Chapter 334 Humphrey, do you love India?

(Please subscribe, please vote)

Colonel Humphrey was confused. Is there anything in the Vienna Convention that mercenaries cannot enjoy the treatment of prisoners of war? It seems there is, but it seems not. Hell, he has never read the Vienna Convention on Prisoners of War!

Moreover, how can being denied the treatment of a prisoner of war be equated with being sentenced to death? He must die for what he did?

"I, what did I do wrong? Why do you do this to me?"

Faced with the threat of the death penalty, Colonel Humphrey also panicked. His elegant and calm gentlemanly demeanor had disappeared without a trace.

Of course Zhuge Weidao would not answer Humphrey's question, but said to him in a majestic tone: "Colonel Humphrey, please answer truthfully, are you British or Indian?"

Hearing this kind of question, Humphrey was furious. Is it British or Indian? As a military inspector, wouldn't you look at it? Who do you think he is, blond hair and brown eyes?

Thinking of this, he spoke curry-flavored English: "Sir, I am an Indian. Although I have 100% English ancestry, I have become an Indian national, so I am an authentic Indian."

"That's right." Zhuge Weidao looked at Humphrey, "How do you prove that you are Indian?"

"How to prove it?" Humphrey didn't know what to say for a while.

He actually did not lie. After Emperor William "legally usurped the throne", he granted citizenship to every white man who followed him. Of course, Humphrey was also a citizen of the United Kingdom, not a British Overseas National. And Humphrey

Lai doesn’t remember having a British National (Overseas) passport. There are only two types of British nationals: home nationals and dependent nationals. There are no overseas nationals at all!

When Humphrey was surrounded, Guo Xiaobao, who was sitting next to Zhuge Weidao, spoke kindly: "Colonel Humphrey, I am Major Guo Xiaobao, the attorney prepared for you by the Malayan War Criminals Tribunal. What's wrong with you?

If you understand anything, you can ask me."

And lawyer Humphrey became more and more upset the more he heard this!

Although he still doesn’t know what happened? But one thing is for sure, he can’t ignore it!

"Lawyer Guo," Humphrey asked, "can you tell me what happened?"

Guo Xiaobao did not answer, but looked back at Zhuge Weidao. Zhuge Weidao took out a black and white photo from his briefcase and handed it to Guo Xiaobao. Guo Xiaobao took the photo, stood up, walked to Humphrey, and handed the photo to him

Humphrey took the photo and looked at the "lying corpses" all over the place! They were all wearing Han Chinese clothes.

"This was taken near Kota Baharu!" Guo Xiaobao said seriously, "A total of 119 people were killed. The dead were all civilians, expatriates from the Ming Dynasty, and the bullets used to kill them were New Bess rifles.

Bullets!

The Army Military Prosecutor's Office has begun investigating this matter. And you are highly suspected! Because you are the supreme commander of the Gotabaharu garrison, even if you did not personally order this matter, it must have been done by your subordinates.

.

If you are not an Indian, you lose your status as a prisoner of war and are no longer protected by the Vienna Convention, then."

Humphrey now realized the seriousness of the problem!

This must have been done by his defeated troops! Otherwise, who else could it be? The Japanese who attacked Gotabharu? They are the sons of the Ming Dynasty, how dare they kill the Ming Dynasty’s expatriates?

"I am Indian! I really am Indian!" Humphrey really wants to be an Indian now.

Because he is not an Indian, he is not protected by that "convention", so the Ming Dynasty's Military Procuratorate can punish him however they want?

"But you just said that you are a real British!" Zhuge Weidao said, "Since the Ming Dynasty and Britain are not yet at war, as a British national, you are not a legal belligerent, but a mercenary. Our Military Procuratorate can take

Use all means to interrogate the captured mercenaries!"

This is going to cost lives! Humphrey has already felt that this man who calls himself "Ge Qingyun" is very dangerous. There is a kind of hatred in his eyes when he looks at him. Could it be that one of his relatives was killed in Gotabaharu?

"I am really Indian!" Humphrey's English became more curry-flavored. "Although I am an Anglo-Saxon from England, I have Indian nationality!"

"How do you prove that you have Indian nationality?" Zhuge Weidao said seriously, "Humphrey, it's not that I don't believe you, but our Ming Dynasty's judiciary is based on evidence. Let me ask you, do you love India?"

Love India?

Humphrey thought to himself: "Do you, a Ming major, think India is as worthy of love as your Ming Dynasty? Who else would love her except Emperor William?"

Thinking of this, Humphrey shook his head and said: "No, I don't love India! Although I am an Indian, I don't love India at all."

"Oh?" Zhuge Weidao laughed, "Why?"

Humphrey said: "Because in India, most people with my status do not love India and are ashamed of their Indian identity."

"Why is this?" Guo Xiaobao couldn't understand. As a citizen of the new Ming Dynasty, in his eyes, there is no difference between India and the Western powers - they are both almost bad! So he cannot understand a person who was trained by the British colonists.

How the Indian elite viewed the civilization and progress of the British Empire.

"Because they think India is rotten, poor and backward," Zhuge Weidao could understand the thoughts of those "high-ranking Indians", "and Britain is slightly better than India!"

Guo Xiaobao looked disdainful, "It's not much better. Britain is a small country and has always been a remote and remote country. It just took advantage of the frequent wars in Europe to suck the blood of Europe, and then conquered India and exploited it. It only developed after India was liberated and got rid of Britain.

Exploiting China, abolishing the caste system, establishing land equalization, establishing compulsory education, and developing industries, we will be able to catch up with Britain within a few decades."

After listening to Guo Xiaobao's words, Zhuge Weidao couldn't help but frown again - in addition to being confident and silly, the Chinese in this timeline also have a special sense of salvation, thinking that Ming Dynasty is the savior, and always want to destroy Ming Dynasty's "

The combination of "equality", "equal land" and "emphasis on education" is exported to the world! It is quite similar to the developed United States in some aspects!

"Humphrey," Zhuge Weidao looked at Humphrey, "You are an Indian, so you must know the situation in India very well. Tell me, is it possible for what Lawyer Guo said to be realized in India? To be honest. This is

It’s about your fate!”

Of course Zhuge Weidao did not come to find the mastermind of the Kota Baharu Massacre, because there was no such massacre at all. His real purpose in coming to the Malacca Prisoner of War Camp was to find the Indian traitor!

If you want to seize a traitor, of course you must first find a traitor who is willing to cooperate - the traitors are all under the control of the traitor. As long as you get one traitor, there will be hundreds of traitors below, which will save trouble.

?

However, the current Ming Dynasty conquers people with virtue and governs the country and the army according to the law. It cannot hang up and beat all the British officers in the Malacca prisoner-of-war camp, so Zhuge Weidao can only "use tricks" to scare the British officers in the prisoner-of-war camp.

Already.

Humphrey was just the first one to be frightened. If he didn't agree, Zhuge Weidao would have no choice but to replace him. Although Zhuge Weidao was a member of the core group of the number one family in the Ming Dynasty, a rear admiral, and

The Admiral of Aviation Warfare, the Admiral of Naval Aviation. It can be said that he has a high position! But he could not blatantly slaughter a foreign prisoner of war who had become a prisoner. Not only was he unable to do it, but the Chief of Staff of the Nanyang Army, Major General Zheng Guoxian, was also unable to do so. Although the Malacca Prisoner of War Camp

All the commanders are his subordinates.

"Impossible, India's national conditions are completely different from those of the Ming Dynasty. She, oh, it should be that what they need is not liberation, but conquest." Humphrey seemed to have realized something at this time, but he remained calm and began to obey.

He taught Guo Xiaobao a lesson with the intention of Zhuge being the Taoist.
