455 Petitions
By the time the clock ticked into July, the Russian civil war had actually stopped. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Representatives of the Russian Bolsheviks and the coalition government and the armed forces of South Russia gathered in Paris to try to find a way to end the war acceptable to all.
The wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
The Bolsheviks were the state of the proletariat and the coalition government was the state of the bourgeoisie, and their contradictions could not be reconciled, and it was extremely difficult to find a path to peace.
But neither the coalition government nor the Bolsheviks had the ability to continue the war, so even if they were unwilling, the parties had no choice but to sit down and negotiate peace.
Even if it is to accumulate strength for the next stage of the battle, there is still a time to breathe.
In any case, the war in Russia is over, but at the same time, the European continent has not returned to calm because of the cessation of the world war, and the war has broken out again.
The cause of the outbreak was also territorial issues.
Although the Italians were the first to go on both sides, they finally stood in the right position in the middle of the war and became a member of the victorious powers, so after the war, it was natural to make territorial claims to Croatia.
This request was denied.
So the Italians angrily withdrew from the Paris Peace Conference, they were not prepared to waste time in Paris, and they were ready to use force to get what they wanted.
Well, because of the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, because of the collapse of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, Italy felt stronger than ever, and the Italians began to try to break free from the cage created by the British and the French, wanting to be treated in a way that matched their statehood.
But the heart is higher than the sky, and the fate is thinner than paper, and it is the Italians whose ambitions are destined to be a flash in the pan, and if it were not for the help of the British and the French, Italy would have perished in the war.
The Turks and the Greeks also fought against each other, again because of the territory.
This time, however, it was the French who deliberately provoked it.
The Turks silently accepted the dissolution of the empire after their defeat, while the French, in order to strengthen their position in the Balkans, demanded that the Aegean port city of Smyrna be ceded to Greece.
The Turks burst out with incredible strength, and under the leadership of Mustafa Kimar, the hero of Gallipoli, they launched a war against Greece, knowing that they had completely captured the port of Smyrna.
Further north, wars broke out between the newly formed states of Poland and Czechoslovakia, again because of territory, and in Transylvania, Ukraine, and the Caucasus, all because of territory.
Fortunately, the scale of these conflicts was not large, and there was no other full-scale scuffle in Europe.
Of course, it is more likely that the war was limited to a certain scale because Europe was exhausted, people were unwilling to continue fighting, and countries did not have enough troops to use for war.
Compared to war-torn Europe, Southeast Asia is relatively calm.
Lan Fang is undergoing large-scale construction, and a lot of labor has been attracted to Lan Fang, and they have been assigned to different places, from Vladivostok in the north to the port of Hedlan in the south, including Cam Ranh Bay, which has just started, and all parts of Wanghai Prefecture, which has been under construction for more than half a year.
Because a large number of workers have a serious job, there is a lot less unrest in society, and although there is some local disharmony, it is generally calm.
Disharmony is found on Zheng Ho Island and in the former British Malaya region of Wanghai Prefecture.
Both places are now under the de facto occupation of Lan Fang, and during last winter's massive outbreak, the British and Americans rushed to flee the two places, and the Lan Fong government braved the virus and sent teams and troops into the two places to rescue the local residents from the threat of the plague.
That's right, it's the plague.
The reason why it is called "flu" is probably because the speed of transmission is similar to that of influenza, but from the point of view that penicillin can have an effect on the virus, even if it is a cold, it is a viral cold.
At this time, the medical conditions were not developed, many diseases were not subdivided, and the causes and types of diseases were not clearly divided, so in the above two places, this so-called "flu" also became a plague.
When danger came, the British and Americans only cared about protecting themselves and abandoned the local residents, and one can imagine the bitter hatred of the British and Americans among the people of the British Malayan region in Wanghai Prefecture and the people of Zhenghe Island.
Therefore, when the British and Americans wanted to return to the two places after the end of the World War, they were met with strong opposition from the local population.
In early July, the Black Swan Castle on Penglai Island welcomed two special guests, namely the Malay Lee Jong Fang and the Filipino Qin Chinese.
Well, it doesn't seem appropriate to introduce these two in this way, because whether it is Li Zongfang or Qin Chinese, they all consider themselves to be Lanfang people, not the so-called "Malays" and "Filipinos".
Li Zongfang is indeed surnamed Li, with some Chinese blood, while Qin Huaren is an out-and-out Filipino and has nothing to do with the Chinese, but in order to express his yearning, Qin Huaren changed his surname to "Qin", the same surname as Qin Zhiyuan, and changed his name to "Chinese" to express his determination.
Qin Zhiyuan cordially met with the two people.
It seems that before meeting Qin Zhiyuan, Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren had understood the etiquette of the Chinese, so as soon as they met, Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren knelt on their knees and saluted, saying "Long live".
This simply made Qin Zhiyuan dumbfounded, so to put it bluntly, Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren finally got up from the ground, respectfully sat on the chair for half of their buttocks, and cautiously put forward their requests.
Belch...... Not to mention anything else, just this way of sitting on a chair made Qin Zhiyuan feel uncomfortable looking at it.
You can't correct it yet, if you correct it, Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren, who are sincerely afraid, may think something, just take care of it.
"Your Majesty, before Weichen came, he had already discussed with the villagers, and everyone agreed to attach Lan Fang, and asked His Majesty for permission to save our remnants of the country and the people from fire and water......" Li Zongfang seems to have received some Han culture education before, and there is nothing wrong with what he said, at least Qin Zhiyuan understood what Li Zongfang meant.
In comparison, Qin Huaren's cultivation of Chinese culture is much worse, but Qin Huaren has his own way, he doesn't speak, just sits on the chair and weeps, and from time to time he will kneel down and kowtow a few times, which makes people cry and laugh.
"Of course, it's good that you are willing to belong to Lan Fang, but if you join Lan Fang, then you have to give up all your previous rights and accept Lan Fang's decrees, are you willing?" Qin Zhiyuan is on business.
"Of course I am willing, we are willing to serve Your Majesty, and I only ask Your Majesty to take it in." Li Zong's dialect is chiseled.
"Okay, if you live up to Lan Fang, Lan Fang will definitely live up to you." Qin Zhiyuan clapped.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking me in." Li Zongfang slammed to the ground.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty......" Qin Huaren couldn't stop thanking, knelt down and began to kowtow, causing Li Zongfang, who was bowing next to him, to be embarrassed.
Really, such a comparison shows that Li Zongfang does not respect Qin Zhiyuan enough.
Of course, Qin Zhiyuan didn't care, just a look, and immediately two guards came up to help Qin Huaren and pressed him firmly on the chair.
Although the Black Swan Castle is Qin Zhiyuan's palace, Qin Zhiyuan did not use eunuchs, and even the female officials in the palace signed agreements and contracts.
It is said that the group of female officials sent by Huang Bohan and them are now also in the Black Swan Castle, although these female officials are under the banner of "palace maids", but looking at their surnames, it is not difficult to understand the relationship between them and Huang Bohan and Guo Shenglong.
After getting Qin Zhiyuan's promise, Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren relaxed a lot, and gradually had a bit of normal communication with Qin Zhiyuan, and the atmosphere of asking and answering questions was warm.
Since it is to be attached, it is inevitable to talk about the treatment of these new immigrants, Yusi When Qin Zhiyuan explained Lan Fang's treatment, it was obvious that Li Zongfang and Qin Huaren had struggling expressions on their faces.
"What, what's the problem? If you have a problem, just say that it can be solved, and I will definitely help you solve it. "Qin Zhiyuan has a big package.
Well, although Qin Zhiyuan is the king of Lanfang, he still does not have the habit of calling "lonely" and "widow", and when using the first person, Qin Zhiyuan is still used to using "I".
"There is no difficulty, it's just a pity that the already developed land and well-built port in Sarawak are ......" Li Zongfang gritted his teeth and said what Qin Zhiyuan wanted to hear.
Those who can be selected as representatives to come to meet Qin Zhiyuan must be the leading figures in the local area, such people cannot be ordinary people, either rich people on the rich side, or high-ranking upper-class people, these people are all with floating wealth, most of them are real estate, let them give up all real estate and invest in Lanfang, it is indeed painful.
"What if? If you have something to say, it doesn't look like a child of my Han family. Qin Zhiyuan took a big hat to press people.
Li Zong's face changed uncertainly, and under Qin Zhiyuan's calm gaze, he finally got up and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the hydrological conditions of Sarawak port are excellent, there are thousands of hectares of fertile land nearby, and the rubber produced is exported overseas, it is really a treasure of feng shui. ”
Li Zongfang entered the role very quickly, and now he is already considering the problem from Lan Fang's standpoint.
"That's right, Your Majesty, the minister has a force of tens of thousands of people on Zhenghe Island, and the training has been completed, just wait for Your Majesty's order, the minister will definitely drive the American devils away and dedicate the complete Zhenghe Island to Your Majesty." Qin Chinese don't look amazing, but their strength is not small.
This is called "petition".
