Chapter Eighty-Nine: Intricacies

Since he was injured in 43, in addition to the back of his head, Zhou Nan was also injured by broken glass to his throat and vocal cords. Since then, his voice has been relatively low and hoarse, so he is not suitable for singing.

But at this time, no one commented on whether Zhou Nan's voice was suitable for singing, but was attracted by the lyrics he sang and the melody he sang.

Although the melody of this song is simple, it is precisely because of the simplicity that it is catchy. The lyrics are written in a majestic manner, and they are also closely connected to Middle-earth.

From the capital to Pontianak, the straight-line distance is just about 4,000 kilometers, facing 8,000 miles of mountains and rivers. The 5,000-year-old wind and rain is a metaphor for the history of the Chinese nation's tribulations.

We have left the suffering in our hearts, the same blood and the same seed, and we will open up together in the future and dreams......

Hand in hand, you and I walk forward with our heads held high......

Don't blame the past, cheer up, unite and move forward together. This song really sang to everyone's hearts, and on the street outside where Zhou Nan couldn't see, countless people had already followed him and sang loudly behind him.

When he stopped singing, everyone applauded, and at this time, the sound of the loud chorus outside reached the room.

The same tears, the same pain

The suffering of the past remains in our hearts

The same blood, the same species

There are still dreams in the future, and we will open up together

The same tears, the same pain

The suffering of the past remains in our hearts

The same blood, the same species

There are still dreams in the future, and we will open up together

Hand in hand, you and I walk forward with our heads held high......

Zhou Nan walked out of the broadcast studio, everyone got out of the way, Zhou Nan walked to the window, listening to this shocking voice, his eyes couldn't help but get wet.

The crowd congested on the street saw Zhou Nan appear at the window, and the singing voice quickly turned into a thunderous cheer. Zhou Nan couldn't help but stretch out his right hand and waved his hand to them, and the cheers became more intense......

Popler They didn't know if they should step forward at this time to stop Zhou Nan from appearing in front of so many people without protection, but they couldn't move at all.

Zhou Nan waved his hand, and there was a deafening cheer below, and another wave, another deafening cheer. Zhou Nan's arm seemed to have become a switch, controlling the emotions of all Chinese people......

A group of elderly Chinese leaders were also excited when they watched this scene, and they looked at each other with a smile of relief on their faces.

The people's hearts are available!

The Dutch's plan for statehood was actually very simple and crude, they didn't pay much attention to the actual situation, but divided it into seven countries according to the approximate proportion of the entrance.

But in reality, on the tens of thousands of islands of the East Indies, many ethnic groups are mixed. Every place has people of all nationalities, like the Chinese, all over almost every inhabited island.

The most Dutch agents, the Chinese and Indians helped manage tens of millions of natives, and almost every large city worked well under the management of the Chinese.

Now, the Dutch divide the barren Borneo into the Chinese, and although there are more Bangka Belitung and Natuna Islands, these places are very barren.

Let the Chinese who controlled the entire East Indies abandon their industries in other places and come to Borneo to develop, only a few Chinese are happy, but many more Chinese are dissatisfied.

However, I have seen the temptation of this sweet apple, and the contradiction has not yet erupted, but when it comes to the huge interests of the Chinese in other regions, the contradiction will erupt sooner or later.

These Chinese have forgotten what they have suffered before, they only think that the Dutch have withdrawn from management, then the economy here is controlled by the Chinese, all the indigenous people need to depend on them, they should be able to be in charge.

At a time when the great powers of the United States and the Soviet Union had not yet formally exerted their strength in the East Indies, and when the natives had not yet raised their butcher's knives, there were many optimistic Chinese.

They wanted to bet on both sides, and the average Chinese were dyed red, and the other half followed in the footsteps of the West, but in the end they became victims.

Zhou Nan knew this, but these things that did not happen could not be a reason for him to convince these Chinese, so from the moment he decided to come to Asia, he had to start building momentum, and then try to use public opinion to persuade everyone not to step on two boats.

No one can rely on it, and it is possible to survive with difficulty, and if you lean to the West, it is also possible to survive with difficulty. But the result of stepping on two boats will only be a sacrifice.

Zhou Nan did not want to see it again, and ten years later, the blood of hundreds of thousands of Chinese stained every piece of land in the East Indies. Countless Chinese have left their hometowns and lived incognito in order to survive with difficulty.

The Dutch headquarters in Pontianak had only one regimental setting, and after the division of Borneo into Chinese, most of the garrisons here were withdrawn to Java Island to fight the Javanese, leaving only one battalion of about 400 men.

However, they also took away the police and vassal armies of other nationalities, leaving behind the Chinese police, and their training team also helped the Chinese train more than 5,000 Chinese soldiers in the military camp in Hexinzhou.

These 5,000 people are only one place in Pontianak, in addition to Pontianak, there are also Yamaguchiyang, Sam Fa, the largest city in Borneo, Majin, Balikpapan on the east coast, and Penang on Bangka Island, all of which have 5,000 soldiers for training.

In addition to the 30,000-strong army, the Dutch also helped the Chinese train 1,500 naval soldiers in a deep harbor on the island of Ambuna.

With a population of more than 5 million Chinese, there is not much pressure to equip an army of 50,000 people. These more than 30,000 people are just a seed, and in the future, the Chinese will need at least 100,000 troops to protect their territory and sea areas.

In the constitution that Zhou Nan helped the Chinese formulate, in addition to quoting a lot of Dutch law, he also borrowed Swiss law in many places.

In the future, this Chinese country will definitely be compulsory military service, every man must serve in the barracks for at least two years, and in the future, the whole people will have to be trained in the military.

The Dutch attached great importance to the arrival of Zhou Nan, and the soldiers of the whole battalion arranged three layers of defense, and pulled out the trained Chinese cadets of the barracks, and controlled the entire city tightly, so that no one had the opportunity to attack Zhou Nan.

Their Commander-in-Chief Attlee and Navy Commander Simon Spor also flew from Jakarta to Pontianak, and although they nominally welcomed the domestic delegation and the Prime Minister's envoy, in reality, the main guest this time was Zhou Nan alone.

Unifying the Chinese ideology and front is the most important task for the Netherlands at present, because they can no longer hold on to it on their own.

It is not on the battlefield, because the Dutch now control almost all of the East Indies, leaving only the Yogyakarta region of Central Java and a small area of southern Sumatra still under Javanese control.

Almost all the big cities, the ports were controlled by the Dutch, and the Javanese guerrillas no longer had any military counterattack capabilities.

However, because of the countless pressures exerted by both the United States and the Soviet Union, the Dutch government could no longer hold on.

Zhou Nan actually knew this situation very well, because in the original history, the Dutch got everything on the battlefield and captured the leaders of the Javanese.

However, under pressure from the United States, they finally had to let these Javanes go and withdraw from the East Indies.

This is mainly because of the revolutionary export of the Soviet Union and the influence of the Chinese guerrillas.

Although the Chinese in Southeast Asia are the merchant class and the charge d'affaires class, they are full of enthusiasm for communism because they are influenced by the ideological tide of the mainland.

They are not afraid of heaven and earth, they fight with the Americans today, and the British tomorrow. In the two years from '45 to '46 alone, the Red Party went from less than 50,000 members to more than half a million.

These people have only one goal, which is to build a country that belongs to the Chinese.

But their ideological level is too low, and they have become guns in the hands of others, but they don't know it. They fought the British in West Malaysia, and in northern Borneo, over the course of a year, caused 400 violent incidents, an average of more than one per day.

Because of the large number of Chinese, it was easy to hide, and the British only knew that it was the Chinese who were fighting against them, but they could not grasp the main force.

However, Britain and the United States are both old world-class powers, and they are very good at political battles. They gave the Chinese a lot of promises, drew a big pie, and stabilized the situation.

Just when the Chinese were looking forward to the good days ahead, revenge came. The entire 60s is the history of blood and tears of all Southeast Asian Chinese, but most of the reasons for this are caused by their own people.

Lacking a far-sighted strategic vision, he pushed himself into a desperate situation step by step, and his own people's promises were not fulfilled, and he sacrificed them as victims.

Zhou Nan wants to change this situation, first strive for a stable foundation for the Chinese, with this foundation, the more than 10 million Chinese in Southeast Asia can have a real basis to participate in the game.

Without a country, it will always be rootless.

The Dutch were anxious that the Americans were running out of patience and wanted to borrow the strength of the Javanese, the largest in Southeast Asia, to fight the Soviet Red Tide.

The crossroads of this world must not fall into the hands of the Soviets. But if they did, they would have to sacrifice the interests of the Dutch and make the Javanese independent, and then they would be willing to work together against the Soviet Union, rather than unite with it.

Of course, because of the emergence of Zhou Nan, the international situation in this era has been slightly different. In the previous life, the Netherlands established fifteen puppet regimes at once to form the "Federal Republic of Indonesia", and then formed the "Dutch-Indian Federation" with the two Dutch colonies in the Americas.

But in this life, they accepted the influence of Zhou Nan, and from the very beginning, it was decided to form seven sovereign states in the name of the independence of each nation. He retains only the diplomatic and economic rights of the federation and completely leaves the internal affairs to the countries.

In this way, neither the United States nor the Soviet Union can affect the entire situation by co-opting one country now, so the pressure on the Netherlands is actually not as great as in another life.

There is another important reason for this, that is, because the Chinese guerrillas saw the establishment of a Chinese state, they were not as fierce as the resistance in their previous lives.

At this time, both the United States and Britain saw the advantages of winning over the Chinese...... That is, the Chinese are wealthy and highly educated, which makes it easier for them to continue to exert influence in the region.

For this reason, the importance of Zhou Nan is self-evident.
