New Ming Empire mixed in America
Chapter 81: Declaring War on California
"Take out two regiments and give you a month to let them form combat effectiveness. I will send Jin Yiwei to assist you."
Li Mingqi's expression was very serious, and he was not prepared to let go of anyone who dared to provoke the Xinming Empire.
After Sun Laifu resigned under the order, Li Mingqi looked at the globe on his desk and became distracted.
Originally he thought that carrots and sticks could make these people on the West Coast bow, but now it seems...
If a big stick doesn't work, you still have to rely on cannons!
The next day, the Xinming Empire's radio broadcasts began to report on the tragedy that occurred in San Francisco, and clearly stated that 315 imperial subjects were killed.
In the afternoon, His Majesty Li Mingqi's voice accompanied the broadcast and reached the ears of every citizen of the empire.
"People of the Xinming Empire, now you know the tragedy that happened in San Francisco..."
"Here, I officially declare: Starting today, from now on, the Xinming Empire officially declares war on San Francisco! Declares war on California!"
"Now that they have torn off the mask of hypocrisy, the New Ming Empire will also show its fangs!"
"Let those who dare to provoke the Xinming Empire see what it means to be a dragon that eats flesh and drinks blood!"
"Remember, 315 imperial subjects were buried in the port of San Francisco a few days ago. In a few days, I hope to hold a military parade in San Francisco to pay homage to those fallen subjects."
"Finally, I hope everyone in the empire will remember the following two sentences."
"Anyone who dares to offend our Xinming Empire will be punished!"
"Those who harm our people of the Xinming Empire will be repaid tenfold!"
Li Mingqi's declaration was brought back to San Francisco by merchant ships.
These merchant ships who were expelled from the Long Beach dock did not understand after arriving in San Francisco why a war was suddenly about to break out when business was going well.
Those California fishermen who stayed in the Xinming Empire were also issued notices to leave the country within a time limit.
He also kindly informed them about the national borders of the Xinming Empire at this time.
"Actually, the national boundary of the Xinming Empire is easy to remember. It is bounded by the Nevada Mountains!"
Looking at the fishermen who were still a little confused, the familiar ‘Gong Zhi’ frowned and said impatiently:
"Don't you understand? Just walking into the Nevada Mountains is equivalent to stepping into the territory of my Xinming Empire. You understand this time!"
"Get out of here as soon as you understand, because now our Xinming Empire has officially declared war on California."
Of course, to quote the British army that surrounded Acadia on September 5, 1755, that is:
'It's always not smooth to expel some people, so we sometimes use other methods.'
That year, more than 11,000 Acadians were expelled, and more than 3,000 of them died during the migration.
This year, more than 3,000 California fishermen were expelled from the territory of the Xinming Empire, but the Xinming Empire treated these people kindly.
Although later on, more than 2,300 of the more than 3,000 fishermen were sold back to the Xinming Empire by the heroes of the Nevada Mountains.
But His Majesty Li Mingqi dared to pat his chest and say loudly:
"I have never persecuted those fishermen, but I will not stop those fishermen from doing things for the empire without asking for anything in return!"
In mid-December 1860, San Francisco newspapers published a declaration of war issued by the New Ming Empire to San Francisco and the entire California.
It is also accompanied by a map of the division of power on the West Coast published by the Xinming Empire, referred to as the West Coast Map.
Looking at the national boundaries marked with white lines, everyone was a little confused.
Because on this map, a white line is used to draw a circle along the Nevada Mountains and the West Coast Mountains, and the entire California.
The inside of the circle is the territory of California, and everything outside the circle is the territory of the Xinming Empire.
This very clear map allows Californians to intuitively understand what their West Coast looks like for the first time.
It was also the first time that I intuitively understood the specific scope of California.
Look at the tiny California on the map, and the even smaller city of San Francisco in California.
Coupled with the news of the destruction of the 9th Infantry Regiment, which had more than 1,600 people, when all this was combined, a series of changes occurred in the mentality of San Francisco residents.
From the very beginning: ‘Xinming Empire? That’s a joke!’
Some time ago: 'I think the Xinming Empire can only be regarded as a small country!'
And now: 'Why should we be enemies with the Xinming Empire?'
Therefore, propaganda work is no less than a real battle.
This is considered a shameless act by a certain Head of State Li who did not want to be named.
Otherwise, he will follow the "I was beaten, but I can fight back in the movie" operation of a certain curry country in later generations, and do a wave of deceptive publicity.
So when a captain who had just resigned saw the San Francisco newspaper with the "Director Lee's Declaration" printed on it.
The confusion in his heart suddenly disappeared.
Compared with work and life, obviously one's own life is more important.
When he looked at a certain fat man who was in high spirits just two days ago, giving speeches all over San Francisco to win attention, an expression of schadenfreude appeared on his face.
Throwing the newspaper on the table, the captain calmly picked up the wine glass and shouted to all the drunkards in the tavern: "Cheers to the lost job!"
Suddenly, middle fingers were raised in the tavern.
At the same time, those little psoriasis-like advertisements (crossed out)...promotional posters began to appear on the streets of San Francisco.
These posters, which seemed to appear suddenly overnight, only printed a reward message:
'As the emperor of the Xinming Empire, I declare: The following people will be included in the Xinming Empire's most wanted list and will remain alive until death!'
The list is as follows:
Mayor of San Francisco - Harris and his family members (Kill: 5,000 bounty for the main criminal, 500 bounty for the rest.)
San Francisco Ore Merchant - Terrence and his family owners (the bounty for capturing this man alive is 10,000, and whoever kills him will pay for his life! The bounty for killing his family members is 500.)
Maritime patrol fleet - everyone who was aboard these eight patrol ships at that time (Kill: the captain will receive a bounty of 1,000, and the remaining 500.)
Coast Guard officials - all of them (Killed: 2,000 for the main criminal and 1,000 for the remaining ones.)
.........The above bounties are all paid by the Xinming Empire (those who choose banknotes can get 20% more bounties!)
It is this bounty information that makes all San Francisco residents subconsciously convert them into bounty amounts when they see the people on the list.
As a result, almost all the people on the list seldom go out these days, hoping to wait for the popularity of this matter to subside.
But they still underestimated the temptation of this reward for those desperadoes.
In a slum in San Francisco, Cui Jianguo held the reward order printed in Chinese and English and spoke nonstop.
If it weren't for his left hand hanging on his chest, his image would be more like a gangster godfather.
"This is the hope for our rise. Think about it, as long as we find an opportunity to raid this fat man's mine, then we won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of our lives."
"And with your skills, I believe it will be easy to accomplish this!"
Just when Cui Jianguo wanted to continue, the translator suddenly tugged on his clothes and asked in a low voice: "What does it mean to be easy? How should I translate it?"
