Chapter 223: Planting Blame (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"Damn, you dare to massacre Russians, this is a provocation to the great Russian Empire. You must release the Russians immediately and compensate the dead and wounded. Otherwise, the great Russian Empire will never let you go! ”
In the provincial government of Mongolia, the office of the governor Sun Liechen, the Russian consul in Kulen, Liu Ba, was pointing at Sun Liechen's nose and scolding. The Russian caravan was armed with more than 3,000 men and suffered heavy losses in the battle against the 6th Cavalry Brigade. Not only were more than half of the casualties killed, but almost all of the remaining people were captured, and only Colonel Mikhail saw the opportunity quickly and fled to the consulate.
Having suffered such heavy losses, the Russians naturally did not do it. It's not just that their painstaking plan has failed. It also means that they are responsible for it. Therefore, Consul Liu Ba immediately came to the door with great momentum, trying to put the charge on the head of the Northern Army first, and force the Northern Army to admit that it was their responsibility. And then it extorted benefits from the northern government. In this case, he may be exempted from the charge of dereliction of duty.
It's just that he seems to think too much about Russia's influence. The northern government and the northern army are not weak Qing Dynasty, once they are scolded by foreign adults, they will tremble with fright, and then betray the interests of the country with trembling.
Long before Wu Haoxuan went to Kulen, the northern government and the northern army were ready for war with the Russians. Therefore, in the face of Consul Liu Ba's blackmail, Sun Liechen was not only not frightened, but fought back.
"Your Excellency, you are reversing black and white! The government of the north believes that the riot in Kulen was planned and participated in by you Russians. Your country's interference in our internal affairs has already affected our most fundamental interests. The government of the North will hold the Russian side accountable! Sun Liechen did not give in and responded-for-tat.
Sun Liechen's tough attitude. Consul Liu Ba was a little dumbfounded. His predecessor told him that the Chinese were timid guys. As long as they roar in front of them, they will be scared as if they are rabbits. But now the other party's performance seems to be different from what his predecessor said! However, of course, Consul Liu Ba will not admit this.
"Slander, this is simply a slander against the Russian Empire. All I see is that your army is wantonly killing innocent Russians. God, they're just law-abiding businessmen. But you have raised your butcher's knives against them! God will punish you, and the Russian Empire will make you pay. Consul Liu Ba said viciously.
"Law-abiding businessmen? Bullshit! They fought us on the walls of Kulen and inflicted huge casualties on our army, what kind of law-abiding merchants are these? We suspect that this is simply the regular army of the Russian Army. Russia has sent regular troops to the territory of the kingdom without authorization, which has already constituted an invasion of our country. The Russian government must give an explanation to our country! Sun Liechen scolded.
"They, they thought the horse thieves were going to attack Cullen, so they helped defend them." Consul Liu Ba's eyes rolled. Came up with a lame reason. If it is admitted that Russia sent troops into Kulen, then it is not to hand over the handle to the other side? Of course, the Russian government has never paid any attention to this. They are more adept at using strong forces to deal with their opponents.
"Humph! Your Excellency Consul, do you believe such a reason yourself? Sun Liechen looked at Consul Liu Ba with a sneering expression.
Consul Liu Ba knew that it would not work if he wanted to forcibly put the charges on the heads of the northern government and the northern army. If you stay any longer, it won't do you any good. Thereupon. After only being able to drop a cruel word, he left the Mongolian provincial government in a huff.
Subsequently. The Northern Army sent a platoon of men to surround the Russian consulate in Kulen, in the name of protecting the consul's safety. But in reality, it was to capture the backbone of the separatists who planned the riots. According to the information obtained by the Northern Army, the backbone of the separatists such as Prince Hangda Dorzi had fled to the Russian consulate and hid.
Of course. This also caused dissatisfaction and protest from the Russian consul, but the northern army was unmoved, which made Consul Liu Ba helpless.
Gaden Monastery, the palace where the Living Buddha lived. It's just that this place is now under the control of the Northern Army. After the death of the living Buddha's Buddhist soldiers. The Living Buddha Jebtsundamba VIII has been placed under house arrest. Although, Wu Haoxuan has already decided to poison the living Buddha of Jebtsundamba VIII. But before the plan is ready, he must be kept alive.
As a result, the Eighth Living Buddha of Jebtsundamba found that the Northern Army had no intention of killing him, which made him feel relieved. He also brazenly proposed to the commander of the Northern Army company in charge of controlling the Ganden Monastery, asking them to release the Living Buddha Woman Karina.
The backbone elements who planned the riot, such as Grand Lama Chelin Tsimit, have been arrested, and the living Buddha woman Karina has also been taken away as Russian spies. At that time, the Eighth Living Buddha Jebtsundamba himself was frightened enough, so naturally he could only watch them being captured.
Regarding the request of the Eighth Living Buddha of Jebtsundamba, the company commander of the Northern Army directly ignored it. The Eighth Living Buddha of Jebtsundamba, who touched his gray nose, was very angry, but he had no choice, he was afraid that these fierce and vicious northern officers and soldiers would kill him.
At this time, Karina, the living Buddha woman missed by Jebtsundamba VIII, had been captured in a hidden courtyard controlled by the Northern Army. Wu Haoxuan's guard captain Zhao Hu led people to appear here.
"Karina, if you don't want to die, we can give you a chance to live. However, it depends on whether you are worthy of cooperation or not. Zhao Hu said expressionlessly.
"Sir, I will definitely cooperate, you can do whatever you ask me to do. I can accompany you if you need it. I am a woman of the Living Buddha, and I am extremely noble. Karina thought she was certain to die, but now she saw a glimmer of life. She said as she unbuttoned her long skirt. Suddenly, a fair-skinned body was exposed to the air.
Karina is still very confident in her plump body, and she believes that the young Northern Army officer in front of her will definitely be fascinated by her, so that she will be able to survive.
Pity. Karina's wishful thinking failed. Although the fair-skinned body made Zhao Hu's blood surge a little, he was ordered by Wu Haoxuan to let Karina cooperate, how could he lose a big one because of a small one.
"Put on your clothes! If you have a penchant for exposure, I can throw you into the barracks. Zhao Hu said indifferently.
"Ahh Karina screamed and quickly put on her long dress. She was a spy trained by Russian intelligence, so she naturally knew what the consequences would be if she was sent to the barracks. It is estimated that it will be killed directly by those who are soldiers!
"Good. As long as you cooperate, I promise to let you live. We will let you go back to the Living Buddha, and at the right opportunity, mix this thing with the Living Buddha's tea and let the Living Buddha drink it. Zhao Hu handed out a glass vial.
"This, this is poison, you want me to poison the Living Buddha?" Karina said in horror.
"Yes!" Zhao Hu nodded directly.
Karina was a little hesitant, though, she was a living Buddha. But there is no affection between her and the living Buddha. She was just ordered to lurk around the Living Buddha, spy on intelligence, and influence the Living Buddha at the same time.
"After I poisoned the Living Buddha, will you really let me go?" Karina asked.
"Of course! However, you have to admit that you were instructed by the Russian government. Then, you'll be able to give it a makeover. Went on with life. Zhao Hu said. The most important thing is not to poison the living Buddha. Rather, blame the Russians.
"You want me to blame Russia?" Karina's face changed dramatically. As a Russian, she was very reluctant to do so.
"If you're not willing to do that, then we'll just be able to kill you and choose someone else." Zhao Hu's face was full of murderous intent.
Karina hesitated, but nodded. The ** who survived, after all, defeated his loyalty to the country.
All the Mongol princes and nobles who participated in the rebellion were either killed in the battle, fled to the Russian consulate, or were captured by the Northern army. These princes. It's just a small group of princes. There are still a large number of remaining princes who are neutral. However, after the Northern Army suppressed the riot with a thunderbolt, they immediately made a choice.
In the evening of the same day, Sun Liechen, governor of Mongolian Province of the Northern Government, and Brigadier General Wang Liangchen, commander of the 6th Cavalry Brigade of the Northern Army, led a group of princes and nobles who expressed their support for the government to Ganden Monastery to meet the living Buddha.
The Living Buddha Jebtsundamba VIII is not a fool, he knows that the tide has now turned. Therefore, he declared to the princes and nobles that he supported the northern government, and anyone who tried to rebel against the northern government would be spurned by the Buddha and would go to hell.
Other princes and nobles also expressed their support for the rule of the northern government, and at the same time denounced Prince Handa Dorji and others.
Sun Liechen and Wang Liangchen had smiles on their faces. At the same time, Wang Liangchen secretly made a gesture to Karina. Karina hesitated, but got up and served a cup of tea for the Living Buddha Jebtsundampa. It's just that when she turned her back to everyone, she spilled the poison in the glass vial that Zhao Hu handed over to her into the tea.
The Living Buddha Jebtsundamba was not aware of the danger at all, and after taking the tea, he drank it all. But after a few minutes, his face was pale, and black blood was pouring from the corners of his mouth.
"Damn! This Russian woman poisoned the Living Buddha! Wang Liangchen roared.
The other Mongolian princes were dumbfounded, they didn't expect the Living Buddha to be poisoned at this time. (To be continued......)
