552 Nothing to Say (The Seventh Update for the Alliance Leader Who Sees No Blood in the Sky of Flowers)
The incident in Mersing soon reached Lan Fong. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although it was determined that there were casualties among those who came to attack, the attackers did not leave a single body behind, nor did they leave any valuable physical evidence, and even if they did, they were burned in the subsequent fire that spread throughout Mersing without any trace.
No, it can't be said that there is no, when the fire was extinguished three days later, the British still organized a survey, and in addition to a few guns that had been burned into twisted shapes, there were only pure copper bullet casings all over the ground.
After identification, these shells were produced by the Americans.
This conclusion made the British want to cry without tears, and the whole world has a reason to deal with the British, that is, the Americans do not, especially in the current Southeast Asia, when the United States and Britain need to huddle together for warmth.
When Japan ceded almost all of its overseas territories to Lanfang, now look at the map of Southeast Asia, in addition to Lanfang's territory, the rest is the largest French Indochina, the British Malaya of the British and the Philippines of the Americans look lonely, maybe the British still have an advantage in the world, but in Southeast Asia, the British have fallen behind, this is an indisputable fact.
Of course, the British also have a positive side, that is, the British still control half of the Strait of Malacca, but this advantage can be regarded as an advantage over the Republic of China or Japan, not compared to Lanfang.
Kidding, Lan Fang also controls half of the Strait of Malacca, and even Lan Fang's ships do not need to enter the Strait of Malacca at all, but go directly to Coconut City along the south side of Golden State, so that the distance will be a little closer.
About 4,500 colonial soldiers died in the previous attack, as well as the fire after the explosion, four of the British warships anchored in Mersing were burned, and two heavy cruisers were not burned, but they all needed to be overhauled, and the direct economic loss was about 100 million pounds.
100 million pounds, which was a pain in the hearts of the British, Lloyd George and King George V swore on various occasions that they would find out the attackers and make them pay the price.
Do you still need to look for it, there are not many countries in the world that have the ability to hack the British, and there are even fewer countries that will hack the British, plus the "Lanfang Penglai Island Material Laboratory Leak Case" some time ago, countless spearheads are pointed at Lanfang, but unfortunately the British do not have any evidence.
That's right, it's the evidence, the British know that Lan Fang is the most suspicious, but the British don't have any evidence that Lan Fang caused this attack.
This is not the same as the previous "leak case", after all, it was proved that Benson Franklin was the biggest suspect in the murder of Victor Acheson, and Benson Franklin was at a loss for words.
And now the British have no evidence in their hands, so the British can only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.
Well, of course, the British will not just forget it, they will definitely have to get back to the field, but at least not now, now the British have not had the heart to get back to the field.
At the end of December, Xu Shichang, president of the Beiyang government of the Republic of China, visited Lanfang, which is what the British are most concerned about now.
Since the Japanese withdrew from the Republic of China, there was a power vacuum in the domestic market of the Republic of China for a while, and all kinds of "Japanese goods" that filled the market in the past were all gone, and the Japanese ronin who was wandering around with a knife on his belt all day long was also gone, which gave other forces a chance to occupy the market of the Republic of China.
It is true that opportunities are reserved only for those who are prepared, to be exact, only for those who are prepared.
The British were busy quelling the rebellion in Sarawak and could not take care of the Republic of China market for a while, so the French made a fortune during this time, sending light industrial products, steel products, oil and other industrial products to the Republic of China from the French mainland.
Seeing that the French were earning a lot of money, the British were really envious.
However, the British do not take the small profits of the rope in their eyes, and the entire Republic of China market pursued by the British, so negotiating with the Republic of China government to replace the position of the Japanese in the Republic of China market is what the British really want.
At such a time, the President of the Republic of China, Xu Shichang, visited Lanfang, which could not but make the British more vigilant.
Lu Zhengxiang, the second prime minister of Lanfang, who had just taken office, went to Coconut City Airport to greet Xu Shichang.
It's the airport.
When Lanfang and Japan went to war, Bao Deshui led a torpedo plane from the Republic of China to make a transfer, and since then, the Republic of China government began to ask Lanfang to buy various bombers and transport aircraft, as well as fighter jets, in an attempt to form its own air force.
If it is from the perspective of the country, Lan Fang will not help the Republic of China to establish the Air Force, but if it is from the perspective of the Chinese, it is necessary for Lan Fang to pull the Republic of China.
So with the cooperation of Lan Fang, the Republic of China set up an air force unit with five transport planes, ten bombers, and ten fighters, one of which was changed to President Xu Shichang's car.
"Mr. Bu Wu, this journey is tiring and hard." Lu Zhengxiang held Xu Shichang's hand with a smile on his face.
Lu Zhengxiang served as the prime minister of Lanfang, and it was much more convenient to deal with the Republic of China, at least Lu Zhengxiang was very familiar with the political scene of the Republic of China.
"Zixin, Shibei for three days, you should be impressed." Xu Shichang sighed like a passing year.
Just two years ago, Lu Zhengxiang was still the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China, running around for the interests of the Republic of China, like a rat getting into a wooden box. Unexpectedly, two years later, Lu Zhengxiang turned into the prime minister of Lanfang, the first power in Asia.
"How's it going, is this plane still working?" The envy on Lu Zhengxiang's face was just right, which could not only satisfy Xu Shichang psychologically, but also not make Xu Shichang feel uncomfortable.
"It's so easy to use, the key is that it is convenient and fast, if it was in the past, it would take ten days and a half to board the ship from Jinmen, how could it take ten days and a half to get here, but I didn't expect to fly to Coconut City in less than a day by plane, which is really unimaginable." Xu Shichang did not hesitate to praise.
This half-day effort, mixed with maintenance and refueling time when stopping at the airport along the way, if you fly straight over......
Well, Beiping is more than 5,000 kilometers away from Coconut City, and even if it is a direct flight, it will take half a day.
"Hehe, this is very good, please put it, Your Majesty has set up a reception banquet for you in the palace, let's hurry up, don't let Your Majesty wait." After Lu Zhengxiang finished speaking, he led Xu Shichang to the car parked on the tarmac.
Lanfang's automobile industry, although it has just been born, but the development is very fast, there are already several series, in addition to the military "bulldog", civilian off-road "chasing the wind", and the pursuit of speed of the "shadow", and now the "Wu Hu" series is finally on the market.
"Wu Hu", from the beginning of the design, this is a government official car, from the name "Wu Hu" you can know, solemn black is the main color, in addition to the color, all kinds of design for the purpose of stability and safety, so the car steel plate is thickened as much as possible, and it is also composite armor, that is, a layer of steel plate and a layer of cork, which can absorb the impact force to the greatest extent, and the result of the pursuit of safety is to lead to the "Wu Hu" when the design is formed, the weight of the "Wu Hu" is more than 2.5 tons, which is simply an armored car.
Since it is the pursuit of safety, it is equivalent to sacrificing the thrill of speed and hurricane, even if the "black horse" is driving at full speed, the speed does not exceed 40 kilometers per hour, and the speed has exceeded 80 kilometers per hour "Jueying" is really incomparable.
Fortunately, Xu Shichang and Lu Zhengxiang were not in a hurry, the two sat in the same car, and Xu Shichang was still interested: "This is, this is your own production?" ”
"Yes, speaking of which, this is the fourth model we have produced, which is specially for government departments, and His Majesty is also riding in this kind of car." Lu Zhengxiang's words were full of pride.
"It's really unbelievable, Lan Fang's rise is like a comet, the higher you achieve, the more painful our hearts hurt, God doesn't fulfill people's wishes......" Xu Shichang patted his thigh and regretted.
If there was no Tianjin wharf incident at the beginning, then everything in Lanfang could be regarded as the Republic of China, Xu Shichang couldn't imagine how powerful that Republic of China should be, if the Beiyang government could have Lanfang's current industrial strength...... No, even if it's half, or a third, Xu Shichang is sure to end the civil strife in the Republic of China as quickly as possible.
"Hehe, let him pass the past, now it's useless to say that." Lu Zhengxiang can harden his heart.
Lu Zhengxiang knew very well in his heart that Xu Shichang's visit, in the final analysis, still had to ask Lan Fang. Although Lu Zhengxiang sympathizes with the Republic of China and wants to help the Republic of China from the bottom of his heart, everything must be built on the premise of not harming Lan Fang's interests, otherwise the "People's Party" led by Huang Bohan will definitely not save face for Lu Zhengxiang.
The "People's Party" is a party founded by Huang Bohan according to Qin Zhiyuan's instructions, and the political appeal of the "People's Party" is elite politics, where the people perform their own duties and responsibilities and work together to build Lanfang.
"Zixin, we are all Chinese, you Lanfang are thriving now, how can you bear to see the Chinese in the Republic of China living in the depths of the water? We are the real one with water, the real blood is thicker than water, not to mention anything else, since the establishment of your Lanfang, there are tens of millions of Chinese who have been removed from the Republic of China, for the sake of their relatives and friends who remain in the country, Lanfang should not stand idly by and watch the Republic of China be limited to such a chaotic situation. Xu Shichang's expression was serious.
In the current Republic of China, although the Japanese have driven out the power and the military government in the south seems to have no backstage, the situation seems to be worse than two months ago.
As far as Xu Shichang knows, the Southern Military Government is now in contact with the Americans and the British, hoping to gain the support of the Americans and the British, and then continue to oppose the Beiyang government.
In this matter, the Americans and the British did an extremely unauthentic job, they were not as good as the Japanese.
The Japanese have seized the greatest rights and interests in the Republic of China, so although the Japanese oppose the Beiyang government, they do not want the Republic of China to smash all the pots and jars in the country because of the civil war, the Americans and the British are different, they want to get the entire market of the Republic of China, so it is the best choice to tear down and start over.
Faced with this situation, Xu Shichang was helpless and could only come to Lan Fang for help.
And Lu Zhengxiang can only smile bitterly, what else can he say?
