Chapter 424: Head Like Rain (5)
The Servant Army received orders to march eastward on 15 June. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info there are already about 300,000 servants stationed in the Great Lakes region along with the Fifth Corps, undertaking the work of purging the Great Lakes region. After receiving the order, Yuan Weiting, the commander-in-chief of the servant army, was not in a high mood.
"Commander Yuan, since the organization has asked us to go to the five major regions, let's complete the task conscientiously." Chief of Staff Wang Shizhen habitually calmly advised.
"Lao Wang, Commissar Wang, I really want to go to the south to fight." Yuan Weiting touched his short hair with a round inch of three millimeters, and said to Wang Shizhen, who was sitting opposite him.
The train was filled with servants in gray uniforms, and these Japanese seemed to be very interested in the long journey, and many of them leaned into the windows in the aisles to look out. The sound of walking around made Yuan Weiting have to lower his voice.
Wang Shizhen was still as calm as ever, "I know you want to show your ability on the side of Political Commissar Qi Rui, I personally don't think it's necessary for us to get involved in that troubled water." The political commissar of the war zone knows the depth of the water here, why don't they go to curry favor with Political Commissar Qi Rui? ”
This information made Yuan Weiting frown greatly, it is true, although Qi Rui's Sixth Corps is indeed strong, but the commander of the theater still concentrates his troops in the Great Lakes region according to common sense.
At this time, the division of the United States was that the west of the Appalachian Mountains was called the West, and the west of the Rocky Mountains was called the Far West. After the spring of 1890, the Fifth Corps, which began to advance eastward from the winter, began to advance westward, preparing to start from Lake Erie, along the Erie Canal all the way east, and finally conquer New York City at the eastern end of the Erie Canal.
The Fourth Corps, which moved south from the wintering grounds of Minnesota and Wisconsin, moved south along the Great Plains and swept through the western United States.
Next to Chen Bing in Canada was the Seventh Corps, which was responsible for attracting Canadians in the face of the Canadians.
Qi Rui's Sixth Corps, which spent the winter in the Far West, is now trying to cross the Rocky Mountains and try to enter the southern part of the Great Plains of the United States. This corps had ten brigades of servant troops, and these 100,000 servant troops were responsible for the cleansing. The remaining 90 percent of the servant corps set out with the Fifth Corps, which was attacking eastward, and at least the theater command thought that this was the hardest work.
In addition to these four Corps, the Eighth Corps stationed on the Mexican border and the Ninth Corps stationed in a vast area centered in Vancouver were stationed in North America. There is also the 10th Corps that is being formed near Xinxiang City. These seven corps assembled more than 2.1 million Reconquista field troops, combined with about 2.3 million reservists who had retired but not left North America, plus 1 million servants, and 5.5 million troops would face ten times the enemy in North America. Even if half of these enemies are women, the other half of the men include a large number of infants, toddlers, children, teenagers, and the elderly.
Thinking of these problems, Yuan Weiting agreed with Wang Shizhen's opinion in his heart, at least in the eyes of the North American Theater Command, Qi Rui's status was far from the point where they revolved around Qi Rui. The entire war layout had only one purpose, and that was to win this North American war of unprecedented scale.
Wang Shizhen looked at Yuan Weiting's expression as a monkey jumped first, and then gradually calmed down, and he continued: "Commander Yuan, our task is to supervise these Japanese to do a good job of cleaning. Once the troops really hit the East Coast of the United States, the next work will be difficult. ”
Yuan Weiting felt that Wang Shizhen was a little surprised, and he said unhappily: "I see that the Japanese are enjoying it, what is so difficult about this?" ”
"I also asked some of the captives, and they said that the countries of the Atlantic coast no longer supported the war of annihilation. It didn't take long for them to ask, and they were cleansed, and I don't know if it's true. Wang Shizhen replied.
"Survival?" Yuan Weiting is also a person who has read books, and he doesn't need Wang Shizhen to drop his schoolbag, he has already said this classic word. But after finishing speaking, Yuan Weiting sneered, "Don't talk about it, I don't think these big noses will let go of the Indians." ”
Wang Shizhen shook his head and said in his usual calm voice: "No, the big noses have built a protective area and pushed the Indians in and left them to fend for themselves. This is also a kind of survival and survival. ”
"Hey, hey! Wang, you ...... Are you serious? Yuan Weiting no longer knew what to say about his old partner.
Wang Shizhen still continued in that calm tone: "Survival and death are originally a ritual, an attitude of not killing everything, not to make those who are defeated stronger than before. In this regard, I would like to write a letter to the Theater Command with you, suggesting that the command can imitate what the Big Noses did to the Indians and set up some reservations for the Big Noses. ”
"......" Yuan Weiting was speechless, what Wang Shizhen said and the tone of his speech were insidious but not cold, absurd but not absurd. It's really worth thinking about.
Wang Shizhen continued: "As for the eastern part of the United States, I have an idea, I don't know if Commander Yuan is willing to hear it......
On July 5, in Paris, France, the Chinese Embassy spread a 'Hero's Post', inviting important figures in France and Paris to have a banquet. Not only in Paris, but also in Berlin, in London, in St. Petersburg, in Rome, in Brussels, in Madrid, in Amsterdam, in Lisbon. At about the same time, the embassies of the major European countries of the Republic of China said that they would invite the leading figures of various countries to a banquet on July 15.
Such a move is no accident, and these European countries believe that the government of the Republic of China is preparing to announce a major event on July 15. According to the practice of the Minchao, countries can easily come to such a conclusion. However, the views of countries on what kind of major event are very different. For example, Britain believes that it is the result of a war in North America, and France believes that China may be trying to blame a European country, such as Germany. As for the news coming out of the German Imperial Palace, the young German emperor suspected that China might declare war on Britain.
The ideas of the young German emperor soon became known to British intelligence, and this attitude provoked strong resentment among the British upper echelons. No declaration of war had ever been made at a banquet for guests, and Queen Victoria of India could only shake her head at the immaturity of her grandson. Empress Elizabeth knew that many European countries wanted China to go to war with Britain, but even if they thought so, they would hold it in their hearts and say it with a question.
The Chinese embassy has two properties in Paris, one in the embassy district in the city, and the other in the villa area on the outskirts of Paris. Compared to the city's embassies, this suburban area is huge, with large courtyards and grand buildings, as well as a botanical garden consisting of vegetable gardens, orchards and gardens. With the Chinese's natural talent for planting, there are always flowers blooming in the garden, and fruits and vegetables can be provided to the embassy in the orchard and vegetable garden.
By July 15, almost all the invitees had attended. Some of the invitees made it clear that they would not engage with Chinese officials until China withdrew from the United States and compensated the United States for its losses, so they kept their vows. But in an era where land reparations were common, even the French did not agree with this childish approach.
There are those who refuse to come, and there are many more who are not invited but want to blend in, there are guards at the entrance of the villa who carefully check the invitations, and there are guards patrolling the fence with big wolf dogs. As a result, many newspaper practitioners can only take pictures with their cameras, or watch with jealous expressions as their invited counterparts enter Chinese villas with their cameras on their backs.
The meal was served in the usual buffet, with fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as drinks and alcohol. Attendees with empty plates walked up to the chefs who were standing by the fire, and the chefs used their skills to stir-fry the dishes to the participants with the utmost skill.
For a while, all kinds of aromas filled the air over this venue, and although French cuisine is the most exquisite cuisine in Europe, it is still insufficient compared to Chinese cuisine. Among the chefs involved in this show are of course French chefs, and those who attend prefer Chinese-style food.
After such a big meal, the Chinese ambassador finally appeared in the venue. When he stood in the position of the speech, most of the invitees who felt that the trip had a more important task than eating gathered together.
After trying the microphone, the Chinese Embassy in France said fluently in French: "Gentlemen, ladies. We are here to share with you the news that, just yesterday, our envoy arrived in Washington to inform the current Administration of the United States of our views on the war. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone held their breath, and the people who didn't guess the content of this publication listened very carefully, which was a big deal. Those who guessed correctly the content of this announcement listened more carefully, and the reason why they could guess correctly was that they were very concerned about this matter in the first place, and since they were concerned, it was naturally necessary to understand China's position and attitude.
"The Americans arrived in North America aboard the Mayflower and were warmly welcomed by the local Indians. Not only were pumpkins and turkeys provided to them, but they were also allowed to live in the area, so that day was designated as Thanksgiving Day in the United States. The Chinese ambassador to France told the history of the Indians.
Most of the French people who came to the banquet did not know these histories, and although they did not understand the meaning of what the Chinese said, they were also a little curious.
"And these Americans, having gained a foothold in North America, not only suddenly attacked, slaughtered the tribe. Members of captive tribal chieftains' families and tribesmen were also sold to slave plantations in the Caribbean. From any point of view, this is a loss of conscience. The Chinese ambassador was emotional, and some of the French people listening to the speech below already felt some of the flavor. It seems that China is preparing to justify China's invasion of the United States by enumerating the sins of the Americans.
"The Americans then carried out a massacre of the Indians, and tens of millions of Indians were killed by the Americans. China is a civilized country, so we came into contact with these Indians in the war against the United States, and we believe that the misfortune suffered by these Indians needs to be saved. And we, China, are willing to save these Indians. So we decided to help the Indians restore their country. East of the Alabachian Mountains, we will restore the Indian state. We had no intention of exterminating the Americans, and we consulted with the representatives of the Indians, who were generous enough to allow the Americans to live in the reserves, and the Indians would not exterminate the Indians as the Americans did with the Indians. ”
Listening to the words of the Chinese representative, many of the French visitors wanted to boo. But the news was so shocking that they couldn't shout. Originally, European countries believed that China's goal was to defeat the Americans and then force the United States to sign a treaty and seize American land. The current situation seems to prove that China's plan to establish an Indian state and establish a white reserve in the Indian country is to completely eliminate the United States. This kind of impact is enough to make all kinds of unstable performances not happen at all.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have now invited the representatives of the Indians to meet with you, all of whom have witnessed the blood and tears of North America, and many of their family members have been killed by the Americans. There was no one to help them tell the world what was happening, and now we in China are here to help them speak out. Claim justice for them! Indian representatives, please! "With the loud voice of the ambassador, the door of the villa opened, and five Indians, dressed in traditional Indian attire, that is, linen tunics, leather trousers, and a strap with a white feather on their heads, appeared.
The French never expected that the Chinese were so well prepared, and among the invited people were some officials of the French security services, and the officials came here to test what kind of medicine the Chinese were selling in the gourd, and also had the meaning of strengthening defense. Recently, there have been more and more threats to the Chinese embassy, and the French side is really worried about what will happen.
As soon as he saw these guys who were in the Indian installation bundle, the official of the French security department asked the subordinates next to him in a low voice, "Are they Chinese who came a few days ago?" ”
The subordinates carefully distinguished it and nodded repeatedly, "Indeed, but at that time they were wearing Chinese clothes, and they were not what they are now." ”
At this time, the invited reporters had already picked up their cameras to take pictures, and the magnesium lights flashed desperately, making these Indian men and Indian boys and girls subconsciously close their eyes. Looking at the guy wearing Indian clothes and having a Chinese face, the French intelligence officer sneered in his heart, France has not dealt with the Indians, France once had a colony of Louisiana in North America, and French merchants on the North American continent also had a lot of dealings with the Indians. The Chinese side found a few Chinese disguised as Indians, and this trick was not too clumsy. He believes that it will not be long before this trick will be exposed.
Not only in Paris, but also at the banquet venue of the Chinese ambassadors of the major European countries where the conference was held, the Chinese invited representatives of the Indians. The first reaction of European countries is that the Chinese are cheating, but in fact, there is no need for the Chinese to cheat. In the Far West, Northwest, and West of the United States, there are many remnants of Native American tribes. After the Chinese army entered the area, the Indian tribes chose to side with China. The Indians sent were genuine Native Americans of the North American continent.
In Berlin in particular, the female representative of the Indian tribes who had fled to the border with China gave a small speech in English, "President George of the United States?? Hua Shengton wrote an order: from the human skin of the Indians, you can make high-quality leather boots! US President Thomas?? Jefferson wrote in his speech: America must exterminate the Indians! He said the same thing in his speech. President of the United States Abraham?? Lincoln openly declared: kill an Indian every ten minutes! If you are your self-proclaimed civilized, listen to the voices of our Indians. Ever since before the founding of the United States, since the Americans landed in the Americas, they have been massacring Indians. It has been 270 years since the Mayflower arrived in North America in 1620, and in those 270 years, Indians have been killed by Americans every day. After 270 years of non-stop slaughter, it's finally time for the world to know! ”
The same speeches were given not only in Berlin, but also in England. The English are more familiar with the Mayflower, which is an English 3-masted galen, 19.50 meters long, 7.95 meters wide, 3.35 meters draft, and 180 tons of displacement, which was launched in 1615. On September 6, 1620, the ship sailed from Plymouth, England, with 102 men, women, and children on board, to establish the first colony in North America.
The young Indian who spoke in England spoke in Indian English: "Whether it is the founder of the United States, or the drafter of the American Declaration of Independence, or the famous president of the United States." In the eyes of Americans, they are glorious greats. In the eyes of us Indians, they are all murderers of our Indians! Murderer! Murderer! A murderer stained with the blood of tens of millions of Indians! ”
A small number of Britons were moved by the accusation, and the majority looked gloomily at the 'Indian Representative' who spoke. For centuries, no matter how evil the colonialists had done to these natives, there had never been a time when the natives had been able to lash out so fiercely at the colonizers in the capitals of the colonialists. When these natives stand behind the Chinese, this criticism even becomes impossible to ignore. It's a terrible feeling
There is another problem that has come to mind for a few Britons, and the United States is by no means the only one in North America. Britain's Canadian colonies were also in North America. For the time being, the Indian state seems to be targeting the United States, but in case the Indians in Canada are also supported by China and make accusations against Canada......
This kind of imagination of Chinese imperialism made these British feel a great crisis.
