The second volume is full of glory and splendor in the capital, and the spirit is full of vitality in the foggy city. Chapter 318: 723 (End)
Subtitle of this chapter: Lao Yuan, I’ll treat the whole world to chicken!
In the previous chapter, Yuan Yan suddenly took advantage of the dog and rabbit's unpreparedness to launch a surprise attack and knocked out the two cute little animals.
Then he fought with the snake-faced man with fists and kicks for a... no, it was half a round before he defeated his opponent.
However, this martial arts master showed no joy after his victory. Instead, he apologized bitterly to the Prince of Wales and Prince Di Gong.
Then he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highnesses, these crazy bandits are absolutely the scum among us Chinese!"
He bowed again and said, "I absolutely do not agree with their actions, but as a Chinese, I want to apologize to you."
The two princes were of course deeply moved. The British Crown Prince stepped forward to support him and said, "Dr. Yuan, you are truly a brave and wise knight!"
Oh, so there’s a chance I could become a British nobleman.
The Crown Prince of Japan also praised him in Chinese: "Yuan Qing, you are a very good person!"
Well, it seems that when I go to Japan in the future, there will definitely be a lot of beautiful girls!
"Thank you both for your compliments, Your Highnesses. I feel deeply unworthy of them. However, the situation is urgent..."
Yuan Yan straightened up suddenly and said hurriedly while taking off her clothes: "Your Highnesses, please quickly change into their black robes, put on their masks, and take their guns!"
He continued to explain, "I'm here to take you out. But I don't know if there are any of their accomplices out there. You're too conspicuous in your suits!"
"Carrying a gun is just in case."
When the Prince of Wales and Prince Di Gong heard this, they thought it made sense and immediately took off their formal attire. Then, together with Master Yuan, they stripped off the black robes and masks of the three terrorists .
"Hey, this is a woman?!"
The snake-faced man is naturally a beautiful snake, but Miss Gu Mengmeng is now a little foreign girl with red hair.
“Hey, they’re not Chinese?!”
"Snake" Gu Mengmeng, "Rabbit" Li Mu, and "Dog" Chen Danning were all disguised as Westerners by "Monkey" Zeng Xianzhang.
The natural way to do this is to muddy the waters.
"Your Highnesses, it seems there must be something fishy going on here." Master Yuan said solemnly, "But let's wait until it's safe."
"Yes!" Both crown princes nodded.
He asked Hirohito, "Your Highness Prince Di, do you know how to get out the back door?"
"I know, this way!"
"Your Highnesses, please follow me..."
And when they turned a corner, the three "unconscious" people immediately woke up.
Actually, needless to say, this is just a play.
Our Master Yuan pretended to be unconscious, and the three of them pretended not to know that he was pretending to be unconscious.
When the time was right, Master Yuan, who had pretended to be unconscious, beat up the three people who pretended not to know that he was pretending to be unconscious.
Next, it was the turn of these three to pretend to be unconscious, and this time it was Master Yuan's turn to pretend not to know that they were pretending to be unconscious.
Li Mu, whose figure is similar to that of the Prince of Wales, wore the formal dress of the British Crown Prince, while the petite Gu Mengmeng naturally dressed up as the Crown Prince of Japan.
The two of them put on black hoods, took out two pistols and began to search every room inside the embassy to ensure that no one escaped.
Chen Danning followed the fleeing trio silently to confirm the situation.
Yuan Yanshu and the other two walked out of the back door safely.
"Great, there's no one here!"
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. The Prince of Wales suddenly pointed ahead excitedly and said, "Look, there are police officers over there!"
Sure enough, a police carriage with the Scotland Yard emblem was parked not far away, and under the carriage was a policeman looking vigilantly in the direction of the embassy.
Because it was a little dark and the street lights were a little dim, I couldn't see the policeman's face clearly. I could only see that he had a thick beard.
I think they must have heard the noise inside, so they appeared here.
Before Master Yuan could speak, the British Crown Prince rushed forward.
"STOP!" One of the policemen, hiding behind the carriage, shouted, "Stop, or I'll shoot!"
The Prince of Wales then remembered that he was dressed like a "terrorist." He immediately took off his mask and said, "Officer, take a good look. It's me!"
"You are..." The bearded policeman came out from behind the carriage after seeing this and said in absolute surprise, "You are... You are His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales! Your Highness..."
"Officer, gangsters have broken into the Japanese embassy! Go notify your superiors and send someone here immediately!"
At this time, Prince Digong and Yuan Yanshu also ran over.
Master Yuan said hurriedly: "I think the first priority now is to ensure the safety of the two princes."
"Officer, please get us out of here!"
The police officer nodded upon hearing this and said, "This gentleman is right. Your Highness, please get in the car. I will take you to the nearest police station."
The Crown Prince of England and Japan thought about it and nodded in agreement.
"Your Highness, be careful."
The bearded policeman carefully helped the Prince of Wales into the car. Someone inside the car said, "Your Highness, let me help you."
"Thank you... wuwuwu..."
"Sir, you should be careful too."
Then the police outside the car very considerately carried Prince Di Gong into the car.
"This is..." Hirohito asked in surprise after getting in the car, but the second half of the sentence was also completed, "Wuwuwu..."
"call out!"
Yuan Yan, who was walking at the back, suddenly realized something was wrong. He sniffed and smelled the sweet and fishy smell of ripe fruit.
He was shocked and blurted out: "What is this smell..."
"Well, like I said before, I'll release the lady and the old man first."
Not long after Yuan Yanshu left, the pig-headed man began to fulfill his promise.
"Ladies, please line up."
"By the way..." Fu Changsheng walked to the front of the men's team and pointed at Gu Weijun among them and said, "Mr. Shaochuan, you can also go out."
The Chinese ambassador to Britain asked in surprise, "Do you know me?"
"Mr. Shaochuan, do you think our Hibiscus Corps is a group of ignorant villagers called the Boxers?"
The pig-headed man retorted, "Of course we know you. That's why we let you go. We hope you can tell the Beijing government and ask them to support our just actions..."
Gu Weijun couldn't help but interrupt, "Beijing won't support you!"
The current President of the Republic of China is the Beiyang old man - Xu Shichang.
The Prime Minister was Jin Yunpeng, one of Duan Qirui's "Four Great King Kongs." Although he came from the Anhui faction, he defected to Marshal Zhang during the Zhi-An War. After the Zhi-An War, he unexpectedly became one of the "Big Four" alongside Zhang Zuolin, Cao Kun, and Xu Shichang.
At the time, Foreign Minister Yan Huiqing and Yuan Yanshu were both from Shanghai. Yan Huiqing possessed extensive diplomatic experience, having served as envoy to several major European powers and as Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Qing Dynasty. He was an advisor to the Chinese delegation at the Paris Peace Conference and would later head the Chinese delegation to the Washington Conference.
In short, the person in power at that time was not an old lady like the Empress Dowager Cixi who had no idea about the situation in the West, so she would not make a big joke of declaring war on all nations.
Because of this, it is absolutely impossible for the Beijing government to support this action.
"Well, we also know that the current Chinese government is..." The pig-headed man actually sighed and said, "We don't have high hopes, but we have to try our best."
"Besides, why would we keep you here? If we kill you, Mr. Shaochuan, the British and Japanese won't mind at all."
"And now that we've done something like this, the British government will definitely use it as an excuse to persecute local Chinese. They still need you, Mr. Shaochuan, to come forward and protect them."
In reality, Master Yuan and his men had long understood that such an incident would be detrimental to the Chinese expatriates in Britain, especially the Hongmen, in the short term. However, for the sake of the greater good, they had no choice but to make the sacrifice.
"Oh..." Gu Weijun sighed and nodded silently.
He left Gu Weijun and said to the men, "Gentlemen over sixty, please come out. You can go with the ladies. I believe you are gentlemen, so please behave yourself..."
These old guys are likely to be sick. If something happens to them, wouldn’t it be a disgrace to the reputation of the Hibiscus Corps for its “benevolence and righteousness”?
However, Fu Changsheng stopped one of them and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Curzon. I know you are sixty-two years old, but you can't leave."
The Foreign Secretary, who was born in 1859, gave the pig-headed man a fierce look. He didn't argue at all, but walked back to Churchill's side without saying a word.
"you!"
Fu Changsheng pointed at Yamamoto Isoroku who was wearing a military uniform.
"you!"
This time it was Nomura Kichisaburo, also dressed as a soldier.
“You, you, you, you…”
Fu Changsheng pointed at everyone else in military uniform except Inoue Narumi and said, "You can leave too."
That's right, he wanted to eliminate the unstable factors among the hostages.
The "Hibiscus Army" is actually a ragtag group, some of whose members are barely even competent. If the time comes to fire, it's unclear whether someone like Gu Mengmeng would pull the trigger.
Many of their hostages were veterans who had fought in World War I and possessed rich military experience. If a real fight broke out, it was hard to say who would win or lose.
So, not to mention soldiers, all men who looked tough and had a strong physique were released.
In the end, he only kept less than one-fifth of the 250 hostages, which was estimated to be about 40 or so.
At this time, Fu Changsheng felt that it was almost time, so he said to the two comrades guarding the gate: "Open the door and let them out..."
"No, I won't leave."
A beautiful girl suddenly stepped out of the group and shouted in Chinese, "I can't leave my teacher, especially since he's been injured by you."
The pig-headed man was stunned and asked, "Miss, you are..."
The beautiful girl mustered up her courage and said, "I am Lin Huiyin, and Mr. Hongjian is my teacher."
Fu Changsheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, then you can stay..."
"I want to stay too!"
Another beautiful woman… not as beautiful as the one before, but still a beauty, left the crowd and said, "I'm a reporter. I want to stay and interview you!"
"And..." She pointed at Louis Baker, who was not allowed to leave, "My fiancé is still here."
As soon as these words were spoken, most of the people present showed touched expressions, and their eyes looking at "His Holiness the Pope" were full of envy.
Mr. Baker was naturally very moved and immediately shouted, "Emma, leave me alone and go away."
"No, I want to stay!"
"No, you have to leave!"
"No, I want to stay..."
Louis was so moved that he choked up. At this moment, he could only say three words, "I LOVE YOU!"
“I LOVE YOU, TOO.”
It would be hard for "Her Excellency the High Priestess" and "His Majesty the Divine Emperor" not to become famous now.
"Alright, alright, alright, you two..." The pig-headed man was actually still single, so he didn't understand romance very well.
He was so disgusted by this eight o'clock drama romance that he could only wave his hand and say, "Alright. You can stay, too."
Fu Changsheng turned to the departing team again and asked, "Who among you wants to stay?"
"I!"
This time, Isoroku Yamamoto stood up and spoke.
"Men are not allowed." Fu Changsheng rejected him outright, "Open the door and let them go!"
"This smell... is it ether?"
"FXCK!"
Our Master Yuan walked up angrily, pulled off his mask, grabbed the officer by the collar and yelled, "Who the hell told you to use ether?!"
"What's the matter with you IPA (Irish Republican Army)? What should we do if you accidentally kill them?"
"Mr. Yuan, calm down." The IPA intelligence member scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I'm so sorry, we can't find any other anesthetics right now."
Then he said in a tone of great admiration: "Mr. Yuan, I didn't expect you to actually get them out."
"We Seris people always keep our word." Yuan Yan, whose expression had calmed down a little, suddenly urged, "Stop talking nonsense and let's go."
"OK!"
The bearded man quickly took off his police uniform, then tore off the police badge on the carriage with a "swish", rolled it up and threw it all into the carriage. Then he climbed onto the driver's seat.
At the same time, Master Yuan also got on the carriage.
He turned around, holding the door frame with one hand, and made an "OK" gesture to Chen Danning at the back door with the other hand. The latter also waved back at him and locked the back door of the embassy.
"Hello, Dr. Yuan."
"Hello, Mr. Townsend."
"Dr. Yuan, please call me Ganon. I really admire you!"
That’s right, Master Yuan had contacted the Irish Republican Army before to pick up himself and the two crown princes, and then take all three of them to Ireland.
"Ganon, this is nothing. By the way, where are we going now?"
"Dr. Yuan, let's go to the train station. The brothers there will help us catch the fastest train..."
"Woooa ...
Just as he was chatting with the man in the baseball cap, he heard sirens outside.
The expressions of the two men changed at the same time. The IPA boss immediately picked up a Chicago typewriter, and Comrade Tai Sui also immediately...
Of course, he immediately fell to the ground, lay beside the two crown princes, closed his eyes and began to pretend to be dead.
Do you understand? This way, even if he is stopped by the police, he can say that he is an innocent victim.
"Woooa ...
“Oh…”
"Woooa ...
"drive!"
The carriage passed by a police car with sirens blaring, still heading towards the train station...
This was later recognized as the second serious mistake made by the London police.
They did not immediately control traffic in London, making it easy for the terrorists to transfer the two Crown Princes out of London.
The two people in the car finally breathed a sigh of relief. Townsend put down his gun, and Yuan Yan quickly got up.
Our Master Yuan didn't seem embarrassed at all and asked naturally, "Ganon, do you have any wine?"
"Of course, Dr. Yuan." Mr. Townsend didn't mind his behavior at all, and said respectfully.
He pulled a portable metal hip flask from his inside suit pocket and handed it over.
"Boom, boom, boom."
Yuan Yan didn't mind the dirtiness and took three big gulps directly from the bottle.
"ha……"
"Operation Chicken"... No, it's "Operation Tai Sui", the most difficult first stage has finally been completed.
He sighed with satisfaction, leaned back casually on the carriage, and hummed the famous ditty with a melodious tune and simple lyrics:
"I'm lucky today. I caught two chickens alive..."
"Pika Pika."
"Master Ball, stop talking nonsense. Now, draw a modern poem for me..."
"Ding ding ding, congratulations to the host for winning 'Old Wolf, I'll Treat You to Chicken'..."
"I'm lucky today. I caught two chickens alive..."
"Hurry up and go to Dublin and invite everyone to watch the movie..."
"The movie is really good, I guarantee everyone will be satisfied..."
“Ding, ding, ding… ding, ding, ding.”
The London landmark not far away, Big Ben, rang nine times.
9:00 PM Greenwich Mean Time.
Our Master Yuan has calmed down, and the whole world is about to boil because of him!
