In a conference living room in the office building of the Tangshan Military Commission in Nanjing, several people were sitting scattered at this time. There were Navy Minister General Cheng Biguang, Army Education Director General Wu Shi, Army General Lan Tianwei, Army Chief of Staff General Lan Tianwei, all of whom are second only to Chang Ruiqing in the National Defense Forces.

The ones sitting together were a few short and dark-skinned soldiers, and they were all South-East Asian soldiers. These were all wearing white naval uniforms. Golden tassels were hung on their shoulders and exquisitely decorated Western sabers were carried on their waists. But these military uniforms that looked quite frightening and sabers, combined with their small figures and faces that were as intimidating as dough, were really ridiculous. Well, they also gave people a feeling of being bullied!

In fact, these Southeast Asians did come from a country with no combat effectiveness - the Kingdom of Siam. A middle-aged man in his thirties and chubby middle-aged man in his thirties was the younger brother of King Rama VI of Siam, Admiral Prince Bripa, the Minister of the Siam. He visited China as the special envoy of Rama VI, with the purpose of ease the current tense relationship between the two countries, and at the same time, he also tested the possibility of Siam joining the "Triple-Non-Aggression Treaty".

Speaking of Siam, it has actually been quite good since modern times. It was originally a semi-colonial country, and it was only one step away from dividing the country. However, in the second half of the 19th century, this country has produced three wise monarchs, Rama IV, Rama VI, and Rama VI. Among them, Rama V, who was known as the Great Emperor, implemented the Chulalongkorn reform, which lasted for 37 years, and developed a semi-colonial country on the verge of destruction into a wealthy but not strong capitalist weak country. However, considering that Siam's population is only about tens of millions, it is not easy to maintain its majestic status and gradually abolish some unequal treaties.

After Rama V's son Rama VI ascended the throne, Siam's reform began to shift from a rich country to a strong army. As soon as Vachalon (Rama VI), who was an admiral (20-year-old general), ascended the throne, took the reform of the Siam army and the construction of a modern regular army as his goal. He established a paramilitary armed wild tiger team directly controlled by the royal family (the name sounds a bit like a bandit armed force), and developed the Siam Navy and formed an army flight team. By 1917, he followed the United States to declare war on Germany. He also sent troops to Europe to participate in the war. After Germany surrendered, he also rushed into German territory with the Allied Team, and participated in the victory parade held in Paris, London, Brussels and other places, which looked like a military power!

While Siam became a military power, Rama VI also set off the first wave of anti-Chinese in Siam history! A series of regulations that restrict the economic and political rights of Chinese people and restrict Chinese culture were introduced! In a certain time and space history, this level of anti-Chinese is nothing in Southeast Asia. Anyway, China is also a soft persimmon that can be bullied by individuals. But in this world, China, which was originally a sick cat, rose miraculously in just two or three years! It also defeated the powerful Soviet Red Army. Moreover, the diplomats of the Chinese National Government protested against the anti-Chinese bill of the Siam government not long ago - this way, Rama VI and his Siam court were a little panicked.

Although the current Siam is guaranteed by Britain and France, China is not bordered by Siam, and the Chinese navy is not strong. It should be unlikely to send troops to invade in the name of protecting the expatriates. But isn’t there any such thing as exporting the revolution? In 1912, the 1911 Revolution in China affected Siam. Some middle and lower-level officers of the Siam army organized a rebellion group "revolutionary group" and plotted to launch an armed coup to overthrow Rama VI to establish a republic! Although this secret was shattered in the early stage, who can guarantee that the second and third rebellion plots would not happen? Moreover, if a big country like China came forward to support the Siam rebels, the matter would be even more difficult to end - especially in Siam now, followers of left-ministerialism have appeared in Siam!

Therefore, Rama VI, who knew that his modern army was not very good, hurriedly sent his younger brother to Nanjing to worship the wharf to see if he could say something worthless to fool the Chinese dictator Chang Ruiqing, so as not to be unable to get along with the Bangkok Dynasty.

However, after coming to Nanjing for several days, Prince Bripa didn't even meet Chang Ruiqing! Today, he finally got a notice from the Chinese side, saying that he could meet Chang Ruiqing in the office building of the Military Commission. But now, the planned meeting time has passed long ago, and Chang Ruiqing has been reluctant to show up. Look at this attitude, this Chinese dictator is probably determined to find trouble for the Kingdom of Siam?

Just as Prince Bripa was thinking about everything, a roll call sound finally sounded outside the door: "Captain Standing Committee!" The soldiers in the room, including Prince Siam, stood up and turned their eyes to the door. Prince Bripa saw two giants walking in one after another. The straight Chinese Defense Force general uniform was shining with green light on his cheeks and his thick eyebrows were tightly furrowed. He looked like he looked fierce, and it was Chairman Chang Ruiqing!

The Minister of Navy Cheng Biguang was a little confused when he saw Chang Ruiqing's face. He looked so fierce and looked so fierce. He was frightened by his face all day long. What should he do if the Siamese children were scared? Thinking of this, he had to come with a smile to introduce to both parties. He spoke English - the Prince of Siam was from the UK, and Chang Ruiqing could speak fluent English, so he simply talked in English.

"Your Highness, this is the Chairman of the Standing Committee of our Military Commission. This is Prince Bripa, the Minister of Navy of Siam. He came to China this time to sign a non-aggression treaty with us."

Chang Ruiqing forced a little smile, shook hands with Prince Bripa, and sat down without saying a word. He didn't intend to show the Siamese people, but was worried about whether Germany would rise up in advance! He originally planned to cooperate with Germany to "save the world", but now he had to think carefully.

Seeing the big dictator with a fierce look in front of him, the Dwarf Prince was so furious that he was a little confused when he spoke.

"General Chang... I am coming to China on behalf of our country's King Rama VI to explain to you some of the policies currently implemented by Siam. Uh, these policies are not aimed at the Chinese, nor are they intended to prevent China, but to protect our Siam..."

Chang Ruiqing coughed, interrupted the stuttering Prince of Siam, and said coldly: "Our National Government of the Republic of China and the National Defense Forces of the Republic of China have an obligation to defend the legal rights of all Chinese citizens overseas! As for the overseas Chinese in Siam, we believe that they should have rights that are no less than those of British, French and Japanese citizens. If the Siam law that restricts Chinese nationality now applies to foreigners in Britain, France, Japan and other countries, we will not interfere! As for those Chinese who have already given up their Chinese nationality, we will regard them as Siam citizens in accordance with international law. You must limit the political and economic rights of certain Siam citizens. We cannot interfere. However, discriminating against Chinese expatriates is an infringement of Chinese interests, and China is now a powerful country!"

After hearing the statement of the fierce Chinese dictator in front of him, Prince Bripa of Siam felt a numbness in his scalp.

Anti-China or restriction of overseas Chinese and Chinese have always been part of the social and economic life of Nanyang! Although the economy and construction of Nanyang countries (colonies) cannot be separated from those smart and diligent Chinese. But because of these excellent qualities that Chinese people have, they can often quickly climb to the heads of the indigenous people of Nanyang countries and become the controller of the economic lifeline of Nanyang countries (colonies). If it weren’t for the anti-China movement every now and then, I’m afraid these Chinese people will become the real masters of the Nanyang region in a short time. Didn’t Marx say that the economic foundation determines the superstructure? So the policies of Western colonists in Nanyang are to make full use of the diligence of Chinese people to develop the economy, restrict their power to participate in politics, and on the other hand, they allow the indigenous people of Nanyang to launch violent anti-China from time to time!

However, the national conditions of Siam are different from those of Western colonies. The Chinese had much greater influence in Siam than other Southeast Asian regions. In the 18th century, the Thon Ribu Dynasty, founded by the Chinese Zheng Xin, appeared! Even the Rama royal family of the Bangkok dynasty now regarded themselves as Zheng Xin's descendants (in fact, they were likely usurpers), and each royal member had a Chinese name named Zheng.

Moreover, the Kingdom of Siam has always been surrounded by the great powers and has the possibility of a country destruction at any time. In this case, the Rama royal family, which ruled the country, must of course unite the Chinese, who are particularly important in the political and economic aspects of Siam, to the outside world. Therefore, before Rama VI ascended the throne, the Kingdom of Siam never had an anti-Chinese experience. Until recent years, after decades of hard work by Rama IV and Rama V kings, Siam's ** finally had a guarantee. Therefore, they could free up their hands to eliminate China or restrict the power of Chinese and overseas Chinese.

In the eyes of the Rama royal family, Siam indigenous powerful people, and even some Siamized Chinese officials, this restriction is also a necessary means to ensure their rule. If the Chinese political and economic power is allowed to continue to expand, it is really hard to say who will be the master of Siam in the future. Besides, the Rama royal family did not take any too violent and bloody means to prevent China, but only adopted some of the most moderate means to restrict assimilation! How could this Chinese dictator be so unreasonable? How could Siam ask the overseas Chinese to treat British, French and Japanese expatriates!

Who doesn’t know that the expatriates of these great powers are the real first-class people of Siam! If the overseas Chinese are like them, wouldn’t the Siam in the future really become the world of overseas Chinese?

But Prince Bripa didn't know how to reject Chang Ruiqing's request. The current world order is justified by who has the biggest fist! And China has already gained an equal position with Japan and the Soviet Union after the "Four Kingdoms War"! So why should their expatriates in Siam be inferior to the Japanese?

The conference room was silent, and Chang Ruiqing just looked calm and did not speak, looking angry. Prince Bripa didn't know how to refuse politely for a while. After a while, he said: "Mr. Chairman. Xiao Wang's purpose this time is indeed for the friendship between China and Siam. For the common interests of our Asian yellow nations. Now China, Japan and Siam are the only three remaining countries in Asia, struggling to survive in this world ruled by the Western powers. For the common interests of the Asian nations, what reason do we have to not unite as soon as possible? We Siam have always received great kindness and enthusiasm to China and Japan, especially to express our great wishes to your country's booming momentum... But our Siam nation also has its own national interests! Just like the policy of resisting the great powers you are now..."

Hearing this, Chang Ruiqing suddenly interrupted: "Wait a minute, Your Highness, your Highness, are you comparing our country's policy to the Kingdom of Siam with the aggression policy of Western powers? Do you regard the overseas Chinese in Siam as a Western colonizer? Are the overseas Chinese in Siam not the creator of social wealth, but a robber who plunders wealth? If that is the case, why did your previous kings of the Rama Dynasty attract Chinese people to participate in the construction and development of Siam? The economy of your Siam Kingdom can develop to this extent, which is probably inseparable from the hard work and sweat of the Chinese? Now that your economy has developed, you want to kick the Chinese away with one foot? What is the difference between you doing this and those Western colonists?"

His tone was a little gloomy. Prince Bripa lowered his head and said nothing. The Chinese Defense Forces' senior executives all over the room were muttering in their hearts. What was their Chairman of the Standing Committee? The Prince of Siam always came from afar? And it was indeed to make good use of China. Although their policy of restricting Chinese people was a bit bad, the Chinese in Nanyang had long learned to survive in various restrictions. Without the support of their motherland, wouldn't they develop well?

Besides, China seems to be unable to reach Siam now, right? If both sides really tear their faces apart, maybe they will adopt a more intense anti-China policy. At that time, the unlucky one will not be the overseas Chinese in Siam?

"Prince, if we really want to do something for the rejuvenation of the Asian nation, then we should first be honest with each other. This is the basis for the cooperation between China and Siam. What is the main threat facing you Siam at present? Are the British and French colonists who constantly force you to cede land and pay compensation, or the Chinese and Chinese who worked hard to build Siam and shed blood and sweat to defend Siam - if it weren't for the Chinese as Zheng Xin, your Siam Kingdom would have been destroyed for almost 150 years, right? Didn't your Rama royal family always claim to be descendants of Zheng Xin? From this point of view, His Highness the Prince is also a Chinese!"

Prince Bripa listened quietly without interrupting Chang Ruiqing's words. Chang Ruiqing seemed to be confident and his confidence in speaking was getting stronger and stronger: "How important Chinese are to you Siam, I think Your Highness knows more clearly than me, right? If your anti-Chinese policy now causes Siams and Chinese to be hostile to each other, and Siam and our China are hostile to each other, who will harm more? You know more than His Highness, right?"

"It will be a loss-win situation, and there will be no winner!" Prince Bripa retorted with a dark face.

Chang Ruiqing sneered and looked at the Prince of Siam with cold eyes: "Your Highness! The reason why you are Your Highness now is because the Kingdom of Siam is still there. Your Rama royal family has not yet perished! If you insist on the anti-China policy, which caused the unrest in Siam, and finally the British and French powers took advantage of the opportunity to destroy the country, will your prince still have it? Can you still think of the king of Rama VI?"

The Chinese Defense Army generals all over the room all understood Chang Ruiqing's strategy - he wanted to threaten the Rama royal family with both losses! If the Rama royal family did not change the existing anti-Chinese policy, Chang Ruiqing would be ready to incite the Chinese who supported Siam to fight against the Rama royal family. Even if they were finally suppressed by the Rama royal family, the vitality of the Siam Kingdom would inevitably be greatly damaged.

Although the ** of the Kingdom of Siam has been guaranteed by Britain and France, only God knows how valuable this guarantee is. If Siam really experiences violent civil strife and loses its ability to protect itself, how could Britain and France take the so-called guarantee seriously?

At that time, even if the Rama royal family can keep the crown, they will become a puppet of Western colonists! How can they have such power and status now? So in the struggle between Siam and China, the Rama royal family is the definite loser. If they do it well, they will lose everything! And Chang Ruiqing's status in China will not be shaken by the failure of his Siam policy! So this bet. The Rama royal family cannot afford to play!

The conference room was quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on Prince Bripa. These Siamese princes remained silent, as if there was a fierce ideological struggle in their hearts.

Chang Ruiqing continued to talk: "If your Rama royal family must regard the Chinese as a threat, it will be just a potential threat. And the threat from Britain and France to Siam is real. Don't think that Siam participated in the world war and shed a few drops of blood for Britain and France, they would give up their covetousness of Siam! The reason why Siam can maintain its highest status is mainly based on its own strength! If the strength is gone, the country will no longer be gone. This is an eternal truth... Now do you want to cooperate with our country and continue to strengthen the self-protection power of the Siam Kingdom, or you want to destroy the Great Wall by yourself, and then be willing to be a colony of Britain and France, please make a choice!"

Prince Bripa seemed to hear something from Chang Ruiqing's words, and his eyes suddenly lit up and said to Chang Ruiqing: "Did your Excellency the Chairman mean just that as long as Siam changes its policy to restrict Chinese people, China can help Siam build a strong army?"

"That's it!" Chang Ruiqing stood up, walked around the house for a few times, and said loudly: "From the map, Siam's position is at the forefront of the Asian yellow civilization against Western white civilization, and is still surrounded by British and French colonies! If Siam is destroyed, it will mean that the defense line of the Asian yellow civilization against Western white civilization suddenly retreats to South China and Taiwan... A powerful Siam kingdom will mean the beginning of our yellow civilization's counterattack against Western white civilization!

His Highness, as the leader of the world's largest yellow country, I am very willing to ensure the integrity of the territory and sovereignty of the Kingdom of Siam! What we two countries should sign is not a non-aggression treaty - without this treaty, we will not infringe on each other's territory, because our territory is not bordered at all. What we want to sign should be an alliance treaty! China will regard the infringement of the territorial sovereignty of the Kingdom of Siam as an infringement of its own territorial sovereignty!

At the same time, China can also provide military assistance to Siam to help Siam train and equip a modern army. In addition, China will also persuade Japan to provide the same guarantee to the Kingdom of Siam and help the Kingdom of Siam train and equip a modern navy! In this way, Siam will obtain the security guarantees provided by Asia's most powerful army country and Asia's most powerful naval country!

The premise of these security guarantees is to make the Chinese people believe that Siam is our true friend, not a lackey who helped the Western powers bully us Chinese."

As soon as the words came out, the crowd was stunned. What was the chairman thinking? After intimidating the Prince of Siam, he suddenly smashed a big cake and even talked to himself to involve Japan - is it really about to build an alliance of Asian yellow civilizations to oppose the West? Or is there any other purpose?

However, Prince Bripa of Siam twitched his head a few times, stood up and said to Chang Ruiqing: "Chairman, the conditions you have put forward are very attractive to us in Siam. However, the final decision is not in my hands. I will convey your kindness to His Majesty the King of our country as soon as possible, and suggest that His Majesty cooperate with China."
