On January 15, 1895, a dozen or so wealthy Spanish businessmen came to the central square together, and saw a circle of people around the center of the city, mostly Chinese, but also Filipinos and Spaniards.

The little rich merchants squeezed into the crowd, only to see a high platform set up in the middle of the square, on which a long table was placed, on one side of the long table, sat a handsome, sturdy young man, some of the small rich merchants recognized this young man, and quietly said to his companions: "He is the emperor of the Chinese Empire - Lin Fei!" ”

The little rich businessmen couldn't figure out what Lin Fei asked them to do, so they stood on the edge of the crowd and didn't dare to step forward, when Lin Fei's staff officer He Kaisheng came over and said to the rich businessmen: "Please come to the table, our majesty has something to say to you." ”

As soon as the little rich businessmen were about to hesitate, a few soldiers with guns standing behind He Kaisheng stepped forward and pointed their guns at the rich businessmen, how dare the rich businessmen say a word, obediently walked up to the high platform, walked to the table, greeted Lin Fei for a while, and sat on the chair.

Lin Fei looked at the little rich businessmen and sneered, and said, "I read your information, almost every one of you owns a factory or shop, am I right?" ”

The little rich businessmen nodded one after another, and Lin Fei laughed loudly: "I asked you to hand over the factory or shop to me, are you willing?" ”

Which of the little rich businessmen is willing? But Lin Fei has military power, who dares to say the word "no"? They all nodded in agreement, but they were not willing to give up their wealth to Lin Fei easily, so they played the bitter card one after another, and a wealthy businessman led by him said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, we all point to the factory to feed our family, if you take away the factory, our family will starve to death." ”

Lin Fei thought to himself, you people don't know how much blood and sweat you have squeezed out the Chinese, and you don't starve to death! Lin Fei didn't say it directly, but said with a smile: "We will pay a ransom money, it's enough for you, come on, give them the ransom money!" ”

After Lin Fei said this, a few staff officers behind him walked up to the little rich businessmen with paper bags one by one, put one in front of each of them, and then walked down, Lin Fei pointed to the paper bag with his hand, and said with a smile: "Open it and take a look." ”

The little rich businessmen looked at the paper bag with their eyes lit up, and they all thought, what could it be? Gold? Peso? When they opened the paper bag, they were dumbfounded, only to see that there was a pile of paper with patterns printed on it, and "100" was written on the paper, as well as Chinese characters, and someone who knew Chinese characters read out the Chinese characters: "Long live the Chinese Empire, issued by the Central Bank of the Chinese Empire." ”

A wealthy merchant cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, what is this?" ”

Lin Fei smiled: "That's RMB, and it's the first thing I want to announce." ”

After Lin Fei finished speaking, he gave He Kaisheng a look, He Kaisheng stood up and walked into the city government, when He Kaisheng's voice came from the loudspeaker in the big square: "Wuduancheng has become a part of the Huaxia Empire, and the currency used should be the same as that of the Huaxia Empire. ”

The people didn't react when they heard this, because most of them didn't understand the economy, but the little rich merchants were different, they understood too well what the point of changing money was, which meant that Lin Fei could casually print a bunch of paper to exchange the wealth of the Spaniards, whether it was gold, grain, cotton or ore!

The little rich businessmen scolded in their hearts that they took away our wealth by printing a bunch of paper! You Chinese pigs say that we are robbers, I think you Chinese pigs are robbers, the biggest robbers in the world! The most shameless robber in the world!

The little rich businessmen can only scold in their hearts, which face dares to show a little dissatisfaction? They all had to smile and nod in agreement, and applaud.

Lin Fei said loudly at this time: "Now I announce that the public trial conference has officially begun!" ”

The Chinese in the audience cheered, but the wealthy businessmen frowned, and they all thought: "Public trial conference? Who is going to be tried publicly? It's not going to be a public trial, is it? We have also done things to exploit the Chinese, this Lin Fei will not take this opportunity to kill us all, right? ”

The wealthy businessmen were all frightened, and Lin Fei said loudly: "The first person I want to try is the commander of the garrison of Wuduan City, Reddick Jackson, bring him up!" ”

The garrison of Wuduancheng is not far from the city, so the people in the garrison force bully the Chinese, Jackson especially looks down on the Chinese, and the Chinese also know how powerful he is, and regard him as a plague god, today I saw that Lin Fei dared to escort him to the public trial in front of everyone, and suddenly felt a bad breath, and I had a little more respect for Lin Fei.

Several fighters escorted Jackson to the high platform, and Jackson had long lost his former majesty, bowing his head like a plucked rooster.

Lin Fei said loudly: "Do you all know about the plague in the city? ”

Everyone nodded, and Lin Fei continued: "Everyone knows that some people say that the plague was caused by poisoning by the Chinese, right? How could a plague be caused by poisoning? Isn't it ridiculous to say that such a statement is ridiculous? ”

Everyone commented: "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!" "They just want to harm us Chinese!" "That's right, they used this excuse to kill a lot of people and rob a lot of money!"

Lin Fei stretched out his hand and pressed down, and said loudly: "Everyone be quiet!" ”

Everyone gradually quieted down, Lin Fei pointed at Jackson with his hand, and said: "He is the initiator of slandering the Chinese poisoning and massacring the Chinese, so I decided to sentence Jackson to death in accordance with the provisions of the Criminal Law of the Chinese Empire, and execute it immediately!" ”

Everyone let out a high-pitched cheer, at this time, the Huaxia Empire did not have a written legal code, but Lin Fei said so in order to appear reasonable.

Lin Fei waved his hand, and the two fighters escorted Jackson off the high platform and pulled him to the crowd, one of the fighters kicked heavily on Jackson's knee, Jackson fell to the ground with a scream of pain, he knew that Lin Fei would not spare him, and he did not plead, and closed his eyes silently.

A soldier raised his gun and pulled the trigger on Jackson's head, the bullet punched a large hole in Jackson's head, and the dead body fell to the ground with a "poof".

After Lin Fei finished interrogating Jackson, he brought several high-ranking officials in the army over, sentenced them to death for the crime of killing Chinese, and executed them in front of everyone, and then escorted the mayor, police chief, and other high-ranking officials to everyone and shot them one by one.

The purpose of Lin Fei's killing of high-ranking officials is to deter the Spaniards and the Filipinos who worked for the Spaniards, and sue them to be honest, otherwise these people will be your fate!

Lin Fei said to the little rich merchants: "You have also seen my means, go back and tell the big rich merchants who have several factories and shops, and obediently hand over the factories and shops, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind!" ”

The little rich businessmen nodded in fright, Lin Fei raised his voice and said sharply: "Tomorrow!" Tomorrow morning, I will personally take people to the factories and shops of those rich merchants to receive them, and if there is any rebellion by the factory guards, then don't blame me for not recognizing the gun in my hand. Okay, that's all for today's meeting, adjournment. ”

The little rich businessmen were so frightened that they ran away, Lin Fei asked people to put away the corpses, dig a pit and bury them casually, and then said to Niu Dalong and Niu Dahu: "My actions today should be able to scare the Spaniards, and tomorrow's reception should be smoother, you can take people to rest." ”

Niu Dalong and Niu Dahu led the people to rest, they were stationed around the city government, and Lin Fei lived in the city government, which is now Lin Fei's office center in Wuduan City, and all orders to command the Chinese were issued from here.

It was getting dark, and Lin Fei, who had been busy all day, lay on the big bed in the mayor's room, thinking in his heart, Today's things are relatively smooth, but I can't take it lightly, those rich businessmen will definitely make evil moves to resist, what evil tricks will they make......

Lin Fei thought about it and fell asleep, I don't know how much time had passed, suddenly heard a rapid gunshot, Lin Fei was excited, turned over and sat up, and asked loudly, "Where to shoot?" ”

A soldier ran in and said, "It's east of the city hall, there is a large group of Spaniards who are going to attack the city hall, and we are fending them off. ”

When Lin Fei heard this, he immediately rushed to the east window, stretched out his hand to push the window open, and looked east, only to see that there were flickering fires everywhere in the east, and in the firelight, a large group of Spaniards were rushing to the front of the house where his subordinates lived.

"Boom, boom" A loud sound came from the east, and the dazzling firelight lit up the night sky, Lin Fei knew that it was the guard troops who used grenades, Lin Fei was shocked, and secretly thought that he wanted to use grenades? It seems that there are a lot of enemies! Against such a dense enemy, the Maxim heavy machine gun is the most suitable.

In the daytime battle the day before yesterday, Lin Fei's command used a mortar to kill a Makqin heavy machine gun, and the other seven vehicles were dragged out by the frightened horses.

When Lin Fei entered the city, he asked people to bring in five heavy machine gun vehicles and put them in the city government to deal with emergencies, but he didn't expect them to come in handy now, Lin Fei said to the soldiers: "Sue the artillery company, take the five medium and heavy machine gun vehicles to the east to meet ......"

Lin Fei said this, and suddenly changed his words: "Don't just go to the east, I think the Spaniards are very likely to come from four directions, send two gates to the east first, and the others to the west, north and south respectively!" ”

The soldier shouted yes and ran out, and when the artillery company was dispatched, it was not necessary for the artillery company to go out with mortars and Makqin heavy machine guns, and at this time the Chinese city guards organized by Lin Feixin also rushed to participate in the battle.
