But Temasek can't meet this standard, the number of Chinese there, at most 80 percent, that is to say, there are 20 percent of other ethnic groups, the vast majority of Malays, there are also many Tianzhu people, Pakistanis, of course, there are a small number of whites, if you want to join the Ming Dynasty, you have to at least increase the number of Chinese to 90 percent or reduce these people to 10 percent, which is a big project.

"I don't care how to meet the standard, but this standard cannot be changed."

Yang Feng told him with certainty.

In fact, the method is not complicated, either drive out a large number of other ethnic groups, or bring in hundreds of thousands of Chinese, so that it can be easily achieved in one rush, but it is not so easy to really do, it depends on how those Chinese play in Temasek, anyway, they still have time.

For example, it would be good to let Lao Chen come forward and then immigrate some people from Comrade Li, because he is still very respected by Comrade Li anyway.

"Then if it is reached, in what form will we join Daming?"

Lao Chen put aside this question, and then asked another major question, this question is more important than the previous question, the previous question is easy to operate, but this question has no operation, it can only depend on how Yang Feng decides, anyway, they are not qualified to bargain with Yang Feng.

"There are many ways for you to choose from this, first, like Borneo, directly join the Ming Empire, and then become the prefecture and county of the empire, similar to Ying Tianfu and its subordinate counties, and the people of each prefecture and county also enjoy the same treatment as the people of Ying Tianfu, free housing, free medical care. Free education. It's all the same.

Second. In the form of self-government, the empire is only responsible for national defense and foreign affairs, and the local government is completely autonomous under the premise of obeying the laws of the empire, and only needs to bear part of the obligations, such as military service, defense budget, etc., of course, the details still need to be improved. But the empire will not pay for the benefits of the people of the autonomous republic, such as free housing, and you will have to be responsible for it.

Thirdly, in the form of a vassal state, you only need to pay tribute to the empire every year, you can have your own army, but you don't have diplomatic rights, just like Australia before, when you encounter aggression, the empire will send troops to help you. In the same way, when the empire is invaded, you must also send troops to help in the war. As for the empire sending troops to invade others, you can watch and do this.

You can choose one of the three, and whatever you choose, I'm very welcome. ”

Yang Feng said slowly.

In fact, he very much hopes that Temasek will choose the second option, after all, his way of governing is only suitable for small countries, one or two million or even millions of people, in short, the smaller the population, the better it is to manage, but the more the population, it is very troublesome, not to mention that high welfare also costs money, not to mention that the key is free housing, he can swallow Borneo directly, because he has already done this there.

All the companies that work under him enjoy the same benefits as the residents of Yingtian, anyway, he has all the construction-related factories such as steel mills, cement factories, construction machinery factories, power plants, etc., and the rest is nothing more than handing over the money from the left hand to the right hand, and the extra cost is just a little more than the wages of the construction workers. Although it seems to be a very scary investment to support housing for millions of people, in fact, in the circle in the end, he didn't spend much at all, not to mention that after solving these worries, those workers would spend money openly, and then most of their money flowed back to Yang Feng through cars, televisions and other factories.

In fact, this account is impossible to calculate in the end.

But if Temasek joins directly, then he will need to invest extra to provide free housing for the homeless there, which is not cost-effective for him, and of course the reason why he has put it up is to conclude that the capitalists in Temasek will definitely choose the second option, because the second option is more liberal and the high welfare of Tianfu is behind the high tax burden, and the tax rate is far higher than that of other countries.

Especially in the treatment of the rich, just a personal income tax ladder collection, let many capitalists complain, in the newspaper Yang Yuan is robbing the rich and helping the poor, but complaining is complaining, they who followed Yang Feng to make a fortune, at most they just complained, anyway, there is a huge annual income support, no one really cares about that tax.

"Führer, we'll think about it seriously."

Lao Chen said.

He's asking this question on behalf of all the Chinese in Temasek, and of course he has to go back and talk to everyone, and it's too early to talk about it, because the Britons are not gone yet, and they are trying to maintain their crumbling rule!

Of course, it is only a matter of time before they leave, and I am afraid that even they themselves know that the ruler of Southeast Asia is no longer them, as for who will become next, just look at this head of state who has exposed millions of soldiers and supported three battlefields at the same time, but he is like no one every day.

Now as long as you are not a fool, you know who the winner of this great melee in Southeast Asia is, a country that supports three battlefields at the same time, but still keeps selling all kinds of materials to the coalition forces on the Goryeo battlefield, and even the production of luxury goods has not been affected, and now it is said that even eating is beginning to be nervous about Tianzhu, Java and other countries, who will be the victor?

As long as the Ming Dynasty wins this war again, then Yang will be the real master in Southeast Asia.

Two days later, in Donglin, a small town on the west coast of North Goryeo, which is only 30 kilometers away from the mouth of the Yalu River, the soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 21st Regiment of the 24th Division of the US Army, holding Garand rifles, were leisurely walking slowly on the road after the snow.

The battalion commander, Lieutenant Colonel Smith, sat idly on a unicorn warrior van, smoking a cigarette and looking leisurely with his binoculars at the undulating mountains in the distance, the Yalu River, whose destination was just behind this mountain.

Obviously, the honor of being the first to reach the Yalu River immediately belonged to him.

Hopefully, this will wash away his shame.

Well, this unfortunate battalion commander was the first to enter Goryeo, the Smith of the Smith team who was routed by the Northern Army at Osan Mountain, and it was obvious that he started the rout of the American army on this distant peninsula, but unfortunately, he was responsible for starting the second rout of the American army today.

It's a sad story.

Lieutenant Colonel Smith, who was riding in the warrior military vehicle, certainly wouldn't know this.

"Will, this car is really good!"

He said to his driver while admiring the scenery.

"It's a pity that General MacArthur won't buy it for us!"

The driver said casually.

This car was British, and it was originally the 27th Brigade of the British Army in the front, but after arriving in Dingzhou, the 27th Brigade thought that it had been in the front, and this time it was time to change to the American army in front, so the forward was replaced by the 24th Division behind them.

Again, this is a sad story.

Out of curiosity, Lieutenant Colonel Smith made an exchange with a lieutenant colonel of the British army, temporarily borrowing this powerful enough military vehicle, and almost all the military vehicles of the 27th Brigade of the British Army from Southeast Asia were purchased from the nearest Ming Dynasty, and this exchange finally saved Lieutenant Colonel Smith's life, so that he miraculously escaped the fate of death in battle for the second time.

Lieutenant Colonel Smith shrugged.

"Will, speed up ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, there was a piercing whistling above his head.

"Mortar!"

His Excellency the Lieutenant Colonel screamed, almost at the same time a shell was falling on the right side, in the huge explosion, the warrior under the seat lifted up fiercely, and there were many traces of hitting on the bulletproof glass in an instant, and then fell heavily, Lieutenant Colonel Smith, who was holding his head, raised his head in astonishment, the dense mortar shells were falling rapidly, and in the light of the explosion, his soldiers were jumping, and they could even see the figure of being directly blown up.

"After the North Mountain!"

The communications soldier in the same car screamed.

"Tank, call tank!"

Lieutenant Colonel Smith yelled.

Needless to say, the turrets of a dozen Pershing tanks in the same company have already begun to turn, and the fastest ones are even aimed at the distance, but the problem is that they can't see the enemy's artillery positions, these are mortars, and the direct aim of tank guns is useless against them.

"Damn, it's at least four kilometers there! What 60 cannons hit so far! ”

Lieutenant Colonel Smith said hatefully, at the same time, the Pershing tank started to move, and the infantry on the vehicle rushed directly to the target, behind the tank a large number of American soldiers with rifles and trucks followed, and the communication soldiers in the car called the nearest air force fighter to come to provide support, and the mortar shells at this time, but still kept falling, and from time to time American soldiers fell in the explosion.

Fortunately, the speed of mechanized propulsion, far beyond the speed of the mortar's fire adjustment, and soon the target was in sight, and at this moment, with the cheers of the soldiers, two wild horses appeared above them, and then dived down behind the hill in front, but almost at the same time, the cheers stopped abruptly. In the dense mountain forest, six long lines of fire were suddenly pulled, and a wild horse that flew too low was immediately hit by two of them at the same time, and crashed into the mountain peak on the right in a stunned gaze and turned into a ball of flames.

"Those damn bastards!"

Lieutenant Colonel Smith said sadly.

The other Mustang was so frightened that it hurriedly pulled up, but just as it pulled up, the communications man suddenly exclaimed: "Tank, it found tank!" ”

Lieutenant Colonel Smith's cold sweat brush popped up all at once, and it was clear that it was a trap.

"Retreat, retreat immediately!"

He yelled without hesitation.

However, it was too late, in a valley less than five hundred meters on the right, a black hole with branches tied to the cannon slowly turned out, and the next moment blazing flames erupted from the cannon muzzle. (To be continued.) )
