History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 367 Prohibition, action!
Seeing the governor's decisiveness, Jian Baoning couldn't help but twitch his eyelids, and immediately got up to salute: "Yes, sir!"

The governor didn't have the patience to talk to him any more, he waved his hand and said, "Go back."

"Goodbye, sir!" Jian Baoning yelled again. Fang turned and left the office. He was completely disappointed in the governor. It seemed that replacing the chief of the disciplined forces was an unchangeable policy, and he would rather pay the price of social unrest.

As far as the governor is concerned, political achievements are more important than anything else.

"A police commissioner dares to use force to threaten the governor's decision,"

Ge Hongliang looked at Jian Baoning's back, his eyes were full of vigilance, and he raised his hand to greet the secretary: "Let the person in charge of the Military Intelligence Department come to see me."

"Yes."

"Lord Governor."

The secretary agreed softly.

Jian Baoning returned to Tai Kwun's office, called the director-level officer and He Dingxian into a conference room, untied his gun bag in public, put down his documents, and said: "Sir Gordon, sir Ge, sir Kunxian, sir He , the governor's office ordered."

"The five of us are temporarily dismissed and are on standby. According to the regulations, the powers of the police force will be acted by the deputy at the next level."

"Sir Yifu, the Chief of Police will leave it to you."

Yifu, Skeming and other colonial bureaucrats all changed their faces. Some secretly delighted, some looked shocked, but Gordon, Ge Bai, Kunxian, and He Dingxian were all prepared, sighed, and released their documents and guns one after another. On the desktop, said: "Yes, sir!"

Seeing this, Yifu hurriedly said: "Sir Jian, the triads are planning to commit crimes recently, the social situation is unstable, and the Ministry of Operations is needed..."

"Isuke sir."

Jian Baoning interrupted it, and said solemnly: "Do you dare to disobey the governor's order?"

"Ugh."

Yifu sighed.

Ge Bai smiled and said, "With Sir Yifu's prestige, it's not a problem to act as the acting police chief. If he does a good job, maybe he can become a regular."

"Ge sir."

Yifu's expression was serious, and he said in a solemn voice: "I will write to the Governor's Office, so that the Governor can consider restoring Jian sir's power as soon as possible."

"Ha ha."

Ge Bai smirked twice, and instead said, "Call me if you have anything to do."

Immediately, Jian Baoning, Gordon, Kun Xian, and He Dingxian all got up, walked out of the meeting room quickly, and gave up the command of the police force.However, the command power of the police force can be transferred, but some powers cannot be transferred.

in the corridor.

He Dingxian walked with ease, took out a cigarette, and said: "Everyone, sir, let's go to the teahouse to drink tea together on the night of the tenth, and watch the good show organized by the triad society."

"of course."

Gordon smiled and said, "I've been looking forward to it for a long time."

Jian Baoning and Kun nodded first.

Ge Bailang said: "I'll bring you a box of good tea."

Taiping Mountain.

The person in charge of the Military Intelligence Department, Colonel Jia De, was wearing a green military uniform and a hat. He opened the folder and said, "According to the informant's report, the triads headed by Number Gang and Xin Yi'an are organizing a festival riot on October [-]."

"The number gang's overseas account has received some activity funds from Taiwan Island, and is secretly manufacturing Molotov cocktails, steel pipes, and banners."

"At that time, the customs will arrest criminals as an excuse to ask the Hong Kong government to release relevant personnel."

Ge Hongliang was wearing a suit, holding a cigar, breathing white mist, standing by the desk and listening intently.

"sir."

"Whether to let the customs release the criminals in advance to reduce the action sentiment of the triads, the Military Intelligence Department can cooperate with the Hong Kong government to carry out activities, arrest some major elements, confiscate their dangerous goods, and then use both soft and hard tactics to buy some concessions and divide the Chinese."

Jiade put together the documents and gave a pertinent suggestion.

Ge Hongliang immediately refused: "NO!"

"The governor of Hong Kong can be lenient to the citizens, but he must not be lenient to the lower-level departments. The release of the people detained by the customs will not only make the customs lose confidence, but it will also not get the triads to make concessions. This incident is not only the Chinese, the Hong Kong Social conflicts between governments, and the police force behind the scenes, any compromise will only lead to more excessive demands."

He sees this very clearly.

Jia De didn't answer anymore.

Ge Hongliang continued: "According to what you said, the Military Intelligence Department will take some actions to reduce the destructive power of the triads in advance, but the arrest of members must not involve the core, otherwise, it will arouse the collective resistance of the Chinese."

"Yes, sir!"

Jiade stood at attention and saluted.

Ge Hongliang said again: "Keep an eye on the whereabouts of He Dingxian, Jian Baoning, Ge Bai and others. If I need to, I will arrest them all with a single phone call."

"Yes!"

"Sir!"

Jad yelled.

"All right."

"Work hard, I will transfer you out of the Military Intelligence Department and find a better position." Ge Hongliang made a political promise, sat back in his chair, bowed his head and began to process the documents.Jiade saluted again and walked out of the office unsmiling. Whether he took the governor's promise to heart is unknown, but his intelligence ability is beyond doubt. Molotov cocktails, cut steel rods, machetes, daggers and other weapons.

At the same time, more than 20 Xinji members were arrested, and two staff members were brought into the Intelligence Department for interrogation.

This resolute gesture had the effect of knocking mountains and shaking tigers, causing turmoil in the world for a while, but soon, the governor of Hong Kong wanted to crack down on Chinese festivals and strictly prohibited the rumors of Double Ten celebrations.Ge Hongliang communicated with the Commissioner of Customs, the Commissioner of Fire Services, the Commissioner of Corrections, the Acting Commissioner of the Police Force, the Auxiliary Medical Service and other disciplinary departments in advance, requiring all disciplinary departments in Hong Kong to enter a state of alert during the Double Tenth Festival, cancel all vacations, and be on standby 24 hours a day .

After waiting for the collective response of the disciplinary department, the governor was very satisfied with his influence in Hong Kong governor's ten years in power, signed and issued a curfew order on October [-], and formally ordered the entire territory of Hong Kong to Citizens, on October [-]th, it is forbidden to fly all flags and banners with political symbols, and to post all posters and advertisements with political meaning except the flag of the Commonwealth of Nations, the Royal Flag, and the colonial flag of Hong Kong Island.

At the same time, celebrations are not allowed throughout the day, parades are not allowed, and people are not allowed to go out after [-] p.m. Otherwise, they will be arrested according to the disciplinary regulations in the "Emergency Law", and they will be detained and fined.

October tenth.

Early in the morning.

The Chinese police sirs from the military uniform group, the criminal group, the anti-mafia group, and the three major departments of the police force all went to the equipment room to sign and receive the equipment according to the requirements of their superiors as soon as they arrived at the mission station, and dispatched them to the streets in full armor , intersections, and maintaining order.

Explosion-proof response team, serious crime team, narcotics investigation department, anti-corruption room and other departments.

The police stations in each district are on duty with guns, ready to serve as a backup force for emergencies.

Customs, the Correctional Services Department, the Fire Department, and the Auxiliary Medical Service have also received orders to put on an air of going all out and make full preparations. It seems that all disciplined forces in Hong Kong are ready to arrest criminals at any time.

The day.

morning.

Central, Chao Fu Restaurant.

According to the usual practice in previous years, the shopkeeper instructed the staff to hang the blue flag on the roof of the building. The staff who hung the flag was a little frightened, and held the flag and said: "Shopkeeper, the Hong Kong government expressly prohibits the celebration of Double Tenth. There are so many policemen on the street. If you are arrested up"

"Do not worry."

The shopkeeper said to himself: "Sir He has booked the entire restaurant at night, no matter how many policemen there are, they dare not come to the restaurant to pick up the flag."

"Ok."

The man pouted, climbed up the ladder, and hung the flag.

Hong Kong Island's repeated announcements and curfew orders have indeed cast an unusual color on this year's Double Tenth Festival.Many Chinese bosses and immigrants from the mainland have realized that the Hong Kong government seems to be not joking, but to severely eliminate the atmosphere of Double Ten celebrations.

But if what the ghost says is nothing, it will underestimate the integrity of the Chinese in Hong Kong Island.Not to mention that many people really believe in the Three People's Principles, just some factory owners related to Taiwan Island, and veterans of World War II, retired military officers and others.

The blue flag will still be hoisted to show loyalty!
Show your backbone!

The police officers in various districts may have seen it, but they all kept silent, as if there was a tacit understanding. Under the leadership of the detectives and inspectors, they pretended to be deaf and dumb. Even many ghost inspectors hurriedly bowed their heads when they saw the blue flag, Don't ask if you smoke.

This kind of matter involves ideology and political struggle, and people at the bottom of the matter are clear about it, but unless someone forces it, otherwise, individuals dare not take the initiative to provoke, and those who can close their eyes will never open their eyes.Because history has proved that the human mind is common, and the ideological weapon is the most advanced weapon.

Once it comes to ideological struggle, it is very likely that one person will lead thousands of people, and ten thousand people will become hundreds of thousands. At that time, no matter how big a backer he has, a small employee may be burned to death, and no one will care if he dies.People are not scary, but people who pull out flags and slogans are very scary!
However, many Chinese will avoid getting involved in similar disputes. It can be seen with the naked eye that this year’s Double Tenth Festival celebrations have almost disappeared, such as lion dance teams, dragon dance teams, etc., and almost no one dares to take orders and appear on the streets.

Ordinary merchants and citizens rarely hang flags in their homes.

morning.

nine o'clock.

Kowloon, Sham Shui Po, Cheung Sha Wan, Lee Cheng Uk Tu Chi District.

This is an area where wooden houses have just been bulldozed and five-storey Tuzhi buildings were built. There are a large number of new immigrants and veterans of the former dynasty. During the process of bulldozing the wooden houses and building Tuzhi buildings, an Eastern Han period tombs.

When it was discovered, the ancient tomb had already been robbed and destroyed many times. The Hong Kong government designated it as a historic site and kept it permanently. Glass baffles were set up for free viewing.

At this time, an officer from the Tuzhi District came to inspect Li Zheng's house and found that every house had a blue badge hanging on the door, and there was a flagpole on the roof of each building with a blue flag hanging.Under the coercion of Guilo's boss, the clerk had to knock on the door to warn, and ordered the residents to take off the flag and hand over the relevant badges and items.

Comparable to public housing officers and community affairs offices, the clerks of the precincts are the lowest-level administrative agencies of the Hong Kong government, similar to the community sub-district offices, and serve as the duty of patrolling the grassroots for the Hong Kong government.Today, the Secretary of Administration dispatched the offices of various districts in Hong Kong to go to the bottom to check the situation of the Double Tenth Festival.

The person in charge of the office is often a ghost, and the staff working below are mostly Chinese.

The Chinese employee knocked on the doors of several houses but did not respond. He simply walked up to the roof, unloaded the blue flag, and took off the large "Double Ten" badge on the outer wall of the building on the sixth floor of Block G with his colleagues. Take the collected badges and flags back to the office area of ​​the office together.

The ghosts and staff of the office were just to complete the tasks of the superiors, but they didn't think about deliberately suppressing the Chinese, and they didn't even call the police to arrest them.It took them more than 20 minutes to disassemble the badge, and no resident raised any opinions during the whole process. But when they moved the things back to the office, less than half an hour later, more than 200 residents gathered at the door of the office. Curse: "Traitor!"

"Ghost!"

"Hand over the flag!"
