Chapter 298 Ultimatum
Chapter 298 Ultimatum
As Hun Sen talked, he couldn't help but stand up with some anxiety. The conflict between the Chinese and indigenous ethnic groups is not a matter of one day or two in Cambodians and even in the entire Southeast Asia.
But hundreds of years have passed, and no one in the entire Southeast Asian country has really solved this problem. Most of the people in Southeast Asian countries have struggled and inhumane massacres. Although the party who is persecuted every time is Chinese, it seems that the indigenous people have taken advantage of this kind of internal friction. However, there has never been even a country in the entire Southeast Asian country.
Hun Sen was thinking while talking. In fact, when he was talking about Sang Xiong, wasn’t he trying to convince himself?
In a state of anxiety, he felt that he was so bored inside the house. Finally, he walked to the window in the office and suddenly pushed open the window. Outside the window was the bright breeze and the moon was bright. A gust of night wind blew, and the coolness hit him, which woke up Hong Sen's anxious heart. Instead, he calmed down. Suddenly, his mind was clear, and many questions that he couldn't understand suddenly became cheerful.
"We have to change, we have to change this idea, we must change, otherwise we will definitely not be able to escape from this bad circle of history!"
Finally, Hun Sen drank the tea in the teacup in one gulp, and suddenly said heavily to the three people in the house.
"Change, how do you change?"
Sang Xiong didn't want to lose his sense of pride as an indigenous person. He didn't want to be compared with the local Chinese one day. This is not a sense of racial superiority, it is purely a strange sense of jealousy and fear.
In fact, in the hearts of the vast majority of Southeast Asian indigenous people, they are more afraid while hating Chinese. In fact, these local indigenous peoples who are simply uncivilized are almost all led to civilization by the Chinese who have entered Southeast Asia for hundreds of years. But the more they do so, the more they feel scared.
To put it bluntly, it is better to say that they are afraid from the bottom of their hearts if they want to maintain their sense of glory in front of the Chinese. They know that the Chinese are smart and they know that the Chinese are capable, but because of this, they are really afraid that once the Chinese become stronger one day, they will one day be above their heads and rule them and enslave them. Even if the Chinese have even had many opportunities to do this over the past few hundred years, but they have not done so, and they cannot help them to drive away the fear in their hearts.
That's why they thought of suppressing Chinese people and not allowing Chinese people to develop rapidly on the land they thought they were themselves. This almost pathological idea has almost been rooted in the minds of the entire Southeast Asian natives, making it impossible for them to pull them out of it. But today, Hun Sen said that they would change, and Sang Xiong's eyes were wide open. He felt that what Hun Sen said and did now might change history, even the history of the entire Southeast Asian Chinese.
"We can't treat Chinese people like this anymore. From the perspective of the principle of fairness, fairness, freedom and democracy, we cannot stand firm!"
It seemed as if something was attracting Hun Sen's gaze outside the window. He stared at him tightly, but there seemed to be a flame burning in his eyes, but he said very clearly:
"At the same time, our approach is also unscientific and hinders the law of historical development. Every time the indigenous people and Chinese fight, it seems that the indigenous people will win every time, but in fact it does not benefit our country at all, and it will even make society regress and history will not move forward!"
Hun Sen seemed to be reflecting and thinking, but his words were clearly conveyed to the ears of the three people in the house: "And it is unfair for us to do this, both for Chinese and natives. The development of a tribe of a tribe must not exist like a parasite. Why do we locals have been unable to compete with Chinese? It is not because they are not smart, but because their heads are stupider than Chinese…"
Finally at this time, Hun Sen slowly turned his head. He sighed and his tone became low, but his words became more determined. He turned around and looked at the three soldiers in the house seriously. At this time, he suddenly found that the only Chinese major general among the three, Li Qi was already crying after hearing his words. Seeing these tears, he felt extremely emotional. He looked at Sang Xiong deeply and said:
"Old Sang, have you ever thought that we locals have never been able to compare with Chinese people. There is actually only one reason, and it is also the reason why we have been denying unwilling to admit it. That is, our local natives are much lazy than Chinese. Whether in terms of mental outlook, attitude and seriousness in doing things, they are far inferior to Chinese. This is the truth that our natives have always been unable to compare with Chinese people!"
"Foreign Minister, how can you... you say that to us locals? They are actually working very hard, but the Chinese are all in groups. Once their funds have formed an advantage, we cannot compete with them. This is the experience that some local vendors have told us!"
Sang Xiong was confused at that moment. In fact, he knew that what Hun Sen said made sense, and he even thought about it in his heart sometimes, but... but locals all have a common problem and don't want to consider these things, so he murmured about something he knew.
"Old Sang, do you really think so? Look at the Li family in front of you, and you, Major General Ai Qiang, and you, let me say it too!"
Hun Sen smiled bitterly. He felt as if he had accidentally lifted the woman's shorts, which made the two native generals in front of him blush. He wanted to refute but was so powerless. So he sighed and pointed at Li Qi:
"Li family, the only Chinese general in our temporary political army, most of his subordinates are Chinese. He ate the same rice and used the same equipment as our other troops, and even... I even know that since they are Chinese, their equipment cannot be compared with Major General Ai Qiang's army, right?"
Ai Qiang's face turned redder after hearing what Hun Sen said. He looked at Li Jia, who was already in tears with complicated eyes, but he couldn't say a word. He could not agree with it, but he had no confidence to shake his head against Hun Sen's words. He said that what he said was groundless because this was actually an unwritten rule in the political army. The treatment of the Chinese army was much worse than that of the local army.
"But even if the Li family and their army are treated worse than those of our locals, our generals, you all know the combat effectiveness of the soldiers brought by the Li family. Although I have not been to the front line for a long time, as long as I see the results reported from the front line, there are even those you have swallowed up. But we cannot deny the fact that even in this case, the Li family's army has a higher combat effectiveness than our locals' army. Can you deny it?"
Hun Sen said lightly, but the house was as quiet as death. The only change was that Li Qibi's body was erect and suddenly turned his face and wiped his tears. Only he knew how much more he had to pay as a Chinese major general, than Ai Qiang around him.
"Lao Sang, these are all your own soldiers. The Li family is also your favorite general. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to reach such a high position. Can you still say that they are the real reason for their success by joining together to engage in conspiracy?"
Hun Sen sighed and couldn't help but feel convinced: "That's because once the Chinese people have determined a goal, they will complete him and conquer him wholeheartedly without fear of difficulties and obstacles. If they can't do it in one day, they can use two days, and if they can't do it in two days, they can use three days and four days, or even like Yugong moving mountains, they are all very hardworking and hard-working. They are extremely imitated by our locals!"
"Then...will the gap be bigger and bigger if they get the same political status as our locals? Besides, if Chinese people have ambitions, it will definitely be a nightmare for us locals. Foreign Minister, you have to consider these too!"
Hun Sen's words made Sang Xiong speechless. He wanted to admit it. However, when he looked at the Li family who was crying, the hearts of people were made of flesh. Li family had five wounds on their bodies, which were all obtained from several fierce battles with Pol Pot and the British colonists. Once, in order to cover his retreat, Li family was almost killed in the chest. Even if he thought that Chinese people could not be on an equal footing with the locals, in fact, the Chinese general around him was their most combative force in Cambodia and his most recognized confidant. This is an indisputable fact. What else can he say?
Sang Xiong couldn't say anything, but Ai Qiang, the young man next to him, started talking. To be honest, his idea basically represents the fear of the young generation of locals for Chinese people. These young people even shouted the slogan to let all Chinese get out of Cambodia.
"You are so confused. Do you really don't understand?"
Facing Ai Qiang's shouting, Hun Sen shook his head and smiled bitterly, but for some reason he showed some fear in his eyes: "Have you ever thought about it? If the Chinese are really able to join forces as you said, and still have the determination to fight with us locals, do you think you can really fight against the Chinese?"
At that moment, the fear in Hun Sen's eyes flew away in a blink of an eye and gradually became colder, but what he said from his mouth shocked the whole room. Even Li Qi, who was crying, was shocked, and looked at Hun Sen with horror.
"You must know that in the entire Southeast Asian country, the number of Chinese people is no longer a small number. The number of them is at least 20 million. In our Cambodia, there are only 600,000 on the surface, but how many are there? 800,000? One million? Can you be sure of it?"
Hun Sen showed a solemn expression on his face: "Chinese people are richer than us. In fact, since there are their chambers of commerce in the entire Southeast Asia, they actually have much more resources than us. They have been suppressed and beaten by us over the years, and even have several massacres. The most important reason is that they do not join forces and do not have the ambition to truly control a country. In fact, most Chinese people are very willing to settle for reality. As long as they have a bite of food, they have never thought of rebelling. They are the best gangs of people to rule!"
The people in the house were moved by each other when they heard it, but they had to say that Hun Sen's words made a lot of sense. If all the wealth of Chinese people were concentrated in the entire Nanyang, it would definitely be a very scary number, and it would be considered as rich in the world.
But as Hun Sen said, although these Chinese people have their own chambers of commerce to support, they have only supported each other in business, and there has been no political program and their own political demands.
As for Singapore, many Chinese people don’t know, but locals know that it is just a political game played by the Malaysian authorities and Lee Kuan Yew, which locked most Chinese people in Singapore and circled them to transform them.
At the same time, since Singapore accommodates most Chinese people, the population of Chinese people in Malaysia has dropped below 45%, and finally it became a minority in the parliament, so it could no longer compete with Malaysian locals in politics.
As for Lee Kuan Yew's second goblin as the prime minister of Singapore, he took it for granted that the Chinese in Singapore were Westernized. The Chinese in Singapore could no longer be called pure Chinese. Malaysia was having a very beautiful game back then. Although he gave Lee Kuan Yew's Temasek a place that was as big as a palm, it was undoubtedly more important than loss. Malaysians finally controlled the Chinese politically.
Similarly, as far as Sang Xiong and others know that even though the Chinese in Malaysia knew that this was a conspiracy, even though Chen Liuzhi was deprived of his citizenship by Lee Kuan Yew, he did not make any formal resistance. Naturally, nearly 10 million Chinese in Malaysia silently endured the oppression of Malaysian locals.
In fact, the Chinese did not have the courage to resist, nor did the Chinese in Southeast Asia not be so miserable today. The three people present showed complicated shame on Li Jia, but the other three agreed.
"But what makes us very ashamed is that such a group of people who are so obedient are massacred by us every once in a while. No one in power has ever taken advantage of it. For example, the policies used by Lee Kuan Yew now are a good way. Unfortunately, we have lost the best time!"
Hun Sen looked sad. When he said this, he seemed to feel unspeakable regret, and he couldn't help but clench his fists on the table with hatred.
"Foreign Minister, what you mean is..."
Sang Xiong didn't understand. It should be a good thing that Hun Sen said that Chinese people are so easy to manage, but why did Hun Sen seem to be indescribable and he asked in surprise.
"Don't you understand yet? I tell you that once the Chinese people unite to put forward their political demands and have the idea of putting them to facts, that is the most terrifying thing!"
Hun Sen shook his head, sat down sadly and said in great pain: "Maybe it wouldn't be there before, but the love style now may be different. The biggest reason why Chinese people cannot pose a threat is that they do not have a leader. Even Chen Liuzhang was not good at that time. He did not have that great appeal, but what if it was China..."
Speaking of this, Hun Sen's voice became quiet unconsciously, but his words washed the entire room like a burst of ice, causing the three generals in the room to feel cold all over.
"Foreign Minister, are you saying...what is the young man with the surname Wen Chinese for this...this matter?"
Ai Qiang finally understood what Hun Sen was saying? At that moment, his face turned pale. The Chinese in Cambodia have always been a big trouble for them, but for the sake of interests, they have always regarded the Chinese as the target of exploitation and constantly oppressing and exploiting them. That is to see that they will not resist as long as they have a bite of food.
But...what if someone comes to organize and call them to resist? Ordinary people may not have this power, but if it is the Chinese government?! And they have a division of troops stationed in Phnom Penh. Even if they do this, they are still fearless. Once the forces of these two sides are combined, it is really a nightmare in Cambodia. Ai Qiang was not shocked when he thought about it.
"Although it's unlikely that now, one thing is certain that these Chinese people will definitely ask him for help and ask us to return their property. Do you think the Chinese director in Southeast Asia will agree?"
Hun Sen let out a long sigh, finally calmed down, and then looked at Ai Qiang indifferently and asked.
"This... I think Chinese politics may not be willing to interfere in our internal affairs. Didn't they once talk about the five non-interference principle internationally?"
Ai Qiang swallowed with some difficulty, and then guessed carefully, but he didn't even believe in this reason. You must know that China's politics now has an absolute advantage and can be said to be very kind to Cambodia. This requirement is reasonable, and Cambodia's politics really cannot refuse it.
"Haha, actually, General Ai Qiang's words are still very reasonable. If the Chinese in China had passed away five years ago, before the death of the past five years, this might have done what you said. Even if the Chinese in Southeast Asia were massacred again, they would at most have protested a few words!"
Hun Sen couldn't help laughing, but there was no smile on his face. Finally, he said coldly: "But now that person is dead, those five principles are just a slogan. Look at the entire Nanyang and even the whole world, whoever hears these five nonsense is all about strength. No matter how many truths you say, it is useless. If the current Chinese politics is really like you said, they will not interfere in Vietnam's internal affairs. But have you seen Vietnam now? The military base in Cam Ran Bay is the best proof."
"Do you know? I also talked to Director Wen. Although I have not agreed to his conditions, I can definitely see that he is different from all the Chinese officials we have met before. He is really considering it for the sake of the Chinese in Cambodia and has also given me a final time limit!"
"You can imagine that if this Chinese official encouraged and supported them behind their backs, what would these Chinese people do and how would we deal with it? We... we really don't have much time..."
When I think of China, I can't help but think of two important Chinese figures in Cambodia. However, General Gao, Hun Sen, always felt that it was a cover. Wen Feng was the real key figure. However, when I thought of Wen Feng's last words, Hun Sen felt a little excited. Wen Feng's last warning look actually represents an ultimatum. How should he choose if he is one quarter of Chinese descent...
