Chapter 499: The Rebellion in the Polynesian Islands

Jiang Cheng got the news from Zhu Wei on the construction site where he was building a temporary residence, smiled and said to Zhu Wei next to him, "Do you have any ideas?" ”

Zhu Wei bowed his head and said, "Boss, most of the natives are bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and as far as I know, this aboriginal gathering has the instructions behind the local white people, you also know, we Chinese have always been discriminated against outside, and now these white people are polite to us because of the change in the situation, but they are not convinced in their hearts, after all, we all say that we are hired laborers and security forces."

Jiang Cheng snorted and said, "We have to consider the thoughts of those people in Hill, is there a force among the local natives that can be co-opted?" ”

Zhu Wei shook his head and said, "The natives here all obey those chiefs, and they believe that we are soft persimmons. And white people are not to be offended. ”

Jiang Cheng squinted his eyes and said, "Then you can't be polite, I don't want to guard against whether there will be a fire in the backyard here when we go out, the proletariat of the whole world is united, but it doesn't include those chiefs." ”

Zhu Wei immediately nodded and said, "I understand, I will find a way with Brother Ye." ”

At this time, Chen Qihan came over with a few soldiers, saluted Jiang Cheng and said, "Good host!" ”

Jiang Cheng returned the salute and said, "Team Chen, are you used to it now?" ”

Chen Qihan nodded and said with a smile: "I have been used to it in the past two weeks, and I have also started new training, the pamphlets on anti-landing and landing operations you gave are really well written, but it will take some time to master." ”

Jiang Cheng hummed and said, "The situation in the archipelago has been a little unstable recently, have you noticed?" ”

Chen Qihan nodded and said, "I just wanted to report this matter, in fact, there are many people among the natives who have come into contact with our red thoughts, so we quickly established several underground branches, from which we learned that they were preparing to hold a riot on April 9. ”

"On the 9th... You really know how to pick a day, these guys.... I can't see a good show. Jiang Cheng said with pity: "What are they going to do?" Is it to kill us? Or scare? ”

Chen Qihan sighed, "There may be the shadow of those foreign big noses behind this matter, and they didn't say that they wanted to show mercy to their subordinates. ”

Jiang Cheng took a breath and said, "Ge Ming is not a dinner invite, let the comrades prepare for battle. Other than that... Don't our comrades of the underground party have some idea of taking advantage of the opportunity to strive for a certain result? ”

Chen Qihan thought for a moment and said, "Some of them did hope to use our strength to drive out the French, but I didn't promise them. ”

Jiang Cheng snorted and said, "You are doing the right thing, you can't promise them, but you can promise them, if you help us, you can at least take away a certain political status for them first, and tell them that Ge Ming has to come step by step, not urgently, first contact the dominance of the French, and then think about the next step." ”

Hill also got the news, he ran to Jiang Cheng's residence to find Jiang Cheng and said, "Boss, I hope that I can be the middleman, I will let them sit down and have a good talk, I believe there is nothing that cannot be discussed." ”

Jiang Cheng sighed and said, "General Hill, I have great respect for you, and I also gave them a chance, but they didn't give me a good response, I can only say that as long as they don't riot, I won't make a move." ”

Hill got Jiang Cheng's promise, and immediately went to find the local plantation owners, but found that these people had begun to avoid him, he stomped his feet angrily, at this time Zhang Aiping and other naval personnel from overseas also arrived, Jiang Cheng gave him the order to lead the team to go to sea for training, Hill understood that this was Jiang Cheng's hope that he could stay out of the matter, he wanted to find Jiang Cheng again, but was stopped by Zhang Ye and asked, "Mr. Hill, if you have any way to stop this, I will let you in." ”

Hill was stunned for a while, suddenly felt extremely powerless, and finally took the fleet and Zhang Aiping and others to the sea for training.

As soon as Hill left, Owen and the others felt that the time was more ripe, in their eyes, Hill was protecting those damn Chinese, and now that the Chinese are gone, it is a good time.

April 9, 1941

On the streets of Papeete, the largest city in the French Polynesian Islands, countless people are gathering, most of them are indigenous, including some whites, these whites are blue-collar workers in various factories or plantations, in fact, the increase of Chinese originally had the greatest impact on them, in various Western countries or colonies, they are all anti-Chinese on the grounds that the Chinese have encroached on the local people's job opportunities, and these white workers have always been the main force of Chinese exclusion in Western countries.

But in this Polynesian islands, there has been a change, although a large number of Chinese have entered, they are opening up new plantations or working on construction sites, not only do not reduce the employment opportunities of these white workers, but may take the opportunity to ask for more income, but under the slogan of the Polynesian Islands in France, these white workers are also encouraged to take to the streets, they hold the slogan of driving out the Chinese and slowly come together with the natives, and those natives see that the white people also act with themselves, and suddenly feel bolder, When the crowd was almost gathered, and it was not known who was organizing, the men began to walk towards the government building in the center of the city, ready to protest to the French department.

Owen looked at the crowd outside, not worried at all, he smiled and took a puff of cigarette and said, "Look, when these people are angry enough, light a fire for them, it will be enough for them to explode." ”

Several natives in suits stood at the front, sweat dripping from their dark skin, and they stood on a high ground and shouted to the people below, "Fellow citizens! The Chinese have usurped our land and robbed us of our wealth, and they do not believe in God, they do not believe in the gods, so that the gods are angry and bring bad luck to us, and only by driving them away can we be happy and prosperous! Look! How many Chinese shops are there on the streets! They buy goods at a low price, then sell them to us at a high price, make our hard-earned money, and then buy our women, and everyone says, what should we do? ”

From ancient times until the reform and opening up of later generations, China has been extremely opposed to the behavior of leaving their homeland, not to mention going overseas, these overseas Chinese, except for a small part of them for business or study, most of them have to go away because they can't live in China, and the women are extremely rare, which makes most of the Chinese either die alone overseas, or can only choose to combine with the local aborigines, taking Victoria, Australia in 1881 as an example, At that time, there were 11,759 Chinese, but only 169 people were born locally, and even because of the Chinese population living there were no women, which made a lot of things, which also made Western countries in modern times report on the Chinese that they did not pay attention to etiquette, righteousness and shame, no basic morality, lack of etiquette and no concept of chastity, and later generations are different, at this time the Western society is also extremely conservative about men and women, and at the same time, because the traditional Chinese concept pays attention to the relationship between men and women, men and women, This made the Western society at that time think that women who married Chinese were persecuted.

At that time, there was such a description in Western books: "Leprosy, opium smoking and unspeakable vices are an inseparable part of the Chinese body and mind", and even Henry Parks, known as the father of the Australian nation, publicly declared: "We will never allow the Australian population to be mixed with any inferior people, and we will never allow any inferior nation to enter us." The inferior ethnic groups in this mainly refer to the Chinese at that time.

Aboriginal and white men who were egged on waved sticks and slogans and shouted, "Smash them!" Smash them! ”

Then I don't know who took the lead first, rushed to the Chinese store next to the closed door, the store was empty, but the goods were also full, and even a stack of pounds was weirdly placed on the table, and the people who wanted to catch a few Chinese people were stunned for a moment, and then one of the white men rushed up to grab the stack of pounds.

The robbery began immediately, people died for money, birds died for food, first looking for money and valuables, and then began to clean up all the goods in the store, for the local natives, even a piece of cloth is also a good goods, probably thinking of dying without proof, and when the store was looted, immediately a few torches were thrown in, and the fire burned, you know, most of the buildings here are still wooden.

Those who grab things want more, those who don't grab want to grab them, don't think how kind the natives of the South Pacific are, you know, until later generations, there are still rumors from time to time that there are natives who plunder tourists to make tooth sacrifices, and the honesty of the natives here is formed under the continuous slaughter of white people, and when white people take the lead in rioting, they are even more rampant.

The black smoke burned one by one, Jiang Cheng, who was in the port, looked at the black smoke in the direction of the city and smiled, and said to Chen Qihan next to him, "Let the troops be ready, everyone will learn that sentence, right?" ”

Chen Qihan immediately said: "laydownyourarmsandsurrenderimmediately!" Haha, I asked all my comrades to say it at least 500 times, I'm afraid they will say it even backwards. ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Well, okay, after meeting the enemy, if they don't attack first, let them surrender first, if they don't put down their weapons after saying it three times, kill them immediately, don't have any hesitation, if we don't give them a head-on blow, there will be more dead and wounded." ”

Chen Qihan snorted and asked, "Then when will we dispatch?" There are still some Chinese who haven't come out of the city. ”

Jiang Cheng had asked Zhu Wei to try his best to inform the Chinese to leave the places where the riots might be affected, but there were still many people who did not believe that there would be a riot, and they were not willing to walk even a few kilometers away, and some people thought that they would not be in danger if they worked on white people's plantations and factories, and Zhu Wei was not easy to say too clearly, for fear that the news would leak out, so he could only let them go, and now these people are probably very dangerous.

Jiang Cheng thought about it, and finally said ruthlessly, "The time is not right, you are not allowed to send troops, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, some people will gnaw bones in the war, and some people can eat meat, and now it is the same, we are also in Geming, and Geming will have sacrifices." ”

After Jiang Cheng said this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, just for this sentence, I don't know how many Chinese will sacrifice, Jiang Cheng quickly shook his head to shake off this distraction, and listened carefully to the reports that kept coming.

Slowly, the Chinese who were hiding were caught, everyone has demons living in their hearts, when there is no legal and moral constraint, then anyone can become a devil, at first, these Chinese were just beaten and stripped naked, but soon there was bloodshed, after the first Chinese fell in a pool of blood, the bright red blood not only did not make people calm down, but made people more fanatical, robbing! Rob! Rob! Burn! Burn! Burn! Kill! Kill! Kill!

Suddenly, I don't know who took the lead to rush to the place where the white people lived, rows of guns rang out, and a group of policemen had already been standing guard at the entrance of the white quarter, looking at the muzzles of the smoke, the natives ran back crying, and then did not dare to rush in this direction.

"Let's go! Go outside to the plantations and factories! It's all from our island! Let's go grab it back! Seeing that some people couldn't bear to storm the white area, the natives in suits who took the lead immediately shouted.

A slogan sounded, at this time the shops in the city and the Chinese area were almost destroyed, many thugs got the loot, but more people have not grabbed much, people are not satisfied, the thought of the plantation outside the city, everyone's eyes are red, due to the war in Europe, the output of spices, sugar and other products here has not been completely sold out, if you can find a warehouse to move a bag of spices, then you will get rich immediately!

The mob rushed out of the city under the leadership of some well-intentioned people, but as soon as they arrived outside the city, they could no longer run uncontrollably, the newly opened plantations of the Chinese were far away from the edge of the city, and the really good places were white plantations, originally according to the ideas of Owen and others, as long as the white people stood outside the plantation with guns, even tens of thousands of natives did not dare to rush, but at this time, the accident happened.

"Huh" a bamboo arrow went straight into the neck of a white man outside the plantation, blood came out instantly, the aborigines or whites in suits organized in the mob were stunned for a moment, but others found an opportunity, some bold natives rushed forward quickly, and another white man shot with a shotgun, but he was able to kill a few people, and he was stunned by a stone before he fired a shot, this was the first white plantation to suffer, but not the last.

God knows how much inspiration this brought to the natives, it turns out that our bows and arrows can also kill the whites, the whites are not really unkillable, at this time the natives in suits and many whites found that the original natives with bows and arrows are still a lot, suddenly, one after another white plantation guards were killed, the gate was opened, when the warehouse was opened, everyone was stunned, looking at the warehouse full of bags of sugar, spices and other materials, everyone gasped, now it is a riot, After it subsides, the ghost will find out where these things are, don't take them for nothing!
