January 1833, Sydney.
As the carriage hurried through the road near Port Jackson, Admiral Hugh Gough couldn't help but sigh.
Sydney Bay, where Port Jackson is located, is one of the few excellent bays in the world. Not only does it have a small bay with a large water depth, but the bay also extends for ten to twenty kilometers inland, forming many small natural harbors. Moreover, there are dangers to defend around the harbor. The Cumberland Gorge and the Combe Plateau lie on the west and north sides of the harbor. The flat urban Sydney is surrounded by the sea, canyons, and highlands, making it absolutely easy to defend and difficult to attack.
It was precisely because of its unique geographical advantages that the British colonists took a liking to it. In 1788, a penal colony was established in Sydney Bay. In the same year, the British also named the place after Lord Sydney, the then British Home Secretary.
In the following years, the British who opened up a colony in Sydney Bay completed the genocide of the surrounding indigenous tribes! The genocide at Sydney Cove was just the beginning of a series of genocidal policies that followed!
From the time the British colonized Australia, they decided to turn Australia into a "purely white" continent... Neither people of color from Asia or other parts of Australia were allowed to immigrate, nor were black slaves needed. development, and also decided to exterminate the indigenous people on the Australian continent! In the following decades, Australia's Aboriginal population dropped rapidly from the original 750,000-1 million to less than 50,000.
Of course, this does not mean that the 950,000 fewer people have been slaughtered by the "White Australians". Disease and famine after being evicted from their homes claimed the lives of most of them, while the few Australian Aboriginals who were unwilling to wait quietly for destruction put up a desperate resistance. But the extremely backward Australian indigenous people are no match for the powerful white colonists. For them... it is incorrect to say that if you fall behind, you will be beaten. If you fall behind, you will be exterminated. This is their destiny.
If they are only beaten instead of exterminated, it means they are not backward enough...such as the Ottoman Turkish Empire, or India's Asan!
And now what makes Admiral Hugh Gough sigh is those Indian Asans who are a little backward, but not enough to become extinct!
That’s right, it’s Asan from India!
There are now Asans in Australia. There are about 100,000 fully armed and heroic Asans. There are about 20,000 Asans here in Sydney... They are affiliated to five Sikh cavalry battalions and twelve. 1 battalion of Indian Rifles and 3 battalions of Indian Field Artillery.
Not to mention those dark low-level Asans, they look like Australian aborigines and should be extinct!
The arrival of these Indian Asans certainly caused outrage in Australia - Asans were of color! Their arrival violated the "White Australia" principle of the Australian Dominion. Australia should be "purely white", and Indian Asans, even the best Brahmins, even those from Persia and Central Asia were mixed with Iran, Turks, and Mongolia. The skin of the conquerors of the Tianfang Sect is not white enough!
But the problem is that these Indian Asans who should be exterminated all got off the Indian Empire's warships with guns on their shoulders...it doesn't look like they will be exterminated easily!
Moreover, the white-skinned men in Australia now know that the heavenly soldiers of the Great Ming Dynasty are about to attack!
This is no joke, because many white-skinned people here in Australia know that the continent they occupy is probably the Southern Continent in the "Sixteen Kingdoms of the Ming Dynasty"!
Well, this country really exists, and there is historical data to prove it!
It is true that envoys from the Southern Continent Kingdom went to Nanjing to pay homage to the Ming Emperor Zhu Yihai... According to the official history of the Ming Dynasty, King Zhuge Wuzhong and King Zheng Chengzhong conquered Nanjing and opened the Ming Dynasty. At that time, envoys from the Southern Continent Kingdom congratulated him and proclaimed him a vassal, and also presented the map, special products, and auspicious animals of the "Southern Continent Kingdom"!
Among them, the map of the Southern Continent seems to show the northwest corner of Australia. This map was originally collected in the Forbidden City Museum in Nanjing!
The specialty they offer is said to be a black goose feather fan - black swan, which is only found in Australia in the world! This black goose feather fan was later given to King Zhuge Wuzhong by Zhu Yihai.
, is the favorite thing of King Wu Zhong. After King Wu Zhong died, he became a burial object and was buried together.
The auspicious beasts presented by the Southern Continent are also evidenced by a painting written by King Zhuge Wuzhong. This painting is still in the Forbidden City Museum in Nanjing. The auspicious beast in the painting is hugging Zhu Yihai who is smiling from ear to ear. It's a koala!
It is said that this koala later became Zhu Yihai's pet. He died of illness not long after he had it. Zhu Yihai was quite sad... He also asked skilled craftsmen to carve a stone statue of the koala, which is also in the Forbidden City in Nanjing. Exhibition inside the museum.
In addition, King Zhuge Wuzhong also painted portraits of envoys from the Southern Continent Kingdom. The envoy was dark, short, and wore a robe that looked like it was sewn with animal skins. He also held a black fur fan in his hand and a sword scabbard on his waist, which looked very strange. Javanese dagger...According to records, this southern continental country and the Javanese country have always had contacts. Starting from the southern continent, it takes 10 days and 10 nights of rowing to reach Java.
Those envoys from the Southern Continent rowed to Java and then took the Zheng family's armed merchant ships to the Ming Dynasty.
The purpose of their trip to the Ming Dynasty, apart from paying homage and giving gifts, was to seek protection... It is said that they were threatened by the Dutch colonists at that time!
For this reason, after King Zheng Chengzhong invaded the island, King Zhuge Wuzhong asked the released Dutch colonists on Taiwan to send formal letters of credence to the Great Parliament of the Netherlands. The letter of credence mentioned that the general would would provide protection to the Southern Continent and ask the Dutch not to invade.
And this certificate of credence is now stored in The Hague, Netherlands!
One by one, this is really solid evidence!
Of course, the British who conquered Australia would not admit the existence of the "Southern Continent"... They actually sent people to search for it, but Mao couldn't find it. There is no indigenous civilization in the northwest corner of Australia. signs!
To this end, the British also published research reports in European scientific and geographical magazines, providing very detailed "documentary evidence." As a result, Louis XIV, who was at war with the British at the time, immediately issued a statement, claiming that "the Southern Continent must have existed", but has now been exterminated by the evil British... This is genocide against humanity. !
In short, the extinction incident of the Australian Southern Continent once caused an uproar in Europe... However, because the Ming Dynasty kept silent at that time, the incident was eventually suppressed by the United Kingdom.
But it is just suppressed, because as time goes by, all kinds of evidence proving that the Southern Continent Kingdom does not exist have become vague and untrustworthy, while the evidence proving that she once existed has become more and more credible. .
So much so that most white people here in Australia believe that there once existed a backward indigenous country, the Southern Continent, in the northwest corner of Australia, which was later exterminated by the Anglo-Saxon colonists who knew best about extermination... Now the boss of the Southern Continent is coming tomorrow to find a place for his younger brother. How could white people here in Australia not be afraid? So the white people here in Sydney tolerated the lowly Indian Asan to set foot on the land of "White Australia", and barely gave them a chance to die defending White Australia.
What a grace this is!
But the problem is, those Indian Asans don’t know how to be grateful... During the Christmas holiday last year, a group of Indian Asans stationed at the Jackson Military Port sneaked into Sydney for fun and violated several An exiled white woman!
This is simply a crime worthy of death!
So the angry Sydney white militiamen flocked to the military camp next to the Jackson Military Port pier today and attacked the Indian Asans stationed there!
After receiving the news, Hugh Gough had to rush to find ways to calm the situation... The Ming Expeditionary Force was about to land, and now was not the time to drive the Indian Asans away from Australia!
