Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation It was clear that Shin Myung Province was going to attack the Philippines.
The Philippines wanted to attack Shin Myung Province, but it was a bit like a dog biting a porcupine. There were only a few ships in total, and the distance between them and Xin Ming was more than three thousand kilometers. It was obviously impossible for those Filipino monkeys to swim over. The Filipino president, Siji Luo, only shouted twice on TV and did not say anything else.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Shin Myung Province informed the American Embassy in Shin Myung Province to ask them to withdraw their citizens and troops. Otherwise, if they attacked, Jiang Long 19 would not know who was American, and it would hurt their relationship. The Americans asked if Shin Myung Province had to fight. The people of Shin Myung Province asked if someone stole something from their president, what would they do? The Americans replied, "Our way is to take it back and ask for compensation." The people of Shin Myung Province said, "Our way is slightly different from yours. Our attitude is that if something is dirtied, we won't take it back, but we will use other things to pay for it, such as land that we like." The Americans asked how much land would satisfy them, and the people of Shin Myung Province said, "Luzon is about the same." The Americans shrugged and thought that the people of Shin Myung Province were dreaming. The people of Xin Ming told the Americans that if they bombed that place without notifying them, they would be held responsible if their people were killed. If they did not leave after notifying them, it would be their fault if their people were killed. The Americans did not know what logic this was. They thought about it for a long time but still could not understand.
The conversation was spread to all sides through irregular channels, and the attitudes of all sides were very different. But there was one thing that everyone agreed on, and that was that the people of Shin Myung Province were insatiably greedy for land. This time, Luzon was probably doomed.
The Americans began to evacuate, and their main military facilities were moved to Guam. The Americans knew that the people of Shin Myung Province were unreasonable. The problem was that the Shin Myung Province's Qinglong 19 was not big, it was fast, and it was too powerful to deal with. Before they found a way to deal with Qinglong 19, they did not want to lower themselves to the level of the people of Shin Myung Province.
The Japanese also began to evacuate, and all the factories in the Philippines were moved to Fu Nan Dongfang Industrial Zone. Chen, Chen Weizheng was a little bit suspicious, that the reason why the barge was sent was to send more people to Fu nan Dongfang. Chen Weizheng Translation.

In the 5th month, the Filipinos living in Luzon also began to evacuate. This was because there was news that the Kra Isthmus had been cleared, allowing the Dayou class destroyer to pass through and enter Longguang Harbor. The Longguang Shipyard modification project was in full swing. A Japanese ship was transporting the electronics of the Dayou class destroyer to Longguang City. The ship that delivered the electronics would also be modified in Longguang City. The modified ship would be stationed in Longguang City (Sihanouk City) and be incorporated into the navy of Shin Myung Province to provide logistical support for the Fusan Dongfang Industrial Zone.
If nothing went wrong, in the 9th month, the modification of the Dayou class destroyer would be completed. The Dayou class destroyer was already named the Tanggula Mountain. The two frigates, two submarines, and a supply ship that were purchased from China were already in place. The Tanggula Mountain was fully equipped.
The scariest thing was that the modified Bayan Kera had also entered Danang through the Kra Isthmus. At the same time, China's Northeast had also left its nest and came to Zhanjiang Harbor. If the four carrier groups attacked Luzon at the same time, there would still be a Dayou at the side. Luzon would receive a devastating blow. If they did not run, then they would be stupid.
Siji Luo panicked. He found many connections to pass the message to Shin Myung Province and hanged a few robbers in front of everyone. He also asked the Americans to send the sailboat model to Longshan City. Shin Myung Province people did not accept the sailboat model, saying that it was tainted and could not enter the palace. As for the robbers who were hanged, they were their own people. They could kill them however they wanted, and no one would blame them if they did not kill them.
6th month, 1st day, the Kra Isthmus was officially opened to traffic.
Shin Myung Province was very low-key, but Longshan Bank was very high-profile. It was decorated with lanterns and colored banners, and the whole world was fooled. They boasted that a small canal was more important than the Suez Canal, and that it was the highway of the 21st century. Chen Weizheng also felt that they were exaggerating a little too much. It made everyone confused whether this road belonged to Shin Myung Province or Longshan Bank. However, some parameters were very clear. The entire canal was very wide. It was not the 400 meters in the design, but an astonishing 600 meters. Any ship with a waterline of 25 meters or less could pass through this canal easily. At the two ends of the canal, two seaside cities were being built. These cities belonged to Longshan Bank, and they mainly served shipping. China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan were very supportive of the opening of the canal. From the day it was opened, all ships no longer passed through Malacca, and all went through the Kra Isthmus.
Shin Myung Province was the most satisfied. The opening of the Kra Isthmus made navigation much more convenient. As a peninsular country, creating benefits through the canal was secondary. It was really convenient to have a back door at home.
It was unknown whether they wanted to embarrass the Kra Isthmus or help it become famous, but the Singaporeans did something that no one in the world expected. They allowed their Magellan to pass through the Kra Isthmus with a full load. The Magellan was known as the giant of the water. This ship was nearly 500 meters long, 70 meters wide, and 600,000 tons of sea behemoth. It was obviously used for stepping on plates. Its waterline was 24.6 meters, which was almost the limit of the Kra Isthmus.
Whether the ship was allowed to pass or not, it was reported to the higher-ups. Finally, it came to Chen Weizheng's office. Chen Weizheng made the final decision and allowed it to pass.
The day the Magellan passed through, it was very lively. The world's media gathered.
In the temporary management office of the Kra Isthmus, Chen Weizheng and a few major shareholders of Longshan Bank sat together. The general manager, Zhou Chongwen, told Chen Weizheng that he was not confident. If it was really stuck in the middle, it would be embarrassing.
Chen Weizheng told Zhou Chongwen that it would not be stuck.
Chen Weizheng knew what Zhou Chongwen was worried about. Twenty-seven kilometers east of the main waterway of the Krathi Gorge, there was a huge rock. Because of this huge rock, the opening of the canal was delayed for a month. In the end, under Chen Weizheng's approval, the operation was forced through. This rock was about 150 meters long, 60 meters wide, and 15 meters high. It was very hard. They used many methods, but they could not blast the rock open. They wanted to use a tugwheel to drag the rock away, but they could not find such a big rope. Because of this rock, the navigation depth of the canal was limited to 25 meters. If they could solve this rock, the navigation depth of the canal could be more than 30 meters. In the current shipping industry, it was basically impossible.
The Singaporeans were here to step on the stage, not to support them.
The ship had arrived at the west entrance of the Kra Isthmus. Chen Weizheng and the others had never seen such a huge ship. Although it was not too tall because it was fully loaded, its unparalleled length made people respect it. Chen Weizheng and the others were used to seeing large aircraft carriers. The Himalayas was 80 meters wide, and in terms of deck width, it was wider than this ship. However, this ship was straight up and down, like a big barrel, and appeared to be much thicker. If this ship were to clash with the Himalayas, it would definitely be the Himalayas that would be the one to feed the fish.
The captain of the Magellan, a very bored Nordic, held a press conference at the west entrance of the canal. He said a lot of nonsense, but there was one sentence that was useful. The ship was old and should be replaced. This time, he wanted to find a spendthrift to pay for it. Shin Myung Province was rich, and the whole world knew that. Just by selling the sky jeeps, they earned more than one or two cents. Therefore, to let Shin Myung Province pay for the replacement was a good thing for the people. It also satisfied everyone's psychological desire to kill the rich to help the poor.
After that, he handed the steering over to the captain of the Kra Isthmus Management Company. It could be seen that the Kra Isthmus Management Company's captain's hands were shaking, and his legs were moving sideways. Under the big cap, there was white sweat. This was an old Vietnamese captain. His surname was Nguyen, and his name was Nguyen Wenxiang. He was in his fifties. He was known for his high standards and was very dedicated. He had rowed all the places in the Kra Isthmus in a small boat. In his eyes, the canal was like the wrinkles on his hands. Today, it was obvious that he was not confident.
Chen Weizheng asked the navigator to call him. The navigator told Chen Weizheng that Captain Nguyen had studied in Dalian, China, and his Chinese was very good. They could talk directly in Chinese.
Chen Weizheng smiled and said, "I only know how to speak Chinese. I don't know how to speak other languages."
He connected the call to Captain Nguyen. From the monitor, Captain Nguyen took out his phone and answered the call.
"Hello!" Captain Nguyen's voice was shaking.
"I'm Chen Weizheng, the King of Shin Myung Province, Chen Weizheng. Do you know who I am?" Chen Weizheng asked.
The other party obviously thought for a while before coming back to his senses. He stood at attention and said respectfully, "Hello, King!"
"I'm calling you to tell you two things. First, you just have to drive forward and don't take the wrong route. Second, don't worry about that stone. I'll take responsibility if it damages the boat. "
"Yes!" Not only did Nguyen not relax, but he also became more nervous.
"Don't be nervous!" Chen Weizheng said, "There aren't many opportunities to drive such a big boat. You have to enjoy it! Just treat the canal as the center of the Pacific Ocean. "
"Your Majesty, I know what to do. I'm just a little worried. I took a look. This boat is full of stone sand, and it weighs more than 800,000 tons. The other party obviously wants to sink the boat here. If this boat sinks in the canal, the canal won't be able to operate normally for at least a year. This is the other party's purpose. "Nguyen Wenxiang said.
"No problem. You don't have to worry. Just drive forward. We're very lucky. This kind of trick can't fool us. I'll hold the red wine and wait for you to drive the boat through the canal. " Chen Weizheng said very casually, "Damn it. Since he wants to sink, I'll find a place for him to sink. It's not like this boat hasn't sunk before."
After talking to Chen Weizheng for a while, Nguyen Wenxiang's heart calmed down. His breathing also became smoother, and his hands became smoother at the helm. The huge hull of the ship also became cute under his hands.
The boat moved forward meter by meter. After two hours, the boat was 27 kilometers away. Nguyen Wenxiang knew that the big stone was just ahead. 100 meters, 50 meters, 20 meters, 10 meters. He painfully closed his eyes.
A second passed, a minute passed, and the expected collision didn't happen. The boat was still moving forward steadily. Nguyen Wenxiang calmed down and checked the location again. There was no mistake. According to the GPS, the boat was now moving on the big stone. The boat's draft was 27 meters. It had already eaten more than a meter into the big stone. How was this possible!
