One hundred and eighty-third chapter minister Shinawatra
Yamamoto made a difficult decision to compromise. Although he felt it was degrading, he still felt that it was a humiliating sacrifice made to preserve his allies. However, in the eyes of Kansong and Salit, this was not the same as a naked betrayal. No different, when the Telecommunications Office of the Prime Minister's Office received the telegram personally drafted by Yamamoto, a group of civil and military ministers such as Kanson and Shinawatra were engaged in a fierce verbal battle in front of the King of Thailand on how to deal with the current crisis. The military commander lurking in Bangkok The agents received Dai Li's order, and team leader Wang Xiaoyun transformed into the new plenipotentiary ambassador of the Republic of China to Thailand. Following Dai Li's instructions, he submitted his credentials to the Thai government, stating that the Republic of China had no intention of invading Thailand, a traditional friendly country. The reason why the current situation happened This situation is actually the result of the Thais' self-inflicted collusion with the Japanese invaders. They proposed a solution on the last page of their credentials, saying that as long as Thailand announced to terminate its alliance with Japan and form an alliance with China, the Republic of China would do its best to help. They resisted the Japanese invasion. The Republic of China government extended an olive branch regardless of past suspicions. As evidenced by the suspension of military operations by the student army that had broken through the Bangbo line of defense, the pro-China faction headed by Shinawatra received strong support and wrote to the King of Thailand to request a convening. The matter was discussed in a meeting in front of the palace. When the two sides were quarreling red-faced, Yamamoto suddenly called. Unexpectedly, Kansong thought that the Japanese had retreated. He thought that the Japanese army had already made new arrangements, so he asked the telecommunications officer to read the message in front of the audience. , the prime minister had an order, how dare the telecommunications officer disobey, he read out the message loudly, and the whole room was shocked.
Kansong and Shali were so angry that their faces turned blue and white, and they almost vomited blood on the spot.
Shinawatra was relieved. Due to Kansong's power, he resisted the urge to laugh loudly and said sarcastically: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, this is what you call a great ally. How shameless." The Empire of Japan's care for its allies will be best reflected through this incident. Does their so-called care mean abandoning their allies and fleeing alone? Prime Minister, the country has reached a critical moment of life and death. You can no longer hesitate and post immediately. Statement to terminate the military agreement with Japan, I heard that the Xuebing Army was not very obedient to the orders of the Republic of China government..."
While Shinawatra was speaking, Kansong had many thoughts and quickly made a decision. He suddenly raised his head and interrupted: "Don't say anything anymore. You can immediately issue a telegram to announce this to the outside world. Your You are right to worry. In order to prevent the Chinese soldiers outside the city from taking drastic measures, I decided to send you to negotiate with them."
"What, why did you send me there?" Shinawatra roared,
"Because you have the loudest call for peace with them." Kansong sneered,
Shinawatra's eyes widened when he met him, and he didn't dare to say anything more. He thought of the legends about the Xuebing Army that had been circulating in the city during this period. While feeling horrified, he couldn't help but have a bold idea.
Wang Xiaoyun suddenly became the plenipotentiary ambassador of the Republic of China to Thailand. After submitting his credentials to the Thai government, he went directly to Chu Tiange's military camp in accordance with Dai Li's instructions. Both Chiang Kai-shek and Dai Li knew that this time, Thailand's policy towards China would be completely changed. The changes were brought about by the student army. They were nearly two thousand kilometers away. They knew that the so-called central government had no deterrent effect on the student expeditionary force, so they just wanted to look good and gave all the specific decision-making power to the students. Chu Tiange, the frontline commander of the Bing Expeditionary Force,
With the help of Wang Xiaoyun and the consent of the Xuebing Army, Shinawah waved a white flag and entered the Xuebing Army camp with only a translator to ask for Chu Tiange. Chu Tiange met him in a temporary tent and asked him to He was slightly surprised that when Shinawatra saw him for the first time, he put his hands together and bowed deeply, and then said something respectfully,
"What did he say?" Chu Tiange asked the translator standing behind Shinawatra.
The translator quickly bowed and then replied: "The deputy prime minister said that I have paid a visit to the general of the country above. He asked the general to forgive me. Our country's alliance with the Japanese invaders is a last resort."
"I am a great general of our country," Chu Tiange read, shook his head and sneered: "Since you call yourself a subordinate, it seems that you understand the history of China and Thailand, so why do you still want to collude with the Japanese? Well, do you think that China has been defeated in the Sino-Japanese war?"
When the translator translated his words, Shinawatra was shocked and broke into a cold sweat. He said respectfully: "Forging an alliance with the Japanese invaders is something that Prime Minister Kansong and Army Marshal Salit strongly advocated. We were all coerced. I hope the general will learn from this."
Being called a general again, although he quite enjoyed the title, Chu Tiange said seriously: "Don't call me a general anymore, I'm just a small army commander. Times have changed, and the relationship between countries has also changed." It’s different. If you have anything to say, just say it.”
"Yes, yes, Your Excellency, Army Commander, I am here at the request of your government to express the sincerity of the alliance between the two countries."
"At the request of our government, ha, this is what you call sincerity."
"Ah, no, no, I made a mistake. Yes, our government is asking for forgiveness from your government. I came here specifically to apologize and express condolences to the Heavenly Soldiers of the Kingdom of Heaven."
"So that's it, Deputy Prime Minister Shinawatra, I already know your purpose of coming, but you have found the wrong person. I am just a soldier. I only know how to follow orders. You understand."
Shinawatra was shocked when he heard what the translator said. He bravely raised his head and took a look at Chu Tiange. He found that the legendary heart-eating devil did not look so scary. He stammered: "Jun, Your Excellency, Army Commander, your Excellency, I came here to apologize sincerely, I, we really know we were wrong."
Chu Tiange didn't know that at this moment, legends about him were flying all over the city of Bangkok. The most outrageous one was that he was described as a three-foot-tall demon with a body and a lion's head who loved to eat people's hearts.
These rumors were spread by Japanese agents. The Japanese intended to arouse Thai people's hatred of the Xuebing Army, but the result seemed to have the opposite effect. It is true that the Thai people hate the Xuebing Army, but Because they could not overcome the fear in their hearts, this hatred was just hatred and did not evolve into strength. Even because they were too afraid, the remaining fighting spirit of the Thais was completely lost. They had to raise their hands and shout surrender.
When Ouyang Yun designed the "retaliation operation", he just wanted to teach the Thai people a profound lesson so that they would be wary in the subsequent war. However, the actual effect far exceeded expectations. The Thai people were not only frightened and seemed to be "tamed". The most important thing is that the Japanese army actually gave up on Thailand as an ally. In the next certain period of time, the Japanese army will not be able to launch an offensive against China from Laos and Vietnam. Unexpectedly Ouyang Yun was so surprised by the harvest that he was happy to be a good person and obey Chiang Kai-shek's wishes for once.
With the experience of that time and space, Ouyang Yun knew that the Thai government was weak and could be bullied, but he did not expect that it would reach this level. For this operation, Xuebingjun paid a lot of price. Ouyang Yun has never been one to suffer. Since Chiang Kai-shek has handed over the negotiation work with the Thai government to Chu Tiange, he naturally doesn't mind being the "Zhou Bapi" behind the scenes. He has just been "out of danger". This seems to be the same as the Thai people's gossip. Only Chu Tiange can do it.
