Feng Annan's promise was quickly fulfilled. Early the next morning, Qiu Zhiguo brought a large group of people to help the special forces build the camp.
At a glance, there may be as many as five or six hundred people.Among them are engineers and soldiers drawn from the local garrison, as well as some craftsmen who specialize in masonry and carpentry.Of course, the largest number are still the civilian husbands who have been transferred to work as laborers.These people all brought all kinds of tools by themselves, which saved a lot of time for the special forces.
"Master Qian, I can only recruit so many people in a hurry, and I hope I can help. If it is not enough, then we will think of a way later." After seeing Qian Tiandun, Qiu Zhiguo took the initiative to report his intention to come .
Qian Tiandun thanked Qiu Zhiguo, and then told Gao Qiaonan: "There are so many new helpers here, you arrange the tasks well, and don't worry about their food and drink wages."
Gao Qiaonan responded, knowing that Qian Tiandun was unwilling to owe this favor.In fact, in his opinion, Qiu Zhiguo's actions were indeed a bit snobbish, and he had to wait until he had something to say before starting to move.
Gao Qiaonan led the advance team of the Special Forces Division to Cam Ranh Port for a while, and met Qiu Zhiguo twice during the period, and the other party's attitude could only be regarded as lukewarm.Qiu Zhiguo still cooperated with the special warfare division's request for material support, but never offered to assist the special warfare division in building a camp.
Obviously, Feng Annan's statement yesterday had an effect. Qiu Zhiguo and others acted overnight after receiving the order, and they were able to gather hundreds of people so quickly.
However, Takahashi Nan would not be dissatisfied with Qiu Zhiguo because of this. The two sides had no friendship in the past. As the local civil affairs officer of Jinlan Port, he really had no obligation to help the special forces division.For this kind of thing, it is duty not to help, and it is love to help, so there is nothing to complain about.
Qian Tiandun didn't have time to stay here to supervise the work, he had to continue to discuss with Yan Chujie and others how to advance and implement his huge plan.
However, the protagonists of today's meeting were not Qian Tiandun, but three young military officers, Ha Jianzhong, Mu Zhennan and Wu Chengzhi.Feng Annan specially arranged for them to attend and explain the current situation in the South China Sea to Qian Tiandun.
As early as 1633, Haihan took the lead in forming the South China Sea Trade Alliance.This alliance not only includes many countries in the South China Sea Rim, but also has special members such as the Dutch East India Company.
Although this organization is named after the "Trade Union", it sounds like an international business organization, but in fact it also assumes a certain diplomatic role.The countries in the alliance follow the trade rules formulated by Haihan. When conflicts arise between countries, Haihan will also come forward to host negotiations and resolve conflicts.
Of course, sometimes Haihan will use his strong dominance in this region to maintain the delicate balance in the region.
For example, during the war between the Dutch East India Company and Mata Ram in 1636, both sides came to Haihan to buy arms from Haihan due to the shortage of weapons. East India Company.
The war between Annan and Champa also relied on Haihan's mediation, so that Champa, the weaker side, was able to preserve the country and not be destroyed by Annan.
During this period, there were also good-for-nothing people who wanted to challenge Haihan's authority over their own means, but the result can be imagined. In 1637, Haihan's heavy troops crossed to the east of Luzon Island, captured the city of Manila, which had been run by the Spaniards for more than half a century, and completely expelled it from the Luzon area.This old opponent who had been fighting with Hai Han for many years had been seriously injured since then, and it was difficult for him to compete with Hai Han in the South China Sea area.
But it is also the South China Sea Trade Alliance organized by Haihan that limits its external expansion to a certain extent.Going around, this one is a little brother, that one is a business partner, they are not easy to put down your face and do something.At most, it would be like Annan, through negotiation to establish settlements on its coast, or simply to draw out a natural port and hand it over to Haihan for management.
The only Spain that dared to sing against Haihan had already been driven to the Sulawesi Sea, two thousand miles south of Luzon.As long as the Spaniards didn't come to provoke them, Haihan wouldn't bother mobilizing troops to attack those small colonies with a population of only four figures from such a distance.
Of course, the relatively peaceful situation definitely has more advantages than disadvantages for Haihan.Thanks to the stability of the situation in the South China Sea, Haihan has established a huge trading system in the South China Sea in the past few years.
This system includes hundreds of commodities from the members of the South China Sea Trade Alliance. Haihan has also used this to promote the currency and financial settlement system issued by the country to all parts of the South China Sea. The far-reaching impact may be no less than launching a siege. total war.
In terms of military affairs, Haihan's main garrison bases are concentrated in Cam Ranh Port, Manila, and Sing Tao.
The Xingdao Garrison is the Ninth Army Division restructured from the former South China Sea Special Warfare Brigade under Roger's command, and the Third Detachment of the South China Sea Fleet.Stationed in Manila are the Fourth Army Division and the Fourth Detachment of the South China Sea Fleet.
However, because these places are far apart, these troops rarely have the opportunity to meet, let alone cooperate in combat.In recent years, there have been no large-scale wars in the South China Sea, so it is actually difficult to have a clear criterion for judging the actual combat effectiveness of these troops.
When Qian Tiandun heard this, he interjected and asked: "I remember that Roger's troops are very powerful. They fought against the British and Johor coalition forces in Xingdao and achieved good results. Later, they got the establishment of the South China Sea Independent Battalion. It is reasonable It is said that his army has an independent organization, so it does not need to be integrated into the army organization, so why was it changed to the Ninth Army Division?"
Yan Chujie replied: "Roger is capable, and his troops are not bad. The Ministry of National Defense reorganized his troops and re-given them the designation. The main reason is to consider the unity of the combat command system."
After hearing this, Qian Tiandun didn't continue to ask further questions, but he faintly felt that the matter was not that simple.
In the entire Haihan Army, there are only two units named after "Special Warfare", one formed by Qian Tiandun, and the other formed by Roger.These two troops, one from the south and the other from the north, guarded the border area of Haihan all the year round.
Roger's army is also an ever-victorious army in the South China Sea region. It has not suffered a defeat since its formation, and it stands to reason that it will not be canceled as an independent organization.The possibility that Qian Tiandun could think of was that this army had too few combat opportunities in recent years, and it was difficult to prove its level of strength, so it was changed by the Ministry of National Defense.
Of course, there may be other inside stories about this matter, but Qian Tiandun doesn't want to make wild guesses. Maybe he will know the real reason when he meets Roger in the future.
