Wang Ruihe was stunned for a moment and asked, "How do you know?" ”

Lin Fei said with a smile: "Manila is under lockdown, if there is no order from Governor Sanders, how can you come out to see me?" Also, from what you said, I can tell that you are clearly a lobbyist for Governor Sanders, how can I not know? ”

Wang Ruihe's face was solemn, and he sighed: "It is said that Lin Fei's majesty is very smart, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation." ”

Lin Fei turned his face blank and said, "Mr. Wang, you are a lobbyist for Governor Sanders, did they arrest your family and threaten you?" If so, just say it, and I'll find a way to rescue them. ”

Wang Ruihe shook his head and said, "No, I came voluntarily, and I took the initiative to invite Ying." ”

Lin Fei smiled, turned around and pointed at the two attendants and said with a smile: "The two of them are my henchmen, they are very strict-mouthed, and they will never leak the content of our conversation, you don't need to worry, if you still don't trust them, I can let them out......"

Wang Rui and Han interrupted Lin Fei's words with a smile and said, "No, really no, it was completely my intention to come here to see you." ”

Lin Fei let out an "oh", a burst of surprise appeared on his face, and said: "Mr. Wang, you just said that you and I have the same ancestry, you must also want to seek benefits for the majority of Chinese, which coincides with the purpose of our Chinese Empire, I attacked Manila, but also for the well-being of the majority of Chinese compatriots, why do you persuade me not to attack Manila, but also persuade me to lay down my arms and sue for peace with the Spaniards?" ”

Wang Ruihe sighed lightly and said, "Your Majesty, you keep saying that you are working for the benefit of your Chinese compatriots, but you have already killed countless Chinese compatriots, and you will kill more in the future..."

Lin Fei was stunned for a moment and asked, "When did I kill my fellow Chinese?" ”

Wang Ruihe pointed out with his hand and said: "When I came, I passed by the barracks, and happened to meet a carriage, on which there were many boxes, and those boxes were exquisite, densely piled, and I couldn't count them, I didn't know what those boxes were for, so I asked the soldiers who escorted the car, and they told me that those boxes were for the ashes of fallen soldiers." ”

"Those soldiers are all in their twenties, in their prime, and now they have all turned into ashes, if there is no Majesty, I am afraid they will not live in those small boxes, Majesty, were they killed by you?"

At this time, an attendant behind Lin Fei said coldly: "If there is no Majesty, they will not live in a small box, they will live in the slave shack of the Spaniards, work with a leather whip, and after they die, they will not even have a small box." ”

"Shut up..."Lin Feilang shouted angrily, turned back to the attendant and said, "I'm talking to Mr. Wang, why are you interjecting at will?" Rude... Why don't you apologize to Mr. Wang? ”

The attendant said aggrievedly: "That Mr. Wang's words are so unreasonable, I can't help but ......"

Lin Fei's face sank, and he shouted angrily: "Go out..."

The attendant was unwilling, but helpless, and walked outside dejectedly, at this time Wang Ruihe said softly: "Wait." ”

The attendant stopped, Lin Fei looked at Wang Ruihe and asked, "Mr. Wang, what's wrong with you?" ”

Wang Ruihe said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I understand what this squire of yours means, he is saying that because the Spaniards oppressed the Chinese, we should resist and die as we deserve, right?" ”

The attendant raised his head and said stubbornly, "Shouldn't we resist?" ”

Wang Ruihe smiled kindly and said, "I didn't say that you shouldn't resist, it's just that you didn't resist in the right way." ”

The attendant asked, "Then what kind of resistance do you say?" ”

Wang Ruihe put away his smile and said: "Your current resistance is too fierce, we should use gentle methods to resist, such as petitions and appeals, dialogue and consultation, and should not resort to force, just like the Spaniards treat the Chinese as slaves, we have also heard of it, and we often appeal to Spanish officials to give Chinese slaves the status of free men and let them enter society on an equal footing." ”

The attendant said angrily: "You are the richest Chinese businessman, and there is a big family behind you, the Spaniards will give you some face, but what about those helpless Chinese?" ”

The attendant was about to continue, but Lin Fei waved his hand lightly, stopped the attendant, asked him to stand aside, and then looked at Wang Ruihe and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, what do you mean is that I will use the means of dialogue and negotiation to fight for the interests of the Chinese?" ”

Wang Ruihe nodded solemnly and said: "That's right, no one will die in the Chinese Empire, no one will die in the Spaniards, everyone has parents, wives and children, and the dead are always bad." ”

Lin Fei said: "How do you know that our consultation and dialogue can win the interests of the Chinese? You believe in the Spaniards so much? ”

Wang Ruihe replied: "Of course, the Spaniards are polite, kind, and civilized people, and the Qing people are like barbarians who drink blood compared to them, how can such a group of people not be trustworthy?" ”

Lin Fei laughed and said, "You haven't seen the Spaniards who seem to be extremely vicious." ”

Wang Ruihe said with a smile: "Of course I have seen such people, but such people are a minority after all, and most Spaniards are still good." ”

Lin Fei couldn't help but be a little annoyed when he heard this, because in his time, there were also some people in his country who knelt and crawled behind foreigners' butts all day long, everything in foreign countries is good, nothing is good in Huaxia, if anyone dares to say a bad word about their foreign masters, they will attack them in groups, even if those bad words are indisputable facts, they have to try their best to excuse foreign masters, Wang Ruihe in front of them, is one of them.

If Wang Ruihe was a vicious person, or a rooster and dog thief, Lin Fei would be able to scold him fiercely, and even take out a gun and kill him directly, but Wang Ruihe is a good person, and Lin Fei really can't do it.

Although Lin Fei was annoyed, he didn't bring out a trace on his face, Wang Ruihe saw that Lin Fei didn't speak for a while, thinking that Lin Fei was moved by what he said, and then said: "Your Majesty, Governor Sanders has promised that as long as you lay down your arms, you will be given a place in the parliament, and officials from the Huaxia Empire can also enter the council, and we can discuss the specific amount later......

Lin Fei's two attendants were so angry that their faces turned pale, but after being reprimanded twice by Lin Fei, they didn't dare to speak anymore, Lin Fei waved his hand lightly and said: "Mr. Wang Ruihe, don't say it again, I won't agree to these ridiculous conditions, if I really want to reconcile, I only have one condition, and that is ...... The Spaniards in the Philippines all went home. ”

Wang Ruihe heard Lin Fei's anger from Lin Fei's tone, so he had to keep silent, and then his tone changed, and he said worriedly: "Your Majesty, I let you reconcile for your good, although your Huaxia Empire has achieved a temporary victory, but in the long run, you may not be victorious." ”

Lin Fei sneered, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Wang Ruihe sighed and said: "Your Majesty, the Philippines is only one of the Spanish colonies, they also have colonies such as Cuba and Puerto Rico, and there are still many troops in Spain itself. When the time comes, will you be able to resist it? ”

When Lin Fei heard these words, he first laughed, and then laughed out loud, making Wang Ruihe laugh so much that he was ...... Puzzled, he asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, what are you laughing at?" ”

Lin Fei smiled: "You shouldn't know anything about military affairs, right?" ”

Wang Ruihe smiled ashamedly and said: "I have a specialization in the art industry, but military affairs are not my strength. ”

Lin Fei said with a smile: "Then I will tell you plainly, the army of Spain cannot support the Philippines at all... You can calculate how many kilometers there are from Spain to the Philippines, and how much time it will take for the troops from Spain proper? How much food will be consumed during this time, and how much coal will be consumed by the battleship? ”

"The troops are useless just to come over, and they have to carry ammunition, which increases the amount of coal consumed by the battleship, and you can also calculate how much it costs to spend the whole process? Does Spain still have the capacity to afford such a large expense? Even if Spain had the national capacity to afford such an expense, would the domestic political environment allow them to do so? ”

"With a two-party government in Spain and Queen Isabella II of Spain having no real power, can the opposition parties allow the ruling party to allocate such a large amount of money for an expedition?"

Lin Fei took these into account when he locked the Philippines as a development base after escaping from Japan, Spain's national strength was weak and unable to go on expeditions, so Lin Fei would not do anything to conquer the Philippines and Spain, in Lin Fei's era, the Spanish-American War broke out in 1898, and the United States took the original Spanish colonies ...... The Philippines, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Guam were all their own, and the Spaniards were simply not in a position to organize expeditions.

Today, Lin Fei said these words in one breath, and Wang Ruihe was stunned for a while, unable to say a word, Lin Fei smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Wang Ruihe, don't say much, I'm going to organize the troops to continue the attack, if you don't have anything to do, go back first." ”

After Lin Fei finished speaking, he got up to leave, Wang Ruihe's face suddenly changed drastically, his face was full of crying, and he knelt down in front of Lin Fei with a "plop" and cried: "Your Majesty, you won't watch our descendants of Yan and Huang kill each other, right?" ”

Lin Fei was dazed for a moment and asked, "The descendants of Yan and Huang are fratricidal?" What does this mean? ”

Wang Ruihe cried and said: "The troops in the third line of defense of the Spaniards are composed of Chinese, if you continue to attack, it will be a killing of lips and teeth, fratricide..."

Lin Fei frowned, and said in shock: "There is such a thing? ”

Wang Ruihe nodded again and again, and said: "What the old man said is true, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to the front of the third line of defense to investigate." ”
