Chapter 966
The reason why Yan Shao said this is because this time the Nationalist government has helped Thailand and Iran, not only military, economic and industrial, but also has certain social reforms.
After all, after becoming China's allies, the more stable the political foundation of these two countries, the more beneficial it will be for China. If two countries that are politically unstable and are about to riot once every three or five times are co-opted, then Yan Shaoke will be exhausted to death.
Therefore, in addition to the military, economic and industrial aspects, the national government will also provide some assistance to Thailand and Iran in other aspects. This is also clearly written in the treaty, but ...
"After all, the situation in Thailand and Iran is very different from our country, especially in terms of the political system, Thailand is well aware that it has just moved to a constitutional monarchy, but even so, the Thai royal family still has great rights, plus Thailand itself is also a country that believes in Buddhism, and from a certain point of view, it can even be called a semi-religious country, which is very different from our country."
"As for Iran, the situation is more complicated, in addition to being a monarchy, it is also a religious country, and religion has a great influence in this country."
"So, many things that seem to be normal in our country have become absolutely unusable in these two countries."
The reason why Yan Shao said this was because of the experience of later generations.
In later generations, there will always be many countries that want to donate their advanced democratic experience to other countries. It's a pity that almost all of them failed. Even those who succeed are basically not democratic successes, but dictatorships and successes that make these countries somewhat embarrassed, and then move on to the path of democracy.
Typical examples of these are Taiwan and South Korea.
It's just that the former has been relying on democracy since then, so after Yan Shao's period, he was basically half-dead. The latter is a little weirder. Especially in terms of the political system, so the mix is not bad.
As for some other areas, they have been deceived and lame for one reason or another. And at least for twenty years. It seems that there is no hope in sight.
The main reason for this is because of the lack of adaptation to the soil and water. All the more because they don't have the conditions to do so.
And Thailand and Iran are very different from China. What can be done in China may not be feasible in these two countriesββββββ if it is enforced, then after touching the taboos of these two countries, it will inevitably encounter a backlash.
Of course, Yan Shao or the Nationalist government can also ignore this resistance and continue to enforce it, anyway, these two countries now want to China, and even if they want to resist. There is also a big gap between their strength and China.
But after all, Yan Shao came to form an alliance rather than an enmity, so it became very important to consider the other party's feelings.
Isn't one of the very important factors why China was able to kill all sides in later generations is that when China does business with other countries, it usually does not consider the position of the other country, or when it provides assistance, it also asks the other party to make a lot of changes, but just talks about business?
As for what kind of government the other party is, this has nothing to do with China, as long as it is beneficial to China in the future.
Naturally, this has attracted criticism from many Western countries, but this is just a kind of sentiment that can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour. And for this set of China. Whether those countries are welcoming or not can only be seen from the growth of China's trade in these regions.
Of course, there are some exceptions. For example, countries in Latin America that have bad brains.
However, if these countries were smart, they would not have been able to degenerate from a large country to an developing countryββββββ and this kind of example seems to have only occurred in Latin America?

Regarding the requirement to respect the other party, Yan Shao had already mentioned it, so Li Liangzhi was not surprised. Although because he did not have the experience of later generations like Yan Shao, the strength was not very clear why Yan Shao had to ask for it again and again, but Li Liang did not intend to go against Yan Shao's request, so he naturally nodded.
"Don't worry, I'll tell you to go down..."
Heard Li Liang say this. Yan Shao also nodded reassuringly, but soon seemed to remember something. He frowned slightly, and then asked. "Yes. When I say that, I mean it, and at the same time ask them to absolutely respect the Thais and Iranians, and not to take them lightly..."
After all, Yan Shao is also a person from the past, so he naturally knows very well that in the face of countries like Thailand and Iran, it is easy for those who sent over to help have a sense of superiority. Although there is nothing wrong with this sense of superiority, and it is true that China is far stronger than Thailand or Iran at the moment, it is easy for Thailand or Iran to feel a kind of antipathy towards China.
If it was the United States in later generations, then of course there would be no problem, after all, the United States at that time was already the strongest country in the world. Although there are some challengers, these challengers are not necessarily easy to deal with even for those countries that follow the United States.
At the same time, in some weak and small countries in later generations, the best choice is undoubtedly to side with the Americans.
But now it is different, and China today is not as powerful as the United States in the future. Therefore, when dealing with their allies, they need to use their sincerityββββββ at least, before China becomes the most powerful country in the world, and the China League becomes the most powerful alliance in the world...
As for why Yan Shao emphasized that this was his own order, Yan Shao was very confident in his prestige. If it was only ordered by the government, maybe those who ran to help would not have taken it to heart, but if it was Yan Shao's own order, it would be like a holy decree for many people, and naturally there would be no need to worry about causing trouble.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
glanced at Yan Shao with some confusion, Li Liang was a little unclear as to why Yan Shao would say such an extra sentence. It's as if he doesn't know why Yan Shao values Iran and Thailand so much. After all, Yan Shao's prestige in China has reached a terrifying level, if Yan Shao really said this, at least in China, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to disobey Yan Shao's orders, especially in the army where Yan Shao has the greatest influence.
However, Li Liangdao didn't say much, but nodded and said he understood.
And on the other hand. Yan Shao actually has another purpose, that is, 'buying bones with a thousand dollars'.
Today's China Alliance is only in the embryonic stage, and there will definitely be many countries watching this alliance at this time. Whether those gazes are curious or benign or malicious. But at least one thing is certain, and that is that they want to know what kind of alliance this alliance is. At the same time, how does China behave in its treatment of these allies?
In these eyes, it is very likely that there will be so many interested countries.
At this time, if China despises its allies extremely, if it is not done well, it will scare the countries that originally wanted to join this alliance, so even if it is 'a thousand dollars to buy bones', Yan Shao must let the people below be better, so that other countries may join this alliance. Make this alliance stronger.
There is no way, the reason why some countries want to join this alliance is entirely because the alliance itself has a rule, that is, if the countries in the alliance are invaded by countries outside the alliance. Then the alliance itself is obliged to help the country fight back. When the time comes, it will naturally be China as a country that will take the lead. As the leader of the alliance, China has an obligation to protect the countries within the alliance.
This is very attractive for countries where bullying is a regular occurrence.
After that, as this alliance grows stronger, as the leader of this alliance, China will also have more and more influence, and eventually reach an unimaginable level.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Just as Yan Shao expected. Those who traveled by car to Thailand to deliver aid, even those members of the officer corps who had been living in Thailand for some time, looked at the Thais around them. Although he is quite enthusiastic on the surface, he is still a little contemptuous in his heart.
After all, Thailand was a weak country during this period, and it was normal for weak countries to be despised ββββββ at least in this era.
Didn't the European and American powers in history, as well as Japan, once despise China because of its weakness?
In the United States, there is even a humiliating bill like the Chinese Exclusion Act, and the reason for this is simply because China is so weak.
Now that China is strong and Thailand and Iran are weak, it is natural for these Chinese to despise them because of this habit.
on this. The Iranians and Thais, of course, are not unaware, but at this time they still need the Chinese. There are also requests with China. In addition, China is far more powerful than Iran and Thailand, so even if you are annoyed. They can only maintain calm on the surface, and make a look of nothing, and some even make a flattering appearance when facing the Chinese officer corps.
If this continues, perhaps Iran and Thailand will really become great powers with the help of China, but it is really difficult to say how much favor these people who have been trained by China's officer corps will have a good opinion of China.
But then, with the arrival of Yan Shao's order, the attitude of these people changed dramatically.
Just as Li Liang thought, Yan Shao's prestige in the country is indeed very great, especially in the army, many people are no longer obedient to Yan Shao's words, but oracles...
Therefore, after receiving Yan Shao's order, these people immediately changed their original attitude towards Thailand or Iranians, and became much more enthusiastic and sincere. Although the originally contemptuous gaze could not disappear in a short period of time, it was at least much stronger than the original.
Of course, like Li Liang, they can't understand why Yan Shao values Iran or Thailand so much. After all, in their opinion, these two countries really have nothing to count on. But for these people who worship Yan Shao as a god, what Yan Shao said is completely correct, and even if they can't understand it, it's because their wisdom has not yet reached the same level as Yan Shao.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
As Yan Shao's order was conveyed, the attitudes of those members of the officer corps soon changed. Naturally, this overnight change is somewhat surprising or miraculous to Thais or Iranians. After all, it's almost like a face-change.
Some time ago, these people were still cold, but now they have become kind. It's amazing!
However, both ordinary Thais and the top of the Thai government are very happy about this situation. After all, no one likes to look at people's faces. In particular, the Thai top brass is naturally extremely concerned about the reorganization plan, so of course they are also aware of the attitude of those officer corps.
In this regard, it cannot be said that the Thai government does not have the slightest antipathy, but there is no way to do it for the time being, not to mention that this dissatisfaction has not accumulated to a single degree.
Perhaps because of the change in the attitude of the officer corps, even the reorganized Thai troops have become much more enthusiastic when facing the officer corps. Even the very clumsy Thai soldiers, who used to be very clumsy, have become much more cooperative. This also makes the reorganization plan extra smooth.
Again, perhaps because of this change, many Thai soldiers have become willing to get close to these lieutenants. After all, after no contempt in the past, these lieutenants are still very kindββββββ you know, in China there is no such class concept that Thailand or Iran generally has, and it is also because of this relationship, so these officers used to treat them with complete contempt, but now their attitude has changed, and they even make those Thai soldiers feel closer than Thai officers.
At the same time, it is not surprising that these Thai soldiers are more willing to talk to these officers from China. Although Thailand is also a country. But in Thailand, there are a lot of Chinese people, so Mandarin is not a very foreign thing.
Of course. It is also because of this relationship that there are often some anti-Chinese incidents in Thailand in historyββββββ at least in the original history, even in modern times.
This may seem strange, given that to many people, Thailand seems to be relatively close to China, and the Chinese exclusion in Thailand does not seem to be very close. At least the possibility of the Philippines or India or other Southeast Asian students excluding China seems to be greater, but in fact, there are indeed many cases of Thai students excluding China.
Especially during this period, there was a kind of restrictive atmosphere for the Chinese.
Of course, with the rise of the national government. This situation is completely impossible. After all, China has become extremely powerful today, and Thailand should do just that. It is almost equivalent to slapping the national government in the face in front of everyone, and even the Thais will not be afraid of the revenge of the national government.
It's not just Thailand. The same is true for other countries. For example, Indonesia colonized by the Dutch, or Malaysia by the British. Historically, the British were okay, but the Indonesian areas colonized by the Dutch were extremely cruel to the Chinese.
But now, with the strength of China, the Dutch rarely encourage the local natives to kill the Chinese. It's not just about not agitating, it's even about restricting it.
This is so simply because of the warnings given by the British. According to the British, if the Dutch continue to encourage the aborigines to massacre the local Chinese, then if the national government uses the topic to wave ββββββββ although the Chinese are not necessarily Chinese, the overseas Chinese are!
At that time, even if only one overseas Chinese dies, there will be an excuse for China to retaliate at that time.
And if it was really because of this relationship that China sent troops, even the British government had no reason to help the Netherlands. By that time, the Netherlands itself would obviously not be able to resist the attack of the Chinese!
As a result, the living conditions of the Chinese in Southeast Asia suddenly became much better, after all, no one wants to attract the wrath of China because of such things. Especially when China has made it clear that it will not study before the Qing Dynasty and will definitely ensure the interests of overseas Chinese.

"Sir," a Thai soldier whispered to a lieutenant officer in Mandarin, who was not very fluent.
"What's the matter?!" It was the time when the officer had just finished training and was resting in the dense forest with a large group of Thai officers and soldiers. Although it is true that in the past these officers were somewhat contemptuous of the Thais, but now they are not, which is why this officer looks a little casual, just resting against a tree.
"Sir..."Maybe it's because of the change in the attitude of the Zhongguan group during this time, so these people have become a little bolder than before." Since we formed this alliance mainly to get rid of the bullying of the British and French, it must be that the greater the strength of the alliance, the better, right..."
"That's right!" The officer nodded. "That's true, since it is to fight against Britain and France, of course, the greater the strength of the alliance, the better..."
"In that caseβ" Hearing the officer's answer, the soldier asked with some confusion while gaining courage. Why didn't our alliance ask the Japanese to join in? (To be continued)
