There are also some journalists, including some military journalists.

Someone recognized the model of howitzer.

Quietly, the undercurrent began to surge.

"Sir, this is the French cannon!"

Someone shouted in the crowd.

The others were quick and quiet.

Zhang Yong was going to leave, but he turned back.

I saw the camera in the other party’s hand. It turned out to be a reporter! Okay, I will hold a reporter’s Q&A on the spot.

"Do you know this kind of artillery?" Zhang Yong asked resentfully without answering.

His voice was loud.

Everyone around heard it clearly.

"Of course! This is the M1917 155mm howitzer produced by our French company Schneider!"

The reporter also had a loud voice and was also very proud.

It's actually a French journalist.

It's really rare. It's rare in normal times.

"So, what are you asking?" Zhang Yong straightened his body.

Click!

Click!

Many reporters are taking photos!

There is a concession in Hankou, and many foreign journalists gathered.

I feel that all the reporters gathered at the dock today?

Very strange...

Isn’t it just three French howitzers? Is it worth mobilizing such a large number?

You have seen howitzers...

"Sir, are these howitzers from France helping you?"

Another reporter asked.

Zhang Yong judged that the other party might be a German journalist.

The problem is very tricky!

However, he had already thought of the answer.

"So what if it is aid? So what if it is not aid?"

"Sir, does this mean that France is beginning to provide you with military aid?"

"Why did this question?"

"Since the French have provided you with large caliber howitzers, they must be involved in the war between you China and the Japanese?"

“Nothing to be told.”

Zhang Yong had a straight face and pretended to be deep.

The German reporter was still talking, but Zhang Yong reached out to stop him.

Very good, the Germans are very cooperative.

Just right to bring out the topic.

"Cough cough!" Zhang Yong deliberately coughed twice, cleared his throat, and then began his own performance.

"I can't answer the question from this reporter. However, I can tell you that the French, as the main person in charge of the League of Nations, have the responsibility and ability to maintain world peace." Zhang Yong said slowly, "Do you understand if I say so?"

"So, the French did provide you with military aid?"

“Nothing to be told.”

Zhang Yong once again looked stern, not admitting, not denying.

You guessed it yourself?

Anyway, the French howitzers are here.

You guys say, did the French provide military assistance? Haha. I don't think...

"Sir, how did you get these howitzers?"

The French journalist felt something was wrong.

Did France have military aid to China? He has never heard of it.

The French did not attend the previous closed-door consultation meeting of the nine countries.

"Of course it was shipped!"

"Sir, what I ask is howitzers you get, whether to buy or give away?"

"Buy."

"Who did you pay?"

"Mr. Journalist, your question is too detailed to answer. I really don't know."

"you do not know?"

"I am only responsible for the reception. The specific trade process is not my responsibility. I am sorry I cannot answer."

"But……"

The French reporter had to ask the questions to the end, but was squeezed behind by another reporter.

Zhang Yong glanced at the other party and recognized him as a British journalist.

Among the crowd, there were also reporters from the beautiful country. But they were silent.

"Mr. Commissioner," the British reporter said, "Did you sign a secret agreement with France?"

"I don't know." Zhang Yong shook his head, "You said it was a secret agreement. How could I know? I can't answer this question. Next."

"Then, Mr. Commissioner, is there any follow-up besides these three howitzers?"

"Of course, the goods will arrive one after another."

"Apart from this type of howitzer, are there any other models?"

"I don't know. But there should be."

Zhang Yong answered honestly.

That's the truth.

There are definitely more than three doors! There will definitely be more in the future.

In addition to this model, there will definitely be other models! How can such a huge system be only one model?

Jump from 75mm to 155mm at once. The intermediate stage must be filled!

Look, I'm so honest. I didn't lie in every word.

"So, in the future, more French arms will arrive, right?"

"I didn't say that."

"I understand. Thank you!"

The British journalist stepped back. He had already got the answer he wanted.

Other reporters were all busy recording. They felt that Zhang Yong had already made it very clear.

I just didn't say the word "French". This is also an international practice.

The French journalist shouted: "Sir, why did you choose this howitzer?"

"It was not my choice." Zhang Yong replied seriously, "It was designated."

"Specified? You don't have the right to choose?"

"No."

Zhang Yong nodded.

There is indeed no.

The system has only one option. No other.

The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥Book⊥⊥⊥First⊥!

"So, this is the French who deliberately sold outdated weapons and equipment to you at a high price, right?"
