Struggle in Russia

Jan Constantine glanced at Li Xiao and David Leboeuf, and then at Perrier next to him. He was relieved to see that the foreign godfather had no missing arms or legs. He didn't find Li Xiao and David Leboeuf just now, and he was afraid that something happened to these two, so he really wanted to cry without tears.

For Jan Constantine, no one can have an accident with these two uncles now. This is not only related to the relationship between Wallachia and France, but also related to their brothers' wealth. Bless, they are still fuckers!

"Mr. Lebouf, Mr. Diomede, as long as you are fine!" Jan Constantine said happily: "I didn't see you just now, and I was worried that something happened to you! Thank God! You are all safe!"

After speaking, this guy wanted to kneel down and comfort him again, but neither Li Xiao nor David Lebouf was interested in listening to these unnutritious nonsense, but asked:

"Mr. Jan Constantine, what happened? Why are there gunshots?"

In fact, Jan Constantine himself was also confused. His reaction was much slower than that of Li Xiao. He didn't realize what he should do until the hall was in chaos, so he hurriedly ordered the bodyguards to check the situation and guard the hall. The portal, to prevent a rebellious party from taking advantage of the momentum and rushing in to take his life. Then, while reassuring the guests and maintaining order with Jan Gika, he realized that his two most important guests were gone when he basically got the situation under control, so he hurried to find someone.

So he actually didn't know what happened, so he hesitated and couldn't answer why, so he could only comfort him softly:

"Mr. Diomede, don't worry, let alone panic. This is the city hall, which is heavily guarded. Even if someone makes trouble, it will be wiped out soon. And I have already sent someone to invite the National Guard. Your safety will definitely not has a problem!"

Well, he thought that Li Xiao was worried about safety issues, but how could Li Xiao be so cowardly? Although he didn't go out to check what happened, he can basically deduce from the scale of the movement that this disturbance should not be big, and it is unlikely to be a rebellion Or a coup, because the movement is too small.

From the sound, it sounded more like an assassination operation. The assassin shot quickly and then retreated with one blow, so there was no continuous firefight. The explosion was more like a means for the assassins to cover their retreat. It should be deliberately creating a disturbance to disturb the audiovisual .

So at this time Li Xiao is really not too nervous. The judgment should be aimed at the high-level members of the National Party and the Provisional Republic like the Bretianu brothers. It is not even ruled out that it is the counterattack of those landlords and nobles who have been blackmailed too hard .

Anyway, at this time Li Xiao is already in the mood of watching a show, he naturally hopes that the situation in Bucharest will be more chaotic, the more chaotic the better, so that he can fish in troubled waters, right?

However, Li Xiao's mentality of watching the excitement did not last long.

Because soon Vishniak hurried back, holding a rapier in his left hand and a pistol in his right hand, and he could smell a strong smell of gunpowder as soon as he approached.

"Did you do it?" Li Xiao asked in astonishment.

Vishniak nodded, his face a little heavy: "Assassins attacked Sir Thomas Edwards' carriage, the driver was killed on the spot, and the Sir was also injured. I shot and wounded one assassin, and the rest All gone. Now the police are in pursuit!"

Well, this short introduction made Jan Konstantin and Jan Gika almost scared to the ground. Although Thomas Edwards disgusted them, at this time, he really couldn't have an accident, let alone die. If the British guy died, he would be in great trouble, and it would be very difficult to explain!

Immediately, Jan Constantine and Jan Gika asked sharply, "Mr. Lucien, how is Sir Thomas Edwards? Is there any danger?"

Vishniak smiled wryly: "I don't know if Sir is okay, because the assassin threw a bomb, the carriage was almost blown apart, Sir was stuck in the carriage and has not been rescued, but the situation is definitely not good, blood It flowed all over the place!"

Jan Konstantin and Jan Gika's eyes were almost blacked out. They really came here for whatever they were afraid of. They no longer cared about comforting and kneeling and licking Li Xiao and David Lebouf. After a hasty confession, He rushed to the scene of the incident with a group of bodyguards.

"The Brit is probably doomed!"

After all the outsiders had left, Vishniak said, "The carriage was almost blown to pieces. I don't believe anyone can survive such an explosion. That Sir is in danger!"

"There are quite a few assassins, at least seven or eight. It should be a well-planned operation. But I just can't figure out why they want to attack the British!"

It was indeed puzzling, because what was the point of killing Sir Thomas Edwards? What good would it be, except that it would piss off the Brits? It's really confusing.

Li Xiao also couldn't figure out why, because the incident was weird from beginning to end. First, the knight came uninvited, and then he was attacked suddenly. Could it be that this was all arranged?

But what is the use of such an arrangement? It is simply inexplicable, what good is this except for angering the British?

"Could it be a bitter scheme by the British?" Anton suddenly interjected and asked, "Thomas Edwards has an accident, which just gives them an excuse to interfere and meddle in Wallachia affairs."

This possibility is not impossible, but the question is, if this is true, how unpopular Sir Thomas Edwards must be to be used as a meat pad, but according to Li Xiao's understanding, this is Robert Ke Hong's confidant, there is no reason to sacrifice a big man like him. Even if the British want to act, it is enough to injure and kill a casual guard or something. There is no need to kill a powerful counselor. ah!

Anyway, the whole thing is weird and inexplicable, making people puzzled, but it's normal for Li Xiao to be unable to figure it out, because Alexei, who organized and planned this operation, also looks depressed at this time, because he is also inexplicable, because they The target was the Bretianu brothers, not Thomas Edwards.

But right before the eyes of Alexei, Fontana, and Barbu Shtilbey, their carefully selected assassins suddenly shot at Thomas Edwards' frame. That was fierce, decisive and efficient. Before Alexey and the others could react, the frame of Thomas Edwards turned into a pile of rotten wood, and the entourage was either killed or injured.

"What's going on? What the hell are you doing?" Barbu Shtilbey was dumbfounded.

Alexei was even more confused. The only person on the scene who woke up the fastest was Fontana. She knew that it was futile and meaningless to ask why now, so she ordered: "Retreat immediately and implement the evacuation plan. quick!"
