After reaching an agreement with China, Xu Ziling and his side began to prepare for the exploration work.

In this South China Sea operation, the control of the territory is their most important target, so they will definitely know the oil companies within the territory of the Celestial Empire within the South China Sea.

Of course, they are not bandits, and they will still open the net to those enterprises they cooperate with, and they will not be wiped out.

After receiving a call from the United States, Nie Yunjie immediately asked people to answer them: The United States Oil Company in the South China Sea, as long as it cooperates in the actions of the military factories and takes the initiative to pay them relevant fees in the future, it can survive like it is now, but if it does not cooperate, then get out of the South China Sea.

On the issue of the South China Sea, there must be no negotiation, on the phone, the tone of the military factory is very tough, and the people of the United States naturally understand that they have no choice.

Hanko's coming to power, the important positions in the government have basically been replaced by people from their party, and they also understand their current attitude towards Red Star, if they had encountered such a situation in the past, they would have supported in the name of the government in the first time, but now, ......

When they learned the meaning of the military factory, they immediately forwarded these words to Shell and other oil companies, and directly warned them that it was better to cooperate well in this matter, otherwise, the result would not be something they could afford.

These oil companies are all human beings, and when they hear such blunt words, they still don't know that the government has changed in its treatment of the South China Sea?

After inquiring about their relationship, they understood that the current Red Star was definitely not something they could offend, and instead remembered Red Star's attitude, and at this time they felt that it was not wrong.

As long as you pay the relevant fees, you can continue.

Anyway, it's enough to be able to pay some fees in exchange for the rig to continue to survive in the South China Sea, which is acceptable.

Xu Ziling didn't care what they decided, while preparing for the exploration work, the military factory officially issued an announcement, according to the territory of the Celestial Empire, publicized their exploration scope, and at the same time warned all the oil companies in the region in very harsh terms: their behavior is strictly harming the interests of Red Star, and I hope that all the drilling platforms will come to Red Star to report within a month, and once it is overdue, Red Star will expel them.

When the news of cooperation with the Celestial Empire came out before, the countries of the South China Sea and the relevant oil companies were prepared, but what they didn't expect was that Red Star's attitude would be so tough.

Most of these companies knew that Red Star was not easy to mess with, and Red Star's conditions were not too difficult for them to accept, so they didn't think much about it, and soon began to contact Red Star.

However, their ideas do not represent everyone's thoughts.

It's like an oil company in Indonesia.

The company has three drilling rigs in Vietnam, and two of them are located in the area planned by Red Star.

In the face of the notice issued by Red Star, they didn't want to do this, but contacted Yue Guo and asked Yue Guo to respond accordingly.

Countries such as Vietnam and the Philippines, compared with economic losses, the loss of actual control rights in the South China Sea is what they are most worried about, but the United States, which had resolutely supported them before, has not made any movement now, which makes them worried.

In the South China Sea, there are many oil companies, and Indonesia, which is not unprepared, has contacted several other companies and started to put pressure on their signatories, suggesting that their countries can stand in solidarity with them.

The Vietnamese and Philippine countries are also riding tigers now, and suddenly they have someone who can support them, they are like people who have fallen into the water and have picked up a straw, and they can't help but catch him first.

If so, several countries simultaneously issued opposing statements, stating that these areas are their exclusive economic zones, and that the Celestial Empire has no authority to dispose of them, and it is irresponsible to hand them over to the Red Star.

Several countries combined, the momentum is not small, but who cares?

The United States and Britain are now eager to think that they don't know about it at all, and the Celestial Empire is based on the fact that this has been the territorial waters of the Celestial Empire since ancient times, and your exclusive economic zone was made by you, and there is no internationally recognized reason to shirk it.

Time flies quickly, more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and during this time, the exploration platform on the side of the military factory has finally been prepared.

On this day, the new drilling rig was officially launched and sailed to the southernmost point of the South China Sea, which is less than 100 kilometers from the Philippine coastline.

Less than 100 kilometers, this is completely the doorstep of people's homes, and you can imagine what the Filipino people will react to.

A few days later, when the exploration vessel entered the Philippines at a distance of 200 kilometers, fishing boats began to appear on the sea.

This time, they used a semi-submersible drilling platform, and the speed of movement was not very fast, and after half a day, dozens of ships came to intercept them.

At first, these ships only stopped by moving slowly, but in the end, they stopped them by casting nets and placing obstacles at sea.

In this case, the drillship eventually had to stop.

Xu Ziling knew that this trip would definitely not be too peaceful, but for them, the drilling ship was actually just used for pretending, and the real detection method was his revised tactical watch.

When the drillship stopped, he didn't let the exploration team react aggressively, but asked the people of the drillship to stop there, so that they didn't act rashly and just fished when they had nothing to do.

On the other hand, let the aircraft carrier group sail directly from the North Indian Ocean to the South China Sea under the pretext of military exchanges with the Celestial Empire.

This news was sent a few days after the drilling ship stopped, and before that, the Philippines and other countries looked at the Red Star and did not move, thinking about what happened to the Red Star.

thought of a variety of results, protesting or asking the Celestial Empire to dispatch armed forces, but they just didn't expect them to actually dispatch an aircraft carrier formation.

At this time, when he came to military exchanges, isn't this Sima Zhao's heart known to everyone?

However, their actions were watched by people all over the world, and it was difficult to retreat for the sake of face, and in the next half a month, the number of blocked ships was changed one by one, but the number was not small, but they were so worried in their hearts that they couldn't do it.

With the experience of the island nation, they are really worried that Red Star will let them follow in the footsteps of the island nation as they did last time.

Strangely, Red Star has not given any other reaction during this time.

Such a situation has made countless people speculate, and they can't figure out what Red Star is going to do.

The voyage of the aircraft carrier formation, this time did not pass through the Strait of Malacca, but chose to make a detour to the Pacific Ocean, and after more than half a month, the entire fleet arrived in the South China Sea.

After arriving in the South China Sea, the battle group of six warships and one aircraft carrier made a detour in battle formation to the location where the drilling ship was anchored.

The ships dispatched by the Philippines are all small ships, and the warships of the aircraft carrier group have a minimum displacement of several thousand tons.

Led by the aircraft carrier, they rushed directly towards the blocking ships without making a sound, and the result can be imagined.

Xu Ziling's order was not to scare and scare people, but to be real.

At a distance of five nautical miles, the Philippine fishing boats thought that the fleet was scaring them, but after a nautical mile, the battle group made remarks on the public radio channel that they had blocked the formation and would be regarded as a threat of attack on the fleet, and they realized that the aircraft carrier formation was really coming.

Whether it is an obstacle such as fishing nets or small boats, it is no problem to block the exploration team, but for a huge aircraft carrier, this is a child.

After showing off his might, he left a destroyer as a deterrent, and the rest of the ships in formation headed north to the port of the South China Sea Fleet.

Although he did not use force this time, the meaning expressed was the clearest.

When everyone saw the results, they understood Red Star's determination: anyone who obstructed the work of the exploration team would do whatever it took to ensure that their work was carried out.

In this way, the Philippines and Vietnam are naturally sad, especially the Philippines, seeing the drilling platform at their doorstep, they dare not make any moves, which is really heartwarming.

The one-month deadline came quickly, and except for the five oil companies' drilling rigs that were not reported to Red Star, the rest had to go through the relevant procedures with Red Star.

Money is earned by a person and not played, so Red Star did not embarrass these companies, except for asking for a part of the normal taxes and other benefits, there is no other reason.

And for those companies that do not cooperate, of course, they are ready to make an example of chickens and monkeys.

Unlike the previous expulsion, this time Xu Ziling and they were ready to be ruthless, the original plan was to expel all the drilling platforms of non-cooperative companies by force, but an unexpected thing made them interrupt this plan.

Three domestic tourists were kidnapped in the Philippines!

……

It is not uncommon for tourists to be kidnapped in the Philippines, over the years, tourists from all over the world have happened, and it is not the first time that domestic tourists have done so, but this kind of thing is not much known or valued by outsiders under the cover of someone, which has caused the long-term prosperity of tourism in the Philippines.

The rebels in the Philippines are the most notorious in Southeast Asia, and they were once more famous than the warlords of the Golden Triangle.

Sometimes, the government or the army does something that directly overthrows down the top of the anti-government armed groups, so ......

If it was before, Xu Ziling and they would not have followed up on this matter, but now the situation is different.

When they heard the news, they were ready to take this opportunity to have a good time!
