Red Alert 1895

Chapter 511: The Boxers Enter Beijing (Part 1)

Near the Summer Palace in the capital, Tian Lihui was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, because he never thought that this Yuxian would bring him to the capital, and instead went to meet the Empress Dowager Lafayette. And according to Yuxian, he will perform this so-called invulnerability stunt in front of the Queen Mother, Lafayette, and then tell Cixi that he is not afraid of foreign guns and cannons. Didn't I see that someone has practiced for half a year, so is he not afraid of pistol bullets? So as long as you practice for two years, you won't be afraid of the cannons of foreigners. This must be a very powerful magic skill. As long as you can learn these magical skills, it will not be very easy to fight against foreigners. Of course, the most important thing is to fight against Taiwan. This Taiwan relies on so-called foreign guns to win, which is nothing. And my Greater China martial arts is definitely the first-class ability in the world. As long as I learn martial arts, I will not be afraid of any foreign guns and cannons.

At that time, the Qing army will not only practice martial arts, but also go to Taiwan after practicing to defeat Wang Guorui's rebellion. But now, they didn't know that the so-called invulnerability was just a rubber bullet. Tian Lihui murmured in his heart, not knowing what to do.

Although when he was performing, his own people were using pistols, so he used rubber bullets. But once you perform in front of the old Buddha Cixi, you will use real guns and live ammunition! Those Qing soldiers would not cooperate with themselves and used fake rubber bullets to fight, they all used live ammunition. He doesn't have the ability to be invulnerable, so he is naturally very scared. When the time comes, it's a trivial matter to die, but once things are delayed, it will really be a big problem.

"What should I do? In half a day, the old witch will summon me, how can I deal with it?" Tian Lihui thought.

"Colonel Tanaka, how are you?" a man who looked like a peddler asked.

"Huh? Are you? Who has never died since ancient times?" Tian Lihui asked.

"Which **** doesn't use paper!" the peddler replied.

Tian Lihui was surprised immediately. Then he went on to say: "Ten thousand zhang tall buildings rise from the ground!"

The peddler replied: "A red apricot came out of the wall!"

Tian Lihui said seriously: "It takes less time to spend banknotes!"

The peddler also answered seriously: "There are many gossips in front of the widow's door..."

Tian Lihui asked again: "If you are poor, you will be alone..."

"The rich have wives and concubines."

"The horse has thin hair, long hooves and fat!"

"A son who steals from his father is not a thief"

"Three thousand beauties in the harem?"

"Iron rods ground into embroidery needles..."

Tian Lihui immediately knew that this person was his own, because the set of code words just now was used to identify whether he was his own, especially those who did not know each other's identities. A senior agent who has no contact with him on weekdays. Only senior agents above the lieutenant colonel know this code word, and even ordinary small agents don't know this code word. This set of codewords is specially for those who do not have contact with each other on weekdays. The two sides do not have the various secret agents who come and go to use it to identify themselves. As for this set of code words, it was a classic plot that Wang Guorui saw when he was reading online novels, and then he wrote it down.

"Colonel Tanaka, I am the director of the Marketing Division of the Intelligence Department of the Beijing Office in Beijing. I am in charge of inquiring about various business intelligence, and I just saw that you were dizzy here, so I came here immediately. It looks like you Is there something very urgent?" the peddler asked.

"That's right, I have something very important, listen to me! I'm going to the Summer Palace to meet that old hag, the Queen Mother, but I want to perform the so-called invulnerability..."

After Tian Lihui finished speaking, the peddler quickly went to a private property of the Beijing Office by special means, and then met with the director of the Beijing Office, Zhou Chen, and told him about Tian Lihui's difficulties. Zhou Chen immediately decided to send a top-secret urgent telegram to Wang Guorui.

In Taiwan, Tan Ya had just translated a top-secret urgent telegram, and then immediately went to Wang Guorui to convey it to Wang Guorui.

"Commander, Zhou Chen from the Beijing Office suggested using the highest-level internal line. Because the Boxer Regiment's entry into Beijing can be said to be one of our highest plans. If the Boxer Regiment does not enter the capital, I am afraid that our subsequent plans will not be able to go smoothly. Done. So Zhou Chen asked to use the inside line. And then get help as our priority. Because if Cixi can’t be convinced that the Boxers are invulnerable, then he will never choose to support the Boxers against foreigners. As long as he can believe that the Boxers can Swords and guns are invulnerable, then the Boxers will be able to enter the capital, and then make the capital a mess!" Tan Ya said.

Wang Guorui thought for a while, and then said, "Okay, let him use that hidden line!"

After Zhou Chen received the order to agree to use the secret line, he immediately came to Prince Qing's mansion non-stop, and then handed in an urgent invitation. And this so-called insider is Prince Qing Yikuang. This Prince Qing Yikuang is a guy who can sell even his ancestors for money, so there is absolutely nothing wrong with asking him for help. Now that Taiwan is in trouble. Then you can come to him naturally, as long as you come to him, there is absolutely no problem. This kind of person is best dismissed. As long as you have money, you can sell anything.

"Prince Qing, I need your help with one thing!" Zhou Chen said.

"Oh? Is there anything you want me to help with?" Prince Qing Yikuang asked.

Zhou Chen told him about that Tian Lihui, and Yikuang immediately said: "Let me just say, how can there be invulnerability in this world? However, since that guy belongs to you, then you want what have I done?"

Zhou Chen immediately said: "As long as you use your relationship to let those soldiers replace their bullets with our special bullets, then there will be no problem.

Yikuang sat down on the sofa, and then made a look of "Brother Kong Fang" with his hands. Zhou Chen immediately understood what it meant.

"Prince Qing, how much silver do you want?" Zhou Chen asked.

Dealing with Prince Qing is impossible without money. Even now they are trading with each other, but they all need money. If you don't have money, then don't want him to work.

Yikuang immediately said: "It's actually very simple. I don't want much. I have opened up so many relationships, and you are still in such a hurry, the price is naturally higher. Now it is not long before you meet the Queen Mother. It's been less than an hour, so it's not easy to establish a relationship in such a short period of time!"

"Prince Qing, you can just say a price." Zhou Chen said.

Of course Zhou Chen knew that this old man was a money fanatic, but now he had to bargain with him. Because this old thing is greedy for money, if he doesn't satisfy his appetite, then he won't do anything for you. Therefore, his appetite must be satisfied, so that he can help you do things with peace of mind. If there is no money, then he will leave you. This kind of person who would rather want money than ancestors, this kind of person is simply a strange thing.

"Two hundred thousand taels!" Prince Qing Yikuang said.

"Two hundred thousand taels, why don't you grab it?" Zhou Chen cursed inwardly.

You must know that Taiwan's "activity funds" approved by the mainland's Beijing Office are only 600,000 taels a year, and this 600,000 taels will be spent on the mainland's huge network of relationships. There are various governors and ministers. There are also all kinds of people in the yamen who want to give money. But this Prince Qing, Yikuang, really deserved to be desperate for money, and unexpectedly he was about to leave one-third of the time as soon as he opened his mouth. If it is really given to him, I am afraid that the "public relations" of the various Beijing Offices will also fall into a dilemma.

"It seems that we have to go through special funding channels!"

Such a large amount of money, if you take it directly, you will definitely not be able to get it out. However, Zhou Chen, the director of the Beijing Office, has a place where he has more power than people in other places, that is, if someone or something has a particularly important value, he can go to HSBC to withdraw a sum of money. . This money is money that can only be used when it is very important, and it does not belong to the allocation of formal channels. Only he himself knew about this situation, and none of his subordinates knew about it. And this HSBC bank account has a deposit of 100,000 pounds, which is an absolute reserve fund, and even Zhou Chen cannot use it casually.

"150,000, at most it can only be 150,000!" Zhou Chen said.

But that Yikuang said: "If there is only 150,000~lightnovelpub.net~, then it is a hammer sale, and I can only help you to carry out activities. However, I also know about your support for the Boxer Regiment. If If I go to stop it now, your plan will be in vain. At that time, I am afraid that your plan will also fail? The last 50,000 yuan is actually just money used to keep me from interfering."

"Bastard, this **** bastard, is he really asking for money in the coffin?" Zhou Chen cursed in his heart.

And soon, Zhou Chen also said: "I will give you 50,000 as a deposit first. After the matter is completed, I will give you the remaining 150,000. I won't hide it from you, I can't take it out immediately. With so much money, I have to go to raise funds. So I can only give you 50,000 first, and then I will give you the rest of the money after it is done, how about it?"

"Okay, deal! Although I am greedy for money, my reputation is still guaranteed. As long as the deal is completed, I will not go back on my promise." Yikuang said.

Zhou Chen cursed in his heart: "Hmph, one day sooner or later, after our Lord Wang of Taiwan takes over the world, I will definitely ask you to spit out the money with interest, and then you will be in trouble!"

After Zhou Chen finished speaking, he left immediately, and Yi Kuang also immediately started to initiate relationships, helping Zhou Chen replace the bullets of those soldiers with rubber bullets. (to be continued)
