Lin Yuan and Shen Wanqing stopped moving, they didn't have to look back to know who was coming.

Sure enough, Chen Fei walked in from the door with a leisurely step, Lin Yuan let go of Shen Wanqing, turned back to Chen Fei and smiled: "I knew it was you, why are you here?" ”

Chen Fei said with a smile: "The General Intelligence Bureau and our division are preparing for a joint operation, so I'll take a look." ”

Lin Yuan looked at Shen Wanqing and asked, "Joint operation?" What joint action? ”

Shen Wanqing said: "It was planned by Zhang Hua to rescue the trapped mission personnel by force. ”

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said: "Rescue by force is a way out, but the difficulty of rescue by force is not low, in the Iranian hostage incident of our time, Iranian young students detained members of the US Embassy, and the US military decided to send special forces to rescue them, but the result ended in failure." ”

Chen Fei smiled: "We will not fail. ”

Lin Yuan frowned and said, "All battles have the possibility of failure, and special operations are no exception, how dare you guarantee not to fail?" ”

Chen Fei laughed and said, "It's very simple, if you don't act, you won't fail!" We don't even know where the members of the mission are being held, how can we get rid of them? ”

Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Haven't you investigated the location where they were held yet?" ”

Shen Wanqing said: "Yes, the place where they are being held is very hidden, and we have not yet investigated. ”

Chen Fei said with a smile on the side: "How many days have passed, are the people of the General Intelligence Bureau eating dry rice?" Why haven't they been held yet? ”

Shen Wanqing ignored Chen Fei's teasing, gave him a blank look, then turned her head over, Chen Fei smiled, turned her head and asked Lin Yuan: "Do we want to rescue them by force?" ”

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "Let's take a look at the situation, it's hard to say now." ”

Chen Fei said with a smile: "Do you want us to make a bet, bet that this matter will definitely be solved by force in the end." ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "I won't make this kind of bet that I can't win, wait until I contact the comrades of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to see the situation." ”

Chen Fei pursed his lips disdainfully, Lin Yuan picked up the phone, and said, "Tomorrow, will the envoy we send to Finland have another meeting with the Finnish king?" Well, that's good, in this way, you inform our negotiating comrades that tomorrow, with the toughest attitude, ask to see the members of our mission, and if they don't let us meet, you can threaten to declare war, just say that I said it. ”

Lin Yuan put down the phone and smiled at Shen Wanqing and Chen Fei: "Your opportunity has come......

After receiving Lin Yuan's phone call, the diplomatic department immediately conveyed Lin Yuan's original words to the special envoy who was holding talks with King Gottorp in Helsinki, the capital of Finland.

Li Jingfang's father, Li Hongzhang, died before Lin Yuan overthrew the Qing court, so he did not see the fall of the Qing Dynasty that he had worked so hard for all his life, but Li Jingfang saw the Qing court overthrown. Li Jingfang made a contribution to Lin Yuan's capture of Emperor Guangxu, and if he hadn't told Lin Yuan that Emperor Guangxu would have escaped on a passenger ship, Emperor Guangxu might have established a Qing government in exile in the United States by now.

Li Jingfang had rich experience in foreign affairs, so he became a diplomat under Lin Yuan, and he had a good personal relationship with Xu Jingcheng, so he served as Lin Yuan's special envoy and went to Helsinki, Finland to meet with King Gottorp.

In the next day, Li Jingfang and King Gotop had another round of negotiations, and the previous rounds of negotiations had been carried out no less than ten rounds, but there was no progress at all, and King Gotop was delaying the release of the members of the mission.

At the beginning of this meeting, Li Jingfang changed his previous gentleness and said in a fierce voice: "The detention of members of the mission is simply a strange news in the world, and it is nothing less than a great shame for our China. ”

King Gotop was also a little frightened when he saw Li Jingfang angry, and hurriedly smiled: "We also feel sorry that such a thing happened, and we are also actively discussing with the Finnish Youth Patriotic Association to release the detained members of the mission......

Li Jingfang snorted coldly and said: "King Gotop, I can tell you clearly, we Lin Shuai have borne huge pressure on this matter, in order not to let the country have big fluctuations, Lin Shuai did not let the newspaper report this matter, but the paper can't contain the fire, one day this matter will be exposed, and when the domestic resentment is boiling, Lin Shuai can't help himself." ”

King Gotop smiled and said, "We try our best...... Exert oneself...... Haha......"

Li Jingfang said: "Lin Shuai has the latest instructions, I want to see that the members of the mission are safe and sound, so let's do it, on April 25th, I want to see the members of the mission, if you don't agree to this condition, then wait for the war!" ”

King Gotop exclaimed in surprise and smiled reluctantly, "It's not worth going to war for such a thing, right......?"

Li Jingfang stood up and said, "Is it a trivial matter to detain the members of our Chinese mission? No, this is a big thing, a big thing, is it tolerable or unbearable? Please reply to me immediately, will I be able to meet with the members of the Mission on April 25th? ”

King Gotop hurriedly said, "It's no problem to meet, I'll arrange it at once." ”

Li Jingfang glanced at King Gotop, brushed his sleeves away, and the other members of the mission followed, King Gotop wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and returned to the dormitory, and the German ambassador Sumer said with some displeasure: "Dear King Gotop, how can you promise the Chinese?" ”

King Gotop was also not happy, thinking that you Germany and England did not want China to occupy the Baltic Sea, so you did not come forward yourself, hid behind us Finland, and let us Finland be your shield, and now you are blaming me!

King Gotop did not have a good face either, and said directly: "The Chinese are going to declare war!" Can I not say yes? ”

Sumer frowned, and his tone of voice seemed to be teaching an ignorant child: "Chinese's declaration of war is just a temptation, you will expose your weakness if you agree, and Chinese will seize this weakness and attack you fiercely in the future......"

King Gottorp did not wait for Sumer to finish speaking, and then said impatiently: "There is something to talk about tomorrow, I am already very tired, and I need to rest!" ”

Sumer had no choice but to leave, and King Gotop sighed, called one of his attendants, and said, "Go and send a message to the president of the Finnish Patriotic Youth Association, and ask him to bring the members of the mission to the palace on April 25." ”
