As for Hu Zhen's analysis of the situation in Hawaii, even King Kalakaua's political enemies are specific and named, and the description of their deeds is very accurate.

Hu Zhen's accurate grasp of the situation made King Kalakaua, known as the Happy Sovereign, extremely shocked and very suspicious, but he didn't know what Hu Zhen's purpose was: "Chief Hu, what are you doing here?" ”

Hu Zhen had been prepared for this for a long time, and he talked eloquently:

"Your Majesty, do you know that there are hundreds of thousands of young and middle-aged Chinese workers in the United States, and they are being ostracized and attacked by the thugs of the United States, and the United States has even carried out discriminatory legislation against an industrious race like ours, restricting the freedom of the Chinese people in the United States, and now hundreds of thousands of Chinese people are going back to the Far East, and Hawaii is an important transit point, do I not attach importance to the stability of this transit station? If it is also mastered by the Chinese people, how will my hundreds of thousands of compatriots return to their hometowns? ”

When King Kalakaua heard this, he nodded, his source of information was very extensive, and the continuous flow of Chinese workers from the United States through Hawaii to the South Seas made him know something about the Chinese laborers in the United States, which was a reasonable reason.

Seeing him nodding, Hu Zhen continued: "In Hawaii, we also have 70,000 Chinese immigrants, and I will definitely be more concerned about the safety of these compatriots. If I want to save the Kingdom of Hawaii, I must first save Your Majesty! ”

"You're going to save me, how are you going to save me?" King Kalakaua let out a long sigh. Claiming to be a puppet king with no power. The whole world called him the happy monarch. But he was not happy at all, his health was getting worse and worse, and he thought to himself that he probably didn't have much time left without being sent to the gallows by his political enemies, and he had even decided to pass the throne to his sister Lilicarani.

Hu Zhen took out a few gold coins and put a pistol on the table, and told Kalakauu: "Your Majesty, I believe you have also thought that if you have these two powerful things, you will definitely be able to control the overall situation of Hawaii, right?" ”

How could Kalakaua not understand. If he had money and soldiers, he would have taken action a long time ago, but he was very suspicious of what Hu Zhen took out: "Chief Hu, what price do you need me to pay for these two things?" ”

Kalakaua is not stupid, of course he knows that if someone else does something for him, he must pay a price.

Hu Zhen also understands that the relationship between countries is a relationship of interest utilization, and he says what he wants to get:

"It's very simple, our Huaxia Guild and the Kingdom of Hawaii have signed an alliance and mutual aid agreement. Military alliances, mutual economic assistance, cultural exchanges, and free people-to-people exchanges. Aren't you going to build a Greater Polynesian Empire? Help you achieve your dream of becoming the happy monarch of the Greater Polynesian Empire. But when the Huaxia Guild is in trouble, the Greater Polynesian Empire wants to lend a helping hand! ”

Kalakaua stood up, lowered his head and paced around a few times, he was very calm on the surface, but his heart was turbulent, Hu Zhen didn't speak, let him think in circles.

After a while, Lacarava stopped and asked Hu Zhen, "How much money can you lend me to give?" How many troops? ”

Hu Zhen said in his heart, this king finally came, so he smiled and said, "How much money do you need?" How many troops are needed? ”

"The first time it will take at least three million dollars, and if the country stops importing crops such as sugar and pineapples from Hawaii, the whole of Hawaii will be in trouble, and more money will be needed at that time! In terms of force, I need 3,000 troops to destroy the 1,500-meter Nationalist Rifle Team in the hands of the Security Committee! And, if necessary, your fleet will appear on the shores of Hawaii to help us! ”

King Lacarava finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind, he had never been ignored by the state when he wanted to find someone to take out a loan, but this time someone was finally willing to provide a loan, so he planned to stop being mild-mannered, and he would use thunder to destroy those hateful European and American political enemies in the Hawaiian Kingdom.

"Three million dollars, it's only six hundred thousand pounds, no problem at all, I will be able to meet your request when I go out to the door, and send someone to give you the money immediately, and you will need money later, although you can just ask." As for the 3,000 troops, I suggest that you recruit native people in Hawaii and train them, I can provide you with weapons, and I can also send 500 experienced instructors from my army to help you train! ”

Hu Zhen's kind of sending money and troops is undoubtedly an action to send charcoal in the snow, Kalakaua is really needed, and now it seems that there is no plan to directly send troops to Hawaii, obviously there is no intention of annexation, which makes Kalakaua very relieved, impulsively, he stepped forward and shook Hu Zhen's hand, and said: "Let's form an alliance and cooperate like this!" ”

"Okay, let's make an alliance like this!" Hu Zhen was also very happy.

After Hu Zhen left the palace, he secretly didn't care about everything, so he went to the big island of Hawaii and various islands to visit and enjoy the wonderful sun and beaches of Hawaii.

This King Kalava originally liked to make friends with political dignitaries and celebrities from all walks of life all over the world, and after Hu Zhen came, he talked with Kalakaua behind closed doors for an hour, without attracting much attention.

But that night, the Hawaiian palace was imperceptibly increased by more than 100 guards. It was Hu Zhen who sent a special combat team led by Ma Shaohao to protect King Lacarava.

In addition to increasing the number of more than 100 guards, several large carriages entered the palace every day, and many wooden boxes were brought in, according to the news in the palace, it was said that the king liked sculptures and crafts.

What is a sculpture craft?

How many are there?

So big?

This inevitably attracted the attention of those who were under the arrangement of political opponents to monitor the palace.

But while attention was focused on the royal palace, King Kalakaua suddenly announced that he would increase the king's guard to 3,000 men, mainly for Native Hawaiians and poor Asians loyal to the king.

Because the king's opponents all know that after the implementation of the "bayonet constitution" that they forced the king to agree to, the king's financial power was restricted, and now not to mention that the king has to recruit thousands of troops, even the king's travel expenses to leave Hawaii and go to the United States are gone, where is the money to recruit thousands of people and buy weapons and training equipment?

When the king's opponents were about to see the king's jokes, in one day more than 3,000 healthy young men came to the palace, and although they did not have uniform clothing, they were full of spirit and vigor, and if they were strictly trained and managed, they would be a formidable fighting force.

When the opposition did not know what was going on, the King's Guard, as if by juggling, began to stand guard and train with rifles and loaded guns.

Someone who was interested came closer to observe it and found that the gun was a new Commission 1888 rifle from Germany!

It turned out that Hu Zhen did not want to expose the weapons of the Huaxia Army on such an occasion, but purchased 3,000 of the latest standard rifles from Germany through foreign trade channels and secretly handed them over to King Kalakau's guards.

The king's actions made the opposition very nervous, and the situation in Hawaii was turbulent, and its direction made the nerves of all parties tense, and the decisive battle between the two sides was about to break out. (To be continued.) )
