341 Deterrence
Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, Li Mu doesn't want to verify that whether the people of the Anglican Church can die or not, no matter who they die in their hands, it is troublesome.
After asking for Fern Jerome's home address, Li Mu immediately asked Yan Shun to send someone to pick him up, and in the next period of time, only the beach camp could ensure the safety of these British people.
In fact, Chinese families are also safe, there are Chinese gathering areas in Hawaii, and Chu Wushuang is responsible for safety work, so no one should dare to go to the Chinese gathering area to find trouble.
Watching Yan Shun lead a group of people to rush away, Fern Jerome's eyes were even more complicated when he looked at Li Mu.
Yan Shun brought more than 20 people, each of them was fully armed, the kind with spears and sprints, and these people were hiding in the outer wooden houses, seeing this situation, if Fern Jerome didn't understand what Li Mudu had done, then Fern Jerome would be too dull.
Li Mu didn't explain why there were so many armed people in the camp, looking at Fern Jerome with an angry face, Li Mu looked calm: "If there are other people who need help, you'd better make a list, I can send someone to pick it up, otherwise, it's hard to say what will happen to them next." ”
Fern Jerome kept staring at Li Mu and didn't speak, and after half a sound, Fern Jerome suddenly muttered: "Is the thing you said last time still effective?" ”
"What?" Li Mu was confused, Li Mu and Fern Jerome have been in contact with each other a lot recently, and they have said a lot of things, Fern Jerome came to such a sentence without a head, Li Mu really didn't know what Fern Jerome was referring to.
"Shares, shares in Junma Electric Europe—" Fern Jerome finally came to terms with reality.
When Fern Jerome helped Li Mu and Prince Edward match, Li Mu proposed to give Fern Jerome a part of the shares of Junma Electric Europe, but Fern Jerome did not agree to this matter in order to draw a line with Li Mu.
Li Mu originally wanted to use the shares to pull Fern Jerome to his side, so as to tie Fern Jerome and Li Mu together with interests, and Fern Jerome would provide Li Mu with certain convenience.
Li Mu can understand why Fern Jerome did not agree at that time, Fern Jerome must be very clear that if he takes Li Mu's money, he will do things for Li Mu, at least he can't spoil Li Mu's affairs, and he didn't take it at that time because Fern Jerome still has a certain amount of persistence, and now that the times have changed, there is no point in insisting anymore.
"Of course you can, but you should also know that now that Junma Electric Europe has been established and is about to enter the profitable stage, you can only get two percent now." Li Mu did not refuse Fern Jerome, and the Junma Electric Company wanted to enter the UK, and it would be more convenient if there was the support of the church.
At the beginning, Li Mu prepared five percent of the shares for Fern Jerome, but now it has dropped to two percent, not counting Li Mu's watching people serve dishes, it can only be said that Fern Jerome did not seize the opportunity.
"Okay, two percent, how much did Junma Electric Company make last year?" Fern Jerome is concerned about how much the two percent are worth.
"More than 10 million dollars." Li Mu did not exaggerate, in fact, if you take into account the advance payment, this figure will be more.
Ten million dollars, two percent is 200,000 dollars, even if you look at Europe, for individuals, this is a huge amount of money.
"Good!" Fern Jerome no longer talks nonsense, this money is enough for Fern Jerome to comfort himself.
Yan Shun's movements were still very fast, and it only took about twenty minutes for Yan Shun to lead people to run back.
When the carriage rushed into the camp through the drawbridge over the trench, the feather arrows on the carriage were very conspicuous, and everyone, including Yan Shun, had a palpitation on their faces.
"Did anyone attack you?" Li Mu didn't expect the situation to deteriorate to such an extent.
"Yes, a lot of people—" Yan Shun jumped off his horse and inserted the python pistol in his hand back into the holster at his waist.
The situation is already quite tense, and Hawaii City is full of indigenous people, who are gathering in groups near the Chinese and British ghettos, looking at everyone passing by with malicious eyes, and the atmosphere is very depressing, as if it is a frying pan, and it only takes a spark to break out in a disaster.
It's okay near the American gathering area, the Hawaiian Rifles are under the control of the Americans, so there is no need to worry about the safety of those Americans, there are rifle teams stationed, and those natives dare not harass the American gathering area.
"Ream, send someone to protect the British ghetto, I know you can do it." Fern Jerome red-eyed.
In fact, there are armed forces in the British enclave, and high-ranking officials like Fern Jerome also have gunmen in his family, but in the face of many Native Hawaiians, if something unexpected happens, the gunmen who are inferior in number are a drop in the bucket.
"Leo, go find Ford and ask him to send someone-" Li Mu was decisive, he knew how tyrannical these people would be once they became irritable.
In the 21st century, this kind of thing can be said to be common, and in the early days, the Chinese were often the victims, but as the Celestial Empire grew in power, the Chinese were no longer the target of the mob.
It was late, and before Yan Shun could turn over and get on his horse, he heard the watchtower start a warning shooting.
I don't know when it began, hundreds of native Hawaiians have gathered around the beach camp, they may be waiting for some signal, but they have no intention of attacking the beach camp, just coldly watching everyone and every house in the beach camp, their eyes are full of tyranny and hatred.
After eight o'clock in the morning, the number of people gathered more and more, and when the number exceeded two thousand, those natives finally couldn't bear it, especially Yan Shun had just led people out of the camp to pick up Fern Jerome's family, and when they saw Fern Jerome's wife and daughter trembling down from the carriage, those natives finally moved, and they began to approach the camp.
The sentries on the watchtowers were well prepared, each watchtower was equipped with two "Rainstorm" light machine guns, and the bullets were even more sufficient, and the machine gunners were already on standby, and from the time the crowd began to gather, the sentinels were in strict control of the Hawaiians.
So those Hawaiians just made a move, and the machine gunners in the tower immediately started to shoot alertly.
Click-
After a crisp burst of gunfire, on a watchtower in front of him, Mason held a tin horn and warned the Hawaiians: "Don't come near here, if you don't want to die, then now it's better to get the hell out of me-"
After more than 100 years of infiltration by the Americans, many Hawaiians can speak English, and they are quite fluent, especially those Hawaiian mixed-race, their English is as familiar as their mother tongue, so those Hawaiians can understand the warnings of the guards.
Regrettably, the Hawaiians were not deterred by the warning shots, and instead of getting out of the way, they continued to approach the camp.
Does the law not hold the public accountable?
This may be the case under normal circumstances, but if the behavior goes beyond the bottom line, no matter how "crowded" it is, it will definitely be punished.
Having been honed by the Battle of the Long Street and the trip to Cuba, Mason was not a soft-hearted man, and seeing the Hawaiians continue to approach the camp, Mason ordered the machine gunners around him: "Aim at their legs and shoot a round-"
One round, is a magazine, the magazine of the "Rainstorm" light machine gun uses a portable magazine, and the bullets are not as many as the 250-round chain of the "Rainstorm" heavy machine gun, but the ammunition capacity of 100 rounds also has sufficient firepower continuity.
"Understood—" The blood-red light machine gunner smirked, sank the muzzle slightly, and pulled the trigger in his hand.
Click-
Even though the bullets used in the "Rainstorm" light machine gun were smokeless powder, there was still smoke in the air when firing continuously.
The muzzle of the "Rainstorm" light machine gun equipped in the beach camp was not equipped with a muzzle flame suppressor, so when firing continuously, the muzzle flame erupted from the muzzle was more than half a foot long, and the continuous bullets were like a metal storm composed of bullets, rolling towards the Hawaiians who were silently advancing.
The rate of fire of the "Rainstorm" light machine gun is 500 rounds per minute, and on average, it can fire eight rounds per second, and a 100-round magazine only takes a little more than 10 seconds to fire all of them.
After a hundred rounds of ammunition, the entire barrel has become dark red, at this time the barrel needs to be replaced, if it is not replaced and continues to fire, it will not only affect the first degree, and then affect the life of the barrel, but also may lead to the bullet bursting, causing a greater accident.
The sub-machine gunner next to him was already prepared, wearing thick gloves on his hands, and the spare barrel and spare magazine were at hand, and as soon as the gunfire fell, the gunsmoke had not completely dissipated, and the sub-machine gunner began to replace the barrel and magazine, and the whole process took less than five seconds, and the barrel and magazine were replaced.
At this time, the smoke had just dispersed.
What is presented in front of Mason is almost the hell of Shura.
Although Mason had the Heavy aim at his legs, the muzzle of the gun would jump when firing continuously, so perhaps the first few shots were directed at the legs, and the trajectory of the subsequent shots was uncontrollable.
This is a full-charge bullet, not a rubber bullet in the conventional sense, rubber bullets can still kill people, these military bullets are designed to kill people, needless to say, there are indeed people who are injured in the legs, but more are wounded in the chest and abdomen, the fan area opposite the machine gunner has been stained red with blood, the stumps and broken arms have been beaten everywhere, at least thirty people have fallen on the ground, this is still the result of a dive, a bullet can often only hit one person, if it is a flat shot, a bullet may hit three or four people, That will do more damage.
It was enough, a bullet box was empty, and those Hawaiians had fully understood the force of the beach camp, and no one wanted to send them to death, so even if they were unwilling, these Hawaiians wanted to change their targets.
