"No needless sacrifices, no more bloodshed, the war is over..." Xiao Hexin overpowered the old governor's order with a louder voice.
When the morale of the entire French army was completely in chaos, Xiao Hexin and the French translators he brought suppressed the old governor's order.
"No one will hurt you. As long as you don't take the initiative to attack, the Chinese will not shoot at you with bullets..."
"Paris has ceased war with the Chinese. If you are so impulsive now, you will end up with sin instead of credit! You must consider it carefully..."
"Why are you still working so hard? You don't even know where your pension is. Even the Paris Military Department doesn't know who you are or what your names are..."
"They don't even know that Annan still has five thousand lone troops at this moment..."
"It's just some hydrological information. Even if you don't give it to me, the Chinese will be able to investigate it on their own within a year or two... Why bother to bleed for a few numbers..."
"Please calm down, calm down... What you have to do now is to return home safely, go home! Go see your relatives, go see your wives and children, go to those politicians to protest and fight for your interests!"
"Go back to the country! Get the pension you deserve..."
No matter how the old baron struggled ups and downs in the crowd, no one would carry out his orders. The five thousand French army was now demoralized and all the middle and lower-level officers were silent.
When the soldiers looked at the officers beside them, they all grimaced and said nothing. This showed that everything the Chinese said was true. Who would sacrifice their lives if it were true?
Calm, silent...these French soldiers watched helplessly as the fighting in the west building gradually calmed down, and soon several Chinese special operations team members leaned out from the second floor window.
Reach out and give a success gesture!
Done! The big stone in Xiao He's confidence suddenly relaxed. "Hahaha... Dear Mr. Governor, it should be possible to carry out the flag changing ceremony now..."
"What? You didn't prepare any food or drinks for the banquet? Hahaha... It doesn't matter, we have the most delicious Chinese food, and I guarantee that your mouth will be filled with oil!"
The last bit of profit the French had in the Annan colony was those materials, including cultivated land, roads, mountains and forests, hills, lakes, swamps, household registrations, rivers, bays... Sometimes the most important components of a country are reflected in every tiny detail. on top of data.
How important are these dumb drawings and data? Look at what happened after Liu Bang invaded Xianyang in history. Xiao He immediately took over all the files of the Prime Minister's Palace and the Yushi Palace of Qin, and moved away all the maps, population, household registration and other information in the world. .
With these basic data, you will have a fundamental basis for governing the country. If not, everything will start from a blank sheet of paper.
Needless to say, it’s a waste of money. The key is a waste of time and even people’s lives!
A special force raid did not kill any French soldiers, but only wounded two civilian officials who resisted. The eleven iron file boxes became Xiao Hexin's trophies.
The old baron shed tears of distress. He burst into tears watching the tricolor flag gradually fall!
"Ten years of hard work have been snatched away by robbers. How can I have the nerve to see His Majesty!"
Xiao Hexin was advising on the side, "Oh, don't cry now... Napoleon III even lost his own empire, but he still has the dignity to live. He eats three meals a day no less than you!"
"Wipe your tears and stop crying...I'll give you one and a half months. Is it enough for you to withdraw your troops?"
"I'm not telling you, you should go back and check your land, winery... and see if your property has been damaged!"
"This war is chaotic enough. May God bless you and hope your relatives will not be harmed..."
"Don't look at me. Our Chinese army never commits any crime and will not harm the common people... But I can't say what your army and its defeated troops are like!"
"Besides, after the war is over, there will definitely be a lot of unowned land and property, and the government will definitely have to re-determine the property rights... Everyone, go back and quickly protect your property!"
At a banquet, these French people ate like a funeral, and everyone was encouraged by Xiao Hexin to return home!
The scene of the Chinese bullying the French caught the eyes of the locals in Annan. Some people may have had some thoughts before, but after today, all the evil hands that were ready to move were withdrawn.
Not only that, the Ruan dynasty in the north also sent envoys to contact Xiao Hexin, and even shamelessly thanked the Chinese for helping the Ruan dynasty take back their homeland.
Xiao Hexin glared and kicked the envoy out. "What are you talking about? Help you take back your homeland? Dream on! This is a French colony, and now it has become the territory of the Chinese!"
"There are two ways for you. One is to accept the integration of the Chinese and integrate into our Chinese like the ancient Ryukyu country!"
"The second way is to stay in the north honestly and stay there as long as you can. It depends on your fate!"
After blasting away the envoys of the Nguyen royal family, a continuous increase in troops began in Saigon!
Three thousand, five thousand, nine thousand... the number of garrison troops has been increased to 12,000, and the number of warships has also increased to 30, two-thirds of which are small warships that can sail freely on the Mekong River.
The core of Chinese control over Annan is in Saigon. After the 12,000 garrison was able to stabilize the situation in the Mekong Delta, Da Nang and Cam Ranh Bay in the north were also invaded by the Chinese navy.
When the French withdrew, the northern Nguyen Dynasty sent a small force to take over the defense. However, under the attack of 6,000 marines, these medieval troops were unable to fight back.
The two important naval bases of Da Nang Bay and Cam Ranh Bay have been completely controlled, but the large-scale resistance that Xiao Hexin expected before has never appeared.
With the warm and humid night wind blowing in Saigon, Siu Ho-sin felt very comfortable drinking the beer brewed locally with the technology brought by the French.
"It's exactly what the head of state said. This world has to fight with the strong. Sometimes if you fight the strong once, you will make millions of weak surrender!"
"After the Franco-Prussian War ended, everything suddenly changed. Things that I had never dared to think about before suddenly happened!"
"The Dutch no longer dare to appeal for their rights in Kalimantan. Spain also sold Luzon to the Chinese, and now France has ceded the entire Annan..."
"How dare you think about it in the past? When the Chinese were trapped in the Ryukyu Islands and bullied by the French expeditionary fleet, and when they were bombarded by the Tsarist Russian Navy, how could they have imagined that the territory would be like this today?"
"And the Western Region... With so much compensation, King Shangtai should be able to go smoothly! Hahaha... The huge Western Region actually thought of buying it with money?"
"Whether it succeeds or not, whether you make money or lose money in the end, it's fun anyway, it's so enjoyable... let the blood of the French people fatten up the flesh of my Chinese people!"
"Ever since I, a Chinese, learned to bully others, my days have become happier and happier!"
"Here comes someone! Has the latest information been sent? Where is Emperor Tongzhi..."
"Report to the General that Emperor Tongzhi of the Qing Dynasty has arrived in Mawei... and is inspecting the Mawei Shipyard!"
"Ah? I just arrived in Fujian! Is this a sea-going ship? Why is it slower than an ox cart..."
