"You don't know politics, and you think this is a simple case of stealing artifacts? This Sai Mouerbeike is not a simple person... "

"Since Samuel was able to accompany the Emperor of Tongzhi back to the country and was even able to form the Expedition with Gordon, it means that this person himself is very powerful!"

"He definitely has to take on the secret mission of this British Government... "I don't even need to guess to know what it is. It's just a matter of scouting out information …"

"The British placed such a heavy stake in the Tongzhi Emperor, do they not care about nothing and allow them to lose money?"

"You really need to be careful in dealing with people like Sai Mouerbeike. If you go and confront him openly now, what if he doesn't admit to it? Do you really dare to search his body, or his Expedition? "

"Why not? He stole from us! " The left side of his body was fuming with rage.

"That's not a reason!" Shang Tai growled, "Who doesn't steal from each other these days? Is everything I got in Egypt and the Central Asia legal? So we're all clean? "

"What's more, these remains were all ownerless several thousands of years ago. In the end, this Great Qing doesn't even have the authority to manage them … Although there are penalties in the law of the Great Qing Dynasty for stealing a grave, is this stealing a grave? "

"Even if it is an ancient tomb, as long as it is old enough, it would not be able to find any more descendants … Without a suitor's complaint, the government will not interfere! "

"Even if the magistrate wanted to, who would? Who would offend the English Master Yang? "

"In the final analysis, if you want to punish Samuel in this matter, you have no choice."

The left side grinded his teeth, "Then let's do them!" "There are only sixteen of them, I don't believe we can't kill them …"

"You can pull it down …" Shang Tai blocked the left side of his mouth and said with a low voice, "Are you crazy? Sixteen people from the British Government all mysteriously died here, do you think the British Government doesn't care? "

"Say it yourself, do we have the strength to fight against the British right now? Can you beat Englishman? "

This left him speechless. With a flushed face, he recalled the forest like factory chimneys and the cloud like fleet of warships in England … In the end, all he could do was let out a long sigh!

"Samuel said that he wanted to stay at the Guizhou and Gordon's place. Why is Zuo Zongtang so nervous?"

"In the end, I have to force Samuel to write a letter to the embassy, saying that life and death is my responsibility, I will not be responsible if I take Zuo Zongtang out first, only then will Great Master Zuo let me go!"

"If Samuel hadn't said that, do you think the marshal would have let him stay?" "Even if I have to tie him up, I still have to take him away …"

"In front of us, there are sixteen members of the British team, including the British soldiers. If these people were to die here …" You've caused trouble for the Führer! "

"Don't act rashly... There's still a way, we'll numb the enemy first! "

The left side had also calmed down by now. He took a deep breath and smoked two cigarettes. He rubbed his face and rubbed his hands together as he looked towards the distant camp through the broken window and sneered.

"Alright!" I'll listen to you. First, I won't alert you... In any case, I've already sent word to the leader about Samuel, so let's wait for his orders first! "

"Right!" That's right... "Since we have more people, we will have to keep an eye on these English people in the next few days!"

"We will absolutely not let them act alone. I don't believe that they will dare to steal things in front of us!"

The left side had plotted with Shang Tai for a long time. When the two of them returned to the camp, breakfast had already been prepared.

However, thinking back carefully, the mural he stole was actually hidden behind the Buddha's back. Logically speaking, it shouldn't have been discovered so quickly!

As a result, when he was eating, he discovered that there was nothing abnormal between Shang Tai and his left side.

There was so much more food and necessities than Sai Mouerbeike and the rest in the desert, even though they were only at the King level. The King level of the Expedition was truly extraordinary, their supplies were much better than Sai Mouerbeike and the rest.

The true archaeological work began during the day. The people started with measuring the distance, area, and number of the caves, and then began to clean up the accumulated sand in some of the major caves.

Hundreds of people started getting busy in Mogao's cave, pulling ropes, digging out sand, drawing, and taking photographs … There were also some soldiers in the logistics camp who had to let go of their scouts to investigate the surrounding mountains and rivers.

This time, Shang Tai and the people on the left secretly ordered their subordinates to stare at them one-on-one, they would absolutely not allow the British to move alone.

Samuel had been depressed by the events of the day. There were several times when he saw the exquisite murals and statues of the Buddha, but there was no chance for him to kill them even if he wanted to.

When evening came, what was even more unimaginable to the British was that in the morning, they sent guides to report to Dunhuang County. In the evening, another ten yamen runners and twenty veterans were sent to help.

With more people here, Sai Mouerbeike would not even have the chance to make his move!

Although Shang Tai did not reveal his identity, he still carried Zuo Zongtang's letter. All the officials in the city had to cooperate fully, and the small Dunhuang County was a poor official who could not stay in the Central Plains. He did not have any connections, so he was forced to come here to work for the sect in order to gain experience.

This place belonged to the late Qing. It was a place where no one could afford to offend the county magistrate, so when they saw Commander Zuo's order, they immediately used it as an imperial decree.

When Shang Tai saw that the reinforcements had arrived, he was overjoyed and immediately ordered Dunhuang County to prepare another two hundred people.

This was the Western region of Jiayuguan that had just finished their war, and the Dunhuang had just passed through the rebel army. It was a time of joy for them, taking care of their food and food while paying them 50 yuan a day.

The Dunhuang's County Magistrate immediately opened the list of the entire city, sending over 300 people from Dunhuang's County to do their work.

Hundreds of elderly men and women had even been organized to transport supplies and foodstuffs. In the endless desert, there was an endless stream of Hunchbacked Horses and the ruins had turned into a market.

As the number of people in China increased, Samuel cursed in his heart. These Chinese people all listened to Shang Tai and Leftie's orders, their own words were completely useless.

Every day, the people chasing after his ass were Chinese, even going to the toilet was not allowed. Seeing Baoshan but not being able to do anything about it was too bad.

At this moment of anxiety, the injury that was 80% healed increased by 30%!

Cleaning up the sand in the Mogao's cave was not something that could be done overnight. Even after a whole month, he had only managed to clear the path outside the cave.

Just when everyone was prepared for a prolonged battle, Dunhuang County's caravan accidentally brought a disguised CIA spy.

He gave the signal to the left, and a telegram arrived in the left hand.
