Chapter 3508
Most of the guests present were political figures from various countries, and they still had some insight. Of course, they would not simply think that Haihan's purpose of sending troops to intervene in other countries' civil wars was just out of good intentions and to save the common people caught in the flames of war.
The two "successful examples" of Annam and North Korea mentioned by Yan Chujie may sound like close allies to Haihan, but everyone knows that they are actually vassal states that take orders from Haihan. The control Haihan exerted over it was achieved through military intervention in the country's internal disputes.
The so-called justice is just the self-promotion of the victor after the battle. The loser is certainly not qualified to be the incarnation of justice. The actual situation is that in these civil wars, the side selected and supported by Haihan will become the ultimate winner.
Although it is not yet known which country Haihan is referring to that is about to break out into civil war, the guests present all thought of one thing - the ruling group they represent must be in the same camp as Haihan. .
Needless to say, representatives of countries with more intense internal disputes have begun to sweat on their backs, and every word Yan Chujie speaks seems to be naming his own name.
Even those countries whose domestic situation is relatively stable do not dare to ensure that they are not within this scope. You must know that with Haihan's strength, it is not unprecedented to trigger conflicts or even civil wars in other countries.
Officials from Champa, Cambodia and other countries participating in the meeting expressed their willingness to unconditionally trust Haihan's judgment and position in handling such incidents.
These small countries in the South China Sea have good relations with Haihan, and taking the lead to express their opinions can be regarded as an approach to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. However, they also knew that their country's international status was not high, so they did not even try to ask which country Yan Chujie was talking about.
The first person to raise the question was the Portuguese. When turmoil broke out in Kyushu last year, Portuguese shops in Nagasaki were also affected to a certain extent, and the news had already spread back from the local area.
However, the battle at that time was only within the scope of Kyushu, and Japan's isolation policy did not allow the outside world to know much about it. Therefore, not many countries outside the region know the situation in Japan so far.
When Yan Chujie mentioned that a large-scale civil war might occur in a certain country in the near future, the first thing Simang and Thomas thought of was Japan. Simang then asked Yan Chujie whether the country he mentioned was Japan.
From Portugal's standpoint, Simang doesn't have to worry about Haihan causing civil war in his country, so he won't be as scrupulous as other countries.
What Yan Chujie was waiting for was the question raised by Xi Mang, so that he could lead to the next discussion in a logical manner.
"Sir Simang guessed it right, it is Japan."
Yan Chujie said in a deep voice: "Although Japan is a very closed country and may not have established diplomatic relations with many countries here, we cannot ignore its existence. The disputes that occurred in the Kyushu region of Japan last year have affected countries including our country. Local interests of some countries ”
"Some people may have noticed that Japan did not appear in our venue. That is because we intentionally did not invite them to attend the meeting, otherwise we might not be able to openly discuss their issues." After Yan Chujie pointed it out, many people remembered this. I haven’t seen any Japanese with weird hairstyles in the venue for two days.
At this time, someone asked: "Master Yan, is the situation really as serious as you said? If your country invites them to Zhoushan, and then all countries come together to mediate, is it possible to eliminate the dispute?"
After Yan Chujie listened, he briefly introduced the domestic situation in Japan and the background of both sides of the confrontation. Of course, he didn't mention a word about Haihan's role in this.
Yan Chujie said: "Rather than eliminating the dispute, what is more likely to appear in front of us is that they directly use Zhoushan as a battlefield and start a fight in front of our eyes."
Most of the people present did not know that Shi Diwen had initiated the civil war in Japan. Now that Haihan was waiting for the right time for it to break out, he had no intention of promoting peace and talks.
If the two opposing parties are really brought to the forum to confront each other, it may cause complications and make Shi Diwen's previous efforts in vain. Such "risks" must naturally be avoided as much as possible.
Among the guests present, probably only the Portuguese were vaguely aware of Haihan's intentions. After all the troubles in Kyushu last year, there were only a few strong vassals close to Kaihan left in the area. The Port of Nagasaki, which was originally under the direct jurisdiction of the Tokugawa shogunate, has also been separated from the control of the shogunate.
It can be said that the entire Kyushu region has formed a de facto state of separatism, but Kyushu may not be able to satisfy the ambitions of these daimyo, and the shogunate cannot sit back and watch the betrayal of local forces. The possibility of a war breaking out next is indeed very high.
Simang didn't know how much of a driving role Haihan played in this process, but he was certain that Haihan would never think about the Japanese. What has happened in the past few years has fully proved that Haihan has no good impression of this country at all, and his hatred is very obvious.
Regarding the statement that the Japanese would regard Zhoushan as a battlefield, Ximang agreed very much. He has also visited Japan many times, had a lot of contact with the locals, and has some understanding of their unscrupulous style of doing things.
If people from Kyushu and the shogunate meet in Zhoushan, they will probably only have one idea - as long as they kill their opponents, they will naturally be able to temporarily cut off the channels for help from Haihan.
But Simang still doesn't understand at this moment. Whether Haihan wants to sell arms to the Japanese or plans to support Kyushu forces to deal with the shogunate, as long as he does it on his own, no one should be able to stop him. But what purpose does it serve to publish it specifically at an international exchange venue like the Zhoushan Forum, and to consult all countries for their opinions?
Yan Chujie did not rush to announce the answer, but patiently consulted the opinions of many countries. It seemed that he really cared about the opinions of various countries on this matter.
But unfortunately, most countries have little friendship with Japan. After thinking about it, it seems that they can't get any actual benefits from it, and there is no need to offend Haihan or other countries for this. Therefore, their positions are relatively vague, and they obviously intend to wait and see. .
"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. Regarding the real situation in Japan and which side represents justice, I don't think we can easily make judgments here. I think the most reasonable way is for each country to send personnel as soon as possible Form an observation team to go to Japan to verify for yourself what is right and what is wrong, and then decide how to mediate.”
Yan Chujie's words actually made the people present feel even more confused - we have little to do with Japan, why should we go all the way to join in the fun?
Yan Chujie tried his best and finally revealed the answer: "In the past few years, both sides of the Japanese civil war have purchased a large amount of weapons and equipment from our country. There should be many people who want to see with their own eyes how effective these weapons and equipment are in actual combat. Effectiveness, this is an excellent opportunity!”
