Zhang Biao was born in the martial arts in the end, and he had brute force, so he was in a hurry, pulled the shackles to his knees, handed the chain to Duan Jin's hand, and said: "Duan Ye, you hold on to the chain, you are offended." ”

After speaking, he picked up Duanjin, put his head back under his armpit, strode forward, ran out of more than two miles in one breath, stopped to catch his breath, looked back, and saw that those Revolutionary Guards were still in hot pursuit, so he ran wildly and continued to run towards the concession with Duanjin in his hands.

The two ran to the concession out of breath, but were stopped by several British soldiers with loaded guns at the intersection.

After the recovery of Jiujiang, the British concession authorities announced a blockade of external communications, "external neutrality", and did not allow revolutionary soldiers to set foot in the concession.

In a hurry, Duan Jin shouted in English: "I am an important official of the Qing Empire!" I was kidnapped by the rebels. I ask to enter the concession for protection! ”

Over the years, he has followed Duanfang to the north and south, and he has not learned other skills, but he has learned a few words of foreign dialect.

The British soldiers discussed a few words, and saw a group of armed "rebels" running behind them, so they moved the barricades, let Zhang Biao and Duanjin enter the concession, and then erected the barricades to block the group of Revolutionary Guards.

Standing behind the barricade, Duan Jin was in high spirits, pointed at those Revolutionary Guard members, and shouted: "You have the ability to come in and arrest the master!" Touching the crotch is still there? If you're there, just get in and catch you! ”

"Dog officer! I really can't help you? One of the Revolutionary Guards scolded, and with a wave of his hand, the dagger flew over the barricade and flew straight towards Duanjin.

"Master Duan, be careful!" Zhang Biao's eyes were quick, and he pushed Duanjin, and the dagger flew over Duanjin's ears.

Several British soldiers were obviously a little overwhelmed, and were stunned for a moment before pulling the bolt of their guns and pointing at the Revolutionary Guards members and shouting threats.

Duanjin naturally didn't dare to stay for a moment, and hurriedly pulled Zhang Biao into the concession alley, gasping and saying, "It can be regarded as running out!" There is no endless road. I don't die, and one day I will find that Zhao Bei to take revenge! ”

Just when Duanjin was scolding the revolutionary soldiers, Zhao Bei took his guards to stand on the south gate, carefully observing the situation at the British concession intersection with a telescope.

"Tian Jinfu, your subordinates are too reckless, if the dagger is stuck in Duanjin, I can settle accounts with you!" Zhao Bei put down the binoculars and sank his face.

Tian Jinfu scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "No way, the commander also said that he wanted to play the play realistically." I think they were too engaged. However, the two fools were really anxious, and on the first day they were let out to work, they thought of running away. ”

"There is a danger of killing your head at any time, and you have to run if you change it." Zhao Bei couldn't help laughing, picked up the binoculars, looked at the concession again, and said, "Hurry up and withdraw your people!" If the British soldiers really shoot, this scene will be considered a mess! The current Britain is a brute bull, and our Republican Army is just a little flea, and we can't afford to provoke it. ”

"Blow the trumpet!" Tian Jinfu gave an order to the trumpeters beside him.

As soon as the horn sounded, the "Revolutionary Guards" immediately turned around and left the concession with a curse.

Zhao Bei breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Go to Lan Tianwei immediately and ask him to negotiate with the Ministry of Industry Bureau of the British Concession and extradite the fugitive back." In addition, find a way to let some people escape, especially those Qing Dynasty officials who were once locked in a black room, it is best to let those flag men go, and when they run, you can consider killing a few or injuring a few. ”

"Do you really want to send someone to negotiate with the British?" Tian Jinfu was a little puzzled. "In the event of a diplomatic dispute and the British send gunboats to intervene, it will be a waste of rice. As you said, we're fleas now. ”

"Therefore, the person who negotiates must be a calm person, a person who has seen the world and stayed in the ocean." Zhao Bei put down the binoculars, pondered for a moment, and said: "The reason why I acted in this scene is not only to let go of those who know Guangxu's 'real cause of death', but also to let others see our position. ”

"Where do we stand? What position? Who to watch? Tian Jinfu was even more puzzled.

"You'll understand later. You look at the news in this newspaper first. Zhao Bei said lightly, took out a folded newspaper from his pocket, handed it to Tian Jinfu, and then raised the telescope to continue to observe the British Concession.

Tian Jinfu took the newspaper and opened it, only to find that it was an English newspaper, full of foreign languages, only the headline was translated by the General Staff and written in pencil in the blank, and the headline of the news was quite eye-catching: "Bosnian Crisis!" 》

Tian Jinfu didn't know where the specific location of this "Bosnia" was, judging from the content of the news, it seemed to be in Europe, as for what the Bosnian crisis had to do with the current British Concession, he couldn't figure it out, and looked up, but in Zhaobei, he was still looking at the British Concession, so he also raised his neck to look over there.

There is only one foreign concession outside the Jiujiang city, not far from the city wall, on the edge of the Yangtze River, as long as a few shallow water heavy gunboats are placed here, the entire transportation and even economic lifeline of the Yangtze River basin can be choked.

In the eyes of the British, the entire Yangtze River basin is their forbidden territory, and other countries are not allowed to touch it, and some countries are indeed very dissatisfied with this.

"Probably, the German Emperor would have been glad to see the English deflated in China." Zhao Bei turned his thoughts in his heart.

There is no way, China in this era is too weak, if you can't find a tough backer, let alone a strong country, even if you divide one side and become a warlord, don't you make it clear in history textbooks: behind every warlord stands an imperialist.

History has proved that Britain supported Yuan Shikai, but was indifferent to the Southern Revolutionary Party, and it was unrealistic to defect to Britain.

The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and since it will not work to take refuge in the British, then the enemy of the British can only be considered.

Britain is like an over-expanded chain of enterprises, they are very satisfied if they can hold on to their existing territory, they will not support a potential opponent, and those small enterprises on their own territory must also develop according to British rules, and must not threaten British interests; Germany is different from Britain, it is like a chain enterprise in the process of expansion, the existing territory is far from satisfying its greed, but there is a British enterprise that occupies those territories and refuses to sell, so if there are any small enterprises willing to fight with the British, then the Germans will be happy to push it behind, even if it can't defeat the British, at least it can make Britain have no time to take care of it and win opportunities for German enterprises, as for whether the small enterprises will threaten German interests in the future, it is not in the consideration of the Germans.

The enemy of his enemy is his friend, and even if he is a false friend, he has his use.

Since Germany and Britain do not deal with each other, then play the German card, as for whether it is useful or not, then we can only wait, anyway, there are not many good cards in the hand.

If you want Germany to notice you, you have to do something that will interest the Germans, and what do German politicians like the most like these days?

Anti-British!

Jiujiangcheng's anti-British action was only the first step in Zhao Bei's waving of an olive branch to Germany, and if it worked, he would continue to wave it until the right time.

Speculation, this is what the traverser has to do, and, because he knows the development of history, this kind of speculation often has a great chance of winning, at least not a complete defeat.

Sometimes, politics is all about gambling and speculation.

Or in other words, in Chinese-style political language, this is called "casting names", foreign names.
