Chapter 350: Protest

"Protest? Your Excellency, you have confused me, is there any issue worth protesting between China and France? Emperor Yang said to Bi Sheng inexplicably, it is said that he should not take this job, but considering that Xue Fucheng may not be able to be so shameless as him, Emperor Yang still decided to go out in person, and in addition, it is also to have some fun for himself, after all, it is also a very interesting thing to play the French.

"Your Majesty, it is unacceptable for your ** team to board the French protectorate of Annan without the permission of the French government, and the ** squadron must immediately stop this kind of behavior that affects the relations between the two countries." Bi Sheng said rhetorically, in front of Xue Fucheng, he may dare to say the word aggression, but in front of Yang Feng, he doesn't have the guts, talking to an emperor and talking to a democratically elected person, that is not a level at all, which is also an important reason for Yang Feng to take this job.

"Your Excellency, I think you are making a bit of a fuss, first of all, regarding the relationship between your country and Annam, we all know that His Majesty the King of Annam has publicly announced that he will no longer recognize the treaties you signed before, and of course there is no international precedent for whether the protected country has the right to terminate the protective relationship with the suzerain. But there is no treaty between you that prohibits them from doing so, so this is a complex legal issue, and whether France will continue to have suzerainty over Vietnam until this issue is resolved still needs to be studied by professionals, and it is difficult for us to discuss it clearly in a short period of time here, and besides, this is a matter for both of you, and it has nothing to do with China, so we don't need to waste time on this issue.

But the problem now is that there is a war between you and you in Hue, and as far as I know, it is still raging, and in this case I must provide protection for my people, which is my duty as their monarch, and it is also an international practice. Yang Feng said seriously.

This is indeed a common practice at this time, but it is a common practice for the great powers to protect the overseas Chinese of small countries, and the protectorates of the great powers.6

"陛xià. The French team has the ability to protect the safety of all foreign nationals in Hue. Bi Sheng said hurriedly.

"Your Excellency, your words are a bit exaggerated, just now the Chinese consul general in Hue also said in the telegram that in the explosion caused by the Vietnamese army's shelling of your army's artillery position, four of your country's expatriates were unfortunately killed. Yang Feng said lightly.

"Huh!?" Bi Sheng really didn't know this, the barrels and packed shells that were blown up did hit a French trading house, causing four deaths and six injuries in the trading house. Among them are women and children.

"Your Majesty, since it's a war, it's inevitable that there will be casualties." However, he knew that Yang Feng would not lie to him, so he said stubbornly.

"Your Excellency, are not your words contradictory? You say that your team has the ability to protect the diaspora of various countries, but you now admit that there will inevitably be casualties in war, and it may seem normal for you to have a few civilian deaths, but for me, it is an unforgivable thing for any subject to die innocently. It is my dereliction of duty as emperor, so I must use all means at my disposal to ensure the safety of the lives and property of every Chinese expatriate, including the use of the army. Yang Feng said.

"Your Majesty, what if the situation in Hue is calm?" Bi Sheng decided not to dwell on this issue anymore. The Chinese have already boarded 6 and will certainly not withdraw their troops, and now we must clarify the next step.

"Of course, as long as peace is restored in Vietnam. The safety of our diaspora is assured, and I certainly will not continue to keep my troops there. Emperor Yang sued him with certainty.

With his reply, Bi Sheng had nothing to say. I don't think the emperor would go back on his word, but he didn't notice that Emperor Yang was talking about Vietnam instead of Annam.

Looking at the back of this guy leaving, Emperor Yang smiled happily, when the troops protecting overseas Chinese arrived in Hue, what else could not be born? For example, the French army attacked the Chinese soldiers, or the French artillery shells, bullets or something fell on the Chinese consulate, and the Chinese expatriates unfortunately died in the war, in short, as long as the army went there openly, the next thing was nothing more than playing a wicker lake, and he had experience in the next century to do this, and maybe a Beibu Gulf was also very good.

At this time, after learning the news that the Chinese overseas Chinese escort troops had boarded 6, Colonel Philip did not care about the impact, he has now lost more than a thousand dead and wounded plus escaped, according to this degree before the Chinese arrived, there was absolutely no hope of attacking the royal city, since this did not care about the impact, this guy used the poison gas bombs he carried, and he still had two surviving mortars in his hands, replaced with mustard gas shells and fired directly at the battery.

"Madamn, these French people are so shameless!" Looking at the clouds of yellow poisonous mist rising around him, Chen Hu hurriedly put a gas mask on his face, and urgently put on a polyethylene protective suit, and his soldiers also took out a full set of protective equipment, which is the standard configuration of Chinese soldiers, no matter where they fight, they have to carry it, but they are dumbfounded to protect those Vietnamese.

"Retreat, retreat to the palace!" Chen Hu wore a gas mask and yelled at the clan beside him, afraid that he would not hear and deliberately made a gesture to walk at the same time, in fact, he didn't need to say that these people also collapsed in an instant, and the murderous name of the gas bomb was about to be mythologized at this time, these Vietnamese people had heard of it even if they were lonely and unheard, and the French army had also used it when dealing with Huanghua Detective before, but it was difficult for people to hide in the jungle sporadically to have an effect.

Looking at the poisonous fog on the fort, Colonel Philip nodded with satisfaction, and then signaled his subordinates to start attacking, he didn't notice that on the three-story building of the People's Bank five hundred meters away from the battlefield, reporters from several countries, including Tomorrow Daily and People's Radio, were taking pictures with the latest color cameras!

"Oh my God, they're using mustard gas, these French guys are crazy? They just signed the Beijing Convention! A German journalist exclaimed.

"Maybe their commander thinks that if he doesn't use this kind of thing, he won't be able to breach this palace in his lifetime, right?" An Italian journalist said with a sneer on his face that the French team's clumsy performance in this battle had become their laughing stock, and even the British reporters couldn't help but laugh at these stupid people. Although the British fought equally badly in South Africa, at least it was in battle with the whites, and the Boers were known for their ability to fight for a long time, but what was the matter? The French 6th Army, which had a multi-fold advantage, was beaten all over the ground by a group of monkeys, and it is estimated that this time the hat of shame of the great powers has finally been taken over.

The broadcasting studio of the People's Radio Annan Station was in this building, and when the French were using poison gas bombs, the news was also broadcast by guò shooters, and then the People's Radios in various places began to broadcast around the world in a relay way, and it didn't take long for distant Europe to know that the French, who had just signed the Beijing Convention, had violated the Convention in Vietnam, Germany, England, Italy, Spain... One by one, these States parties immediately stood up and condemned the atrocities committed by the French army.

Poor Colonel Philip would have vomited blood if he had heard these sounds.

What about the atrocities, and now it is we who are being slaughtered like dogs!

The French soldiers, who were demoralized by the gas bombs, thought that the hateful monkeys on the other side should lie on the ground and wail and die like whipped dogs under the mustard gas, so they completely relaxed their vigilance, and one by one swarmed with hatred, ready to pass through the small bridge and blow open the city gate, rushing in and kicking Nguyen Phuc Zhao's ass.

It's a pity that just when nearly a thousand soldiers all rushed to the moat at once, scrambling to rush over, on the fort that was still shrouded in poisonous gas, suddenly guns rang out, countless bullets whistled, and the French army that was caught off guard fell in pieces in an instant, and the rest were stunned by this sudden blow, and after reacting, the remnants of the French army collapsed again.

"Bastard, who can tell me why this is?" Looking at the subordinates in front of him who were rushing backwards in frenzy, Colonel Philip roared with grief and indignation, he really didn't understand what was going on today, why he couldn't break through this wall no matter how hard he tried.

The clumsy appearance of the French army has once again become a laughing stock of journalists from all over the world, and one guy even made a bet on whether the French could defeat the Vietnamese, but unfortunately no one bet with him, and it is really hard to say from the current situation.

"Hey, look what's going on over there!" Suddenly, a reporter exclaimed, and the reporters, who were laughing at the French with great interest, immediately followed his gaze, and at the location of a French comptoir in the north of the city, billowing smoke was rising with the light of the fire.

"Oh my God, poor Monsieur Hollande!" A reporter could not help but mourn in silence for the owner of the house, but his words immediately reminded the reporters that Hollande was a grain merchant who had always made money by exploiting the Vietnamese, and that he had aroused countless hatreds on weekdays, and that it was obvious that today was very suitable for complaining and revenge, especially when the French army had suffered heavy losses and the situation was very bad. Moreover, there are a large number of Vietnamese defeated troops, and there are even many who have not joined any side until now, and in a city without constraints, it may be difficult for them to resist the temptation of money.

As if to verify their suspicions, sporadic gunfire was heard in the direction of the Industrial Bank in Hue, and the real chaos in the city finally began. (To be continued......)
