Lin Yuan was very surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Wan Qing, how did you know about this?"

Shen Wanqing raised the newspaper in her hand and said, "I saw it from the newspaper!"

Lin Yuan raised his brows and said angrily, "What happened yesterday was published in the newspaper today? Which newspaper? Didn't I say that there will be wartime news control? Why are there still newspapers reporting it?" this matter?"

"Wartime news control" is a common method used by various countries to manage news reports during wars. Under this control system, all news related to war must be submitted to relevant departments for review before it can be released.

Shen Wanqing said: "I asked, this news was published with Tang Fan's permission."

Lin Yuan slammed the table and said angrily, "Why is Tang Fan so confused? How can such news be published in newspapers?"

"Why can't this kind of news be published in the newspaper? Doesn't it just make the people of the whole country feel the same hatred?" Shen Wanqing didn't understand Lin Yuan's statement, and asked suspiciously.

"When the public knows about this, it will put enormous pressure on the military and the government, forcing me to make non-optimal decisions. For example, the public wants the two pilots to go home as soon as possible, but the conditions for the British prisoner exchange are very strict. It's harsh, I can't agree as soon as possible, what do you think I should do? Under the pressure of public opinion, I have to agree to harsh conditions." Lin Yuan said solemnly.

Shen Wanqing let out an "oh", and silently stopped talking, Lin Yuan shook her head and said, "Okay, let's not talk about that, tell me what you want from me, shall we?"

Shen Wanqing replied: "I want to tell you that today all kinds of newspapers are overwhelmingly writing that the two pilots must be rescued as soon as possible, especially the girl named 'Lin Wanying' has become the focus of public attention. Those veterans of the Qing court also brought out the remarks that 'starving to death is a small matter of injustice, but a big one', it seems that the kind of public opinion pressure you mentioned has already formed."

"Okay, I see, I will handle this matter properly." Lin Yuan said, "By the way, have the parents of the two pilots been found?"

Shen Wanqing replied: "I found it. Liu Yunguang's parents are both dead, and Lin Wanying's parents are still alive."

"Okay then, send someone to bring Lin Wanying's parents here. I'm going to do something close to the people at this time." Lin Yuan said.

"No problem, I'll send someone to take them to your place as soon as possible." Shen Wanqing replied.

Lin Yuan turned off the communicator, completely exhausted. At this time, the attendant came in and reported: "Shuai Lin, we have contacted Estero, and he promised to change the prisoners. The special envoy is rushing over, and it is expected to be three hours. Then I can rush to the Beijing ship."

Lin Yuan said "OK", and then said, "I'll go to sleep for a while, and wake me up when the special envoy comes." The attendant agreed, and Lin Yuan fell asleep. I don't know how much time passed. Wake up and tell Lin Yuan that the special envoy has arrived in the reception room, and Lin Yuan immediately goes to the reception room.

The attendant pushed open the hatch of the reception room, and the scene in front of him stunned him for a moment. He saw two Chinese with black hair and black eyes sitting in the reception room. Why is Estero's special envoy Chinese?Lin Yuan suddenly remembered the Japanese mercenaries in the British army, and thought that they might be Japanese, so he asked the attendant, "Are they Japanese?"

The attendant shook his head solemnly and said, "No, they are not Japanese, they are genuine Chinese."

Lin Yuan frowned, and said suspiciously: "In this era, how come there are still Chinese who are traitors and foreign slaves to the British?"

When Lin Yuan just crossed, the streets were full of traitors and foreign slaves, but when China became stronger, there were far fewer traitors and foreign slaves. What happened when Lin Yuan liberated Southeast Asia is a clear proof. Southeast Asia is the place with the most Chinese. , basically no Chinese people took refuge in the local colonists.

At this time, the Communists seemed to see Lin Yuan's doubts and dissatisfaction, and the older one stepped up to Lin Yuan and said apologetically, "Mr. Lin Yuan, we are not traitors and foreign slaves, we are Chinese, I want to go back to China and return to your rule, but our wives and children are under the control of the British. We have no choice but to work for them, but we are only here to negotiate for them, so it shouldn’t be counted. A traitor?"

Feeling ashamed, Lin Yuan said a few polite words, and then divided the guests and hosts into seats. The older Chinese said: "My surname is Zheng, and my name is Chuanhao. He is my assistant and my nephew. Our name is Zheng Kaize, we are the descendants of Lord Guo, living in Australia, and working as errands in the British government."

The "National Lord" is the national hero Zheng Chenggong. The descendants of the national hero actually served in the British government, which made Lin Yuan secretly sigh. He frowned slightly and said, "You can come to negotiate on behalf of Eastrow. Isn’t it a small job?”

Zheng Chuanhao smiled reluctantly, and said: "I am a senior adviser to the Australian government, and I am quite prestigious among the local Chinese, but I have not given any harm to the British against China. The British usually only ask us some questions about China. historical and cultural stuff."

"Mr. Zheng Chuanhao, you don't have to bother to explain, I understand you, you are not a traitor foreign slave, let's start negotiations." Lin Yuan said.

"Okay, Lin Shuai, please allow me to call you that, right?" Zheng Chuanhao timidly looked at Lin Yuan with an inquiring look, Lin Yuan nodded, Zheng Chuanhao then said: "Then thank you Lin Yuan Alright, Lin Shuai, I'm not talking nonsense, I'll just talk about Estero's conditions, Estero agrees to exchange prisoners with you, but Estero made a special point, that is, he wants to exchange the two pilots, You have to pay something."

Lin Yuan said solemnly: "It doesn't matter how much the price is, I will pay Estero whatever it is."

Zheng Chuanhao smiled wryly, shook his head and said, "It's not about money. Estero and the Australian government won't ask for money."

"That's right, it's useless to ask for money, so what does Estero want?" Lin Yuan asked.

Zheng Chuanhao hesitated for a long time, and then said: "Estero wants you to produce a Wuzhi II, a carrier-based I, and an Air Superior I."

Lin Yuan's complexion suddenly changed, and he said angrily, "Why didn't Estero tell me to take the Canghai Ship out together?"

Zheng Chuanhao said sadly: "Shuai Lin, you don't have to treat me like this, I'm just a messenger."

Lin Yuan said "Sorry", and then said: "Estero must know that I will not accept such a price. He must have a bottom line price. Since you are Chinese, tell me the bottom line price."
