As for who has made more enemies in the South China Sea, it is of course a Western colonial country from outside the region. Although Hai Han has shown a strong external performance, he is not even ranked among the top three in this list.
The process of Western countries such as Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands entering this region is essentially a routine of colonial armed invasion and then enclosure and autonomy.Of course, such behavior will not be recognized by the local rulers, so armed conflicts will inevitably break out, and the relationship between the colonial area and neighboring countries will not be much better.
The Dutch city of Batavia was originally the city of Jakarta under the rule of Banten Kingdom, while the Portuguese city of Malacca originally belonged to the historical Kingdom of Malacca.In order to obtain these two cities guarding the main sea routes, they used war methods in unison. The Portuguese invasion even directly led to the destruction of the Kingdom of Malacca.
But the temporary victory does not allow them to enjoy the results safely. The wars surrounding these two cities have never stopped intermittently. Not only the original owners who want to seize these two cities, but also neighboring countries who are jealous of their subsequent development.
The city of Batavia was almost captured by the army from Matalam in 1632. Although it passed through in the end, the damage caused by the war to the city still greatly delayed its development speed, causing the Dutch to suffer huge losses. .
Although the past few years have been relatively peaceful, everyone knows that this is just a quiet period before the outbreak of the next war—if it were not for Haihan's mediation, the war against the Western colonists would have broken out again.
Of course, Haihan's mediation was not out of pure goodwill, but mainly to keep the trade channels between Haihan and these two countries unimpeded, so as to use their channels to sell Haihan's products to the Middle East and Europe.
It is not easy to maintain peace, but if you want to provoke the flames of war, it cannot be easier for Haihan.
Haihan didn't even need to take a stand, just relaxing the restrictions on arms exports to the countries surrounding these two cities was enough to make the Portuguese and the Dutch sleepless.The deeds of the Matalan people bringing a wagonload of gold to Fort Victory to buy weapons may happen again at any time.
Based on the existing armed forces of these two cities alone, they may not be able to defeat the indigenous army with superior military strength and fully equipped with Haihan weapons.
Thomas and Su Keyi are actually not afraid of Schneider exposing their old background. You, Haihan, are just like me. Everyone is playing colonialism, and no one can say how clean they are in this regard.But Schneider brought up the topic of safety issues, so he couldn't just fool around. If Haihan recklessly used some gray tricks, it would really cause them big trouble.
Su Keyi quickly responded: "Of course we recognize Haihan's role in maintaining regional stability. The peace situation in the South China Sea today is hard-won, and we should all cherish it."
Thomas also quickly corrected his position: "We are not questioning Haihan, but just advocating peace. I think no one should want to see war break out in the South China Sea."
Schneider felt their attitude loosen, and said with a sneer: "Whether the South China Sea is peaceful or not depends on the attitudes of the countries present here. Those who wish for peace will have peace. Those who do not want peace will of course get the results they want. .”
Schneider's implication is that those who are willing to get along well with Haihan can have peace.But if you want to play tricks with Hai Han, it may be regarded as giving up peace by Hai Han, so don't blame others when you are beaten in the future.
The vast majority of the ambassadors from various countries who participated in today's meeting are not stupid. They are willing to come forward today because someone is leading the organization. It doesn't matter if you have a date or not. way, to get some benefits from Hai Han.
However, none of the moves they had planned in advance seemed to have the expected effect in front of Schneider. Instead, they were defeated by the opponent's combo of moves.
Thomas and Su Keyi, the two leading brothers, seemed to have no better way to save the situation. The weakness and compromise in the tone could be heard as long as they were not deaf.
What joint petition, united front, agreed in advance to maintain a tough attitude, must force Haihan to make concessions, but without knowing it, Schneiderwald dismissed it and turned it into a mess.
Those who take the lead have softened, and if they continue to speak hard at this time, the only effect it can play is to attract firepower.Schneider has made it very clear, who would dare to take the initiative to claim the "people who do not want peace" in his mouth.
Ambassador Mata Languo took the lead in rebelling against the water: "There are sayings in Haihan, and the truth becomes clearer as you debate it. After everyone's explanations just now, the facts are already very clear. The stability of the South China Sea cannot be achieved without the participation of Haihan. Military operations in the region cannot be simply defined as external expansion.”
Schneider nodded slightly with a smile on his face, probably very satisfied with Ambassador Mataram's statement.
Although some people will definitely criticize Ambassador Ma Talam for being capricious and unscrupulous in their hearts, some people think that it is the smartest way to change their position at this time.
Sure enough, several ambassadors from small countries jumped out to agree, thinking that some of the demands in the petition were indeed unreasonable, and they signed the petition because they were deceived by others.
The wall is falling and everyone is pushing. If you don't seize the opportunity to express your attitude at this time, it's almost like sitting still and waiting to die.Schneider may not be able to remember who has the most sincere attitude of repentance, but whoever does not express at this juncture is too conspicuous.
So everyone said that the previous request was a misunderstanding of Hai Han, and now everyone has clarified the problem face to face, hoping that Hai Han can continue to play the role of the magic needle in the South China Sea.
Thomas and Su Keyi looked at each other and could only smile wryly in return.
These countries in the South China Sea are all ignorant of the wind. When they saw that the wind direction was wrong, they immediately changed their faces.I wanted to count on joining forces with them to deal with Hai Han, but in the end this group of mobs still failed to hold their ground, and the matter so far has come to naught.
"Since you have no other opinions, let's stop here for today. But I still want to remind everyone that the current stability in the South China Sea is not easy to come by. Don't be tempted by others to stand on the opposite side of our country. Yes Be a friend of our country, or choose to be an enemy of our country, the right to choose is in your hands, so be careful."
Schneider saw that this group of people couldn't make a bigger wave, so he didn't pursue it anymore, but he still had to knock a few words, lest these people forget how much they have after they leave this door.
The process of Western countries such as Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands entering this region is essentially a routine of colonial armed invasion and then enclosure and autonomy.Of course, such behavior will not be recognized by the local rulers, so armed conflicts will inevitably break out, and the relationship between the colonial area and neighboring countries will not be much better.
