From time to time in the capital, a violent gunfire can be heard from a corner, and the frightened people often dare not go out.

At the same time, Wang Sirui was not idle, in the outer city, Wang Sirui divided the west of the Dongcheng city wall, the east of the Temple of Heaven, and the south of Sanyi Nunnery into a military restricted area.

A whole regiment of troops was stationed there, and several artillery pieces captured from the coalition forces were also housed here.

Of course, in addition to these accidents, there is another reason why Wang Sirui attaches so much importance to it.

That is the wealth looted by the coalition forces, all of which was placed here by Wang Sirui.

If it is placed in the future generations, there is absolutely no problem with auctioning these gold antiques for hundreds of billions.

And even now, just that gold and silver are as much as hundreds of millions of taels of silver.

There are so many officials and traders in the capital, how can a casual official have less than 10,000 taels of silver?

If you meet a big official, who doesn't have tens of millions of taels of gold and silver?

Just talking about the imperial court, is it really poor?

In fact, it is not poor at all, and if you really squeeze it, you can still squeeze out a lot of money.

But no matter how much money you have, you can't stand Cixi Lafayette eating and drinking in the sea, right? can eat a capital ship in a year, how can such a court have money?

Of course, if the money spent on the construction of the Summer Palace had been used to buy warships to form a navy, would there still be the rampant nature of Little Japan today? I'm afraid that even with the current fleet size of the Eight-Nation Alliance, the Qing Dynasty Navy will not be much inferior, right?

And the coalition forces have occupied the capital for several months, and they have already turned the entire capital upside down.

But this is also just right, just made a dowry for Wang Sirui, and Wang Sirui of the province went to churn a little more.

In this military restricted area, there are more than a dozen people with special identities who are locked up with him.

These people were none other than the high-ranking members of the coalition forces, including the commander-in-chief of the Eight-Nation Alliance, Wadsey, and after more than ten days of detention, the fleet that had been staying in Tianjin also noticed the abnormality.

Traditionally, every few days they would send a telegram back asking for supplies. But this time it's been half a month, and I still haven't received any telegrams.

And the telegrams they sent were like stones sinking into the sea.

What's even worse is that tens of thousands of coalition troops on the front line have had to stop the offensive because of the problem of ammunition supply. But fortunately, the Qing army had no intention of fighting back, and they obviously did not understand the situation of the coalition forces.

And those communication troops from Tianjin or the south were also controlled immediately after entering the capital, and the main forces of the coalition forces in Tianjin and the south still did not get any news about the capital.

For a time, the coalition forces were in turmoil.

In the military restricted area, Wadsey and others were supplied with good food and drink, and they had half an hour of watching the wind every day, and their lives were very comfortable.

But in the hearts of these people, it is as if they have overturned a jar of spices, and they have mixed flavors.

After being locked up for half a month, only people came to deliver food and drink every day, but no one came to ask them anything, which made these high-level people upset.

And, everyone knows. This mission was a complete failure, and the coalition forces were forced to admit defeat.

Because after losing the capital, no country can afford the loss of continuing to expand the war.

Before meeting these high-level coalition forces, Wang Sirui also sent a congratulatory message to the imperial court hundreds of miles away.

In one room, Wang Sirui sat on a chair, and four soldiers stood behind him.

At this time, Wadsey has long since lost his previous arrogant and crazy appearance, and has been replaced by endless downfall.

With short curly hair, it is extremely dirty, and it is impossible to associate it with the identity of the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces.

"Your Excellency, how about calling you that?" Wang Sirui doesn't know German, so he can only preach in English.

And Wadsey, as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, naturally knows some English, and besides, Europe is so big, and it is normal for the top level to speak several Chinese.

"You are Wang Sirui?" Wadsey looked up at the young man sitting in front of him, and there was some disbelief in his eyes, but this look instantly retracted, but it was still captured by Wang Sirui.

"It's a contemptible person, I don't know what His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief has to say?" Wang Sirui smiled.

"......" Wadsey was a little speechless for a while, he didn't know what to say anymore, although he tried his best to make himself look not at a disadvantage, but he was helpless, and the surrounding environment made him unable to talk to Wang Sirui as normal.

After a long time, Wadsey could only say with ill feelings: "You are very talented, and in you, let me see the figure of Napoleon." ”

After finishing speaking, Wadsey immediately looked at Wang Sirui, he wanted to see what Wang Sirui's reaction was?

Yes, you do have Napoleon's shadow in you, and I am complimenting you. But let's not forget that despite Napoleon's popularity, his fate was extremely tragic.

Wadsey wanted to warn Wang Sirui not to treat the Western powers too much, otherwise his fate would be worse than Napoleon's.

"In my eyes, Napoleon was just a reckless man, I admit his talent in military affairs, but in politics, Napoleon was a reckless man in the truest sense of the word. Do you think that Napoleon is comparable to me? Wang Sirui threw the question back to Wadsey.

Sure enough, after hearing Wang Sirui's answer, the corners of Wadsey's mouth twitched slightly.

If it had been Napoleon sitting across from him, he would have proudly said, "You see, I am the victor after all, and you are just a small episode in my ambitions."

Napoleon would then order them all to be put to death, and in Napoleon's time, such things were not uncommon.

However, Wang Sirui pointed out Napoleon's weakness in one sentence, which also shows that Wang Sirui is more difficult than Napoleon.

Although Nawang Sirui is a little unreliable compared with Napoleon, or Wang Sirui is not enough to compare with Napoleon, the current situation does not allow Wadsey to think about more problems.

Obviously, in this round of confrontation, Wadsey lost to Wang Sirui.

And Wadsey, as a political general, is not as good as this young and scary guy in front of him, can you imagine what will happen to others?

Suddenly, Wadsey sensed that Wang Sirui's presence would be the greatest threat to the Western powers.

Suddenly there was a thought in my head. Wadsey hoped that the Western powers would eliminate Wang Sirui at all costs, otherwise, they would suffer even greater losses in the future.
