Chapter 1160 Bush's Bombshell

On the south bank of the Sarao River, in the middle of an intersection, there is a statue of a white cat. It is a symbol of this city.

In a cafe facing the cat, a bald middle-aged white man wearing a white shirt was stirring the coffee in front of him with a bright silver metal spoon.

Opposite him sat a local young man with a side-parted hair and a lot of hair wax on his head.

He is said to be a young man, nearly thirty years old. He is wearing a yellow and blue plaid suit and a pair of three-jointed leather shoes. He has a flattering smile on his face: "Mr. Pitt, don't worry, I will definitely act according to your instructions."

The white man named Pete smiled and picked up the coffee, and raised the cup to the young man: "I wish you good luck, sir~" The young man also quickly picked up the coffee cup...

After a while, the young man finished his coffee and stood up to leave. Peter bowed, but did not leave. ??

Ordered another cup of coffee.

About twenty minutes later, another slightly younger white man walked in from outside. He glanced inside and quickly spotted Peter.

He walked over, sat across from me and ordered a cup of coffee. Pete smiled: "Hey, man, you're late."

The white man opposite shrugged: "Something happened and I was delayed. I'm treating you today."

Peter said: "Of course it's your request, Rooney. I came all the way from Lijiapo to help you." At this time, the waiter came over with coffee.

The two stopped talking. Rooney added sugar to the coffee, stirred it a few times, took a sip, and then said seriously: "How is the situation?"

Pete smiled and said everything went well.

Rooney breathed a sigh of relief: "The guerrillas in the south have become more and more violent recently. If their territory expands, they will threaten Lord Joe Wood's mining area."

Peter said hey: "Man, I heard that you should have 20% of Sir Wood's gem mine~" Rooney was not surprised, this was not a secret in the first place.

Within the Military Qing Bureau, people like them who were sent to India and Malay basically had no hope of promotion. Therefore, use the power in your hands to do something that is not painful or painful, and everyone above will turn a blind eye.

Rooney said with a smile: "Pete, you have just come from London, and you don't know the market here yet." He lowered his voice slightly and said: "As long as the problem in the south is solved this time, Sir Wood promised that in addition to one hundred thousand pounds, And 10% of the shares.”

Peter was not happy after hearing this, but frowned.

Rooney is also a good person and immediately understands what the other person is thinking.

Explained: "Man, don't look at me taking 20%, but there are still people from up and down here, big shots from Huandun, from the military, from the parliament... In the end, it fell into my hands. But it’s less than 10%.”

Peter's expression softened and he laughed: "That's not what I meant. By the way, I'm asking you about someone."

Rooney was asking for help from others, and of course he didn't care about the little incident just now: "Who is it?" Pete said, "This man's name is Du Fei, he is in his twenties, he is from China..."

When Rooney heard this, he immediately reacted and frowned: "Are you looking for him?" Peter said: "Do you know this person?"

Rooney shook his head: "I don't know him, but this man has been very active in Southeast Asia recently. He is behind the situation in East Java and Kalimantan and has provided a large number of weapons."

Having said this, I couldn't help but look at Peter: "Are you interested in this person?"

Pitt bluntly said: "It's not me, it's Johnson from the Slater family."

Rooney suddenly realized: "I heard that the last time Saul of the Slater family died in Xiangjiang, it seemed to be related to Du Fei. Is that madman Johnson trying to avenge his cousin?"

Peter curled his lips: "You also said that he is a lunatic. Do you still think it is the Middle Ages? He is always dueling with others..."

Rooney did not respond. Although he did not disapprove of the young master of the Slater family, he knew that the Slater family was not easy to mess with.

What he said was not pleasant to hear, and it reached the ears of the other party. Peter had a strong backer and was not afraid of the Slaters. Sir Wood behind Rooney could not afford to offend Slater.

Rooney smiled unnaturally.

Peter was still unfinished and continued to say mysteriously: "By the way, something big has happened to the Slater family recently. You don't know yet, do you?"

Rooney shook his head. He was far away in Nanyang and was really not well informed about the news from Luandun. Pete lowered his voice and said, "Old Slater

The Count...is dead! "

Rooney was surprised. This was indeed a big deal.

Not only for the Slater family, it is also something that cannot be ignored.

Rooney suddenly understood why Johnson Slater suddenly wanted to trouble Du Fei.

Revenge for his cousin is second to none, but the most important thing is probably the succession struggle for the title of earl. Johnson must show a strong attitude and show tougher tactics to gain greater popularity.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but worry about how Johnson's opponent, Miss Winnie Slater, would respond.

In fact, he did not know Winnie Slater. He had only seen her from afar at the Cambridge University Alumni Reunion a few years ago. He heard from classmates who went with him that the outstanding beauty turned out to be a member of the famous Slater family. heir.

The Slater family is a pirate, not an orthodox noble.

The succession order of the family title is not clear, and almost every succession of the title involves a battle.

Not only male members have the right to inherit, outstanding women also have the right to inherit and become countesses. Although this situation is rare, it has not never happened.

Unfortunately, compared to the dazzling noble lady, Rooney was just a commoner and relied on the grassroots to learn to make a difference. He was not qualified to get in front of this beautiful and noble school girl.

It can only be seen from a distance.

But to this day, the memory is still fresh... three days later.

Lin Tiansheng was studying the next action plan with Kim Zheng and Chen Zhengwei at the headquarters in Pontianak. Suddenly a soldier hurried in from outside: "Report!"

Lin Tiansheng looked over and asked, "What's the matter?"

The soldier said: "I just received news that our guerrillas were attacked in the north." When the three of them heard this, they all frowned.

Chen Zhengwei asked: "Who is the other party?"

The soldier replied: "The comrades at the front said that it was the Malay border patrol who took the initiative to cross the border and provoke Lin Tiansheng. His expression was serious and he was deep in thought.

Chen Zhengwei was a little anxious.

They have just stabilized the situation now. If there is a conflict with the Malay people in the north at this time, they are likely to fall into the dilemma of being attacked from both sides.

But what he couldn't understand was that although their relationship with the Malay side was not very good, they had always been on the same page.

Why did you suddenly take the initiative to provoke this time?

Lin Tiansheng did not consider the reason.

At this point, it doesn't matter what the reason is. What needs to be considered is how to deal with this situation. Should I break my teeth and swallow them in my stomach, or should I fight a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, and return the hard steel?

The former is suffocating, while the latter is too risky.

Jin was smoking a cigarette on the side and asked: "Old Lin, what do you say? How about I take someone there?" Lin Tiansheng didn't use his Northern Cold Soldiers much against Tut Shaojiang last time.

Jin Zheng could also guess Lin Tiansheng's thoughts, but his visit to Nanyang was not just for vacation.

He needs to fight, and use fighting to baptize the officers and soldiers who came with him. Only after being baptized by blood and fire, these people will become his direct descendants.

It's not just because he is Jin's son that he obeys his orders.

Therefore, after hearing about the conflict in the north, Kim Zheng immediately thought of sending troops to cover up the water and earth. And after seeing Tute Shaojiang's fighting prowess, he really didn't take these Nanyang people seriously.

To put it bluntly, we Beihan can't beat Meguo, Goose, Huaxia, and we can't beat a few Nanyang monkeys!

Lin Tiansheng didn't say anything. He thought carefully for two minutes before speaking: "Lao Jin, don't worry, you will be useful soon."

He first comforted Jin Zheng, and then said to Chen Zhengwei: "Old Chen, are there some of our comrades in Malay as well?" Chen Zhengwei nodded.

Lin Tiansheng said: "Find a way to mobilize the comrades over there to find out what happened. Is it the decision of the Malay superiors or the officers below who crossed the line without authorization?"

Chen Zhengwei immediately responded "yes", but still looked at Lin Tiansheng, waiting for his next move.

make. This is the most important thing.

Lin Tiansheng looked at the map on the table and said in a deep voice: "The most taboo among military strategists is fighting on two fronts. In the two world wars before and after, Germany fought on two fronts. It could not balance the east and the west and ultimately lost. We have just stabilized our position and cannot make this mistake. This is a mistake. Malay is just testing it and has not taken any major action. We will ignore it for the time being.”

One sentence set the tone first, which was to ignore the provocation from the north. This made Chen Zhengwei secretly relieved, but Jin Zheng was a little disappointed.

Lin Tiansheng continued: "However, it is too passive to just let it go." He looked at Chen Zhengwei and said, "Old Chen, you can find a way to contact the comrades over there. We can fund them with a batch of weapons and let them make a fuss... ····.”

Chen Zhengwei's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly: "Commander Lin, you want to surround Wei and rescue Zhao! I will contact you later."

Lin Tiansheng smiled and looked at the map again: "In addition, it will be enough to withdraw all our strongholds on the border and garrison a few major towns."

Chen Zhengwei was stunned. He didn't expect Lin Tiansheng to give up the northern border. Although there was a conflict just now, it was unnecessary, right?

Once the border strongholds are abandoned, there will be thousands of square kilometers of land! .??.

Lin Tiansheng patted him on the shoulder: "Old Chen, don't worry. The big step back today is for the big step forward tomorrow." Then he pointed at the map: "Originally, I wanted to rest for a while before taking the next step, but now it seems I can't wait. Let’s send troops south to completely defeat Tut!”

As he spoke, Lin Tiansheng pointed his finger at Palangka.

This is the capital of Central Kalimantan, and it is also the hometown of Tut Shaojiang. Chen Zhengwei was surprised. He didn't expect that Lin Tiansheng would be shocked if he didn't move. Is this trying to swallow up Kalimantan in one bite?

But when Chen Zhengwei asked the question in his heart, Lin Tiansheng shook his head and said solemnly: "I have discussed this issue with Comrade Du Fei before. Whether it is now or in the future, we have no intention of annexing Central Kalimantan. Conditions: There are not many Chinese over there, and the population composition is complicated, and there are religious factors. It is a time bomb. If we really get it, the enemy will jump at will and we will be devastated."

Chen Zhengwei breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, this was what he was worried about.

He was even more afraid that Lin Tiansheng would be dazzled by victory like Jiang Dingsheng.

Lin Tiansheng continued: "We are not fighting Palangka to occupy this place, but to help the Dayak people here become independent."

Chen Zhengwei immediately understood Lin Tiansheng's intention. Needless to say, this plan is quite clever.

It turned out that Suharto relied solely on Tut Shaojiang and the more than 10,000 soldiers in his hands to suppress the local Dayaks. Once these soldiers are gone, it is equivalent to breaking the tight spell of the Dayaks.

When the time comes, I don’t believe they can resist the temptation to establish an independent country.

In fact, in Central Kalimantan and South Kalimantan, there were semi-independent Sultanates of Machen a few decades ago. Later, ink pads were incorporated for various reasons.

It’s even more independent than Nusa Tenga.

By that time, West Kalimantan will be occupied by Lin Tiansheng and others, and Central Kalimantan will be independent. The situation in Kalimantan is completely corrupt.

When Suharto wants to pacify West Kalimantan, he will first have to face the Dayaks occupying the northern part of the Java Sea. Chen Zhengwei said: "I can contact the Dayak people and cooperate with them inside and outside..."

Unexpectedly, Lin Tiansheng waved his hand: "Old Chen, don't worry now. The key to this matter is not to contact the Dayaks, but that we must defeat Tut Shaojiang's main force. It was we who defeated Tut Shaojiang, and then moved the place Leave it to the Dayaks instead of fighting alongside them..."

Chen Zhengwei was slightly startled.

In fact, what he thought was correct, but his mentality and thoughts were completely different from Lin Tiansheng's.

Because they have been in a weak position in Nanyang for a long time, even people like Jiang Dingsheng and Chen Zhengwei will inevitably have a weak mentality.

I always hope to use external forces to contact more allies and join forces to keep warm.

Lin Tiansheng didn't have this kind of mentality. With the little power of the Dayak people, he couldn't look down on them at all.

Why contact them? Just call them down and give them alms, so that you can gain more initiative in the future.

Although Jin Zheng didn't speak much during the whole process, he kept observing.

>

Look for the similarities and differences between him and Lin Tiansheng to make up for his own shortcomings.

As Lin Tiansheng made a decision, the war machine centered on Pontianak began to operate. Counting the 3,500 people under Kim Jong's command, Lin Tiansheng gathered a total of 15,000 people this time. After defeating Tute Shaojiang last time, the previously lost soldiers were quickly replenished.

The so-called defeat is like a mountain. Most of those soldiers were not annihilated, but more likely to break up and escape.

The news of guarding Pontianak spread, and many soldiers who had fled returned. They were reorganized and trained, and the number of soldiers expanded rapidly. These days, Jiang Dingsheng's injuries are much better.

Lin Tiansheng stayed in Jiang Dingsheng to guard his home, and he took Jin Zheng and Chen Zhengwei south along the highway.

At this time, Peter and Rooney did not know that the conflict caused by them just wanting to keep a gem mine indirectly contributed to the demise of Tootsho and the drastic changes in the situation on Kalimantan...

Meanwhile, back to Xiangjiang.

After several days of frequent secret negotiations, Du Fei and Bush finally reached an agreement.

The seven Meguo pilots were returned, and the other party paid a total of 65 million yuan in "nutrition fees" and "medical expenses."

Du Fei didn't know what the officials from Meguo's Finance Department would think when they saw this bill. Anyway, the money had already arrived in his account.

However, just when Du Fei was happily planning to return to the capital, Bush dropped a bombshell on him. It was around two o'clock in the afternoon, by the swimming pool downstairs of the hotel.

Cixin was wearing a white floral dress and sitting quietly under a parasol. Beside her, Xiaowu yawned lazily.

Not far away, Ma Dongmei stood under the shade of a tree, looking around from time to time.

Two crows landed on the treetops above her, and several more were circling in the sky. From the ground, there were only a few black spots.

In the swimming pool, in the clear blue water, Du Fei and Bush were racing in swimming trunks. Bush served in the Navy, so it goes without saying that swimming is a life-saving skill.

Du Fei gathered his strength and stopped at the edge of the swimming pool with only half a body lead.

Bush caught up and wiped the water on his face with his hand: "Du, I didn't expect you to be such a good swimmer. I was an athlete at Yale University back then."

Du Fei smiled and said: "George, who are you looking down on? I'm only twenty-four years old!"

Bush was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Du, when I am with you, I always overlook your maturity and wisdom. You are actually the same age as our Walker."

As he spoke, Bush stood up with his arms, got out of the water and put on a thick bathrobe.

Du Fei also came up, wiped his hair with a bath towel, and waved to the waiter not far away. The waiter immediately came over with two glasses of whiskey with ice balls in it.

Bush took the wine glass and motioned to the waiter to stay away. Du Fei also took the wine glass, not knowing what he wanted to say. The two walked to the side and sat on the high chairs.

Bush took a sip and said, "Have you ever heard of Wilton Steel Company?" Du Fei didn't understand, was surprised, and shook his head.

Bush explained: "Wildon is a large steel company with a history of more than 50 years and has a number of important patented technologies in the industry..."

Du Fei listened to "ba la la la" as he introduced the steel company.

It wasn’t until the end that we got to the point: “Due to cost issues, Wilton Company is preparing to cut down a steel production line. This production line had just been technologically upgraded in 1965. More than 38 pieces of equipment are new, including a 1700 mm hot rolling mill. and cold rolling mills, both of which are the most advanced in the world..."

At this point, Du Fei still didn't understand: "You want to sell this production line to me?" Bush smiled: "How about it? Are you interested?"

Du Fei frowned and said, "Will your country agree to this?"

Bush shrugged indifferently: "It's just a second-hand production line, who cares~ Even if you don't want it, you have to sell it to Pohang Steelworks in Nanhan."

Du Fei's heart moved. Pohang Steelworks!

Anyone who knows a little about football in the future must have heard of this name.

Pohang Steelworks seems to have flourished in the 1970s. Could it be related to the introduction of the Meiguo Steel production line this time?
