Chapter 761 See you late

Disasters are like a demon mirror, where the goodness of human nature or the ugliness of human nature are fully displayed in disasters.

When the sailors of the Xuanwu announced that only women and children could board the ship, and that only 100 people could board the ship, there was an immediate commotion at the crude pier.

Don’t think that white people are very civilized. Women in this era don’t even have the most basic voting rights. Underage children have to work in factories like adults. Even if the labor intensity is the same, they can only receive about half of adults salary.

In the face of disasters, the most despicable side of human nature is always magnified infinitely. After the sailors announced, the women and children were full of surprises, but some adults could not accept this gap. He yelled that he even reached out to grab the sailor's collar.

The sailor's reaction was very straightforward. He immediately raised his gun and smashed the butt of the gun down hard. The pier immediately became very quiet.

"I repeat, only women and children can board the ship, and the space on the ship is limited. Only 100 people can board the ship." Can you understand.

Some people are like this. They don’t know if they really don’t understand, or they pretend to not understand. They just push forward blindly. A small and thin child was even squeezed off the pier and fell into the river.

The officer leading the team had to order the lifeboat to temporarily leave the pier.

"Get the fuck off me, get out of here, dirty pigs—" Charles Davy and Rhyd Bobby finally appeared, and Rhyd Bobby treated them even worse, but amazingly , the few people who were desperately pushing forward just now became honest.

"Gentlemen, thank you very much. I am Charles David, the person in charge of Bukavu. This is Captain Red Bobby. He is responsible for the security of Bukavu." Charles David was very excited, and he must have taken care of it at this time It is not clear that this rebellion has anything to do with Nyasaland.

"Hello, David, hello Bobby, my name is Stephens, as you can see, our boat is not big, the space is limited, we can only accommodate 100 people on board, women and children are given priority." Stephens expressionless .

"Can you bring as many as possible? We have more than 600 women and children here—" Charles David was not surprised, that is, the Nyasaland Marine Police would do this. Many navies in this era prohibit women from boarding. ship's.

"Sorry, the space is limited—" Stephens didn't let go, this is not a market where you can bargain.

"Then can I ask you to come again." Charles David begged bitterly. As the person in charge, Charles David was still somewhat responsible.

"Sorry, it depends on the arrangement of our superiors." Stephens raised his wrist to look at the time, and his tone was a little more anxious: "There are many rebels around here, and we were attacked by rebels on the way here, so We can only stay for half an hour, and when the time is up, no matter how many people are on board, we must evacuate immediately."

Charles David didn't have much reaction to this sentence, and Red Bobby was quite speechless when he saw the Xuanwu, which was almost armed to the teeth. Give Red Bobby a warship like the Xuanwu, and Red Bobby Bi can directly return to Belgium from Bukavu.

Although the 75mm caliber main gun of the Xuanwu is not that big, but besides the main gun, the Xuanwu also has a large number of rapid-fire guns and exaggerated and hideous machine guns. These 40mm rapid-fire guns are a sharp weapon against the rebels. With a range of 2000 meters and a rate of fire of [-] rounds per minute, any infantry that appears within the shooter's line of sight will be directly shredded.

As for these exaggerated and ferocious machine guns, the official name is Gaoping dual-purpose machine gun. This kind of machine gun can not only shoot in the air, but also can be used as a super machine gun with the muzzle flat. There are a total of twenty rapid-fire guns installed on both sides of the Xuanwu ship. Cannons and high-level dual-purpose machine guns, such a destroyer is simply an unrivaled giant in the Inland River Basin.

So Lied Bobby really doubted whether those rebels would have the courage to attack the Black Tortoise.

"Please make a decision as soon as possible, and we will return when we see you." Stephens couldn't help urging, looking at these begging women and children. It is still a little difficult to send a hundred people on board, and the rope ladder is really difficult to climb without special training.

"Okay, 100 people, women and children, Bobby, you arrange it—" Charles David knew that time could not be delayed, and he couldn't decide who would be allowed to board the boat, so he simply handed over this task to Lied Bobby.

"Okay, all the men go back to me, women and children line up, this ship can only accommodate 100 people, and the rest will wait for the next one." Lied Bobby was decisive, it didn't matter whether he lied or not at this time, he could go one Is an.

"Sir—" An old man next to Stephens took off his hat and motioned.

"What are you doing here? Didn't you hear me? Get the hell out of here, men—" Red Bobby came and grabbed the old man and tried to drag him back.

"Sir, please wait a moment, sir, my son works in Nyasaland—" the old man's words immediately caught Stephens' attention.

"Wait, what did you just say?" Stephens wanted to confirm.

"I said that my son Felton works in Nyasaland. In Xuanji City in Nyasaland, Felton is a lecturer at Nyasaland University and is the pride of our whole family." The old man struggled desperately, beside him An old woman and a young woman were also chattering.

"Wait, Mr. Bobby, if what this gentleman said is true, then we must take him—" Stephens glanced at the old woman and woman next to him, and decided to add two more places: "—and his family."

Nyasaland University indeed has many lecturers and professors from continental European countries. These people have high status and respect in Nyasaland, and their families should be taken care of.

"Stephens, don't you suspect that he is lying?" Lied Bobby let go of the old man, and the old man staggered to Stephens, holding the old woman with one hand and the young woman with the other. I don't even care about the luggage on the ground.

"Whether you are lying or not, we will verify it later." Stephens doesn't care, it doesn't matter who gets on board anyway.

"Sir, my brother also works at Nyasaland University—"

"My son is studying at Nyasaland University."

"My neighbor's at Umbrella—"

On the one hand, this kind of temporary network has these side effects. As soon as Stephens finished speaking, the few people who wanted to squeeze into the boat just now started to make noise.

Lying is nothing compared to escaping. Even if it is later proved that these people are lying, the Nyasaland court will not sentence them to death, at most it is a moral condemnation.

For some people, moral condemnation does not matter at all, and if it was important, these people would not come to the Congo Free State at all.

Leopold II has ruled the Congo Free State for these years. People with a little sense of justice cannot accept the situation in the Congo Free State. It can be said that all the tortures in the history of mankind are commonplace in the Congo Free State. Understand why the rebels massacre the city at every turn, or set fire directly.

Because that's how the Belgians treated the Congolese in the past.

"Can you show some face?" Stephens hadn't spoken yet, and Red Bobby exploded directly.

"If shameless can survive, then it doesn't matter if you don't—" a stunned young man retorted directly without fear of death.

Also, all beings are equal in front of the rebels. For some people, as long as they can survive, it really doesn't matter if they are shameless.

However, the consequences of daring to answer the words at this time are really serious. Lied Bobby didn't talk nonsense, he took out his gun and walked to Lengtouqing's side. The pistol was placed on Leng Touqing's forehead, and the trigger was pulled directly.

Bah!

I didn't even think that Red Bobby would dare to shoot. Red Bobby's revolver is a large caliber 11.43 mm. This kind of pistol can kill an elephant. If you hit a person on the forehead, it will have a visual impact— —

Anyway, some women and children cried out in fright immediately, and some people vomited directly on the ground.

"Who else is shameless?" Lied Bobby was so calm that he didn't look like he had just shot and killed a person. Looking at the few people who were still emotional just now, he was silent at this moment.

"Mr. Stephens, the boat is full—" Lied Bobby looked back at Stephens with gratitude in his murderous eyes.

Stephens didn't expect Red Bobby to be so decisive. He turned around and ordered the sailors to send the people on the lifeboat to the Xuanwu first, and turned around like Red Bobby stretched out his hand.

"Let's get to know each other again. My name is Stephens, and my Chinese name is Feng Xun." Stephens thought for a while, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed them to Red Bobby: "If there is a chance, I hope to be in Ulysses. When Si sees you, I will buy you a drink."

There is a great risk for Red Bobby to do this. As long as everyone in Bukavu is not dead and some people can escape, then Red Bobby will be in trouble, and it will be a big trouble.

Even if Red Bobby had good intentions.

"Nice to meet you, Stephens. My name is Red Bobby. If I have the chance, I will definitely go to Ulysses to find you." Red Bobby took out a cigarette from the case, and put the rest Return the rest to Stephens.

"Keep it, we have a lot on board." Stephens didn't mean to insult Red Bobby, but really wanted to do something for Red Bobby.

"Ha, I know, you Nyasaland are indeed very powerful, many of the things we have here are produced by you Nyasaland, these shoes on my feet are—" Reed Bobby looked very Satisfied with the quality of the shoe.

Gunshots could be heard faintly in the distance, it was really not a good place to chat.
