[Updated~~ By the way, ask for a ticket]

Qin Kai followed Lu Han straight to the sailor's cabin on the rear deck of the 501 ship, only to see a foreigner tied up like a dumpling and thrown in the corner, with a large cloth ball stuffed in his mouth.

"Lu Han, how did he get on the boat?"

"Supervisor, he took advantage of our time at the port to add coal, replenish food and vegetables, he claimed to be the owner of the food store, and brought a few local natives to deliver food and vegetables on board, and after a while, he disappeared, but fortunately, the secret sentry we put kept an eye on him, watched him look around, and hid under the sail of the lifeboat behind him! Arrest him right away!"

"Have you tried it? Did he see any secrets? ”

"I have reviewed it, and I didn't say a word! However, I guess it should be French, and there are many French ships in this Haiphong port! He was under our surveillance when he got on the ship, and he didn't have a chance to enter the cabin! ”

Qin Kai nodded, Lu Han's analysis should be basically correct, the current Vietnam, the most vigilant against foreign forces, is not the extremely mediocre Ruan dynasty, but this foreigner Frenchman.

"Bring it inside, and I ask him a few words?" Qin Kai pointed to the small cabin inside, and the two soldiers immediately put the Frenchman inside, and Qin Kai motioned for them to go out to guard.

He looked at the man coldly, reached out and took the cloth from the man's mouth, and asked in French, "Are you a soldier of the French Far East Navy?" Is the commander of the Far Eastern Navy alone now? Is the military port still begging for a river port? ”

A surprised expression appeared on the Frenchman's face, obviously Qin Kai's understanding of them was much more than he expected, but he just stared at Qin Kai and still didn't say a word.

Qin Kai turned around and walked out of the cabin, and after a while, he turned back, but he was holding a slender iron needle in his hand, and looked at the Frenchman with a sneer, "Oh, forget to tell you, in front of me, there is only a good choice of cooperation, there is absolutely no second one!" Come! Tie him to a pillar and strip off his shirt! ”

Soon, the Frenchman was firmly tied to the steel pillar, Qin Kai stood behind him, looked up and down, picked up the thin needle and gently pierced it into a position in his back, the tingling sensation made his muscles twitch instantly, but immediately the Frenchman felt that the lower half of his body had lost the ability to control it, and his feet trembled involuntarily.

"Tell me about the question in front of me! The needle stays in this position for a minute, or inserts 2 mm inward, and you completely lose your lower body! Think about it, Gao ...... Lou...... Chicken! ”

Even torture did not necessarily make the trained French soldier succumb, but in the face of this punishment that he could not understand, and in the face of the fear of losing the lower half of his body, the French began to tremble involuntarily.

Qin Kai pulled out the long needle, and the Frenchman's control of the lower limbs immediately slowly recovered, but Qin Kai's cold long needle pierced a position below his cervical vertebrae again, and this time the French lost control of the lower half of his body, but all the parts below the neck, and the limbs fell into a spasmodic state because of the momentary weakness of the muscles.

"Of course, if you were a warrior, I would release you, but what you will lose is the control of your limbs and the ability to think in your head...... Don't worry, I will definitely send someone to send you to the French ship and pay enough to let you return to your hometown with honor, and I assure you of this with the glory of the Chinese," Qin Kai said slowly in cold words.

"You're a demon from hell...... "The Frenchman's facial muscles twisted and deformed, roared with his mouth open.

"Really? Are you angels from the temple who have gone to the Far East to preach the Gospel of God? Qin Kai sneered and replied to him, "If that's the case, what if I become a demon against the sky?" Ah, forgot the time...... Well, it's been thirty seconds, 29, 28, 27......"

"The appointment of the commander of the French Far East Navy, Guba, has just been issued, and General Guba will not take office until next month! The military port is indeed seeking a river port in Vietnam! Get rid of your demonic thorn ......," the soldier cried out in despair.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Second Lieutenant Fall, and we're part of the Far East Marine Corps!"

"How many troops do you have? How many land forces are there in the Far East! ”

"This ...... I don't really know the specific information, but since the end of last year, the country is increasing troops to Vietnam, and the army has at least 20,000 troops in Cochinchina! ”

"Who is the current Prime Minister of France?" ,

"The previous Sarko cabinet just fell a month ago because of the bribery scandal, and I heard that the head of the Republican Party, Jouferi, is participating in the formation of a cabinet, and the exact news has not yet reached the Far East!" After saying this, Farr was already in prostration, and he didn't notice that Qin Kai behind him seemed to have stopped interrogating him.

After a long while, Qin Kai's cold voice came again, "Very good, Second Lieutenant Farr!" But I'm sorry to tell you, for you France, I'm a demon from hell! Punish you sinners in the cloak of angels! The iron needle stabbed into the Frenchman's body...... In an instant, the French nerve link was completely broken.

Qin Kai quickly summoned all the senior officers under his command, and history did take some changes that he did not understand, if what French Second Lieutenant Fall said was true, the cabinet of Jouferry, who advocated a tough approach to China and military intervention in Vietnam, was about to come to power, but his career in Mawei was just beginning now, and the industrialization process must be rapidly expanded.

At the internal meeting, Qin Kai made an important decision, the troops were divided into three routes, he followed Lu Han's 501 ship to quickly rush back to Mawei and arrange the overall situation, and Wu Jingui, as the director of Mawei Shipping in Haiphong City, presided over this side of affairs, he drew a map of the mineral exploration route of Quang Ninh Province, starting with the small mines in Zhiling County, and striving to eat these small mines in the shortest possible time.

Chi Linh County is actually only the edge of the veins in the north of Vietnam, the mineral is not rich, after the integration of the mines here, the next target is the large coal mine in the Hongji area of Quang Ninh Province, and the nearby iron ore resources are also very rich, coal and iron, is undoubtedly the catalyst of the emerging industrial revolution, and from the mining area to Chi Linh County, Hai Phong City has a river to pass, which greatly facilitates transportation.

And Zhou Ruidong led a force of 50 people to be left behind, once the mine is put into operation, in the face of huge value, it will definitely cause some unnecessary disputes, his tasks are only two, training the new army and protecting the mine, Qin Kai has only two requirements, the new army must be Chinese, training and military discipline are strict, and one qiē expenditure, Wu Jingui is responsible for solving it.

And Zhang Kui led another group of men and horses to follow the 501 ship and set off on the second day, his task was to quickly take over the leased Hejuni and Xian'an, these two places are really small places, according to the information Qin Kai got from Lu Guogong Song Xing, the household registration of the two counties is only 3,000 households...... That's not much bigger than a village.

That night, Qin Kai talked with Zhou Ruidong alone in the house for three full hours, and part of the plan that he was originally going to implement by himself was also handed over to Zhou Ruidong, and Zhou Ruidong was also very shocked by the long-term plan shown by the instructor, which contained too much surprise and too much information that he did not understand, but thinking of the instructor's wisdom and martial arts, he also accepted the task with confidence.

"Ruidong, some of these plans are quite difficult to implement, the premise of you moving the camera and doing something is to ensure the safety of you and this team, understand! The minerals of Quang Ninh Province are our foundation, and this generation is rich in high-quality anthracite and iron-rich ore, which is the lifeline of Mawei Shipyard! ”

"Instructor, don't worry! I'm going to make detailed arrangements and start implementing it tomorrow morning! Zhou Ruidong put his feet together, gave a military salute, and retreated with the draft plan prepared by Qin Kai.

Early the next morning, the French found that the ironclad ship of the Great Qing Kingdom had raised its boilers, and thick black smoke rose from the two chimneys, and when the sun rose, it had already left the port, while the other cargo ship continued to stay in Haiphong City, and quickly began to build a private dock on the other side of the port, which made the French inexplicable for a while.

Sent someone to Yamen to inquire, only to know that this was specially allowed by the king of Vietnam, which was not a treatment that the French did not have, and the French Turk in Haiphong City was extremely angry and recorded this matter, ready to report to the governor of Cochinchina, Lord Lu Mei.

But then, another strange thing happened, a few days ago sent to spy on the ironclad ship of the Navy Second Lieutenant Farr was found by someone next to a stone hill near the port, when found, the second lieutenant was already hungry and delirious, after treatment, the French doctor found that the second lieutenant had completely turned into a waste + fool, only repeating one word - devil, but the cause could not be found, and could only be hastily ended on the grounds of falling rocks. ,

However, Rafal, the officer in charge of the consulate in Haiphong City, never agreed with this judgment, and he personally arranged and arranged the investigation, but this result made him lose face, and he immediately proposed to the consul Turk to monitor the newly arrived Chinese merchant.

Hue Port, which has just stopped for a few days, jumped up again today, and Commander Rudan hurriedly drove two of his own soldiers to the general of Zhendong to deliver a letter, and the ironclad ship of Lord Shangguo Qincha appeared in the port again! He led himself to run to the dock with a group of soldiers beating gongs and drums to greet him in person, which is said to be to thank Lord Shangguo Qincha for showing mercy to his subordinates in the sailor camp last time......

Zhendong General Nguyen Pu Hung was also frightened, his uncle Wang Gang of Vietnam, who loved money as much as his life, was discussing with him how to strengthen his armament in order to fight against the bombardment of the capital some time ago in the future, and he hadn't even begun to think about it, could it be that Lord Chincha heard the wind and denounced him...... Thinking of this, he immediately jumped up, and the concubine who had just accepted on the side saw that the master was going out, and came up to hug her and wanted to be coquettish, but it turned out to be a big slap to greet her.

"Prepare your horses and prepare your horses, the general is going to the port to meet the Shangguo Qincha!"

Naturally, this news quickly spread from the Zhendong General's Mansion to the palace, and the Vietnamese King Nguyen Phuc Dinh, who had just been comfortable for two days, was frightened at that time, and turned around and knocked over the sumptuous wine and food on the table, and suddenly the palace was in a hurry, or the horse Huang Zuoyan next to him reminded him, "Your Majesty, I think I will immediately convene the ministers to discuss this matter!" This Shangguo Qincha is not three-headed and six-armed, and I am just going to meet him when I come back! ”

Huang Zuoyan is the favorite little princess of the king of Vietnam, known as the talented and learned reputation among the Yue people, and is also the champion of the Vietnamese imperial examination that year, originally had been supervising the army in Hanoi, North Vietnam, and was in charge of tens of thousands of troops in the direction of Laos in North Vietnam. This time, the Vietnamese king Nguyen Phuc Dinh also thought that he had supervised the troops for many years, and asked him to come back to help reorganize the soldiers and horses, but he didn't expect that before he started to reorganize the troops, the plague god Chin Cha came again.

After a while, the important ministers of the court came one after another, and when they entered the palace, everyone also heard the rumors, but these people were obviously not as nervous as the king of Vietnam, after all, this Qin Kai was all the ministers of the suzerain, and it was impossible to really destroy Vietnam and establish himself as the king, so the Qing Dynasty would not allow it......

After everyone sat down, Huang Zuoyan spoke first: "Ladies and gentlemen, this time the Shangguo Qincha bombarded our city tower, it is really a great shame for our Vietnamese country, today this Qin Kai came by ironclad ship again, the so-called people who come are not good, and those who are good do not come, we should deal with it as soon as possible!" ”

With his own son-in-law waving the flag and shouting beside him, Ruan Fuying seemed to have regained some confidence, but he was not so strong as to say that Cheng Dù, and hurriedly said: "Don't talk about it anymore, let's talk about how to deal with it this time!" ”

Lu Guogong Song Xing was also quite strange about Qin Kai going and coming back, and after thinking about it, he thought of the key to it, and he arched his hand sideways and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of the last time has been over, and we have promised him a lot of benefits, so it stands to reason that he should be busy going to Haiphong to compete with the French for minerals and business." Therefore, I expected that when Qin Kai came this time, there must be a serious change! ”

Several old ministers nodded in agreement with Song Xing's judgment, and the old prime minister Wu had already half continued: "Your Majesty, this time Qin Kai is coming, Your Majesty should urge him to deliver the guns and artillery promised to the Wa Kingdom as soon as possible, this is the content of the previous agreement!" ”

"Exactly! Precisely! After having foreign guns and artillery, I can have 20,000 foot soldiers in Hue to ensure the safety of the capital! The old ministers all talked about this in unison, and they naturally understood that it was definitely difficult to ask the tiger to borrow his teeth, but compared to this matter, this horse master had to work against the bullish Shangguo Qincha, which was definitely a big disaster! The old guys all crackled their calculations.

Ruan Phuc Dinh also felt that it made sense when he heard it, and first tried to find a way to get foreign guns and foreign cannons, but he had heard that the general of Zhendong Ruan Pu Xing had already said that the foreign guns held by the soldiers of the Shangguo Qin Messenger were even more powerful than the French ones. In that case, even if the weapons are poor, after their own pro-army is armed, they can compete with the French.

When everyone was discussing how to snatch the foreign guns and cannons out of Qin Kai's tiger's mouth, someone outside reported that the Zhendong general Ruan Puxing had rushed back from the dock to the outside of the palace. ,

When Ruan Fuying heard this, he was quite satisfied in his heart, his nephew Ruan Puxing was very clever, obviously this was to find out the news of Qincha, and immediately summoned Zhendong Hou first, but it confirmed Lu Guogong's guess.

Qin Kai had already arrived outside the palace at this time, and when the king of Vietnam heard that he was not here to make trouble for himself, he hurriedly ordered several old ministers to go out to greet him, and he was also demoted to greet him, among the people, only the concubine Huang Zuoyan watched coldly, obviously he did not have a good impression of this Shangguo Qincha!

It's just that the first sentence of the meeting, Qin Kai startled the king of Vietnam.

"Your Majesty, I hurried back to have bad news to tell you, and I received definite news from the French merchants and my German friends that the French had drawn up a plan for the destruction of Cochinchina in the Far East, one route from Laos to send troops across the Hejing Pass to attack Shanxi and seize Hanoi, and one route to threaten Hue by sea march! There is only one purpose, to annex Vietnam! ”

As soon as he heard Qin Kai's news, the Vietnamese ministers in the hall all showed panic, and even Huang Zuoyan, who had a disdainful look on his face just now, also had a sudden change in his face, he was sitting in Hanoi, North Vietnam, and naturally understood the offensive line that Qin Kai said. There are a lot of steamships in the French, and it is easy to break through Vietnam's weak defenses outside the mountain pass by going upstream, and the ability of the Vietnamese defenders, he is very clear, Hanoi claims to have 10,000 defenders, and Shanxi has 3,000 defenders, but only 2,000 soldiers can fight, and the rest are local villagers.

Lu Guogong Song Xing glanced at Qin Kai, this news is indeed too shocking, how could this Qin Cha, who had been running away for a few days, know about such a confidential matter? However, now is obviously not the time to study this issue, and it is clear that his position on this matter will determine the direction of his family in the future.

Since France wants to send troops to Vietnam, with the strength of Vietnam, it is absolutely impossible to fight against this so-called second power in the world, and the Qing Dynasty, as the suzerain, is bound to send troops to protect it, and this Lord Qin, looking at this posture, seems to be intervening in it, and his strength, judging by Song Xing's vision, can only be judged by four words - unfathomable.

He opened his mouth first and asked, "Lord Qin, how sure is this news!" If it's a false alarm......"

"100% sure!" Qin Kai swore to this point.

Now everyone is even more confused, this battle seems to have to be fought, the most panicked in this fight is the Vietnamese king Nguyen Phuc Dinh, he looked at the Chenglong fast son-in-law next to him, at this time the horse master was also in contemplation, did not notice the old man's eyes.

"Lord Qin, I don't know what you mentioned?" Ruan Fuying thought about it, he couldn't handle this matter anyway, let's see what the Shangguo Qin Mission could do, and if it doesn't work, ask the suzeraint country for help, this will not be cheap! Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Kai at once.

"The French Army was known as the first in Europe ten years ago, but it was defeated by the German Army nine years ago, and the nine years after the war can be described as a fierce army, trying to avenge the shame, as far as I know, the French Navy ranks second among the Tessian powers, and this army, nine years of strength is better than before! And I heard that the new commander of the Far Eastern Army, Gu Ba, is a rare general in the French army! ”

The Vietnamese people were sweating when they heard this, and the old ministers below were even more confused. Say the French like the god of war...... And the horse master, who was originally quite hostile to Qin Kai, was also full of sweat at this time!

Ruan Phuc Dien's eyes were glazed, and he squeezed his throat for a long time and said: "Lord Qin, is it possible that our country of Vietnam is about to be destroyed!" ”

Qin Kai saw that the prelude also achieved the effect, "Your Majesty, that may not be!" Don't forget, there is a 5,000-year-old power behind you to rely on, and I have two strategies to keep Vietnam worry-free! ”
