Chapter 333 Spiritual Indians and Spiritual British (please subscribe, please vote)

If we want to talk about the difference in thinking between ordinary Chinese in Zhuge Weidao's timeline and ordinary Chinese in another timeline, in Zhuge Weidao's view, the first one is of course self-confidence!

In their view, the Ming Dynasty is naturally the number one in the world, the chosen country, and the city on the mountain! The United Kingdom and the United States are all barbarian countries, not worth mentioning!

And the second difference is that it seems a bit stupid! At least the people in the middle and lower classes are a bit stupid, and they don't know that the world is dangerous and people's hearts are not ancient.

And the country of Ming Dynasty seems to be a bit silly and sweet. It is already fighting a world war. It is still fantasizing about some elegant gentleman's war. It also thinks that Zhuge Weijiu signed with the foreigners at the Vienna Conference after the Napoleonic War.

The Vienna Prisoners of War Convention is taken seriously and implemented very seriously.

If you look at the current situation in the Malacca prisoner-of-war camp, you will know how the "silly white sweet" Ming Dynasty treated the enemy. First of all, the location of this prisoner-of-war camp is very humane, and it was chosen in a large barracks of the British and Indian troops.

——Many prisoners of war had been stationed there before and were familiar with the roads. Entering the prisoner-of-war camp was like going home.

Secondly, the food in the prisoner-of-war camps is very good. The New Ming Dynasty has been a country where few people have gone hungry since "Wuzhong King Juntian". Even now that the population has increased to 400 million (including various vassal states), the per capita cultivated land area is still

Beyond 10 acres, this is not the 10 acres per person under natural agriculture, but the 10 acres per person in industrialized countries!

The Malay Peninsula was very close to Siam and Annan, the food-rich vassal states under the Ming Dynasty, and also very close to Java where Chinese farms were everywhere. In addition, this battle was the first real war between the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty in more than a hundred years.

A national war in the sense of the word - Japan's war was not really a national war. At most, it was to help the Japanese court and shogunate quell the civil strife of the "traitors of Asia." Therefore, everyone from top to bottom attached great importance to it, and logistical support was excessive. Even prisoners of war were

They all took advantage of it!

Third, the prisoners of war in the Malacca prisoner of war camp can actually govern themselves! The captured British prisoners of war managed the prisoner of war camp by themselves with the help of a group of "Gao Yin". If it were not for the fact that watchtowers were erected at the four corners of the yard of the prisoner of war camp, and even

There are water-cooled machine guns, and there are Ming troops with live ammunition standing guard at the gate. From time to time, officers from the Ming army's military law and military intelligence system will enter the prisoner of war camp to ask questions. The prisoners of war living here almost forget that they have been captured, and they still

I thought I was still living in the peaceful pre-war years!

Today, Zhuge Weidao also changed into the uniform of a major officer of the Ming Army's Military Justice Department, carrying a briefcase, and together with his chief staff officer Guo Xiaobao, who also changed into the uniform of a major of the Army's Military Justice Department, took the certificate issued by Zheng Guoxian

With their documents and some "good stuff" prepared by the Nanyang Army Intelligence Office, they quickly walked into this prisoner-of-war camp with the smell of curry everywhere.

"Curry? Do you still feed curry to prisoners of war?" Zhuge Weidao asked an army major in charge of the prisoner of war camp who received him and Guo Xiaobao.

The major replied with a smile: "When the Japanese captured Malacca, they grabbed a lot of curry leaves. They didn't know how to eat them, so they threw them to us. And our people couldn't make them, so they gave them to the prisoner of war camps.

There are Indians inside.”

While talking, Zhuge Weidao, Guo Xiaobao and the major in charge of the prisoner-of-war camp had already walked into the exercise ground of the prisoner-of-war camp and found that there were some prisoners of war doing exercises inside. There were about two to three thousand people, composed of various Indians.

They formed a neat square formation, and under the commands of several white officers, they turned right, left, advanced, and retreated.

The major pointed to the leading British soldier wearing short-sleeved and shorts tropical military uniform. The British soldier of medium height said to Zhuge Weidao and Guo Xiaobao: "Major Ge, Major Guo, that man is Colonel Humphrey, he is a captured person."

The highest-ranking military officer.”

"Okay, that's him!" Zhuge Weidao nodded, "call him to the interrogation room."

"Okay." The major said to the two guards beside him, "Go and take Colonel Humphrey to Interrogation Room 1."

"Yes, sir!"

Zhuge Weidao and Guo Xiaobao did not watch Colonel Humphrey being "arrested" on the playground. Instead, they went to an interrogation room in the office building of the prisoner of war camp with Major So.

There are other programs.

Colonel Humphrey, who comes from London, comes from a military family, and participated in the Napoleonic Wars in his early years, was certainly not panicked at all. He was just a little panicked when he was caught by the Japanese during the breakout from Gotha Baruha. Those Japanese dwarfs were so fierce.

Very, when they were escorted to Kota Baruha, they would kill someone if they disagreed! But it would be better if he was in the hands of the Chinese. He was a high-level prisoner of war and could receive preferential treatment according to the Vienna Convention.

Moreover, he has served in the East India Company and the Indian Empire for many years, and has been engaged in mercenary management. He knows how to manage Indian prisoners, and can serve the Ming Empire, which is very valuable - Indian prisoners, they are all Indians, but

In fact, there are all kinds of people, and some of them cannot be considered human. There must be appropriate methods to treat different people or humanoid creatures. The Chinese who like "one size fits all" simply don't understand this. What's wrong with those Chinese

Everyone is accustomed to setting unified standards. If we don’t do this, everyone will think it’s wrong, so we can’t control India and Indians at all.

Under the leadership of the "Malacca Prisoner of War Camp Autonomous Committee" headed by Colonel Humphrey, everything in the prisoner of war camp was so orderly.

Because he felt that he was very useful, Humphrey thought that he could live quietly until the war was over, and then go back to India to work or return to the UK to enjoy his retirement life. As for where he would go, it would depend on how the war went.

Already?

Of course, in Humphrey's view, it is still possible for the British Empire to achieve final victory. Although the Ming Dynasty's navy and Japan's army did perform very strong! But this is a protracted and long war. Victory changes in tactics

There is no strategic mistake! The strategic mistake of the Ming Dynasty was that they always wanted to liberate India and took it for granted that the Indians would welcome the liberation.

"Colonel Humphrey?" A standard Oxford accent suddenly interrupted Humphrey's train of thought. Only then did he realize that he had been led into a large, empty room with a few Chinese characters written on the white walls.

, he only recognizes "frank and obedient" and "resisting and obedient".

"Yes, sir, I am Humphrey." Humphrey stood at attention. As he spoke, his sneaky little eyes turned and he immediately saw two people wearing green short-sleeved military uniforms sitting behind a long table.

A major of the Ming Dynasty Army wearing a big hat.

These two majors were, of course, Zhuge Weidao and Guo Xiaobao who were invited to help by Zheng Guoxian.

"Humphrey," Zhuge Weidao said as he took out a red-covered book from a briefcase with patterns of crowns, lions and unicorns on it. Then he opened the book and pointed to a photo inside.

Ask, "Is this your (photo)?"

Humphrey squinted his eyes and saw that the person in the photo was himself, "Yes, this is me."

"Write it down!" Zhuge Weidao ordered, and the recorder in the interrogation room immediately began to write. Zhuge Weidao said, "Write it down. The owner of this British National (Overseas) passport is Colonel Humphrey.

.”

"What?" Humphrey was stunned. "Major, what did you say? How did I become a British Overseas National?"

Zhuge Weidao pretended to pick up the fake passport and looked at it, "Yes, it's you. Are you a British Overseas National?"

Humphrey blurted out: "How can I be an overseas national? I am an Englishman, I am a real Englishman!"

"Really?" Zhuge Weidao smiled, and then said seriously, "Humphrey, I am military prosecutor Ge Qingyun. Every word you say now will be legally responsible! In view of your non-Indian status,

We will treat you as a mercenary and deprive you of your status and treatment as a prisoner of war in accordance with the Vienna Convention. Later, we will also prosecute you for war crimes! If convicted, you will face the maximum penalty of death!

Humphrey, let me ask you again, are you British or Indian? Is this British National (Overseas) passport yours? Please answer truthfully!"
