Dominate the Country

[The last day of 2016, the last update of 2016, next year is the beginning of a new year, I wish you all a happy new year, happy New Year's Day! ]

What is the feeling of "being in a cage for a long time, returning to nature"?

Li Kun, who had kept his mouth shut since he was carried out of the cell, had a tear slide down from the corner of his eye, the moment he was handed over to the Chinese Marine Corps. He knew he was safe!

Hamenggu Buwono II surrendered, surrendered in the face of huge fundamental losses, did not do anything, and obediently handed the person over to the Marine Corps.

Li Kun's life was no longer in any danger, his life was saved. Even though he is now a cripple!

Two months have passed, and many of the broken bones have healed. Li Kun did not have the courage to scrape the bones to heal the wound, and he did not know how to straighten the bones. After the broken bones were examined by the Tianfang doctor in the Yogyakarta Palace, they were found to be lame even if they healed. But at least his life was saved!

Ye Tingyang, who had been following the Marines, had a warm smile on his face. God really favored him, otherwise how could he be so lucky?

He hadn't asked yet, and the uncle of the emperor was sent to his side.

But he thought it was better not to speak at this time, and it would not be too late to wait until the uncle of the emperor calmed down.

After all, this gentleman had been imprisoned for so many days, and he had been holding on and not revealing his identity. To be honest, Ye Tingyang admired him very much and wanted to give him a thumbs up.

Then you can imagine what this gentleman felt at the moment.

The sudden disaster and the two-month-long suffering and torture, how much hatred he must have in his heart.

He is the real uncle of the emperor, how could he have suffered such a crime. Even if he worked hard among the people, he would have no worries about food and drink and was free. Ye Tingyang had never been in jail, but he had been in solitary confinement, which was a small dark room. Judging from his own experience, Ye Tingyang felt that now that the uncle of the state had destroyed Yogyakarta, he must be very eager to chop up the Sultan and feed him to the dogs.

"This... lord..." Li Kun finally opened his eyes, and then he saw Ye Tingyang, who was wearing the rank of general, and the friendly smile on Ye Tingyang's face.

"I dare not. Uncle of the state, please tell me if you have anything to do."

"Ah? You... already know?" Li Kun said in surprise, but his brain reacted quickly. He had thought about these things when he was in jail. He came in, and he still had his parents, wife and children. "Is it Qiongzhou?"

"Uncle of the state is wise." Ye Tingyang gave Li Kun a thumbs up in his heart. This smart brain reacted really quickly.

"My parents were not scared, right?" When his life was back in his control, Li Kun suddenly missed his parents. The latter is so old, how can he bear it if the old man sends the young man away? I'm afraid he has been very anxious these days.

Ye Tingyang personally brought a cup of ginseng tea to Li Kun, who was half sitting up, "This, I really don't know." How can the news be reported quickly when the country is thousands of miles away from Nanyang? Even the news that Li Xiaomei sent the eldest palace maid to Hainan to visit the seriously ill Li couple, Ye Tingyang didn't know at all.

Li Kun's inner emotions could not be completely calmed down for a long time. A person who regarded himself as a dead person was suddenly saved, and his identity was also recognized. This kind of information and joy is simply immeasurable.

Li Kun now wants to raise his voice and roar a few times. Thinking of turning into a bird flying in the sky, turning into a fish diving into the water, and swimming happily. He really longs for freedom!

But his legs and feet that have not yet healed and have even become deformed make him unable to walk and run normally.

Ye Tingyang could sense the sudden anger from Li Kun, the extremely gloomy anger...

He stepped back and gave Li Kun space to vent. Then until dinner in the evening, until Li Kun regained his true calm, he did not hear from the guards that there was a single sound from the military tent.

"General Ye, I wonder what kind of punishment the court will give Yogyakarta?" Li Kun had dinner and asked Ye Tingyang.

"Please rest assured, uncle. The court will not let Yogyakarta off easily. All those who took action that day will pay the price, one by one, and all will be handed over to us and beheaded. In addition, the Sultan of Yogyakarta himself will formally apologize for the incident and pay a huge compensation. In addition, there will be some bilateral military and political exchanges..."

The Sultan of Yogyakarta has a huge influence on Java Island. According to the previous plan, in this Surabaya incident, China is seeking more political and economic benefits. China must establish the advantage of the Chinese over the Dutch from the root.

Java Island is rich in resources. The strong volcanic eruptions in multiple phases have formed thick volcanic ash and eruption deposits on Java Island. Under the hot and humid tropical rainforest climate, physical weathering, chemical weathering and biological weathering are extremely strong, and the weathering layer produced is 20-30 meters thick and the soil is 5-10 meters thick. This special geological and geographical environment is very conducive to the growth of plants and crops, which is much better than the barren Borneo. It is really a year of four harvests, green everywhere, red all over the mountains, and fragrant all over the body. Coconut trees are in patches and rubber trees are lush. At the same time, this special geological and geographical environment has also nurtured unique mineral resources on the island: epithermal gold, silver, lead and zinc mineralization, Carlin gold mineralization, quartz vein gold and silver mineralization, porphyry copper, gold and molybdenum mineralization, coastal tin-titanium-chrome sand ore, laterite gold ore, etc.

The coal mines here are in the same vein as the coal resources in Borneo. Most of them are open-pit mines with good mining conditions and good coal quality.

If this land is handed over to the Chinese, mining, logging, planting...

The development progress of Java Island will far exceed that of the Netherlands now!

The entire Java Island is a fertile treasure trove, and Chen Han is really going to stab it!

"That is to say, the court wants to take advantage of this sudden incident in Surabaya and turn it into an opportunity to open a gap in Java?"

Li Kun understood.

"If the uncle thinks that the punishment of the Yogyakarta Sultan is too light, then there is no need to rush at this moment. Wait for a year or two before taking revenge..." Then it has nothing to do with the Chinese government, right?

And Ye Tingyang believes that in the future, this gentleman in front of him will have the support of the Queen, and he will be able to pull up a force to subvert the entire Yogyakarta in a blink of an eye.

Just like Prince Mankunlegalan.

Prince Mankunlegalan now lives near the Yogyakarta Palace, but he can also be called a sultan in his territory.

When Mataram had just split up, Yogyakarta and Solo had just established their foothold, the father of the current Prince Mankunlegaran rose up. Although he was eventually "suppressed" by the first Sultan of Yogyakarta, looking at the current Prince Mankunlegaran's lively appearance, you can know that it was definitely a conditional surrender.

If Li Kun had the queen as a backer and pulled up a real tiger skin, Ye Tingyang really didn't believe that Prince Mankunlegaran would not surrender?

"Now the court has severely damaged Yogyakarta. Whether it is Solo or Mankunlegaran, as long as they are slightly provoked, I don't believe they will not be tempted."

After the Mataram Sultanate was fragmented by the Dutch, the Dutch's rule in Java was greatly consolidated, but they still failed to really enter the heart of Java. One of the main reasons was the peace of Yogyakarta and Solo. This made the Dutch in history only evolve the natives bit by bit.

It was not until several decades later during the Napoleonic Wars that the Dutch in Batavia, who had lost their motherland, were seriously injured. Yogyakarta began to stir, and the British, who had just established themselves in Singapore, saw the opportunity and tore off a large piece of flesh and blood from Yogyakarta in one fell swoop - establishing a small hereditary principality of Pakualaman under Yogyakarta.

Chen Ming certainly didn't know the series of evolutions in Java in history, but he knew the current situation in Java. The Dutch had been playing tricks in the East Indies for two hundred years, and established cities and stable rule in the western coastal areas such as Batavia, but they really didn't penetrate into the heart of Java in the middle and eastern parts of Java.

The local indigenous nobles still controlled the power here.

The Dutch had only occupied cities like Surabaya for more than 30 years. The Dutch's control over the Yogyakarta nobles was still quite unreliable.

"General Ye, rest assured. I, Li Kun, am not a reckless man. A gentleman's revenge is never too late. I am only thirty years old, and there is still plenty of time."

Li Kun would not mindlessly insist on asking Ye Tingyang to avenge him. What is he now? The identity of the uncle of the king has not been determined yet. What is he?

Li Kun still needs to thoroughly establish his identity, and then he will have the power to gather more people and raise stronger forces.

Ye Tingyang laughed, "Where does it take ten years? The court is now eyeing Nanyang, and the Dutch rabbit tail will not be long." This is the most basic judgment of a senior naval commander on national policy.

The war between China and the Netherlands, including Spain, is not far away.

"By then, the Dutch will be gone, and Yogyakarta will be even more vulnerable. The uncle of the king can do whatever he wants to the Sultan! Even if he is locked up with a pig."

The entire Nanyang Navy is intentionally or unintentionally against Tianfang. This is a basic policy set by the court. The strong tradition of Tianfang here has already had an impact on China's future rule to a certain extent. Associating the local natives with pigs has become a common metaphor for the entire Nanyang Navy.

The dissipated hostility in Li Kun suddenly reappeared on him. Under the bright light, the twitching facial muscles made him look so hideous.

"I promise not to let the Sultan of Yogyakarta go easily then."

The faces of those who were stoned to death appeared in front of him very clearly. They were all old people who had followed him for several years. They died in Surabaya like this, and died so miserably. If he didn't take revenge, would Li Kun still be considered a human being?

Obviously escaping death, obviously regaining freedom, and obviously having his identity recognized, Li Kun didn't feel any contempt from a senior general like Ye Tingyang. Li Kun should laugh and be in high spirits. For a moment, he was indeed very happy. Everything he had "expected" came as he wished. But now he really didn't feel happy or excited at all.

It was as if the excitement was taken away by God at the moment of rescue. Now he was like a poisonous snake hiding in the cold darkness. Li Kun, who had escaped death, suddenly found that his wish that had been fulfilled was no longer his wish. His wish became to deal with the Sultan of Yogyakarta. He wanted to deal with the Sultan of Yogyakarta well——

…

Of course, the people in the Sultanate of Yogyakarta's palace didn't know what happened in Sleman.

After Luo Fangbai received the definite news that Uncle Guo was really delivered to the hands of the Marine Corps by the Yogyakarta people, he completely relaxed. He said to Gerrit and Hamungu Buwono II:

"Our country insists on peace talks instead of using force from the beginning. This has already given the Netherlands a lot of face. We have never mobilized more warships to gather here. This itself is also based on maintaining the inherent friendship between China and the Netherlands. Considered.”

“But you, the Netherlands, cannot always ignore China’s interests and favor Yogyakarta.”

"We have an old saying in China. It's rude to come back and not reciprocate. In everything you do, you must pay and you will get something in return. If you don't give but only ask for something in return, is this the principle of being a long-term friend?"

Luo Fangbai's attitude suddenly changed again. He was tough, tougher than diamond. This is completely a manifestation of putting one's own life at risk. Did Grit really want to open his head and see what his brain was like?

His intuition told him that Luo Fangbai's change was related to the Chinese who had just been sent away. However, this inference is too shocking, and there is no evidence to support this conclusion. Grit watched coldly as Luo Fangbai continued to show his fearlessness.

"There is nothing to talk about. All you can do now is sign this agreement." Luo Fangbai said unceremoniously to Hamenggu Buwono II. Not only was there no moderation in the words, but there was also no respect at all.

"Destroy or accept the conditions. There is no third option in Yogyakarta now!"

Hamungu Buwono II was like an angry lion, and the hair on his head was ruffled. He gritted his teeth and looked at Luo Fangbai. This was Luo Fangbai's reward for his "good talk." Hamungu Buwono II does not understand the Chinese Internet language in the 21st century, otherwise he would definitely yell at Luo Fangbai: "I bought a watch last year!"

"I'm going to kill you. I'm going to chop you all into pieces."

"Then I guarantee that you will not survive." Luo Fangbai puffed up his chest, "I also guarantee that the entire Yogyakarta royal family will not survive."

"Once one person in our mission loses his life because of you, the entire Yogyakarta will have to pay a thousand lives to atone for it."

"What I said is true. If you don't believe me, why don't you try?"

Luo Fangbai's chest was forced by two sharp keris, but Luo Fangbai carried the two keris without fear until he walked to Hamenggu Buwono II.

The thin outer cover was scratched by two sharp swords. The two sides were fighting, not acting. The tip of the sword not only pierced the outer cover but also Luo Fangbai's skin, and blood was already flowing down the wound.

Luo Fangbai has no fear!

Prince Mankun Legaran hugged Luo Fangbai's waist. He was really afraid that the sword would pierce Luo Fangbai's heart at the next moment.

Therefore, Kunle Galan II, who had a good relationship with Hamenggu Buwono II, did not see the two palace guards who had their swords pressed against Luo Fangbai's chest and retreated step by step. The two palace guards who came to the Sultan looked like pitiful kittens in front of a tiger. Even Hamungu Buwono II, whose belly exploded with anger, was shocked...
