Chapter 652: The Paris Peace Conference (1)

Not to mention anything else, just looking at the Elaline people who followed behind Yan Shao, the officials of the various countries who came to greet him already showed expressions of envy, jealousy and hatred. After all, these four people all have the color of the city, especially Eleno and Katerina, who are very standard Western beauties.

Such a woman, it is already a dream for ordinary people to get one, not to mention that Yan Shao is followed by four―――――― fortunately, Fumiko's age is still too young, and her existence is not a secret, I am afraid that she will also be counted as Yan Shao's woman.

However, despite their envy, jealousy and hatred in their hearts, on the surface they were still very polite.

"Mr. President, several ladies..."

Looking at Yan Shao and Elaline who got off the train, the representative of the French government who came to greet him said with a smile on his face.

"Hello..."Although it was not clear who the big nose standing in front of him was, Yan Shao still shook his hand with a smile.

Although Yan Shao and Eleno came to Paris back then, he didn't have a house in Paris―――――― the house in Paris was too expensive, although Yan Shao had a small amount of savings at that time, but it was always unrealistic to throw money here, not to mention that this money Yan Shao was also useful.

However, there is no need for Yan Shao to find a house to live in by himself at the moment, because he only needs to live in the legation in Paris. In fact, as the most important country in the world, the legation in France, although it cannot be said to be high-sounding, is relatively good.

So after greeting those who greeted him, Yan Shao and his entourage soon left the train station, and then headed in the direction of the legation.

Along the way, the minister to France sat opposite Yan Shao. Explain to him the current situation in Paris.

"Now the representatives of the countries have arrived, and President Wilson of the United States arrived in Paris more than a week ago..."

"So, I'm missing one now?"

"You are the last of the major nations to arrive," replied the Minister to France. But no one should care about that, after all, your distance is also the farthest of all the metas. Second only to Japan, but Japan is not their minister, but the envoy sent by the minister..."

"The envoy..."Hearing what the envoy said, Yan Shao nodded slightly, and then spoke to him. You have to make some preparations, and we are planning to discuss it with the other major members of the Entente. Raise the diplomatic level, and it may not be long before you become an ambassador..."

"Really?!" Although he had known that this matter would happen sooner or later, after hearing Yan Shao's personal admitation, the minister still looked a little surprised.

This is also something that cannot be helped, even though the whole country is asked by the minister, and it is not necessarily who is superior to each other. But. In a place like Paris, there are all some ambassadors around, and he is a minister, which always makes people feel a little uncomfortable, so now when he hears Yan Shao say this, he will naturally be a little happy.

On the other side, Yan Shao also smiled slightly.

Raise diplomatic level. This matter has been delayed for a long time, and it should have been handled a long time ago, but who told Yan Shao to suddenly promote the westward expansion strategy, and the result was that this matter was delayed, and it was only now that there were some eyebrows.

――――――――――――――――――――

Looking at the other party's somewhat happy expression, Yan Shao didn't care much, in his opinion, these are all imaginary, only strength is the most real.

If you have the strength, it's easy to say anything, and the same is true for turning it over.

China today. Even if the diplomatic hierarchy with other countries is at the level of ministers, who else dares to look at China? On the other hand, if you are just a very ordinary small country, then what is the use of even if you are at the ambassadorial level, you should be despised or will be despised by it. So the most important thing in this world is strength...

And what really cared about him was nothing else, but the Japanese...

According to the information obtained by the Special Affairs Bureau, after the Battle of Shandong, especially after China played a brilliant role on the Western Front, Japan, Britain, and the United States, although they were a little unhappy because of the issue of sending troops to the European War, were still in fact still disconnected in private, and many people in Britain and the United States believed that Japan should be given a certain amount of support in order to ensure the balance between China and Japan, that is, the Far East, and to ensure the interests of the great powers in Asia.

It's just that at that time, Japan and the foreign powers were making a lot of trouble about sending troops, so this is just some people's statement. As for France? Although France has a French Indochina in Asia, it is only here, and France's most critical colony is North Africa, Vietnam is important to France, but it is not particularly important, coupled with the friendly relations between China and France, so that each other has a good feeling among the people, this series of reasons, so that France is not particularly worried.

But this changed after China began to implement its westward expansion strategy...

With China's direct annexation of the whole of Siberia and Kazakhstan, the great powers suddenly felt very much in danger, after all, since China dared to annex Russian territory, it is difficult to say whether they will annex the colonies of the following powers in Southeast Asia in the future...

You must know that because of the European war, the great powers have suffered heavy losses, and China, although there are some losses, but the local land has not been directly hit, and compared with the losses, China has actually gained more things.

If China really makes a move, with the only remaining strength of Britain and France, they may not be able to resist China, as for the United States...

The United States still has a strong sense of isolation, and the United States officially entered the war under the pretext of a cruise ship and the telegram from Mexico, and if China does not threaten the American colonies in Asia, with a strong anti-war sentiment in the United States, I am afraid that the United States may not be able to send troops to help...

Therefore, even for other reasons, Britain and the United States and other countries can only find a way to contain China, and this method is to create an opponent for China...

As for the opponent, of course it's Japan...

Japan and the Great Powers were originally disconnected, but now with Russia as a catalyst, they have become even more closely in contact with each other, according to the information obtained by the Special Affairs Bureau. Countries such as Britain and the United States have even begun to discuss a series of support issues with Japan...

This includes both military and economic ones.

And that's exactly what Japan needs...

In fact, even the Japanese government is under great pressure from China. As I once said, although Japan also reaped a lot of benefits from this war. But compared with China, the gap is still too big, such as the 6th Army, and the gap between the forces of each other has reached as much as four times...

If it is said that before the Shandong Campaign, Japan dared to say how many soldiers a soldier toss, and during the War of Resistance Against Japan, Japan dared to say how many soldiers a Japanese soldier toss. Now even the most arrogant Japanese dare to speak only one-on-one ...

Therefore, Japan's cooperation with the great powers can be described as a hit and miss...

And this is also Yan Shao's biggest headache, because Yan Shao knows the characteristics of Japan very well, if you don't hurt him. He will never give in. In other words, if you want to tame a country like Japan, you have to beat him up first...

――――――――――――――――――――

In fact, Yan Shao has always had a strategy in his heart, that is, the so-called [Greater Far East Co-prosperity].

In fact, this plan is no different from Japan's [Greater East Asia Co-prosperity], which is to unite all the yellow countries and use them to fight against the white countries. If I had to say that there was a difference. Then it is in this strategy that it is China, not Japan, that dominates...

The reason why Yan Shao would consider such a plan is to look at the map of this era. Because in Southeast Asia, the yellow countries that still maintain their independence are now only three countries: China, Japan and Thailand, of which Thailand is still semi-colonial, and the reason why it will be left behind is only because Britain and France need to leave a buffer zone between their colonies.

In consideration of the Latin American group of people, although the orthodox view is. Europe and North America are the West, and of course, there is Australia, but in terms of race, there is no doubt about it. Whether it's the people in Latin America, or the Middle East, or even those in India, they can be called white.

In such a situation, the yellow race is already considered to be at a comprehensive disadvantage...

So, the only way to change this situation is to unite all the forces that can unite.

From a certain point of view, Japan's co-prosperity in Greater East Asia was correct, but the most crucial issue here is who co-prospered with whom, and if it is said that Japan co-prospered with China, it is bound to be opposed, not to mention that Japan has always had wolf ambitions for China, and has committed an unknown number of sins in China.

In fact, the reason why the Chinese people opposed it was probably also this reason, after all, at that time, Japan was not entering China at all, nor was it liberation, but aggression, it was a naked invasion of "chiluo", and the murders it committed in China were even more innumerable...

But on the other hand, if it is China's co-prosperity, what if Japan has other yellow countries?

Yan Shao remembers one thing, that is, during World War II, although China put up a stern resistance to Japan, in Southeast Asia and some other regions, the local people welcomed the arrival of the Japanese...

Because what Japan gave them at that time was not aggression like aggression against China, but indeed liberation, liberation from the hands of the white race...

What China intends to do right now is somewhat similar to this...

――――――――――――――――――――

Yan Shao's idea was simple, that is, to liberate all the yellow countries that were enslaved by whites. At the same time, it is not enough for China to assist these countries in their confrontation with the Western powers, after all, there are not only powerful countries like the United States, Britain, France, Germany, and Russia, but also relatively poor countries like Brazil and Argentina.

After the annexation of Siberia and Central Asia, China has certainly become one of the world's largest countries, but its territory is sometimes not necessarily indicative of power. If this is the case, then China will not be able to be taken care of by so many small countries, one of which is Japan...

During the Anti-Japanese War, even if you count Korea and Taiwan, Japan's territory was much smaller than China's...

Therefore, Yan Shao needs some friends, at least some powerful partners.

Among them, Thailand is naturally counted as one. After all, in this era, Thailand is more or less powerful, and even in later generations, Thailand can be regarded as barely having some strength. But in addition to this, Japan is also a small partner that Yan Shao needs.

After all, apart from China, the most powerful is Japan.

Even in the Hereafter. Japan is also a very powerful country, although nominally the country no longer has an army, but in fact its military power can even be among the top five in the world, plus the third economic power in the world...

If there is such a small partner, coupled with China's own strength, it is not impossible to confront the West. Nature. There are also North Korea, Thailand and a series of other small partners.

In addition to these countries, there are also countries such as India that are also within Yan Shao's [Greater Far East Co-Prosperity] strategy, and even if it is carried out smoothly, the name can be changed to [Greater Asia Co-prosperity] or something...

Spread all over Asia as a way to fight whites...

But before that, the first thing that needs to be done is Japan. Originally, Yan Shao planned to cultivate a pro-China faction in Japan. In this way, the two countries may be able to solve the problems of the Far East more easily―――――― and of course China must occupy a dominant position in this cooperation.

And considering that in Japan in this era, there were many Miyazaki-like figures, especially after the Battle of Shandong and the Battle of Verdun and the Somme on the Western Front. Although there are many people in Japan who curse against China, there are also many people like Miyazaki.

Just like China's sense of crisis, facing the whole world is white. How could the Japanese, who already have a sense of crisis, not have a crisis at all...

But now...

"If the Japanese and Britain and the United States really unite, then it may not be so simple to deal with this country..."Thinking so, Yan Shao rubbed his temples with his hand. The weakness of the Japanese is in the economy, this era is different from later generations, there are not so many high-tech products, and the profits of high-tech products are usually very rich, but it is a pity that there is no in this era, even if there are some, they are mostly in the hands of the great powers, plus it is a colonial era. Many markets have already been carved up, and if this were not the case, Japan would not have taken the Chinese market so seriously, after all, it is one of the few markets that has not been carved up, and because of this. Japan's biggest weakness is its economy..."

"And Britain and the United States, especially the United States, their greatest strength is the economy, if the two sides unite, then Japan's economic weakness is equivalent to being compensated..."

"Having an economy is naturally equivalent to having a military, and after having a military, the character of the Japanese will undoubtedly become arrogant, and at this time, it will be even more difficult to support the pro-China faction in their country, and in the end, I am afraid that they will have to see the truth under their hands..."

Yan Shao is not afraid of this, after all, if you really want to do it, the most suitable time is World War II. Although it is not clear whether Hitler's boy died on the battlefield or not, he knows very well what his own task is, that is, to find a way to make this peace conference a humiliating agreement, but not to slap Germany to death...

In this way, even if Hitler died on the battlefield, he would not have to worry about the lack of a leading figure to step up and lead the Germans in World War II―――――― which, in a way, was just a twenty-year armistice, as Fuch said.

Since the end of the Paris Peace Conference, the matter has been settled, and even if Hitler is really dead, there will be another German who will step up and lead the others.

――――――――――――――――――――――

"And at that time, I just had to find a way to get the most out of it, just like now..."

"And by the time of World War II, the aviation industry was almost in full swing......... The bombing of Tokyo or something, as long as you think about it, you will feel very enjoyable..."Thinking like this, the corners of Yan Shao's mouth have already knocked slightly.

But just when he was thinking about it, the car suddenly stopped slowly, and then he heard the minister speak to him.

"President, the place has arrived..."

"It's already there?" Hearing his voice, Yan Shao came back to his senses, and through the car window, Yan Shao could see the legation in France outside...

"It's not bad to arrive...", Yan Shao had already pushed open the door and walked out of the car, and in the car behind, Elano and the others also walked out of the car.

It's just that when Yan Shao and the others were walking towards the room arranged for them by the staff of the legation, in another corner of Paris, several short and thin yellow people were discussing something, and they didn't know how long it took for someone to grit their teeth.

"Let's take a look at the attitude of the Americans, has US President George W. Bush put forward his Wilson Fourteen Points, and he should support us..."

"That's right!"

"yes!"

The man's words quickly caused a chorus...

Soon, everyone else in the room agreed, but just as everyone agreed, one of them was thinking about another country that they could rely on.

"I hope the Americans don't let us down, otherwise, we will have to go to the Chinese..."

With that in mind, the young man looked at the French flag hanging outside the window.

By the way, the name of this young man is Ho Chi Minh ...
