It was with these two warships that Li Zhun started his tour of the South China Sea.The first stop of the navy was the Donglai Islands, but when they arrived here, they were surprised to find that there were people living on the island.

It turned out that from [-], the Japanese Nishizawa arrived here by accident. He was very excited when he found the rich guano resources on the island, and immediately had a bad intention to occupy this place.

Although the sea chart indicated that this was the territory of the post-Jin Dynasty, Caesar insisted that it was an island without an owner.Without reporting to any state department, he built three factories here privately, and built more than ten miles of railways and fresh water machines, and hired steamers to transport them back and forth.

From then on, Nishizawa renamed Donglai Island to Nishizawa Island, where guano was developed steadily.They not only rely on guano to produce phosphorus fertilizers, but also collect aquatic products such as kelp and hawksbill turtles, and survey the resources of the surrounding islands, as if they regard the nearby areas as their own territory.

Li Zhun discovered this situation soon after he arrived. He immediately dispatched sailors to control everyone on the island. Caesar was also arrested and put on the flagship Fubo for trial.During the interrogation, Nishizawa argued that he had occupied the island for more than two years, so the island was the territory of the Wa Kingdom, and the Houjin Navy had no control at all.

Li Zhizhi replied righteously: "This is the territorial waters of our country. The Donglai Islands have been in the territory of Hualan for hundreds of years. They are under the jurisdiction of Jinhui Prefecture after me. The sovereignty of the Donglai Islands has always been with me. How can you get it?" Occupation?"

Nishizawa argued in every possible way that Donglai has always been an island without an owner and is not a private possession, and it has been registered in China.Li Zhun was a staunch man, and when he heard the meaning, he was filled with indignation, and temporarily detained Nishizawa and sent troops to monitor the factory, preventing Japanese people from producing and extracting it, and sealing up the products in stock.

On the other hand, Li Zhun knew very well that this matter was of great importance. He immediately contacted the country, and after discussing with Zhang Renjun, Governor of Guangdong and Guangdong, he believed that the matter should be resolved through diplomatic channels first.So the two jointly called the Prime Minister's National Affairs Office, requesting to negotiate with Japan to take back the island.

The Zongli Yamen negotiated and decided to use the sea charts as evidence. At this time, the sea charts used for navigation were surveyed and drawn by foreigners, and the Dongsha Islands were called "Bunadas". Based on this, the Japanese did not recognize Dongnae as Hualan territory.At this time, Wang Xuecen, who was serving as an observer under Li Zhun's account, gave him an idea, suggesting that he consult the book "Haiguo Wenjianlu".

"Haiguo Jianwenlu" was written by Chen Lunjiong, the commander-in-chief of Gaoliang in the Qianhong period. The book confirms that the Donglai Islands have always been the territory of Hualan. The name Donglai Islands was also named by our Hualan people.In the face of factual evidence, and because the various powers at that time did not want Japan to enjoy exclusive interests in China and put pressure on Japan, and because our navy officers and soldiers had occupied the island and waited for it, the people of Japan had to agree to return Dongnae.

However, the Minister of the Wa Kingdom asked for compensation on the grounds that Nishizawa spent 10 taels of silver in operating the island.The admiral of the Navy, Li Guizhi, pushed him back tit for tat. He claimed: "The Japanese people stole the phosphorus fertilizer from this island, and the resources of the products are unknown. The factories, houses, machines, railways, steamships and other things here are built as compensation. Not allowed to claim back."

Later, Li Zhun handed over the island's industry to Quanye Road in eastern Guangdong for management, and recruited Hualan workers to engage in production.Every month, Li Zhun sends the "Guanghai Ship" to send living materials to the island and ship back the products produced.At this point, the Dongsha Islands, which are Hualan's territory, were officially declared to be recovered.

It is the first time in the history of the post-Jin country that Li Zhun regained the lost land of Donglai Island. In the hundreds of years of post-Jin country's history, he has repeatedly lost territory with other countries.In order to boost morale in the country, the imperial court made a big publicity about it, making this incident known to all women and children.

Taking advantage of the remaining prestige of regaining Donglai Island, Li Zhun continued to patrol the Silai Islands in high spirits.As early as 1840, after the Saar invaders opened the gate of Hualan with gunboats, they entered the Silai Islands of our country for the first time in 1844 to conduct illegal surveys.

From 1867 to 1889, the Saars went to the Nanlai Islands to conduct surveys and surveys and plundered a large amount of resources.During this period of time, the Teutonic Kingdom was also coveting the Silai Islands, and sent personnel to the Silai Islands for investigation many times.In view of the serious situation, Li Zhun was extremely worried that the island would repeat the mistakes of Donglai, so he asked the imperial court to inspect the islands.

Chapter 261 Finding a Foothold

On the second day of April in the first year of Xuanxing, Li Zhun led the navy officers and soldiers, after supplementing a group of engineers, surveying and mapping experts, chemists, doctors, and craftsmen, they continued southward on the two ships of "Fubo" and "Chenhang" to the Exploration of the Siley Islands.

At that time, Wu Jingrong was in command of the "Fubo" ship, Liu Yikuan was in charge of the "Chenhang" ship, Lin Guoxiang was in command of the left wing of the fleet, and there were also a Teutonic radio engineer named Bronx, Lihe Yangxing's second boss, Bu Siyu, and a group of Taoist officials accompanied him.

Passing through many places on the way, Li Zhun and others went ashore to survey and measure in detail, and recorded the local folk customs, geographical features and various products in detail.On April [-]th, Lee Zhun's fleet finally arrived at the Silai Islands.On the first island of Xilai that arrived, Li Zhun ordered someone to set up a large stone tablet with seventeen characters engraved on it: "In the first year of Xuanxing in the Qing Dynasty, the admiral of the Yuedong Navy, Li Yan, visited here."

Later, Li Zhun borrowed his "Fubo" ship to arrive at the island first, so he erected a monument and named the island "Fubo Island".In addition, craftsmen were ordered to build a wooden house on the island, and a white flagpole more than five feet high was erected in front of the house. Amid the solemn and solemn salute of firing cannons, the first Hualan national flag, the Huanglong national flag, was hoisted high in the west. Ley Island.

Afterwards, Li Zhun's cruise continued. They named Chenhang Island and more than a dozen Xilai islands in one breath, and once again swore the sovereignty of Hualan. It was not until April 23 that the fleet returned to Yuezhou Bay.The cruise lasted more than 20 days, and Li Zhun ordered the navy to survey and draw drawings every time he passed by, and presented them to the Ministry of the Navy and Army and announced them both at home and abroad.

This matter quickly reached Zhao Shouhong's ears, and Li Zhun's behavior reminded him.In the later generations, the South China Sea has always been an important pawn for the White Eagle Kingdom to contain the Hualan Kingdom. The reason is that these islands that are far away from the mainland cannot be taken into account when Hualan is in turmoil.Therefore, he must plan ahead, occupy a sufficient foothold first, keep this territory and territorial waters, and at the same time control the South China Sea, the future maritime traffic artery.

If one wants to control the South China Sea, one cannot rely on those tiny islands scattered all over the sea.Not to mention today's era of underdeveloped communications, even with the development of satellites in the future, it will be very difficult for the Hualan Kingdom to control the South China Sea. In the end, it will not spend a lot of effort to expand the island to promote development.

With Zhao Shouhong's current strength and current technological capabilities, it would be tantamount to wishful thinking to expand the island on a large scale, so he had to find another way.

Fortunately for Zhao Shouhong, the world today does not have as many worries as later generations.This is an era where the weak prey on the strong, and an era when force determines everything. As long as you have enough force, no one will condemn you for invading other countries.As long as you are strong enough and recognized by the great powers, they will even help you bully those weak countries. This is also a tacit understanding formed between the great powers.

Zhao Shouhong immediately set his sights on the surrounding areas of the South China Sea. Now there are four places that can garrison enough troops to cause radiation effects on the South China Sea, especially the Nanlai Islands.One is Huainan Island. Although it is far away from the Nanlai Islands, it is better than Hualan territory, which has the least impact on the foreign powers.

But now, if Zhao Shouhong intends to attack the domestic territory, it is tantamount to treason. This is tantamount to his first firing the first shot to overthrow the post-Jin court, and he has become the existence of Jiangxia's uprising in later generations.After the Jiangxia uprising that year, the imperial court sent a large army to encircle and suppress it, which left other areas empty of troops, causing uprisings to occur in various places, and accelerated the defeat of the Later Jin Dynasty.During this revolution, Jiangxia's rebel army endured the suppression of almost all the power of the Later Jin Dynasty, and became a veritable unlucky guy.

Zhao Shouhong has a big plan in mind, he doesn't want to waste his strength in such meaningless battles in the country, so he must try his best to avoid becoming the first righteous person.

The second foothold is the Indochina Peninsula, which is part of the mainland and was once a vassal state of the Later Jin Dynasty. Its geographical location is superior and it can deploy a large number of troops. At the same time, it is also connected to the country, which is enough to receive a large amount of land assistance.In addition, the Indochina Peninsula is located on the side of the entire South China Sea, and there are many good ports, which are enough for the fleet to easily support the entire South China Sea.

However, Indochina Peninsula also has many shortcomings. The people in this area are tough, and it is quite difficult to control, and it is the territory of Gaul. If you easily provoke them, it will be enough to make the Allied Powers hostile to you.Zhao Shouhong is unwilling to face this largest and most terrifying force in the world today, at least not now.At the same time, the Indochina Peninsula has a tropical climate, where the rainforest is densely covered, and transportation is inconvenient. Even building a railway will not be completed overnight, and it will cost a lot of money.

The third foothold is the Sulu Islands. Sulu was originally a Spanish colony.In the White-Red War in 2000, the Red Clothes Country was defeated, and Sulu was also bought by the White Eagle Country at a symbolic price of [-] million Eagle Yuan.Since then, Sulu has become a colony of the White Eagles.

Sulu is adjacent to the Nanlai Islands, and it is the nearest large landmass there. As long as it occupies there, it is enough to form a huge radiating surface.It can not only allow itself to stably control the entire South China Sea, but also block the Strait of Malacca when necessary, and even become a solid fulcrum for attacking Australia, which can be described as a lot of benefits.

Although there are so many advantages to occupying the Philippines, there are also many disadvantages.Now it is occupied by the White Eagle Country. The United States not only has tens of thousands of troops stationed here, but also has a permanent fleet, which can be described as a strong force.In addition, the White Eagle Country has become the world's number one industrial power, and its war potential is limitless, and it is impossible to compete with it with its own capabilities.Now that the various powers in the Western Continent are restraining each other, it is impossible for him to care about it. As the largest force in the Pacific Rim, the White Eagle Country can deal with itself very easily.

None of the above three places could be obtained in a short period of time, so Zhao Shouhong turned his attention to the last foothold, the East Zhaini Islands belonging to the Red Hair Country.The Eastern Zhaini Islands belonging to the Red-haired country, also known as the Eastern Zhaini Islands of the Netherlands, are one of the important overseas territories of the Red-haired country.It includes Sumatra, Java, Madura, most of Borneo, Sulawesi and Sanyihe, the Talau Islands, the Lesser Sunda Islands to the east of Java, and the New Guinea of ​​the Orang-Mao State. There are more than 7000 islands, and the territory spans the Eastern Continent and Nanyang State.

The island is extremely rich in resources such as rubber, spices, and precious wood, and even a large amount of metal and energy resources such as oil, coal, nickel, and tin, which can be described as a rare treasure.Due to the weakening of the Red Hair Country's national strength, it was later occupied by the Japanese Kingdom in the 40s. After World War II, the Netherlands was unable to control this place. Finally, a country called Zaninesia was established in this place.

Chapter 262

Today's East Zhaini Islands, which belong to the Red-haired country, is a place that lacks control. There are only thousands of Red-haired country garrisons in such a large place, and there are no other military presences except for some indigenous troops whose combat effectiveness is approaching zero. It is a very good situation. base.What is even more valuable is that there are more than 200 million Hualan people living in the entire East Zhaini Islands. Once they take control of this place, these people will become the strong cornerstone of his rule.

Zhao Shouhong made up his mind, and immediately began to arrange personnel to go to the East Zhaini Islands under the Hongmao State, intending to make some preliminary preparations.In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Zhao Shouhong dispatched a favorite general in his hands, even though this favorite general is not yet well-known.

More than ten days later, on the wharf of Surabaya Port, the second largest in Java Island, several people dressed as Hualan businessmen stepped onto the trestle bridge.They are Hualan merchants from the Kingdom of Kokang, with official passports issued by the Royal Family of Kokang, their identities are completely legal.One of them, a man with a square face and thick eyebrows, stood on the pier made of stone, looked around at the surrounding environment, and then showed a smile.

"Boss, you are here. The guys have been waiting for you for a long time." A young man who had obviously been waiting for a long time came over immediately and greeted the businessman.

"There was a strong wind at sea, so I came a day late." The businessman replied with a smile, and then he waved and followed the visitor with a few followers.

"Liu Battalion Commander, everyone has arrived. We have conducted reconnaissance in the surrounding area for the past few days. The defense of the red-haired people here is very weak, with only about 3000 troops. There are more than [-] indigenous servants, but there are no How much combat power." The man whispered to the businessman as he walked, and the businessman named Liu Battalion Commander nodded repeatedly.

"Everyone, be careful not to alert the authorities of the Red Hair Country. We are here on a special mission. If something happens, no one will recognize our identities." Commander Liu instructed the visitors.

"Of course, it's just that our weapons have not been found. I don't know if we can solve it." The visitor asked.

"Since your lord said to send it to us, it will definitely be done. Please be safe and don't be impatient. Before the weapon arrives, don't show the slightest trick." Liu Battalion Commander explained, and the visitor nodded in agreement.

They quickly entered the port of Surabaya, turned left and went right for half a day, passed several streets, and everyone entered the local Hualan community.There are Hualan people everywhere here, and a few more of them are not conspicuous. It is much more convenient to have local Hualan people to cover their activities.

In front of a low house, the visitor stopped: "Here we are, this is it." He then invited Battalion Commander Liu and his party inside.

"Bo Zhao?" A young man stood up and excitedly stepped forward to grab the young businessman who had just entered the door.It turned out that this young businessman who had just arrived was really 17-year-old Liu Bozhao who had just graduated from Sichuan Army University this year.

Liu Bozhao was born in Kaixian County, Zhongchuan. Later generations were the famous Marshal of the Republic, one of the founders and leaders of the People's Army, and an outstanding military strategist and theoretician in Hualan Kingdom. He was affectionately called the God of War by everyone. In the 30s, he was ordered to study in Hongluo. He first entered the Moscow Advanced Infantry School and then transferred to the Frunze Military School.

According to previous history, Liu Shuai's growth process was quite bumpy, but in this life he was excavated by Zhao Shouhong early and entered the Army University to study. Under the influence of advanced strategic and tactical subjects, his rapid growth made him The Teutonic teachers were all surprised, which is why Zhao Shouhong dared to send him to Nanyang to be the leader.

"Yunfeng, I didn't expect you to arrive so early. We can go to the Guokang Kingdom and come here." Liu Bozhao sat next to that person and said with a smile. The person opposite him was a classmate of the same period, also 17 years old. Year-old Zhang Yunfeng.

Zhang Yunfeng is also the marshal of the Republic of later generations. He is from Wenchang in eastern Guangdong. Historically, he should have entered the Eastern Guangdong Army Primary School in 1908 and joined the Hualan Gongxing Association in 1909.But in this life, Zhao Shouhong invited his family to live in Zhongchuan in advance, and he himself soon became a leader in the Army University. Together with Liu Bozhao, he became the famous duo of the Army University in that year, so it became a good story. .

This time Liu Bozhao and Zhang Yunfeng were sent to Java Island. Zhao Shouhong's purpose was very obvious, that is to let them take root here, establish a Hualan guerrilla, and use armed forces to fight against the rule of the colonists of the Red-haired country. Develop yourself until you have complete control of the island.

Except for the two of them, all the officers above the squad leader of the battalion who came with them this time came from the Yazhou Non-commissioned Officer Academy under the Army University.The soldiers are also elites who have trained hard in the new barracks for three months and have fought in Burma. They have rich combat experience in the rainforest.

Facing an enemy that is not powerful, Liu Bozhao and Zhang Yunfeng felt that they were sure to take control of Java Island as soon as possible.However, what the two of them need to solve most now is the issue of weapons, because these people entered the Eastern Zhaini Islands of the Red-haired country through normal official channels, and they did not carry any weapons.For those who are used to handling guns, the feeling of not having a gun is not good.

"Well, it should be here." Liu Bozhao looked around, observing the clearing in the forest.Before they came to carry out the mission, they had been informed of the overall plan, and the first step was naturally to obtain weapons. Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the predetermined location, they did not see any traces of weapons.

"I've confirmed it a few times. It's right here. Everyone spread out and look for it. But be careful, the aboriginal army will often patrol nearby." Zhang Yunfeng ordered the crowd, and then the soldiers dispersed. , looking around.

The soldiers searched for a long time, but they still couldn't find any traces of weapons, not even the traces of carts passing by.Liu Bozhao stood on the open ground and scratched his head. He was really stumped. He didn't expect to encounter a problem in the first step of taking the weapon.

"I think there is something wrong with the adults. The weapons were not delivered in time." Zhang Yunfeng leaned against the big tree behind him helplessly, wanting to take a rest first.

When Zhang Yunfeng was leaning on the big tree, he made a slight empty sound, which immediately attracted Liu Bozhao's attention. He walked to the big tree Zhang Yunfeng was leaning on and began to observe carefully.Trees grow rapidly in tropical areas, and this big tree has grown for hundreds of years, and its diameter has exceeded two meters. It is really a giant.
