ideal era

137 gunmen

Sishui, Chinese Consulate.

Wang Jingwei stood on the balcony, with the hot sunshine, the dark blue sea, and two cruisers flying blood-colored five-star red flags wandering in the port. Chinese flocked to the wharf like a pilgrimage. Chinese people come to Surawase every day in all ports of New Malaysia, and the whole South China Sea has been boiling.

Wang Jingwei suddenly said leisurely, "It's really hot today. You should wear a hat when you go out."

"Good idea. It's better to have a cuckold." Li wanted to sit on the lounge chair and looked up and said.

He is looking at the 24 photos taken about the Chinese worker, showing the spotted and branded scars on the back of the Chinese worker.

Wang Jingwei took a cold breath: "It's really a good idea. It's not only cold on the body, but also cool in the heart."

Li Xiang gave the 24 photos, as well as the testimony of many witnesses with the help of the Nanyang Alliance and the Hualing, to the housekeeper: "Send all these to China immediately, and ask President Yuan to decide at his discretion. In addition, please send a copy of the terms to each country's minister in China. I gave all the powerful gains and losses to the cabinet bosses to analyze the powerful gains and losses in this matter. No matter how stupid those guys are, they should understand the priorities, right?

Wang Jingwei said, "It's better for provincial governors to have a look and participate in opinions."

"Uh-huh!" Li wanted to nod and said, "The People's Daily will cooperate with the publicity."

In any era, there is no shortage of angry youth in the country, especially in the end of the world or the period of change. At this time at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the People's Republic of China, the power of the angry youth was amazing.

Li Xiang also secretly used the overseas branch of the Xinhua Consortium to spend a lot of money to find a group of foreign gunmen to publicize public opinion, and launched a public opinion offensive against the Netherlands in foreign newspapers. Foreign journalists are less professional than Chinese journalists. After receiving the money, they began to attack the Netherlands with the sharpest words. Li wants to believe that public opinion still has a certain reference value for government decision-making.

Meadow took over the terms and walked out of the room quickly.

Wang Jingwei took a long breath and said to Li Xiang, "On the first day of negotiations, the Dutch have released my arrested compatriots. Shall we take the initiative?"

Li Xiang sneered and said, "What else can a small Dutch country do now? However, Britain and France have a little trouble supporting him behind his back.

Wang Jingwei was anxious: "I didn't see the statements made by the representatives of the two countries in the negotiation hall. How did you see it? That's true. That's troublesome."

"Trouble?" Li thought and said, "Whoever dares to trouble me, I will give him trouble!"

Wang Jingwei couldn't figure it out for a moment, and he didn't know where Li's self-confidence came from.

The housekeeper's little sister hurried in: "Li Shuai, Japanese mediation representative Ryohei Uchida and U.S. Consul Henry visited."

"Here comes the trouble between English and France." Li wanted to have a gloomy smile.

......

Under Li Xiang's silver gunner's attack, European and American newspapers had a strong response to the fermented Surat case.

Newspaper headlines are eye-catching:

"Overseas Chinese workers are abused by inhumane!"

"Nanyang Chinese are the same as black slaves!"

"The Dutch and Indian government allowed all kinds of torture against Chinese workers!"

"The violence of the Dutch and Indian military police!"

......

In the governor's mansion in Surat, the Dutch governor threw a pile of newspapers in front of senior white officials of the colony such as adjutants and senior military and police inspectors.

The Governor said angrily, "Such a thing happened. As senior officials of the colony, how can you deal with yourself?"

These senior white officials lowered their heads and said in horror, "We apologize to Her Majesty for damaging the reputation of the empire."

The governor's facial muscles twitched and said, "What's the use of apation? The exposure of the incident caused passivity to the East India of the Nederland, so that Britain and France have no excuse to support us.

The adjutant wiped his sweat and said in panic, "We must try our best to stabilize the representatives of Britain and France."

The governor said fiercely, "This end stabilizes the British and French representatives, and the other side of Beijing, let the envoy in China find a way to put pressure on Yuan Shikai's government."

Senior white officials said, "Yes."

The governor asked again, "Where is the murderer who injured and killed the Chinese in the incident? Are there any white people involved in the violence that night?

The adjutant wiped his sweat again. Everyone knew that the Surat incident that night was tacitly approved by the Governor's Office, but now that this is the case, someone has to take the blame. He said with difficulty, "Yes!"

"All white people are removed from office and repatricated. Those indigenous murderers will be handed over to the court for public trial. The Dutch governor gave a gutter smile. In this way, it can also arouse the hatred of the indigenous people against the Chinese, and our domesticated indigenous monkeys will not worship and sacrifice.

......

Beijing.

All groups, schools, shops, institutions and suburban citizens in the city go to the meeting, inside and outside the nine cities, looking at each other. Pedestrians are like water, cars and horses are blocked, and the shoulders are one after another in front of Tiananmen Square. From young students to 60 or 70-year-old old women, they all scramble to show their righteous indignation. There are five sets in front of Tiananmen Square, with leaflets flying and flags flying. Students and citizens wear black gauze with multiple arms and white emblems on their chests. Hearing and seeing it, it makes people cry sadly.

In front of Tian'anmen Square, in addition to the students of various schools, there are also many bystanders coming one after another. Most of them are residents outside the front gate and the east and west Chang'an Street. When they heard the speeches of the students and saw the leaflets distributed on the spot, they expressed sympathy and support for the students, and some people directly participated in the parade.

The flow of people, flags, and waving arms converged into a sea of enthusiasm, and fearless students and citizens went straight to Dongjiaomin Lane.

People's Lane in the eastern suburbs. In the British Consulate, Zhu Andian, Consul General in China, is drafting a telegram from London:

"The news about the Surat tragedy is very different. The Netherlands has completely lost people's sympathy for it. Everyone hopes that China can give it a hard blow. Only one English-language newspaper, the Daily Chronicle, said something that seemed to be kind to the Netherlands. Most newspapers criticize the Netherlands in their editorials, and the world's public opinion is favorable to China.

In the recent negotiations in Surai, China's young Marshal Li was skillful. He made good use of the power of the public and surprised the Dutch through the negotiations between the United States and Japan. He also planted a seed of suspicion in Britain and France, which will help the situation of the United States and Japan in the East Indies and the Indochina Peninsula. Power expansion.

I'm afraid this is also a blow to the British forces in the East, especially in China. I thought the British government's policy towards the Netherlands was meaningless, but unfortunately, there is no Barmerstone or Disraley in the UK now!

Suragawa negotiations, I must do my best to support the Netherlands. Sadly, although I have the responsibility to support the Netherlands and am willing to do my best for it, I have to agree with China's goals and methods. The progress of China's democratic revolution last year is commendable, and the democratic revolution they held in the provinces has also aroused our sympathy and hope. Although politicians from various countries angrily denounced China for causing unease in the Far East, they must feel that this emerging Republic of China is not easy to provoke, especially the young Marshal Li. You should remember how he turned the Hankou Concession into a special economic zone in Hankou.

In fact, on this side of the earth, China's revolution did not achieve the greatness of Sun Yat-sen or Yuan Shikai, but witnessed the rise of Napoleon in the East, and Ezhou will certainly be China's Prussia.

I think that the combination of international politics and all planning must be reconsidered for other arrangements. Even so, I am still willing to take Yuan Shikai as an ally, rather than go to Li Xiang. Of course, this must be provided that Yuan Shikai can accept my advice and listen to my guidance.

After Zhu Andian finished writing, he put down his pen and took a long breath. Looking at this terrible telegram, he wanted to delete some, but he felt that every sentence was very important.

After the vast student parade started from Tiananmen Square and went out of Zhonghuamen, the students distributed leaflets and came to the west entrance of Dongjiaomin Lane.

All kinds of slogans resounded through the sky.

In the presidential palace of Iron Lion Hutong, representatives of the industry and student representatives described the tragic situation of the Dutch and Indian patrol shooting of their compatriots. They burst into tears and wept. Patriotic enthusiasm is beyond words. This greatly moved the people watching along the way. Many citizens shed tears. When foreigners saw it, they raised their fingers with admiration and took off their hats to show their respect. Even the patrolmen in front of the presidential palace shed tears.

In the presidential palace.

Yuan Shikai sat down and said no.

"In the past few days, the Consul of the Netherlands has received a lot of Chinese merchants' resistance to the Dutch covenant, the ban on the purchase of Dutch goods, leaflets and so on. Immediately, please call the provincial governors, and prohibit them." Lu Zhengxiang said.

Yuan Shikai raised his eyelids slightly: "How did the outside come back?"

"The external photo is slightly said that it has been televised to the governors of each province, and the strength has been persuaded."

Cai Yuanpei sneered and said, "Weak!"

"The Empress of the Netherlands sent a telegram to the Dutch envoy in Beijing, telling our government to say that the Chinese violated the 15th paragraph of the 1858 Treaty, and the Chinese government should bear all the responsibility for everything. According to the London letter: Britain is very much attention to the suspension of the sale of goods by the Chinese... Today, I heard from the political community that the Netherlands does not allow cities and towns in China, and coerces the Dutch government to allow this unreasonable request. Zhao Bingjun stared at Cai Yuanpei and sneered. The French Prime Minister was near *** and gave a speech on the issue of Chinese people not using goods. It is said that China must pay attention to it and be careful not to stick to it.

The Netherlands united with Britain and France to threaten and force the Yuan Shikai government to suppress the patriotic movement of the Chinese people.

Duan Zhigui said in a buzzing voice: "We must prohibit the merchants in Tianjin, and do not agree with the Changjiang Chamber of Commerce. At the same time, Beijing declared emergency martial law and dispatched a large number of military police, together with the horse team, to disperse the trouble with bayonets, butts, water dragons, etc.

Tang Shaoyi stopped talking.

Yuan Shikai slapped the coffee table fiercely: "Now bow your head to the Dutch and wait to be scolded to death!" Shaochuan called Liu Jingren, the minister in the Netherlands, and asked him to try his best to negotiate with the Dutch authorities! It's a joke. Are we still afraid that a small Dutch country will come?

Outside the presidential palace, the hot-blooded young people shouted various patriotic slogans. Citizens along the way were in tears and scolded the people in power for having no heart and liver, which combined into a sense of anger. At this time, the military police guarding the presidential palace dared to use their usual prestige. They all retreated aside in con's eyes and looked at each other.

At this moment, the door of the presidential palace slowly opened, and Yuan Shikai, who was wide and fat, came out.

When the crowd slowly calmed down, Yuan Shikai said, "Overseas Chinese are suffering and will try their best to save them. The Beijing Dang Bureau has also repeatedly called Liu Jingren, the minister in the Netherlands, asking him to try his best to negotiate with the Dutch authorities!"

ps: Some people report too much information. I have understood. Subscribed readers really like the ideal era. Maybe they are more proficient in the history of the Republic of China than me. I used to be too talkative. Correct it immediately.

Also, if you have any comments, please feel free to raise them...
