Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The bronze statue of Napoleon was finally unable to resist the crazy people's attacks, with a loud cracking sound, the statue's leg broke, and with a boom, it crashed onto the ground, causing the dust to fly into the air.

"Long live! "Long live!" The crowd instantly went crazy. Thousands of onlookers rushed up and stomped on the War God's statue with their feet, spitting on it.

The soldiers in the distance turned their heads. They did not dare to look at this scene, and obviously did not dare to stop it!

The destruction of this statue announced the collapse of the spirit pillar of the France. Almost all the small statues in the entire city, whether they were marble or bronze, or were sculptures carved on the walls.

As long as it was a Bonaparte Family, everything would be severely damaged!

Loman's heart was bleeding. These were all treasures of art. They were incalculable treasures. Yet they were destroyed just like that? It did not hurt at all to be a bastard seller!

"Send the sculpture to the Steel plant outside the city, melt the cannon … "Casting cannon …" The insane did not care if the bronze of the statue was different from the bronze of the cannon. They only had one thought at the moment, and that was to prepare for battle!

"Everything is going to be fuel for the war. It doesn't matter if you're a work of art, the most important thing is to melt it …"

Lawman spoke in a low voice to the police officer beside him. The plainclothes man immediately ran into the crowd and shouted, "Send the Steel plant to Eugene, he knows how to forge cannons. Where would he find enough steel …"

The crowd could not tell who was shouting. At this moment, they were all just following the rules of the crowd. If someone suggested something, they could just carry it out. There were only a few factories that had built cannons, so there wasn't much choice.

The bronze statue was dragged away, and Napoleon's face rubbed violently against the stone slab, causing sparks to fly everywhere!

More soldiers rushed over from the distant city gate to maintain order. After three hours of hard work, the blocked street was finally open for traffic.

People were driving slowly to the right, those who wanted to escape could not stay, and those who wanted to enter could not be stopped!

, who had a depressed look on his face, went to find, the representative, in the afternoon. That's a big problem for me... Those people sent the statue to my factory and told me to melt the cannon... "

"How can I have so many workers... Besides, what's the cost of burning the coke? "I can't just work for nothing …"

"The most important thing is, I can't do it …" Napoleon's statue is about to melt? "

Thiers did not directly answer Eugene's question. He stood at the window looking at the chaotic street in the distance and suddenly asked, "Eugene … Do you know why the France's traffic rules are to the right? Why does Britain drive on the left? "

"Huh?" Eugene was immediately stunned.

"Actually, the earliest traffic habits of humans were to the left, because this was a rule set by the ancient cavalry... "In the Middle Ages, cavalry held shields and held reins in their left hands, while their right hands wielded precious swords …"

"Because most humans are right-handed. They are used to using their right hand... "At this point, if you ride on the left side of the road, you'll be able to nimbly fight against the enemy with your right hand …"

"And why did we in France change that rule? "Is it because of the great revolution? During the great revolution that overthrew the imperial power, in order to show that they were different, they fought with all their might to be different from the other feudal kingdoms …"

"Even the traffic rules have to be changed. Running to the left will eventually change to driving to the right... In that era, moving in a certain direction was actually not a habit, but an attitude! "

"Are you following the old path of feudalism? Or should we take the new path of revolution? "

"Different paths … "Then we'll have to kill people!"

To be honest, Eugene could only understand half of it, but he still felt that melting the statue was equivalent to losing money. Thiers shook his head and smiled, "Don't look at me like that, Roman is taking care of you …. "Listen to me, tonight you can bring the statue out of the city. Since your furnace is outside the city, the soldiers won't stop you …"

"Go north until you meet... Meeting Chinese... You sell them the statue... "Don't worry, you'll make a ton of money. Just casually bring out some bronze and steel materials from your warehouse and forge a few cannons to fool around with …"

At that time, Eugene's legs were shaking like a sieve. You want me to see the Chinese? They can eat human flesh raw... No, no, no, I don't dare! "Please spare me …"

Thiers waved his hands: "You really have no future, I'll just send some people to protect you, hurry up and go, I still have an important mission … …"

The four North African mercenaries carried Eugene back to the carriage, and the group headed straight for his factory!

The ashen-faced Eugene could only gather people to dismantle the huge bronze statue, and then load it onto a horse carriage to rush to the Shabelle Sect. The guards and Self-Defence Force had long heard about the statue's situation, they also knew that Eugene had a smelting factory outside the city.

It didn't take long for the statue to be transported out of Paris, heading north!

It was already past ten in the morning. The outskirts was like a dead zone. Almost all the villages and towns were dead. The farmland and pastures were all abandoned. All the factories had closed their doors.

What Eugene did not know was that the Shabelle Sect had long become a secret agreement between the left and Chinese forces. After Blanqui and his group met, this area became a buffer zone.

The left wing's higher-ups were very clear that Xiao Letian would not take the initiative to attack, so they relaxed their defenses. Furthermore, they would not leave the city too often in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts with the Chinese.

Because of this, the outside of the Shabelle Gate became a strange buffer zone!

At eleven-thirty, suddenly, dozens of lights lit up around the carriage, the Chinese sentry who was hiding in the bushes suddenly rushed out, and aimed a pole of fur at Eugene and the rest.

The timid Eugene immediately knelt down, "I am not a soldier … I'm not a soldier... I'm a businessman... I'm here to do business... Wu wu wu … Don't eat me, my meat is not tasty … "Sob, sob, sob …"

Under the light, the Chinese sentry wearing camouflage clothes revealed his face like a ghost. The interpreter came out and started to chat with the mercenaries in a low voice.

Eugene could not hear clearly, he could only hear Thiers, Napoleon, the statue, the hundred thousand francs. Words, etc.

After 20 minutes, a squadron of riders arrived from the north. A few Chinese people who looked like military officers appeared in front of Eugene.

The canvas and rope were opened, and the broken Napoleon bronze statue appeared in front of everyone, the torch light flickering on the face of the Napoleon Emperor from back then.

"That's it? A hundred thousand francs? "How can we prove that it's real …"

Eugene is a merchant, he is afraid that you will not listen to reason, but he is not afraid that you will bargain, hearing the other party's tone, he immediately stood up.

"Real stuff!" "It's definitely the real deal …"
