In the luxurious conference hall of the building of the Ministry of Industry Bureau of the Hanjiang Concession, dozens of foreign leaders in various concessions of the Hanjiang River gathered together.

It was full of consuls, ministers, officers of the 6 navies, and directors of the Ministry of Works, wearing tuxedos or dazzling military uniforms, three in a bunch, five in a group of five who were discussing.

Although they gathered in a hurry in the middle of the night, these foreigners did not look anxious and urgent, and talked to each other with excellent demeanor.

The servants of the Ministry of Industry also showed a very high professional standard at this time, and all kinds of famous wines, Cuban cigars, black tea from Darjeeling, and coffee from Brazil were sent like water, and if it weren't for the lack of female guests, it would almost make people feel that this was a party.

The mahogany hall door was pushed open. Mr. Leber, the consul of the Gallic chicken in the Han River, and Lord Kent, the consul of John Bull in the Han River, walked in side by side, and all eyes were on them.

"Distinguished gentlemen," said Monsieur Loeb, "I apologize most sincerely, as the host of this place and the initiator of the meeting, for our esteemed colleague, Lord Kent, the most able diplomat in Great Britain, who has been running out and coming a little late, and who has waited a little longer. ”

Someone in the crowd shouted, "I hope the time we have been waiting for will be made more valuable by Lord Kent's travels, and it seems that time flies slowly for three hours here without seeing a beautiful lady or a noble lady!" ”

There was some good-natured laughter from the crowd. With John Bull's cold look, Kent removed the top hat from his head and nodded slightly to the crowd.

He also said in French: "Distinguished colleagues and gentlemen, what happened tonight on the Han River, I am sure you have all seen it, there is an uprising here... Of course, the uprising came a little earlier than we expected, and the leader was not what we expected. ”

Mao Xiong's consul in Hanjiang smiled coarsely and said: "Those people think about themselves, or whether it is a civil war or not, it is not the business of many gentlemen here, we just need to protect our own expatriates and maintain the safety of the concession." In fact, to be honest, our government and I personally still like the Tatar court that is now in power. ”

Kent looked at Consul Bear with some disgust, his white navy uniform and gray beard like horsehair, and did not pay attention to him, but continued to speak to everyone.

"Unlike these barbaric and irrational Orientals, all of us here are elite and noble civilized people of all countries. There are some things that you can say frankly and honestly, and we have no intention of fighting with these Orientals themselves, but the interests of our countries in the big dry areas must be ensured! This is how we people, on taxpayers' salaries, work in the dirty East in this part of the Far East. Bad weather here, and the incompetent government on the other side... endure all this, and the work that must be done. Some gentlemen may say that their interests in Daqian are not so obvious, but our interests in the Yangtze River are huge. As a civilized country as a whole, the interests of the country must also be ensured! ”

He put down his cane, his tone still flat, and it was very difficult to expect a John Bull to get excited.

"I ran outside for three hours, and I met a few friends of the Great Qian, and finally determined that the rule of the Great Qian Empire, which we had been dealing with, had been completely overthrown on the Han River. The officials of Hanjiang City in Hubei Province have taken refuge in various concessions, and in their place is a young soldier named Wang Feng, whom we have never heard of. ”

Leber interjected, "I can honestly tell you here that Mr. Kent and I have already made contact with the leading figures who are expected to launch an uprising on the Han River. They should be quite civilized figures among the Qianguo people, and they have made a clear commitment to ensuring the interests of our countries in the Great Qian! But what happened tonight, the protagonist is not them. ”

It turned out that it was Jiang Lingwu who was in contact with them, and he not only promised to continue to maintain all the interests of various countries on the Han River, but even promised to expand the concession and increase the rights and interests of various countries on the Yangtze River, and so on, making indiscriminate concessions. In exchange for a promise to consider the countries and recognize the rebels as a belligerent group.

Among them, Leber was the most enthusiastic, and privately promised to give Jiang Lingwu a loan to support, hoping to make a piece of the Yangtze River in the hands of the John Bull family.

No matter how many sides try to make their own calculations, they have always reached a deal, and all countries will take a neutral view of the natural changes that will occur within the big cadres.

But now all this has changed, and it is a young officer who is not well known as the governor of Hangang.

Kent said: "This Governor Wang Fengdu, in one night, has occupied the Hanjiang Customs Road, the Hanjiang Manufacturing Bureau, the official office of Hanjiang City County, the Hanjiang Police Headquarters in Nanshi, the Beishi Patrol Police Bureau, the Hanjiang Mint, the Tongyuan Bureau and so on. According to our friend's preliminary estimates, he had about a thousand to fifteen hundred trained soldiers, and had been replenished with munitions from the Manufacturing Bureau. Now in the city of the Han River, the newspapers in the concession are rushing to print and announce the establishment of the Han River Military Government with Wang Feng as the governor! The people of Hangang City seem to be happy to see the result, setting off firecrackers and cheering aimlessly in the streets as if they were celebrating the New Year. ”

He tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled almost invisibly: "Even in the concessions of our countries, you should see a lot of big cadres celebrating all the way over, right?" ”

He stood up and saluted: "That's all I have gotten, and I've told you all of it here without reservation." I know that you are also anxious to go back and report to your respective governments about the changes that have taken place here. I and Mr. Leber also need to do the same, and Mr. Zhu Erdian, the minister of Qianjing, is also waiting for my report. If you do not object, we will meet here again at seven o'clock in the afternoon of the 28th, when you should have a complete solution to this matter, and what do you have any opinions? ”

By the time these foreigners left the building of the Ministry of Industry, the sky had slowly brightened, and the long night had finally passed completely.

If Wang Feng listened here, he would definitely be surprised that the intelligence ability of the foreigners was so strong, and he even knew the size of his army clearly.

Now that foreigners know Wang Feng's shortcomings, it is impossible for Wang Feng not to know, he has a system behind him, and there are points that can be exchanged for cyborgs, and when he was converted here by the system, he directly notified several of his special combat teams through the system to come over to help him.

Now they're in place!

Among them is the dog-headed veteran special combat team ̄Wolf Tooth Special Combat Team. There is also the "Sky Shadow" special task force, and the "Fox Shadow" spy team that is good at stealth makeup.
