Chapter 749 You are a bit extreme
Kuala Lumpur.
Accompanied by the unique roar of jet aircraft, a 717 jet airliner passed through the sky and flew toward the northeast.
Standing on the balcony of the Commissioner's Office, looking at the white swan retreating in the distance, General Templer, who was originally solemn, said with a faint smile on his face.
“Okay, now the oil pan is hot.”
The words of the High Commissioner were spoken by his secretary Duncan.
"Mr. Commissioner, are you talking about this agreement?"
Nodding, General Templer took out a cigar, nodded, and started smoking silently. Duncan said as he smoked his cigar.
“General, with the influx of refugees from Tangshan in northern French Indochina, it will inevitably lead to a surge in the total population of Tangshan immigrants in the United States, and the population of Tangshan will show an overwhelming advantage. In this case, The dissatisfaction of the local indigenous people is bound to be further intensified, I am worried..."
Seeing that the high commissioner did not speak, Duncan said with an increased tone.
"I'm worried that this will inevitably cause a new round of chaos. Now the rebels in the rainforest are fleeing to Siam. The situation is getting better. If there is an ethnic conflict between the Tang people and the Malays, the situation will definitely worsen."
In fact, in past negotiations, this was also what they were most worried about.
Of course, what they are worried about is not the opposition of the indigenous people, and what they care about is never the interests of the indigenous people. After all, for them, they have never cared about the interests of the indigenous people.
For the British, nothing is more important than their ability to rule this land for a long time.
The so-called caring about the feelings of the indigenous people is actually just caring about whether his rule in Malaya will be shaken.
"So what?"
General Templer said after taking a puff of cigarette.
“What we need now is to stay out of the situation and let the Tang people rush to the front. As for the indigenous people... they still need a fire. We just need to slowly raise the fire, and wait until the fire is lit... "
General Templer smiled at Duncan with a soothing look. The cracked corners of his mouth turned into a sneer unconsciously, and said:
"Those Tang people You will know what it means to draw water from a bamboo basket and get nothing!”
Hearing this, Duncan's heart suddenly tightened. Looking at the general with a sneer on his face, his mood suddenly became a little complicated. Could it be that the general's performance was... too confident?
……
Too confident!
On the plane back to Chang'an, looking at the commander with his eyes closed to rest, Lin Tianqi didn't know why this idea suddenly came to his mind.
"Apocalypse, it seems you have some doubts in your heart."
After thinking for a while, he expressed his doubts.
"Commander, what we are doing now is almost adding fuel to the fire!"
Listening to the judgment of his subordinates, Li Guoren, as the chief of foreign affairs, said "hmm".
“I think General Templer’s concerns are very realistic. The locals have been dissatisfied with the Tang people for a long time. If large-scale immigration continues, it will inevitably intensify the conflict between the two. This is obviously not true. It is conducive to the stability of Malaya."
Until then, Li Guoren slowly opened his eyes and looked at Lin Tianqi and said.
"If he was really worried, he would not sign the agreement. Even if the situation is destroyed... but so what?"
"Chief..."
Lin Tianqi looked at the commander with some confusion and said.
“Aren’t we intervening in Malaya’s affairs just to maintain the local situation and restore local order? Now that the situation there is stabilizing, why should we intensify the conflicts?”
"Apocalypse, do you think a stable situation is good for us?"
The chief's rhetorical question made Lin Tianqi feel a little confused.
“We are sending troops, isn’t it just for, for...”
“For what? To restore local order and allow everyone to return to a peaceful and safe life, right?”
>
When the young man in front of him nodded, Li Guoren took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, lit it, took a puff, and whispered slowly in the smoke.
“But, if it’s really peaceful there, how will we get along?”
"We?"
Lin Tianqi was stunned and said.
"General Commander, you mean our local garrison?"
"Yes, nothing is going on at home, will you still allow outsiders' troops to be stationed there?" Smoking, Li Guoren taught patiently.
"So, adding fuel to the fire is not a bad thing."
"This, this..."
Lin Tianqi said in shock.
“Are we doing so much just to station troops locally for a long time?”
“No!”
Li Guoren shook his head and said.
"Not only for this reason, but also... this might not be a plan to kill two birds with one stone."
"Kill two birds with one stone?"
Lin, who was still a little confused at first Tianqi, after thinking about it for a while, lost his voice.
"Chief, Nan, are you trying to lure the snake out of the hole? First use this to arouse the dissatisfaction of the indigenous people, and then use this opportunity to clean up all the indigenous people. In this way, not only will the indigenous people's problems be solved. The problem can be solved together with the Malay problem."
The corners of his mouth raised, Li Guoren said with a grin.
"Tianqi, you are a little extreme!"
As he said this, Li Guoren showed a somewhat relieved smile.
……
In the early morning, people in shabby clothes were crowded inside and outside Hanoi Airport. In the past two years, these refugees have fled from the border between Yunnan and Guangxi provinces into French Indo-China. , have been living in Hanoi and the north and south banks of the Red River. They are either doing business or working, or renting land to make a living.
The reason why they are unwilling to leave here is actually because there is a glimmer of hope in their hearts - just like the General Huang who was on Phu Quoc Island said - one day he will take them home.
Although they did not escape with General Huang, they just wanted to escape the war, to... Now, they sometimes look to the north, hoping to go home one day, but now, hope has long since changed Became despair.
But as the situation worsened, these people living in foreign countries were once again exposed to the flames of war. Just when they felt confused and fearful about the future, hope came once again.
There was news in newspapers and radio broadcasts that Nanyang would send a plane to pick them up.
“All expats can evacuate French Indo-China through Hanoi Airport!”
Well, you don’t have to worry anymore.
“Hey, I really didn’t expect that after so many years of hesitation, I would eventually go to Nanyang.”
Standing on the grass near the airport, Lin Guodong adjusted his glasses and couldn’t help but He glanced towards the north and said softly.
“I thought I would be able to go home sooner or later, but now...”
“I can’t go back.”
Wang Jie, who was sitting next to him, said.
"Didn't you read in the newspaper that even the Americans can't defeat them, so why go back? What are you dreaming about?..."
As he said this, he muttered something , although it was not clear, Lin Guodong still heard it and said.
“Hey, you are a bit extreme!”
As he said this, Lin Guodong raised his head and looked at the sky. He could not see anything, but his heart began to worry. Indescribable joy.
Suddenly, a shout came from beside Lin Guodong:
"The plane is coming, the plane is coming..."
Suddenly, the crowd at the airport was like ants, moving towards the barbed wire fence surrounding the airport. Crowded away, if there were not French soldiers blocking them, they would probably be able to break through the barbed wire fence and run to the runway by now.
The sharp-eyed person pointed at the small black dot at the end of the sky and shouted excitedly.
“Plane, a plane is really coming!”
Amid people's excited shouts, five six-engine super giants roared and landed at Hanoi Airport. Everyone was dumbfounded when they looked at the huge body of the aircraft.
“This, this plane is really big...”
The super giant taking off from Da Nang Airport not only brought hope to these refugees, but also brought food and even And the clothes - even though they were refugees, Nanyang still wanted to look neat and tidy when they evacuated, instead of looking tattered and like beggars.
