Eagle Sauce: The 055 destroyer was launched into the sea just after the founding of the country?

There was dead silence in the venue.

The representatives from Southeast Asian countries held the design drawings in their hands, each one looking uglier than the other.

Because what appeared in their hands were the design drawings of the dam planned by Longguo!

The sophisticated engineering designs, detailed hydrological data, and huge water storage capacity on the drawings all tell a cruel truth.

Their fate will soon be firmly in the hands of the Dragon Kingdom.

"This...are they going to build a dam on the Lancang River?"

The Siamese representative pointed at the drawing with trembling hands.

"If these projects are really completed, the amount of water in our Meigong River will be completely dependent on the Dragon Kingdom!"

The representative of the Monkey Kingdom of South Vietnam stood up suddenly.

"This is a naked threat!"

"Agricultural irrigation, fishery production, and inland shipping throughout the Indochina Peninsula all depend on this river."

“If you build a dam upstream…”

Qiao Mingyuan interrupted him calmly.

"You have misunderstood. The main purpose of these water conservancy projects is flood control and power generation, benefiting all countries in the basin. Look, the flood discharge design here..."

“Flood control and power generation?”

The representative of Liao State sneered.

"With the design of these gates, you can retain water during the dry season and suddenly release it during the rainy season."

"By then, we downstream countries will be facing drought or floods, and we will be at your mercy."

There was a chorus of agreement in the venue.

Although the representatives of these small countries were afraid of the power of the Dragon Kingdom, they had to make their voices heard in the face of this life-and-death threat.

Qiao Mingyuan stood on the podium, his eyes swept across the panicked faces, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Since you're so worried, let me show you this."

He pulled another document from his briefcase.

“This is the second phase of our project.”

"In addition to the Lancang River, we are also planning to build more water conservancy hubs upstream of the Nu River, Yalu Zangbo River and other rivers."

This sentence was like a heavy hammer, shattering the hearts of all Southeast Asian representatives present.

They suddenly realized that Long Guo was not joking.

This Eastern power, which had just conquered Singapore with a fleet, was fully capable of building any project they wanted in the upper reaches of these rivers.

"You...you are trying to control the lifeline of the entire Indochina Peninsula!"

The cotton pad represents the trembling voice.

Qiao Mingyuan put away the documents, his tone still calm.

"It depends on your attitude. If we can all live in harmony like brotherly nations, these water conservancy projects will naturally benefit all countries."

"But if someone insists on following certain countries to fight against Dragon Country..."

He didn't finish, but everyone understood the meaning of his words.

The representatives present looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear and helplessness.

They finally understood that Longguo did not need to use military force at all. As long as it controlled the source of these rivers, it could easily control the fate of the entire Indochina Peninsula.

The lights in the conference room were still bright, but the atmosphere became extremely depressing.

Qiao Mingyuan stood at the podium with a gentle smile on his face, as if he was just discussing an ordinary engineering project.

"You all should understand now, right?"

His voice was so soft, almost kind.

"The Dragon Nation truly has no intention of interfering in your territory."

Before he finished speaking, the air in the venue seemed to freeze.

Those Southeast Asian representatives who had been protesting fiercely just now were now like birds with their throats strangled, their faces pale and covered in cold sweat.

They all knew too well the weight of Qiao Mingyuan's words - the agricultural irrigation, fishery production, and inland shipping of the entire Indochina Peninsula all depended on these rivers that would soon be controlled by the Dragon Kingdom.

"after all,"

Qiao Mingyuan gently stroked the design drawing in his hand, with a hint of smile in his voice.

"If the Dragon Nation truly wanted something, it wouldn't need to mobilize a single soldier. Simply building a few dams upstream of these rivers would be enough to severely damage your nations."

The cotton-padded representative stood up suddenly, but just as he was about to speak, he fell back into his chair weakly.

He stared out the window with a dull gaze, as if he had already seen the scenes of his own country's rice fields cracking in the drought and fishing boats stranded on the dry river.

The Siamese representative's hands were shaking, and the folder fell to the ground with a "bang". The scattered papers were full of agricultural and fishery data in the Meigong River Basin.

Those figures silently tell a fact: once Longguo controls the water source, the economic lifeline of the entire Indochina Peninsula will be firmly grasped.

“This… this is simply…”

The representative of the Monkey Kingdom of South Vietnam stammered and was unable to speak.

His face turned red and white, and cold sweat kept dripping down his forehead.

As a downstream country, the Monkey Kingdom of South Vietnam depends on these rivers even more than other countries.

The representatives of the affiliated countries were completely speechless.

He just mechanically flipped through the design drawings in his hand, and his face turned paler with every page he turned.

In his eyes, those sophisticated water conservancy engineering designs seemed like a sword hanging over his head.

Qiao Mingyuan looked around, his eyes sweeping over every terrified face.

His smile was still gentle, but there was a sharpness in his eyes that could not be ignored.

"So, I think we can now talk about cooperation calmly, right?"

"After all, wouldn't it be better if these water projects could benefit all countries?"

The venue was completely silent.

The representatives who had been making impassioned speeches just now all lowered their heads.

They finally understood a cruel truth.

In this world where might is right, the Dragon Kingdom already has enough leverage to make them submit.

The most terrifying thing is that this kind of control does not even require the use of a single soldier.

"Of course," Qiao Mingyuan put away the blueprints, his voice still gentle, "If you feel you need more time to consider, we won't rush."

"After all, it will take several years for these projects to be completed."

These words were like a heavy hammer, shattering the hearts of all the representatives present.

A few years? That means they won't even have a chance to resist.

When these dams are completed, the fate of the entire Indochina Peninsula will be completely in the hands of Longguo.

Looking at this group of Southeast Asian representatives who looked as if they had lost their parents, Qiao Mingyuan couldn't help but smile.

It only hurts harmony among people, not the republic.

The youngest chief engineer of the Dragon Country in China is not only good at researching weapons, but also has the unique ability to come up with the idea of ​​building a dam upstream.

This strategic maneuvering should not be underestimated...
