Chapter 1775 A day of chaos(2/2)
These situations reported by Bai Qilin gave Cen Yufeng hope to prevent the Japanese army from entering the French Concession.
"Where are the Germans?" Chen Gongshu asked immediately, "What is the German attitude!"
"Yes, what is the attitude of the Germans!" Cen Yufeng asked immediately.
In the past, the Germans had a low sense of presence in the concession. Even in the public concession, their main interests were divided up by the British and Citi people. Even the Italians had a higher voice in the public concession than the Germans.
However, it is different now. As the German army was invincible in the battlefields of Europa, they destroyed Poland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and Belgium one after another. Now they forced the French to surrender, the importance and status of the Germans were suddenly revealed.
Especially when the French mainland has surrendered to the Germans, the Germans' statement on the French Concession is crucial.
...
"The Germans have not spoken yet," said Bai Qilin. "However, there are reports that the French Concession authorities are urgently visiting the German Consul General in Shanghai."
"The attitude of the Germans is the most critical!" Chen Gongshu said, and he sighed, "It can be said that whether the French Concession can be kept depends on the Germans now."
"District." Bai Qilin wanted to speak but stopped.
"What's the matter?" Chen Gongshu asked.
"Miss Li Man's cat is sick. She is clamoring to ask us to arrange someone to treat her cat." Bai Qilin said.
"Ce's mother!" Chen Gong was so angry that he cursed.
He looked at Bai Qilin who was waiting for his reply, "Whoever cares about this bad thing, I will not serve you anymore."
Bai Qilin looked at Cen Yufeng.
Cen Yufeng's face was also gloomy, and he nodded at Bai Qilin.
...
This day was extremely long for everyone in the French Concession.
The citizens were panicked and worried that the next second they would see the Japanese army entering the French Concession with a bayonet hanging with a plaster flag.
In the evening, huge cheers erupted in the French Concession, and some people began to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
The Japanese retreated.
The common people don’t know so many. They only know that the Japanese have withdrew their troops and will not occupy the French Concession. The concession has been kept, so they don’t have to face the Japanese soldiers with fear every day.
"What's going on now?" Cheng Qianfan looked tired, covering up the "lost" and "unwillingness" in his eyes, and asked Pitt.
"Our resistance is effective, and there are strong opposition from the British, American, and Soviets. The Japanese temporarily withdrew their troops." Pete said while sitting on the sofa.
"Retreat for the time being?" Cheng Qianfan frowned, "What does it mean?"
"It's literal." Pete said, he hesitating before saying, "The Germans came forward."
"German?"
"The German Consul General in Shanghai met with the Japanese." Peter said, "Thereafter, representatives from various countries held a meeting, and the Japanese temporarily withdrew their troops. Regarding the future of the French Concession, we will discuss the future of the French Concession."
"Discuss on a date? Who should I discuss with?" Cheng Qianfan sneered and said, "Is it the Betan government and the Japanese who discussed the future of the concession?"
When Peter heard this, he frowned. He now had a very poor impression of the Marshal Betton, whom he admired the most in the past. He was even more disgusted with Betton's government in southwestern France, and even refused to recognize the Betton government.
However, the future of the French Concession is indeed only the Betan government to make the decision.
"No matter what, the Japanese withdrew their troops, and their ambitions and attempts to invade the concession were also exposed." Pete said, "Don't worry, the Japanese's ambitions to seek the concession cannot succeed."
"In the end, German talents will temporarily retain the concession." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and said.
As soon as Pete's face changed, he was about to argue with Cheng Qianfan, but he still didn't speak in the end. He was now upset and extremely irritable.
