The fierce battle ended after half an hour, because in less than half an hour, nearly three hundred soldiers of the Holy See Guard were almost completely slaughtered. Soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 231st Regiment of the Chinese Army returned fire immediately after their comrades were attacked by the Holy See Guards. The fierce fire instantly suppressed the Holy See Guards. After killing Redeye, they didn't stop until they had killed all the people who resisted! At this time, the entire Vatican had been killed and wounded, in addition to the soldiers of the Holy See Guard, many clergy were injured by mistake, and those members of the Italian royal family who resisted and high-ranking officials were also killed and wounded, even the Italian king Vittorio. Emmanuele III was shot in both arms.
"Lao He, what now? With so many people dead, how can we explain to His Majesty the Emperor? General Du Qizheng, commander of the 7th Group Army of the Chinese Army, looked at the corpses all over St. Peter's Square and said with a headache!
"Dog, at the last critical moment, there was such a mess!" The commander of the 8th Army, General He Bingju, couldn't help but curse! Originally, the squadron had entered the Vatican without firing a single shot, and it seemed that this conflict would end peacefully, but I didn't expect such a problem to arise in the end.
"You executioners! If you dare to do anything to the clergy, you will all go to hell! I'm fighting with you! An elderly clergyman in a luxurious robe yelled and rushed towards Admiral Du Qizheng. It looks like he wants to swallow Admiral Du Qizheng in one gulp!
"Bang!" The gun went off. Admiral Du Qizheng's guards shot and killed the elderly cleric. The high-ranking generals of the Chinese Army all had jǐng guards. And the task of the jǐng guards is to protect the generals. Eliminate the threat of a qiē.
"Ahh The priests and nuns, who were watching from afar, couldn't help but scream loudly.
Admiral Du Qizheng frowned, he originally wanted to reprimand, but in the end he didn't say anything. After all, Jǐng Guard is also thinking about his safety. Besides, they all killed so many people anyway, and it's nothing to kill one more!
"General, the truth of the matter has been ascertained! The 1st Battalion, while capturing the Italian royal family and high-ranking officials, was counterattacked by pistols carried by high-ranking Italian officials. We lost one soldier. Then the soldiers killed the Italian high-ranking official! And the guards of the Holy See heard the shots and thought that we had opened fire on the clergy of the Vatican, so they opened fire on us! As a result, the scuffle broke out! The commander of the 231st regiment said with his head drooping. Clearly, he also had in mind the consequences of such a tragedy in the Vatican.
"A misunderstanding!" Admiral He Bingju sighed. A misunderstanding caused such a scuffle, and this will undoubtedly have a great impact on China's image in the world. One can imagine how hostile the Catholics would be to China. China will also appear to be very passive in the next international activities, and the rift between China and the Western world will further widen!
"Lao He, how should we end up now?" Admiral Du Qizheng asked. Although he had long been clamoring to kill all these magic sticks in the Vatican, he was also a little worried after the incident really happened.
"What else? Lao Du. This incident was originally a misunderstanding. Besides, His Majesty the Emperor had already ordered it. Once we are attacked, we can fight back! Control the form shì here, and report the specific situation to the emperor's majesty! Admiral He Bingju said!
Subsequently, the squadron cleaned up all the bodies that had died in the firefight, and brought doctors from Rome to treat the wounded. After that, the squadron withdrew from the Vatican, but the siege of the Vatican continued. Who knows what these church people will do when they are crazy. The high-ranking officials of the Italian royal family and zhèngfǔ were also taken to the royal palace of Caserta and imprisoned.
This time the Vatican conflict (known in the West as the Vatican tragedy) quickly spread throughout the world, and the Eastern world did not react to it, while the Western time has turned upside down. Demonstrations against China broke out in almost all Western countries, whether they were the Allies or the Entente, and the angry people demanded that the war be stopped, and all Western countries united to form a crusade and fight to the death against the Chinese! In the eyes of these Catholics, the Chinese who dare to kill God's servants in the Vatican are already their enemies! Of course, the Entente wanted to stop the war and unite against China. But the Allies, who had already achieved complete superiority on the battlefield, were somewhat reluctant. They are finally going to win this world war, and if the war is stopped, they will not be able to recover the huge price they paid in the war! Besides, the main countries of the Central Powers were imperial, and although they believed in God, they did not have a good opinion of the Vatican. Austrian Emperor Franz. Joseph I even rushed to lament that the squadron did not kill Pope Pius X!
Fierce armed clashes broke out in the Vatican, and there were a large number of casualties, which was reported by the Guò telegram. Chinese Prime Minister Wu Tingfang, Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi, War Minister Zhao Bowen, Navy Minister Zhang Cheng, and Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo once again met with Emperor Wang Yuze overnight to discuss countermeasures with him. They didn't seem to expect the situation to turn out like this, and everyone was caught off guard!
"In other words, this conflict is simply a misunderstanding" Wang Yuze rubbed his brows, looking very speechless.
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's a misunderstanding! But this misunderstanding will cause an uproar! I guess tomorrow morning we will be protested by all the countries that believe in Catholicism! Prime Minister Wu Tingfang said with a wry smile!
"What's the big deal? Do they dare to go to war against us? Navy Minister Zhang Cheng said disdainfully. He never thought it was a big deal to attack the Vatican!
"In this way, we will announce to the world that this conflict is simply a misunderstanding, and we do not want that to happen. But the conflict has already happened, and we can only regret it! Wang Yuze ignored the arrogant remarks of Navy Minister Zhang Cheng, and then said.
"Your Majesty, is this the end? No need to apologize to the Vatican or make amends? Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi said.
"Apologize? Why should I apologize to them? This time again, it's not our fault. As for compensation and the like, let them ask the Italians for it! If the Italians don't want to, we can help them! Wang Yuze said. Since he became emperor, he did not intend to apologize to foreign countries or anything like that. Needless to say, it's not China's fault, even if it's China's fault, it's impossible to apologize! Now China's strength is enough to make the Chinese straighten their waists!
"This, okay, Majesty, I know!" Tang Shaoyi nodded!
"Your Majesty, should we be ready militarily?" War Minister Marshal Zhao Bowen asked.
"Just follow the plan! Also, get the armies everywhere ready for battle! If the Western world really dares to unite to go to war with us, we will not be afraid of them! Wang Yuze said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" War Minister Marshal Zhao Bowen said. Now that the squadron has gained superiority on all battlefields, and the battle on the Siberian Plain is about to be decided, the squadron has enough ability to cope with any challenge!
At 9 a.m. běijīng time on May 22, China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs held a press conference to explain to the world the beginning and end of the Vatican conflict. On behalf of the Emperor, Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi expressed regret over this conflict!
At the press conference, a Western reporter attacked and insulted China as an executioner, but was beaten down by security guards twice, and then dragged out of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, confiscated his passport, and expelled him from China!
After having an example, the Western reporters who followed all restrained their feelings, and although they all expressed their dissatisfaction with China, they deliberately did not use insulting words anymore.
Tang Shaoyi's attitude was very resolute, insisting that the conflict was a complete misunderstanding, and that the Chinese side was not wrong, it was the Italians who fired the gun who were at fault! Moreover, China will never apologize for this incident!
China's attitude has caused a backlash in Western time, and many European cities have erupted in demonstrations against the Chinese. Hashina, who was abroad, was also hurt, and some were beaten or even killed!
China stood up for the first time, and told the countries to restrain their own people! Whether it is the Central Powers or the Entente Powers, if there are any more casualties in the name of the Chinese bridge, for every one person killed, China will kill ten people to make up for it!
As a result, dozens of expatriates were still killed in France after the Chinese zhèngfǔ issued a jǐng notice. Subsequently, the Chinese Navy's aircraft carriers Jiuhuashan and Putuoshan dispatched hundreds of carrier-based aircraft to bomb the southern French city of Marseille, killing tens of thousands of French people in the bombing. At this time, no one dares to question the jǐng sue of the Chinese side, the zhèngfǔ of various countries have strengthened the jǐng precepts, and the people can initiate a march, but they must not harm the name of the Chinese diaspora, otherwise they will be severely punished or even shot! After all, China zhèngfǔ does what it says, makes the enemy pay more than ten times the price, and all countries are scared!
China's allies, Germany and Austria-Hungary, also protested against the Vatican's conflict, but then their jīng efforts were focused on how to deal with Italy, and the Vatican's accusation of Pope Pius X had long since been forgotten! )
