Chapter 221: Spring Sail Tower (I)
Wang He looked at the roadmap of the kidnappers' actions on the table, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"Lao Lu, you see that this is the supply point preset by the kidnappers, this is the route of action of the Mi-24 helicopter, this is the route of our pursuit force, it is obvious that this group of people had to give up the idea of going to the supply point under our pursuit. But why did they take another detour here? Do you really want to go back to the supply point? Wang He asked Lu Xiangyang while marking a line on the map.
"Probably not, when we searched the inner circle, we found their preset supply point, where there was nothing else but some clothing and dry food, and it was not worth the risk they had." Lu Xiangyang replied.
"According to Song Yuanshan, there are two members of this gang who are not among the prisoners and bandits who were killed, and it just so happens that one of these two faceless guys is also surnamed Cai, do you think this is related to the kidnapper's short unexplained movement trajectory?" Wang He said.
"I understand what you mean, but have you ever thought that Cai Datou's interrogation of Li Ersheng was carried out in the mountain temple, and before that, they were chased like dogs by us, and they didn't have time to get any information, which was also confirmed by Li Ersheng's confession. Therefore, it should be impossible for the kidnappers to pass on any information. Lu Xiangyang said.
"Of course, this idea of yours can be applied to a regular action team, but don't forget that Cai Datou, the old slippery head, is not an intelligence agent with faith, so he doesn't care if the information he sends out is true! In other words, in his time of desperation, he most likely wanted to Montfuller. Wang He said.
"But Cai Datou's background information shows that he doesn't know many words, what kind of information can he convey?" Lu Xiangyang said.
"What if Fuller gave him some yes/no questions or multiple choice questions?" Wang He said.
"Are you saying that Cai Datou may be in a hurry in front of him, and he will answer indiscriminately and want to cheat the rest of the remuneration?" Lu Xiangyang said.
An Yanxin said that the pursuing troops were once very close to the kidnappers, and in order to prevent them from tearing up the tickets, he ordered the troops at the front to slow down and let the kidnappers go to the area of the mountain temple. It is very likely that Cai Datou felt that it was the last moment at that time, and it was possible to answer randomly. Wang He said.
"Then I'll send someone to keep an eye on the weird action route area of the kidnappers, it's really like you guessed, we can't catch the person who came to get information, Cai Datou probably won't say the content of those right or wrong questions and multiple choice questions." Lu Xiangyang also roughly understood Wang He's conjecture.
If there really are so-called true/false questions and multiple-choice questions, then the content of these questions is indeed very important to the cross-cutting crowd that cannot be used by Fuller at the moment. They can know from these Fuller's preset questions that this Frenchman has something unusual about the Great Song Empire, in addition to the set he advocated in public.
Only with these circumstances in hand can the traversers decide what to do with the piece that the French threw out to test them. Simply letting Fuller's world evaporate will only make the people behind him more convinced of Fuller's conjecture.
"I'm rubbing, why do these natives have so many fancy intestines? Even Fuller, who is a chess piece, and Cai Datou, who was born as a ruffian, are full of routines! Zhao Yi sighed after listening to Wang He's report.
"In which era is there no one who is fine? Many natives actually used a lot of tricks against us in the early stage, but in the face of absolute strength, many of their tricks didn't work. But in my field, many times it doesn't work to pull out a gun and scare, and the natives still have a great advantage in this field! Wang He said.
"I'm a little worried about MissFox when you say that, can they still handle it calmly outside of our artillery range?" Zhao Yi said.
The traversal with the German black back soon found the marks left by Cai Datou, some illogical symbols carved into the tree and obscured by the bark. The German blackback followed the smell all the way to the Dalian Bay City, and then lost the clue because of the complicated personnel there.
Obviously, Cai Datou succeeded in buying time for his accomplice, and after he was caught, An Yanxin withdrew the troops of the encirclement, which allowed Cai Datou's accomplice, who was not involved in the kidnapping, to easily enter the scene and obtain information.
Fortunately, Fuller is currently being watched by the Department of Homeland Security 24 hours a day, and Cai Datou's accomplices should not have completed further deals. With this kind of one-shot deal, presumably Cai Datou's accomplices can only complete the transaction through a meeting, and the traversers still have a chance to catch Fuller before he meets him.
It took several days to cross the Liaodong Peninsula to deal with the hijacking incident, and the negotiation delegation led by MissFox had arrived at Maguan in the island country.
On the first day of entering Chunfan Tower, the delegation encountered trouble, and the Manchu people refused to sit at the same table with the "pseudo-Song" people. Unlike the original time and space, there was no Li Hongzhang among the officials sent by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the old fox did not accept this hot potato this time regardless of how much Guangxu and Cixi made trouble.
Lord Zhongtang seems to have clearly realized that he can't make up for this rotten house in the Manchu Dynasty, and he doesn't want to let himself be left behind at this time. What if the Great Song who is in Liaodong can't figure out whether it is the prince or the prince's Zhao family, what will he bring to himself? If you take it, you will be the second minister of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and if you don't take it back, the Zhao family will take back the unification, and you will be a traitor and a thief! Can't I hide if I can't be provoked? The old fox directly lay at home and pretended to be sick, and even his stupid son Li Jingfang was called back from Maguan by him to do his filial piety in front of the sickbed.
In the end, the imperial party launched Weng Tongshu on the side, and the latter party launched Ronglu who didn't know how to wash his name, and got together a delegation that didn't know whether the earth was square or round and rushed to Maguan to negotiate.
Of course, Master Weng was the emperor, and he was unwilling to sit around the table with anti-thieves like the "Pseudo-Song Dynasty", and put on a posture of leaving as long as he crossed the delegation and entered the Chunfan Building. Of course, Rong Lu, a senior undercover agent, could not be biased towards the crowd on such a small issue, and for a while, the negotiations fell into an impasse again because of the arrival of the person who spoke the most weightily.
"Mr. Prime Minister, we will only ask you for the military expenses we spend in Liaodong. Let's not talk about it now, let's talk about it after the fleet of the Great Song Royal Navy comes. MissFox said to Hirobumi Ito.
"We will put pressure on the Manchu government, but I wonder if you can accept the proposal to be absent from the Chunfan Lou meeting and we will convey the content of the meeting on your behalf?" Hirofumi Ito said cautiously.
"What do you say? Did I come all the way from Liaodong to embarrass myself? Do you feel that if you are out of the range of our cannons, you will be hardened? "MissFox is still the same old routine, and when I came up, I asked you if you weren't convinced.
Ito Hirofumi is also a generation of capable ministers, and it is also very depressing to be choked like this by a young girl in her twenties. This question was not asked by himself to do something, the father of the gold owner had to ask him to test the attitude of the Great Song Dynasty, and he had to do it as a last resort.
Is Da Song really strong, you send a fleet to try it yourself, we were all beaten into dogs, what are you letting me test? We still have 20,000 troops in Liaodong and may be cut off by the Great Song Royal Marines at any time, you let me test a ball! Ito Hirofumi has a baby's bitter expression but the baby can't say.
