Chapter 206 Strategy in Siam (Second update, please subscribe)

Just as the fighting and construction in Borneo were proceeding step by step.

The situation on the Asian battlefield has undergone some changes. The Allied forces that recovered Rangoon began to launch an attack on the Malay Peninsula. And the US military occupied Okinawa.

At the same time, the "White Tower Operation Plan" proposed and formulated by Wedemeyer also entered the implementation stage. That is, after the entire province of Guangxi was liberated, the army that broke into Guangdong began to launch a counterattack against Guangzhou, the largest metropolis in South China. With the successive defeats of the Japanese army, the liberation of Guangzhou is imminent.

This also means that the United States can extend its supply lines to the coast through the Philippines, so that supplies no longer need to go through the dangerous hump route or the winding Sino-Indian highway, but can land directly from the ports in Guangzhou.

This is also good news for Borneo - laborers recruited from the country no longer need to detour through Siam, and can directly take the US military transport ship transporting supplies back to Borneo, which only requires a little public relations. Can.

But what about Siam?
  In order to contain the Japanese army, the "Free Thai Uprising" planned by the Allied Intelligence Department will still be launched as scheduled.

and then?
  What did the tens of thousands of compatriots who launched the uprising gain?
  Nothing in return!

They sacrificed themselves in vain, shed blood, and then fell into silence, and that was it.

Is this their fate?
  And this also forced Li Yian to make a choice, whether to sit back and watch all this happen, or continue to implement the plan.

After all, there was no longer any need to transport labor through Siam.

After silently calculating in his heart for a whole day, Li Yian kept hesitating and thinking.

What are you thinking about?
  Of course, after launching "Operation Iron Fist", Li Yian is very confused about the possible political consequences. He even wants to ask the system for help... Unfortunately, this system is not a deduction system and cannot directly deduce the future like the opening deduction and American Tycoon. Seize the future.

It wouldn't be like now, where it would be impossible to predict the future.

Facing the unknown future, people will always be worried! Especially when the strength is weak.

Standing by the window, Li Yi'an smoked silently and stared at the public office garden in the dusk. At this time, the reason why he was so hesitant was, to put it bluntly, because Borneo's own strength was too weak and he had no ability at all. Participate in the geopolitical game.

A geopolitical game that is overestimated may end up playing out in the end.

"It's a bit difficult!"

Sighing, although he knew the danger, Li Yian knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Turn Siam into another country of its own people!
  Is there anything more wonderful than this?

That is definitely a future worth looking forward to. After all, this is something that has never happened in the past.

"army……"

Thinking of this, Li Yian raised the corners of his mouth and sneered.

"Then let's destroy your roots first!"

Finally, near midnight, Li Yian made his decision.

It's just that there have been some changes from the special operations plan planned by Skorzeny.

……

Li Guoren, who was sitting on a small fishing boat, looked at the rice fields on both sides of the river with a vague expression of excitement.

Enter the enemy territory and receive a special mission!
  This is simply... seeking death.

But why are you so excited?

Can you be excited!
  Throughout the ages, several people have had the opportunity to create a country with their own hands, and even choose a head of state with their own hands.

Now, the opportunity is at hand.

"I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect it..."

What didn't Li Guoren expect?
  He never imagined that his trip to the police station would allow him to meet people who would change his life, nor did he imagine that one day he would leave London and come to that ungrateful place in Borneo.

What for?
  Isn't it for today?

Today is an opportunity. If it succeeds, it will definitely make a mark in the history books in the future!
  While he was thinking about it in his mind, the ship docked, and someone was already coming to greet him from the shore.

"Mr. Li, is the journey going smoothly?"

The visitor is Ding Yun, the head of the Chongqing intelligence station in Bangkok. Some plans will be opposed by some and supported by others, and Ding Yun belongs to the latter. After learning about Borneo's thoughts from Chen Cang, he supported them with both hands. After all, being on the front line, he knew clearly what kind of sacrifices those Chinese had made in order to resist Japan, and they deserved to be rewarded.

"It was pretty smooth. The submarine was sent to the open sea and then we boarded the ship directly. The journey was uneventful." "It's good to be able to take the sea route. When we came here, we all climbed over mountains and ridges. , there was a lot of trouble along the way..."

Ding Yun said as he led Li Guoren into the car. When he got to the car, he said.

"Mr. Li, we have made an appointment with Mr. Chen. The time to meet is tonight..."

The Mr. Chen he refers to is Billy Phanonrong. The "Free Thai Movement" he convened almost became the second government of Siam. From royal concubines, cabinet ministers, and police chiefs to patriotic Chinese businessmen, intellectuals, and anti-Japanese comrades, they were all united under his command.

They attacked the Japanese army, collected intelligence, transported arms, and sent armed agents to receive Allied training before returning to Siam to prepare for the uprising. And Li Guoren came here this time to have contact with him.

The car was driving on the streets of Bangkok, and there seemed to be smoke coming from somewhere in the distance - it was the trace of the bombing.

Two days ago, more than 200 B24 bombers taking off from Yangon dropped nearly [-] tons of bombs on Bangkok. This was the heaviest bombing that Bangkok has suffered since the outbreak of the war. One-third of the city was hit. .

In the past two days, all cities in Siam have been bombed to varying degrees. On the surface, it seems that this is "bombing to promote change" and the Allied forces are trying to use bombing to force Siam to withdraw from the war.

But in fact, this is only [-] pounds.

With only twenty thousand pounds, several Allied staff officers could make corresponding plans to increase the intensity of the bombing of Siam, thus turning Siam into the Italy of the East.

This is just the reason in the drafted battle plan. And what is the real purpose?
  It is to intensify the pain that war brings to ordinary people in order to serve a more far-reaching purpose.

A few hours later, in a teahouse, Li Guoren met the target of his trip, a middle-aged man who was only forty-five years old.

Li Guoren asked as soon as the two met.

"Should I call you Mr. Phanomrong or Mr. Chen."

"In front of Thai people, I am Phanon Rong, and in front of Chinese people, I am Chen Jiaxiang."

The visitor replied.

"What would you rather do?"

"Chen Jiaxiang!"

Chen Jiaxiang answered directly.

"There are not many Chinese people who are willing to abandon their ancestors and change their names, but in order to survive, this is the only way...well, this is the only way!"

Chen Jiaxiang's answer made Li Guoren nod with satisfaction. What he didn't know was that in another world, the first order issued by Mr. Chen in front of him after he became the first post-war prime minister was to restore Siam. Luo's old country name was "Siam", which was the name of the country canonized by Zhu Yuanzhang, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty. In 39, Siam was renamed..., which was essentially related to its domestic Taitism.

The reason why Chen Jiaxiang returned it to its original name was to combat Thai Thaiism in Siam. However, he soon stepped down due to a military coup and had to go into exile in China.

Although this man has a Siamese name, he is still Chinese at heart.

After saying that, Chen Jiaxiang asked.

"I know who you represent. I just want to ask, what is your goal? Is it just limited to the uprising, or do you have a longer-term plan?"

Facing Chen Jiaxiang's rhetorical question, Li Guoren said.

"No, to be precise, it's what you want! Not our goal. After all, no matter how ambitious our goal is, you still need to implement it. If we can reach an agreement, believe me, the help we can provide, It will be far beyond your imagination.”

help!

He came here this time to help them, of course, not in the name of Borneo, but in another identity.

And the help provided will far exceed their imagination. The only question is, are they willing to go that far!
  This is the most crucial question.

"How far are you willing to go? This choice is now in your hands."

Faced with such a question, Billy couldn't help but fell into deep thought. After thinking for a long time, he spoke.

“We are willing to go very far, so far that many people may not be willing to support us.”

"That's not necessarily..."

It's like playing a charade, Li Guoren said.

"Just because others don't want to, doesn't mean we don't want to..."
