The country was in a precarious situation. If such a thing happened again, what would happen to the entire country?
"What excuse will they use?”
"Have you forgotten about me? Fortunately, I've been a new citizen. If I wasn't here, this shit basin might really fall on my head.”
"Hmm, that makes sense. But what should we do now?”
"Sir, use my matter as an excuse. In order to prevent similar things from happening, order all the citizens of our country to evacuate and strictly maintain neutrality.”
"Hmm, that's a good idea, but…do they really dare?”
"That makes sense. These foreign powers are so unscrupulous. I'll go to Fengtian tomorrow.”
"Yes, sir!" Old Zhang was happy.
"But did your son tell you this?”
"That's right!"
"Don't say that when you go to Fengtian. Just say that you thought of it yourself. Also, go back now and let your son analyze it for you. If General Fengtian asks for details, don't be unable to answer.”
"Understood. Thank you for your promotion, sir!”
"You've also given me face. Moreover, your cavalry patrol unit is the new citizens 'reliance. This bunch of foreign powers might attack us one day!”The magistrate also had a worried look on his face.
Old Zhang's good mood also disappeared a lot!
When they returned home, they saw that their son was still awake. They hurriedly pulled Zhang Hanqing's hand and asked.
Zhang Zhaoshi wasn't too happy." It's already so late. Our son is still young. Aren't you letting him sleep?”
"Tomorrow, I will go to Fengtian with the magistrate. Today, we must make things clear. Our son is a prodigy. Even the magistrate agrees with what he said.”
"Really?"
"How can this be fake? However…when we arrive at Fengtian tomorrow, I, Old Zhang, told him about these things. The adults reminded me not to mention my son!”
"Yes, that's true. Our son is a famous prodigy in Xinmin, but the people in Fengtian don't know.”Zhang Zhaoshi said.
Old Zhang didn't know whether to laugh or cry." It's a military matter. Although the magistrate believes it, General Fengtian might not believe it. Only I can say it."”
Zhang Hanqing felt that it was reasonable. This magistrate was also a sensible person!
However, the magistrate believed that what he said made sense and that his reputation was well known.
When he arrived at Fengtian, his reputation would definitely be useless. He might even be regarded as a demon!
Zhang Hanqing compared the strength of the two countries and explained their current situation clearly. He explained the advantages and disadvantages one by one so that Old Zhang would remember them firmly.
And the source of the information was naturally these Missionaries!
Following that, Chicken Feet Basin had a record of killing, which was the case during the 1894 - 1895 period. Once it happened, the Braid Kingdom would be powerless. At that time, someone would have to take the blame.
……
The next day, Old Zhang sent a sentry to escort the magistrate to Fengtian. They arrived before noon.
After entering the city, Old Zhang naturally came to take care of things. He arranged for the magistrate to have a good meal and rest for a while before heading to Fengtian General's Estate.
When the new magistrate recounted what had happened, his expression changed again and again." You thought of this?”
"No, it's the captain of the cavalry patrol camp under my command, the one who framed Chicken Feet Basin!”
Especially if they really won and occupied Lushun, they might have their eyes on the money and food of the people!
"Did that person follow you here?"
"General's men are here. He's the one who brought people to escort this lowly official here!”
"Call him in and let me take a look!"
Old Zhang was called in and answered fluently, carefully analyzing the situation of the two countries.
"General, my family has hired a few preachers. They are responsible for teaching my son to learn foreign languages.”
The magistrate explained," General, Yuting's son is a famous child prodigy in the new citizens. He has already learned the Analects of Confucius before he is three years old."”
"Really?"
"You're a talent, but how do you learn foreign languages?”
"General, my kid said that the Westerners are powerful, and he won't suffer any losses after learning the foreign language!”
"Haha, you're quite clever!" General Fengtian laughed out loud." You're right this time. Regardless of whether this matter will really happen, we have to take action. We just replied to the chicken feet basin, and now it's time to show them.”
"Daren cares about the people. You're really my role model!”The new magistrate immediately began to flatter him.
Old Zhang saw that this was a true expert!
Therefore, following closely behind, flattery also required skill. Fortunately, Old Zhang did not lack such skills, and General Fengtian was also happy!
However, General Fengtian was happy for a while before he frowned. Old Zhang's heart skipped a beat.
"Chicken Feet Basin seems to have won for sure. Since Da Mao's military supplies can't be supplied, shouldn't we also be on guard?”
The magistrate nodded and said,"General, your concern is correct. Da Mao has lost Lushun, and he won't return the chicken feet basin to us. When the chicken feet basin wins, it won't be honest anymore.”
"Yes, Yuting, I'll call you that too!”
"General, please!"
"You're not bad. If you can stop a disaster this time, you'll definitely have a part to play. When the time comes, you'll naturally benefit!”
"Thank you for your promotion, General!"
"Alright, you guys can go back!"
"Sir, are you resting in Fengtian today?" Old Zhang asked after leaving the General's Mansion.”
"I'm the magistrate, and I can't leave my territory unless I have something to do. This is the rule of the officialdom, you must remember it!”
"Yes, thank you for your advice, sir!"
