"Father!" King Rama VI pulled the coffin.
The first chapter of this novel--Posting site> Click&~ for: Tadu Novel App
In the early morning, King Rama VI received the news that an assassin had been encountered in the palace and King Rama V was seriously injured, and he hurried back in a car.
Although it had been two days since the start, the large force, which had not yet completed mechanization, had only traveled more than fifty kilometers.
In just two hours, King Rama VI arrived at the palace. King Rama V had already changed his clothes and decorated the mourning hall.
"Who is the murderer?" King Rama VI looked at the people around him.
The Prime Minister and ministers cannot be at the palace early in the morning.
Nobles...it would be nice to get up this morning.
Finally, the focus was on the garrison commander and internal affairs officer.
"The assassins left twenty-six corpses, and no survivors were found. We cannot yet determine who the assassins are." The garrison commander said tremblingly.
This was originally a matter for the Guards, but the Guards were taken away by the prince, and the blame fell into his hands.
"You should take a rest." King Rama VI suppressed his anger and turned to the internal affairs officer.

It was claimed that he was only seriously injured.
"Announce it! The Guards are returning to the defense, declaring martial law in Bangkok, and strictly investigating suspicious elements. In addition, Minister of Foreign Affairs, talk to the Americans..." Rama VI still believed that this matter must be related to Nanhua.
Moreover, in the planning of his nation-state, the Thai people must set up a target. Other ethnic groups are too small to allow the Thai people to empathize. The Chinese are the best choice.
They are rich, and most people hate the rich.
He was hard-working and got a lot of jobs.
Being kind to others is seen as cowardice.
Most importantly, King Rama VI believed that Nanhua, which was a Chinese country like the Qing Empire, did not dare to risk the disapproval of the world and do anything to an independent nation-state.

Three days later, a piece of news shocked the British.
"Are Americans crazy? Just wait for the situation to change and don't interfere for the time being." Belfort looked confused.

"Special Envoy Kara, has the sincerity and goodwill of the Nanhua Empire been exchanged for deception?" Lin Anmin threw the newly promulgated policy of King Rama VI in the face of the Thai envoy.
"Describing the Chinese as Jews is blatant discrimination and even unfair treatment according to the law! Our Emperor will not understand, and neither will our Imperial Army!" Lin Anmin clapped his hands on the table and stood up.
"Mr. Minister, this must be a misunderstanding, and your country is still suspected of the assassination of our king. I think this is why His Majesty the King promulgated the new law." The special envoy said helplessly.
His role as special envoy is too difficult. At first, his mission was to ease conflicts and increase exchanges. Later, he became a special envoy for bilateral negotiations, and then became a special envoy for international negotiations. Now... he has become an orphan.
"No matter what, the Nanhua Empire will not allow such a thing to happen. This is a warning! I hope your country will consider it carefully!" He said this, but Lin Anmin just stared at Kara.
"This may take time. His Majesty Rama VI is still in grief. I hope you understand..." Kara saluted Lin Anmin.
Button button...
There was a knock on the door, "Come in!" Lin Anmin looked at Kara without looking back, his eyes fierce.
"Thailand has officially issued the Chinese Exclusion Act. The government has been disappointed with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is seeking a solution by force." The secretary said it at Lin Anmin's signal.

"Is it your Majesty?" Lin Anmin was not surprised.
"It's the Prime Minister." The secretary shook his head.
Lin Anmin took a breath and adjusted his clothes: "Mr. Special Envoy Kara, you can leave now. Just a reminder, you'd better find the embassy of a third country first, because the Thai embassy is about to close."
"Mr. Minister, there is a misunderstanding here. We are all civilized countries, and things are easy to discuss, easy to discuss..." Carla wanted to hold Lin Anmin away, but was stopped by the secretary.
Lin Anmin left without looking back.

“In 1890 AD, in order to fight for the legitimate rights and interests of the Chinese, we rose up to resist. So far, we have experienced five major and minor wars, thousands of major and minor battles, and tens of thousands of people have paid the price with their lives.
Today, a barbaric country openly issued a Chinese Exclusion Act!" Xu Hui looked at the people in the parliament.
"We used diplomatic channels, but unfortunately, the diplomatic channels failed. On November 14, that is, today, Thailand's immigration law officially came into effect.
This is a trample on the Nanhua regime! This is a trample on the dignity of the nation!

"The following is an emergency vote on whether to authorize the government to take all actions against Thailand." Zhang Wentao came out to preside over the meeting after Xu Hui finished speaking.
Some people find it uncomfortable to follow procedures, but it has to be said that sometimes procedures are the means to ensure fairness - except for some corruption, which uses procedures as an excuse for procrastination.
"The vote was passed unanimously. The proposal is handed over to His Majesty. Please wait a moment." Zhang Wentao looked at the statistics table and raised her high.
Within two minutes, Secretary Wang came up with documents.
"Your Majesty signed and agreed, and the proposal was approved." Secretary Wang held up the document.
"From now on, Nanhua has entered a state of war, and power has returned to the government..." Zhang Wentao announced.

"It's rare to see you so passionate. I thought you had become a pure politician." Liu Yiming smiled at Xu Hui.
Liu Yiming originally sent troops directly to exert pressure, but the Americans began to intervene. The warships of the two countries faced off outside the Bay of Bangkok. When Liu Yiming was preparing to increase troops and force the Americans to make concessions, Xu Hui hoped to solve the problem through negotiations.

At that time, Xu Hui told Liu Yiming the importance of peace through statistics.
"This year's steel output is expected to be 2 million tons and iron 3.2 million tons, surpassing Russia and France, ranking fourth. Industrial manufactured products rank third, agricultural output ranks fourth, and output value ranks second.
It is expected to manufacture more than 800,000 cars and 140,000 tractors, ranking first in the world in output, twice that of the second-place United States.
The tonnage of merchant ships is 260,000 tons, and the tonnage of warships is 60,000 tons, ranking fifth..."
"The average growth rate of heavy industry in four years is 14, the chemical industry is 17, and agriculture is 21. The total economic volume has grown steadily at a rate of 16 per year." Xu Hui does not want to go to war. If this continues, it will surpass Britain and catch up with the United States in a few years.
The automobile industry is developing wildly. It is the fourth largest steel producer in the world. The automobile industry consumes 21% of Nanhua's steel, 47% of its iron, 24% of its rubber, and a large amount of oil.
More than half of these cars are used for export.
(Consumption of steel does not mean converting steel directly into cars, but consumption in the industrial chain, excluding new machine manufacturing.)
In terms of heavy industry, South China became a big country after Britain and Germany;
Agriculture is also second only to Tsarist Russia and the United States;

Nanhua's chemical industry ranks first in output value, scale, and technical level.
Peaceful development is what Nanhua needs, and Xu Hui is worried that Nanhua will fall into the quagmire of the Boer War.
After all, this battle is a long-range raid on an independent country, which is different from colonizing Arabia.
"Thailand has hit the bottom line. The basic human rights of the Chinese cannot be guaranteed. What is the purpose of our development, or even the purpose of our founding?" Xu Hui shook his head.
"When are you going to declare war? How will the United States solve it? Thailand's forces are complex. Once the war starts, I will cut through the mess quickly." Liu Yiming nodded.
In any case, the original slogan of Nan Hua was to resist the oppression and wanton massacre of the Dutch colonialists. Thailand's approach was very different from that of the Netherlands.
"Give me the ultimatum now, I don't care what happens after that.
But you should keep an eye on it, occupying Thailand will not be of much use to us, so don’t lose more than you gain." Xu Hui thought for a while and said.
"I know it would be much easier if we didn't occupy it, but I will want a few military bases." Liu Yiming nodded.
Occupation represents investment. The original purpose of Nanhua is just the market. The location is important? Nanhua cannot be contaminated too much.

Once Thailand is occupied, it will pose a substantial threat to British India. Maybe Britain will reconcile with Germany and rush over to invade South China.
Liu Yiming was sure to stop Britain, but he would kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, but Britain was the best at pulling his teammates together.
