Chapter 244: Peaceful Settlement

Cadol and Bardon sat down, although their identities were terribly scared, but they couldn't ignore their faces and forced them to sit down calmly. Barden was more frightened than Cador, because he didn't know who these people were.

Besides, Cadoll is the governor after all, and it is okay if he surrenders if he is captured and killed, but as the commander of the garrison, what does Bardon do in the army, not to mention that he is in it, even if Cador has an accident, it is difficult for him to pass the blame.

Therefore, he was more afraid than Cador, even if these people let him go at this time, the French side would not spare him, so he was even more worried, and he did not resist Qiao Han's words, and sat down at the table. Qiao Han hated the two of them to the core, and the Snow Wolf Cottage he built was destroyed in the hands of two people, and the Snow Wolf Brigade was also eliminated, and Zhao Dele's whereabouts are still unknown.

According to the analysis, Zhao Dele was killed nine times out of ten, otherwise the snow fox's people were full of news in northern Vietnam, controlling the three counties and establishing the northern Vietnamese autonomous region, and the news spread all over the world, and Qiao Han returned to the team after hearing the news. There was no news from Zhao Dele, and there was no news from Dai Zong and Xue Ru who ordered to look around.

Qiao Han just looked at the two of them coldly, he was not Xiao Yong, he was not so impulsive, he sneaked into Hanoi with such a strong force, and he didn't catch these people to kill them. France is a country, not a small organization, Cadol and Bardon are just officials, kill them France will send other people, as long as France does not perish, the army will be transferred at any time, it is useless to kill two people.

Besides, the Snow Fox has no warships, no aircraft, and from Hanoi to the port of Haiphong, the French army has one cruiser, five gunboats, and a fleet with a total tonnage of more than 15,000 tons. At the three airfields of Hanoi, Haiphong and Sai Gang, an air force brigade, more than thirty aircraft, the French Army Snow Fox did not care, but could not destroy the air force and navy. For this reason, Xue Ru formulated this plan to carry out a beheading operation against the French troops stationed in Vietnam, not to kill, but to hold them hostage and force them to achieve the goal of Snow Fox.

Although Qiao Han hated the two of them to death, he couldn't kill them. According to the situation, not to mention that other people don't believe it, even Qiao Han doesn't believe it, and Xue Ru from the twenty-first century doesn't believe in such guarantees and agreements. So I didn't intend to get Cadol to promise anything, but just asked the French army to stop the offensive and buy time for a while.

With the combat effectiveness of Snow Fox's current 4,000 people and four brigades, he really didn't take the 20,000 French troops into account, but the Japanese army launched the Nanning Campaign, cut off the Haining Highway from China, and destroyed the Vietnam-Kunming Railway, which blocked Xue Ru's transportation plan, forcing her to solve the 21st Army attacking Nanning first, and then go back to solve the French problem. Therefore, Qiao Han was asked to use this method to make the French army stop the attack first and buy time for the snow fox.

Qiao Han, who had this purpose, led an elite brigade drawn from the Snow Fox Corps to secretly infiltrate Hanoi, and suddenly took action to arrest and imprison influential figures in the city and most of the French, and then arrested Cadol and Barden, just to achieve the goal.

Seeing the two of them sitting down, Qiao Han said, "Governor Kadol, I know you can speak Chinese, so we don't need to translate, just say it!" ”

Cadol understood that Qiao Han had something to ask for, that is, he would not kill himself easily, and he would be more at ease. But Bardon didn't speak Chinese, so Cadoll had to work as a translator. What if Bardon didn't know what the two men were talking about, and didn't know how to report back home in the future? I had to translate Qiao Han's words to Barden. He was forced to be an interpreter like a governor, and his heart was extremely unbalanced and indignant, but he had to bow his head under the eaves.

These snow foxes are so hateful, Hanoi is not heavily guarded, but there are also troops and police, so many people come in and don't know how Baldon manages it. Could it be that there are traitors within the French army, otherwise how could so many people enter the city with weapons? How did he know that Xue Ru came from modern society, and for things like forged documents, he didn't know how many times more advanced than this era, an era without laser anti-counterfeiting, and an era without the Internet, with only that simple official seal and printing technology, how could he block forged documents, so he was easily entered by Snow Fox Hanoi.

In total, there were only a few hundred policemen in the city, more than two thousand troops, and the snow fox came in a brigade of thousands of elites, which was not easy to take, so he and Barden became prisoners. Tell Barden what Qiao Han said and say, "What do you want?" ”

Qiao Han said: "In a word, order the French army to stop attacking the Ha Duong area, return the troops to their original station, and promise to let North Vietnam govern, and I will let you go, otherwise all the people I catch will die." ”

When Cadol translated these words to Barden, he jumped up: "Delusional, I am a French soldier, I will not give in, you can kill me." ”

The corner of Qiao Han's mouth was a sneer: "Balden, don't think I dare not kill you, you are not a fart in my eyes, if it weren't for our young lady's order, you would still be useful, for the lives of thousands of people in the Snow Wolf Cottage, I would have killed you a long time ago, would you not agree to a word?" ”

Cadol said to Bardon in French: "General, don't get excited, they are the Snow Fox Corps, you don't know this woman Xue Ru, it's not the two of us now, they control hundreds of French people and important people, if these people have problems, we will be sent to the gallows, and the family will be disgraced." ”

Bardon's contempt for Cadol's words was evident in his heart, and it was clear that he was greedy for life and afraid of death. But what he said is also the truth, many of the people who were arrested by the snow fox are also influential people in France, as well as some figures in the Kingdom of Vietnam, if these people are killed, they will not be able to be heroes, and they will keep their mouths shut for a while.

Cadoll said, "Captain Joe, these are the only things you have? ”

Qiao Han said: "That's all for the time being, as long as you stop attacking and retreating, the snow fox will also let you go." ”

Cadol nodded: "Very good, I promise you, let the people go!" ”

Qiao Han was stunned, how could the French agree so quickly? Pondering, "Governor Cadol, what do you use to guarantee?" So be it, you order the troops to be withdrawn, these people are hostages for the time being. ”

Cadol didn't intend to keep his promise at all, as long as he let the people go, whether he started a war or not, then he didn't have the final say? So I happily agreed. Seeing Qiao Han say this, I understand that no one is stupid, this kind of empty talk, can you believe that it is not a fool? Hurriedly shook his head: "No, what if we withdraw from the army and you don't let go?" ”

Qiao Han laughed: "Cadol, are you qualified to negotiate terms with me now?" It's okay not to retreat, you can try. Come on, shoot ten people who are caught, and if you don't agree to kill them all in batches. ”

"Yes," the soldier outside the door agreed. Cadoll trembled in his heart, sure enough, he was a snow fox devil, killing people without blinking. Hurriedly said: "Wait, I'll discuss it with General Balden." ”

The two of them talked in French, and Qiao Han couldn't understand what they said, but the translator behind Qiao Han kept telling Qiao Han about the conversation between the two people. Bardon is the same, it is easy to die generously, calmly and calmly, calm down, no one wants to die, he doesn't want to die, he has been hesitating.

Qiao Han interjected: "General Balden, you can't control the northern part of Vietnam, the Snow Fox is going to fight the Japanese devils, just borrowing the passage between Haiphong and Ha Long Port, as long as you don't embarrass the Snow Fox Corps, we have no intention of seizing Vietnam." It's far from France, and as long as we don't say it, I'm sure no one knows. You can continue to be your governors and generals. If we win the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, we will withdraw from Vietnam, and the two will still be peaceful. If you don't agree, for the sake of China's great cause of the War of Resistance Against Japan, then you can only kill you, France can not send troops from the country can not be done at once, as a soldier you know very well, what combat effectiveness the Snow Fox Brigade has, what do you think the French army has to win, I am afraid that the French president will not praise you, or think about it for yourself! ”

Bardon was persuaded by Cadol for a while, and then heard Qiao Han's words and asked, "You really just use the port and have no other requirements." ”

Of course Qiao Han didn't think so, it would be good to occupy Vietnam as a snow fox. But what Mademoiselle said has a point, France cannot be destroyed at this time. Zhang Donglin was not satisfied with this, Vietnam has always been a vassal state of China, and the annexation of Vietnam is not a big deal. If France can occupy it, why can't China occupy it?

But what Miss said does make sense, Japan can blockade Guangzhou, Shanghai, Fujian, China's coastal ports, why not blockade Vietnam's Haiphong and Ha Long ports, because that is French. If Snow Fox openly occupies northern Vietnam, the Japanese Navy will immediately be able to blockade these two places, and Snow Fox without the Navy will have no way.

Only with the name of France hanging on the north of Vietnam could the supplies enter Haiphong and thus be transported into China, so Snow Fox had to become the name of the rebels and seize northern Vietnam. Otherwise, Snow Fox can bring in a large army and occupy the whole of Vietnam in one fell swoop. In that case, Vietnam would just become another Guangzhou. That's why there is a secret entry into Hanoi to force Cadol to agree, instead of destroying them and seizing Hanoi, otherwise with the combat effectiveness of the Snow Fox Brigade, are you still afraid of the French army, a garbage army?

Regarding Zhang Donglin's question about whether Japan would enter the army to occupy Vietnam, Xue Ru said that it would not be for the time being. In fact, Xue Ru was clear that the Japanese army's full-scale attack and occupation of Vietnam was a matter of 41 years, when the Pacific War broke out, and now it is only the end of 39 years, and it can be fought for two years to ensure the smooth passage here. When the Japanese army fully enters Vietnam, the Chinese expeditionary force can also enter Burma and Vietnam, and the US navy will also appear in Southeast Asia at that time, and Japan will not be able to blockade it, and Xue Ru's purpose is to win these two years.

Qiao Han nodded and said: "China is fighting against Japan and has no intention of occupying Vietnam, so you can rest assured, as long as we do not interfere with Snow Fox's actions, we will not enter Haiphong Port, as long as Ha Long Port ensures that the Lang Son Highway is unblocked, there will be no problem." ”

Cadol and Bardon were heartbroken, and if they could really agree to this, Japan could not control France, as long as the Governor's Office did not say it, Japan could not do anything. As long as Snow Fox keeps a low profile and doesn't let the outside world know, it can also save the lives of these French people and themselves. The two of them discussed for a while, and in order to save his life, Cadol said: "We can agree to your conditions, but you cannot act openly, and you must use the name of France." ”

Qiao Han thought for a while and said: "Our young commander has an explanation, as long as the governor and the general agree, Snow Fox can keep the three counties of Ha Duong, Thanh Thanh, Zhongping and Ha Long Port in the name of the French North Vietnamese Detachment, which can be regarded as a French garrison." We govern these four places, and the army does not enter other places, but you are not allowed to interfere or send troops to these places, and we are at peace. ”

Although Qiao Han agreed, the very clever Cadol said: "How can you conclude that we will not go back, and what if you don't abide by the agreement?" ”

This was originally what Snow Fox should be worried about, but it was indeed brought up by Cadol, because he was very worried, Xue Ru, the commander of the Snow Fox Corps, was known as the fox spirit, and it was impossible not to even count this point, and they dared to agree that there must be a backhand. Don't say yes, if they release the news again, then they will be the governor of the end of themselves, which is also what Baldon is worried about.

Qiao Han admired it in her heart, Miss counted the psychology of the French at home, and thought of every step, so she slowed down and said: "Governor Cadol, there are two reasons, the first is that if we announce it, North Vietnam is the place of Snow Fox, and Japan will be able to immediately send troops to at least blockade the coast around Vietnam, and there is no blockade at this time, because this is a French colony, so we will not make it public, we can only act secretly." Second, don't look at the French army, there are 20,000 or 30,000 people, but Snow Fox is not only these thousands of people, there are still tens of thousands of troops in China, and they can cross the border at any time, do you think that the 30,000 French army can be the opponent of Snow Fox? If you don't keep your promise, I can destroy you at any time. ”

These words were so arrogant that Balden, the general, was furious, and if it weren't for this situation, he would have jumped up and stopped talking, and met on the battlefield. But at this time, his own life and the lives of thousands of French people are in the hands of others, and no matter how angry he is, he can't help it.

Cadole deeply understands that this is the truth, in order to avoid the Japanese, Snow Fox really won't make these things public, as long as he doesn't say it, Snow Fox really can't say it. It's just three counties and a port, and I'm the governor, so it's really nothing if things aren't made public, and for now, it's important to save my life. He sighed and said: "You have won, we have agreed to the conditions, please do not expand outward, otherwise France is not easy to bully, and Japan will not dare to attack us." ”

Qiao Han also breathed a sigh of relief, and finally achieved his goal, he also knew that Snow Fox could not openly occupy Vietnam, so it would become a direct confrontation with the Japanese Navy. As long as the French don't say anything, under the cover of France, Snow Fox can control the land of Ha Long Gang and the three counties, and ensure the Lang Son Highway.

Now that both sides understood, the rest of the matter was easy, Cadol and Qiao Han discussed the details, Bardon ordered the guards to stop the attack, and Snow Fox promised to release the men after the French troops retreated. The Snow Fox Corps Special Operations Brigade withdrew from Hanoi, and the matter was resolved satisfactorily.

Three days later, Xue Ru, who was in Longzhou, received a telegram that Zhang Donglin was discussing further cooperation with Kadol. Dai Zong and Qiao Han were expanding the Snow Fox Corps, and at the same time, the Langshan Highway was reopened to traffic, and they could be shipped as soon as the Nanning Battle was over.

When Xue Ru received the report, the 77th Division led by Lai Changwen and Li Wenxiu also arrived in Longzhou.
