269 Pierre the Wicked
The fact that there were negotiators among the French was a very bad thing in the eyes of Xiao Lotian and Paul, because it proved that the enemy was no longer an ordinary group of soldiers, and that the high-ranking officials of the French side had taken control of the situation and that the situation had escalated.
Not only that, in Xiao Letian's telescope, in the north of them, patches of smoke and dust were rising, and you could guess by looking at the speed of the smoke and dust that a large number of cavalry must be coming to reinforce them, and the French had already guessed their escape route.
"Prime Minister, all plans must be changed, it is no longer realistic to go north, this group of people is trying their best to press us to the southeast, once the northern encirclement net reaches our east, that is, directly in front of our march, we will really become rats in a cage......"
Paul's pessimistic judgment was justified, and the French encirclement forces, after surviving the initial chaos, under the direct command of Pierre, had already shown their due elite qualities.
After all, France is an old empire, and its heavy talent base is not blown out, and its national strength at this time is far superior to that of Prussia, and it can only choose to sneak attack and not clash head-on against this kind of country.
What's more, with top intelligence officers like Pierre in charge, Xiao Letian's retreat has been completely cut off.
At this time, Xiao Letian didn't say a word, his brain was nervously judging the situation, he would not give up easily, in his eyes, any Jedi would have a glimmer of life.
It took a long time for Xiao Le to speak, "Mr. Paul, what should we do with your opinion?"
"I'm very sorry Prime Minister, but now I can only build yì for you to surrender...... No, no, no, the word surrender is not used on you, you are only revealing your true identity to the French government, with your position in East Asia, the French will not embarrass you, once the conflict enters the process of diplomatic negotiations, at least you and the escorts can be safe......"
Xiao Letian frowned and said, "It's not good, if this is the case, the French will never let me go to Prussia, and they will negotiate with Bismarck, my army can only return home in disgrace in the end, and all my plans will be in vain......"
"There's also a big problem, if we surrender to the French, of course I will be able to get diplomatic immunity, and I won't even be held accountable for the sinking of that frigate, after all, they were the ones who fired first...... But what about you? Mr. Paul, the anger of the French will be taken out on you, knowing that the life and death of a spy will never see the light of day..."
Xiao Letian's words moved Paul, and he said with a solemn face, "Thank you for your concern for us, but this is our fate, since we have chosen to survive in the underground world, we have our consciousness, and we are willing to sacrifice our lives for the benefit of Prussia......"
Xiao Lotian sighed and asked, "Do you have any other choice?" Tell me about ......."
"If you are not willing to bow to the French, we will have to break through in the direction of Besançon, which borders Switzerland, and if we can break through to Switzerland, a neutral country, we will naturally have the full support of Prussia, but it is difficult to say whether we will succeed in breaking through......"
Xiao Lotian thought about it carefully, and suddenly smiled, "I feel like we have a third way out...... See the water mill in front of me? I'm going to negotiate with these French people there, and I always have the feeling that these French people seem to have guessed who I am. ”
Paul was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but after thinking about it, he figured it out, "I understand, it is true that in the chase just now, although these French people maintained pressure, they did not fire a single shot, and they were very restrained. I think they can guess that you're a big guy even if they don't know who you are......"
Xiao Lotian and Paul bit their ears for a long time, and then Paul shouted to the pursuers behind him in his fluent French, "French soldiers chasing over, find a general person to come out...... Inside the water mill ahead, a big man from the East wants to negotiate with you......"
"Please stay calm, this negotiation involves the interests of France, it is a very important diplomatic matter, please your soldiers back and keep a distance of 500 meters, so as not to cause misunderstanding between the two sides......"
Paul's shout caused a commotion in the French camp from afar, and a quarrel drifted along with the wind, and then the French soldiers did stop, but the muzzles of the muskets were still aimed at Xiao Lotian and them.
The French were not so stupid and could not have listened to Paul's 500-meter spacing, but the buffer of more than 200 meters was still a bit bit. After about ten minutes, a middle-aged man in a dirty suit walked towards the mill waving a white handkerchief.
"Damn... It's Pierre...... It was Pierre, the gold medal intelligence officer of the French War Office who had been refrigerated for seven years, and it is no wonder that their containment was so accurate..."Paul had devoted his life to the intelligence cause of Prussia, and he knew all too well some of the secrets of France.
"Prime Minister, I'm afraid we really won't be able to pass the test this time, Pierre is a very famous intelligence officer in France, and he is best at finding hidden veins in the intricate intelligence network, if it weren't for his good wine and lust being refrigerated for seven years, I think the level of French intelligence must have been raised by a large margin......"
Xiao Lotian was happy after listening to Pierre's story, did he not expect that the French had become like this in this year? Oh, no, no, no, people call this romantic, that is called the pursuit of perfect love, and the wave understood by Chinese is not the same meaning.
The mill had a lot of straw in storage, and people sat nervously on it and looked out through the cracks in the planks, and everyone's hearts were in their throats, but they didn't expect Xiao Lotian and Paul to laugh out of their mouths.
The tiger girl glared at him fiercely, "What are you laughing at, what's so funny?" After Xiao Lotian briefly told him about Pierre's romance, the three women spat on the ground three times in a row.
"Bah, bah, bah...... What a good thing, it's worth laughing at, these foreign devils don't have a good thing..."
Just as he was scolding, the door of the mill was opened, and Pierre, who was holding a white handkerchief, was brought in by the dragon.
"Oh my God... Is this the three angels? Is this the princess of the East who came out of a fairy tale?" Pierre was completely hopeless, and when he entered the house, he saw the tiger girl and the three of them, and at that moment he felt his heart stop beating.
Xiao Letian was also dumbfounded, he never thought that this big-nosed Frenchman would actually ignore him, the Prime Minister of the East, and strode in front of Hu Niu first, knelt down on one knee and began to talk nonsense.
"Beautiful angel, it is God's guidance that has brought me to see you, can I kiss your hand? Please don't look at me with such amazement, I am not a strange person, I am just a little lamb who is impressed by your charm and charm, please give me the deepest love......"
Paul is also stupid, no wonder this Pierre has been hidden in the snow for seven years, daring to seduce the engaged daughter of the general's family, and now he is attacking the family of the Prime Minister of the East, this thick-skinned even the Europeans can't stand it.
"Translator, hurry up and translate for me...... What do you say when you kneel in front of my daughter-in-law on this dog day?" Xiao Letian became angry all of a sudden, he was too familiar with the light in his big nose and eyes, when he was picking up girls in Houhai, Xiao Letian was as obscene as him.
Before Paul could translate, he saw that the tiger girl shot like lightning, and the snap was a big slap, and Pierre's eyes were full of gold stars, and when he froze, he found that a pistol had been put up on his head.
"You big nose is so rude... Dare to talk nonsense to my aunt and grandmother, don't think that I don't know foreign languages to deceive, you thief eyes, you have to be detained......"
Pierre sat on the ground in fright, kicked his legs several times in a row and quickly avoided this hot-tempered beauty, and kept regretting "Why is this happening? I just want to express my sincerest love, I don't mean ...... it."
Xiao Lotian said coldly in English on the side, "Mr. Pierre, you'd better fight less ghosts, that's my wife, do you want to force me to duel with you?" I'm afraid you're not my opponent......"
It was only at this time that Pierre could be considered to have woken up from his state of lust, and he quickly stood up and bowed to Xiao Letian, "Please forgive me for my gaffe, I think you are the mysterious big man from the East...... No, no, no, you don't have to introduce yourself to me, can you allow me to guess?"
"I have been hidden by the French intelligence agencies for seven years, and I do not know a lot of the latest information, and I can only analyze it from the limited intelligence I have been exposed to in the past two days...... First of all, you are a Chinese, which is undoubted, but at the same time you do not have Qing Guo braids, and you are very fluent in American English, which shows that you have been exposed to a very good Western education......"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I really don't know much about the East, I can only make bold assumptions...... You are Chinese but not Qing, then your power should be in those colonies covered by the Han Chinese...... Oh yes, you're calling it a vassal to find ......."
"Since you have access to the world of Western civilization, you can't stay away from the sea, and there are only a limited number of vassal states along the coast of the Qing Kingdom, Korea, the Ryukyus, Vietnam, and Japan...... No, no, the Japanese no longer recognize it as a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty......"
"Korea has always followed the same continental policy as the Qing state, so I'm going to get rid of him, and then all that's left is Ryukyu and Vietnam...... Ah, Vietnam has always been under the de facto control of our French, and he can hardly be regarded as a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, he is more like a colony of our French......"
Speaking of this, Pierre bowed again and saluted Xiao Lotian, "There is only one possibility, I guess you should be a big man in the Ryukyu Kingdom, and I also know that there is a large officer corps waiting for you in Hamburg, and it is impossible for that small island country of Ryukyu to provide you with so many talents......"
"Therefore, your power should have expanded to the whole territory of the Ryukyus and part of the Qing Kingdom, your first level of identity should be the official member of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and the second level of identity should be the Qing State's Zaino family. Hehe, I guess my guess should be 80% correct, you say?"
Pierre's English is also very fluent, after this analysis, Xiao Lotian and Paul were stupid, this is simply a demon, seven years have been hidden in the snow and have not been exposed to the latest information, just through this mission, only a part of the information, can dig out Xiao Letian's true identity, which is also too terrifying.
"I really didn't expect you, a Frenchman, to be really a talent...... Why don't you consider doing it with me, how about I give you a high salary?" Xiao Lotian forgot at that moment that this big nose had just teased his daughter-in-law, and he actually rushed up and grabbed Pierre's hand.
"Think about it, France doesn't pay attention to you anyway, so it's really tyrannical that such a talent is willing to be refrigerated..."
