Chapter 885 Yes, it is nuclear blackmail (first update, please subscribe)
"Have the results of the operation been confirmed?"

In the morning, Li Yian asked as soon as he entered the study after finishing breakfast.

"Our agents in Siam have confirmed that the entire Prime Minister's Office has been completely razed to the ground. At least nine bombs hit the Prime Minister's Office accurately from multiple directions. Our informants in the military also provided intelligence that the air defense bunker was completely destroyed. At least two bombs exploded directly inside the bunker. Therefore, it is impossible for anyone to be alive. Now they are still digging in the ruins, but it is just symbolic."

As Cheng Pengan spoke, he took out several aerial photos, including not only photos after the destruction, but also aerial photos taken before.

"Through analysis of aerial photos, analysts believe that it is impossible for anyone to survive such a bombing! Moreover, after the bombing, the influx of groundwater covered all the underground spaces. Even if someone survived by chance, they would have been drowned. Now the bunker has been completely swallowed by groundwater."

It can be clearly seen from the photos that there is a large amount of water accumulated in the ruins, and several bomb craters next to the ruins have simply turned into small lakes.

"very good!"

Li Yian raised the corners of his mouth and said.

"When shooting a man, shoot the horse first; when capturing a thief, capture the leader first. Now that the 'decapitation operation' has been successful, with no leader, all parties will fall into chaos. Let them seize the opportunity and intensify their offensive. The air force's bombing must also be intensified. We have so many World War II bombs piled up in our warehouses. If we don't use them, it will be a waste."

Li Yian looked very relaxed at this moment. The success of this "decapitation operation" was beyond his imagination.

In fact, it is understandable that in this era, no country had carried out such a decapitation operation. If we have to say that there was one, we had to wait until more than 20 years later when Soviet special forces beheaded Afghan President Amin.

However, using an air strike to carry out a decapitation operation was a first in Southeast Asia.

"Your Excellency is right. According to the plan, we will tell everyone this news through various means such as broadcasting and leaflets to shake their morale. At the same time, we will also launch extensive psychological warfare. If everything goes well, the situation in Siam will change in the next few days."

After thinking for a while, Cheng Pengan said.

"Among the top military officials, there are still many Free Siamese officers who were trained in Yunnan and Chongqing during World War II. Some of them have been in contact with us. Once the time is right, they will definitely take action!"

If the first "Bangkok Operation" ten years ago was a fledgling operation, then this "Siam Operation" was almost a trial run after summarizing the experience.

They gained a lot of experience from that operation ten years ago.

"Well, very good. Using fighting to promote change, the Air Force will increase the intensity of air strikes. As long as the situation on the front line changes quickly enough, they will definitely make a choice."

People are always realistic.

Afterwards, Li Yian asked Cheng Pengan about the arrangements after the Siam War and where those people should be used. This time there were detailed arrangements.

"…So, basically, we can ensure that our people will dominate both the military and political circles of the interim government."

After a pause, Cheng Pengan looked at Your Excellency and said.

"Sir, the reason why we completely withdrew from Siam and did not take advantage of the opportunity to manipulate it was not because we were waiting for this day?"

In fact, Cheng Pengan has always had a hunch that His Excellency was waiting for Siam to reach its current point step by step, as if he had planned everything back then.

"How should I put it? The most fundamental reason for withdrawing from Siam was because of our strength. At that time, our strength was too weak, and we didn't even have complete control over Borneo. If we intervened in Siam again, it would be a bit beyond our capabilities. The temporary retreat was for a better return. Moreover, although we seemed to have withdrawn, we had laid a lot of hidden lines..."

Li Yian accepted the compliment with a smile.

"It turns out that our decision was correct. With their help, Bangkok's rule will soon be dismantled."

In fact, Li Yian also wanted to control Siam at that time, but his strength was not as good as others!
As for the secret lines developed in the military, to put it bluntly, it was because he knew that the Siamese military liked to launch military coups. His original plan was very simple - after completing the purge of the military's top brass, those people would become high-ranking military brass, and in the future, when the time was right, he would launch a military coup.

But who would have known that the purge of high-ranking military officials would indirectly help Panongrong and actually lead him to another path... It can only be said that plans can never keep up with changes.

But for now, the Siamese problem is no longer a problem! All problems have been solved.

"Now, we can control Siam according to our will!" Of course, more importantly, the bottom line of Nanyang will also be known to all countries in the world, and they will also understand what is Nanyang's reverse scale and what is the bottom line that cannot be touched.

"Sir, this is just the beginning. Even after we control Siam, we still have to consider the future. For a long time to come, there will definitely be people who will continue to resist. They will enter the rainforest and mountains, just like some Siamese soldiers and civilians before. Moreover, the Soviet Union and other countries will certainly provide them with support. I am worried that the situation in Siam may deteriorate further in the future."

This is not just Cheng Pengan's concern, but also what Li Yian has always been most worried about. What he is most worried about is that the Siam incident will become a long-term issue, just like in Vietnam, Afghanistan and other places. With the intervention of big powers, they only need to provide weapons and material assistance to turn a small country into a stumbling block for a big country, and even drag down a superpower.

"Indeed, that's exactly what I'm worried about. So,"

Looking into the distance, Li Yian said.

"We will launch a missile with an atomic warhead today, which means we will conduct a nuclear test."

what?
Cheng Pengan looked at you in astonishment. He had never expected that you would respond in this way.

"Perhaps the greatest power of nuclear weapons is on the launch pad. However, the real deterrent power of nuclear weapons is to tell others that we will really use them."

After saying that, Li Yian stood up and walked silently in the study.

Those who know you know that you are thinking at this time, so Cheng Pengan is standing there.

After walking for a while, he went to the large desk, took out a cigar, lit it, took a puff, exhaled the smoke and said.

"We must make them understand that if they dare to infringe upon our core interests, we will definitely use nuclear weapons to strike back, no matter which country it is!"

"Sir, isn't that a bit too... extreme?"

Cheng Pengan didn't even know what to say.

That's an atomic bomb!
"No,"

Li Yian shook his head and said.

"We must create an absolute safety circle of our own. Only when we and our surroundings are safe can we set our sights on more distant places."

Where is the more distant place?

It is Africa, South America, and the entire world. For Nanyang, it is impossible to limit its vision to Southeast Asia. After all, Southeast Asia’s resources are too limited and too small.

The world is so big, Nanyang always needs to go out and explore.

"If we cannot create an absolutely safe area, then in the future our energy will be distracted by various surrounding security issues, and our strength will also be consumed here. So..."

Looking into the distance, Li Yian took a deep puff of his cigar, exhaled the smoke, and said,
"We must tell them in a very decisive way... that they need to pay the price for their actions, and this price is not just the destruction of Siam. If necessary, we will use atomic bombs as a way of retaliating."

After saying that, he sneered.

"Sometimes, we always think that if we are patient, things will get better. In fact, don't they think that we will be patient, so they treat us like this? They dare to infiltrate armed personnel into Malaya, but they dare not go to Southeast Asia or Western Europe, because they know the cost. They think that with such infiltration, we dare not go all-in with them, and will not confront them head-on. However... when being gentle, respectful, frugal and modest cannot solve the problem, and when being submissive will only make the other party worse, it is better to take action when necessary and deal with it when necessary, and never tolerate or condone it."

This is true for human beings and even more so for a country. We must stick to our bottom line principles.

"Faced with others' constant violations of their bottom line, many countries can only cowardly and cowardly shout: "Do you know the consequences of making me angry?" Nothing will happen. Blindly giving in will sometimes only make others more unscrupulous. Therefore, they will continue to violate our bottom line. This is the case in Malaya. We are using Siam to tell them what we will do. If they provoke us, nothing will happen!"

What is the bottom line?

The bottom line cannot be touched!
"So when we treat the world harshly, we will find that the world suddenly becomes gentle and polite! Therefore, appropriate blackmail will also be rewarding!"
