Chapter 237: Dilemma

Chapter 237: Dilemma

The original cottage in northern Vietnam has disappeared, the cottage at this time is famous, it has a big flag flying in the wind, the typical shape of the ancient Chinese battle flag, the wolf's tooth side is black, the middle is yellow, in the middle of the flag a big red wolf head, this is the snow wolf cottage that everyone knows around Ha Long and Haiphong at this time.

Even the French Governor's Office in Hanoi knew very well that the French army in Hanoi remained silent about this snow wolf cottage established under the control of the Chinese, and the surrounding mountains were no longer independent, and if they did not submit, they would be wiped out. Don't say they can't sue, even if they can, it's useless, Snow Wolf has a deep background. In fact, there are many French troops around the Snow Wolf Cottage, and they turn a blind eye, so others can only surrender.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and news can always get out, and it is said that this cottage was secretly supported by the Governor, and the owner of the village is the son-in-law of the Governor. Of course, some people believe that Alisa married a Chinese, which is known to all Vietnamese.

For the people around the Snow Wolf Cottage, they will not object, because the Snow Wolf Cottage issued an order that as long as they obey the management of the Snow Wolf and pay taxes normally, they will be protected by the Snow Wolf, and even those county governments and townships dare not care about them. Snow Wolf's taxes are lower than those of the government, and as long as they work, they still have a lot of wages to get.

In this short period of time, the area around this area, which has been renamed Snow Wolf Mountain, has formed a town centered on Snow Wolf Village, and the surrounding people have begun to move here. There are also more commercial shops, especially through the construction of two kilometers of roads here, one through the Snow Wolf Cottage to Ha Long Port, and the other from the Snow Wolf Cottage to Lang Son to China. There are also roads under construction in the direction of Nanning, and it is said that the Nanning camp issued an order to recruit migrant workers to build roads.

Every day, people come and go on both sides of the Sino-Vietnamese border, and the construction of this road is much faster than the Yunnan-Burma Highway, and the quality is also good. The reason is very simple, that is, the workers are treated much better, but there is no machinery and equipment, and it is completely manual, so the progress of the project is not fast.

At this time, in the Governor's Mansion of Hanoi, Kadowl's face was a little bad, and Xiao Yong's face was not very good, because the two of them had been arguing for a long time. There were tears in the corners of Alyssa's eyes, she was very embarrassed, this was her chosen husband, and he was really good to herself, although a woman could intuitively feel that Xiao Yong still had that Xue Ru in her heart, but she didn't treat herself badly. Alyssa was uncomfortable with this, but she loved Xiao Yong too much and didn't want to give up, so she could only pretend not to know. Besides, Xiao Yong never said that he would go back. Snow Fox Xue Ru has never been here, and the two of them are fine.

Regarding the matter of the Snow Wolf Cottage, Kadoll also knew that the batch of weapons and ammunition unloaded from Halong Port almost did not stop, and was directly transported to China, and in whose hands did it end up, how could Cadol not know, otherwise he, the governor, was not too incompetent?

Thinking about these things for a while, a cunning person like Cadol understands why, Xiao Yong and they are obviously sent by Snow Fox, but in order to hide people's eyes and ears, they do not admit that they are official Chinese people, but exist in the form of copycat bandits, so that the French government has no choice.

Cadol was very angry about this, and his feeling and judgment was that Xiao Yong did not really like his daughter, but used and used his daughter to achieve their goals. The angry Cadol wanted to send troops to encircle and suppress the Snow Wolf Cottage several times, but Xiao Yong stepped in to stop it. His own daughter also made Cadol angry, and he only had a husband in his heart and no father at all.

Although he benefited a lot from it, how could he hide these things from General Balden, the commander of the French army in Vietnam. Cadol knew that these situations had already been reported back to his country, and the reason why he did not deal with himself was because France was facing great pressure from Germany, and had no time to take care of the overseas colonies, otherwise he was afraid that he would be the governor of the state.

According to Barden, the Snow Wolves began to meddle in local affairs instead of simply developing cottage roads to transport things from the port. Snow Wolf Commander Qiao Han appointed officials in the villages and towns around Snow Wolf Cottage, and already actually controlled two or three counties.

The officials sent by the French Governor's Office could not even collect taxes, and those Vietnamese and Chinese accepted the protection of the snow wolf, and the taxes were handed over to the snow wolf cottage, no longer listening to the local government.

How could Governor Cadol not hear Barden's threatening tone today? So he called Xiao Yong and asked him and Alyssa to return to France and settle down, not in Vietnam. If Cadoll wants Xiao Yong to leave, he will listen to Barden's advice to exterminate the Snow Wolf Cottage, as long as Xiao Yong is not there. Of course, the Chinese government did not dare to go to war with France, and there was nothing that the snow fox could do, and they did not dare to admit that the snow wolf was their man.

But Xiao Yong refused, and didn't even ask his daughter, it was too much, how could it go on like this: "Xiao Yong, I'm not discussing with you, but telling you that you are now Alyssa's husband, and you must obey my arrangement, otherwise I will also exterminate the Snow Wolf Cottage, don't think that Qiao Han has thousands of troops now, and he is not an opponent in front of the army." ”

Xiao Yong was not comfortable in his heart, his original intention was not like this, thinking that he could catch the line of Cadol through Alisa, and with the relationship of the Governor's Palace, he could open up the situation in northern Vietnam as soon as possible and complete the task. Everything did go according to plan, but he was caught up in Elisa's feelings. The way Qiao Han looked at him made Xiao Yong want to try his best to help Qiao Han, which could reduce the guilt in his heart, and it could be regarded as compensating for his feelings of being sorry for Xue Ru. However, Bardon and Cadol did not agree, and one of the two held local power and the other held military power, which was obviously a check and balance on the French side.

What made Xiao Yong angry the most was Qiao Han, who moved more and more, not only began to form an army, but also began to meddle in local affairs, making it impossible for him to explain to Kadol. I talked to Qiao Han twice, hoping that he could ensure that the passage could be passed, and that he wouldn't move too much. But when they got the reply, the two of them almost turned their faces, because Qiao Han's words made Xiao Yong unbearable.

Qiao Han thinks that Xiao Yong should make sacrifices for Miss, and don't just think about his foreign wife. Let Xiao Yong advise Cadol to be wise and not to use force to solve the problem, otherwise the army composed of the French and Vietnamese will not be in Qiao Han's eyes at all.

In fact, Qiao Han knew very well that Xiao Yong no longer planned to return to China, he had completely turned to France and began to encircle the interests of Cadol's family, so that the contradiction between the two began to deepen. The more this happened, the more Qiao Han moved, and when he knew that Zhang Donglin was coming, Xiao Yong understood that Xue Ru was probably not simply a matter of establishing a passage, but to actually control northern Vietnam. This is a French colony, of course, it can also become a Chinese colony, and Xue Ru has the intention of occupying Vietnam. This made Xiao Yong full of worries, with Xue Ru's mind and ability, it was completely possible.

Sure enough, Zhang Donglin came, and within a few days, the three counties of Qingzheng, Heyang, and Zhongping were replaced, and the county magistrates of the three counties were originally appointed by the French Governor's Office, but they were expelled by the locals overnight, and one of them was killed and replaced by three new county magistrates. This is equivalent to the actual control of the three counties of the Snow Wolf Cottage, and the Snow Wolf Army has also grown to more than 2,000 people.

Regarding the training level of the snow fox, with the combat concept of the snow fox, don't look at the fact that France has more than 30,000 troops in Vietnam, including a division in the north, with more than 10,000 people, it is really not in Qiao Han's eyes, so Qiao Han, who has gained a firm foothold, is moving more and more, and he doesn't care about the French Governor's Mansion at all. Pushing Xiao Yong to this embarrassing point, he is angry with Cadol and Qiao Han, why can't he keep a low profile if he doesn't think about himself?

Zhang Donglin is even more angry, this guy who grew up in the United States really has the opportunity to display his talents and regard himself as the governor of Vietnam. What kind of joke is it that he proposed to let the French troops withdraw from the border, hand over the local rights of the northern Minh Hu province to Snow Wolf, and recognize the independent autonomy of northern Vietnam?

Can France admit it? It was said that it was the meaning of the young lady, which made Xiao Yong hard to believe, he wanted to ask Xue Ru, but he didn't know how to face Xue Ru, so he could only hold his breath.

Today Cadole came to him because of this incident and how to give him a reply. With a gloomy face, he said: "Father, I think it's better not to solve it by force, the French army is not the opponent of the snow wolf, they inherit the tactics of the snow fox, even the Japanese army is not an opponent, let alone the French army, once it fails, it may be difficult to clean up." ”

Seeing that Xiao Yong did not say that he would not let the troops be dispatched, but said that the French army was not an opponent, Cadol's face softened: "Whether it is an opponent or not, you will only know until you fight." I'll give you two ways, the first is to take Elisa back to France, I don't want to embarrass you, and I don't want my daughter to be difficult. Second, since you married Elisa, that is, a member of the Aderen family, and you joined the army, you commanded the army to destroy the Snow Wolf Cottage, didn't you say that there was no one in your family? It doesn't matter if you go back or not. ”

Xiao Yong was a little dazed, it seemed that Cadole wanted to completely destroy the Snow Wolf Cottage, which made Xiao Yong embarrassed for a while. For the second point that Cadol said, Xiao Yong could not carry it out, although he knew that if he commanded the army, Qiao Han would not necessarily be an opponent, but could he really be an enemy of Xue Ru?

If she divorces Alyssa, can Xue Ru forgive him? At that time, I didn't have anything to do. Although he still thought about Xue Ru in his heart, with his understanding of Xue Ru, when he and Alyssa got married, he completely lost Xue Ru.

After a few months of life, Xiao Yong himself didn't know that his heart had changed, especially in terms of enjoyment, the days when he came to stretch out his hands and eat to open his mouth, the days when he pampered and treated the aristocratic life, and the days when there were groups of slaves, let him give up all this and go back to the past, and he would not accept it in his heart.

From thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, a soldier, born in an ordinary person, suddenly entered the upper class society and lived a luxurious life, so that Xiao Yong lost all this, he was already unwilling. That's why he went to Qiao Han, wanting to persuade Qiao Han to just guarantee the passage, not to control northern Vietnam, so that he could reconcile the relationship between them, and he would do his best to help Xue Ru protect this passage.

It was Qiao Han who discovered Xiao Yong's change, and the two fell out, when Xiao Yong said that he would use such a method, Qiao Han disagreed, and sure enough, Xiao Yong changed. Not only was he disappointed and sad, but at the same time he was even more angry, and the young lady still believed in him so much.

Zhang Donglin was worried about Xiao Yong's betrayal, and Miss also said that he believed him, Xiao Yong had really changed, so Qiao Han also issued a warning, if Xiao Yongyong betrayed Miss completely, Qiao Han would never let him go. Xiao Yong returned to Hanoi as soon as he was angry, that is, at the same time, the snow wolf was dispatched to take down the three counties around the cottage.

"I don't want to embarrass my daughter, you're her husband after all, so I think you'd better go back to Paris, and you'll have a harder time here," said Cadol. That's the only thing I can do, I'm the governor after all, and I have to think about the French nation. Japan has lodged a protest with France, and the government has agreed to close the Sino-Vietnamese border, and if this leads to a war between Japan and France, I am afraid that I will not be able to keep this position as governor-general. ”

Japanese? Xiao Yong can help France, can betray Xue Ru because of his wife, after all, it is an emotional problem, but it is not good for Japan, which has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of Chinese. His face suddenly became very excited: "Father, I can not interfere in these things for the sake of Alyssa, but if the Japanese are involved, I can't do anything, so I can't go back to France, please forgive me." ”

Cadol stood up suddenly: "Xiao Yong, don't give you a face, Alisa married you because she likes it, and I also look at my daughter's face, otherwise you Chinese will not be able to enter the Aderen family." In a word, you return to France immediately, and tomorrow the day after tomorrow, the Japanese Supervision Corps will arrive in Hanoi to inspect the Sino-Vietnamese border, and I will also send General Barden to use troops against the Snow Wolves. ”

Xiao Yong's face turned purple all of a sudden, and he saw a trace of contempt and contempt in Cadol's eyes, which he could not tolerate. It turned out that Cador actually looked at himself like this, and he was also furious: "General Cadol, I also look at Alyssa's face, he is my wife, otherwise the French army is really not in my eyes." I'm in charge of this matter, Alyssa, you can do it, I don't blame you for the choice between me and your father. ”

Alyssa was stupid, she really liked Xiao Yong, and she didn't hesitate to marry him, but she didn't expect her father to be like this, it turned out to be using Xiao Yong to make money, now the snow wolf is out of control, her father actually ignored himself, stimulated Xiao Yong with words, she cried: "Father, Xiao Yong is Chinese after all, for the sake of his daughter's face, don't care, and I can't do without him." ”

"Bastard" Cadol is indeed thinking about this, Xiao Yong did not give him less money they get, he is the governor, and the Chinese want to gain a foothold in Vietnam, they cannot do without themselves. Although he loves his daughter very much and wants her to be happy, there is nothing for a man, what is great about a Chinese, and it is not possible to marry someone without him. But I didn't expect my daughter to be so unproductive, and she was also angry: "Come on, send Miss and Mr. to the back house, and don't go out." ”

Immediately, a few people came in from outside and surrounded Xiao Yong and Alisa, Xiao Yong stood up and looked at these people with anger on his face. Alyssa didn't want to completely fall out with her father, it was her father after all, so she hurriedly grabbed Xiao Yong: "Yong, don't be like this, I'm your wife, even if you don't look at my face, it's also for the sake of the child in my belly, don't be an enemy of my father." ”

Xiao Yong's heart was shocked, he really planned to leave here, Alyssa could go with him, if he didn't leave, he couldn't be looked down upon. But...... Surprised, he asked, "Are you pregnant?" ”
