Why would Johnny think that the latest statement made by the traversers in the "Green Paint Zone" is digging a hole to bury himself? Prior to this, the so-called "Great Song Dynasty Ministry of Foreign Affairs" also quoted the statement of "His Majesty the Great Song Emperor" in its external statement, which also pointed out that if the British Empire's Antarctic scientific expedition team invaded the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, it might invite an armed attack by the Great Song Royal Navy.

This passage seems to have a strong smell of gunpowder, but also as a constitutional monarchy, the British know very well that there is no parliamentary mandate, and the struggle between them and the Royal Navy of the Great Song Dynasty is at best an armed friction, even if their own side is beaten a little ugly because of their outdated equipment, but these conflicts cannot be called wars from a legal point of view.

Let's take a look at the statement issued by the Crossing Crowd later, His Majesty the Emperor and the Parliament have granted the Admiralty the right to use force against the British Antarctic research fleet, which is basically equivalent to shouting that if you dare to come, I will dare to sink you, and it is at the legal level to return Nima!

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that the Virginia-class attack nuclear submarine had arrived at the attack position off the coast of Portsmouth, this statement would have been a thunderous and rainy diplomatic pressure at best, and it would have been a little more serious than the war of words of "His Majesty the Emperor", after all, the Crossing had no intention of crossing the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean to stop the British.

The reason why such a statement that has swelled to the sky is that in addition to the fact that Lu Xiangyang, who is relatively stable in the executive committee, went to South Africa, I am afraid that the main reason is that the oil wells in West Borneo under the control of the crossing public have already produced oil!

Feeling that he would have no meat to eat if he didn't seize the colony in a hurry, Eagle Sauce had already sent a full set of equipment and engineering personnel for oil production to Dongwanlu in order to get a piece of the frenzy of the Great Song people grabbing territory in the South Pacific Ocean.

Originally, a group of explorers in cowboy hats would have spent months or more searching for oil-rich areas. However, among the follow-up personnel sent by the "director team", some of them worked for a company serving an oil company in Southeast Asia before the crossing, although they were not professional technicians, but they clearly remembered the specific locations of those oil fields. Yu Ya used her little hand to put a little bit on the map, and the Yankees saved the trouble of wandering around in the tropical jungle.

As the country with the largest oil production in the world in this time and space, Eagle Sauce's exploration and exploitation technology at this time has been very mature, and with the blessing of those oil engineers who aided Song Dynasty, they quickly dug up the oil.

Although the current production of these wells is not enough to meet the needs of the kerosene lamps that cross the public points in Dongwanlu, this does not prevent the masses from having an urge to destroy the world.

After learning the news of the oil in West Borneo, the inflated mood of "I have oil in the world" began to spread rapidly from the canteen in the green paint district to all around. In a situation of blind optimism among all, it is not surprising that the statement, which is almost equivalent to a declaration of war with the opium cattle, was adopted by the Provisional Executive Committee.

"That field has proven suitable for large-scale exploitation, and now we need more oil production equipment and oil refining equipment, and the appetite of the ships of Task Force 38 is not as good as that of BB63, and crude oil is of no use to them." Lu Xiaobei said to Zhao Yi on the radio.

"The Yankees are also the masters of the rabbit and the eagle, I'm afraid we won't do anything about the war against the Spaniards, they won't throw anything at us anymore." Zhao Yi said.

"It is said that they shipped all the equipment we needed to use in the future to Hong Kong, and it was really annoying to look like they were pinching us seven inches and waiting for us to behave!" Zhao Yi continued.

"There is intelligence that an American fleet has also arrived in Hong Kong, and although its size is not at all good for the Spanish fleet in the South China Sea, it is estimated that there is no problem in taking Luzon Island by our firepower." Lu Xiaobei said.

"Is the situation in West Borneo stable enough now? I mean, if we do it to the Spaniards. Zhao Yi asked, it seems that Mr. Zhao is planning to take advantage of Eagle Sauce for the sake of oil for the time being.

"Stability? It's so clean that there's no coolie to work on. Lu Xiaobei's tone of voice about this cruel fact was extremely peaceful, as if describing an incident that had nothing to do with him and was very old.

For those Chinese forces that originally existed in Borneo to liquidate the local natives, Lu Xiaobei adopted the attitude of closing her eyes and plugging her ears, and she only managed to cross the law and order in the ever-expanding "security zone", even if there were natives standing on the red line of the security zone and encountering "unjust" treatment, those "peacekeeping forces" responsible for maintaining law and order would not interfere.

Even if someone later stabbed the matter to the "Far East Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Great Song Dynasty" located on the Liaodong Peninsula, the Provisional Executive Committee asked Lu Xiaobei to restrain herself, and she just used the sentence "The strength is limited and there is no time to take care of it" and she gently pushed back.

Under Lu Xiaobei's connivance policy, the natives of West Borneo could only migrate deep into the dense forest, but their tragic fate was not improved by voluntarily disengaging with the Chinese.

Due to the large number of infrastructure projects under construction in Dongwanlu, it is impossible to close this labor gap by relying on immigrants from Fujian and Guangdong regions in China to West Borneo. In addition, the people who traveled through the crowd were interested in increasing the proportion of Chinese people in West Borneo, and many jobs that were prone to casualties did not use Chinese laborers at all, which exacerbated the labor shortage in East Manlaw.

Of course, there are people here who are willing to solve the problems of the crossers who have extorted a large amount of war reparations from the footpot chickens. Soon, many adventurers and mercenaries who had wandered in the colonies of the South Pacific countries formed so-called "labor companies", which "brought" large numbers of laborers from nearby Luzon, Siam and even Annam, and undertook those tasks that were not willing to be filled with the lives of Chinese laborers, such as logging in the jungle to open roads, opening mountains and quarrying, reclaiming the sea and building docks, and so on.

However, the operators of these "labor companies" soon found that transporting workers across the sea to Borneo could not keep up with the speed at which they were consumed here, and that some of them could not survive the first month of their work in the poor working conditions and heavy workload.

So these "labor companies", mainly Europeans, Americans, and Oriental dwarves, set their sights on the natives who had taken refuge in the dense forests—laborers who did not have to go through the tirework of sailing and adapted to the local climate. What? You say the natives are too lazy? Big brother, there is no such thing as laziness in front of bayonets and whips!

By the time Zhao Yi asked about the security situation in North Borneo, there were not many natives in this land who had escaped supervision, so where was there such a thing as stability and instability?

"Oil! Without oil, we will remain passive! You should prepare for a detailed report to the Provisional Executive Committee on the situation in the South China Sea at the conference call in the evening, and I intend to push for a resolution on cooperation with the Americans. Zhao Yi said to Lu Xiaobei on the radio.

The rough embryos all knew that if there was no oil, the equipment sent by the "director team" would eventually become a big toy, and Zhao Yi's proposal to sign an offensive and defensive alliance agreement with the Americans in the South China Sea was finally passed.

On the second day of the meeting, the US envoy plenipotentiary, who had been in Dalian Bay for quite some time, finally got his wish and signed the "US-Song South Pacific Defense Cooperation Agreement" with the Great Song people.

Eagle Sauce, who held this military alliance agreement in hand, could not wait to declare war on Spain with the bombing of the "Maine", and at the same time showed the world the "US-Song South Pacific Defense Cooperation Agreement" that had not yet been hot.

Then, Huang Xiaolei also decided to fulfill the obligations of an ally stipulated in the "US-Song South Pacific Defense Cooperation Agreement" on the grounds that the Great Song merchant ship was sunk by the Spaniards in the South China Sea, and at the same time declared war on Spain.

The bullfighters who learned the news were stupid at the time, everyone knew that the Great Song people were now the hegemon of the South China Sea, and even the British fleet was squeezed out by them, if they attacked their own fleet in the South Pacific, I am afraid that they would not even have a chance to escape!

Thinking that he had picked up a big bargain, Eagle Sauce immediately called the fleet commander anchored in Hong Kong and asked him to prepare to go south to join the 38th Fleet of the Great Song Royal Navy.

At this time, the Mississippi, which had been lurking off the coast of Pusmouth for a long time, finally waited for its prey, and its MK48 torpedoes had locked on the three destroyers escorting the British Antarctic research fleet.
