Chapter 470 Angelica (11)
Hearing Jiang Ningyue's words, everyone laughed.
Gordon also knew that the situation was hopeless, so he said, "I will have someone sign the agreement after I return home."
At least the person who signed this agreement cannot be him. If it were him, he would definitely not sign the agreement.
"Go ahead." Jiang Ningyue nodded.
The other representatives left contentedly, but Gordon stayed. He smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Minister Jiang, can your country guarantee my safety? Only by remaining in the presidency can I continue to contribute to peace and stability in Southeast Asia."
Jiang Ningyue replied, "We at Dongda never interfere in the internal affairs of other countries and always respect the sovereignty of other countries and the will of their people."
"I understand." Gordon nodded quickly.
Jiang Ningyue smiled and looked at Gordon and said, "Besides, President Gordon is also an 'old friend' of our Dongda University."
“I’m honored!”
Gordon also showed a bright smile on his face. With this "old friend from the University of Tokyo", he could protect his own safety in Southeast Asia.
See if that guy dares to slam the table at me!
Minister Jiang has personally admitted that he is an old friend. Could it be that Pashan is even more powerful than Minister Jiang?
Although Gordon has decided to give up the sovereignty of the two islands, the specific division of this interest still needs to be discussed within the coalition.
——
In mid-June of 1933, after the college entrance examination, Jiang Ningyue, as the honorary president of East Asia Friendship University, returned to the school and filmed a promotional video.
——
At the end of September 1933, the coalition forces issued a joint statement.
Announced that it would negotiate peace with the Kingdom of Nisi.
However, the losses of Southeast Asian countries still need to be settled.
There are rumors that the coalition forces are not planning to return the two islands currently occupied.
After receiving this news, the minority of people in the remaining three islands of Nisi immediately began demonstrations, mainly because they were afraid of being caught on the front line.
A large number of citizens on the Internet also began to protest, resolutely resisting this act of loss of rights and humiliation of the country.
Some netizens even made outrageous remarks: "Our soldiers are not all dead yet, we will never surrender."
Anyway, they don't have to go to the battlefield, so it's easy for them to talk.
At the same time, another rumor was spread.
This rumor is even more powerful and its content is very simple, that is, the rumor that Nepal will pay more than one hundred trillion (RMB) in compensation to Southeast Asian countries.
You know, even before the war, Nepal's GDP was only more than 20 trillion.
After the war, especially after the successive losses of territory, the GDP would probably be only a few trillion.
For a time, the survivors in Nepal were in a panic. Although they did not want to continue the war, if the country paid so much compensation, wouldn't Nepal's domestic economy be in a state of collapse in the next few decades?
What’s the difference between this and the destruction of a country?
How many years will it take for Nepal to pay off this debt?
Experts and scholars in Nepal have publicly stated that if the government signs this agreement, it would be equivalent to every citizen being burdened with millions of dollars in debt.
After all, the current per capita income in Nepal is only about 10,000 or 20,000 yuan.
Marches and protests have begun again in the country.
It would be better to cede the islands. Anyway, these two islands have been occupied and it is almost impossible to ask the other party to return them.
If the islands are not ceded, each person will have to bear millions of dollars in debt, and a family will have to bear millions of dollars.
This is a joke.
The Nepali government immediately came out to clarify that this was a rumor and that the negotiations between Nepali and other countries had not yet been completely concluded.
However, the public does not believe this and believes that some agreement must have been reached among the top government officials.
Those who had previously caused a lot of trouble on the Internet have begun to publicly express their agreement with the previous issue of "ceding the islands."
If you tell the people of Nisi right away that they might have to "cede land", they will definitely not agree.
However, if every citizen of Nisi were to be burdened with millions of dollars in debt, no one would be so resistant to ceding land.
After all, Nepal has also experienced this over the years. It was colonized by the Netherlands in the late 16th century and occupied by Japan in the early 18th century. Even 45 years later, it was invaded by Britain and the Netherlands, and even joined the Dutch-Indonesian Federation during this period.
Therefore, faced with the dignity of the country and the interests of the "common people", they brazenly chose the interests of the common people.
The public opinion on the Internet changed immediately, and many people even tried to escape to the "enemy-occupied area". After all, normal life had already resumed there.
The Southeast Asian countries have not made any statement, neither returning the two islands nor expressing their intention to occupy the two islands.
However, they have gradually relaxed entry and exit between the two islands.
Simply put, as long as they are not "militarists" or "war criminals", they will never stop them from leaving.
The economy and people's livelihood of the two islands have gradually stabilized.
At this time, some scholars took out history books and began to popularize history.
In 1405, overseas Chinese merchant Shi Jinqing assisted Zheng He's fleet and participated in suppressing Chen Zuyi's pirate corps. Afterward, Shi Jinqing sent his son-in-law to the Ming Dynasty to meet Emperor Chengzu. To commend Shi Jinqing for his loyalty, Emperor Chengzu bestowed upon him the title of Envoy to Jiugang.
However, this Jiugang Xuanwei Office was not a vassal state like Goryeo and Japan.
The Jiugang Xuanwei Office was a frontier military and political institution of the Ming Dynasty. It had to accept appointments from the imperial court, pay tribute regularly, and obey military dispatches. It was regarded as an "inner vassal" rather than an ordinary tributary state.
Simply put, they were once part of the Ming Dynasty, and now they miss the Ming Dynasty very much.
After all, this matter is recorded in historical documents. It is much more reasonable and well-founded than some countries or ethnic groups using the Bible to seal off their own countries, right?
The time came to May 2033.
The seven-nation coalition of Myanmar, Siam, Singapore, Cambodia, Lancang, South Vietnam and Malaysia issued a joint statement, announcing that they would conduct a "democratic investigation" in the Old Port Province and Katang Island to determine the specific division and direction of the two islands.
At this time, the people of Jiugang Province publicly petitioned, saying that their "Jiugang" was the "lost pearl" of the Ming Dynasty, and they wanted to return to the embrace of the "Ming Dynasty."
The Myanmar authorities were very angry about this incident and even sent soldiers to disperse the petitioners from Old Port Province.
However, 'Truth cannot be killed'.
The more severe the Myanmar authorities' suppression, the larger the petitioning group will be.
This incident even spread to the country, and many citizens started a petition, calling for attention to this "child" who wanted to return home.
This incident did not happen until three months later, in August 2033.
Under international pressure, Myanmar was forced to release the petitioners.
Myanmar left dejectedly, and the entire Old Hong Kong Island cheered with joy, with countless people celebrating this "great victory".
