Chapter 174: Hawaii Strategy II

"However, we are not without a chance, but this is a last chance, and if we don't take it, we will lose the opportunity to control Hawaii forever. _﹍8w=w`w-.`y`a=w-e`n·8·. =comThis Hawaii strategy is not simply relying on the use of military force to forcibly snatch it, but to work together from all aspects, so as to have the opportunity to control Hawaii in our hands forever, or let Hawaii and us unite and integrate, so as to achieve the goal of controlling the entire Pacific heartland! ”

Listening to Hu Zhen say this, everyone knew that Hu Zhen must have a plan to completely control Hawaii, so they stopped talking and pricked up their ears to listen to Hu Zhen continue.

"Our intelligence officers have settled in Hawaii, and our diplomats have signed an agreement with the Kingdom of Hawaii on the pretext of providing a transit port for the Chinese workers who have been evacuated from the country, and have obtained a basis for entering Hawaii. Now what we're going to do is ......"

"Sir is going to Hawaii in person?" When everyone heard Hu Zhen's plan, they were all surprised: "This is not appropriate, the industrial construction work in Nanyang has just begun, and some natives are also ready to move, Mr. must not stay away from Nanyang!" ”

Hu Zhen waved his hand: "For such an important matter as Hawaii, there are not only the garrisons of the United States, but also the forces of England, France and other countries, and it is not suitable for anyone to go!" Only by going there myself can I better grasp the strength of the treatment! ”

Hu Zhen is going to take the nuclear submarine to the powerful fleet that will defeat the Mi army. It's w'w·w·. `

Everyone is still very uneasy: "Besides, there are strong enemies such as England, France, and Germany in this South Sea, once there is any accident, how can this be good?" ”

Hu Zhen insisted on his opinion uncompromisingly:

"Can you rest assured that we don't have radio technology to communicate? This is a technical condition that the Europeans do not have, and we can communicate with each other at any time. Our intelligence services have been constantly monitoring the changes in various countries, and recently we have set up intelligence stations in the Suez Canal and the Cape of Good Hope in Cape Town, Africa. What else is there to worry about? The homelands of England, France, and Germany are far away in Europe. I have returned from Hawaii urgently, and their warships and reinforcements may not have reached the South Seas. ”

Seeing that Hu Zhen insisted on his opinion, everyone asked, "Then what is the gentleman going to bring those people and weapons to Hawaii?" ”

Hu Zhen wrenched his fingers and said, "This time I went to Hawaii." Diplomatic work is particularly important, of course, we must bring Niu Quyun from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Li Haoran of Zhuwang Longtang Li is very good at communicating and dealing with the natives, and I must also invite his old man to go with him, and in addition, we must need strong armed force support to make things happen. However, I must not weaken the defense force in the South Seas, and I will take with me four cruisers, three destroyers, and three transport and supply ships under the personal command of Zheng Dingbang, more than 2,500 sailors, 2,000 members of the 6th Naval Squadron, and more than 1,500 special combat teams personally led by Ma Shaohao! ”

Of course, Hu Zhen will go to Hawaii with him to bring an omnipotent nuclear submarine, but this cannot be told to anyone. _Bar_w·w·w·.·

"When will it come out?"

"Tomorrow!"

"So fast?"

"Seeing that the people of the United States are about to control the whole of Hawaii, we can't wait any longer, Bing Guishen, we must come out tomorrow!"

King Kalakaua of the Kingdom of Hawaii is the rarest king in the world. He came to power through popular elections, and in order to seek the road of strengthening the country and enriching the people, he spent eight months traveling around the major powers of the world, and in addition to studying the electoral systems and constitutional monarchies of Europe and the United States, he also carried out economic construction according to the European and American models.

But the Kingdom of Hawaii is a small country after all, consisting of 132 islands in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the territory of the whole country is only 1665o square kilometers, and the population was originally more than 500,000, but under the invasion of the plague virus brought by the white Europeans, the population is less than 200,000. Although a large number of people were later replenished, and the population remained around Samurai Wan, most of them were Europeans and Asians, and the real native population was not dominant.

The main economy of the region is the cultivation of sugar cane, bananas, pineapples and the sugar industry. But it is controlled by the people of the United States, and the main export direction is also the United States.

Sadly, unlike what some people in later generations imagined, Hawaii completely adopted the democratically elected system designated by the United States, and the United States would be friendly with Hawaii forever, but in fact, the United States still refused to let Hawaii go.

The main reason why the United States is unwilling to let go of Kalakaua is. Kalakaua wanted to establish a powerful Polynesian alliance among the island nations of the Pacific, and on this basis, to create a Greater Polynesian Empire across the Pacific.

With such an act, can the United States still tolerate the king of Kalakau?

So in 1887, under the manipulation of the Chinese people, the Republican Party of Hawaii came to power and coerced King David Kalakaua to sign the Bayonet Constitution (Baynet). In this constitution, the king was stripped of much of his political power, large sums of the kingdom's revenues were diverted to fund elections, and, quite ironically, only 14,000 Hawaiians, Americans, and Europeans with sufficient wealth were allowed to vote, while the poor natives and Asians numbered half a million without the right to vote. The Reform Party cabinet also abolished the system of publicly-funded study abroad, depriving Hawaii of the possibility of further development by improving the quality of the population.

If this historical trajectory continues, the Kingdom of Hawaii will become the fiftieth state of the United States, but in this time and space, Hu Zhen appeared, and this thing would not have happened.

Hu Zhen arranged the internal affairs of the Huaxia Guild, said goodbye to Han Yuqing and Zhong Ling's two wives, and led the fleet out in January 1888.

At this time, the Hawaiian king Kalakaua was already an ant on a hot pan.

Kalakaua tried his best to seek support, but the Hawaiian country was weak and weak, and it was the people of the United States who controlled the lifeblood of the Hawaiian economy, and the main members of the rifle team of more than 1,500 Hawaiian military forces were composed of white Europeans and Americans, and after the implementation of the "Bayonet Constitution", even the king's financial power was deprived, and all the king's decisions had to go through the legislature controlled by the Americans.

The arrival of the fleet led by Hu Zhen brought a glimmer of hope to King Kalakau, who had no financial power and had to pay out of his own pocket and held a grand ceremony to welcome Hu Zhen's arrival.

After doing enough work to save face, it was time for the two to have a private meeting.

Hu Zhen and Kalakaua retreated, stepped into the secret room, closed the doors and windows, and began a substantive meeting.

As soon as Hu Zhen opened his mouth, he went straight to the point, and said in English: "Dear Your Majesty, I am here to save you!" ”

Kalakaua was surprised by the fact that he was the only country in the world to have traveled around the world and was very familiar with English, and he also responded in English: "Ah, dear Chief Hu, how do you know my situation?" (To be continued.) )
