The news of Lin Fei's order for a yacht was quickly spread, and those democracy fighters launched a fierce attack on Lin Fei like chicken blood.

The main front of the democracy fighters was several newspapers such as "Life Daily" and "Minsheng Daily", which initially started with reporting on the shortcomings of parents and social news, so they passed Lin Fei's approval, but later, these newspapers gradually transformed into a base camp for advocating democracy and opposing the imperial system.

Lin Fei did not dare to ban these newspapers, because once Lin Fei banned these newspapers, the name of the dictator and tyrant would be confirmed.

These newspapers published comments one after another, with very offensive headlines, such as "Yachts are expensive, why does Feidi say that you can order them?" and "Order yachts, the evil consequences of the imperial system".

There are even articles that directly point out that the imperial system has completely backward in the world, and that the Chinese Empire should follow the example of Britain and implement a constitutional monarchy, and some articles even point out that the Chinese Empire should abolish the emperor, follow the example of the United States, form a number of political parties, and implement a parliamentary election system.

Lin Fei behaved very calmly about these accusations, because Lin Fei also had a number of newspapers in his hands, all of which were loyal to Lin Fei, and Lin Fei ordered these newspapers to refute newspapers such as "Life Daily" and "Minsheng Daily".

Lin Fei announced that he had ordered the yacht to build a water park for the entertainment of the people, and the newspaper in Lin Fei's hand used this reason to counter the opposition, and for a time it had the upper hand.

The controversy lasted for more than a month before it dissipated, and because Lin Fei had a powerful tool of public opinion in his hands, there was no major chaos in the Huaxia Empire.

There is another most important reason why there was no large-scale chaos in the Chinese Empire, that is, the Chinese Empire has a stable economy, sufficient food supply, good social mobility, and everyone has the hope of obtaining a higher social status, so the vast majority of people do not focus on politics, people are like this, they will not participate in social change until they are not well fed and clothed.

At the same time, the exchange of technology is also gradually unfolding, the two sides exchange drawings, send technical personnel for guidance, of course, all this is top secret, outside countries do not know.

As for the spies hiding inside the Zero Snow Project, Chiyo Shizuka did not investigate it, because this matter is indeed very difficult.

Since the British no longer cared about computers, there was no need for Ling Xue to make mistakes in the computers, and the computers returned to normal levels and began to calculate the data in "Aircraft Carrier Engineering" and "Aircraft Engineering".

It is impossible for an aircraft carrier to come out in a short time, and during this period of developing an aircraft carrier, Lin Fei continued to pay attention to Myanmar.

After Lin Fei's plan to go to the Middle East via Myanmar and India was formulated, he told Xiyun, who looked at the map and gave Lin Fei an idea, saying that it was better for us to enter the Middle East by land, first defeat Kazakhstan in Central Asia, then enter Iran, and finally enter the Middle East, and fully unite the locals in the process of attacking, step by step.

Lin Fei laughed at the time, Xiyun This is completely on paper, from Central Asia through Iran to the Middle East, the terrain in the middle is extremely complicated, there are deserts in Central Asia, Iran has plateaus, and Central Asia is the forbidden territory of Russia, Iran is the fat of Britain and Russia, and it is no less difficult to take it down than to fight with the British at sea.

More importantly, Lin Fei's entry into the Middle East is to get oil in the Middle East, how to transport oil is the most convenient, one is a land oil pipeline, a sea large-load oil tanker, as for road and railway transportation, the cost-effectiveness ratio is too low, compared with the two, large-load oil tankers are more convenient.

The oil pipeline is actually very complicated, it is impossible to say that if you pour oil into the oil pipeline, it can flow to the place where you want it to go, and the oil must be pressurized, which requires a pressurized station every other distance, from the Middle East to China, thousands of kilometers of land distance, hundreds of pressurized stations are needed, and each pressurized station must have equipment, technicians, and soldiers, and the cost is simply astronomical.

Therefore, Lin Fei did not choose to march by land, but chose to march from the sea, and directly transported oil by ship after the battle.

The encroachment on Burma was the responsibility of the Southwest China Theater, which had now expanded so much that it was necessary to redivide the military regions.

Lin Fei divided the country into six theaters, first, the Northeast Theater, which was mainly responsible for the defense of the Northeast region, at this time in the Chinese Empire, it was said that "Northeast" was not only the Northeast of the Qing Dynasty, but also the Outer Northeast that was later recovered, and the main imaginary enemies of this theater were Japan and Korea, and the expansion to the Kamchatka Peninsula was also responsible for this theater.

Second, the Northern Theater of Operations was mainly responsible for the expansion and defense of Mongolia and northern Siberia, and the main imaginary enemy was Russia.

Third, the Northwest Theater of Operations is mainly responsible for the defense of the Western Desert Province and the expansion of Central Asia, and the main hypothetical enemy is Russia.

Fourth, the Southwest Theater is mainly responsible for the defense of the Western Plateau Province, Yunnan Province, Laos Province, Cambodia Province, and Vietnam Province, and the expansion of Burma and India is also responsible for this theater of operations, and the main imaginary enemy is Britain.

Fifth, the Southern Theater of Operations, mainly responsible for the defense of Sumatra, Borneo, Java and other Chinese islands, the capital of the Chinese Empire, Dayu City, is also in this theater, this theater is also responsible for the expansion of Australia, the main imaginary enemies are Britain and the United States.

Sixth, the central theater mainly includes the main land area of China, and all the provinces in the central and eastern parts of the Qing Dynasty, and the main imaginary enemies of this theater are the United States and Japan, so as to prevent the United States and Japan from jointly landing on the main land of China.

Interestingly, when Lin Fei divided the war zone, the geographical location was divided by the main land of China, which fully shows that Lin Fei focused his development on the main land of China, which is the place with the largest number of Chinese people, and he did not worry about rebellion.

At this time, Qi Lei was the commander of the Southwest Theater of Operations, and he reported to Lin Fei that we had conducted an investigation in the border areas of Burma and Yunnan, and we found a number of Chinese villages, all of whom wanted to submit to China, and we could use them.

In 1897, Britain and the Qing court signed an agreement called "Sino-British Treaty of Renewal of Burma", and Kokang was formally ceded to Britain.

The vast majority of the Kokang people are Chinese, and the British control over this area is very weak, whether it is military, administrative or public security, they have to rely on this Tusi called Yang Guozheng, the British only send civil officials every year to inspect this area, and they even awarded the "British Empire Outstanding Civil Servant Medal" to Yang Guozheng Tusi in recognition of his jurisdiction over Kokang.

Yang Guozheng sent an envoy, hoping to return to the Chinese Empire, on the one hand, to start trade with Huaxia, on the other hand, to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors, although Qi Lei wanted to agree, but he did not dare to make a claim, so he asked Lin Fei.

Of course, Lin Fei wanted to include Kokang in the territory of the Chinese Empire, in this world, only land is non-renewable, and obtaining more land will benefit the present generation and the future generations.

Although Lin Fei thought so, he did not dare to take direct action, because at this time the relationship between China and Britain was in the honeymoon period, and if he entered Burma at this time, the relationship between China and Britain would fall to the freezing point, technical cooperation would inevitably not be carried out, and the launching of the aircraft carrier would be further delayed.

Lin Fei decided to find a reason to enter Burma, which would allow the Huaxia Army to enter Burma and leave the British speechless.

Lin Fei thought about it and finally found a breakthrough, that is, opium!

In the era of Lin Fei, there was a triangular area between Myanmar, Laos and Thailand, which was called the "Golden Triangle" by the world, and was a world-famous poppy cultivation area, which was the dominant species in the local area, and the land of the Golden Triangle was particularly suitable for planting opium poppy, so in the Golden Triangle region, a large number of opium poppy was produced every year.

During the Qing Dynasty, the British had a long opium trade with the Qing court, and some of that opium was shipped from the Golden Triangle.

At this time, the southwest border provinces of China are also facing the invasion of drugs, the border of the southwest region is extremely long, the terrain is extremely complex, it is difficult to keep an eye on every section, so there are a large number of drugs flowing into China.

On the one hand, in order to poison the Chinese people, and on the other hand, in order to obtain huge profits, the British Government acquiesced in and even secretly supported the British company in smuggling opium into China, and the British company invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the production, processing, and transportation of opium for the sake of economic interests, causing great damage to China.

If Lin Fei wanted to use the opium problem to enter Burma, the first thing he had to do was to build momentum for the opium problem, and Lin Fei instructed his newspapers to report heavily on the social problems and family tragedies caused by opium.

There are too many such things in southwest China, men steal and rob because they have no money to smoke opium, and women sell their bodies because they have no money to smoke opium.

The main mainland of China was even more concerned, as they had been plagued by opium during the Qing court, and it was not until Lin Fei overthrew the Qing court that the situation was reversed.

The Chinese people were extremely concerned about the opium issue, and Lin Fei immediately informed Nguyen Phuc Bao Jiao and asked Ruan Fu Bao Jiao to negotiate with the British ambassador and ask the British to solve the opium problem.

During the Second World War in the South Seas, Britain recalled its ambassador and announced the severance of diplomatic relations with the Chinese Empire, and with the normalization of relations between China and Britain, Britain reopened its embassy.

The British ambassador was very surprised and puzzled by Nguyen Phuc Bao Jiao's request, and he said bluntly to Nguyen Phuc Bao Jiao: "The opium problem in China is your own internal affair, and we are not suitable to interfere.
