Chapter 1660: Intrigue and deception

On August 27, after three days of consultations, Phaya Song and Phaya Lit issued telegrams one after another, declaring their submission to the Nan Hua government, and their troops disarmed on the spot and accepted the reorganization of the Anjia Army.

In the past few days, the situation in Siam has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Due to the accidental death of Marshal Bing Chun Hawang in the bombing, the entire Siamese army central cluster was leaderless. Coupled with the constant bombing and the pursuers clinging to the rear, the Siamese army was in chaos.

Finally, except for three incomplete divisions withdrew across the Chao Phraya River, the rest dispersed into the countryside and went home to be obedient citizens.

The police forces in various parts of Siam originally relied on their bravery to block the progress of the An family army. Looking back, they saw that the regular troops were withdrawing. How could they dare to use their arms as a chariot? So the resistance turned into a welcome. In some places, the governor even brought an army with him.

Deputy Governor and Assistant Governor, and

The directors of the Education Bureau, Health Bureau, Veterinary Bureau, Land Bureau, Taxation Bureau, Military Service Bureau and other bureaus welcomed An Jiajun into the city. After the power was announced in Phayasong and Phayalip, the speed of this defection accelerated, except in western Siam.

Outside a few prefectures, other places are almost decided by word of mouth.

The Anjia Army Headquarters also struck while the iron was hot. Although there were heavy rains all over Siam, in the newly liberated areas, armed police forces continued to station despite the wind and rain. After the army took over the local power, military control committees at all levels were successively established, and working groups were quickly established.

Going deep into the cities and rural areas, the scene of the liberation of Nanhua was re-enacted in Siam, but this time the technique was more familiar and the effect was better.

Siam is a multi-ethnic country. As of the end of 2007, among the 15 million people in the country, Siamese accounted for about 72% of the total population, Chinese accounted for 23%, and Malays accounted for 23%.

Three percent, other Khmer, Mon, Hoang Ye people

, ethnic groups such as the Karen and expatriates from other countries account for 2%. Seriously speaking, the Siamese actually belong to the Tibetan-speaking ethnic group and have the same origin as the Dai and Zhuang people in my country. They are descendants of the Baiyue people in ancient China. It is considered a branch of the Chinese nation.

Therefore, after the working group entered cities and villages, the first thing they did was to publicize their ethnic origins, claiming that the Siamese people are actually the Dai people in China and a branch of the Chinese people. The Siamese return to China this time is to recognize their ancestors and return to their clan.

.Many Siamese are hesitant and worried about being discriminated against, but

Among the staff who went door-to-door to register, many were Dai cadres drawn from southern Yunnan. They were smiling, courteous, and meticulous in explaining policies. They quickly explained the rights and obligations of Nanhua citizens.

Explaining them one by one makes people's hearts a little more stable.

As for those officials who took the initiative to surrender, the Nan Hua government did not treat them badly. They were recruited to Bangkok and attended cram schools set up there. They first mastered Chinese characters and Chinese, as well as related policies and regulations, and were assigned to them after passing the exam. According to the plan, Siam

In the future, two municipalities and two provinces will be established. Municipalities and provinces will be divided into four levels: city, county (district), township, and village. A large number of officials will be needed, and there is no need to worry about lack of place to place them.

On the 28th, after five consecutive days of heavy rain in Siam and southern South China, it gradually stopped. After arranging military and political affairs, An Yi and the ambassadors of various countries stationed in Beijing took a special plane to Bangkok.

In the past few days, news reports about the massacre in Bangkok have frequently appeared in newspapers and radio stations, causing an uproar internationally. In particular, magazines that were quickly sent to Europe by air to distribute photos of the scene caused an uproar internationally. No one expected that,

The white race also had such a humiliating moment. Coupled with the abuse and torture suffered by expatriates from various countries during the previous indigenous riots in Burma, Malaya, British Borneo and India, calls for resolute suppression and attack on the indigenous peoples have emerged one after another.

Under this circumstance, Bangkok began a large-scale screening of criminals, and the criminals who participated in the riots with conclusive evidence were published and their evidence and witness testimonies were publicly executed. As batches of mobs were sanctioned, the accumulated resentment gradually gradually

disappeared and Bangkok began to return to normal.

After the plane flew smoothly at an altitude of six thousand meters, U.S. Ambassador Alfred stood up and leaned in front of the porthole. He looked at the fighter jets on both sides that were escorting the special plane, and then he came to the empty seat opposite An Yi and sat down.

After the service staff brought the hot coffee, he asked An Yi bluntly:

"Mr. Chairman, I can understand your country's move to send troops to Siam to defend the rights and interests of the Chinese, but now with the occupation of the capital of Siam, can the military operation come to an end temporarily? When will your army leave Siam's territory?

Evacuate?"

An Yi was wondering whether the bonds to be issued in the United States tomorrow would be affected by tensions in Europe. When he heard Alfred's question, he was slightly startled, raised his head, and smiled at the other party:

"Mr. Ambassador, when to end the military operations in Siam is not something I can decide by just thinking about it, but it depends on the actual situation in Siam. We must get confirmation that there is no right for the cities and villages of Siam to

There are armed forces that threaten the Chinese and expatriates from various countries.

Strength exists, and our army will register every Siamese to ensure that they are not aggressive. This is a prerequisite for ensuring Siam's self-determination. What happened in Bangkok has given us a great warning, and we cannot take it for granted.

The future of the Chinese is risky.”

An Yi responded politely, but he kept complaining in his heart: Germany annexed Austria, Czechoslovakia, and the United States did nothing about it. Now it is staring at Siam eagerly. Isn't it because Nanhua is easy to bully? Wait a few days

day, germany invades poland

, I am afraid that the United States will not have much time to care about Asian affairs. It seems that in two or three months, when the situation in Siam has stabilized, it will also imitate the Germans and hold a referendum. Then, even if the Americans are unwilling to do so, I am afraid they will have no choice but to

He pinched his nose and admitted.

However, before the European war officially breaks out, it is obviously of no benefit to have a hard-on relationship with the Americans. The only option is to follow the other side's tone and talk nonsense.

At this time, German Ambassador Merkel came over with a coffee cup, smiled and said hello to American Ambassador Alfred, then sat down next to him and politely said to An Yi:

"Mr. Chairman, I very much agree with you. For the barbaric indigenous people, we must let them understand that the civilized world must not be insulted lightly. Moreover, I think it is necessary for advanced countries to help them when the time is right."

and lead them onto the right path, just as the United States did with Mexico, Hawaii, Panama, Cuba, and the Philippines at the end of the last century. Am I right, Mr. Alfred?"

Alfred didn't think there was anything wrong with this at all: "Civilization is always moving forward. Different historical periods have different rules. The current rules are peace, national self-determination, and the United States.

I hope our new friends will also be so strict with themselves. Moreover, we have now withdrawn our troops from the Philippines and Cuba. Isn’t this a good example for the free world?”

Merkel pouted: "Mr. Ambassador, why don't you say this to the British and French ambassadors? Britain and France occupy most of the colonies in the world and live a prosperous life by squeezing the colonial people. If they agree,

Mr. Alfred’s opinion, I think the world will be truly peaceful!”

"I said, those are all issues left over from history!"

Alfred did not give in: "It is precisely because these old accounts left over from history are difficult to sort out for a while, so we must be more cautious when dealing with new problems that arise. Mr. Chairman, please forgive me for making it clear that our government

I hope your country can withdraw from Siam as soon as possible and give the people there independent rights."

An Yi frowned and his face became serious: "Mr. Ambassador, why are you so aggressive? I have already said that this is impossible in a short time. I cannot watch the lives of the Chinese in Siam.

and property security are threatened! Our military has a large amount of video data of the Bangkok riots, and all the ambassadors can see it with their own eyes after arriving in Bangkok. In the face of violence, we cannot retreat in any way, otherwise it will be condoning crime!"

"Isn't the chairman worried about the safety of the bonds issued by your country in the United States?" Alfred threatened.

An Yi laughed angrily: "Haha, this is the funniest joke I have heard today... I'm sorry, Mr. Ambassador, I don't think you have the ability to influence the political and economic decisions of the United States. Nanhua is in the United States

Issuing bonds is a win-win situation for both countries. Our country will receive urgently needed funds for development, while your country’s idle funds will have a place to invest. Just imagine, with an annual interest rate of 10%, up to 50 million U.S. dollars in interest per year.

, which country in the world today offers a higher price than us? It is precisely because of the strong appeal of our bonds that the British government has reached an agreement with us and requires the issuance of 125 million pounds of bonds in London before the end of September.

This fully shows that it is not the generosity of the United States, but that it is indeed profitable. To be honest, I don’t think Mr. can affect the enthusiasm of the plutocrats in the United States for Nanhua Bonds!”

Alfred was speechless. He did not expect that the British would be interested in Nanhua bonds. You must know that national bonds are guaranteed by national credit. The British's move was obviously optimistic about Nanhua's repayment ability.

The ambassador shrugged self-deprecatingly. Apparently he understood his own weight and had to find another topic: "Our Congress is discussing whether to provide economic assistance to China to punish Japan for its invasion of China. After Japan occupied the Far East and Siberia,

, its government and military have successively announced that they will establish a military base covering Japan, North Korea, Ryukyu, Taiwan, Hainan, Lanyin, Far East and China.

The "Greater East Asia New Order" based on cooperation in politics, economy, culture and other areas, including North China, Manchukuo and other regions, requires other countries to "face up to the new situation in East Asia" and refute the "gateway" advocated by our government.

"Opening up policy" means that it will make every effort to build a new East Asian group and ensure that Japan has a self-sufficient economic system like the United Kingdom and the United States.

"In response to Japan's change, the State Council made a strong protest both verbally and in writing, accusing Japan of unilaterally abandoning binding international conventions and refuting Japan's so-called continued maintenance of conventions that depends on the United States accepting the Far East's new

order' argument, pointing out that the Open Door Policy is not just for the United States

It has greatly promoted the political and economic stability of China and other relevant countries. Changes to existing conventions can only be accepted through reasonable negotiations.

He is not recognized as the founder of a 'new order' outside the scope of his own sovereignty."

An Yi suddenly said: "No wonder the U.S. Congress approved a loan of 50 million US dollars to the Nanjing National Government of China in June. This loan was used to repay the debt with Chinese bristle and tung oil. It seems that the U.S. government is targeting Japan.

It’s the reaction of people’s small actions.”

Alfred nodded: "This matter is personally responsible for our Finance Minister, Mr. Morgenthau. The United States of America believes that through our goodwill actions, we can inspire the Nanjing government's confidence in resisting Japan and promote the struggle of countries around the world to defend democracy and oppose aggression."

It can be seen that we are very repulsive towards occupying other countries' territories, so I hope Mr. Chairman can give more consideration to my proposal."

Before An Yi could answer, Merkel retorted disdainfully: "I'm sorry, Ambassador Alfred, I heard that your country's Secretary of State, Mr. Hull, believes that the loan will aggravate the conflict with Japan and even lead to a rift between the two countries."

There was a conflict, so there was strong opposition. The direct result was that although the loan bill was passed by Congress, the U.S. government has been withholding it and not handed it over to the Chinese government.

“Currently, Japan occupies a strategically active position in the Pacific region, occupying China’s Hainan Island and Nansha Islands to the west, the Lanyin Islands to the south, Taiwan to the north, and the Marshall Islands acquired from my country in the last European War to the east. Rolling Islands and Mariana Islands, have

The Philippines is tightly surrounded, and it will be a matter of time before the Philippines is lost. The 100,000 army troops in your country are probably not enough for the Japanese. They are still hesitant and do not know how to use money to bribe other countries to fight for them. I guess

Destruction is not far away..."

Alfred sneered: "Huh! If your country and Italy hadn't created tension in Europe, why would this be the case? Last month, Japan blocked a British residential area in Tianjin, forcing British residents to leave or enter the residence.

I took off my clothes before. London is worried that a crisis in the Far East will fuel your head of state's ambitions towards Poland. At the same time,

In order to ensure the security of the North Atlantic route, the United Kingdom did not have enough capital ships to fight in Asia, so it had no way to respond. It had no choice but to sign the Arita-Credit Agreement on the 24th of last month, which recognized Japan on the condition of retaining the Tianjin Concession.

The special status in China recognizes that the Japanese military has the responsibility to maintain law and order in the occupied areas!"

Seeing the tension between the two of them and the atmosphere becoming increasingly tense, An Yi persuaded: "These issues can be left to the big shots to worry about. Let's return to the reality of Siam. Britain, France, Germany and the United States all sent troops to Bangkok.

The military has responded well so far. Mr. Alfred and Mr. Merkel, do you think we can form a unified action mechanism to jointly deal with similar troubles?"

Alfred regretfully said: "Our country can only take action when the rights and interests of the United States are harmed. If it were not for the inhumane treatment of American expatriates in Bangkok this time, Congress may not agree to this plan. On the whole, our country

The isolation mentality in the country is serious,

The president's proposals last month to embargo military supplies to the Japanese army, allocate funds to build fortifications in Guam, and move the Pacific Fleet from San Diego to Pearl Harbor were all rejected. Under such circumstances, it is necessary to reach a military cooperation agreement.

, it will be very difficult!”

Merkel scoffed: "So our head of state insists that 'the United States has no sense of presence in Asia and Europe at all. Because of its mixed race and blood, it is impossible to build a sound economy, create its own inherent culture or implement a successful

Political system', the head of state believed that the United States was 'desperate and weak' and had no ability to interfere in Germany's great cause of rejuvenation. The head of state also believed that the Washington Treaty of the 1920s had tied the hands of Britain, France, the United States and other countries.

At the same time, Japan successfully restricted other countries from increasing base facilities and defenses in the Western Pacific. They were not allowed to establish or expand naval bases in the area east of 110° in Hong Kong and Tokyo. The United States also lost the opportunity to build any base west of the Hawaiian Islands into a supportable base.

Opportunities for large bases for fleet operations. In this way, once a war breaks out between Japan and the United States, Japan's favorable location and time will allow it to take advantage and quickly project its forces to any corner of the Western Pacific."
