C2330 Night Assault Customs building (1/2)

In the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, the English even used the slogan that killing an Irishman was tantamount to killing a dog. This showed how serious the conflict between the peoples was and how cruel the war was.

In the seventeenth century, after Ke Lunweier came to power, this pious Puritan personally led an army to Ireland. In that massacre, more than four hundred thousand Irish died a violent death, and the entire Irish race only had a population of a million and a half.

The war had reduced the population by almost a third, which showed how evil English was. There were conflicts not only between colonization and colonization, there were even conflicts between sects. There had been a war between the Catholics and the Protestantism for almost a hundred years, and the continental Europe had lost a lot of blood in that era.

After Ke Lunweier's expedition, Britain's rule over Ireland reached a historical limit. Many cruel policies started from that time.

In order to settle the military arrears and the claims of the British bourgeoisie, the British Parliament confiscated and auctioned 11 million acres of Ireland's entire 20 million acres of arable land. More than half of the land had changed owners, and the Irish had suddenly turned from their former landowner class into the tenants.

The annexation of the land became more and more serious. In 1648, the Irish Catholics still owned 59% of the entire Irish land, and by 1751, they had only 5% of the entire Irish land.

The land on which they depended was taken away, and the other rights to existence were denied. They did not have the right to vote; they could not employ more than two apprentices; they could not go abroad to study; they could not apply for degrees and scholarships at universities; they could not hold public office, jurors, lawyers, or teachers; they could not attend Parliament; they could not purchase land; and even the value of their personal property was restricted; for example, they could not own horses worth more than five pounds.

How was this a national integration? This was simply a cruel punishment for the pagan.

Do you think this is the end? Let the Irish entire race become the tenants of the English and let them go? Don't be naive. The British are still waiting for their cruel ways.

Ireland was banned from exporting goods abroad, and industries, such as the once developed wool industry, were destroyed and completely reduced to agriculture. Worse, this agricultural status is even subsidiary.

In order to ensure the food supply needed for its own industrial development, the UK has taken complete control of Ireland's grain exports. Most of the barley, wheat, oats and other food has to be supplied to the UK, while Irish farmers have to rely on high-yielding and cheap potatoes.

Don't ask stupid questions about why they don't eat meatloaf. Poor Irish don't have the cash to pay taxes to the British. They have to pay taxes to the British on wheat, barley, oats, and other mainstream food.

One could imagine that only potatoes were left to eat, so the Irish were not born to eat potatoes. They were forced to do so by hunger, and they had no choice but to eat potatoes.

It was the Irish's overdependence on a single crop that made a common crop disease suddenly become the Great Famine of the island.

From this one can see the English hand, the war is only supplementary, what really kills the Irish future is the business, the layer upon layer of shackles of the commercial blockade policy, the customs is the British cut off the Irish and the world's important tool.

You Irishmen can't do business with the world alone. You can't make a single coin from the outside world, and you can't enjoy every grain or leaf from the outside world.

Poverty will completely destroy this people, make your numbers less and less, more and more marginalized, and eventually disappear completely into the river of history.

The Customs building had already become an explosive point of hatred between the Irish. Their hunger and poverty originated from here, when the mercenaries used their incendiary bombs to blast open the doors of the Customs building, the Irish who were sent out of the slums had completely gone mad.

Customs building has been ignited! The British can't stop it! Charge in! Kill all English s! ”
