Chapter 894: Judge the Gentleman’s Belly with the Heart of a Villain (Second update, please subscribe)
The era of arbitrarily expanding territory is over!
What is this?
is a reminder, of course it can also be understood as a warning.
In fact, after the "Siam Crisis" broke out, Washington's attitude was very complicated. On the one hand, of course they were happy to see their little brothers acting as pawns in "defending the free world", but on the other hand, they But they are worried that Nanyang will take the opportunity to expand its territory.
After all, Nanyang has a "record" in terms of territorial expansion.
For the United States, which is working hard to build a "post-war order", to be precise, a world order under the leadership of the United States, such expansion is definitely not in the interests of the United States. Why is the United States now engaged in large-scale expansion around the world? Throw coins and dress yourself up like a white lotus, because creating an image is itself part of the Cold War.
So Washington not only hopes that Nanyang will charge into battle, but also does not want them to act recklessly.
This time Nanyang's "hooliganism" not only frightened the Soviet Union, but also silenced Washington. Even the Secretary of State who was originally planning to visit Nanyang had his meeting postponed.
No way, security issues are more important than economic issues.
The reason why security issues are involved is that Washington is not sure what role Nanyang will play - whether it is a defender of order or a destroyer of order.
In other words, allies, quasi-allies, or enemies.
For the United States, which is trying to establish a world order under the leadership of the United States, the enemy is not just another Soviet Union trying to establish a world order. The destroyers of order are also their enemies. Therefore, the United States needs to figure it out. at this point!
If Nanyang attempts to destroy the world order, no matter how hard they fight - they are still enemies. It is just the difference between now and the future.
"Indeed, the world today is different from the past. The establishment of the United Nations is actually to establish international rules-the world order of the weak and the strong has become a thing of the past! Nanyang..."
Looking at Cavell, Li Yian said.
"Nanyang has never had any territorial ambitions towards Siam and Malaya. The reason why we entered Siam is entirely for the free world!"
Li Yi'an smiled and looked at Ka Will said.
“For the benefit of the free world, we believe that Siam after restoring order should also join the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization and open military bases to the US military. For the benefit of the free world, I believe that the United States It is necessary and we must play a more active role in Siam and other places!”
If you want the United States to pay for the aftermath, then let others come in!
Moreover, Li Yi'an is very clear about the aftermath of the "Siam Crisis" and the diplomatic aftermath. Nanyang may be a hooligan, but he must not make enemies everywhere. A weirdo who offended all the five hooligans like Cardano in Libya can do it. He has survived into the twenty-first century because of his good fortune.
So, the relationship with the United States must be improved, and it is even more important now than before, because Nanyang was like a little sheep before, but now it is showing off its muscles. If this muscle is not brightened, it may become a problem. become an enemy.
Nanyang can be a destroyer of order, but for now, it can only be a destroyer of Soviet order, but at the same time it is also a defender of world order, and of course it is the free world!
Therefore, inviting the United States to Siam not only involves the further development of South American relations, but is also based on long-term considerations.
During the Cold War, the team was so difficult. If you were not careful, you might become the enemy of the two superpowers.
At this time, you need to be more careful.
“America!”
The sudden arrival of candy directly stunned Cavell. Even as a professional diplomat, it took him a while to adapt before he was a little surprised. said.
"Sir, are you inviting the United States to station in Siam?" This invitation was so unexpected that it made Cavell feel a little weird - when did Nanyang become so generous?
Washington has never thought about this at all, taking food from the mouths of gangsters?
Is it possible?
But the problem is, they have brought all the plates!
And he asked enthusiastically - Do you want to eat? Do you want to eat?
“Is it setting up a military base in Siam?”
"This is a matter between you and Siam. They are an independent country."
Seeing Cavell's look of surprise, Li Yian continued:
"Just like I did before What he said - Nanyang entered Siam for the benefit of the free world, and the United States entered Siam to better safeguard the interests of the free world!"
Li Yi'an, who seemed to be looking solemn, was saying this! When he said this, he was sneering in his heart.
Standing on the shoulders of historical giants, he knows better than anyone else how much the United States hopes to enter Siam, or the Indochina Peninsula. Although the current United States has not repeatedly emphasized it like the imaginative Kennedy, ——The focus of the U.S. global strategy should not be in politically stable Europe, but in regions such as Asia, Africa and Latin America, because this has become the "main battlefield" for the United States to compete with the Soviet Union. Therefore, the United States must spare no effort to prevent the Soviet Union from controlling these areas.
Therefore, the United States refused to sign the Geneva Agreement last year, and began to replace France in supporting the South Vietnamese government and directly intervene in Vietnamese affairs.
And began to provide a large amount of economic and military assistance to the South Vietnamese regime, and will gradually expand the degree and scope of military intervention in the future.
In this case, of course they were eager to enter Siam, and then use Siam as the center to prevent the Soviet Union from expanding in Indochina.
To a large extent, what the United States is doing is beneficial to Nanyang. When the United States shares all the pressure on the Indochina Peninsula, Nanyang can not only develop its own economy, but also find talents around the world. Become an old friend with the potential of an old friend. After the United States tries its best to subvert those countries, Nanyang's capital can enter those areas, control their economies, and take control of their wealth.
As for Indochina, those who can do more work should let the United States worry about it first!
As for whether it will attract wolves into the house?
Li Yian was not worried about this problem at all. After all, it was the United States that withdrew from Southeast Asia in despair. Vietnam is a sad place for the United States!
After Vietnam, the United States, which once claimed to be the number one in Blue Star, finally ushered in a period of strategic contraction. It was also at that time that they understood what the Cold War was and how it should be Win the Cold War!
And they have been taking this class for almost twenty years and spent hundreds of billions... If they encounter such a big enemy, if they don't take advantage of him, can they be worthy of him?
Knowing people but not their hearts, Cavell was in extreme shock. He didn’t even know how to describe his mood at this time. He even thought of Washington’s secret cable-asking him to confirm Nanyang's role - ally or enemy!
Where is the enemy here!
Even the closest allies are nothing more than this!
"Your Excellency, I feel that something is not true!"
When he said these words, Cavell even felt that Washington was simply a villain - Nanyang for the sake of the free world The interests are all being played rogue in front of the whole world!
But what about the result?
People here just conquered Siam, and over there they gave Siam to the United States with both hands!
Where can I find such a powerful and even selfless ally?
"Haha, Mr. Ambassador, we are indeed having a conversation now! And, just like I said before..."
Looking at Cavell with an incredible face, Li Yi'an said.
“Everything Nanyang does is to defend the interests of the free world!”
What does it mean to judge a gentleman’s belly with a villain’s heart!
Now, Cavell finally understands!
I finally understand this sentence, and of course I also understand the unfounded worries of those in Washington.
"Your Excellency, now I finally understand why many people call Nanyang a good friend of the free world."
Now besides compliments, what else can Cavell say?
