Chapter 33 The strategy of sitting back and relax
"According to my personal judgment, the British are likely to take two ways to deal with the Malay problem." Wu Ming took a sip of water, stabilized his emotions, and said: "One is to divide it. Just like Singapore, we will naturally not agree with this plan; the second is to support the Malays to establish an army before withdrawing and compete with us. I wonder what you think about these two plans?"
"If it is the first type, there is nothing to say. If the British don't leave, we will continue to fight. If the British leave, we will unify the whole of Malaya." Li Xiaohai said: "As for the second type, I personally think that it is best not to have two armed forces in Malaya, but we must pay attention to strategies. If it can be combined, it will be the Malayan National Defense Forces and we cannot give people too tough to give them a handle. After all, Malays are the indigenous people here. If it is too much, I am afraid that they will be condemned by international public opinion."
"I don't think so." Liu Cheng shook his head and retorted bluntly: "If Malaya wants to be stable in the future, there will only be one national defense force, that is our Chinese People's Liberation Army. Malays, the Japanese come and the Japanese are traitors on the same day; the British come and become British traitors. Honestly, if Malaya can be independent in this negotiation, it will be exchanged for our Chinese with their lives and blood. Why can we let them enjoy their success?"
"I agree with Liu Cheng's opinion." Liu Haotian glanced at Li Xiaohai and said, "Don't forget that whether it was the Japanese or the British, the Malays were all involved in the persecution of the Chinese as lackeys. Haven't they always enjoyed privileges and superior? Now the situation may change, but the idea in their bones will not be eliminated. The military's combination will only make things more complicated in the future. What if our independent Democratic Party cannot rule? If the Malay party occupies a legal dominance, will the fruit of victory we exchanged for with our lives and blood be stolen by them? We Chinese still have to rely on others to give freedom and democracy to the Malays?"
"Does we still have to do genocide?" Zhao Xiaomei asked in a question: "This is not possible. Although I don't have a good impression of the Malays. But genocide and extermination cannot be done, so international intervention will be made. Maybe the British will find the Allies and come back!"
"According to information, the British have initially formulated an armed plan to train 50,000 Malay troops, and are being implemented. It is unknown whether this plan will be expanded in the future." The spy leader in Shenyang said coldly: "How many troops do we have? It's less than 50,000 now!"
"Our master alone can destroy these 50,000 mobs." The commander of the First Division, Lu Dahai, patted his chest and said, "The big fist is the hard truth. No matter what public opinion and influence he is, he will beat the Malays down, and the British will come and beat him."
"There is a reason to fight." Zhou Zhongming smiled and said to Lu Dahai, "But, there is no reason to be a crime. I don't believe that I can't find an excuse." "This sentence is well said." Wu Ming laughed admirably and said to Xiao Minghua and others: "I just want to ask you something, are you willing to bear a reputation for the sake of the Chinese in Southeast Asia? If so, then we will continue to discuss it. If not, you still think about your own reputation and your own benefits, then I have nothing to say. I will contact Chen Jiageng and Mr. Situ Meitang immediately to find a place for me in the United States, and I will take my wife to enjoy the happiness."
"Brother Liu, I understand what you mean." Xiao Minghua nodded solemnly, "This victory is coming soon. Some of us do have a mentality of looking forward to it, including me, I have to apologize to everyone. I will reiterate my previous vows, for the sake of equality and freedom of Malayan Chinese, and shed blood without regrets. So if I, Xiao Minghua, hurt the Malayan Chinese for some reputation and selfish interests, then am I still a human being? I will never forget the soldiers who sacrificed heroically for our victory."
Li Xiaohai added with some shame: "I was wrong, I'm sorry to everyone. I'm even more sorry to the martyrs."
"Why are you talking so seriously?" Wu Ming waved his hand with a smile, "I'm still afraid of being criticized by the butcher! Isn't this meeting just about discussing a reasonable solution? What's wrong with putting different opinions?"
"Let me tell me my ideas. If everyone thinks it is feasible, then give more valuable suggestions and improve them. If you think it is not feasible, then think of other ways." Wu Ming paused and continued: "If we look at the Malays in forming an army from another perspective, it cannot be considered a bad thing. It is better to deal with it on the surface than to hide in the dark. Moreover, as Zhong Ming said, there is no reason to be a crime to be added. The excuse can always be found, and if you can't find it, you can make it yourself. This can be planned by Shenyang."
"No problem. Although our intelligence department has not been established for a long time, there is still no problem in doing this." Shenyang nodded and replied.
"And when attacking the Malay army, we cannot use too many troops." Wu Ming said: "There are more troops than them, and it seems that there are premeditated cleaning. The troops we participated in the war should be fewer and more elite. There are 50,000 Malay troops. I think we can defeat them with 20,000 people, and attack more with less. In the eyes of the outside world, is it more like a stamina of quelling the rebellion?"
"It's good to quell the rebellion and fight back against self-defense. This is a very good excuse." Xiao Minghua nodded repeatedly with a smile.
"When the Malays lose their army, we can also announce temporary military control in Malaya." Wu Ming narrowed his eyes, "During the military control period, we can make full preparations for the general election, such as moving to Chinese from other places and formulating various conditions to restrict the qualifications of Malays to run for elections. When we think the conditions are ripe, we can hold the general election and so as to legitimately manage Malay affairs."
