In October 1913, it was already autumn in the north, full of autumn slaughter and harvest, but in the south Southeast Asia, it was a hot season, located at the equator, with a hot climate all year round, with an average annual temperature of 27 °C. It is a typical tropical rainforest climate, with high temperature, rain, humidity, and relatively little precipitation from May to October every year. This time is the main time for farmers in Southeast Asia to farm, otherwise when the rainy season comes, farmers from China will still work in the fields, but the natives of Southeast Asia will not do it.

In the rainy season full of rain and humidity, the natives will only hide in the tree house and slowly become moldy, and only the hard-working Chinese will work diligently, and this year, there are slight changes, a conscription, in the Chinese circle, carried out secretly.

Because Chen Jiageng and several Nanyang families jointly initiated the delegation, in Baotou is almost full of returns, everyone in the first time back, will give the qualified family members a detailed story, this trip to Baotou full of details, Baotou this city left a deep impression on them, this is a full of vitality, full of vitality and all kinds of hope city, agricultural production is thriving, so is industry, whether it is the machine museum, or the huge steel center of Baiyun Obo and Taiyuan, All witness its huge strength, the most important thing is that the military strength, the northwest has more than 1.2 million army, this is able to meet with Russia's army, a year ago in the war against Russia, the total number of troops in the northwest is only two or three hundred thousand, it blocked Russia's million army, now expanded 6 times, the northwest's hegemonic strength has been undoubtedly demonstrated.

The motherland will always be the foundation of the Chinese living abroad. Only when the motherland is strong can the Chinese people live with confidence. They have deposited their hearts for years and have new ideas. The Nanyang Chinese must master the use of force, so that no matter who is in power, they can have the ability to protect themselves, and in the past 100 years, the gun has come out of power, which has been proven by countless facts.

The Chinese hate the powerful, and they have thousands of wealth, but they do not have the ability to guarantee wealth. Some of the older ones even remember that more than ten years ago, which bloody night was miserable. Parents, relatives and friends, maybe, right in front of their eyes, one by one the barricades have been breached, and after they are breached, they are waiting for them. It is an extremely tragic fate, this is something that no one can change, and now they want to change this qiē.

There are dozens of large Chinese ethnic groups in Nanyang, including some fixed settlements. The work of the selection is carried out in secret, and at first, it is called the hired worker selection. The guys from each shop are selected, but it's different from the past. I didn't choose the smart and clever ones, but chose the more wooden ones. Obedient and healthy, with the influence of dozens of families in Nanyang, plus those wealthy merchants, 15,000 soldiers, it is not difficult to gather, and soon, the personnel will be in place.

After this part of the people gathered, with the help of several families, they were gradually transported to The Hague Island by small boat, this is not the island of Black Dragon Island near Borneo, it has penetrated deep into the dense area of Indonesia's islands, it is a small island with dogs' teeth, full of reefs, among these reefs, there are two channels that are not too wide.

This is actually a pirate nest, known for its secrecy, in terms of secrecy, it is even stronger than Black Dragon Island, the reason for choosing here is because the area of the reef is relatively large, it is more than ten kilometers long, so that this island has become a natural fortress, it is also the largest island among the hundreds of nautical miles nearby, covering an area of 17 square kilometers, with fresh water. The only drawback is that the channel is relatively shallow, and at present, it can only pass through ships under 2,000 tons at most, which can be used as a pirate base, and it is not very suitable for use as a real traffic checkpoint.

If we say that in the future, after being able to clean up the channel by bombing, we may be able to have a berthing capacity of more than 10,000 tons, which is a relatively good point in the sea, but this investment is very large.

Neither Yang Yuanzhao nor Yang Shu was reluctant to do this, this fortress is a natural secret place, an area of 17 square kilometers, enough for perfect development, which is used as the headquarters of Nanyang Island, in the planning, Yang Yuanzhao also left the location of 4 field airports and a large aviation service center.

Aviation is also changing with each passing day, and even the northwest has been produced, under the premise of being able to carry 1.5 tons of bomb bombers, the dawn of aviation has appeared, at this time, the northwest in Southeast Asia's choice, the most important thing is, if the airport can not be placed, then this island, even if there are more fresh water resources, the location can not be kept. With an airfield, the island will become an unsinkable aircraft carrier, with a strong control effect on the surrounding area of hundreds of nautical miles, especially after the advent of radar.

These carefully selected personnel will be on the island, receiving 3 months of recruit training by instructors, and 12 months of intensive training, before returning to Nanyang to be responsible for the defense of the Chinese settlement, and in the next period of time, there will be more personnel for elementary, intermediate, and even advanced training, including not only the children of these Chinese businessmen, but also the personnel of the Dirk Chamber of Commerce.

There are many people, this sentence is really a wise saying, even if it is the ten major clans of Nanyang, it is impossible to grasp everyone's heart, especially when it involves a huge number of 15,000 people, at the beginning, just recruiting guys, not many people pay attention, but the next move, but it is not the case, such a huge number of recruitment, did not intern in the store, but ran to a secret place, which attracted the attention of some interested people, at this time, some families because of internal management problems, There is no strict guarding against this secret, not everyone is killed in blood and fire, sometimes they don't pay attention to what they say, or they leak out when they drink, and some specious information begins to circulate in a small area, and eventually becomes more and more intense.

The British can be said to be very strict in their control of Southeast Asia, which is one of the most important territories of the United Kingdom. The reason why Britain has become the first naval power is because Britain has the strongest naval fleet in the world, but on the other hand, why not Britain controls the most important sea lanes in time, the Strait of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal in the Mediterranean, and Malacca in Southeast Asia. The British controlled three, the Suez Canal, the Strait of Gibraltar and the Strait of Malacca.

If it was what happened on Borneo, the British might not pay attention to it, where is not a waterway, and there are no resources, it is some agricultural islands and a large number of natives, but this news was first found in Penang, and then after investigation, it was found that the whole of Malacca was spreading.

In the British strategy, the overseas colonies, the most important is India and South Africa, India is the largest source of raw materials for the United Kingdom, South Africa has unparalleled precious metals and precious stones, which are the source of funds, but in terms of importance, Malacca is likely to be above the first two, grasp the strait, Britain can maintain enough influence in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and even South Asia, if the Strait of Malacca is lost, then Britain's influence in Southeast Asia and East Asia, will almost certainly be reduced to the bottom, This is completely unacceptable to the UK.

In Malacca, there is a British intelligence department, even if the British center of gravity is all in Europe, in the Balkans, there has been such a big change in the South Seas, it is enough to attract their attention, Penang, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, the three-pronged investigation, and finally found that the target is directly aimed at the Chinese, it seems that there is more than one Chinese family, and it is rumored that the Chinese want to rise and have the rhetoric of force.

By the way, and even using a series of shady methods, British intelligence found some clues, the target was directly to Borneo, and more than one person mentioned that all the personnel were concentrated in Borneo to arm and train.

15,000 men, which is not a small number, in any country, is enough to reorganize a division, if there are so many young men and women, armed with enough weapons, to train and revolt in Borneo, a place that is controlled by the Dutch, Marencia, which is close at hand, will definitely be affected, and maybe it will cause a series of crises.

Britain did not dare to slacken, the people and nationalities in the colonies have always been the British vigilant, although there is no actual evidence, suspicion is enough, the British governor of Singapore, directly addressed the Dutch colonial authorities, asking them to investigate thoroughly and find out what the Chinese want to do.

The Netherlands has declined, they are holding the thighs of Britain and France, trembling to maintain the only colony, even the strong Germany dares to offend, not to mention the Chinese under their jurisdiction, they are already coveting the wealth of the Chinese, they immediately began to use the plan that had been prepared for a long time, began to secretly mobilize the colonial army, and gathered the leaders of the Turks, and plotted to do it.

Before the northwest did not enter Borneo, the actions of the Dutch would not cause great fluctuations, because only the governor, senior officers and the leaders of the natives involved, it can be said that the number was extremely small, but Borneo was the focus of the northwest, millions of people were here, and the intelligence department also relied on the merchants and German-American farms in the South Seas, and it took several years to lay a network, which has spread to all corners of Borneo and even the Dutch colonial authorities. The plan drawn up by the Dutch colonists was sent directly from Borneo to the northwest via radio waves, and the highest red emergency signal was also used in the telegraph. (To be continued......)
