Rebirth of the Flying Era

Chapter 1377 A power vacuum that lasted for several months

Du Fei trotted down the gangway next to the plane, shook hands with Chen Fangshi, who was standing at the front below, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Old Chen!"

 Chen Fangshi’s face was glowing red and he was in high spirits.

Since the so-called Nanyang Economic and Trade Alliance Conference was held in Siam, Chen Fangshi appeared in front of the world for the first time. Now he has become a well-known leader with regional influence.

  Chen Fangshi himself did not expect this.

The so-called great road is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, and one of them is escaped.

Although Chen Fangshi was proficient in deduction techniques, he did not expect that he would have such an opportunity in his later years.

 In fact, in his deduction, he had escaped from Yan Da and was content to live out his old age in peace.

Who would have thought that Du Fei's fate would also change when he encountered the variable.

 The first thing I did was meet the mothers of Yu Jiajia and Yu Xinxin, and they had a second spring.

 Later, he used Xiangjiang as a springboard to come to Nanyang and became the prime minister of a country.

The two exchanged simple greetings, but were not in a hurry to get down to business, because there was an uninvited guest behind Chen Fangshi. Du Fei was slightly surprised when he saw this person on the gangway just now.

This man is none other than Subian.

 Although according to legal principles, after the last transaction, Du Fei and Subian can be regarded as "ourselves".

Du Fei took over Subian's legal orthodoxy here and became the legitimate leader of the Indian Federation. Subian received a safety guarantee. At least Du Fei and Lin Tiansheng would not attack him across the sea, and they agreed with him in West Java and Rule of Sumatra.

 In fact, Subian is not afraid of Lin Tiansheng. Although Lin Tiansheng is more outstanding than Du Fei in land combat, Lin Tiansheng has no wings and cannot fly to Yajiada.

Du Fei is different. He needs ships and planes, and if you really want to mess with him, he will never get any good results.

It is precisely because he understood this that Subian made up his mind to stay humble.

Du Fei and Subian also shook hands warmly: "Haha, Lao Su, you're welcome and well!"

Subian smiled and shook his arms, his mouth full of compliments.

Even though he didn't say why he came, Du Fei could guess that he must be asking for something from someone.

But this was not the place to talk. After shaking hands with several senior local Kuching officials, Du Fei and Chen Fangshi got into a Hongqi car together.

 At present, all reception and official cars in Kuching are Hongqi cars imported from China.

However, these cars are not directly delivered as complete vehicles, but are produced through authorization. The parts are shipped first and assembled locally in Kuching.

According to the previous agreement reached in Bangkok, although 70% to 80% of the processes for assembling these cars are completed domestically, there is only one assembly line in the industrial zone in Kuching. The products are considered to be produced in Kuching and enjoy Nanyang trade. Alliance offers.

This kind of car is sold under the Hongqi brand in Kuching, but when sold abroad, it is transformed into a "Nanyang" brand car.

Although this kind of car has no technical advantages, fortunately, the cost is relatively low. Domestic labor and materials are lower than those in foreign countries.

Coming to Nanyang, the cost of assembly is not high. In addition, it is mainly sold locally in Nanyang, which naturally has an advantage over cars from other countries.

And in order to cooperate with car sales, Kuching has also united with several other fruit companies to crack down on smuggling.

ˆChallenges from transportation channels and market investigations have forced those who need to replace their cars to dare not reach out.

After these operations, coupled with the sales method proposed by Du Fei, similar to the '4S' store, he cooperated with Siam, Malay, Li Jiapo, and other local powerful forces to share the profits. These places naturally cooperated vigorously. .

This is only the first step. After the car sales network is launched, Du Fei's next plan will be the top priority.

With the current consumption level in Nanyang, only a handful of people can afford a car, and the ones that are really popular are motorcycles.

 With the expansion of outlets, the opportunity to capture the market will be provided by motorcycles with cheap prices and beautiful designs.

Du Fei sat in the car and listened to Chen Fangshi's report on the current situation.

  I was not in a hurry to talk about the friction with South Vietnam, but first I talked about Subian.

Seeing Subian here really made Du Fei very strange. If it weren't for something more urgent, Subian would never leave his nest easily.

 Sure enough, Chen Fangshi briefly explained the situation.

 Because the situation in Sumatra has become increasingly severe, and as the decline of Subian has become more and more obvious, the local factions on the island have become even more unscrupulous.

Du Fei understood that Subian was here to ask for help.

The two sides had made a secret agreement before, Subian offered legal authority, and Du Fei recognized his current territory. It can be said that both sides got what they needed.

 Now, there is no problem on Du Fei's side, Subian did not suppress the situation.

As for whether they can help or not, Du Fei and Chen Fangshi really need to help.

 Because Du Fei, or the current legitimacy of Kuching, has inherited the lineage of Subian and Suharto.

If Du Fei wants to have legitimate reasons to continue to expand within the original scope of Yindi, he must maintain Subian's orthodoxy.

 This is also the last bargaining chip Subian has in hand.

 Understanding this situation, Du Fei's mind was racing and he already had some ideas about this matter.

He then asked about the specific situation of the South Vietnamese warships.

Chen Fangshi's expression was serious and he said in a deep voice: "There is something really strange about this matter."

Du Fei said "hmm" and said, "What's so weird?"

 Actually, the reason Du Fei came over in such a hurry was because he felt something was wrong.

Logically speaking, there is no grudge between Kuching and Saigon. This time the other party is obviously targeting Kuching and must have come with a purpose.

Du Fei said: "Did you send someone to negotiate with them? What did they say?"

Chen Fangshi shook his head: "We sent a note through normal procedures, but the other party has not made any response so far."

Du Fei frowned: "Are you so slow?"

Du Fei has long known that the current situation in Saigon is very unstable. As America increasingly expresses its attitude of getting out, the rule of the South Vietnamese government they support is weakening significantly.

 Among them are "sluggish response", "financial collapse" and "the army is out of control".

Chen Fangshi added: "Our secret sentry over there reported that Saigon's senior officials were also surprised by this incident. According to our intelligence analysis, this may be an unauthorized action by the navy and not an order from Saigon."

Du Fei was noncommittal. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he could see that the situation over there was more chaotic than expected.

 Even to the point of directly mobilizing ships to take action without the approval of superiors.

 And if nothing unexpected happens, this matter must have something to do with America.

Although the situation in South Vietnam is terrible, the person who can allow the navy to mobilize ships at will must have America's background.

Du Fei thought about it and decided to contact America's 'friends' first to ask what was going on.

According to the current situation, there must be America's shadow behind this incident, otherwise those people would not be so bold.

However, Du Fei doesn’t think this is a sudden change by America. According to the current situation, no matter who is on the stage, they will not make much change.

  The person who more likely contributed to this incident was a faction or group within America.

Du Fei needs to know, who is this enemy?

Du Fei expressed his opinion, and Chen Fangshi nodded in agreement.

 Chen Fangshi thought the same way, so he did not take an extreme reaction when the situation arose. He only dispatched corresponding ships for confrontation, but did not dispatch gunships or missile boats.

　　It has not come up with the current trump card of Kuching.

Just a month ago, the heavy cruiser Du Fei bought from Lijiapo had been refitted.

Sea trials are currently underway and the feedback is quite good.

 After modernization, this old ship, which is more than 20 years old, has gained new vitality.

In addition to the two triple-mounted 203mm main guns at the bow, the main guns at the back were removed, new anti-ship missiles, electronic and radar equipment were installed, and a large number of anti-aircraft guns were installed, and the tail was widened. The deck forms a space for taking off and landing helicopters, increasing anti-submarine capabilities.

  Regardless of the combat effectiveness of this ship, its huge displacement alone can make it a dominant force in the Southeast Asia.

In this era, the largest ships of the Guo family in Nanyang had a displacement of two to three thousand tons. The caliber of their guns rarely exceeded 100 mm, let alone cannons of more than 200 mm, and they were equipped with a considerable number of anti-reflective weapons. Ship missiles, this giant ship is powerful enough to sweep across the Southeast Asia.

 Coupled with a considerable number of missile boats and gunships, Kuching's maritime power has firmly occupied the top spot in the Southeast Asia region.

However, the more times this happens, the less likely you are to act rashly.

 As the old saying goes, one gets carried away.

The time when people are most proud is often the time when they are most likely to stumble. This is the so-called situation. Chen Fangshi was even more careful in this regard.

He knows very well that the existence of the Kuching guided missile cruiser has broken the balance in the Southeast Asia region, and many people regard it as a thorn in the flesh.

This time South Vietnam's actions were so strange, Chen Fangshi was afraid that the other party wanted to fish.

It would be terrible if the Kuching was sent out and was plotted by the other party.

 Furthermore, Chen Fangshi has always adhered to his duties and knew his status very well. He was just Du Fei's butler and could not be the guest.

He was not born to be a lord, and his current position is already at its limit. If he really thinks about something he shouldn't have, he will be in trouble.

 Him himself, it doesn't matter, but now he, Old Chen, also has a wife and children.

　　Earlier, he thought that his whole life would be like this, with no children and a lonely life. He did not expect that his life would change unexpectedly in his later years. He was truly grateful to Du Fei.

 After saying this, the motorcade arrived at the Kingdom Assembly Building from the airport.

Du Fei got out of the car and led a group of people inside.

 As time passed, most of Kuching's affairs got on track, especially after the introduction of a large population. After the initial chaos, it quickly stabilized.

 The benefits of introducing the population are quickly revealed, various administrative efficiencies are greatly improved, and economic production explodes.

Last year alone, the economic growth of Kuching and the areas under its direct control was as high as 237%, more than quadrupling the original rate.

The area directly controlled by Lin Tiansheng is slightly larger than that of Du Fei, but it is roughly the same. However, because there is less industry, the data is slightly different, at more than 170%.

But this is a one-time deal, and it will return to normal after it stabilizes.

Du Fei's economy will grow relatively quickly due to the connection with domestic industries. Lin Tiansheng's side is not as good, but as long as it is close to Kuching, you can always get a sip of soup.

 In fact, the current relationship between Du Fei and Lin Tiansheng is very subtle.

 Originally, the two started their businesses from different places, each with their own people and territory.

 However, due to unexpected reasons, we had to hurry up and receive a large number of people in advance, which completely separated the two families. Now there is no clear boundary at all.

 There are many institutions where you are part of me and I am part of you.

 In fact, this situation is not a good sign. As the old saying goes, brothers will settle scores, not to mention that Du Fei and Lin Tiansheng are not brothers.

This situation will definitely turn out to be a bad debt over time, because it is human nature to feel that one has suffered a loss.

 In fact, Du Fei had thought of this situation at the beginning, but before he had time to think of a solution, Lin Tiansheng first proposed to join the royal fund in Kuching.

Du Fei didn't know if Lin Tiansheng came up with it himself or if he received some advice from an "expert". Anyway, he was quite clever.

 It is equivalent to directly binding the two families together to a certain extent through private economic interests. It is truly a case of both prosperity and loss.

If we can unite through in-laws in the future, the relationship will be stronger.

 This result is considered a win-win situation for Du Fei and Lin Tiansheng.

On Du Fei's side, because Lin Tiansheng joined, the position of host and guest has been quite clear, and Du Fei has the advantage in the relationship between the two parties.

Lin Tiansheng did not suffer any loss. Although he had some advantages in military capabilities, he had nearly 200,000 troops in his hands.

Through this population transfer, some private goods were also included, which greatly improved the combat effectiveness of his troops.

 Comparatively, Du Fei's Kuching had only a little over 100,000 ground troops, equivalent to one-half of Lin Tiansheng's.

 But Du Fei is rich! In addition to the army, there is also the air force and navy, which is terrible.

Especially after having played in Siam before, in just 48 hours, more than 10,000 people were transported by plane.

 Lin Tiansheng was even more aware of how important technical equipment is to a modernized army.

 In the future, as time goes by, the economic gap between his Pontianak and Dufy's Kuching will only become wider and wider.

 At that time, the chips in his hand will become less and less valuable, so it is better to join early.

After all, we are no longer in ancient times. When it comes to the question of who should be the emperor, if you become the emperor, you have to kowtow and kneel when you become a minister.

To put it bluntly, the current relationship between Du Fei and Lin Tiansheng is more like the major shareholder and the minority shareholder of a group company. You are a shareholder and I am also a shareholder. You have more shares and you have more say, but the most basic relationship is equality.

 It’s just that their relationship is far more complicated than this and full of more variables.

 Involving the domestic situation, it can be said that it is both cooperative and vigilant, and it also provides a guarantee for the other party to a certain extent.

  Came to Chen Fangshi’s office.

Du Fei directly ordered someone to send a telegram to the correctional officer Bu Shi to inquire about the relevant situation.

It was about one o'clock in Kuching at this time, and it was twelve o'clock in the night in Wan Sheng Tun.

Du Fei sent the telegram without expecting an immediate reply, and listened to the report from Wang Weizhong of the Navy.

The situation was pretty much the same, but it was more detailed than what Chen Fangshi said just now, and pointed out that the opponent's ship was not in good condition. During the confrontation, it was obvious that the speed was not enough, and the sailors on the ship were also relatively lax.

Du Fei nodded, these situations were not surprising, the opponent was obviously not ready for battle.

 The so-called provocation is more like a routine act.

 After understanding the situation, Du Fei did not stay long and took the car again to see Julie.

Julie is not at home, but in the special care unit of the newly built Royal Hospital Kuching.

Although she is the second child and Julie is physically strong, she is still very cautious because of her special status.

When Du Fei saw her, Zhu Li was walking in the garden on the roof of the building, accompanied by Ma Sanmei and Song Zhenzhu.

 She was not surprised that there was a spiritual connection with Du Fei, as if she saw her husband who had just left in the morning.

"Xiao Li~" Du Fei called out and stepped forward, holding Zhu Li's hand.

Ma Dongmei and Song Zhenzhen hid in silence.

Seeing that no one was around, Zhu Li pursed her lips and raised her hand to hit Du Fei: "You heartless person, are you going to stop coming to see me if nothing happens this time?"

Du Fei let her beat him, stepped forward and kissed her, saying, "I'll do it as soon as I get the chance."

As he spoke, he gently stroked Julie's belly. Because she was about to give birth, her belly was extremely big and protruding, and there were obvious stretch marks on her lower abdomen.

Julie rolled her eyes and said, "Whoever begs you to come, it's best not to come!"

Du Fei just pretended not to hear, hehehe said: "Where is that brat Zhengping?"

 Julie is in the hospital, and Du Zhengping definitely can't come with her.

　　Ju Li said: “My mother is taking it with her~”

Du Fei nodded, now basically all of Zhu Li's group has come to Nanyang.

　　asked: “The child’s grandma and grandpa are in good health?”

Zhu Li said: "It's all good, but my dad still can't get over it."

Du Fei didn't respond. Anyway, it was already like this.

 The second child is about to be born now.

　　After staying with Julie in the hospital for two hours, Du Fei was soon called away again.

 At about seven o'clock in the evening, the telegram to Wan Sheng Tun was answered.

As soon as the telegram was sent, Du Fei was notified, and half an hour later he got a reply from the doctor.

 It is not difficult to see from the telegram that Zhi Zhi Bu Shi was relatively confused about this matter.

Something is wrong with them recently. He only focused on the country and did not pay attention to the situation in Nanyang.

Although the telegram only mentioned it briefly, Du Fei thought of the watermen keenly, and it seemed that the time was not right.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn’t seem impossible. The situation in Nanyang has also changed, right?

According to what Du Fei learned in the capital before arriving, many people in America were fed up with the willful Commander Nico.

At the end of the telegram, Zhizhi Bushi promised to help inquire about the situation and asked Du Fei to wait. There would be news soon.

Du Fei put down the telegram in his hand and thought about the current situation.

If, as speculated, America's internal conflicts intensify and the nuclear bombing process is even started in advance, a power vacuum that will last for several months will inevitably occur.

 During this period, their central nervous system will be in a semi-paralyzed state. Can they use this opportunity to do something?
