Expedition to Europe

The pledge of allegiance sounds like a desperate move.

In fact, that's what Qin Zhiyuan was planning.

In fact, Qin Zhiyuan and Huang Bohan have discussed many times how to reasonably obtain the British Malayan territory and Zheng He Island in Wanghaizhou.

The most effective method seems to be that Lan Fang supports the local indigenous people to resist colonial rule, seek independence first, and then join Lan Fang legally.

This method is actually what Qin Zhiyuan is most familiar with, but it also has a huge hidden danger.

If Lan Fang supports the local uprising, then it must choose a local famous person as the leader, and people's desires will always change. Those people may choose to cooperate with Lan Fang in the beginning to seek independence.

But after the successful independence, no one knows whether those people's minds will expand. If they want to truly achieve actual independence, it will be a loss.

Actually, it's okay. If Lan Fang can support the first resistance movement, then it can support the second one. If those leaders choose to be truly independent at that time, all Lan Fang has to do is repeat what they did before.

No matter who it is, under this premise, they will make the decision that best suits their own interests.

Of course, that's only in the worst case. Generally speaking, since those people can get to a high position, they will naturally not make such low-level mistakes.

For example, Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren in front of Qin Zhiyuan, these two people don't look like fools.

Relatively speaking, Qin Zhiyuan is more curious about Qin Huaren, because Qin Huaren actually claimed that he has nearly 10,000 people under his command, which makes Qin Zhiyuan feel a little incredible.

You know, Zheng He Island where Qin Huaren is located is Palawan Island in another time and space. As far as Qin Zhiyuan knows, that island has been sparsely populated until the 21st century and is famous for its original natural scenery. But in this time and space, Qin Huaren can actually pull up a team of nearly 10,000 people on Zheng He Island, which makes Qin Zhiyuan feel a little curious.

You know, to form a 10,000-man army, there must be at least a 100,000-man population base or more, and Zheng He Island does not have the conditions to feed 100,000 people no matter how you look at it.

It is the early 20th century, and the land yield is not as abnormal as in the 21st century, and hybrid rice has not appeared. A lot of land is needed to feed 100,000 people. It may be possible to develop all the land on Zheng He Island, but it seems very unlikely now.

Hearing Qin Zhiyuan's question, Qin Huaren naturally answered ten questions: "There were only a thousand people on Zheng He Island, so the Americans only came up once, and then never came."

In the early 20th century, whether it was Americans or British, their colonial behavior was to dump their own industrial products, so the population of the colonies was what these colonists needed. Without people, there would be no consumption, and naturally there would be no opportunity to dump industrial products. Therefore, when Americans found that there were less than a thousand people on Zheng He Island, they lost interest in Zheng He Island.

From this, we can imagine how great the temptation of the Republic of China's super market of 450 million people was.

"After the outbreak of the great plague, Lord Jin sent people to Zheng He Island to deal with the aftermath of those who were unfortunately infected, and also saved those of us who were not dead yet..." Qin Hua said very emotionally, wiping his eyes while speaking. It seems that the life during that period left a deep impression on Qin Hua.

Lord Jin is Jin Taihe. Jin Taihe's troops are now responsible for the defense of Wanghaizhou, and the direction of Zheng He Island is Jin Taihe's defense zone.

Oh... the British Malaya area of ​​Wanghaizhou also belongs to Jin Taihe's defense zone.

"This plague is extremely cruel. A healthy person may be alive and kicking in the morning, but may be infected at noon, and then may die at night. No matter how good the doctor is, he is helpless. After the news that the troops sent by Lord Jin can treat diseases spread, many people came to Zheng He Island for medical treatment. Therefore, the population of Zheng He Island is now far more than 100,000, so I can raise a force of nearly 10,000 people." Qin Hua's gratitude was beyond words.

In fact, the Qinhua people did not receive much education, which shows that the Qinhua people's family conditions were not very good before, but they were able to seize the opportunity to raise a team during the Spanish flu, and the Qinhua people were good at seizing opportunities.

So, opportunities in life are really everywhere, it depends on whether you can seize them firmly when they appear.

Relatively speaking, Li Zongfang may have had a good family condition before, received more education, and had a relatively high social status. If such people start a revolution, it will be the most thorough, because they can be ruthless and give up what they have, which undoubtedly requires great wisdom.

"Your Majesty, if Your Majesty can let General Jin send some officers to Sarawak, I can guarantee that it will not be difficult to raise a force of more than 10,000 people in a few days, and your majesty does not need to worry about weapons and equipment. There is a little surplus in my family, and I can take on the weapons and equipment." Li Zongfang can really be ruthless.

Li Zongfang asked Qin Zhiyuan to send officers, which means that Li Zongfang gave up the leadership of the army, which is equivalent to giving up the future dominance of Sarawak, which seems to be more sincere.

Li Zongfang probably has a family background in military education, so he must be aware of the importance of the army to the ruler. If one does not know how to advance or retreat, that is the true way to death.

Many people just do not understand this truth, or perhaps they do understand it, but they pretend to be ignorant, so they end up dying and their clans are destroyed.

Of course, what Li Zongfang said may also be a little bit to wake up the Qin Hua people, but judging from the Qin Hua people's appearance, it seems that he still doesn't understand this truth.

Qin Zhiyuan hasn't thought that far yet. Even if the spoils are unevenly divided in the future, it will only happen after success. Before success, all parties should cooperate sincerely. There is no doubt about this.

Regarding the principle of dividing the cake and making the cake bigger, many people understand it in the era of knowledge explosion in the 21st century.

But at the beginning of the 20th century, to be honest, few people understood this truth.

Even in the 21st century, many people are limited to rhetoric. If we really put ourselves in their shoes, few people can face wealth without forgetting their original aspirations.

Money and silk touch people's hearts!

"As for weapons and officers, you don't have to worry. As long as you are thoughtful, these are not problems... Well, you can contact General Jin for details tomorrow, and you can discuss it then." Qin Zhiyuan gave reassurance.

In any case, Qin Zhiyuan would not directly say anything to encourage Li Zongfang and the Qinhua people to "rebellion". This was a matter of principle.

Jin Taihe is still in Wanghaizhou. Although the mountains are high and the water is far away, as long as there is a plane, everything is not a problem. With only a telegram, Jin Taihe can appear in front of Li Zongfang and Qin Hua tomorrow morning.

Seeing that Qin Zhiyuan meant to "see off guests", Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren eagerly waited for Qin Zhiyuan's instructions. Qin Zhiyuan said a few words of comfort and then ordered Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren to be sent to the hotel to rest.

That's right, there is now a hotel on Penglai Island, and it is an original log cabin-style hotel with beautiful scenery and considerate service. Even people like Old Renault are satisfied, not to mention Li Zongfang and Qin Hua.

After sending Li Zongfang and Qin Hua away, Qin Zhiyuan immediately ordered people to invite Qin Zhisheng and Huang Bohan to discuss how to provide support to Li Zongfang and Qin Hua.

By the time Huang Bohan and Qin Zhisheng arrived at Black Swan Castle, it was already a day later, so Jin Taihe was able to attend the meeting.

"...In the current British Malaya region, the number of Chinese is still quite large. In the British Malayan land of Wanghaizhou, there are at least 200,000 aborigines with Chinese ancestry, and these 200,000 people are Our biggest reliance on the British is that they have no Chinese ancestry. The Malays cannot be trusted, and similarly, the Luzon people cannot be trusted. In fact, these people have a lot of Chinese blood on their hands, and my subordinates think it is more appropriate to let them fend for themselves..." Kim Tae-hwa, the successor of the first six doors, first When introducing the situation, there was no shortage of "imperialist" remarks in his words.

At present, Lanfang has a relatively open attitude towards freedom of speech, so various ideas are emerging one after another. "Imperial Hanism" and "Han chauvinism" both have a market, and even KMT's "Three People's Principles" have a certain market.

However, in Qin Zhiyuan's case, the "Three People's Principles" are obviously not welcome, especially the "nationality" item, which Qin Zhiyuan does not like.

Qin Zhiyuan is very opposed to this artificial racial division. Whether Easterners or Westerners, there is only one name in Lanfang, and that is "Lanfang people". Any attempt to divide ethnic groups based on ethnicity is illegal in Lanfang. This is enshrined in the Constitution.

"This is not appropriate. Regardless of whether they are Malays or Luzon people, as long as they yearn for our Chinese culture and accept our Chinese culture, they should be regarded as a member of our Chinese people, rather than classifying them as another race and leaving them to their own devices. Self-destruction. Take ten thousand steps back to speak. If we hate a certain ethnic group, then would we completely assimilate them, wipe out all traces of their existence, and wipe out all traces of their existence? Isn’t this kind of revenge more thorough?" Huang Bohan was not impatient, and his words were sinister. People shudder.

"Some people are born to be ignorant white-eyed wolves. When they are weak, they will beg for mercy from you to gain sympathy. As soon as they gain power, they will immediately transform into Zhongshan wolves and attack their masters. Such people must not be tolerated." Kim Tae-hwa insisted.

Kim Tae-hwa is a military general, and Huang Bo-han is Prime Minister Lanfang. Although the two have different statuses, there is no difference in the right to express opinions. Qin Zhiyuan strongly agrees with Rousseau's words: I can disagree with what you are saying. Every word you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

"There is no need to argue about this issue. We will discuss the rest later. The topic we want to discuss today is how to support them, not how to eliminate them." Qin Zhiyuan ended the argument and gave Jin Taihe a vague wink.

Jin Taihe suddenly understood.

Even if British Malaya and Zhenghe Island in Wanghaizhou surrender to Lanfang, they are still under the control of Jin Taihe. It will be up to Jin Taihe to decide how to deal with those guys...
