"Your Majesty, this is the right thing about the treaty we signed with the Dutch!" After signing the treaty with Ambassador Miles Philip, Wu Tingfang entered the palace to report to the emperor Wang Yuze.
"Hmm!" Wang Yuze turned out to be a positive treaty, and flipped through it casually. He already knew the content of the treaty. The Dutch accepted the treaty proposed by the Chinese side in its entirety, which made Wang Yuze very satisfied. After Indonesia was incorporated into China and became part of Nanyang Province, the entire Far East has been acquired by China. Except for the two vassal states of Korea and Japan, all the fertile land in the Far East belongs to China! This is undoubtedly excellent news for China, which has a large population. Indonesia has fertile land and abundant products, and China can immigrate to Indonesia at least 20 million. Of course, the premise is that the indigenous people of Indonesia must be eliminated first.
Putting down the treaty, Wang Yuze glanced at everyone, and then said: "Now, our dispute with the Dutch has ended, and the Dutch have ceded Indonesia to us very rationally. However, it will take a lot of effort to fully occupy Indonesia! ”
"Chief of the General Staff, give an order to the Indonesian army, intensify the efforts to clean up, and before the end of the year, all the Indonesian riots will be quelled and Indonesia's stability will be restored!" Wang Yuze ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty! Now that the riots in the major cities have subsided, most Indonesians have taken refuge in the countryside. Indonesia is densely jungled, and we are not familiar with the terrain, so we dare not rush to the countryside to clear it. Your Majesty, I hope, can dispatch mercenaries. Let the Japanese and North Koreans clean up these Indonesians! Our army, as long as we control the city! "Chief of the General Staff Xiong Wujian said!
"Yes, let the Japanese and North Koreans do it. In the past few years, the natives of the Indochina Peninsula have been almost tossed by them, and the rest have also hid in the deep mountains and old forests. You can let them go to Indonesia to deal with those Indonesian natives. There are 30 million Indonesian natives, which is much more than those in Indochina! Wang Yuze said with a smile. He doesn't have a good impression of Indonesian natives at all. What's more, there are too many of these indigenous Indonesians, although Indonesia is not small. But if China immigrates to Indonesia on a large scale, it will inevitably compete with the Indonesians for land. Therefore, it is very necessary to reduce the number of Indonesians. And the squadron obviously can't do these things, so naturally it should be the two men of Japan and North Korea to carry the black pot!
"Yes. 陛xià! The General Staff will immediately issue an order to transfer five divisions of Japanese mercenaries and two divisions of Korean mercenaries to Indonesia! Chief of the General Staff Xiong Wu said. These mercenaries, although poorly equipped, played a great role in the battle to clear the natives. At least, the natives of Indochina are afraid of being killed by these mercenaries. In time. Those natives also knew that if they encountered the squadron, maybe they would be able to survive, once they encountered the Japanese and Koreans. Then they will die. Therefore, in the minds of these natives, Japanese mercenaries and Korean mercenaries are already more terrifying than demons. This also made the natives dare not attack the Chinese gathering places anymore. Afraid of being killed, they could only hide in the deep mountains and old forests to survive. According to incomplete statistics. During these years, the indigenous situation in Indochina has decreased by at least tens of millions. And most of this is the handiwork of Japanese mercenaries.
Mercenaries were paid very little, and the only way they could make money was to attack the natives, and half of the booty they obtained belonged to them. Even if you will be deducted a lot by the chief, you will be able to get a lot of it all year round. Many of the families of the Japanese mercenaries in China lived a good life because of the military salaries and booty they sent back. This has led to more and more young Japanese wanting to join the mercenaries. However, the Chinese side deliberately controlled the size of the Japanese mercenaries, and only kept it at about five divisions, and would not be recruited unless there were casualties. This makes it very unlikely that young Japanese will join the mercenaries. Every Japanese who was able to join the mercenary army regarded it as an honor. As for China, the Japanese also gradually turned from initial hostility to allegiance. Japanese people are born to worship the strong. And China's achievements over the years have made these Japanese people very worshipped. China cannot be defeated by Japan, and only by following the Chinese can Japan become prosperous and strong, and this has become the mainstream ideology of Japan.
As for the North Korean mercenaries, although their combat strength is much worse than that of the Japanese mercenaries. But they were slightly better equipped, and at the same time the time of forming mercenaries was relatively short, and their exploits were relatively small. However, once these Koreans went to the battlefield and launched a ruthless attack, they were not much worse than the Japanese. When the time comes, when the war breaks out, they will be good candidates for cannon fodder, just like the Japanese!
The Chinese General Staff already has a plan to form a 1 million Japanese mercenaries and 500,000 North Korean mercenaries after the outbreak of the next war to cooperate with the squadron in the operation on the battlefield.
After hearing that the emperor had agreed to send mercenaries to Indonesia, everyone felt sympathy for what happened to the Indonesians. Everyone knows that once the Japanese mercenaries and North Korean mercenaries land in Indonesia, what awaits these Indonesian natives will be a huge disaster!
In addition, the government has come up with a plan to compensate the Chinese who have suffered losses in this riot. The Chinese and our immigrants to Indonesia in the future will be the basis of our rule there. This time, the Chinese have paid a huge price, and we cannot afford to treat them badly. The real estate left by the Dutch, in addition to the most important one, can be compensated to those Chinese! Wang Yuze said. Although, this time the Indonesian riot was not planned by the Chinese side, but just an accident. But in any case, it is always a fact that the Chinese have suffered tens of thousands of casualties. China's rule in Indonesia has to rely on these Chinese people for a large extent.
"Yes, Your Majesty! The cabinet will come up with a detailed compensation plan! Prime Minister Yang Hua said.
"In addition, some of the officials we have to appoint in Indonesia can also be selected from among the Chinese. However, their loyalty to the Empire must be guaranteed, and this is the most important thing! Wang Yuze commanded.
"Yes, Your Majesty! The Cabinet will check with the Ministry of Personnel! Yang Hua said. Competence is very important, but character is the most important. The first thing to be done in a newly incorporated territory like Indonesia is the loyalty of officials. China's annexation of Indonesia is to gain wealth, not a mess!
After the annexation of Indonesia, China's military operations in the surrounding areas can be temporarily ended. Next, it's time to prepare for the big war. However, before the outbreak of the Great War, there was still a war in South America. The construction of four battleships for Chile is almost complete. Over the past few years, China has provided a lot of assistance to Chile, and the whole of Chile has been armed. At the same time, the contradictions between Chile and Argentina and Brazil are becoming more and more serious, and the outbreak of a major war in South America is already inevitable!
On August 19, a fleet arrived in Coconut City (Batavia), and after the fleet entered the harbor, a short Japanese man with a mustache stepped off the ship first. He is the Japanese mercenary, but the sixty-five-year-old General Terauchi Masatsuki. Although he is already old, this old guy is still old and strong, and in the past few years, he has led the Japanese mercenaries, and he has done his best to help China, and he has also been appreciated by the Chinese side! This time, Terauchi Masayi and his mercenaries were ordered to enter Indonesia and clean up the aborigines of the rebellion in Indonesia!
"What a fertile land! This place already belongs to China, those damned Indonesian natives, still waiting for the warriors to conquer! Masaki said with a twinkle in his eyes. Although, for these lands, the day is also coveted. It's just that the current day no longer has that ability, and their ambitions have long been exhausted. Now all they can do is help China and make a fortune. Indonesia is rich, and although most Indonesians are very poor, a few are still very rich. The elimination of these natives is obviously a beautiful difference.
"Everyone obeys orders, I will visit General Su first, and you will lead your troops to rest first! These damn Indonesian natives, they dare to offend China, this time, we must teach them a hard lesson! Terauchi Masashi commanded.
"Hi, Your Excellency!" The commanders of the Japanese mercenaries received orders one after another. This time, there are two divisions coming to Indonesia, and the next three divisions will arrive in the next few days!
Terauchi took a few officers to the temporary headquarters of the Ninth Army, which was located in the Indonesian Governor's Palace. After the withdrawal of the Dutch, it became the headquarters of General Su Hongguang.
"Hello, General Su!" Although the age of the temple is older than Su Hongguang, in front of General Su Hongguang, he is very respectful. The mobile houses of the Japanese mercenaries have always been under the jurisdiction of the Ninth Army, and the Ninth Army is equivalent to their top boss!
"General Terauchi, please be seated!" Admiral Su Hongguang said.
"General Xie!" Terauchi Zhengyi sat on a chair, waiting for Su Hongguang to give an order!
"General Terauchi, you have already received the order from the General Staff, right?" Admiral Su Hongguang asked.
"Yes, General. The order of the General Staff is lowly and obeys the orders of the generals! Masaki Terauchi said.
"Alright, your troops should immediately start plunging into the eradication of the Indonesian natives! There are 30 million indigenous Indonesians, which is too many! Su Hongguang said expressionlessly.
"Yes, General, I see!" The temple is resolute and said!
