"President, the British army surrendered!" Liu Kangtian's excited voice choked up. Although he had only fought for twelve days, these twelve days were even more tiring than in the Korean battlefield. The pressure of the British army was completely different from the Japanese pirate group and the rebels who were taking cold weapons in North Korea.
Hot weapons wars are about burning money, fighting for strength, and logistics. On this island, both sides almost determine the outcome in one battle. Without strong logistics support for long-term combat, winning or losing is a matter of a shot.
Just like fucking a woman, it would be so ruthless if you fuck her. If you don’t fuck her, it would be so ruthless.
Of course, the British army is a woman.
In the end, it was not enough to resist the brave and unyielding Chinese army.
After listening to the 6-year-old call, the cute president was unable to calm down. Special Mom, what it took a hundred years to do in later generations, I took two years to do, regain Hong Kong, Hong Kong was completely in the hands of the Chinese army!
"Accept their surrender and let the British army lay down their weapons! Announce all over Hong Kong that those who have private weapons will destroy the nine clans!" President Meng gave an order from a very feudal ruler.
"Yes! President." 6 Kangtian hung up the phone happily. Although 6 Kangtian was so tired that he was exhausted, he was happy.
Princess Katrina Kaif excitedly held the cute president's hand, "President, we won. Such a large urban agglomeration has come to our hands. It is much better here than Danzhou."
The cute president smiled slightly, "It's better than Danzhou, but Danzhou is still our capital. Ω∫ Please read the book W÷wΩW∮. ∫QingKanShu.cC”
Princess Katrina Kaif nodded excitedly, "I want it, I want it, I belong to the president, and I belong to our country."
Princess Jie looked at the Hong Kong made up of modern Western buildings, and felt mixed feelings. Princess Jie was happy for the cute president, but she didn't want to show it. At the same time, the major military victory of the cute president cast a bigger shadow in Princess Jie's heart, worried that the cute president would be hard to turn back on the road to anti-Qing from now on!
The Qing court spent more than 30 years trying to recover Hong Kong, but even Mao was not caught. However, the cute CEO did all this in just twelve days, which shocked Princess Jie's heart.
The cute president looked at Princess Jie who couldn't tell, and smiled slightly, "What? Is there anything I want to say?"
Gege Jie snorted softly, "So many people have died, what's there to say?"
The cute president officially moved into the Hong Kong Governor's Office.
The cute CEO is really full of emotions this time. In modern times, before he was reborn and traveled through time, he wanted to go to Hong Kong to have fun after dying. But he was helpless and had no money. Now he has become the master of the Hong Kong Governor's Office. This makes the cute CEO feel uncomfortable.
The Governor's Office of Hong Kong is the Concierge House of Hong Kong. The Concierge House is located on Alibi Road, Mid-mountain, Central, Hong Kong Island. It is the official residence of the Governor of Hong Kong. At the beginning of the completion of the Concierge House, no tall buildings that you can see today have been built nearby, so you can enjoy the harbor scenery.
The formerly known as the Governor's Office of Hong Kong, construction started in 1851 and was completed in 1855.
The Concierge House of Hong Kong belongs to the George-era architecture in the United Kingdom, with a strong colonial style. It introduces large windows and balconies suitable for subtropical areas in British architecture. ∮Please read the book Ww∮WΩ.

At 8 p.m. on January 2, after dinner, the cute president sat upright in the office of the Hong Kong Governor's Office, accepting the surrender of Hong Kong Governor Sir Kennedy and British Commander Major General Walker Wolf, and the British also signed the surrender letter.
This means that the scale of the Chinese and British troops was huge, with more than 10,000 soldiers killed and more than 100,000 ordinary people officially came to an end.
Kennedy, the Irish, the seventh governor of the United Kingdom in Hong Kong.
When he was young, he served in the army, and later abandoned the army and entered politics. He served as an administrator in Ireland. He was later transferred to the British Colonial Department and served as the governor of Zambia twice.
He also worked in Canada and Australia. Sir Feng was appointed as the seventh governor of Hong Kong on April 16, 1872. At that time, the situation in Hong Kong had a certain turnaround with the opening of the Suitu Canal, and the use of telegraphs and new steamers. However, as the Qing government continued to implement the policy of "blocking Hong Kong", it greatly interfered with Hong Kong's sailing trade. He appointed three members of the Chairman of the Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce, including Lairi, and three others to form a committee to investigate the matter and submit an investigation report. Later, he made a suggestion to the Colonial Department, demanding that the Qing government withdraw the customs station overseas in Hong Kong. After negotiations between China and the UK, the Qing government agreed to the Hong Kong request.
After the 1860s, the Chinese in Hong Kong increased, and wealthy mainlanders continued to come to Hong Kong. Due to their ability to operate, their economic power has greatly expanded, which completely overwhelmed Western businessmen.
He is very good at appeaseing Chinese people, saying that he can meet with Chinese business representatives and listen to opinions at any time. Whenever there is a celebration, he invites Chinese gentry and businessmen to attend. He also encourages government officials to learn Chinese, set up examination committees, and issue certificates to European officials who learn Chinese.
In order to solve the quality of the police force at that time, he proposed to recruit more Chinese people to join the police force and increase the police salary. At the same time, he also implemented a policy of deporting criminals to maintain social order in Hong Kong.
In terms of municipal construction, during his tenure, a new water pipe was built along the coast, and it was planned to divert water from the new pond located in Datan to the city; three lighthouses were built on the waterway close to Victoria Harbor; land reclamation was made in the West District, and named Kennedy Town.
He paid attention to the exhibition of public education, and a group of children were given the opportunity to enroll. During his tenure, he also approved the HSBC Bank 1 yuan banknote, which was the beginning of the banknotes in Hong Kong Bank.
In order to provide medical services to more residents, a new hospital was proposed, but it was put on hold due to funding issues.
In order to maintain stability, and because this Sir Kennedy is indeed capable, the cute President sincerely invited the Hong Kong Governor Sir Kennedy to help the transition.
If Sir Kennedy returns to Britain like this, he will have nothing left, but if he agrees to the cute president like this, he will not want to. On the one hand, it is from the perspective of the country, which is a treason, and on the other hand, it does not know whether the Chinese army can gain a foothold in Hong Kong.
"I'm sorry, Mr. President, I don't think I can promise you that my country will not be able to tolerate me." Sir Kennedy replied to the cute president.
The cute president smiled faintly, "You don't have to promise me immediately. I know it's hard for you to accept it, but you have to know that you just help me manage and be my consultant. I didn't ask you to continue to serve as the governor of Hong Kong. What you do can benefit society and give full play to your management skills, that's great."
Sir Kennedy looked at the cute little CEO and felt in a mess. He couldn't figure out whether there was such a child prodigy in the world? In fact, Sir Kennedy and most of the Hong Kong residents have long heard of the name of the cute CEO. Now the word "Cute CEO" is even more of everyone's nightmare.
"Thank you, President Meng for your kindness. I think I will discuss it with my wife." Sir Kennedy said with difficulty.
The cute president nodded, "Of course, I just made a suggestion and didn't mean to force you. If you become my consultant, your salary will be three times that of the previous one!"
Princess Jie listened in surprise as Xuan Yuemeng spoke English with the British, and didn't know what Xuan Yuemeng didn't know.
Both the cute president and Princess Katrina Kaif speak Chinese, and only speak English when they directly talk to foreigners. This is the first time that Princess Jie heard the cute president's English.
"You president can still talk about foreign languages?" Jie Ge Ge asked Qiu Yun softly.
Qiu Yun smiled indifferently: "Not only do you know, but you say it well, and you can write it."
Princess Jie nodded and curled her lips, "Your president knows how to speak foreign languages, and Princess Katrina Kaif knows how to speak Chinese."
That night, the Hong Kong Ta Kung Pao surrendered the British to various books and magazines.
The Meng President changed Ta Kung Pao to Huacui Evening News, and the title of the Governor's Office of Hong Kong remained unchanged. Everything was changed according to the system of China. Originally, the laws of China almost copied British laws, and there was no problem of violation.
What is the biggest problem?
