Chapter 163: An Old Friend Visits

In December, the turmoil that swept through several cities in the west subsided after the Tannik Interior Army cleared the western provincial capital of Kovada, the stronghold of the left-wing organization, and arrested hundreds of militants. [Full text reading]

Queen St. Barenge's speech on New Year's Day called on people with different political views in the country to unite to defend the glory and interests of the Kingdom of Tannik, and she promised to seek a breakthrough in the rights of the Kingdom Council under the framework of the Liberal Code, and gradually realize the general election of the Kingdom Council.

The Queen's founding day speech won most of the media's praise, and the royal prestige of the kingdom of Tannik, which led the tribes to drive out the ruling peoples in the north, was very high, not to mention that it was a period of rapid economic development, and many of the ideas of left-wing organizations had no basis in public opinion, and now they can only be temporarily silenced.

Although the prestige of Queen San Barenge grew, Zhang Sheng, Santos and others became a thorn in the side of the constitutionalists, and in the clearance operation in the province of Covada, the internal affairs forces took the opportunity to seize the weapons of a local chief in the province of Covada who had been co-opted by the constitutionalists, which caused a serious setback to the constitutionalists.

Generally speaking, although the suppression of left-wing organizations was an order issued by the Minister of the Interior, Santos, the constitutionalists put this account on Zhang Sheng's head, and in private, the constitutionalists would not speak ill of Queen San Barenge when they gathered, unless it was a private circle meeting, but Zhang Sheng became a target for them to vent their anger, and on the occasion of some left-wing organization gatherings, they usually criticized Zhang Sheng, and regarded Zhang Sheng as the mastermind behind the iron-fisted methods against them.

On the policy involving the civil war in Mali, the spokesman of the Ministry of Defense made it clear that the African Union should not become a tool for the selfish interests of some western powers, and Tannik will seriously assess the situation in Mali and submit a new solution to the African Union on the basis of respecting the interests of various armed factions in Mali.

As for the Tannik's northern neighbor, Russian Selonia, which is preparing to implement Sharia law, a spokesman for the Ministry of National Defense warned against persecution of ethnic minorities, including the Surenos, who have the right to live freely in their homeland.

The statement made by the spokesman of the Ministry of Defense of Tannik provoked a great response to the policy of these two hot spots in Africa, and in Mali, the majority ethnic armed forces, which had always been in a dominant position, were overjoyed and immediately issued a statement welcoming Tannik as the main mediator in the Malian civil war.

In the north, Russia in Russia lodged a solemn protest against Tannik, saying that the statements of senior Tannik military officials would seriously undermine the relationship of mutual trust between the two countries.

The Sureno tribe living in Russian Selonia has been calling for self-determination and self-government.

The Sureno people mainly live in Tannik and Russian Selonia, and the population in Tannik accounts for about seventy percent, although the race and tribes are the same and believe in the same primitive god, but because of the Sureno River separation, the two sides have been in two different countries for many years, the Sureno tribe in Tannik thought that its chief was the chief of the entire Sureno people, but the Sureno people on the north bank of the Sureno River did not recognize this, especially after the queen founded the country, they believed that the Sureno tribe on the south bank was a tribe conquered by the queen, and it was no longer the orthodoxy of the Sureno people。

But now, it is rumored that some of the Sureno tribes on the North Bank are ready to recognize the status of the Grand Chief of Sureno on the South Bank in order to gain the support and assistance of Tannik.

These reports are true or false, but in any case, the foreign policy of Zhang Sheng, the new defense minister, is gradually tending to protect Tannik's national interests throughout Africa.

......

The ups and downs of the outside world disappeared without a trace in the Binhai Manor, and on the weekend, Zhang Sheng held a banquet in the manor to receive old friends from China.

General Shi came to visit in a private capacity, and the pseudonymous passport he used should be to avoid unnecessary speculation from the outside world, after all, he is a senior executive of the Chinese intelligence industry, the biggest spy leader, if he and Zhang Sheng's meeting is not disguised, the news will spread to the outside world, and it will inevitably cause an uproar.

The wooden house restaurant on Penglai Island does not need air conditioning at all, the sea breeze blows, cool and pleasant, surrounded by lush green trees, here is a highland, you can see the mountains, the sea, the scenery is wonderful, such as climbing the fairyland.

Tasting the treasures from China, General Shi sincerely admired: "Brother, you have a fairy-like life here." ”

Not far from the tree, a spider monkey squatted on the branch, staring at the big bony eyes curiously looking at this side, Pan Peony threw it a peach, the strength was small, seeing that the peach was about to fly under the spider monkey, but saw the little monkey jumping upside down, both paws skillfully grabbed the peach, and then swinged, and flew up the branch, but it was his tail wrapped around the tree, chirping excitedly after shouting, dexterously jumped into the woods.

General Shi coughed, "Pan can always produce many good works, my brother has contributed a lot, life here, it's hard to think about it without inspiration!"

Zhang Sheng said with a smile: "If General Shi is envious, you can disarm and return to the field, and I will help you buy a piece of land here." ”

General Shi shook his head and sighed: "How difficult the situation is, I am a hard worker, I can do as much as I can." ”

After taking a sip of wine, General Shi said with interest: "This island is very strange, there are no mosquitoes, it is really a treasure island." ”

Pan Peony pointed to the sandalwood curling around the four corners, and said with a chuckle: "This is Zhang Sheng's own incense, you look carefully, although there is smoke when it burns, but these smoke will disappear when it rises, and there is no smell at all, but it seems that mosquitoes are afraid of it and dare not approach." ”

General Shi said in a loud voice: "My brother is a strange person, he can strategize and win a thousand miles, and he is thaumaturgical and ingenious, and he is good at everything, but unfortunately, our country can't keep such a national talent." ”

Zhang Sheng said with a smile: "The general has an overreputation, I don't dare to be, don't you want me to do something?" Half a year ago, I corresponded with General Shi, when China and the United States were on the verge of breaking out in the South China Sea, General Shi said that there was something to ask for help, and now that he is visiting secretly, how can it be as simple as meeting friends?

General Shi smiled slightly: "No matter what happens, the identity of the elder brother is not suitable to do it now, and I can't have this kind of delusion." It's just that I don't know if my brother's subordinates have a master of disguise, from voice to appearance, the kind that can be a stand-in for another person. ”

Zhang Sheng was stagnant, his actions in southern Myanmar could be concealed from others, I was afraid that he would not be able to hide this General Shi, there was no impermeable wall, even if Liao Yan wanted to help him keep the secret, General Shi had a way to investigate clearly.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Sheng smiled and said, "What the hell is going on, can you tell me?"

Pan Peony immediately got up and said, "You talk." ”1148
