Yes, Prime Minister of Japan
Page 922
"We must reform the electoral system. The emperor has a special status as the first citizen and the first head of state, but it is somewhat unreasonable for other orders to continue as usual. Therefore, we will start by adjusting the legal powers of various departments."
The Black magician was the first to adjust, stirring up a parliament and government that were even more chaotic than the economy and finances.
Under Obama's powerful leadership, he produced a comprehensive outline of government and parliamentary reforms in just a few days, much of which drew inspiration from the Japanese model that Li Xinghe was revising, since Japan is also a monarchical democracy.
Under the new framework, many of Vance's outrageous and erratic behaviors were corrected, the power of local councils was weakened, the practice of local governments withholding tax revenue was prohibited by law, and the newly occupied Canada was divided into several states such as Quebec and Ontario, officially gaining official status as a United States.
Although order remains chaotic, a glimmer of hope has finally appeared.
This was called the 'Obama Order'.
Although Vance hated being given this title, he finally had time to go to the hospital for a few days to rest and recover his miserable prostate.
At the victory celebration, many people praised Obama for having "magician's hands".
Obama was more clear-headed than others.
He said:
"As everyone should know, the most urgent task in foreign trade and the international order is to immediately sign a historic agreement with Japan to redefine the US-Japan relationship. You must be aware that the core objective among the countless goals pursued by Li Xinghe is to resolve Japan's historical status as a defeated nation. However, the methods he adopts are very peculiar. He wants to completely destroy Japan's old history, culture, and traditions, and rebuild a new nation called the 'Greater China Federation'—a pan-Chinese cultural sphere—on the ruins of what is called Japan. This may be one approach, but it can probably only be used on him."
"why?"
Actually, Vance doesn't quite understand this point.
I don't know why this is being done, nor do I understand the difference between the Greater China Federation and Japan.
Obama doesn't really understand either, but he spent his childhood in Indonesia, which is being dismantled by Li Xinghe, so his understanding of Eastern culture is slightly better than Vance's: "Because he is of Chinese descent. What he did was like a Frenchman running for president in Germany and then transforming Germany into the historical 'Frankenstein,' making them forget their German history so that they can escape the historical deadlock of 'saying patriotism is the same as supporting Hitler.'"
Obama used a very apt analogy, which was enough to make many Europeans understand Li Xinghe's national development strategy.
But Americans are different; they lack both intelligence and historical knowledge.
Some people wondered: "But Germany does want to forget its German history, and didn't they allow von der Leyen, an American, to be the leader of the European Union?"
"This way you'll gain Li Xinghe's support? After we've been hostile to each other for so long?"
In short, cultural differences made it difficult for Vance to understand, but his elite education at a prestigious university allowed him to roughly grasp Obama's line of reasoning.
"can."
The black magician nodded very affirmatively.
He knew that this was Li Xinghe's ultimate policy goal.
In fact, Obama's new diplomatic strategy is still quite crude.
Moreover, Li Xinghe's side did not come up with any specific measures.
But we can't really call it the 'Greater China Federation', can we?
At that time, the map will show a mainland China, a maritime China, and a "China" with "Great China" next to it. It will look like a parody map of some game or a business map of some company.
For example, Mixue Ice Cream.
Obama also spoke eloquently, showcasing his personal charisma and drawing everyone to listen to him:
"In terms of realpolitik, our main contradiction is still the Philippines."
The core of the real conflict lies with the Philippines.
With the Pentagon shifting its allegiance to Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, and Singapore already under Li Xinghe's control, it is determined to retain the Philippines' last naval base at Subic Bay.
If the United States were to renegotiate its historical relationship with Li Xinghe at this time, would the United States actually withdraw from Southeast Asia?
If the aircraft carrier is withdrawn from the Philippines, who will be responsible for the changes in the Philippines' political landscape and the subsequent political turmoil?
Will the Pentagon agree? Will the Pacific Command agree to so easily abandon its most fortified position?
These are all problems.
However, most people were just there for the fun of it, so they asked jokingly:
"What about Indonesia?"
It sounds strange, but everyone is laughing at Obama.
This young man grew up there and speaks fluent Indonesian. His impression of Jakarta has always been that of his childhood home. Seeing the current state of Indonesia, will Obama feel saddened?
Obama made the sign of the cross on his chest:
"Well, God bless it."
Everyone was a bit tense. Obama, true to his chameleon nature, actually said something like that.
As is well known, Indonesia is an Islamic country.
……
The distant East.
Or, to put it another way, the distant west of the United States.
In Tanjung Pinang, Riau Islands, a capital city where Chinese people make up nearly 65% of the population, a large group of white American soldiers, with Chinese flags draped over their shoulders, are having a meeting in a pub.
The Han Kuang Volunteer Army also participated in this operation. They also decided to open a 10,000-mile tourist route in Southeast Asia and ordered tourist boats and armed escort vessels specifically for the Han Kuang Volunteer Army, allowing tourists to experience the wonderful fun of live-fire target practice at sea.
But what's the next step?
The major island groups at sea have already been occupied; the next step is to attack the larger islands.
But the Southern Command made it very clear:
"No, we have strict orders forbidding us from conducting large-scale landing operations. Our goal is national self-determination, understand?"
However, there was one military unit that had not received orders and was not part of the Southern Command.
That is naturally...
Han Kuang Volunteer Army!
This unusual military group, composed of white people, is currently directly under the Chinese Coast Guard, but in reality, they don't really have much control over it. After all, it's well known that this team's main business is live streaming, product sales, and tourism promotion.
"Although the Southern Command's regular troops won't land, we can. We have the support of the entire nation."
Adam Wilim set his sights on a large island in Indonesia.
Borneo is the largest island in Asia.
This is what is commonly known as Kalimantan.
Like Papua, this tropical rainforest has a vast area of 700,000 to 800,000 square kilometers, but a very small population. For example, the Indonesian-controlled Kalimantan region has only a little over ten million residents, and the Javanese population there is small, only about 2.5 million. The remaining millions are mainly Chinese, indigenous people, and Malays.
Indonesia placed its new capital on the island of Kalimantan in an attempt to develop the local economy and increase immigration. However, with the rise of the military government, the establishment of the new capital was delayed. The ceded land, however, exacerbated tensions between the Javanese and the indigenous population.
Although Indonesia has established five Kalimantan provinces in the east, west, south, north, and central regions, only West Kalimantan, the site of the legendary Lanfang Republic and the former Pontianak Sultanate, has a large Chinese population.
This region has four million residents, of whom over one million are officially registered as Chinese. However, it is well known that ethnic registration in Indonesia is quite arbitrary and oppressive towards Chinese, suggesting that the actual number of unregistered Chinese is likely much higher.
When Adam Vilim discussed the matter with the high-ranking officers of the Han Kuang Volunteer Army, West Kalimantan was mentioned:
"Wow, while exploring the European continent, we unexpectedly discovered that the core area of the Lanfang Republic is here! Therefore, our Han Guang Volunteer Army has decided to carry forward the spirit of Chinese people venturing overseas and re-establish the Lanfang Republic. Do you support us?"
Of course, this is purely a nonsensical reason. The Lanfang Republic was not as grand as later generations have exaggerated it to be. In a sense, it was even considered a regional organization by the Dutch, while the Chinese mainly governed the area through gangs and cooperative companies.
But the strange thing about this matter is that, because the Lanfang Republic represented a kind of spiritual aggregate of Chinese people who ventured to Southeast Asia in modern times, and had the democratic significance of being praised and resisting Chinese imperial power, it has been continuously and infinitely elevated by history enthusiasts, who have added non-existent bonuses such as national flag, national spirit, national strength, and a national military system. As a result, this act of almost inventing history has been reflected on the Internet, making it seem incredibly real.
Even historical fiction games like the European Wars and Victorian eras, which are not very rigorous, were added to it as a prelude to the Chinese people's democratic republic and development in Southeast Asia.
This spiritual reflection is pushed back from the internet into reality.
Since people need a Lanfang Republic, why not establish a real Lanfang Republic?
A Chinese community that controlled West Kalimantan, a land area of over 15 square kilometers, with its capital Pontianak and largest city Singkawangli, was filled with Chinese people. They voted for independence through national self-determination, and they certainly had the qualifications to do so.
The staff officers took out their computers and calculated the economic benefits:
“I simply can’t believe how many Chinese people would be willing to travel to Borneo with us if we opened up the Lanfang Republic tourism route.”
"We can get at least 100 billion RMB in tourism revenue."
"No, why not sell Lanfang Republic passports? We can directly recruit Chinese people to settle in Borneo. Once we sell 200 million Lanfang Republic passports, we'll have a way to expel the Javanese, expel their indigenous people, and then annex the entire Borneo to our territory. Uh, I mean, Lanfang Republic territory."
"The territory of Malaya is also inhabited by Chinese. Why not integrate Sarawak, Sabah, and Brunei in Malaya to establish a true Greater Lanfang Republic?"
"Are the tour guides needed for the tour ready?"
"Immediately place an order with Yiwu. We need the national flag, national charter, passports, and all kinds of brand-new military uniforms, traditional civilian clothes, and commemorative medals—the whole set! Our tourism revenue depends on these!"
It might be hard for outsiders to imagine that the online abstraction of the Lanfang Republic has been reflected in reality, actually due to tourism revenue.
People are collectively creating a non-existent country simply because they will come here to travel and spend money, pouring billions of RMB into this imagined land.
After careful calculation, the staff of the Han Kuang Volunteer Army was very pleased.
They have found a new source of economic growth.
Although the revenue will be shared with the Chinese Navy, the Chinese Coast Guard, and the Joint Forces.
They sang the military song chosen by the public vote again:
"We are pests! We are pests! Protectors of China! Protectors of China! We will defeat all enemies, we will annihilate all enemies!"
In a sense, the Han Kuang Volunteer Army is actually a rather extreme and concentrated reflection of the Chinese people's online mentality.
Chapter 904: Nanyang Lanfang Theme Park (5200 words)
West Kalimantan Province, Yamaguchi.
As the largest trading city in the province, it has a population of over 20. Their origins are quite unique, almost all of them being Hakka people from Hepo Town, Jieyang City, Guangdong Province. Hepo Town is the only area in the Chaoshan region where Hakka people mainly gather, and its overseas branches are very extensive, mainly consisting of Hakka immigrants from Hepo who went to Southeast Asia and Taiwan.
This population distribution, where entire regions originate from a single, less developed area, is a typical pattern of migration in southeastern coastal China. Guangdong and Fujian, as major provinces for immigration, have many cities and counties where the number of people living overseas far exceeds the number of people residing in their home regions.
Moreover, their ethnic groups originated from a single city, county, or even town. The differences between these ethnic groups are vast, and they often speak different languages. This is truly a unique phenomenon in China.
On this day, the Chinese in the economically depressed and chaotic areas of Singkawang and Pontianak watched in astonishment as a large group of white soldiers crossed the sea in assault boats and occupied the local towns.
The Indonesian army attempted to resist, but after losing over a dozen men to drone strikes, they fled in terror, migrating eastward from West Kalimantan to the eastern and central provinces to escape the fighting. It wasn't that they lacked combat capability, but rather that their pay hadn't been received for three months.
The Indonesian soldiers in Papua died in such a sorry state without receiving any compensation. If they died here, their deaths would have been in vain.
The local Chinese community speaks Hakka and has a basic understanding of Mandarin, so seeing the Han Kuang Volunteer Army carrying the national flag ashore for a flag-raising ceremony, first singing "The March of the Volunteers" and then military songs, was truly an eye-opener.
"We are pests! We are pests!" You're busy, I'm busy...
After the military songs were sung, the Han Kuang Volunteer Army searched for prominent local figures and began organizing a vote on national self-determination.
"Listen up! This is the homeland of the Lanfang Republic. We are going to rebuild Lanfang! Do you know what Lanfang is?"
In reality, the locals had little recollection of this event; instead, they were still haunted by the two anti-Chinese riots. Therefore, initial cooperation was not smooth, as they feared the Han Kuang Volunteer Army would arrive and then flee, bringing them further trouble.
The mayor of Yamaguchi-yang is Huang Shaofan, a local.
He had originally intended to run away today, but he was identified by the locals and taken to the Volunteer Army's staff headquarters.
Adam Wilim welcomed them with a hearty laugh:
"You're Huang Shaofan? Haha, congratulations! You're about to become the first president of the New Lanfang Republic."
In fact, Huang Shaofan, as a Chinese politician, actually supported Prabowo, given the extremely weak voice of the Chinese community in Indonesia. He even hosted Prabowo and demonstrated the traditional paper-making and ceramic-making techniques of the Singkawang Chinese community. But regardless of his own thoughts, the Anti-Justice Army was determined to have him represent them.
"I dare not... I really dare not..." Huang Shaofan tried to refuse.
"Don't you dare?"
Adam Vilim gave a wink to several burly male soldiers. Huang Shaofan was immediately dragged into a small dark room, where, after a barrage of "Thought-Free" punches, he immediately "deeply understood" what the Lanfang Republic Reconstruction Movement was, and "deeply repented" for his insolence and inappropriate remarks. He also "repented" and decided to use his reputation and fame to mobilize his family and relatives to participate in the "Lanfang Chinese Independence Movement."
After occupying Yamaguchi and Pontianak, and advancing eastward along the river to occupy places like Sintang, the Han Kuang Volunteer Army took only one night to almost subdue this vast rainforest with a population less than a city.
The General Staff of the Han Kuang Volunteer Army began its pre-independence propaganda campaign.
After being mobilized by politicians like Huang Shaofan, the local Chinese community gradually became more active and began to realize that they had reached a historical turning point. To motivate them, the Han Kuang Volunteer Army spent a considerable amount of money, almost buying up all the votes of the local Chinese community.
We definitely have to earn that money back.
So instead of focusing on fighting, a group of people in the General Staff were making videos for propaganda purposes.
A rather handsome young white man began rehearsing in front of the camera:
"Friend, how about learning about the Lanfang Republic passport? It represents the purest Hakka cultural traditions..."
The staff officers behind immediately interrupted:
"Are you mentally challenged? Who gave you the right to talk about the purest Hakka culture? Are you trying to provoke the local Chaoshan people?"
"We can't speak ill of the Chaoshan people. Although the Hakka people here all come from the Chaoshan region, they are not friendly ethnic groups to each other."
