C3317 Raiding refugees (1/2)
”Following the orders of the President of the France, Mr. Thiers, we request for your troops to immediately close the camp and stop accepting these traitors. You have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of our France …”
The sudden appearance of a battalion of French troops in the west gate of the refugee camp caused quite a commotion.
Since the start of the war, the government had never set foot in this area. This area was controlled by the Paris Commune and the Chinese.
He never would have thought that when the wave of refugees first appeared, McMahon's army would also rush over. What did this mean?
This meant that the Paris Commune had started to lose their position on a large scale, their defensive network had already broken into pieces, and even the rear couldn't protect any longer.
The appearance of the refugees had proved that there was chaos within the community. Their ability to control the population was disappearing and their confidence was crumbling.
Now that they had seen the presence of government troops in an area that should not have existed, all the Chinese soldiers could smell the impending doomsday.
”I am the leader of the second independent regiment of the integrated Third Division of the army, Major Han Si! Ask the highest ranking officer in your department to come forward and negotiate! ”
Standing in front of Wang Chen was a middle aged man with a golden back hair. His greasy hair was not messy at all, making people feel annoyed just by looking at him.
”Major? A major wants to see our highest officer? ”Are you qualified …” Wang Chen said in disdain.
Han Si's face changed, a burst of anger filled his heart, but looking at the killing camp in front of him, he could only retract his European arrogance.
”Sir, I am the President's authorized vanguard unit. I am here to negotiate on behalf of the President … Why can't I see your supreme officer? ”
”If you don't want us to see it, then that is fine. I will pass on the attitude of the France Government now!”
”This rebellion in Paris is an internal affair of our The French Empire. You have no right to interfere … This so-called demilitarized zone is illegal and our Government does not recognize it! ”
”For the sake of the friendship between the two countries, we can refrain from carrying out any threatening actions against you, but please close the camp door!”
”On what basis? ”Why isn't it your turn to point fingers at us Chinese …” Wang Chen and his comrades shouted in anger.
However, he never expected that this Major Han Si who came today was not an ordinary person. Not only was he not angry, he also smiled: ”Your side and I have signed the Frankfurt Treaty, we are no longer in a state of war …”
”You are allowed to garrison your troops. This is a stopgap measure before the payment is made. As long as we have enough money, you will have to leave France …”
”Two countries that are not at war, what right do you have to interfere in our internal affairs? Even if we fight a civil war, what has it got to do with you? ”
”I'm here to courteously negotiate with you. If you refuse, then we will unilaterally carry out our military order!”
”Soldiers!” These so-called refugees' identities are unknown, so they must go through trial in a court of law to be arrested and taken away … ”
”I dare you!” Wang Chen had wanted to do whatever she wanted at that time.
”Why would I not dare? Is this Paris? Is this France? I am executing military orders in my own country, what qualifications do you have to interfere? ”
”Soldiers!” Execute Command... If the Chinese shoot, let them shoot... ”If you have the guts, kill all of my people!”
Cough *, the entire camp was in an uproar. The refugees screamed out loud in fright, ”We are not going with them …” They will kill people, please save me... ”Let me into the camp!”
The first refugees to enter the camp were also shocked by the chaos. They rushed to the fence and desperately reached out for it. They called out the names of their family and friends, screaming for them to quickly squeeze in.
One step forward meant survival, one step back meant death!
Han Si's Independence Group was also a group of reckless thugs. They had fought with the French Emperor for their entire lives, and their guts were as high as the heavens themselves.
The group of people rushed into the middle of the refugees and started to smash them with the butts of their guns and stab them with bayonets.
