When the Sino-Indian conflict broke out a few years ago, everyone in the bureau suggested taking the opportunity to expand the territory in the Dongba area, but Tangcheng blocked it. If the Sino-Indian conflict broke out in the 1950s, Tangcheng would definitely have participated. However, now that it has entered the 1960s, Americans are already secretly supporting India. If they try to seize Indian territory at this time, they will inevitably attract American attention. Because of Tang Cheng's restraint, the Sino-Indian conflict came and went quickly, and the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom's inaction also surprised those who were waiting to watch the excitement.

Just when everyone thought that the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom was really focused on development, the persecution of Chinese people broke out in Indonesia. Since the initial shameless search of the Chinese Consulate by the Indonesian military and police department, Tangcheng has been paying close attention to the changes in the situation in Indonesia. Fang Shengli's heavy-armed troops were secretly transferred to garrison in the Dongba area. The 3,000 elite garrison troops that were transferred were directly transferred by Tangcheng to the southern port of Dongtai Prefecture to stand by.

In October, after Tangcheng received reports of attacks on ordinary Chinese in Indonesia, he immediately issued a clear announcement to the world as the prince of southern Xinjiang. In this announcement, Tangcheng warned the Indonesian government and military and police forces that if the persecution of the Chinese cannot be stopped in time, the Kingdom of Southern Xinjiang will directly send troops to Indonesia to protect all overseas Chinese. This announcement from Tangcheng instantly ignited world public opinion, and most countries in the world began to pay attention to the anti-Chinese incident in Indonesia.

The Indonesian military and police, who were gradually becoming more confident, naturally received this notice from Tangcheng. However, they were very confident and felt that they were the strongest in the entire South Asia, so they did not release Tangcheng's external notice. in the eyes. Three days later, a large number of transport ships loaded with 3,000 elite soldiers sailed to Indonesia. When the transport fleet approached the Indonesian coastline, the aircraft fleet that took off from the rear entered Indonesia first.

Several consecutive aircraft bombings quickly turned the Indonesian port into ruins. Soldiers from southern Xinjiang aboard small landing craft also successfully landed one after another. Not only the Indonesian government, but also other countries did not expect that Tang Cheng would do what he said and complete the landing in Indonesia in such a short period of time. Tang Cheng not only directly sent troops to land in Indonesia, he also specially arranged for planes to hover over the Chinese gathering areas, dropping a large number of leaflets, and also used parachute airdrops to deliver a large number of weapons and ammunition to the Chinese.

In addition, Tangcheng also sent a telegram to the President of Indonesia directly through the British Consulate. In the telegram, Tang Cheng clarified the attitude of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom and claimed that if Indonesia did not want these Chinese to continue living here, the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom was willing to pick up all the Chinese who wanted to leave. Relying on these means alone cannot make the Indonesian government change its attitude, but they did not expect that Tangcheng had already deployed many foreign reporters and photographers in Indonesia. They had already recorded what the Indonesian military and police pretended to be thugs. Shameless deeds.

At the moment, the Indonesian government is quite trying to get off the ground, especially when the British consul said in front of the Indonesian President that the prince of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom was not to be trifled with. Tangcheng gave the Indonesian president one day to think about it, but the soldiers from southern Xinjiang who had completed the landing were not idle. In just half a day, they expanded to an area more than 20 kilometers away from the port, opening up a huge landing site for the troops that came later.

The Indonesian military was caught off guard and immediately ignored the dissuasion of government officials. Not only did they intensify the persecution of the Chinese, they also deployed troops to try to drive the southern Xinjiang troops that had completed the landing into the sea. But they still underestimated their opponents. The Indonesian army, which mobilized a large number of tanks and armored vehicles, came with great momentum, but was ambushed halfway by the southern Xinjiang army.

A large-scale ambush destroyed almost all the tanks and armored vehicles of the Indonesian army. However, all Indonesian military airports close to the landing area were also completely destroyed by the fighter groups in southern Xinjiang. As the war continued to change, the second batch of troops from the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom landed smoothly. However, this time, the troops from the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom who landed in Indonesia were all technical troops. With the arrival of a large number of artillery, engineers and armored troops, a batch of tanks and armored vehicles captured by the southern Xinjiang troops were urgently repaired and immediately put into use by the southern Xinjiang troops.

The conflict between the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom and Indonesia only started for one day, and the rhythm of the war seemed to have been controlled by the Southern Xinjiang side. At noon the next day, Tangcheng, which had not received a reply from the Indonesian government, immediately ordered a full-scale attack. The only six transport planes in the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom began to fly back and forth between southern Dongtai Prefecture and Indonesia, transporting large quantities of ammunition and weapons to the landing area. Two days later, a new batch of southern Xinjiang troops began to board transport ships and land in Indonesia one after another.

The photos taken by foreign journalists and the short films shot with handheld cameras have detonated the public opinion of the entire Western society. In Asia, what various countries are paying attention to is the powerful combat effectiveness and changeable tactics of the southern Xinjiang army. In just two days, all military airports in Indonesia were bombed. After losing its only old-fashioned fighter planes, Indonesia had lost its air power since the third day. On the other hand, the southern Xinjiang army not only continuously defeated the Indonesian army, they even controlled and repaired two military airports in Indonesia.

With the military airport in enemy territory, the fighter planes of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom no longer need to take off from the distant south of Dongtai Province. Now, as long as they receive a call for support from the frontline troops, the fighter planes of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom can fly over the battlefield in a short time to perform support missions. The southern Xinjiang army's alternating air and ground attack tactics have frequently caused the Indonesian army to suffer losses. They have now lost more than 20,000 troops. If we want to say who among the Western countries has the best relationship with the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, it can only be the United Kingdom.

As early as the emergence of anti-Chinese sentiment in Indonesia, Tangcheng lobbied Downing Street through Thomas, and a small fleet of six warships was stationed in Hong Kong early on. As soon as Tangcheng took action, the British fleet stationed in Hong Kong immediately weighed anchor. How could the British, who were accustomed to being a troublemaker, miss such a good opportunity? Therefore, when Indonesia lost its air superiority, the Indonesian Navy, which wanted to use its coastal defense capabilities, ran head-on into this small fleet of the British Navy.

Indonesia, which has no fighter planes and is suppressed by its coastal defense force and the British fleet, can only bite the bullet and fight a ground war with Tangcheng. Among the Indonesian army, only a few so-called elite direct troops are equipped with current American equipment. Most other Indonesian troops still use old weapons and equipment from the Second World War. But the southern Xinjiang troops, whether they are first-line troops or second-line assisting defense troops, are equipped with new semi-automatic rifles, especially they have a large number of air support provided by fighter planes.

The troops that Tangcheng mobilized from the Dongba area have frequently fought and exchanged fires with the Indian army in recent years, so they can be called elite. The Indonesian army, on the other hand, has no chance of actual combat. They can usually bully civilians. Since the war between the two sides began, they had a natural geographical advantage, but they could not show any advantage at all. As time goes by and the war continues to expand, the Indonesian military has become a bit overwhelmed, because their losses and casualties have been expanding.

The Indonesian military, which is inferior in skills but still concerned about their face, has no choice but to turn to the government for help. They hope that the government will stop the attack by the southern Xinjiang army and buy them time to carry out counterattacks. But Tang Cheng was not that deceitful. Just when the third batch of troops from the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom was landing, Tang Cheng also quietly appeared at the frontline headquarters. After receiving the attitude released by the Indonesian government, Tang Cheng was not surprised and ordered the troops to continue the attack.

The Indonesian government had no choice but to order the disbandment of the Indonesian army that had been summoned and sent military police to stop the rioting local groups. But even so, the riots supported by the Indonesian military have been going on for some time, and thousands of Chinese families have been persecuted by them. The number of Chinese victims recorded by foreign reporters alone in pictures and videos has exceeded 20,000.

Anti-Chinese riots on such a large scale and with vicious methods have never happened before, even in Western countries, but this is not the first time in Indonesia. But this time, the Kingdom of Southern Xinjiang got involved, completely disrupting the Indonesian military's plan. Tang Cheng's disregard made the Indonesian government completely panic. The previous battles had proved that the Indonesian army was no match for the southern Xinjiang troops.

At this time, the role of the British became apparent, and their ambassador in Indonesia soon appeared in the frontline theater as a mediator. The British ambassador, who had already received instructions from Downing Street, naturally understood what his mission was. As soon as he saw Tang Cheng, the British ambassador informed Tang Cheng, the prince of southern Xinjiang, of Downing Street's plans. After the Americans took control of Japan and South Korea, they still wanted to intervene in South Asian affairs. Naturally, the United Kingdom also wanted to intervene.

Downing Street plans to use this opportunity to weaken the United States' influence on Indonesia. And Tangcheng also needs the British mediator to win certain compensation for the Chinese in southern Xinjiang and Indonesia. Downing Street's intention is to harmonize with China and completely convince Indonesia. After understanding Downing Street's plan, Tang Cheng naturally supported it with both hands. After all, his original purpose was just to get all the Chinese people in Indonesia to settle in southern Xinjiang. With the British intervention, the Indonesian war turned from the previous large-scale fighting to sporadic fighting between small groups of troops.
