Chapter 187: The Siege of the Concession

Jiang Baili left to carry out Chen Shao's orders.

Chen Shao was about to call someone in to clean up the tea set, but Xie Yuxin pushed the door and walked in with a lunch box.

"Huh! Yuxin, why did you bring me food? Didn't I say I was going back to dinner? Chen Shao was a little strange, and after looking at the time, it was not half past eleven.

"I'm going to go out with my parents later, so I don't have to make a trip for you, and I'll bring you the food." Xie Yuxin closed the door and said.

"What are you going out for?" Chen Shao said with the lunch box in Xie Yuxin's hand.

"Don't ask about this! Hurry up and eat. Xie Yuxin was a little embarrassed to answer Chen Shao's words, in fact, Xie Yuxin's mother wanted to take Xie Yuxin to worship the Buddha, but Xie Yuxin knew that Chen Shao didn't like superstition, so he didn't want to say this in front of him.

"Okay, don't ask, don't ask." Chen Shao didn't break the idea of asking the casserole to the end, took out the food and ate it by himself. For Xie Yuxin to deliver the meal, Chen Shao not only did not feel that there was anything wrong, but was very happy. Half of the idea of having a good wife and husband in the family occupies half of it, and the other half is to tell everyone that today has a good day, and don't forget the old days. It is strictly forbidden to be extravagant and wasteful, and it is strictly forbidden to engage in classism. Only by being strict with oneself can one demand from others.

Xie Yuxin picked up the photo on the table and looked at it slowly. When the stack of photos was almost finished, Xie Yuxin was fascinated by one of them. Above is a foreigner, I can't see anything in the black and white photo, but one thing is certain, it looks beautiful.

"Brother Shao, it turns out that you like foreign women, no wonder you didn't even look at the photos I gave you before." Xie Yuxin saw the woman in the photo and said with some emotion. However, she was not angry, and in her heart she also hoped that Chen Shao would ask for another one. However, the foreigners surprised Xie Yuxin a little.

"How do you say that?" Chen Shao, who was eating, was a little confused by Xie Yuxin's words. With Xie Yuxin, he doesn't even plan to have a Chinese woman, although the Yanma is good, he doesn't have much interest.

"Then what's going on with this photo, you don't know where to stuff the photo I gave you before, how did this photo appear here." Xie Yuxin took the photo to Chen Shao.

After seeing the photo, when contacting Xie Yuxin, Chen Shao almost squirted out of the meal he had just eaten. No matter how good Chen Shao's cultivation is now, he almost can't control it. He was really made a little laughing and crying by Xie Yuxin. Chen Shao couldn't help but think in his heart: "My orientation is normal!" How can you think about that. ”

Chen Shao did not answer, but took the stack of photos in Xie Yuxin's other hand. took out another photo from it, handed it to Xie Yuxin and said, "You compare these two photos carefully to see if there is anything you want to say." ”

In fact, this was Chen Shao's mistake, those two photos were disguised information in the spy file, and Chen Shao just flipped it up and took a look. After that, it was not put away immediately, but was stacked with the photos of cultural relics, which was only then seen by Xie Yuxin.

"Does it make a difference?" Xie Yuxin asked puzzled. She looked at it for a long time, and the two photos were a man and a woman, and she didn't find any problems!

"I can tell you responsibly that the two photos are of the same person." Chen Shao said very seriously: "Moreover, even if I want to please a new love, I will not like a man or a foreigner." Haha" After finishing speaking, Chen Shao couldn't help laughing.

"This is a man, he can dress up so beautifully, I really don't see it." Xie Yuxin has always believed in Chen Shao's words, so she didn't suspect anything, but just felt a little emotional.

"Hehe, this is his specialty." Chen Shaodao.

――――――――――――――

According to the general practice, after the establishment of a revolutionary new government, it will adopt the principle of abrogating or amending or reformulating the unequal treaties signed by the previous government, so as to show the people the revolutionary nature of the new government and establish a good image of the new government. However, after the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, someone said: All treaties concluded between the Manchu Qing government and other countries before the revolution are considered valid by the Republic of China, and the treaties will end upon expiration.

There are reasons for the historical pattern, as well as ideological reasons.

But that's a thing of the past.

Midday.

Several restaurants in Shanghai's French Concession were stopped by the rumble of trucks, and the citizens who were eating inside ran out to watch. More than a dozen trucks of Wehrmacht soldiers in combat camouflage uniforms were heading for the French Concession.

The soldiers of the French Concession had been in fear for days, and the two countries were at war, and they were the only force in the Concession. Moreover, they were surrounded by China, for fear that the Chinese army would attack them. Usually they are polite to the Chinese in the concession, for fear of causing something. In the war, it is in the war, but this is someone else's nest, no matter how strong France is, it is beyond the reach of the whip, and if others want to capture your concession, it is not a matter of minutes and seconds.

At the beginning of the war, a defensive line had been set up in the French Concession, where at least one or twenty French soldiers were stationed every day. The soldiers, too, heard the trucks, grabbed their weapons and crawled behind the lines. The bigwigs in the concession strictly forbade them to provoke the Chinese soldiers first, unless they were attacked. In fact, there is no need to explain, these French soldiers did not plan to fight hard with the Chinese army. The French Concession and Hongkou are connected together, when China attacked Hongkou, they could see clearly on one side, not a single Japanese brigade is useless, let alone them, adding up to only a few hundred people, it is estimated that it is not enough to stuff the gaps between the teeth of the Chinese army.

The Wehrmacht in front of the French lease interface did not pay attention to the French troops inside, but directly set up a cordon opposite the French line and erected a sign. It is written in Chinese: The concession has been blocked, and it is strictly forbidden for any foreigners to enter or leave!

There were also two heavy machine guns on the cordon, and several snipers also ran up several high floors around them, and the snipers did not hide their whereabouts, and the muzzles of their guns were unanimously aimed at the French soldiers inside. If an attack were to be launched, it would be difficult for the one or two dozen French soldiers inside to hold out for even a minute.

One or twenty French soldiers swallowed their saliva when they saw such a posture, they didn't know what the Chinese army was doing. But I also know that the other party doesn't look like it's going to attack, but I just see that the two heavy machine guns and the sniper rifle upstairs are aimed at their heads, can you not be afraid?

The surrounding residents were watching from a distance, they were all attracted by the sound of trucks, originally thought that the Wehrmacht was going to attack the concession, and they were full of support for the attack on the concession, but some relatives and friends stayed in the French concession, and some were worried about their safety. Now it seems that it was originally to blockade the concession, and many people have also let go of their worries.

"Shopkeeper Wang, what do you say is this singing?" A middle-aged man with a somewhat fat figure asked a middle-aged man in a robe beside him.

"Money shopkeeper, don't you see that sign? Foreigners were not allowed to enter or leave, and the concession was blocked. The middle-aged man in the robe, who is also the king's shopkeeper, spoke.

"Just now I thought it was our army that was going to attack the concession, but the feelings were just blockade! In other words, those foreigners are too useless, and they deserve to be encircled like pigs. The money shopkeeper remembered what those foreigners had done, and gritted his teeth.

"That's it, these bitches raised it. Last year, when a couple of Frenchmen came to me to buy something, my fellow was just a little lazy, and he broke a rib alive, and if I hadn't felt it in time, I am afraid that my fellow would have been beaten to death. Think about what an honest person my guy is, usually conscientious, I didn't expect to be treated like this. Afterwards, the Frenchmen didn't have anything to do, and they laughed and left, which was really a wretch to think about. If they do this iniquity, they will not be afraid of thunder and thunder. The shopkeeper Wang was even more resentful.

"None of our shops on the edge of the concession have been bullied by foreigners. It is said that the batch of fine silk I imported last year has not yet been transported to the store, and it has been seized by a few French soldiers who came out, and they also said that I was transporting illegal materials and pulling my cart of silk directly into the French Concession. But I don't want to think about it, not to mention that I didn't pull any illegal materials, and even if I pulled illegal materials, it would not be their turn to be in charge of the French, and it was not in the concession. Alas! It's not the car of silk that I fell in love with, it almost didn't bankrupt me at the beginning, and I still owe a lot of debt. Why didn't the great leader come over earlier, and we could have suffered less, if we had completed the reunification of China last year, I think those foreigners would still dare to be so unscrupulous. The money shopkeeper shook his head, looking helpless.

"Money shopkeeper, don't worry! There was a day when I settled accounts with them, and I remember those French people very well. When our army has defeated the British and French, I will go to the government and sue them. I believe that the current government is definitely not the Nanjing it used to be. The shopkeeper said.

"Yes, I will go with you when the time comes, and then I will call the other shopkeepers, and we will go and sue the Frenchmen together. At the beginning, the Japanese in Hongkou were the end of them, and they all went to the Bund to build roads. The money shopkeeper said a little excitedly.

The conversation between the two has attracted the attention of the surroundings, and some people who know each other have also started to talk about it, and the scene has become very lively for a while.

At this time, hearing the discussion of the surrounding crowd, the battalion commander of the Wehrmacht who led the team picked up the megaphone and shouted: "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, please rest assured that our We're going to stand behind you forever." I promise to give you a satisfactory explanation, and I will never let go of any foreigner who has a bad record in China, and we will also severely punish those foreigners who have committed crimes. ”

Hearing the shouts of the Wehrmacht officers, the crowd began to cheer. Although they didn't know what the name of the soldier who shouted was called, they all believed in the uniform and the promise given by these soldiers, because it was they who led China to become strong, and they were the soldiers of the great leader.
