Although the New Baku Oilfield has been developed for more than two years, only a small part has actually been developed and utilized. Compared to the largest oil field in Africa, the developed area currently accounts for less than 1% of the total area.
one.
Among the more than 30 oil wells that have started working, the No. 10 oil well is relatively large-scale, with a daily output of about 150 million barrels, ranking among the top oil fields in the entire New Baku region.
Because of this, Oil Well No. 10, as one of the most productive oil wells, has always been a key concern of United Oil.
In fact, in key oil wells like Oil Well No. 10, indigenous Algerians have no chance to work here.
However, oilfield operation is a very complicated matter, and various accidents often occur during the operation. At this time, someone needs to help.
Because of their abilities, Algerian indigenous people are mostly engaged in manual labor in the New Baku area. So when the oil wells need to be repaired, it is natural that a construction team composed of Algerian indigenous people will come to work.
So trouble arises.
The reason is still prayer.
Just when the Chinese engineer in charge of the No. 10 oil well was directing emergency operations, it was time to pray every two hours. So all the Algerian natives took out the small blankets they carried with them and began to pray. All the work in progress was thrown away.
Next, this really made the two Chinese engineers Wang Ruizhi and Zhao Tianjiao who were directing at the scene angry and angry, and the conflict broke out.
For the native Algerians, the world is big and the prophet is the biggest.
For Wang Ruizhi and Zhao Tianjiao, the world is huge, the output is the largest, and United Petroleum has the greatest interests.
This is an irreconcilable contradiction.
Of course, Wang Ruizhi and Zhao Tianjiao could not let these Algerian natives work as foreign workers, so they ordered the foreign legion team responsible for security work at the No. 10 oil well to intervene.
The Algerian natives were resolute. They would rather have their wages deducted than blaspheme the prophet by delaying prayers.
Well, there is a rule in New Baku that wages will be deducted for missed work, but on the Algerian indigenous side, due to Henry Swinburne's insistence, it has never been implemented seriously. Therefore, this rule has now become a mere formality, and it is not effective at all.
There is no deterrent.
Since language cannot be reconciled, it can only be resolved by force.
Moreover, it was the Algerian natives who made the first move. A young Algerian took advantage of Wang Ruizhi's unpreparedness and stabbed Wang Ruizhi in the stomach with the short knife he carried. Although the young man was immediately shot to death by security personnel, in the ensuing chaos, Zhao Tianjiao also
He was seriously injured and died on the spot.
If someone dies, and the person who dies is a Chinese engineer, then the matter will be very serious.
When Gu Xingbang and Ma Gaojie arrived at the No. 10 oil well, the scene was already in chaos.
Six Algerian natives were shot dead on the spot, and nearly forty Algerian natives were subdued. Four French workers and three Chinese workers were injured. The body of Chinese engineer Zhao Tianjiao was placed aside, wrapped in white cloth.
What the hell is going on here, Stuart, what the hell are you doing? Gu Xingbang just jumped out of the car and yelled at the team leader in charge of security.
I'm sorry, Mr. Colonel. Stuart, the German squad leader of the Foreign Legion in charge of security, felt extremely regretful.
Don't say sorry, I have to really think about why this is happening, Gu Xingbang asked.
Yes, Mr. Colonel, originally everything was normal. At about ten o'clock, something went wrong with the oil well. This was originally a small problem and only needed simple repairs to return to normal. However, our construction team was unable to catch up at the No. 18 oil well at the same time.
came back, so they asked the Algerian construction team to come over to help. Halfway through the repairs, the prayer time for these people came again, so they started praying, but the repair work was not completed yet, so the king ordered them to continue working, and then
There was a conflict. Stuart didn't hide it and was as detailed as possible.
Gu Xingbang couldn't believe it.
Yes, that's it. Stuart is honest.
Well, Gu Xingbang wants to kill all the Algerian natives here.
There are about 15,000 Chinese in the entire New Baku area. Among these Chinese, there are about 8,000 workers. The rest are workers' family members, and they are basically engaged in oil field-related work.
Among these 15,000 Chinese, there are only a hundred technicians and only a dozen or so who can be called engineers. It can be said that each of them is a treasure of United Petroleum and a key figure in Qin Zhiyuan's life.
Protected objects.
But in this seemingly inconspicuous conflict, a Chinese engineer actually lost his life. This result was really unacceptable to Gu Xingbang.
What's more, the one who died was Zhao Tianjiao.
There are only a dozen Chinese engineers in the New Baku area, and Gu Xingbang must know them all.
Zhao Tianjiao is just 27 years old this year. He just got married last year to a Chinese woman from Lanfang. Just last month, Zhao Tianjiao just gave birth to a son. Now the child is not yet one month old, but Zhao Tianjiao has given up and left. This makes
How can the orphans and widowers left behind by Zhao Tianjiao survive?
In fact, United Oil will definitely not leave Zhao Tianjiao's widow and orphan alone, but even if they are rich in wealth and wealth, they cannot be as considerate as the person next to them, nor can they replace the husband who knows how to care for them.
Gu Xingbang could imagine how sad and painful the life of the mother and son would be in the future.
Just an hour ago, Zhao Tianjiao was still alive and kicking, with a bright future ahead of her and the expectations of her family.
But just an hour later, Zhao Tianjiao was wrapped in white cloth and placed under the derrick that was leaking crude oil and exuding a pungent smell. This was really unacceptable.
Thinking of this, Gu Xingbang's eyes turned blood red unconsciously.
Put all these people in jail and interrogate them thoroughly. I want to know who is causing trouble among them. I want to know who is instigating them. I want to know why these guys are so radical. Do you understand? Gu Xingbang stared at Stuart, a
Word by word is popping out, and I am very determined to get to the bottom of it.
Yes, Mr. Colonel, understand Stuart's loud voice.
When something like this happens, Stuart is absolutely responsible and must be held responsible. Stuart is a German and can serve in the Foreign Legion. Thanks to the good relationship between Germany and Lanfang, Stuart feels sorry for this from the bottom of his heart.
The feelings of the Chinese are cordial, and Stuart himself did not want to see such a thing happen. Regardless of emotion or reason, Stuart would not let these natives go.
In fact, if he had not taken into account the need to find out the truth, Stuart would have just ordered all the natives to be executed, and not a single one would be left alive.
Executing them all sounds a bit cruel, but in the 1930s, this was not a rare thing. The colonial army was often so cruel when dealing with colonial affairs, and even if it was told, people would become accustomed to it.
This is an era in which there are basically no human rights, or in other words, this is an era in which lower ethnic groups have no human rights.
No, no, no, Gu, you can't do this. If you want to find out about this matter, it is the responsibility of the New Baku Police Department and has nothing to do with the Foreign Legion. In this matter, Gu, you need to know that you and your people
There is already a tendency, so you should avoid it and give up the right to trial. Henry expressed opposition to Gu Xingbang's arrangement.
Go ahead and avoid it. Now our people are dead and our engineers are dead. You have to figure out how many engineers we have in total. Henry, I must remind you, regardless of whether Algeria is a province of France or not, if I confirm
Someone has played a role in fueling the flames. Henry, I can tell you right now, these people will definitely not be the only ones to die. More people will pay the price for this, and Gu Xingbang will definitely be in a strong mood.
You are abusing the death penalty. If you do that, you have violated the constitution and I will definitely sue you. Being rebuked by Gu Xingbang in person, Henry couldn't save his face, so Henry immediately became violent.
Whatever you want, if the Commander recruits me to go back to Lanfang tomorrow, I will go back immediately. If you think I am willing to stay in this ungrateful place, since you are breaking up with me, then Gu Xingbang has no patience at all.
You, you are simply lawless, do you still have the slightest sense of law? Do you still have the duty of a soldier? When he encountered the unscrupulous Gu Xingbang, Henry could only accuse him from a moral standpoint.
Don't mention your responsibilities to me. My duty is to ensure the normal operation of the New Baku Oilfield and to protect the safety of oil field workers from infringement. As a result, it ended up like this because of you, a son of a bitch.
, are you satisfied now? I really want to see, if your behavior affects France's income, how do you want to report to your boss, so now, you worry about yourself first. After Gu Xingbang said that, he turned around and left.
I have no interest in talking nonsense with Henry.
Stop, come back. Henry jumped on his feet and shouted, trying to catch up with Gu Xingbang to continue his argument, but was stopped by the guards standing by.
Stuart has already started working here.
Since the arrival of the commandos, there have been more than 300 Foreign Legion soldiers on site, and the situation has been completely controlled.
The Algerian natives who had been controlled just now looked miserable. Now they no longer persisted in praying, and their illusory faith had long since disappeared without a trace. They are now waiting for the judgment of their fate.
It was obvious that these Foreign Legion soldiers would not let them go easily.
Get up, get up quickly. A soldier from the Foreign Legion came over and tried to get the Algerian natives who were kneeling on the ground waiting to be surrendered to their car and then send them back to the military camp for interrogation.
Of course, this attitude was not very good. An Algerian native kneeling on the ground only hesitated for a moment and was immediately hit by a gun butt on his neck.
The soldier was holding a 98a weighing four kilograms. When he hit it with such condescending force, the Algerian native was immediately knocked upside down.
The soldier refused to let go. He raised his feet in suede shoes and kicked the boy. While kicking him, he was still yelling: "Weren't you really smart just now? Now stand up for me, stand up!"
Scolding and kicking at the same time, it seemed really enjoyable.
But in the eyes of these Algerian natives, they are not so cute.
Suddenly, an Algerian native who was far away from here suddenly got up and ran. His speed was unprecedentedly fast, countless times faster than their movements when praying.
Damn it, you dare to run and stop for me
Stop now
If you don't stop, we'll shoot
Several voices warned at the same time, some started to chase, and some wanted to start the car.
Why is it so troublesome? Shoot me. Are you holding a fire stick? If you dare to run away, shoot Gu Xingbang decisively on the spot.
