Last year, Taiwan Public Television broadcast a historical drama "Scarlo" , the male lead was an American - At that time, the US Consul in Xiamen Li Xiande .
In the play, Li Xiande was beautified into a heroic character, which aroused strong criticism from a group of knowledgeable people on the island.
Charles William Lejendell, Chinese name Li Xiande , originally from French, married Americans and became Americans, and participated in the American Civil War.
1866 he became the US Consul in Xiamen. After the "Rofu Accident", Li Xian was ordered to go to Taiwan. Because his negotiations with the Scarots in the indigenous people of the Langjiao area of Taiwan were successful and he could speak some Taiwanese , it was regarded as a "Taiwan fan".
1872, Li Xiande resigned and then transited to Japan. He provided a large amount of Taiwan intelligence, including maps and photos, to the Japanese who were invading Taiwan at that time.
Then Li Xiande was hired as a consultant, and planned a detailed plan for sending troops and colonization for Japan.
Two years later, Japan sent troops to attack Taiwan's Langqiao indigenous tribes, which was for the Mudan Society incident.
At that time, the indigenous people of Taiwan were guarding the Japanese army many times. However, the Japanese army used fierce artillery fire to cover the Mudan Club, and slaughtered a large number of indigenous people to retaliate and burned down the village.
So, Li Xiande is a sinner from Taiwan.
He had previously negotiated with the indigenous people to reach a peace agreement, but turned around but led the Japanese to attack and kill the indigenous people.
is actually a betrayal and betrayal to the indigenous people.
Now the Taiwanese authorities are promoting such a TV series that distorts history and beautifies betrayers and colonists, which is ulterior motives.
As for Li Xiande, he was later arranged to serve in North Korea by Japan and eventually died in Seoul .
