Xiang Ying gave a look, and his soldiers rushed over, surrounding Blanqui and the four survivors.
At this time, the follow-up troops also came up sporadically, and nearly two hundred people were crowded in the open space outside the village.
Xiang Ying cannot be a mere commander when traveling. There are as many as 120 people of all kinds, including translators, secretaries, dragon guards, and soldiers.
Xiang Ying's goal this time was the south of France, and he wanted to cross the entire France. The provisional defense government was afraid of any accidents and sent more than 30 accompanying personnel.
Among them were senior officials from the army, as well as civilian officials from the parliament. Among them, the leader of the group, who had just caught up with him on horseback, panting, was none other than Satrauman from the National Assembly.
France sent an entourage, and Germany was also worried about Xiang Ying's safety. Moltke personally ordered a major to be sent with 20 cavalry to escort Xiang Ying south. This brought the entire team to nearly 170 people. .
This is only the number of people setting off from Paris, and the French provinces along the way also have the obligation to protect them. They have packed many guides, local officials and soldiers into the team.
Total Ling Ling, the number of this team exceeds 200!
Many people don't understand why Xiang Ying has such a large presence when traveling. Both France and Germany have sent accompanying personnel to accompany him?
This is actually not surprising at all, because Xiang Ying’s identity is so special!
The Zhiyuan is currently the most powerful armored warship in the world navy, and Xiang Ying is the first captain. According to the experience of navies of various countries, this person will definitely hold the position of Navy Marshal or Navy Prime Minister in the future.
Not only that, he is also Xiao Letian's personal disciple. Maybe one day he will enter the civil service system to challenge a prime minister.
This is a future political star of the Chinese ethnic group who is definitely worth focusing on cultivating.
To give an inappropriate example, this is like the visit of the Ford-class aircraft carrier captain of the most powerful aircraft carrier battle group in the United States in later generations, and this captain is also the direct disciple or nephew of a president like Roosevelt.
This person's family is still a very important leadership family in the American elite political circle!
When such a person visits a medium-sized country, the treatment he will receive will naturally be extremely high!
Xiang Ying is such an example. Among other things, he has the right to inherit the Far East Kingdom, and European politicians do not dare to underestimate him.
If Xiang Shaolong never had an heir, then the crown would most likely fall on Xiang Ying's head in the future.
At this moment, Xiang Ying stopped joking with the dragon guards, rode forward and walked to the scarred Blanqui, pretending to be surprised and said, "Huh? Isn't this Mr. Blanqui? The leader of the Paris Commune, the leader of the left-wing forces in the parliament ?”
"Aren't you going to Bordeaux to vote in the election? Why are you in such a mess?"
Blanqui smiled bitterly, "Captain of the Zhiyuan? Mr. Xiang Ying? Haha, please stop laughing at me... As you can see, I almost died!"
oh? Xiang Ying pretended to be surprised and turned around to ask Congressman Saul Laumann, "Dear Congressman, has the public security in France reached this point? Even politicians can't guarantee safety?"
"Wait...how come the person who attacked Mr. Blanqui was the garrison?"
Sal Laumann is an ordinary member of the Great Council. He does not have great power because his family is very weak and he does not have much money.
But this person is very practical and popular, and he is not offended by all factions, so he can be regarded as a smart person who is good at dancing.
This time General Trochu sent him to accompany Xiang Ying because he wanted his low-key and peaceful character. Also, the factional label on this person was not obvious and he was very neutral.
Sal Laumann frowned: "General! This seems to be France's internal affairs... you'd better not interfere!"
"Ouch! It's an internal matter! I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I apologize for the rude behavior of my subordinates. Since it is an internal matter, I will not interfere..."
"Brothers...take some photos, and then let's continue on our way!"
"Hey, hey, hey... General, what do you mean, don't take pictures? Do you want to be exposed?" Sal Lauman quickly reached out to stop him.
The accompanying French soldiers, under the command of Captain Philippe, quickly isolated the Chinese and French villagers. When they saw someone with a camera ready, they immediately jumped in front of them and waved their hands to block the lens.
Sallauman whispered to Xiang Ying, "General! What do you mean? Why do you want to intervene in the grudges between the commune and my French government? It seems that it has nothing to do with you!"
Xiang Ying sneered and said, "It's none of my business, I won't talk about it for now... I just want to ask you one thing, when did France start using assassination to replace votes?"
"Is this France where human rights are equal? Is this how you express your fairness and justice? Haha... take a photo as a souvenir. I will also write a memoir in the future to explain everything here clearly!"
"Congressman! Is it the internal affairs of France that I am interfering in? Or is it the personal grudges between your factions? This needs to be made clear in advance!"
Sweat broke out on Sallauman's forehead. "General, what do you want? Whether we are here for business or for personal reasons... this has nothing to do with you, and it has nothing to do with the head of state!"
Xiang Ying sneered twice, "Of course it does matter, because my heart is full of fairness and justice! Kindness is my motto, and compassion is my life creed!"
Vomiting... Sal Lauman wanted to vomit when he said these words, and even Xiang Ying himself felt sick.
It couldn't be more true or false. A stormtrooper leader who could plot to assassinate Zai Chun actually said the words kindness and compassion, which is really dumbfounding.
Xiang Ying didn't bother to tell the French apart. He just looked at the flying Chinese military flag with pride. The meaning was very obvious, "We are the victors! We are stepping on French soil in the name of the occupying army!"
"You are the conquered, what qualifications do losers have to negotiate with me...I can interfere with whatever I want!"
Sal Laumann gritted his teeth and stamped his feet and sighed, "I can't make the decision in this matter... This is beyond the scope of my rights..."
"Take a photo of me as a souvenir...inform the liaison officer in London to reserve a page in The Times for me!" Xiang Ying raised his head and said indifferently.
"Don't... don't..." Representative Sal Laumann was sweating anxiously. "It's okay not to kill him! But Blanqui must be arrested! This is the limit of what I can do! It's really the limit. Got it!"
Blanqui was as angry as a tiger at this moment. He found that his life had become the object of others' transactions. Between the collision of the big man's red mouth and white teeth, his life and death were as uncertain as duckweed.
"Why! I am a French national, and I participated in the preparation of the provisional defense government! The party I lead is a legal party!"
"Why do you arrest me? Why do you assassinate me!"
For no reason, just with force and force, a group of French soldiers rushed forward, locked his arms, and held his head down!
