836 The Japanese occupy Sakhalin

Lin Fei first protested against the British approach, and then expelled a group of British businessmen-for-tat.

If Lin Fei wants to enter India, it is obviously not possible to enter from the land, because what Lin Fei wants is the coastal area, as a passage into the Middle East, if he enters India by land, then he has to cross thousands of kilometers of the Indian subcontinent to reach the coast, and there are a large number of Indians and British along the way, and they can't attack it or defend it.

Lin Fei wants to take India from the British, it seems that he can only confront the British head-on at sea, if he confronts the British head-on at sea, then the aircraft carrier and aircraft must enter service as soon as possible, but the aircraft carrier is still quite a long time away from being launched.

During this time, Britain had no ability to attack the Chinese Empire, and the real enemy who threatened Lin Fei came from within the Chinese Empire.

On November 10, 1904, more than 10,000 people gathered at the gate of the palace to demand that Lin Fei not start the war again.

With the gradual improvement of the security environment around the Chinese Empire, the people are no longer as eager for war as before, on the contrary, the people are content with the status quo, anyway, now they have food and drink, and life is good, why do they still want to start a war?

In the tide of opposition to the war, the call for the abolition of the imperial system has also become louder and louder, and some democracy fighters have even demanded that Lin Fei form a party and implement a multi-party election campaign like the United States, and some people even demand that Lin Fei immediately abdicate and implement a constitutional monarchy.

The place where the democracy fighters are most active is the Huaxia Islands area, which was the first to be defeated by Lin Fei, with the fastest economic development and the highest living standards of the people, and is more concerned about these things, while in the Huaxia Peninsula and the main land area of China, because the economic development is relatively lagging behind, the people do not pay much attention to politics.

At this time, there were Filipinos, Indonesians, and Malays in the Chinese islands, all of whom accounted for the majority of the local population, and some people began to advocate that Sumatra, Java, Borneo and other regions should be independent from the Chinese Empire, and some people stirred up ethnic discord.

Anti-war, the abolition of the emperor, and national independence were the three major enemies that Lin Fei faced, and each of these three enemies was more terrible than Britain, Germany, and Russia.

If Lin Fei compromises to "anti-war", then he will have to watch the oil highlands of the Middle East be occupied by Western powers, and the Chinese Empire will no longer have a chance to dominate the world.

If Lin Fei compromised with the "abolished emperor", then the Chinese Empire would have to implement Western-style democracy, and without Lin Fei's leadership, the Chinese Empire would definitely perish.

If Lin Fei compromises to "national independence", then the Huaxia Islands will completely "change banners", and the Huaxia Peninsula will also "change color", and then the Huaxia Empire will only be left with the main land area of China, and will lose a large number of industrial production bases, almost all of which are oil production bases.

No matter what, Lin Fei couldn't bow his head to the three major enemies.

For the first enemy, Lin Fei decided to exaggerate the threat of the enemy and get the people to support the war, Lin Fei successively threw out the American threat theory and the British threat theory, just at this time Britain started to build a super dreadnought with a displacement of more than 30,000 tons, and the United States started to build a large airship with a load capacity of 20 tons, giving Lin Fei a sufficient handle.

For the second enemy, Lin Fei ordered his propaganda department to spare no effort to publicize all kinds of injustices and ills in Western society, in this era of Western society, the social contradictions were extremely acute, sharp enough to make Yu Xier betray the motherland, help Lin Fei, the workers worked for the capitalists for more than ten hours a day, but the remuneration could only buy a few pieces of bread.

It was against this backdrop that the workers' movement arose, and at this time the workers' movement in Western societies was surging, workers from various countries often went on strike, and the whole society was in turmoil.

At this time, the industrial production of Western society has never paid attention to environmental protection issues, and London, the capital of the United Kingdom, is even known as the "fog capital", in contrast, Lin Fei pays more attention to environmental protection issues, and most factories are far away from urban areas (which will make workers commute to work for a longer time, so in the factories of the Chinese Empire, workers live in factory dormitories most of the time), so the environmental problems of the Chinese Empire are not as acute as those in Western society.

All in all, the attraction of Western society to the people of the Chinese Empire is only that one vote, and with this alone, they can't defeat Lin Fei at all.

For the third enemy, Lin Fei adopted the method of encouraging population movement and allowing more Chinese to enter Indonesia, in order to weaken the independence of Indonesians.

Lin Fei encouraged Indonesians to work in the factories of China for a long time, and Indonesians were the same as slaves in the factories of China, doing the heaviest work, eating the worst food, and receiving the lowest pay.

Now, Lin Fei is obviously inappropriate for Indonesians like this, so Lin Fei gave these Indonesians freedom, and these Indonesians are grateful to Lin Fei and regard Lin Fei as a reborn parent.

When Lin Fei was dealing with national affairs, he did not let go of personal matters, as Lin Feng gradually grew up, the little baby became more and more cute, the little face was chubby, the little hands and feet were fleshy, and it was very cute, Xiyun and Baojiao asked to give birth to a baby for Lin Fei.

So Lin Fei was like a hard-working little bee, sowing pollen, Xiyun and Baojiao became pregnant one after another, and as for the other girls, they didn't have the idea of getting pregnant yet.

The time came in February 1905, the Chinese Lunar New Year, which was the time for family reunions, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, firecrackers rang out everywhere in the land of China, and it was very lively.

Lin Fei was making dumplings with the ladies and cooking a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but at this moment, an attendant suddenly ran to report: "Your Majesty, there is a situation." ”

Lin Fei's heart trembled suddenly, taking advantage of the opponent's holidays to launch an attack, is a common means of waging war, Chinese New Year's Eve, is the most important festival of the Chinese people, if Lin Fei is the enemy, he will definitely choose this time to attack.

Lin Fei hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

"That's the case, the Japanese are stirring up trouble." The attendant was just about to continue, Lin Fei made a quiet gesture to the attendant, and then pointed to the harem girls, "They are very happy, don't spoil their fun, let's go to the office and say." ”

Lin Fei casually made an excuse and went to the office, there were only a few staff officers on duty in the office, and everyone else went home for the New Year, Lin Fei sat down and asked, "What did the Japanese pick on?" ”

"We sent back the news from our outpost on Sakhalin that five hours ago, a group of Japanese, about a thousand people, had landed on Sakhalin, and there were only fifteen people in our outpost, and they did not dare to fight so many Japanese and retreated, and these Japanese had already set up camp on Sakhalin Island at this time."

Lin Fei noticed that the attendant was talking about the Japanese, not the "Japanese soldiers", so he asked, "Aren't these Japanese soldiers?" ”

"Yes, none of them are soldiers, according to our border posts, these Japanese are all dressed as civilians, but they are all armed with guns."

Lin Fei thought for a moment and said in a cold voice: "It seems that Japan wants to occupy my Sakhalin Island." ”

Sakhalin Island is very close to Hokkaido, Japan, and even closer to the Kuril Islands of Japan, part of which belongs to Russia, but since the Outer Northeast was recovered by Lin Fei, the Russian army in the Outer Northeast was defeated, and the Kuril Islands were all occupied by Japan.

Sakhalin Island is very close to Japan and not far from China, but for China, Sakhalin Island is too remote and inhospitable, so Lin Fei only deployed a number of outposts on it, did not immigrate on a large scale, and did not establish a military base.

In fact, Japan has coveted Sakhalin Island for a long time, and the island is rich in forests and mineral resources, and at this time Japan's resources can only be purchased from the United States.

The attendant then said, "Your Majesty, should we protest to the diplomatic officers of the Japanese consulate?" ”

"Protest is necessary, but I'm sure that Japanese diplomats will definitely absolve themselves of their responsibilities and say that the Japanese landing on Sakhalin was a spontaneous act of the people and has nothing to do with the Japanese government, and this is the Japanese trick to let a group of people without military uniforms go to the island and then secretly occupy Sakhalin."

The attendant gave a thumbs up, "Your Majesty is still clever, then should we send troops to wipe out the Japanese on the island?" ”

"Don't use it first, the Japanese are not stupid, since they dare to attack Shangdao, they must have left a powerful follow-up move, our army will definitely suffer a big loss if it rushes over, first raise a diplomatic protest, and then build public opinion, see the attitude of the Japanese, and then the army will go over."

"Yes, understood!" The attendant agreed and walked out, and Lin Fei then returned to the room, making dumplings like no one else, preparing the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but thinking about the tricks that the Japanese might prepare.

The Japanese are accustomed to launching sneak attacks, and this landing on Sakhalin Island may have just used those people as bait and launched an attack as soon as the Chinese fleet passed.

The Japanese have airplanes in their hands, and the Japanese planes, which are light in weight and slow in speed, can take off on merchant ships, will the Japanese send planes to attack my fleet?
