"I didn't say they weren't big troubles, Mr. Prime Minister, sit down and have a cup of coffee." French President François pressed his hand and motioned for Jouferi to sit down.

Ruferi raised the palm of his left hand and made a helpless gesture, "Mr. President, you don't pay attention to this issue, I have found from the tone of your voice that you don't pay attention to this issue. ”

"And what do you want me to do? Now restrict the Chinese from leaving? Like you, restricting all Chinese from doing business in France? Newspapers promoting discriminatory articles against Asia? French President François sighed.

"Mr. President, then what do you think of Huahuang? Don't you think he's a devil? At such a young age, he has made a career that a fifty-year-old person may not be able to do. Joffrey asked.

François thought for a moment, "What kind of person is he?" I think it's best for you to ignore his age, some people are born with high intelligence, it doesn't matter, besides, there are many people with high intelligence, no matter how high your intelligence is, can you be worthy of a think tank composed of more than a dozen smart people? Is it worth a party of hundreds of thousands, or even millions? The management at the national level has little to do with age and intelligence, and it is still necessary to look at Hua Huang from a political point of view, he is an ambitious, very intelligent, and scheming person, this is my view of Hua Huang. As for politics, what is the difference between his line and that of mainstream European countries? China is a country with a lot of land and resources, once unified, there are many advantages, their current land, more than twice the size of Europe, so what we have to do is on the basis of vigilance, waiting for the opportunity to suppress them, we France in Europe, in the world, is no longer the final word, although it is still known as the second, but we should clearly understand that we have actually lagged behind Germany, at most the world third. ”

"Mr. President thinks about the same as me, it seems that I misunderstood Mr. President before, and now I am relieved, but Mr. President, have you thought about how to wait for the opportunity to suppress it? Now that China is in a dispute with Japan, with the British Empire in front of it, we are following behind the British Empire, just like the First Opium War and the Second Opium War, is it not the best choice to strike at China militarily? "I think now is a good time to declare war with Britain while the Chinese Emperor is still in Europe!" ”

French President François shook his finger, "My friend, you are too arbitrary, have you ever thought that the first two times we profited from the war, why?" Because Huaguo at that time was a feudal country under the rule of the Qing government, and they were a country where ethnic minorities managed the majority of ethnic groups, for them, it was permissible to lose a little money and sign some treaties to betray the country, and it would not endanger the survival of the country. But now China is already a country ruled by the bourgeoisie, a capitalist country in the rising period, and its nature is completely different. If not, why are we spending so much money on the war? Unless you have the strength to conquer the country completely, do you think, we and Britain will be able to do that? Even if they were still in the stage of feudal society before, I think, Britain and France did not have such great strength when they united, right? ”

"Then Mr. President's opinion, let's just let Huaguo slowly become stronger, and let Huaguo be so arrogant? They now dare to interfere in the affairs of Britain in North India and Afghanistan, do you think they will not interfere in the affairs of France in the South Asian peninsula after a while? The Chinese Emperor's Declaration on Asia is very clear, and it is even tougher than the American Declaration put forward by the Americans, who have already regarded the whole of Asia as the territory of China. Jofferi insisted.

"You still don't fully understand what I mean, Mr. Prime Minister, Mr. Jouferi, the more arrogant they are, the better, the more arrogant they are, the more countries they offend, now it seems that China and Britain in Central Asia, in the Middle East, will definitely break out a local war, when we wait until both sides are exhausted, will we be able to get more and better opportunities?" French President François laughed.

Ruferi frowned, "Just waiting, I'm afraid that the British will be unwilling, and when we can think of it, will they not think of it?" Moreover, Mr. President, do not forget that there is also a Germany that is already strong enough to urgently expand its power. And, what if Huaguo wins? Has Mr. President ever thought about this possibility? ”

François was stunned, "So what do you want?" ”

"Mr. President." Ruferi said, making a murderous gesture.

"Assassination?" French President François gasped.

Assassinations were common in the eighteenth, nineteenth, and even twentieth centuries in the political arena and internationally.

Assassinations converge into a phenomenon-type characteristic, which has an overall effect on the scope and influence of its spread.

After the long Middle Ages, the feudal dynasty gradually declined, the popularity of printing led to the spread of news and knowledge, the advancement of science and technology changed the distance between the distant places, the concept of the nation-state was basically formed, and people's imagination of each other and ethnic groups became a reality. In the context of such an era of integration and dissemination, assassinations have turned from sporadic individual phenomena to overall waves. In his study of terrorism, scholar Zhang Jiadong has divided the international situation since the 19th century into four waves: anarchism, anti-colonialism, ideology, and religious extremism.

The pulse of the assassination era is broadly similar to the wave of terrorism, but it does not coincide exactly.

According to the beginning, extension and decline period of assassination, since the 19th century, assassinations can be roughly divided into the following waves: the wave of individual heroism of assassination, the wave of anti-colonial and anti-fascist pursuit of national independence, the wave of ideological division, and the wave of assassinations dominated by religious factors.

The wave of individual heroism, the wave of assassination, which began roughly in the 70s and 80s of the 19th century, and lasted until the end of the First World War in the original history.

The theme of the assassination campaign during this period was to oppose and overthrow autocratic rule.

Under the surging anarchist ideology, a group of knowledgeable people who had received advanced knowledge and were forward-looking in the times continued to assassinate the political elite of that era with self-sacrifice as the highest price of assassination.

Therefore, when French President François heard of Jouferry's opinion, he was both frightened and quickly calmed down.

François lit a cigar and said, "I think there should be a lot of people and countries who think like you, right?" Tsarist Russia, the British, and the Japanese should all want to assassinate the Chinese Emperor, right? And those people in the regions and countries that have been conquered by the Chinese army, why did we come to pick this head? You know, no matter how clever the means, there is no way not to be exposed, once people know that France did it, when the time comes, the war between China and France will be endless, and killing a Chinese emperor will be able to affect the overall structure of China? As far as I know, there are already more than 20 million people in the Huacui Party, and such a huge system, can it be changed by killing an emperor? ”

"No matter what, there will be risks, Mr. President, if we kill the Chinese Emperor, it is very likely that it will be revealed, but I am confident that the Chinese people will not be the first to suspect France, I heard that after the Chinese Emperor visited France, the next step will be to go to England." François gave him a look of disbelief, "You mean, to encourage the British to do this?" Or do you send someone to England to do it, in that case, even if you do it in England, what's the difference between doing it in France and doing it in France? ”

"Of course, it is not possible to encourage the British to do this, and it is certainly not possible to consult with their superiors, but we can sponsor a bunch of British colonialists, and even if something happens, no one will think of us in France. As long as it is done by the British, the account will not be on the heads of us French. Jouferi smiled sullenly at François.

"I heard that the populists in Tsarist Russia are already planning the assassination of the Chinese Emperor, but the Chinese Emperor's guards have done a very thorough job, they have not been able to find an opportunity, and the strength is not enough, I think, we don't need to participate in such a thing." François said uneasily.

"Mr. President, you don't have to ask about this matter, I promise that you will never cause any trouble to France, since you also agree that China will become a huge hidden danger, we have to do so, I only need, a check for 5 million francs, this money, I alone can not call the shots. I have even thought of the name of the expenditure, and it will be included in the military spending in South Asia. Mr. President, you have to support me. "Jouferi had tried to persuade François to declare war on China, but now it seems that he can't do it, so he can only retreat to the next best thing.

"You let me think about it, British colonialists, you encourage them to do it, and if they fail, they won't say that you are behind it? When the time comes, don't provoke the British government to contradict us as well. François asked anxiously.

"Mr. President, I said, foolproof, believe me, I will not come forward, this matter, from beginning to end, I can guarantee that not a single Frenchman will be involved." Ruferi swore by it.

"Give me two days to think about it." French President François snuffed out the cigar.

"Yes, sir." Jouferi knew François's personality and believed that he would be able to convince him.

It is an aggressive policy of oppression, enslavement and exploitation of 'backward' countries by the Western powers and turning them into their own colonies and semi-colonies, which is colonialism.

The manifestations of colonialism changed according to the stage of capitalist development.

At different times in the development of capitalism, colonialism took different forms.

During the period of primitive accumulation of capital, most of them resorted to violent means such as armed occupation, overseas immigration, pirate plunder, fraudulent trade, and bloody slave trade.

During the period of liberal capitalism, the underdeveloped countries, nations and regions were turned into their own commodity markets, raw material production areas, investment sites, and sources of cheap labor and mercenaries, mainly through the form of "free trade".

Today's world colonialism has developed into an imperialist period, in which, in addition to the above-mentioned means, the export of capital has become the main form of exploitation of these countries, nations and regions.

At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, the countries and regions of the world that had become colonies and semi-colonies formed an imperialist colonial system.

From 1875 to the First World War, the competition between the colonial powers intensified, and in addition to the old colonial powers (including Russia), new colonial powers such as Germany, the United States, Italy, and Belgium appeared.

In the hands of the Qing government, Hua was a typical semi-colonial and semi-feudal country, and now even now that Hua is unified, the Chinese emperor used strong means to deny a series of traitorous treaties signed by the Qing government.

However, the British and French colonialists were still very unwilling to stop like this!

Therefore, Jouferi can say with such certainty that he can carry out the assassination of the Chinese emperor without involving the French government at all.
