    The British people who overreacted were ridiculed by their colleagues, but they had nothing to do with the young marshal, a hero who did not follow common sense: I am on my own territory, and I can't bring my own soldiers over to play, right?  Look how scared you are!

    But on the other hand, the British are certainly not as arrogant as they appear, otherwise the reputation of the empire on which the sun never sets would not make them so arrogant.

    As the heavily armed People's Army marched majestically through Pudong, and the row of five-kilometer-long cannons moved, the noise in the Shanghai market became much quieter.  You have warships, we have cannons, we are facing each other, who is afraid of whom?  Who is the young marshal?  That is the character who will beat up all tigers at home and abroad who dare to block the way!

    ¡°Well, it¡¯s true.  In the process of the rise of the Feng Clan, they fought against the Russians (not the Soviet Union), the Japanese, the Anhui Clique, the Zhili Clique, Sun Dapao, the National Army, various warlords, and not long ago the British They did this when they were weak, but now  Even more amazing.

    "Ship-based guns are messy, inaccurate, and occupy the waterway."  Land artillery has a great advantage over ships in the Yangtze River environment. Historically, in duels between naval artillery and land artillery, if there are no other factors, the naval artillery must suffer.

    Otherwise, the "Gardev" would not have surrendered quickly even after the captain was killed, because it would be too slow to fight with land artillery in a narrow channel, even if the caliber of the People's Army artillery is much smaller than  It¡ª¡ªAlthough the other party cannot inflict a fatal blow to oneself, the feeling of being covered in wounds is definitely uncomfortable.

    On August 30, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Shanghai held a grand parade to commemorate the "May 30th Massacre". Zhang Hanqing's military uniforms were neatly reviewed on the stage.  He has now been hailed as "China's national hero" and "the backbone of the Chinese nation". He is sought after by countless people and is also the object of many girls' dreams. It is the time when he is in high spirits.

    Facing the countless cheering crowds on both sides of the road, on the one hand, I felt majestic and comforted; on the other hand, I felt the heavy pressure on my shoulders, and I deeply realized the profound meaning of "living high in the temple, worrying about the people".

    I just did a little bit of what I should do as a government leader, and yet I got such strong love from the people.  As a ruler, what reason do we have to violate, deviate from, or deceive such expectations?  Now, it is just a small step towards the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

    Looking at the expectant eyes of the people, he deeply understood the meaning of what a good prime minister of later generations said at a press conference: "No matter whether there is an abyss or a minefield ahead, I will not look back and move forward courageously."

    The people have such trust that it feels like a heavy responsibility is on their shoulders, like a lump in their throats.

    When the parade was halfway through, there was a sudden commotion in front.  It turned out that a Japanese driver drove into the parade without permission, blocked its progress, and resisted the traffic police's intervention arrogantly, causing public outrage among the masses.

    This is a very bad incident. It coincides with "Prince" Zhang's parade. It is a slap in the face for his demonstration!  If you forget it tepidly, half a year of hard work will be ruined!

    Zhang Hanqing decisively ordered: "Detain them before we talk! Regardless of whether the Japanese or the British have violated Chinese laws in China, they can be punished!" In full view of the public, not to mention causing a diplomatic spat between China and Japan, it was immediately  There's no point in starting a war over this!

    To be a human being, one must have backbone!  Xiao Zhang also wants to save face!

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? As soon as Zhang Hanqing decided to arrive, the Japanese quickly kicked him from nowhere. With just one kick, he lay down like a dead pig.

    Before he could struggle, several people rushed out from the crowd like a pack of wolves attacking sheep, and they took care of him in a few seconds.  The Japanese man was still shouting "Bage Yalu", but he was immediately punched so hard that several of his teeth fell out, and the blood mixed with it spilled on the ground.  This kick and punch were so heavy. Under this kind of force retaliation, the Japanese no longer had the arrogance they had before.

    Witnessing the patriotic "feat" of Chinese soldiers, the onlookers cheered and beat drums in unison, giving this epidemic a good start.

    It is understood that this Japanese is the former deputy consul general of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai.  If in the past, a fight between Chinese and Japanese personnel occurred, the Chinese government would definitely apologize.  Once a major incident like this involving diplomats is reported to the press, the Central People's Government will step in to "properly" resolve it.  But when he met Prince Zhang, who was known for his power and scheming, all the rules changed.

    The former deputy consul was detained, and the Japanese government strangely did not make any of the remarks that have always shocked Chinese officials and people, nor did it ask for "immunity" through diplomatic means. Instead, it maintained rare silence. The perpetrator  Also oldHonestly hand over a "letter of apology" to the Chinese personnel.

    The news was published and immediately caused a sensation.  China, the Eastern sleeping lion, has awakened and cannot be bullied.  Shanghai citizens clapped their hands and cheered: "In the past, the Japanese had to cry to the sky when they drove someone to death. Now the Japanese consul has to be punished if he breaks the law. The People's Government is ambitious!"

    The political mobilization reached its climax at a gathering of all walks of life in Shanghai to commemorate the compatriots who died in the "May 30th Massacre".  Zhang Hanqing used an impassioned speech to call on the 3 million people of Shanghai to "withstand the test of the British and Japanese siege and stand up more bravely!"

    After this, there was a new upsurge in the subscription of public bonds. The cotton textile industry alone in the industrial and commercial circles oversubscribed 720,000 bonds, and the application system subscribed for 500,000 bonds.  When the Nanyang Rubber Factory was producing men's shoes, the water tank ran out of water, so the workers carried buckets of water from the well to ensure production.  Due to the lack of electricity, the factory only worked three nights a week. Workers consciously rushed to work, and the output increased by 25% compared to the previous full working hours

    Negotiations are on the table, and games are played outside.  The British saw that they were unable to put economic pressure on the Chinese government. Instead, they seriously damaged their own interests and had their influence in China expelled.  As a last resort, under the mediation of the United States, China and Britain held the fifth negotiation on October 16.

    In fact, for the Sino-British negotiations, the delegation headed by Zhang Hanqing did not ask for many benefits¡ª¡ªunder the overall situation, it is not in China's fundamental interest to offend British and American forces prematurely. Although Zhang Hanqing made a high-profile claim to take back all the concessions, then  It is just a gesture in the current situation where the nationalist movement is booming in the country.

    The reluctance to make a big move on this matter is actually due to Zhang Hanqing's careful consideration: it is impossible to completely take back all the concessions at this stage, because there is a game of national power here.

    For Britain, honorably guaranteeing its interests in China is a major issue that affects its global colonial leadership. It is easy to force British forces out of mainland China, but what is difficult is how to face a comprehensive counterattack by Britain - for a country like Britain  As a big country, it cannot remain indifferent in the face of the domino effect of the possible collapse of its colonial system. In any case, it is bound to fight hard. This is not the situation Zhang Hanqing wants.

    In addition, China is not ready at this stage to resist the inevitable result of Japan taking the opportunity to occupy the power vacuum left by the British - rejecting the wolf with the front foot and facing the tiger with the back foot is not his original intention.

    On the contrary, keeping British power in China has great benefits at this stage: the presence of Britain and the United States in East and South China greatly restricts Japan's direct military power in eastern and southern China. Under the current situation that China's naval power is still very weak,  Objectively, it has temporarily guaranteed the security of most of China's maritime borders and bought time for China's subsequent comprehensive construction.

    In North China, Japan's power is still very small - since Japanese power was forced to withdraw from Jiaodong, only the Tianjin Japanese Concession in North China is still under its control.

    But Zhang Hanqing must also give China at least some dignity on the table: in China, which is poor and weak, nothing can excite the Chinese people more than winning foreign diplomacy.

    Whether the Chinese people can hold their heads high at this negotiation table will also test the prestige of the People's Party and Zhang Hanqing, especially now that the people of the country have the consciousness of national sovereignty and independence, and the abolition of all unequal treaties and concessions.  Clarify perspectives and goals.

    So the best outcome is that the Chinese people get dignity and the British government also gets dignity.

    The so-called "stop when you see good things".

    But just as Zhang Hanqing was trying to end this long and unresolved tug-of-war as quickly as possible with the Chinese government and to a degree he could accept, a plot against him was underway.

    The protagonist of this play is Song Ziwen.

    Being completely refuted in front of the goddess in my mind, what¡¯s even more hateful is that this incident has spread throughout the streets and alleys of Shanghai. I can¡¯t bear this tone no matter what.

    But you have to endure it.  Although the young marshal's private life seems to be disorderly, he is a man who does not stick to trivial matters, and people mostly see his efforts to get justice for the Chinese people who were harmed in the May 30th Incident.  His uncompromising attitude towards the outside world, his "love for the people like his own children" at home, and his methods of stabilizing Shanghai's economy are all inspiring to conscientious Chinese people.

    If Song Ziwen dared to challenge him head on, he would definitely run away in embarrassment in the spit of the whole people.  Even if he is Sun Yat-sen's brother-in-law, the Kuomintang would not dare to risk the world's disapproval at this time.  After all, Chinese people have always made a clear distinction between personal grudges and national justice.

    Is there any way to vent this anger?  Song Ziwen turned his attention to the underworld.  In Shanghai, there is basically no family that does not have some relationship with the underworld.  It's impossible to hang out here without knowing some people.  When the former Sun Yat-sen was under the banner, he had contacts with many gang bosses.

    Among the most powerful eldest brothers in Shanghai, Huang Huangrong, the leader of the "Three Green Gang tycoons", has completely compromised with the People's Party and announced his decision to cooperate with the People's Party to all his subordinates. He is naturally unreliable; Du Yuesheng was killed by Zhang Hanqing  He was so excited by national justice that he didn't know what was going on, and there was no need to expect a heated fight with him. Zhang Xiaolin and Du Yuesheng had a good personal relationship, so they were also excluded.

    The only other person who has some talent is Wang Yaqiao of the Ax Gang, who is brave enough to achieve great things. Song Ziwen contacted him through acquaintances.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)The leader, Huang Huangrong, had completely compromised with the People's Party and announced his decision to cooperate with the People's Party to all his subordinates.
