The sudden increase in the army in Assam region in northwest India made the empire very uncomfortable, and the increase in the army in the Kachin region in north Myanmar also made the UK very nervous. Although the empire had small moves in Assam region, it continued to expand.

In the actual control area, but China and the UK can basically maintain a stable and peaceful relationship.

As the two sides' troops deployed in Southwest Asia showed a trend of confrontation, the long-term conflict between China and Britain gradually emerged. Britain wanted to maintain its glory and interests around the world, while the empire wanted to squeeze Britain out of Asia.

The empire's foreign policy towards Britain was to recognize Britain's interests in other parts of the world, but at the same time, it was necessary to try its best to curb Britain's interests in Asia. The empire gradually squeezed Britain out of Asia, and the British continued to make concessions as its national strength declined, and this process may be long.

For decades, there will be no large-scale war between the two sides. If Britain is unwilling to gradually withdraw from Asia in such a run, or even use military force to stop this time, it will be a very tragic thing.

.

The Empire is a local war in Asia. Britain traveled thousands of miles to Asia to fight the Empire. It was an unwise choice no matter how you think about it. But is Britain willing to be gradually squeezed out of Asia by the Empire?

Obviously not willing.

After the Empire increased its troops in the Kachin area, Britain was very nervous.

The British Empire once said a famous saying between countries, that is, "Strength is supreme". When their military power is strong and invincible, they freely declare that a powerful empire can get everything they want, and when their strength is weak

They began to declare the mutual respect and importance of peace in the country.

China is really disdainful of this, but on the surface, China also recognizes the mutual respect of the country and demands that the United Kingdom make Asian countries completely free as soon as possible.

No matter how hard it is, China always has a way to toss the UK.

After the Empire sent new troops to the Kachin Autonomous Palace, British Ambassador to China Sir Anchibaard Carr went to the Empire's Foreign Affairs Department to communicate, confirming that the main responsibility of the British troops sent to the Assam area was to clear out local anti-British troops.

The rebel armed forces did not have plans to increase tensions. At the same time, they also hoped that the empire would effectively control the Southwest Military Reclamation Bureau and should not cross the line to cultivate and affect the lives of the locals.

This is just taking off your pants and farting.

After meeting with Sir Carl, Gu Weijun immediately went to the Central Palace and the emperor to report on diplomatic affairs between the two countries.

The family is still staying in Lushan for vacation, and the Crown Prince Yuhua stays in Lushan to attend the meeting. The Nuo Da Central Palace is empty as if only the emperor is the only one. Song Biao seems particularly quiet during these two days. He is the only one who eats, sleeps and

rest.

This made him a little uncomfortable, after all, this is the Central Palace, the royal court.

The empire seemed to be fighting everywhere, in Southwest Asia, in Northwest Asia, in Northeast Asia, and in the Southeast Pacific... The empire had serious differences with Britain, the Soviet Union, Japan and the United States at the same time, as if there was no peace, but in Beijing,

Life is still as ordinary as ever, and the war with Japan is gradually entering its final stage, just like the seventh year of the Afghan War, it is not painful or itchy, and only military expenditures put pressure on the central government.

In the Central Palace.

The luxurious and glorious palace is so colorful in summer, with quiet bamboo forests, gurgling streams and blooming flowers. After thirty years of construction, the Central Palace is enough to be called the most luxurious and gorgeous palace in the world, and it was the life of Emperor Song Biao.

In business, this seems to be the only physical object that is within reach and visible.

Song Biao, who spent midsummer every year in the Summer Palace and Chengde Summer Resort, suddenly returned to the Central Palace and felt that midsummer in the Central Palace was also more and more beautiful and quiet.

At his age, men are always unable to live without the family they created, but occasionally staying away from their family and living alone in the Central Palace is also a different feeling.

He just wandered in the imperial garden with almost no pursuit, enjoying the tranquility of the afternoon, spreading casually in the corridors with bamboo forests on both sides. Throughout the morning, he spent his time in the garden of the Central Palace, calm and

Qingning can make him think more about the meaning of life.

He thought, in this endless universe, looking down at the planet below from above, who could see him as quiet as wild in this palace?

Everything he strives for is so small in the Nirvana of the Universe.

Prime Minister Gu Weijun came to ask for a meeting. It was almost time for lunch. Song Biao did not rush to meet Gu Weijun, but asked Jiang Shoulin to arrange a luncheon and prepare to have a meal with Prime Minister Gu Weijun at noon.

It was time to be on time that Emperor Song Biao walked out of the quiet imperial garden and hosted the Prime Minister in the nearby Cizheng Garden.

Gu Weijun waited in the stone boat next to the Xichi Rock Mountain in Cizheng Garden for half an hour before seeing the emperor walking in leisurely. Gu Weijun hurriedly got up and bowed, and Emperor Song Biao simply nodded.

, let him sit and have a meal together.

The royal banquet of the royal family has always been very simple. On average, each royal member only arranges four dishes, two soups and one dessert, and the portions are not large. Today's arrangement is more casual, because only the emperor and the prime minister

For a separate meal, the Nei Ting Imperial Food Bureau arranged six dishes, two cold dishes, and a bird's nest with one cup each.

As in the Northeast, Emperor Song Biao had a very good preference for braised lion heads. The Imperial Food Bureau arranged it every two days, but the tastes were constantly changing, Sichuan flavor, Guangdong flavor, Shandong flavor, and Huaiyang series.

The skills of the Zhejiang-style roasted pork are different. Today is the braised lion head of the Huaiyang-style, and the soup is lighter and vegetarian.

After sitting down, Emperor Song Biao took the initiative to put a lion head on Gu Weijun with a spoon and said, "Today we are the only ones who are eating, so we don't pay attention to any rules, just eat enough."

Gu Weijun was very moved. Not everyone can have such a holy relative.

Song Biao remembered something else and continued to ask him: "How is your father-in-law's health?"

Gu Weijun replied: "It's okay. I've been quite tough in the past few years. I caught a cold a few days ago and had pneumonia, so it's not a big deal."

Song Biao nodded slightly and sighed with greater ease: "It's fine if there is no serious injury."

There are some things that Song Biao didn't say, but there is actually no need to say too clearly.

Gu Weijun's marriage was basically broken. As we all know, the couple had other people outside, but for political reasons, the two did not divorce.

This situation may be inevitable. Marriage is a very difficult relationship to maintain. When both parties are no longer intimate, it will be even more difficult to maintain.

Because this matter is generally blamed, the relationship between him and Tang Shaoyi is not as close as in previous years. Tang Shaoyi is the kind of person who is unwilling to retire, so he has been involved in the party in the past few years.

Fortunately, the two of them did not break up in their faces overall. Even if they broke up, without the Tang Dynasty connections and the support of the congressmen, Gu Weijun had enough strength to successfully be re-elected.

Song Biao doesn't like to interfere in these private matters, let alone make it clear. He just felt quite emotional when he thought about it.

Compared with Tang Shaoyi, his relationship with his three sons-in-law is still very good.

In fact, many people don’t know that Su Bin is his son-in-law.

Song Biao really likes Su Bin very much, and to some extent it is also the worship of the past, and Su Bin is indeed very talented. After his Yuanmao passed away, Song Biao used Chen Jin as a matchmaker to make his second daughter Princess An Yi.

Introduce him.

Princess Anyi's marriage life is also very unfortunate. Her original husband was a major in the Air Force. Because of an accident, she died in the 14th year of Shenwu. After that, Princess Anyi had a lover, who was finance.

A staff member of the department is very handsome. Song Biao has seen him twice, but Song Biao doesn't like this person very much because he is actually married and has at least not divorced.

Under Song Biao's instruction, Chen Jin could only be forced to intervene in the matter as his brother-in-law. Princess An Yi initially looked down on Su Bin and was unwilling to do a re-string, but this matter was still being arranged.

Including Shufei, she also intervened in this matter many times. Before the Sino-Japanese War began, Princess An Yi agreed to the engagement with Su Bin.

This matter has been going on for more than five years. For the royal family, it is more or less glorious, so it is very confidential. Even someone like Fu Zuoyi, who once served as the head of the inner court, does not know about it.

Now it seems that it is not a good thing to keep it too secret.

If Fu Zuoyi knew that Su Bin's recent situation was quite special, he might not have brought Su Bin back to the Northeast Defense Forces Operational Staff. If Su Bin had been in the Second Army as the acting chief of staff, the situation would have been better, of course, it might have been possible.

I made a mistake with Fu Zuoyi because Su Bin is also very risky to use military service to fight.

Su Bin is a talented person.

Emperor Song Biao would definitely not let him be idle. Soon after Su Bin returned to the General Staff, he sent him to Chen Wu again, and went to the Fourth Army as the division commander, and then promoted him to the commander of the 14th Army. The Korean War happened to be a

At a very special stage, the empire was very close to the German and US army systems before, and there was no military-level organization under a peaceful state. During the Sino-Japanese War, the disadvantages of this problem became very obvious.

According to Chen Wu's proposal, the Northeast Defense Forces have begun to carry out military-level organization, and the specific organization reform is under the responsibility of Chen Wu and Liu Gengyun. The current situation is that each army group has two to three armies, and after the war,

The military-level organization will continue to be abolished, and the military region commander will continue to command basic command units at the division and brigade level.

Su Bin took this opportunity to become the commander of the 14th Army, and then he was under the command of Xue Yue. Of course, his performance was very eye-catching, but Emperor Song Biao knew very well that General Su was a general, not a first-class general.

Song Biao and Su Bin must have a very good relationship, and his relationship with Chen Jin is also very good. After all, after so many years of getting along, Princess An Xian’s husband is not as famous as the first two, just Central University of Technology

He is an associate professor of general surgery, but the prince consort has the best relationship with the emperor, because he is not busy and can often accompany Princess An Xian back to the palace for a few days.

Thinking of the relationship between Tang Shaoyi and his son-in-law, and thinking about himself, in comparison, Emperor Song Biao felt that his life was still very good, his children were good, and his son-in-law and daughter-in-law were also good, at least there was no bastard.

This is how a family is, and the environment is very important.

Emperor Song Biao and Prime Minister Gu Weijun had a meal together. Neither of them was in a hurry to talk about the UK issue, but only talked about some not very important things, which were generally related to the Lushan Conference.

After the luncheon was over and the tea was served again, Song Biao sipped a bite of green tea and cleared his mouth. Then he asked Gu Weijun: "How is the situation of your meeting with the British ambassador?"

Gu Weijun hurriedly replied: "It is precisely to report this to the lower class that Ambassador Carl and our country explained the British motive for sending troops to the Assam region. In principle, there is no plan to have a military conflict with our country, so we hope that our country will restrain itself,

We are also asked to explain the goal of sending troops south, especially the navy to the South Ocean."

Song Biao said simply and asked Gu Weijun: "How do you think about this matter?"

Gu Weijun said: "Report to Your Majesty, I believe that my country and Britain are not dominated by our country. The members of the Asian League have a firm position on anti-British positions. Our country should retreat behind the scenes and promote the Asian League countries to be enemies with the United Kingdom with the stance of protecting allies. , and unify the opinions within the Asian League and unify the United Kingdom, and in particular encourage Islamic and Southeast Asian countries to confront each other with the United Kingdom. This is the best strategy. As for the need for such an obvious confrontation between my country and the United Kingdom, as long as my country and Britain do not conflict directly, Our country has given the highest respect from the UK on the surface, and has secretly gradually eroded the actual control range in the southwest, and then supported other countries to confront the UK, making it difficult for Britain to take the overall situation into consideration and concentrate on entanglement with our country in the southwest and ** areas. This is the best strategy.”

Song Biao nodded slightly, but said, "I'm afraid that other countries will be less easy to control, and things will be more likely to intensify."

Gu Weijun said: "That should be a matter of the Asian League, not a matter of our country."

Song Biao agreed: "Your idea is quite wonderful. The number of Asian League members is increasing day by day. All countries have their own plans, but one thing is unified, that is, anti-colonial stances such as anti-Britishness."

Gu Weijun said: "In the Asian League, at this stage, there is only Iran, and Iran is the result of support from the past twenty years. Although Saudi Arabia and other countries are becoming richer, their strength is still insufficient.

I think that the empire should give more support to allies and encourage the development of all countries, especially the development of Southeast Asia, as the foundation for a long-term foothold in the world. As for the current situation, we should encourage Middle Eastern countries to expand conflicts with the UK, and our country will suppress Britain with its military strength.

Promoting further decolonization of Asia is the best strategy.”

Song Biao sighed.

After all, politicians have their own ideas, but Gu Weijun's approach is indeed better.

If it is an ordinary person's idea, Song Biao would definitely hope that the Imperial Navy would fight a decisive battle with the British Navy and have an alternation between the old and the new, but in reality, it requires very high skills and skills to operate such things.

After pondering deeply, Song Biao and Gu Weijun ordered: "Please handle this matter according to your ideas. You can not rush to intensify the conflict for the time being, but I want to remind you that the current naval advantage of the empire can be maintained for about five years.
To be continued...
