1890 King of Southeast Asia

"Your Majesty? This is the first time I see you since you became the emperor. It's not easy!" Cyril observed Liu Yiming's office and found nothing changed.

"Oh! In fact, according to our tradition, I will ascend the throne next year, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs should have notified you and the UK." Liu Yiming nodded to Cyril.

"So, Mr. Cyril, I heard that you insist on seeing me? And you are unwilling to wait."

Cyril's mouth twitched. He started the reception process in December last year, but it was not passed until March this year. Is this called unwilling to wait?

"Your Majesty! We are a little interested in the agreement you reached with the French." Cyril looked at Liu Yiming sincerely.

Liu Yiming stood up straight, avoiding Cyril's gaze and looked out the window: "What agreement? No! We have not reached any secret agreement with France."

"Your Majesty! The British will never accept that there are French allies stationed next to Malacca!" Cyril was a little angry.

"I've said it before, there's no secret agreement." Liu Yiming had a smile in his eyes.

"Do you promise?" Cyril asked.

"On my conscience!" Liu Yiming nodded, very sincerely.

Cyril doesn't believe in conscience. Do you expect professional politicians to have conscience? Ha! Then you're wrong. They're only a little better than capitalists.

"Your Majesty, Britain hopes to get the airship technology transferred." Cyril sat on the chair, "and hopes not to transfer this technology to some dangerous countries."

"Come on, Cyril, Germany has already made it. Although it's a little behind, this technology is not unique to Nanhua. If you want to exchange it for technology, we will accept it." Liu Yiming signaled the secretary to pour him a cup of tea.

"Germany has already made it?" Cyril stared at Liu Yiming deeply.

"Don't look at me like that. You know, the Germans have a narrower vision. They just stare at his broken islands. If I close the Java Sea, he can't even sail through. I can't sell it to him!" Liu Yiming meant something.

"Your Majesty, your attitude towards land reminds me of the Tsar. You will definitely become friends." Cyril said in a sarcastic tone.

"Just for the airship? It's just a large balloon. I can sell it as long as you pay." Liu Yiming picked up the teacup and didn't drink it.

"Your Majesty! Nanhua and France are too close! This will cause misunderstandings in the British Empire!" Cyril straightened his waist and said seriously.

"Oh! Cyril, Nanhua is undergoing strategic contraction. I have done many wrong things in the past. I am now trying to make up for my mistakes. Nanhua will not easily join any disputes." Liu Yiming said.

"Is this your promise? Your Majesty." Cyril took advantage of the victory to pursue.

"You can think so." Liu Yiming nodded.

Although Britain and France are enemies, the fundamental conflict between the two sides is not great. France's interests are concentrated in Africa and Southeast Asia, while Britain's interests... are not concentrated. The sun never sets on the empire.

But France will not threaten India, and it is an important part of the strategy to maintain the balance of the continent - to contain the increasingly powerful France.

Britain's focus is on Tsarist Russia, stopping Tsarist Russia's exploration of the ocean and its spying on India. In short, don't give Tsarist Russia the opportunity to expand.

"I heard from the grapevine that the Japanese are selecting secret envoys to visit Nanhua? Your Majesty, I have to remind you that secret diplomacy is improper!" Cyril picked up another thing.

"Oh! I really didn't expect this matter to alarm Britain... I just need to discuss fishing areas with Japan. They always cross-border fishing. If this continues, I'm afraid that fishermen will attack Japanese fishing boats in anger." Liu Yiming took a sip of tea.

Cyril's mouth twitched, "Anyway..."

"You see, Sir, you don't take this seriously at all. In fact, many fishermen belong to the Construction Corps residents. The Construction Corps is a semi-militarized unit with standard weapons.

Last month, fishermen in Ryukyu attacked with 2mm infantry artillery. Fortunately, they did not encounter Japanese fishing boats." Liu Yiming said seriously.

"The next tone of Nanhua is peace, which is why I chose to escape instead of sending more troops to Ryukyu."

Cyril didn't know whether to believe such a shocking thing. The fishing boat with 2mm going out to sea always sounded familiar (just an old tradition of the Saxons).

"Since the United States firmly opposes Japan's sending secret envoys, this plan has been shelved. I believe they will soon issue a formal diplomatic announcement, hoping to have a face-to-face conversation with Nanhua. I believe that the normalization of relations between the two countries is a good thing for the whole world." Cyril began to shift his firepower.

Whether others believe it or not, Liu Yiming believed it anyway: "In this case..."

"Your Majesty, the Qing Empire forwarded a telegram from the Japanese government, hoping to negotiate on the issue of the Ryukyu Islands." Secretary Wang pushed open the door and hurried.

"Cyril, look, who is destroying the peace?" Liu Yiming glanced at the telegram and threw it to Cyril.

"Oh! It is normal to have some disputes. Besides, there are only Japanese on it..." Cyril did not continue speaking because Liu Yiming pulled open the world map behind him.

"Order! The first, fourth, sixth, seventh, ninth and tenth destroyer squadrons, totaling 36 destroyers, and eight torpedo boat squadrons, are transferred to Ryukyu. The Xianyang will go north to Ryukyu and wait for orders, and the cruiser fleet will go to the Hawaiian naval base and wait for orders." Then Liu Yiming turned around and looked at Cyril.

"What did you say? Sorry, I didn't hear it clearly just now. By the way, in order to prevent the Japanese from a possible sneak attack on Medan Port, I need to send a destroyer squadron to station." Liu Yiming pointed to the location of Malacca.

"The British Empire does not allow Nanhua to increase its garrison in Malacca!" Cyril was furious: "And how did you learn the French trick? The Green Water Sect is all heresy!"

"We established the navy with the idea of ​​local defense. We only have more than 100 destroyers. If we change to ten battleships, don't you think this is a provocation to Britain?" Liu Yiming said in an innocent tone.

"For example, Japan, whose people are living in dire straits, insists on maintaining a fleet of six battleships and plans to expand its cruisers. It's clear who is the unstable factor, isn't it?" The tone was slightly sarcastic.

"Your Majesty, didn't you say that you would negotiate with Japan with the idea of ​​peace?" Cyril took a long time to recover.

"Ryukyu is a sacred and inseparable part of Nanhua!" Liu Yiming recited this sentence in an aria like a poem.

"There are no Japanese on it, only Chinese, Ryukyu people, and a small number of ethnic people, all of whom are Nanhua people."

"I know, I will tell the Japanese government, you don't have to be so radical." Cyril was really a bit of a headache.

Once the war started, at such a close distance, Nanhua could completely force the Japanese to fight a decisive battle. With thousands of destroyers and torpedo boats, God knows how Japan could stop them.

"Cyril, Nanhua and the British Empire have a deep traditional friendship. In the past ten years, both sides have a solid foundation in trade and strategic cooperation. I even thought about our alliance; but the British approach really hurt the people of Nanhua." Liu Yiming began to play the emotional card.

"This is just a misunderstanding, Your Majesty, you know, we can't oppose the decision made by the Prime Minister. Our two years of diplomatic efforts can be completely destroyed by the Prime Minister in just one meal..." Cyril complained bitterly.

"Let's talk about this later! Cyril, Nanhua will not go against the British Empire, but we are also tired of the war. We need time to rest and don't want to be involved in disputes again! The various agreements signed with the French... will not affect the British!" Liu Yiming said sincerely.

Cyril was half-believing and half-doubting, but Britain still did what it had to do.

At the end of March, Japan and the United States signed a silk trade agreement, exchanging raw silk for cotton.

In early April, three super-large textile mills in Japan were built, and the machinery was from the UK, bought with borrowed pounds.

In mid-April, Japanese envoy Saito Ichiro arrived in Nanhua.

In early March, Lord Roberts repelled Ladysmith's Boers. In mid-March, a total of 11 British infantry divisions, one cavalry division, and a heavy force of 250,000 people attacked the Orange Free State.

After intensive bombardment of Bronquan, the British army easily captured it, with the Boers losing 3,000 people and the British losing more than 100 people.

"Sir! Your talent is incredible!" The chief of staff praised Lord Roberts' tactics, with artillery concentrated to cover the infantry advance.

"This is what I learned in the Luzon Islands. The Nanhua people used naval artillery to cover their army in this way." Roberts smiled.

"You are right, Orange has fallen!" Franco sat on the side of the road in a depressed mood.

"Stand up, you are the commander of this army, you can't fall down no matter what!" Wang Tinghan kicked him.

"Everyone is confused, what can I do?" Franco said puzzledly.

"Take down the next stronghold and kill more British." Wang Tinghan shrugged.

"War is like this, you kill me, I kill you, until one side dies or surrenders. The winner takes all, and the loser has nothing and is worthless." Wang Tinghan noticed that many people noticed this.

"I know that everyone hates war, but the war has already started. If we surrender now, then why should we fight the war? To witness the death of our friends with our own eyes?" Wang Tinghan fooled this group of people who had never been to school.

"We must understand one thing! Even if we surrender, it is after completing the revenge, and we have not lost! Transvaal is still resisting, and President Orange has established a new capital.

Even if it is captured again, we can still build the next one! The next one! As long as we don't give up resistance! We haven't lost!" Wang Tinghan's statement made the crowd talk.

"Then what should we do?" Someone in the crowd shouted.

"Good question! Look at what we have done in the past half month?" Wang Tinghan asked.

"We attacked six convoys and killed at least two hundred British!" a red-necked man said to the person next to him.

"There are seven more strongholds. Marshall died in an attack on a stronghold." A thin young man said.

"Don't be sad, young man. We killed four hundred British." An old man next to him comforted.

"Yes! How many hundreds of Indians are there? A thousand?" A child who looked sixteen or seventeen years old added.

"Also us! We joined in the middle, we now have 2,000 people!" Said a group of people with different equipment.

"We are more than this person, but there are many wounded. There are not many medicines." A man holding the 1888 rifle said.

"Ammunition is the same, and my barrel has been corroded and needs to be replaced, but there are no parts. I should take some last time." A person holding Li Enfield added.

"I have a way to buy weapons, medicines, ammunition." Wang Tinghan said.

"We have nothing, but there is still a little gold." The red neck stood out. Soon, more and more people came forward.

"I know a vault." Franco said in Wang Tinghan's ear: "Except for weapons and ammunition, I hope you continue to lead us. The gold in the vault is yours. Believe me, you will be heartbroken."

"So!" Wang Tinghan shouted.

Everyone was quiet and looked at the man.

"Clear the weapons, wipe the artillery seized last time, and feed the horse. The next goal, Douglas, this is an important node of the British supplies, destroying it, at least it can delay the British for a month!" Essence

"But we don't have no artillery." Everyone was ready to cheer, and the red neck man suddenly interrupted.

"It doesn't matter, I can get it, ready! We are going to kill the British guy!" Wang Tinghan waved his hand chic and turned to ride on the horse: "Franco and me, go to the shells, you rest here and train. "

"Is this the direction of going to Kimberley?" Franco drove the carriage.

"Yes, I know an English official, he can help us, keep calm, so must be, or surrender?" Wang Tinghan said in a word that Franco was silent.

"Will he sell it? Instead of a shot that it has collapsed us?" Franco was not optimistic.

"That's not enough bids, everyone has a price." Wang Tinghan said.

"How much is you worth?" Franco asked.

"Two dollars." Wang Tinghan said seriously.
