After handling the urgent military situation, Qi Yu immediately transferred to the second hall of the provincial government office.
Because the clerk from the reception room has been waiting there for a long time.
Coincidentally, what he presented was also a military intelligence message.
To be more precise, it should be called a report on the current situation in Sarawak.
According to the news sent back by Duan Zicheng, the country is now basically attached to Qiongzhou Province, and the formal handover documents will be sent soon.
He believes that the reason why this matter was handled so smoothly is mainly related to three factors.
First, thanks to Leng Qing's behind-the-scenes operations, he has successively eliminated all dissident politicians. Looking around the entire government and opposition parties, there is basically no one who dares to say "no".
Secondly, it benefited from the food aid from Qiongzhou. It can be said that this move directly gained a lot of people's hearts and reduced the hatred to a minimum. Although the food was extorted from the Kingdom of Java, people salao
Yue people don't care at all. It doesn't matter where it comes from, as long as it can fill their stomachs, it is first-class good food.
There is also the statement issued by the Franco Kingdom. It clearly mentioned that Sarawak will no longer be protected in the future. As a result, those politicians with illusions simply gave up.
Under the superposition of these three factors, how can Sarawak not bow its head?
Leng Qing took advantage of this opportunity and made a decisive move.
For now, the situation is basically stable.
As for how to integrate resources in the future and how to plan and manage, Duan Zicheng is still weighing it and has not yet made a final decision.
However, this time should not drag on too long.
In addition to the above, Duan Zicheng also mentioned that he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to go south to 'plan' for the neighboring country of Java.
Uh...what's the motivation?
In other words, what is he planning?
Duan Zicheng explained that in the recent "Potato War", the Qiongzhou Army intimidated the entire country with its absolute intimidation. It barely took a few shots before the opponent gave up its symbolic resistance.
After that, he obediently handed over the potatoes for compensation.
Is this battle won?
Yes!
But, this is not the point.
The point is that the amount of compensation paid by the other party is much higher than the original estimate.
At that time, we made an asking price and said that we would only take half of the harvest for consumption, while leaving the other half for Java to grow food. This move was mainly intended to demonstrate the Chinese virtue of killing people without giving up.
But who would have thought that the amount of this half would actually reach a million catties!
My good boy!
This really made Duanzi Cheng extremely happy.
However, after calming down, he made an objective analysis: Tell me, why are there so many accumulations of potatoes in Java?
In other words, why is it so productive?
Simply put, there are two reasons.
First, the area has summer-like weather all year round and a humid climate, which is very conducive to planting crops with short growth cycles. Not only can you obtain high yields in harvest, but you can also cultivate more crops throughout the season.
Second, Java is an island country with a very large population, and the most indispensable thing is the labor force working barefoot. As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers, so their harvests have such support.
These two points are what really attract Duan Zicheng.
Especially the population is even more coveted. Not to mention anything else, the recruitment alone is enough to support a large reserve force.
“The fact that there are so many people is really tempting!”
"Well, thinking about that land of aliens, there are no good entertainment projects on weekdays. The only fun seems to be to enjoy the process of creating humans. It is estimated that this is why their population is like this
of prosperity.”
However, Qi Yu did not attach too much importance to the area's high grain yield.
Today's Qiongzhou does not lack fertile land. There is not much of it, but there is not much of it.
Of course, there’s nothing wrong with icing on the cake.
No one would dislike having a lot of food at home~~
From an overall perspective, if Java can be captured, the entire Southeast Asia will basically be unified. Except for Sumatra in the west, there will no longer be any need to worry about intrusion from any enemy country.
This plays a vital role in promoting the stability of a government.
After weighing the situation, Qi Yu made it clear that he strongly agreed with Duan Zicheng's idea of launching a second 'Potato War'.
Moreover, he also gave relevant important instructions: Fighting is okay! But never kill innocent people indiscriminately!
In Qi Yu's impression, Duan Zicheng was a person who would do whatever it took to achieve his goals. If he didn't give him special instructions, there was a chance that something like massacre would happen.
In addition, he also said that if the matter succeeds or fails, it will be affected. Don't lose too many troops and generals. Otherwise, your reputation will be damaged.
It is absolutely not worthwhile to destroy a beautiful jade for the sake of a stubborn stone.
Qi Yu firmly believed that with Duan Zicheng's experience and ability, he would be able to understand his true intention and handle it properly.
…
The next day.
It was a beautiful sunny day, with a cool north wind.
Just after breakfast, Qi Yu rode his horse to the bicycle factory in the city.
Accompanying him was a young man dressed as a guard. Upon closer inspection, it was Fan Yao.
It's indeed him.
After Qi Qingyun's Western Expedition, he specially kept this person behind for the purpose of protecting the Qi family compound.
The Qi family is the anchor of the entire Southeast Asia. In terms of safety, there must not be any mistakes.
Faced with such an initiative, Qi Yu agreed without even thinking about it.
At the moment, Xiaotong is not at home, and she really needs someone with excellent martial arts to look after the home and care for the home. What's wrong with this?
Your family is your life, so you must pay special attention to it.
Fan Yao was honored to accept this task.
Being able to serve Master Qi is a supreme personal honor. This is enough to make you stink for the rest of your life.
Qi Qingyun thought so too.
Unexpectedly.
Speaking of Qi Yu, after arriving at the bicycle factory, he immediately called the person in charge of the factory.
"I asked, how are the military bicycles I arranged so far being manufactured?"
"Come back, sir, we are working overtime, day and night. At present, we have finally produced more than a thousand vehicles."
"Then...how is the quality?"
“It is exactly the same as the sample when confirmed!”
oh?
Very good!
Qi Yu nodded with satisfaction and said: "Leave these to me first, I need them urgently now!"
As for where it was needed urgently, he didn't say it clearly.
However, Fan Yao guessed the outline: Well, it must be to support the Western Expedition.
