Chapter 344: Give money and release people

In the southwest battlefield, the main force of the Tibetan army was eliminated and more than 20 British Imperial military advisers were captured alive. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In addition to the military advisers accompanying the army, the British Empire also had a company of troops in Tibet.

In the absence of the main force to defend, the Northland Volunteers were invincible and smashed the Yellow Dragon.

As for the British Empire's army, it is naturally not a problem, the problem is that people's lives are very expensive, and when they saw that the situation was not good, they raised their hands and surrendered early.

Just kidding, how can you fight with your life, these British Empire troops are very aware of current affairs.

The Northland Volunteers were not in a hurry, and the vanguard continued to advance in the direction of Bhutan along the road from the British Empire. As for the rear, it was handed over to the peasant troops, and there was probably no problem in dealing with some unarmed slave owners.

By this time, the British Empire had already learned that its military advisers had been captured.

This is worth it, the soldiers of the Sun Never Sets Empire can't stay in the hands of the Northland Volunteers.

As a result, the diplomats of the British Empire put pressure on the Nationalist Government to release the Northland Volunteers.

The government of the Republic of China did not want to offend the British Empire, so He Yingqin telegraphed to convey the demands of the British Empire.

Just kidding, the culprit was finally caught by the military adviser of the British Empire, will Feng Tian let it go easily?

Feng Tian asked Feng Yong to transfer his meaning, the British Empire wanted people, and he came to the Northland to negotiate.

The British Empire was accustomed to arrogance in China, and did not realize how difficult this matter was, so it sent foreign affairs officers to negotiate with the Northland Volunteers.

Feng Tian arranged for Shi Zhaoji, the new dean of the Foreign Affairs Academy, to come forward and negotiate with the British Empire's foreign affairs personnel.

This treasure order also knew Shi Zhaoji, but his attitude was very arrogant, and he said arrogantly: "You Northland must unconditionally release the captives, and our British Empire can not be blamed for the past, otherwise, the consequences will be very serious." ”

Now Shi Zhaoji is no longer a foreign affairs officer on the side of the Republic of China government, but negotiates on behalf of the Northland Volunteers.

Before the negotiations, Shi Zhaoji had already been instructed by Fengtian to let go of his courage to confront him-for-tat, and if he did not meet the conditions, he would not be negotiated.

Therefore, Shi Zhaoji laughed a few times very contemptuously and said: "Hehe, the British Empire is really unreasonable, this time the British Empire interfered in China's internal affairs for no reason, and instigated Tibetan soldiers to attack the Northland Volunteers, and the blame cannot be escaped." Your soldiers were captured in the war and invaded other countries, and they should be punished. If you want to take a prisoner, you can take the money to redeem it. ”

When Bao Ling heard this, he was stunned, and he wanted a ransom?

Well, isn't it just about money?

"Anyway, how much does a soldier cost, the British Empire is not bad for money." Bao Ling scratched his nose and put on a high-spirited look.

"Not much, fifty thousand pounds for a private, one hundred thousand pounds for a first class, two hundred thousand pounds for a corporal, three hundred thousand pounds for a sergeant, four hundred thousand pounds for a sergeant, five hundred thousand pounds for a second warrant officer, six hundred thousand pounds for a first warrant officer, seven hundred thousand pounds for a second lieutenant, eight hundred thousand pounds for a lieutenant, ninety hundred thousand pounds for a captain, and one million pounds for a major. Oh, and the highest rank among the captured personnel is captain, and it goes without saying. The price is clearly marked, and there is no bullying for children. Shi Zhaoji had a playful expression and said slowly, and Lord Baoling on the other side was simply mad, and his face was quite ugly.

Lord Baoling finally couldn't bear it anymore, and slapped the table angrily and shouted, "It's nonsense, why don't you rob it?" ”

"Hehe, the British Empire army rushed into our house like a robber, I haven't said that the British Empire is like a robber, but Lord Baoling opened his mouth and closed his mouth to be a robber, there is really no place for reason in this world." Shi Zhaoji was not angry, he spoke slowly and methodically, laughing and fascinated.

Bao Ling was momentarily angry and sat down decadently.

"You are asking for a sky-high price, which is too high for us to accept. The lowest rank of these soldiers was corporal, and on average they were £600,000 each, for a total of £12,000,000, which was nothing short of a blatant act of money grabbing.

With less money, we can accept this method and reduce the price. "Fa Wei, fighting momentum is useless here for Shi Zhaoji, Bao Ling had to change his attitude and bargain with Shi Zhaoji.

Shi Zhaoji smiled and said: "If the price is too high, the British Empire can not redeem it, and we have no choice but to force you to release the money to redeem it, it's a big deal to let these captives sell their coolies to atone for their crimes, and the Northland Volunteers will not lose money." ”

Bao Ling was angry, and suddenly stood up and said, "You are abusing the prisoners and violating the rules of international law, and I will accuse you." ”

Shi Zhaoji waved his hand, as if to let Bao Ling sit down, and said: "Mr. Bao Ling, we are not a government army, so far we are still a local army, is it useful for you to sue us?" ”

Shi Zhaoji's answer suddenly made Baoling feel powerless, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

Yes, the Northland Volunteer Army is a local army, to be precise, it is a warlord army, the Nationalist Government has no control, and international law is even more powerless, who is the British Empire going to sue?

Let's use force, it's too far away for the British Empire's troops to pass.

When Bao Ling encountered such a soft and hard opponent, he realized that things were not as simple as he thought.

The negotiations could no longer proceed, and besides, the lion of the Northland Volunteers couldn't make the decision, so he got up and brushed his sleeves away.

The first round of negotiations broke up unhappily and without any results.

Bao Ling reported the conditions for the release of the Northland Volunteers to the Minister in China, but they could not decide on this matter, so they could only report it to the level of the government, so that the British Empire government would have a headache.

This went back and forth in October, and when it went bad, the British Empire army was captured by the Northland Volunteers and a company was captured, and Nima's problem was greatly solved.

When the news came, the government and the opposition of the British Empire were shaken, and now it is no longer a matter of more than 20 people, but hundreds of officers and soldiers of the British Imperial Army.

The parliamentarians were hoarse and vowed revenge, but unfortunately, the Northland Volunteers were not on the sea, and the British Empire's naval guns could not punish the Northland Volunteers. Even if the British Empire troops came ashore, they probably wouldn't be able to reach the territory of the Northland Volunteers.

Therefore, the parliamentarians of the British Empire are just talking about it, but they are not eggs.

However, these captives could not be left alone, and when it came to the face of the British Empire, negotiations had to continue.

The problem is that the Northland Volunteers are determined not to let go and maintain the original asking price. It doesn't matter if you give money and release people, it doesn't matter if you don't give money, anyway, people are in my hands, if the British Empire is not afraid of a bad face in the future, then let them be coolies.

This is fatal, now it is not a captive of more than 20 people, but more than 100 people, the British Empire is rich, but it can't be squandered like this?

When you meet a lion with a big mouth like the Northland Volunteers, Bao Ling really has a headache, and he can't reach it, and he can't bargain after negotiation, what do you say?

What to do, I can only fight to the death, and the treasure order is simply on the way.

It's a pity that Shi Zhaoji quickly saw through his intentions and ignored him anymore. (To be continued.) )
