu hopes that the negotiations can proceed smoothly. In this way, so many soldiers will be spared a lot of suffering.

China will enter a period of development one day earlier. As long as the country can get on track, Wang Mingyu feels that his mission will be completed.

The development of the country is what Wang Mingyu cares about the most... (To be continued)
