When Sa Zhenbing and Zhu Yuan were waiting for the arrival of domestic troops in Manila, several Chinese rushed here immediately, hoping to see the top leader of the Chinese army. And because he is Chinese, both Sa Zhenbing and Zhu Yuan also met him.

"General, my lord, we Zamboanga Chinese people have been looking forward to Master Wang for a long time! We Zamboanga Chinese people have been bullied by those local natives all the time. We have to pay heavy taxes. Our Chinese life is hard! So, Also ask the general to be the master for us!" The Chinese knelt down and said.

"Who are you, tell me slowly!" Sa Zhenbing said.

The person introduced himself and said: "I am from the Zamboanga Chinese family. Zamboanga currently has tens of thousands of Chinese, and it is a gathering place for Chinese. After hundreds of years of development, we now have tens of thousands of people. My name is Zamboanga. Lin Yuan is a member of the Lin family of Zamboanga Chinese. And we Zamboanga Chinese have always been bullied by those natives, and we are forced to pay heavy taxes to those natives, and then we live in dire straits. Tens of thousands of Chinese now hope The general can lead the troops to liberate us, and then let us bathe in the grace of Lord Wang of Taiwan."

When Sa Zhenbing heard what the Chinese said, he immediately complained in his heart: "You can't even tell a lie. At most half of what you said is true, and nothing else is too credible!"

The ice pit in Sa Town must be full of old fritters, so naturally they will not believe all the words of this Chinese. However, seeing that everyone is overseas, and they can barely be regarded as meeting old acquaintances in other places, Sa Zhenbing was very face-saving and did not stop him from speaking. This allows them to finish talking.

"General, our Zamboanga is currently a city in the Sultanate of Maguindanao, but this city is already under the control of our Chinese. However, we will be threatened by some natives at any time. So we hope that Master Wang will come to rescue We. We have been looking forward to Wang Shi in Zamboanga for a long time. Before the Taiwanese army went to occupy Kalimantan Island in South Asia, we have been looking forward to the Taiwanese army coming to help us. But we have not been able to wait for Wang Shi. And now we have finally arrived at Wang Shi, but not long ago, Wang Shi dared to go in the direction of Manila. And we sailed over immediately, but we did not expect that your fleet, General, uses steam engines, and the speed is much faster than our wooden boats. So We couldn’t catch up. Hurry up and finally arrived a few days after the general arrived in Manila. But we are looking forward to the general’s reinforcements, and hope that the general can send reinforcements quickly. Then we can liberate the Chinese in Zamboanga. "Lin Yuan said.

It was only then that Sa Zhenbing realized that there were also Chinese in the Philippines, and that the Zamboanga generation in the Philippines actually had a Chinese community, which was unexpected in Taiwan before. In the past, Taiwan had been keeping an eye on Manila, but now it never occurred to me that there were actually Chinese in this southern part of the country. And depending on the situation. There is an independent country in the south, which surprised Sa Zhenbing. Doesn't the independent country in the south belong to the Philippines? If it does not belong to the Philippines and is an independent country, then troubles will follow. Taiwan only went to war against Spain, and did not go to war against these independent countries. If so, Taiwan may not be able to eat the entire Philippines.

"Are there any independent countries in the south?" Sa Zhenbing asked.

That Lin Yuan immediately explained, and it was only then that Sa Zhenbing knew what was going on. In the southern part of the Philippines, it is actually beyond the jurisdiction of Spain. And many years ago. Although the Spaniards landed in Manila and gradually occupied many places in the Philippines, they failed to open up to the south. Because there are two "big countries" in the south. One is called the Sulu Sultanate, and the other is called the Maguindanao Sultanate. These two Sultanates were once two big countries in this Southeast Asia, with a population of millions.

Although the Spanish colonists were powerful back then, they failed to conquer these two sultanates. However, neither of the two sultanates could defeat the Spanish colonists, which allowed them to reach a mutual compromise agreement. That is to say, the Spaniards were the rulers of the entire Philippines, and the Philippines included these two sultanates. But in fact, the two Philippine sultanates have a high degree of autonomy. Owning its own army, apart from the deprivation of diplomatic rights by the Spaniards, other powers are also owned. However, because they were deprived of diplomatic rights and weak in strength, no country in the world recognized these two sultanates. In fact, they all belong to the Philippines in name, so it can be regarded as a compromise between the two parties.

"Since they belong to the Philippines in name, it will be much easier." Sa Zhenbing said.

These two sultanates are actually similar to Taiwan and the mainland. They belong to the same place in name, but they have a very high degree of autonomy, so they seem to be an independent kingdom. And this reassures Taiwan, because they are not an independent country, but just two indigenous chiefs of the colonies. And since they nominally belong to the Philippines, and the Philippines also belong to the colony of the Spaniards, if Taiwan goes to war with the Spaniards, it is reasonable and legal to occupy the Philippines. And since they belong to the colonies of the Philippines, and neither of these two sultanates has been recognized by the international community, even if Taiwan destroys them, it is natural and reasonable and legal. Internationally, at most, two indigenous chiefs would be wiped out, which is no big deal, after all, they are not a legal country!

"What do you want to do when you come to our place?" Sa Zhenbing asked.

"We hope that you, my lord, can clean up those aborigines, and then vent your anger for us Chinese!" Lin Yuan said.

"In human terms, what exactly do you want to get?" Zhu Yuan immediately scolded angrily.

After Lin Yuan heard this, he immediately licked his face and smiled, "We can't hide our small thoughts from the two adults. We hope that the adults can help us defeat the Maguindanao Sultanate and the Sulu Sultanate. The leader of the Zamboanga Chinese, the Lin family hopes to become the king of the southern Philippines. We will be loyal to Mr. Wang for generations, guard the south of the Philippines for Mr. Wang, and ask for the canonization of Mr. Wang. I think Mr. Wang will be willing, because We Chinese have the same language and race, so it’s better than those natives, isn’t it?”

"Huh, that's enough, needless to say. We can tell you exactly that we will never allow a second independent kingdom in Nanyang, and all Nanyang territories will be under the direct control of our Chinese government. No Canonize the kingdom like in the past, so don't think about it." Zhu Yuan said.

"This..." Lin Yuan was a little surprised.

Lin Yuan never thought that Wang Guorui would directly control Nanyang and would not allow any independent kingdom to exist. And Lin Yuan also guessed, would Wang Guorui tolerate the existence of an independent kingdom like the Lin family in Zamboanga? You must know that the Lin family is the leader of the Zamboanga Chinese and has always ruled the Chinese. And this time they hope to go one step further with the help of Wang Guorui's army, so that they can become the king of the southern Philippines. But now Wang Guorui does not allow such an independent kingdom to exist, and wants to directly control Nanyang, which makes them speechless. If this continues, the independent kingdom of the Lin family will disappear completely, because Wang Guorui does not allow the Lin family to continue to rule this place for generations. The current Taiwan, and even the future China, can only have one country, one government, and one leader. Well, although Lao Jiang's words are used to fool people, but this is also necessary, especially in China. There are no two days, and the people have no two masters. This is also a tradition in China since Qin Shihuang. There will never be a country within a country. The dynasties of all dynasties have aimed at the unification of national power. As for those countries that want to live in peace, they all fail in the end. So Wang Guorui would not allow this, Wang Guorui would not allow people like the Lin family to rule a place all year round. Perhaps Wang Guorui could allow the Lin family to join as an official, but he did not allow the Lin family to continue to rule Zamboanga and become a country within a country.

"My lord, you should ask Lord Wang, our Lin family can..." Lin Yuan still wants to work hard~lightnovelpub.net~ because they still don't want to give up the right to rule Zamboanga.

This is also the so-called truth that he would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow. Naturally, Lin Yuan did not want his Samboanga to be taken away, so he naturally wanted Sa Zhenbing to think more about it. You can't lose it in your own generation, otherwise it would be a loss of the foundation of the ancestors, and it would be a great disrespect to the ancestors.

"No need to ask, I dare not say anything else, but I can be sure that Mr. Wang will not allow this. He is more than anyone else, who will not allow our country to split, understand? In order not to split, he can even hold back It is conceivable that he would absolutely not tolerate the idea of ​​being an emperor, even he himself would not be this sinner through the ages. So, what kind of onion do you want to split the country?" Zhu Yuan sneered .

"Get ready now. We will go to war against the Sulu Sultanate and the Maguindanao Sultanate. Since they are independent kingdoms, let's take the southern part of the Philippines first!" Sa Zhenbing said.

Soon, the Navy's destroyer detachment immediately started its activities, and then prepared to take the troops of the East Borneo Military Region to the Sulu Sultanate and the Maguindanao Sultanate in the south. This time, since they are a kingdom not under Spanish rule , then naturally we must eliminate them as soon as possible, otherwise it will be easy to cause problems in the future! (to be continued)
