Chapter 577 Ceremony
Chapter 577 Ceremony
The common people also observed this scene. In the past, if something happened in the French Concession, these people would immediately open fire, but when facing people from the Pujiang Police Station, they would be very restrained. At least in the past six months, no one has heard of any shooting incidents.
The common people all thought that the people in the French Concession Police Station had become soft, but in fact, they were still very tough when facing other people. It was just that when facing Li Shaoyi's people, they had received a death order from above that they would take full responsibility for the escalation of the incident caused by the shooting.
To put it in a way that everyone understands, if you are beaten to death by people from the Pujiang Police Department after the shooting escalates the incident, then you will have to bear the consequences yourself. Don't expect the French Concession Police Station to seek justice for you.
The work is so bad that no one cares. The patrolmen below are all born by their parents. Who would be so bored as to work for you? You should use your own head to do it.
So when these people saw the people from the Pujiang Police Station, most of them would choose to give in. Even if a few of them did not give in, they would inform them in advance and say, "We just need to put on a show so that I can explain to my superiors that I also resisted and you can do whatever you want."
Just like the patrolmen on duty on this side of the border, they had already informed the Pujiang Police Station through other channels that in addition to more than 30 Chinese patrolmen, there were only two foreign captains. When you rush over later, disarm us first, and you can do whatever you want to these two foreign captains.
So when the tanks rushed the checkpoint, the more than 30 Chinese patrolmen were not distributed in various key locations. Instead, they were all behind some sacks on the left. Two policemen from the Pujiang Police Station disarmed them all with submachine guns.
As for the two foreign captains, they kept cursing, so the only thing we could do was slap them on the mouth with the soles of our shoes to teach them a lesson.
The tanks and armored vehicles that rushed in rampaged all the way to the headquarters of the French Concession Police Station.
Mr. Du had already investigated and found out that the police officers who beat people yesterday were all gathered at the police station headquarters. They were also afraid that the Pujiang Police Station would play tricks on them. What if they got arrested after returning home? So they were all concentrated in this place.
That's even better, so we don't have to arrest people everywhere. Right now, outside the French Concession Police Headquarters, more than 600 colleagues from the Pujiang Police Station have surrounded the place.
Although there were still hundreds of policemen in the police station headquarters, with weapons in their hands, their hands were shaking with nervousness.
Some people unconsciously looked at the second floor, where the policemen who beat people were. Should they hand these people over? If they were handed over, would the Pujiang Police Station be withdrawn?
Wu Zhenkui clearly could have gone in and arrested them, but he chose not to. Rushing in would have caused us harm, and things would have been difficult to control after the shooting. And thirdly, it would have shown the people of Pujiang that if someone committed a crime, hiding in the police headquarters wouldn't do them any harm. I can surround this place with just one word. If you don't hand them over, I'll take over my job here.
People from other countries were also in an uproar. Although the criticism was not directed at them, if they committed a crime one day, would the people from the Pujiang Police Department do the same?
So they called their own consuls, hoping that they would unite and intervene in this matter, otherwise Pujiang would no longer be their safe haven in the future.
The consuls of various countries have already negotiated with Li Shaoyi, and they also know that Li Shaoyi's actions this time are not directed at them. In addition, each country has its own policies and major policies. Since Li Shaoyi is fighting the Russians in the north, such a small matter as the French Concession will not be able to affect Li Shaoyi.
So when they answered the phone, the consuls from various countries were very resolute in their attitudes, sharing the same hatred with everyone and expressing that they would negotiate with Li Shaoyi immediately. However, after hanging up the phone, they very leisurely picked up the newspaper next to them, which was a gossip tabloid.
Do you think politics is that simple? Although you are all excellent taxpayers in various countries, political transactions have always been dirty. According to the thinking of the leaders of various countries, the French Concession is indeed important, but it seems that even if it is given to Li Shaoyi to fight against the Russians, it will not affect the war in the north.
When Li Shaoyi's warships entered the Huangpu River, the cruisers and destroyers sounded their horns at the same time, announcing to the people on both sides of the Huangpu River that our Chinese warships were once again sailing on our own Yangtze River.
Hundreds of thousands of people gathered from both sides of the Taiwan Strait, waving national flags and setting off firecrackers, and many people couldn't stop crying.
Li Shaoyi also ordered the warships to fire salutes in response to the people's welcome. However, in some buildings along the river, many foreigners were standing by the windows with gloomy faces.
No matter what nationality he is, this is the situation they least want to see. For decades, foreigners have had the final say here because of their strong ships and powerful guns. But now Li Shaoyi is coming in a warship, which means that the right to speak on both sides of the Huangpu River is likely to undergo major changes.
The Central Navy’s base in Huajie also held a large-scale welcoming event. Hundreds of sailors stood in an orderly manner on the river bank and fired guns to welcome them!
Although the Central Navy has a base in Pujiang, most of the warships docked here are small boats of dozens of tons. They cannot match the foreign warships in terms of speed or power.
Therefore, for a long time, the Central Navy did not have much influence in Pujiang, and some people even called it a country with people but no ships.
This time, Li Shaoyi has agreed to a light cruiser and two to three destroyers, which will be stationed in Pujiang and will be under the command of the Central Navy.
Of course, this is just a polite remark. Commander-in-Chief Chen has been in the officialdom for so many years. Although he is a bit straightforward, he also knows that Li Shaoyi is giving him face. Every time before we issue an order, we will inform Li Shaoyi in advance. This is also mutual flexibility and respect.
After Commander-in-Chief Chen returned, the Central Navy's dock had been renovated. It has not been completed yet and only has temporary berths. This is considered fast among the Central Navy.
For some other projects, it would take nearly half a year from project initiation to the start of construction. It is understandable why they are not strong enough. It is because various actions are too slow. Of course, this is only one of the reasons.
When the navy ship was about to dock, there was another flight show in the sky. A large formation of thirty planes passed over the warship with colorful smoke trails...
