Gao Shaoyi also knew that both the opposition within the imperial court and the six major powers themselves would have a battle with them sooner or later, so under such circumstances, he had to develop his power quickly.
The reason why I want to get the establishment so crazily is because I don't want to have any disputes with the imperial court. After all, the main enemies now are the six major powers, not the people within the imperial court.
After sending Li Hongtang away, Gao Shaoyi began to prepare for his own affairs, which was to clean up various illegal assets outside the concession.
Aren’t you people hiding in the concession and not coming out?
I will find a way to get you people out.
"How prepared is everyone?"
After sending Li Hongtang away, Gao Shaoyi returned to his temporary headquarters. He had just ordered Wang Wu to go down and prepare people.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. A small team of forty people is already ready, and we are just waiting for your order."
Wang Wu patted his chest, and dozens of teams below had already assembled.
"How are your preparations going?"
Gao Shaoyi turned around and looked at Wang Laoer.
According to Gao Shaoyi's strategy, Wang Lao Er went to check these assets. Wang Lao Er had to prepare three thousand people. If the rented army was dispatched, they would immediately rush over to block them. At worst, everyone would not be able to fight.
Prevent Gao Shaoyi from inspecting these assets.
This is a large amount of money. According to incomplete estimates, in the past few decades, foreigners have purchased an unknown number of properties outside the concession, and there are also many valuable things stored here. If we check them all,
If it exceeds the limit, it will be enough for Gao Shaoyi to use for more than ten years.
At that time, don't care how many reasons you people have. Anyway, as long as the meat I eat is in my mouth, it has nothing to do with you guys. Just expect me to spit out the meat and wait for the sun to come out from the west.
"When I get back to the Marquis, three thousand elite troops and two artillery batteries have been prepared. As long as the foreign devils dare to make any move, I will lead my men to devour them immediately."
Originally, my brothers were ready to fight on the day they killed people, but who knew that the foreign devils were intimidated at that time. Now, if there is a chance, none of the brothers will be afraid.
Mainly because during the battle in the embassy district of Beijing, they saw that they were better than the foreign devils. Who doesn't want to make contributions?
The Marquis said, killing a foreign devil is worth two silver coins. This money is so easy to make, why don't you just bask in the sun here if you don't kill the foreign devil?
"I personally take charge of the battle and take action."
After Gao Shaoyi finished speaking, he got on the horse. Although there are many tricycles nowadays, Gao Shaoyi always felt that this thing was too shameful and it was not as comfortable as riding a horse.
But the people under Gao Shaoyi don't think so. They feel that at least they are too backward. The sound of the three wheels starting is not to mention very enjoyable. Riding on the street has a 100% turn-around rate. Can this be compared to a war horse?
Haicheng South District.
This is an area where many foreign devils gather. Due to the tense situation in Haicheng these two days, many foreign devils have returned to live in the concession.
Some people even started to transfer assets, but because of time constraints, many people had just packed their treasures into boxes, and the anti-rogue troops had already appeared on the streets.
"Everyone, listen carefully. The Marquis has ordered that no idlers should come out to the streets. They should all stay in their homes and wait for inspection. Anyone who dares to come out to the streets at will will be arrested by the Suppression Army."
"Everyone listen up..."
Before these people here could understand the situation, the loudspeakers of the Suppression Army had already begun to spread the word.
This is to seal off this area...
Although many foreigners have left, many more have come to transfer their property and are now stuck in their own homes.
Are the people who suppress the captives going to conduct inspections?
The faces of several foreigners were very frightened. There were many valuable things in the houses here. If the people of the Suppression Army inspected them, then these things...
They couldn't imagine what the outcome would be, so a few bold ones went out with their guards.
"Didn't you hear the announcement just now? Everyone has to stay at home. What do you people want to do with guns?"
Unfortunately, these foreigners had just arrived at the courtyard and were about to go out when they were blocked at the door by the nearby suppressing troops.
"We are merchants from the Gallic Empire, why don't you let us out?"
The attitude of the foreigners who were still aggressive just now changed a lot after seeing a dozen soldiers holding rifles at the door.
To be honest, they didn't take the people of Daqian seriously, let alone these soldiers. This should be the kindest thing they said after coming to Daqian.
"We don't care which country's businessmen there are. We have received orders from the Marquis. Everyone must stay at home. If anyone dares to step out of the house, we will arrest them immediately."
The monitor at the door said arrogantly.
Deep down, I felt very comfortable. If it weren't for Mr. Hou, how would he have the right to speak in such a tone to these foreign devils?
A few foreign devils looked at the situation at the door. If they forced their way out, they would not be able to take advantage. They could only take the people back first and wait for the concession to come to rescue them.
"Everyone, stop here. Who told you to go back?"
The foreign devils who turned around were immediately dumbfounded. You didn't let us out just now, so why don't we go back now?
"What do you mean? Do you want us to stand in the middle of the yard?"
Even if he suppressed his anger, the Gauls could hardly hold it back.
"According to the regulations of the imperial court, all of you are not allowed to wear weapons after leaving the concession area. Now I ask you to explain the source of these weapons and hand them over to us."
The officer put his hand on his holster, and Gao Shaoyi equipped everyone above the squad leader with a pistol, which was a strong threat of force.
"You are simply going too far. These weapons are all our private property. If I don't hand them over to you, I don't believe you dare to shoot at us."
The disguised Gauls finally could no longer suppress their anger.
"Second warning, you immediately put your gun at the door and take three steps back."
The leading officer took out his pistol, and the soldiers outside also raised their rifles, aiming at the Gallic businessmen in the yard.
Looking at the black muzzles, several Gallic businessmen were a little confused. Once upon a time, we used the muzzles to intimidate these Dagan people. When did we change from hunters to prey???
