Part 4 The Journey Chapter 186 Nanyang New Deal (6)

He jumped out after him and answered: "I see, this Lan Fang is fine, it is not clear in the year of Nanxing, before a new government that meets our requirements, it will not work without military management, right?" ”

Liu Bailiang glanced at him obliquely, nodded proudly, and said: "The purpose of military management is to make the new regime function as soon as possible, and save the manpower and material resources that the empire must pay to directly rule these regions, the current empire is not short of resources, but lacks the productivity to convert resources into manufactured products, there is no need and it is impossible to emulate the small Japan of that time and space!" Please keep this in mind: our primary purpose in attacking the South Seas is not to plunder resources, and we can't live without them. That's not true! The march into the South Seas was to prevent our enemies from exploiting the resources of the South Seas, to gain a springboard to India and Australia, and to leave a way out for the empire to retreat from the new post-war world order. ”

"A way out?" Zhang Yaoqian narrowed his eyes.

"For example, in the event of the defeat of the Combined Fleet and the loss of sea supremacy for a while, we can also rely on the liberated national regimes of Southeast Asia to resist on land and buy time for the defense of our homeland. In this era of great popularization of the nation-state ideology, it is the right way to guard the Nanyang soil with Nanyang people and Nanyang people to govern Nanyang people! Like the little Japan of that time and space, swallowing it when it is said, the army and navy share the spoils, playing with its new territory, and only when it is about to be defeated does it pretend to give others autonomy, who will return the bird to you, guerrilla warfare of guerrilla warfare, anyway, come over together and beat the water dogs - can this be learned? ”

Defense Secretary Hooke, who had been holding his arms and squinting in his seat, suddenly opened his eyes: "The royal road, liberation, of course, is to restore the old land and the old country as much as possible, but it is really difficult to recover it after the passage of time." It is also necessary to help build an autonomous regime according to the local situation, which is precisely the original intention of the empire to set up the Nanyang Military and Political Headquarters. There is no need to argue and reinterpret such an established policy, right? ”

The elder spoke, Zhang Yaoqian suddenly lost his momentum, looked at Liu Bailiang unwillingly, and saw that Liu Bailiang had no reaction, so he had no choice but to start a round: "I don't mean anything else, I just want to confirm the attitude of the cabinet......"

Hu Kehu frowned and did not relent: "Who is the prime minister who leads the cabinet?" The meaning of the cabinet is the meaning of the military department, what else is there to confirm? That's it. ”

Zhang Yaoqian couldn't take off his underwear as a white flag. Shrunk back in disgrace.

Zhang Zhigao looked at Hook gratefully, and saw that His Excellency the Minister of National Defense, who was intimidating Fang Caihu, suddenly changed back to the appearance of a half-asleep sick cat, and couldn't help but smile in his heart.

"Lan Fang, Nanxing, it's all right, below, continue." Liu Bailiang's face was expressionless.

Zhang Zhigao still held his notebook and gestured eloquently: "When it comes to Sumatra, Java, and Sulawesi islands further south, it is necessary to review history. It's too old, not to mention before the invasion of European colonizers. At the beginning of the 16th century, a series of Islamic kingdoms arose in the East Indies. Sumatra has Aceh, West Java has Banten, East Java has Matalan, Sulawesi is expected to be Kassar, Borneo has Brunei, Sukartana, and a bunch of small countries on the Nusa Tenggara and Maluku archipelagos. The 16th century was the time of great discoveries in Europe, first by the Portuguese, then by the Spaniards, but with small fights and small strongholds. By the end of the 16th century, the Dutch had begun an organized and planned invasion of the East Indies for the Indian Company, first in gunboats. Then they occupied a few small islands as strongholds, and then conquered, slaughtered, and subdued, the old colonizers. By the end of the 17th century, he finally conquered Banten and Matalan, the most important of the archipelago. ”

"By the end of the 18th century, after the dissolution of the East India Company, the area under the control of the original company was directly under the jurisdiction of the governor sent by the king~|, and was divided into six provinces and regions: West Java, Central Java, East Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan, and the Eastern Islands, and the Yogyakarta and Solo regions (princely states) in Central Java remained as semi-autonomous protectorates. At this time, in addition to Borneo Ground Lanfang, there was also Sumatra's Aceh was not conquered by the Dutch, Aceh was located at the entrance to the Indian Ocean side of the Strait of Malacca, the geographical location was important, and the Dutch did not start for the time being due to the British land, but in 1871, Britain and the Netherlands signed the "Sumatra Treaty" ~ let go of the invasion. The war lasted from 1873 to 1881, when the Dutch colonial government declared the end of the Aceh War, but in fact the Dutch army only controlled the main lines of communication, and the massive resistance lasted until the capture of the Aceh Sultan, and the scattered guerrilla warfare continued even until our army advanced into northern Sumatra......"

"The War of Resistance that has persisted for more than 40 years is worthy of admiration." The empress rarely interjected with an exclamation.

"There are also many people in the historiography of that time and space who believe that this war should have ended in the year, that is, before the Japanese invaded Indonesia." Zhang Zhigao scratched his head.

The Empress let out a cooperative "oh".

"Because since 1903 the guerrilla struggle in Aceh ~ has maintained a state of military occupation of Aceh. And until the Dutch withdrew from Indonesia in 1942, Asia never officially became part of its Dutch East Indies colony, which meant that it was in a different system from South Sumatra and Java, which had established formal colonial institutions. ”

"Military state." The Empress added.

Yes, it is worth mentioning that in 1945 Japan was unable to continue to control the East Indies, and the Dutch government agreed to the independence of Indonesia, including Java, Sumatra and South Kalimantan, but the Indonesian side was not satisfied, but demanded the succession of the entire Dutch East Indies, including Aceh, The Hague Conference in 1949: From a legal and moral point of view, the Kingdom of Aceh was incorporated into the Republic of Indonesia without officially becoming a Dutch colony, and the Acehnese were naturally unwilling. Since the 50s, the Acehnese people have been constantly fighting for independence, and in the 70s, the 'Free Aceh Movement' was formed, and the armed uprising was sent to suppress it, and then it was talked about fighting, all the way into the 21st century, according to the year of the six, almost a century and a half have passed, and the Acehnese are still fighting for independence! ”
