When the Second Fleet of the Xinhua Navy annihilated the East India Fleet of the Dutch Navy, in order to retaliate against the Xinhua Navy, the Dutch Indonesian Governor Jacques Brown. Dominica instigated an anti-Chinese rebellion against the Indonesian natives, resulting in the death of thousands of Chinese in the riot, and the Xinhua Army had to dispatch a large number of warships and merchant ships to withdraw 200,000 Chinese from Dutch Indonesia to Luzon. Long Yufei and the senior management of Xinhuaguo have always remembered this account. Now that the Xinhua Army has won a great victory, it is time to settle the score!

When the Jose coalition army invaded Lanfang Kingdom, after capturing Dongwanlu, the capital of Lanfang Kingdom, they burned and looted in Dongwanlu. According to statistics, half of the more than 100,000 people in Dongwanlu died in this catastrophe. Although Lanfangguo had not been annexed by Xinhua at that time, Long Yufei had already regarded those Chinese in Lanfangguo as citizens of Xinhuaguo, and the Chinese were slaughtered by the Jose coalition army, and Xinhuaguo would definitely avenge them! Although many murderers have died in the war during this period, there are still many murderers in the prisoner of war camps of the Xinhua Army, and the Xinhua Army will definitely not let those guys go. It's just that it's very difficult to tell which ones are murderers and those who are innocent! However, Xinhuaguo does not intend to have to be conclusive in order to be able to judge! Once there was evidence that the remnants of the officers and soldiers of the Jose coalition army were in the East Wanlu massacre. Then, you can convict him accordingly!

Don't say it's unfair. In this world, there is no absolute fairness at all! Especially among these murderers who slaughtered their compatriots, Xinhua will severely punish them! The Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of the Netherlands, although not weak. But they all lost a lot this time! I'm afraid I can't afford to organize another expedition! Therefore, Xinhua can judge these people as he pleases, without caring about whether he will offend the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Holland because of this! Anyway, now between the Kingdom of Xinhua and the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of the Netherlands, they are already mortal enemies!

Xinhua implements judicial independence, and the courts set up in various localities are parallel institutions to governments at all levels. Not under the leadership of the government. The lower courts are under the leadership of the higher courts, while the justices of the kingdom are directly responsible to King Long Yufei. This time the trial of the Dutch and the Spaniards. It is a special tribunal composed of the Supreme Court of Xinhua and the military court of the Xinhua Army to be responsible for the trial! In Manila, of course, it was mainly the trials of the Dutch and Spanish leaders, the trials of others. It is placed in West Borneo and Java. It is mainly the Judge Advocate General's Office of the Xinhua Army that is in charge! Of course, don't expect the trial of the Judge Advocate General's Department of the Xinhua Army to be fair! Because of the influence of Long Yufei, the Xinhua army is full of delays for foreign devils, this time the Jose coalition army committed a heinous crime and fell into the hands of the Xinhua army, it must be nine deaths! Unless there are really people who don't have the blood of the Chinese on their hands, don't think about living!

The current justice of Xinhuaguo is named Lu Zhenghao. He is a well-known Chinese elder in Luzon. Among the Chinese in Luzon, it has a high status. Plus he's just to be a man. He also has a great affection for Xinhuaguo. Therefore, Long Yufei appointed him as the chief justice of Xinhuaguo and established the judicial system of Xinhuaguo.

On the evening of September 14, the day before the public trial, Justice Lu Zhenghao and Zhou Yuanhang, director of the Military Justice Division of the Xinhua Army, jointly asked to see Long Yufei and inform him of the relevant matters of this public trial!

"How's the preparation for the public trial?" After Long Yufei saw the two of them, he asked straight to the point.

"Your Majesty, you're ready! The place of the judgment was in the square in front of the royal palace. We have sent out an announcement to the Chinese throughout Manila, and it is estimated that more than 50,000 people will come to watch this trial! Justice Lu Zhenghao said to Long Yufei.

"Fifty thousand? Have you contacted the army and the Ministry of Internal Affairs? When the time comes, the safety and security work must be done well! Long Yufei said. With so many people getting together, no one dares to guarantee that they will not mix in with people with bad intentions. In addition, if there are too many people, it is also prone to stampedes and so on.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of the Interior has made arrangements! Tomorrow there will be a thousand people from the police and security forces in charge of maintaining the continuity! In addition, the military will also have two infantry battalions on standby, in the event of an emergency, they can be rushed to the scene within ten minutes! Zhou Yuanhang, director of the Military Judge Advocate General's Department, said!

"That's good! Tomorrow's judgment, mainly for those people? Long Yufei asked.

"Your Majesty, the subjects of tomorrow's trial include the Governor of Dutch Indonesia, Jacques Brown. Dominica, Spanish Governor of Luzon Anthony. Pedro, Spanish Army Lieutenant General Callisto, Dutch Army Lieutenant General De Boer! A number of other high-ranking officials of the Dutch-Indonesian colonial authorities, as well as high-ranking Spanish and Dutch generals, will be tried in the next two days! Justice Lu Zhenghao said. The trial of these men tomorrow is the main power of the Spanish Expeditionary Force and the Dutch-Indonesian colonial authorities, and their trial is also the focus of this trial. As for the others, it is less noticeable. Those ordinary soldiers of the Jose coalition army only need to be judged at will!

Long Yufei nodded, and then said, "Okay, tomorrow's trial, I will attend and watch!" ”

"Your Majesty, if you want to attend in person, then the security must be improved!" Zhou Yuanhang, director of the Military Judge Advocate General's Office, said with some concern. Xinhua is getting stronger and stronger, but in the process of Xinhua expansion, there are also many enemies, whether it is the natives of the Nanyang region or the Western colonists, I am afraid they are eager to kill Long Yufei. Although Long Yufei now has a son, his son is only half a year old. If Long Yufei has something to do with three strengths and two shortcomings, it will be a disaster for the whole country!

"Don't worry, my safety, the guards will be in charge!" Long Yufei said. Long Yufei's palace guards have expanded to an infantry battalion, in addition to the usual security of the palace, when Long Yufei travels, they are also responsible for the safety. Most of the members of the palace guards were veterans of the Xinhua Army, and many of them were scouts.

Seeing that Long Yufei was very resolute, Justice Lu Zhenghao and Zhou Yuanhang, the director of the Military Justice Division, had to stop persuading! They all know that Long Yufei's temper is also very stubborn, once the matter is decided, ten cows will not be able to pull it back!

"Your Majesty, there is another problem, we don't have much evidence in our hands! If it had been a fair trial, I am afraid they would not have been convicted! Justice Lu Zhenghao said with some embarrassment.

"Ha Luha, isn't this easy? Just go find someone to get a certificate overnight! Anyway, there will be no foreigners present at tomorrow's trial! It's all our own people! If we say they are guilty, then they are guilty! Long Yufei said. Although, this is an obstacle to justice. However, even in Western countries, which preach equality for all, it is impossible to achieve true judicial justice. What's more, now it is still a trial of foreign devils whose hands are stained with the blood of compatriots, so there is no need to talk about justice!

"Yes, Your Majesty, we know the way!" Lu Zhenghao and Zhou Yuanhang both replied.

After receiving Long Yufei's instructions, the two quickly left the palace, and they needed to be prepared to ensure that tomorrow's trial was foolproof!

On September 15th, the square of the Xinhua King's Palace was already crowded before eight o'clock in the morning! Many Chinese in Manila rushed here with their families to watch this trial! Before the official propaganda of Xinhuaguo, Xinhuaguo will form a court to try the foreign devils who killed their compatriots, which made everyone rush to a very novel. In addition, today happened to be a Sunday, so everyone came early in the morning as if they were attending some grand event!

The trial began at nine o'clock in the morning, but by eight o'clock there were already more than 50,000 people gathered in the square! A large number of people are still on their way, and it is estimated that by 9 o'clock in the morning, the total number will exceed 70,000! For this reason, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Xinhua had to ask the military for help in advance and sent soldiers from an infantry battalion to the square to maintain the continuity and ensure that no accidents would occur!

Some of the buildings around the square are also ambushed by military snipers and snipers from the palace guards to ensure that no ill-intentioned people will infiltrate. After all, King Long Yufei will watch this trial, and if something happens, it will be troublesome!

In the center of the square, a three-meter-high platform was erected, on which a row of tables and chairs was visited, where the judges of the special court sit. In front of them, there was a lone chair, and that was where the judged sat down!

Not far from the high platform, four gallows were erected! Once the special court found the criminals guilty and the death penalty was to be carried out, they were hung on the gallows. Although the Chinese and the Chinese prefer to see the beheading, it is too bloody, this is the square in front of the palace, if it is stained with blood, it is not good. Therefore, the special court deliberately adopted a more civilized method of execution!

"Hey, I heard that the people who will be tried this time include the Governor of Dutch Indonesia! I wish I could see him sent to the gallows! The middle-aged man said. He was a Chinese who had been evacuated to Luzon from Dutch Indonesia, and his relatives had died in the aborigines of Indonesia. Dominic, even more full of resentment!

"Your Majesty is benevolent and loving, and loves the people like a son! Those foreign devils killed our people, Your Majesty will not let them go! An old man with gray hair said with red eyes, "His son died in Batavia!" (To be continued......)
