Chapter 966 The Conspiracy
"A bunch of ignorant country bumpkins!"
"Go away!"
"We deliver goods to your Xia country to boost your Xia country's economy."
"You still dare to stop me?"
"If you don't leave, I'll make sure you're in big trouble!"
The foreign businessman's attitude remained bad and he continued to move forward without any pause.
The workers were even more angry at this point, and for a moment, they stopped the foreign businessmen.
"Damn it!"
"It delayed my important matter."
"You're dead!"
"Hit me!"
The foreign businessman waved his hand.
Then a dozen strong thugs came out from behind, rushed forward and started beating him up.
The workers were indeed caught off guard at first.
But soon, the workers reacted and immediately punched the thugs in the body and face with their angry fists.
The workers at the docks have real muscles on their bodies.
Coupled with the fact that their wages were withheld, the fight naturally became more intense.
For a while.
These thugs were defeated one after another.
The workers began to look at the two foreign businessmen.
One of the two foreign businessmen was fat and the other was thin.
At this moment, the two men faced the workers who were being escorted over, and each of them had an angry look on their faces.
Still shouting, "Don't come over here."
The workers' demands are simple.
Ask for wages.
Even this request is not met.
As the workers approached...
boom!
bang bang bang...
The foreign businessman suddenly took out a revolver and fired bullets one after another.
The workers fell to the ground one after another.
Blood flowed and drifted.
Soon, the dock was placed under martial law.
Because the situation is serious.
The Liancheng garrison reported the news directly to the New 1st Division Command.
……
"commander."
"The matter has been investigated clearly."
"The cause was that the two Mei merchants were unwilling to pay the porters' wages."
"When the workers went to ask for their money, the businessman ordered his thugs to beat them up."
"The workers, fed up with the situation, chose to surround the merchants."
"This angered the businessmen, who then opened fire."
Chang Naichao seemed very angry when he said this.
"With a gun?"
"No checks were done at the dock?"
"How did you get the gun in here?"
Lin Xu said with an ugly expression.
"This one……"
"commander."
"We currently don't have a proper security force in Liancheng, so the corresponding verification is... much more lax."
"This is my fault."
Chang Naichao quickly confessed his guilt.
“How many workers died?”
Lin Xu took a deep breath and said.
"Five."
"Two others were hit but survived."
"so much?"
Lin Xu frowned and looked very unhappy.
"Execute those two Mei merchants on the spot."
"Is there any doubt about this matter?"
Lin Xu frowned.
kill people.
Still want to live?
What's the point?
"commander."
"This... after all, involves foreign nations..."
"So we still have to think about it."
"If it causes an international dispute..."
"There is also an official Mei Kingdom office in Liancheng."
"Usually when something like this happens, the person is transferred directly to the local foreign office or directly to the embassy."
Chang Naichao reminded.
"What happened on our land of Summer."
"We have to follow the rules of our Xia country."
"The rule in our Xia country is that whoever kills must pay with his life!"
"Notify Liancheng and kill them immediately."
"Do not……"
"We should arrange to go to Caishikou."
"Let the people see it."
"No need to waste bullets."
"Just find two executioners and chop off their heads."
Lin Xu said directly. After Lin Xu finished speaking.
Chang Naichao on the side looked hesitant.
"Nai Chao."
"What's wrong with you?"
"This is not like your temperament."
Lin Xu glanced at Chang Naichao and felt a little strange.
"commander."
"I think there's something suspicious about this."
"Although merchants from the Mei Kingdom are known to be domineering, they normally don't withhold wages."
"What's more, the money being withheld is from dock workers."
"These foreign merchants are not fools. If they offend the dock workers, will their goods be able to be unloaded normally in the future?"
"Refuse to pay wages."
“It’s essentially looking for trouble.”
"commander……"
"Didn't you notice anything?"
"And he's a businessman from the Mei Kingdom..."
Chang Naichao took a deep breath, his eyes wandering.
Lin Xu pondered in silence.
"You mean, they did it on purpose?"
"Did you do this on purpose?"
"Ha ha……"
"That's interesting."
"Intentionally picking fights, intentionally killing people, and then..."
"Are you doing something on purpose?"
"They should be coming for that batch of arms."
"The Mei people didn't find any weapons or warships from the devils."
"So now the focus is on us."
"So, these two Mei merchants... are like two sharp knives."
"It was essentially shoved in our way."
Lin Xu said this, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
"Great advice, Commander!"
"So Commander."
"What if we just kill these two businessmen now?"
"I'm afraid those guys will attack us directly."
"By then..."
"There's also the possibility of sending warships."
"commander."
"The Mei Kingdom's navy is even stronger than the Japs'."
"We are about to start this decisive battle with the devils."
"At this critical moment."
"We can't be careless."
"anyway."
"It is never wrong to proceed with caution."
"If those Mei people catch us, they will start a war against us."
"We are fighting on two fronts, and the pressure is too great."
"commander."
Chang Naichao immediately explained the interests involved.
He seemed extremely cautious in his words.
For now, it is not advisable to be careless.
After all, one move affects the whole body.
If things go wrong, there will really be a war.
Especially at this time, if a fight really breaks out...what will happen?
These things... must always be kept in mind.
"So Naichao, what you mean is... a big thing becomes a small thing, a small thing becomes nothing?"
"Release those two Mei merchants?"
Lin Xu looked up and said.
"Forehead……"
"commander."
"I think he can be detained temporarily."
"We'll deal with it after the decisive battle with the devils is over."
"So as not to anger the Mei Kingdom at this time."
"It would be bad if they wanted to interfere in this war at that time."
"After all, we are in a critical period of fighting the devils..."
"We can't provoke the sensitive nerves of the Mei people now."
Chang Naichao licked his lips and wanted to say something else, but when he saw Lin Xu's silent expression, he sighed inwardly...
He knew that his commander had already made up his mind.
"commander……"
"Has the decision been made?"
"Hey……"
"commander……"
Chang Naichao wanted to say something but stopped himself.
Lin Xu reached out and patted Chang Naichao on the shoulder.
