Chapter 359: Evacuation of Overseas Chinese

Chen Shao has never been a person who sits idly by, and after learning about Japan's "Golden Lily" plan, he immediately set about formulating a set of plans for dealing with Japan's Golden Lily Plan.

But after thinking about it, Chen Shao couldn't think of any good way to stop or destroy it, and he didn't want to announce this plan now. It was originally his plan to let Japan scourge Southeast Asia, and although this plan seemed to make Chen Shao very angry, it was because Chen Shao saw this plan and reminded him of what happened to China in later generations.

Today, Japan's "Golden Lily" plan does not target China, nor does it target the Chinese diaspora in Southeast Asia. There is no need for Chen Shao to change his strategic approach and sabotage Japan's plan for the sake of those people. Anyway, Chen Shao is confident that he will get these things back exactly when the time comes.

In recent years, Japan has had a lot of cultural relics, gold and silver flowing into China, and Japan has willingly given them to China. For trade with Japan, Chen Shao does not want yen, as long as real money, or he can exchange cultural relics. It's just that this speed is very slow, and Japan's gold and silver reserves have been relatively rich since the plunder, so Japan has not yet reached the point where precious cultural relics are exchanged for resources.

The best way to stop this plan was to send a navy to intercept the gold, silver and jewels that the Japanese had collected. And this can only declare war on Japan, which is not in line with the set strategy. Therefore, in the end, Chen Shao still decided to watch the fire from across the strait, and as long as Japan did not offend the interests of overseas Chinese, he would not care about this matter. Later, when I take Japan to cut the knife, I will "take" these things back.

In addition to the golden lily, there was also a secret message from the Japanese base camp to Matsui Ishine, the commander of the Southeast Asian Dispatch Army.

"Secret telegram, destroy it immediately after receiving the order. The initial stage of the 'sweep' plan should be carried out in absolute secrecy, until the entire Malay Peninsula is captured, and an all-round 'sweep' should be carried out. ”

The so-called "sweeping" plan, as indicated in the intelligence, is an upgraded version of the war that feeds the war with war. The focus was on the Vietnamese region, because the ten "murderers" discovered by the Japanese army had all been arrested, and they were "enjoying happiness" in the water cage at this time. As for the confessions of these people, the Japanese side soon regarded the Vietnamese as the target of the key "sweeping".

And those ten people were arranged by Chen Shao, but they were not Chen Shao's people, but "borrowed" from a group called "Southeast Asian guerrillas" that had just emerged in Southeast Asia, and the members in it were basically composed of various ethnic groups in Southeast Asia, and there was no shortage of those Allied soldiers who were scattered. And their goal is very simple, they want to use sniper rifles to snipe the high-ranking Japanese generals and cause chaos. It's just very sad that at a specific time and a specific place, I met the Japanese army who were frantically searching for it.

As for all the above coincidences, they can only be said to be deliberately arranged. Under torture, someone confessed the purpose of this operation, so it was enough, and there was no need to know too much. Even if they said that they didn't kill Hatohiko of Asakanomiya, it would only lead to more cruel and inhumane torture, and in the end, many people were beaten into tricks.

As a result, the Japanese army aimed at this guerrilla force, unilaterally believing that behind this guerrilla force, it was the Allied forces who were supporting it, and its purpose was to undermine the stability of the Japanese rear.

Chen Shao can imagine that if Japan really carried out a "sweeping" plan in Southeast Asia, it is estimated that the whole of Southeast Asia will be empty. It may be more brutal than the Japanese massacre in Nanjing. However, Chen Shao did not intend to stop it. In his opinion, some ethnic groups are no better than Japan, and simply let Japan clean the whole of Southeast Asia, leaving behind a "clean" Southeast Asia.

However, this incident also reminded Chen Shao that this war will affect the whole world, and overseas Chinese will definitely not be able to protect 100% of the time at that time. The evacuation of overseas Chinese is already imperative, so we should prepare early and try to avoid making up for the loss.

Thinking of this, Chen Shao burned this "sweeping" information, leaving only the "Golden Lily" plan. "Sweeping" this matter he wants to take himself out as if he doesn't know anything.

Subsequently, the Chinese emperor's ** dignitaries were summoned to come to the Qinzheng Palace for a meeting.

The main content of this meeting is the work of evacuating overseas Chinese, and he must carry it out as soon as possible.

After a while, the officials who should have come were all present, and Chen Shao didn't talk nonsense.

"I have summoned you here today to announce one thing, I have decided to start the work of overseas evacuation, and all overseas Chinese in Europe and Southeast Asia, as well as in the Middle East and Africa, will be arranged by the government to be repatriated to China. The main targets of this evacuation are ordinary overseas Chinese citizens, but all Chinese who are non-government functionaries and the families of those functionaries must be withdrawn.

This is the first time that the evacuation of overseas Chinese has been carried out, and there must be many difficulties, which requires our staff to communicate with them well and strive to send every Chinese back to China safely. For those Chinese who resolutely do not return, we must repeatedly persuade them and tell them the benefits and disadvantages of the war.

The Sino-Ocean Group is responsible for the evacuation of overseas Chinese, and the military must also cooperate closely, especially with the navy, to ensure the personal safety of returned overseas Chinese, and our navy ships must escort each fleet.

As for the governments of various countries, Zong Li, let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs inform them one by one about this matter, and let them cooperate with our evacuation operation. ”

"Your Majesty, does it take so soon? Isn't something wrong? Wei Ren asked with some confusion.

"It's nothing, it's just that the war will be very widespread in the future, and I'm afraid we'll be drawn into it when the time comes. At that time, we may not be able to take care of overseas Chinese, and now we just need to prepare in advance to avoid unnecessary troubles in the future. Chen Shao said.

"Your Majesty, how to arrange the overseas Chinese who return to China." Zong left the mouth.

"As before, depending on one's wishes, those who want to return to their ancestral home can also choose a new home. And the identity should also be registered in detail to ensure that there are no mistakes. Chen Shao said.

In fact, in the past ten years, a large number of overseas Chinese have returned to China every year. Overseas Chinese also have a Chinese certificate issued by China, no matter where the nationality is, as long as they are Chinese, they can get a Chinese certificate of their own. This is also convenient for the government to control the number of overseas Chinese, and also try to gather these overseas Chinese to live together. Just like the German attack on Poland, the Chinese in Poland lived together in a concentrated manner, which avoided being accidentally injured by the Germans.

In Southeast Asia, many overseas Chinese live together with locals, although there are not many such phenomena now, but there are still a certain number.

Europe is Chen Shao's preparation, and the withdrawal of all Chinese in Southeast Asia is a must. Because he was worried that if the Japanese army killed the red eye, how would the officers restrain the soldiers? When the time comes, it's not all messy, and the appearance is almost the same, so it's easy to have accidents. Even though Chen Shao had already warned the Japanese, he still had no bottom in his heart, and he could not completely guarantee that the Japanese army would not make mistakes.

The meeting was moving very fast, and it was only about it. After the meeting, Chen Shao asked Wang Jie to prepare a televised speech for him. He wanted to personally hold a speech on the evacuation of overseas Chinese, broadcast the whole process live, and spread the news to all corners of the world as much as possible.

On the podium, Chen Shao was dressed in Hanfu and stood in front of the camera with a serious face:

"From Europe to Southeast Asia, war is inevitable. I am deeply saddened by the fact that no matter which side of the war profits, it is the civilians who suffer, as we have been taught since the First World War.

War is not what China wants to see, and China will always adhere to the principle of neutrality, which is China's unchanging national strategy in the future.

…… Today, the war in Europe and Southeast Asia is intensifying and has a momentum to continue. Today, I would like to announce to you once again one thing, in order to ensure the safety of the Chinese people as much as possible, we will withdraw all the overseas Chinese in Europe and Southeast Asia. The work of evacuating overseas Chinese began in earnest today.

Here, I hope that all the overseas Chinese can understand the caring heart of the empire. We are also doing this for the sake of everyone's safety, guns are not long-sighted, although the empire always stands behind you, but the whip is beyond the reach, and it is difficult for the empire to take care of every overseas Chinese at once. Once something happens, it will be irreparable.

Therefore, I hope that overseas Chinese in various localities will cooperate with the evacuation work and return to China as much as possible. Here, I would like to assure you that the evacuation of overseas Chinese will not cause you to suffer the slightest loss. ”

Chen Shao's words spread to the north and south of the river in an instant, not only to say, but also to insert a lot of pictures of the war, so that the people can clearly feel the cruelty of the war.

In the teahouse and in the neighborhood, you can hear the sound of discussion. After the live broadcast, everyone's topic was about the evacuation of overseas Chinese and the war, and the war had been shown on TV before, but for the first time, the people clearly felt the war.

"In the past, the empire did not evacuate the country, will the war last for a long time?"

"Isn't that good, didn't you see on TV that the whole city was almost razed to the ground? There are corpses everywhere, and if we were living in that kind of place, I'm afraid we wouldn't have had a chance to discuss it here. ””

"It seems that the Imperial Government must have known something, otherwise why would it suddenly propose to evacuate the nationals?"

"You're saying that overseas Chinese have been killed?"

"This is not certain, maybe it is because of preparedness, it is impossible to wait until something really happens, and then think about evacuating overseas Chinese, then it will be too late."

"This is the biggest move since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it should be rare in a century to withdraw all the expatriates from Europe and Southeast Asia."

...... "Fortunately, such a picture did not take place in the territory of the empire, otherwise it is not known how many people would have died. ”

"Don't worry, the empire was able to drive away a lot of foreigners back then, and let them obediently abolish the concessions and unequal treaties, and now the empire will only be stronger, and only those brain-dead people will come to provoke us."

"That is, now there is any country in the world that dares to say that it can win 100% against us."
