Chapter 1027: Ming Dynasty and Britain are the same (Second update, Happy New Year!)
Footsteps echoed in the corridor.
As An Fusheng walked along the corridor, he would always encounter police officers standing on the side saluting the colonial governor.
This is the underground detention room of the Police Headquarters. It is normal to encounter police officers here.
Soon, he was in the torture chamber.
Chen Yi followed beside him.
After entering the interrogation room, he saw Ahmed tied to the tiger bench.
At this time, Ahmed had been tortured beyond recognition, and the blood that flowed from the tiger bench mixed with the water on the ground. The sight of his torn skin and flesh would be shocking to anyone who saw it.
An Fusheng, who came from a military background, sat opposite him with a calm expression.
At this time, the governor looked at him with cold eyes, just like an ordinary interrogator.
Seeing someone coming, Ahmed looked up subconsciously.
"You, you...why? Why..."
Ahmed's tone was full of confusion. He had been confident that he could get the assistance of the Ming Dynasty. With the assistance of the Ming Dynasty, they would get a lot of weapons and could defeat the British more easily.
But the result was beyond his expectations, he could not even imagine that they would do this.
Why?
He just couldn't understand why the governor in front of him had no intention of cooperating with them, and was not even interested in the attack on Saidi Mubarak.
"Sir, do you know what the biggest mistake you made is?"
An Fusheng sat on the chair, flipping through the interrogation records in his hand. This guy confessed everything in just one day, including things like peeping at women going to the toilet and taking a bath when he was a child. For those people, the empire's methods were definitely not something they could resist.
"What? What's wrong?"
"You think that there are various conflicts between the Ming Empire and the British Empire, so there is an opportunity to profit from them. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. This is not wrong. According to common sense, it is true. According to common sense, yes, I should support you, give you weapons, give you money, and support you in fighting the British. Yes... I should do this."
Not to mention Ahmed's curiosity, even Chen Yi looked at the Governor and made things difficult for the British...Shouldn't this kind of thing be done?
"Then why do you..."
Ahmed was puzzled.
"Why don't you support you? Instead, put you in jail?"
After closing the file, An Fusheng looked at the other person and smiled.
"So, this is where you're stupid, you forget one thing - we're the same as the British!"
"What?"
Chen Yi looked at the Governor in confusion.
Like the British?
"What did you say?"
"We and Britain are of course two countries, but we have a common identity in this land - foreign colonizers. This identity determines that there is no essential difference between us and them in terms of interests. We came here to rule, to colonize, to rule this land. If we support you in overthrowing the British rule in Sudan, perhaps you will become our friend... But is this possible?"
An Fusheng shook his head.
"Just like your confession before, in order to gain our support, you encouraged Saidi Mubarak to invade my colony. If we are willing to assist you, you will hand that guy over. Well, this also gives us the premise for cooperation, so... very good."
Looking at Ahmed with contempt, these people are too simple-minded.
"But how long can our cooperation last? One year? Two years? Three years? Even if it lasts forever, so what? But it doesn't matter, because we will never cooperate with you!"
"Why? You obviously have all kinds of conflicts with the British."
"Because your success will be a disaster for the colonies. It will be like a fuse that will ignite the dissatisfaction of the colonies and give those people in my colonies hope, the hope of resistance... This will damage our fundamental interests. Do you think there is room for us to cooperate in this situation?"
So that's how it is!
Chen Yi looked at the governor in surprise. Now he understood why he could not cooperate with those people in the British colonies who resisted colonial rule.
The success of those people was hope and encouragement to the ruled in the Ming colonies, and eventually they would launch riots against colonial rule.
“This, this…”
Ahmed was dumbfounded, he didn't expect this result. He held on to the last glimmer of hope and asked.
"Well, what about Saidi Mubarak? Don't you care? He..."
"He...is nothing to be feared!"
An Fusheng smiled.
"Last night, his attack was repelled by us. 37 soldiers repelled the attack of 20,000 thugs and killed nearly 10,000 people!"
"What?"
Looking at Ahmed's surprised expression, An Fusheng laughed proudly.
"Haha, isn't it amazing? I think so too, it's like a miracle!"
After saying that, he stood up, and when he was about to leave, he turned back and looked at the other person and said.
"By the way, you and your people will be handed over to the British this afternoon. Well, as for Saidi Mubarak, the British will hand him over to us. Now do you understand?"
Is this what it means for the colonists to cooperate with each other, to "fight among themselves" and let the natives benefit? How stupid must the colonists be! Since the natives did not want to be colonized by the British, were they happy to be colonized by the Ming Dynasty?
Some fantasies...are unacceptable!
"You, you damned pagans, Kafei..."
An Fusheng ignored the roars in the interrogation room. He just walked and asked.
"Adjutant Chen, do you know why now?"
"I understand now. In the colonies, our identity is the same as that of the British. In order to maintain the local rule of both parties, we should cooperate based on our common identity. Adding insult to injury may seem to destroy their rule, but it will also bring uncertain threats to our rule."
An Fusheng nodded at the adjutant's analysis, and then he said,
“This is also why European colonists would never support a colonial uprising in a hostile country, because…it would indeed bring unimaginable disasters.”
As he walked into the elevator, An Fusheng casually said:
"So, in the colonies, there is no us and them, only colonizers and colonized. Everything centers on this - continuing to rule the colonies. Everything else... is not important at all!"
When the elevator door closed, An Fusheng looked at Chen Yi who was thoughtful and said.
"Okay, don't think about these issues for now. Wait a few years and go to the European colonies to investigate and learn how they manage their colonies. We still need to learn more from them. By the way, have the reporters arrived?"
"Yes, sir, the reporters should have arrived at the Governor's Palace."
Nodding, An Fusheng said with a smile.
"Well, very good, let's tell the reporters about this border battle. After all, this is a miracle!"
This is the miracle of machine guns!
Now, it's time to make it famous around the world!
