Chapter 719 Persuading the Consul
When he received the telegram from the headquarters of the Military Control Bureau, Li Yunsheng was checking the transfer information of the Japanese army, because a field force was about to come to Tianjin for rest.

This field force belongs to the Sixteenth Division, and it is the size of a wing.

The highest officer of the alliance is called Matsushita Toichi, who has a violent temper, and the alliance led by him is also known as the Matsushita Alliance.

Because of several wars, the Panasonic United team suffered heavy losses, so they came to Tianjin to rest.

Moreover, Li Yunsheng also knew that after the Panasonic United team arrived in Tianjin, they would occupy the concession.

Because it is now the beginning of December [-], and the Japanese are about to go to war with Britain and the United States and attack the largest naval base of the United States in the Pacific Ocean.

So Li Yunsheng set his sights on the Matsushita United, because after the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese will win steadily.

It is precisely because of the successive victories that the front line is too long, so the troops are very tight.

In this way, the Panasonic United team in Tianjin may be transferred to the Pacific battlefield.

But the casualties of the Panasonic Alliance were too large, and because the fighting time was too long, they would have half a year to rest.

Not only that, some soldiers of the Panasonic Wing will retire during this rest because their service life has expired.

But after the outbreak of the war, I am afraid that the soldiers of the Matsushita United will not even think about retiring. After all, the Japanese are short of troops, so how could they let the veterans retire.

In addition, if the Panasonic United is really going to be transferred to the Pacific battlefield, there will be no time to rest. It is estimated that these retired veterans will be even more dissatisfied and should be easily agitated.

So Li Yunsheng set his sights on the Panasonic United Team, planning to use this team to make a big move.

The current Panasonic United team has not yet arrived in Tianjin, so Li Yunsheng can only calm down and wait patiently for this team to arrive in Tianjin.

Therefore, the telegram sent by the bureau made Li Yunsheng very depressed. After all, he wanted to make some big noises in the near future, so he didn't have the time to care about the lives of those foreigners.

But the tasks of the headquarters cannot be ignored, especially this task, which was ordered by Principal Chang himself, so it is natural to take some action.

However, Principal Chang's move also made Li Yunsheng helpless, and he thought bitterly in his heart, no wonder Principal Chang lost the world in the future, this situation is really too small.

In Li Yunsheng's view, as the No. [-] figure in the national government, Principal Chang is really not qualified, especially this decision is even more disappointing.

After all, this attitude of treating foreigners as masters is no different from that of the backward Manchu Qing government.

Fortunately, the bureau chief knew the difficulty of this matter, and did not issue a death order, so that the military commander's strength would not be lost too much.

Thinking of this, Li Yunsheng decided to meet an old acquaintance, that is, the British consul Robert.

Because if you want to save people, you also need the cooperation of these foreigners, so you can arrange it in advance, and the danger is much smaller.

However, Li Yunsheng made up his mind that if these foreigners were really arrogant and refused to cooperate with their own actions, he would be fine.

After making up his mind, Li Yunsheng went out alone, and then came to the Ministry of Industry Building in the public concession.

Although the current situation is tense, these foreigners will not think that the Japanese are about to go south, so the order of the Ministry of Industry is still very good.

Because of the existence of the guards, Li Yunsheng used some tricks to meet Robert.

"Mr. Li, why are you here?"

Seeing Li Yunsheng appearing suddenly, Robert was very surprised. After all, the current situation is different from before. These foreigners are no longer openly helping the Nationalist government.

Therefore, the relationship between the two parties is not as friendly as before, and even somewhat hostile.

"Mr. Robert, I came here rashly today, just to inform you that the Japanese are about to attack you!"

Li Yunsheng didn't play charades, but directly said the news, his tone was very serious, and the expression on his face was also very serious.

"Hehe, needless to say Mr. Li, I believe those Japanese monkeys would not dare to start a war against the British Empire."

Robert has already heard the news about this matter. After all, the national government has used diplomatic means to notify the ambassadors of various countries in China.

So Robert had received this news a few days ago. After all, as a consul in the concession, his status was not low, so he could naturally receive the news.

But in Robert's heart, he didn't believe this news. After all, this white man always believed that Britain was the world leader, and he would not believe that little Japan would do something to Britain.

"Mr. Robert, I have definite information that can prove that the Japanese will attack you in the near future.

Moreover, the Japanese army has begun to be transferred to the southeast coast on a large scale. "

Li Yunsheng once again emphasized the authenticity of the matter, and in order to convince Robert, he also deliberately disclosed the news of the transfer of the Japanese army.

"Hehe, Mr. Li, you are overthinking."

Robert still refused to believe it, because this person had the arrogance of a white man and also believed in the deterrent power of the United Kingdom. He firmly believed that the Japanese would not dare to provoke the United Kingdom.

As for the abnormal mobilization of the Japanese army, Robert didn't take it seriously, because in his eyes, it was just a method of blackmail by the Japanese, in order to make the British and American countries make concessions in certain aspects.

It's not that Robert is stupid, but this situation has happened more than once, so the situation is tense, and he doesn't think the two sides will go to war.

Seeing Robert's haughty look, Li Yunsheng was a little angry, and he thought bitterly in his heart, these damn white people are really arrogant, the Japanese put bayonets on their noses, and they thought that the other party would not do anything .

"Mr. Robert, are you sure that the Japanese won't do anything!"

Although I don't want to take care of these thankless things, these white people have a high value of use, so Li Yunsheng intends to persuade them, after all, it's just a matter of lip service.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan has already made some demands on our government, and they are unreasonable demands.

Therefore, the abnormal mobilization of the Japanese army should be to cooperate with their government to blackmail. This is just a simple diplomatic method. "

Robert did not lie. The Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has really made some unreasonable demands to the governments of the United Kingdom and the United States in the past few months, and its attitude is very tough.

But this time, the Japanese are just acting, the purpose is to confuse the British and American governments.

It was for this reason that the British government refused to believe the news sent by Principal Chang, thinking it was just a means of blackmail.

As soon as Robert finished speaking, Li Yunsheng sighed, thinking that it's no wonder these foreigners didn't believe the information provided by the national government.

However, the cunning of the little devils also made Li Yunsheng sigh with emotion. After all, they were able to deceive these foreigners, which was considered a skill.

"Mr. Robert, don't you just trust your own judgment so much that you are not afraid of what happens?"

Now that he knew the inside story, Li Yunsheng naturally thought of a countermeasure to persuade Robert.

After a pause, he said with malicious intent: "You have to know that there are not many troops in the Nanyang area or the concession, and the initiative of the war is in the hands of the Japanese."

As soon as Li Yunsheng finished speaking, Robert's expression finally changed, and he began to bow his head in thought.
