Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple said: "I came to see Li Runshi, but I knew that the old road to the imperial kingdom had come to an end. I came here this time because I was a dying old man who wanted to take the opportunity to see Li Runshi's demeanor. As for the future of Nibo Life or death has nothing to do with me."

That night, Xiyuansi Gongwang met Chairman Li Runshi.

PS: Let’s stop here first, this chapter is not very well written, mainly because it’s too sleepy, and it’s a little bit stuck.Change it tomorrow.

PS: Regarding the plot of the industrialized description that many people have been asking, the main reason is that there are too many main plots that have not been explained, and there is no space to write.In addition, I dare not scribble about the plot of industrialization, because I am a science student and have worked in a factory. From the initial stage of leveling the primitive wasteland to the completion of production, from the new recruits to the training of qualified workers, the whole process I've been through it all.It is precisely because I have experienced it and know what is going on, that I dare not write nonsense like those who have not been in the factory gate for a day.Because I know that this is really a very complicated and huge amount of work.

Human beings are the biggest exploits in all the time-traveling novels.

Chapter 317 Li Runshi and Xiyuan Temple Gongwang

Gongwang Xiyuanji came to China with a team of more than a dozen people. In addition to himself, he also had his own grandson Gongyi who followed him to China. In addition, there are also a number of devils and officers who were fanatics who invaded China, big and small. After the end of the war in 1938, Japan was in a period of rapid transformation of its foreign strategic direction. The army was frightened by the joint efforts of China and the Soviet Union. At this time, it no longer had the courage to challenge China.In the past year, the intelligence that has been sent back from China is full of frightening bad news.

"In the areas ruled by the CCP, officials are clean and corruption is almost invisible."

"Gangsters, drug dealers, hooligans, all killed within a few months."

"Wherever the CCP army goes, the people are all mobilized..."

To paraphrase the words of Neiji Okamura of China: China after 1938 is like Japan after the victory of the Fallen War in 1868. The whole country is full of vitality and everything is competing. period country.

"Unity is the top!" Not only the opinion of Neiji Okamura, but also the attitude of intelligence personnel who came to China in 1938 or withdrew Japan from New China.

According to Xiyuanji Gongwang, the best choice for Japan is like the United States and the Soviet Union, openly recognizing the CCP regime, making a gesture of friendship between China and Japan, and at the same time making a high-profile return on the Taiwan issue-but this is only His "beautiful fantasy" alone is simply impossible.

In reality, a group of people from Xiyuanji Gongwang visited China in secret. In the founding ceremony two days later, this group of Japanese, except for Xiyuanji Gongwang, will only mix in the crowd as a trick. It will not be reported in a high-profile manner.

According to Xiyuan Temple, if there are dissatisfaction in the country, just come to me alone (I am dying anyway), and I am contributing the last bit of waste heat to the Great Japanese Empire.

But the actual situation is only clear to him: showing a friendly attitude between China and Japan in a high profile will add points for the future of his family; "low-key visit to China", not many people in China would dare to criticize him at this time.Compared with those juniors who would hide themselves in all kinds of ways at critical moments and only bow, the old fox who grew older and became more refined was the old monster who really calculated people's hearts to the extreme.

Before the founding ceremony, there were many things about Li Runshi, and he only had one night's secret meeting with Xiyuansi Gongwang.

The place where the two met was the famous Aulue Tower by the Yangtze River. (Writer: At this time, the famous Yellow Crane Tower was destroyed by fire in 1884, and it was not rebuilt until 1985 in history)

Because its shape is similar to that of the Tang and Song Dynasties, the Aolue Tower was often mistaken for the Yellow Crane Tower by tourists at that time.

11 years ago, 30-year-old Li Runshi and his wife Jiao Yang climbed up the Aulue Tower together. As far as he could see, the famous Yellow Crane Tower ruins in the distance may have encountered spring rain, but he was still full of pride. He wrote the famous " Tiaoji Bodhisattva Man·Climbing the Yellow Crane Tower": "The vast nine schools flow through China, and the heavy line runs through the north and south. The mist and rain are vast, and the turtle and snake lock the river. Where does the yellow crane go? There are still tourists. The wine is pouring, and the heart is chasing the waves. high!"

Eleven years later, when Li Runshi, as the supreme leader of China, met with the Japanese patriarch Saionji Komochi here, he also had mixed feelings in his heart.

Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple is 90 years old this year, and Li Runshi is 45 years old. The age difference between the two is exactly double. They stand on the roof of the building, blowing the river breeze, and enjoy the night view of the Yangtze River together.The reason why I chose this place was because the hotels in Wuhan were already full of guests from all over the world, and the Aulue Building was considered a famous sight in Wuhan.

When Li Runshi and Xiyuan Temple Gongwang were facing each other in front of the stone table on the roof, drinking hot tea to appreciate the river view and pointing out Jiangshan, Elena was sitting on the side, playing the guzheng as the representatives of China and Japan on the scene " Adding to the fun" - all of this was arranged by Huang Ke out of bad taste.

The famous song she played is the famous "Thousand Cherry Blossoms".

At the scene, on the tower, not counting Elena, there were five people from China and Japan, and everyone was listening to her playing the famous song quietly, with different expressions on their faces.

Li Runshi's eyes were a little empty. This time, this place, this situation, this scene may have caused him to drift into the memory of watching the mountains and rivers with his lover here 11 years ago.

Gong Wang of Xiyuan Temple heard the music and became emotional, recalling the muddy years that Japan has gone through since the Meiji Restoration.

However, Wu Hao recalled the past when he briefly studied abroad in Japan when he was young.

As for the old devil Okamura Ningji, he remembered the ironic lyrics in "Thousand Cherry Blossoms".

At the end of the song, Gong Wang of Xiyuan Temple sighed: "70 years ago, when I was still a young man, I participated in that reformation, and at that time China also started the Westernization Movement."

Li Runshi replied: "At that time, China experienced two disastrous defeats in the Opium Wars, and gradually opened its eyes to the world."

Xiyuan Temple Gongwang said: "Just like in the lyrics, 'Bold and Fearless Westernization Revolution,' Japan later abandoned some traditions and began to Westernize..."

Li Runshi said: "But in fact, it has only absorbed Western technology, Western colonial ideas, and Western means of exploitation, but in essence, it still maintains a large number of old feudal traditional thinking. It cannot be said to be revolutionary or reform. After the Meiji Restoration, the common people in Japan were actually more miserable than before the Restoration.”

"That sums it up really sharply."

Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple turned his head and looked at Huang Ke who was sitting on the side as an interpreter. The other party had two roles: one was an interpreter, and the other was sitting at the table making tea for everyone—performing the Kung Fu tea ceremony of later generations.

Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple drank the Longjing tea served by Huang Ke, and asked Huang Ke: "Your book "The Chrysanthemum and the Sword" describes the history of Japan in that period in detail. Where did you come from? Got it."

Huang Ke replied: "When I was young, I traveled around the world, met many friends, and learned a lot from chatting."

Gong Wang of Xiyuan Temple scolded with a smile: "You are deceiving me again."

Wu Hao said: "70 years ago, when facing the invasion of Western powers, people of insight, whether in China or Japan, realized the beginning of this era of great change that had not been seen in 3000 years... Some of us People of insight, all realize that the old traditions and cultures are no longer enough to cope with the coming world of great controversy, and they all start to search for the truth outside!"

"A world of great controversy is a good sentence, and a good sentence is to search for the truth..."

Xiyuansi Gongwang shifted his gaze from Huang Ke to Wu Hao. He fired at Huang Ke earlier, but he just wanted to test this young man who was the best to deal with first, but Huang Ke was slippery and talked about his flaws. The floor is full of nonsense to deal with.

Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple has lived for 90 years, and he has already matured. Looking at the three people sitting in front of him, his heart is full of envy.

Li Runshi in front of him is very tall, with a broad forehead and a pair of bright eyes. When sitting in front of him, he has a mountain-like momentum. Even the old and mature Xiyuan Temple Gongwang feels pressure when facing him huge.

Wu Hao next to him was not as imposing as him, but his gentle and elegant demeanor made Xiyuan Sigong understand that this person was also a formidable enemy.As for Commander Zhu in the other corner.He may seem gentle, but looking at his life, he is also a courageous person who has experienced countless bloody battles and long marches.

As for the one next to him that he is most familiar with, the young and slightly frivolous one, although it is far less than the three people in front of him and makes him feel a lot of pressure, but when he thinks that he is only 21 years old now, and what he has done in the past three years, no matter what Comparing the group of "crooked melons and bad dates" that I brought to China to "broaden my horizons", always reminded Xiyuanji Gongwang of China and Japan before the Sino-Japanese War.

Before the First Sino-Japanese War, Japan was full of heroes, while the Manchu Qing Dynasty at that time was full of scumbags.

Now, 70 years later, the situation is reversed.

Gong Wang of Xiyuan Temple sighed endlessly, drank the water in the white porcelain teacup in his hand, put it on the table, and said: "After the Meiji era, Japan worked hard to westernize, but in its core, it is an Eastern country."

Li Runshi replied:

"It takes ten years to grow trees, and a hundred years to cultivate people. How can the thousands of years of Eastern Confucian cultural traditions be shaken by decades of changing customs? More importantly, after the Meiji, Japan always wins. The more victories, the more introspection The less it is enough. The sooner the victory is won, the more the old and rotten things are preserved..."

Xiyuan Temple Gongwang replied: "A backward feudal capitalist militaristic country!"

The characterization he made came from the book written by Huang Ke.

Li Yunshi said: "After the Meiji period, Japan was actually the same as it used to be. It's just that the ruling machine is more efficient than that of the shogunate, but the essence has not changed."

Gong Wang of Xiyuan Temple asked, "What about China?"

"Keep trying, keep failing. I have gone through all the roads I can think of once. After countless trials and errors, I finally chose the road I am today."

"It's really tragic..."

"Yes, but every failure is a growth, a blood exchange! Countless bloody sacrifices have made revolutionaries more deeply aware of what we should abandon, what we should keep, and what we should choose to embrace... "

On the side, Neiji Okamura looked puzzled at the two people in front of him talking to each other with some "unintelligible" words.Xiyuanji Gongwang came to China for a secret visit, didn't he come to discuss the topic of China and Japan joining forces to carve up East Asia in the future?Why did the two start to "talk about the past, discuss the present and recall the past" instead.

Gong Wang of Xiyuan Temple suddenly said: "Japanese culture originated in China. No matter how westernized it is, it can't get rid of its own roots. Just like that Miss Elena, the musical symbols played by an ancient instrument such as the zither are the best. enchanting."

Li Yunshi said: "In the next 100 years, in Asia, there will inevitably be a fierce conflict between Eastern culture and Western European culture."

Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple snorted and said, "Marxism-Leninism, isn't it also a product from the West?"

"Pure Marxism-Leninism is not suitable for China. It needs to be improved and recombined according to China's national conditions. Although I wholeheartedly want to destroy Confucian culture, Confucian culture is only a small part of the 5000-year history of Chinese culture. And What I have to do is to take it and the essence of Marxist-Leninist thought and reshape it. Trial and error again and again, fail again and again, let us know what to abandon, what to burn... And in Japan, the past There is too little suffering, and too much experience of wrong victories."

Mr. Xiyuanji said noncommittally: "The Western world has always rejected Japan, just like you will inevitably be rejected by the United States and Europe in the future."

"It is true, so you must learn to be self-reliant at any time, and I am the main one."

When Li Runshi said this, the old devil's eyes were fixed on him. He didn't hear what he most wanted to hear from the other party.

Then, Xiyuanji Gongwang began to talk at the table about the evolution of Confucian culture thousands of years after it was introduced to Japan in the Tang Dynasty.And the evolution to the current situation, Xiyuan Temple Gongwang seems to have forgotten his original intention to come to China.

And Li Runshi also seemed to have forgotten the reason for today's meeting. He pulled Xiyuansi Gongwang and began to talk about the evolution of Confucian culture and thought in China.

Li Runshi said: "After the Chinese civilization experienced the changes of Jiashen, the Confucian culture represented by it has developed to the present, and it has become rotten, and drastic changes must be made in order to have a chance of survival.

Gongwang Xiyuanji: "The same is true in Japan..."

That night, Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple accompanied Li Runshi, chatting on the banks of the Yangtze River. As if they had agreed in advance, they always deliberately avoided the topic of Southeast Asia and alliances.

It was not until the end that Xiyuan Temple Gongwang mentioned: In Vietnam, in Nanyang, in Southeast Asia, what do you think of these traditional Confucian culture areas?

Li Yunshi replied: Asia belongs to Asians.

Then, then there is no then.Nothing nutritious was talked about.

That night, after returning to the hotel, Gong Wang of Xiyuan Temple said to the old devils around him: "Don't think too easily about Li Runshi. The so-called Sino-Japanese alliance to carve up Southeast Asia is a big cake drawn by the Chinese side for our fantasies. Don't think about it anymore. I came to China just to let you see how China is different from before, and what kind of person Li Yunshi is, now I know everything."

He asked the people around him: "On the tower today, Li Yunshi's attitude made me understand that it is impossible for China and Japan to join forces to carve up Southeast Asia. Annan even took action in Thailand, invaded foreign countries, plundered and occupied the land there."

The people around were puzzled, saying that you and Li Runshi were both talking about him and playing charades today, and we couldn't understand.

You don't understand, Mr. Xiyuanji thought in his heart, Li Runshi is hostile to Japan and full of ambitions, so he will not tell us the truth.Japan went south to attack Southeast Asia, and the final outcome was bound to be a disastrous defeat.

Ninety-nine percent of the old fox's visit to China this time is to leave a way out for his descendants.Therefore, when negotiating in front of so many Japanese people, they talked about him from left to right, and secretly infiltrated personal goods in his words, in order to curry favor with the Chinese side and prepare for the retaliatory liquidation that Japan may encounter after the failure of the all-out war in the future. Prepare.

Afterwards, he said to his grandson: "Gongyi, you should study hard. Those insects outside can only bow. Pretending to be stupid and bowing is just lying to yourself. These days, pay attention to how I perform. Some words, I We can only talk to Li Runshi in private."

On the other hand, Huang Ke also expressed his puzzlement at the fact that the old fox and the chairman were chatting about that night, but they didn't talk about business.

Wu Hao explained to him:

"Now he and we are testing each other's bottom line."

"It sounds complicated."

Wu Hao said: "Negotiations between politicians and between countries are actually carried out in this way. Japanese culture is ultimately from China, and my husband hope is also a master. You come from later generations, and you are a technician. You are used to it. Going straight and going straight, playing tricks is also pursuing efficiency and going quickly, this kind of water mill-style detours of the older generation is of course not used to it.”

The chairman told the truth and judged: "The old fox actually wanted to find a chance to chat with us in private."

Yesterday's chapter was too sleepy and posted wrongly, so it was corrected in the morning.

Yesterday's chapter was too sleepy and posted the wrong one. I put the draft instead of the revised one, and it was corrected in the morning.

Chapter 318 Chang Kaishen Watches "Liberation" in Gongde Forest

The Japanese mission's visit to China was conducted in secret, and the Chinese side arranged for it to live near the military parade camp on the outskirts of Wuchang - convenient for secrecy and surveillance.

At this time, the whole of Wuhan is preparing for the upcoming founding ceremony.

Wuchang is actually an ancient city, but due to various reasons such as wars, most of the city walls were destroyed.Historically, after the Northern Expedition captured Wuchang City, there was a proposal to demolish the city walls. In the second year, Deng Yanda ordered the demolition of the Wuchang City Walls. In 1928, except for the Zhonghe Gate, the other city walls and gates disappeared.

Compared with Beiping, the three towns of Wuhan span the north and south of the Yangtze River, are close to the Yangtze River, have abundant water resources, and have the convenience of the Yangtze River's water conservancy. They are located in the center of the fishing and rice town of Jingxiang, and food supply is not a problem.The only thing that affected it from becoming the capital was the flood in the Yangtze River.

But flooding is not a problem.Flooding in later generations of Wuhan was serious, but it was because of all kinds of crazy "encirclement of lakes and land reclamation" after the founding of the People's Republic of China, which more than doubled the lake area of ​​the entire Yunmengze area and destroyed the local water network regulation ability.

In addition, Huang Ke has investigated the hydrology of the Yangtze River in later generations. The latest is that in 1953, there will be a Yangtze River flood in Wuhan.And this is 14 years later. Such a long time is enough for the CCP to build the flood control facilities in this area.

Geographically, with the inland city of Wuhan as the capital, the power of the central government can radiate to the northwest and southwest—especially in the direction of Yunnan, Guizhou and Tibet.

As for why Beiping was not chosen as the capital, one is that there are many old and young people here in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties. If you build a capital here, you will understand after looking at later generations. In terms of educational resources alone, more than 400 points go to Tsinghua University, and these old and young people will take up I don't know how cheap it is.Secondly, there is the problem of water shortage in Beiping, and the problem of poverty around Beiping caused by blood sucking in the capital. Compared with Hubei, where "the two lakes are familiar with the world", the negative impact of establishing the capital in Wuhan on the surrounding area is much smaller than that in Beiping.Not to mention military security, Wuhan is much safer than Beiping.

In addition, there are climate reasons: the problem of sandstorms in Beiping was very serious before liberation.After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Three-North Shelterbelt System was set up, and countless money was spent to solve the sandstorm, and then the smog appeared again...

The surrounding fragile ecological environment really cannot support a capital city with a population of tens of millions plus a Tianjin city of the same level.
