Eighty-five kill the chicken and show it to the monkey
However, Ade is Ade after all. A few days later, he led his brothers from the Ministry of Manpower to do something that surprised everyone.
——Ade, Guo Yi and others organized a grievance meeting among the foreign prisoners of war.
All foreigners were designated to attend this meeting, including Princess Anna and Captain Andrew, who were also asked to observe. For this reason, the engineering team was specially allowed to suspend work for one day. It was not the foreigners who came forward to complain, but it was also the Princess.
The members of the galleon—the two Chinese translators.
One of them, Wang Tongshi, was an expatriate who traveled to Southeast Asia during the Jiajing period and was hired on board a ship in Batavia. He originally lived in the Philippines, but in 1603, the Spanish massacre in the Philippines caused him to lose everything.
Family. Wang Yan, who was only in his teens at the time, escaped by hiding among the corpses of his parents and relatives.
Wang Tongshi, who is already in his forties, still can't forget that terrible scene. He recalled with tears how his mother used her body to block the fatal bayonet for him, and then hid under the body of his own father.
For two whole days, even if the body started to rot, I didn't dare to poke my head out...
In order to prevent anyone from pretending to be dead, the Spaniards would stab every corpse they dragged out for burial with a spear. Wang Yan showed everyone the huge scar on his stomach: it was the mark of being pierced by a Spanish halberd.
. At the same time, there were teeth marks deep into the bones of his arm - he bit his arm tightly to make no sound and escaped. After that, he moved to Indonesia, the territory of the Dutch, to make a living.
The Dutch were also very cruel to the Chinese. But because they needed their labor, they were still allowed to survive there. These people must have never imagined that even if they endured so hard until 1740, there would still be a "Red Creek Massacre" waiting for them.
Hold them.
Another Chinese servant, Lin Sihai, was a native Penghu fisherman. Originally, he should have had nothing to do with foreigners in his life, but in the second year of the Great Ming Dynasty, that is, 1622, the Dutch occupied Penghu and surrounded the surrounding areas.
All Chinese people were forcibly captured and fortresses were built for them. Lin Sihai was fishing on the nearby ocean that day. When he returned to the fishing village, he found that the entire village had been burned to the ground, and he and his fishing boat were captured by red-haired people.
Walk.
Since that day, he never saw his wife and children again.
More than 4,000 Chinese people were captured as slave labor, and more than 1,300 of them died in the hard work. However, after the construction of the fortress was completed, the remaining 2,000 Chinese fishermen were used as slaves by Fleet Commander Rayerson
, sent directly to the Dutch Governor Gunn of Batavia.
They were tortured again on the ship. Countless people died of starvation and disease. Even if they were slightly unwell, they would be thrown into the sea as a source of infectious diseases. In the end, less than half of this group of Chinese were able to reach Indonesia alive.
Lin Sihai has always behaved very honestly, so he can survive and learn a few foreign languages. He was given as a gift to Captain Andrew by the Governor of Batavia. The latter never knew about this obedient Asia.
The servant had such a miserable past, and of course, he never cared about it.
At this time, when old Jack translated Lin Sihai's intermittent cries into Latin word by word with a livid face, Captain Andrew, who had always been full of "gentleman" demeanor before, was obviously restless. Almost all foreigners had the same reaction, even
Miss Anna, who had always been calm and calm, and who seemed to be panicked by nothing, could no longer sit still - and told Julie next to her that she and the Princess had not been in the East for a long time and had never done anything explicit.
After not knowing about the bad things done by Chinese people, she used her "young lady's privilege" and hurriedly left the venue on the grounds of feeling unwell.
No one here stopped her, and the original purpose of holding this conference was not against her. In fact, the people who reacted the most to these things were not the foreign sailors, but the Ming army prisoners of war officers and soldiers who were also transferred to observe, as well as the employees of the engineering team
local people coming.
Zhang Ling and Zhang Ruheng were originally from Shaanxi. They had been transferred to the south for less than half a year. They originally looked down upon the few interpreters who were mixed among the foreign devils. They felt that they had forgotten their ancestors and had lost the face of their ancestors. But at this moment, after hearing those two
After this tragic experience, the first person to jump up was also this Shaanxi man.
Amidst the yelling, Zhang Ruheng swung his fist towards Captain Andrew - he was the most gorgeously dressed among all the foreigners. He knew he was the leader at a glance. There were more than ten others who were moving with him.
They are hot-blooded men, and the two sides have fought several times in the past ten days. In the past, these foreigners were very arrogant, and they would definitely fight if there was any slight friction. But now, seeing them rushing over, many foreign sailors actually chose
avoid……
However, the organizers of the conference will definitely not let this fight break out - Ade and the others have already used local employees to separate the two parties. At this time, they are acting evil and restraining the people. If you want to fight, you can go back after the meeting.
It's not too late to fight again.
As the mood of the masses was aroused, the atmosphere that the organizers hoped for finally came out. One after another, locals or Ming army prisoners came forward to tell everyone about their personal experiences, or learned that neighbors and friends around them had once
The tragic deeds that have been suffered are all disasters caused by Westerners.
This kind of collective atmosphere is the most contagious to emotions. As long as one person cries, a large group of people will cry too;
Foreign sailors showed clear signs of fear.
If it were just a group of unarmed yellow men shouting like this, they might not take it seriously, but now all the Easterners guarding them are armed with live ammunition, and they had already fully experienced the lesson when they landed - these short-haired Chinese
People have no problem killing white people.
Many foreign sailors came forward and repeatedly stated in various languages, including broken Chinese, that they had just arrived in the East from Europe not long ago and had not done anything that was not allowed by God. Captain Andrew and his men
The first mate also took Old Jack and kept explaining, saying that the Princess belonged to neither the Dutch nor the Spanish, but was just "traveling" in the East, and should not be held responsible for the sins of those two countries...
However, Old Jack has no idea about all this. In fact, this pure American still hasn't figured out why the Chinese companions around him would rather stop all the work at hand and gather people together to start this kind of thing.
It seems like a meeting purely for the purpose of promoting hatred.
Of course he has sympathy for white Europeans, but in this situation, no matter how slow Jack is, he knows that he cannot go against the angry majority. He can only try his best to faithfully and accurately translate for those white sailors and help them translate these
The defense statement was translated to the Chinese companions next to me.
However, Pang Yu silenced Captain Andrew, who was full of aggrieved expression, with just one sentence:
"What are you here for this time?"
Thinking of his previous purpose, Captain Andrew's face became paler. He had basically been treated equally for more than ten days. He really thought that these Orientals were very gentlemanly. But now, he suddenly remembered that he almost
An identity that was once forgotten - a prisoner of war.
Seeing that the mood of the scene had been aroused, Ade winked at Guo Yi, who nodded knowingly - to destroy the arrogance of these white people, it is impossible without some harsh medicine. The previous complaints were to fight for a position.
Legitimacy, but without actual force as a deterrent, just pretending to be Xianglin's Wife will only be ridiculed in vain.
The Princess Anna has not been in Southeast Asia for a long time, and its crew may not have done any evil deeds, but there are several Dutch crew members among the captives this time. Of the two Dutch Flute ships that were sunk, one of them
The ship happened to be the one that transported slave laborers from Penghu to Batavia. Lin Sihai even recognized that one of the rescued prisoners had personally pushed the Chinese fellow prisoners tied with him from the ship into the sea.
Because the other party coughed all night.
At this time, the unlucky guy was tied up and dragged up. Lin Sihai burst into tears and accused him of his crime. Then, naturally, shouts of "Kill him!" resounded around the venue.
Arousing the emotions of the masses and then complying with their demands - this is the most important means of mass movement. Since there is such a ready-made chicken, of course it must be pulled out to show the power of the monkeys.
Guo Yi stood up and served as a temporary judge. After talking about the Rhode Island Maritime Law, he announced that the Dutchman was sentenced to death for piracy and murder. In fact, in their group, there was a Miss Su Wuxiang who specialized in law.
She is a talented person. Her professional expertise is international trade, maritime law and civil and commercial law. However, it is a bit stressful for a girl to stand up and declare someone to death, so she had to let Guo Yi learn a bunch of nouns from her, and then stand up
Come out and pronounce judgment.
Amid desperate cries, the Dutch sailor was taken to the square in front of the county government office. There, a newly erected gallows stood tall, with a dark and shiny rope loop hanging slightly from the top of the gallows.
