"Dear Madame Mayor, we can't accept your accusations!" Perry's face flushed: "We are just doing business, and we are not obviously taking sides over the other, let alone directly participating in the war. It doesn't make sense for you to hold us as prisoners of war. ”

Zhang Yushu smiled and said: "If we can talk openly and honestly about future cooperation, we may not be able to become business friends." However, if the two of you must stick to the original wrong view, then I am sorry. You support our enemies, our enemies. ”

"The Korean People's Liberation Army and the anti-Japanese democratic government of the DPRK have always been peace-loving. However, in the face of the enemy who invaded us, we will definitely not be relentless. Of course, the two of them are just one chargé d'affaires, and it is likely that they will not be able to call the shots completely. But it doesn't matter, we can accept the full content of your transaction with the Japanese monkey. ”

"I still have a lot of things to attend to, so I can't be here with you. On specific issues of commercial and trade cooperation, you and my chief of the General Staff, Mr. Lu Ming, have had good consultations, and I hope that we can have a good start of cooperation between the two sides. Farewell and good luck! ”

Watching Zhang Yushu's graceful figure slowly disappear, Tang Nan said to Lu Ming: "Mr. Lu Ming, your beautiful mayor has such a murderous aura!" ”

"I don't feel that way." Lu Ming shook his head: "Mayor Zhang is a very kind woman, and she is the most reluctant to see people suffering in the world. The people like her and love her, and that comes from the heart. Okay, so let's talk about how to deal with specific issues. ”

"In the face of the ferocious Japanese devils, we, the Korean People's Liberation Army, fought alone. Lack of food, ammunition, fuel. Of course, our Korean Peninsula is surrounded by water on three sides, and what we lack most is large ships. Because of the oppression and exploitation of the Japanese devils, our industrial capacity and scientific and technological level are very backward. ”

"We are a just war against aggression and hope to have the support of a righteous force. We can provide all the items you need, such as mink and ginseng, and they are definitely better than those of the Japanese devils. Korean ginseng is also the best in the world, don't you want to do this business? ”

"Mr. Lu Ming, your original mayor has already said what he meant." Perry shook his head and said, "You proposed that you need the most advanced battleships, and to be honest, we didn't know that the government was making this kind of weapon, so we couldn't promise you." ”

Lu Ming also shook his head: "Whether the American people know it or not, but the U.S. government and military are building North Carolina-class battleships, and the outfitting stage has come to an end, which is absolutely true." Although our Korean People's Liberation Army (PLA) is closed to information, we are very clear about your country's every move. ”

"We are reasonable, we will not deliberately make problems, and we will not embarrass you. North Carolina-class battleships, you can go back and figure it out slowly, and we'll give you four years to plan this matter, as long as it's delivered by 1942. ”

"We know that you do business all over the world and know a lot of friends from all walks of life. So, I'd like to ask you for a favor. Hungary received a license for the production of the M36 40-mm Bofors anti-aircraft gun, and it was a product exclusively for external sales, and the British Empire purchased their products, didn't it? ”

"This kind of thing doesn't require you to go back to the government and the military, just a telegram can solve the problem. We don't need much, 72 anti-aircraft guns, 72 tractors and 250,000 rounds of shells (50% for high-explosive and armor-piercing shells), just enough to be transported by ship. What a simple thing, isn't it? ”

In addition, Hazemeyer, a subsidiary of the German Siemens company in the Netherlands, has developed an Mk/IV twin-mounted Bofors M32 shipborne anti-aircraft gun with its own fire control system. You can contact your friends and ask them to change to the M36 type and produce 120 units for us, and 600,000 rounds of artillery shells will be shipped together. ”

"Of course, we lack everything, really, we have nothing, and the limited weapons are captured from the Japanese devils. So we need aviation radio stations, anti-aircraft searchlights, communications radars, sonar detection, ocean rangefinders, 250 kilowatt steam turbines, fire control radars SCR-584 gun sighting systems. ”

"It's not a very difficult thing, you guys are all over the United States. Even if there is no stock, according to your American level of technology, it will be able to produce it quickly, right? ”

"Of course, we don't want to interrupt your way to making money. From now on, if you send 100,000 tons of crude oil to the Japanese devils, you will sell us 20,000 tons of crude oil at will. ”

"If you give the Japanese devils 50,000 tons of rubber, you will sell us 10,000 tires. When you transport scrap steel to the Japanese devils, you will get us 105mm, 150mm, 240mm, and 410mm barrels by the way, and by the way, you will come with a production line for shells. You see, isn't it simple? ”

"You can rest assured, whatever price the little Japanese devil makes, we will raise it by 1%, and all of it will be settled with gold bars. Even if we don't have gold bars, we will ask Japanese devils to borrow them. Absolutely pay with one hand and deliver with one hand. Fair trade, no bullying. ”

"As for your freighter, we were going to confiscate it and convert it into a normal armed transport ship. But now we are talking about cooperation, isn't it, so we still maintain the original price and rent it for a period of time. It will be managed properly, used with care, and we will pay the rent anyway. ”

"When it comes to your crew, that's even more to worry about. They are all experienced and good sailors, and they will certainly not be left hungry and cold, and there are also higher salaries. Our anti-Japanese democratic government has always been a man of his word, and he will never give you a false idea. ”

"We are armed against the invaders and are engaged in the most just war, so we hope to get the understanding and sympathy of a righteous person. We don't have anything, so we don't care about our own lives, and we don't worry about any death threats. We are not afraid of the little Japanese devils armed to the teeth, you say, what else will we be afraid of? ”

According to the "negotiation strategy" explained by Bai Shujie last night, uh, it should be early this morning, Lu Ming crackled and talked non-stop as soon as he opened his mouth, not letting Perry and Tang Nan have room to speak at all.

The rhetoric is unceremonious, and it is simply the most explicit "Enwei is used together, soft and hard." At the end, a few words of "death threats" were also emphasized.

Although Lu Ming said that he was not afraid of death threats, he was actually warning Perry and Donnan: "Those hundreds of sailors are facing death threats at any time, and you two guys are also facing death threats at any time!" ”

Because there is no need to deliver the goods now, after Lu Ming finished speaking, Yang Manchu waved his hand, and Xiao Lamei took a few little girls from the Ministry of Communications to put the "International Free Trade Agreement between the Korean People's Liberation Army, Texas Oil Company, and Mobil Oil Company" that had already been printed out in front of Perry and Tang Nan, and the Parker fountain pens had already unscrewed the caps and put them on the table.

From Xiao Lamei down, the six little girls were all neatly dressed in military uniforms, with small Browning pistols hanging from their waists, and they were in a row behind Perry and Donnan. No one knows whether it is a bodyguard or an armed guard.

Agreements in English and Chinese, and in quadruplicate.

Perry turned his head to look at Don Nan, who was in a daze like a fool next to him, and the two of them could only smile bitterly at each other. Then he reached out and picked up the agreement and looked at it, and the conditions were the same as what the chief of the general staff on the other side said, the only part that was not there was the last few words of "not afraid of death threats".

The next party behind these four agreements, Xian Yu Tongmo, chairman of the DPRK's anti-Japanese democratic government and commander-in-chief of the Korean People's Liberation Army, has already signed it, and Pyongyang City Mayor Jang Ok-su has also signed it.

At noon on October 20, 1937, Perry, the representative of the Texas Oil Company in Manchuria, and Tang Nan, the representative of the Mobil Oil Company in Manchuria, finally signed the "International Free Trade Agreement" after half an hour of silence.

This qiē process, Perry and Donnan are both "voluntary"!

Because Lu Ming and Yang Manchu have been smoking, there is no squeak. Xiao Lamei and the six little girls who were so beautiful that they didn't even speak well stood there without even breathing a mouthful. This is very important, and it is specifically emphasized by Bai Shujie!

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Ming took Perry and Tang Nan to the communication department of Guangfa Temple, because there were only two 150W high-power radios here, which had just moved back from the Jinzhou radio communication base station not long ago.

Perry and Tangnan sent a total of four telegrams, two of which were reported to their bosses; The two copies were sent to the Hungarian and Dutch agencies respectively on the procurement and transportation of the M36 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft guns and the Dutch Mk/IV twin-mounted Bofors M36 carrier-based antiaircraft guns.

Since the agreement has been signed, it is a partner, so Yang Manchu, deputy commander-in-chief of the Korean People's Liberation Army, finally smiled, and then hurriedly left the Guangfa Temple with Perry and Tang Nan.

This place can't stay long because this is the location of the headquarters of the Wyvern Expeditionary Force, but halfway through, Payne already felt very uncomfortable with horseback riding, so he took the initiative to propose a proposal:

"Mr. Yang, you don't necessarily need to buy weapons at all, we have launched a new model of off-road jeep. In hilly terrain like yours, this off-road jeep is perfectly suitable. Let's put it this way, where your war horse doesn't go, my jeep can go up. ”

"Mr. Perry, we also need jeeps like this to change the traffic situation, but we don't have a supply." Yang Manchu smiled and said, "If Mr. Perry can deliver, it should be a wonderful start for us to cooperate with each other, right?" ”

Yang Manchu was almost killed by the little devil in Shentouling, and although he was rescued in the end, he was broken five ribs. As soon as he heard that the jeep could climb a hill, his heart immediately attracted enough attention.

If you can install 2 DW82L recoilless guns on such a jeep and suddenly appear on the flank of the enemy's fortress at a critical moment, or on the flank of the enemy's tank, two shells will be all right!

Bai Shujie asked Lu Ming to come forward to negotiate, and the reason why the listed weapons catalog did not ask the Americans for any infantry weapons was because the Americans in this period actually had nothing. The only place that can be leveraged is the technology of the American devils.

At present, the international camp has not yet been formed, and there are such strict barriers to technical exchanges. In addition, the international economic crisis has not been completely lifted, and the international situation has changed unpredictably since the large-scale invasion of China by the little devils, and the Americans hope to seek a certain balance, and opportunities will naturally appear.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
