Chapter 621 Xiao Ya vs. Nanzō Yunko
When Prime Minister Josephine saw that the two were silent, she knew that they were dissatisfied with her stubbornness.
He coughed to cover up his embarrassment and said, "I think we should give them these supplies. After all, these supplies are not that important to us.
Tony glanced at Josephine for a moment and shrugged. "Prime Minister, I'm not trying to discourage you, but you don't really think that we'll have to make another move just because we're using the same supplies we already have."
The situation is just like a vegetable market, changing every day. What they proposed at the beginning was just a very reasonable aid. As long as it was given, they would definitely go all out. But now, you still want them to make a move with the original thing. Is that possible?
"So what do you mean?" Josephine frowned. If it were not long ago, he would not care about this matter, but now, he cares deeply. After all, he is currently facing increasing pressure from Berlin, and there is no telling when they will attack.
"Now it's not a question of whether we give them supplies, but how much they want. Furthermore, we cannot object. Prime Minister, you must understand that if a war breaks out, we will lose far more than we give them."
The Defense Minister did not want to fight with Berlin.
The empire's outstanding commanders were almost all lost in the great purge a few years ago. Most of the current commanders on the front line were promoted from the bottom, or they were a group of flatterers.
It is undoubtedly a pipe dream to use this group of people to resist the Berlin army armed to the teeth.
"Let Levsky ask them what they mean." The Prime Minister said after putting the cigarette butt on the table.
Levsky looked at the coded message from Moshiko and sneered at Khabayev, who had already returned. "This is just a humiliation! If I had agreed back then, this wouldn't have happened. Just wait and see. If Zhou Weiguo doesn't ask for too much this time, I'll write my name upside down."
"You asked for it. I explained it clearly to Tony when I got back. Yamashiro's purpose was simply to force the Japanese army to attack other places to ease the pressure on them. As long as Berlin and Britain go to war, the Japanese army will likely attack British colonies. But the Prime Minister believes that they will do this whether we agree or not. He didn't consider that they actually have another way to go."
"As the saying goes in Shancheng, 'Misfortunes sent by Heaven can be forgiven, but those brought upon oneself are unforgivable.' It's all due to someone's stubbornness that things have gotten to this point. No one else is to blame." Levsky put the telegram into his briefcase and said, "Let's go, we should go see Zhou Weiguo."
Levski was going to meet Zhou Weiguo, and at that moment in Changsha, Xiao Ya, wearing a cheongsam, accompanied by Jinxiu and Du Xiaoyue, came to a private room on the third floor of a hotel in the south of Changsha.
This is the hotel where Nanzō Yunko is currently staying, and Xiao Ya came here today to discuss with Nanzō Yunko the issues of attack and defense between the two sides.
"Ms. Yunzi, I didn't expect that we would meet in a place like this. It's a pity that Mingzi has gone to the mountain city now. Otherwise, you sisters could have a good time catching up."
After entering the room, Xiao Ya did not talk about the matter immediately, but talked about Mingzi's situation.
Xiao Ya believed that a person who betrayed Mingzi intentionally or unintentionally for the sake of his sister was truly doing good for his sister, so she would explain Mingzi's situation in detail.
"As long as she's safe, I'm relieved. I've heard you were Zhou Weiguo's childhood sweetheart. I didn't think you were that great before, and even thought you were way above Zhou Weiguo's station. But now it seems you're truly a match made in heaven."
"Thank you for the compliment," Xiao Ya said after a moment's silence. "But I don't think we're here to flatter each other today. Let's first reach an agreement on what we both need, and then we can catch up."
Nanzō Yunko nodded. "You're right. We should put public interests before personal ones."
After she finished speaking, she glanced at Nakamura standing beside her. Nakamura immediately pulled out a high-definition military map from his briefcase. "This is General Okamura Yasuji. He asked me to give you a military map of your country and a world map. I think these will be invaluable to you."
Shancheng’s military maps have always been inaccurate, and there is not even a complete national map. However, the empire does have these, and as for the world map, there is only a rough outline, but there is no world map accurate to the county level.
"Thank you, this is indeed what we need most." Xiao Ya gestured to Jinxiu to take the map, and then took out a current military map of the Ninth War Zone. However, there was no troop deployment on this map, and it was blank.
Spreading out the map, Xiao Ya pointed toward Jiangxi. "We know that since General Okamura Yasuji is here to preside over the situation, the headquarters naturally hopes that he can once again achieve the brilliant success he achieved on the Shaanxi battlefield. Therefore, as a collaborator and friend, we have decided to give you Fengxin and several other counties in the south. We will also give you several counties in northwest Hunan."
The areas currently occupied by the 11th Army instantly emerged in Nanzō Yunko's mind. It must be said that the surrender of these places would indeed be a continuation of the past and a breakthrough of the future.
However, she didn't respond immediately. Instead, she looked at Xiao Ya. "I imagine that for Commander Bai to be so generous in giving up such a vast area, there must be some conditions. As for weapons, I doubt you'll ask for them. After all, judging by the current situation, we're the ones winning, so the idea of seizing weapons doesn't make sense."
"Ms. Yunzi is indeed an outstanding agent of the former Special High Technology Department. It is true that we do not need any supplies from your army this time. We just hope that your army can do something for us."
"I'm afraid the price of this matter is not small. However, I would like to hear what this price is. Perhaps we can measure whether this price is worth it."
"It should be worth it. Of course, this is just my personal opinion, but I think that with Miss Yunzi's intelligence and our actions during this period, you should be able to understand what our real plan is."
Nanzō Yunko picked up the teacup.
She took a sip of tea, then looked up at Xiao Ya, who sat across from her, elegantly lighting a cigarette. "I think I know what you're up to, but I want to know how you came up with this scheme to tie Okamura Yasuji to the chariot, so selfish and detrimental to his life. It must have been him who came up with it."
Xiao Ya paused for a moment as she picked up the cigarette, then smiled and said, "It seems Miss Yunzi knows what we want."
