When it comes to supporting proxy independence, this is really just a rhetoric, if the Chinese in Siam are really independent, it will be equivalent to Lan Fang's enclave, which Lan Fang can annex at any time without any hidden dangers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Qin Zhiyuan was aware of the tide of colonial independence in the mid-20th century, so when Lanfang annexed every colony, Qin Zhiyuan paid attention to this issue.

Whether it is the Northern Territory or Goryeo, every time it occupies, Qin Zhiyuan will disperse and relocate the local aborigines, and then fill the occupied area with population from other places, even if it is a densely populated area like Goryeo, the gathering area of the Goryeo people is mostly in the north of Goryeo, and the southern part is still dominated by Lanfang people.

In this way, even if some colonial elites wanted to make trouble in the future, they would not have a popular base.

If the Chinese in Siam become independent, it is obvious that the Chinese in Siam will establish a country with the Chinese as the main body, and even if it exists in a separate name, it will also be a vassal of Lan Fang, because of racial relations, Lan Fang can annex the country established by the Siamese Chinese at any time, and no one will say anything.

Sounds incredible, doesn't it?

In fact, it is normal, compared with the direct "annexation" of the British and French, although Lan Fang's approach is thorough, it is much more elegant on the surface.

This is also due to the huge population base of the Chinese, if the British and French have such a population of Chinese, I am afraid that the whole world has been divided between Britain and France now, and there is nothing to do with Lanfang.

When Zhang Jingzong faced Owen Jonah's rebuke, Qin Zhiyuan was in Saigon.

Now that the attack on Siam has begun, it is necessary to swallow Siam in one go, so that they have no ability to resist and cannot leave any trouble.

This is the consensus of Qin Zhiyuan and Leotah.

According to the agreement between Qin Zhiyuan and Leotah, Lan Fang was to be responsible for the area extending from Bangkok south to Pattani, the southernmost tip of the Malay Peninsula, and the area of responsibility for French Indochina was the vast area north of Bangkok, including Buriland, Ubon Ratchathani, Khon Kaen, and Chaiyaphum.

In fact, the above area is not the whole of Siam, northwest of Bangkok, there are also vast areas including Phitsanulok, Lai Xing, Lampang, Chiang Mai, in the discussion between Qin Zhiyuan and Leotah, this area is to be divided with the British, so the redistribution does not involve the northwest of Bangkok.

The British also have interests in Siam, if this attack on Siam completely excludes the British, the British will definitely not give up, and if Lan Fang and France propose to give a part of the British after the war, it should be a surprise for the British, and it is estimated that it will make it easier for the British to accept reality.

Geographically speaking, the area under the responsibility of French Indochina is larger than the area under the responsibility of Lan Fang, but the area under the responsibility of Lan Fang also includes a huge sea area, so the area is basically the same. Besides, Lan Fang's area in charge includes Bangkok, which is the essence of Siam, and the richest group of people in Siam live in Bangkok, so from this point of view, Lan Fang still takes a lot of advantage.

Of course, there is also a reason for Lan Fang to take advantage, in terms of the proportion of troops, Lan Fang has sent more troops, and he should get greater benefits.

This time to send troops to Siam, Lan Fang dispatched 70,000 people, including the two brigades of the Marine Corps, Leotai only took out three divisions of less than 50,000 people, and they have not undergone rigorous training, and the combat effectiveness is worlds apart from Lan Fang's army, so Lan Fang deserves greater benefits.

What Qin Zhiyuan and Leotey are discussing is the progress and coordination of the Franco-French alliance this time.

"We have now completed all the tasks on the Malay Peninsula, Bangkok is under siege and can attack at any time, the forward line is advancing north, and it has reached the first line of Chana and Phetchabun, your progress is a little slow, do you want me to help?" Qin Zhiyuan sat on the terrace of the Governor's Mansion of Leotai and showed himself to Leotai.

"No, my boys can complete the task, let your people be careful, don't cross the line, I won't take your affection." Although the progress on the front line is not good, Leothai still does not admit defeat.

Lan Fang's attack was orderly, using the Chinese widely distributed in Siam, Lan Fang first occupied the territory and then slowly sorted it out, even Bangkok was besieged but not attacked, and the forward line has been advancing to the north, which has exceeded the scope agreed with Leotah.

Leotey's answer was profound, if Lan Fang's army accidentally crossed the border, even if it wiped out the Siamese army, it would be returned to the French after the war. It has to be said that before launching the attack, Leothai still did a lot of work, but the quality of the French Indochina army was too poor, they had not completed the task so far, and the progress had greatly lagged behind Lan Fang, which had affected the cooperation between the French army.

"We don't need your affection, it's our duty to help our allies, we're friends, aren't we?" Qin Zhiyuan seized the opportunity to ridicule.

"Help! Are you really good enough, have you paid off the loan you owe us? Leothai immediately looked for a place in the field of national relations.

In the past three years, Lanfang has received a total of 1.2 billion francs of loans from France, some of which have been repaid with raw materials and other inconvenient things, but it will take some time to pay off them all.

The things that are "inconvenient to narrate" are technology, including the technology that Lan Fang obtained from Japan to produce 406 mm naval guns, as well as Lan Fang's self-developed torpedo machine and radar, these things are all subject to confidentiality agreements, especially radar, Lan Fang asked the French to keep it strictly secret, and to raise the level of secrecy of this technology as if they were caring for their own eyes.

Although Leotel does not admit it, in terms of technology, France does rely on Lanfang's help, and it is foreseeable that such help will be more and more in the future.

In fact, Leotei was also bitter when his mouth was hard, once upon a time, Qin Zhiyuan led a group of Chinese workers to beg for a living in France, but he didn't expect that in just a few years, Qin Zhiyuan would transform into the king of a powerful country, and the relationship between Lanfang and France has also changed from vassals to equals, and even surpassed France in some aspects, which made Leothai really unacceptable.

"Your Majesty, Rama VI sent a telegram again, asking Lan Fang to stop the attack immediately, and Rama VI is willing to sign a contract with Lan Fang to recognize Lan Fang's suzerainty status and give the Chinese super-national treatment." Giraldin, dressed in military uniform, came over and gave a crisp report.

Girardin is now Qin Zhiyuan's corresponding secretary, although the actual age is still young, he is already more than 1.70 meters tall, and a pair of long legs are even more thrilling, which is very suitable to describe as "playing with legs".

Qin Zhiyuan now has more than a dozen secretaries, three of whom are closer, Mixia, who is about to become a princess, is still Qin Zhiyuan's life secretary in name, and 16-year-old Heyman Herbert also came to Qin Zhiyuan's side last month and became Qin Zhiyuan's confidential secretary.

After Heyman Herbert came to Qin Zhiyuan's side, Girardin finally couldn't help but offer to work next to Qin Zhiyuan, which was ruthlessly rejected by Qin Zhiyuan, and Girardin became seriously ill because of this, and refused to go to work in the research institute from then on, and even began to go on a hunger strike to show his intentions.

Qin Zhiyuan was reluctant to let Gilardin go on a hunger strike, so he had to transfer Gilardin to his side as a corresponding secretary.

Not to mention, Girardin is very suitable for this position, as early as the Boy Scouts, Girardin showed an amazing talent in telegraphs, and after work, he did not give up research in this area, Giraldin had participated in the compilation of the telegraph code of the last Lanfang Military Department, and can be regarded as an expert in this field.

Of course, Girardin also had his own research work before serving as Qin Zhiyuan's corresponding secretary, but Girardin claimed that he had no interest in the institute anymore, and only had a rough handover with the successor researcher, so he couldn't wait to come to Qin Zhiyuan's side.

"Now that you know you regret it? Tell him, it's late! Unless he abdicates and annexes Siam to Lan Fang, there is no possibility that Lan Fang's army will stop attacking! "Qin Zhiyuan didn't leave a way for Rama VI to live, and he refused very thoroughly.

"Uh-huh-" Leothai coughed immediately, refreshing his presence.

"Uh-that's not what I meant." Qin Zhiyuan faked.

"That's what you mean, but please don't show it so obviously, isn't my old man so unworthy of your attention?" Leothai was deeply resentful.

Attacking Siam was a decision made by Qin Zhiyuan and Leotai together, if Siam was merged into Lanfang, then why did Leotai work so hard in this scene?

"Go ahead and tell him that he can keep his throne if he surrenders unconditionally." In the face of Giraldine, Qin Zhiyuan was kind and pleasant, without the slightest sarcasm and ridicule in the face of Leotei.

"Yes!" Girardin said crisply, gave a military salute and turned around and walked away quickly.

"I can't believe that this little poor is so old now—" Leotey sighed faintly, looking at Girardin's back.

Qin Zhiyuan has been in all the newspapers in France and Germany with the photo of Girardin, and Leotei is very clear about the relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and Girardin, and he is no stranger to Girardin.

"It's rude not to criticize others, I'm not deaf yet!" Girardin, who had not gone far, immediately turned around in protest, his delicate little face wrinkled, and he still looked cute.

"Well, I apologize, I'm sorry, beautiful young lady, I promise never to do it again!" Leothai cooperated and got up and bowed with one hand to his chest.

"Abominable Frenchman—" Girardin shook off a sentence, this time really gone.

"What a little pepper!" This time, he waited until Girardin was out of sight before Leotey muttered to himself.

"Hahahaha-" Qin Zhiyuan laughed heartlessly.

"Don't laugh at me, I've seen your miserable future!" Leothai had bad intentions.

Miserable?

Not necessarily!
