Lan Pusheng was the new ambassador to China, and since 22 years, diplomatic relations between countries and China have been adjusted, and the Germans have been promoted from ministers to ambassadors, and the United States has followed, as well as Britain and France.

It's just that the promoted ambassadors are far less majestic than the ministers of the former emperor, and they have to learn to deal with this eastern power on an equal footing.

China's increasingly assertive style is also quite unsuitable for these old empires. As soon as Lan Pusheng came up, he questioned China's instigation of Nanyang Chinese independence behind his back, and demanded that China must guarantee peace in Nanyang.

Gu Weijun only smiled faintly at this: "Two ambassadors, I would like to clarify one thing first, the Chinese government maintains an appreciative attitude towards the independence movement of the Nanyang Chinese, but it absolutely does not have any support. Here I must make it clear that more than a thousand years ago, the Chinese had already gone to the South Seas to make a living, and the Ming Dynasty had Zheng He to go to the West, bringing a large number of Chinese immigrants. At that time, Europe was still in the dark Middle Ages, and you did not set foot in the South Seas at all. After the Chinese arrived in Nanyang, they did not choose to conquer and slaughter, but worked together with the local residents to jointly develop Nanyang, and the prosperity and prosperity of Nanyang had the diligence and sweat of the Chinese.

As one of the masters of Nanyang, the Chinese should enjoy the right to live in peace, but with the invasion of the colonial Shili, they controlled the Nanyang region, and provoked anti-Chinese incidents many times, a large number of Chinese and overseas Chinese were killed, and thousands of massacres were counted. The Dutch East Indies bore the brunt of this issue, and the Chinese Foreign Ministry has repeatedly protested, and the inaction of the Dutch government is surprising and outraged. ”

Dutch Ambassador Bell originally wanted to pull the British and give China a good look, but who knew that after he came. was actually reprimanded by Gu Weijun with a split head and face, he was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, and he was about to argue, Gu Weijun waved his hand.

"Mr. Ambassador, let me finish my words, there is an old saying in China, called the official coercion of the people, the uprising in Nanyang, in the final analysis, was caused by the wrong policy of the Dutch colonial authorities, and the Dutch government should first reflect on itself. Instead of blaming others, this is a very wrong attitude. ”

Bell's face turned red, and as soon as he heard Gu Weijun finish speaking, he said loudly: "Mr. Foreign Minister, please don't change the topic." Some Chinese in Nanyang are under the banner of independence. Start a rebellion. They announced the establishment of the Federal Republic of China, and it is obvious that they used the word "China", doesn't that explain the relationship between them and you? ”

When Gu Weijun heard this, he immediately hahadaxiao: "Mr. Ambassador, don't you also call yourself the Dutch East Indies, do you have anything to do with India?" If you follow your logic, will the Indochina Peninsula still have to give us half of it? ”

Gu Weijun stopped Bell in a word. It is wishful thinking to make China conform with just one name.

Bell couldn't find any excuse for a while, and Lan Pusheng hurriedly helped: "Mr. Foreign Minister." You are confusing the concept that the Dutch East Indies are called because there used to be the East India Company, and India is also because of the habits of the Western Age of Discovery. ”

"For more than a thousand years, Nanyang has been influenced by China, borrowing the word Chinese, there is no difference, you must know our habits, but more than 1,000 years earlier than you."

Once history is laid out, Westerners have no advantage, and Lan Pusheng and Bell are not willing to break with Gu Weijun, Bell said with a calm face: "Mr. Foreign Minister, since China has nothing to do with the Chinese in Nanyang, then we will take the most severe repressive measures to completely eliminate the rebels, and please do not interfere." ”

Lan Pusheng also smiled and said: "That's right, I appreciate the five principles of peaceful coexistence put forward by your government, but I can't ruin my own promise!" ”

Lan Pusheng's gloomy words seemed to force Gu Weijun into a corner, Gu Weijun was not afraid, and said with a smile: "Of course we will not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, but I want to remind Ambassador Bell that in addition to naturalized foreigners in Nanyang, there are also a large number of overseas Chinese, and their nationality is Chinese. In response to the war situation in the South Seas, the Chinese government felt it necessary to take action to protect the diaspora. ”

As soon as he heard this, Bell's eyes widened, the word "protecting overseas Chinese" is not said casually, in modern times, many wars and disputes have been caused by these two words, protecting overseas Chinese means sending troops, sending troops means fighting, is it China to meddle in the South Seas?

Even Lan Pusheng's face has changed, since the basic reunification of China, the British have trembled, and there is still a Hong Kong between the two countries that has not been resolved, if China is ready to attack the South Seas, I am afraid that the pattern of the Far East will be rewritten again!

"Mr. Foreign Minister, I hope you will think carefully about China's strategy."

Gu Weijun smiled slightly: "Mr. Ambassador, as a sovereign country, it is natural for us to protect our citizens, but you can rest assured that if China breaks the rules, we will inform the situation of the warships sent in advance, and we must not use war methods." However, I also reminded the Dutch side that we must protect the Chinese diaspora well, and if anything goes wrong and the people's grievances boil, we will not be able to deal with it! ”

Gu Weijun's words are meaningful, the Chinese will not provoke trouble, but if they provoke us, they will not be afraid. This was a naked warning, and a cool breath suddenly welled up in Bell's heart.

China is very different from what it used to be, and this warning can be said to be loud, and the Dutch cannot but be afraid.

Leaving the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a trance, Bell immediately reported the situation to China and asked for domestic instructions, and Gu Weijun also reported the situation of the meeting to Zhang Tinglan.

Since its departure from Lushun last time, the aircraft carrier Mukden has gone to the South China Sea for its first ocean-going training after a brief maintenance. Of course, this kind of training is not carried out for no reason, and the training is only a goal, and more importantly, it is to suppress the uprising in Nanyang.

With the development of industry and the enhancement of strength, China is also facing dual pressure at home and abroad, and is increasingly wary of China from Japan, Russia, Britain and other countries. For domestic industrial development, the resource gap is getting bigger and bigger, and although China has vast land, it only lacks oil resources.

Although Zhang Tinglan knows that there are oil fields such as Daqing, Shengli, and Xinjiang. But these fields are either too deep or have complex geology to be exploited today. However, the shortage of oil is increasing day by day, and it is absolutely a waste to spend huge sums of money every year to buy a large amount of oil from the United States.

If you want to break this predicament, you have to expand outward, and the most haode direction is the Dutch East Indies! The Netherlands was an out-of-gas country with limited strength, and the Dutch East Indies had a lot of oil. The annual production of oil is around five million tons. Borneo alone costs 1.5 million tons.

And China's oil consumption is only 1.2 million tons! What's more, in addition to oil, Borneo also has rubber. It was precisely after considering all aspects that Zhang Tinglan decided to give it a go in Nanyang, not only supporting the founding of the country, but also sending out the only aircraft carrier battle group.

It was the third day of the proclamation of the founding of the Southern Chinese Federation. The Dutch colonial authorities issued a strongly worded statement vowing to exterminate the rebels.

When the Dutch made a statement. China is not far behind. He expressed regret over the war in the South Seas and said that in order to avoid a humanitarian crisis, China would send the aircraft carrier Mukden to the south. Overseas Chinese in Nanyang who believe that their personal safety is threatened can get help from the navy and withdraw to China.

After this statement was issued. China has shown unprecedented efficiency, and in the port of Guangzhou, China has a total of eight large passenger ships and two 10,000-ton oil tankers. A supply ship converted from a mail ship, loaded with food and drinking water.

Eleven ships, escorted by two destroyers, slowly left the port of Guangzhou, and according to Jihua, after the fleet headed south, it would join the training Fengtian aircraft carrier battle group, and then go south together.

Just when the fleet officially began to assemble, Chinese public opinion boiled again, for many years, the Chinese have been repeatedly slaughtered overseas, and the history of humiliation for a hundred years is full of blood and tears.

However, at that time, China was trampled under the feet of foreign powers, let alone take care of these overseas wanderers, and now in the new era, China has enough liliang to protect her people.

When the huge fleet was assembled and ready to set off, countless people appeared on the dock with five-color flags in their hands. Among them, there were also many Chinese businessmen from Nanyang, and when they saw this scene, tears couldn't stop flowing.

At the beginning, the overseas Chinese destroyed their families to relieve their hardships and promoted the revolution at home, not just hoping that the motherland would become strong and prosperous, and that these overseas travelers could live a more dignified life. Finally seeing this scene, a few old overseas Chinese even knelt on the dock, crying bitterly, like a child.

In the midst of all the attention, the fleet slowly left the port, carrying the blessings and memories of the domestic people, and quickly headed south. When the fleet arrived in the Xisha Sea, the Fengtian aircraft carrier battle group, which had been assembled here for a long time, finally joined in.

For the first time, the reporters on board finally saw the full picture of China's aircraft carrier battle group, and for the first time, these reporters felt the pressure of such a behemoth.

The aircraft carrier formation adopts an elliptical formation, with the nearly 40,000-ton Fengtian in the middle, escorted by two heavy cruisers on both sides, the Harbin and the Jilin, two cruisers in the front and rear, and more than a dozen destroyers looking around, following two oil tankers in Zuihou.

Of course, there are submarines under the water, these reporters don't know yet, but these things are enough to shock people's hearts just by putting them on the surface.

The aircraft carrier battle group is the largest combat system ever built by mankind, and the majestic aircraft carrier is a symbol of a country's strength. Although it is still the era of artillery and giant ships, the aircraft carrier battle group that has begun to emerge has also shown a strong deterrent.

After the aircraft carrier battle group and the passenger ships converged, more than 30 ships headed south together, and this majesty made people almost breathless. The British also knew about the Chinese navy's southward movement for a long time, so they also mobilized several ships from the Far East Fleet to monitor the Chinese navy.

China was not polite to the approaching British warships, and these frigates around them could only easily block the British warships. The British could only watch from afar, and there was nothing they could do.

Another early morning came, and the sailors of the fleet, as well as the reporters on the passenger liner, all boarded the deck early, and not far in front of them was the dark sands of Zengmu, the southernmost point of China!

Just last year, China released a new version of its map, which encloses the South China Sea in almost all of its boundaries, with the southernmost point of the territory marked by the Zengmu Shoal. A reef that is 20 meters underwater all year round has become territory, and it really requires a lot of imagination.

However, the Chinese Navy has no resistance to this, and the South China Sea is ours in the first place, and it can be drawn however it wants. If you are happy, you can simply include the whole of Nanyang.

The sailors pointed excitedly, and the reporters simply set up their cameras to record the place. Just when everyone was excited, suddenly a telegram suddenly came from the submarine on the periphery.

When Chen Jiliangli saw the telegram, he immediately frowned, according to the telegram description, 6 to 7 British warships were rushing towards this side, including a battleship.

Getting this news, Chen Jiliang immediately ordered the fleet to be ready for battle, on the issue of the South Seas, the British and Dutch were wearing a pair of pants, and now the sudden appearance of the British warship cannot but make people think of it.

"The fighter plane takes off, intercept it immediately!"

As soon as Chen Jiliang gave the order, all the personnel on the aircraft carrier were busy, the fighters were raised from the hangar to the top of the deck, the pilots were ready, and the first batch of two reconnaissance planes took off.

The fighter roared into the air, going to search for the British fleet, this time the British sent over the battleship Iron Duke, since the last Sino-British war, this battleship has stayed in the Far East, in order to deal with possible situations, when it was learned that the Chinese fleet went south, the British in order to show their status as the hegemon of the South Seas, also had to send the Iron Duke, to brush the sense of existence.

The majestic battleships took the lead and rushed to the forefront, and the proud British Royal Navy did not take the Chinese Navy seriously at all, and the last defeat was because in China, if it was above the ocean, no one could be the opponent of the Royal Navy.

The British fleet was triumphant and wanted to make the Chinese look good, but at this time, facing the rising sun, two reconnaissance planes searched from north to south and just discovered the British fleet below.

The two reconnaissance planes made a circle around the heads of the British, immediately reporting to the rear. In less than half an hour, the first batch of eight aircraft, four fighters, four dive bombers appeared on the heads of the British

At the same time, the Chinese side also sent a clear telegram, demanding that the British immediately stop their dangerous move to approach the Chinese fleet and keep the two sides at a safe distance.

The unscrupulousness of the British has become a habit, and where they will be willing to be restrained, the Iron Duke still does not stop. At this time, the dive bomber piloted by Wang Weiguo rushed down from the clouds, and the plane came straight to the Iron Duke like a cannonball. (To be continued......)
