Red Alert 1895

The British consul was also sent away soon, and Wang Guorui didn't give him any promise, anyway, he didn't promise to release the British who killed the traffic policeman, and after the British consul left, he was full of thoughts. And when he left, he saw more and more Chinese people came to petition outside the Governor's Mansion, hoping to strictly deal with this murderous British, and this made the British consul feel trembling in his heart. If the Chinese are awakened by this, then the British will be in trouble. He returned to the consulate, and the staff around him also wanted to ask if they could complete the task. But the answer is no, the British consul has nothing to do.

"Consul, it's not good. There are a large number of Chinese coming outside. They seem to want to attack our consulate area!" Someone shouted immediately.

Soon, a large number of people from outside came to the consulate area. They held up banners outside demanding that the perpetrators be severely punished, and then they came to demand that the consuls of various countries began to discuss. However, soon someone came to report again.

"Mr. Consuls, someone outside started storming the consulate area, yelling to kill us foreigners!" someone shouted.

"What? Kill us all? Let Wang Guorui send troops to protect us!" the British consul shouted.

Soon, the nearby police and army also came to protect the staff of these consulates, and then they temporarily detained those people who were too excited to calm them down. As for why the staff of these consulates should be protected, it is actually because they are all diplomats. According to the default rules of various countries, diplomats cannot be killed casually. In ancient China, there was also the rule that the two armies should not be beheaded in battle, and this rule is common to all countries. Not to mention that they haven't started the war yet, even after the war, it is impossible to kill them, the diplomats of the consulate. Once they die, the consequences will be very serious, and the outbreak of war is inevitable.

At the time of the Boxer Rebellion. Countries also have different opinions on whether to send troops to China, but once their embassies are surrounded by Boxer mobs, the life and death of diplomats is uncertain. That's why they unanimously agreed to send troops. In fact, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces after the Boxer Incident, in fact, was partly due to the death of Man Qing himself. Originally, only Japan was really resolutely famous, and the attitudes of other countries were different, but the Manchu Qing actually wanted to attack diplomats, which really forced everyone to send troops.

So diplomats cannot kill, this is an iron law, so Wang Guorui heard that someone wanted to hurt a diplomat, so he naturally sent someone to protect him. After all, neither Taiwan nor China has personnel stationed abroad, if they all follow suit. To harm Taiwan's overseas personnel is really not worth the candle. Therefore, this diplomat cannot be allowed to be harmed by everyone, and the necessary protection should be given.

"Really, we are actually asked to protect these foreign devils. These foreign devils have harmed so many of us, shouldn't they deserve to die? Moreover, this time he still killed our traffic policeman. That is our policeman!" said the policeman.

These policemen also felt a little bit sad. After all, the one who was killed was a traffic policeman, who was of the same profession as himself. So of course they feel very sad. Therefore, in this incident, the policemen are the ones who pay the most attention to this incident.

And another officer immediately said: "Haha. Actually, it's nothing. You should know next time that we have a lot of ways. Although we can't kill the people in the consulate, we can let him suffer. That's okay. We just need to contact the waterworks and the power plant, and we'll be fine."

"You mean..." the officer asked.

And the officer smiled without saying a word.

Soon, someone in the consulate immediately notified.

"My consuls, our tap water has been cut off and we can no longer use it," someone said.

And the Russian consul immediately said angrily; "What's going on? Why is the tap water cut off at this time?"

And another person immediately said, "Mister Consuls, our electricity is also out. Our electrical appliances are also out of use."

"What? The electricity is also off?" the French consul said angrily.

Soon, all kinds of electrical appliances in the consulate stopped working. And everyone is in a state of water shortage. The consulate is stationed in a foreign country, but things like water and electricity have to be provided by foreign countries, but now the water and electricity are cut off, which makes everyone feel very depressed. And if they don't have water and electricity, their lives will really be unsustainable. However, there was no water stored in the consulate before. After all, tap water is very convenient. Why should more water be stored? But now the reality tells them that if they don't store water, maybe they will be cheated by others.

Now the water and electricity are cut off in the consulate area, which makes them feel unable to live.

"I want to send a telegram to London to sue them! How dare we use such despicable means to deal with our diplomats!" the British consul said angrily.

"Your Excellency the Consul, since we have been cut off from the electricity, there is no way to send a telegram." Someone immediately reminded me.

The British consul is now as anxious as ants on a hot pot, because there is no water and no electricity here. Without water, none of us can survive. But there is no electricity, so naturally it is impossible to send a telegram to China, requesting instructions from China. Although Wang Guorui did not directly kill and persecute these foreign consuls, he cut off water and electricity to persecute those foreigners. So now they all feel that Wang Guorui is despicable and shameless, actually using this method to force diplomats. However, afterward, everyone also started to express their anger, denouncing Wang Guorui's behavior.

"We can't give in like this. We have to fight to the end with these despicable and shameless guys. It is really despicable and shameless for these shameless guys to treat our diplomats like this. Therefore, we must fight to the end to maintain the national prestige of our country Immediately order everyone to go outside to fetch water, I don't believe we will still be short of water." The British consul said.

Soon, the foreign consuls also sent people to fetch water, hoping to survive by fetching water, but they were stopped by the military police.

"For your safety, please go back. If you leave the consulate area, then we will not be responsible for protecting you. At that time, we will not be able to guarantee your safety," the officer said.

"What? We're just going to fetch water," said the diplomat.

But the police officer immediately said: "Our military and police are not strong enough to protect you personally, so you can only be safe if you stay in this consulate area."

"Excuse, excuse!" the diplomat cursed.

Obviously this is completely an excuse, because it is impossible to protect, the military and police are insufficient, and the hundreds of thousands of troops on Taiwan Island cannot protect everyone? They didn't want them to fetch water at all, so they just found an excuse on purpose. And these foreign diplomats wanted to go out very much, but when they saw the demonstrators who were staring at them, they all took a deep breath and chose to back down. Because if he went out and was beaten to death, it would really be worth the candle. It's not worth the risk of being beaten to death for a bucket of water. Taiwan's military and police refused to protect them from fetching water, which made it impossible for them to fetch water. If there is no protection from the military and police, they are all people who can be killed casually. I am afraid that it will be really troublesome at that time.

"Damn it, those guys just want us to compromise!" the British consul said angrily.

Soon, not long after, the consulates of various countries also suffered from water and power cuts. Their water is getting less and less, and it will obviously be consumed in a short time. And there are so many people in their consulate area, it's impossible to accumulate much water resources. Especially when they saw that the water in the water tank had bottomed out quickly, they were silent in their hearts.

"Mr. Consul, you should promise to the Taiwanese!" "Yes! Mr. Consul, we are all thirsty to death, we really can't take it anymore." "Mr. Consul, let's promise the Chinese, we can't take it anymore!"

Soon ~www.readwn.com~ those subordinates also hoped that the British consul would take the initiative to agree to Taiwan's conditions. Anyway, all kinds of customs supervision powers and all kinds of economic powers already exist in name only in Taiwan, so how can the extraterritorial power of consular jurisdiction be? So everyone also hopes that the consul can agree to this condition. After all, only by agreeing to oneself can the water and electricity be reconnected.

"Mr. Consul, I think the so-called consular jurisdiction is only based on the absolute strength of the country. Although our country is still stronger than Taiwan, we can't do whatever we want with Taiwan." .And Taiwan is not a weak and incompetent Chinese central government. If we continue to fight like this, we will definitely face huge losses. Therefore, we should agree, so that we can still guarantee our survival. If we die by then, the consul If the refereeing power is still lost, then we really still lose more than we gain.”

But the British consul was helpless, then left the consulate area, and said to the people outside: "We agree that the Chinese government should try the British who killed the traffic policeman, but we in the UK must have the right to hire a lawyer for him, and we also have our foreign consuls. The right to come and watch, two rights that we in the UK will not give up."

After hearing this, some people immediately shouted: "We have won!"

"We won, we won"...(to be continued)
