Chapter 340: Riots in the Tianjin Concession

"The central political axe has made miraculous achievements, and the vanguard army has taken credit! The central government has negotiated and recovered Tianjin from the army. But it was occupied by the vanguard army halfway. The central political axe receiver was expelled! ”

"The vanguard army had a secret agreement with Yue Kou, and the Yue army retreated according to this, and the vanguard army stole a false name and let tens of thousands of Yue soldiers leave safely. What's next, what will the Vanguard sell? ”

After the vanguard army occupied Tianjin, many similar rumors immediately rang out everywhere, and many newspapers also rushed to follow, pointing the spearhead directly at the vanguard army.

"What the hell is going on?" Lao Jiang asked He Yingqin directly. Tianjin was recovered through negotiations with the central government, and this is true. With the guarantee of Britain, France and other countries, he also agreed to return Tianjin to the central government. The Central Army has been fighting for so long, and a large city has been reclaimed, either way, it is also a kind of victory for the Central Political Axe.

As for security, coastal defense and land defense will be the affairs of the Fifth Fleet and the Vanguard Army at that time, and the central government can only send people to receive economic taxes. Could it be that the vanguard army will be reversed? Opposing the central government's separatism is what the people are referring to, and Lao Jiang has pinched the line of righteousness, and is not afraid of the vanguard army crossing it at will.

But the vanguard army suddenly appeared and occupied Tianjin.

"What kind of fame is the little devil doing, and he still has a secret agreement?" Meng Xiang was a little surprised by the ferocity of the rumors.

In the end, he said that he was willing to evacuate Tianjin and hoped that the vanguard army would come to receive him. The Central Army has no troops here, so who will go if the vanguard army can't go over?

"I said that I have made up my mind to marry a daughter and a second husband, and throw Tianjin out for the vanguard army and the central army to compete for, so as to sow discord among them." Tang Yaoshi said, this method is very simple, and many people can see at a glance that this is no longer a conspiracy, but a conspiracy in front of everyone.

Tianjin is there, do you want it?

"Naturally! The eyes of so many soldiers were fixed here, they fought hard to get here, and they saw that they were about to take Tianjin, but they were picked the fruit. You say they can say yes? "As the leader of the Vanguard Army, Meng Xiang had no other choice. If you wait for others to pick the fruit and do nothing, it really hurts the hearts of your subordinates. Such a weak attitude will also cause many people to think otherwise.

Since Lao Jiang sent the order to stop the attack, Meng Xiang has been thinking about this problem, at this time Tianjin has been taken by the vanguard army, Tianjin has been surrounded by the vanguard army, and the central army cannot enter at all. When others come to pick fruit, they have to look at this formation.

"It has been found out that those central armies are actually local puppet armies, abandoning the darkness and turning to the light, defecting to the battle, and being canonized by the central government." Pharmacist Tang said with a smile.

"A group of puppet soldiers came to pick fruits under the banner of the central political axe, and they didn't have time to settle accounts with them!" Meng Xiang thought of the transformation of the puppet army after the end of the Anti-Japanese War, and this time I am afraid it will be the same. Even the retreat of the devils was a confrontation with the vanguard army by the puppet army, and the other devils sneaked away, and the ships were all British and American ships used in the name of transporting refugees, so how could the vanguard attack?

Some of the leaders of the puppet army knew that they were too dark, so they directly carried out the ocean and encouraged the soldiers to block the way for the vanguard army to attack. They hid in the concession with the last group of people who stayed behind, waiting for the final disposition of the central political axe.

Such a problem has been considered for a long time, and it is enough to ignore it directly. The reason is simpler, who knows if they defected? There is no basis for words.

Several letters of appointment stamped with red seals urgently issued by the central authorities are being appraised, and the information channel with the central authorities is not good, and it will take time to appraise them one by one. By the time the appraisal was completed, Tianjin was already under the control of the vanguard army. Besides, more people with letters of appointment are staying in the concession to avoid the limelight.

This concession, even the vanguard army, did not dare to touch it easily. The resistance to Tianjin's concession is not only from foreigners, but also from the forces behind the many bigwigs who are living in the apartment. There are still many Chinese people in the concession of Shanghai who have taken refuge there, and Meng Xiang is also a little jealous and does not dare to come hard.

"If you can't deal with the concession at this time, it doesn't mean that you can't do it!" Meng Xiang said to himself lightly.

"Oh my God! This group said what happened to me, they went crazy! Chavez hid in his cramped pantry, looking through the cracks in the walls of the wooden planks that had been corroded by the years, and could only see smoke rising outside.

"It's these Westerners, they betrayed us. Our Tianjin is gone, our homes are gone, our possessions are gone. We have nothing. Now we have to get back what we have from the Westerners. Under the shouts of 100 people, more than 100 people who looked like expatriates began to loot in the British concession with guns and grenades.

The sound of the gunfire frightened everyone, and the smoke from the explosion of the grenade dispersed the people to run and hide.

"Bastard, what are you doing here? This is the British concession. This will cause trouble for the Empire! "I said that when the army withdrew, some people were left behind to organize and manage these expatriates.

"Phew!" With a gunshot in the hands of the 100, the man fell to the ground.

"You lackey of the Westerners, how can our empire be afraid of these golden monkeys? We just got our stuff back! What they plundered. We have nothing, and our wives and children can't survive. As a man, just watch them suffer? Why can't we take back what we have if only those Westerners can come and loot us? Brave Yamato samurai, take up your weapons and join us to break the bridge of the nose that rises high in the West. "The 100 didn't have a lot of acting talent, but the sound of gunfire, explosions, and the cries of people all mixed together to hit the nerves of the other expatriates.

The army was evacuated, but many expatriates were left in the concession, and their property in Tianjin was sold at a low price or confiscated by his agents in foreign countries. Some of the desperated expatriates who came from elsewhere and had nothing. Obedience makes them bear all this silently. But when someone took the lead, and someone had already stormed the houses of the English merchants and began to plunder, when the clanging gold and silver fell to the ground and dazzled the eyes of men, reason had been left behind. Many of them had already taken their guns away when they entered the concession. But you don't have to use a gun to rob.

Sticks and katanas became tools for breaking open the doors of shops and private homes, and the cries of women were particularly sharp in the sound of glass breaking.

Subvert the image of Westerners high up in their minds and make their brains congested. Once that limitation in the heart is set aside, the carnival of depravity makes people excited in confusion. When more and more people participated in the robbery, the herd mentality became a collective impulse of the people, and the chaos soon spread to other concessions. Alarms erupted in the major concessions of Tianjin, and thick smoke and fire could be seen everywhere.

"It's enough to stop in moderation, if it's too much, the tide will sweep all the people, and the Chinese people in the concession will also suffer greatly." Meng Xiang instructed. If it gets bigger, the rich people of those bigwigs have bodyguard guns around them, and ordinary thugs can't rush in, and those ordinary people often become victims.

Taking advantage of the chaos and completing their respective tasks, all the operatives of the vanguard army were evacuated. Only a group of red-eyed expatriates and the people from the patrol house were confronted.

"We need an explanation!" The British and French suffered the most, and they found him in a fit of rage.

"We'll give you an explanation." What else can I say, this time more than 300 overseas Chinese are still being held?

"What the hell is going on?" Kenji Dohihara frowned and asked, "Is it really an expatriate riot?" ”

"It may be that many people know the person in charge, that person Yasuo Nakajima, is a spice shop vendor, mainly selling soy sauce. There is also a grocery store vendor who is also known to everyone. It was the two of them who took the lead and caused this uproar. Sakata Guiji bowed his head and said, "Do they have any other dealings?" Kenji Tohihara always felt that something was wrong this time.

"After a detailed investigation, there are no other bad records, and there is no association with other forces. Most likely spontaneous behavior. "Sakata Guiji investigated in great detail, but he didn't find anything wrong, these two people are ordinary ordinary civilians who can't be ordinary anymore.

"Soviet Russia. They behave like Soviet Russia! It may have been the influence of Soviet Russia that made them plan this operation to retaliate against the Westerners. Kenji Dohihara smiled and said, "You need to find more clues!" ”

Sakata Guiji was stunned, and then he understood, such a hat was buttoned to the head of Soviet Russia first, anyway, people who were influenced by Soviet Russians often did this.

"Yes, although they had fled, they found a lot of Soviet books and slogans in their dwellings. Our diaspora has been bewitched by them. Sakata nodded.

Kenji Dohihara nodded. can only buckle the hat to the side of Soviet Russia, if the vanguard army is framed, it will be easy to make mistakes when the confrontation is made. Besides, the British corporation has captured so many expatriates in this country, will they believe that the Chinese did it? On the contrary, it is the infiltration of the Russians that will make everyone vigilant.
