Chapter 169 The King of Siam Arrives
Marshal Chen Yixin was discussing important matters with Qin Ruihua at this time.
He reported to Qin Ruihua: "Your Majesty, I believe that other countries will soon be aware of Australia's situation. Do we need to prepare in advance?"
Qin Ruihua responded: "No need to take action for now. After all, Australia's bad weather will not be relieved in the short term."
"If any country takes the lead at this moment, it will inevitably become the target of public criticism."
"As the saying goes, 'the first bird to stick its head out gets shot down,' and our country cannot cope with the joint attack of so many powerful countries alone."
"So there is no need to rush, just wait patiently, since it is so close to us anyway."
Chen Yixin nodded slightly to show his agreement, and then asked: "Yes, Your Majesty. We have successfully launched four amphibious assault ships. Do we need to continue to build more warships?"
Qin Ruihua answered decisively: "No, the existing fleet size is sufficient to meet current needs."
"After all, we have no overseas colonies to maintain."
Chen Yixin expressed his understanding again, but then mentioned another thing: "Yes, I understand."
"However, based on my observation, Shen Yingxiong seems to have bad intentions."
Qin Ruihua smiled slightly and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. In front of us, he is just an ant."
"We should now focus on training a large number of outstanding naval and air force personnel."
Marshal Chen Yixin responded: "Your Majesty is absolutely right."
At this time, Qin Ruihua asked: "How many pilots do we have now?"
“Your Majesty, we currently have nearly 100,000 pilots, some of whom serve in the military and some of whom work in the civil aviation system.
“Some are in civilian flying clubs and the rest are in various other jobs but come back regularly every year for training.”
"It's still too few. We need to continue to increase our training efforts. We need to have at least hundreds of thousands of pilots."
"As ordered!"
After these pilots complete their training, if they are not assigned to corresponding jobs.
They can find job opportunities on their own, but still receive a monthly state subsidy that is higher than the salary of an ordinary soldier.
Of course, if serving in the military, pilot salaries will be higher.
This means that once you become a pilot, you don’t have to worry about your livelihood even if you are not working.
Because the country will provide protection, and you can also choose to go out and look for other job opportunities.
In addition, a militia manual was compiled to improve the efficiency and quality of the troops' training.
It records in detail many important military training contents, including how to drive tanks, airplanes, armored vehicles, etc.
All militia members are required to undergo such training and to regularly join the army for study.
In this way, once a world war breaks out, they can be quickly added to the army after simple training.
Just as Qin Ruihua and Marshal Lu were about to continue the discussion, a guard walked in: "Your Majesty, the King of Siam requests an audience."
Hearing this news, Qin Ruihua frowned slightly, but soon regained his composure and waved his hand, saying, "Bring him in."
"Yes!" The guard obeyed the order and left, leaving the two men looking at each other.
After the King of Siam came in, he immediately knelt down and said, "Swipe your card, the respected Yanwu Zhaotian Jilong Zunhuang, the only one in the world who dominates the world, the Supreme True Dragon Xuanwu Jidi."
When Qin Ruihua heard this, he couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
He originally thought that the other party simply called him emperor, but he didn't expect that he would actually call out his full name.
The abbreviation of this title is Emperor Yanwu, because every emperor has a unique and domineering name.
To demonstrate its supreme status and authority.
He responded subconsciously: "Don't swipe my card, I don't have a card for you to swipe."
Marshal Chen Yixin, who was standing by, saw this and quickly reminded him softly, "Your Majesty, he is greeting you."
Qin Ruihua suddenly understood what was going on.
No wonder the sentence just now always sounds familiar.
He realized that he had misunderstood the King of Siam, so he quickly corrected him, saying, "King of Siam, there is no need to pay such a high tribute. I wonder what you are doing here this time?"
As Qin Ruihua finished speaking, the translators on both sides quickly translated the conversation into the language of their respective countries so that both parties could understand each other's meaning.
The King of Siam stood up and responded: "Dear Emperor Yanwu, please help our country!"
"Now Lanxi and Jili are trying to annex our territory and make us their colony."
There is nothing that can be done about this. The law of the jungle is the law of survival in this world.
If a country is not strong enough, it will be at the mercy of others.
Qin Ruihua thought for a moment and said, "King of Siam, I deeply regret this matter, but our country really does not want to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries."
“Unless you can provide something of sufficient value in exchange, it will be difficult for us to provide substantial assistance.”
After hearing this, the King of Siam quickly replied: "Your Majesty Yanwu, our country does not have any particularly precious items for your country to enjoy."
"But if your country is willing to lend a helping hand, our country is willing to become your vassal state and hand over all military power to you."
Qin Ruihua thought about it and realized that he had previously planned to bring the entire Nanyang region under his rule.
But the situation in Australia has changed dramatically now, so a new strategic plan is needed.
Compared with the entire Nanyang region, he values Australia more.
At this time, Qin Ruihua responded: "King of Siam, if our country extends a helping hand to you, what if you regret it the next day? Then what should we do?"
Upon hearing this, the King of Siam hurriedly said, "Your Majesty Yanwu, if our country regrets it, your country can annex us at any time."
Qin Ruihua didn't buy it and sneered, "You're dreaming!"
The King of Siam pleaded bitterly, "I hope His Majesty Yanwu can lend us a helping hand. Our country really does not want to become a colony of Lanxi and Jili."
After a moment of silence, Qin Ruihua finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, I agree."
"From today on, your country Siam will be a vassal state of our country."
The King of Siam immediately knelt down to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness!"
However, Qin Ruihua continued, "But I think the name of Siam is really ugly. From now on, your country's name will be changed to Taishan Kingdom, and you will be named King of Taishan."
The King of Siam was so excited that he kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace and for giving me the name!"
Qin Ruihua waved his hand and said with a slightly tired look: "Okay, it's settled."
"Leave the rest to Marshal Lu. I'm a little tired."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Marshal Chen Yixin saluted: "Yes, Your Majesty, I respectfully send Your Majesty off."
After Qin Ruihua left, Marshal Chen Yixin began to discuss follow-up matters with King Taishan.
After Marshal Chen Yixin and King Taishan had an in-depth discussion, King Taishan ended this important meeting and set out on his journey back to Taishan Kingdom.
The next day, King Taishan solemnly announced that Taishan Kingdom decided to submit to Yan Kingdom and become its vassal state.
This decision is undoubtedly a major adjustment to the relationship between the two countries, and it also marks that the cooperation between Taishan Kingdom and Yan Kingdom has entered a new stage.
At the same time, Yan State also issued a statement to the outside world, demanding that Jili State and Lanxi State return the occupied territory of Taishan State as soon as possible.
