The long-lost newspaper finally came, and what was thrown out was a super bombshell news. The Chinese decided to impose military control on the entire Yangtze River Economic Belt!
"The civil war in the Qing Dynasty left the people in dire straits, bandits and bandits everywhere... There were large-scale riots all over the south of the Yangtze River, among which the Chinese industries were the most severely damaged..."
"In order to protect the property safety of the Chinese people and protect the safety of hundreds of millions of people in Jiangnan, the Chinese have legally and reasonably stationed troops in Jiangnan in accordance with the concession treaty..."
"Please rest assured, the gentry and common people in the south of the Yangtze River... This military operation of the Chinese people has an absolutely peaceful purpose. We do not ask for sovereignty over an inch of land. We do not want to occupy the land of the Qing Dynasty..."
"Officials at all levels in the Qing Dynasty should be responsible for promoting peace and tranquility for the people and avoiding panic and riots... I repeat again, the Chinese army came to Jiangnan to maintain law and order, not to seize land..."
"The concession treaty signed by the head of state and Emperor Tongzhi specified in detail that when many Chinese industries were irreversibly damaged and the Qing Dynasty was unable to provide protection..."
"The Chinese military has the right to protect citizens' lives and property! All our actions are authorized by Emperor Tongzhi and are reasonable and legal..."
All the newsboys on the street and even a group of adults became the preachers of this military operation. The order for Chinese military control of Jiangnan was first issued in Shanghai!
The speed of the battleships and cruisers such as the Yanshan became slower and slower, and eventually even the propellers stopped rotating. At this time, small gunboats and some steam pilot boats rushed up.
One by one, the warships were pushed to the designated position. Of course, the Huangpu River did not have a dock for such warships. These warships simply anchored in the center of the Huangpu River.
The core of the battleship, the Zhiyuan, was berthed facing the old city of Shanghai. At this moment, all the officials from the Shanghai County Government came out and knelt down at the dock, all of them pale.
These officials of the Qing Dynasty were ashen-faced. They had no rights in Shanghai for a long time. In addition to managing ordinary people in the old city, the remaining Chinese territories were also foreign concessions. They did not even have the power to enforce the law. None.
Today, the Chinese have all brought up warships. With such a thick cannon, it is estimated that one shell will destroy all the Shanghai County offices. The low city walls of Shanghai cannot even be blocked by long hair. How many can this cannon can hold now? Fire artillery shells?
Let him go, let his father die and his mother marry. Anyway, the capital has already become a pot of porridge. Sooner or later, Jiangnan will belong to the Han people. It's such a big deal. It's important to save your own life!
The slogans were distributed free of charge in the streets and alleys, and they were posted up in the streets and alleys. People who could not read could still hear the preachers' personal explanations.
At this time, the foreign devil's face looked a little better. Many people gathered around the British Embassy and asked what to do.
All the officials of the British Embassy said nothing, and their cold faces answered everything.
"All embassies closed their doors...issued protest documents to the Chinese...This kind of unilateral military action is dangerous and we will never recognize it..."
"Oh God! Come quickly, the fleet of the mother country...defeat these Asian devils!"
"But it's okay now... We have to show our miserable situation to the world, and we must win the sympathy of all Europe!"
"Only if we are miserable enough, when our fleet fires cannons in the future, there will be no moral condemnation!"
"Today we are stationed here and are surrounded by heavy Chinese troops. This is the reason why we will go to war against the Chinese in the future!"
"Close the gates... pull up barbed wire... protect all expats..."
Foreign properties in various countries in the Shanghai Concession were mobilized urgently. The foreign devils and expatriates hid in their houses and trembled, as if the Chinese army was about to invade.
At this time, the warships on the Huangpu River began to send troops down one ship after another. The Chinese army and marines began to assemble at the pier in orderly steps. Each square formation was quickly amidst the cheers of the people. Assemble quickly and quickly head to various strategic locations.
This time Xiang Ying sent an additional 22,000 troops to Shanghai. Together with the previous 3,000 defenders, the Chinese land force in Shanghai reached 25,000. There were also warships on the Huangpu River as a deterrent!
Xiang Ying looked at the Manchu and Qing officials kneeling on the dock and sneered in his heart, "I don't want your sovereignty this time. This time I just want to show the people of Jiangnan the military power of our Chinese nation!"
"This is like boiling a frog in warm water, letting you gradually adapt to the days when there is a large Chinese army. You will become more and more accustomed to it, and you will become more and more comfortable..."
"When you have completely adapted to it and there is nothing wrong with the presence of the Chinese army, wouldn't it be easy to change the flag?"
"Tell Shanghai's industrial and commercial community... we Chinese are here to protect their property! The first step is to conduct a city-wide manhunt to hunt down all the remnants of the Japanese Six!"
Xiang Ying didn't even look at the Manchu officials, didn't even say a polite word, let alone met these foreign devils, he just sent a few diplomatic letters and went through the motions!
In the afternoon of that day, 25,000 Chinese troops had blocked all entrances and exits in Shanghai, followed by a city-wide manhunt led by the CIA!
There are screams of sirens everywhere, figures chasing people everywhere, shouts of killing, and gunshots one after another!
This was a large-scale manhunt that stunned the entire Shanghai population. On the surface, it was to arrest the thugs and saboteurs who burned down Chinese properties.
But in the evening everything changed. The Chinese simply launched a campaign to eradicate gangs and evil throughout Shanghai!
All gang members, all underworld elements, as long as they were not undercover organized by the CIA, all suffered a devastating blow.
There were loud gunshots in the dark night, and the rattling of heavy machine guns frightened countless people!
All the organized criminal gangs that bullied the people, collected protection fees, stole and robbed, pimps, human traffickers...all were wiped out!
No one should underestimate the CIA's investigative capabilities. They know all the dark corners of Shanghai!
In just one night, Shanghai seemed to have been completely wiped out. Twenty-five thousand soldiers, with the careful cooperation of thousands of CIA officers, were intimidated by warships on the Huangpu River.
Shanghai was wiped out overnight!
When they woke up the next day, the people opened their doors cautiously, and the neighbors counted their heads one by one to see who was unlucky enough to be arrested by the Chinese.
A scene that is unimaginable has appeared, but no one of the good people accidentally hurt anyone, and those who usually do a lot of evil, especially those who are notorious, today are all invisible!
"Ouch... go and see... Human traffickers are going to be shot by the Huangpu River today... The Chinese have said that human traffickers will definitely die..."
"It's so spectacular... a row of black people, more than 200 people have to be shot..."
"Really? Ouch... this is great... Mrs. Huang's grandson in the alley was abducted by traffickers the year before last... Today is considered revenge... Let's go and see it together!"
