Chapter 859 Landing, Capture, Repatriation

However, Robert's calculations were in vain, because he found that those Americans were invited as "guests" by the East Africans. Looking at the serious-looking East African militia on Lihue Street, Robert could only go home feeling depressed.

At this time, on the sea, Rogge and his party also discovered that something was wrong.

Charles frowned and said, "Mr. Rogge, have you noticed anything wrong?"

Rogge pretended to feel the same and replied: "I also feel something strange at sea today. I just can't remember what went wrong for a while."

"It's a ship. In the past, although Kauai was not closely connected with several other islands, ships could be seen, but until now we have not seen even a ship," said Charles.

Next, as we got closer and closer to Kauai Island, Charles' mood became worse and worse, because there were no fishing boats near Kauai Island today, which was too suspicious.

"Mr. Rogge, was there anything unusual on the island before you left Kauai?" Charles asked.

Rogge did not answer directly, but asked, "Abnormal? Mr. Charles, did you find something wrong?"

"So far, we haven't seen even a single fishing boat, which is so eerie," Charles said. "I'm worried there might be something going on on Kauai that we don't know about."

Rogge said "worryingly": "I didn't find anything wrong before I left. Could it be that I'm overly worried?"

Charles thought for a while and said, "Maybe, but considering the situation on Kauai, even if something big happens, there shouldn't be much danger."

Charles believes that in Hawaii, especially Kauai, which is so close to Honolulu on Oahu, no one should dare to cause trouble under the noses of Americans.

Soon after, the ship could finally see the outline of Kauai. Although no outgoing ships were found, there were no major changes on the shore, so Charles ordered the ship to continue sailing towards the Port of Lihue.

On the island, the East Africans naturally discovered this unexpected ship. Since the port was closed, Lihue has been unable to enter or exit, but only small boats are passing by, while the ship on the other side is very big.

The most conspicuous thing is the flag hanging on the ship, which looks similar to the British Union Jack. In 1795, King Kamehameha I unified the Hawaiian Islands and established the Kingdom of Hawaii. Because he admired the British, he voluntarily used the Union Flag. flag.

The Union Jack flag has always been the national flag of the Kingdom of Hawaii. In its previous life, this flag was also the state flag of the state of Hawaii in the United States and has been in use for more than 300 years.

Therefore, the Republic of Hawaii also follows the flag of the Kingdom of Hawaii, but East Africans naturally do not know the details.

When I saw the flag of the Kingdom of Hawaii, I subconsciously felt a little guilty. After all, this was a coup and separatism on someone else’s territory, but I quickly realized that it was wrong! Hasn’t the Kingdom of Hawaii been subverted by the Americans? So this should be an American ship.

Soon, after the ship docked, the thoughts of the East African officers and soldiers were further confirmed. A group of tall and thick people came down, with red ribbons tied around their necks. They were the American militiamen of the Hawaiian Islands.

Charles also led the people ashore in a swaggering manner, but they were soon dumbfounded. After a while, a large number of people appeared from all sides of the pier and surrounded them.

"lay down your weapon!"

Facing the ferocious East African National Defense Force, the American militiamen did not dare to resist. Nonsense, the opposite side looked like regular troops. How could the National Guard, who were not even considered a brand, fight against the opponent? Those with sharp eyes even saw the black machine guns. Already targeting one's own side.

The disguised Rogge was also on the side, shouting in surprise: "We are American citizens, don't kill us."

Looking at the cowardly Rogge, the corner of Charles's mouth twitched. He really embarrassed the Americans. Although it was not honorable to surrender, the form was stronger than the people. Not only were the people on the opposite side more numerous, but the weapons were also superior. Naturally, he had to disarm first. Look what happened, and Roger, the “disgrace to the American people,” was close to pissing his pants, which made Charles extremely disgusted with this “American businessman.”

And what Rogge wants is this effect. Now that he is a victim, naturally he cannot stand with East Africa, otherwise his career will be interrupted.

…

The second day.

More than 900 Americans, including Roger the spy, were deported back to Honolulu from East Africa.

"How is this going?"

"During our coup, the East Africans invaded Kauai and established what was called the Kingdom of North Hawaii," Charles said with a grimace.

"What?"

“How dare East Africans do that!”

"..."

Charles' answer caused an uproar among everyone. Originally, the Republic of Hawaii had already regarded the entire islands as its own, but someone picked peaches. This was simply too irritating.

"What is the strength of the East Africans on the island? Is it a colonial group or an army? How many are there?" asked Sanford, President of the Republic of Hawaii.

Charles: "It's the East African Defense Force. I can't mistake their ugly clothes."

In this era, the military uniforms of various countries were very colorful, and the drab gray military uniforms in East Africa without much modification were synonymous with ugliness in Charles' eyes.

"Where are their numbers!"

Charles shook his head and said: "I'm not sure, but what I saw was probably more than a thousand people, and they were equipped with machine guns and other weapons. They looked like elite troops from East Africa, and they obviously had murderous intent."

At this time, Sanders suddenly remembered that Roger was from Kauai, and he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Roger, why didn't you notice that East Africa suddenly invaded Kauai this time?" Roger said with a sad face: "Mr. President, I am just a small businessman. How could I have thought that East Africa would be interested in a small island thousands of miles away? You can ask everyone about this." The everyone Roger mentioned was the American businessmen expelled from East Africa. They were released by East Africa together with Charles' team. "Mr. Roger is right. There were indeed many people with yellow faces on the island before, but there are so many Chinese and Japanese in Hawaii, including local natives, who are all of the same skin color. Who would have thought that East Africans were mixed in, and the East Africans seemed to have come from other places on the island. They should have landed somewhere on the island and then captured Kauai in one fell swoop." "Mr. President, now we are driven out by the East Africans, you have to make the decision for us! Our property is still in the hands of East Africa!" Roger complained loudly on the side. Other American businessmen also hurriedly asked for help. Hearing the chattering noise, Sanford was overwhelmed. He, the president of Hawaii, had just taken office and encountered such bad luck. Where could he seek justice? As for helping them regain their property, Sanford could only make excuses to delay. After all, the East Africans had troops on Kauai Island, and no one knew whether the East Africans would take advantage of the situation and go south to seize the entire Hawaiian Islands. So at this time, Sanford first considered his own safety: "Hurry up and ask for help from the country. We must let the government negotiate with East Africa. This is no longer something we can participate in." The government Sanford mentioned was naturally the US government, and the fact that he was a puppet president of the Republic of Hawaii was confirmed.
