1197 The waist rod is stiff
When Putmans heard this, he was furious, stared at the man and asked, "Didn't you hear what was said?" If you're not here to sign up for Kapitan, just get out of here! β
"Old Su is old, so he will die." The man didn't roll, but continued, "He is our Kapitan, there is no need to change Kapitan!" β
Hearing this, Putmans was even more angry, when did he speak so badly! He immediately shouted: "Come on, catch this monkey and hang it here to show the public, and if you dare to refuse to obey the order, this is the end!" β
As soon as he said this, two Dutch soldiers came forward to arrest him.
In the crowd of onlookers, there was a commotion, but there were soldiers who pressed it.
Su Minggang was hung there, although he was gagged, he could hear it, and the tears couldn't help but flow, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
Just now, this person was hanging next to Su Minggang, and he was also gagged, and the scene was quiet again.
With a sneer on his face, Putmans looked at the man and thought to himself, this group of monkeys, who used to be quite docile and a good dog, now dare to go against their masters, it is really against the sky, they have to repair it well, let them remember it for a long time, here, the Dutch is the master!
Thinking so, he turned his head to look at the crowd around him again, and shouted loudly again: "There are many benefits of being a Jiabidan, if you want to be a Jiabidan, hurry up and sign up." Your Excellency the Governor has ordered, you must elect Kapitan before sunset today, and if it is late, it will be robbed by others, good opportunity, just this once! β
In the original history, this position of Kapitan was later bought with money. Many Ming people who have a little money will rush to buy this Jiabidan. After those families who have become Jiabidan taste the benefits of being Jiabidan, they will often become bound to Jiabidan and thus become a family system.
However, at this time, after Putmans said it, there was still no Akito come out to sign up. Each of them had anger on their faces.
Putmans didn't feel this situation at first, but after waiting for a long time and no one came out to sign up, and found that almost everyone in the Ming people looked at him with hatred, he couldn't sit still.
Could it be that these oriental monkeys really have to change their temperament? Not only is it not docile, but it is also not infighting, the interests of this Jiabidan are real, according to the past, it will definitely rush to do it, and even step on others to grab this Jiabidan!
Thinking like this, Putmans's face was a little unsightly, he stood up, slowly walked to the middle of the field, and then turned around in a small circle, looked at these bright people in front of him, and said with a cold face: "If any of you are afraid, after becoming Kapitan, you will be retaliated against by this Su Minggang people, I will emphasize to you here once, this Batavia, we Dutch have the final say." The rules set by us Dutch, if anyone dares not to follow them, the consequences are serious. If anyone dares to be rude to the Kapitan elected by us Dutch, we Dutch people will call the shots for Kapitan and all of them will be hanged! β
When he thought about it, there should be only this possibility. He didn't believe that these oriental monkeys would really change their temperament, and it must be for this reason. Now that I've said it, someone should sign up, right?
However, this time he was wrong! After he finished talking for a long time, there was still no one who stood up, and they all looked at him coldly.
This made Putmans feel a little incredible, he could have thought about everything, but these oriental monkeys were still like this, could it be ...... Are they really the right people to be?
I've grown so big, I've never seen anything really good at changing my character, how is this possible?
I don't know how long it was, but it seemed to Pettmans that it had been a long, long time, and at last, another man in the crowd came out of the crowd.
Seeing this, Putmans couldn't help but be overjoyed, and with the cold, high-minded expression he had before, he greeted him with a smile and said, "What's your name?" Don't worry, as long as you become Kapitan, we Dutch will protect you and will never let you be retaliated against! β
Who knows, the man didn't have a trace of gratitude at all, but just said with a righteous face: "Su Lao is our Jiabidan, there is no need to change." And there is one point, the villain wants to remind the adults that we are all Ming people, and there is no difference between us and the Ming people of Luzon. You Dutch have already forced many of us to death, and now you are going to hang Su Lao again, you have done too much, and our Ming Emperor knows about it, and he will definitely send an army to Batavia. The case of Manila, Luzon, is a case in point......"
Before he could finish his sentence, Putmans' face changed from joy to consternation, and then to rage. He didn't expect that the previously docile Ming man would dare to blackmail him in person, so angry that he jumped like thunder, and immediately pointed at this person and said loudly: "Come on, hang him up, hang him too!" β
Soon, another person was hoisted.
But as a result, no one in the crowd came out.
This time, Putmans was no longer naΓ―ve, and would have thought that Ariaki would take the initiative to become Kapitan! These oriental monkeys, who are really about to rebel, dare to speak out and threaten their masters!
He walked back and forth a little irritably, like a fly without a head.
At this time, he was a little aware of the continuous Mingren's reaction just now.
Whether it is Su Minggang or this person later, the reason why these docile Ming people have become like this is all because of the Luzon matter. It is because they feel that their motherland will not abandon them and will make decisions for them, so their waists are stiffened.
In this way, it can explain why their temperament has changed so much before and after!
In the past, they were docile because they knew that they had no choice but to listen to themselves as masters. If they want to live well, they can only listen to themselves as masters. Therefore, they will fight each other and will cater to their own master. The group of Ming people is actually a plate of loose sand, and ruthless people are easy to control.
But now, they have a strong motherland, and they have a centripetal force. When something happened outside, not only would they not fight each other anymore, but they could get together.
With this in mind, Putmans felt for the first time that this matter was a little tricky.
For the Dutch, the construction of Batavia came first and could not be delayed. But now, it is certain that these Ming people are unwilling to cooperate. With those natives, the craftsmanship is not as good as that of the Ming people, and they are also very lazy. Sometimes, it's better to use it than not to use it!
Originally, I thought that these people could be coerced by punishment, but now it seems that these Ming people are so united, not afraid of these punishments, and put forward their own demands.
What if you are not even afraid of death? What else can I do next?
The scene was so deadlocked, which made Putmans a little unable to wait. The Governor was still waiting for news, but if it continued like this, even after dark, nothing would come of it.
What to do?
Eventually, he couldn't wait, so he left his men and hurried back to the governor of Batavia.
When Kun saw Putmans enter the door, he couldn't help but smile and ask, "How many people have signed up for Kapitan?" Thirty or fifty? Let me pick one who is competent and loyal to my Netherlands! β
Hearing this, Putmans's face became more and more unsightly, and he immediately shook his head, a little difficult to explain, at least he didn't handle this matter well.
When Kun heard this, he was a little surprised and asked, "What do you mean?" Not so many people? That's fine, we just need one Kapitan, take the list, I'll choose one! β
Hearing this, Putmans had to speak: "Those Ming people have changed their temperament, and they actually decided that Su Minggang would be their Jiabidan, and no one else signed up for Jiabidan!" β
"What?" When Kun heard this, he immediately stood up from his chair, looked at him and asked, "What is the situation, why is this happening?" β
In his opinion, this was unimaginable.
He still has an impression. When Su Minggang brought a large group of Ming people to Batavia to work, he was overjoyed and ordered Su Minggang to be Jiabidan. At that time, he remembered very clearly, and there were many other people who were very disappointed. There are even a few who have secretly come to him in private, and they have said that they will definitely listen to their own words, and they will be better than Su Minggang.
Now that he has removed Su Minggang's Jiabidan, so that others have this opportunity to be Jiabidan, why is there no one else?
Putmans recounted the situation at the scene, and then expressed his guess: "These Ming people have heard that the Ming Kingdom has become stronger, and now it has expanded its power to the South Seas. In particular, what happened in Luzon gave them confidence. Therefore, they feel that their country will make decisions for them. They feel that they have been treated unfairly in Batavia, so they don't listen to us anymore! β
Hearing this, Kun's brows furrowed, his face was very ugly, and he muttered to himself: "How can this be, in this way, what should Batavia do?" No, absolutely not......"
Seeing that the Governor had no choice, Putmans was also helpless, it seemed that Akito was not even afraid of death, and there was really nothing he could do about them. But the construction period in Batavia cannot be delayed!
Thinking so, he tried to suggest: "Or, just pretend to agree to them, or let Su Minggang be the Kapitan and coax them to continue building Batavia first?" β
Hearing him speak, Kun glanced up at him, his eyes were a little cold, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "No, if they make a fuss and their requirements are met, there will still be trouble in the future." Do you think that in the future we will really treat them like those workers of our country? β
As soon as he heard this, Putmans immediately shook his head, treating these Ming people as if they were workers in his own country, that would certainly be impossible!
After Kun said this, he also had an idea in his heart, and immediately ordered: "In order to appease the emotions of these Ming people, you go and tell them that as long as they return to work, we will release all the hanging people!" Otherwise, if you dare to continue to disobey the order, you will all be hanged! β
This is a soft surrender to the Ming people! Putmans was also helpless in his heart, when did the colonists who went out soften to the local natives? Is!
Thinking so, he asked Kun Dao again: "Didn't you choose Jiabidan either?" Continue to let Su Minggang serve? β
"No, it's absolutely not going to work!" When Kun heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "Su Minggang is no longer just an obedient dog, and he can't be allowed to control Mingren anymore." Kapitan, I have another way! β
"Do you want those natives to be Kapitan?" When Putmans heard this, he guessed with a little surprise, "Those natives are all uncivilized people, and they don't even know if they have been fooled by the Ming people!" β
If it weren't for the fact that those natives had all kinds of shortcomings, they wouldn't have used it!
When Kun heard this, he shook his head and said, "No, send a message to Liu Xiang and ask him to send his subordinates over to help us take care of these Ming people!" Only when a wise person manages a bright person, can a wise person be managed well! Do you understand? β
As soon as he heard this, Putmans couldn't help but suddenly realize. That's right, aren't there still Liu Xiang pirates! These people are all wanted criminals in the Ming Kingdom, so naturally it is impossible to have the same mind as the Ming Kingdom, let them help manage the Ming people here, it is just a trivial matter for them, this is completely okay!
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Kun speak again, and his voice was a little calm: "Sooner or later, we will have to compete with the Ming Kingdom for hegemony in the South Seas, and these Ming people think that with a strong motherland, they can bargain with us." This wind can't last! Otherwise, whether it is a Ming person or an indigenous, they will run to curry favor with the Ming Kingdom. I don't want that! Hum! β
Hearing this, Putmans was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked, "I don't know what His Excellency the Governor has?" β
"When the construction of Batavia is completed, it will be liquidated in blood!" Kun said coldly, "In this way, the situation in Batavia, they can only take it underground!" β
Hearing him say this, Putmans was also very much in favor of it, otherwise Batavia was built by these Ming people. When they go back, won't they be able to tell the Ming side about the situation in Batavia!
So, both of them set this strategy to deal with Akito.
In the original history, the Dutch eventually slaughtered the Chinese in Batavia, and the blood flowed like a river, so that all the rivers in the city built by the Chinese turned red, so the river was finally renamed "Red Creek", known as the "Red Creek Massacre" in history.
When this matter reached the Central Plains, it was already the world of the Manchu Qing Dynasty at that time, and the reply given to this matter was: The slain overseas Chinese were "self-abandoning the king", "born in another place, and in fact no different from the people", and "the Han race in the other place, sanctified from outside", so the massacre of the Chinese was "a matter that can be harmed, but in fact the evil was done by itself", and "the Holy Dynasty" does not need to be blamed.
And in this plane, colonists are dogs who can't change their, and their colonial nature dictates that massacres will still happen, no matter what the reason. Because in their eyes, the Ming people are not human at all. But today's Da Ming is no longer the original Da Ming, they want to slaughter the Ming people, and they have to ask the powerful Da Ming, agree or not!
