Chapter 206 Nanyang Hanzhong Province(1/2)
,
spn Hanzhong Island, on Zhang Family Mansion.
The core members of the Zhang family gathered together again. Unlike the last family meeting, everyone in this family meeting had a smile on their face. The patriarch Zhang Chaozhong even put on a brand new robe that he usually did not wear.
.
After the oppression is gone, the Chinese can finally straighten their backs and experience the feeling of living a down-to-earth and peaceful life. Some things are just like this. The so-called blessing of the common people is as simple as the absence of oppression.
According to the rules of the Zhang family, it is customary to hold a family banquet before a family meeting. All direct descendants must have a family banquet to promote mutual understanding and familiarity with their relatives.
As soon as the family banquet was over, the family meeting began in the huge main room. As usual, it was the people in charge of several houses and the most direct descendants of Zhang Chaozhong's lineage. The people serving tea in the room were all direct descendants, and women could not enter.
.[
"Ahem..." Zhang Chaozhong coughed twice, drank the tea after dinner, and then started to talk about business, "I called everyone here today to discuss important matters about our Hanzhong Island and the Zhang family.
.This time the Chinese army marched south, with the style of a king's army, destroying the Indonesian barbarians like a breeze sweeping away fallen leaves, which is really satisfying. The Chinese army of the Chinese army is majestic and orderly, and will not disturb the autumn. They regard us Hanzhong Island Chinese as our fellow citizens of the great China.
.
Today, the beasts in Indonesia are being imprisoned in a centralized manner waiting for us Chinese to judge on our own, and the Dutch warships are parked dozens of nautical miles away and dare not move. This is all brought about by the powerful motherland. If it had been yesterday, even if our Chinese compatriots had successfully resisted
, what was ushered in was nothing more than Dutch guns and warships.
However, now they dare not move, they dare to be angry but dare not speak out, they stare eagerly but dare not take action. All this is because we Chinese have a strong new "government" behind us and a new modernization force that is different from the past.
army.
Chairman Zhang strategized not to abandon the Chinese diaspora overseas. This is the new Greater Chinaism, which is a further step forward from the nationalism advocated by Mr. Sun."
No one in the Zhang family nodded. Although the old man was old, he was very knowledgeable and what he said was reasonable. Therefore, Zhang Chaozhong has always had the final say in matters concerning the Zhang family. Zhang Chaozhong, who is here,
The direct descendants of the family did not think that Zhang Chaozhong was talking nonsense. The old man had a long talk with Mr. Sun and was highly praised by Mr. Sun. He was deeply concerned about China and had high moral and righteousness. He was very famous at that time.
It's just a pity that the old man had high hopes for Mr. Sun back then. As a result, although Mr. Sun overthrew the Qing Dynasty, he could no longer take care of himself, the abandoned people of the Celestial Dynasty.
"However, the Chinese army cannot stay in Nanyang forever. Once withdrawn, Hanzhong Island will once again become the target of competition for all parties due to its unique geographical location. Therefore, I would like to listen to everyone's opinions and find a feasible solution.
Mr. Zhang said with a change of subject.
Everyone was talking about it. The old man was right. If the Chinese army left and just avenged the blood feud for many years, and the foreigners came back, wouldn't the Chinese be reduced to the first-class citizens of the colony again? My wife and daughter were imprisoned.
If a person humiliates his descendants and is enslaved by others, it will be a life worse than a pig or a dog.
"Old man, my ancestors of the Zhang family are considered powerful in Nanyang. The Chinese kingdom they established back then also made foreigners fearful for a while. We might as well take the opportunity to restore the kingdom's political power and let the Chinese rule the island and establish the Nanyang Chinese political power." A member of the Zhang family sitting on the right is
The old man spoke, his words were passionate and quite upright. This man is Zhang Chaozhong's cousin and can be regarded as a direct descendant of the Zhang family.
His proposal to restore the kingdom immediately aroused a huge response.
"No! The Celestial Empire's army is still there. Without the clear instructions of the Celestial Empire, privately restoring the kingdom would be tantamount to snatching the fruits of the war. This is a political taboo. To put it nicely, the Zhang family has made a concerted effort, but to put it worse,
, all the Chinese on Hanzhong Island were rescued by the Celestial Army, and our Zhang family’s role is just to wave the flag and call out pawns.”
Another old man, who was also Zhang Chaozhong's cousin, categorically rejected his cousin's idea.
"Also, if we restore the kingdom privately, I am afraid that Chairman Zhang from the mainland will have other ideas and think that our Zhang family is eager to seize power."
"How is this a power grab? We just want to stabilize the situation as soon as possible. Once this Chinese kingdom is restored, it will be an example for the entire Southeast Asian Chinese community in the future. This is a good thing."
"Third brother, you still think too simplistically about politics. Look at the location of Hanzhong Island on this map. It guards the entire South China Sea and is one of the frontier barriers of the mainland. Since the new 'government' has sent troops, it must
We have corresponding propositions and political demands. If we act privately, we will inevitably turn a good thing into a bad thing and alienate ourselves from the mainland."
Another well-informed member of the Zhang family shook his head and sighed.
"Dear clan members, this matter of founding a dynasty and establishing a country is indeed tempting. It has been the most glorious thing since ancient times. However, I think there are no more than two reasons why the kingdom established by Zhiwu Gong was destroyed. First, the internal strength was too great.
Secondly, there is almost no external support. The current international situation, for the Chinese as a whole, has just turned around. If we build a country based on wishful thinking, we probably will not be recognized by other countries at all. I think it is better to send people to test it out first.
The supreme commander of China's expedition to Nanyang this time will make another decision. Remember not to do bad things with good intentions, causing trouble among brothers and allowing foreigners to take advantage.
Everyone was talking about it and couldn't make up their mind. Finally, they went to Mr. Zhang to ask for his opinion.
"Brother, you make the decision. You alone have the final say on the Zhang family's affairs, good or bad. Even if you make a mistake, no one will blame you."[
"Yes, uncle, if you just say a word and charge into battle to fight the Dutch and Indonesians, we won't have a problem with it. You have good eyesight, so there is no need to discuss it further."
When the audience said this, Zhang Chaozhong nodded. In fact, he had already made an idea about this matter, "Our Nanyang and China may seem to be separated by thousands of sea miles, but in fact they are exactly the gateway to the South China Sea. Restoring the Zhang family
The kingdom may appear to be glorious, but it is actually suffering from poverty.
First of all, even if we can ensure that the Zhang family and the mainland are of the same mind when we are in power, who can guarantee that two or three generations later, the Zhang family will still be of the same mind as the mainland? If they are of the same mind, it is fine, but if they are not of the same mind, they will do such things that betray the race.
Isn't it a grave sin to deceive one's master and destroy one's ancestors by taking refuge with foreigners?
Secondly, the plight of the Nanyang Chinese is well known to the whole world, but only the new "government" sent troops south, which itself took a huge risk. Politically speaking, the other side of the risk is interest. The new "government" mobilized troops to rescue us, and naturally
We need to get corresponding rewards, otherwise, if there is another big event in Nanyang in the future, how can we get China to send troops to Nanyang again? I am afraid that many people will criticize the waste of military resources and cannot afford to pay back.
Once again, the new China is developing vigorously. According to the legends of students who returned to Nanyang from the mainland, the mainland is undergoing further national industrial development. Once completed, the new China will be like the great powers such as Britain and the United States.
Full rejuvenation of prosperity. Whether the Nanyang Chinese, who are closest to the mainland, can seize this opportunity and reintegrate into the embrace of the greater Chinese nation, the matter of Hanzhong Island will be of great importance.
Therefore, I decided to follow the example of the West and use public opinion to cooperate with the military force of the Celestial Empire. I once again launched a joint action of tens of thousands of people, putting public opinion first and begging the Celestial Empire to permanently station in Hanzhong through voting. Like Hainan and Taiwan, they would establish a province and build a government.
The territory of our Han Dynasty directly extends into Nanyang. In this way, the Western powers that have always bullied others with "democracy" will have no excuse. If the Chinese Empire becomes stronger again in the future, they will have the best opportunity to further expand their territory.
"
When everyone heard this, they immediately felt that this was the best way to talk it over. Simply suggesting that Hanzhong Island be incorporated into the new "China" country might leave some criticism to the foreigners. But if the referendum that foreigners often use is adopted, then
Isn't it just right?
Hanzhong Island has this foundation. More than 80% of them are Chinese, and the rest are Indonesians and Dutch who have been imprisoned and deprived of their rights. Wouldn’t this vote pass 100%?
Using public opinion combined with force will be the fastest way to solve the problem of the fate of Hanzhong Island.
The final discussion passed smoothly, and no one in the Zhang family approved of this approach. Although the restoration and founding of the country was very tempting, the core members of the Zhang family were not ordinary people, and they still had good vision. After weighing the pros and cons, they could only choose the best way.
"Dong dong dong..."
"Come in!"
Hanking, Captain's Room. Liu Tiangao was looking through the land war situation report on Hanzhong Island when he saw Xu Changmingmen, the commander of the army unit for the operation in the South China Sea, the commander of the Marine Brigade of the Navy's South China Sea Fleet, walked in.
.
Since the new China has just been established, all political and military work are still being carried out step by step. Therefore, the new China does not yet have a unified marine establishment. In order to cooperate with the naval operations, it is only in the three major fleets.
The establishment of the Marine Brigade was configured. When the South China Sea Fleet formed the Marine Brigade, it fought in Hong Kong
Xu Changming, who performed outstandingly in the battle, was born as a fisherman and had a natural yearning for the sea. He was also an outstanding student who graduated from the 17th batch of the Chinese Military Academy. After the reorganization of the garrison division, he returned from the garrison division.
〖China〗 He studied at the Chinese Naval Academy for half a year, and then was transferred to the Marine Brigade as the brigade commander.
"Hey, Brigadier Xu is here, sit down."
"Si Qian"
Liu Tiangao was a very casual person. During battle, he was serious and strict, but he had a good relationship with Xu Changming in peacetime. He got up and went to get his collection of Dahongpao tea, brewed two cups, then sat down and said
thing.
"I have just seen the situation on the island. The people's support is there, the military operations on land are going smoothly, and the Dutch and Indonesians on the island are vulnerable.
"Liu Tiangao briefly stated his views, "Looking at the sea, the reconnaissance plane found that the Dutch fleet was stationary in the direction of Jakarta, more than 40 nautical miles away. On the contrary, the British fleet was the closest, a hundred nautical miles away.
In addition, traces of the French and Spanish were also discovered. If the matter on Hanzhong Island is not resolved as quickly as possible, the great powers will probably pounce."
"Well, now the great powers are just afraid of our aircraft carrier fleet. Once they take risks, even if we can achieve final victory, we will not be able to do domestic construction effectively. After all, if the entire Nanyang colonists gather together to block the sea routes, we will lose too much.
It's time to implement the quick solution formulated by the General Staff." Xu Changming nodded and said that he came here just to discuss the quick solution to the Hanzhong Island matter.
According to the plan, the People's Army will support a local Chinese force and establish a Chinese organization. The worst outcome will be the establishment of a Chinese nation, and the best outcome will be forced and permanent occupation.
After all, at its root, no matter what, the new China must maintain a considerable military force in Nanyang to lay the foundation for its future comprehensive take-off, and also to lay out a chess piece and build a good chess piece for the future settlement of Nanyang issues.
Advance base.[
As the commander of the expedition to Nanyang, it was Liu Tiangao who had to contact the Zhang family on Hanzhong Island and test their ideas.
However, things in the world just happen to happen. When many people are worried about one thing at the same time, the efficiency of doing things is always surprisingly high.
"Report!" A loud report from the combat staff sounded outside the door.
"Come in!"
The combat staff walked in and said hurriedly, "Commander Liu, Brigadier Xu, thousands of Chinese people have arrived at the port. They all kowtowed and knelt down. Headed by Zhang Chaozhong, the old man of the Zhang family, they held up the people's letter and said they wanted to see the commander."
"Huh? If you have such a thing, let's go and have a look. Brigadier Xu and we will go together!"
As soon as the two of them stepped onto the deck, they saw a large number of people kneeling in front of the military cordon in the harbor. There were at least a thousand people. Kneeling at the front was a white-haired old man, holding up a large sign with both hands.
A letter wrapped into a cylinder.
The two immediately boarded the traffic boat and rowed to the port.
"My dear fellow countrymen, Liu Tiangao, as the supreme commander of the People's Army that went to Nanyang this time, if you have any grievances regarding the Indonesian and Dutch affairs, just tell me that the People's Army is not afraid of foreign forces as long as they are
Anyone who has violated our Chinese people will be judged to the end.
If our People's Army offends our compatriots, I, Liu Tiangao, have already obtained instructions from the military department before coming here. Once verified, I can kill them first and then report them on the spot to implement military law.
To be continued...
