Chapter 2308
Alliances and mutual assistance between countries are of course not based on loyalty, but on real interests.Li Yan may not have understood this truth before, but after studying abroad in Haihan for a year, he already has a deep feeling for it.
One of the main purposes of Li Yi's study abroad is to learn from Haihan's advanced experience in governing the country and fundamentally change the status quo of North Korea. Therefore, he spent a lot of time researching Haihan's history of prosperity and international relations, trying to find a suitable one. The way the country develops.
Li Yan soon realized that North Korea would not be able to learn the advanced technologies that Haihan had mastered. Even if Haihan was willing to teach, most of them would not be able to be implemented in North Korea, which has no foundation.However, Haihan's skills in handling international relations and the way of building an international alliance centered on himself seem to be a reference for North Korea.In particular, the Annan Kingdom and the Fujian Xu family, which grew rapidly under the support of Haihan, are suitable targets for North Korea to emulate.
However, after studying the history of these two alliances with Haihan, Li Yan discovered that the price they paid for the alliance was not small at all. An Nanguo contributed a large number of people and many natural seaports to Haihan, Fujian Xu's It is Haihan who has purchased a large amount of arms from Haihan for ten years, and helped Haihan open up commercial channels in the inland area of Ming Dynasty. He is one of Haihan's most important trading partners.
To put it simply, the help and support these two families received from Haihan was in exchange for a lot of benefits.This approach is actually similar to the conditions North Korea agreed to when it asked Haihan for help in the war last year. North Korea allocated almost the entire middle and lower reaches of the Datong River to Haihan as a special development zone after the war, and promised to open trade after the war.If not, Haihan might not have been willing to give North Korea a hand when the Qing army invaded last year.
Therefore, even if it is an alliance, if there is no actual benefit, it may not be able to get timely help from allies in times of crisis.This time there was an accident in Seoul, the Haihan army stopped when they reached the mouth of the Han River, and kept watching the situation. Although there were all kinds of reasons that sounded reasonable, Li Yi still vaguely felt that the Haihan army should not see the rabbits and not spread the eagles. It is to wait for one party to come up with enough benefits before deciding on a position.
Although the two of Qian and Wang shouted very affectionately in front of their faces, but if someone offered all the benefits that Hai Han wanted, it was hard to say whether their position would still be so stable.Therefore, Li Yan didn't dare to procrastinate. After he had a general understanding of what happened and the current situation, he took the initiative to make a request, hoping that the Haihan Army could take military measures to intervene in this mess as soon as possible.
Of course, at the same time, Li Yi was also mentally prepared for the Haihan people to speak loudly.On the way back to the country, he had repeatedly calculated the pros and cons of the pros and cons, and believed that the top priority was to regain the royal power as soon as possible. Even if Hai Han's request was exaggerated, as long as he could help him put down the chaos, he could agree first.
Wang Tom and Qian Tiandun looked at each other, as if they were exchanging opinions on Li Yi's statement, but the tacit understanding between them was excellent, and they had reached a consensus without opening their mouths to communicate.
Wang Tom said in a deep voice: "My son, please rest assured that our allies are in trouble. Naturally, our country will not stand idly by and will definitely help your country return to normal. But..."
Hearing this sentence, Li Yan thought in his heart that this was the main topic, and quickly pricked up his ears to listen carefully to what Tom Wang was going to say next.
Then I heard Wang Tom continue to say: "...The news in Seoul is not good, and our military operations will inevitably take great risks, so I have to ask Sanya again. If the Executive Committee nods, then we will start here." action."
Li Yan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this. He thought that it had been a month since the incident happened, and he had already returned to North Korea. Why did he have to ask Sanya for instructions again? Isn't this a waste of time?
But he immediately understood that the Haihan people had kicked the ball to him again, and he had to take the initiative to offer benefits, otherwise it would be difficult to say how long it would take to ask for instructions.At that time, it was said that Sanya needed a meeting of the executive committee to study it, and it might have been delayed for another ten days and a half month.
No matter how the situation eventually develops, the next king of North Korea will definitely have to ask Haihan to continue the current diplomatic relations and cooperation projects. Therefore, Haihan people do not need to worry at all. Then come out and stand in line.But Li Yan can't afford it, the longer it drags on, the more variable it will be, and a few days later, maybe the edict of the late king's abdication will be released, and by then his son will become a deposed son, and it will not be so justifiable if he wants to restore the country and quell the chaos up.
If Li Xuan wanted to ask Haihan to send troops to act immediately, he could only offer enough benefits.Immediately, he offered up the conditions he had said to Shi Diwen in Zhoushan before, saying that he could open the immigration restrictions that Haihan had always been thinking about after the matter was over, and he would bear all the expenses of the Haihan army during this period .
This is basically the most meaningful condition for Haihan that Li Yi can think of at the moment. If the royal power can be regained, it is acceptable to lose some population in the short term. Haihan's influence may also be improved a lot because of this - Li Yan can only comfort himself with such a reason now.
Li Yan watched Tom Wang's expression carefully while talking, but the other party didn't show any joy after hearing this, which made Li Yan faintly worried about whether the exchange terms he offered could really impress the other party.
Wang Tom said: "Your Majesty may have misunderstood some of our country's previous attitudes. Our country's proposal of population mobility is to facilitate the normal exchanges between the two countries, such as trade, study, work, etc., and it is not a one-way immigration. Now there are also many Haihan people who have settled in your country for a long time, don’t they?”
Tom Wang's words were very tactful, but Li Yi already understood what the other party wanted to express-this condition is not enough!
After the end of the Anti-Qing war last year, it is true that a large number of Haihan people flooded into North Korea to engage in various trade activities. So far, there are at least a thousand Haihan people who have lived in Seoul for a long time. This number must greatly exceed that of North Korea. Therefore, at this stage, as Wang Tom said, in terms of population flow, North Korea is actually the one that currently maintains a surplus.
Of course, this is under the circumstance that North Korea has set up immigration restrictions. If these restrictions are relaxed in accordance with Haihan's request in the future, the situation may change drastically.
Given the conditions of the Haihan Kingdom, it is not difficult to absorb a large number of immigrants from North Korea, which has a relatively poor living environment. The net outflow of people after the restrictions are lifted is estimated to be tens of thousands.Li Jing is aware of this possibility, so he has been biting this point and not letting go.But the current situation does not allow Li Yan to continue to treat this issue with a tough attitude, but he did not expect that after he made a concession, General Haihan said that the weight of this condition was not enough. They are satisfied.
As for the issue of North Korea's military expenditure during the anti-insurgency operation, Wang Tom didn't mention it at all. He obviously felt that there was no need to discuss this issue. part of the quid pro quo.
Li Yan took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and then said to Tom Wang: "If General Wang has any requests, you might as well just ask them directly, and I will try my best to satisfy them!"
Wang Tom said: "It's not a request, but we have a few suggestions, I hope the prince can consider it."
Tom Wang said it politely, but Li Yan understood that the other party had already prepared the terms of exchange, and he never offered to offer them. He probably wanted to force him step by step until he had nowhere to go before offering the terms, so that he could succeed. The chances are naturally increased.
Li Yan secretly groaned in his heart, knowing that he would still be no match for shrewd old foxes like Haihan, but at this moment he had no choice but to bite the bullet and charge forward.
"I also ask General Wang to give me some advice!" Li Yan didn't dare to neglect, and quickly responded.
Wang Tom said: "The sudden coup in your country this time, we believe that the main reason is the lack of effective internal supervision measures and insufficient defense against careerists. Combined with the historical situation of your country in the past 200 years, various The recurring coup d'état may also affect some people's thinking, thinking that this is a way to achieve a change of kingship. Calming chaos is something to be done now, but to fundamentally eliminate this phenomenon, we think it is necessary to Further steps are to be taken.”
"We are going to assist your country to set up a special internal regulatory agency after the war to be responsible for this matter, to conduct long-term monitoring of officials at all levels and the movements of the people, and to deal with them as soon as possible after discovering signs of this, without having to report to the court first. Report, to prevent any ambitious person from challenging the normal method of royal inheritance. Of course, to do this, this institution must have a relatively high level of authority, and it is best to only be loyal to the king himself."
Li Yan thought to himself, kill first and play later, the imperial power franchise, isn't this the Ming Dynasty's Jinyiwei yamen?Although North Korea also has a secret armed organization loyal to the king, it does not have the authority to act freely.
Li Yan responded: "Is the power of this organization too great? Once it gets out of control, no one can stop them!"
"We have also considered this issue." Wang Tom explained unhurriedly: "In addition to royal power, there are other forces that can restrict this institution. Therefore, its composition is not only your country's officials, but our country will also send special personnel Participate in the daily operation of this institution to ensure that it will not use its power to do something that is not in the interest of your country."
After hearing this, Li Yan understood that the Ganqing Haihan people wanted to put this privileged organization under their own control. Even if this organization is loyal to the King of Korea, all information must be shared with Haihan, even in daily life. When operating and taking actions, you need to obey the officials stationed in Haihan.
This is by no means good news. Even if Li Yan doesn’t understand information security, he also knows that by doing so, Haihan enjoys greater privileges in his country. Some matters that are inconvenient to be handled by Haihan’s garrison may be handled by Haihan’s garrison in the future. This agency is in charge.
Tom Wang saw that Li Yan was silent, so he continued: "I know that my son must have a lot of doubts about this, and I will worry that our country will use this institution to engage in activities that are not conducive to your country. But I can assure you, this kind of worry is unnecessary. Yes, the officials stationed by our country are only responsible for liaison and communication between the two countries, and will not participate in specific operations. As for the command, of course it will remain in the hands of the king of your country."
Li Yan forced a smile on his face and said: "I don't doubt your country's good intentions. If it can prevent all kinds of disobedience after its establishment, that would be the best."
Will Haihan honestly send only a few liaison officers to this institution?Li Yan didn't believe the promise Tom Wang said at all.Although he still doesn't know what rules Haihan has planned for this organization, one thing is obvious. General Haihan specifically raised this matter at this moment, obviously as part of the exchange conditions. The weight even surpassed the abolition of immigration restrictions proposed by Li Yan. Haihan will definitely exert influence in this institution in the future to safeguard his own interests.
But believe it or not, Li Yan was powerless to refuse Wang Tom's proposal. Even if he knew it was a poison, he could only swallow it with his eyes closed.At the moment, I could only force a smile, thanked Tom Wang for his "kindness", and promised to set up this organization immediately after the chaos was put down.Of course, Haihan must provide corresponding plans for this construction work, select suitable personnel, and provide the required professional training.
Wang Tom's proposal is of course not just to maintain the dominance of Li Ji's lineage in North Korea. With such a privileged institution, Haihan can monitor various targets in North Korea, especially those who oppose North Korea and Haihan. Cooperating officials, or those who are hostile to Haihan, Haihan can use this organization to eliminate hidden dangers, so as to ensure North Korea's long-term and stable attachment to Haihan.
As for how to control this organization in Haihan's hands, it couldn't be simpler. The operation method is decided by Haihan, and the manpower is selected and trained by Haihan. It's not difficult to be overhead.
Mastering such a special force means that Haihan's influence on North Korea will be further strengthened, which is of great significance, no less than measures such as opening up immigration restrictions.In the future, any voice or movement in North Korea that is unfavorable to Hai Han will be the target of this organization, which is far more convenient than using the garrison at the Taedong River Base.
