Diplomacy is an extension of a country's politics and military, and the strength of the military is also the root of its diplomacy. I have never heard of any country's military and diplomatic departments being in conflict. This is tantamount to involution.

"Lu Sang, it's hard to explain this question clearly. It's really hard for you or other foreigners to understand what we take for granted." Qian Tian gestured with his hands, with an anxious expression on his face, and couldn't make it clear for a while.

"The two departments are like brothers, each has its own interests, and they are entangled, right?" Lu Ming roughly understood what he meant, but he still couldn't let it go. After all, the Japanese wanted to take advantage of other countries.

"To explain this matter, we have to start with the Meiji Restoration. This country's affairs, this is a family scandal, and it's not very honorable to talk about it to the outside world." Qian Tian said with a wry smile.

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Mr. Qiantian, you can do whatever you want. I'm just curious, and I don't mean to inquire."

"It's actually not a secret, but something exposed on the surface, but outsiders can't see it. I have done research, and the US diplomatic department and military department get along better. That's because the United States is a civilian government, and the military only cares Obey the order, the national policy is formulated by the government, but this country is completely opposite." Qian Tian took a sip of his wine and smacked his lips.

"Then isn't your country going to become a military government?" Lu Ming frowned.

"There is this trend, so the government is trying its best to suppress the military, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also trying its best to fight against them to prevent them from inflating, but it seems that they can't be suppressed." Qian Tian's two hands made flipping movements .

At this time, although Japan is still a few years away from completely becoming a military government, that is, militarism, the general trend has already formed, and people with insight can see it clearly at a glance.

The two drank another bottle of champagne, ate dessert, ordered another pot of coffee, and chatted while drinking.

"Lu Sang, if some great changes happen one day, I hope we will remain friends and not become enemies." Qian Tian said suddenly.

"If Mr. Qiantian makes a bold guess, what will happen between China and Japan?" Lu Ming asked.

"It's hard to say, the international situation is unpredictable, and it's hard to say how China-Japan relations will develop in the future." Qian Tian sighed.

Both of them knew in their hearts that there must be a war between China and Japan, unless China voluntarily surrenders, in that case China may become a large North Korea.

If China fights hard, it will be a tragic war. It is inevitable that the country will be destroyed and the family will be destroyed, and the whole nation will also face the test of life and death.

Qian Tian is an absolute pacifist, he opposes any form of war, whether it is just or evil, whether it is aggression or anti-aggression.

Whether they will be friends or enemies in the future cannot be determined by the wishes of two people. Once the conflict rises to the survival of the nation, it will be life and death.

Thinking of this, both of them felt a little emotional, they didn't know what to say, and felt that such a good time was running out.

What is most unfortunate for a country is that you have a powerful and aggressive neighbor.

"Lu Sang, please believe that we Japanese are not all warlike. On the contrary, most of us Japanese are peace-loving, and those who instigate war are just a small group." Qian Tian beat him lightly with his fist Get off the table.

"I believe that the people all want peace and no one is keen on war. Once a war starts, ordinary people are just the ghosts of cannon fodder and bombs. In the last European war, 6500 million people participated in the war and 1000 million people lost their lives. , 2000 million people were injured." Lu Ming carefully checked the historical materials of the First World War in the United States.

"I'm also very worried. If there is another war like this that affects the whole world, the last European war was just a prelude to this one. All the machines in this country are making guns and ships day and night. What's wrong with it?" Qian said. Tian said in despair.

Qian Tian has seen the crisis. The Japanese military has been inciting and coercing public opinion to put pressure on the government and foreign affairs departments, and even put pressure on the emperor, in order to activate the war button.

Under the strong public opinion, the public lost their judgment and changed from being coerced to restless. Japanese society has entered a stage of fever.

At this time, Beethoven's "Fifth Symphony" played on the record player in the restaurant. Both of them were deeply shocked by the exciting and ups and downs of the music. They didn't speak for a long time and drank their bitter coffee.

After Lu Ming settled the bill, the two walked out of the restaurant, when a car with the license plate of the Japanese consulate stopped in front of the restaurant.

"Lu Sang, please don't be surprised. In order to ensure your safety, I let the consulate's car wait here in advance." Qiantian explained.

"Okay, thank you Kentian-kun."

The two got into the car together, first sent Lu Ming to the detective office, and then Qian Tian went back to the consulate.

After Lu Ming returned to the detective office, he sat at the table and fell into deep thought, recalling the conversation with Qian Tian, ​​slowly chewing on the deep meaning contained in these words.

What Qian Tian said unintentionally actually reflected many problems, some of which were thought of by Lu Ming a long time ago, and some of which were really heard for the first time.

What makes an excellent intelligence officer beyond ordinary people is mainly in the way of thinking and the ability to see things and infer other things from one instance.

Newspapers, magazines and news broadcasts, and even the conversations of citizens on the street, are effective sources of intelligence.

What intelligence personnel need is a strong ability to analyze, summarize, summarize and even predict, instead of always taking risks to go deep into the tiger's den to steal top-secret information.

The fire in the fireplace had already burnt out, and Lu Ming lit the firewood again to warm up the room.

Cold can keep people awake, but it can also slow down people's thinking ability.

The detective office in the afternoon was very quiet, and he kept meditating until the evening. Then he slowly sorted out his thoughts and had some clear thoughts, and thus came to a conclusion that he was afraid of: the Japanese military might want to act without authorization, and the target of the action should be Either Northeast or Shanghai.

He doesn't know much about the situation in the Northeast, but he also knows that the Northeast is under the effective control of the Northeast Army of Young Marshal Zhang Xueliang.

After the Huanggutun incident that shocked the whole country happened, people from all walks of life suspected that it was the black hands of the young officers of the Japanese Kwantung Army, but unfortunately there was no conclusive evidence.

But this enmity has been forged. If the Japanese want to take action in the Northeast, aren't they afraid of the resistance of the hundreds of thousands of Northeast Army and young commander Zhang Xueliang?

Do the Japanese want to create a Huanggutun incident in Shanghai?But who will the target be?What is the purpose?

After the founding of the Republic of China, Shanghai was designated as a special city, and the interests of the British, American, German, French, European and American powers in China were all involved.

If the Japanese military came to Shanghai to step on mines, it would mean a showdown with European and American powers, and in the end, even the fig leaf under the crotch would be torn off.

Since last year, the economic crisis that has spread to the whole world has caused the global Great Depression. As an emerging industrial country, Japan has been hit hard. For the time being, it does not have the strength to take the risk of launching an all-out war against China, let alone against European and American powers.

However, in order to resist recession, maintain high-speed economic growth, and then dominate Asia, the possibility of Japan launching a predatory war is rising sharply.

Isn't this what Teacher Flender reminded him?A teacher is a teacher, and he stands tall.Lu Ming, who had been suppressed for a long time, slammed the table!

This beat made the phone ring, Lu Ming picked up the phone to answer it, and Yan Xiaohui's voice came from inside.
