1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 2491
Whether it is tanks, aircraft, or new warships that have been launched for sea trials, they are not the weapons and equipment that the Haihan Army urgently needs at this stage. The research and development of these large-scale equipment has far exceeded the combat needs of the troops.But in the opinion of the executive committee, such advance progress is very necessary. After all, the traversers are getting old, and they need to try their best to leave more capital for the country that they built with their own hands.

In addition to an advanced system and a developed economy, a strong armed force is naturally indispensable.Although the current weapons and equipment are already ahead of this era, the Executive Committee knows that the existing weapons cannot conquer the world, and pre-research is the safest way.Even if the traversers left relevant information, if we want to leave these high-tech equipment to future generations to research and develop by themselves, it may take 80 or [-] years before there will be results.Doing more now can save generations of time and gain greater development advantages for future generations.

However, the breakthrough in ordnance technology is not the most influential event during the National Day.What really caused a shock internally and externally was the Haihan executive committee's announcement that Li Hao, the king of Bongrim, North Korea, who had lived in Sanya for a long time, was about to return home.

At the beginning, Li Hao came to Hainan Island in the name of a study tour, but after arriving here, Haihan left him for a long time in the name of studying abroad, which has a strong political meaning.Although the king of North Korea, Li Yi, was supported by Haehan, his performance after ascension to the throne did not completely satisfy Haehan. There are still some opinions in Korea that are wary of Haehan, and he has not done enough to cooperate with Haehan. To [-]%, it goes without saying that this is of course Li Yan's intention, unwilling to be completely reduced to Hai Han's tool.

Li Hao is Li Yan's younger brother and one of the main candidates eligible to inherit the throne.Although Li Yan has now sealed his eldest son as the prince's son, Haihan kept Li Hao on Hainan Island, which has the purpose of making him a backup candidate.

The Executive Committee believes that what Haihan needs is a North Korean state that fully obeys the arrangements. As a vassal state, it provides Haihan with unconditional resources and develops markets. Imposing control measures, and intensified such measures after Li Yi came to power, but Li Yi's small actions all the time made Haihan's measures not have the desired effect, which also drained the patience of the executive committee less and less.

However, Li Yi has been on the throne for more than ten years, and now the ruling situation in North Korea is relatively stable. If Haihan wants to directly overthrow Li Yi's rule, he cannot make a decision with one word, and will inevitably use a large number of troops, even Afterwards, it is necessary to station a large number of troops in North Korea to maintain social order, which is not cost-effective for Haihan.

The Executive Committee held several internal meetings for this purpose, and finally proposed a compromise solution, intending to send Fenglin Dajun Li Hao back to North Korea, but not to allow him to return to Seoul, but to place him in the north Pyongyang City, and intends to use the Datong River as the boundary to give Li Hao the power to govern the northern part of North Korea.

The purpose of this plan is not complicated. It is to divide North Korea into two, and divide the north and the south. In this way, North Korea's internal vigilance and hostility towards Haihan will be disintegrated, and the ruler's attention will be focused on domestic competitors. body.From now on, regardless of whether it is south or north, if you want to keep the power in your hands, you must hug Haihan's thigh tightly.

This solution can be described as quite vicious, and it is also based on North Korea's inability to resist Haihan.If Li Yan refuses to follow, it is very likely that Haihan will support Li Hao to ascend the throne, and North Korea will fall into a civil war.If Li Yan didn't want to lose his throne, he could only hold his nose and admit it.

When the North Korean diplomatic envoys in Sanya heard about this incident, they immediately sensed Haihan's intentions. Although they tried to persuade Haihan to give up such an approach, they still failed to impress the determined executive committee.After the National Day event, Haihan sent a fleet to escort Li Hao and his party back to North Korea.

Li Hao has been in Haihan for several years, much longer than Li Yan who went to Hainan Island to study for a year. He knows more about Haihan, and his thoughts are more deeply influenced by Haihan.In his view, the gap between North Korea and Haihan is far greater than the previous gap with Ming Dynasty. Since North Korea has chosen to join Haihan, it should follow the model of Haihan in all aspects to govern the country.

Li Hao even hopes to change the current power structure in North Korea and set up an institution similar to the Executive Committee to govern the country, and the king can completely give up part of his power and play the role of an organizer like Tao Donglai in this institution.

Of course, he also knew that such an idea would be difficult to realize, unless he could replace his elder brother, but that would mean another palace coup, and a large number of killings and social turmoil that would follow.North Korea has finally been peaceful for decades, and it really shouldn't fall into turmoil again.And he is also very clear about Haihan's real purpose for staying on Hainan Island. Once something happens in North Korea, he will most likely be pushed out as the successor to the throne. As for the first heir Wang Shizi , I am afraid that Hai Han will not pay attention to it at all.

Li Hao didn't know how long he would wait in Haihan, maybe he would never have the chance to return to his hometown in his whole life.In the past two years, he has gradually calmed down, and he plans to just be a rich and idle person in Haihan country. After all, as long as he stays in Haihan, it means that North Korea is safe and sound, which is not a bad situation.But this time Haihan made such an arrangement, it was really beyond his expectation. He didn't expect that the Haihan people planned to send him back to the country to become a prince, and also hand over the power of governing the region to himself.

Li Hao could think that Haihan made such an arrangement because he might not be satisfied with his elder brother's ruling, but since he still let his elder brother continue to be the king, it means that the situation has not deteriorated to the point of tearing his face apart, which makes him still have reservations about the domestic situation. glimmer of hope.

The official statement that Haihan gave him was that he hoped that he would bring back a more advanced governance model to North Korea. However, considering maintaining the political stability of North Korea, Haihan believed that it would be safer to set aside some areas in the north and hand them over to him for governance. That's why such a special arrangement was made.

Li Hao's belief in such a statement will not affect Haihan's implementation of this plan. All he can do is to do his best to do his job well, which may help the stability of North Korea.Moreover, Li Hao also has a faint expectation in his heart, to verify whether the skills he has learned in Haihan in the past few years are really useful. Maybe his ability in governing the country is actually better than his brother.
