Humph, Lelan Stanford is ready to sacrifice his life!

"If you have something to do, please give me the order!" The one who answered first was Chini Caponela.

Long Hao looked at the beautiful lady and smiled meaningfully: "Okay, these things really require Madame Caponela's full help..."

Several things Long Hao explained are as follows.

The first is to continue to create an atmosphere where you are unable to resist the pressure of the special investigation team and win yourself sympathy and extra points.

Second, Chini was asked to set an example, lead the maritime businessmen, and lead the people to start buying stocks in the Earl sector at a low price, and to declare to the outside world that this move was to support Long Hao and was optimistic that Earl of Beihai could overcome the difficulties.

Third, Stevenson and Leland Stanford used their political resources to call for momentum and tried to delay the time of "boarding" for Long Hao, and it would be best to wait until Major General Miller gave him the "100,000 Army"

Call it out, and, it is best to drive into San Francisco.

fourth……

The arrangements of the Earl of Beihai are a bit imaginative, which makes Old Stevenson and the others a little confused, but out of trust in Long Hao (well, the mayor does not count, he must listen to Long Hao), they still changed.

The head did his best.

Long Hao had an arrangement and Captain Krim returned to the Gogol and reported everything that happened on the dock to Benson.

After hearing this, Benson laughed and slapped Krem. This was a joyful slap: "God really helps me. I know Miller, who is the leader of this special investigation team, will show that

The military headquarters still supports me! Haha, now, the Earl of Beihai cannot escape!"

After saying that, Benson clenched his fists hard.

Krim rubbed his cheeks and asked carefully: "Captain, that, are you going ashore to confront the Earl of North Sea?"

"To your mother!"

Benson glared and kicked Krim hard, but this was a kick that was so disappointing: "Grass. Have you entered the seaweed in your head? Now we have the advantage, why are you going ashore? Of course, I'm waiting for Beihai.

The Count comes here by himself, stupid!"

"Ouch!"

Krim covered his stomach and said miserably: "But, but in that case, external public opinion will be detrimental to us and may discredit your image as Captain!"

Idiot, I'm already in a difficult situation now, and the shells are almost knocked out half of the inventory. I'll have to smear the image. Anyway, as long as the Earl of Beihai gets it, I can go to the big man! Benson squinted his eyes and thought: Wait for the limelight

After that, it's not too late for me to come back.

"This captain said it well!"

Feilimante spoke next to him, "The pressure of public opinion still needs to be considered. Little Benson, if you don't bombard it, you might as well consider going ashore to give the Earl of North Sea a fatal blow! Don't worry. The British soldiers under my command are all

After a lot of battles, I will send them to protect you with strong soldiers who are both beautiful in the water and land. Hoho, those Spanish expeditionary forces are not worth worrying about!”

Benson rolled his eyelids and ignored Ferrymant's words.

This old British man was looking for opportunities to generate income again: Yes, as the inventory of shells decreased, there was little chance of continuing to bombard the gun, the gambling-loving naval general began to look for a new growth point for the US dollar.

Isn’t it just a fee to send troops?

In fact, Benson misunderstood Ferrymant this time.

Feirimant is not for money, but for the release of his subordinates.

Thinking about it, these British sailors followed Benson on the sea for more than half a month. Seeing the prosperous San Francisco in front of them, they couldn't land! Hey, the battleship guns are so good, but

The dick of our soldiers is still hungry and thirsty!

It’s better to hold two balls of floury meat in your hands than to hold on to two pieces of floury meat in both hands!

Feilimante even had several night patrols and found several British soldiers masturbating at the US dollar bills in their hands: Oh, the US dollar bills are George Washington, how heavy does this taste have?!

The experienced Firimante understood that he could no longer let his men hold him in, so today he seized the opportunity and tried to encourage Benson to go ashore. By the way, he also brought these groups of people who saved dollars and carried the boring birds.

The British soldiers went ashore for fun.

"General Ferrimante, I have my own opinions."

Unfortunately, Benson's favor for Ferrymant was lower than zero, so he refused coldly and ordered Krim: "Tell me, either the Count of the North Sea boarded the ship, or I would continue to bombard the dock!

As for public opinion, let them shout, if I shout too much, they will be quiet..."

Benson had made up his mind, and Ferrymant touched his chin regretfully, but he didn't persuade him anymore. Krim took his life, didn't even bother to drink, and hurried back on the boat.

May 30, 1892, San Francisco Trading Harbour, morning.

The two shellings of "Boom Boom" were completely announced, together with Benson's decision brought by Krem, the "peace talks" failed: Colonel Benson refused to land and still insisted that the "sinner" Earl of North Sea must board the ship to receive the naval investigation!

At noon on May 30, shortly after the shelling, San Francisco Mayor Stevenson expressed his position at the Mayor's Building: supporting the Earl of North Sea and expelling the special investigation team from Washington.

On the afternoon of May 30, when Major General Miller and his subordinates were driven out of the private villa by the police, Miller, who was still wearing gauze on his mouth, led his men to the dock and raised a telegram to declare:

The ministry has dispatched an army and will come to San Francisco soon. If the San Francisco city government still insists on protecting the Earl of North Sea, then what awaits them will be the attacks between the army and the navy!

From this moment on, the Special Investigation Team and the Benson Fleet stood in the same camp.

Miller really attracted many reporters at the "waste utilization" platform at the dock, but in terms of ability to summon reporters, he was still not as good as Old Stevenson.

After Miller issued the 'Break Declaration', Stevenson, the old man announced in a tit-for-tat way: The Special Investigation Team colluded with Colonel Benson to try to slander the Earl of North Sea. In this regard, the San Francisco City Government will stand at the Earl of North Sea without reservation.

On this side, representing justice, fight with Major General Miller and Colonel Benson to the end!

At 16 pm, a supplement to the San Jose Courier appeared on the streets and alleys of San Francisco. Its views were clear and it supported the city government.

On the evening of May 30, the remarks of both sides were transmitted to the surrounding areas of San Francisco, the East Coast, Europe... on the evening of May 30, but at this time, the verbal battle was still calm.

There is no way to calm down. The special investigation team has no soldiers, and Benson is unwilling to let the British soldiers who are so tired that they are suffocated to go ashore and bite people. Because once the situation intensifies, Benson is worried that these British sailors may become

The handle the other party seized.

Old Stevenson did not move either. Perhaps he was afraid of being a timid player. Although the Spanish Expeditionary Force was used as a trump card for support, the mayor was probably afraid that Miller's "All-Road Army" was not bragging, but real!

On May 31, the last day of May, things did not develop in a good direction, but took a sharp turn and advanced towards the worst and most intense direction: San Francisco began to be in chaos!

There are many reasons for chaos, so let’s briefly describe it one by one.

In the early morning of the 31st, Major General Miller's support for the Army had been confirmed, and it was an elite division on the US-Mexico border. Its number was 338e and the number was 10,338.

The 338e division is well-equipped and brave enough to fight. They rushed from the railway line and estimated that they would arrive in San Francisco in just three days.

Less than half an hour after the news that was unfavorable to Stevenson and Long Hao came, it seemed as if it was a demonstration. Pushkin cooperated to carry out a salvo of the main guns, and three large-caliber shells hit the trade terminal.

Fortunately, the warehouse was empty, but it was very disturbing, but it did not cause a big fire.

However, unexpectedly, these three guns became a "sub-line" fuse: before the sound of bombardment disappeared, a group of people who claimed to be the lord of the warehouse surrounded the city government and asked the mayor to invite the Earl of Beihai to leave.

, demand that the Earl of North Sea either board Bansen's ship or compensate for the losses in his warehouse!

In each warehouse, this group of people actually opened their mouths and offered a sky-high claim of 500,000 US dollars!

In fact, since May 29, the Earl of North Sea has disappeared from the public eye. The mouthpieces outside are always Stevenson. This time, the "devil" who blocked the door is still Stevenson.

Sen came forward and said: The compensation is OK, but 500,000 US dollars is too much. The Earl of Beihai is not a sucker and will not pay so much money!

Obviously, these victims came prepared, and they refused to give in and shouted: At that time, the Earl of Beihai took over the losses of the bombardment, are you going to regret it now? 500,000 US dollars is not much, because it is piled up in the warehouse.

The goods are more than 500,000! And now they are all blown to ashes!

Faced with the unreasonable troubles of these victims, Old Stevenson gave in a stern face and ordered the police to expel them. A conflict between officials and the people broke out at the gate of the city government.

When the police, who have the advantage of the number of people and equipment, were about to drive away the group of victims, a larger wave of people rushed to the city government. Not only were there white people, but also yellow people and black people... not only had different skin colors, but also different dressing classes.

There are brightly dressed businessmen, simple-dressed workers, and even a group of shirtless 'freelancers'!

Some of them held slogans and banners, some shouted while blowing trumpets, and some held wooden sticks and iron forks in their hands, looking at the city government with malicious intentions.

"Super the Earl of North Sea! Send this big liar!"

"Compend on our losses! We want to cash (cash), don't check (check)!"

"The municipal government gives an explanation! What kind of bill is against racial discrimination? Why should we submit it to discussion? Everyone shouted to me, oppose the abolition of the Chinese Exclusion Act and oppose the granting of dirty Chinese citizenship!"

"We do not support Leland Stanford's campaign. He is a borer on the railroad. He should go home to support his old age, not continue to work in politics, and continue to deceive our kind people in California!"

...

A sound of sound seemed to shake the glass of the city government building!

In the building.

Lelan Stanford asked Old Stevenson in confusion: "What's going on? How did this wave of people emerge? I saw that many of the people who were parade were maritime merchants? And local ones

Rich businessmen, Chinese laborers? Oh, Chinese people oppose the 'abolition of the Chinese Exclusion Act'. Is my ears crazy, or are these Chinese people crazy?"

Leland Stanford's doubts were quickly answered, and a rumor came: The Rothschild family's bank in San Francisco had just announced that the checks of Earl of North Sea in its bank were invalid!

The identity of the spokesperson was shocking. It was Kant Rothschild who ran to the dock not long ago to personally support Long Hao.

Did mygod suddenly change his mind because of the bombardment crisis that has not been resolved for a long time and the suspicion of sinking five American ships on Long Hao?

No one can guess the specific reason. But Kant's announcement undoubtedly cut a fierce axe behind Long Hao: the bank refused to pay the Earl of Beihai, so why don't the maritime merchants who feel sorry for the ships have arrived yet?

Municipal Government, ask Long Hao to give an explanation?

At 10 a.m. on May 31, the crowds of people blocked the city government's door. Due to too many people marching, the police in San Francisco retreated into the compound and barely built a line of defense to prevent crazy people.

Rush to the municipal building to cause damage.
