"Damn, our gate exits are surrounded by Chinese!"

Looking at the large number of Chinese protesters outside the public board office, the French general director Mazug was roaring at the phone, on the other end of the phone was the French consulate in Shanghai, the French high command in Shanghai, but listening to the sound of the phone, the situation on their side did not seem to be much better.

"Mobilize the police force of the central arrest house, by the way, what about the Chinese governor Huang Jinrong? Isn't he the best way to deal with these Chinese? The consul in Shanghai also said urgently.

"He? The devil knows where he is now, God, there are so many of these Chinese! Mazug was sweating profusely.

"This..."

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and after a while a voice came, "You guys are holding on, the French minister in Beijing has sent a telegram saying that France's fleet is approaching Shanghai, there are more than a thousand soldiers on it, and it won't be long before these Chinese will be honest." ”

"How long?"

"Soon, believe me, Mr. Dong."

The other party hung up the phone, Mazug looked out the window at the growing crowd, and the uneasiness in her heart became bigger and bigger, what's wrong? It is difficult for these Chinese to go crazy, and if this continues, it is still a question whether he can wait until the moment when the fleet lands.

"Close the board of directors, lock the door, and these people must not break in!"

After thinking about it, he decided to stick to it.

"Amen, bless us."

....

The situation in the public concessions in Britain and France was the same, a large number of Chinese took to the streets, holding high the newly printed foreign newspaper, on which were pictures of Ye Kai's performance, they shouted loudly that the Chinese must not be bullied, and rushed to the Bund wharf, there were gentry, low-level officials, intellectuals, shop merchants, ordinary workers, and even peddlers buying foreign cigarettes, witnessing this scene, the foreign directors of the Ministry of Industry Bureau of the concession were almost frightened, what is the matter, Shanghai has not made such a fuss for almost half a century, Could it be that these people want to drive them out of China?

Once the national sentiment is ignited, the consequences are bound to be unimaginable; although when the Gengzi country changed, Shanghai implemented mutual protection in the southeast and did not suffer from it, but there were not a few people who donated money to resist the war, and now the British and French warships are approaching Shanghai Beach, and the Governor General is the first to take the lead, they are naturally the same hatred of the enemy, unanimously to the outside world, besides, this matter was originally justified by the Chinese, why do those Western countries that claim to be a civilized world insist on sending troops to intervene?

The arrogance of foreigners angered everyone, when the stock boom broke out, Shanghai was in a depression, and there were countless people who permeated water every day. Now that Governor Liang has vigorously reformed and tried his best to help Qianzhuang, this has just made Shanghai Tang a little better, why are you foreigners so rude? Moreover, the stock market was provoked by you foreign unscrupulous businessmen, and it is justified that the good governor has issued a wanted warrant and is unable to arrest these black sheep, is there anything wrong with this? Why did you foreigners aim their cannons at this good official who had done his best, could it be that the cannonballs were your axioms?

The crowd was filled with righteous indignation, accusing the British and French of barbarism, and their emotions rose higher and higher, and some people even ran into the walls of the consulate, tore down their flags and burned them, so that the frightened people inside shrank into the buildings and did not dare to come out.

Those mixed in the crowd, the public knowledge full of a sense of justice began to play a miraculous effect, scolding people is a must for them, there is a reason, counting the various bad deeds of foreigners in China, Chen Yan foreigner concession is a major cancer in China, if you want to strengthen China, you must first remove outsiders, as soon as this remark came out, the scene instantly agitated.

In addition, there seemed to be traces of the Green Gang members in the crowd, which were said to have been ordered by Hall Master Chen.

In short, fueled by different forces, the crowd gathered at the Bund Pier to fight against the steel giant ships of the foreigners with flesh and blood.

The sea breeze was blowing in the face, making people shiver, and in the hazy steam, more than a dozen warships were slowly coming in the direction of the concession of the wharf.

The British, the French came, and everyone held their breath.

1000m, 500m, 300m, 200m, 100m,...

People on the shore can already clearly see the rice flag hanging above.

They stood more compactly, arm in arm.

The people formed a human wall, and the British and French warships circled around the port area, but they did not find a place to land on the shore.

In the end, the Anglo-French forces had no choice but to sail to the northern part of the concession, where there were uninhabited tidal flats.

In a short time, 1,500 French soldiers and 700 British soldiers landed from the ship, and then set out by land, marching towards the concession.

The news of the landing, like a frying pan, spread through the crowd, and the alarm sounded throughout Shanghai Beach.

"The ship of the Guangyang people is coming, why don't you see the ship of the good governor?"

They had heard the news that the Governor of Liangjiang led his ships to sea, and at this time, why didn't they see the Chinese sailors?

"Didn't you get hurt by foreigners?"

The crowd began to murmur, and soon spread throughout the docks, filling the air of pathos everywhere.

"Good Lord..."

Many people have begun to cry bitterly, thinking that Ye Kai has been martyred, the foreigners are strong and the ships are strong, and the good governor is likely to have been sunk...

"Look, our army of the Great Qing Kingdom is here."

From a distance, a group of men and horses were hurrying over, and it was a ragtag army of more than 1,600 people led by Cheng Dequan.

Just when people breathed a sigh of relief, at the corner of the harbor, the figure of a huge ship was rapidly approaching, and on the mast, the yellow dragon flag was hoisted high.

"That's Governor Liang's ship!"

The sharp-eyed people in the crowd had already made their voices in advance.

"It's the Chinese fleet! It is the Chinese fleet! God willing, the good man is still there! ”

These prayers, Ye Kai, who was far away on the "Haiqi", naturally would not hear them, at this moment, he had only one goal in his eyes, to keep the foreigners' army out of the concession, and to give him, Yi-Xuan, and the foreigners, enough time to win.

"All the soldiers obeyed the order and landed in the concession, our Chinese land must not be stained with a barbarian footprint!"

The entire Shanghai Beach seemed to be suddenly blazing with Ye Kai's words.

A muzzle-to-muzzle standoff is inevitable. (To be continued.) )
