Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

In 1920 (the ninth year of the Republic of China), Burr, director of the British Far East Intelligence Bureau, secretly came to Lhasa to carry out the so-called M-6 Burr plan, and his public identity was the administrator of the British Empire in Sikkim.

(XIII) regarded him as a guest of honor, and sent a private secretary as a representative to receive Bir, and offered Hada, and chose the Regent's villa near Norbulingka as Bir's residence.

The main purpose of the Burr Plan was to undermine the unity of the Sino-Tibetan unity, to prevent the restoration of normal relations between Tibet and the interior of the motherland, to ensure the colonial interests of the East India Company in India, and to eliminate the threat from the East.

The first thing Boer did was to create ethnic contradictions, further worsen the relations between Tibet and the hinterland, cater to the dream of a part of the upper strata of Tibet, attempt to establish a greater Tibetan state, and instigate the Tibetan army to invade Qinghai, Yunnan, Sichuan, Gansu, Xikang, and other places, and use this method to force the Han and Tibetan nationalities to split.

In order to realize the above plan, Boer and discussed increasing taxes and expanding the new army, expanding the original Tibetan army from 5,000 to 15,000.

In order to successfully implement the Burr Plan, the British Far East Intelligence Bureau and the British Empire government invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources in Tibet, so that the new army uniforms that were later compiled and trained were also British styles, and in order to solve the problem of weapons and ammunition, the British helped build a machine factory, which was later changed to a printing house because of low production efficiency, and the required arms and weapons were completely supplied by the British.

The ultimate goal of the Burr Plan was to make Tibet, like India, break away from the territory of Great China and become a colony of the British Empire in the Far East, but due to the resolute opposition of the vast number of Tibetan monks and people, the Burr Plan was not fully realized.

In the heyday of the British Empire, British strategists believed that India, which was many times larger than the British mainland, was the best colony of the British Empire, the food basket of Britain, and the jewel in the crown of the British Crown. In order to permanently possess the colony of India, it is necessary to eliminate a crisis in the cradle, and China's Tibet region has a natural geographical advantage over India, and only by permanently mastering Tibet can the long-term interests of the British Empire in this colony of India be ensured.

It is precisely because of his understanding of the above history that Li Yong knows that the British foreigners in Tibet are basically the executors of the Boer Plan and are spies with ulterior motives in China's Tibet region, and they cannot have the slightest mercy and softness towards these people, so they are not tried without trial. Initiatives for direct shooting.

Li Yong's reason is very simple, Lao Tzu will kill you all, see how his Boer plan is still implemented, in addition to these dozens of foreigners, there are also some local collaborators, most of these cooperators are local nobles. Brigadier Li's handling method is not complicated, just like those spies. Kill them all.

Outside Lhasa. The cold wind blew, and a group of people were tied together by five flowers, and the soldiers with submachine guns on their backs worked in pairs, dragging these people with different appearances and accents like dead dogs, and pressing them one by one on the cold ground.

Arms tied. Kneeling in the dust, with cold-faced gunmen behind them, and a large number of onlookers outside, even fools know what is going to happen here.

It's about shooting criminals. Among those who will be shot are foreigners with yellow hair and green eyes, as well as native-born locals, but the fate that awaits them is the same.

There was no longer the arrogance of the past, and some of the bound personnel were glazed and stupid, and some of them were slumping to the ground with their legs hanging like noodles, and some were shouting.

The content of the shouts also varied, with a few foreigners with distinctly different faces from the locals shouting in several languages: "What are you going to do? You are savages, you are beasts, and I will accuse. ”

Standing in the cold wind with Li Yong were a number of local Kashag government officials, who had been invited by the Independent Brigade to watch the execution of the executed prisoners.

Imitating the memories of his previous life, Li Yong pulled these prisoners in several cars, and hung a temporary wooden sign on his chest, with the name of the person written on the sign, and the name was drawn with a big cross with a red pen, and he circled the streets and alleys of Lhasa several times.

From an ordinary soldier in the Second Column to the commander of the First Brigade today, from the Great Northwest to Xinjiang, from Urumqi to Lhasa, several years of bloody career, countless times rolling on the line of life and death, countless battles of all sizes, Li Yong almost forgot the memories of his previous life, today seeing the people who were paraded on the street, seeing the scene like an old movie, Li Yong thought in a trance that he was still a traverser.

The old prince Dazha, who was bowing his waist, seemed to be a little unbearable, and walked a few steps to Li Yong's side to persuade him: "Leader of the army, this is a bit too cruel, our Tibet is the place of Guanyin Bodhisattva's teaching, and you are blaspheming the gods by doing this." ”

Li Yong glanced at the old prince Dazha, this old guy is kind on the surface, like a good old man, but in fact, there is a ruthlessness in his bones.

Dazha's former regent Rezhen Living Buddha is a member of the Kuomintang, and is also a good living Buddha who maintains national unity and national unity, loves the country and loves the religion, and was later killed by Dazha using tricks and poison, which is why Dazha has the upper position, Dazha regarded the People's Liberation Army as a big trouble after taking the position, he actively expanded his troops, and deployed the main force of the Tibetan army on the Jinsha River, and wanted to block the PLA from entering Tibet with natural dangers, which led to the Qamdo Battle that had to be fought.

Li Yong, who is familiar with this period of history, will not know about Dazha's insidiousness, but in view of the environment and policies at the time, there is no way to do anything to him, seeing Dazha interceding for these people who are about to be shot, Li Yong sneered a few times: "Since the old prince intercedes for them, bring the fiercest guys over and let Lao Tzu ask them what grievances they have." ”

A few guys with green eyes and big noses dressed in local Tibetan clothes were brought up, as if they had caught a life-saving straw, and these people shouted: "We are diplomats and have diplomatic immunity, you have no right to deal with us, we have to sue your government." ”

The shouting was in both Tibetan and English, and Zhou Daxing and Suo Lang Pingcuo, who knew the local language in the independent brigade, were both there, and the two of them translated the content of the shouting to Brigade Commander Li.

From the end of the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, there was a very strange phenomenon in Great China, foreigners walking on the land of China were as arrogant as the old man, while the Chinese as masters were treated as inferior pariahs, bending over like slaves to live, which developed a habit of foreigners, whenever there was a conflict with the locals, they would shout to the government, and those officials would use the people to vent their anger in order to calm their anger.

Li Yong was almost angry, and returned the diplomats, it was really thanks to their shouting, the soldiers didn't care whether they were foreign countries or locals, since the brigade commander wanted to ask, he got it, and a few rifle butts smashed these guys who shouted the loudest to kneel in front of Li Yong.

Looking at a few guys who were forced to calm down but actually tremble, Li Yong gave a kick to each of them with his feet wearing combat boots: "Diplomats? You are the diplomats, and when did our country and government recognize you as diplomats? A couple of spies who carried out the Burr plan also dared to claim to be diplomats? Brag unblushingly. ”

When Li Yong said the Burr plan, these guys all fell to the ground, because they knew that even according to international practice, the other party's spies and intelligence personnel would be shot if they were caught.

Dazha's face also changed, he knew the person of Boer, he had also interacted, he was one of the people who knew about it, Boer had returned to China before the People's Liberation Army entered Tibet, so he escaped the fate of being shot.

Don't dare to chatter and persuade anymore, according to the rules of the PLA, the collaborator will also be shot, Dazha doesn't know if he has entered the sight of the PLA, looking at the ruthless methods of the PLA commander, once he knows that he has also had dealings with Boer, he may have to peel off the skin if he doesn't die.

After eliminating several Tibetan regiments in Lhasa, arresting spies, and restoring normal production and living order, the turbulent city of Lhasa returned to calm, and the soldiers of the Independent Brigade were temporarily freed to be busy with other things.

Lhasa has been thoroughly controlled, but the task of the independent brigade is not yet finished, the city inhabited by nearly 100,000 people is already the largest city in Tibet, but this largest city in Tibet is still a little small for the independent brigade, more than 10,000 soldiers, as well as a large amount of weapons and equipment and provisions, the space required is not small, it is a very sad and big difficulty, it has been almost half a month since I arrived in Lhasa, and there are still a considerable number of soldiers stationed in tents, this is not a good thing.

Fortunately, the soldiers of the Independent Brigade are all experts in work, and they have the experience of the old second column (359th Brigade) in clearing the wasteland in Nanniwan, so it is very similar to the same thing.

Stones, timber and tools had to be prepared, so there was a lot of pressure, and Li Yong asked the Tibetan Kashag government to provide support while doing it himself.

The officials headed by Dazha and others were very disgusted with the clean-up operation of the Independent Brigade some time ago, and Li Yong and others were tantamount to depriving them of their armed forces, but they could only endure their anger, and they would not be tough when they spoke without the barrel of a gun, and although they were not satisfied with the Independent Brigade, they had no choice but to pretend to be supportive.

Brigade Commander Li Da, a duplicitous Kashag government official, knew very well that in Li Yong's mind, he did not treat them too much as a dish, saying that asking for support was to give them face, but the actual situation was that if they did not give it, they had to give it.

Thank you guys for your support, it will be a little better after this time. (To be continued)
