Get up 140

The Dutch Governor's Palace in Suraya, looking out of the window from the house, the water is blue and the mountains are blue. In the room, at the negotiating table, the two sides argued very fiercely.

"... Nanyang countries, which one is not a vassal state of China? China's immigration in the South China Sea has a history of thousands of years. It is as old as China's civilization. It is not an excessive to say that the South China Sea is China's territory!" Li wanted to stand up, stretched out his hands, and then hugged his chest, as if he wanted to hold Nanyang in his arms, and his greed overflowed with words.

"Absurd! That's ridiculous!" The Dutch Governor also stood up and kept churring his hands, fiercely refuting him. I will take your remarks as a declaration of war against the Dutch Empire!"

"No, I'm just telling the truth!" Li wanted to look at the Dutch Governor in a funny way.

"Unreasonable!" Britain's mediation represented a fierce stand-up, pointing its finger at Li to poke a point.

"This is not what your country should say!" The United States mediated that Henry was furious, and he stood up at the table and protested solemnly.

The British representative's fingers shrank back, but still shouted thugly...

Li Xiang came up in anger, with a pouting look on his face, and he was not inferior to scold him.

The British representative played a threatening trick: "I'm determined to send a minister to Beijing to discuss the appointment!"

"Chinese civilization is humble, but don't take it as cowardice." Li wanted to smile gutterly: "If Britain has leisure to mind your own business here, it's better to go back and take care of yourself."

......

Hong Kong, a British colony known as the "Pearl of the East", fell into a state of darkness and chaos. Traffic in the city was cut off, production stopped, shops and restaurants were closed one after another, and the market was deserted. Those foreigners who are usually arrogant have no one to take care of the housework, no one to take care of the children, and no one to clean the environment, making them helpless and embarrassed.

The ships from Hong Kong to the mainland and the marine ships from abroad to Hong Kong were all stopped at the port and anchored out.

The streets and alleys are full of the Notice of the Provincial and Port Strike Committee of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions:

Public enlightenment: The provincial and Hong Kong industrial compatriots held a general alliance strike because they resented the massacre of our Surabaya overseas compatriots by the Dutch Empire. At present, strike workers in Hong Kong are returning to China. After consultation with the Workers' Department of the Central Executive Committee of the China League, we have organized a special office to manage hospitality, fund-raising, publicity, common affairs and other items, that is, we will organize the "Provincial-Hong Kong Strike Committee" to deal with it. The temporary office of the association is now located at the Seamen's Club, No. 45 Taiping South Road, Guangzhou. Please contact the office for all strikes.

In the Triangle Park, a young man with a blue sky and day badge on his chest spoke generously to the dark crowd in front of him:

"The Chinese Alliance will fight against the barbaric and brutal massacre of the empire, telling the people of the whole country! National workers! Farmers! All the oppressed people!

Is the Surifa water tragedy an accident? No. This is an inevitable phenomenon under the righteous rule of the empire. The empire exists for a day, and the oppressed people have the possibility of being slaughtered every day!

Aren't the weak and small nations such as India, Egypt, Africa and the oppressed classes in Europe and the United States often massacred regularly or irregularly by the robbers of the empire? The massacre of our Chinese nation did not begin today. From the Battle of Opium to the Battle of Gengzi, from the Red River Creek tragedy to today's Surabaya tragedy, it is completely a bloody book of foreign robbers slaughtering the Chinese nation!

However, the great bloodshed in Surya this time is the first page of the period of the Chinese nation's conscious resistance to the empire!"

There was a burst of applause.

The youth and others stopped the applause and continued their passionate speech: "The China Alliance will dare to remind the attention of the people of the whole country: this major event in Surai was caused by the attack of the Empire Zhuyi against the Chinese. Hundreds and tens of thousands of thousands of overseas Chinese did not hesitate to die and drink bombs in the artillery fire of the empire, just to celebrate Congratulations on the founding of the Republic of China. What a respectable spirit and what a great sacrifice!

We hope that the rising Chinese people in Hong Kong and the whole country will inherit the will of the bloody martyrs and always support the interests of the Chinese who are most oppressed by the imperial hatred in the long-term national struggle. The alienation policy of the empire will make the overseas Chinese who are most loyal to the interests of the nation in any unbearable danger, and the national liberation As a result, the movement was also hit by the slump!"

In front of the box standing by the young man who spoke passionately, there were several young students who participated in the organization and immediately raised their arms and shouted:

"National workers! Farmers! All the oppressed masses! Get up, get up: defeat the savage and brutal empire! Long live the united front of the China Alliance! Long live the liberation of China!"

Several young people shouted with their arms at the same time, and the sound shook the sky.

More than 100,000 Hong Kong workers went on strike, and the Hong Kong government immediately declared martial law.

Hong Kong is a small island full of water on all sides, and a lot of food needs to be supplied by Guangzhou. The dock workers went on strike, and Guangdong was blockaded again. Meat and vegetables from the mainland could not be shipped in. As a result, the prices of pork and eggs rose desperately, and the British's favorite beef gen could not be seen. The food market is empty, which is in contrast to the garbage and feces piled up on the street. Hong Kong has become a "hungry Hong Kong".

After the seamen went on strike, the ship no longer entered the port and the dock was abandoned. The goods could not be shipped in, and the stores were closed one after another. Things can't be bought, and the social order is chaotic. Hong Kong has become a "dead port" again.

Faced with such a situation, the Governor of Hong Kong, Stas, also wanted to take the method of the Opium War and attack by force. He specially held a so-called "citizen conference" in public, and in the name of the conference, he called on the British government to send troops to suppress the strike. However, the situation at this time is different from that in the Opium War era. The situation of the Dutch in Surya has not subsided. Britain is a civilized country, so they can no longer learn from the Dutch. British domestic public opinion sympathizes with the Chinese people has become the mainstream. Britain's support for the Netherlands in the Surat negotiations has made the British government's public opinion drop a lot.

The British government did not want to fight openly with the government of the Republic of China because of the Dutch scandal in Suragawa, so it replied, "If you look at the overall situation, you can't send troops at this time."

......

In the Dutch Governor's House in Surawa, the Dutch Governor and the British representative are still discussing at the table.

"They are smart, brave and pioneering, and are not inferior to any other nation in the world in business, which has also been well confirmed by various xenophobic laws of white people." The British said, "It's hard for you to believe, right? But this is very true. Your xenophobic act is necessary. If you allow the Chinese to enter freely, they will eat you. I can guarantee that there will be no white people after five generations.

The Dutch governor nodded and asked, "So what do you think of the U.S. policy towards China? It seems that the United States is really going to be on China's side this time.

"The U.S. policy towards China and the policies of many other countries," the British representative replied, "reflecting the fierce struggle between conscience and political needs. On the one hand, it is the idea of altruism, sympathy and humanitarian spirit for small and weak countries; on the other hand, it is a strong desire for external expansion and an understanding of the future political and economic needs of the country. In my opinion, the expansion of the United States to Panama and the Caribbean and the establishment of new settlements in the Pacific Ocean are only out of the understanding of the huge economic pressure in the future and the need to find new markets. The growing manufacturing industry and the next generation's strong pursuit of industrial development will prompt the United States to implement an open policy to China. In order to promote this policy, the U.S. government has always shown generosity and generosity in dealing with Chinese affairs. I believe that the abominable 'golden-yuan diplomacy' policy of the United States in recent years is also based on this..."

There were panicked voices and running sounds in the aisle outside the room.

The Dutch governor frowned: "Who is so rude?"

As soon as the words fell, the door was pushed open with a bang.

The Dutch Governor stood up: "Fac! Without permission..."

"Exergency! Mr. Governor, Mr. Consul, there is a general strike in Guangdong and Hong Kong!" The governor's adjutant was out of breath and almost roared to report.

"Ah?" The British representative exclaimed, "Tar clear to me!"

"Hong Kong post offices, banks, hotels, teahouses, vegetable farms, trams, newspapers, printing bureaus, ferries... all went on strike, and even the messengers, maids, cooks and sedan chairs of rich families also participated. Hong Kong suddenly became a "dead port" and a "stinky port."

"The Chinese also blocked Hong Kong... The Provincial and Hong Kong Strike Committee set up a picket team of more than 2,000 people, which was sent to all Haikou in Guangdong Province to maintain order, catch the lackeys of the Hong Kong authorities, intercept the food shipped to Hong Kong, and detain British goods. The picket had 12 small ships patrolling the sea; there were 200 armed troops against the British army in Hong Kong and Shamian. Hong Kong has been tightly blocked.

......

It's strange to say that the British representative, who turned out to be vicious and tough on the Netherlands, sent a letter to Li Xiang after the provincial and Hong Kong strike, saying, "You have arrived at the British goods. Why do you have to strike?"

"Why is the British consul not worried about British goods, but afraid of workers' strikes?" Wang Jingwei took the letter and asked incomprehensiblely.

Li wanted to find out a copy printed with the China Customs Trade Book from a pile of materials, threw it to Wang Jingwei, and said, "You should carefully check the Hong Kong Customs. On page 95, Hong Kong's import and export goods are worth 150 million pounds a year. According to this calculation, one day of the strike, the UK will lose seven million in trade. It can be seen how big the strike has hit Britain! The value of British goods shipped into Guangzhou is only 30 to 40 million yuan every year. Five or six days of strike is worth a year of British goods.

Wang Jingwei was surprised: "I have to take Li Shuai. Can you think of this? It's definitely not good to fight against foreigners. The foreigners are strong, and China has suffered too many losses here. But we never thought of fighting against it in this way! After figure out this mystery, I know the weaknesses of foreigners and my own strength. This is the 'knowing myself and knowing the enemy' in the art of war. If you insist on the strike, the victory must belong to us.

Li Xiang enjoyed the feeling of being respected very much. He was proud, but said reservedly, "This strike is the concerted action of all walks of life in Hong Kong, not my work. Not only factories, docks and ship workers left Guangzhou, but also cleaners and housework workers acted together. Therefore, since the start of the strike, British people living in Hong Kong have to cook, do their own clothes, and take care of their children. But that doesn't matter. Due to the strike of cleaning workers, the streets are full of garbage, and no one cleans the feces. People who live in high-rise buildings often throw the feces in paper and throw them on the street. The weather in Hong Kong is hot, and it will soon enter the summer season, even more so. When the sun shines, the smell is so bad. Hong Kong has become a veritable "stinky port."
