Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Shen Wanqing said on the side: "More importantly: We are completely famous because you, a member of the Siamese royal family, personally planned and participated in this assassination. All countries in the world will think that this assassination is the Siamese government. It was your father who instigated it behind the scenes, and it is reasonable for us to attack you!"

Lin Yuan took over the conversation and said, "At that time, you will be the chief culprit for the downfall of Siam and the sinner for the downfall of the Bangkok dynasty!"

Lin Yuan and Shen Wanqing sang together, and the little princess was stunned. After a while, the little princess cried "Wow", and said while crying: "Why is this happening? I didn't want to cause a big war..." The princess was crying so hard that she couldn't speak, Lin Yuan sighed softly and said, "Okay, don't cry, we won't attack Siam rashly."

The little princess was still crying, so Lin Yuan said to his subordinates: "Take her down first, treat her well, don't wrong her, and ask her about her princess title when she stops crying."

Lin Yuan's subordinates took the princess down, and then they left the security office with Shen Wanqing. On the way, Shen Wanqing sighed and said, "What's wrong with this child now? Why is it so annoying?"

Lin Yuan said thoughtfully: "I seem to have guessed what Charlton said about the big plan."

Shen Wanqing hurriedly asked: "Does the plan Charlton mentioned have anything to do with this unreliable Siamese princess? Could it be that her assassination was planned by the British?"

Lin Yuan said: "No, the assassination planned by the British cannot be so unreliable. I think this matter is...how should I put it? The prelude to a symphony."

Shen Wanqing smiled and said, "I don't understand when you say that, what does the prelude to the symphony mean?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "I can't tell now. When we get back to the office, I will take out a map and explain it to you in detail." After a while, the two returned to the office. Lin Yuan took out a map and said: "Look, this is a map of the Indochina Peninsula. There are five countries on it. The westernmost is Myanmar, the east is Thailand, which is Siam in this era, and the east is Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam."

"Let's not talk about Myanmar, let's just talk about the four countries of Siam, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. Among them, Siam and Vietnam used to be regional hegemons in history. Laos and Cambodia are relatively weak. Although they have been relatively strong, they have Not mainstream. A few decades ago, both Laos and Cambodia were vassal states of Siam, and later the French entered the Indochina Peninsula.”

"The French first entered Vietnam and established a governor in Vietnam. In 1863, France proposed to Siam: to turn Cambodia, a vassal state of Siam, into a protectorate of France. The French-Cambodian Treaty recognized France's right to protect Cambodia, and France officially made Cambodia its own colony."

"Then France occupied Vietnam in an all-round way. In the process of occupying Vietnam, it also fought a war with the Qing government, that is, the Sino-French war from 1883 to 1885. In this war, although the Qing government won Victory, but because of the corruption and incompetence of the Qing government, the victory on the battlefield did not extend to the negotiating table, the Qing government and France signed the "China-France Treaty on Vietnam", Vietnam officially became independent, and China lost its suzerain status."

"After the signing of the "Vietnam Treaty between China and France", France established the Indochina Federation with Vietnam as its core and Cambodia. In 1893, France forced Siam to surrender its suzerainty over Laos, and Laos also Pulled into this Indochina Federation, the Siamese princess also mentioned this matter just now."

"So, Siam is very dissatisfied with France. Let's talk about the country of Siam. In our era, it is the only country in Southeast Asia that has not become a colony. King Chulalong has made great contributions to this, but Siam Not becoming a colony is not because of how strong they are, but the result of the game between the interests of Britain and France."

"Chulalongkorn is a king who is close to the West. His father, Rama IV Mongku, hired him as a tutor from England. Therefore, Chulalongkorn has been influenced by Western culture since he was a child. Later, he traveled to the UK, and now he sent his daughter to study in the UK, so Chulalongkorn has a good impression of the UK. Siam’s economic and military advisers are all British, and the British also have huge interests in Siam. .”

Shen Wanqing finally asked after hearing this: "You have said so much, what exactly do you want to say? Is it related to the prelude of that symphony?"

Lin Yuan said: "The reason why I talk about this period of history is to talk about the feud between Siam and France. Britain will definitely use this feud to incite sentiment against France in Siam. France is an ally of China, so it is against France At the same time, it also opposed China, so that the Siamese people are full of hatred for China. I think the next step of Charlton's plan is to incite Siam to attack the French Indochina Federation. Have you thought about the danger of this matter? ?”

Shen Wanqing was taken aback, and asked: "What's so dangerous about this matter?" Then she smiled: "I think we can sell weapons to both sides at the same time, and make a lot of war money."

Lin Yuan smiled helplessly, and said: "Siam will attack French Indochina under the guise of liberating Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, and there will be full support from the British. At that time, China will be pushed to a In an extremely embarrassing position, if we help France, we are helping imperialist countries to carry out national oppression, and if we break our words in front of the people of the world, the people of the world will lose their trust in China.”

"If we don't help France, but help oppressed countries such as Vietnam, then we will lose our allies on the European continent, and we will lose an important springboard to attack Europe in the future. Once the war between Siam and France starts, the Indochina Peninsula will There are seven countries wrestling: China, France, Great Britain, Siam, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam."

"Of these seven countries, France wants to do whatever it takes to keep its colonies; Britain wants to grab French colonies and embarrass China; Siam wants to recover Laos and Cambodia; Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam want to get rid of their colonies our fate; although China is in a difficult situation, but because of its strong national strength, it has a certain advantage, whether we can have the last laugh depends on the operation of my subordinates."

Shen Wanqing asked: "Then how do you plan to operate?"

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "There are many specific operation methods and they are very complicated. They can't be finished in a short while. Do you want to listen? If you want to hear, I can tell you one by one."

Shen Wanqing nodded repeatedly, just as Lin Yuan was about to speak, suddenly a servant ran over and said, "Report to Commander Lin, it's not good, something happened."
