    But they say that the Nanyang Navy has always been provided with weapons by China, and it is also equipped with a huge fleet. If there is a need, just give orders to China, and the wealth will not go to outsiders. Giving Ukraine US$100 million is somewhat worthless.  But Qi Yiming had many considerations. First of all, domestic shipyard production capacity is currently tight. Even if Nanyang wanted to order one, it would not be able to order one. Besides, buying a Chinese cruiser would definitely be extremely expensive.  If the base provides it for free, Qi Yiming feels that it is not worth it, because it will not produce any effect.

    After years of development, the economic growth rate of the Nanyang Republic is not much behind China. And because of its small population and abundant resources, the per capita GDP has exceeded 10,000 US dollars at this time, and it was already considered to be at the level of developed countries in the 1990s.  In these years, Qi Yiming continued to enrich the Chinese population in Nanyang through domestic immigration and base-based militia. At this time, the total population of Nanyang Republic had reached 3.46 million, and the proportion of Chinese had reached 8

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The Nanyang Republic¡¯s ability to become one of the developed countries within a few years is also related to the fact that it is a country dominated by Chinese? The Chinese are definitely not a superior race.  In order to attract Chinese talents, the Nanyang Republic established an immigration encouragement plan, which not only caused many local Chinese people to migrate to the Malay Peninsula or Borneo, but also caused many wealthy Chinese businessmen living in other Southeast Asian countries, and even Europe and North America, to migrate here.  Stimulated local investment

    After all, Nanyang is a small country, and its main economic industries include petroleum, tropical agriculture, agricultural product processing industry, rubber industry, tourism and financial industry.  Obviously, Nanyang's economy is very focused on tropical industries. Rubber, tropical fruits, rice, coffee, cocoa beans and other things that are rare in China have developed a lot. However, China's relatively strong manufacturing industries are relatively few in the local area, and some are also  Strongly complementary.

    Nanyang is a tropical archipelago country with pleasant scenery and climate. Later generations¡¯ travel routes to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand became popular all over the world. After Qi Yiming established the Nanyang Republic, he developed tourism as one of the pillar industries. Moreover, due to the Chinese society, the local security is far better than that of Malaysia and Thailand.  The area ruled by Indonesia is stable, and after investment and development of tourism resources, it immediately attracted tourists from many countries around the world to come here for vacation.

    In addition, Nanyang also implements preferential support policies for high-tech industries, which are mainly targeted at high-tech companies from Europe and the United States. In recent years, many European and American high-tech companies have also undertaken to set up parks in Nanyang.  This part is somewhat in competition with China's high-tech industry, but Qi Yiming believes that only with competition can progress be achieved.

    The rapid economic development has caused Nanyang, a country about one-tenth the size of China, to invest more than six billion US dollars in annual military expenditures, ranking within the 30th largest defense expenditure in the world. In fact, when the Republic of Nanyang was founded, it received all  Ming donated a large number of weapons and equipment, so the quantity that needs to be purchased is not too large.  The purchase of a Glorious-class cruiser is not the largest investment in military equipment in Nanyang in recent years.

    In 1988, the Nanyang Republic ordered 100 FB Xiaolong 20 fighter jets from AVIC, with a total contract value of US$260 million. As a result, the Nanyang Air Force expanded the Xiaolong fleet to 20 aircraft; in 1990, the Nanyang Republic in Tianjin  Chinese weapons with a total value of B600 million were ordered at the International Defense Exhibition, including 20 VT-IA urban warfare upgraded main battle tanks, 20 NIP multi-functional infantry vehicles, 48 ??Dongfeng-15 surface-to-surface missiles, and Z-6 hybrid  18 Jianglong heavy-duty helicopters, a submarine support ship and some other equipment; in 1991, the Nanyang Republic purchased 10,000-ton amphibious assault ships from China to enhance its anti-submarine capabilities and disaster relief capabilities. The cost of each ship was  With a cost of US$600 million, both ships will be built at domestic shipyards in Nanyang through technology transfer.

    It can be said that Nanyang Republic has been firmly occupying the second place among China's arms exporters. The first place is of course occupied by the wealthy Saudi Arabia.  Between the two Al-Yamaha agreements and some other scattered arms sales, Saudi Arabia orders an average of two to three billion U.S. dollars in weapons from China every year, while the Nanyang Republic has basically stabilized at an average of less than one billion U.S. dollars.

    Ranking behind Saudi Arabia and Nanyang is not China's main arms exporter, Pakistan, in another dimension. Pakistan's economic situation is not very good after all, so although it has a lot of military exchanges with China, the scale is not particularly large.  Especially after the last large-scale military aid, Pakistan Railway's demand for weapons has been relatively reduced, so the purchase volume is not large.

    Ranked third is actually the United States. The only well-known complete system purchased by the United States and China is the Al stealth attack aircraft. However, this order is US$7 to 8 billion, which shows that the United States is really not short of money.  Between military and civilian uses, China's Chujiao 6, Zhi, Zhi-15 and other helicopters are also relatively popular in the U.S. market.  And those military spare parts, such as electronic products, composite materials, and even parts secretly outsourced to China by U.S. defense contractors, have added up to a billion-dollar scale in recent years.

    What¡¯s interesting is that China has modeled its Blue Army Corps after the US military, and the United States has also purchased some weapons from China in the past two years and tried to build an imaginary enemy force that imitates China. It can be seen that the United States has not relaxed its vigilance against China.

    Talking about buying back to Nanyang RepublicRegarding the cruiser, there is no excuse for the Nanyang Republic to strengthen its naval power, because the waters of Southeast Asia have not been calm recently.  At the beginning of the year, a Malaysian fishing boat encountered an Indonesian gunboat while fishing in the Java Sea. Since there was no demarcation between Malaysia and India in this sea area, and Malaysia and India were at odds, the Indonesian gunboat immediately sank it.  The Indonesian fishing boat killed 17 Malaysian fishermen on board.

    The existence of Nanyang seems to have weakened the existence of Malaysia and Indonesia, but neither of these two countries was destroyed.  Malaysia lost most of the Malay Peninsula and North Borneo. The warlord Usman Sidi, who acted as a Red Alert spy, invaded Sumatra and occupied a large area of ??land. He established Southern Malaysia and cooperated with the Malaysian federal government.  The North Malaysia where he is located is fighting in a separate court.

    Indonesia also lost large islands such as Borneo and Sulawesi to the Southeast Asia, and Sumatra split into many countries such as Aceh, Minangkabau, Batak, and Bengkulu, and its strength was greatly reduced.

    After the establishment of the Nanyang Republic, peace and stability have basically been maintained. Although it is impossible for Malaysia and Indonesia to recognize the Nanyang Republic, Aceh, Batak and other countries have recognized Nanyang.  Malaysia and Indonesia seem to have become sworn enemies, probably because they both understand that it is impossible to defeat the Nanyang Republic, and they have the support of China, so they have no hope of regaining their homeland.

    But Indonesia is still dissatisfied with Malaysia for occupying a small half of Sumatra, so the two countries often exchange fire and conflict on the borders of South Sumatra and Lampung Province.

    The actual controller of Southern Malaysia is the warlord leader Sidi, and Sidi is actually a Red Alert spy working for Qi Yiming. Qi Yiming originally abandoned him in the three states of Southern Malaysia in order to attract some Malays in the country to defect.  , as for the life of the Malays there, he doesn't care at all.  Of course, Sidi has also completed the more important mission, which is to completely split Sumatra into several countries.  Sumatra has also become the place with the most island countries in the world due to one island and six countries.

    Qi Yiming has no good opinion of the Malays and Javanese, and he also intends to use Sidi to torture Malaysia and Indonesia and make them bleed.  After the independence of the Siberian Far East, some of the weapons in the arsenal were taken out and sold by Qi Yiming to Sidi's Southern Horse Army, and the Sidi armed forces, enriched by a large number of Soviet-made weapons, became stronger.

    After the incident of sinking a Malaysian fishing boat, Sidi declared that it would never be tolerated and instigated ethnic hatred in the country, which made many Malays habitually turn into thugs again, killing and robbing Indonesians (mainly Javanese and Sundanese) in southern Malaysia.  , Madura people, etc.).  After that, the South Malaysian Army also attacked the Indonesian Army posts on the border of Lampung Province, causing a large number of casualties to the Indonesian Army.

    Indonesian President Suharto was furious. Because of the bad relations between Malaysia and India, Indonesia stationed a large number of troops in Lampung Province. After the attack by the Southern Malaysian Army, the Indonesian army took serious action and crossed the border to attack the Southern Malaysian Army.  However, due to the relatively poor fighting skills and fighting will of the two countries and two armies, this stupid battle resulted in not many casualties, but a lot of escapes.

    The Southern Malaysian Army, which originally had superior weapons, did not fight satisfactorily, which made Sidi very unhappy. The general order he received from Qi Yiming was to keep quarreling with Indonesia. As for the specific details, Qi Yiming did not explain.  So the warlord leader used the "magic weapon" obtained from the Far East - Scud missiles.

    Two Scud missiles were launched from southern Malaysia, crossed the ocean, and attacked the Indonesian capital Jakarta on the island of Java.  The Indonesians were caught off guard, and two surface-to-surface missiles actually hit the city, causing the death and injury of thousands of Indonesian civilians.

    The missile attack on the city also caused serious concern around the world. Some countries condemned Sidi's actions. The United Nations and others also called for an immediate ceasefire and an end to harming civilians. However, no country actually jumped out to say that it would quell this incident.  A mindless war.

    After that, the war also spread to the sea. The Indonesian Navy and the Malaysian Navy conducted a naval artillery battle in the Java Sea like World War II.  Since the Indonesian Navy is equipped with some relatively large-tonnage ships, such as Tribal-class frigates and Riga-class frigates, the South Malaysian Navy is at a disadvantage, and ships have been damaged and sunk one after another.  But then the Storm Petrel-class frigates and Wasp-class missile boats that Sidi bought from the Far East Pacific Fleet also joined the battle, making the naval battle more intense.  The Indonesian Navy lacked anti-ship missiles, but the South Malaysian Navy did not. In the end, the Indonesian Navy was sunk by two frigates worth thousands of tons and was forced to withdraw from the battle.

    The naval battle on the Java Sea has caused some voices in Nanyang to strengthen its coastal defense. However, many Nanyang people do not know that the combined tonnage of the Maldives and India navies may be a fraction of that of the Nanyang navy.
