Although with China's size, military strength and geographical advantages, even if it is an enemy of the whole world, it can be invincible, but multiple allies are better than multiple enemies, even if the actual role is limited, it can also demonstrate the justice of the party, enhance the people's support for the war and confidence in victory, do you not see that the victors of World War I and World War II have a large group of allies?

As early as when he forced Japan to sign an alliance under the city, Li Hui came up with the idea of establishing a national alliance, but at that time, the younger brother was Japan and North Korea, and it was enough to have a bilateral agreement, so there was no need to do more. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 After the victory of the war against the British, Nepal, Sikkim and Bhutan, the former Chinese vassals that had succumbed to British coercion, all returned to the embrace of China, which made Li Hui's mind come alive again.

When negotiating with the British, the elder Chamberlain was able to accept the change of camp between Sikkim and Bhutan, after all, their positions were relatively unimportant, but Nepal was the most important source of troops in British India, and if he switched to China, Britain would be one less thug and one more fierce enemy in South Asia, and the loss of this entry and exit would be too great, and he was unwilling to accept it anyway. However, China's attitude was even more resolute, and in the bad situation of a complete defeat on the battlefield, the old Chamberlain really could not stand up, and through bargaining, China promised not to get involved in Afghanistan in exchange for the British side's acquiescence to Nepal's annexation to China.

Afghanistan has repeatedly repelled the invasion of the British army when it only has a big sword and spear, and once it has the support of China, it will be even more troublesome, and Afghanistan still has territory occupied by British India, this feud is not so easy to resolve. In contrast, China at least theoretically has the possibility of peaceful coexistence with Britain, not to mention that with China's strength, if it really wants to go to war with Britain, Nepal's strength is not inferior. Therefore, in line with the idea of "choosing the lesser of two evils", the elder Chamberlain finally made concessions, although he also knew that in this way the natural dangers of the Himalayas would completely fall into the hands of China, and it would be almost impossible for Britain to threaten China from the direction of India in the future, while it would be very convenient for the Chinese army to invade India in the south (the point was that the mobilization capacity of the colonies was limited, and if India became independent and became a modern state, the situation would be different.) Since then, Britain has been holding on to the balls, and it is easy not to dare to turn against China......

Later, through the "Restoration of the Kingdom of Hawaii", China had one more ally, and Li Hui finally made up his mind to establish a national alliance to unite China and its allies in the Asia-Pacific region more closely, and prepare for a future world war. Soon after, the "Alliance of Asian and Pacific Nations," known simply as the "Asian League," was formally established, with seven initial member states: China, Japan, North Korea, Nepal, Bhutan, Sikkim, and Hawaii.

Different from the two major military alliances that already exist in the world, the "German-Austrian-Italian Triple Alliance" and the "Franco-Russian Alliance," the "Asia-Pacific Nations Alliance" is not only a military-political offensive and defensive alliance, but also an economic cooperation organization.

Within the Union, no tariffs or quotas should be imposed on imports or exports, and at the same time, they would have to be in lockstep with the outside world as a whole, so that China's industrial products (Japan and later North Korea also had a partial share) could be dumped in several other countries without hindrance, while at the same time they could buy their primary products at low prices, but the Chinese government did not aim to chase profits, so the prices offered were much fairer than those of Western companies, and the economic situation of the countries was generally significantly better than before. Even the three Himalayan countries, which have nothing to offer, have gradually relied on the Chinese government's support for mountain tourism (Nepal also has a traditional mercenary industry) to gradually make ends meet.

Of course, this will inevitably lead to a heavy dependence on China, which is one of Li Hui's goals, to ensure the stability of political and military alliances through close economic ties.

To a certain extent, Li Hui actually borrowed from the "economic exchange" model of the Soviet Union and Eastern European camp during the Cold War, but unlike it, China's size accounted for much more of the Asian Union than the Soviet Union's proportion of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, so the economies of those allies are inseparable from China, and even if all the allies are lost, China's economy will only be slightly affected, and it is not difficult to adjust. Moreover, unlike the simple and crude chauvinism of the Soviet Union, this difference in the interdependence of the countries of the Asian Union is entirely due to China's unique innate advantage, which is absolutely impeccable in form.

As the big brother of the Asia-Pacific Alliance, China has the obligation to support the younger brothers appropriately, and it is not advisable to tighten the belt at home to support Asia, Africa and Latin America, but if it is completely unproductive, it is obviously even more inappropriate, on the one hand, it is necessary to strengthen control, on the other hand, only fatten first, and only when it is needed can there be meat to cut!

Among the six allies, Japan and Hawaii have been initially modernized and have a relatively good foundation, and China does not need to invest too much to support them, and fair trade and cooperation can allow the two countries to develop with it.

Although Japan was burdened with the reparations of the First Sino-Japanese War, because millions of Japanese came to work in China, the domestic minerals were also fully developed, and some competitive enterprises also achieved rapid development with the help of China's large market, coupled with the whole country trying to increase production and save money, Japan's finances began to balance in 1898 AD, and even Li Hui, who knew Japan's potential, was a little surprised by this.

Compared with the popular sentiment in Japan, because the Chinese revolution was actually forcibly spawned by Li Hui, there is still a big gap, but China's size is there, with the gradual opening of the people's wisdom, the potential is far from comparable to Japan, and thanks to the hundreds of thousands of biochemical soldiers, China's current government is far more honest than Japan, plus Japan still has a congenital shortage of resources, so Li Hui is not worried about them turning the sky in the future.

As for the three small countries at the southern foot of the Himalayas, although they are all poor mountains and bad waters, the three countries are self-aware and can be fed with a little profit.

Only North Korea, which has a weak foundation and backward system, is unwilling to carry out modernization reform honestly and obediently, and blames China for not doing its best to help, and the king of North Korea, Yi Hee, even mentions the "lost territory" in the north from time to time, saying that China's support for North Korea is due......
