Chapter 511: The Great Chinese Federation

These words directly shattered all the chips that Zhu Erdian thought he had, Zhu Erdian's face turned pale when he heard this, and he compromised: "Okay, Your Excellency President, you have won, Malaysia, Bangladesh, the Indian region east of Mengjiala, Burma and Indochina will all belong to your country, on the condition that your country must send 500,000 troops to the European battlefield within two months, and the required military expenses will be borne by your country, and our country is responsible for the supply of ammunition, oil and other military supplies, If we ask your country to send an additional expeditionary force, and the military expenses and supplies of the additional expeditionary force will be borne by us, Your Excellency the President, do you think it is feasible? ”

Xiao Zhenlei nodded and said: "Agreed, there is one thing I want to remind Mr. Zhu Erdian and your government that if our expeditionary force wants to reach Europe, it must first land in the Persian Gulf and defeat the Ottoman Turkish Empire as quickly as possible, after opening this line, my expeditionary force can directly pass through Constantinople and enter Europe to attack Austria-Hungary, if Germany does not want its allies to be annihilated, it can only draw troops from the Western Front to defend the Eastern Front, if my expeditionary force does not fight the Ottoman Turkish Empire, it must land from North Africa, This is equivalent to going around in a big circle, and the supplies from Iran, Afghanistan and India have to go by sea, which takes too long and supplies too long, knowing that Arabia is now ruled by the Ottoman Turkish Empire! ”

Zhu Erdian heard Xiao Zhenlei say this, and thought that Xiao Zhenlei was reasonable, but the Ottoman Turkish Empire was a roadblock in the middle, and if this blockage could be removed, it would be a great help both for supplies and for attacking the allies.

"Okay. On behalf of the British Empire, I agree to your proposal for an expeditionary force to land in the Persian Gulf and attack the Ottoman Turkish Empire. Defeat the Ottoman Turks as quickly as possible, and wait until the Ottoman Turks surrender. Your expeditionary force can attack Bulgaria and Austria-Hungary from east to west, and Tsarist Russia can transfer its forces in the Caucasus to the eastern front against Germany! ”

Xiao Zhenlei stretched out his hand and smiled: "Then we will ?????? Reach an agreement? Within a month of the agreement, your country and the French forces withdrew from Southeast Asia one after another, and our troops were stationed to take over."

"Deal!"

Xiao Zhenlei was very happy, and said, "Mr. Zhu Erdian, in order for the two of us to reach an agreement, I will have a drink together to celebrate!" ”

Jurdian was also pleased that he had successfully fulfilled the task assigned to him by the British authorities, although he did not recover some losses. But at least it succeeded in moving China to send an expeditionary force into the war, and it was an agreement reached within the bottom line set by the London authorities!

On 12 April, the British and French governments-in-exile issued a public statement to the outside world, announcing that Indochina, Bhutan, Nepal, Burma, Malaysia, Bengal, and the Indian regions east of Bengal would all be handed over to China for administration.

This statement by the British and French authorities has caused speculation in various countries in the international community, and anyone whose brains have not yet rusted has guessed that Britain and France must have reached some kind of agreement with China. And in China, there is a land of joy. People celebrated with singing and dancing, and national pride and self-confidence skyrocketed. The military began to get busy, and urgently dispatched six divisions of army units to Southeast Asia, entering the local area to hand over with the British and French colonial forces. After the handover is completed, it will take over the garrison.

Yang Shiqi was instructed to go to Southeast Asia and make contact with some local political forces in these regions. He arrived in Hanoi, formerly known as Saigon in the Vietnamese region. It was renamed Hanoi in 1902. Yang Shiqi followed Xiao Zhenlei's instructions to contact the royal family of the Nguyen Dynasty in Vietnam.

In fact, at this time, the royal family of the Nguyen Dynasty in Vietnam had already existed in name only, and there were no rights at all. The current king of the Nguyen Dynasty is the twelfth king of the Nguyen Dynasty, Nguyen Phuc Chang, who has just ascended the throne this year, and his year name is Qiding, and he is Chinese New Year's Eve one year old today. According to Xiao Zhenlei's meaning, it is necessary to let the Nguyen Dynasty continue to exist, but not let the Nguyen Dynasty royal family govern, adopt a constitutional monarchy system, the king is only as the symbolic head of Vietnam, and the specific ruling is responsible for the cabinet formed by the local political forces of Vietnam supported by the Chinese state, who is obedient will support whom, and whoever is disobedient will be pulled off the horse, in addition, to support some Vietnamese soldiers to lead the local army in Vietnam, give them some simple training, issue them some outdated firearms, and the Chinese army of a division stationed in Vietnam, In addition, the establishment of a naval base in Cam Ranh Bay, in fact, the French have already built Cam Ranh Bay as a naval base very well, which has allowed Huaguo to pick up a big bargain, Huaguo only needs to lengthen and strengthen the dock mooring platform of the Cam Ranh Bay naval base to dock large battleships and aircraft carriers, and build army barracks, air defense bases, and army air force airfields around the base to form a complete naval, land and air force base.

Yang Shiqi and the Nguyen Dynasty King Nguyen Phuc Chang had very good contact, for the French to be able to evacuate, Nguyen Phuc Chang was undoubtedly very excited, excited, and even tearful and cried loudly, over the years, it was really the French colonizers who exploited the local area too much and cruelly, although Vietnam is still under the rule of the Chinese state, but this is much better than the French colonizers here to make a fortune.

In the hands of him and his father, the Nguyen Dynasty lost power and had almost no influence on Vietnam, but the withdrawal of the French and the arrival of the Chinese gave Nguyen Phuc Chang hope, when he was young, the Qing Dynasty was still the suzerainty of Vietnam, and if the future of Vietnam was decided by the Chinese state, he believed that the Chinese should not treat Vietnam badly.

Yang Shiqi expressed to Nguyen Phuc Chang the wishes of President Xiao Zhenlei and the top leadership of the Chinese state, saying that the Chinese state hopes that Vietnam will become a constitutional monarchy, Vietnam will become a member of the Great China Federation, and exist as a vassal state of the Chinese state, and the Chinese state has suzerainty over Vietnam, and the Chinese president is the supreme head of all the member states of the Great China Federation, and the tributary system of the king of the subject state who was canonized by the Chinese state before will be restored, and every five years, the king of Vietnam must pay tribute to the Chinese state, and the Vietnamese government will be governed by multiple parties in turn. The ruling party formed a cabinet to govern the country and allowed the Chinese to station troops in Vietnam, and Vietnam only needed to retain the armed police force and local police to maintain law and order, and the Chinese side was responsible for the defense, and the cost of the garrison was borne by the Vietnamese side.

In response to these demands put forward by Yang Shiqi, although Nguyen Phuc Chang felt that Vietnam had lost its independence and sovereignty, it was much better than being ruled by the French and completely colony, at least Hua allowed Vietnam to be autonomous, and the financial taxes did not need to be handed over to Hua Guo, and only needed to pay the garrison defense expenses to Hua every year, and in addition, pay tribute to Hua every five years. There is no limit to the amount of tribute and goods exceeded, but it cannot be too small, so as to prove that Hua has suzerainty over Vietnam, at least the value of the tribute cannot be less than ten times the reception cost of the Chinese side, and Vietnam must be in harmony with Hua diplomatically, which makes Nguyen Phuc Chang most happy that he will no longer have to be constrained in the future.

Nguyen Phuc Chang agreed to Yang Shiqi's request after convening the royal family members to discuss, and he couldn't wait to sign the relevant agreement with Yang Shiqi as soon as possible, lest things change.

When it was learned that Yang Shiqi, the special envoy of the Chinese president, appeared in Hanoi to discuss with the king and royal family of the Nguyen Dynasty to rebuild the Kingdom of Vietnam, the king of the Phnom Penh dynasty in Cambodia and the king of Luang Prabang in Laos, Sisavang? Vong, King Uyan of Bhutan? Wangchuck and Nepal's King Tribhuwen rushed to Hanoi from their respective locations to meet Yang Shiqi, after all, from now on, Hua Guo is the ruler of their countries, these kings and royal families basically have no power now, they don't want to become commoners from now on, only by clinging to the thick leg of Hua Guo can they maintain glory and glory. Even the 57-year-old former king of the former Burmese Gongbang Dynasty, Xipao, also came to Hanoi from Lednagiri, India, to meet Yang Shiqi after receiving the news, hoping that Hua Guo could continue the Gongbang Dynasty, he and his princesses and children have been released from house arrest and surveillance by the British colonial authorities, so they were able to come to Hanoi, and now Myanmar has been stationed by the Chinese army to take over the power, and he, the late king of the Gongbang Dynasty, cannot return to the throne if he does not have the support of the Chinese authorities.

Yang Shiqi is here to refuse, he put forward the same requirements to these kings as the Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam, these kings have said that there is no problem, since the Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam can accept it, they can also accept it, and in their opinion, these requirements put forward by Hua Guo also greatly save them a lot of things, do not have to worry about foreign invasion, and can be autonomous, only need to be consistent with China diplomatically, as long as you pay some garrison fees every year, this is simply a full range of services, too thoughtful, When the sky falls, there is a big man like Huaguo on top, and these people can be their own comfortable kings in the country with peace of mind, and they don't have to deal with political affairs, and they have the money provided by the state tax supply, there is nothing more refreshing than this.

After signing the relevant treaties and documents with Yang Shiqi, these kings were soon informed that they would personally go to the capital of China to accept the canonization of the president, they were all members of the Great China Federation, and the president of Huaguo, as the supreme head of the Great China Federation, must canonize them, so that their status is legal and valid, and if they are not canonized, they will be invalid.
