Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Lin Yuan asked: "How are your people doing now? Where are they all?"

The officer said: "Our people were blocking the people on both sides at first, but later found that they couldn't stop them at all. They even attacked us, so we withdrew."

Lin Yuan asked, "Are there any casualties?"

The officer said: "They used wooden sticks or something, and the injuries they hit were not serious, so we didn't die, but basically everyone suffered minor injuries."

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, go back and rest, we'll leave this place to us."

The officer led the people away, Lin Yuan pointed to a nearby restaurant and said: "The terrain here is relatively high, I set up the headquarters here, and I will go up first to see the overall situation."

A few officers nearby hurriedly went to the restaurant to knock on the door, and after a while, a middle-aged man came out, who seemed to be a shopkeeper, and when he saw Lin Yuan and the others, he said: "Mr. gone."

Lin Yuan said a few words of comfort, and walked to the top floor in a few steps. As soon as he got upstairs, he heard the messy sound of boiling porridge. Looking around, he saw people everywhere in the streets and open spaces below, some hugging each other. Fighting on the ground, some wielding wooden sticks, the surrounding small stalls fell down, all the things sold on the stalls fell on the ground, the needles and threads were soaked in mutton noodle soup, and the meat buns were wrapped in flower cloth. up.

At this time, an officer beside Lin Yuan said: "Shuai Lin, the situation is so chaotic now, it may not be effective for us to drive them away by shooting outside, should we consider asking the troops to bring more sticks, charge into the crowd, and separate the crowd? .”

Lin Yuan frowned and didn't speak, but pointed down with his hand and said, "Didn't you notice something wrong?"

The officer hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Yuan pointed to the crowd and said, "Can you tell which people are Bannermen and which people are Han Chinese?"

Hearing what Lin Yuan said, the officer raised the binoculars in his hand, looked down, and said, "I see some people in the crowd have braids, and some have just had their braids cut off. Could it be that the ones with the braids are the Bannermen, and the ones who cut the braids are the Han Chinese? "

Lin Yuan pointed with his finger and said, "Look over there, the people fighting are all those who just cut off their braids, and there are also a few people with braids fighting together."

The officer said: "Didn't you say that this fight was a conflict between Manchu and Han? Do the people below know who is Han and who is a bannerman?"

Lin Yuan said: "Impossible, this matter is definitely not that simple! Let the troops rush in later to arrest more people, and I will interrogate them carefully."

The officer nodded and said, "Then I'll arrange for the troops to get sticks?"

Lin Yuan asked, "Where does our army have sticks?"

The officer thought for a while and said: "There are shovels for earthwork in the army. If you remove the handle of the shovel, it can be used as a wooden stick."

Lin Yuan shook his head again and again, and said, "How long will it take? By the time you finish writing the shovel, the people below will be finished!"

The officer asked, "What can Commander Lin do?"

Lin Yuan said: "Contact Xiao Yingwu by radio immediately and ask him to transfer the chemical defense battalion. Their troops are equipped with tear gas bombs. We used them when we were in Mongolia. Now the fighting is too chaotic. Our most important thing is to Disperse the crowd."

The officer said: "I'll do it now." The officer turned and left. At this moment, Lin Yuan suddenly heard a quarrel in the crowd below, and Lin Yuan hurriedly asked: "What's going on? What happened to our own people?" Are you still arguing?"

An officer said, "I'll ask right away!" Then he ran out, and after a while he came back and said, "Report to Commander Lin, some reporters are here, and they insist on rushing through our blockade to get in for interviews. Our men wouldn't let them in, so there was a quarrel."

Lin Yuan frowned, glanced at his watch, and asked the officer, "Where is the newspaper office?"

The officer replied: "In the west of the city!"

Lin Yuan then asked, "How did they get here?"

The officer replied: "Carriage!"

Lin Yuan immediately said: "The west of the city is still a carriage, and it is only 10 minutes behind us. The news of this group of reporters is too well-informed, right?"

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, the officer hurriedly said: "Shuai Lin, it's not that our troops are slow to dispatch. We have always been in a state of combat readiness, and there is no waste of time in dispatching."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly, and said, "I don't mean to blame you, I think there is another conspiracy behind this matter, you go and call the head reporter for me."

The officer turned around and went out. Not too long ago, a blond young woman came up. Lin Yuan had seen many blond women, including a Russian princess and the daughter of the curator of a French museum, but the woman in front of him still made him feel It was a bright feeling, but Lin Yuan also felt that she was very familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere.

Without waiting for Lin Yuan to speak, he only listened to the reporter: "Shuai Lin, it's you?"

Lin Yuan looked at the woman for a while and asked, "Do you know me?"

The woman smiled and said, "We met, don't you remember me? When I was in France, I reported that you treated Russian women as slaves. How did you forget?"

Lin Yuan thought of the events in France, and said in surprise, "I thought you looked familiar, so it was you! Excuse me, what's your name?"

The female reporter smiled and said, "My name is Wen Sili."

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "That's right, that's you. How did you come to China?"

Wen Sili said: "I reported the Russian slander incident and won a very high honor and position, so I came to China."

Lin Yuan asked: "How did you get the news? The speed is amazing!"

Wen Sili said: "We usually ask people to provide us with various news, and we give rewards. Today we received this news, so we came here. Let's go in and interview. The public has the right to know the truth of the matter."

Lin Yuan looked at Wen Sili's sweet smile and thought to himself: "Don't look at this chick smiling like an angel, but she doesn't know what's going on in her stomach! Foreign newspapers and news will never say Our good words are the same whether it is in my era or this era. I don’t know how badly they will write about the brawl today. Even the fact that I don’t let them in to protect them will be written by them. Use it as an excuse to attack us!"

Seeing that Lin Yuan hadn't spoken, Wen Sili turned her face straight and said, "Mr. Lin Yuan, we are going in for an interview, but your subordinates obstructed us for no reason, so I formally protest to you!"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "The situation inside is very chaotic, and your safety cannot be guaranteed when you go in."

Wen Sili said righteously: "The duty of our reporters is to find out the truth of the matter, and our professional ethics make us not afraid of any danger."

Lin Yuan smiled secretly in his heart: "What a hypocritical woman, you just pretend to be in front of others with these words, don't I know what you are? You can make up news for money and fame! I won't let you in. It’s a big news worth fabricating, I understand it, you know I’m sure I’m afraid to let you in, that’s why I said these things to me, you can use the fact that I don’t let you in to weave bad things about us!”

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "We have always given reporters the freedom to interview, you can bring your team in for interviews now!"
