readx; The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire sent a note to France, in which it stated: "If France does not cease its intervention in the Vietnamese system, it will be regarded as a provocation to the Chinese Empire." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

At the same time, on May 3, the South China Sea Fleet of the Chinese Empire sailed warships to Ha Long Bay to conduct a demonstration of force.

The French political axe did not realize that the abolition of the Vietnamese imperial examination would cause such a violent reaction from China, and the French Vietnamese governor Sha Luo was immediately panicked.

It seems to be kind of aware that I have done something stupid.

In the face of the Chinese [***] ship sailing to Ha Long Bay, the French and Vietnamese colonial political axes immediately reported to the French mainland. On the Sino-Vietnamese border, the South China Military Region has begun to gather troops on the Sino-Vietnamese border.

The intention is obvious, if France does not give an explanation, then the result will be the outbreak of war.

The mind of the Vietnamese Emperor Nguyen Phuc Chang was also enlivened by the rise of China, and the Chinese Empire had already sent personnel to contact him.

But Nguyen Phuc Chang still lacked enough courage before.

At this time, the French wanted to abolish the imperial examination, which immediately caused a huge storm in Vietnam.

The Confucian literati in Vietnam asked Nguyen Phuc Chang to go to Shang Guo to ask the king to drive the French away, and Shang Guo had been revived by this time and had enough power to defend against the French.

Moreover, the fact that the upper country is interfering in Vietnam now proves that the upper country still intends to protect Vietnam, which is a good momentum for Vietnam.

Immediately, Nguyen Phuc Chang sent an envoy to Shang Guo to seek protection.

It has been almost 60 years since France became a protectorate, and France has been exploited for the past 60 years.

Nguyen Phuc Chang felt that it didn't matter, he was not a monarch who wanted to revitalize the country, he just wanted to live a good life, and France's abolition of the imperial examination system was undoubtedly reducing his authority.

This has already harmed his interests, so he thought of China, the former suzerainty of Vietnam!

…… The diplomacy between China and France also reached a point of contradiction, and France had to face the problem that China, which had become stronger, would inevitably begin to seek to restore the former vassal state.

Among them, Vietnam and Korea were the two major vassal states that were invaded and occupied.

At this time, China has not recognized its interests in North Korea, and it is obvious that it will also use its knife against North Korea in the future.

And in Vietnam, France is clearly unable to confront China militarily.

China, as the former suzerainty of Vietnam, can get the support of the Vietnamese people in the war, and at the same time, China can mobilize millions of troops to invest in the Vietnam War, while France can only invest 50,000 at most, and if there is enough time to prepare, it can only increase the number of troops to Vietnam by 500,000 at most, barely reaching 600,000.

However, it is extremely uneconomical to fight China for the sake of a Vietnam, and there is no chance of victory.

Militarily, as the Chinese media put it: "The French colonial army in Asia had a very low combat effectiveness, and when they expanded into China, even the Chinese irregular troops were able to defeat them, but the weakness and incompetence of the Manchus made the French repeatedly gain an inch in Vietnam." ”

The Sino-French War ended with the victory of the local Chinese armed forces, but did not reap the fruits of victory.

The reason for this was the intervention of the Manchus.

Liu Yongfu died in 1917, but Ding Huai is still alive, this famous Sino-French war general called "Napoleon of the East" and "Flying General" by the French army, on May 8, 1919, was appointed by the Chinese Empire as the deputy commander of the South China Military Region, with full authority to command the possible outbreak of the Sino-French Vietnam War.

Ding Huai's inauguration is a gesture.

France was therefore extremely passive militarily, and France was not willing to go against China at this time, especially when Britain and the United States proposed to encircle China, France's active surname was not high, and France was the only country trying to save relations with Russia.

China proposed to France that France withdraw from Vietnam, but could keep its colonies in Cambodia and Laowo, and that China could provide loans to France to help France recover its economy.

Although France invaded China, China was facing an environment of encirclement at this time, so it was not bad to use France as a breakthrough.

Lending to France is just a gesture, to give the French a step down, so as not to make relations too stiff.

But the fact of the French invasion of China cannot be changed, and in the future the French must be prepared to be cows, and there is no doubt that the loans provided to France will be repaid.

The Chinese Empire was tantamount to giving the French two paths to choose from, one could get a loan and get by on face. One is to start fighting, and when the time comes, if it fails, not only will it lose face, but the colonies of Indochina will not want to be retained.

One heaven and one hell, which one do you choose, French?

The French political axe was hesitant to start a war on the Indochina Peninsula, and France's only victory was counted on by the support of Britain and the United States.

However, Britain obviously had no choice, and the United States tried its best to encourage France to confront China on the Indochina Peninsula, but when it came to money and soldiers, the United States immediately kept silent about soldiers, and when it came to money, the United States only said that it could lend money to France.

Loans are to be repaid.

It is obviously impossible for the United States to send troops to the Indochina Peninsula, and the Yankees are not unaware of China's military strength in Asia, and if the United States sends troops to the Indochina Peninsula, it will be tantamount to declaring war on China.

The fruits of the First World War had not yet been digested, and the two thugs, Britain and France, had not yet recovered their strength, and the Yankees obviously did not want to get bogged down in the quagmire of war.

Therefore, the Yankees coaxed.

At this moment, news came from China that the Emperor of Vietnam had sent an envoy to China to ask China to send troops to drive away French rule.

Everything turned out to be extremely unfavorable for France.

After hesitating, the French political axe did not listen to the deception of the United States, but began to sit down at the negotiating table with China, hoping to reduce losses through negotiations.

Because of its military weakness, France has not been sharp enough at the negotiating table.

After nearly half a month of negotiations, China and France finally reached the "Sino-French Vietnam Agreement," which stipulates that Vietnam will break away from French protection, withdraw all military and administrative organs, and recognize China's suzerainty status over Vietnam and China's suzerainty over Korea.

At the same time, China recognized France's colonial dominance in Cambodia and Laowo, while France opened up Cambodia and Laos and allowed Chinese capital to invest in Cambodia and Laos.

China recognizes the presence of French capital in Vietnam, and the two sides will build an economic integration zone in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, which will be called the East Indochina Peninsula Economy.

There are no tariffs in the economy, but there are tariffs on French and Chinese goods entering the economy.

On the Siam issue, France could not leave Britain in reaching an agreement with China, because it was not included in the agreement.

The kingdoms of Siam and Kokang belong to the southeastern peninsula economies, which are also economically integrated. However, at this time, Britain and France were trying to squeeze Chinese capital out of Siam, but China's reaction was relatively strong, so the three parties are still negotiating.

In the next three years, China will provide France with a billion-dollar loan for economic recovery and construction, with a medium interest rate, neither high nor low, and it is a time when France is short of money after the war.

This loan is the main one, and the French can say at home and nationals, although we gave up Vietnam, we got the loan from the Chinese.

The French political axe can allow newspapers, weekly magazines, radio and other public opinion to publicize its wisdom, so as to avoid the political responsibility of the political axe.

It's like covering up your shame!

This loan is just a fig leaf for China to France.

France wanted China to sell them a batch of high-yielding seeds and enter into a long-term supply contract with China, but China did not agree.

Clearly, agriculture is an area that China wants to continue to monopolize.

For this reason, the French government had no choice but to understand how these high-yielding seeds were studied, and their French agricultural research institute had carefully studied these seeds, but as in other countries, they found nothing.

After the signing of the agreement between China and France, the head of the Chinese Empire canonized the Vietnamese Emperor Nguyen Phuc Chang and canonized him as the 'King of Cochin'.

The county king is a level lower than the vassal king, and it has always been the rank of the Vietnamese emperor, which formed a system in ancient China.

Cochin is the ancient name of Vietnam, which was given by the Qing court and was therefore abolished.

Nguyen Phuc Chang looked extremely happy that the French were finally getting out of Vietnam. The personnel already sent by the Chinese Empire are already on the way, and will soon reach Jiaozhi.

The Chinese Empire intends to set up a 'Department of Sinicization of Cochin' in Jiaozhi, which is mainly responsible for the in-depth sinicization of Jiaozhi.

The first is to popularize Chinese and Chinese characters in Jiaozhi, and at the same time to exclude the dialects of Jiaozhi, as well as the languages and scripts left by the native and French, from the education system.

At the same time, this department also has a certain amount of interference power, and can interfere with any decree of the king of Cochin. The Chinese Empire will mobilize 30,000 military and police officers into Jiaozhi, and these military and police will be under the command of the 'Jiaozhi Sinicization Department'.

Obviously, the Chinese Empire does not intend to incorporate Cochin into its territory in the near future, but intends to let Cochin establish a country and become a little brother of the Chinese Empire.

Although the strength of these little brothers is not strong, they are huge enough to a certain extent.

Vietnam is a relatively special situation, because French capital still exists in Vietnam, but between Chinese capital and French capital, there is not much gap between the two sides in terms of financial resources, although France has just come out of the first world congress war, but after all, there is a foundation, the war will not French capitalists lose too much money, but may make money.

But after all, it is impossible to make as much money as China, and it is impossible to sell the arms produced in China at such an expensive price.

But technologically, French capital is obviously not as strong as China, so Chinese capital has a competitive advantage over French capital in Vietnam.

France's compromise on the Vietnam issue made Britain and the United States extremely depressed, and they even jumped up and down to contain China's expansion.

The more China expands, the less likely it is to expand.

For an island country like Yuben, the sense of crisis is very strong. What's more, there is a huge country that is growing stronger and stronger.

The main reason behind this France's instigation was that Britain was instigated, and the United States followed Britain's instigation, but Ben was also instigated.

Today's China is already a nail that the great powers dare not touch easily. No country will dare to compete with China in the Asian region until it is fully prepared.

Just as South America is the backyard of the United States, China is the hegemon in Asia, and China's influence has extended to a very terrifying level from Taiwan and Sakhalin Island in the east, Russia in the north, Indonesia in the south, and Turkey in the west.

This is also the reason why Britain and the United States are afraid that if China is allowed to develop like this, China will unify the world island.

At this time, China has at its disposal an unimaginable amount of resources.

A country with a territory of more than 16 million square kilometers, plus Russia's more than 10 million square kilometers, China has become the country with the largest number of resources in the world.

China doesn't even need to import as much as it needs to do in terms of resources, but it still maintains large imports of resources, in China's official parlance, to balance the trade deficit.

The trade deficit is too large, and it is also bad for China's export industry.

Other countries sell raw materials to China, and China sells goods to them to maintain a balance, but the deficit is still relatively large, and the annual inflow of precious metals into China is still huge.

At this time, China's foreign exports really developed light industry, and in terms of heavy industry, after ten years of development, it has just reached the level of satisfying domestic demand.

However, China's heavy industry has a lot of fist products, and the fist products of light industry are a lot of them, basically the best light industry goods in the world can be bought from China, and the price is relatively affordable.

China relies on imports for one-third of its major industrial raw materials, while it imports less than five percent of its agricultural raw materials.

However, China's domestic raw material production capacity is increasing, and at the same time, it is constantly buying cheap raw materials from the world.

The reason why the international price of raw materials is so cheap is mainly that China mines these raw materials all over the world, and the raw material producers of other countries want to raise prices, while China does not buy their raw materials, but goes to other countries to continue to mine cheaper raw materials.

In order to stay afloat, these producers are unlikely to shut down or keep the raw materials mined for too long, which can lead to losses.

In the case of iron ore, China's iron ore reserves are enough for China to keep the metallurgical industry running without importing raw materials for half a year.

With raw material reserves, the market's bargaining advantage has come.

The existence of a bargaining advantage allows China to obtain a steady stream of low-cost raw materials, while China has put a lot of resources away from exploiting them.

It is also impossible for China to completely rely on resource imports, after all, after the start of the war, China must build up the part of the production capacity that depends on imports, if the domestic raw material production capacity is not developed, the war will be over as soon as it is fought, and it will be too late to build at that time.

As for the large reserves, it is not very cost-effective to have too many reserves.

The backlog is too serious to be cost-effective.

At this time, two-thirds of China's raw material supply was mined domestically, or from countries that would not be able to ship raw materials to China because of the start of the war.

In Russia, for example, mines have been built in many parts of the country, and oil wells have been drilled.

With the continuous increase of China's domestic demand, the demand for raw materials has also begun to become very strong, so the internal industrial and mining industry has also developed rapidly.

The industrial and mining industries in overseas regions are also developing.

It is thought that two-thirds of the world's resources are seized by itself, and one-third are dependent on imports.

With such huge resources, such a large population, and advanced industrial technology, China has become a nightmare for developed countries in Europe and the United States.

Britain and the United States said that the three major powers found the encirclement of China very tricky at this time.

China's army expansion is still ongoing, and China's navy has broken out of several major island chains and is running around the waters of the western Pacific and Southeast Asia.

The United States has also discovered that China's capital has begun to grow rapidly, from the initial immature stage, to the development of capital operation to mature capital.

In particular, Chinese capital is expanding everywhere at this time, the most typical of which is the expansion of those backward countries.

Chinese capital is growing through its own advantages.

China has not only big capitalists, but also a whole bunch of small businessmen engaged in business activities in countries around the world.

From the original Chinese restaurant, barber shop, and tailor shop, it has developed into a huge group involving many industries.

These groups all have one characteristic, that is, they are unable to strengthen the war strength of other countries, and they can attract money for China.

And these industries have been born with the advancement of technology in various fields in China.

Chinese have used these technologies to quickly roll out a network of profits in various countries.

For example, China designs new clothes every year, and Chinese people in various countries around the world have begun to open clothing stores, these new clothes are very trendy and fashionable, and are loved by young people from all over the world.

For example, the Chinese have developed a new electronic sound technology, and the Chinese have used this technology to create a dance hall with a perfect system and leading technology.

The Chinese create one or two typical projects, then formulate a norm, and then attract Chinese people from all over the world to join the business.

Through the China Huaxia Association, this kind of joining has formed a good way for overseas small Chinese businessmen to make a fortune.

Among them, China's overseas small Chinese businessmen are most engaged in agriculture, entertainment, service industry, retail industry, catering industry, and medical industry.

Dahua businessmen, on the other hand, are engaged in the financial industry and manufacturing.

The manufacturing industry is also unable to enhance the war capabilities of other countries, and in terms of mining, China is adjusting the layout of overseas mining.

For example, the mines in the United States did not continue to develop, but were sold.

Because once war breaks out, the production capacity of these mines will be converted into the war potential of the United States, and it is not cost-effective to mine in the United States.

As for the consumption of American resources, the resources needed in this era are not too many, so they cannot be consumed before the war.

It makes sense to consume it after World War II.

In contrast, they don't have so many technical advantages, so they can only send women overseas to earn foreign exchange.

The island nation is so poor that it can only sell itself.
