The so-called Capture Instruction Manual is actually a background information for travelers compiled by the Executive Committee, just like a spy who wants to sneak into enemy-occupied territory must have a completely new life experience. [No pop-up novel website]. Travelers also need something like this to explain their origins and purpose.
The entire set of information was compiled under the auspices of Yu E Shui. It is generally based on the version of the Song Dynasty survivors who opened Australia as described by Wen Desi when engaging in two-way trade, with many details added. The psychological and cultural factors of the people at that time were taken into consideration to the greatest extent. Of course, no matter how clever a historian is, it is impossible to fully grasp the real social conditions and psychology at that time, so the manual has been continuously revised since D-Day. The Guangzhou advance station personnel and the crew members of the self-proclaimed naval transport group were the first to be equipped with the trial version.
"If you encounter any problems when interacting with indigenous people, please contact the headquarters as soon as possible. This manual will be constantly revised." Xiao Zishan said, "In case of being captured, remember the caliber and the three layers of defense."
The reason for coming to Daming was to set up three layers of protection. The first level, of course, says they are here to do business. If they are threatened with torture, they can admit that there is civil strife in Australia and that they came to the Ming Dynasty to escape the civil strife. If they still don’t believe it and continue to be tortured, they can admit that the traveler is from Australia. The losing side in civil strife.
As for the iron ships, machines, and weapons, the external caliber of the time traveler is that they were brought from Australia, and they have no idea how to make them. Commercial technology for civilian use can only be revealed in life-threatening situations.
Generally speaking, the prisoner policy formulated by the Executive Committee is: confession is allowed, but rebellion is not allowed. Travelers can confess under the worst circumstances after being captured - including the truth that they are travellers - although the other party may not believe this truth. However, they are not allowed to actively serve other regimes and forces with the technology, information and other capabilities they possess.
"This is relatively vague. How can we call it initiative? After the traitor is caught, he will say that he was forced." Bei Wei remained silent during the entire discussion, but he couldn't help but mention it when talking about the prisoner policy. One piece.
Xiao Zishan smiled bitterly: "The prisoner policy is quite sensitive, so now I can only speak more vividly."
"I don't agree with this." Bei Wei shook his head, but he did not express his opinion further.
"To sum up, try not to be caught. Don't let it fall into the hands of Dongchang and Jinyiwei. Even if you are thrown into the county jail for a few days, it will be enough for you to forget for the rest of your life!"
The boarding Yingzhou returned, and Xiao Zishan also came back with the ship - there was nothing to do in Guangzhou, everything was left to Guo Yi and the others, including the negotiations with Gao Ju. If he stepped in too much, he would not be able to handle it in the future. It is unfavorable to the development of Guangzhou Advance Station.
Except for the sick, young and weak, all the purchased slaves were put on the ship. It was really crowded with nearly a hundred people on a 78-ton ship. Fortunately, it only took a few days to travel by sea. , they could only insist on being wronged. In comparison, the endurance of the travelers during the entire voyage was obviously not as good as that of the people locked in the bottom cabin. Not long after they went to sea, the group of people were suffocated by the urine that continued to leak out of the bottom cabin. The smell made me vomit, saying that the slave trader's business was really difficult. No one cares about pirates who don't return pirates, so they take the fastest route and go straight to Bopu.
Before the ship even arrived, the entire health department was mobilized to prepare for the quarantine—a task now officially known as “purification.” This is the first time that such a large population has been imported from the continent. In order to prepare for the upcoming large-scale population import, the Executive Committee built an immigration quarantine area in Lingaojiao.
Guo Sanniang and Tian Sanwu climbed out of the dirty cabin along with the crowd, panting heavily and breathing in the fresh air. During the two days of drifting at sea, except for the person who had the chance to climb up to the deck to take a breather when it was his turn to empty the urine bucket, everyone else stayed in a small area in the bottom cabin, not to mention the unpleasant smell. Fortunately, the sailors gave them enough water and dry food every day. For Guo Sanniang and Tian Sanwu, two people who were not seasick, life was not too bad.
"Sanniang, where do you think we are -"
"Don't talk!" Standing on the other side of the springboard was a tall and burly man with short clothes and a long stick in his hand.
Tian Sanwu was shocked. What kind of royal law was this? He was not even allowed to speak. But since he had been sold into slavery, he had better be obedient and shut up quickly.
The slaves who were driven out from the bottom cabin rushed to the corridor separated by wooden planks before they understood what was going on. There is a table on each side of the corridor entrance, and there are some bamboo steamer-like things piled on the side.
"Men have to go to the left, women have to go to the right!" A short-haired guy was holding something like a trumpet at the door and yelled, "You, what about you! Why are you running to a man as a woman!"
"my son--"
"Your son can't run away, go to the right!"
Tian Sanwu and Guo Sanniang were separated in front of the corridor. After more than a year of wandering, the two teenagers had developed a bond of shared weal and woe. Now that they were breaking up, Tian Sanwu felt sour. He saw that there seemed to be tears in the corners of Guo Sanniang's eyes.
"Take out everything and put it on the table. Don't hide things privately." The short-haired Mitada Sango who said this and the girl on the other side looked at each other with some reluctance, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid. You can meet again in the future." After saying that, he gave him a small bamboo sign tied with a string and hung it around his neck.
"Don't drop it! You'll need this to eat and get your luggage back when the time comes. Don't you have one?"
Tian Sanwu shook his head - he was a wanderer, so he had no luggage. If he had any luggage, it was just a stoneware jar for begging, which he had thrown away before boarding the ship. The others had almost nothing like him except a pair of rags. Only a few of them had some coins, combs, a few rags and other things with them. These were all thrown into the steamer with a number on it. inside.
At the end of the corridor, there is a large pool separated by wooden boards, filled with clean water.
"One by one, crawl across the pool!" A short-haired man standing on the high platform directed. Everyone looked at each other, is this a bath? Why do you have to crawl over to take a shower? Tian Sanwu crawled in the pool. The water was not deep. If they climbed, their heads could be above the water, but they still had to immerse their heads in the water and crawl under the water for a certain distance until they could no longer hold it in. Finally, they climbed up into the pool, panting.
Before they could catch their breath, there was already a team of temporary health workers on the shore, commanded by Shi Niao Ren himself. They were all big and round, and they came over like dragging chickens to a row of benches, which can accommodate one row of seats. Ten people, there is a shelf on top, which holds the long wooden shackles used by prisoners in the Yamen Prison. After closing, these ten people are like chickens and ducks hanging on the shelf in a slaughterhouse, unable to move. The person who climbed up was choked by the water and was put on the wooden shackles. He was so frightened that he was frightened out of his wits. What kind of king's law was this?
Because there were short-haired men present, the temporary workers were all quick and heavy-handed. Within a moment, all five rows of seats were shackled. It looked quite spectacular. Some younger children didn't know what would happen and started crying. At this time, the screams and cries of girls came from the other side of the wooden partition. Tian Sanwu couldn't help but think of Guo Sanniang - how is she?
"This is to kill the mighty stick -" a boy next to Tian Sanwu said tremblingly, water drops constantly dripping from his messy head.
"You want to hit him with a spanner?!" Tian Sanwu was shocked, thinking that he didn't have enough flesh on his butt, so he wouldn't break any bones or muscles after being hit with the board.
"If you hit the board, you won't be allowed to sit down. I'm just using an analogy. Alas, this boss's rules are so big - you'll be yoked when you get ashore."
The yoke number Tian Sanwu knew that there were always a few prisoners in front of the county yamen, carrying yoke boards and chains for public display. Looking at his current appearance, it is indeed similar. It's just that the shackles lasted for several days, and some prisoners died just like that. He became afraid:
"We didn't make any mistakes. Why does the boss want to shackle us?"
"That's why it's called a killing blow!" the boy said in a low voice, "No matter if you are wrong or right, I will beat you out of fear first, and you will have to be obedient in the future."
Tian Sanwu wondered what was going on with the women. The boss spent a lot of money buying girls in the market, so he probably wouldn't let them suffer too much, right? Just as I was thinking about it, there was a shrill cry and begging for mercy from the other side of the wall, which made everyone tremble - what are you doing?
The appearance on the other side of the wall is exactly the same as here, except that the person shaving their heads came first. The head-shaving masters are strong and healthy women selected from the villagers who migrated to Bairen City. After a short grooming training: they shave their heads. They practiced for a long time on local pumpkins, watermelons and laborers. Working in pairs, one person presses the head, and the other person first cuts off Da Cong's head with scissors, and then uses a sharp razor to shave off the whole head from the root, revealing the interesting green scalp. Every time a person is shaved, the razor must be thrown into a small earthen pot hanging under the neck. There are three razors soaked in high-quality liquor, and they are used in turn. How could the girls have ever seen such a scene? The shopkeeper had to spend money to buy them, wouldn't he want them to be nuns? Shocked and frightened, some people started crying in the chaos, and immediately responded to the call.
