Do you know: I have a different surname: Wang, uncle Minglan.

Chapter 204: Great power diplomacy should be magnanimous
For the men who have lived on this land for generations.

The most tempting points are nothing more than being ordered by heaven, being granted the title of son-in-law, being named on the golden list, bravely championing the three armies, being powerful in China, leaving a name in history, honoring the ancestors, etc.

Among them, Guangzong Yaozu is probably second only to Yu Tian.

Especially the people on Fujian Road have deep-rooted ideas about clan.

If you could record your heroic deeds of killing Japanese in your family tree
Just think about it!

In an instant, the eyes of all the navy officers were filled with excitement, as if they wished they could go out to sea and kill the Japanese right now!
Suddenly, an unknown person raised the weapon in his hand high and shouted: "Kill the Japanese!"

In an instant, all the soldiers followed suit, and the words "kill the Japanese" shook the world.

I do not know how long it has been.

Wei Yuan made a gesture, and suddenly, the navy soldiers fell silent one after another.

He shouted loudly: "Good boys, do your best to kill the Japanese bandits!"

Fortunately, all parties are working hard to suppress this matter, hoping that shipping will be affected before nothing is obtained from shipping.

Afterwards, Hu Yanzhong waved the command flag, and the navy officers and soldiers saw the flag and began to prepare to go to sea to kill the Japanese.

Since the matter occurred within the territory of Dazhou, if Dazhou did not get involved, it would probably affect Dazhou's prestige among overseas countries.

As it should be?

"The Persian envoy made random accusations and wanted to undermine the maritime alliance between various countries. It is really a wolfish ambition!"

Everyone says that Wei Yuan could not be where he is today without Zhang Fu.

When Chen Daniu heard what Cai Xiang said, he nodded slightly, looked at Ping Zhongsheng, and said with an unhappy expression:
"We, the newly built navy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, have gone to sea to kill Japanese pirates. If we encounter Japanese pirates, they are all Japanese pirates. I am afraid that the face of your Japanese country will not be saved!"

"However, those naval officers still regard him as their commander-in-chief and are willing to follow him."

"Wei Yuan. If he had been born in troubled times, I'm afraid his achievements would be much more than this."

Fujian Road Transfer Department Yamen.

Beside him, there was an official accompanying him, who said in confusion:
"General Wei is recruiting pacifiers for the southeast. Shouldn't it be natural for the navy to obey him?"

When he looked at the general beside Cai Xiang, he was only surprised for a moment, but he didn't think much about it.

"But if it continues to be delayed, I am afraid that the Persian envoy will leak the overseas distress and affect the shipping plan."

If this matter is not handled properly, it may cause a war between Persia and Japan.

In the prosperous age, he could go from being an ordinary person from a farming family to being a knight now.

Dazhou is even less likely to plead guilty.

"The Persian envoy wants compensation, otherwise the alliance with our country and the North Korean shipping alliance will be suspended."

Even in troubled times, great achievements will be made, even far beyond today's achievements.

When the Persian envoy saw the Japanese envoy Ping Zhongsheng, he immediately groaned to express his dissatisfaction.

not far away.

"The Japanese envoys are unwilling to acknowledge this matter. Otherwise, if Japanese pirates attack ships from other countries in the future, the Japanese will be held responsible."

"They didn't dare to ask for compensation from me, the Great Zhou Dynasty, so they simply targeted the Japanese country."

Fan Chunren smiled and said, "Believe it or not, even if Wei Yuan is not in the southeast, he is on the border, somewhere in my territory of Great Zhou."

"And the Japanese country is the first country to sign a shipping trade contract with our country. If there is a stalemate, it will not look good on everyone."

"There were no Japanese pirates in the sea area of ​​Dazhou originally. They have only appeared in the past ten years, and they are all Japanese. Who doesn't know what your plans are?!"

He has been familiar with various classics of the Zhou Dynasty since he was a child, and has a good understanding of the culture of this land.

By then, the implementation of the national maritime policy will inevitably be hindered.

"That's where the trouble lies."

It took about two quarters of an hour before both parties arrived one after another.

When the Persian envoy heard this, he immediately stood up and shouted angrily:
"Bah! Shameless!"

"With his reputation, he can instantly pull out an army of tigers and wolves."

Fan Chunren watched this scene quietly and murmured:
"Wei Yuan has never personally organized and trained the navy. The general named Hu Yan has always been in charge of the training."

Cai Xiang couldn't help but frown deeply as she listened to the quarrel between the two sides, and whispered to Chen Daniu quietly:

"Not all the thieves on your country's sea are from our country."

Ping Zhongsheng didn't even look at him, and said nonchalantly: "You are talking nonsense, trying to sow discord between our country of Japan and the country of Shang."

Ping Zhongsheng looked at Cai Xiang, cupped his hands and said, "Envoy Cai Zhuan, I think this matter does not need to be discussed further."

But if Wei Yuan had nothing worth cultivating, how could he be reused by Zhang Fu?
afternoon.

Since there are translators on hand, there is no obstacle to communication between envoys from various countries.

"Japanese pirates, Japanese pirates, isn't it you Japanese who are causing trouble, or who is it?"

He never believed that times make heroes.

Cai Xiang and Chen Daniu waited quietly for the envoys from Japan and Persia to arrive.

Ping Zhongsheng said: "This general looks familiar, I don't know how to call him?"

He had seen Wei Yuan by his side.

Chen Daniu said: "Chen Yuanzhi, the commander of the Hu Ben Army!"

Tiger army?
Hearing these three words, Ping Zhongsheng's expression changed.

Ziweiyuan led troops to the southeast. It is said that the officers and soldiers of the Huben Army must be the first in every battle and must be victorious in every battle, and the price they pay is extremely small.

Nowadays, even among the people, there are various rumors about the Tiger Army.

It is said that this army is the elite of the elite.

Unexpectedly, this army is in the hands of this person.

"General Chen, you are a military general. You may have questions about various things here."

"Although we, the Japanese nation, are responsible for disturbing the safety of your country's waters, this matter is definitely not the result we want."

"Most of those Japanese people who became Japanese pirates were refugee bandits who escaped from our Japanese country."

"It is difficult for us, Japan, to solve this problem, so we can only seek help from your country."

It is not difficult to understand what Ping Zhongsheng said, that is, he is passing the blame. Anyway, he just refuses to admit it. The fact that there are Japanese pirates now has something to do with the Japanese country.

Chen Daniu laughed angrily and said: "Since you think that the Japanese pirates have nothing to do with your country, from now on, if the merchant ships of the Japanese country are disturbed by Japanese pirates, you can't blame me, Dazhou."

The Japanese pirates who showed off their power in the waters of Dazhou would definitely not attack Japanese ships.

But when Chen Daniu said that, his meaning was very clear.

Just because Japanese pirates don't know how to do it doesn't mean that Dazhou doesn't know how to do it.

Whatever losses the Persian envoy suffered, you Japanese country will suffer the same losses as usual.

Cai Xiang was surprised when he heard what Chen Daniu said.

Shouldn't we show the magnanimity of a great country?

Is such a blatant threat serious?

Ping Zhongsheng gritted his teeth, "General, what do you mean?"

Suddenly, Chen Daniu slammed the table so hard that the corners of the table were broken.

"I'll talk to you nicely, and you'll listen nicely!"

"If you don't want to listen well, I won't bother to waste my time and let's fight!"

Let's fight. Let's fight?

Cai Xiang's eyes widened.

The Persian envoy looked like he was watching a good show.

Ping Zhongsheng's face was uncertain and he didn't know how to respond.

Just as Cai Xiang was about to say something, Chen Daniu continued: "Don't pretend to be dumb, fight a war, or compensate the Persian envoy for the loss, your choice!"

Cai Xiang's heart trembled. It would be bad if Japan broke off diplomatic relations with Zhou Dynasty and Datian listened to the matter!

"General Chen, do you want to take a long-term approach to this matter?"

He spoke tentatively and wanted to continue, but was interrupted by Chen Daniu.

"Don't talk!"

Cai Xiang looked embarrassed.

Ping Zhongsheng said with a solemn expression: "I heard the general's intention, is he going to declare war with our country?"

Chen Daniu laughed twice and said: "Declaration of war? Just your Japanese country? You are worthy of it!"

"Don't think that I don't know that you came to Dazhou not for sea transportation, but to take advantage of the opportunity of sea transportation to purchase a batch of weapons from me, Dazhou."

"I haven't read many books, and I am a rough man, but I also know the story of Cao Cao and Sima Yi. Whether you want to be Cao Cao or Sima Yi has nothing to do with me, Da Zhou."

"But you want to use me, the Great Zhou Dynasty, to strengthen your power in Japan, that's fine!"

"The premise is that within the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you have to be a dragon coiled up and a tiger lying down."

At this point, he changed the topic and said sternly: "It's a dog, it must be able to wag its tail and bark twice."

"Don't act so arrogant like me, you are not worthy!"

Ping Zhongsheng was so humiliated, how could he not be angry?

But he also knew that if he wanted to prevent any problems with those weapons, he could only rely on the Danglu Army.

Otherwise, the Japanese pirates would not disturb those weapons, but what about the rogue army?
He had heard Chen Daniu's threat just now.

This is why Wei Yuan chose Chen Daniu to mediate the conflict between the two countries.

Don't want to admit your mistake? Yes, the Danglu Army will not guarantee that the weapons will go to sea safely.

At this moment, how could Ping Zhongsheng not know that Chen Daniu's attitude was Wei Yuan's?

After thinking again and again, Ping Zhongsheng took a deep breath, looked at the Persian envoy, and said angrily:
"We, the Japanese Congress, will give you an explanation for your envoy's loss!"

After saying this, he cupped his hands towards Cai Xiang and Chen Daniu, wanting to leave.

When Chen Daniu saw this, he frowned and said, "Did I let you go?"

Ping Zhongsheng frowned deeply, his face was extremely ugly and contained anger.

Chen Daniu was not afraid at all. He even chuckled twice and said, "Speak well."

Ping Zhongsheng took another deep breath, suppressed the anger in his chest, pretended to be respectful and bowed: "The envoy leaves."

Chen Daniu knocked on the undamaged tabletop and said, "Your Majesty."

Ping Zhongsheng gritted his teeth and said: "General Chen, I am sending you my envoy to retire."

Chen Daniu said again: "Kowtow!"

Ping Zhongsheng couldn't help it, "You!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Daniu suddenly stood up and slammed the table again.

For a moment, the entire wooden table fell apart.

Seeing this, Ping Zhongsheng was extremely afraid, so he had to bow deeply.
"Kowtow to General Chen, I'm sending you my envoy to retire."

Chen Daniu then smiled, sat on the chair again, waved his hand gently, "Go ahead."

Ping Zhongsheng left without looking back.

Seeing this scene, Cai Xiang was dumbfounded.

He is truly a tiger general!

Between words and deeds, the Japanese envoy lost any temper.

Now that things have come to an end, the Persian envoy also wants to leave.

Chen Daniu said with a solemn expression: "Let you go?"

The Persian envoy frowned and said, "General Chen, what do you mean?"

Chen Daniu snorted coldly and said: "Nowadays, the top priority of our Great Zhou is shipping. Anyone who dares to sabotage shipping or dare to publicize certain things will threaten our Great Zhou."

"I, Da Zhou, will fight until death! You, think about what to do!"

The Persian envoy was confused.

Meetings with envoys from various countries are not just once or twice.

He has even been in contact with some high-level figures in Dazhou.

But there is no one like General Chen in front of me!
After a pause, the Persian envoy also bowed deeply and said: "I understand, I understand!"

After the envoys from both countries have left here.

Cai Xiangcai was surprised and said: "General Chen, Fujian Road is close to the sea. When envoys from overseas countries come to pay homage to His Majesty, most of them pass by Fujian Road."

"Therefore, I have seen many messengers and talked with them, but I have never been able to scare them with just a few words like you."

Chen Daniu chuckled and said: "Last time I met with Commander Wei at Manxiang Tower to meet with envoys from overseas countries. Afterwards, Commander Wei told me that the diplomacy of a big country requires magnanimity."

"Do you know what grace is?"

Cai Xiang tentatively asked: "Are you trying to show your magnanimity as a high-ranking member of the Celestial Empire?"

Chen Daniu shook his head, "The so-called magnanimity means that when negotiating, as long as you don't take action, you are magnanimous. As long as you don't kill people, you are magnanimous."

"The rest is up to you as much as you like."

Cai Xiang was stunned. As long as he doesn't take action, is he elegant? Is it a measure not to kill people?
Is this magnanimity?
Is this what I learned from the books I read since I was young about being generous?

Cai Xiang fell into deep self-doubt.
-
After Wei Yuan returned to Fuzhou.

Minglan, Molan, Pinlan, Rulan and others also followed Mrs. Sheng and Mrs. Eldest to visit Suzhou.

As for Sheng Changbai, he went to visit some great scholars from various places, and Sheng Changfeng followed him.

When the Shengjia team arrived in Suzhou.

An official from Suzhou is waiting outside the city.

Suddenly I saw a fleet of boats with the word "Sheng" written on them approaching.

He immediately went up to meet her in person and asked, "The person sitting in the carriage is Ms. Shengming Lansheng, Uncle Zhongyong's niece?"

In a carriage headed by the Sheng family's motorcade, Minglan and Mrs. Sheng were sitting.

The two of them were quite curious when they heard the noise outside.

But it is not easy for women to show their faces, so Sheng Wei personally trotted forward to greet him. When he saw the official uniform of the person who came to greet him, he immediately did not dare to be careless and bowed respectfully:
"I don't know who you are, sir."

Sheng Wei had rarely seen such a battle before, and was a little frightened at the moment.

The official in Suzhou smiled and said, "I am here to welcome Uncle Zhongyong's niece into the city on the order of the King of Wu."

"All of Miss Minglan's expenses in Suzhou City will be borne by the palace."

"Your residence has been arranged by the prince and his family."

"please."

King Wu personally arranged it?

Just to make Wei Yuan's niece happy?
this.
Uncle Zhongyong is indeed capable of reaching heaven and earth!
Sheng Minglan, who was sitting in the car, heard that she was worried about causing trouble for her uncle, so she simply responded in the car:
"Sir, the daughter of the common people is just accompanying her grandmother to Suzhou for fun. She cannot deserve such kindness from the King of Wu."

Before he finished speaking, the voice of the Suzhou official came to his ears again,

"The prince said that you will definitely reply like this. The prince also said that he and Uncle Zhongyong, your uncle, have been friends for many years."

"They often go fishing in Tai Lake. They are good friends who have forgotten their years. The friends' relatives come here and they naturally want to take care of them."

"Please ask Miss Minglan to follow me into the city!"
