The La Plata area is beautiful as it gradually enters the height of summer.

Especially on the banks of the fertile Paraná River, the clear and sweet gurgling water, the faintly fragrant wildflowers, the bison enjoying the afternoon sun, and the old songs of the gauchos faintly drifting in the wind all tell people that this is a rich land full of life.

But now everything has changed, especially in the eyes of the white Spanish residents, and everything has become unrecognizable and disgusting! They could no longer lie in their vineyards one afternoon, sip sweet wine, and take a nap; They can no longer go on a safari with friends on a sunny day, and then have a barbecue with the ladies and children; They could not stand proudly in front of the lowly Crandis, Mestizos, and gauchos, looking at their respectful and flattering faces, and enjoying the supreme glory of being a superior person.

This qiē is now over, because of the war, damn the second war of La Plata!

Liao Xiaoyao rode past a burning house with a little embers remaining, and stared speechless for a long time. In front of the door lay a bloodied corpse that appeared to be a Caucasian man, with a spear in the chest and slashes on his neck and thighs from metal knives. It's been some time since he's dead, and the blood on the ground has clotted.

Inside the burned house, a white Spanish woman died naked in her bed, and under the bed, two decapitated children, apparently the children of the family, lay down. The family's valuable belongings were almost swept away. Even the wardrobes, chairs, and other furniture that could be easily removed are gone. It's really a family with four walls.

"It was done by seven Klandians. They were formerly slaves of the family and were abused. Later, after being declared free by our army, they joined the transport team of our army and undertook transport tasks for the front. They secretly left the team last month with armaments (spears, sabers) and then sneaked back to Buenos Aires to murder the Spanish inhabitants, and have now been captured by our department and held in a concentration camp. Second Lieutenant Guo Puxia of the Gendarmerie reported to Liao Xiaoyao, the commander of the Buenos Aires garrison, who went to the suburbs to clean up law and order.

He is a little embarrassed, there have been a large number of vicious law and order cases in the suburbs recently, and almost all the criminals are turned over Crandi slaves. These Crandi slaves harbored a bitter hatred for the Spanish colonizers. Therefore, after being released as free men by the East Coasters, they often relied on their numerical superiority to frequently attack the Spanish white colonists, creating a large number of sensational law and order cases. Theft, murder, robbery, rape, arson, extermination, etc., nothing that the Crendians could not do, the white Spanish inhabitants trembled and feared.

The new conquistadors seemed to have a problem with them, confiscating all the guns that had been hidden in the civilian population, but not providing them with adequate protection, which made the Spanish inhabitants so vulnerable to the vengeful Clandi, and a large number of white inhabitants were killed and wounded in waves of criminal cases.

In all fairness. The Easterners did turn a blind eye to the Klandians' revenge at first, but it didn't take long. They found that the Krandi were completely out of control, and they were emboldened to the point that even the convoys of the East Coasters dared to attack. Aware of the problem, Liao Xiaoyao immediately ordered the 36th Regiment of the Xue Corps and the militia brigade of Xihu County, stationed nearby, to attack and suppress the natives who committed crimes.

By this time, however, the insurgency had spread throughout the La Plata area, and the soldiers on the east bank could only maintain law and order near the camp, and they could not do anything far into the grasslands. In the face of such a situation, Liao Xiaoyao was helpless, it was already good to be able to keep order in the urban area, but as for those manors and farms in the countryside, he could not take care of a lot. Outrageous things can often happen there, such as the family of the Spanish settler who has been wiped out right now.

"The camps are overcrowded right now!" After Liao Xiaoyao turned around the crime scene twice, he lost interest, and then asked Guo Puxia: "I remember that there are no less than 2,000 people stuffed there, right?" ”

"As of yesterday, there were 2,088 prisoners in the camp, including 291 Spaniards and 1,797 Klandis." Guo Puxia replied immediately.

"Pack up for them, and in two days a ship will come and pull the whole colony." Especially those who are Klandis, the focus is on New Huaxia Island, where construction requires a large number of manpower. In particular, the Tacheng Coal Mine and several newly established large state-owned plantations, lumber yards, and farms needed much more manpower, and they were all sent over for labor reform. As for the white Spanish inhabitants who had been driven into the towns and cities by the Clandi rebels, they could not be kept in vain, and all of them were sent to South Africa and Australia. They are now hungry and full, and do not believe that they do not want to go. Liao Xiaoyao said indifferently.

Everyone knows what happened to these people when they went to overseas colonies. Those Spaniards are okay to say, because they are immigrants in disguise, they have a free status, and although life is difficult, it is not too bad. But for the Crandi Aborigines, life is a lot harder.

The attitude of the East Coasters towards the indigenous peoples is undoubtedly extremely cruel and inhumane. Historically, Westerners may have spared their lives to the aborigines of the colonies, because most of their pursuit was commercial interests, but for the East Coasters, their only pursuit of the colony was land and resources, and their attitude towards the aborigines was extremely cruel, basically either killing or exile, it can be said that the East Coast people were the most ferocious and unpopular colonists with barbarians. Therefore, the attitude of Liao Xiaoyao and others towards the Klandi people is the same as that towards the Guarani people and the Charruya, that is, kill! If you can't kill it, you will be exiled overseas!

Considering that the East Coasters now appeared in La Plata as liberators, it was inconvenient for them to massacre the Crandis at will, so they had to find a way to arrest some of the Crantis who had committed crimes, and then escort them on transport ships to go overseas, and exile these prisoners to the overseas colonies to fend for themselves.

It was against this background that the first concentration camp was established outside Buenos Aires. The camp was home to a large number of criminals who had committed crimes - obviously many innocent people, but who cares, some of them may have committed minor crimes such as the theft of a chicken, or they may have been serial murderers, but in the military-administered region of La Plata, they all ended up in exile.

Of course, exile is also divided into three, six, nine, and so on. For example, those who committed lesser crimes and did not have much hostility to the East Bank Republic were exiled to the riverine region of South Africa, where the conditions were relatively good, to farm; Those who were less guilty of the offences and less hostile to the Republic of the East Coast were exiled to two settlements in Australia, where grazing was not impossible to live on, although the land was barren, commerce was not prosperous, and there were no fisheries or mineral resources worth mentioning; The last remaining men were of course the most heinous or hostile to the Republic of the East Coast, and the gendarmerie mercilessly dispatched them to the island of New China, which was so much to talk about. The plantations, mines and lumber yards of Tacheng Port, Xinhua Port and St. Mary's Island will be where they will live for the rest of their lives. They will use their lives to contribute to the development of tropical land in the eastern coast of China in the tropical wilderness where plague is rampant.

"There are already a lot of Spaniards who have expressed their willingness to go to the overseas colonies." When the second lieutenant of the military police Guo Puxia heard this, he replied, "Since the registration of Spanish residents who volunteer to go overseas began this month (December), 577 Spanish residents from 129 households have come to register. This group of people said that it was inconvenient for them to accept it, so they were all arranged to cultivate in the area of Gouda Township (formerly Gouda Fort) in South Africa. In addition, a small number of Klandis, who are tired of the chaos - probably less than a hundred - will also be assigned to the town of River, South Africa, where they will do their old job of herding. To be precise, grazing sheep on state pastures will not be officially allotted five acres of land until the expiration of the three-year period. ”

In fact, most of the more than 500 Spaniards were not white Spaniards in the narrow sense of the word, most of them were residents from Naples, Austria, Sicily, Hungary, Bohemia, and a very small number of white people from Catalonia. These people did not identify with the Kingdom of Spain, and were basically new immigrants who had been brought to La Plata by the Spanish king in the last ten years, and at this moment, faced with the chaotic situation and the dangerous situation of the white people, they immediately accepted the conditions of the East Coast to settle in South Africa. After all, life there is said to be very stable, the barbarians have been defeated by civilized people, and the personal safety of themselves and their families seems to be guaranteed.

"Continue to strengthen publicity." Liao Xiaoyao smiled after hearing this, and said: "For example, about this kind of case, you can do a good job of publicity, which can make those white Spanish residents and some of the Krandi people who don't want to toss realize that they are not safe, and they need to go to a safer place." Remember, we are all digging up the roots of the Spaniards in La Plata, and at the same time strengthening our own strength. Even if we want to return La Plata to the Spaniards in the future for some unavoidable reason, we have to make sure that the Spaniards get a blank slate. I don't know how many years and how much money it will take them to restore this place to contain us, and I really doubt that the Spaniards will be able to do that. (To be continued......)
