Chapter 431: Insidious tricks
Rhen didn't know what the Leng Yuan sold in the gourd, so he spread his hands out with white gloves and said lightly: "Please speak."
Leng Yuan looked straight into rhen's eyes, with a strange arc raised on the corner of his lips, then moved his dark purple eyes to the general, and said deeply: "As long as the northern rebels no longer regard themselves as the orthodox republic, and abandon the red flag and establish a new country name, I can consider the agreement to divide the north and the south."
A hint of surprise flashed in rhen's eyes. He had imagined many situations and considered that Leng Yuan might have made some unrealistic requests, but what is the situation now? He asked to give up the Red Flag, change the country name, and it is gone?
In Rhen's opinion, this requirement is as simple as turning over the palm!
Change the red flag? Yes, it’s just a sign. Change it to black flag, blue flag, and green flag. Aren’t it all flags?
Change the country name? This is even simpler. It’s just to abandon the word “republic” and just find a synonym to replace it!
Leng Yuan isn’t crazy, what’s the difference between this and giving away the country to the land? Jiang Zong should take this opportunity to agree!
However, things didn't go as expected.
"Bang!" Suddenly, he slapped Zong's thin palm on the table. Although he was not as striking as Leng Yuan, he was also powerful: "Don't be crazy, evil."
Chu Linfeng originally had the same idea as Rhen, thinking that when Leng Yuan said the conditions, the overall situation was stabilized. Unexpectedly, the general was rejected by the sect without hesitation. Why is this?
Chu Linfeng was a little anxious, thinking that his father was old and didn't hear it clearly for a while. He hurried forward and said, "Father, with Rhen present to testify, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Why don't we agree quickly!"
Rhen's fingers were tapping on the table regularly, but the frequency was much faster than before. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Yes, Jiangzong, please consider this matter carefully. This is the negotiating table, and there is no joke. I believe that General Leng Yuan will not joke about such a big thing."
Rhen and Chu Linfeng thought that the general was old, had a pedantic concept and had obsession with the Republic and the Red Banners, so they remained famous and planned to persuade him more, so they asked him to give up these things that were not available and seize the actual interests.
You know, as soon as this agreement was signed, there were rebels north of the Yellow River, which was almost no different from before the Northern Expedition! This is not a pie that fell from the sky, it was simply a gold loss!
However, Jiang Zong's face was full of anger, and his old hand tightened the teacup on the table, and his joints clattered with force. He said in a decisive tone: "As long as I am still alive, I will never agree to such conditions."
Chu Linfeng reached out to wipe the sweat from his head and said anxiously: "Father, are you confused? There will be no second chance like this!"
Rhen's fingers were tapping on the table at a frequency that he had never seen before. On the surface, he didn't look abnormal, but a trace of depth had appeared on his slightly narrowed eyes: "Jiangzong, please consider it. Once some things are missed, it will be difficult to recover them."
It seemed that fire was about to spit out of Jiang Zong's eyes. He looked at Chu Linfeng coldly, and his voice revealed unshakable firmness: "Whoever tampers with the country's name will be my head! Don't discuss this matter again!"
"Hahahahaha!" Leng Yuan leaned on the chair and laughed heartily. Her hands clapped in the air one after another, and said in a hypocritical tone, "Jiangzong is worthy of being a veteran of the Republic. His nostalgia and heroic grace are unmatched. It is not easy, not easy to stick to principles in the face of huge benefits!"
Aside, Agronso's figure sitting upright remained motionless. His eyes, which were deeper than the ghost prison, were filled with pressure, staring at Leng Yuan straight, as if thinking about something.
A moment later, Agronso's figure suddenly shook, and his eyes showed a sudden enlightenment, and he smiled coldly: "So that's how a young eagle, I underestimated you, he actually has such a vicious side."
With Agronso's question, the others on the negotiating table also reacted. They suddenly realized for a moment, and their eyes changed when they looked at Leng Yuan.
If someone had despised Leng Yuan before and thought she was just a general and was not good at negotiation and strategy, then now they have completely changed their minds and finally a barrier to guard against her has arisen in their hearts.
Leng Yuan’s previous proposal “Abandon the Red Flag and change the country’s name”
Are there any problems with the conditions? The problem is big! This is not about giving up the country and pushing the rebels to a death row!
To understand this issue, you must think from the root of the rebels.
The Northern Rebels originated from the three-year destruction of the Patriotic War. After the defeat of the Republic, the Republic of China surrendered to the Federal Heavy Industry Corps, ceded the co-government area, allowed the federal consul to settle in, and even erected a wall of life to support the people.
A large number of bloody soldiers were dissatisfied with this weak practice and defected under the leadership of Jiang Zong, wanting to seize the important industrial areas in the north, keep a low profile, wait until the time is right, go south, swallow up the weak republic, and finally launch a general attack on the Federal Asia-Pacific War Zone and recover the country.
From this point of view, are the northern rebels traitors to the motherland? Yes, nor are they.
From the perspective of the orthodox regime of "Glory of the Republic", the northern rebels are indeed real "rebels" and traitors.
But if we want to look at the "motherland", the northern rebels have never deviated from the motherland! They stick to the red flag, protect their people, never abandon their republic status, and try to cleanse the national humiliation with their own strength.
In a sense, these northern rebels are hawks among the hawks, and are a group of people who want to save the country even if they risk the world's worst.
The reason why so many soldiers are willing to escape with General Zong Bei is, on the one hand, there are certainly the personal charm of General Zong. He has coached too many generals, and there are many students all over the world. At any time, he can respond to it.
But more because the northern rebels firmly believed that the generals could lead them to "save the country", crush the weak republic with the torrent, integrate the regime, and then attack the east to defeat the Federation and unify the republic.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Red Banner and the Republic are the beliefs of every northern rebel soldier.
Just now, Leng Yuan threw out the condition of "abandoning the red flag and changing the country's name". If Zong Zhen accepts this condition for the sake of his territory, it will not be just a "nominal" issue, it will directly smash the faith of all rebel soldiers!
This is a trick Leng Yuan used huge benefits as bait to lure the clan into baiting.
Once Jiang Zong dares to nod his head and agree, the faith of the northern rebels will face collapse. They will suspect that Jiang Zong has betrayed his original intention, betrayed the soldiers, and truly “betrayed the motherland”.
In this way, even if Jiang Zong obtains the territory north of the Yellow River through an agreement, he will completely lose all the morale of the military and the people, and will never raise the banner of unified republic, and will never call on anyone. From then on, everyone will betray their relatives and betray them from now on!
Therefore, the conditions for Jiang Zong to reject Leng Yuan were not just because of his own ideological traditions. Perhaps he also cared about his status, but more because he had seen through Leng Yuan's evil plan.
Now, the leaders at the negotiating table have realized the trap Leng Yuan put on, and even sweated in a cold sweat!
