Chapter 432: Survival in Hong Kong (77)
Although Xiao Ju followed the people at the police station every day to run for various situations, she saw bright red flags flying everywhere in the streets and alleys of Hong Kong, sticking with the words 'Long live New China!' ''The Chinese people have finally stood up!'' ....... the various banners, she had a complex feeling of joy and worry in her heart.
On October 1, although there were still excited pro-communist people and groups marching on the streets of Hong Kong, and at the same time there were several small-scale clashes with people from some pro-** associations, such as 14K, the clashes were quickly quelled with the timely intervention of the police station, and did not cause very serious consequences. When evening came, everyone in the police station was secretly relieved, as long as the day passed safely, everyone could take a breath.
In fact, during this period, not only all the people from the police station were dispatched, but all districts of Hong Kong were on strict guard; Even the British garrison in Hong Kong is secretly ready to respond to emergencies at any time. Moreover, the governor of Hong Kong did not get a good night's sleep during this time, for fear that the pro-** faction and pro-communist faction on Hong Kong Island would lose control, and people on both sides would clash, causing chaos on Hong Kong Island; They are also afraid that the troops of the new inland government will come to Hong Kong. You must know that he has received news that the troops of the new inland government have reached Guangdong, and they are getting closer and closer to Hong Kong. If nothing else, we will arrive at the border between the mainland and Hong Kong in about ten days.
And these news, Xiao Ju and them are impossible for ordinary police officers to know. For Xiao Ju and her family, as soon as October 1 passes, the founding ceremony of the new inland government will come to an end, which means that they have won the support of the majority of the people in the inland and confirmed their dominance! All the dust has settled. The passions of those pro-communist people on Hong Kong Island will also calm down, there will naturally be much less conflict with the pro-** faction, the tense atmosphere on Hong Kong Island will be much less, and the work of the police station will naturally not be as heavy as it was during this time. At the same time, there will be much less pressure on the police officers.
Xiaoju and the others relaxed, but all the senior British officials of the Hong Kong government became more and more anxious, because the intelligence department of the Hong Kong government kept reporting to the governor the policy trends of the new inland government and the movements of the troops advancing in the direction of Guangzhou, and the governor naturally summoned senior officials from all departments of the Hong Kong government to meet to discuss countermeasures. As a result, these people naturally can't sleep at night.
Because in the eyes of these British officials, since the new inland government is determined to eliminate colonial rule and imperialism in the whole world, it will naturally not tolerate them The British Empire will continue to exercise colonial rule on Hong Kong, an island belonging to China, which means that the troops of the new inland government will soon be driven to Hong Kong.
As a matter of fact, as early as 1946, the chairman of the new inland government told British reporters that as long as the British did not treat Hong Kong people harshly, he would not allow Hong Kong's status to damage Sino-British relations. In November last year, the new government, which had only just come to power in the mainland, asked the head of his Xinhua Hong Kong bureau to give assurances to the Hong Kong government. The new government will not make trouble with Hong Kong. It was even explicit that the British colonial government was allowed to provide asylum to those who had escaped from Hong Kong.
But two governments with completely different ideologies; countries in the world that are in a completely different camp. One represents capitalism, the other represents **, and there is no fundamental trust between them. How can those officials in the Hong Kong government be relieved? It was not until 17 October that the news of the halt of the troops of the new inland government had stopped when they advanced inland to the border with Hong Kong reached the ears of the British officials who were waiting for the news in the meeting hall of the Hong Kong government. This group of talents breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
When Xiao Ju learned about these news, it had been several days. This is still a few British officers in the police station when they were discussing this matter in private, and other police officers heard it and made a fuss.
"Xiaoju, you said that the army of the new inland government really won't fight?" Xia Li held the lunch box and asked Xiao Ju, who was sitting opposite her and also eating lunch, with a look of disbelief on her face.
"I shouldn't call it!" Xiao Ju, who knew that Hong Kong would return to China peacefully in 1997, calmly took a bite of the meat film in her hand, and took another sip of bone broth, while saying vaguely in her mouth. During this time, because it was too chaotic, many shops were closed, and Xiaoju had to bring their own lunch.
"I think it's a bit hanging! The reason why it hasn't been attacked now is because the new government's regime in the interior has not yet stabilized, and there are still many places in the hands of the **! When we have all the inland in hand, it will naturally be our turn in Hong Kong! Ah Bin's face was full of disagreement with Xiao Ju's opinion.
"That's what I thought, too!" Xia Li immediately echoed Ah Bin's idea.
"I'm not married yet! The two of you are starting to sing husband and wife! Regarding Xia Li and Ah Bin's worries, although Xiao Ju was very sure that things would not develop in the situation they were worried about, because it was difficult to explain, she had to laugh at the two of them.
"Xiaoju, you are also old, don't be too demanding! I think there are a lot of good guys in our police station who secretly like you! What do you think? Do you want to give them a chance? Xia Li asked tentatively.
"Xia Li, just now I was obviously talking about whether the new government's troops from the inland side will attack me, why did this turn to me again?" Xiao Ju glanced at Xia Li.
Xiao Ju and a few people in the archives discussed in the archives whether the new inland government would attack Hong Kong after pacifying the interior. In Slee's office, Willy was sitting in Sly's office with a smug face, sipping the hand-ground coffee that Slee had helped him make. Slee, on the other hand, was the complete opposite of Willy, describing him as haggard, with two large dark circles under his eyes.
"Willy, I didn't call you here for coffee! I heard that you have good relations with many high-ranking officials of the new inland government, have you heard that there is a plan to attack Hong Kong? Slee looked at Willy eagerly.
Willy, however, seemed to deliberately adjust Sly's appetite, because the coffee was too hot, so he blew unhurriedly and then took a gentle sip; Blow again, C gently sip; Seeing that Sley couldn't hold back any longer, he completely put aside the gentlemanly demeanor he had cultivated since childhood, stood up violently, snatched the coffee cup from Willy's hand, and said with a dissatisfied face, "Don't drink it!" Tell me quickly, have you heard any news that is unfavorable to Hong Kong after going to the mainland for so long? ”
"I see you're in a hurry! People have shown their goodwill to you, both openly and secretly, saying that they will not attack Hong Kong! But you just don't believe it, what can you do? Willy's blue eyes rolled at Slee, and he snatched back the coffee cup with some impatience, the coffee that Sley grinded was a must, fragrant, thick and mellow! And this guy doesn't grind coffee for people! He had been friends with Slee for so long, and he had drunk a total of two coffees that Slee had ground himself.
"Is it true that the new government in the interior is telling us? Will Hong Kong be reclaimed? Slee stared at Willy in disbelief.
"Believe it or not! If you think about it, almost all the immigrants in Hong Kong in recent years are some Chinese capitalists who oppose the new government, big landlords and gentry, scholars and literati, and some scattered people who have avoided here; These people will not listen to the propaganda and agitation of the new inland government! Willy paused and took a pleasant sip of coffee, while Slim looked at him intently, waiting for him to continue.
"Actually, you should know that the pro-communist organizations in Hong Kong did not preach their nationalism among the refugees who migrated to Hong Kong some time ago, but unfortunately they did not enjoy the support of those Chinese people as they did in the mainland. Because they have missed the preach of nationalism in a colony full of ** immigrants, no matter how good they are, it will be in vain. If it is not done well, it will be even more reckless and stupid, and it will even be counterproductive at that time, forcing the local Chinese to support Chiang's regime in Taiwan. Willie nodded in agreement when he saw Slee listening, and the conversation was even more exciting.
"On the other hand, if people from the mainland government try to stir up an anti-colonial struggle in Hong Kong, do you think my country, the United States, will turn a blind eye? Sly, when the time comes, not only will my home country intervene in this matter, but other countries will also stand up and intervene in this matter, do you think the inland government will light this fuse at this time? Willy asked in a low tone.
"Mao is not a stupid person, he naturally won't do such a thing!" Sly said suddenly, the tense muscles that had been tense before Willy didn't say this had unconsciously relaxed, and a relaxed smile began to appear on his face.
"Hong Kong maintains its current status quo and has another role for a new inland government that you have not considered!" Willy smug a finger and shook it.
"What does it do?" Sly was a little puzzled.
"Hong Kong is a port of free trade, a resting place for all foreign ships to anchor and unload, and at the same time a window from the interior of China to the outside world, which has a very different meaning for the new inland government. Remittances from overseas Chinese can be channelled through Hong Kong's banks to provide valuable foreign exchange to the inland government to help the new inland government rebuild their war-torn economy, and goods that cannot be produced in the mainland may also be imported through Hong Kong. It is very useful for breaking the embargo of the United States and the United States for them! With that, Willy finished his cup of coffee in one gulp, and handed the empty cup to Slee.
"What a word to wake up a dreamer! Willie, I didn't expect you to see the political situation on both sides so thoroughly, it really impresses me! Slee willingly took the empty coffee cup from Willy, and gave Willy a sincere admiration before preparing to grind the coffee.
"It's not for nothing to have fellowship with those people!" Willie said with some vagueness. Naturally, he would not tell Sù that he had already made a piece of the pie in cooperation with the new inland government, and now he is negotiating a further cooperation! Cooperative relations, naturally some situations will be more clearly understood, which is also a risk that must be avoided in doing business.
