Chapter 646: Guessed Out of My Mind

Gavina was both depressed and puzzled that since he and some officials were sent back to the Governor's Palace, he had lost contact with the outside world, and the courtyard was guarded by NLD soldiers, and no one was allowed to enter or leave except for the daily fixed food and water, and the request to meet with Boss Chen and the NLD high-level was repeatedly refused, which was actually equivalent to house arrest.

The performance of the NLD in Singapore was also a big surprise, and no measures to improve people's livelihood and politics were taken to improve people's livelihood and politics, the key point is that the existing naval forces could not control Singapore for a long time, and they could only turn a deaf ear to the various demands of the local Chinese, except for repairing warships, they were raiding the property of the British, Malays and Indians, and massacring the Malays, and robbing their beautiful women.

Fortresses have fallen, villages have been burned to ashes, boatloads of corpses have been thrown into the sea, and they have become a delicacy for large marine fish, and even the fire of war has reached the island of Kalimantan on the other side of the strait.

It took twenty days to repair the warship, and the massacre and looting lasted for more than half a month, destroying nearly 50 Malay settlements and killing nearly 100,000 people, but only about 1,000 young and beautiful women were gained.

Why is the proportion so low? Because the Malays are of mixed blood between yellow and dwarf blacks, and unlike the Japanese who tend to be genetically yellow and yellow, the dwarf black race is dominant in the Malay bloodline.

As the name suggests, dwarf black people are short and black, and have a wide nose, curly hair, and similar body characteristics to Africans, which is inferior to Vietnamese, and most of them have Chinese ancestry.

The nearly 1,000 girls were all from the Malay aristocracy and had superior living conditions. It is considered to be a relatively outstanding maintenance.

In addition to this, the NLD army also plundered several boxes of documents, 50 tons of gold, 800 tons of silver, 2,000 tons of copper, pounds sterling, and dollars. Foreign currencies such as guilders were worth a total of six million pounds, along with large quantities of fruit, grain, rubber, and some coal.

The coal that could not be taken away was burned on the spot, and all the livestock and poultry such as cattle, chickens, ducks and so on were eaten.

The batteries that had posed a great threat to the NLD fleet were also blown up, and the British artillery and shells were left useless, because the NLD armament had been standardized. All correspond to the standard caliber, so all thrown into the sea.

It can be said that the wealth that Britain has accumulated in Singapore for decades has been plundered. The foundation has also been destroyed, and it is impossible to recover it in a few years.

Twenty days later, in the early morning of December 1. A battleship of the NLD Army. Seven frigates, seven gunboats, forty-two transports, one cruiser and more than four hundred transports captured by the British, sailed towards Manila.

"Your Excellency the Governor, Your Excellency the Governor, the NLD forces have retreated." A disheveled officer hurried to the governor's palace.

"What. The NLD is gone? Gavenna asked incredulously.

Twenty days under house arrest was anything but pleasant, and Gavinner never saw the light of day. His face was pale, his eyes were blank, and his steps were a little vague.

The adjutant followed up and asked, "When did you leave?" How are our people? Has the damage been investigated? ”

The officer said with a sad face: "I just left, although our people were not harmed, they took all the ships away, and Singapore was also looted, and I heard that they also massacred the Malays, including Singapore and many nearby Malay villages were exterminated." ”

"You guys go investigate the damage, I'll go to the port first!" Gavenner's face was extremely ugly.

"Your Excellency the Governor, there is no need to investigate." The officer said angrily: "All our money has been robbed, even the jewelry and gems worn by women have been taken off, we have nothing, we have become poor, and even the Democratic Alliance army has not left us much food, only guns and bullets have not moved." ”

“Fuck!” Gavenner roared and hurried out.

About an hour later, the group came to the harbor, and Gavina almost fainted on the spot, and sure enough, the ship was gone, and the harbor could only be described as dead silence, and the fort was even bare, and occasionally scattered with stones that had been smashed into strange shapes.

"What about the artillery, the artillery is so heavy, isn't it too troublesome for the Democratic Alliance to take it away?" Gavenna roared.

"Thrown into the sea by the NLD forces." An officer was powerless.

Looking at the bridgehead of the British Empire at the eastern end of the Strait of Malacca, Gavina also felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, according to the estimation of the Democratic Alliance, it will take several years to rebuild Singapore, but is it really that simple?

Why did the coalition fleet bring so many transport ships? Because the NLD Army has forged his glory with an undefeated record, any enemy will be cautious in the face of the NLD Army, and the coalition fleet is no exception.

During the Qingying War, the British Marines attacked cities and plundered land in Chinese mainland as if no one was in a land, but in less than 20 years, the land became a forbidden area for foreign soldiers, and the navy soldiers abandoned the ship and went ashore to be easily surrounded and annihilated by superior forces.

However, if the logistics are robbed, it will not be long before there will be problems with fuel, ammunition, and food supplies, which will force the navy soldiers to go ashore to find supplies, and they will also be in danger, and if they are not careful, I am afraid that this fleet will not be able to return.

If this fleet is destroyed in China, will European countries still have the ability to send an expeditionary fleet of this magnitude? Obviously, it is impossible, or even if it has the ability, it will be treated cautiously, so that there will be a military vacuum in the Far East sea, and this vacuum will soon be filled by the NLD Navy, Singapore, as a port isolated overseas, will be under major threat in terms of security, is it worth investing heavily in reconstruction?

Moreover, the current situation in India, the rear of Singapore, is in a mess, and it is difficult to fully support the construction of Singapore.

It's just that the loss of Singapore is equivalent to the loss of the Strait of Malacca, and the result of the control of the Strait of Malacca by the Democratic Alliance forces can only be the expulsion of the European powers from Southeast Asia!

"China, Qing Dynasty, Singapore, Southeast Asia, the Philippines, India" Gavina muttered to himself, with an indescribable irritability in his heart, losing the colonies in the Far East, European countries will be beaten back to their original shape, especially Britain, it can be said that India is equivalent to Britain's little cock, and losing India is equivalent to castrating Britain.

"Nakong, Nakong!" Gavinner suddenly turned his head and drank.

Naikon is a personal name, and he is Gavenna's favorite Malay counselor, but after shouting twice, no one answers, Gavon Nai asks, "Where is Naikon?" ”

An adjutant smiled bitterly and said, "Your Excellency the Governor, the NLD army slaughtered the Malays in and around Singapore, except for the two unmarried daughters and a few young and beautiful daughters-in-law who were snatched away, Naikon and his clansmen nearly 100 were killed. ”

Gavina burst into a rage and said: "The Democratic Alliance forces have killed innocents indiscriminately and robbed civilians, and I want to expose his atrocities to the international community!" ”

No one answered this, everyone knows that today's world is a world where whoever has the biggest fist is justified, so what if it is exposed? Even if the NLD army did not kill the British, killing a few Malays would not cause much repercussions in Britain.

As if aware of this, Gavina softened his mood and asked, "What about the Chinese in Singapore?" Did the NLD reach any agreement with them? ”

"That's the strange thing!" One officer was puzzled: "The famous Chinese in Singapore have asked to see Chen Guide many times, but this person always looks for all kinds of excuses to prevaricate, and finally he doesn't even say hello when he leaves, as if he is afraid to meet the Chinese in Singapore." ”

"Huh?" Gavina secretly wondered, Boss Chen's behavior was too abnormal, what was he afraid of?

Judging from his status, he shouldn't be a timid person at all.

Naturally, Gavinner remembered that Boss Chen did not accept his saber, in the Western world, the commander presented the sword to the enemy is the meaning of surrender, if it is a closed and ignorant Qing country, it can still be understood if it does not understand Western etiquette, and the Democratic Alliance does not reject the West, and the trade with the West is getting closer and closer, especially the senior echelons of the Democratic Alliance Navy, most of them can speak fluent English, such as that Chen Guide, who speaks English quack, although the pronunciation is not very correct, but it does not affect communication, such an army, It is simply inconceivable that such a person does not understand Western etiquette.

"What's going on?" Is there any connection between the so-called fact that there must be a demon when things go wrong, and Boss Chen did not receive the Chinese representatives and did not accept the surrender of the British army?

After thinking for a while, Gavenna told his doubts to the left and right, and everyone on the left and right was also puzzled.

I don't want to do this kind of thing, and the more I think about it, the more abnormal I feel.

An officer muttered to himself: "The attitude of the Democratic Alliance towards the Chinese in Southeast Asia can be seen through the founding of Lan Fang, and he supports the independent establishment of the Chinese in Southeast Asia, but why does Chen Guide not see the Chinese in Singapore?" Don't you want them to build a state? It doesn't make sense. ”

"Wait!" Like a light in the dark, the founding of the country? These two words are the key, Gavina suddenly blessed his heart, shouted: "I understand, the geographical location of Singapore is extremely important, controlling Singapore is equivalent to choking the throat of the Southeast Asian islands, and even affecting the trade between Chinese mainland and Japan and Europe, such an important place, of course, the Democratic Alliance wants to take it into their own hands, and he absolutely does not want Singapore to become an independent country."

However, the NLD navy is now very small and does not have the ability to control Singapore, so Chen Gui Tak did not accept the surrender of our British army, nor did he confiscate our guns, because he needed us to continue to help the NLD army govern Singapore, prevent the local Chinese from becoming independent, and then recapture it when they have sufficient strength.

You must know that if Singapore becomes an independent sovereign country, the forcible occupation by the Democratic Alliance will chill the hearts of overseas Chinese, haha, no wonder Chen Guide is sneaky, originally using our British as a gunman! (To be continued......)
