Listening to Li Zhen's arrogant words, Aliguo's temples beat faster and faster.
In an instant, Aliguo's face darkened, he banged on the table, and said in a cold voice: "General Li, we are talking about a serious and deep topic. It is very rude for you to be so rude. Besides, what I am telling you is just a fact.
, bandits captured Shanghai and the British Empire suffered losses, shouldn’t you make compensation?”
Yang Nenge interrupted: "General Li, the two sides are negotiating, it's best to pay attention."
Lan Weiwen said: "We need help and cannot anger each other."
The two people blatantly flattered A Liguo, which made Li Zhen furious and very angry.
Shanghai was captured by the Little Sword Society, and they indeed wanted to annihilate the Little Sword Society, but they definitely did not ask foreigners to take action in a humble manner. Li Zhen would not do such a thing, and would not allow his subordinates to do so. Li Zhen understood even better the ambassador to China like Ali Guo.
He is the representative who carves up China's interests. If Ali is allowed to stand up, he will definitely be a cancer that cannot be shaken off.
"Asshole!"
Li Zhen had a stern expression and glanced at Yang Nenge and Lan Weiwen like a knife.
Yang Nengge and Lan Weiwen were startled, but glared angrily.
Li Zhen seemed not to have heard, and said calmly: "I am the supervisor of Jiang Customs, fully responsible for Shanghai customs matters. If you two don't have good opinions, don't interrupt. I have my own opinions. Remember clearly that you are officials of the Qing Dynasty.
, all your words and deeds must be for the sake of the Qing Dynasty. Don't flatter the bandits in Shanghai just because you want to pacify them, do you understand?"
The two of them dared to be angry but dared not speak, and stopped talking. The idiot in front of them dared to offend even the British, so it would not be worth the insult if they angered him.
Aitang was secretly proud when she saw Li Zhen, Lan Weiwen and Yang Nenge having a dispute.
Aliguo's eyes were cold and he continued: "General Li, if you cannot compensate the British Empire for its losses, the Empire's army will remain neutral and may even send people to contact the Xiaodao Society. You have to think clearly."
Ma Hui and Aitang immediately expressed their opinions and asked Li Zhen to compensate for the losses of their respective countries.
The ugly face is exposed.
Li Zhen leaned on the chair and said with a smile: "You want to send people to contact the Little Knife Society, okay, then please do it. I really want to see if you sent people to meet the leader of the Little Knife Society and were cut off
His ears were cut off, but his arms were cut off. I'm afraid I sent someone there, but they came back in despair. Your threats are useful to Yang Nengge and Lan Weiwen, but I won't accept this trick. It's unrealistic.
Needless to say."
A Liguo, Ma Hui and Aitang looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
At this moment, the three of them suddenly realized that they had encountered a difficult opponent.
As Li Zhen said, the Xiaodao Society does not care about foreigners and is very repulsive to foreigners.
Prior to this, Ali State had sent people to contact Liu Lichuan, the leader of the Little Sword Society, and wanted to support Liu Lichuan as its spokesperson. Although the people sent were not injured, they were kicked out of Shanghai and came back in despair.
If Liu Lichuan does not cooperate, it is impossible for the UK and Xiaodao to stand on the same line.
Li Zhen looked at the three of them jokingly, with a contemptuous smile on his lips.
This look made Aliguo even more angry.
Aliguo said angrily: "Xiao Dao will not cooperate, and the empire can remain neutral. By then, with your hundreds of soldiers and hundreds of guns, it will be impossible to capture Shanghai."
Li Zhen said nonchalantly: "Shanghai is captured, and the longer it takes, the greater the impact will be on your interests in the concession. What am I afraid of? It's just a delay in putting down the rebellion."
Li Zhen acted nonchalantly, and A Liguo, Aitang and Ma Hui felt even more aggrieved.
Li Zhen continued: "British, American and French businessmen coming to China from their respective countries may encounter tornadoes, storms, or even pirates while sailing on the sea, and they will suffer losses. Have you lost money?
, do you want to ask the pirates for compensation? Or ask God to compensate you and let it drop gold from the sky to you? It’s simply ridiculous!”
"Xiao Dao will cause trouble and your interests in the concession will be damaged. I sympathize with you."
"However, this is what Xiaodao will do, and it has nothing to do with the Qing Dynasty."
"It's impossible to blame the Qing Dynasty for something as trivial as a trivial matter. You are grabbing money in Shanghai and making a lot of money, but you haven't paid half a penny to the Qing Dynasty. You don't even dare to pay taxes.
Pay. If something goes wrong and you want the Qing Dynasty to compensate you, it is simply a bandit theory. To put it simply, if you don’t pay the protection fee, it’s none of my business if you are killed or beheaded.”
Li Zhen became angrier as he spoke, and his heart was extremely angry.
Yang Nengge and Lan Weiwen were completely numb. This guy is definitely crazy.
Aliguo retorted loudly: "This is the territory of the Qing Dynasty. Our treaty also allows us not to pay taxes. We are operating legally. Now that we have suffered losses, why shouldn't we be compensated? What you say is just bandit logic."
"I bother!"
Li Zhen raised his eyebrows and stood up suddenly.
Li Zhen pointed at the Ali Kingdom and said: "You keep mentioning the treaty, but does it say compensation? Since there is no mention of compensation, don't mention the interests of the bullshit empire. If you make money, put it in your own pocket.
If you lose money but still want to find someone to pay you, I don’t know if you’ve been kicked in the head by a donkey or caught in the door.”
"Pfft!"
Huang Shihai couldn't help but laugh out loud, feeling extremely happy in his heart.
Yang Banhou also felt refreshed. Li Zhen was bold and resolute, much better than those dignitaries in Beijing who nodded and bowed when meeting foreigners.
Seeing Li Zhen's toughness, Aliguo felt helpless. After a pause, Aliguo said in a deep voice: "If you don't compensate, we will send our own troops to attack Xiaodao Hui and get back what we lost."
At this time, the behavior of a robber was exposed.
Li Zhen's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he stared at the Alli Kingdom like a poisonous snake. His voice was low and hoarse, and he said slowly: "I repeat, this is the territory of the Qing Dynasty, and Shanghai is part of the Qing Dynasty. If your Alli Kingdom is in Shanghai
If you use force without authorization, I can think of it as Britain provoking the Qing Dynasty, and I will order an attack on you when the time comes."
"Hahaha……"
Aliguo couldn't stop laughing wildly, and said with a chuckle: "It's just your rabble!"
Li Zhen said seriously: "The soldiers in the military camp are indeed not very good, but the more than 900 soldiers I brought with me all obeyed me. Maybe you want to say that there is a fleet, cannons, and well-trained soldiers. But
I’m not afraid, so why should I be afraid of dead people? After dead people, we can still recruit soldiers to continue training and then continue fighting.”
At this point, Li Zhen paused for a moment, then said with a smile: "On the contrary, if one of your soldiers across the ocean is killed or injured, it won't be a big deal. If there are many more dead, it will be difficult to explain when you return home, even if you are stationed in Shanghai.
The Consul General is also difficult to deal with."
Aliguo felt extremely uncomfortable, as if there was a fly stuck in his throat.
Li Zhen was unable to make him surrender despite his lack of oil and salt.
"Hmph, let's go!"
Seeing that the threat was in vain, Aliguo stood up and walked out of the tent.
Ma Hui and Aitang also stood up, glanced at Li Zhen with complicated expressions, and left with Aliguo. The three foreigners left dejectedly, and the rest of the foreign soldiers also left quickly.
