During each rotation, a company of troops would be stationed at the sugar factory for half a month.
Naturally, Huang Bohan would not neglect these security guards. He not only opened up a space in the sugar factory to build a fully equipped station, but also hired chefs, gardeners, and laundry workers to serve the soldiers stationed in the sugar factory.
Huang Bohan is responsible for the current salaries of these security guards.
On average, each soldier can get a salary of 60 yuan a month. This salary is of course lower than that in France, but considering that the level of danger is not that high, it is still acceptable.
In addition to salary, Huang Bohan is also responsible for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of these soldiers, which adds up to about 10 yuan a month.
The same treatment standard also applies to the troops sent by Zhang Tianshou to take charge of security work in the plantations and mines of Huang Jin Shengmao and others.
There are probably more than 60 such mines and plantations, and each requires different troop strength. Large ones such as the sugar factory where Gu Xingbang is located, originally had two companies of 300 people, but now the trained manpower is insufficient.
150 people were sent over. Smaller ones, such as Huang Bohan's bank in Surabaya, only require about one squad of troops to be stationed.
But everything has a cumulative process. In total, the more than 60 places where guards need to be stationed will probably need more than 4,000 people.
In other words, Huang Bohan and others helped Qin Zhiyuan raise more than 4,000 soldiers.
These more than 60 points do not include Catholic churches. If Catholic churches also need garrison troops, the number of people needed would be much larger.
Half a year ago, we went to Borneo together. When you started building Penglai Island, I also started building a church in Surabaya. Francis chattered, sitting in the office and setting up a dragon gate formation with Gu Xingbang.
Gu Xingbang had already completed his patrol in the morning and completed one-third of his day's tasks. It was useful to have someone to chat with this time.
Out of the fact that he had been on the same boat for two months, Gu Xingbang braced himself to listen to Francis' complaints, adding one or two exclamations from time to time to make Francis have more to say.
Three months have passed since the church was built. Guess I have developed several believers. Francis suddenly raised a question.
several
Gee, this range is not very large.
Well, Gu Xingbang gave an answer that made him feel embarrassed.
As a priest, Francis actually cursed, which shows how much resentment this incident brought to him: I prepared carefully for a week for the Sunday event the day before yesterday, and just for this day, I prepared
A large amount of clothes and food were prepared to be distributed to believers after Sunday activities, but only one damn person came. My God, there are 16 people in the choir. Is this a private venue?
Francis was so excited that he seemed about to collapse. He slapped the coffee table beside him and roared, accidentally knocking over the tea cup on the coffee table. The light green tea splashed everywhere, soaking Francis' white robe and the cross on his chest.
, Francis still didn’t realize it and was still furious.
Father, Father, calm down, calm down. Gu Xingbang stood up, helped Francis clean up the tea leaves on his body, and kept persuading him.
Gu, I can't calm down. I just found out yesterday that it was that damn Yusino who prevented my children from attending Sunday activities, and he also banned people here from believing in the Lord, claiming that all believers who believe in the Lord
They all have to apologize to their religion. This is simply unbearable. Gu, I want you to help me kill him, and I will pay any price for it. Francis kept talking, and what he said was very unbecoming of a priest.
In fact, it is normal. Religious wars have always been very cruel. Since the Crusades a thousand years ago, religion has been accompanied by killing and bloodshed. As the ruler of Europe for thousands of years, the Catholic Church has committed countless crimes in this regard.
, because it was once above the secular imperial power, the Catholic Church was more accustomed to using violent means to solve problems.
Gu Xingbang was a little hesitant about whether there would be any trouble if he killed him.
To be honest, Gu Xingbang didn't care about Yu Xinuo's life. For Gu Xingbang, as long as he was not Chinese or Chinese, it didn't matter whether he lived or died.
Since the Spanish invaded Borneo in the 15th century, the Chinese have suffered too many hardships. Almost every time, whether the Spanish or the Dutch made a decision and acted as accomplices, it was always these indigenous people who took action.
Penglai Pavilion holds some commemorative activities almost every week to commemorate those Chinese who lost their lives in previous anti-Chinese movements. This is not only a formality, but also hopes that all soldiers will remember this long-lasting war.
Hundreds of years of hatred, I hope those soldiers will not be soft when facing the aborigines and avenge the Chinese predecessors.
It seems that there is no difference between Chinese people and those anti-Chinese mobs.
In fact, there is no difference. Vendettas between ethnic groups are always full of indifference and blood. If you don’t want your hands to be stained with blood, you must either leave the land left to you by your ancestors and give up your living space to others, or you can
He can only be killed by prodding his neck.
What Qin Zhiyuan hopes more is that the Chinese can take up knives and guns to fight.
No, you are doing this to spread the glory of the Lord, and the Lord will forgive you. Francis started to lie.
I feel that directly annihilating Usino from above won't do much. We should think of other ways. Does his Sun God Cult have any prohibitions? Gu Xingbang tried to discredit Usino through other means.
There seems to be no prohibition. They can marry and have children, and there is no limit on the number. They can drink alcohol and do not abstain from eating meat. It seems that Francis does not know much about this aboriginal religion, so he directly applies the prohibitions of other sects.
I still don’t believe that there is no loophole to take advantage of. Will Yusino embezzle the church property and let him marry a wife? He will not let him marry a man. They don’t have any relatively sacred places, such as the main hall of the church. If it is desecrated,
In these places, it would be difficult for Yusino and his followers to explain. Gu Xingbang was so imaginative that Francis even looked at Gu Xingbang a little strangely.
In fact, the Chinese have never been a nation that is self-contained or a nation that abides by old rules. Even farmers have their own wisdom and cunning.
Why go to so much trouble to kill Yusino directly, demolish his church, and force the natives here to convert to God, otherwise all the heretics will be burned to death? Isn't this okay? Francis wants to simplify things.
Compared to the Chinese, foreign devils who only know how to fight and kill are not cute at all.
Do you think that's okay? If you kill one Yushino, maybe there will be another Yudonno. If you burn a church, they can build a second one. This will not help you win people's hearts and may even be counterproductive. Father, if you really
If you want to establish a positive Catholicism, then don’t focus on fighting and killing, and think of other ways. I believe you, you will find a way. Gu Xingbang’s sincere advice.
Although Gu Xingbang was persuading, Francis could feel the determination in Gu Xingbang's words.
When Gu Xingbang finished speaking, Francis felt that this trip was going to be in vain, so he stood up and prepared to leave.
I will send a small team to follow you back to the church. You have this idea, and maybe Yuhino also has the same idea. You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must be on guard against others. After Gu Xingbang finished speaking, he sent a squad to follow Yuhino back to Surabaya.
Catholic Church.
There was no one in this class, and that night there was a conflict between Francis and Uchino. The cause of the conflict was a girl.
The origin of the story is ridiculous.
There is a rule in the Ushino sect that in any family that believes in the Ushino sect, the girl in the family must also marry a man of the same faith, otherwise the girl will be stoned to death.
A family in Surabaya who believes in the Ushino sect wants to marry a girl to one of three brothers. That is to say, after the girl gets married, she will become the common wife of the three brothers.
This was unacceptable to the girl. She didn't want to marry the three brothers, and she didn't want to be stoned to death, so she ran to Francis' church to seek refuge.
It's God's will
Francis immediately adopted the girl with great fanfare, promising that God would bless her.
Francis is not sure whether God will bless this girl, but Gu Xingbang will.
After receiving the news, Gu Xingbang led a platoon to the church in Surabaya city.
Outside the church, Yuhino and his crowd gathered around him.
Among the people Yuhino brought, there were the girl's natal family and husband's family, as well as believers who had nothing to do with the matter, and most of them were just idle men.
This is also a major feature of Borneo. People are very enthusiastic about watching the excitement. As long as there is excitement to watch, they are not afraid even if they are holding a black hole with a gun. Of course, this kind of spectatorship may turn into at any time,
Then there would be a riot and looting.
Compared with labor, the local aborigines of Borneo are better at this.
In front of the church door, Francis, whose face was full of justice, stopped in front of Yusino. Looking at that figure, he looked extraordinarily righteous and awe-inspiring, extraordinarily tall and solemn, and full of desolation and determination even though thousands of people had gone there.
Francis is flanked by two soldiers armed with shotguns. The task of these two men is not to stop these aboriginal people, but if something happens, they will set up Francis and withdraw to the Holy See first. The task of blocking the aboriginal people is left to the two Lewis guns on both sides of the church door.
Light machine gun.
When Gu Xingbang arrived, the situation was already a bit out of control.
Yuhino did not get the results he wanted and had already retreated among the aboriginal people. The aboriginal people were clamoring and preparing to rush to the church.
The Chinese in Borneo have always been famous for their submissiveness. These aborigines have participated in many times of violence against Chinese families. They really don't have much fear of the Chinese, even when facing Chinese with guns.
Isn't it true that the law does not hold everyone accountable?
These aboriginals were not stupid. Even if they were charged up with guns blazing, they still felt terrified. Therefore, they shouted loudly and were not very fast on their feet. As soon as something went wrong, they could turn around and run away immediately.
Two security guards from the Umbrella Company took turns shouting stop and retreat in Dutch and Javanese, protecting Francis as he retreated.
Just when Francis was a little embarrassed and had just climbed the ramp in front of the church, someone among the aborigines suddenly shouted.
It was like another fire was added to the bottom of the pot that was about to boil. The clamor suddenly amplified infinitely. Countless indigenous people with fanatical faces and red eyes let out one after another tsunami-like shouts and surged toward the door of the church.
And go.
Tom
Some soldiers fired shots, and colleagues shouted warnings in Dasheng.
It had no effect. The fanatical crowd seemed to be stimulated by the gunfire, and the commotion became more serious.
