Expedition to Europe

The vicious incident that happened in Chiang Mai was not an isolated case. At the same time, such things happened frequently in ten provinces in northern Siam and were staged everywhere.

Incidents of this type all have several things in common. The victim must be British and the perpetrator must be a local Siamese. As for the promoters who played a key role in the incident, no one knows where they are from.

Suffering such a large-scale attack, the British responded very quickly. They immediately removed two Indian divisions from Burma and entered Siam. While protecting the British, they also tried to restore normal social order.

Two divisions, about 30,000 people, sounds like a lot, but when allocated to ten provinces in northern Siam, it is still a bit stretched.

The British also wanted to mobilize more people, but in the overall environment of shrinking military forces, the British did not have much troops to mobilize. Even with India's huge population base, it would not help.

To be honest, Indians are still very important in the process of Britain's global colonization. Although Britain's national strength is strong, its population base is still not large enough. Indians just make up for the shortcomings of the British, acting as accomplices of the British and following the British Travel all over the world.

No wonder India is called the most dazzling jewel in the British crown.

The Indians who had just entered Siam still maintained the arrogance they had when they were stationed in Myanmar. Even if they were dogs, they had to be stylish dogs.

The situation in Siam was still different from that in Myanmar. Soon, those Indians fully realized the specific differences.

In Chiang Mai Prefecture, the governor has voluntarily resigned after the arrival of the British. What is now controlling Chiang Mai is a temporary order committee. After the British, Lanfang and France agree on the distribution method for Siam, then the British will officially Stationed officials.

This temporary order committee was naturally composed of a group of pro-British Siamese people. Before the Chinese left, this group of people was economically suppressed by the Chinese and basically had no future. The Chinese moved away from Chiang Mai as a whole. , this group of people finally found an opportunity to come forward, so they carried out the British orders without any compromise.

Against this background, after a regiment from Myanmar entered the city of Chiang Mai, they lived in the Chiang Mai military camp in a grand manner.

Chiang Mai is the largest province in northern Siam, and it is also the political and economic center of northern Siam. There are more than 2,000 people in a regiment, plus the troops directly under the division headquarters, Chiang Mai Prefecture City There were more than 5,000 Indians, and the entire city of Chiang Mai arrived in one time. There are Indians wearing turbans everywhere. At first glance, people who don’t know the truth think they are in Madrid - no, New Delhi - no, New Delhi is under construction. It has been under construction for ten years and it will take another ten years to build. It will be completed and now the capital of India is Delhi.

There are so many Indians in Chiang Mai, and Chiang Mai people have to provide food, drink, diarrhea and sleep. Coupled with the weird hygiene habits of Indians, it is more appropriate for the city of Chiang Mai to be renamed "Smelly Mai".

However, people in Chiang Mai now have no scruples about complaining about the hygiene habits of Indians. They want to meet all the requirements of Indians and provide the most complete logistical services for these Indian soldiers, including food, clothes, fruits, and - women. .

It’s easy to find food, clothes, and so on. The Indians don’t come here naked. They can’t share it for a while and they can’t die. Life is really difficult without women. You know, in Myanmar, there is an official brothel next to the Indian military camp. , the kind that provides regular physical examinations, and the "service facilities" can be called complete. Now that they have arrived in Chiang Mai, those Indians naturally want to taste the "wild flowers".

Therefore, there are really a lot of Indians wandering around the entire city of Chiang Mai. These Indians have just received two months of military pay before going out, and it is not the rupee with little purchasing power, but the pound with strong purchasing power. This makes the Indians Extremely popular.

Under the amiable surface, it was not all gentleness. On the day of entering Chiang Mai, during the roll call in the evening, a British officer from the Indian garrison called the roll call and was shocked to find that someone stayed up all night.

The Indians had just arrived in Chiang Mai, so even if they were new, they would not be bothered to stay up all night, so the military officers of each battalion and company reported their reports one after another. Finally, the total number of people staying up at night exceeded a hundred.

This is definitely not an isolated incident.

The Supreme Commander of the Indian Army, Sir Lauren Milne, immediately realized that Chiang Mai was a hostile city to the Indians, so starting from that night, Chiang Mai began martial law, and a large number of soldiers moved overnight to carry out military control of Chiang Mai. A sweeping search was conducted to find the missing soldiers.

Without much effort, the bodies of the missing soldiers were discovered one after another in every corner of Chiang Mai. Regardless of whether these soldiers were armed or not, they were now stripped naked, including their clothes, shoes and even the gold teeth in their mouths. They were not spared, and traces of torture before death were found on many corpses. This is really intolerable.

After pulling all the corpses back to the military camp, Sir Lauren Milne looked at the 120 corpses and said with a gloomy face to Wangchai Chiang Mai, the chairman of the interim committee: "Find those people, otherwise I will leave Chiang Mai." Just capture all 1,200 people and kill them all as a burial for my soldiers!”

Sir Lauren Milne had reason to be angry. On the first day of arriving in Chiang Mai, he lost an entire company without any fighting. This was unacceptable. A more serious hidden danger was that these soldiers carried weapons with them when they left the barracks. They basically carried the latest Lee Enfield rifles. If these rifles fell into the hands of those who were hostile to the British, the serious consequences could be imagined.

Wangchai Chiang Mai was a standard Siamese nobleman. Only nobles could add the name of the city to their names, but this noble identity did not play any role when facing the British. If Indians were dogs to the British, those Siamese who defected to the British were another. Even purebred dogs with more noble bloodlines were just dogs after all.

Wangchai Chiangmai did not dare to neglect Sir Lauren Milne's anger, so those little hooligans in Chiangmai and prisoners in the prison were unlucky. Even if they were not guilty of death, they were handed over to the British as props to appease the British anger. After executing more than 300 "criminals" in one go, Sir Lauren Milne's anger was finally temporarily appeased.

After the first day of "showing off one's power", the Indians learned a profound lesson. From then on, the Indians no longer dared to sneak out of the barracks in two or three people. Unless it was a large-scale operation, the Indians would hide in the barracks and feel at ease as "protected animals".

Facts have proved that the safety of large-scale operations cannot be guaranteed.

Three days later, Sir Lauren Milne received another piece of bad news. An Indian army unit was attacked by unidentified people in the suburbs of Chiang Mai. This time it was a fully equipped company that was in the process of carrying out a mission and was not completely defenseless, but the result was no different. This company was also annihilated.

Good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes alone. Just after the Indian army company was attacked, an even more shocking news came out. A Siamese named Puchana organized a unit called the "Chiang Mai Freedom Army" to openly resist the rule of the British.
