Sun Desheng also followed up and said: "That's right, that's right, our soldiers have enough ammunition, and their equipment and training are much better than theirs. We can defeat one against ten."
Chen Wennian couldn't help but ask: "Sir, what about me?"
Yuan Su turned to Chen Wenian, his face became more serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Gongtai, your mission is the most important, and the success or failure of this time depends on you. After leaving the camp later, you go directly to Beidaihe to find the British Chamber of Commerce
Chairman Robertson, there are two things we need him to come forward to help with. The first is Zhao Fangyu’s matter. We need Robertson to collude with us to hide it for the time being. We must not allow Wu Chenglu to rescue this person."
Chen Wenian understands the stakes involved. Although Zhao Fangyu must have embezzled and withheld relief supplies, such immoral deeds have been commonplace in China's official circles for thousands of years. He can even recommend that in the future,
It will be the same this year. To put it simply, it is impossible to put Zhao Fangyu to death on these charges, and Yuan Su has already planned to deal with Zhao Fangyu harshly, but because the time has not come yet, he spares his life.
If Wu Chenglu rescues Zhao Fangyu, Zhao Fangyu's hatred for Yuan Su is self-evident. The other party will never give Yuan Su any chance again, and will definitely join forces with Wu Chenglu to retaliate against Yuan Su. Even if there is no evidence to prove that Yuan Su
Collusion with foreigners, these people will also try every possible means to frame them.
He promised in a meticulous tone: "Don't worry, sir, I know what to do. The worst result is that you won't see anyone alive or dead without seeing your body. So, what about the second thing?"
Yuan Su continued: "In addition to controlling Zhao Fangyu, the second thing is to ask Mr. Robertson to help me. This sounds embarrassing, but at this juncture, the issue of face is no longer a big issue."
Chen Wenian, Zhao Shanhe, and Sun Desheng looked at each other in confusion. They could only understand part of Yuan Su's intentions, but they always felt that it was too unreliable to place their hopes on foreigners.
"Sir, is this okay?"
"Yes, yes, even if the foreigners are willing to come forward, Wu Chenglu may not buy it."
"I have a cooperation agreement with Mr. Robertson, and he also knows my relationship with the British official. Although this matter may not be a sure thing, there is more hope if more forces intervene. I believe that Mr. Robertson will not fail to help with this.
For them, this is not a big deal, no matter what method they use, as long as it can put pressure on Wu Chenglu," Yuan Su said.
"Well, now that things have happened, I have no choice but to try everything. Judging from Wu Chenglu's character of not daring to intervene in Beidaihe for so many years, his fear of foreigners is not even a little bit. As long as this Robertson can stand up and speak, it will still be more or less
Those who can restrain Wu Chenglu." Chen Wennian sighed and said in a solemn tone.
"Don't worry, I am the nephew of the president after all. Coupled with the pressure from foreigners, Wu Chenglu will definitely not dare to act recklessly. Okay, everything that needs to be explained has been explained. You should act now without any delay." Yuan
Su said in a commanding tone.
"Sir, then...that's it?" Zhao Shanhe asked, still a little worried.
"As long as you take care of everything, Wu Chenglu will naturally not dare to touch me at all. You don't have to worry about it anymore. You don't know when the troops from the patrol camp will arrive. Hurry up and get ready." Yuan Su said emphatically.
The three of them had no choice but to say nothing more and decisively stood up and left. Chen Wennian took a few guards to the small dark room in the backyard, picked up Zhao Fangyu, who had been beaten until he was unconscious, and took him out together.
The camp compound. The three people left the camp. Zhao Shanhe and Sun Desheng quickly returned to the No. 1 regiment station to take charge of the overall situation. At the same time, they also sent people to notify the No. 1 battalion stationed outside the city to prepare. Chen Wennian prepared a carriage and drove seven or eight soldiers
Under the guard of soldiers, Zhao Fangyu was escorted out of the city quickly around the trail to Beidaihe.
After the group left, Yuan Su told Du Yu to tell everyone in the camp compound to behave as usual, saying that they had just called Chen Wenian, Zhao Shanhe, and Sun Desheng to make arrangements for the second batch of refugee evacuation tomorrow.
He had to pretend to be normal and create an illusion for Wu Chenglu. Only in this way could the next plan be more effective.
After everything was explained, Yuan Su asked Du Yu to go back to rest, and he also returned to the side room to lie down. Although he had acted calmly just now, when he lay down again, all kinds of thoughts came to his mind.
That he is not nervous at all is a lie. Who can guarantee that Wu Chenglu will not make impulsive decisions?
It was dawn, and Yuan Su felt sleepy. But not long after, he could vaguely hear the sound of horse hooves outside the camp, and the sound of people was like a roar. He suddenly opened his eyes, and this moment had really arrived.
But there is really no rush at all, the waiting is long, and when things arrive, everything will naturally take its time.
At this moment, all the troops from the two battalions of the patrol battalion arrived outside the camp of the Commander-in-Chief of Disaster Relief. Not only did they surround the entire camp compound, they even set up checkpoints and patrols on several streets outside the compound. Torches dispersed the dawn.
In the darkness, soldiers came and went, and the figures were reflected on the wall in the firelight.
Wu Chenglu was riding on a tall horse. At this time, he was very nervous. He was worried that Yuan Su would resist arrest, and he was also worried that the guards in the camp would make a cold shot. He was even worried about how he would treat Yuan Su after he caught him. Is this hypocritical politeness?
Or give him a cold face, or just ignore him?
Under the protection of thirty cavalry, he was still a hundred meters away from the gate of the camp, with a worried look on his face. When an officer came back from the front to report that everyone had completed the siege, everything
Ready. At this time, he cleared his throat and ordered without confidence: "Rush... No, knock on the door."
There were only about fifty guards at the camp. Except for a few of Yuan Su's personal guards who knew about the incident in advance, most people didn't know what was going on. People were panicked for a while, and the whole compound was in chaos.
After a while, Du Yu stepped forward to stabilize the situation, asked all the guards to gather in the front hall, and then stepped forward to open the door himself.
As soon as the door opened, the patrol battalion soldiers who had been waiting outside rushed into the courtyard without any explanation. Du Yu stood inside the door and yelled loudly for a few times, and was immediately held back by several soldiers with rifles.
After some drastic twists and turns, Yuan Su came from the backyard to the front hall. At first, Wu Chenglu still stayed outside the camp compound, but a sentry came to detain Yuan Su. Yuan Su immediately scolded the sentry when he saw him.
, and also brought out a series of his titles as a threat. The sentry officer felt guilty for a moment and did not dare to do anything to Yuan Su, so he had to rush out to invite Wu Chenglu again.
Wu Chenglu hesitated nervously for a while, and finally his heart changed, and he walked into the camp compound with his guards.
In the front hall, Yuan Suduan sat at the front seat and met Wu Chenglu who walked in with a gloomy face.
"Mr. Wu, what do you mean? Before dawn, you led a large group of people to surround the camp of the disaster relief commander-in-chief. If you don't give an explanation, I think this fight will be a big deal." No wait.
When Wu Chenglu opened his mouth, Yuan Su was the first to scold him coldly, as if he was showing off his superior's attitude.
"Master Yuan, I am just following orders. You don't have to worry too much. As long as the investigation is clear, I will be able to clear your name, Master Yuan." Wu Chenglu said angrily, although he wanted to break up with Yuan Su, but he also wanted to return the favor.
I can curse a few words to express my gratitude for my hatred, but after all, I haven't found Zhao Fangyu yet, and I don't have the presidential order in hand, so I naturally lose some confidence.
"What a person who has been ordered to do something! Let me ask you, whose order are you following and what are you doing!" Yuan Su said angrily.
"Beijing received news that Mr. Yuan had colluded with foreigners in Beidaihe and intended to betray national interests, and sent a special order to investigate the matter. Mr. Yuan, you are a sensible person. Even though you are the nephew of the president, you should know better.
The president is most taboo about dealing with foreigners in private, so he should not break the law knowingly. Now that I have some clues, I came here today to ask Mr. Yuan to investigate."
"That's really what you said. You actually brought out the special order from Beijing, and you claimed to have some clues! I, Yuan Su, have done my job rightly with the conscience of heaven and earth. How could I be afraid that I won't be able to withstand the investigation!"
Yuan Su shot the case and stood up. This sudden outburst shocked everyone in the audience. Even Wu Chenglu couldn't help but take half a step back.
Wu Chenglu couldn't produce any special order or evidence at all. His plan was to capture the person first and then frame him bit by bit. Now that he was being shouted at by Yuan Su, it was of course untenable.
"Master Wu, since I came to Linyu County, Yuan Su has been busy day and night with nothing but disaster relief. Now the disaster situation has just stabilized, but the refugees are still gathering and not dispersing. As the highest officer of Shanhaiguan, you don't care about this.
Things are peaceful with singing and dancing day and night, but instead you come and cause trouble with me everywhere, what are your intentions!"
"Master Yuan, you don't need to bluff here anymore. If you don't want to leave today, you have to make this trip." Wu Chenglu simply stopped talking nonsense with Yuan Su. Since everyone else has already arrived, there is no reason to back down.
"I'll leave when you say you want me to leave. You really think of yourself as a king. I am the envoy of the East Zhili Military Guard and the commander-in-chief of the central government's special disaster relief mission. You have to call yourself a subordinate in front of me. How dare you arrest me!"
"Yuan Su said deliberately uncooperatively. He just wanted to create a scene in which Wu Chenglu was forcibly detained. This scene will be the most powerful explanation for Wu Chenglu's crime of rebellion from now on.
"Hmph, do you think I'm afraid of you? Come here, arrest me." Wu Chenglu was so angry that he risked his life and gave the order.
The patrol battalion soldiers rushed forward to catch Yuan Su, and Yuan Su's guards immediately rushed forward to stop him.
At first, the number of soldiers Wu Chenglu brought in was not large. The two sides fought and fought with each other, but they were unable to calm down the situation. Later, Wu Chenglu quickly sent people to increase the number of soldiers outside the yard, and even pulled out his pistol and fired into the sky as a warning. Finally, Wu Chenglu
The guards stopped Yuan Su. Several patrol battalion soldiers held ropes to tie up Yuan Su. Yuan Su resisted with all his strength. In the confusion, he was hit several times with rifle butts. In the end, he could not resist the crowd and was taken away.
When Yuan Su and other people from the camp were taken out of the gate, the sky was already bright. Because the soldiers in the patrol camp were walking around, many people living in the surrounding areas had been woken up early, just because they were afraid of offending the soldiers.
They didn't go out to pry. However, these common people still leaned at the windows and looked at the cracks in the doors, and saw with their own eyes that Yuan Su was led out with five-flowered buns tied up.
"Well, Wu Chenglu, you framed me because you were afraid that I would expose you for embezzling disaster relief materials."
"Kill me if you can, otherwise I will definitely deal with you!"
"Let me go, just push your grandma, I will leave on my own. I, Yuan Su, stand upright and have a clear conscience, but I want to see what you can do to me with this unfounded crime!"
"As long as this matter is not resolved, I will submit all your criminal evidence to the capital!"
Pulled by seven or eight soldiers, Yuan Su kept shouting loudly from the moment he stepped out of the gate, showing a strong resistance attitude with an angry look on his face. Although he looked a little shameless, in order to achieve a big event, he had to do this
He can still let go of his dignity. He just wants everyone to know that Wu Chenglu forcibly arrested himself because he was afraid that he would investigate the embezzlement of disaster relief funds. The words "corruption of disaster relief funds" and "forced arrest" will definitely cause a stir.
