1890 King of Southeast Asia

After Charles left, Liu Yiming clenched his fists.

"The British are too greedy..." Liu Yiming spoke only in the voice that he could hear.

Just now, Liu Yiming was testing the British attitude. Although Sumatra is sensitive, it is not so important to Britain. On the contrary, because of the existence of the Straits Settlements, the Strait of Malacca is completely controlled.

What Liu Yiming wants to know is whether the British support Liu Yiming's continued attack on Kalimantan, Spice Islands, Irian Island and other islands after Java.

Judging from Charles' attitude, it is not very ideal, especially for Sumatra. Charles' attitude is very tough. Liu Yiming can only choose to shelve the dispute, but Britain will not spend time and effort to occupy Sumatra.

At this time, the British Empire is on the road to prosperity. It is already the empire on which the sun never sets. The land area is more than 30 million square kilometers, the territorial waters are even more vast, and it has the most powerful navy.

In a few years, the British Empire will officially usher in the most powerful moment. In 1897, Queen Victoria's fleet review, the powerful navy pressed other navies in the world to breathe.

But it also made Britain, which only had tens of millions of people, have no energy to manage more land.

However, Charles' last words left a loophole. As long as the Java War was won, they could negotiate with the British.

"If it doesn't work, don't blame me for being ruthless during the Boer War!" Liu Yiming said viciously.

Java Island fell into a strange calm, but Europe was not like this.

In the Dutch Royal Palace, Queen Wilhelmina ignored the royal majesty and asked the cabinet in a lost state.

"Dear Prime Minister, please tell me what happened in East India!"

"Dear Queen, don't panic, there was only a small rebellion in East India, and the brave army will soon solve this trouble!" The Prime Minister said with a bulging belly.

"Then, I hope you will be quick, the Netherlands has become a joke!" Queen Wilhelmina said as she put a piece of newspaper on the table and turned away.

"So, what's going on? Why is there no news at all? Where did this Nanhua come from? And damn it, why are there two governors in their hands? Why?" After the Queen left, the Prime Minister blasted the Cabinet.

Unfortunately, there was silence below.

"Colonial Secretary, this is your job, you say something." Seeing that no one spoke, the Prime Minister named the Colonial Secretary.

"Prime Minister, Governor Cornelis of the Pinnacle family has been managing East India for some time, and he has been managing it very well. Later, the new governor took over from the old governor, and this kind of thing happened. I don't know the details!" The Colonial Secretary is an old aristocrat. He is about to retire and is not worried about this matter.

"Snake, do you want to push yourself clean?" The Chancellor of the Exchequer said to the Colonial Secretary.

"Don't spit blood!" Colonial Secretary Snake retorted.

The Cabinet immediately quarreled with two people as the center point.

"Enough! Stop arguing, solve this matter first, otherwise everyone will wait for the verdict!" The Prime Minister could no longer bear it.

"The local troops are poorly trained, poorly equipped, and understaffed, and their transfer will leave the mainland empty," said the Minister of Defense.

"Then get rid of the group of mercenaries fighting in Sumatra!" said the Prime Minister...
