Chapter 1162: The Wrath of the Viceroy of India
Foreign Minister Chen Yi, who hated the British ambassador to China, came forward this time and apologized very sincerely, saying that we had made a mistake and that it was our problem, and that I apologized to the British Empire on behalf of the Chinese government.
The second monk of Macrei was puzzled, and said in his heart, what are you sorry for? Are you scared of being beaten by us? Suddenly, the majestic image of the British Empire in Ambassador Maclay's mind was once again erected.
However, what made Ambassador Maclei stunned happened, Chen Yi said: "Our border guards mistakenly took the bandits who entered the Banhong area as your army, and led this diplomatic conflict, which was a false case of the villagers' newspaper in Yunnan. After they were attacked by bandits, in order to get help from government troops, they fabricated the fact that your army had invaded the Banhong area. In fact, after our army arrived in Banhong, it took seven days to completely eliminate and capture this gang of bandits, killing and wounding more than 1,000 people and capturing more than 1,700 people. These people also admit that they are bandits, and it is not your ** team that entered our country without permission. Therefore, I am here to express my sincere apologies this time, and my Government has ordered the Yunnan Provincial Government to arrest the villagers who spread false information on charges of spreading rumors. ”
Ambassador Macre didn't know what to say, the news surprised him too much, Banhong's British army was wiped out in seven days? It's simply ...... It's a fantasy.
Chen Yi specially presented a plaque with the words "Good Neighborliness and Friendship" written on it, and he explained to Ambassador Maclay: "The meaning of these four words is that the two families next to each other must get along well, as if they are like brothers. The border between China and the UK stretches for thousands of kilometres. It can be said that our country has the second longest border. This plaque was personally inscribed by Wang Maoru, President of the Republic of China, and specially presented to the ambassador. I hope you can work together with China to make China and the UK truly two countries of good neighborliness and friendship. ”
Maclay had no choice but to answer him with a wry smile.
Before leaving, Chen Yi specially said: "There are some European faces among the bandits, you must know that since the end of the Soviet Russian Civil War, some White Russian soldiers have wandered into China to become bandits. So my border guards thought that it should be White Russian bandits, and they built a plan to send these bandits to the Russians, who dealt with them. ”
Ma Kere was scared enough, Nima Chinese Yankee. You guys are so bad! Give our lads to the inhumane Russians - no, the Russians, you can figure it out.
With a very low status in the international community, a worldwide embargo, and intensifying internal contradictions, Stalin, who had just come to power, faced a series of challenges and had to use his secret services to consolidate his power. So to speak. If these British lads were given to the Russians by the Chinese, they would definitely make a big fuss, smear the British Empire internationally, and at the same time raise their own value. Will the British choose to fight the Russians?
Who wants to go there in that damn North Pole where you don't go to school for only four months a year? It is impossible for the British not to remember the lesson of Napoleon's halberd in Moscow, and the field of warfare in which the British excelled was temperate. Subtropical and subarctic rather than the vast boreal ice fields of Russia.
Ma Kelei didn't dare to make a rash decision, and hurriedly invited Chen Yi to stay, saying, "We can discuss this matter......
Chen Yi smiled smugly. Finally fucking got back a game and made you British!
At the persuasion of Ambassador Macre. It was also under Foreign Minister Chen Yi's calculations that the Chinese side decided to temporarily transport the bandits to Beijing for screening, rather than giving them to the Russians. Both sides knew that they were British soldiers, but both had their own intentions and did not recognize their identities.
At this time, the Viceroy of British India, Rufus. Isaacs learned from Maclay's telegram that all the British **** troops who entered China were captured, nearly 1,000 of the 2,700 soldiers and officers were killed in battle, and more than 1,700 were prepared by the Chinese to be sent to the Soviet Russian government.
"Damn it!" Rufus. Isaacs smashed the tea set on the coffee table with a twist, and the tea set made in China suddenly scattered and shattered.
"China! China! Abominable China! (English Porcelain and Chinese) Rufus. Isaacs roared, and several Indian servants on the side hid to the side in fright, and waited until Governor Isaacs laughed angrily, and the Indian servants with low eyebrows came to clean up.
At this time, the chief of staff of the British Indian Expeditionary Force Command, General Edward, led his staff officers to the Indian Governor's House in Delhi after being notified by the Governor of Isaacs. Eduardo was an officer with great combat experience, he participated in the European war, and from 1914 he was sent to Belgium as a British observer to observe the attitude of Germany at that time, and then Germany invaded Belgium, Eduardo, who was still a captain at the time, immediately organized British troops in Belgium to resist the German army together with the Belgian army. A large-scale war broke out between the Central and Allies in Belgium, and it can be said that Eduardo's promotion in military rank coincided with the four-year European war.
In 1920, Eduardo had already served as a colonel in the British Army and was transferred to Malaya to lead the LinkedIn Army to govern Malaya and crush many tribal rebellions in Malaya, intimidating the Malays in Malaya with a tough attitude. In 1921, the former Viceroy of India, Frederick Ferdin. Sey's resigned from the opposition because of the riots in Gujarat and Punjab that led to the implementation of the Rollat Act. Isaacs was inaugurated as Viceroy of India. Rufus. Isaacs recommended Rudis. Ferdinand. Colonel Eduardo held the post of Chief of the General Staff of the British Expeditionary Force in India.
Eduardo, a stubborn and experienced officer, immediately confronted Rufus. Governor Isaacs became the best partner in the East, and this temptation of China was also Eduardo's obedience to Rufus. Governor Isaacs later ordered the Burmese army to enter the Chinese Banhong area to conduct armed probing of China. Of course, more importantly, there are silver mines there, silver mines that can bring a lot of money to the British every year.
Another reason why the British chose Banhong is that the Chinese government has not stationed troops on the southern border, unlike the Sino-Russian border, the Chinese are full of vigilance and defense against the Soviet Russians, and even built a large number of pillboxes, but in Yunnan, Tibet and Xinjiang provinces, the Chinese only set up boundary monuments and sent troops to patrol from time to time.
Eduardo was to blame for this fiasco, as he did not learn the lessons of his defeat in Kashmir last May, believing that the squadron did not have the guts to fight the regular British army. Before the war he told Governor Isaacs: "The Chinese will only protest and confront each other in Yunnan, it is absolutely impossible to fire at the British Imperial Army, and every time we take a step forward, they will take a step back, because we are the number one in the world." ”
Unexpectedly, the troops entering China were all wiped out, and the last telegram was that they were short of curry, hoping to bring some curry powder from Yangon......
And then, there was no then.
The whole army was annihilated.
"We want revenge, we want to start a war against China!" Eduardo Chief of Staff shouted, he picked up the defense map, and said: "Your Excellency, the Chinese have violated the bottom line of our British Empire, and they have insulted the glory of the British Empire!" We want war, we want war against China! Let China be British China! ”
Senior Advisor to the Governor's Office, Eddie. Robinson smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, General, I'm afraid we kicked the iron plate this time." "Add. Robinson was the thirteenth Viceroy of India, George Bush. Robinson's second son, his grandfather was Viscount Godridge, Prime Minister of the British Empire. Robinson has an excellent reputation in India, while George. In addition to serving as the Viceroy of India, Robinson also had a very special status, that is, the Grand Elder of the Christian Freemasonry. Robinson now holds a prominent position not only in Freemasonry, but also as a senior advisor to the Viceroy of India, recognized by indigenous elders throughout India.
The right-hand man of the Governor of Isaacs is none other than Eddie. Robinson and Eduardo are two generals.
Eddie. Robinson analyzed: "Perhaps, Congress will not pay attention to us at all, and their greatest enemy now is the strike initiated by the Bolshevik Party at home." ”
Eduardo shook his head and said, "Even so, our own strength alone is enough to teach China an unforgettable lesson." We have 50,000 elite British Empire troops in South and Southeast Asia, nearly 300,000 servant soldiers, and the invincible Royal Navy in the Indian Ocean! Your Excellency the Governor-General, we cannot just suffer the loss of the Chinese monkeys, and the glory of the military parade of the British Empire in the Forbidden City twenty years ago cannot be lost in our hands. The more he spoke, the more agitated he became, and the officers behind him shouted excitedly: "We must not retreat again, we have already retreated once in Kashmir, and this time we cannot retreat in Banhong!" ”
Eduardo said: "In the battle of Kashmir, the Chinese used the plateau terrain to ambush us, and that time it was a servant army battle. However, this time it was the British Imperial Army, and it was also ambushed by the Chinese's conspiracy, which shows that the Chinese have long planned for us. If we retreat at Banhong, then the next thing we lose is Burma, the second is Malaya, and then India. ”
Governor Isaacs was moved by him, so he decided to have Eduardo's chief of staff plan to send troops to prepare for a war against China from Burma.
This face, you must get it back! Governor Isaacs thought to himself.
