Lam Pusheng is the new ambassador to China. Since 2022, the diplomatic relations between various countries and China have been adjusted. The Germans took the lead in upgrading from minister to ambassador, and the United States followed closely behind. As for Britain, France and other countries, they also
All had to be upgraded accordingly.
It's just that the upgraded ambassadors are far less majestic than the former ministers, so they have to learn to deal with this big Eastern country on an equal footing.
China's increasingly assertive style is not suitable for these old empires. As soon as Lam Pusheng came up, he questioned China's instigation of Nanyang Chinese independence behind the scenes, and demanded that China must ensure the peace of Nanyang.
In response, Gu Weijun just smiled lightly: "Two ambassadors, I first want to clarify that the Chinese government maintains an attitude of appreciation for the independence movement of the Nanyang Chinese, but it has absolutely no support. I must make it clear here that in the past few years,
For more than a thousand years, the Chinese have been going to Southeast Asia to make a living. In the Ming Dynasty, Zheng He went to the West and brought a large number of Chinese immigrants. At that time, Europe was still in the dark Middle Ages, and you had not set foot in Southeast Asia at all.
After the Chinese arrived in Nanyang, they did not choose to conquer and massacre, but worked with the local residents to jointly develop Nanyang. The prosperity of Nanyang is due to the hard work and sweat of the Chinese people.
As one of the masters of Nanyang, the Chinese should enjoy the right to live peacefully. However, with the invasion of colonial forces, they took control of the Nanyang region and provoked anti-Chinese incidents many times. A large number of Chinese and overseas Chinese were killed, and thousands were massacred.
, countless. On this issue, the Dutch East Indies bear the brunt and their behavior is quite bad. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has made multiple protests. The Dutch government’s inaction makes people surprised and angry.”
Dutch Ambassador Bell originally wanted to bring the British together to show China a good look, but when he arrived, he was scolded by Gu Weijun. He was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick. He was about to argue, but Gu Weijun waved his hand.
"Mr. Ambassador, let me finish. There is an old saying in China, which is that the government forces the people to rebel. The uprisings in Southeast Asia were ultimately caused by the wrong policies of the Dutch colonial authorities. The Dutch government should first reflect on itself instead of blaming others.
This is a very wrong attitude."
Bell's face turned red from holding back. As soon as Gu Weijun finished speaking, he said loudly: "Mr. Foreign Minister, please don't change the subject. Some Chinese in Southeast Asia launched a rebellion under the banner of independence. They announced the establishment of the South China Federation. It is obvious that they
Using the word "Zhonghua" doesn't explain the relationship between them and you?"
Gu Weijun burst out laughing when he heard this: "Mr. Ambassador, don't you also call yourself the Dutch East Indies? Does your colony have anything to do with India? If you follow your logic, will the Indochina Peninsula still be given to us?
?”
Gu Weijun stopped Bell in his tracks with just one sentence. It is wishful thinking to make China submit with just one name.
Bell couldn't think of anything to say for a while, so Ramps quickly helped: "Mr. Foreign Minister, you are confusing concepts. The reason why it is called the Dutch East Indies is because there was an East India Company, and India is also because of the Western Age of Discovery.
It’s just a habit.”
"Nanyang has been influenced by China for more than a thousand years. There is no difference if we borrow Chinese words. You must know that our habits are more than a thousand years earlier than yours."
Once history is revealed, Westerners have no advantage. Lam Pusheng and Bell are unwilling to break up with Gu Weijun. Bell said with a stern face: "Mr. Foreign Minister, since China has nothing to do with the Chinese in Nanyang, then we will take the most severe measures."
We will use repressive measures to completely eliminate the rebels, and we ask you not to interfere."
Lan Pusheng also smiled and said: "Yes, I greatly appreciate the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence proposed by your government, but I can't ruin my promise!"
Lan Pusheng's sinister 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 other countries' internal affairs, but I would like to remind Ambassador Bell that in Nanyang, in addition to naturalized foreigners,
There are also a large number of overseas Chinese, and their nationality is Chinese. Regarding the war situation in Southeast Asia, the Chinese government believes that it is necessary to take action to protect the overseas Chinese."
As soon as he heard this, Bell's eyes widened. The word "protect overseas Chinese" was not said casually. In modern times, many wars and disputes were caused by these two words. "Protecting overseas Chinese" means sending troops, sending troops
It means fighting. Could it be that China wants to intervene in Nanyang?
Even Lam Pusheng's expression changed. Since China was basically unified, the British have been trembling with fear. There is still an unresolved Hong Kong between the two countries. If China prepares to attack Nanyang, I am afraid that the pattern of the Far East will be rewritten again!
"Mr. Foreign Minister, I hope you can 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 notify the dispatched warships in advance, and we must not resort to war. But I also remind you
The Netherlands must protect Chinese nationals well. If something goes wrong and public dissatisfaction boils over, it will be difficult for us to deal with it!"
Gu Weijun's last sentence was profound. Chinese people will not stir up trouble, but they will not be afraid of us if they offend us. This was a naked warning, and Bell felt a chill in his heart.
Today's China is very different from before. This warning can be said to be loud and clear, and the Dutch cannot help but be afraid.
After leaving the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a daze, Bell immediately reported the situation to the country and asked for instructions from the country. Gu Weijun also reported the status of the talks to Zhang Tinglan.
After leaving Lushun last time, the Fengtian aircraft carrier underwent simple maintenance and immediately headed to the South China Sea to start its first ocean training. Of course, this kind of training is not done for no reason. The training is only for one purpose. More importantly, it is to provide
The uprising in Nanyang came to an end.
With the development of industry and the enhancement of strength, China is also facing dual pressures at home and abroad. Externally, Japan, Russia, Britain and other countries are increasingly wary of China. With internal industrial development, the resource gap is getting larger and larger. Although China has
Vast land, but only lacks oil resources.
Although Zhang Tinglan knows that there are Daqing, Shengli, Xinjiang and other oil fields, these oil fields are either too deep or have complex geology and cannot be exploited now. However, the oil gap is increasing day by day, and huge sums of money are spent every year to buy oil from the United States.
Injecting a large amount of oil is definitely a waste.
If you want to break this dilemma, you must expand outward. The best direction is the Dutch East Indies! The Netherlands is an outdated country with limited strength, and the Dutch East Indies has a large amount of oil. The annual oil output is 5 million
About 1.5 million tons in Borneo alone.
And China's oil consumption is only 1.2 million tons! What's more, in addition to oil, Borneo also has rubber. It was 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 taking only
Some aircraft carrier battle groups were sent out.
On the third day after the South China Federation declared its founding, the Dutch colonial authorities issued a strongly worded statement, vowing to destroy the rebels.
After the Dutch issued a statement, China followed closely, expressing regret for the war in Nanyang and stating that in order to avoid a humanitarian crisis, China would send the aircraft carrier Fengtian southward. Overseas Chinese in Nanyang, if they feel that their personal safety has been compromised
If there is a threat, you can get help from the navy and withdraw back into the country.
After this statement was issued, China showed unprecedented efficiency. In Guangzhou Port, China gathered a total of eight large passenger ships, two 10,000-ton oil tankers, and a supply ship converted from a cruise ship, which was filled with grain.
and drinking water.
The eleven ships, escorted by two destroyers, slowly left Guangzhou Port. According to the plan, after the fleet went south, they would join the Fengtian aircraft carrier battle group under training, and then go south together.
Just when the fleet officially began to assemble, Chinese public opinion became agitated again. Over the years, Chinese people have been repeatedly massacred overseas. The century-old history of humiliation is full of blood and tears.
However, at that time, China was trampled under the feet of the great powers, let alone controlling these overseas wanderers. Now in the new era, China has enough power to protect her people.
When the huge fleet was assembled and ready to set off, countless people holding five-color flags appeared on the pier. Among them were many Chinese businessmen from Southeast Asia. When they saw this scene, they couldn't stop crying.
Come down.
When the overseas Chinese destroyed their families to provide relief and promote the domestic revolution, they did not just hope that the motherland would become stronger and they, the overseas Chinese, could live with more dignity. When they finally saw this scene, several old overseas Chinese even knelt down on the pier.
, crying bitterly, like a child.
Under the spotlight, the fleet slowly left the port, carrying the blessings and thoughts of the domestic people, and quickly headed south. When the fleet arrived in the Xisha waters, the Fengtian aircraft carrier battle group that had already assembled here finally joined in.
The reporters on board the ship finally saw the full picture of China's aircraft carrier battle group for the first time. China has not reported much about aircraft carriers. It was also the first time for these reporters to feel 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 Harbin and Jilin on both sides, two cruisers at the front and rear, and a dozen destroyers looking around.
, followed at the end by two oil tankers.
Of course, there are submarines following behind the water, which these reporters don't know yet, but just seeing these on the surface is enough to shock people's hearts.
The aircraft carrier battle group is the largest combat system ever built by mankind. The majestic aircraft carrier is also a symbol of national strength. Although it is still the era of big guns and giant ships, the ferocious aircraft carrier battle group has also shown its strength.
of deterrence.
After the aircraft carrier battle group and the passenger ships merged, more than thirty ships headed south together. This power made people almost breathless. The British had also known about the Chinese navy's southward movement for a long time, so they also mobilized several ships from the Far East Fleet.
Come to monitor the Chinese Navy.
China was not polite to the approaching British warships. The surrounding frigates could only easily block the British warships. The British could only watch from a distance and had no choice.
Another early morning came. The navy soldiers in the fleet and the reporters on the passenger ship all boarded the deck early. Not far ahead was the Zengmu Shoal, the southernmost tip of China!
Just last year, China released a new version of its map, which basically included the South China Sea within China's territory. The southernmost tip of the territory was marked on the Zengmu Shoal, a 20-meter reef that is always underwater.
To become a territory does require a strong imagination.
However, the Chinese Navy has no resistance to this. The South China Sea belongs to us, and we can row it however we want. If we are happy, we can just row the entire South China Sea in.
The sailors pointed excitedly, and the reporters simply set up cameras to record this place. Just when everyone was extremely excited, a telegram suddenly came from the submarine outside.
When Chen Jiliangli saw the telegram, he immediately frowned. According to the telegram, 6 to 7 British warships were coming here, including a battleship.
After receiving the news, Chen Jiliang immediately ordered the fleet to prepare for battle. On the issue of Nanyang, the British and the Dutch were wearing the same trousers. Now the sudden appearance of the British warships cannot help but make people think of it.
"The fighter plane takes off, intercept it immediately!"
Chen Jiliang gave an order, and all personnel on the aircraft carrier got busy. The fighter planes rose from the hangar to the deck. The pilots were ready, and the first batch of two reconnaissance planes took off.
Fighter planes roared into the sky 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 contingencies.
After learning that the Chinese fleet was heading south, the British had no choice but to send the Iron Duke to increase their presence in order to show their status as the overlord of Southeast Asia.
The majestic battleships took the lead and rushed to the forefront. The proud British Royal Navy did not pay attention to the Chinese navy at all. The last failure was because within China, if it reached the ocean, no one could be the opponent of the Royal Navy.
.
The British fleet was proud and wanted to make the Chinese look good. But at this moment, facing the rising sun, two reconnaissance planes searched from north to south and happened to spot the British fleet below.
The two reconnaissance planes circled over the British and immediately reported the situation to the rear. In less than half an hour, the first batch of eight aircraft, four fighters, and four dive bombers appeared over the British.
At the same time, China also sent a clear telegram, asking the British to immediately stop dangerous actions approaching the Chinese fleet and keep both sides at a safe distance.
It has become a habit for the British to be unscrupulous and they are not willing to be restrained. The Iron Duke still did not stop. At this time, the dive bomber piloted by Wang Weiguo suddenly rushed down from the clouds. The aircraft was like a cannonball and headed straight for the Iron Duke.
