Chapter 1358: Clear the Emperor's Side and Kill the Traitors

Du Fei spoke earnestly and looked at Gu Dan sincerely: "I think it's time for a new family to take charge of the kingship of this place. It's good that Pumi Beng believed in villains and suffered backlash. What do you think?"

Gu Dan couldn't help but his heart beat faster. In fact, he gave up the idea of ​​becoming the king after Thanon died.

Before regaining control of the Sokha military camp, he and his family were in danger. It would be good to keep the family, but there was no need to talk about overthrowing the king.

Unexpectedly, Du Fei still remembered this incident and brought it up again. What does this mean?

When Gu Dan heard these words again, he was not overjoyed.

His first reaction was to be wary and suspicious of Du Fei's purpose.

Needless to say, Gu Dan is really calm and has not become arrogant and dull because of his father's protection over the years.

His mind was spinning rapidly, and he quickly guessed some clues.

In fact, for him and his family, the safest thing at present is to continue his father's model and continue to cooperate with the royal family in the military model.

This is the easiest and lowest cost. The only thing required is to endure the revenge of killing his father and keep Pumi Beng using the royal family to endorse the legitimacy of the military government.

By then, domestic opposition will be at its weakest.

This is why he is worried that Du Fei will prevent him from taking revenge.

Although he didn't have much contact with Du Fei, he could see that Du Fei valued practical interests, the most iconic of which was the formation of the Nanyang Fruit Alliance.

If this is the case, maintaining the status quo at the lowest cost in exchange for influence and control is undoubtedly the most efficient and low-cost method.

Unexpectedly, Du Fei gave up the seemingly cheapest way and still planned to let him be the king.

How could this not make him more thoughtful?

If Gu Dan was a beauty, he might wonder if Du Fei was interested in him, but he was not at all. There was only one reason: Du Fei wanted more.

The cost is low and the resistance is small. Although it is easy to accomplish, it also means that the benefits are also small.

As an important chess piece, Gu Dan is also more likely to escape Du Fei's control.

But if the Quelik dynasty is completely overthrown and a brand new kingdom is established, it will face greater pressure.

If Gu Dan wants to stabilize the situation, he needs stronger support, subdues more forces, and kills more people.

His current strength is definitely not enough, and even the military may not support him by then. The only outsider he can really rely on is Du Fei.

Gu Dan was quite smart, and he understood Du Fei's intention just by changing his mind.

The king's position is not so easy to sit on.

However, this is Du Fei's conspiracy. Even if Gu Dan sees clearly, can he refuse?

Of course not, this is not a question of whether he is greedy for power or not, but Du Fei didn't give him a chance to choose at all.

Rejection would mean death, not his own death, but that of their family.

On this issue, Du Fei has many choices. If Gu Dan refuses, Du Fei changes his mind and can continue to support Pumi Beng. I believe Pumi Beng will be happy to accept it.

Du Fei offered the same conditions, or even more harsh conditions, but Pumi Beng would not refuse.

And once Pumi Beng gets Du Fei's support, will he keep Gu Dan, the man who has a grudge against him for killing his father?

Even Du Fei could have stopped looking for Pumi and supported the Progressive Party guerrillas in the north.

No matter what Gu Dan thinks, he has no other choice when facing this problem.

Gu Dan simply calmed down and said seriously: "I will listen to you in everything. I hope that one day in the future, you can crown me."

Coronation was originally an import from the West. It was a manifestation of the superiority of religious power over royal power. There is no such ceremony in the East.

The kingship of the East is ordained by Heaven.

Of course Gu Dan knew it, but by saying this, he showed his attitude. Even if he became the king in the future, he would still believe that Du Fei's status was higher than his.

Du Fei smiled and waved his hand. He didn't care about this kind of formalism: "No need, the royal power is given by heaven. How can I win the power of heaven? How about we still be friends and brothers?"

Gu Dan also smiled, but he just had to listen to this promise, but Du Fei's approachable attitude still made him feel better, at least it was much better than facing those arrogant Europeans.

The two agreed on the general direction, and Gu Dan asked what to do with the Progressive Party guerrillas in the north.

Du Fei frowned slightly.

To be honest, the current situation is a bit beyond his original plan.

At first, Du Fei did not expect this level. At first, he just wanted to force Siam through Tanongbi and let them join the Fruit Alliance.

Who knew that over time it would become what it is now.

Nowadays, the guerrillas of the Progressive Party are not easy to deal with. It is always not good to directly kill the donkeys. It is too damaging to the character.

Next time a similar situation occurs, it will be difficult to find someone to cooperate with you.

Moreover, the existence of the Progressive Party guerrillas has certain significance for Li Yuanchao and Guonai, and Du Fei is not easy to deal with.

After thinking for a while, he said: "It has become a climate over there. If you ask me to stop the fire on the spot, conduct peace negotiations, let them control themselves, or simply become independent."

When Gu Dan heard this, he immediately frowned, subconsciously not happy.

This is human nature, after all, he is also a Siamese.

Du Fei said meaningfully: "Actually, letting them separate may not be a good thing for us..."

Gu Dan clicked his tongue, savoring some of the taste.

If the Progressive Party guerrillas existed, it would not be him who usurped the Cherik Dynasty, but he and the Progressive Party would divide it together.

It was the king's immorality that angered the heaven and the people, and the four directions rose up, which changed the sun and the moon.

Moreover, the northern part of Siam is poor, with many mountains and little land. Although the Progressive Party has conquered a lot of territory in the south, it is less than a quarter of Siam. The real essence is still in the south, around the Gulf of Siam.

If the two sides really want to divide it, he will definitely have a big advantage here, and let them toss those barren places.

Du Fei patted Gu Dan who was still hesitating: "As the founder, don't be bound by the things of the previous dynasty. The meaning of your existence is to break the original rules. Besides, a bird in the hand is worse than a thousand birds in the forest. Don't be too greedy."

Gu Dan's heart trembled, and he heard what Du Fei meant, which was a warning and a reminder.

Establishing a new kingdom is complicated and difficult, and it is indeed not right to entangle with the guerrillas in the north.

Being distracted by the outside world will only make his situation more difficult. Besides, Pumibung is still alive, so everything he says is empty.

It is important to eliminate the enemy who killed his father and the biggest obstacle to establishing a new dynasty.

…

On the other hand, in the royal palace in Bangkok.

After talking to Jack just now, Pumibung became depressed, and the bright and majestic king's uniform on his body became a pile of cowardice.

He did not go to the Sokha military camp again, because it was meaningless.

In the past ten years, he was able to sit on the throne of king safely. In addition to the nearly three hundred years of the Cherik Dynasty, the biggest reliance was the support of America.

His relationship with America made the military and other forces fear him three times, and he kept looking for any opportunity to exaggerate this relationship on any occasion.

However, now, America has made it clear that she will not support him, and is even unwilling to help him say a polite word.

Pumibung was born in America and deeply understands the style of people there. There is no room for easing if he is treated with this attitude.

What should he do? He was already regretting it so much. Why did he get so obsessed with provoking Du Fei?

If there was no extra factor of Du Fei, his plan this time would have been at least 80% sure.

Pumi Bong sat alone in the study, desperately trying to think of a solution.

He was unwilling to sit and wait for death and become a real mascot. He still hoped to turn the tide.

Unfortunately, after thinking about it, he realized that after being abandoned by America, he had no power to use.

At this time, he had not realized that Du Fei and Gu Dan wanted to replace him and even take his life.

In his subconscious, he was a king with privileges. The worst result was to lose his current rights and become a symbolic king like the Yingguo royal family.

But the reality was particularly cruel.

At this moment, there was a sudden and urgent knock on the door from outside.

Pumi Bong frowned. The knock on the door was too loud and too urgent, which scared him. He shouted "Come in" in a bad mood.

A servant pushed open the door and said in a panic: "Your Majesty~Your Majesty, there are so many troops outside!"

Pumibeng's heart tightened, and he stood up suddenly but felt dizzy. He almost sat back down, but he was also supported by him and held the table next to him to stabilize.

Although he was unwilling, he knew that what was coming had come, and there was no worse outcome at this point.

But as a king, he had his pride, and he remained calm and asked in a deep voice: "Who is coming? What are they going to do?"

The servant licked his lips and whispered: "Your Majesty, outside is his son of Nongjiangjun, Gu Dan... Gu Danjiangjun~ He said that he wants to see Your Majesty."

Pumibeng pursed his lips: "Go and tell him that if he wants to see you, he should follow the normal procedure and ask him to come to the palace alone. Why bring so many people?"

The servant responded and went out to tell Gu Dan.

A moment later, he came to the gate of the palace and repeated what Pumibeng said.

At this time, the gate of the magnificent palace was closed, and there were thousands of fully armed soldiers outside.

Gu Dan, led by a tank, half of his body was sticking out.

Inside the gate of his palace, there were more than a hundred palace guards, led by a tall, dark and strong man.

Gu Dan couldn't help but sneer when he heard the words of Pumi Bong from the servant: "Alone audience? How did my father die? If I go in alone, I'm afraid I'll never come back. My father always abided by the agreement with the royal family, but was killed by the tyrant. Today he wants to deceive me! Come on, use the tank to knock the palace gate open for me!"

The servants inside were silent, he had guessed this result.

This time, all the people brought were Gu Dan and his family's diehards, they didn't care about the king.

Gu Dan gave an order, and the tank next to him immediately moved forward and hit the palace gate with a bang.

The palace gate was very solid, it was a mahogany that was as thick as a palm, with iron sheets on the outside and gold foil on it.

In the era of cold weapons, this kind of gate was definitely a gate that no one could open.

But in front of the tank, this wooden door really couldn't withstand it. It only blocked the tank for a moment before it made a teeth-grinding creaking sound.

Then there was a bang, and the door latch inside broke, and the hinges on the wall also broke.

The door fell down with a bang and was crushed by the tank.

The tank that Gu Dan was riding followed closely behind and drove into the palace gate.

But it was blocked by a group of palace guards inside.

The tank in front stopped, and they only received the order to break open the door. Gu Dan did not order to kill.

After all, this is not an ordinary place. The tank commander is not a fool. He gave the decision to Gu Dan.

Gu Dan took a glance and said with the microphone in his hand: "Bule, what are you going to do? You guys want to stop me?"

The dark and strong man named Bule said in a muffled voice: "Gu Dan, we are friends. I know why you came, but my family has been favored by the king. It is my duty to guard the palace."

Gu Dan frowned. The man in front of him was indeed his friend, and a very good friend.

He said in a deep voice: "You want to be buried with him? Is it worth it?"

Bule said: "Not for him, but for the friendship between my ancestors and the previous king."

Gu Dan pursed his lips. He knew the temper of this friend and knew that he could not persuade him, so he simply stopped persuading him and waved his hand directly.

The soldiers who rushed in with him immediately raised their guns.

Bule drew his waist knife without fear.

In his heart, he was ready to die.

But the people around him didn't have this awareness. When they saw this situation, some of them immediately became weak and sat on the ground, shouting "Sir, spare my life, I surrender, I surrender."

These so-called guards were all children of powerful people in Bangkok or other places. They came here to gild themselves, not to fight for their lives.

Gu Dan chuckled and said again: "Bule, you see, this kingdom is rotten, it's not worth your life, come and create a new kingdom with me."

Bule pursed his lips tightly, turned his head to look at the people who were kneeling or slumped on both sides, and his whole momentum weakened.

He turned and looked at Gu Dan on the tank.

He was not afraid of death. If someone had fired first, he would have died.

But the group of cowards around him made him doubt his decision. Is it really worth it to sacrifice his life for this kingdom?

Bule sighed, lowered the long knife in his hand, and silently stepped aside.

Gu Dan smiled. This is the best result.

Before coming, he had been mentally prepared to kill.

Du Fei said that no new kingdom is not built on the flesh and blood of the old kingdom.

Today he brought people and drove a tank here, which means that he was ready to make a river of blood.

But now, the surrender of the palace guards is a better result.

The river of blood means that the other party is still loyal to the Quelike Dynasty and must be physically eliminated.

However, just when Gu Dan was a little happy, a group of palace servants suddenly rushed out from inside.

These people actually had guns in their hands and fired at Gu Dan’s army who had just entered.

Gu Dan reacted quickly and immediately retreated into the tank.

Ding Ding Dang Dang, a bullet hit the tank armor.

But many soldiers who came with him did not react, and seven or eight of them were knocked down immediately.

And those palace guards in the middle, the people who rushed out of the palace did not care about their life or death.

Ble was stunned for a moment, and the bullet pierced his shoulder.

But he was also an extraordinary person. He instinctively tightened his muscles, and the bullet only went in half before being blocked by strong muscles.

Bree groaned, reached out to dig out the bullet from the wound, but ignored the bloody wound and looked into the depths of the palace with a complicated expression.

At this time, Gu Dan reacted, and the two tanks immediately moved first, and the machine guns on the turrets opened fire.

Immediately followed by the soldiers who rushed in from behind, the firepower instantly suppressed the servants of the palace.

These servants had not received formal training, but they relied on courage to launch a surprise attack, but if they really had to fight head-on, they were no match for the regular army.

They were killed in just one encounter, and hundreds of corpses lay on the ground in a mess, and the ground was covered with blood.

Gu Dan had a blank expression on his face and shouted: "Brothers, follow me, clear the court, and kill the traitors!"

With an order, the two tanks took the lead and rushed into the inner courtyard of the palace like two wild bulls.

And Gu Dan drove the tank to break open the gate of the palace, which surprised many people in Bangkok.

Although they all knew that Pumibang had killed Tanong, it was still unexpected for Gu Dan to do such a thing given his previous character.

After all, it was a kingdom that had existed for hundreds of years. Tanong and Gu Dan were ministers after all, and Pumibang was still the king no matter how many people there were.

He actually rushed directly into the palace. Even if he was under the banner of clearing the court, it was beyond the level that many people could accept.

At this time, in a mansion located in the northern part of the city.

An old man stood by the window on the third floor, looking at the gunfire coming from the direction of the palace from time to time, and whispered to himself: "Gu Dan, what are you going to do? Are you really going to kill the king and avenge your father?"

But at this time, someone suddenly reported: "Master, someone outside wants to see you."

The old man frowned and glanced at the butler.

He was the largest capitalist in Siam, and he had a flower man himself, but he didn't have the name of the flower man.

Because flower men in Siam would be treated badly, they had to try their best to hide this identity.

The old man asked, "Who is it?"

There were countless people who wanted to see him every day, and he couldn't see everyone.

As a butler, he certainly understood that since he had come, it meant that the other party was extraordinary and he could not refuse.

The butler said: "Master, the person here calls himself Du Fei."

The old man was slightly moved: "Du Fei from Kuching?"

The butler nodded: "There was also a foreigner accompanying him, who just came a few days ago."

The old man immediately thought of Iger and hurriedly said: "Please come to the reception room, I will be there soon."

Du Fei was someone he couldn't afford to offend. In the past two days, he had seen groups of large gray-blue planes flying past the sky more than once.

At present, after three rounds and six batches of airlifts, Du Fei's total strength in Siam has reached 13,000.

Among them, Du Fei gave out eight thousand, and Lin Tiantian gave out five thousand.

Coupled with the 30,000 troops deployed by Li Yuanchao on the border, Du Fei could directly or indirectly use more than 40,000 men.

Not only that, there were gunships patrolling the sky, and ships flying the Kuching flag also appeared on the southern sea.

Coupled with radio broadcasts, the citizens of Bangkok now know that those flying in the sky, running on the ground, and sailing in the sea have a name called Nanyang Weihe Force.

They were not invaders, but came at the invitation of the military government.

That's what the radio said anyway.

After a while, the old man changed into a set of more formal clothes and came to the reception room downstairs.

The room is very spacious and the furnishings are quite impressive.

Du Fei was still dressed in military green, with military boots on his feet, and his legs crossed. He didn't look like he was a guest, as if this place was more like his home.

Eagle stood upright next to the sofa.

The old man came in, slightly surprised. In his opinion, with Eagle's position and status, he was qualified to sit next to Du Fei.

But now, the relationship between the two is obviously not an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship, but more like a master-servant relationship.

The old man couldn't figure out what charm Du Fei had, considering that Eagle was from a serious knightly aristocratic background.

At this time, there was no time to think about it. The old man immediately clasped his hands and said, "Mr. Du, I apologize for missing you."

He was speaking in somewhat idiosyncratic Mandarin.

Du Fei smiled and did not get up. He just pointed to the sofa next to him and said, "Mr. Wu, please sit down. Don't be formal."

The old man was stunned for a moment, then covered himself up and sat down where Du Fei pointed with a smile.

He could see that some of Du Fei's visitors today were unkind, so he asked cautiously: "Mr. Du's name is very popular among my ears. I don't know what I want to do when I come here today. I am obligated to do so."

Knowing that the other party was coming with bad intentions, the old man simply took the lead and showed his correct attitude.

With the current situation in Siam, no matter what Du Fei wanted from him, he was not qualified to refuse.

Du Fei chuckled and said, "I'm afraid Mr. Wu has misunderstood. In recent years, people have been gathering wool in Nanyang to cast a shadow?"

The old man was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed.

From what Du Fei meant, he didn't just come to him to catch the autumn wind.

But if not, why?

He didn't believe that Du Fei was a vegetarian.

Besides, Du Fei's words also hurt his lungs.

"This... please make it clear, Mr. Du." The old man clasped his fists again, as if I just made this pile and you can cut it how you want. I even thought that it was a coward.

Du Fei was not fooled by this attitude. He saw that this was an old cunning guy who said he was nice. If he really wanted to get things done, he would have to at least give him a half.

Du Fei was too lazy to do Tai Chi with him, so he had some time to say: "Mr. Wu, you just said that I have a thunderous reputation. I'm afraid it's not a good reputation~"

The old man laughed dryly. He didn't understand what Du Fei's plan was and he didn't dare to pick up the fight easily.

Du Fei continued: "I heard that during the Anti-Japanese War, you donated a lot of money and materials to the country."

The old man was stunned for a moment and nodded quickly: "Everyone is responsible for national justice, and I am just doing my meager part."

Du Fei said: "No matter who you give the thing to, it's always good to have this intention. That's why I came to you this time. Are you interested in cooperating with me?"

The old man blinked rapidly, and it took several seconds to react: "This... old man, I don't know what you mean, sir?"

Du Fei said: "It means literally, me, you, and Gu Dan, the three of us are a partnership and do business in Siam."

The old man's breath was stagnant. With his experience and experience, he instantly understood Du Fei's intention.
