Chapter 319: Grab millet from the fire and turn the clouds and rain

At the Hawaiian Palace, President Dore of the Republic was awakened by the rumbling guns. After leaving the door in his clothes, he saw Lauren, the commander of the Honolulu Rifle Team, walked over with a worried look on his face.

Dole woke up immediately.

"Mr. President, some ***ists attacked the Queen's residence, and the police who went to suppress were actually repelled. I ask you to approve the army to suppress."

Lauren himself hadn't figured out what was going on, thinking that it was the *** rioters who were in trouble and did not expect how serious the situation was.

"Laurent, how many ***ists are there, who are they? What is their purpose?"

Dor asked with a frown, feeling that things were not that simple. Now that the United States and the West are fighting, they inevitably weakened their control over Hawaii. This happened immediately. It would not be convincing to say that the two had nothing to do with each other.

Lauren was asked by several Dole's questions, and was speechless. After thinking about it, he said: "From the size of the soldiers, they should be Asian, with about seven or eight hundred people. The purpose is not very clear, it may be to hold the original queen hostage."

Doer walked a few steps back and forth, and knew that things were not simple, he said quickly: "You send troops to calm the situation immediately. I will inform the staff of the US office. Once the situation cannot be controlled, we will ask the US government to send troops."

The Americans had more than a dozen speedboats in Pearl Harbor and more than 500 Marines. Dore believed that he had defeated any rebels.

Lauren, who had taken his life, personally led more than 2,000 soldiers to quickly surround the Queen's Apartment in Hawaii.

However, he thought he could suppress the riot soon, but he did not expect that as soon as the army arrived, he still had a firm foothold, the Zhong*** team commanded by Song Pinglan fought a beautiful counterattack.

"Oh, God, these are not ordinary rioters, they are all soldiers." Lauren finally saved his life from the battlefield under the cover of two subordinates and fled to the nearby house in panic.

Lauren sat on the ground with his eyes dissipated and didn't know what he was thinking.

"What should I do, Your Excellency?"

His subordinates asked with a sad face as they looked at the soldiers who fled in all directions.

"What else can I do? I will dispatch troops from other islands first, and tell the president about the situation here." Lauren, who came back to his senses, said with some frustration.

There are only 3,000 soldiers on the island of Hawaii, and the remaining ones are police. The police force has been beaten by Song Pinglan and others so much that even his mother is not recognized. The two thousand people in the army were defeated as soon as they came up. How could he not embarrass him?

He had no choice but to order soldiers from other islands to come and reinforce. Fortunately, the Chinese did not continue to advance and annihilate the enemy after repelling their attack, which made Lauren breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, the sun rises from the east in a common way, illuminating the sea with golden light.

A few dozen kilometers away from Hawaii Island, the North Sea Fleet with masts, guns and cannons was quietly staying on the calm sea. There were several transport ships among the cruisers, which were loaded with more than 5,000 soldiers.

On the flagship Dingyuan pier, Deng Shichang was behind his back with his hands and silently staring at the distance.

He was waiting for the news, and as soon as the news arrived, he could send troops to Hawaii immediately.

He was in a calm mood. He had already figured out the situation in Hawaii for a long time, so he had no worries.

As soon as the sky shone brightly in Beijing, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China sent a note to the embassies of various countries.

Seeing this note, the ministers from various countries had different expressions.

The Spanish minister was naturally ecstatic. The Chinese actually intervened in Hawaii because of the overseas Chinese. This move was not easy for the Spanish government to rain in time. At least the Chinese fleet entered Hawaii and was dangerous to reach the defense line along the Pacific coast of the United States, which could make the US government feel panic and dare not encircle and suppress the Spanish fleet with all its might.

German Minister Hai Jing sighed. The Imperial Navy has been suppressed by the British and cannot parade back and forth in the Atlantic Ocean like the Chinese, and attack in time. I hope that the Empire can gain some benefits in the Philippines this time and then gain a firm foothold in the Far East.

Of course, if he knew that his Majesty had quietly contacted Ye Zhikui and was preparing to divide the Philippines, he would not know what he would think about.

American Minister Tian Xiali was furious and furious, but he was helpless. The situation he was most reluctant to see was inevitable. He had no choice but to pass the news back to China in time.

After notifying the ministers of various countries, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs held an urgent press conference.

As the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Wu Tingfang presided over the reception for the first time.

"Dear Chinese and foreign journalists, here, I will first mourn the Chinese and overseas Chinese who died in Hawaii!" Wu Tingfang said solemnly and solemnly.

Just a few short words made the reporters below excited because the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would not be aimless. Since Hawaii was mentioned, there would definitely be other major events.

Then, Wu Tingfang made a systematic explanation of the many assassinations of Chinese people that have occurred in Hawaii in the past few months.

Wu Tingfang became more and more excited as he spoke, and finally stood up and said: "It is precisely because of the inaction of the Hawaiian government that more and more Chinese and overseas Chinese were killed in Hawaii, and it has reached a point where our government cannot tolerate it."

"Then," Wu Tingfang paused and continued to say excitedly: "Since the Hawaiian government cannot ensure the safety of our lives and property, we will protect it with our own ability. Therefore, the Government of the Republic of China decided to send the North Sea Fleet to Hawaii to ensure the safety of our lives and property, until the situation in Hawaii stabilizes."

Wu Tingfang's statement was like a bombshell, which made the reporters dizzy.

A Chinese reporter raised his hand and stood up and said, "Hello, I am a reporter from the Asia Times. May I ask the Foreign Minister, it is the first time that the government of the Republic of China has sent warships to protect the expatriates. Will there be a convention in the future?"

Wu Tingfang nodded and said solemnly: "Overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese are inseparable members of our Chinese nation. If there is a *** action against our Chinese in their country, the government will send troops to protect without hesitation."

Wu Tingfang's answer won cheers from the Chinese journalists present.

A French journalist raised his hand indignantly and asked: "Dear Mr. Wu, is your government too hegemonic?"

Wu Tingfang stared at him and continued: "This French friend, life is equal. Since the Americans can send warships to Havana to protect their expatriates, our government has the same power."

In this era, I don’t know how many Western powers pursued the strategy of occupying other countries’ territories on the grounds of protecting the lives of their own citizens. However, on the surface, everyone pretended to be gentlemanly and gentlemanly, and Wu Tingfang was not afraid of the French reporter breaking apart and exposing the hypocritical side of the powers.

Sure enough, when the French reporter heard that Wu Tingfang took the US government as an example, he only sat down with reluctance.

The American journalists here looked very bad. Those American journalists in China did not come to China with special missions. They all had several identities and had a very thorough understanding of China's dispatch of troops to Hawaii.

One of the American journalists stood up and asked: "Mr. Wu, your government is making a big fuss and sending troops to Hawaii will only cause greater chaos and more harm. Your government will only put the entire Hawaii in danger."

Wu Tingfang replied without a pause: "What this reporter friend said is very bad. My team is disciplined and will do everything good to stabilize the situation in Hawaii."

...

On the Dingyuan, the first mate Jiang Renhui helped to walk to Deng Shichang and said excitedly: "It's time to take action, it's time to take action."

"Is that true?" Deng Shichang turned around and said, "I didn't expect time to pass so quickly. I sent my order and the whole ship set out to Pearl Harbor."

The reason why we did not go to Honolulu Port first but to Pearl Harbor first is because the Americans had several speedboats in Pearl Harbor. The purpose of the North Sea Fleet was to suppress the Americans and prevent other islands from increasing troops to the Great Island of Hawaii.

An hour later, the lookout hand on the American speedboat cruising outside Pearl Harbor suddenly screamed.

"Oh my God, that's it, which country's fleet is actually heading towards Pearl Harbor. Hurry up, call the police." The lookout hand shouted in panic.

"It won't be the Spanish fleet, it's a Spanish fleet, we'll be done." Another sailor said in a frightened and terrified guess.

"Impossible, the Spaniards are wandering around the Atlantic Ocean to avoid our fleet. How could they come to the Pacific?"

The fleet slowly approached, and the lookout hand finally saw the military flag on it. He breathed a little relieved and showed a rare smile and said, "It seems to be the Chinese fleet."

In the past one or two years, with Ye Zhikui coming to power, Sino-US trade exchanges have been frequent, and there is no big conflict of interests between China and the United States, so the relationship is still acceptable.

The soldiers of course thought the Chinese fleet would not do anything to them.

In fact, Deng Shichang really won't do anything to them, he just let the fleet live in Pearl Harbor.

When he learned the news, Navy Colonel Laikel of the American Speedboat Team hurriedly boarded the boat and came to negotiate.

Due to the Spanish-American War, only a dozen Americans in Hawaii maintained order symbolically at sea.

After Laker boarded the Dingyuan, he frowned and said, "The soldiers didn't know, but he didn't know yet?" The Chinese people would not eat enough and had nothing to do to come to this island. They were not kind to come.

"Dear Deng, is there any purpose for you to lead the fleet here?" Lecher naturally knew Deng Shichang, who was famous in the naval world, and asked tentatively when he came.

Deng Shichang also learned about Laikel's identity from others and said seriously: "Col. Laikel, I received news that violent incidents against us Chinese and overseas Chinese have occurred in the Republic of Hawaii. Therefore, I was ordered to come here to protect all Chinese and overseas Chinese on the island."

Laikel asked again: "Then I wonder why the general wants to *** our Pearl Harbor?"

Deng Shichang said with a smile: "In order to avoid misunderstandings and accidental injuries, I have to lead the fleet here to see you first."

The ghostly accidental injury, Laikel secretly complained in his heart, but he had no choice but to do anything about this. Fortunately, General Deng, who was slaughtering ships in front, had no intention of annihilation of his speedboat brigade, at least his life was saved. As for the rest, it would be better to leave it to the US president for a headache.

Laikel said a few more hypocritical words, then hurriedly turned around and left, intending to report the matter to the US government.

Pearl Harbor is a military port with no merchant ships coming and going, while Honolulu Port is a civilian port. Merchant ships from various countries are frequent and hot. When Deng Shichang left several warships to monitor the Americans, he led the remaining warships to appear here.

The arrival of the Chinese fleet obviously caused panic. The sound of gunfire on the island was still ringing, and warships appeared in the port, and there was still a peaceful place there.

Although cargo ships and merchant ships from various countries are not afraid of Chinese fleets attacking them, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, they are still preparing to evacuate this uneasy place first.

However, Deng Shichang didn't want the news to spread so quickly. At least he had to wait until he had completely controlled the situation on the island of Hawaii before he could let them go.

With a command, a loud bang and artillery fire fell on the sea where the freighter had to leave the port, stirring up water columns. This was a warning. If anyone did not listen to the warning, it would not fall on the sea next time, but on the ship.

"Start login and meet with Song Pinglan's tribe on the island as soon as possible." Deng Shichang said lightly.

"Yes, take care of it!" the Marine Corps general responded.

In the Queen's residence, Song Pinglan once again repelled another attack from the Hawaiian Republic team and the police.

In fact, these armies cannot be blamed for their low combat power. The army of the Republic of Hawaii is actually composed of a group of mercenaries. They only do their jobs for money and will sell their lives there. However, the Chinese team, as the defensive side, is different. Once they are broken through the defense line, they will have to die.

The fire of cannons transmitted from the port made Song Pinglan extremely happy. The stone pressed on his heart was also put down. He knew that this must have been the arrival of the North Sea Fleet.

Now he needs a title.

Song Pinglan gave up command to Liu Yongfu, but hurried to find the queen with several personal soldiers.

Gunshots rang outside for a night, and Queen Liliukalani did not sleep all night, and Chen Afang and Tang Tingzhi kept chatting with her.

When Song Pinglan walked in, Chen Afang and others were already full of excitement. Seeing this still energetic man, Chen Afang and others would be blessed as long as they sighed that they were young.

Song Pinglan's face did not change at all. She saluted the queen first, and then said: "Queen, the restoration of the Kingdom of Hawaii is imminent, and I need a legal identity to continue to help you."

Chen Afang, Tang Tingzhi and a small number of soldiers who came early have already joined the Hawaiian nationality, but Song Pinglan, Liu Yongfu and others who arrived late have not joined. As long as they have joined the Hawaiian nationality, this matter can turn this matter into Hawaii's internal affairs.

Once the Queen ascended the throne, she could issue a statement saying that she asked the Chinese government for help, and that the North Sea Fleet would appear here. In short, the Americans should have nothing to say on the surface.

The queen took out a large seal from under the bed, spread the paper and wrote, "General Song, in the name of the Queen of Hawaii, I allow you to become Hawaiian nationality, and at the same time canonize you as the Grand Duke of the Kingdom of Hawaii, appoint you as the marshal of the Kingdom of Hawaii, and command the soldiers of the Kingdom of Hawaii."

Song Pinglan solemnly took the Fengshu and said seriously: "Thank you, Your Excellency Queen. Song promised with his own reputation that he would be able to protect the Queen's safety and re-assert the Queen."
