Of course, the current Lanfang Company is not a suitable choice, because the current leader of the Lanfang Company is Liu Shoushan (also known as Liu Asheng), and he and his son-in-law Ye Xiangyun are typical of the main peace faction, and they advocate cooperation and coexistence with the Dutch. And in the middle of the nineteenth century, it was on the side of the Dutch that they encircled and suppressed other Chinese self-government companies.

The history of the Lanfang Company, which cooperated with the Dutch and the Pollock dynasty to eliminate other Chinese self-government companies, can be traced from the twenties of the nineteenth century to the fifties.

As for after the fifties, the other Chinese colonial companies were almost ****, and the Dutch changed hands and abolished the Lanfang Company, leaving only one name, but depriving many other independent rights, and if history does not change, by 1883, this Lanfang Company will be completely killed by the Dutch.

The Republic of Lanfang, which was regretted or missed by later generations, was okay in the first half of the period, and basically acted as a lackey of the Dutch in the second half.

Relatively speaking, the same Chinese colonial company, Dagang Company and Sãogou Company (12th Company) are more ambitious and more rebellious.

Unwilling to throw themselves in favor of the Dutch or the British, they fought hard and tried to retain their autonomy, only to be destroyed by the Dutch, the Blok dynasty, and the Lanfang Company.

There is only one Lanfang company left that is remembered by future generations, and many people still praise this company, saying that the Lanfang Republic has to make people sigh that history is really ridiculous, and the people who write history are even more absurd.

However, in 1870, not everyone in the Lanfang Company was willing to be a traitor, and not everyone in the so-called company was willing to see the century-old foundation of the Lanfang Company abolished after Liu Shoushan's death.

Quite a few people are trying to do something to save the situation.

In the past, many people who were dissatisfied with Liu Shoushan had left the Lanfang company in Montradu and then came to Sarawak. and joined the Xingang Company, once again setting off an uprising.

At this time, Zhao Dingsheng also found a young man from Lanfang Company, that is, the young man in a suit in front of him.

This person's name is Liu Enguan, Liu Shoushan's second son.

Although he is Liu Shoushan's son, he has had more contact with the outside world since he was a child. His vision and insight are quite extraordinary, of course, the real reason for Zhao Dingsheng to find him is not how good and excellent this person is, but because he is Liu Enguan's second son, and he is also quite ambitious.

It is no secret that Liu Shoushan wants to make Lanfang Company hereditary, and it is no secret that he plans to pass on the throne to his eldest son Liu Liangguan, but it has been promoted for a long time, and Liu Shoushan even plans to abdicate in advance in order to make his son ascend the throne smoothly. Then put his son on the throne.

All this made Liu Enguan extremely dissatisfied, and he is also Liu Shoushan's son? And in the comments of the outside world, he is better than his brother in any way, so why not choose him? Do you have to choose a sick Liu Liangguan who is out of breath even after walking two steps?

He was not reconciled!

In addition, he also knew that if his father died, he would be able to succeed him. But the Dutch will not agree, because of the agreement reached between Liu Shoushan and the Dutch. The Dutch only kept the Lanfang company until Liu Shoushan's death.

In other words, as soon as Liu Shoushan died, the Lanfang Company had to be revoked, and then the territory belonged to the Dutch colonial government.

In this case, Liu Shoushan may be willing, and his brother is not willing to change anything, but he, Liu Enguan, is unwilling to accept all this.

And as an agent who goes around stirring up trouble and making conspiracy. Zhao Dingsheng is not afraid that you have no ambition, he is afraid that you have no ambition!

Soon Zhao Dingsheng made contact with Liu Enguan, and then persuaded Liu Enguan to make a move, and led the Lanfang Company and the Xingang Company to fight against the Dutch colonial government and the Bullock Dynasty.

Although Liu Enguan was tempted by the bright prospects depicted by Zhao Dingsheng. But he is not a stupid person, naturally he will not listen to Zhao Dingsheng's words and rebel, you must know that his rebellion is not only a rebellion against the Dutch, but also he has to take the power of Lanfang Company from his father and brother first, and then he can lead the company against the Dutch.

This kind of thing is put in a feudal dynasty, it is a proper change in Xuanwumen!

Therefore, he repeatedly emphasized that he would only raise troops after the aid promised by the empire arrived, otherwise everyone would go home and hug their wives and children, why should they change it, or don't play such a high-risk thing as rebellion.

Today's ship of ordnance is the aid that Zhao Dingsheng promised him.

Although these aids cannot be given in vain, Liu Enguan also paid a certain price for this, this ship of ordnance has three twelve-pound guns and four six-pounder guns, all of which are contemporary mainstream front-loading rifled guns, and there are also 500 1858 rifles, although they are all second-hand goods, but the condition is all new, and the maintenance is quite good. In addition, there are matching shells and a batch of bullets.

In order to purchase these ordnance, Liu Enguan directly brought several boxes of gold and silver, and paid directly in cash.

Of course, the price of this batch of ordnance is naturally much cheaper than that on the market, and now that Borneo has been blockaded by the Dutch Navy, those who have the courage to sell arms to Borneo are some bold arms smugglers.

The arms they brought were naturally very expensive.

The main purpose of Zhao Dingsheng's batch of ordnance is not to make money, but to support Liu Enguan, so this price is still charged according to the normal ordnance price in the past.

The Rivera Trading Company, which is in charge of this matter, may not make much money, but at least it can guarantee that it will not lose money.

In December 1870, Liu Enguan gathered more than 100 private soldiers and some armed personnel of the Xingang Company in Monteladu and entered the headquarters of the Lanfang Company, capturing his father Liu Shoushan and his brother Liu Liangguan.

And forced his father to pass on the throne to himself!

He immediately announced that he would succeed the new ruler of the Lanfang Company, and allied with the Newport Company to fight against the Blok dynasty and the Dutch colonial government.

This ushered in a new round of Chinese uprising!

And when the Xingang Company and the Lanfang Company fought side by side against the Blok Dynasty and the Dutch, Zhao Dingsheng had already quietly left Borneo, and for him, the task was almost completed.

Under his contact, the Xingang company was established. It also promoted Liu Enguan's rise to power, which then evolved into a cooperation between the Xingang Company and the Lanfang Company against the local white colonists, and led Borneo to re-enter the melee.

No matter how long the local Chinese can resist, it doesn't matter to Zhao Dingsheng, who is about to return to China and accept a new mission. He was very satisfied with his mission in Borneo, and planned to send him to Sumatra to find the Acehnese and other local indigenous tribes and kingdoms, and continue to work hard to bring about a great rebellion in Dutch Indonesia.

As for the follow-up in Borneo, it is only natural that someone else from the Intelligence Department will continue to be in charge.

With the secret assistance of the Intelligence Department of a large number of ordnance, the Lanfang Company and the Xingang Company mobilized more than 3,000 armed forces, of course, it is relatively reluctant to say that it is an army, at most it is a militia. In the northwestern region of Borneo, there were frequent wars with the Bullock dynasty and the Dutch colonial government.

When the timeline entered 1871, under the cooperation of the intelligence officers of the intelligence department and some secret diplomats, the Lanfang Company and the Xingang Company announced a merger in order to change the trouble of separate affairs and poor communication between the allied forces.

After the merger, it was called the 'Langang Great Unified Republic', and in order to balance internal power, Liu Enguan, who was more prestigious and powerful, served as the first 'commander'. Li Ji served as the 'deputy commander'.

The Great Republic of Langang changed the model of the East India Colonial Company, which had been used for many years. Directly using the imperial regime as a template, the cabinet and army were set up, and the slogan of building a second Ning Dynasty was shouted.

The Ning Dynasty was the first formal government established by the Chinese abroad, and the Chinese have always maintained the power of the ruling class, which is a typical overseas Chinese country in modern times.

After the establishment of Langang State, the empire became the boss of the Chinese in the world. Naturally, it was incumbent upon them to support it, and of course, in order not to irritate the sensitive nerves of the British, the Reich still showed restraint in this matter.

At the request of the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Imperial Consulate in Jakarta promptly issued a declaration of neutrality, announcing that the Empire would be neutral in the war between the State of Langang in Borneo and the Dutch East Indies Colonial Government and the Bullock Dynasty. Do not interfere with any party.

And what does this declaration of neutrality represent?

It represents the Empire's recognition of Langang as a warring group with independent political and military strength.

Although it is different from the official recognition of the establishment of Langang, it is almost the same.

However, the Empire's public reaction was limited to declaring neutrality, and it was naturally impossible to say that the Empire would openly exert diplomatic pressure, or that the Empire would protect the Langang State.

Even if the empire wants to support Langang State, it has to come secretly.

And this kind of secret support has been started since last year, without the secret support of the empire, the original Xingang Company and Lanfang Company would not have been able to block the first wave of attacks of the Dutch, and there would be no chance to establish Langang State at all.

Now after the establishment of Langang State, under the instruction of Lin Zhe, the Imperial Intelligence Department continues to increase its support for Langang State, mainly reflected in military assistance, and sends a small number of military instructors.

Anyway, Langang is a predominantly Chinese-dominated country, and this Chinese-faced military instructor will not affect anything.

At the same time, it is also secretly supporting some domestic trading companies, passing through the blockade of the Dutch, and then arriving at the ports under the control of the Langang State to trade, importing ordnance, weapons and other industrial products to the Langang State, and the goods used by the Langang State are very simple and gold.

Because the predecessor of Langang was these Chinese companies, and these Chinese companies were basically mining, why the Bullock Dynasty fought to the death with the Chinese companies was to compete for the gold mines in Shelong Men, Sarawak.

Most of the Chinese companies in Borneo come to dig for gold, so there are not many other countries in Langang, but there is still a lot of gold.

With gold, you will naturally be able to buy ordnance and weapons!

At the same time, in order to support the Langang country, the empire also actively cooperated with the Langang country to recruit immigrants in the country, after all, the current population of the Langang country is very small, and the total number of Chinese inside is about 50,000, and there are also a considerable number of local aborigines, the situation is even more unbearable than when Lin Chengting entered Myanmar, because at that time Lin Chengting could also recruit immigrants from the Yunnan-Guizhou region in a steady stream, in just ten years, the total number of Chinese in the Ning Dynasty has exceeded 200,000 now.

However, because Langang is an island country and far away from the empire, it is very difficult to replenish the Chinese population, and it can only be transported by ship by ship.

But in any case, the country of Langang, which had not appeared in this historical time and space, appeared, and caused a lot of trouble to the Dutch and the British.

That's enough for the Empire! (To be continued.) )
