Chapter 109: Oceanic

---------
Nearly 30 kilometers from Kunming City, there is a medium-sized rare germanium metal mine. Ye ^ Zi ~ Yu ~ Yu is a rare mine because of its limited terrain. Although it has a high value, it is difficult to mine. Before that, more than a thousand workers worked hard day and night, and their production capacity was not up.
However, since more than a month ago, tens of thousands of captives were escorted here. Throughout the huge ravine, the "hard-working" British and "hard-working" French, who were pointed at guns, spent a week. A temporary prisoner-of-war camp was established, which was the largest of several prisoner-of-war camps. Subsequently, the output of germanium ore increased rapidly, not only meeting the needs of several high-tech projects, but also inventory.
In order to implement the special regulations of the Supreme Command of the Southwest Army on treating British and French prisoners of war, the regiment responsible for this prisoner of war camp is a regiment stationed in the main third division of Kunming.
In addition to the routine guarding, the entire regiment is doing things every day around the prisoners of war camps and yelling loudly. They wake up the British and French prisoners of war in their dreams at less than six o'clock every day. The battalion's caretaker soldiers kicked open the doors of each room and lifted them out of bed like sipping pigs and dogs.
In order to feed these prisoners of war, Zhang Shusheng sent a special telegram to the British Embassy in Nanjing as soon as possible, claiming that the Southwest United Government government was unable to maintain the normal expenses of these tens of thousands of prisoners of war. Cost, maybe someone will starve to death.
After receiving the telegram, the British ambassador to China, Rampson, almost lost his glasses. This shameless southwest warlord, actually, even before the negotiations had begun, asked himself for the cost of prisoners of war. The telegram was torn up on the spot, but in less than two minutes, the ambassador called the embassy secretary and asked him to draft a report for the country. The telegram applied for a secret special negotiation fee ...
It's useless to talk to unreasonable people, and you should pay a lot of money, otherwise, you can't run away even if you starve to death. Who asked Southwest to say he had no money.
Every morning, the British and French people who were kicked out of the house each drank a bowl of "congee", which is the same as those of the Chinese in the Chinese spinning mill in Britain. They drank in their hands and could be used as mirrors. use.
"... He loves to drink or not, a group of pampered little white faces." As a company commander of the prisoner of war camp, Wang Gongliang was promoted because of this border war. When he saw a British prisoner of war glaring at himself, he stepped forward without a word, "Don't think he is here in Britain. Look at your unscrupulous capitalist, what do we Chinese eat!"
Wang Gongliang took out several pictures from the newspaper, which were torn from the arms of a British spinning mill worker in a suburb of Shanghai. On the camera, no rice was even seen in the pot. "Uncle is in a good mood today, and I will teach you a idiom for the foreign savages. Remember, what is Lishang exchanges? Lao Tzu said, this is called Lishang exchanges ... It is time for me to mine mine!"
As soon as the watch pointer was pointing at 6.15, Wang Gongliang waved his hand, regardless of the British and French who were busy pouring soup in their mouths, and ordered the soldiers to carry their rifles to mine. "Don't talk too much, right? Old rules, the first 3,000 people who completed the task came out of the mine, there were steamed buns, vegetables and fatty meat. The middle three thousand people came out to complete the task, there are steamed bread and pickles. The last four thousand came out, each There is only one gimmick! "
Said to be a hoe, not much bigger than a fist.
Watching the meek foreign devils scrambling to pick up their own rattan and rushed into the mine, for nearly two months, these gentlemen who had always been high above the ground and only knew that drinking wine and playing with women, had already been adjusted by the service.
In the words of the British, the Chinese are too harsh.
Those who violate the prisoner of war camp regulations, such as those who sing in the middle of the night, sing in the morning and go to the convenience, eat without washing the dishes, break the bowl, throw away the tools to mine, can not afford to buy ...
Any violation of the rules will be ignored, and various kinds of punishments that are not life-threatening will continue to emerge. For example, the simplest punishment station is a bad-looking Englishman who has been standing for nearly four hours. Was holding hands for the last time. There are also unlucky people in France. They are not allowed to sleep. The Chinese will prepare various shows for these disobedient prisoners of war. They are as small as applause and as large as pulling people in front of heavy machine guns and training with heavy machine gun shooters. Some are really Can't help it, his eyelids were actually supported by a wooden stick.
In short, those who violated the regulations of the corresponding prisoners of war each received very terrible punishment.
Maybe these punishments are not life-saving, but they are enough to make these prideful British and French choose obedient obedience. The Chinese may not kill themselves, but they will find themselves in enough pain between life and death.
With such a rectification method, the foreign devils in the prisoner of war camps have become refined one by one, and all of them have thrown away the of the gentleman. When the soldiers go west, they go west. He held his and waited. m
Of course, these are only basic daily management. Only working in the mine is the most important thing in the prisoner of war camp. The Chinese do not consider concessions at all in this matter. 10,000 prisoners of war, in three grades, from the first grade can "satisfy" full, to the last grade can only eat a small overnight cold head pads belly, all of them out of ten Twenty thousand points of motivation.
It must be said that among this 10,000 people, there are no lack of smart people, and there may even be future politicians, military men, thieves, and liars. But no matter what they are, in the face of human beings' basic hunger instinct, they have chosen to fight.
These romantic Britons and French people became downright prisoners of war, poor losers who were completely played with by the Chinese in the palm of their hands in order to survive.
In fact, in the meaning of Zhang Shusheng, torture these prisoners of war is only the most superficial reason, and it is not his intention to vent his personal emotions. His original intention was to let these captives, from the day they fell into the hands of the Chinese, be torn off the false mask of civilization and unearth the dark side of their humanity. Either the strict prisoner of war regulations or the special classification of lunch are just means of training. Neither the British nor the French found that they had been tortured again and again in these trivial matters, and they had actually learned to resign.
Zhang Shusheng knew that he was not a German, and he would not be so cruel to the point of extinction. He, of course, is a real civilized man. He must reason and take his time.
Gradually, in less than two months, these Englishmen or Frenchmen were used to fighting madly. When going down the mine, each other's ore, and when eating, someone's bowl. As for snatching personal belongings, sorry, the prisoner of war had two pieces of ragged clothes. Whenever this time, the original brutal Chinese people did not stop, but stood by and watched them.
Finally, in the evening, the prisoners of war had just finished the battle set for the second half of the day, and they were preparing to have dinner. The head of the delegation, Gu Tianfeng, came to the prisoner of war camp.
"Gentlemen, there is a very important thing to announce to you today, of course, this is good news. After careful decision, the Southwest Government decided to negotiate with the joint negotiation team of the British and French governments, and prisoners of war will be among them. A negotiation issue. The Southwestern government has decided to conduct negotiations on the release of 3,000 captives in advance. According to the ten groups you usually allocate, you will be given the opportunity to fight for freedom fully tomorrow. "Gu Tianfeng stood on the podium, Looking at the densely packed group of ten people below, he laughed playfully: "Of course, I know that each of you wants to return to the British to enjoy your wine and women, but I still want to remind you, Only three thousand people in three groups can become winners. If this time misses the chance, maybe you can only catch up with the second and even tenth POW negotiations in a few years. Don't blame the Southwest government, it is Your government is too poor to afford the price. Otherwise, I would like to kick all your beast-like idiots back to Britain and France. Go. The Chinese are a country that admires the strong, and we will give priority to let the real strong, like a hero, return to your country ... "
Although being reprimanded by Gu Tianfeng without dignity, the prisoners of war lighted up one by one. They have had enough of the suffering of the prisoner of war camp. The Chinese did not torture the prisoners. They were even better than the Germans. However, their methods were more insidious, and they were all insidious. You can never tell others that you have chosen to obey because you can't stand standing for a long time ...
Ten thousand people were divided into ten groups. With the intentional or unintentional induction of Chinese soldiers, two months was enough time for these ten groups to accumulate full hatred. The British or French, whose conflicts have been very strong on weekdays, have all shown their vicious eyes.
Can't provoke the Chinese, can't it provoke other idiots. I can your ore and your lunch and dinner. The first 3,000 places to be negotiated must be snatched!
"Sun, I am very dissatisfied with the behavior of the Southwest Government."
When the British-French joint negotiating team, led by George, finally arrived at this purportedly recent prisoner of war camp, George who jumped off the car was already on the verge of violence.
Recalling a few years ago, I even participated in the transfer of prisoners of war with the Germans. Speaking of which, the hatred of Britain and France and the Germans is more than this borderless war. However, after the war in Europe, both sides can sit down and talk about it. Unlike this time, they have been counted by the Chinese one after another.
First, he was forced to ride a bumpy car to Kunming, and even ate the cold dishes for breakfast. George, who pretended to be extraordinary, was already on the verge of madness. However, Sun Changqing, who seemed to have a bad ear, didn't seem to hear him at all, but instead advanced into a prisoner of war camp.叶 ^ 子 # 悠 悠 m
"... The government has not forgotten you. In this negotiation, we represent the great Commonwealth and the great French Empire, and will ..."
"K, I want to go back !!!"
"T, brit, take us back !!!"
George's speech had just begun, and he was smugly interrupted by the prisoners of war below. He couldn't help but be a little angry, and the prisoners of war were dressed in tattered clothes and had no gentleman appearance, which made him very dissatisfied. For the sake of being bullied by the Chinese, he had forgiven them. Now, as the messenger who came to save them, he was so impolite.
"K, Glenn, you shit, you want to go back and fist first."
"Royce, you idiot, usually grab my meal and grab my mine. Today, I am going to knock you down with my fist. You are Chinese running dogs, and we should go back."
"This punch is a greeting to your mother!"
...
Standing on the tall podium, George originally wanted to reprimand these nearly 10,000 undisciplined prisoners of war who did not know the image, but what happened next surprised him without even knowing that the speech slipped from his hand.
Thousands of British and French people on the simple square leveled out by the man. They didn't know what it was, and at this time they had already formed a ball. If you look closely, you can see that they are roughly divided into a dozen camps, and each camp is dealing with other camps, and they are also wary of being overthrown by other camps.
George was stunned and had no idea what was going on.
How did he know that the Chinese had generously revealed their hole cards in advance. If this is a prisoner of war camp in Europe, then these people may still pretend to be gentlemen after two months in the prison, but after two months in the prisoner of war in the southwest, they are used to fists and domineering Regardless of his true nature, all the powerful talk. This is how the Chinese told them that the first opportunities for 3,000 people must not be taken away by cowards.
In the original impression, these British or French people saw their arrival and should be rejoicing and encouraging them to wait for their negotiation victory and then take them home. However, at this time, George found himself wrong.
The scene was completely chaotic and everyone was beating him for unknown reasons. Some people punched each other's face, some even bit their ears, and two or three of them pressed against one or two people and beat them ...
The fight, a mega-open-air brawl by tens of thousands of people, a so-called civilized man takes seriously a fight between journalists and politicians from all over the world.
Journalists from all over the country and all over the country specially invited by the southwest government finally opened their eyes. Originally known as the civilized nations of Britain and France, the prisoners of war fought only when they first saw the messenger, and even beaten to death like the ancient Spartans. The Chinese, however, stood side by side politely. During the riots, not even the rifle on their shoulders was put down, but they were carried on their backs safely. There was no excuse for punishing an Englishman or Frenchman, nor was there any arrest and firing.
Avril Lavigne was also in the crowd. When he saw such a hot news subject, he hurriedly asked his assistant to take a picture: "Quick, take a picture ..."
"No, no, don't shoot!"
George suddenly woke up, but then realized a more serious problem, "Mr. Sun, I ask your soldiers to stop this farce immediately. Otherwise, I will regard this as a premeditation of your Chinese."
"Mr. George, not only you and me, but also journalists, and some distinguished representatives of the United States and Germany, and so on. Everyone saw that no Chinese soldier, not even a Chinese, provoked This fight. IMHO, they are like crazy ... "Sun Changqing expressed his regrets politely. "You are a senior British government official. I think you should have enough deterrence to deter them."
George moved angrily forward, stood by the rostrum, ready to dissuade, "I, as the plenipotentiary of the Joint Negotiating Group, ordered you to stand ... oh ..."
It's a pity that before the words were finished, a pair of stinky things were thrown up from the stage, smashed into the face of George Plenipotentiary, and looked down at the painful left eye. It was actually a pair of rotten military boots, and it was still British. Soldier's uniform ...
"Well, I agree that you must take any action that does not include killings, and you must stop the riots immediately." George compromised, and if he continued to fight, he would have killed someone in his presence. The Chinese do n’t lose face, he does n’t know, the British face will surely become a floor tile all over the world, and everyone will step on it.
Sun Changqing handed a look to Chen Jun beside him, who nodded to Gu Tianfeng in the distance and signaled it.
Gu Tianfeng got the order, walked to the rostrum, and yelled, "Stop! Turn left!"
This was not a call to prisoners in Britain and France who were fighting like crazy dogs, but to the guards. The guards turned around and heard the words, put down their rifles, raised them in front of their chests, and stared at the British and French prisoners of war as they were fighting.
The troops of the two battalions that were specially adjusted were moving uniformly, with a loud beat, and the lively British and French prisoners of war that were hitting them were suddenly frightened. Looking at the Chinese soldiers, I felt that everyone's eyes were transparent. Murderous, maybe if you fight again, the other party really wants to shoot.
The lives of the prisoners of war are good. If they knew that with just one command, these soldiers would really kill them on the spot, or they might be frightened.
The reporters present, officials from the United States and Germany, and British and French negotiators were all dismayed. Although the economy in the Southwest is not as good as their own country, at least the army in front of them is absolutely elite. Those who participated in the European War among the representatives of Britain and France are even more shocked. The ordinary army guarding the prisoner of war camp may already have the style of the most elite German troops of the year.
"Mr. Sun, we still go back to continue the negotiations." George was full of anger and had nowhere to vent. Today he really lost his face. The British and the French were ashamed to the point at the same time in front of many reporters from various countries. He is a plenipotentiary. Can't wait to find a hole to drill down.
Damn, if I didn't have to take you back, I would even let you dregs stay in China. George cursed fiercely. Unfortunately, he couldn't.
"... First, as an instigator of this war, the Southwest Government of China should bear all the fighting costs of the British and French parties in the war, totaling 23.65 million pounds ... Second, the Ruili area will be rented for a fee. Give the Myanmar government 99 years ... Third, the United Kingdom and Japan jointly leased Fangchenggang for 99 years ... Fourth, return all prisoners of war ... Fifth, Zhang Shusheng will personally apologize to the British and French governments ... "
"Oh!" When he heard the British read the terms of this negotiation, Sun Changqing didn't hold back, he took a sip of tea, and he didn't care about the image. He was not too young, and slapped him on the table. : "Mr. George, I hope to clarify a problem before our negotiations begin. In this war of aggression by the British and the French against southwest China, you are the losers."
",, Mr. Sun, it was your chief general who slaughtered our soldiers and patrolled in Shanghai that led to the outbreak of war." George countered.
"Huh, we just punished the executioner who deserved the crime. They fired on the students, which is a heinous crime not allowed in the world!" Sun Changqing retorted.
"But there is the concession and we have extraterritorial jurisdiction. Moreover, we have not failed. We are in Myanmar, India, Vietnam, China's coast, and there are more than 100,000 or more troops. We can enter China at any time. Friendly negotiations are good intentions, "George quibbled.
Sun Changqing: "Either the concession or seizure, it's all our Chinese territory. Extraterritoriality is not suitable for this crime against humanity. When it comes to war, we are always waiting for you. I want to remind you, Mr. Plenipotentiary, to leave here Britain is thousands of miles away, and we are only a few hundred miles away from Myanmar. Of course, I think the German government would very much like to see your country send troops to the Far East again, but maybe your people will have different opinions! "
"You ..." George was a little verbal. The old man was really cunning. According to the information, he didn't even go abroad. Why do he know the international situation so well?
At the time of the Sino-French war, George was also clear. Therefore, he advocated the formation of a negotiating group by Britain and France in order to strengthen the momentum. Sending more troops to Burma is also his suggestion, so that both the north and the south put pressure on the southwest, which is also one of the auxiliary actions for negotiations.
All this was because he wanted to talk about the negotiations as the second Sino-French war.
In the Qing Dynasty, when the war was won, the end was impossible. They did not know enough about the domestic situation in France. As a result, the Frenchmen who were strong and strong at one time actually got what they could not get on the battlefield from the negotiating table.
However, the attitude of the Chinese this time seems a little different! !!
Negotiate and move forward in a deadlock.
When Liu Dengke, one of the Chinese representatives' turn, announced the Chinese conditions, George and Sun Changqing almost jumped.
"First, Britain and France should bear all the responsibilities of this war and compensate the southwest government for military expenses, economic losses, war damage, mass comfort, and early captive expenses, totaling 25 million pounds. Second, Britain and France must punish war criminals and give them China tried. In addition, Britain and Japan must publicly apologize for the May 15 tragedy, punish the killers, and give the Chinese people an account. Third, Britain and Japan immediately withdrew from Fangchenggang. Fifth, the first 3,000 people Captive ransom is £ 5 million ... "
"You are extortion, naked extortion, I will never agree to any of them." George snorted.
Sun Changqing: "Mr. George doesn't need to worry. When you read the conditions before, we didn't agree to any of them. It just happened."
"Mr. Sun, you should understand that under such harsh conditions, our three countries, Britain, France, and Japan, will never agree. I think maybe war is more suitable for us."
George was about to get up and leave. Originally, the Japanese wanted to participate in the negotiations, but they were severely rejected by Zhang Shusheng. Even the two observer countries, the Americans and the Germans, could not participate in the negotiations. At the negotiating table, there were only a dozen representatives from Britain and France and the Chinese. Delegates from the North and South governments, politicians from other countries, were all put aside.
"Then, let's see each other again. However, friendship reminds Mr. George that the war can continue and the battle of 300,000 people will take half a year to see. Mr. George must not forget to pay on time The living expenses of more than 30,000 captives are too poor in the southwest. If one day eats the bark to make a living, it will be dead. Maybe I am worried, at that time, I ca n’t say that the Conservative Party should come to power again. You will probably be unfavorable again ... "
A word from Sun Changqing immediately defeated George, who was pretending to be aggressive. Yeah, no matter how he pretended, the war must not continue, and the captives needed to be taken back one hundred percent. All these are not his own wishes, but they have become the expectations of all British people and the basis of the Labour Party's governing.
"Dear Mr. Sun, I just thought of a new direction. Maybe we can explore this in more depth ..." George decided that the negotiations must continue, and even if the results could not be reached one day, one month, one month, the negotiations could not completely fail. Otherwise, when you return to the UK, you will surely be greeted not by a rotten egg, but by a black gun.
Sun Changqing, who had long been mentally prepared, couldn't help seeing George's eating, and of course he was not in a hurry. It was best to negotiate slowly. Just like Shu Sheng said, it would be nice to talk about the last year and a half. Whether the southwest government should develop the economy or continue to develop the economy, everything will go back to before the war. Work hard to save for the next war.
Let yourself talk slowly with the British and the French. As for Shu Sheng, the whole southwest is still waiting for him to build.
Half a month later, Zhang Shusheng's office.
"President, why did you so easily agree to the British redemption of prisoners of war?" Mao Yun first made Zhang Shusheng's tea tanned by Grandpa Sun, folk small clear tea, and had a unique flavor.
Zhang Shusheng brought the tea and did not answer. He opened the tea with a lid and sipped it with a sip of taste. Then he laughed: "The captives of 3000 are just for them to taste something fresh. Only 1 million pounds is a few bucks. This group of people will return to Britain, and the remaining soldiers will really go crazy. Imagine what would happen if you were soldiers? "
"They will run to block the Prime Minister's House every day. Noisy to ask their son to go home!" Mao Yun flashed before his eyes, but that was not the case.
"That's right! If you want to go first, don't give a little sweetness, how can the British click?"
Zhang Shusheng laughed secretly. The British were anxious to achieve success. When the negotiations reached an impasse, UU read a book www.uukanshu. com thought it would be a good thing to send some prisoners of war back to solve their urgent needs, but did not expect that if they did this to raise the requirements for follow-up negotiations, they would inevitably suffer in the future. At that time they will naturally know that Xiaocheong is not so good. You have to spit out more. Whoever makes you losers, there is a way to send hundreds of thousands of troops from thousands of miles away. In addition, I really do not fear anything else.
Westerners, every day shouting equality and equality, I want to see, 3,000 people go back, and 30,000 people stay here, who is more anxious.

Thank you, Shengshi Zhonghua, for inspiring my Tianwei brothers and the three young masters! Brother's reward. The prosperous Chinese brothers also became the second elders in this book, and are grateful. Of course, I also thank other readers for their support, such as the 70-year-old brother and Baoying Brothers for their persistent support.
At night, the computer broke down, the graphics card burned, and finally went to the Internet cafe to write it. It was uploaded at 4:42. Hey, I feel that earning some money is more tiring than peasant workers, and the income is even less than the latest minimum guaranteed wage in Shanghai. . .
Brothers, support it and do your best. 7500, gossip does not count. V
