When Zhou Wen heard this, he became even more confused.
Siam takes the initiative to show goodwill to our country? Does this happen in history?
At the same time, he kept slandering the principal who deliberately betrayed him.
"Just tell me what's going on. Why are you still making secrets and talking about this and that? Do you have a lot of time?"
But he didn't show any sign of impatience on the surface, he just acted like he was all ears.
The principal is very satisfied with Zhou Wen's attitude. He wants to rub this kid every chance he gets. It seems that if he doesn't do this, he won't be able to show his authority as the first person in the Republic of China in front of Zhou Wen.
The principal then said seriously: "The special envoy of King Rama VII of Siam has secretly arrived in Nanjing and brought a letter of credence written by the king himself, requesting our country's help."
Zhou Wen frowned and thought about it. This was indeed Siam taking the initiative. There must be many benefits to the Republic of China and framework ideas for further cooperation in the credentials. But the question is, how can the Republic of China government help? What can you do to help?
Moreover, what does this help have to do with myself?
Zhou Wen started thinking rapidly in his head. It's not that he wants to explore some mystery now, the principal will always tell him anyway. But if you think about it clearly first, you can judge the pros and cons earlier and gain the right to speak in front of the principal.
The information in the document and the current request of the King of Siam passed through his mind like a slide show, and he immediately had a guess.
You must know that the greatest skill of the mercenary group is to fight and kill, and they do not touch any foreign policy or national policy. The principal came to him not to ask for advice, but to ask him to take action.
To whom?
It can only be a member of the military cabinet who has a heart for Siam or directly the prime minister named Na Bowen.
As soon as he thought of this, the principal said: "I asked you to come because there is a major event related to the fate of the country that I want to entrust you to handle. You take people to Siam, and with the cooperation of the King's Department personnel, assassinate Na Bowen and him. The main goal of those cabinet subordinates is to get Bowen, and the ministers under them should also try to kill as many as possible, the more the better."
Zhou Wen's face immediately turned ugly, and he was too lazy to hide it.
Damn it, you really think that I am your subordinate, and I am at your mercy. This kind of narrow escape is so easy to say in your mouth, and the more kills, the better, as if I have missiles, and one missile from Nanjing can hit Siam.
And going to a strange country to assassinate the leader of a family is something that humans do? The assassination seems easy, but what will I do after the assassination? How to return home safely? When the time comes, I will be surrounded by enemies, isolated and helpless, and will have nowhere to run. Isn’t this asking me to die?
I'm about to get married, but you want me to die. That's not a good principal.
What made Zhou Wen even more disgusted was that the principal actually said something important about the fate of the country, as if I would become a sinner of the country if I didn't agree. This is Chi Guoguo's moral kidnapping.
If the principal said this to those ordinary patriotic young people, maybe there would be a sense of passion and honor for the people who were given a great responsibility by heaven, but to Zhou Wen, it was just a fart.
Zhou Wen knew that Siam was a typical wallflower in history. At the beginning of World War II, it completely surrendered to Japan. All military ports and military bases were controlled by the Japanese, and Thailand was used as a springboard and logistics base for Japan to attack Southeast Asia. And actually declared war on the Allies.
But in the later stages of World War II, when the Allied forces were victorious and the sun was setting on Little Japan, Siam began to secretly contact Britain and the United States again, claiming that it was forced to do so.
Brother, you really don’t blame me for this. I was forced to join the Japanese pirate ship. In these years, my brother, I was in the Cao camp and my heart was in the Han Dynasty. In fact, I am of the same mind as several of my brothers.
In order to show their loyalty and not dare to bear the consequences of falling out with the Japanese, Siam still kneels down and licks the Japanese in China. Even though he ate chaffy vegetables, rice and meat, he still happily gave them to the Japanese, but secretly he kept selling Japanese intelligence to the Allies and acted as a second-in-command.
After the Japanese Emperor announced his unconditional surrender, just as people all over the world were celebrating victory, the Siamese rolled their eyes and immediately declared that the declaration of war against the allies was invalid and abrogated all treaties signed with Japan. The Siamese pushed six, two, and five, and these didn't count.
It is said that Siam is also a member of the Axis Powers and should have been severely punished after the war. However, due to some cunning operations by the Siamese government, the two-sided foreign policy pursued actually worked.
Of course, the main reason was that the international environment at that time was relatively complicated. All the victorious countries were quarreling over the division of the cake and almost rolled up their sleeves to fight. Who the hell could care about this small country?
Therefore, the Siamese people's account was not mentioned in black and white.
In the end, the Siamese government was not liquidated and received almost no punishment.
The most bizarre thing is that the Siamese government not only did not lose money, but actually made a fortune after the war.
The Siamese believed that the Japanese caused huge losses to the Siamese people and the Siamese economy during World War II. He used this as a reason to demand compensation from the Japanese. Moreover, the Siamese also produced a very detailed list, bills and accounting information as evidence. This note was so meticulous.
In contrast, we Chinese people are just too down-to-earth, and we suffer a loss if we don’t have this kind of mind. At that time, the Japanese knew about this and were completely confused. Siamese, are you here to have sex? But in the end, Siam actually succeeded in claiming compensation, with a total compensation of 15 billion yen.
You know, the Japanese yen back then was not what it is today. 15 billion yen was a huge sum of money. Siam also relied on this huge sum of money to develop its economy and education, and finally became a relatively developed country in Southeast Asia. nation.
But in Zhou Wen's opinion, regardless of whether Siam still develops according to its original historical trajectory, their direct conflict of interest with China is not that big. Moreover, if Japan really wants to win such a weak country, it can only happen in a snap of the fingers. How can it be the turn of the Republic of China government to intervene? What's more, even if you want to intervene, you don't have the ability.
But these things cannot be explained to this principal who has high vision but low power and is obsessed with dreaming of becoming a great nation. There is no need to explain.
My brother will not participate in this kind of thing.
So Zhou Wen sat quietly and said nothing, his eyes lowered, not looking at the principal's increasingly ugly face.
The air in the study suddenly became solemn.
If it were an ordinary person, under the suppression of the official authority and aura of the principal, the number one person in the Republic of China, it would be difficult to breathe, but Zhou Wen was not afraid at all and just sat there.
The fact that he didn't speak already represented his attitude, that is, I won't do it!
