"Jiang, I heard that there is a proverb in China that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Look, we all came here alone. Who has the final say between you and Zhou?"
As soon as Fatty Qiu finished speaking, Franklin and Zhongcai's faces instantly turned ugly. Isn't this talking about the bald man in front of the monk? No educated politician would ask this question on this occasion, even Joseph. Stay away from him in disgust, something only a political scoundrel can do.
Before Franklin could smooth things over, Xiangyu took the initiative to stand up and said without being humble or condescending:
"Sir is a descendant of China. There is only one China in the world, so naturally he has the final say."
Zhongcai's face suddenly looked much better. Xiangyu was indeed someone he respected, and his answer was very accurate. He not only expressed Zhongcai, but also emphasized China.
Franklin cast admiring glances at Xiangyu. Yanzhou gave him too many surprises, and he had greater expectations for the next step of cooperation with Yanzhou.
As for Fatty Qiu, he looked at him with contempt. He knew what Fatty Qiu meant, which was that he was not willing to be pulled down from his position as the boss. Finding fault with Hua Xia was a lie, but embarrassing him and Yingjiang was the real thing.
He is the host and the de facto leader of the alliance. When Fatty Qiu slaps Hua Xia in the face, he is hitting him and Ying Jiang in the face——
"Hmph! I thought I was the boss. I'll deal with you later!"
Franklin, who had always been good-tempered, was already angry. Unfortunately, Fatty Qiu could not feel Franklin's anger and continued to run wildly on the road to death. He continued:
"If that's the case, then why did you come here? There's no lunch here for everyone waiting!"
Xiangyu ignored him, turned to Franklin and said coldly:
"Mr. Franklin, do you need us to leave? Does John Bull have the final say here?"
Franklin shook his head. This is the Justice League Summit. Everyone is an equal ally. No one has the final say, including John Bull of course!
Yanzhou is a distinguished guest invited by our Yingjiang, and we have prepared a sumptuous lunch;
You have come a long way, and in Chinese terms, you have to sit at the table! "
Now it was Fatty Qiu's turn to be embarrassed. Joseph, who liked to make trouble, also stood up and said:
"Davari week, this summit was convened by Mr. Franklin. Naturally, he is the host. We are all invited guests. You don't have to pay too much attention to the behavior of some people who claim to be the host. This is not the British Isles. .
If he does not want to attend the sumptuous banquet prepared by Mr. Franklin, then the four of us will do it;
Don’t you have a proverb in China?
You can’t get to the table without carrots! "
Now it was Fatty Qiu's turn to be completely dumbfounded. His face was slapped and he was so angry that he was breathing like a cow. He really wanted to slam the door and leave;
But now John Bull is no longer the empire that the sun never sets when the world trembles when it takes a breath.
There are all big guys here, and they really don’t have the capital they are proud of. If the eldest cousin Ying Jiang doesn’t take him to play, he really has no sense of existence. Besides, he has come to ask for help from China this time.
I originally thought of suppressing them first, and then letting Huaxia work for them for free, but I didn't expect that they would be out of control for a while, and they would be squeezed out by Joseph. It was really a matter of staying or leaving.
Fortunately, Franklin didn't really want to kick John Bull out. After all, they were cousins. He broke bones and connected tendons. Later, he relied on his cousins to deal with Joseph together.
Seeing that his little cousin had learned his lesson, Franklin stood up and smoothed things over. Fatty Qiu used the slope to get off the donkey, and the matter was over.
Through this confrontation, he finally understood that Franklin now attaches great importance to Yanzhou, including Joseph. It is nothing more than that they are all eyeing the Chinese Expeditionary Force.
He thought that Joseph was the most anxious about opening a second battlefield. Black Bear had been fighting Adolf's millions of troops alone on the mainland for three and a half years, and almost all the men were dead. Naturally, he was looking forward to opening a second battlefield as soon as possible;
Based on John Bull's national strategic interests, he did not want to open a second battlefield too early. John Bull's mainland policy for hundreds of years was all about balancing. It would be best if both Hans Cat and Black Bear fought to the last drop of their blood, and then Under the mediation of John Bull, they made peace and did not give their eldest cousin a chance to interfere in Europa affairs, so that John Bull could continue to be the boss of Europa.
The abacus was ticking, and he had already sensed that Yingjiang was eager to take over, so he was messing around. This was to ask for directions and test Yingjiang's determination to send troops to Europa.
What he just found out made him feel very deep. Franklin was trying his best to promote Huaxia, and there could only be one result: Yingjiang would force his way into the position!
Now there is only one multiple-choice question before John Bull:
To follow or not to follow?
"Shit!"
After Fatty Qiu cursed his older cousin in his heart, he finally gave in and stopped playing with him because he didn't want to play with others.
It can be said that each of the four countries has its own demands at the summit. Joseph just wants to open a second battlefield as soon as possible to reduce the pressure on the Eastern Front;
Yingjiang needs to use this summit to confirm its status as the boss, just like the Five Hegemons of China's Spring and Autumn Period, and at the same time, they will take the lead in distributing post-war benefits;
John Bull originally wanted to delay or even prevent the opening of the second battlefield, and then try to get China to send troops to help them eliminate the Japs in the Asan Kingdom, and at the same time get back the colonies that were snatched away during the War, such as the Emerald Country, Johor, Australia, etc.;
There is no clear political appeal in Shuzhong, he just wants to prove that he is one of the four giants, his face is greater than the sky, and he will go back to fight the civil war when he is done;
The purpose of Yanzhou was to legalize the benefits obtained during the war and at the same time seek a safe space for China after the war.
The alliance is not just a treat for dinner, it is all for the national interest, and it is not shameful even if the fight is red in the face. In this regard, the political ability of Zhongcai is completely outclassed;
Others were here for profit, but he was here for face, so he was inferior. Franklin shook his head when he saw it. In the end, Xiangyu had to go into battle because the other two were too shameless!
Xiangyu immediately said angrily:
"China's national interests are sacred and inviolable! As an important force of the victorious country, the unequal treaties signed between the great powers and China for a hundred years must be abolished!
Otherwise, China will not send troops to Europa, nor will it recognize all the unequal treaties signed before. China now has the strength to safeguard its legitimate rights and interests and say no to all hegemonism imposed on China! "
After Xiangyu finished speaking, Franklin first expressed his legitimate demands to support China. As one of the four giants, this is the status he deserves;
Immediately promised to give up the Gengzi compensation and return the part that had been received before;
Joseph stated that he would abide by Comrade Vladimir's promise and that the historical issues between the two parties had been resolved, without mentioning a word about returning the Boxer Indemnity.
The Black Bears are so poor that they are already wearing their pants. As long as they do not tear up the previous agreement, China will no longer pursue Gengzi compensation.
Xiangyu also expressed his position:
"Huaxia and Black Bear are friendly neighbors and allies who fight against evil together. The historical issues between the two sides have been resolved. The two sides work together to defeat the common enemy, the evil alliance."
Joseph breathed a sigh of relief, but was worried that Huaxia would ask him for money. He really didn't have it. If he didn't ask for money, his life would be at stake.
Now all the pressure has been put on Fatty Qiu, who is still pretending to be dumbfounded, as if it has nothing to do with him.
Joseph and Franklin were both waiting to see how Xiangyu would make this hob meat spit out the benefits he should spit out;
Their mentality is very simple. If they want to withdraw, everyone should withdraw together. It is unreasonable to give you and John Bull's family an advantage!
