Red Alert 1895 Chapter 121

"Boss Li Hongzhang, and Li Jingfang, what do you think I should do with you? You use my family as a threat, and then force me to agree to your conditions, and then give up the territory of Taiwan, give up the military power in your hands, you How should I deal with you?" Wang Guorui asked with a smile.

And Li Hongzhang immediately asked: "How do you want to deal with me? I have nothing to deal with. If you want to do something to me, then please do it!"

But Li Jingfang was not as calm as Li Hongzhang, and immediately said angrily: "How dare you do something to me? Your family is still in the hands of the court. If you dare to do anything to me, then I can guarantee that I will lose one of your hairs, and I will kill you." Let you die a direct relative, do you believe it or not?"

Wang Guorui took a sip of tea and said: "According to the information I have received, my family members have been rescued and boarded the boat, and they will arrive in Taiwan in the early hours of tomorrow. Therefore, my family members have already left your family." Control, very safe. Tell me, how should I treat you two despicable, shameless and shameless guys?"

Because Wang Guorui has a red alarm system, he got the news faster than Li Hongzhang and Li Jingfang and his son. Li Hongzhang, Li Jingfang and his son did not receive the news that Wang Guorui's family had been rescued, so they were a little surprised when they heard the news.

But Li Hongzhang sighed, and said helplessly: "Hey, I actually don't agree with the court's use of this method. But since the matter has reached the point it is today, then you can do whatever you want!"

Li Hongzhang was indeed an old man, and after hearing what Wang Guorui said, he knew that the matter was irreversible. The Manchu court no longer had the conditions to blackmail Wang Guorui, and the army could not defeat Wang Guorui, so Wang Guorui did not have to worry about what the Manchu court could do to him. If Wang Guorui declared independence now, no one would be able to stop him, so Li Hongzhang did not expect Wang Guorui to return to the leadership of the central court of the Qing Dynasty.

"Master Li Hongzhang, I still have some respect for you, so I won't do anything to you. Although you are a little late, at least you are working hard for this country. Even if the result is not good, at least you I have also worked hard for this country, and there is hard work without credit. Therefore, I will not do anything to you. However, there is an old saying in our country since ancient times, that is, the father's debt is paid by the son. Although you don't have to accept my punishment, then you Your son must take responsibility for your actions. And this time you threatened me as a family member, and that was your son's mastermind. So if he doesn't take responsibility, who will take it?"

Wang Guorui spoke kindly at first, but then it became more and more cold. This time Man Qing actually wanted to use his family to force him to submit, which of course made Wang Guorui very angry. This time he had to clean up Li Jingfang, otherwise no one would dare to threaten him in the future. So I have to use very harsh methods to deal with this Li Jingfang, otherwise I won't be able to teach others a warning lesson, so I must take responsibility for this.

"Leader Wang, the war between the two countries does not come at the expense of others, not to mention that we are of the same language and the same race, and we are all one family. Why is this necessary? I just hope that you can lightly punish my son, and don't take their lives Although he is not my own son, he is still my nephew and my adopted son for many years. He has been adopted to me and is considered my eldest son. I hope that the leader of the king will not kill my son for my sake. .” Li Hongzhang said.

Li Hongzhang still hoped to use his "face" in exchange for his son's immortality, and even said that he hoped that Wang Guorui would not kill his son.

"Don't worry, I won't kill him! After all, he was sent by the imperial court. If I kill him, will he still dare to associate with us? However, the death penalty can be avoided and the living penalty cannot be escaped. Someone, pull this Li Jingfang down , cut off his arm!" Wang Guorui said.

And Li Jingfang heard this. Suddenly his face turned pale. Although Wang Guorui didn't cut off his head, he was about to cut off one of his arms, which was tantamount to cutting off his future completely. Although it is said that people with disabilities cannot be discriminated against, as a diplomat, Li Jingfang represents the image of a country. If a disabled person is allowed to be a diplomat, it will damage the image of our country! And even China has rarely chosen disabled people as officials since ancient times. After all, the image of the disabled is not good. However, military officers are excluded. In some cases, disabled people were even promoted as military officers, which was regarded as encouraging the soldiers to fight the enemy bravely, regardless of their own lives.

But civil servants are different. Civil servants have never chosen people with disabilities, especially diplomats. As a diplomat, Li Jingfang would have no future if he had obvious disabilities. Now Wang Guorui chopped off one of his arms, which not only made him a disabled person, but also cut off his future prospects. This can prevent him from turning pale. After all, a normal person with a healthy body is not suitable. Who would like to be a disabled person!

"Father, save me, save me!" Li Jingfang shouted.

Li Hongzhang said: "Leader Wang, can't we change to another one?"

"No, I have to let others see a typical example. Otherwise, no one dares to use my family to threaten me. I just want to tell everyone that whoever dares to threaten me will have very miserable consequences!" Wang Guorui said.

And Li Hongzhang couldn't help sighing when he saw Wang Guorui's attitude. Wang Guorui is now a full-fledged overlord. What he advocates is overbearing, not some kingly way. In this troubled world, people like Wang Guorui can only achieve great things if they are ruthless. Li Hongzhang no longer expected his son to be healthy, so he could only bow his head silently. Now that Wang Guorui is powerful, what can Li Hongzhang say? After decades of ups and downs, Li Hongzhang naturally knew the reason to bow to the strong. Now that the Huai Army is gone, the Beiyang Navy is gone, and his official position is gone, how can he threaten Wang Guorui? Although Li Hongzhang had many former students and former officials, those people were all in the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty. Although Wang Guorui is the magistrate of the Qing Dynasty in name, he is almost independent, and those former students and officials in Li Hongzhang's officialdom cannot threaten him. Therefore, since it is all useless work, it is better not to speak.

"Pull Li Jingfang down and cut off his right arm!" Wang Guorui said.

"No, I have diplomatic immunity!" Li Jingfang shouted.

"Wait!" Wang Guorui called out.

Wang Guorui asked with interest: "What did you say, you have diplomatic immunity?"

"Yes, I have diplomatic immunity, you can't cut off my arm, I have diplomatic immunity!" Li Jingfang shouted.

The so-called diplomatic immunity, which is an internationally accepted rule, has various immunity for diplomats. One of them is that the country where the criminal offense is located cannot be investigated, but can only be deported. So Li Jingfang actually said that he wanted to use diplomatic immunity as a condition, hoping that he could avoid having his arm chopped off.

"Are you sure you want to use diplomatic immunity? Are you sure you have diplomatic immunity?" Wang Guorui asked with interest.

"Yes, I'm going to use... Ah, father, why did you hit me?" Li Jingfang said.

Li Jingfang was about to say something, but was immediately slapped by Li Hongzhang. Obviously Li Hongzhang was very angry.

And Wang Guorui looked at Li Hongzhang, and immediately asked: "Master Li, do you admit that you have diplomatic immunity? If you admit that you have diplomatic immunity, then I don't have to cut off Mr. Ling's arm. If you don't recognize us If you have diplomatic immunity, then I will cut off Young Master Ling's arm, and from now on in my territory, people from the Qing court will not have diplomatic immunity. It depends on how you choose, Mr. Li."

Li Hongzhang thought for a while, and immediately said: "Please cut it off!"

"Father, what kind of riddles are you playing? My arm is about to be cut off!" Li Jingfang shouted.

But as Li Jingfang was pulled out, he immediately let out a scream, apparently his arm was chopped off. But Li Hongzhang was heartbroken, but he could only endure it.

After his son's arm was cut off, Li Hongzhang still gritted his teeth and said: "Leader Wang, you also cut off my son's arm. You should be satisfied, right? Is what you said just now true? From now on, can Taiwan not independent country?"

In fact, Wang Guorui and Li Hongzhang's charades just now~www.mtlnovel.com~ are actually very simple. The so-called diplomatic immunity is the relationship between diplomats in the relationship between countries, not the relationship within the same country. In other words, if Li Jingfang enjoyed the so-called diplomatic immunity just now, it means that Li Hongzhang and the others came to negotiate with Taiwan as envoys of the country, and they also enjoyed diplomatic immunity.

But once Li Hongzhang and the others enjoy diplomatic immunity, it means that Taiwan and the mainland are equal to two countries. So Wang Guorui asked Li Hongzhang whether he wanted to enjoy this right of diplomatic immunity. If Li Hongzhang enjoyed this right, it meant that Li Hongzhang recognized Taiwan as an independent country. But if you don't enjoy it, it means that Wang Guorui still admits that he is Chinese and has no intention of splitting the country.

Therefore, in exchange for Wang Guorui's promise not to split the country, Li Hongzhang could only sacrifice one of his son's arms. No matter how painful his heart was, Li Hongzhang had to endure it. After all, if he could exchange his son's arm for Wang Guorui's promise not to be independent, that would be the most important thing. And Wang Guorui chopped off Li Jingfang's arm, which means that Wang Guorui did not let Taiwan stand on its own.

Therefore, this arm of Li Jingfang, in addition to Wang Guorui's warning to others, also represented Wang Guorui's promise to Li Hongzhang and even the Qing court that he would not establish a country on his own. xh118
