1850 American Gold Tycoon
Chapter 411: Dongwanlu
Dongwanlu area.
The Lanfang Company's armed forces retreated steadily in the face of the fierce offensive launched by Elvis and the rearmed Chinese resistance company.
In order to avoid being completely annihilated, the Lanfang Company's armed forces who besieged Luyi (Monteladu), the headquarters of Santiaogou Company, hurriedly evacuated Luyi.
The situation in Luyi quickly turned around.
Not only Luyi, but settlements such as Wanna, Xingang, Bageting, and Xinputou that were originally under the control of Lanfang Company also changed hands within half a month.
The allied forces of Elvis and the Chinese Resistance Company swept through the entire West Borneo region in an instant with the force of autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
The Lanfang Company's armed forces, dressed as Green Camp officers, were as vulnerable as the Green Camp soldiers.
Most of the soldiers of Lanfang Company were composed of miners. These miners were deeply dissatisfied with Liu Shoushan's betrayal of the company's interests and his willingness to become the canine teeth of the Dutch.
Except for a small number of soldiers of Liu Shoushan's father-in-law, no one was willing to follow Liu Shoushan all the way to the dark side.
Previously, they were willing to work for Liu Shoushan, but their wives, children, and children were all under the control of the company, so they had no choice.
Seeing that Liu Shoushan's demise is only a matter of time now, Lanfang Company is quickly falling apart.
Wherever the coalition forces passed, the Chinese residents in various settlements almost welcomed the arrival of the coalition forces with the attitude of eating a pot of slurry to welcome the king's division.
Elvis received the teachings of Liang Yao, managed the army very strictly, and the supplies of the coalition forces were relatively sufficient. Therefore, he did not have any conflicts with the residents of the Guangfu settlement, and the relationship between the two parties was very harmonious.
Liu Shanbang arrested the senior management of Lanfang Company and prepared to execute him on the spot. Elvis stepped forward to stop Liu Shanbang's behavior.
"Colonel Elvis! These people are traitors! They will die without mercy!"
Thinking of what the management of Lanfang Company did on a daily basis, Liu Shanbang was overwhelmed.
"If you knew what they did on a daily basis, you would think they deserved what they got today."
"Of course, I don't deny that."
Elvis glanced at the embarrassed Lanfang Company management.
"They do deserve it most, and they must get the justice they deserve, but not now."
Settlements such as Wanna, Xingang, Bageting, and Xinputou have just been recovered, and the hearts of these newly recovered areas are unstable.
Elvis believed that it would be unwise to launch a purge now and put these traitors on trial.
He was just a soldier, not a politician or judge. Elvis was not sure whether the liquidation of these traitors would extend to ordinary people.
Elvis didn't like to do things he wasn't good at.
What's more, Dongwanlu, the headquarters of Lanfang Company, is still under the control of Liu's son-in-law Weng. If Dongwanlu is not captured, his mission will not be completed.
Dongwanlu has been operated by Lanfang Company for seventy or eighty years for several generations, and its defense facilities are relatively complete.
If he attacks hard, his losses will definitely not be small.
The management of Lanfang Company was not useless to Elvis.
The priority is to attack the city and attack the heart. If we can go to Dongwanlu without a fight and hand a complete Dongwanlu into Liang Yao's hands, it will undoubtedly be a perfect ending.
After persuading Liu Shanbang, Elvis turned around and spoke in a deep voice to the management of Lanfang Company.
"I know you have committed many crimes, but now, I am willing to give you a chance to atone for your crimes."
Dongwanlu at this time.
Although the coalition forces have not yet invaded Dongwanlu, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is only a matter of time before the coalition forces attack Dongwanlu. The whole city of Dongwanlu was in panic.
In the main hall of Lanfang Company, the general manager Liu Shoushan, with his braids hanging down, was smoking on the couch by a kerosene lamp.
Next to him were the management of Lanfang Company who were just like him, smoking and making the main office of Lanfang Company a mess.
Liu Shoushan's son-in-law Ye Tingfan packed up the gold and silver and brought his wife to the main hall. He took the pipe from Liu Shoushan's hand and said, "Dad, stop smoking. It's not too late for us to smoke again when we get to Batavia."
I have had the boat ready in Sarawak. We will board the boat from Sarawak and take the boat to Batavia. "
"Batavia? Hahahaha."
After the choking smoke filled the air, the expression on Liu Shoushan's face was unclear whether he was crying or laughing.
Through this thick layer of smoke, Ye Tingfan could only hear Liu Shoushan's self-deprecating laughter.
"Why is dad laughing?" Ye Tingfan asked in confusion.
"My good son-in-law, dad laughs at you for being stupid."
Liu Shoushan laughed wildly, took the pipe from Ye Tingfan's hand and continued to smoke.
"If you don't go to Batavia, why don't you go back to Guangdong? Liang Yao has a very close personal relationship with the governor of Guangdong, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and even the admiral of the Navy. Returning to Guangdong is a dead end," Ye Tingfan said.
At this point, Dongwan Law will definitely not be able to hold on.
Staying in Dongwanlu is a dead end. Ye Tingfan doesn't want to stay in Dongwanlu and wait for death. He wants to continue living.
Ye Tingfan bears the blood debt of the Chinese Resistance Company, and the Chinese Resistance Company will definitely not be able to spare him.
Which of the leaders of the resisting company, including Wang Jia and Liu Shanbang, didn't want to tear him into pieces?
Unable to hold on to the laws of Dongwan and unable to return to his hometown in Guangdong, the only way left for him to survive was Batavia.
He still has some value to the Dutch, and only Liang Yao's mortal enemy, the Dutch, can provide him with protection.
Ye Tingfan believed that as long as he arrived in Batavia, he would be safe.
No matter how powerful Liang Yao is, can he still go to Batavia to capture him?
Liu Shoushan disagreed. Liu Shoushan believed that Batavia was not safe.
After the Dutch-Chinese War ended, the two sides were bound to negotiate.
If the Dutch win in the end, it's okay to say that Lanfang Company is the victorious party, and the lives of Lanfang Company's senior executives will naturally be worry-free.
But if the Dutch lose, they, the senior management of Lanfang Company, will also be put on the negotiation table as bargaining chips for both parties.
Not to mention in Batavia, even in Amsterdam, once Liang Yao and the Dutch have reached an agreement, the Dutch will hand them over to Liang Yao.
The value of their father-in-law and son-in-law to the Dutch was that they controlled the Lanfang Company and could maintain rule for the Dutch in West Borneo, where power was intertwined.
Once Lanfang Company is destroyed, they will no longer be at the helm of Lanfang Company, and they will naturally have no value to the Dutch.
The Dutch may not accept them.
On this point, Liu Shoushan, who has been working hard on the island of Borneo for decades, has a clear mind.
But Liu Shoushan did not intend to tell Ye Tingfan this. Liu Shoushan needed Ye Tingfan to attract the attention of the Chinese Resistance Company and Liang Yao for him.
Liu Shoushan sat cross-legged on the couch, holding a pipe in his hand, and said to Ye Tingfan solemnly.
"You just passed away like this? Will the Dutch accept you?"
"What does dad mean?" Ye Tingfan didn't understand what he meant.
