"Zhai, what is Zhaijiao?" Governor Yang sat in the luxurious living room of the Nautilus, and asked inexplicably while enjoying the coolness of the air conditioner.

Of course, he wouldn't go to work in the hot and humid Governor's Yamen, a place that smelled of decay, and the yacht was his governor's yamen before the Fuzhou power plant was built and the city was powered. Just now, the British Consul General in Fuzhou came running with a look of impatience and told him that a group of Zhaijiao bandits were preparing to attack Gutian County, and it was said that now the big swords and spears were ready, and a group of British missionaries with a sense of justice who were taking refuge in the summer near Gutian came to inform him at the risk of death, hoping that His Excellency the Governor would make preparations as soon as possible.

"Zhaijiao should be regarded as a very ancient sect, it is also somewhat related to the White Lotus Sect, the leader of the Gutian Zhai Sect is called Liu Xiangxing, these years it has been claimed that eating fasting and reciting Buddhism and believing in its religion can quit opium, so it is very popular among the people, believers are said to be more than 3,000 people, occupying a high mountain called Kunshan Bun to fight against the official, to put it bluntly, it is half a bandit and half a religion, they make trouble very commonly, and they encourage the people to resist rent and tax, there is nothing to make a fuss about, to say that they can fight Gutian County is pure joke.

It is estimated that those missionaries wanted to borrow knives to kill people, and their missionary work in Gutian was always not going well because of the obstacle of fasting, and although the two sides did not have any contradictions, it was still very common for them to stumble with each other. Xue Fucheng said very indifferently.

In this case, Yang Feng didn't take this seriously, and let Song Qing arrange a battalion to suppress it, now how many big things he has to deal with, how can he still be in the mood to care about these trivial things, in fact, he rarely asks about the government affairs of the three provinces under his jurisdiction, and all of them are handed over to Xue Fucheng to be responsible, if it weren't for the British consul looking for him today, it is estimated that this guy would not even bother to ask.

Japan and Russia also fought a bloody battle in northern Japan, after receiving the support of Aritomo Yamagu. Although the Japanese army on the front line are now the elite of the First Sino-Japanese War, but after all, the strength is limited, and because the main two arsenals that can produce modern artillery have been destroyed by Yang Feng, so there is a serious shortage of artillery, and their opponents are not at the same level as the Qing army, so the Japanese army fought very hard, and so far there have been more than 10,000 casualties in Morioka alone.

The Russians were no less killed or wounded than they were, but it was clear that Nikolai did not care about the death and wounding of the gray animals. Another 100,000 people have already arrived in Vladivostok, and it is estimated that they do not know where they are going to land on the coast of Japan, and the tragedy of this country is that their coastline is so vast that as long as there is no navy, the enemy can play with them as much as he wants.

As for Ito Henyoke and his combined fleet, they attacked the Russian transport lines several times and sank two cargo ships, but unfortunately they were also targeted by the Russian Far East Fleet, and the poor Hashidate was directly bombarded into slag by Alexander II with six 305 guns. Ito Henyou, with the remaining warships, fought to the death to escape, and now he is hiding in Kure Harbor and does not dare to go out, and the two Russian battleships with ten cruisers are blocking the outside of Shimonoseki, and even Shimonoseki Castle has been shelled.

The reception of Minami-Kyushu by the Germans was also not smooth. The little black carbons of the Satsuma Domain are too difficult to handle, and although they are poorly equipped, they are better than they are familiar with the terrain, especially the mountainous and forested place. Having wisely abandoned the city, these samurai, imbued with hatred for the invaders, would burst out of the mountains and forests every day to launch attacks of varying scales. The fox's head is almost big, although it did not cause too many casualties to the German army, but if it goes on like this, how can they still engage in base construction?

"Yang, Your Excellency Earl would like to buy a batch of flamethrowers and gas bombs from you, and we have consulted with Bofors, and they say that these two weapons must be approved by you before they can be sold." Tirpitz said as he sipped a cold glass of wine.

This time he was taking the fleet to Mawei for maintenance, and although Li Hongzhang was willing to provide them with similar services, it was clear that the Germans believed in Yang Feng more.

"There's nothing wrong with this, it's just a trivial matter, there is still a batch of stocks in the port of Dagou, anyway, I don't need it for the time being, you can send a ship over to load it yourself, and if you need direct military help, just ask." Boss Yang Feng said very generously that this thing is actually very popular with all European countries, including Germany, but they have to buy it together with the production technology, and this product is being priced on the grounds of mercy.

"His Majesty the Emperor, I heard that you are planning to build a large naval base in Dinghai and expand the shipyard in Mawei, and I want to tell you that if you need help, the German government will be happy to help." Tirpitz said that the cooperation with Yang Feng is very pleasant, and since Yang Feng is going to engage in construction, William naturally does not mind taking this opportunity to get closer to Yang Feng.

In fact, at this time, this guy's wolf ambitions have already been revealed, and if the outside world has not seen his greed for his homeland by now, then European politicians will be too slow to react.

The joy is that if Yang Feng wins the world of China, they can face a civilized country that meets Western standards, and the worry is that judging from this guy's character, this country is likely to be extremely aggressive.

But the easiest thing in this is Germany, they have nothing to worry about in Asia, even if China is extremely aggressive in the future, it will not be able to attack them, so William very much hopes that Asia will have an extra rising-stirring stick.

"Of course you are welcome, the construction of your fortress is very impressive to me, so I will let JY contact your country as soon as possible in Europe." Yang Feng said with a smile, of course he is very welcome if someone is willing to help.

The two of them are talking! Suddenly, the sailors outside came in and reported, saying that Lord Song Qing asked to see him, and the old Song was the governor of Fujian, and now he basically played the role of a police chief, responsible for maintaining law and order, and paying a bandit or something, anyway, he couldn't do anything else at his current age, and he just spent his old age in Fuzhou with a tablet.

"What's the matter, General Zhusan?" Yang Feng saw that his expression was wrong, and asked somewhat suspiciously.

Song Qing hesitated, although he knew Tirpitz, he still didn't know whether to say what happened next.

Tirpitz said hello playfully and went out.

"My lord, the bandits in Gutian made a mess, and before our reinforcements arrived, they attacked Huashan and killed more than a dozen foreigners who were taking refuge there." Lao Song hurriedly said with a nervous face, this is a lesson plan, you must know that as long as it is a lesson plan over the years, it is not good.

"Huh? Didn't they hit Gutian County? Why did you run away and attack the missionaries?" Yang Feng said in amazement.

"The county seat that also played a fart, it is said that at the beginning it gathered hundreds of people, but unfortunately there are dozens of people left after the more and more they go to the bottom, and it is estimated that they also think that it is too much of a joke to hit the county, so they are unwilling to go back to the mountain, so they simply go to the foreigners to get a handful, and they will have a good meal after going back." Song Qing said.

"In this way, then notify the locality, and when our reinforcements arrive, cooperate and directly break their cottage, and then arrest the leader, how to judge and how to judge, this chaotic people as bandits must not be connived." Yang Feng said indifferently.

"My lord, this is a lesson plan, and it's very difficult to deal with things involving foreigners!" Song Qing saw that he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly reminded him.

"What's so hard about it? If any foreigner dares to come to me to spread wilderness, isn't it just a few missionaries who have died? I can ask the Pope to praise them for the sacrifice they have made to spread the Gospel of the Lord, ah, no, they are Anglican, it has nothing to do with the Pope, forget it, I will give a letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury, this old guy still has to give it. Yang Feng said with a smile.

Song Qing also reacted, he was purely idle, the lesson plan was a big deal in other places, and it was not worth mentioning here in Yang Feng, to put it bluntly, those lesson plans in the past were all foreigners taking the opportunity to blackmail, but what the hell would a foreigner dare to blackmail this uncle?

However, what Yang Feng didn't expect was that the Gutian lesson plan brought him a lot of trouble.

There is no accident in the work of suppressing bandits, a battalion of new troops armed to the teeth drove over, and they didn't even fire their guns but just released a platoon of guns, and those bandits scattered as birds and beasts, and the dozens of people who participated in the attack on Huashan were all captured alive, and then sent to Fuzhou under Yang Feng's order to be personally interrogated by him, just so that he could live the old man's concealment.

And he also wanted to take advantage of this to introduce a modern trial system, and he acted as a chief judge, indecently found a wig belt, assigned a lawyer to those bandits, found a group of gentry in Fuzhou to make a jury, and invited the consuls of various countries in Fuzhou to come over to observe, as for the original set of things in the yamen were thrown aside, of course, according to the law or Chinese law, those lawyers under him even had to raid the study of Chinese law, in fact, there is nothing to study in this thing, killing people pays for life, it is justified, Rebellion and rebellion, death is not a pity, but even so, there are still different punishments according to the degree of the crime, seven of them are hanged, and the remaining more than 20 are from indefinite to indefinite, and there are exiles and the like, anyway, Yang Feng thinks he is very fair.

Including the British, they don't have any opinions, of course, they don't dare to have any opinions, Yang Fengken has already given them enough face to do this, and if he does something else to provoke Yang Feng, then I'm afraid it's not as simple as not giving them face.

However, to Yang Feng's surprise, it was this interrogation method that annoyed him a lot. (To be continued......)
