In the afternoon, the troops began to capture the Dutch throughout the Pontianak city limits and confiscate their assets. The Dutch did not dare to resist these troops, and each household had some more or less nursing homes, but how could they compete with the People's Army, which was armed to the teeth? Each platoon has 3 light machine guns, as well as at least 8 semi-automatic rifles, and 60 mortars, which, if they dare to resist, can turn them into pulp.

The natives who wanted to fish in troubled waters also sent them to where they should go, and the local Chinese still took refuge at home behind closed doors, and even large families did not dare to send people out to find out the news, and the gunshots that rang out from time to time were the best warning to them.

Lu Sifu was stationed in the tax bureau on the same day, and Zhang Wei gave him 20 staff members and a platoon of armed forces to escort him, and asked Lu Sifu to send someone to Shankouyang City as soon as possible to take up his post and take over the tax collection work there. The sign of the Lanfang Republic Tax Office was also hung at the door.

Li Civilians found a large Dutch manor house as the office of the Intelligence Department.

As for the General Staff, the Admiralty and the War Department, as well as the Government Council, they were located at the official residence in the Garr. On both sides of the gate are the signs of the General Staff of the Lan Phong People's Army and the Government Council of the Republic of Lan Fang, without any ceremony.

Zhang Wei also synthesized a special diplomat, named Wu Wenbin, familiar with English, French, German, Russian, Japanese, of course, the most familiar is Chinese, appointed as foreign minister; three senior diplomatic talents have been appointed as deputy foreign ministers; and a number of mid-level talents as clerks. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs found a Dutch house not far from the official residence of the Honourable Minister, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Lanfang hung outside the door.

The 4th Battalion was stationed at the former police station and temporarily exercised the mission of the police to maintain law and order in the city of Pontianak.

On the morning of December 11, both Pontianak City and Yamaguchi City posted notices that the Republic of Lan Phong had been established and that the Lan Phong People's Army had returned, and that the Lan Phong People's Army would protect the lives and property of the people of Lan Phuong, and announced the implementation of military control at this stage. At the same time, the "Lanfang Interim Tax Regulations" and the "Lanfang Interim Public Security Regulations" were also posted.

The Tax Regulations are simple, mainly 10% on planting and agriculture, and 5% on all other commercial transactions; Greatly reducing people's tax burden.

The Public Order Ordinance mainly stipulates that citizens shall not participate in acts such as burning, killing, looting, etc.

All the Chinese families spent the night in fear, and no one came to harass them, so they were relieved. Even if there is a war, you have to eat, so on the morning of the 11th, many families still quietly opened a crack in the door to look out, and found that the soldiers patrolling the street were all Chinese, wearing straight military uniforms, carrying brand-new rifles, patrolling in a neat line, turning a blind eye to the pedestrians on the street, and not harassing any merchants, so they dared to open the door. Are these soldiers the same bandits who were rumored to have slaughtered the natives? Some Chinese are starting to think cranky.

Gradually, by noon, many Chinese shops began to open, and Chinese people gradually went to the streets to buy daily necessities. These patrolling soldiers, although cold, but give people a sense of security from the heart, with such military protection, no longer afraid of the aborigines to do evil.

Originally, Zheng Daoping wanted to hold a grand inauguration ceremony, but Zhang Wei stopped it, this achievement was not worth it, and promised to have the opportunity to hold a grand inauguration ceremony for him, but it was time for the empire to be established.

The whole Pontianak gradually entered a state of normal operation, and people began to live a normal life, without any outsiders bothering them. For foreigners living in Pontianak, except for the Dutch, everything is going on as usual, and there is no interference with the business that should be done and the play that should be played.

However, the uniforms of the soldiers patrolling the streets completely conquered these people, whether they were foreigners or locals, they all felt that this kind of military uniform, with steel helmets and rifles, was really handsome, especially these soldiers were about 180 tall, wearing armed belts, and they looked tall and straight. With the average height of the current society less than 160, these Lanfang officers and soldiers are like gods of war.

The people also gradually noticed the sign hanging at the door of the official residence of the political officer, the Lanfang Republic is back again, these soldiers are the Lanfang People's Army, the news is spread among the Chinese, but also among foreigners, many Chinese are kneeling and crying, years of suffering finally came to an end, the Lanfang Army is back.

Early in the morning of December 11, Li Mengran also sent the 4th Regiment to occupy Sanfa, and the Admiralty sent 1 Type 1935 torpedo boat and 3 S6 fast torpedo boats to cooperate with the army to occupy Sanfa and temporarily block the entrance to the sea.

Early in the morning of December 11, several Chinese clans in Pontianak and Yamaguchiyang knew that this was Lan Fang's restoration of the country, could it be that these people were the bandits they had committed before? Many families regret why they didn't cooperate with the People's Army earlier, the uprising they prepared has not been prepared yet, and the People's Army has already arrived, and such a strong army will definitely be able to withstand the counterattack of the Dutch army. The heads of the various families began to discuss how they could get into a relationship with the KPA and gain a seat in the new government. In the afternoon, after the family set a strategy, several familiar patriarchs of the family also gathered together to discuss countermeasures, but now there is no good way, there is no longer a dragon skill, if you can mix up an official and a half-job, you will be lucky. I can only make a decision after understanding the policy of the People's Army, so I decided to go to the army first, mix up my face, and by the way, touch the details of the People's Army, and as for the time, it will be set for tomorrow morning.

On December 12, at 10 o'clock in the morning, the patriarchs of several Chinese families in Pontianak City led a group of nursing homekeepers, pulled more than a dozen carts of grain, wine, meat and other materials, as well as 200,000 taels of silver, to the Government Council of the Republic of Lanfang, asking to meet the chief steward.

Zheng Daoping did not have the time and energy to meet with these speculators. Zhang Wei said: "Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, if you don't go to the reception, the etiquette is unreasonable, so it's better for Staff Officer Han to receive it." ”

In the end, Han Xin came out to meet with everyone, Han Xin was wearing a military uniform, and these people regarded Han Xin as the supreme leader. Han Xin introduced himself and said: "I am Han Xin, I am the secretary of the Government Council for the time being, and Premier Zheng of the Government Council is very busy today, so I don't have time to meet with you, please bear with me." ”

"Secretary Han is the same, we are both Chinese, we should help each other, we should have come to the army yesterday, but I am afraid that your army has just arrived, and the work is complicated, and I am afraid that it will affect the work of your army, so I came today. I am Meng Qinglan, the patriarch of the Meng family in Pontianak, this is Zhao Jiguang, this is Li Daoyou, and this is Chen Jiakang. ”

"I've seen the patriarchs."

"I've seen Secretary Han."

"Please be seated, everyone"

"Secretary Xie Han."

After everyone was seated, Han Xin said: "On behalf of Premier Zheng, I would like to thank you for coming to the army to show the close friendship between our Chinese people, and I will report to Premier Zheng on your support for the People's Army." “

Meng Qinglan said: "Secretary Han is polite, this is a little affection from the Pontianak merchants to the People's Army, besides, we are all Chinese people, and we should take care of each other." ”

"Patriarch Meng is right, we Chinese people should take care of each other, and everyone can come to the People's Army if they have any difficulties in the future, and the People's Army will definitely not sit idly by and ignore your difficulties."

"Then we will thank Secretary Han for his help in advance."

After receiving Han Xin's promise, everyone sat down for a while and then left.
