It is difficult for later people to simply and correctly evaluate the war between the Chinese and the Dutch in the Indonesian archipelago in the summer of 1922.

The Chinese won the victory, they won the victory of the so-called living space, and since then, the Chinese have drifted from their homeland to the South Seas, they are no longer sold as slaves to the Nanyang Islands like their ancestors, and use their lives to create wealth for the Western colonizers, and they have nothing to gain, and finally die in a foreign land.

They became upright citizens, and the South China government gave them the same treatment as compatriots in the country, allowing them to do business and cultivate in South China, not only without restrictions, but also provided many preferential treatments.

The South Chinese welcomed the bankrupts of their homeland to exploit the local resources, and after seizing power, they needed a large population to fill the ruling base. An adequate population base is an important guarantee for the Chinese to gain an advantage over other indigenous peoples.

Nanxing Company provided free ferry tickets, and Chinese farmers could easily get on the Nanyang boat as long as they signed a labor contract with the Meihua Company or had other Nanhua companies as a guarantee.

Generally speaking, a young and strong worker who has worked on the farms, factories, and mines of the Meihua Company for ten or eight years has achieved a small amount of success.

Have a good job, have a small house for a few people, or continue to buy a dozen acres of land and build a small home on it.

According to the inertia of the Chinese ethnic group, when a young man from a small village in China has gained a foothold in Nanhua, hundreds of villagers behind him will also follow his footsteps and migrate to Nanyang.

In particular, the Chinese soldiers who participated in the war succeeded in getting their coveted land and became local petty officials, who slowly became no small as more and more Chinese arrived.

In order to protect their own interests, they desperately defended the South China regime. For the nascent country, these Chinese backbones will form a solid foundation for the future Chinese regime in South China.

These are all things that are happening and about to happen. The Indonesian archipelago is about to undergo a major transformation. It was absolutely unthinkable during the reign of the Dutch.

They will only bring poverty and backwardness to the South Seas, which has long been proven in the history of another world.

The Dutch lost, they lost the islands of Sumatra and Borneo at once, leaving only the rich island of Java, which was peeped at like a seductive and delicate girl under the aggressive troops of South China.

The sky in Jakarta seemed to have collapsed again, gloomy and lifeless.

The rainy season has arrived. The inky rain poured down like a heavenly river bursting its banks, hitting the governor's palace like a weight of ten thousand pounds on the heart of the governor of Gullit.

In the past month, the South China Army's offensive was overwhelming, and after the main force of the Dutch and Indian colonial army was eliminated, the 100,000-strong army was crushed all the way down from Medan before the repair was completed.

Following the fall of West Sumatra Province and Riau Province, a major oil province, the four provinces of Jambi, South Sumatra, Bengkulu, and Lampung also fell into the hands of the South China Army.

The South Chinese Army has already taken control of the whole of Sumatra! And on the opposite side of Jakarta, Tanjung Garan, Telok Bedong, set up heavy artillery and shelled Java Island across the sea, which surprised Java Island every day.

A large number of Dutch merchants have been withdrawn. They fled Jakarta in a hurry and fled to the British Straits Settlements. Some wait and see the situation. But those who had spare money returned to Europe or went to the United States.

Before fleeing, they sold their properties on the island of Java at a low price, and these fell into the hands of representatives of the West Face who were secretly controlled by the South China Intelligence Agency and the Meihua Company.

Throughout, the hasty Dutch no longer trusted the Jakarta Governor's Palace.

Everyone understood that the fall was a matter of time before the Dutch had a chance to keep the island of Java with the support of a foreign country.

Heavy rain has extinguished the fighting in the Indonesian archipelago. But the battle on the public opinion side is also heating up.

The Dutch had the advantage in this regard, not only the Jakarta Governor's Office tearfully complained about the brutality of the Chinese, but also Queen William of The Hague stood up and shed pitiful tears for the European media.

Their tragic situation aroused the sympathy of fellow Europeans. Nanhua has been demonized in Europe.

For a long time, Nanhua did not receive international recognition.

Had to pay a high price to "buy" from pragmatic Americans the neutrality of a slightly biased South China.

The news about the large number of moral advisers in the South China Army was also shaken out.

But the Germans are already miserable enough, miserable enough, the government of the Weimar Republic can't even deal with the bad economy at home, how can it bother to pay attention to foreign affairs?

The German side argued that the Germans in South China were all retired soldiers, and that it was their spontaneous and personal behavior and had nothing to do with the German side.

The Germans drew a clear line on the surface, but at the bottom of their hearts they were happy, because the Dutch did not bully the Germans less.

The German industry received the message that Nanhua was friendly with Germany, and received a reminder from Nanhua that it was willing to carry out close economic and trade exchanges with Germany.

Far away South China can provide the German industrial and commercial community with sufficient raw materials, a vast market, they are willing to exchange the rich products of the South Seas for German industrial equipment, and hope that the German industrial and commercial community will transfer their industries to South China, so that the German industrial and commercial community can avoid the damned Versailles Treaty.

Nanhua painted a huge pie for the Germans and made them want to move.

This cake was also shown to the French, the British, and the Italians.

Let these hypocritical gentlemen, while singing about Nanhua, also be ready to move on the orders thrown by Nanhua, which are not possessed by the miserly Dutch.

However, they are cunning and will not take the bait lightly, or please both ends.

In order to prepare for this war, the US-China company has paid a price of 300 million US dollars, almost spent years of savings, in exchange for the prototype of a country. They are willing to pay a bigger price if they need to.

Situ Nan rushed to Washington from New York, where he had just lobbied the American business community to invest in South China, where there were great prospects.

In particular, the consortium with interests or interests in Nanyang has become the main target of his lobbying.

The rubber, tin ore, market and oil in the South Seas can be exchanged as long as they can win the country's **.

In fact, the William consortium has invested heavily in Nanyang: their subsidiary, the Meihua Company, has almost taken control of a country.

"Andrew, I'm ready to invest in South China.

I think the Europeans are not optimistic about South China right now. It is the best time for American capital to enter South China, and we can get a country, a huge market for the future, which the Dutch cannot match.

The emergence of South China was also a big blow to European colonial rule, which could share the pressure of the British for us. "Situ Nan vs. Andrew? Mellon Road.

Although the two are Weng sons-in-law, in the face of heavy interests, Situ Nan has always used interests to impress each other.

"I know." Andrew nodded.

He knew that the behind-the-scenes manipulator of Nanhua was his son-in-law Situ Nan.

"How can we be sure that what happened in Sumatra will not be repeated in the Philippines? I think we should have such concerns. Andrew laughed.

"No one can guarantee this. The Philippines is still a Filipino affair. It has nothing to do with the Chinese. But what is certain is that South China will bring greater benefits to the United States than the Philippines, and that alone will be enough. Situ Nan said with a smile.

He had discussed this issue with Andrew a long time ago, and the two had reached a lot of consensus. After South China occupied Sumatra and Borneo, Andrew was secretly rejoicing, as the Gulf Oil Company had expanded considerably.

Andrew nodded, looked at Situ Nan meaningfully, and was very satisfied with this son-in-law.

Unexpectedly, after years of planning, he really gained a country.

"Rockefeller seems to be interested in the Barylpaboard." He reminded.

"No problem!" Situ Nan said briskly.

Balepapan is rich in oil resources. Let Rockefeller intervene and share the pressure on the British by the way. I'm sure Medan will agree.

"The U.S. business community will welcome South China. I know you have what it takes. But in terms of public opinion, there will still be some worries, and I hope you will pay attention to it. There are also some officials in the Cabinet, I hope you will also take care of it. ”

Andrew reminded.

"Which ones?" Situ Nan asked. He wanted to know which guys would dare to raise the bar with him.

Andrew said a few names, and Situ Nan laughed when he heard it.

"They're not simple, and there are a lot of legislators behind them." Andrew Road.

"It's okay! Do you remember the Teapot Hill Navy Oil Lend-Lease case? Situ Nan smiled mysteriously.

"Oh! That's a good deal. I'm sure they won't embarrass you. Andrew smiled knowingly.

Harding's cabinet hides huge corruption, with the exception of the super-rich Andrew, the government-seeking Secretary of Commerce Hoover, and the low-key Vice President Coolidge. Most guys have problems with them.

If Situ Nan reminded them a little, those people would immediately become interested, and even began to wipe their hands and feet.

A year later. When the case broke out, some people secretly thanked Situ Nan for helping them cover a lot.

Secretary of Commerce Hoover was one of Stuart's key connections, and after meeting Andrew, Stuart met Hoover again.

Speaking of which, the two are still partners.

"Guben Energy is preparing to enter Sumatra, where there are rich gold mines, what do you think?" Situ Nan gets straight to the point.

Hoover is one of the minority shareholders of Guben Energy.

"As a global company, I think Guben Energy should have a variety of attempts."

Hoover smiled, looked at Situ Nan, and said, "I heard that many large companies in the United States are interested in investing in Medan?" They blew the wind to my ears. ”

"Isn't that all a good thing? I think American companies need a new market, and they welcome American capitalists to invest. Situ Nan said with a smile.

If there is anyone in the cabinet who is most likely to have a good impression of Nanhua, it is Hoover in front of him.

As Secretary of Commerce, he has been actively campaigning for American capital to "go global".

Of course, raising domestic tariffs, protecting domestic enterprises, and blocking foreign products is also one of his policies, anyway, the Americans are so arrogant and take advantage of the cheap.

"Of course. This is my duty, and it is my duty. Hoover smiled and nodded.

Before Situ Nan's appointment to meet him, the Ministry of Commerce had already received lobbying from Ford, Chrysler, General Motors, and other auto giants in the United States, demanding that the US Department of Commerce take a more positive attitude towards the situation in Nanyang.

The ongoing turmoil has led to a surge in rubber prices, which has affected the development of the U.S. auto industry, which needs the resources of the South Seas.

Most of these resources are in the hands of the Chinese, which is one of the weights to win over American interest groups.

In addition to the automobile industry, the sluggish arms industry in the United States was also attracted by the war in Nanyang.

Cummins, Bethlehem and so on have received orders from the United States and China, and if the U.S. government is more positive, it will bring them more opportunities and more Americans to find jobs.

And what can the Dutch bring to the Americans?

They don't need U.S. goods, their oil companies compete with U.S. companies, and their territories reject U.S. businesses??????

As a result, while European newspapers unanimously condemned South China, the New York Times in the United States interpreted it differently.

"The Netherlands will not give American companies a chance, but the current development of the situation in the Indonesian archipelago has brought new hope to the American business community.

A new country, a whole new market, is in need of adventurous Americans to occupy it. ”

In contrast to the secretive New York Times, the Los Angeles Times unceremoniously recklessly recounted the brutal centuries of Dutch colonization of the Indonesian archipelago.

"The United States rose from colonial rule, and as the leading force of the new world, it should welcome a country like South China that strives for nationality and equality, instead of following the greedy Europeans and playing for the tiger."

The Los Angeles Times has a large number of Chinese readers in the California area, and this statement was immediately well received. Many immigrants from Europe also sympathized with Nanhua.

While the limelight of the fight against Ku Klux Klan racism has completely passed, there is still some market for South China's action to pursue equality.

In addition, Cummins Broadcasting has also joined the discussion, although the position will be biased.

Under Situ Nan's covert manipulation, public opinion in the United States is almost one-sided towards South China as it is in Europe, and many Americans still look forward to it.

Not long after he arrived in Washington, he received an invitation from Morgan, and he rushed back to New York.

"Congratulations. You did it! Morgan laughed.

"Thank you. But that's just the first step. They still have to face pressure from the British. Situ Nan smiled faintly, his relationship with Meihua Company Morgan was also very clear, and there was nothing to hide.

For people like Situ Nan and Morgan who stand at the top of the pyramid, the world is so big, you can't look up and see it.

Situ Nan knew that Morgan was tempted by Nanhua, otherwise he would not look for himself, doing business with the country has always been the tradition of Morgan Firm, and Nanhua seems to be a good choice?
