Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C3327 Eugene Andrew's Great Escape

The successful merchants were all extremely intelligent and would not be able to go far with luck alone.

The war in Paris was so chaotic that everyone was scared silly and lost the ability to think. However, Eugene and Andrew could still observe the environment carefully even though they had been through so much everyday.

They were studying every minute change around them, including the details of the Devils. If they could capture him, they would be able to reap the rewards!

With a map of Paris hidden in his mind, he was looking at a familiar neighborhood. They had to study where the battle was taking place, where the defense was located, and where people could be hidden.

Are there any patterns in the daily patrols and night raids? If one looked carefully, one would be able to find some clues.

How could he hide from the Secret Police under Raoult Rigo's command? How could he hide in the crowd and not be discovered? These were all small ways.

Everyone knew that this was the best chance to escape hell, even Qi Bolin's airship that flew in the sky every day. However, many people could not catch it.

Any citizen who attempted to escape in the airship would be killed by a double entanglement between the commune and the government.

Getting on the airship requires luck, you have to avoid being discovered by the government and commune soldiers, and you have to let the Chinese airship discover you. The timing has to be especially good, and the most important thing is to be able to determine in advance which region the airship will appear in.

Without meticulous observation, it would be difficult to find a pattern, and what merchants lacked the most was observation.

Eugene and Andrew were like timid mice as they started to lurk in the darkness. They were surrounded by buildings that had been destroyed by gunfire, each collapsing one after another to reveal their internal structure.

You have to be very careful not to make even the slightest sound in order to avoid enemy patrols. Sometimes, you even have to carefully choose your route, and even have to go back and forth on the same path.

The two of them walked through the strange nightmares as they carefully observed the battle.

The small intersection where the Angel Fountain was built had already been built by the Sand Bag Street. A woman wearing a long skirt and waving a rifle and a red flag was bravely encouraging the commune warrior to fight.

The soldiers on top of the sandbags continued to fire at the soldiers. The bullets from both sides flew through the air and caused the red flag to be riddled with holes.

Facing the enemy's rain of bullets, this Female Warrior was not afraid in the slightest. Her every action was elegant and moving, his entire body exceptionally agile, especially the curve of his neck and collarbone, which was as graceful as a swan's.

Eugene and Andrew were crawling in the ruins from afar, wiggling like two maggots. When Eugene saw the charming Female Warrior, he was immediately shocked.

He stared blankly at her before suddenly whispering, "Oh my god!" If I could see her again... "I will definitely give my all to pursue her …"

"Let's go, stop being so lecherous. Right now, you have no way to continue living …"

Andrew pulled him on, trying to avoid the fighting as much as he could by squirming in the gap between the ruins that could only accommodate stray cats and dogs.

Unfortunately, both of them were unlucky. After crawling for over an hour, they were stopped by an even more intense battle. The government army had already broken through the defenses of another block and had entered into a beautiful roundabout battle.

The vanguard unit of the government army had already blown up a small arsenal!

Eugene and Andrew desperately stuffed their heads into the gap between the ruins. Not far in front of them, there was a continuous series of explosions, and the shockwave was reverberating on their butts. They could even feel the heat of the raging flames.

The two could only crawl back to the entrance like maggots. However, when they saw the entrance to the Angel Fountain, they saw that the scene in front of them made their hearts bleed.

The beautiful Female Warrior had died in the dry fountain, his body leaning on the statue, with the red flag at her feet.

A few government soldiers used bayonets to pick apart the woman's clothes, the wave of laughter spread over, and in a short while, the Female Warrior's clothes were all ripped apart by the bayonet.

"Bastard …" "Bastard …" Eugene collapsed. He subconsciously wanted to rush out, but Andrew covered his mouth tightly.

"Don't you want to live? The woman is dead... She didn't know any of this. Her soul was at peace … "Let's go …"

"I know that there is a section of sewer that can let you pass, even if you can escape from it from a distance …"

It seemed that God still cared about them both. When they entered the sewer, they realized that the explosion didn't destroy this place. Although there were collapsed bricks everywhere, it was still possible to squeeze past one person.

The two of them struggled on the stinking water until they met the other two at the place where the scream came from.

"Who is it?"

Two sharp daggers rested against Eugene and Andrew's necks, they were so shocked that they almost wet their pants.

"We are ordinary citizens, we are small traders, we are not people who fight wars … "We are not a threat, please don't kill me …"

With a 'swish', a match was lit, and one of them glared at the two of them. I know you two, you two are not small traders! "

"Eugene and Andrew? The one who opened the Steel plant and the one who pawned it, are they not right … "

The two of them thought it was a bad thing, but now their identities had been exposed!

Without another word, the two of them kneeled in the stinky water and took out all of their gold coins. "Friend, please let us go, we are merchants, we really aren't here for war …"

Seeing the gold, the two men sheathed their daggers. "Are you two trying to escape?" "You want to board the airship?"

"Like you, we also want to escape … "Let's make a deal. We'll escort you both aboard the airship, and then you can pay us 20,000 francs …"

"I know you two are rich, smuggling antiques into China to earn money, this little money really isn't that big of a deal …"

Why did the person who spoke look so familiar? Eugene and Andrew's minds were already muddled from the fear of death, and could not recall a single thing.

Finally, the two men stamped their feet. "If you can really protect us, we'll give you twenty thousand francs!"

"Alright, the deal is complete …"

The four of them continued walking forward. After less than fifty meters, the leading man stopped and said in a low voice, "There's a commune's ammunition depot in front of us on the left. Where are the heavy soldiers …"

"Listen …" Right now, the government forces are besieging the ammunition depot … "

"If we go out now, we will definitely be killed by both sides. We must wait for an opportunity …"

The four of them hid themselves in the darkness, their heads filled with the faint sounds of battle and gunfire!

After less than twenty minutes, a loud explosion came from the direction of the ammunition depot. The entire sewer was like an earthquake and the four of them could not stand stably.

Shattered bricks and earth crackled above their heads!

"Right now … Hurry up and go … The ammunition depot has been captured by the Government Army, quickly leave!
