Chapter two hundred and ninety six determination

The reorganized diplomatic envoy from Japan once again submitted an interview request to the German government. Germany's Deputy Foreign Minister Ribbentrop came to the Paris Hotel with the interpretation documents and post-processing reports submitted by the Japanese envoy.∷∷, German military and political institutions are evacuating from this hotel. The hotel received compensation from the German army. Although it was not enough to make up for the losses caused by the suspension of business for several months, it was much better than not getting a dime in history.

Xu Jun was still staying in his exclusive office on the third floor. Yesterday, a luxurious promotion ceremony was held in the grand banquet hall of the Liz Hotel. Xu Jun personally awarded promotion documents and military ranks to these marshals and generals, and personally hung shiny medals on the chests of the officers. This was the best way for these generals who value tradition and honor. The generals and officers who attended the ceremony all praised the manners shown by the head of state at that time.

In order to avoid stimulating the self-esteem of the French people, the ceremony was not open to outsiders. All participants were insiders of the German army and all foreign media were not allowed to interview and visit. Originally, the army wanted to determine the venue of the ceremony in the harvest hall of the Palace of Versailles, but after thinking about it, Xu Junsi still denied this proposal. The French regarded Versailles as a national pride and a symbol of the country. William I was crowned at the Mirror Hall of Versailles for almost half a century. The French people regarded it as a great humiliation of the French nation and kept it in mind. When we are currently advocating the reconciliation between the two countries, we should not be fussy for some face vanity.

At present, the speed of national reconciliation between Germany and France has broken many experts' glasses. Even Betton did not expect the process to be so smooth. The French people expressed warm approval and welcome to the olive branch extended by Germany. Now, German officers and soldiers no longer feel the hatred gazes of the people around them when walking on the streets of France. When entering and leaving various consumption places, they will receive the same service as the French. No one spits into the coffee they want and sprinkle dust into their soup. Xu Jun is very pleased with this good trend at present. Reconciliation with the French is the most important step in his European strategy. Whether this step can be successful will directly affect the introduction of a series of policies and the formulation of development plans. The alliance between the two European powers will become the firm cornerstone of the new European order conceived by Xu Jun.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to Xu Jun pay attention to the relationship between Germany and France. This conflict in French Indochina gave Xu Jun a great opportunity to intuitively show the French people the German government's friendship and the importance of the alliance. Germany will not hesitate to give all the support needed by its allies.

"This thing is a whole bunch of worthless empty words. What we need is their most sincere apology and compensation that satisfies us. We are not blackmailers and will not ask them to pay more than the actual loss value. Germany has shown enough restraint and kindness. They should respond seriously to our kindness, but what are these? Want to humiliate the Third Reich? You should not accept this piece of garbage at all. You should throw this thing directly on the face of Oosima (Big Island)." Xu Jun closed the documents in front of him and took Ribintrov's chest. The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs looked at the stack of documents scattered on the carpet under his feet.

"Give this thing back to the Japanese and tell them that our request was well written in the protest letter, and other issues were not within the scope of the negotiations. They had no third option for Germany's request." Xu Jun stood up and turned to Ribbintrov, walked to Ribbentrop, reached out and patted the deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the shoulder.

"I see your work achievements during this period, and I can say that I am very satisfied with it. It seems that the lessons before have been transformed. I also mentioned your current performance in my letter to Minister Niulet, telling him that he should look at you with admiration. But this time, Joachim, you need to learn how to judge and think." After saying that, Xu Jun shook his head, with an angry and disappointed expression on his face.

"I'm very sorry, my head of state." The voices of the Deputy Foreign Minister who was moved by Xu Jun's words began to tremble.

"I don't need you to apologize to me. I just need to see the final result. Mr. Ribbin Trov, now pick up the documents on the ground." Xu Jun patted the former wine merchant's arm again. He turned back to his desk and sat down.

"There are the compensation conditions determined after discussing with President Betton. In the document, I have granted you the full right to conduct diplomatic negotiations on behalf of the German government. You should pay attention to the requirements marked by me in the article. This is our last bottom line and there is absolutely no change." Xu Jun took out a folder from the drawer of the desk. The cover was covered with a dazzling top-secret document seal.

"As for the order, my head of state." Ribintrop couldn't help but be overjoyed. After a few months, he was once again granted full diplomatic power by the head of state. He regarded this as a signal to regain Xu Jun's respect. Ribintrov saw the hope of returning to the throne of Foreign Minister. After all, Niulet is old and will sooner or later retire from his diplomatic position.

"As for their request for a visit, let's talk about it after the negotiation results come out. I don't want to see them yet." Xu Jun took out a report from the file box next to his desk, and then made a gesture to Ribbin Trov.

"I understand, my head, hey! Reinhart!" Ribbintrov raised his chest and sucked his stomach and raised his hand, then turned around and left the office with two documents.

"My head of state, Ribbin Trov, has been very dedicated during this period. As far as I know, he has been traveling between Berlin and European countries to complete your task." Weirler walked to Xu Jun's desk and put a cup of green tea on the table.

"Do you think I'm too harsh on him?" Xu Jun picked up the green tea, lowered his head and sniffed the tea fragrance gently.

"Okay, maybe there's a little bit. This is a slippery guy. He has a strong social ability, but his mind is not smart enough. He also has ambitions that exceed his personal ability. So at some point he has to put some pressure on his mind to think about things."

"I understand, my head of state, I am ashamed to not see your intention." Weirler owed his body after saying that.

"You're doing well, Weiller, I need someone to remind me of these details." Xu Jun took a sip of green tea, then picked up a pen from the pen holder in front of the table, and signed his name at the signature of the report.

"My Head, please forgive my curiosity. What did the Japanese reply say?" Weirle asked respectfully. He had not read the document and did not know why Xu Jun was furious.

"They explained the conflict, and they confirmed that it was a man-made accident. Because the army battalion commander misunderstood the order from his superiors, he made a wrong decision. They had already taken the responsible officer to punish him severely." Xu Jun replied while reading another report.

"They want to shirk responsibility?"

"That's not. They admitted that all the responsibility for the incident was on the Japanese side and were willing to apologize to the German and French governments for this matter." Xu Jun put down the document and looked at Weiller and said.

"They want to settle this matter secretly and do not want to make it public in the world. This is something I cannot accept. What's even more outrageous is that they want to bribe us with money and ask us to put pressure on France and no longer continue to investigate the incident. At the same time, they still miss the issue of the northern border of French Indochina, and ask me to support their passage and garrison in northern French Indochina, and ask France to cut off all the transportation and connections between French Indochina and China. They think they are, but they actually think that Germany will act according to their wishes." Xu Jun sneered and picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"It sounds a bit unreasonable, but my head of state, I believe that Ribbintrov will put them in the right place." Weirle comforted with a smile.

"They want to find out where our bottom line is. Oosima is a German master. He knows our way of thinking very well. He will not make such low-level mistakes. When dealing with the Japanese, you must be tough enough. If you cannot eliminate the delusions of these people at once and make them feel that they have an opportunity, they will gain a better position and put forward various unrealistic requirements. They have been doing this for decades. We must take this opportunity to draw a red line for them to ensure that they will not disturb our deployment and strategy in a short period of time. I think these Japanese people will soon understand that no tricks in front of us are useful, and they must come up with practical benefits to get Germany's tolerance." After Xu Jun said that, he gently placed the teacup on his desk.
