"...Why?"

He Yingqin was stunned for two seconds, then he understood. Fujiwara Kanezane was trying to recruit him!

Want him to be a Han... cough cough cough...

To be honest, for a moment, He Yingqin was very tempted, but soon hesitated.

That’s right, it’s still the word “traitor”.

For ordinary people who can't read a single word, whether they are traitors or not is too far away from them. They will follow whoever treats them well.

But for the "intellectuals" who already have a certain sense of national consciousness and state consciousness at this moment, the lethality of these two words is a bit too great.

As long as there is even a shred of shame, no one would dare to openly become a traitor. Even if they did, they would definitely find a fig leaf like Master Wang to "save the country in a roundabout way";

Although I was selling out my country and becoming a traitor, how can you say I was being a traitor? This was clearly "analyzing the power gap between China and Japan in light of the current situation and finding the most suitable path to save the country at the moment"!

You ignorant people, do not "resist the Japanese" or "save the nation" without our permission!

So, how could He Yingqin dare to agree to Fujiwara no Kanezane's request? "I am very grateful for your kindness, Your Highness, but..."

"General He, please don't rush to refuse. Serving a more powerful country doesn't necessarily mean you have to join it directly, right?"

"This... Your Highness..."

"Since I have already arrived in the Northeast, Manchukuo is destined to gain a firm foothold. No matter who of you comes to cause trouble, it will be in vain in the end."

Fujiwara no Kanezane spoke a series of self-confident words without asking He Yingqin to answer:

"Manchukuo will definitely become powerful, so we need a large number of talents. Talent is the most valuable asset of the 21st... 20th century. Do you understand?"

"temple..."

"General He, I'm afraid you don't know yet? Gu Weijun, Mr. Gu, is in Northeast China right now. Why do you think he didn't return to Peking with the investigation team, but stayed here instead?"

"I..."

"Manchukuo needs talents not only in administration and military, but also in the hidden forces lurking within the enemy's organizations. We also need them most, don't you agree?"

"As long as you are willing to join Manchukuo, I will take you to meet Her Majesty the Empress. You will definitely have the position of the future military commander of Manchukuo. I can also let you meet His Majesty the Emperor and ask for Japanese citizenship for you."

"This is the first time I've asked to recruit Chinese people. General He, please don't let me down."

"...Your Highness." "Hmm?"

"What do you need from me?"

,

woohoo...

The "He-Teng Agreement" can be released.

317 The Birth of the Thunder King

He Yingqin, filled with joy, also left the "Imperial Palace" after agreeing to a lot of conditions from Fujiwara no Kanezane.

According to convention, it will probably take ten days or half a month before new information is fed back this time.

Anyway, it was just a casual move. Whether He Yingqin would become his "inside supporter" was not important at all. Therefore, the King of Northeast China was not in a hurry. He took a sip of tea and said leisurely:

"You two, come out!" "...Your Highness..."

"Brother..."

Two figures, one large and one small, emerged from the inner room, both with complicated expressions. "Mr. Wang, Chongren, why are you looking at me like that?" Fujiwara Kanezane waved his finger at Chen Li and Chongren.

"Okay, come sit down after you're done listening. If you have any questions, just ask. I have other things to do after you're done."

Chen Geng was stunned for just a few seconds before coming to his senses. He seemed unconcerned that his country was being "betrayed" by both the Japanese invaders and the Kuomintang. He sat down on the chair with a smile on his face.

"There's nothing wrong with me."

By the way, the CCP members these days are really magical creatures. In just one or two months, Chen Kang has almost completely learned Japanese.

Fujiwara Kanezane nodded and looked at the other person:

"Oh, what about you?"

"Brother, are you really planning to cooperate with the Kuomintang?" Chongren had a look of disgust on his face, and it was obvious that he did not have a good impression of He Yingqin.

It’s normal to think about it. Traitors and traitors are unwelcome in most countries, let alone an idealist like Chongren.

Fujiwara Kanezane curled his lips:

"Just try to fool them, but do you really take it seriously? How can we build the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere if we're hanging out with these idiots?"

"...You're saying that people like that can't possibly become a force for building the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere..."

After hearing this, Chongren breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he was almost 17 years old and had already understood that in political activities, he sometimes had to use some tactics and flatter people he disliked, but he was only 17 years old after all;

He felt really uncomfortable hanging out with losers like the Kuomintang.

.

Fujiwara Kanezane glanced at Chen Geng, who rolled his eyes, meaning:

How come your Japanese royal family has produced so many "talents"?

There actually came a young man who truly believed in the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere".

With this innocent boy, Chen Ying was very confident that he could develop him into a party member within half a year.

I'd better find time to arrange a few grievance meetings for him. The innocent boy is still curious:

"Brother, why were all the conditions you proposed to them signed in the name of Manchukuo? Is it because it's difficult for us Japanese to interfere? Also, why don't they object? Isn't Manchukuo recognized by them?"

"You have so many questions. I'll answer them one by one..."

After Fujiwara no Kanezane had dealt with the two and sent them back to the barracks to prepare for the upcoming war, he finally had a break when the agent walked in.

"Commander, another person claiming to be Chiang Kai-shek's special envoy has arrived. He is..."

Damn Jiang Baldy, are you free?

No matter how much he cursed in his heart, Fujiwara no Kanezane still received the third "Chiang Kai-shek's special envoy."

I have no other thoughts, I'm just curious about what's going on. It's actually this person?

"Yang Yongtai, right?" "Hey? Your Highness knows me?"

Yang Yongtai was surprised when his name was accurately called out, he was wanted nationwide, and he finally ran to the Northeast. He carefully observed and sorted out for a long time before deciding to meet Fujiwara Kanezane.

"Haha, of course I know you! Chairman Chiang's chief advisor..." Fujiwara no Kanezane tilted his head.

"However, I heard that Chairman Chiang Kai-shek abandoned you because of your plot to assassinate Li Jishen. How did you become his special envoy?"

Hearing this, a trace of hatred and unwillingness flashed in Yang Yongtai's eyes, and he said calmly: "Your Highness, first of all, I want to apologize to you. I lied to you."

"Aren't you Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's special envoy?"

"Yes and no."

Seeing that Fujiwara no Kanezane had no intention of asking further questions, Yang Yongtai had to stop keeping the secret and took the initiative to explain:

"He did ask me to come to you with some conditions, hoping to discuss them with you, but I personally no longer want to work for him."

"Oh? I see. So, you're planning to abandon Chiang Kai-shek and join me?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Yang Yongtai bowed deeply and said:

"If Your Highness is willing to take me in, I will die for you!"

Wuhu, another one has come to seek refuge. Oh, these days...

Fujiwara Kanezane did not immediately express his opinion, but just looked at Yang Yongtai indifferently. After a long while, he softly uttered a few words:

"Mr. Yang, you should know what kind of person Lü Bu Lü Fengxian is, right?"

As mentioned earlier, Yang Yongtai had turned to so many people - Sun Yat-sen, Tang Jiyao, Duan Qirui, Mo Rongxin... He also tried to turn to Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi but was rejected by them. Finally, he chose Chiang Kai-shek.

Therefore, there is no doubt that what Fujiwara no Kanezane said was equivalent to pointing at Yang Yongtai's nose and calling him a "slave of three families...ahem...a slave of three families."

However, despite being insulted like this, Yang Yongtai responded calmly, as if he had expected it.

"Your Highness, Lü Fengxian was a valiant warrior throughout his life, unrivaled in his time. He was known as 'Red Hare among horses, Lü Bu among men'. This saying is still heard today, and he truly deserves to be called a hero."

"But after all, he surrendered and then rebelled again, killing his master and betraying the enemy. Even if he were a hero, who would dare to use him?"

"A king might dare to use him." "Even Cao Cao wouldn't dare to use him." "Meng De is not a king."

"Lord Xuande also suggested killing Lü Bu."

"Lord Xuande is but a local separatist force, yet he has the audacity to claim the title of king, and even usurp the title of emperor. How dare he resist, and how could he resist a world-class hero like Lü Fengxian? Since he cannot be resisted, the only option is to kill him."

"Who dares to control it? Who can control it?" "The emperor who has the world in his heart dares to control it and can control it." "Control it for what?"

"To unify the world, to create a great cause that will last forever."

At this point, the room was silent for a while.

A smile slowly appeared on Fujiwara Kanezane's face, and he extended his hand: "Sir, please take a seat."

Yang Yongtai also smiled and sat down in his seat with confidence: "Thank you, Your Highness."

The atmosphere suddenly became much better.

The meaning of their conversation just now was roughly as follows:

Fujiwara no Kanezane called Yang Yongtai a traitor like Lu Bu. Yang Yongtai said that he was the god-like Lu Bu, and that only a true emperor could control such a top talent.

Is this a compliment to Yang Yongtai himself? No, it is actually a compliment to Fujiwara no Kanezane.

Flattery!

Flattery from a smart person sounds much better than the stupid words from a fool.

Moreover, Yang Yongtai directly pointed out Fujiwara no Kanezane's so-called "ambition":

You want to be an emperor, you want to unify the world, and you want to create great achievements.

In fact, Fujiwara no Kanezane, who had no intention of "unifying the world", had no intention of correcting Yang Yongtai's cognitive limitations. He asked his agent to serve him a cup of good tea, and then asked with a smile:

"Sir, you didn't just arrive in the Northeast today, did you?" "To be honest, Your Highness, I've been in the Northeast for some time."

Thinking that his plan was more than half successful, Yang Yongtai began to speak more casually:

"The reason I didn't come to see His Highness immediately was that I traveled around the Northeast to observe and confirm that His Highness had the appearance of an emperor before I dared to come to see him."

"Oh? Why do you confirm that I am the emperor?"

"I have read all the orders and policies issued by Your Highness, and I am certain that Your Highness treats all the people of Northeast China, whether Japanese, Chinese, Han, or Manchu, equally and as if they were your own children. If this is not an emperor, then what is an emperor?"

Yang Yongtai continued to flatter:

"Only an emperor can be so tolerant and inclusive, and only an emperor can be so benevolent and wise, and not lose the way of heaven. Therefore, I firmly believe that Your Highness is the emperor."

"But I'm Japanese."

"Why do you say that, Your Highness?"

Yang Yongtai looked surprised:

"Your understanding and recognition of Chinese culture far exceeds that of the vast majority of Chinese people today. How can you say that the Japanese are making fun of you?"

"Oh? But in Chinese culture, this kind of behavior would be called 'traitor,' right?"

Yang Yongtai's expression became unnatural for a moment, and he defended himself:

"Your Highness, in my opinion, whether someone is a traitor or not is just a self-defined definition by the world and is not worth mentioning."

"How to say?"

"If we can make our country strong and our people live and work in peace and contentment, what can we do about the Japanese? If we, as the Nationalist government, bring humiliation to our country and make our people miserable, what can we do about the Chinese?"

Yang Yongtai raised his chin slightly:

"In my opinion, the orthodoxy of a country lies in whether it can strengthen the country and its military, protect its borders and its people, and avoid foreign aggression. It lies in whether the people can have food in their homes, oil in their bellies, and light in their eyes. It does not lie in the limitations of ethnicity or region."

Fujiwara no Kanezane was slightly dismayed.

Wow, this level of cognition...

It’s almost the same as the last time he fooled Gu Weijun.

Whether Yang Yongtai really thought so or said these words deliberately after analyzing his own preferences, it is certain that he is indeed talented.
