There were many people kneeling in the room, both men and women, they were all the Sultan's wives, children, or ministers, and when they heard the sound of the door opening, they all turned around, Zhang Hua stood at the door and said loudly: "I'm sorry to disturb your prayers, now, I want to ask the Sultan to stay alone, and the others go out first."

The Sultan was furious and said, "Guards, guards! Hurry up and get them caught! When the guards in the house heard this, they rushed towards Zhang Hua and the others, Zhang Hua took out a pistol and fired a shot at the sky, with a loud "bang", which frightened the guards to stand in place.

Zhang Hua said loudly: "Please don't force me to kill, Mr. Sultan, I just want to talk to you alone." ”

The Sultan reluctantly said, "Go down first." Everyone walked out through another door, and Zhang Hua said to the Sultan with a smile: "Mr. Sultan, you better come out, I know that you have to take off your shoes to enter the mosque, it's too troublesome." ”

The Sultan had no choice but to come out, Zhang Hua took him to the courtyard, sat on the ground, Liu Wu led seven marines to form a circle outside them, guns rushed out, none of the Sultan's guards dared to come.

The Sultan looked at Zhang Hua, his face full of bitterness, and said helplessly: "Our life is good, why should you Chinese come to disturb us!" ”

Zhang Hua smiled lightly and said, "We are not here to disturb you, we want to cooperate with you and then benefit together, why don't you want to?" ”

The Sultan shook his head again and again and said, "The British Empire has promised to protect us, saying that it is protecting, but in fact it is controlling us, do you know?" The British Empire has the right to appoint sultans, that is: who is the sultan is the final say of the British Empire! ”

Zhang Hua smiled: "So you detained the members of our mission and put us under house arrest?" ”

The Sultan said: "I can't help it, a few days ago, the British envoy sent someone to tell me: don't have too much contact with Chinese, and the Chinese in Brunei should also be strictly controlled, these words are still in my ears, your Chinese mission is coming, which makes me very embarrassed!" Our Brunei is just a small country, we just want to fight with the world, you China and Britain want to fight, there are so many places outside, why do you have to fight in Brunei! ”

Zhang Hua said with a smile: "It's useless to say this, the world has been connected as a whole, it's not that you can be without fighting with the world if you want to, what about the people of our mission?" Let's let them go first. ”

The Sultan said to his subordinates: "Go and release the members of the Chinese mission." After the Sultan finished speaking, he turned his head to Zhang Hua and said, "Please, go back quickly, we don't want to fight in Brunei." ”

Zhang Hua said: "If you don't want to fight, you can agree to our economic cooperation conditions. ”

The Sultan said helplessly: "If I agree to your conditions, the British will call." ”

Zhang Hua said loudly: "With us Chinese, the British will definitely not dare to call!" You can rest assured of this. ”

The Sultan sighed and said, "Well, I promise you. ”

Zhang Hua stood up and asked, "You Brunei should have the equipment to communicate with foreign countries, right?" ”

"There is a radio station that can send telegrams to the British news agency in Malaya and the Dutch news agency," the Sultan said. ”

Zhang Hua said with a smile: "Then go and send it, let's say that the Sultan of Brunei agrees to economic cooperation with China." ”

The Sultan called an attendant and asked the attendant to send a telegram according to Zhang Hua's request, and then with a sad face and a silent face, Zhang Hua asked: "There are no British garrisons in Brunei, right?" ”

The Sultan shook his head, Zhang Hua smiled, and said, "That's good, I'll let our people protect you." Zhang Hua immediately contacted the Zhiyuan ship, and a team of 50 marines rushed to Brunei by helicopter and stationed in the Sultan's palace to control the Sultan.

At this time, Zhang Hua saw Zhong Xinyuan, and Zhong Xinyuan said to Zhang Hua with a ashamed face: "Before leaving, Lin Shuai told me the story of Chen Tang, but unfortunately I couldn't make Chen Tang, and almost became Su Wu, if it weren't for you, I would have to go to herd sheep." ”

Zhang Hua said with a smile: "Don't be sad, didn't Lin Shuai send me to do 'double insurance'?" Now the Sultan of Brunei has agreed to cooperate with us economically, and it is done, I can go to the beach and enjoy the sun, but unfortunately: Sudan is a Muslim country, women have to wrap their bodies in black robes when they go out, and there are no beautiful women to see on the beach. ”

Zhang Hua and Zhong Xinyuan returned to the post house while talking and laughing, and the telegram soon reached Malaya and Indonesia, at this time Malaya was colonized by the British, and Indonesia was colonized by the Dutch, and the situation in this era was different from the Lin Yuan era, in the Lin Yuan era: Malaya only refers to the country on the Malay Peninsula, excluding the two regions of Sabah and Sarawak on Kalimantan Island, Sabah and Sarawak belong to Brunei, and in this era: Sabah and Sarawak were taken away by the British, It became part of Malaya, so Brunei was surrounded by the British.

Arnold, the Dutch Governor in Indonesia? Davis received the telegram first, and he was not surprised by this incident, because the Dutch warship that spoke to the Zhiyuan had already told Davis the news of the Chinese going to Brunei, and Davis had expected this day.

While Davis was listening to his attendants read the telegram, a tall officer walked in, and he was the commander-in-chief of the Dutch fleet in Indonesia, John? Rikaf, Rikaf said to Davis: "Mr. Governor, have you heard about the entry of Chinese into Brunei?" ”

Davis nodded leisurely, and then smiled: "Mr. Commander, do you want to have some supper?" I hired the best Chinese chef, who is good at making all kinds of delicious food, have you watched the Chinese film on the tip of your tongue? Every dish in it is cooked by my Chinese chef. ”

Rikav frowned and said, "Mr. Governor, when is this time when do you still have the heart to eat supper!" The Chinese have already entered Brunei, and have built airports in the Philippines and Wan'an Bank, openly for civilian use, secretly for military purposes, and our Indonesian colony may not be able to be saved! ”

Davis laughed and said, "Brunei is a British protectorate, Malaya is also a British colony, there are British people in front of us, what do we have to worry about?" ”

Rikav hurriedly said: "But the British are in danger if they lose, and the Chinese have a word: lips and teeth are cold, isn't that what they mean?" "After China became strong, the world began to study and study Chinese culture, hoping to find out the reason why China was strong, so many Westerners would pop up a few Chinese idioms from time to time.

Davis laughed again when a beautiful woman walked in from outside with a tray and placed it in front of Davis.
