In order to avoid revealing his identity, Pan Yunsheng took the [Führer's Office] as a "state councilor. Starting

Zhao Rundong not only informed Pang Xinglong, but also Peng Maobang, Gu Weimin and Huang Guowei. When Pan Yunsheng and Nguyen Luong Ngoc arrived, Zhao Rundong had already asked his secretary to prepare a pot of black tea and a few pastries with Vietnamese characteristics.

The meeting began in a less friendly atmosphere.

To Pan Yunsheng's surprise, Nguyen Luong Ngoc first proposed that the Republic of China sent special forces to take him away from Vietnam, which constituted the act of "kidnapping the leaders of other countries" and was the most serious war crime, and demanded that the Republic give a reasonable explanation for this and apologize to Vietnam.

Peng Mau-bang did not give the "arrogant" Vietnamese prime minister a good face.

Pang Xinglong, Gu Weimin and Huang Guowei did not "grab white", leaving the problem to Zhao Rundong.

As a "state councilor," Pan Yunsheng is not good at expressing any "lofty views."

After pondering for a while, Zhao Rundong said: "We can completely understand the anger of Your Excellency the Prime Minister, and we also ask Your Excellency to understand the situation at that time. I believe that Commissioner Pan has already explained the relevant situation to you. If we don't take the opportunity to make a decision, I'm afraid we won't be sitting together about the future of your country. ”

Zhao Rundong's remarks were neither soft nor hard, which not only showed the position of the republic, but also showed that the republic's grasp of "Vietnam's future" gave Nguyen Luong Ngoc a disadvantage.

Vietnam's prime minister's face was very ugly, and he was obviously a little angry at Zhao Rundong's answer.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister. One way or another. The fate of the 80 million Vietnamese people is in your hands. "Pang Xinglong stepped forward to resolve the deadlock." This war. Neither the land we want to see. It's not the place you want to see. End the war. It is our goal to develop bilateral relations of 'friendly coexistence'. It is also your land's purpose. For the past seven years. Your Excellency has made a significant contribution to bilateral friendship. Great efforts have been made for the development of Vietnam. The friendship between China and Vietnam goes back to ancient times. It has been a friendly neighbour for thousands of years. Although there have been some less pleasant futures. But we believe. As long as we both work together. Not only can we resolve differences and contradictions as soon as possible. It can also create a better future for the people of both countries. ”

Heard Pang Xinglong's words. Ruan Liangyudi's expression relaxed a little.

"So to speak. Your country also wants to end the war as soon as possible? ”

Pang Xinglong nodded. Leave the words to Zhao Rundong.

"We have always been peace-loving. We have also been working for peace. "Zhao Rundong's attitude has also changed." All the time. We are all trying to resolve the dispute between the two countries through peaceful means. You should know. The 'Laos War' was not a local war initiated by our country. Anyway. The war goes on. The greatest victims are the 80 million Vietnamese people. And then there are the 1.4 billion citizens of the republic. We invite you to come. It is to seek a peaceful solution to the conflict between the two countries. Saving 80 million Vietnamese people from the flames of war. Your Excellency is willing to sit down and negotiate with us. It also shows that Your Excellency is a good Prime Minister who truly loves the motherland. He is a good leader who is willing to give his life to his fellow citizens. Although the war has had a negative impact on our bilateral relations. But I believe. As long as we work together. can resolve differences and contradictions. Rebuild a new future of common prosperity, common development and common progress. Write a new chapter in China-Vietnam exchanges. ”

Ruan Liangyu smiled faintly and heard the meaning of Zhao Rundong's words.

The key is those "commons". Although Zhao Rundong did not say it explicitly, according to Zhao Rundong's meaning, the "price" of the republic's support for Nguyen Luong Ngoc's return to the country is Vietnam's "submission" to the republic and the establishment of an "alliance" between China and Laos. On this basis, Vietnam must recognize the "return" of the Spratly islands and territorial waters in the South China Sea, abandon its ambition to dominate Southeast Asia, and become a member of the "alliance system" with China at its core.

Nguyen Luong Ngoc is not a stupid person, since Zhao Rundong has made a request, he will naturally give Vietnam great help.

Nguyen Luong Ngoc has always been in favor of "Vietnam's domination of Southeast Asia." Although Vietnam has the second-largest population in Southeast Asia, it simply does not have the basic strength to become a regional power. Vietnam is a small country in the region in terms of land area, resources, economy, science and technology, culture, diplomacy, etc.

What led Vietnam astray was precisely the "hegemonic mentality".

Since the war in the 60s and 70s of the last century, Vietnam has been flaunting its military might with "defeating the French and American invaders", and once claimed to be the "third largest military power in the world", but only a few years later it was "taught a lesson" by China and reduced to one of the poorest countries in the world.

After the end of the Cold War, Vietnam embarked on the path of "reform and opening up".

With the rapid development of the economy, the "hegemonic mentality" has swelled again. Instead of benefiting from anything, the 80,000 Vietnamese people were pushed into the abyss of war.

After pondering for a long time, Ruan Liangyu let out a long sigh and said, "Your Excellency, I would like to know the practical assistance that your country can provide. ”

Zhao Rundong nodded and looked at Peng Maobang first.

"First of all, we will send troops to occupy Hanoi." "Subsequently, we will escort the prime minister back to Hanoi to provide full protection for the prime minister and assist the prime minister in suppressing the rebels." If necessary, we will also send troops to occupy it

Other large and medium-sized cities, including Chi Minh City, will pacify Vietnam as quickly as possible+ During this period, we will eradicate political opponents including Vu Sam Minh and Le Minh Giet for the Prime Minister. ”

Ruan Liangyu's brows jumped a few times and said, "How to ensure that the new regime can be supported by the people?" ”

Peng Maobang didn't speak again, but turned his gaze to Pang Xinglong.

"After the new government is formed, we will provide your country with economic and other assistance to help your country rebuild after the war." Pang Xinglong paused a little and said, "We can also use government guarantees to attract investment for your country, help your country develop its economy, solve the problem of unemployment, and improve people's living standards." Your Excellency the Prime Minister is well versed in the economy, has outstanding talents in national construction, is well aware of China's strength, and is also aware of the pulling effect of China's ongoing industrial restructuring on the economies of neighboring countries. As long as we work together sincerely, I am confident that within five to 10 years, your country will achieve remarkable achievements and your people will reap great benefits from them. ”

Ruan Liangyu nodded, as if he felt that Pang Xinglong's answer was still not comprehensive enough.

Zhao Rundong coughed dryly twice and looked at Gu Weimin, who was sitting next to Pang Xinglong.

"In addition to economic assistance, we can also provide your country with appropriate military assistance." Gu Weimin is much more than Peng Maobang, "After Your Excellency forms a government, we will be responsible for forming a government army with a size of 100,000 to 150,000 for Your Excellency, providing training and necessary weapons and equipment to help Your Excellency consolidate your power." After your regime is stabilized, we can also sign the necessary treaties with your country, and even provide your country with a national defense guarantee. ”

Ruan Liangyu smiled faintly, it seemed that Gu Weimin didn't get to the point.

"Actually, you don't have to worry about anything at all." Zhao Rundong took a deep breath and said, "As long as your country returns to normal, we will not interfere in your internal affairs." If you have any concerns, we can sign the agreement. After the completion of combat operations in your country, our troops will be withdrawn from your country in accordance with the relevant agreements. In terms of security guarantees, we also fully respect your country's views and will not force your country to sign any treaty that runs counter to the interests of the country and the nation.

In any case, we sincerely make friends with your Excellency and sincerely cooperate and communicate with your country. ”

Hearing this, Ruan Liangyu said: "I understand what His Excellency the Führer meant, but there is no point in just talking. ”

"Of course," Zhao Rundong glanced at Huang Guowei, and after the foreign minister handed over the documents brought to Nguyen Liangyu, he said, "This is a cooperation agreement that we have drafted, and you can discuss it with your country's embassy personnel in our country, or anyone else." The most important thing at present is to put an end to the turmoil in your country, to suppress both sides of the civil war, to help your Excellency return to Hanoi to establish a new government, and to free your people from the sea of suffering. ”

Nguyen Luong Ngoc quickly glanced at the document directory and said, "If I can, I would like to return to Hanoi with the first army." ”

"No problem at all." Zhao Rundong smiled and said, "It's just that, for the sake of Your Excellency's safety, we hope that Your Excellency can stay in Beijing for a few more days." We will keep you informed of the progress of the campaign as soon as the combat operation begins. When the time comes, I will arrange for senior officials to accompany you back to Hanoi. ”

Ruan Liangyu nodded and said, "So, do you need me to sign this agreement as soon as possible?" ”

Zhao Rundong did not avoid this question, and nodded to indicate that this was exactly the case.

"I would like to return to the embassy and discuss with the relevant people before making a decision."

For this small request, Zhao Rundong naturally would not refuse. After asking Pang Xinglong and Huang Guowei to accompany Nguyen Liangyu to the Vietnamese Embassy, Zhao Rundong deployed tasks for Peng Maobang and Gu Weimin, and let Pan Yunsheng stay.

"It's hard, isn't it?"

Zhao Rundong shook his head with a smile. "As you said, Nguyen Liangyu is indeed a patriot who puts the interests of the country first in everything and will not make any concessions."

"Perhaps, we have to consider a different person."

"There's no need for that." Zhao Rundong handed a cigarette to Pan Yunsheng, "An independent Vietnam is not only not harmful to us, but also beneficial. Think about it, Vietnam has a population of 80 million, can we treat Vietnam with a policy towards Laos? With this burden on our backs, our development will be greatly affected. As long as Vietnam is willing to move forward on the path of peaceful development, as bilateral economic exchanges become more and more frequent, and Vietnam's economy is tied to us, can Vietnam still pose a threat to us? Besides, quelling the civil war in Vietnam is not a matter of time and a half, and even if Nguyen Luong Ngoc returns to Hanoi and establishes a new regime, he may not be able to control the entire territory of Vietnam. When the time comes, the war drags on, and Nguyen Luong Ngoc not only can't blame us, but also has to ask us for more assistance. On this basis, we are helping Vietnam to rebuild after the war, which is much more significant than entering Vietnam now. ”

"Looks like you've figured it all out."

Zhao Rundong smiled but did not speak.

Pan Yunsheng also secretly admired that from the beginning, Zhao Rundong had thought about what would happen decades later. As the head of state, Zhao Rundong's ability is not much worse than that of Ji Youguo. (To be continued)
