Chapter Eighty-Six: Bringing Troops to the Door

Holding the pipe and swallowing a few large mouthfuls of smoke in a row, Wen Xian's thoughts were reactivated, he barely sat up, and said slowly: "We still underestimated Wang Feng, he should have seen through our strategy, and in turn, he will plan and set up an ambush to annihilate our coalition forces, at present, we are facing three problems, first of all, we must figure out how he did it, secondly, how to deal with him before the arrival of the expeditionary force, and third, and the most tricky, how to explain to the government!" ”

Three questions, the first one no one can answer, in fact, everyone is very incomprehensible, this is six hundred mini guns, if Wang Feng uses tens of thousands of horses to besiege, maybe it is still possible, but Wang Feng's strength is not a secret, he only has more than 4,000 people, including 1,000 female soldiers, and he has to leave people to defend the city, even if the army he participated in the attack is also a mini gun in his hand, the coalition army can retreat if it is found inappropriate, how can it be surrounded and annihilated?

And the second point, except for Alice, who has not suffered at the hands of Wang Feng? Wang Feng gave them the impression that cunning was not inferior to that of a fox, decisive was no less than that of a cheetah, and fierceness was like a male division.

But at present, the British, French and British armies in Shanghai are only a few hundred people, this part of the people must protect the safety of the concession and the expatriates, it is impossible to take out to fight Wang Feng, although Xu Naizhao's strength is still there, when Baoshan was broken, the captured and killed in the battle were actually less than 200 people, most of the Qing army fled in time, and later attacked Baoshan was killed by a grenade more than 400 cavalry, Xu Naizhao still has more than 7,000 troops, but everyone knows what the Qing army is, I'm afraid that Xu Naizhao himself doesn't have the slightest confidence in Wang Feng with his superior forces!

The third point is indeed the most fatal, the total annihilation of 600 soldiers, plus the bombing and sinking of the Hermes, if the authorities pursue it, Bonham and others are likely to need to resign with guilt!

The hall fell silent again, everyone was at a loss, at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, several pairs of eyes immediately looked over, a British trotting over, standing at the door shouted: "Gentlemen, Wang Feng, the leader of the Taiping Army, is already outside the concession, hoping to talk to a few gentlemen." ”

"What is he here for?" Wen Xian stood up reflexively and asked urgently, "How many people did he bring?" Do you want to attack the concession? ”

Ali Guo, Rawell and Jin Nengheng, and even Alice are also full of nervousness, you know, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom does not recognize the concession, and has no diplomatic relations with the governments of Britain, France and the United States, Wang Feng attacked, and it was completely legally standable, and the concession surrounded by more than 10,000 people and horses, plus Wang Feng's troops, with his only few hundred people and Xu Naizhao's Qing army, can they withstand it? If a large number of expatriates are killed and injured in the war, no one dares to think about the consequences!

The most nervous thing is Xu Naizhao and Wu Jianzhang, foreigners may be able to survive if they fall into the hands of the Taiping Army, but they are certain to die!

The atmosphere in the room was tense like a bowstring, and the soldier stammered: "Gentlemen, Wang Feng has brought about a thousand people and more than two hundred carriages, and is currently on the edge of the western boundary of the concession, and has not entered. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, only bringing a thousand people, obviously not to attack the concession, Wen Xian said with a calm face: "Since he is here, then we will go and meet him for a while." ”

The rest of the people nodded one after another and walked out with Wen Xian.

Alice showed a very complicated look, she hated Wang Feng is true, but this hatred is based on hostility, and the little favor in her selfish heart is engraved in the depths of her soul like a brand, and what she is entangled with is, do you want to see him?

'Wang Feng, you executioner, I'll go and see your proud appearance! Alice gritted her teeth and rushed out!

Since the opening of the Shanghai Concession, there have been more than 1,000 expatriates from Britain, France, and the United States, and at first, except for the local 500 peasants, no Chinese, including compradors serving foreign banks, were allowed to live, but after the Xiaodaohui uprising, 20,000 people escaped from the county town of Shanghai and stayed as refugees, forming a situation in which Huayi lived together.

At that time, the western line of the British Concession was located on Xizang Road in present-day Shanghai, Wang Feng stood outside the concession line and looked into the distance, although the front was far less prosperous than dozens of later, but there were already many Western-style buildings, in addition to various foreign banks and financial institutions, there were also church-centered buildings, such as monasteries, astronomical observatories, etc., and at this time, on the balcony of the higher building, there were many foreigners looking nervously, not far from the concession, there was a large group of refugees under black pressure.

Hong Xuanjiao also stood on tiptoe, looked curiously, and couldn't help but sigh: "Wang Feng, I'll be honest with you, although the ghosts are our enemies and have invaded our land, they are indeed better than us in urban planning, you look at the street, it is wide and neat, and the houses on the side of the road are also scattered, unlike Tianjing, which gives people a chaotic feeling as soon as they enter." ”

Wang Feng said with emotion: "Foreigners are greedy, arrogant, and have many bad problems, but they are rigorous and full of exploration spirit, and their personal sense of honor and sense of responsibility for the country is far stronger than that of Chinese.

At the time of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Chinese were still vigorous, but Cheng Zhu Lixue, who began in the Song Dynasty, destroyed the Chinese's enterprising spirit from the foundation, and since then, they have been insensitive, have to get by, have a full stomach and have nothing to worry about, with money, the first thing that comes to mind is not investment and development, but to enjoy squandering, if the Chinese can have half of the sense of honor and responsibility of foreigners, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs two hundred years ago, it would not end up as a dead country.

I'll tell you the truth, if someone took refuge in a foreign race during the Han and Tang dynasties, who was not scolded by the world, and from the beginning of the fifth **, there were people who voted for the Khitan, those who voted for the party, those who voted for the Jurchen, and those who voted for Mongolia, especially half of the reason for the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty was due to the Belt and Road Party, and the first to go down to the south of the Yangtze River at the end of the Ming Dynasty was not the Eight Banners of Manchuria and the Eight Banners of Mongolia, but the Eight Banners of the Han Army, which is very ironic, right? In the past 1,000 years, China's traitors have been thousands of times greater than those of Western countries, and foreigners do have many aspects worth learning from. ”

"Hey~~" Hong Xuanjiao also sighed, temporarily lost the mood to speak, and after a while, he suddenly pointed inward: "Wang Feng, they are here." ”

In the reluctant retreat of the refugees, Wen Xian and the others came out in the company of two or three hundred soldiers, all of them with gloomy faces, Wang Feng's attention was still Alice, today's Alice did not wear the kind of cake skirt that showed half of her breasts, but wore a female knight's outfit, white shirt, black vest, wide pants and knee-high leather boots, looking strong and graceful, but Alice was also cold-faced, and she didn't even look at herself!

Several high-level leaders led by Wen Xian were looking at Wang Feng and his soldiers, Wang Feng was still smiling, but in their eyes, it was no longer a sign of demeanor, but with a hint of victorious arrogance, Wu Jianzhang couldn't help but snort hatefully: "It's just a moment of pride, wait for the foreigner army to come, see how long he can laugh?" ”
