As soon as Er Mao left, Admiral Gordon came in. He skillfully gave the little emperor a thousand dollars. It seemed that he was even more skillful than the people of the Qing Dynasty. Who said that Europeans can't practice Chinese etiquette?
That's because the benefits you give are not enough. As long as the benefits are in place, it's okay for him to kowtow to the sky.
"Long live Lord...you called me?"
"Well... I have something for you to do... I can only trust you at this moment!" Zai Chun said hesitantly.
Gordon straightened his chest and said, "Long live Lord, I am your admiral and your minister. Your orders are imperial edicts... Please ask if you have any orders!"
"Well... I have... slept with a woman before... She seems to know some secrets that are not good for me... Go and silence me!"
Gordon's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Of course he knew who that woman was. Gordon was originally connected to the British intelligence agency. The so-called Swedish aristocratic lady was actually a French spy.
It seemed that Emperor Tongzhi was going to destroy all the evidence. Gordon didn't dare to ask any more questions and just nodded and said, "Your Majesty, tell me where she is. I'll take care of it!"
Ten minutes later, Gordon rushed out of the palace. Half an hour later, a group of thugs broke into a villa in the south of the city and forcibly took everyone in the villa away.
That afternoon, the French female spy who had been Emperor Tongzhi's bed plaything was shot dead in the southern suburbs of the city, and his villa was subsequently burned down by a fire.
Zai Chun began to eliminate all the clues that he had contact with the French. It was not until the Prussian train was arranged in the evening that he thought he had done everything perfectly.
Suppressing the fear in his heart, Zai Chun dragged his heavy legs onto the special train. Looking at the southern sky, Zai Chun couldn't help but shudder.
"You have to face what you have to face... This time when I return to the Qing Dynasty, I don't want to be an emperor anymore! The feeling of being oppressed is so unpleasant!"
Just when Emperor Tongzhi had just boarded the train, Bismarck and Xiao Letian had already met in Xunyi. When Bismarck, who was full of dust, saw Xiao Letian who was safe and sound, his body softened and he reached out to hold the pillars in the tent. No falls.
"Scared me to death...you are going to scare me to death..."
Xiao Letian walked over and personally moved a chair and asked Bismarck to sit down. "Why do you come here again? Anyway, the location of the final battle is in the Ardennes Province. We can just meet on the battlefield!"
"Are you still going to fight?"
"Of course, if there was no such thing as a sneak attack, I might still be a guest, but today the King of France has done nothing to kill me. If I don't personally add a shovel of soil to his grave, how can I I’m so willing!”
"Don't persuade me, you can't persuade me!"
Bismarck lit a cigar and sighed, "If such a big thing happens, I can't stop you anymore... But I have a condition!"
"The Emperor cannot die!" Bismarck looked at Xiao Letian resolutely.
"Can't you die? It's really unpleasant..." Xiao Letian deliberately looked indignant.
Bismarck patted him on the shoulder and patiently advised, "A living Emperor is more useful than a dead Emperor... What is the purpose of our war? In addition to obtaining actual benefits, we also want to weaken France for a long time!" "
"Keeping the French Emperor alive means planting a seed in the future of French politics! This country is addicted to restoration, and the Bonaparte family has too many supporters!"
"Let those republicans go off and make trouble, and make the French people miserable. In the end, I guarantee that someone will choose the restoration of the Bonaparte family!"
"With this going on, won't France's national power be consumed in internal fighting? So it is good for us to keep the French Emperor alive!"
Xiao Letian smiled faintly, "I'm afraid it will be good for Prussia! It won't do much good for me!"
Bismarck smiled slyly, "You are a sensible person. If you can think of the secret behind this... Just tell me your conditions!"
"Clever!" Xiao Letian extended his thumbs up. "It's okay if Napoleon III lives. I don't have to pursue the crime of this assassination...but..."
"I want half of the cultural relics in the Louvre!"
"Oh God! Are you trying to make an enemy of the entire French people?" Bismarck suddenly jumped up. "No, no, absolutely not!"
"You don't understand the characteristics of the French nation at all. They can live without bread but cannot live without art...these people's minds are twisted and sick!"
"You want half of the cultural relics in the Louvre? All the people in France will fight you!"
"Haha... when they burned down the Old Summer Palace, did you ever think that I, the Chinese, would fight against them?"
"Prime Minister, please remember that the Chinese nation is a nation that knows how to be grateful but also very vengeful... It is now 1870, but I, the Chinese, still remember the five chaos of China 1,400 years ago!"
"The barbaric nomads in the north killed the Han people, and this hatred has not been resolved until now! These accounts are all remembered in my heart, and they have been remembered for thousands of years!"
"Do you think I will let the French go? I will, but neither will every Chinese citizen!"
"Want to keep the cultural relics from the Louvre? OK, let the French redeem the cultural relics from the Old Summer Palace!"
"If you agree to my condition, then you can say anything. If you don't agree... I don't mind killing the King of France on the battlefield!"
Faced with Xiao Letian's tough attitude, Bismarck thought for a long time, "Hey... you have to pay back your debt. I can agree to this condition, but don't say I didn't remind you..."
"These French guys are really going crazy! If you listen to my advice, then ask for more money and less art..."
Just as the two were secretly discussing the details of dividing the spoils after the war, a burst of excited cheers suddenly came from the telegraph room next to the tent.
"The head of state... the head of state... is so happy!"
"I just received a telegram from the Prussian Army Headquarters... The French Emperor has led one hundred thousand Metz defenders to escape... They are retreating all the way to the north..."
Xiao Letian and Bismarck looked at each other without saying a word and rushed to the side of the huge military map. It showed that the French Emperor's legion war game had begun to move, and the enemy's blue arrow was heading towards Sedan City.
"Great, let Moltke suppress the enemy and hit him, don't hit him too hard..."
"It must be Sedan... A war will definitely break out in Sedan, because this is the largest military fortress in the Ardennes, and the French Emperor has no choice!"
"The final battle has finally arrived! The final battle has finally arrived!"
Directly south of the town of Syny, sixty kilometers away in the French Ardennes province, the 100,000-strong McMahon Army led by the French Emperor moved northward in dejection like a group of plague chickens.
There were injured soldiers everywhere on both sides of the road, and there were even seriously injured people dying on the roadside without anyone caring about them!
The cannon on the road got stuck in the mud, and more than a dozen soldiers pushed the sports car in the mud at the risk of their lives!
Farther to the south, there were faint sounds of artillery and shouts of killing. It was the troops at the rear who were exchanging fire with the Prussians. The whole army was filled with an aura of despair.
