2107 Insult to the British Empire

Everyone was panicked when they heard this. Powell stretched out his hands and pressed down, made a calm gesture for everyone, and then said: "Everyone, please don't be confused. Listen to me, although the Chinese are here, we in the UK are still here after all." We haven't started a war with China yet, they can't hurt us, everyone can destroy the documents at ease, and the Chinese will be dealt with by me."

Powell took a deep breath, walked a few steps outside the embassy, ​​and saw that the outside was full of airborne combat vehicles, with their muzzles pointing at the embassy in unison. Beside the airborne combat vehicles, many infantrymen raised their guns and pointed their muzzles at the embassy. embassy.

Powell walked to the gate of the embassy, ​​walked up to the muzzle of an airborne combat vehicle, and said loudly: "This is the British embassy, ​​what do you want to do?"

The Chinese paratroopers gave him a blank look, but ignored him. Powell made fun of him, his face flushed with anger, and he said angrily, "Which of you is an officer?"

At this time, a fat man with a big belly came out and said to Powell: "I brought them here, just tell me what you have to say."

Powell immediately recognized the fat man as Kemp, the captain of the Palace Guard. Powell was taken aback for a moment and asked, "Kamp, what are you bringing the Chinese to us for?"

Kemp sneered and said, "What else can you do? Of course, I am instructing you to hand over Buska, the traitor in Finland."

Powell shook his head and said, "Busca is not with me."

Kemp laughed and said, "Don't be kidding, our people have seen Busca with your people, so hurry up and hand him over."

Powell frowned, thinking to himself, should I hand over Busca?It may be useful to keep him, and this is the British embassy. If I let them take my people away from the embassy, ​​what face will I have?

So Powell made up his mind not to let Kemp take Busca away. He said proudly: "Even if he is with us, you can't take him away. The embassy enjoys diplomatic immunity. You have no right to take people away from the embassy." Walk!"

Kemp thought about it, and felt that what Powell said was very reasonable. He yelled twice and didn't know what to say. Powell laughed secretly in his heart. This Kemp with a fat brain and an empty stomach is easy to deal with. If Lin Yuan also How nice it would be to be like him!

Seeing that Kemp was speechless, Powell struck while the iron was hot and said, "You should go back quickly. According to international law, you cannot enter foreign embassies."

Kemp said "Oh" and turned his head to leave. At this moment, he heard a cheerful voice behind him: "Mr. Kemp, where are you going?"

Kemp turned his head and glanced at the man behind him, and saw that he was wearing the camouflage uniform of the paratroopers, with no epaulets on his shoulders, no seniority badge on his chest, and he couldn't see his military rank or seniority, but he saw this man walking over as if no one else was around, Then he knew that this person had extraordinary background.

The man walked up to Kemp, patted Kemp, made Kemp turn his head to look at Powell, then walked up to Powell, said with a smile: "Dear Mr. Powell, what did you just say about international law, may I ask if international law is useful? "

Powell looked at this person for a while, and asked coldly: "Who are you?"

The man smiled and said, "It doesn't matter who I am, I just want to ask you, is international law useful?"

Powell frowned and said angrily: "Of course it is useful. International law is the yardstick for all countries to communicate. Without international law, there will be chaos in the world!"

The man grinned and said, "Dear Mr. Powell, what do you mean, all countries in the world should abide by international law?"

Powell nodded and said, "Of course!"

The man smiled and asked: "Then, in 1840, you British attacked us and forced us to sign a treaty and cede Hong Kong Island. Is this a practice that complies with international law?"

Powell argued: "It was your Qing Empire that burned our opium, and we punished the Qing government to maintain the sacred free trade."

The man smiled slightly and said, "If free trade is sacred, why don't you open your market to China now? Why do you ban all Chinese goods from circulating in the UK?"

Powell was speechless for a moment, and the man continued: "Now China is strong, so you don't dare to talk about free trade anymore, right?"

Powell couldn't help but get angry with the person in front of him, and scolded: "Who the hell are you? What do you want to do with these words? I'm sorry, I still have things to do, let's go first."

After Powell said this, he turned around and walked into the house. The man stretched out his hand to hold him, and then asked: "You can't explain what happened in 1840, but can you explain what happened in 1860? Why did you attack China? Burn down the Old Summer Palace?"

Powell said angrily: "Isn't it because you created the Yarrow incident and insulted Britain!"

The Yarrow incident was the fuse of the second Opium War. The Chinese Guangdong Navy boarded the Yarrow because there were pirates on board and arrested several Chinese sailors who were suspected of pirates, but the British insisted that the Yarrow was The British brazenly provoked the war.

The man was not angry either, he laughed and said, "We have forced your ship to stop many times with the reason of 'there are pirates on your ship'. Why don't you dare start a war now?"

The Chinese navy has indeed used this reason to force foreign ships to stop countless times, especially the British ones, which made the British feel extremely humiliated. Powell was furious when he heard this, and just about to explode, he thought: "Who the hell is this guy? What he said seems to have no clear purpose, just to make me angry, what is he going to do? I'd better ignore him!"

Powell thought of this and wanted to shake off the man's hand, but he didn't expect that the man's hand was so strong that he couldn't shake it off several times. Powell glared at him and angrily said, "Let go quickly, do you hear me? You are insulting our British Empire!"

The man sneered and said: "I am insulting your British Empire! What can you do to me? You incited Finnish students, first detained our mission members, then stormed our mission's residence, and put our Chinese flag in public Burning, isn’t this an insult to our People’s Republic of China? Are you only allowed to insult us, and we are not allowed to insult you?”

After the man finished speaking, he exerted a sudden force on his hand. His big hand was like a pair of iron clamps, and he tightly grasped Powell's wrist. Powell screamed like a pig, struggling to say: "Those are all Finnish students did it, go find Finnish students!"

The man said, "We won't take it lightly on Finnish students!"
