Volume 7 The Smoke of Gunfire on the Peninsula Chapter 32 Stabilizing North Korea
After serving as "policy advisers", Peng Maobang and Pan Yunsheng's attitude is different than before.
After listening to Wang Yuanqing, neither of them was in a hurry to speak.
In the past, there was no "title", and the two did not have to worry about bearing responsibility no matter what they said, but now they have a "title", and what they say is a policy recommendation for the reference of the deputy head of state, and they need to take responsibility.
It's just that the personalities of the two have not changed.
Seeing Peng Maobang's excited appearance, Pan Yunsheng spoke first and said, "It is indeed very tricky. Kim Cheol-nam felt the threat from the south and knew that without our support, North Korea would be quickly defeated and the 'Kim family' would be completely destroyed. No matter what the DPRK does, there is only one purpose, to drag us into the water. β
Wang Yuanqing nodded and glanced at Peng Maobang.
"If you want to cross the river, how can you not get your feet wet?" Peng Maobang said with a serious expression, "We have long been ready to participate in the war, let alone cooperate with the North Korean army, even if we have to fight alone, we can't avoid it." β
"The question is ......" Pan Yunsheng smiled and didn't say the rest of the words.
"Last month, I went to Xiamen to meet Mr. Ji." Wang Yuanqing decided to convince Peng Maobang first, "put forward a very bold idea, which was supported by Ji Lao." β
Pan Yunsheng frowned slightly, and guessed what Wang Yuanqing meant.
"What thoughts?" Peng Maobang asked very dryly. Didn't bother to think about it.
"Peaceful reunification of the two sides of the strait."
Peng Maobang was stunned for a moment. Then he said, "You mean." Take this opportunity to complete the peaceful reunification of the two sides of the strait? β
Wang Yuanqing nodded. "While both the United States and Japan are focusing their strategic efforts on the Korean Peninsula," he said. Promote the peaceful reunification of the two sides of the strait. Although it is unlikely that peaceful reunification will be achieved in such a short period of time. However, it is very promising to take this opportunity to promote the process of peaceful reunification between the two sides of the strait. It will enable the two sides to take a decisive step towards peaceful reunification. β
Peng Maobang hesitated. Didn't say anything. Even Ji Youguo thinks so. Definitely no problem.
"Yes, and I think it's a great opportunity."
"Here's the problem, Ji Lao specifically mentioned our actions on the Korean Peninsula."
"What does it have to do with our actions? I believe that the more beautifully we fight, the greater the results we will achieve, and the more we will be able to promote peaceful reunification. β
Pan Yunsheng glanced at Peng Maobang, and then laughed.
"Am I wrong?"
"Mr. Peng, you are right, but you must pay attention to ways and means." Wang Yuanqing sighed secretly and said, "Why does Ji Lao's status in the hearts of Taiwan compatriots far exceed that of other leaders?" Although the recovery of the Diaoyu Islands played a great role, Lao Zhao also recovered the Nansha Islands. The reason is very simple, Ji Lao pays attention to ways and means in everything he does. Just as President Peng said, the more beautifully we fight on the Korean battlefield, the more obvious the deterrent effect will be on the separatists on the island. The key issue is that the majority of Taiwan compatriots are neither separatists nor absolutely supportive of reunification. We cannot force the Taiwan compatriots to think and hold our views, but can only use other methods to convince the Taiwan compatriots that reunification can bring them greater benefits, will not destroy their current lives, and will not allow them to be bound and treated unequally. Treating more than 20 million compatriots is not treating other countries, and we cannot treat other countries in the same way. β
"To put it simply, the premise of peaceful reunification is to let the Taiwan compatriots 'return to their hearts.'" Pan Yunsheng summed up Wang Yuanqing's words.
Wang Yuanqing nodded and said: "Just as Lao Pan said, only with the heartfelt support of Taiwan compatriots can the peaceful reunification of the two sides of the strait be realized, and military threats can only have the opposite effect." Although we cannot let the United States, Japan, and South Korea dominate North Korea, we cannot let the Taiwan compatriots think that we will take military action to recover Taiwan when necessary. Ways and means are very important, and what will happen if we don't have enough reasons to brazenly send troops to help North Korea start a war? If nothing else, the Western news media will certainly not let us go. Before the war began, we lost the propaganda war. β
Peng Maobang sighed and didn't say anything more.
"Xiao Wang is right, news and propaganda is one of the main battlefields that we must attach great importance to." Pan Yunsheng pondered for a while and said, "The question now is how we should respond to North Korea's request. β
"That's why I asked you to come." Wang Yuanqing picked up the cigarette and took the opportunity to think about it. Under normal circumstances, when Peng Maobang and Pan Yunsheng are present, Wang Yuanqing will try to restrain the urge to smoke. "North Korea has a very clear attitude that it will take the initiative to attack as long as we provide support and even make a guarantee that we will send troops as soon as the war breaks out. The question should be looked at the other way around, what will North Korea do if we don't make commitments? β
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided."
Pan Yunsheng glanced at Peng Maobang, shook his head with a smile, and said to Wang Yuanqing: "Jin Zhenan was forced into a desperate situation, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to show favor to us at this time. What you said is indeed the key issue, and if we were indifferent, would Kim Chol-nam respond to the threat in any other way? β
"The question is, does he have any other choice?"
Wang Yuanqing also shook his head with a smile. "War will definitely break out, and Kim Chol-nam's only option is to take the initiative to attack. If we don't take a stand, the North Korean army will die
Forcing the ROK army to launch a counterattack in one direction is not sufficient to create a geographical reason for us to participate in the war, and if we enter the war, we will inevitably be criticized. If we take a stand, Kim Chol-nam will still take the initiative to provoke a war. The reason is very simple, Kim Cheol-nam is not only on guard against the enemy in the south, but also on guard, and has always been worried that we will take the opportunity to overthrow the 'Kim family' by participating in the battlefield. North Korea will not ask us to send ground troops, but will provide air support and cover. Kim Chol-nam's purpose is clear: to defeat the US-South Korean coalition with our strength, force Yoo Jong-chun to abandon the idea of going north, and maintain the status quo on the Korean Peninsula. β
"The results could be very different."
Wang Yuanqing let out a sigh and said: "The problem is here, the South Korean and US coalition forces are ready for war, and even if North Korea takes the initiative to attack, it will still be defeated." β
Pan Yunsheng pondered for a while and said, "In this case, I think it is best to stabilize North Korea." β
"How stable?" Wang Yuanqing raised the most critical question.
Pan Yunsheng glanced at the cigarette on the table, was late, took two sips of the teacup, and said: "This balance is difficult to grasp, and whether you express your position or not may make Jin Zhenan choose an extreme way and put us in a dilemma." If you can't negotiate with North Korea on big issues, I think it's better to manipulate small issues. β
Wang Yuanqing extinguished the cigarette and waited for Pan Yunsheng to continue.
"We can give North Korea some support, or give a little hint that North Korea will provide support if necessary." Pan Yunsheng paused for a while and said, "At this point, the DPRK will take the initiative to establish a joint command center or similar military command structure with our side." β
"You mean, manipulating this?"
Pan Yunsheng nodded and said: "At present, it seems that the South Korean and American coalition forces will start a war in a few days, as long as we can stabilize North Korea for a few days and let the South Korean and American coalition forces attack first, we will be able to obtain sufficient reasons to participate in the war." β
"The problem is that there's a good chance that Kim Cheol-nam will take our hints as a signal to start a war."
"Then it's up to you to deal with it." Pan Yunsheng smiled and said, "It's best for you to come forward in person, and when Cui Zhicheng comes, first find out what North Korea thinks, and then hint that North Korea should understand that if a joint command mechanism cannot be established, our army will not take the initiative to participate in the war." If you do something about intelligence, you will make North Korea think that the war will not break out immediately, and it is very likely that it will be delayed until the end of the month or early next year, so that Kim Chol-nam will give up the idea of starting a war immediately. β
Wang Yuanqing pondered for a while and nodded slightly.
"Wait a minute, I'll go to the Military Intelligence Bureau and ask Li Cunxun about the situation."
"It's okay, I'll make arrangements as soon as possible, and I hope that the North Korean foreign minister is not a fool without brains."
"Also, remember to discuss it with Lao Zhao."
Wang Yuanqing nodded and said, "I'll call Lao Zhao immediately and ask for his opinion." β
"I haven't been back to the General Staff for a long time." Peng Maobang sighed, "I don't know what Xiang Linghui has made the General Staff Headquarters, just take the time to go back and take a look." β
Seeing Peng Maobang's appearance, Wang Yuanqing and Pan Yunsheng both laughed.
After the two left, Wang Yuanqing called Zhao Rundong and asked for the FΓΌhrer's opinion. As always, Zhao Rundong let Wang Yuanqing take full control.
At noon on December 9, Li Cunxun reported the situation to Wang Yuanqing.
Because North Korea has been wary of the "peaceful evolution" of the republic, it is not realistic for the military intelligence agency or the republic's intelligence agencies to provide intelligence to the DPRK. According to Lee's arrangement, the military intelligence bureau used a North Korean spy in its possession to leak several important pieces of information to the North Korean intelligence agency in order to influence the decision-making of the North Korean leadership. However, Li Cunxun does not dare to guarantee that this will have much effect, because most of the North Korean spies buried in the Republic have either been rebelled or cleaned up by the Republic's intelligence and security agencies, and the rest are some "small spies" with ordinary ability and little value, who have failed to penetrate the key departments of the Republic.
Whether it has an effect or not, Wang Yuanqing has no other choice.
In Wang Yuanqing's words to Li Cunxun, we can only hope that North Korean intelligence officers will make major gains in Japan and South Korea, so that Kim Chol-nam will "change his mind."
Subsequently, Xiang Linghui also made a report to Wang Yuanqing.
In the light of the new situation, the General Staff drew up a provisional plan. Wang Yuanqing did not ask in detail, because the project was completed under the leadership of Peng Maobang. Even if Wang Yuanqing doesn't believe in the ability of Xiang Linghui and Pei Chengyi, he will not cherish Peng Maobang's ability.
In the evening of the same day, Choe Zhicheng boarded a special diplomatic plane of the Republic of China and followed the Ambassador of the Republic to the DPRK to Beijing.
After meeting with Huang Guowei, Cui Zhicheng was invited to the official residence of the deputy head of state.
Wang Yuanqing did not put Gu Weimin aside, in any case, the work of the State Department had a great impact on the combat operations of the Republican ** team.
Damn it**
During the closure period, every half an hour, the flickering brothers went crazy together, so that everyone was happy!
