The brawl between the French and the Germans did not last long, and was stopped by nearby security guards and police, during which a few people who were dazed or did not take the police to heart actually dared to do something to the police, and the result was naturally the police to the ground and handcuffed.

The rest of the French, after looking at the guns on the policemen, did not dare to act rashly.

What's more, there are many Chinese nearby, and there is a team of 'Germans' next to them. These Frenchmen have no doubt that if they continue to do it themselves, these 'Germans' will definitely take advantage of the situation and clean up with the police.

So after dragging the Frenchmen who were pressed to the ground, these members of the officer corps from France were very honest.

The Germans were significantly better treated than the French, who had learned some lessons.

After all, they did not provoke this incident, and since the end of the Shandong Campaign, these German soldiers have obtained permission to operate in Beijing, Tianjin and Shandong, and they are not as ignorant of the situation in China as the French, and they know very well that these Chinese policemen are not easy to deal with, and if they dare to resist, they will be thrown into the detention cell of the police station for three or five days, and if they don't do well, they will even be thrown into confinement. In addition, Europe is now fighting lively, and the distance between China and Germany is so far away, even if they really encounter something, Germany can't give them a breath, so the police just intervened, they have obediently stepped aside, and then just smiled and watched the French being cleaned up—————— although they had not experienced the war, but they hated the French. Now they are naturally very happy to see the French being cleaned up.

————————————————————

Due to the particularity of the museum, there are security guards in the Forbidden City. There are also quite a few police officers who are licensed to carry guns, and there is even at least a battalion of garrisons stationed around the museum.

These measures are mainly used to prevent those who are bold and outspoken.

In fact, this is also a helpless move, there are too many treasures hidden in the Palace Museum, maybe one day some thieves who can't stand the temptation will come to the door. In this era, guns are very rampant, although Yan Shao has thought about implementing a gun ban, but this is not something that can be done in a short period of time after all. It will take a while longer. Although the security in the country is much better than it was two years ago, it is limited to that, and in fact, there are still bandits in some remote areas. The ordinary militia had nothing to do with them, and if the regular army was dispatched, they would immediately hide in the mountains. Even Cai Ye and Jiang Baili had to admit that the suppression of bandits was a big project. It will take at least five to ten years to completely deal with these car bandits and road rages.

What's more, in addition to some local artifacts in the museum. There are also some foreign cultural relics, including the "Portland vase", which has a history of more than 1,800 years, which is priceless, in other words, the museum not only has to face the threat of local thieves, but also from abroad, so the defense must be reliable.

Not to mention measures such as vaults in the museum itself, arming is also a kind of security.

This is one of the reasons why there is a garrison in addition to security and police in the museum.

In case of special circumstances, they even have the right to shoot outside the [Cultural Heritage Zone]. In fact, this right has been used twice so far. After all, there are always some outlaws who are tempted by money, not to mention the priceless treasures that are kept in museums. For example, treasures such as [Qingming Riverside Map] ...

Prosperous antiques, troubled gold.

Although it is not a prosperous era now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the troubled times have passed, and even if it is not a prosperous era, the next one is not much worse, and the antique thing has begun to show its original value.

Many people who are interested in cultural relics have begun to spend a lot of money to collect.

Cultural relics such as "Qingming Riverside Map" are naturally the most interesting among them, especially those who claim to be collectors, but do not know what the law is.

These kinds of people don't know what a public museum is, they only know that if they don't grab something in front of them, then they are the biggest idiots in the world. However, the museum's defensive power on the surface is very strong after all, so there are not many thieves who dare to come in.

Even if they come in, most of them are more targeted thieves, for example, when they are interested in a certain cultural relic, or when some rich people offer a high reward for a certain cultural relic, there are really few who dare to 'loot', and even fewer who dare to use guns.

After all, attempted theft is not the same as the crime of rebellion, not to mention the possibility of being shot in the process of resisting.

But stupid humans ...

There are also two who resist, as mentioned earlier...

In the end, their results were also miserable, the first one was killed three and two were captured alive...

There were no casualties due to the use of tear gas by the garrison and police.

The latter one, perhaps having heard what happened to the previous team, was actually equipped with gas masks, and only one of the seven people survived, but two people from the police and garrison were also killed, and one was wounded.

As for those who were captured alive, even the lightest were sentenced to five years in prison, and the heaviest were directly indefinite, that is, those who resisted. It can be regarded as their bad luck, just when Yan Shao needs to set a model.

At the same time, since the museum is often frequented by thieves, the garrison and police inside are moving quickly. This is also one of the reasons why in the process of fighting, the police wondered why it would come so quickly.

By the way, due to the relatively tight defense, not a single cultural relic has been taken out of the museum until its opening, and the most dangerous one is just approaching the city wall.

On the contrary, the number of cultural relics in the museum has gradually increased, and the main reason for this is that some more patriotic collectors have taken the initiative to put their collection of cultural relics in the museum for safekeeping, or even donate them altogether.

The other one is even simpler. The museum itself is national, though. But the income belongs to you, and in addition to that, you can also pull some sponsorship from all walks of life, and those celebrities are usually willing to spend some money on it. Therefore, after deducting the cost of maintenance, the remaining money can be used by the museum to protect (buy) cultural relics, in addition to salaries...

Coupled with the support of the Yushi Group and the national government, museums usually do not consider financial issues.

And after getting such artifacts as Portland vases, the museum even plans to follow the British Museum's approach and divide a single museum into multiple museums.

In addition to the current main body, it is divided into [Oriental Pavilion], [Middle East Pavilion], [Africa Pavilion], [European Pavilion], [American Pavilion] and [Egypt Pavilion].

Among them, the Oriental Pavilion mainly includes civilizations such as Japan, Korea, Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia and India. Ancient India is naturally the representative of this, and because of its important position in modern times, Japanese civilization is also relatively representative. In addition, there are such as Angkor Wat in Cambodia (in 1907, Siam returned Siem Reap, Battambang and other provinces to Cambodia, and Angkor Wat was also returned to Cambodia. ）。 The Middle East Pavilion naturally includes many countries including Afghanistan, Iran, and Iraq, as well as civilizations such as Mesopotamia. As for the Africa Pavilion. In fact, the museum is also very hesitant to open this museum, after all, African blacks are discriminated against in this era, and there is no civilization worthy of praise, even if the museum is made, can there be anything worth appreciating...

But since there are so many pavilions, it is natural to build another [African pavilion].

As for the [European Pavilion], needless to say, it is mainly some civilizations in Europe. Such as the Greek civilization, and the Portland vase they bought from the United Kingdom. It was placed in the European Pavilion.

In addition, there is the Pavilion of the Americas, and modern countries like the United States or Brazil (7:1 Bloodbath) are certainly of little archaeological value. So this museum is mainly about the three major civilizations of the Americas, the so-called Inca civilization, the Mayan civilization and the Aztec civilization...

The Egyptian civilization, on the other hand, is listed separately because of its high status and its own belonging to African countries.

Of course, at present, these museums only have a few shelves, and the number of cultural relics in them is actually pitiful, and some museums even have only one or two cultural relics that are not worth mentioning. So not long ago, the museum also learned from the practice of foreigners and sent some archaeological teams to get some treasures from abroad—————— anyway, this era can be chaotic, even if you really get something, it doesn't matter.

Like Egypt now, isn't it just to let people mess around?

And because of the importance of Egypt, it is also an important exploration site for museums.

At the same time, because there is nothing in those branch libraries for the time being, they are all closed for the time being, and we will talk about it when it will be a little larger. At present, there is only one [European Pavilion] that can be opened, and this is because of the relationship between Elenor and her sisters who have collected a lot of precious cultural relics from Europe.

In addition to these branch museums, the museum also plans to build an [Industrial Revolution Museum] to mainly record some things during the Industrial Revolution. In addition, there is the mechanical museum, which mainly collects cars, airplanes, etc., which may not be anything in later generations, but in this era it is really high-tech, and it is natural for the museum to want to do so.

There is also a zoological museum that mainly collects specimens of various rare animals. and the accompanying Insect Museum—————— which is also the museum with the lowest number of female employees.

But at the moment, the most important thing for museums is to get those museums right, and the rest are on the back burner. And except for an industrial hall, the others are still missing, after all, it costs money to collect those things. Whether it is social donations, government support or Yan Shao's sponsorship, it cannot be unlimited...

————————————————————

Not to mention the recent situation of the museum for the time being, because the museum itself is very well guarded, so those French and Germans fought not long after, they were subdued by the security guards and police, and then one by one handcuffed to the police station in the museum—————— even if there are no thieves, some thieves who get in are more annoying, so the duty of the police is to solve the problem of thieves in addition to preventing thieves.

But after handcuffing people back to the police station. The people at the police station also found it a little difficult to handle.

After all, one of them was the French officer corps, and the other was the Germans. Although there is now rumor that the government is about to declare war on Germany, it is not yet there. Moreover, it can be seen from the fact that these Germans can run around the country that their treatment is not bad, and they cannot be solved by dealing with the enemy country at all.

So when there was no other way, the police department had no choice but to send a message to the top to see what they could do.

After learning of this situation, whether it was Gu Weijun or Lei? Kopa and Marzan both felt a headache, after all, this kind of thing is really rare. But on the other hand, it can also be seen that there is a deep hatred between each other. Especially for those in the Air Force. If on the ground the Germans and the French were able to barely reach a draw, then in the air, the French were being unilaterally tortured by the Germans.

It was for this reason that these French officers were conducted. That's why they came across the ocean to China.

Of course, this does not mean that the French will fight whenever they see the Germans. It's just that this kind of thing usually only needs one person to do it, and then the rest will definitely follow along. Among those French officers, one officer and two younger brothers died on the battlefield. Coupled with the experience of being chased and beaten by the Germans in the air, now seeing a group of French people muttering in German at such a close distance to him, his mood is naturally very excited.

Even instinctively, he started to move...

Since the matter was relatively complicated this time, it didn't take long for the people from the legation to come to the door with government officials to solve the problem.

And after some questioning, these people also figured out the reason.

"The one who will do it first must be someone from your country...", a little helpless, Du Mianshan said to Wells.

At that time, there were too many onlookers. So this is almost conclusive evidence, which cannot be denied—————— there is no way. Who called too many witnesses.

Du Mianshan felt very troubled by this, after all, these French officers were also their guests, not to mention that their relationship was very special. But it was the French who provoked the matter, and although he was sent by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to solve the matter, it was obvious that he could not interfere with the Ministry of Police and the Ministry of Justice, because they were not the same department at all.

Hearing Du Mianshan's words, Wells was also a little helpless, but he still spoke. "Du, after all, they have just come down from the battlefield, and their emotions are inevitably a little ......... It's understandable to suddenly run into a German, and you can do it, not to mention ..."

"Mr. Counselor, do you mean to say that it is excusable that our soldiers have been attacked by officers of your country?" Nelson on the side looked a little annoyed, after all, this matter is not a matter of France, so the Germans naturally have to send people to watch. Moreover, now that China is mixing with France, they are also afraid that the Nationalist government will make some unfair judgments against Germany.

Nelson didn't say that it was okay, as soon as he spoke, Wilston's eyebrows were raised, and he was about to fight back.

Although he left Europe before the outbreak of the Great War, and it is not clear what happened in Europe, France and Germany are feuds, and they have been hostile to each other for a long time in the past few years, and now they are fighting again...

Seeing that the matter had not been resolved, the counselors of the two countries were about to make a fuss first, and Du Mianshan suddenly had a headache.

After wasting a lot of effort, Du Mianshan finally calmed down the turmoil between the two.

Then Du Mianshan, who had no choice, pushed the matter to the top. Just like the people at the police station, I'm going to see what they want to do.

————————————————————

Yan Shao also felt a little headache about this matter, but he still found Qin Zhen and Yan Yongnian—————— of course, as well as Gu Weijun, who was the foreign minister.

Now the former has officially become the Minister of Public Security of the National Government, and the latter has also become the Minister of Justice. The main reason for finding these two people is to know how this matter should be judged.

“…………… The Germans were the victims, and although they did not suffer in the brawl, and even took advantage of them, they were justified and should be acquitted, as for the French......... He should be detained for at least fifteen days, and all damages should be compensated to the injured person..."

Qin Zhen also knew how troublesome this matter was, so he didn't say too much about the guilt.

Yan Shao looked at Yan Yongnian, and after hesitating, Yan Yongnian also nodded.

Seeing that Yan Yongnian also agreed, Yan Shao looked at Gu Weijun again. After all, Gu Weijun is the foreign minister. Yan Shao asked him to come over this time, also to ask about the diplomatic issues that might arise in it.

Gu Weijun also knew Yan Shao's purpose for coming to him, so after lowering his head and thinking about it. Gu Weijun replied quickly. "If you think about it from a diplomatic point of view, these French are all officers sent by France, and it is better to be acquitted, so as not to affect the diplomatic relations between our country and France. Especially in this situation at the moment.

But if it is considered from other aspects, such as judicial sovereignty......... I would suggest that they be detained for a certain period of time, not for too long, but if they have to. The 15 days proposed by Minister Qin and Minister Yan just now I think it is good, and the sentence is moderate. It's not very serious, but it doesn't mean there isn't any punishment......... It is absolutely impossible to go without punishment in this matter, after all, if this is the beginning, similar things may happen in the future. That's when things get harder..."

At this time, if it is Tang Shaoyi and others here. may persuade Yan Shao to turn a big thing into a small thing and a small thing. For veteran diplomats, they are accustomed to this kind of thing. But Gu Weijun is now young and vigorous, and he has not suffered any losses, he is still a standard nationalist, so he is naturally unwilling to let the French go so easily.

As he said, the punishment should not be too much, but it must not be without.

If a foreigner breaks the law in China, there is no punishment. So where is the sovereignty of the country?

Of course, you can also say that this time is special. It's a special case, but what if something like this happens in the future? There are not a few Germans staying in China now, and the French are not a small number of them, and there is no telling if something similar will happen at any point. If the French or Germans come to the door with this excuse at that time, what should Yan Shao do? Is it still a special case?

But the punishment should not be too much, because Gu Weijun was very aware of Yan Shao's plan, and knew that the Kuomintang government would probably send troops to Europe to participate in the war in the near future. And the most likely place is the battlefield on the Western Front where the French are located, and then they will need the French to bear most of the supply of weapons and ammunition, and even fire support, etc., if they provoke the French now...

Maybe they can't do anything with China, but I'm afraid the expeditionary force will have to suffer a little.

————————————————————

Just as he was talking, Lu Ying walked in from outside, and then whispered in Yan Shao's ear.

Today's Lu Ying is Yan Shao's personal secretary, and she is very beautiful in a decent secretary outfit. Sometimes Yan Shao even asked her to wear it like this when she was in the bedroom, as for what to do......... I have to say this...

The reason why Lu Ying came over is very simple, Lei? Kopa came here to talk to Yan Shao about what had just happened.

"This old man came very quickly..."Shaking his head helplessly, Yan Shao glanced at Qin Zhen and the others. You go to the conference room first, and I'll talk to the old man, and I hope this matter will be resolved a little better..."

After signaling Qin Zhen and Yan Yongnian to leave first, Yan Shao stayed in the office, and he already understood Lei in his heart? Copa's intention. Sure enough, after seeing Yan Shao, Lei? Kopa soon offered to hope that Yan Shao would acquit the French officers who had been fighting, and of course, because of the relationship between the two and the two countries, Ray? Copa's tone was very polite. After all, the relationship between China and France is getting closer and closer, and the detention of a group of French military officers who have come to China for exchanges at this time is definitely not a good thing, and it may even affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

However, in the face of thunder? Copa's request, but Yan Shao shook his head.

Not to mention that he couldn't tolerate this kind of thing happening in the first place, just now that this matter has spread, Yan Shao can't easily let people go.

In fact, Yan Shao even suspects that the brawl at the museum will likely make the front page of major newspapers across the country tomorrow morning.

This is not surprising, after all, there were too many onlookers at that time. In addition, the museum itself is a very important place, and there are many journalists who come and go on a regular basis. What's more, this time the matter is so sensitive, it is almost impossible to say that it will not spread...

So soon Yan Shao expressed his concerns, and hoped that Lei? Copa understands.

Although Yan Shao has his own considerations, and he also expressed this concern.

But Ray? Copa also had his own considerations, after all, he was detained this time by a group of French officers on active duty, and he was also an officer corps who came to China as a representative. A group of French officers were detained in a foreign country for fighting, which has never happened in the history of France, not to mention that they are still fighting some Germans, and if the news is transmitted back home, they may also be regarded as heroes by the French, so Ray? Kopa has to find a way to get them out, the problem is that Yan Shao can't release them at all, and the conflict between these two positions also makes Yan Shao and Lei? Copa's meeting ended unhappily.

And the end result is to cast a shadow over the relationship between the two governments.

Because of the provocation and fighting, the French officers were all put in the detention cells of the police station, and they were detained for 15 days. The Germans, on the other hand, were acquitted because they were victims and were justified in self-defense, although they took advantage of the brawl.

After the news broke, although the matter was treated coldly. But it did have some impact, especially the French government behind the scenes, who had never been insulted in this way. Yes, China does have the shadow of a great power now, but after all, France has been a great power in Europe for hundreds of years, and even once almost unified the whole of Europe, so that the rest of Europe had to make an alliance specifically against France, for such a power, this kind of humiliation is absolutely intolerable. If it weren't for the excitement of the fight with the Germans, I'm afraid the French would have come to the door looking for trouble.

But even so, the French had no interest in airplanes at all. Naturally, there were also those French officers who came to visit—————— who were not interested in being locked up in a detention cell for half a month not long after arriving in China, and they would no longer have a good impression of the country.

If not Ray? Copa also had the insistence of the military attache of the French legation, and I am afraid that these people had already taken a boat back to France as soon as they left the police station. Although they agreed to visit, the faces of the French were filled with indignation, but when they arrived at the army aviation base near Beijing and witnessed the performance of the Chinese army aviation units, the French officers opened their mouths wide one by one.

Because in their eyes, the performance of these Chinese aircraft is almost exactly the same as that of German aircraft on the Western Front. At the same time, they also understand that what is the reason for thunder? Copa: They were just as annoyed, but they still insisted on letting them come.

Not because they are less knowledgeable, but precisely because they know very well that this is exactly the kind of technique that France needs...

Unlike the bureaucrats in Paris, these French officers came down from the battlefields of the Western Front, and knew very well how much they had suffered in the skies of the Western Front. Although two officers were so angry that they wanted to return to Europe regardless of it, many more abandoned their antipathy to China and supported the deal with China.

Because they knew very well that this technique would save the lives of many French pilots.

Compared to these, their faces are completely secondary. (To be continued......)
