Chapter 1094: Indochinese Guerrillas
France abandoned the colony of Indochina, and the Kingdom of Annam, Khmer, and Nanzhang were established. Then these three kingdoms joined the vassal system of the Chinese Empire, and the emperor of the Chinese Empire concurrently served as the king of these three countries. The progress of all this is dizzying. In the end, the Chinese Empire emerged as the biggest winner. The French lost one of their richest colonies, while the Chinese Empire had three more vassal states. No matter how you look at it, the Chinese Empire has taken advantage of it.
Countries around the world also know that this time the French were pitted by the Chinese. In fact, everyone knows this, but there is no evidence to prove it. Even if there is evidence, it is useless now. This world is meant to be a success. The Chinese Empire has already won this game.
In addition, the whole of Nanyang has now become the sphere of influence of the Chinese Empire, except for the Philippine colony of the United States and the Burma colony of the United Kingdom. Either it became the territory of the Chinese Empire directly, or it was a vassal state of the Chinese Empire. Countries around the world have even begun to speculate about exactly when the Chinese Empire will take action against the Philippines and Burma. After all, with the greed of the Chinese Empire, it would certainly not let go of these two colonies.
Britain and the United States also began to strengthen their military forces in the Burma colonies and the Philippine colonies to counter the threat of the Chinese Empire. Of course, they are overthinking. For a short time, the Chinese Empire had no ambitions to move Burma and the Philippines. After all, both colonies were very important to both Britain and the United States. If the Chinese Empire were to take action against the two colonies, it would inevitably trigger a new round of war. At that time, the Chinese Empire would have to fight against Britain and the United States on its own. Even countries that had enmity with the Chinese Empire, such as France and Soviet Russia, would join in. This is definitely not a good thing for the Chinese Empire. Even so, with the strength of the Chinese Empire, it was not afraid of Britain and the United States joining forces. However, this would have cost the Chinese Empire dearly before it could win the war. In this case, it is very uneconomical.
Moreover, the Chinese Empire completed another round of expansion in a very short period of time, and the combined population of the Kingdom of Siam, Annam, Khmer, and Nanzhang in Indochina exceeded 30 million. This is already a large market. The Chinese Empire needs to digest this territory before looking for a new round of expansion opportunities. However, Emperor Wu Haoxuan knew that the next time he wanted to expand on a large scale, he might have to wait until the next world war broke out. At that time, the Chinese Empire will set off a wave of large-scale outward expansion, and the surrounding wildly exaggerated. The colonies of the Western powers in Asia and Oceania will be taken over by the Chinese Empire one by one.
The kingdoms of Annam, Khmer, and Nam Palm became vassal states of the Chinese Empire, and the Emperor of the Chinese Empire became their kings. For most of the people in these three countries, they are supportive. For them, becoming a vassal state of the Chinese Empire means that they have a strong backing, and their security should be guaranteed, and they will no longer have to worry about being invaded and colonized by Western powers. In addition, when the whole world was hit by the economic crisis, the vast market formed by the entire Chinese empire and its vassal states withstood the economic crisis and rose against the market, developing very rapidly. These three countries will certainly benefit from their inclusion in this market. Thirdly, the Chinese emperor is the most powerful man in the world, and he is a deified figure in the whole of China and all the vassal states. The Chinese emperor was able to serve as their king at the same time, which was a blessing for them in three lifetimes!
Of course, not everyone is happy about this, and there are still a small number of people who are hostile and dissatisfied with this. The border between the Kingdom of Annam, the Kingdom of Khmer and the Kingdom of Nanzhang is a deep mountain and old forest. The primeval jungle here is dense and sparsely populated. However, deep in the dense forest, there are camps everywhere. These camps were all camps of Indochinese guerrillas. These guerrillas, although they all have vegetables, appear to be somewhat malnourished. However, each of them seemed energetic and scrappy. There is no doubt that although the conditions are a little more difficult. However, armed with Bolshevik ideas, they were able to overcome these external conditions.
In the center of the camp, in a simple wooden hut, a bearded Nguyen Ai Ao was angrily lecturing the guerrilla leaders. Behind him, sat two bearded foreigners who had been sent by the Bolshevik International to support Nguyen Ai Patriot.
"Comrades, the ambitions of the Chinese empire have been exposed. They have annexed a large area of waste land north of the Ma River, which our ancestors had worked so hard to acquire, and now they have been occupied so easily by the Chinese, which is simply a traitor. The government of the Kingdom of Annam, headed by Pan Peizhu and Pan Zhouzhen, is simply a traitorous government. The Khmer Kingdom and the Nam Cheung Kingdom were also puppet governments controlled by Chinese imperialism. The goal of the Chinese is to swallow up the whole of Indochina and then enslave us. We must not sit idly by and watch the Chinese's plot succeed, we must rise up against them, defeat their plot, and achieve Allah's independence in Indochina. Nguyen Aiguo preached angrily.
The leaders of the Indochinese guerrillas below listened attentively one by one. When they heard that the Chinese Empire had occupied a large amount of land north of the Ma River, their eyes were full of anger.
"Down with Chinese imperialism and overthrow the puppet regime." A young man yelled angrily.
Many of the leaders of the Indochinese guerrillas were young people. Although they did not have formal military training and education, they accumulated a lot of experience in actual combat, and they achieved good results in many battles with the French. Although the overall strength of the Indochinese guerrillas is not strong, if they are allowed to develop, it will inevitably shake the rule of the empire here.
"Everyone, be quiet, according to the latest information we have received, Chinese imperialism is desperately arming the kingdoms of Annam, Khmer and Namzhang. They supplied the three puppets with a large number of weapons and sent a lot of instructors. According to intelligence, the Kingdom of Annam will build ten infantry divisions with the support of the Chinese, the Kingdom of Khmer will build two infantry divisions, and the Kingdom of Nanzhang will establish one infantry division. This brings the total number of troops under the control of the three puppet regimes to nearly 250,000 men, and they are much better equipped than we are. Therefore, once they have completed their reorganization and training, they will definitely send troops to encircle us. When the time comes, it will be very difficult for us to defeat them. Therefore, we must take this opportunity to strike first and take the initiative to attack those puppet regimes, disrupt their steps, and further strengthen in the battle. Only then will we have a chance to win the final victory. Nguyen Aiguo continued.
When he saw these young leaders of the guerrillas, all of them had a look of eagerness in their eyes. They didn't want to hide in the mountains for a long time, and wanted to fight outside. If you can win the battle, life will be much better.
"Let's all go back and prepare, and in three days, we'll attack. This time, we must teach those lackeys of Chinese imperialism a hard lesson. Nguyen Aiguo ordered. ,
"Yes, Comrade Commander." All the partisan leaders replied, and then got up and left.
"Comrade Advisor, the current situation is very unfavorable for us! The Chinese will not watch us grow stronger. I'm afraid they'll send troops directly against us. When the time comes, it will be very difficult for us to persevere. Ruan Aiguo said with a worried face. Now he no longer has the confidence on his face that he had before. The previous expression was completely pretended. After all, he was the commander of the Indochinese guerrillas, and if even he despaired, it would inevitably affect morale.
"The Chinese will not send troops easily. They had previously recognized internationally that they had nothing to do with the Indochinese Resistance Army. If they send troops at this time, they will inevitably slap themselves in the face, and even make the capitalist powers such as France, Britain and the United States very unhappy," said a Russian adviser named Yakov.
"That's right, the Chinese will not send troops directly, and providing weapons and equipment and instructors to those puppet governments is already their limit." The armies of those puppet governments, even if they take the weapons of the Chinese, cannot be used, they are completely paper tigers without fighting spirit, and we can easily defeat them. As long as we can unify the whole of Indochina, we will have enough strength to confront the Chinese. Another adviser named Ivanov also said confidently.
It's just that they seem to think that all this is too simple.
Ruan Aiguo nodded, although he subconsciously thought that things might not be so simple. However, there is no other way for him now. The Chinese Empire had divided Indochina into three states, and he desperately wanted to reunite them. It would be great if he could become the leader of this country.
At present, the Indochinese guerrillas have only more than 10,000 people, and in terms of strength, they cannot be compared with an infantry division of the Kingdom of Annam and other countries. There is a big gap in weapons and equipment, and the weapons and equipment they use are all captured from the previous colonial army, and they are basically old equipment before World War I. However, their will to fight is strong, which is stronger than the armies of countries such as the Kingdom of Annam. (To be continued.) )
