Chapter 2891

For the Portuguese, Haihan is their most important partner in the East. The two sides not only have close exchanges in trade, but are also military allies who have signed formal agreements in black and white. When Portuguese armed ships are reported,

You can also sail into Haihan Port including Cam Ranh Port and berth.

Gabriel came forward to inquire about the military information of Cam Ranh Port from Sun Jian'an. Although the procedure was a bit informal, in terms of the relationship between the two countries, doing so was not too abrupt.

But although Sun Jian'an is young, he is also very shrewd. When he heard that Gabriel expanded the possible affected area to the South China Sea, he already understood what the other party was planning.

In the eyes of the Portuguese, Haihan's sphere of influence is around East Asia and the South China Sea, but if it goes beyond this geographical scope, then the relationship between the two parties is more than just a cooperative partner. In this era of global navigation, both parties are also competitors.

Gabriel's words were obviously to limit Haihan's influence to the South China Sea, in order to test whether Haihan would begin to seek a breakthrough in his sphere of influence.

Since Sun Jian'an was aware of the other party's intentions, he naturally would not answer the question directly, but responded tactfully: "Then let me reiterate to you that our country's military deployment and troop mobilization are all based on the needs of national security.

, not targeting any country.”

Gabriel felt suffocated when he heard this. The other person's words were vague and he just didn't respond directly.

"As far as I know, the troops recently transferred to Cam Ranh Port are the most powerful troops in your country. You won't tell me that this troops traveled thousands of miles to come here specifically for vacation, right?" Gabriel simply said

Instead of hiding it, he asked directly.

Sun Jian'an said: "I am in charge of the trade and shipping affairs of Cam Ranh Port. As for the arrangements of the military, that is beyond the scope of my jurisdiction. If you insist on clarifying this kind of issue, then I suggest you go to the garrison.

Command seeks answers."

Seeing that he could not be fooled, Sun Jian'an used the trick of kicking the ball, indicating that this was not a matter within his scope of authority. As for whether Gabriel could get words from the military, Sun Jian'an was not optimistic at all.

Gabriel actually didn't need to visit the garrison headquarters to know what kind of response he would get. He just listened to similar answers again. It seemed that he had responded, but there was no valuable information at all.

Gabriel left with a look of disappointment. But he was not the only visitor who was disappointed. He was followed closely by the Dutch who also came with the same smell and left disappointed.

The Annan people's approach was more direct. Ruan Wenxing did not come to visit Sun Jianan, but chose to take the upper-level route and asked to see Feng Annan.

What Ruan Wenxing wanted to know was actually the same thing as Westerners, that is why the Haihan Special Warfare Division was transferred to Cam Ranh Port from thousands of miles away.

"General Qian and the special operations division have come all the way. I believe this will not be just an ordinary deployment. If your country wants to take military operations in the South China Sea, I hope it will continue as usual and allow our country to have the opportunity to participate."

Nguyen Van Star's statement was much stronger than that of the Portuguese. After all, in terms of national relations, Annan and Haihan were much closer, and they had cooperated on many military missions in the past, so they were qualified to make such a request to Haihan.

The most important thing is that Ruan Wenxing knows that Feng Anan has an excellent relationship with the country's top officials, and the Ruan family also has a certain influence in the Haihan officialdom. Even if his demands are a little excessive, he will not anger Feng Anan.

Feng Annan was not surprised by Ruan Wenxing's request. Annan had always been very keen on expanding its sphere of influence. In the foreign wars of Haihan in the early years, Annan would basically send troops to participate in the action as long as Annan had the spare capacity to send troops.

Even when the Haihan Army entered Korea to fight against the Qing Dynasty in 1637, Annan State sent more than a thousand troops thousands of miles north to Korea to participate in the war.

It is precisely because of this enthusiasm that Annan has successively established a large number of foreign agencies throughout East Asia. Almost all large ports under Haihan's control will have Annan's exclusive terminals, as well as industries run by Annan merchants.

Although this layout cannot be compared with Haihan's colonial measures, it has indeed increased Annan's international influence a lot, especially the navigation industry has been greatly developed, and it has obtained considerable profits through overseas trade.

Of course Haihan understood that Annan was taking advantage of the situation to achieve disguised external expansion, but as long as Annan could honestly play the role of a slave state, Haihan would not hesitate to take Annan along for the ride.

However, Annan cannot always enjoy such treatment alone. In the past ten years, Annan has also gained a powerful competitor, and that is North Korea, which is also a servant of Haihan.

Both countries relied on the military assistance provided by Haehan to escape the danger of national annihilation, but their close relationship with Haehan was different. King Yi Zhen of North Korea went to study in Haehan when he was young, and was single-handedly supported by Haehan and ascended the throne.

, naturally everything follows Haihan’s arrangements.

Seventy-eight out of ten of the senior generals currently serving in North Korea are from the Haihan Military Academy. From the organization to the equipment, from the command system to the combat thinking, the army has copied the Haihan Army to a greater extent than the "Little Haihan Army".

The Annan New Army, known as the "Army".

In recent years, the Korean military has appeared more and more frequently in Haihan's military operations against the Manchus, Ming Dynasties, Japan and other countries. Although it has not yet extended its tentacles to the South China Sea, it seems to be only a matter of time.

.

However, Haihan has focused its development in the north in recent years, and is more inclined to maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea. This has also resulted in Annan's army not having many opportunities to perform overseas in recent years.

The sudden move of Qian Tiandun and the special operations division to the south is actually a sensitive military signal. In Haihan's military system, the garrison troops in various overseas regions rarely make large-scale defense changes. Like this, the entire Normal University

The situation of changing the location has never happened since the Haihan Army established a division-level organization.

Moreover, Qian Tiandun's troops have always been stationed in the north. The last time they were reorganized and moved south was nearly twenty years ago - after Qian Tiandun led his troops into the South China Sea, he immediately joined the battle of Haihan to attack Manila.

So no matter from which angle you look at it, the signal sent by Qian Tiandun and the special warfare division's entry into Cam Ranh Port this time is absolutely extraordinary. For Annan, who has been dormant for a long time, this may really be another demonstration of strength.

The opportunity has come.

Ruan Wenxing didn't know whether Haihan had communicated with Annan's senior management about this matter, but he had to seize the opportunity to learn as much as possible about the inside story of this matter to prevent Annan from missing a great opportunity.
