Xiao Zhenlei and others finally evacuated safely, after the eagle killed more than a dozen patrols of the French Capture House and the armed members of the International Chamber of Commerce, Wang Yaqiao, Xiao Zhenlei and others who came later broke into the French Concession with those rescued revolutionaries, and then they scattered in the French Concession to go their separate ways, to do this, Xiao Zhenlei asked himself to be benevolent to those revolutionaries, as for whether they can completely escape after everyone disperses depends on their luck, after all, it is much safer in the French Concession, Moreover, the patrol of the legal arrest room did not know those revolutionaries. In order to create more time for those revolutionaries to escape, Xiao Zhenlei and Wang Yaqiao and others took ten revolutionaries with limited mobility to ride war horses into the French Concession and then rampage from east to west.

In the French Concession, Xiao Zhenlei and the others passed through a mess, the patrols in the legal capture room suffered heavy casualties, although the patrols had guns, but compared to the weapons carried by Xiao Zhenlei and others, they were just some burning sticks, how could they be their opponents? Even Huang Jingrong and others, who have always liked to show their faces in front of foreigners, hid with interest, and did not dare to come out to find trouble with Xiao Zhenlei and others.

From the area of Gu's house, he left the boundary of the French Concession and entered the Chinese realm not long after, and Xiao Zhenlei and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone dismounted and rested in a remote place.

Xiao Zhenlei and Wang Yaqiao led the horse and sat down under a tree, and threw Wang Yaqiao a cigarette. Xiao Zhenlei lit a foreign fire and lit a cigarette while saying, "Brother Jiuguang." There are a few things I want to explain to you before we separate, first, this time the government and the French Concession are miserable enough, I estimate that the government and the French Concession will be turned upside down, and then it is likely to cause a bigger storm, we can not only guard against the government, but also against the French Concession and the British Concession, if such a big thing happens, they will definitely increase the intensity of investigation. Maybe spies will be sent to investigate secretly, remember, don't trust anyone, don't let the brothers come out during this time; Second, these dozen or so revolutionary party brothers who have difficulty moving will be handed over to you to bring back to them to recuperate from their wounds, and if you can persuade them to join us, you will be persuaded to do so. When they heal from their injuries, let them go if they want to go, and give each person a few dollars to make a coil."

"Got it!" Wang Yaqiao took a puff of cigarette and asked, "Is there anything else you want to explain?" ”

Xiao Zhenlei thought for a while and said, "Third, although our operation was successful. But there were also a lot of brothers sacrificed, I just looked at it, and six died. Wounded four, in the course of the battle. There are many innocent people who have died in the chaos, and the government will definitely not take care of this kind of thing. But we can't ignore it, even if this matter has nothing to do with us, we can't stand by and send some pensions and condolences to the families of these dead brothers, so that the injured brothers can recuperate after they go back, and secretly investigate the situation of those people who died in the chaos, send some money to their families, don't worry about money, you contact me after you count a number, and I will send it to you; Fourth, send a few capable men to the factory guard team to enter it to conduct a secret investigation, I will greet Cai Guodong and Ma Hanlong, and ask them to recruit the people you sent in the name of recruiting people, I am worried that the Qing court and the concession will send secret agents to infiltrate the escort team to investigate the source and size of our guns, although we have not found any clues for the time being, but we can't help but guard against it, once our secret is discovered by the secret agents they sent, both the Qing court and the concession will regard us as enemies, and the consequences will be very strict. Another thing is that we must not only focus on the Qing court, but also pay close attention to the concession, send people to blend into the core of power in the concession, keep abreast of the movements of the concession, and pay attention to uniting those Chinese who have a conscience and a sense of national righteousness, and these people are our help."

Wang Yaqiao nodded and said, "Okay, I remember!" ”

Provincial Government.

Daotai Cai Naihuang, Enahai, Zhixian Li Xiumei, and other important officials of Shanghai Province were almost all present, and the officials were all drinking tea, and no one spoke. Cai Naihuang and Enahai and other high-ranking officials had gloomy faces, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

Today, the Dharma field was robbed by the revolutionaries, and if this matter is reported, it will definitely be pierced, but if it is not reported, once it is known by the above, the consequences are very clear to everyone here.

Enahai looked left and right, and saw that no one was willing to come out to speak, he coughed twice and said: "Lord Cai, in my opinion, this matter can't be concealed if you want to, it is better to simply report all the details to the higher authorities in detail, as for what is the attitude of the above, what orders are issued down, that is a matter from above, we just need to obey it, at most we will be reprimanded, and we should not be dismissed, and we can't do nothing before the above orders come down, whether it is to show the above, or to maintain the prestige and face of the government." We should all have a reaction to today's events, you see? ”

After hearing this, Cai Naihuang secretly scolded in his heart, everything was done by you, you didn't discuss with me before and after you arrested the revolutionary party, and you didn't discuss it with me if you wanted to kill the head after you were arrested, but now that something happens, you will say beautiful things, so why don't you do a good job of safety before arranging the law field? Now poke out such a big basket, you can pat your ass and leave, and throw us a big trouble!

Cai Naihuang looked at Enahai with a blushing face and asked, "Then how does Lord Ego think our government should deal with it?" Do you have any ideas? ”

When En Nahai heard this, he arched his hand and said: "Today, the chaotic party has openly robbed the law field, which is openly provoking the authority of the imperial court and the government, so we must deal with the chaotic party with more drastic means, I think we can start from two aspects: First, on the bright side, we have sent people to set up card checks at various intersections of the city, not only the arrest of the Daotai Mansion and the county yamen is about to move, but even the merchants and soldiers of the Chengxiang Autonomous Office must join, and all those who are unidentified, speak fiercely, and are suspected of disrupting the party will be arrested. Second, post notices throughout the city. The news of a high reward for the rebellious party elements, as long as someone reports the news of the disruptive party. We'll give you a big prize! I didn't expect that last time we didn't take such a big action to pry the foundation of the chaotic party, but instead let them rob the law field, which shows that the power they hide in the shadows is already very terrifying, if they are allowed to develop again, the power reaches a certain stage, and they will inevitably rise up. Once they start an incident here, you should know what the consequences will be, and it's hard to say whether you can save the lives of your whole family! Third, in addition to deploying these actions on the surface, we will also send secret agents to go deep into all walks of life to investigate the traces of the revolutionary party, and I hope that Lord Cai and Master Li will hand over the spies of the Daotai Mansion and the Prefect Prefecture to the official to take charge, and when the official comes, he will also bring some people, and the secret investigation will be handed over to the official to do. As for the deployments on the surface, I will hand them over to you, I don't know what Lord Cai thinks? ”

In fact, Enahai wanted to take over all the command of the deployment, but he also knew that the revolutionary party made such a big move this time because the revolutionary party was really rampant, and on the other hand, because he was not well arranged. He was responsible for this by allowing the revolutionary party to take advantage of it, so he could only retain the power to investigate secretly. As for the right to deploy and command on the surface, it can only be handed over.

Cai Naihuang was satisfied after hearing this, and thought that Enahai was still a little interesting. He didn't want to take full command, but he still wanted to ask the others' opinions. "What do you think of what you say?"

The opinions of the officials below are varied, but what these people say is beneficial to themselves, after all, such a big action involves a lot of power and interests, and no one wants their power to be damaged, and they don't want their interests to be taken away by others.

Cai Naihuang just asked casually, and he didn't really intend to listen to these people's words, when these people were noisy and gossiping, he immediately stopped: "Enough, this official thinks what Lord E said is good, just follow Lord E's wishes, the spies of this Daotai Mansion and the spies of the Zhixian Yamen will be handed over to Lord E, and find the news of the chaos as soon as possible!" ”

French Concession, Luojiawan Xue Huali Road, Central Patrol Room Conference Room.

The chief inspector Melan roared like thunder: "Lawlessness, simply lawlessness!" It is really hateful and hateful that his revolutionary party has made trouble in China, and he has openly broken into our French Concession and shot and killed me 35 patrols, and this matter cannot be left as it is, we must do our best to find them and arrest them, the public board of directors and the consulate have already called, from now on, no revolutionaries will be allowed to operate in our French Concession, see one by one, arrest one by one, if the Qing court is interested, we will agree to extradite to the Qing court, and hand over the captured revolutionaries to the Qing court for disposal! ”

The bigwigs sitting on the left and right sides of the patrol room all looked at each other, and the Chinese inspector Cheng Ziqing asked: "Mr. Chief Inspector, I have no objection to the arrest of the revolutionary party, but wouldn't it be bad if the captured revolutionary party was extradited to the Qing court?" If we are caught, we can judge ourselves, so why should we hand it over to the Qing court? ”

Another Chinese detective, Ren Wenjiao, also said: "Yes, Mr. Chief Inspector, there is no need for us to hand over the disposal power to the Qing court, and the French Concession is not without prisons, and it is not impossible to conduct trials, and I also think there is no need to hand it over to the Qing court!" ”

After all, this time Xiao Zhenlei and others broke into the French Concession with their faces masked and swept all the way, killing and killing dozens of patrol people, causing a shock throughout Shanghai, and there were not a few French patrols and detectives who died, and the French inspectors and detectives sitting here certainly did not want to let go of the opportunity to take revenge, so after the Chinese inspector Ren Wenjiao objected, other French inspectors and detectives also expressed strong opposition.

In fact, the starting point of the Chinese inspectors Cheng Ziqing, Ren Wenjiao, Ding Yongchang, Chen Sanlin, Lu Jinchen, Zeng Jiuru and others who did not agree to hand over the captured revolutionary party to the Qing court for handling was completely different from these French inspectors and inspectors, and these Chinese inspectors believed that if the revolutionary party was handed over to the Qing court, it would definitely be a dead end, but if these revolutionary parties were disposed of by the French Concession itself, they and these Chinese inspectors could still mediate a thing or two, and maybe they could save the lives of some people, after all, they had a certain amount of power in their hands. It is not impossible to find a way to save the arrested revolutionaries from being executed.

And these French inspectors and inspectors completely want to avenge their colleagues and compatriots who were shot and killed by Xiao Zhenlei and others, after all, everyone is from France and belongs to compatriots, and they were killed by the Chinese in the concession, isn't this a provocation to the authority of France?

These people present were noisy, and almost all of them opposed the decision of the chief inspector Mailan, which made Mailan very annoyed, and when he saw the chaos in the conference room, he knocked on the table angrily and angrily: "Okay, what does the noise look like? If you want to quarrel and go out to quarrel, take off your uniform and get out of the patrol room to argue! ”

As soon as Mai Lan was threatened, both the French inspectors and the Chinese inspectors below were silent, and they lowered their heads one by one and didn't dare to say anything more.

Seeing that these people were honest, the anger in his heart also disappeared a little, and he felt that he couldn't chill the hearts of these people under him, and he still had to be appeased, he took a sip of coffee and explained: "Everyone, I understand what you think, if it were someone else, I would never explain anything to them, but for you, I think I still want to tell you my reasons, I made this decision completely out of many considerations, and it was also agreed by the above."

First of all, from a political point of view, we can't regard the revolutionary party as an enemy, the enemy of the revolutionary party is the Qing court, and the reason why we want to arrest them is because they disturbed the law and order in the French Concession and killed and injured our colleagues, which we cannot tolerate, so we want to arrest them, as for how to deal with them, I think we should leave them to the Qing court, this is the internal affairs of the Qing state, and they will solve it by themselves, and from this point of view, we will not leave other countries with the handle to interfere in the internal affairs of the Qing court.

Secondly, from the point of view of the security of the concession, if we dispose of those revolutionary parties on our own, the Qing court will not agree to it in the first place, and they will inevitably send a note to the public board and the consulate, and in addition, according to the crimes committed by the revolutionary party in killing and wounding so many of our colleagues, those people should be sentenced to hanging, and the other revolutionary parties are also their comrades, if we kill the captured revolutionary party, will the other revolutionary parties transfer their anger to our French concession? Those people are outlaws, they can take the bomb and die with others, they don't care about their own life and death, such people are too dangerous, I think we should not force them to be anxious, we only arrest people, if we want to kill them, we will scrape them to the Qing court to do, we will not be evildoers.

Thirdly, you must know that although our French Concession enjoys extraterritorial jurisdiction in the Qing Dynasty, you should be aware that the interrogators of the Syndicate are officials of the Qing court, and there was an agreement on the establishment of the Syndicate Commune, and if the case involves Westerners or Chinese servants hired by Westerners, the consuls of various countries will participate in the trial or observe the trial; Purely Chinese cases are tried by the Qing officials alone, and the French Concession cannot hear the case alone, so if the case is handed over to the trial office, is there any difference between it and the Qing court? Apparently not! ”

The French inspectors and inspectors were relieved when they heard this, and they no longer objected to Mai Lan's decision, but Cheng Ziqing and other Chinese inspectors were greatly disappointed.
