When Li Zhen heard Rankfort's words, he immediately laughed.

Unexpectedly, the French commander Frankfurt actually ran in front of him as a lobbyist, and he said that he was really playing a big knife in front of the closed door! Li Zhen thought about it in his heart and already had a plan. He leaned forward slightly, and said, "Your Excellency Rankfort is very serious, I'm afraid he is scaring me!" ”

"Scare?"

Rankfort sneered in his heart, but said seriously: "I vouch for my personality, it is absolutely true." ”

Li Zhen took the initiative to ask, but Rankfurt was even more excited.

The more this is the case, the more it shows that Li Zhen is interested.

He deliberately said things related to Li Zhen's safety, and his purpose was to attract Li Zhen's attention. Before coming, Rankfort was already thinking about how to persuade Li Zhen, if it was an ordinary statement, after seeing Li Zhen, he must have said directly: "***, you should withdraw from the army, everyone is good if you retire." But can Li Zhen agree with such a statement? Apparently impossible.

Therefore, Rankfurt came up and said something heavy.

Li Zhen cooperated and asked, "Please continue to speak!" Where am I in danger? ”

Frankfurt sat down, his waist straightened, and he said loudly: "The great president insists on forming Vietnam in your way, and this is the root of the problem." ”

The corners of Li Zhen's mouth rose, secretly disdainful.

Directly say the ultimate goal, there is no level at all, convince a fart! Li Zhen's expression was seen by Rankefurt, and Rankfort continued: "President, you listen to me slowly. What I'm saying is really for your safety. ”

"At present, the troops of the Eight-Nation Alliance have landed in Vietnam and are heading towards Phu Xuan City. Perhaps, the great president will think that the armies of the eight countries are going to attack Fuchun City, and the great president will also think that Fuchun City has your troops stationed in it, and the armies of the eight countries will not be able to defeat you. If the president thinks so, he is very wrong, and he is very wrong. That's not what I'm talking about. ”

Rankfurt said solemnly.

Li Zhen said briefly: "Go on!" ”

Rankfurt raised his voice again and said loudly: "The Eight-Nation Alliance has already made a plan, if the president really wants to dominate Vietnam, he will not agree with the Eight Nations. Then, the Eight-Nation Coalition will block the way for the President to return to China, and at the same time there will be a landing of the army in China. At that time, there will be war not only in Vietnam, but also in China, which has just stabilized, and the good peace situation will collapse immediately. ”

"Isn't a crisis in China related to the safety of the president? If China exists, the president will survive; If China dies, the president dies. If the president insists on going his own way, the final outcome is difficult to predict. ”

With a sincere expression on his face, Rankfort said with a smile: "As long as the president does not block the formation of the Vietnamese government by the eight countries, everything I just said will not be a problem." And, in the end, we will still form a Vietnamese government in the name of the Nine Nations. For the president, there is nothing to lose. For the nine countries, it is also a happy situation. What do you say, big president? ”

At this moment, Rankfurt feels that he has the potential to be a lobbyist.

These words are directed at the bull's-eye!

Li Zhen laughed when he heard this, and this laughter made Rankfort feel like he had been poured a basin of cold water, and he didn't know why.

In an instant, the pride disappeared.

Rankfort smiled and asked, "President, why are you laughing?" ”

Li Zhen said unhurriedly: "What I laugh at is that Your Excellency only knows alarmism, and when you really talk about it in detail, the threats you mentioned are not a problem. Once the two sides go to war, it will not be our Li Zhen or China that will be affected, but the armies of the Eight Nations. ”

After a pause, Li Zhen said again: "Of course, there is some truth in what Your Excellency said. If China is saved, then I will be Li Zhencun; If China dies, then my Li Zhen's existence will have no value. But if you want to destroy China, it was impossible in the past, it is impossible now, and it will not be possible in the future. China will always stand tall in the world. ”

Rankfurt said coldly: "The president is strong!" ”

Li Zhenyi waved his hand and said, "Please listen to me!" ”

Rankfort had a deferential expression, and he waited for Li Zhen to speak. Rankfurt understood that if Li Zhen was not allowed to finish his words, it would be absolutely impossible to convince Li Zhen, so he first let Li Zhen finish his words, and then refute them one by one, so that Li Zhen could be completely convinced and no longer interfere in the formation of the Vietnamese government.

Li Zhen knew Rankefurt's mind well and did not say anything.

He said unhurriedly: "Your Excellency said that the army that has just landed in Vietnam will not attack Phu Chun, but only want to cut off the way for my army to return to China. Well, let's not talk about whether or not the partition can be successful, let's just say that the eight countries organized another army to attack China. Do you know how many soldiers I brought with me to Vietnam? Your Excellency must have a good idea in your heart, there is only one brigade and more than 3,000 soldiers. ”

"Up to now, there are more than 10,000 people."

"Do you know how many troops there are in China? You certainly don't know. Combat is about knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, and I can't even figure out the situation of my army, what a fart in this battle! If you go, you will die in vain. ”

"To give you a thorough explanation, I have my troops in Guangzhou, Nanjing, Guangxi, Beijing and even the mainland. Moreover, the railway from Nanjing to Guangzhou has been completed, and in the event of a war, Guangzhou and Nanjing can support each other. It would be a big mistake to think that I could attack China at will in Vietnam. ”

"I am not the only one in China, there are Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang, Zhang Zhidong, Li Hongzhang and others. These people, each of whom is a civil and military all-rounder, can fight on horseback, and can fight the world when dismounted. In addition, there are countless civil and military all-rounders. ”

"In the past, the Manchu Emperor ruled China, because of the corruption of the state, it was difficult for capable officials to display their talents, but now the country is clear, and talented people have become officials and serve the country. China's national strength is thriving, and if the eight countries want to attack, I am glad to do so. With the G-8 as a stepping stone, China's influence will be even greater. ”

Li Zhen seemed to be smiling, with a faint smile on his face.

That self-confidence comes from the heart.

As soon as Rankfurt heard Li Zhen's words, the self-confidence in his heart was shattered, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.

It seems, that's true.

Li Zhen glanced at Rankfurt and continued: "Let's get down to business, go back to Vietnam. Can the army formed by the Eight-Nation Alliance hold off my army? Even if I don't participate in the war, I still have Liu Jintang, Lu Shaochuan, Chen Yucheng, and Li Xiucheng under my command, all of whom are elites who have come out of the battlefield. ”

"Let's just say Liu Jintang, this person followed Zuo Zongtang to attack the Qing army, captured Beijing in three or two, and defeated the puppet emperor Yi 60. Later, Liu Jintang accompanied me to the north of Shanghai to make suggestions for me, and won the Russian governor of Eastern Siberia, Muravyov. Then he went south to attack Shi Dakai, and also made great achievements. ”

"Oh, I forgot that Shi Dakai, who is feared by foreigners, is also in China and holds important positions. The rest, such as Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng, all had outstanding military exploits and were experienced commanders. The little troops of the eight countries in Vietnam, to be honest, I really don't care about it, and it is easy to take down the troops of the eight countries. ”

Li Zhen's head rose slightly, with a strong sense of confidence.

Rankfort swallowed, his expression extremely serious, and the look of fear in his eyes.
