Time: October 6th, at half past six in the afternoon, when the sunset on the horizon was about to completely go down.

Location: The main entrance of the Old Summer Palace.

Looking at the empty road ahead, and the sky that was about to completely darken, Hu Biao breathed a sigh of relief.

With a 'click~', the bullet in the chamber of the gun was withdrawn.

In the position beside him, the team members also felt a little relieved; They all put away their weapons and walked out of the hidden firepower points where they were.

The reason for this is that today's time is more sensitive.

In the original history, this afternoon the French army finally reached the Old Summer Palace; Ren Liang and a group of more than 20 fathers-in-law all died in this process, and then Wen Feng, the minister of the garden, died in Fuhai.

The next day, when the leader of the Yin-French coalition arrived.

Immediately sent three British and French commissioners to jointly distribute the treasures in the park, which was regarded as the official start of the frenzied looting here.

And in this mission world, although the Yin-Law Alliance suffered a big loss at Bali Bridge, the number of people killed in the battle was a hundred times more than the original.

It can be regarded as being severely frustrated by them.

But the inertia of history is too great, or the Daqing court is really too wasteful.

Emperor Xianfeng still ran away with his wife. Daqing's army was still the same bird, and its morale was not improved at all, and it also ran away.

Therefore, as for the Yin Law Alliance, will it be killed this afternoon as in history, Hu Biao has no confidence in their hearts at all.

It can only be that except for Ah Li and the two, who continue to command Hai Dongqing to transfer treasures, everyone else in the team is here at the door to guard against the appearance of the Yin Law Alliance.

It was only after waiting until now, when there was no shadow of the Yin Law Alliance, that he was greatly relieved.

No way! There are too many treasures here in the Old Summer Palace, even if they have already used Hai Dongqing to airlift space equipment, such a bug-like airlift method.

So far, they've shipped a third of it away.

On the surface, this one seems to be a lot.

The crux of the matter is that the treasures that have been transferred are relatively small and do not occupy much space; Those ritual vessels handed down from the pre-Qin period, and even the skulls of the zodiac signs and other large pieces, have not moved at all until now.

Once it is time to start transporting these large items, the efficiency will be greatly reduced, and it will take how long it will take for Tiandao to completely transport them.

Fortunately, their appearance still made some changes in the rhythm of this war.

The Yin and French coalition did not appear outside the Old Summer Palace as scheduled; finally let them not pay in vain in the battle of Bali Bridge.

After putting the Hanyang-made rifle on his shoulder, Hu Biao shouted:

"The warehouse manager and Lao Hei will arrange the shift by yourself, and from now on, the two of you will take some people and stay at the front and rear doors to continue to keep guard; Three meals a day, I will naturally ask the God of Wealth to send them to you.

The others go back to eat first, and after eating, they have to work hard to get off work.

Fight for it, and dig out another section of the tunnel tonight; The more tunnels there are, the longer the mileage, and the more likely you will be able to save your life when you fight.

In addition, discuss with Ah Li to see if Hai Dongqing can fly one or half more times a day, otherwise I am afraid that there will be many things that cannot be transferred. ”

In the face of Hu Biao's decision, everyone naturally has no objections.

But what they don't know is that they are a little too happy to be happy; Under the great inertia of history, what should come will always come......

******

At the same time, Montauban, the commander-in-chief of the Yin-Law Alliance, and Grant, the commander of the Yin Army, were also greatly relieved.

Because under the last rays of the sunset, a large number of reinforcements from their side also arrived at Bali Bridge.

After counting this batch of reinforcements, the French army here in the Baliqiao camp has reached more than 4,500 people, and the Yin army has reached more than 6,500 people, and the total strength has exceeded 11,000 people.

In addition, there are 61 field guns of various calibers with a maximum of 18 pounds and a minimum of 4 pounds.

In terms of artillery shells, there is also a considerable abundance, enough to fight several large wars.

Looking at this huge army, as well as the firepower of both the Qing Army and the Xuange Battalion, which was able to crush the entire battlefield, they finally regained their courage.

The rest of the matter depends on how to completely explode the depression that has been holding back in my heart these days.

Therefore, before they even had time to eat dinner, all the high-ranking generals in the Yin-Law Alliance gathered together at the request of Montauban and Grant.

Be prepared to discuss what to do next in order to get revenge.

For a while, a group of senior generals of the coalition forces who had been suffocated over the years spoke one after another and put forward different opinions and suggestions.

Someone shouted, surrounded the Qingren's Jingshi, and launched an artillery bombardment in retaliation.

Some people have proposed that shelling alone is not enough; It should be an immediate action early tomorrow morning, launch an attack on Jingshi, and rescue the negotiators such as Pa Xiali, who was detained by the Qingren.

Others have suggested setting fires......

In the midst of such a gossipy voice, an Oriental man with a long braid dragged behind him, but he was wearing a Western dress and was not at all in harmony with the style of the scene.

After opening a sentence in fluent English, the senior generals of the Yin Law Alliance on the scene were full of greed in their eyes.

Saying! Every time the flower grower Shenzhou Lu Shen, who is more hated than those foreign robbers? Of course, it's this kind of traitor who leads the way.

The one that just came out is called Gong Xiaogong, or Gong Banlun.

There may not be many people who know the origin of this product, but his father is a big celebrity, and a big celebrity with a good reputation.

It is written that "I advise the heavenly prince to be vigorous and reduce talents without sticking to one pattern", as well as famous sentences such as "falling red is not a ruthless thing, turning into spring mud is more protective of flowers".

In his late youth, Gong Zizhen, a famous pioneer of the reformist movement.

As a result, such a character gave birth to the son of a traitor.

Gong Xiaogong entered Beijing with his father since he was a child, traveled with the children of the Manchurians, rode horses and studied, and had attainments in scripture and history; He also assisted Wei Yuan in writing the "Atlas of the Sea Kingdom" back then, and his ability is naturally there.

In 56 years, he went to the South Cang camp where he had shaved his head, and offered advice to Zeng, but he did not see it.

In 58 years, he got to know Wei Tuma, the Han counselor of the Yin State in China, and was Wei Zoli Wenmo; Since then, he has started to act as a traitor, and this year he has entered Beijing with Wei and has become a staff member.

After coughing a few times, it attracted everyone's attention.

He said lightly: "If you want to take revenge and vent, then respected gentlemen, why don't you go to the Old Summer Palace?"

It is not only the summer palace of Emperor Daqing, but also the existence of the treasure trove of the Aixin Jueluo family.

Most of the treasures of this ancient land of the Orient for thousands of years were collected by them from the people by various means, and most of them were put there.

Each piece is of astonishing value, with more than a million pieces in number. ”

After hearing the words 'treasures of thousands of years' and 'more than a million pieces' fall on the ears of these robbers, they even became short of breath for a while, and greed rose in their hearts.

Stimulated by great greed, they unleashed a frenzied passion.

I couldn't even wait for the dawn of the next day, 500 thousand French troops, 600 Yin troops, a total of 1,100 people, under the leadership of Gong Xiaogong, set off overnight.

After rushing all the way to the north of the city, he first encountered thousands of remnants of the monk Lingqin stationed here.

After a little resistance, the men fled on their horses.

Finally, at about 1 o'clock in the morning, I saw a dense black shadow under the moonlight, after trotting over from the main road.

The warehouse manager, who was keeping vigil at the time, burst out of his mouth after a foul word.

With a single shot, he put down the person at the top and broke the last trace of peace in the Old Summer Palace......
