Chapter 588: Sharpening the Knife Huo Huo Xiang Niu Niu (II)


The development of British Malaya in this dimension is somewhat different from the original time and space.

In 1930, they integrated the original Federation of Malay, the Malay States, and the Straits Settlements to form the Federation of Malaya, 16 years ahead of schedule.

This change is also to adapt to changes in current events.

Malaya in the original time and space did not have such a vigorous independence movement in this plane.

Prior to this, British Malaya was divided into three parts, in order of affinity: the Straits Settlements, the Malay Federation and the Malay States.

The Straits Settlements were directly under the British government.

They were originally composed of three British ports: Singapore, Temasek, Penang, and Malacca.

Therefore, they were called Sanzhoufu by the local Chinese at the time.

Later, Christmas Island and Cocos Islands in the Indian Ocean were added. and Labuan Port in Sabah.

This area is the smallest, but its strategic location is the most important.

The Governor of the Straits Settlements was appointed by the British King and concurrently served as the Governor of the Federation of Malay and the Malay States.

He was the highest official in British Malaya and had overall jurisdiction over judicial, administrative, and military powers.

The Governor is stationed in Singapore, and local government affairs are carried out by resident officers or advisors appointed by the Governor.

The second is the Malay Federation, which is one of the British colonial governments in the Malay Peninsula.

It is composed of four Malay dynasties on the peninsula that accepted British protection, including Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, Perak and Pahang.

It was established in 1895, with its capital Kuala Lumpur is also known as the capital of four states by the Chinese.

The British implemented so-called "indirect management" in the Malay Federation to distinguish it from the "direct management" implemented in the Straits Settlements.

The head of the Federation is the High Commissioner, who is concurrently served by the Governor of the Straits Settlements, but the person actually responsible for governing is the Chief Resident of the Federation, who handles federal affairs in accordance with the Governor's will.

In 1909, the Malay Federation Conference was established, with the High Commissioner of the Malay Federation also serving as the speaker.

The laws of each state were passed by the Federal Conference and then handed over to the sultan of each state for execution.

The highest administrative organ of each state is the State Council, chaired by the sultan of each state.

The British resident officers stationed in each state are ex-officio members and are responsible for collecting taxes and deciding on legislative measures.

In fact, the sultan was a tool in the hands of British residents and advisers when it came to deciding questions of practical importance.

Finally, there is the Malay State, which is composed of the five states of Johor, Kedah, Kelantan, Terengganu and Perlis in the northern and southern parts of the Malay Peninsula that have not joined the Malay Federation.

Terengganu, Kelantan, Kedah and Perlis, located in the northern part of the Malay Peninsula, have always been vassals of Siam and have varying degrees of political dependence with Siam.

States form a federation.

In order to annex these princely states, Britain signed the Bangkok Treaty with Siam in March 1909 in exchange for changing its extraterritorial jurisdiction in Siam, acquiring suzerainty over Kelantan, Terengganu, Kedah and Perlis.

Administrative power and management power placed these four states under British colonial rule.

After the British colonists took complete control of the Kingdom of Johor in 1914, they collectively referred to Johor, Kedah, Kelantan, Terengganu and Perlis as a Malay state.

Although the five Malay states are independent in name, each state also has its own parliament to assist in administrative affairs.

Compared with the states in the Malay Federation, they retain more real power and more power.

The traditional local political organization form.

The British adopted different governance strategies based on the composition of local social groups and the strength of political power, reducing the cost of colonial rule.

Although the Malay states were not directly subordinate to the British, they were actually dominated by British colonists.

British rule in the Malay states was no different from that of the Malay Federation, except that the resident officers were changed to advisers.

The colonial independence movement that broke out at the end of World War I completely changed this situation.

Britain's original three-horse partition system could no longer be maintained.

Luckily for the Straits Settlements, the majority of locals in these port cities are Chinese, and the number of local indigenous people is small, and most of them are pro-British.

Needless to say, the pro-British faction among the Chinese will definitely not make trouble with the indigenous people.

Even those pro-China faction are under the control of China and have not participated.

Therefore, the Straits Settlements did not cause much trouble and were considered the most peaceful.

The Federation of Malay and the Malay states are different.

The indigenous people here are very noisy and happy.

In the end, the British were forced to use concentration camps, poison gas bombs and other major tactics to suppress these guys.

The British finally put down the riot with great effort, but the British, who were already troubled by the indigenous people, simply combined the three horses into one in order to facilitate their rule.

After establishing the Federation of Malaya, the British discovered another disturbing fact.

This means that the number of local Chinese has exceeded half.

Before the end of World War I, the total population of British Malaya was about 3 million, and the number of Chinese was only 300,000, only 10%.

By 1930, the number of Chinese had exceeded 100 million, and after years of war, the number of local indigenous people is less than 1 million.

The local indigenous people have been completely killed and are afraid to make trouble, but the Chinese have become a factor of instability.

If we change to the original time and space, if the mother country is not strong, we will not be afraid no matter how many Chinese there are.

On the contrary, these smart and hard-working Chinese can create more value than those stupid and lazy natives, and the British will be happier.

But this plane is different.

The Eastern dragon has completely awakened.

Not only has it awakened, it has become more powerful, more powerful than any other period in history.

It longs to be nourished by the flesh and blood of neighboring nations.

In this case, so many Chinese people are a big trouble.

The British will never forget how the Dutch East Indies were lost.

It would be strange to say that Wen Desi had no idea about Malaya.

The British bosses are confused.

What should they do if they want to go back on their word and revoke the Haikou agreement that allows the Chinese to open mines and build factories?

That is to completely break up with China.

That guy Wen Desi will never let it go.

Things are so messed up in Europe, how dare the British go back on their word?

There are other ways if they don't.

Everyone knows that Britain has been a troublemaker for thousands of years.

But few people know that the British are also particularly good at making friends.

It's probably a racial skill that goes hand in hand with "Shit Stirrer".

Opium Cow's "He Mud" skill is also ax.

In this case, just stirring up shit was not enough, so they started to activate the "Muddy Mud" skill again, using both skills at the same time.

Don’t you, China, just want the Chinese to have an advantage in Malaya?

Aren’t you always talking to us about the treatment of the Chinese?

No problem.

The British colonial authorities immediately vigorously promoted a group of pro-British Chinese, allowing these "banana people" to serve as colonial government officials, and at the same time opened up to them originally restricted senior positions.

At the same time, there was a plan to use China to control China, and let those banana people take care of the pro-China Chinese and the staff from China.

Niu Niu's move was very powerful, and it immediately caused China to suffer a dumb loss.

Wen Desi and a group of central government bosses were disgusted by this move.

The opium-cow trick was really difficult to solve, and it was impossible for Wen Desi to say that those "banana people" were not Chinese.

Although they do not count in terms of emotions, they are powerful Chinese in terms of blood.

If it were a later generation, there might not really be a good solution.

But the current era is different.

Now is the last golden age of gangsters.

Once gangsters get impatient, they can be shameless and stop showing off.

If they can't deal with the cards, they can just flip the table.

So after Wen Desi was disgusted for several years, he immediately took cruel measures.

So starting from 1935, the probability of accidents for the "banana people" in Malaya began to increase significantly, and unnatural deaths continued to occur.

Several upper-class Chinese families famous for their banana people even suffered tragic disasters.

There are all kinds of accidents, including car accidents, shipwrecks, fires, plagues, animal disasters, insect disasters, and attacks by indigenous bandits, etc.

There are all kinds of unbelievable accidents.

Now it was the British's turn to be dumbfounded.

They did not expect that Wen Desi would be so ruthless and would not play according to the rules and directly play out the traditional routine.

This is really shameless, but the British don’t have a good response method.

These things are done too cleanly.

Not only is there no evidence to point to China, but the parties involved in some incidents are British citizens or people from other countries.

As for the local There are even more indigenous people.

If it were changed to the past, when the British Empire was strong and powerful, it would really not be afraid of these methods.

The worst case scenario is to break up and stop playing, and just send troops to speak with giant ships and cannons.

But it can’t be done now.

The First World War, which lasted for more than five years, and the colonial independence movement that followed for nearly ten years, have almost exhausted the cow’s blood.

Not to mention, there is still a lively Erdezi in Europe who is watching with eagerness.

As an opponent, China is already the world's largest industrial country and the most populous country.

If the British really dare to break up like this, China will definitely be eager to do so.

If the two sides engage in aggression, not only Malaya will be lost at that time, but the entire Asia-Pacific region may also fall.

This is on the premise that Er Dezi doesn't take the opportunity to take action.

If Wei San and Xiao Xiu take action, the consequences are simply unimaginable.

Therefore, not only does Britain not dare to turn its back on China's shameless tactics of siphoning off wages, but it also dares not use a reciprocal trick, that is, to make "accidents" happen to those pro-China Chinese leaders.

There is no way, the national strength really cannot support it.

However, the Opium Cow has been around for many years and can afford it.

After seeing that there is really no way to maintain it in Malaya, it does not want to get entangled with China on this matter.

So they announced in April 1939 that they would hold a referendum in Malaya ten years later, in 1949, saying that they would let the Malayan people decide the fate of Malaya themselves.

Immigration restrictions here were also liberalized.

Logically speaking, this is because the British have given up.

But they may have been a troublemaker for too long, giving up while making small moves at the same time, because this immigration is open to the whole world.

In other words, not only Chinese people can immigrate there, but people from other regions can also immigrate there, and these people are mainly Indians.

This is obviously causing trouble for China.

Wen Desi was very unhappy with this so-called concession from Opium Niu.

On the one hand, he didn't want to wait that long.

On the other hand, he is planning to make Malay Adam his own country, rather than creating a Chinese-dominated country.

Naturally, he cannot tolerate the British bringing in too many third brothers to seize the territory.

Therefore, taking action against Malaya was something that Wen Desi had already included in his plan.

Even without this espionage incident, it would have been during this period of time.

This espionage incident simply caused Wen Desi to expand his plan and incorporate operations in Oceania.

December 24, 1940, 2781 AD, Ipoh, Perak, Federation of Malaya.

Perak is the third largest state among the 11 states of the Federation of Malaya, covering an area of ​​approximately 21,000 square kilometers.

It is located on the Malaysia-Thailand border in northwest Malaya.

Erak means silver in Malay.

Because tin mines were discovered in Perak before, but they were mistaken for silver.

Although they were later identified as tin, the name "Perak" still remains today.

Ipoh is the capital of Perak.

It is also known as "Little Guilin" by the Chinese because of its beautiful mountains and rivers and beautiful scenery.

This is a city with a majority of Chinese people.

Since the indigenous rebellion was put down, there have been more Chinese people.

However, under the influence of the British, the number of Indians has increased a lot and they have become the second largest ethnic group in the country after the Chinese.

At this time, in a small alley in Ipoh City, several thick-shouldered Chinese young men were surrounding an indigenous young man.

"I said, hurry up and do it.

If you don't understand, hurry up and push harder."

A bald Chinese young man pointed at his forehead and said impatiently.

"I, I," the native held a stick in his hand and looked at them tremblingly, with an expression on his face that was almost bitter.

"Be good, be obedient."

Another Chinese young man was singing the praises of the group.

He took out two banknotes with a smile: "You just need to give him a hard blow on the head, and these twenty Chinese dollars will be yours.

This is equivalent to You do it for a week.”

"Bubububu" the natives almost cried.

They shook their heads repeatedly and said in blunt Chinese: "Take a bububu, it will cost you five silks."

"Damn it, you're going to die if you don't hit me today," the bald man said fiercely, becoming anxious.

At this time, a stern female voice sounded: "Stop" Several Chinese men and women walked out quickly from a nearby room.

The leader was a tall, wavy beauty wearing a gray shirt.

This beautiful woman now has a pretty face with frost on her face.

"This man is not good at all.

Send him away quickly."

She pointed at the native.

"Go away, go away, you are an idiot, you can't handle even a small thing."

The Chinese young men immediately snatched the stick, took a piece of money and stuffed it into the hands of the native, and sent him away like a fly. .

The native ran away as if he had been granted amnesty.

As soon as these guys turned around, they changed their faces, with smiles on their faces, and said flatteringly: "Secretary-General Xiang, we didn't know this guy was such a loser.

Fortunately, this guy is still a tyrant among the local indigenous people.

Unexpectedly, More timid than a rabbit” Beauty Xiang ignored them, but got angry at a middle-aged man next to her: "Look at who you have chosen."

She pointed to the young men just now.

"With how they are, they don't look like victims.

If I didn't come over and take a look, you would have screwed up.

Have you read the manual?

It says very clearly.

If you look like that, you will be easy to bully. " s: For reasons that everyone knows, the names of well-known historical figures in China must be avoided in this book, so original characters are needed to fill in the content.
