J5 and K7 quickly looked at each other and knew that their mission could be carried out. From Amba.s.sador Qin Xiu’s words, it was impossible for the negotiation to go smoothly at seven in the morning.
They would not interfere in other countries’ politics. Similarly, they would not allow anyone to secretly destroy the peace of their country. Since they were all acting in secret, they would continue laying low.
Soon, the news of the deployment of additional troops at the border of China spread. A few blurry photos of armored weapons and new missiles that were still half-covered leaked out.
The photos were released at 6:40 a.m.. The domestic military media had yet to report it, but the old government, the new government, and the various ethnic armed forces already had these photos.
In the building occupied by the old government, a group of people had cold expressions on their faces. Their eyes were dark as they sat at a large conference table. The complexion of the leader sitting at the top could not be any darker. He threw a few photos on the conference table and said angrily, “Is this the att.i.tude you were talking about? Look! New missiles, armor weapons… all of them are here. What else do you have to say?!”
!!
“In Chinese terms, you’re a bunch of frogs in a well! China is weak? They can only endure it? They can only swallow their anger? Do you see this? This is the surface-to-air missile used by China for last year’s grand celebration! If a few missiles were to come over, we’d all be finished! China says it’s a drill, but do you believe it?
“Missiles, tanks, armor, three regiments, thousands of people suddenly showing up for a drill… Do you think it’s a drill?!”
The leader was so angry that he slammed the table. The people sitting below held their breaths and silently endured his anger.
“The amba.s.sador sent by the Chinese side told the new regime that if no negotiator arrives at seven o’clock sharp, he’ll leave… Commander-in-chief, why don’t we wait a little longer? If the Chinese amba.s.sador doesn’t leave at seven o’clock sharp, we can send someone over immediately.”
“That’s right, Commander-in-Chief. The Chinese amba.s.sador and the others are already used to waiting for people. Since they’re used to waiting for people, let them wait a little longer. They want to use a drill to intimidate us. Ha, China is not a Western power!”
“He can wait, then. Our negotiator is leaving now. He’ll arrive around 7:20.”
“Give them a call and say that our negotiator encountered an emergency and has to deal with it immediately. That’s why he won’t be arriving in time.”
“Yes, we’ll call at 6:50 and have them wait for us for another 20 minutes.”
“Yes, we’ll do that.”
“We were delayed by something and called in advance to explain. We also expressed how important this negotiation is to us and our respect for China.”
Qin Xiu arrived at the negotiation location at 6:51 and received a call from the old government at 6:51. Their negotiator had urgent matters that needed to be dealt with at the last minute. They hoped the Chinese side could understand and asked the Chinese amba.s.sador to wait for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, the negotiator would arrive around 7:20.
The call from the old regime relieved the negotiators from the new regime and the National Armed Forces. It wasn’t that the negotiator of the old regime wasn’t coming but that he couldn’t get there on time due to an emergency.
“I’m very sorry, Amba.s.sador. I’ll have to ask you to wait another 20 minutes. The negotiator from the old regime will definitely be there.
“We are very grateful for your understanding and support. Please forgive us for this hurried meeting. Sometimes, there are some things that can’t be easily avoided. We can only try to do better.”
The old government negotiator did not arrive on time. The two negotiators had already expressed their goodwill to Qin Xiu and China, hoping that China could support the neighboring country as usual and jointly safeguard the stability of the border between the two countries.
