Fox of France

v1 Chapter 403: ,swag

Bartz and Francis covered each other and went down to the bottom. Bartz picked up the torch that had fallen on the ground and stretched it out to illuminate it.

"Did you see anything, Bartz?" the man above shouted.

"No..." Butz said as he walked in with a torch. At this time his foot seemed to trip over something.

Butts staggered and almost fell to the ground, the torch in his hand sank, and a child's wide-open eyes appeared in front of him, but those eyes were all white...

"Ah!" Bartz screamed, jumped up and almost ran into Francis.

"What's the matter?" Francis said.

"Nothing." Butts recovered at this time and replied, "I fell and almost fell on the dead."

Then he stretched the torch toward that side. Under the firelight, he could see a bleeding child lying there, holding a doll in his hand. Not far away from the child, lies her mother, holding an empty bottle in her hand.

A little further ahead, there are two boxes, I don't know what's in them.

Butz turned his head and shouted at the person above: "There is no living inside! I saw two boxes!"

The soldiers came down one after another, dragging the box up first, and then someone carried up the two dead mother and son. It was a very young woman, her child was probably only two years old, and he might have just been able to walk.

But now everyone's attention is not on them-only two dead people, everyone has seen a lot. Everyone's eyes focused on these two boxes.

The box was locked, but the locks, no matter how strong they were, could only defend against thieves. When they met the French, these things were useless. A soldier picked up the **** of the rifle and broke the lock hung on it several times. Then Philips walked over and opened the lid of the box.

As the lid of the box was lifted, a burst of golden light almost pierced people's eyes. In that box, the floor was full of golden coins.

"What is this? Ah, it's gold! It's real gold! Thank God Almighty! It's all gold!" Philip grabbed a gold coin and bit it gently in his mouth.

"Company commander..."

Many soldiers looked at him. Their eyes are all shining with a different kind of light.

Philip immediately closed the box and covered it: "These are French property. Let the priest come to count and register it. Most of the box of gold coins should be worth a lot of money."

After saying this, he looked at everyone meaningfully. Everyone immediately understood what the company commander meant, and they all laughed.

Although it took a short time to open the box just now, everyone has seen that it is not a box of gold coins, but a box full of coins. This means that the company commander is willing to take the lead with everyone...

And this box, what's in it? Everyone quickly focused on this issue. Then a gun **** broke the lock, and then Philip opened the lid, and everyone stretched their heads over. However, there was no gold or silver box in this box, but some were packed neatly. paper. However, everyone is not particularly disappointed. Although this box looks bigger than that box, it doesn’t weigh much when it is brought up. So before opening the box, everyone is already guessing that there will probably not be any in this box. what.

Philip picked up the top piece of paper and looked at it. This was a certificate of deposit from the Bouwan Bank, which was worth one hundred thousand francs. It is a pity that this is a certificate of deposit that can only be withdrawn after the agreed secret language. I don’t know the corresponding secret, and I can’t withdraw money just by holding the deposit receipt. Of course, the money that cannot be withdrawn, although nominally still belongs to the person named Abdullah bin Hag on the deposit slip. But the deposit certificate as a trophy must be handed over to the country, even if that Abdullah bin Hag did not die in this war, without the deposit certificate, he would not be able to withdraw money. So this money is destined to lie motionless in the bank account of Bouwan, and even it is already Mr. Bouwan's money.

Others have some title deeds, and some bills. But Philip felt that most of these bills could not find the creditor. At this time, he noticed that smoke had also risen in several other directions, which showed that the siege of the other manors was also in full swing.

The attack by the Turks and French on the manor outside the city was quickly discovered by the defenders inside the city-after all, the high observation deck on the city wall was not a useless display. Ahdi Pasha immediately blocked the news, because many people in the city had their family properties outside. If they knew what was happening outside the city, they might not be able to defend the city with peace of mind.

But where can this kind of news be blocked? The soldiers are going to go up the city wall for defense, and when they go up the city wall, they can naturally see what the Turks are doing outside. So the military's mind was shaken, and some officers immediately ran to ask Pasha to send an army to destroy the invaders. But Ahdi Pasha was worried that sending troops to ~lightnovelpub.net~ would weaken the defense on the port side. Being embarrassed, I heard someone report that it was Yusuf Pasha, with his cavalry, willing to go out of the city to wipe out the enemy troops.

Hearing this news, Ahdi Pasha was overjoyed and hurried to see Yusuf Pasha in person. Yusuf took his two hundred cavalry out of the city.

The Turkish cavalry that had been guarding at the gate of the city reacted immediately. They first launched a firework into the sky to remind the friendly troops who were happily robbing that the enemy had come out. Then he approached.

Nowadays, the cavalry operations in North Africa are gradually getting on the track of Europe. They also became popular with revolver cavalry. On the contrary, the Turkish cavalry is relatively more conservative, and until now, they are still equipped with cavalry spears. Of course, if there is a real chance of confrontation or something, the long cavalry spear is not necessarily worse than the pistol. But they have a pistol, so they can fight you close when they are stupid. So with a crackling sound, the Turks' cavalry gave up the task of dragging the enemy and fled in all directions. According to post-war statistics, the Turkish cavalry was reduced by one-tenth at the instant of sex. What can you do with this? Of course it was only running.

After getting rid of the entanglement of the Turkish cavalry, Yusuf Pasha took more than two hundred cavalry and quickly approached the manor closest to the city.
