After the military meeting, the General Staff began to work out an operational plan in full swing. 怐怑

Li Civilians began to activate hidden spies in various places and give his orders.

The spies hidden as merchants in Britain and France have become legitimate local residents, and their appearance, resumes, living habits, religious beliefs, etc. are no different from the locals, even if they are traced for generations, they will not find any problems, they are all legitimate and legal businesses, pay taxes normally, interact with the locals normally, and even intermarry, no one can imagine that they are hardcore spies of the Xia Empire.

In normal times, they lived the life of ordinary people, and only Li civilians could get in touch with them through special radio stations and arrange tasks for them.

At the appointed time, Li civilians contacted them and gave instructions to the corresponding spies.

The first to act were the spies lurking in Britain and France, when the "Yellow Peril Theory" was hyped up, and the spies began to publicize among familiar businessmen that the Chinese had stolen their customers, which greatly reduced profits and increased costs.

In the context of promoting the "Yellow Peril" theory, this kind of rhetoric is easily accepted by the white people around it, and it does not arouse anyone's suspicion, otherwise, it makes people feel abnormal.

In normal times, due to the diligence of Chinese merchants and the long opening hours of shops, they are closed from morning to late, and even on weekends and holidays, which is regarded as a serious threat by local lazy merchants.

Now there are people behind the scenes, and newspapers, magazines, etc. are also trying to promote this idea, and the lie repeated a thousand times will become the truth, and the local businessmen who do not know the truth are soon agitated.

Some ruffians and hooligans secretly hired by spies also joined the ranks of these businessmen and began to smash and loot Chinese shops.

The first to act were rich, and for those ruffians and hooligans they simply got rich overnight, which made many timid people and people with hot eyes participate in this game one after another; Merchants rejoice that they have fewer competitors, factory owners rejoice that they have reduced their imports and increase sales of local products, and the police often arrive late after the robbery is over, and the conflicts are generally characterized as personal grievances, all of which are dismissed, and none of them have been solved. 怐怑

Similar actions seem to be a joy for all.

Without proper punishment for the perpetrators, this kind of violence began to spread wildly everywhere, in large cities, small cities, and even towns.

A similar situation occurred in Britain and France, and the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Spain and other places quickly followed suit, or even surpassed.

Fortunately, these people only looted supplies and smashed shops, and rarely caused casualties; Moreover, the embassies and consulates of the Xia Empire all received telegrams from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which could ensure the personal safety of merchants; Merchants had long known about the "Yellow Peril Theory" and had long been warned by imperial diplomats to flee the scene in time after the smashing incident, and quickly went to the embassy for refuge, and some merchants even sent children and women to live in the embassy in advance.

Seeing that the people were restrained and did not cause casualties, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Xia Empire only sent a telegram of strong condemnation and did not take further action, making them more willing to have this kind of violence, and the benefits to their own countries were self-evident.

As a result of the government's connivance, this kind of incident quickly spread to colonial cities, and South Africa, India, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Vietnam, and even Brazil and Argentina in South America also began to do similar things, but there were very few local Chinese, and no more violence occurred.

Of course, the most serious thing is the British and French colonies, especially Australia, New Zealand, Yangon and other places, these places are controlled by British political prisoners, they have been holding back their anger for three years, and finally began to vent, they not only robbed the shops of the Chinese, but in the end, even the shops of Britain and France and other countries began to smash and rob.

The development of the situation exceeded Zhang Wei's original imagination, but the top leaders of Britain and France did not realize the seriousness of the situation, and by the time they reacted, it was too late, and the violent incidents developed from simple looting and smashing to violent and bloody clashes between ethnic groups, and the conflict did not continue to expand.

After Germany and Russia saw the spread of this kind of violence, they felt that the Xia Empire had never done anything to suffer, and such a thing was a shame for a great power, and the Xia Empire could not let it go, and Britain and France and other countries really underestimated the Xia Empire; The two countries acted quickly, intensifying police patrols throughout the country and demanding that the military remain vigilant and strictly alert incidents to the Xia Empire's expatriates and merchants; At the same time, he contacted the embassy of the Xia Empire, and the ambassador of the Xia Empire greatly appreciated the political vision of Germany and Russia, expressed his gratitude for their actions in protecting the expatriate, and demanded that the personal safety of the expatriate be guaranteed no matter what.

At the same time, the Chinese diaspora and businessmen around the world began to evacuate in an organized manner; Now that the domestic economic development momentum of the Xia Empire and the Chinese Empire is good, there is no need to continue to exchange their lives for money abroad, returning to China is a very good choice, and you can also choose to settle in Lu and Qi, with more choices, these Chinese will not stubbornly make senseless sacrifices under the persuasion of the local embassy personnel.

The actions of the Xia Empire were considered a sign of weakness, and the British and French people believed that this was a victory for the people, and no matter how strong the Xia Empire was, it was impossible to be an enemy of the entire white world, and their warships and troops did not dare to come to Europe to protect overseas Chinese.

British and French politicians believed that it would be a good move to drive out the merchants of the Xia Empire and vacate the market through the power of the people, so that domestic products could fill the gaps and relieve the pressure on the government.

And the British and French high-level also tested the bottom line of the Xia Empire, that is, there could be no casualties and loss of some property, and the Xia Empire could still accept it, so they allowed this kind of violence to happen, and even they laughed at the conservatism of Germany and Russia, cowardly, and frightened by the Xia Empire, even the Netherlands and Belgium and other countries.

In order to test the attitude of Britain and France and divert the attention of Britain, France, the Netherlands, and other countries, Lu Weimin instructed Li civilians to create similar violent activities in British Guiana, French Guiana, and Dutch Guiana in late July. At the same time, the General Staff of the Lu State was instructed to send troops to the West Indies and South America as soon as possible to carry out overseas protection operations, and to occupy all the colonies of LinkedIn, France and the Netherlands in the region.

In the West Indies and South America, since 1806, a large number of Chinese indentured laborers have arrived one after another, and in various islands and colonies, there are still a large number of Chinese, some of these Chinese are working on British and French plantations, some are doing business, and some Chinese are already small plantation owners and small workshop owners.

It is easier and more convenient to create violence in these places than in large cities; The violence in these places was exacerbated by the involvement of local blacks and Indian indentured laborers, resulting in many casualties among Chinese, blacks, mestizos, and whites.

The most serious was the British colony of Trinidad and Tobago, where local spies secretly shot blacks and Indians to stir up their contradictions, and then spread rumors, and blacks and Indian indentured laborers increased the level of hatred for whites.

At the same time, spies also secretly assassinated some whites and mixed-race people, blaming blacks and Indian indentured laborers, causing whites to increase their management of blacks and Indian indentured laborers.

As the conflict intensified, blacks and Indians gradually began to revolt, attacking first the white manor houses and then the towns; With the covert help of the spies, many manors were easily breached, so that the people involved made a lot of profits, stimulated more people to join the riot team, the more people, the greater the courage, gradually the towns were occupied, all the whites who did not flee were killed, and the whites who were killed were as many as hundreds, and the contradictions have reached an irreconcilable level.

The British army and police began to fight back, causing thousands of casualties among blacks and Indian indentured laborers, and many Chinese were affected and suffered unjustly.

There were so many uprisings and riots in the colonies of the West Indies that everyone was accustomed to it, and the British and French governments did not pay attention to it at all.

They have resisted for hundreds of years, and only a few islands have gained independence, and even after independence, they still can't change the fate of being enslaved by Britain and France, and can only provide Britain and France with the cheapest raw materials, and become a dumping ground for industrial products; Moreover, they have lost the management of Britain and France, various uprisings and coups have emerged one after another, and the people's lives have become more difficult, and they have not lived well in the colonial period.

Lu Weimin was very satisfied with the events that occurred in the West Indies and South America, and said to Li civilian: "I really underestimated you before, but I didn't expect to make such a big move, but it only caused a lot of casualties among the Chinese, so it's not easy to explain to Your Majesty, right?" ā€

Li Minmin said indifferently: "Hey, it's all because I'm usually too spoiled with those little cubs, and I didn't expect them to plan such a big uprising; Even if there are Chinese casualties, they can't be counted on our heads, embassies and consulates around the country have mobilized these people, hoping that they will transfer to the country of Lu, the country of Lu is vast and sparsely populated, and the government will compensate them for their land, but they do not obey the arrangements of the empire and resolutely do not leave, I have no choice, people must be responsible for their choices, and use their sacrifices in exchange for the greater interests of the empire, which can be regarded as contributing to the empire, it is worth it, but your army has to avenge them, and the Chinese cannot die in vain. ā€

"Haha, don't worry, you'll know the result soon; Your Majesty has been in Lu for so long, and has paid such a big price to the United States, just to occupy the West Indies and find a foothold in South America, we can achieve Your Majesty's goal without much effort, Your Majesty will only be happy, and will not care about those who have sacrificed, maybe it will be possible to give you an additional official rank. Lu Weimin comforted.

After the violent bloodshed in the British Trinidad and Tobago colony, the violence was pushed to a climax, and Lu Weimin immediately issued an order to Feng Guohua to protect the overseas Chinese.
