In the Indochina colony, when it became known that France had sent 100,000 troops, the Indochinese resistance felt great pressure. Although, the strength of the Indochinese resistance army has also grown to 100,000 people. However, once they fought against the 100,000 regular troops of the French Army, their chances of victory would be very low. Therefore, they could only pin their hopes on the Chinese Empire, hoping that the Chinese Empire would help them withstand the French counterattack. It was also at this time that some of the hot-headed members of the Indochinese Resistance realized their weakness. Without the support of the Chinese Empire, they would have been nothing more than objects to be ravaged at will.

The rapid defeat of the French and the overthrow of French colonial rule by the Indochinese resistance forces made some of the leaders nervous that they could succeed without the support of the Chinese Empire. There are some opinions on the conditions that the Chinese Empire put forward at the beginning. After all, whether it was to become a vassal state of the Chinese Empire, or to cede a large amount of territory to the Chinese Empire, these conditions were slightly harsh.

But now, they are all honest. The Chinese Empire could easily make it difficult for the French to retreat. If they dare to repent, the Chinese Empire will definitely make them pay a heavy price. Therefore, only by accepting the facts and fulfilling the original promises can we have a good life.

Of course, not everyone can figure this out, and in the Indochina colonies, there were still people who opposed the Chinese Empire. For example, the Indochinese guerrillas led by Nguyen Ai Quoc took advantage of the defeat of the French by the Indochinese Resistance Army, and they also began to be active and grew larger and larger. With the support of Soviet Russia, the Indochinese guerrillas have now grown to tens of thousands. Their activity area is not limited to the deep mountains and old forests.

Saigon, the former seat of the Viceroyalty of French Indochina. Pan Peizhu and Pan Zhouzhen, as the leaders of the Indochinese Resistance Army, are now here to prepare for the future of the country. In the whole of Indochina, with the exception of Hanoi, which was to be ceded to the Chinese Empire in the north, only Saigon was suitable as the governor of the country.

However, at this time, a telegram from the Chinese Empire demanded that they immediately go to Yanjing to discuss the future establishment of Indochina. In addition, after the arrival of the French Foreign Minister, Aristide Briand, peace talks with the French were to be initiated so that the de jure question of the Indochina colony could be resolved. If the French could renounce the colony of Indochina, they would be able to establish a state in the name of it. Of course, even if the French refused to give up their colonies in Indochina, they would still be able to establish a state with the support of the Chinese Empire. However, it will be difficult for them to be recognized by the international community. At least, that's how the international community is now.

"Chief of Staff, clean up, we have to go to Yanjing." Pan Peizhu said after reading the telegram. It's just that there is not much joy in the expression on his face. It is true that after this trip to Yanjing, the country they have been waiting for so hard will be established. However, this time they will also sell out a lot of national interests. Moreover, they could not refuse the demands of the Chinese Empire. That's what they promised in the first place. Otherwise, the Chinese Empire would not have supported them so hard.

"Hmm." Pan Zhouzhen nodded. His mood was also a little heavy. This trip to China was not easy for them.

"Commander, now that Indochina has been taken by us, if we negotiate some conditions with the Chinese Empire at that time, will they accept it? In that case, we may also pay less. Pan Zhouzhen said.

"Chief of Staff, I advise you to give up this unrealistic idea at once. The Chinese Empire will never accede to our requests. If we dare to make such a request, then there is only one outcome, and that is to replace the leader of the Indochinese Resistance Army. Don't doubt it, with the strength of the Chinese Empire, it can do all this easily. Their influence in the Indochinese Resistance is even greater than ours. In addition, even if the resistance forces listen to us, if this angers the Chinese, they only need to send a small number of troops to invade Indochina, which is enough to crush us. Pan Peizhu said.

"Although, when the Chinese asked us to agree to those conditions, there was no lack of meaning to take advantage of the fire. But, for us, that's the best outcome. Without the support of the Chinese, if we want to drive out the French, I am afraid it will not be possible at all. Besides, the current Chinese Empire has developed into the world's largest power. Becoming a vassal state of the Chinese Empire is a good thing for us. Pan Peizhu said. He has now fully accepted this reality, or rather, completely accepted his fate. Since there is no way to resist the Chinese Empire, then there is only obedience. In this way, it may be able to bring them more benefits.

Pan Zhouzhen nodded: "Apart from us, who else will go to Yanjing this time?" ”

"And Onke'ou and Bachai, and Shiharu." Pan Peizhu said. The Indochinese Resistance Army was divided into three forces, mainly the Annamite, the Khmer and the Nanzhang. Phan Pei Zhu and Pan Zhou Zhen were mainly the leaders of the Annamite people, while Shiharu was the leader of the Khmer people, and Aung Ke Ou and Ba Chai were the leaders of the Nanzhang people. Among the three forces, the Annan people led by Pan Peizhu and Pan Zhouzhen are the most powerful. So, they became the leaders of the entire Indochinese Resistance Army.

"The Chinese summoned all three of us at the same time. It seems that a unified Indochina state is no longer possible. The Chinese will not allow it. Pan Zhouzhen said.

Pan Peizhu nodded: "If Indochina becomes a unified country, it will be a little more threatening to the Chinese Empire." Even if the Chinese Empire is the world's largest power, it will not allow a strong country to appear around it. ”

"Well, I don't know if it's right or wrong for us to do this!" Pan Zhouzhen sighed.

"Our strength is too weak, and in front of those powerful countries, we simply don't have the strength to resist. So, we simply don't have the slightest recourse other than appointments. Pan Peizhu saw it very clearly.

After receiving the telegram from the Chinese Empire, the leaders of all sides of the Indochinese Resistance Army hurried to the Chinese Empire. After arriving in China, they were sent directly to the air base. The Air Force's transport planes were responsible for transporting them to Yenching. This way, it's also faster. This also shocked those who had never made an airplane, and they were even more in awe of the Chinese Empire.

On May 25, the Yellow Emperor's era, several leaders of the Indochinese Resistance Army secretly arrived in Yanjing, and they were arranged in a base under the Military Intelligence Agency. Because, the Chinese empire has always claimed that it has not supported them. So, until an agreement is actually reached, it also needs to be kept secret.

In the evening of the same day, Imperial Prime Minister Yang Du, Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi, Chief of the General Staff Marshal Jiang Baili, and Director of the Military Intelligence Bureau Marshal Chen Xudong met with the leaders of the Indochinese Resistance Army. They need to agree on some conditions of the empire and these leaders. Then His Majesty the Emperor will receive them.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have come from afar, and you have worked hard." Imperial Prime Minister Yang Du said with a smile on his face.

"Prime Minister, ladies and gentlemen, you are so polite. The fact that the Chinese Empire was able to help us drive out the French was already a great kindness to us. Pan Peizhu looked grateful.

The same was true of several other leaders of the Indochinese Resistance Army. On the one hand, they were sincerely grateful to the Chinese Empire. On the other hand, it is also a reverence for the great power of the Chinese Empire.

"Now you have succeeded in driving out the French. Then, the next step is to build the country independently. The Chinese Empire will fully support you in this regard. The Chinese Empire suggested that you form three countries, namely the Kingdom of Annam, the Kingdom of Khmer and the Kingdom of Nanzhang. After the establishment of these three countries, they will all join the vassal system of the Chinese Empire and become vassal states of the Chinese Empire. You don't have any objection to that, do you? Yang Du asked pleasantly. However, the kind of strength he exuded made these leaders of the Indochinese Resistance Army not have the slightest courage to refute.

"Your Excellency, it is a blessing for all of us to be able to become a vassal state of the Chinese Empire, and we have no objection." said the leader of the resistance forces on the southern side, Ang Keou.

The other leaders all nodded their heads one after another.

"That's good. In addition, according to the original agreement, the part of the territory north of the Majiang River was to be returned to the Chinese Empire. You don't have anything to think about about this, do you? Yang Du asked again. The object of his questioning was Pan Peizhu and Pan Zhouzhen. After all, it now belongs to the Kingdom of Annam.

"Prime Minister, that territory, which originally belonged to the Chinese Empire, is now returned to the Chinese Empire, and that is a matter of course. Besides, without the support of the Chinese Empire, we would never have been able to defeat the French so easily. Therefore, I have no objections. Pan Peizhu said.

Pan Zhouzhen also hurriedly expressed his position and had no different opinions.

Of course, if they really dare to disagree, they may not be able to return to Indochina at all. The Chinese Empire could easily find an excuse to replace them from their current positions. Among the Indochinese resistance, there are many people who want to replace them. (To be continued.) )
