Zhang Meng and his henchmen thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to follow the example of the American ancestors on the Mayflower and establish a new country on Vavau Island, the Tang Empire.

That's right, it's called this name, only this name can reflect the strength, and it is also the expectation of the Tang Dynasty.

However, this is just a name, and at the moment Zhang Meng and Zhang Jiajun are still under the name of the Kingdom of Tonga and belong to the citizens of Tonga.

But this is precisely their advantage, without the legal status of this Tongan national, Zhang Meng and their establishment of a new country on the territory of Tonga as outsiders would be an invasion.

The good thing at the moment is that Zhang Meng and his subordinates have the status of Tongan nationals, which is one of the conditions in exchange for Zhang Meng to support the Aprado family to seize the throne of Tonga. With this identity as a Tongan national, even if Zhang Meng wants to overthrow the Aprado Dynasty, it is only a civil war in Tonga, which is an internal matter in Tonga, and the international community can't say anything even if it knows that Zhang Meng is a dove occupying the magpie's nest.

The only obstacle is the United Kingdom, because Tonga is still a British protectorate, a member of the Commonwealth of Britain, so every government of Tonga has to be recognized by the United Kingdom.

Fortunately, Zhang Meng has thought carefully and comprehensively, and Sir Constine, the supreme commissioner of the eight Central Pacific countries, has been completely bought by Zhang Meng, and now Zhang Meng is using his strong financial power to open up a relationship channel for Sir Constance to open up the relationship channel for the election of British parliamentarians, and Constance is about to leave Fiji and return to China to enter the British Parliament as a member of the British Parliament.

To this end, Zhang Meng personally went to Fiji to meet Sir Justin and have in-depth exchanges with him.

Of course, this is another deal.

Justin is still quite friendly to Zhang Meng, after all, Zhang Meng fulfilled his promise to help Justin become a member of the British House of Lords, so that he can leave the Central Pacific Islands to live without, and no longer see the faces of despicable aborigines.

Upon learning of Zhang Meng's intention to come to him, Justin was slightly surprised, but quickly regained his composure.

As early as when Zhang Meng supported the Aprado family to overthrow the Tongan royal family, he was mentally prepared for this. In his opinion, Zhang Meng's investment money cannot be made on the desert island of Tonga, which is poor and white, and he seems to have no other possibility except to be a king and have a good time.

However, Justin had heard of Zhang Meng's actions on Vava'u Island, and although he was too lazy to bother with Zhang Meng's affairs, if Zhang Meng's military power was against the British Empire, then he would have to suffer with it.

"I just want to know what the tens of thousands of troops you train on Vava'u Island want to do? If it's just to deal with one Tonga, I think the five hundred Zhang family security regiments you sent before will be enough, Mr. Zhang. ”

Zhang Meng knew that Constance was not interested in Tonga at all, he must have been worried that Zhang Meng would be detrimental to the British Empire, so he reassured him: "Sir Constance doesn't have to worry, my target is China, and these trained soldiers will help me fight the world in China in the future." We are only using Tonga as a base for the time being, and when the time comes, we will be powerful and will not pose any threat to the British Empire, on the contrary, I guarantee that Tonga is and will remain a protectorate of the British Empire, a loyal member of the British Commonwealth, and will never damage the interests of the British Empire. ”

After receiving Zhang Meng's assurance, Justin was more relieved, so his face was full of smiles again.

Zhang Meng continued: "As you know, Tonga has no resources in this place, and it is impossible for me to stay here for a long time. In the future, my army and I will return to China, and I am confident that we will continue to cooperate with the British Empire, and it will be of great benefit to your country and to you. ”

Constance nodded, he believed Zhang Meng's words, this Tonga was just Zhang Meng's temporary base, and he would definitely return to China in the future to compete with other warlords for world dominance.

For Constant, if Zhang Meng's force can be used by him, it will be very useful for his future political future.

However, as an old politician, Justin has to have the means to manipulate Zhang Meng.

"You must know that your support for the Aprado family to overthrow the Tongan regime has already made many members of the Imperial Diet unhappy, if it weren't for me......"

A large bag full of money was placed on the coffee table, and Zhang Meng slowly pushed it in front of Constant's eyes.

At a glance, Constance knew that the big bag of money was fifty or sixty thousand pounds, and he suddenly snickered in his heart, but he pretended not to care and said, "Mr. Zhang thinks that this is something that can be solved with money?" ”

Zhang Meng smiled and said: "Your Excellency, don't misunderstand, I learned that you are about to return to China as a member of Congress, this is a little bit of my heart, and it should be the ticket prepared for you to return to China." ”

Constance nodded and immediately smiled: "I like you Chinese the most, generous!" ”

Zhang Meng despised the fat man in front of him in his heart, but he had to smile and say: "I will help you run for mayor of London, please help me with the Tonga issue!" ”

Hearing that Zhang Meng helped in the London mayoral election, Constin suddenly blossomed in his heart, you must know that the amount of funds needed to run for the mayor of London is very large, Constance has found a lot of people to solicit sponsorship but it is not enough, if Zhang Meng is willing to pay for help, it would be the best. You must know that once you succeed, it is equivalent to opening the door to run for prime minister in the future, so the temptation for Justin is extremely strong.

Justin coughed a few times to hide his ecstasy, and said, "This—though it's a little difficult, I think it should be fine if I explain it to my friends in the council." ”

Zhang Meng immediately thanked: "Then there is Your Excellency Lao!" My troops and I are currently legal citizens of Tonga, I think this is our internal matter, in order to be able to establish a democratic and civilized country like the British Empire, in order to improve the human rights situation in Tonga, it is just for us to overthrow the current Aprado dictatorship, and your country should strongly support it! ”

Zhang Meng's words were very appropriate, and neither the British government nor Justin personally could find any reason to oppose it. What's more, taking people's money and eliminating disasters with others, Justin has to do his best to help Zhang Meng speak for the sake of his political career.

"I will postpone my return to China for a few days, and you must first create a fait accompli in Tonga to overthrow Aprado and win the support of the Tongan people, so that I can return to my country and give a reasonable account to the parliament."

"One day is enough! There will be a special plane back to the UK at this time tomorrow! ”

Constance was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, praising Zhang Meng for being able to do things.

When asked what kind of country Zhang Meng would establish, Zhang Meng initially said that he would establish a democratic republic, but was immediately opposed by Constant.

It turns out that for Britain, since Britain itself is a county lord constitutional system, all her protectorates are countries with county lord constitutional system as the form of government.

Even so, the Kingdom of Tonga pursues a constitutional monarchy. Therefore, it is far easier for Zhang Meng to establish a democratic republic than it is to build a constitutional monarchy empire, because a constitutional monarchy will make the British feel close and politically supportive.

At the same time, Tonga's constitutional monarchy has been well implemented. If there is a sudden change to a republic, the people of Tongans may not be happy, they will feel strange and panicked.

Zhang Meng himself is a lazy person, thinking that changing to a republic requires a lot of energy to amend the constitution and laws, and if it is a constitutional monarchy, it is much easier, just apply the laws of the Kingdom of Tonga or modify individual articles slightly.

Zhang Meng agreed to Constant's proposal to keep the constitutional monarchy unchanged.

After settling Constant, Zhang Meng fell into a big stone in his heart, and immediately returned to Neyafu to discuss with his subordinates the specific actions to overthrow Aprado.

In the afternoon of the same day, four second-hand 500-ton gunboats that Zhang Meng had retrieved from the Chilean Navy secretly arrived at the port of Neiaf.

These four gunboats can also be regarded as Zhang Meng's first naval fleet.

That night, Zhang Meng mobilized 20 transport ships of various types, carrying a regiment of troops and equipped with heavy weapons, escorted by four gunboats, to the port of Nuku'a Lofa, the main island of Tonga.
