"It's a humble position that is not well-thought, and I'm willing to receive the punishment!" After hearing Gao Feng's roar, Ma Kaifeng immediately said that although he was from the General Staff of the Beiyang War Zone, he had been in the base camp for many years and had a certain political awareness. He was very clear about the relationship between ethnic minorities and subject ethnic groups in the country.

Because the acquisition of national and citizenship in the United States requires not only tax details, but also language, writing and culture assessment, the nation that occupies the upper political class and economic entities within the United States must be the Han ethnic group. However, it is undeniable that the United States was born into a community, and the community absorbed a large number of ethnic minorities in its inception. In fact, the Qing Dynasty has always criticized the United States for its public opinion shells, and it defined the United States as a barbarian, because among the top leaders of the United States, there are not only Western and Malay races such as Simmons, Doya, and Li Shan, but even the founding fathers such as Li Mingxun, Lin Cheng, Ahai, and Ma Donglai were all overseas Chinese.

In fact, not only the Qing Dynasty, but also the gentry and literati within Zhu Ming also viewed the United States in this way. In their mouths, the United States and the Qing Dynasty were no different, they were all barbarians of the Tartars. The only difference was that one was a savage from the white mountains and black waters, and the other was a alien born overseas in the South China Sea. This kind of propaganda was very popular in the late Ming Dynasty when the debate between China and the barbarians was very popular. It was precisely because of this that the Senate represented by Gao Feng has always avoided the people of the occupied areas misunderstanding the United States.

Compared with Ma Kaifeng, who is a little politically savvy, the martial arts movement did not take it seriously at all. He grinned: "What's wrong? Isn't it just that some foreign soldiers were used? If it can't be used, why did they join the army and even let them come to Shandong to fight? Lao Gao, you should do this big problem."

Seeing Wu Xing's appearance, Gao Feng was angry and came to the same place. He slapped the table and shouted: "Let foreign soldiers fight and let them be gendarmeries. Think about it with your pig mind, can you accept a Malay soldier sacrifice for the liberation of the Chinese nation, or will you accept his supervision and control of your life? The former is a deed and a beautiful talk, while the latter only brings national barriers and contradictions!"

Regardless of whether everyone wants to, accept it or not, the United States will inevitably be a multi-ethnic country now and in the future. Li Mingxun wants to use culture and civilization to combine these nations into a Chinese nation, but the first thing to deal with is the contradictions and barriers between nations, especially today when the United States is about to enter the Central Plains. As Gao Feng said just now, a foreign soldier appears on the battlefield of the Eastern continent. If he stands up with his chest and holds a bayonet to face the Qing Tartars and feudal remnants, this is an image of dedication and sacrifice. If the sharp bayonet and tough whip face the people, even the gangsters who do evil will be linked to the words of being arrogant and blessing by those who are malicious.

"Okay, okay, you have one set of principles..." Wu Xing said indifferently.

"Be honest and stand attentive!" Gao Feng ordered when he saw that he was still careless.

Wu Xing stood upright and stood attentively. Seeing Gao Feng so persistent and so serious, he understood that perhaps this little thing he thought was really important. Wu Xing responded: "Sir, the Second Army Army Military Sword, obey your command."

Ma Kaifeng asked carefully: "Your Excellency, you have made a big mistake. I don't know how to improve it?"

Gao Feng said: "Deploy all these overseas aids to the front line, and Martial Arts, draw a battalion from all three army divisions under your command to be commanded by Ma Kaifeng. In addition, Ma Kaifeng, you will immediately give instructions and inform the local merchants, common people and landlords and rich peasants, whether from Jiaozhou or other places in Shandong. The Shandong Military Control Commission will soon open a department in Shandong, and will receive treatment and regulations, just like Fujian.

In addition, please make some preparations. Within one month, the cadre team sent by the base camp, Fujian and Guangdong and Guangxi will arrive. Feng Yihui will also arrive within this month. You must assist him and establish local order."

Ma Kaifeng nodded and said yes. He knew that Feng Yihui was old and was the director of the Denglai Military Control Commission back then. Now he fought in Shandong again and restored Quanlu. It is natural for Feng Yihui to take the opportunity to serve as the Chief Executive of Shandong.

After agreeing on this matter, Gao Feng waved and asked the two of them to sit down. Gao Feng first asked: "How is the situation in the Qingzhou Tartar Camp?"

"The army, horse, money and food are increasing, and there are not many reinforcements from other provinces, but the local gentry from Shandong sent a lot of militia troops to come, and this is to fight us to the end." Wu Xing said directly.

Just as the Qing Dynasty did not know the military strength of the United States, the United States has always been vigilant against the military strength of the Qing Dynasty. The most important of them is the strength of the regiment training mastered by the gentry. These people may not have the combat effectiveness and excellent armor and equipment of the Eight Banners and the Elite Green Camp, but they are all locals, with one mind and a solid foundation, and there are many. Perhaps regiment training will not play much positive role in the decisive battle of the large corps, but they can carry out transportation, escort and other tasks for the Qing Dynasty, and will also destroy the stability of the Restoration Zone and attack the transportation lines of the army.

Local regiment training once influenced the United States' strategy against the Qing Dynasty. When they chose to attack Shandong rather than Jiangnan, they were to avoid prematurely touching the most powerful places in the Eastern continent. In the vast Shandong and Central Plains, the army could use elite cavalry to sweep away those regiment training armed forces, and their city docks and forts could not resist the artillery of the United States. The Jiangnan, which was densely populated by water networks, was completely different. Under that terrain, both the army and the navy, the technical and military quality advantages of the army were difficult to exert. In fact, inland river wars have always been a weak place.

"Zhang Cunren has been asking for help from our inside line. At present, Beijing has deducted the military pay originally planned to be for Yue Le and Wu Sangui, and has also assured Zhang Cunren that elite Mongolian cavalry will be dispatched to join the war. Although the Qing Dynasty did not know our strength and true intentions, it seems that we are ready to fight hard." Ma Kaifeng continued.

Gao Feng said: "This is exactly what I want. Instead of fighting with the Tartars, it is better to have a decisive battle with real swords and guns, saving time and effort. If you do it, your troops should still shrink. Don't contact the Qing army in Qingzhou. If one of them is not done well, these guys will retreat. We will suffer a loss."

The Wu Xing nodded. He had a very rich combat experience. Although the Qingzhou camp provided a geographical advantage for the Qing Dynasty, this advantage was already lacking in the face of the artillery fire of the army. However, if the Qing army retreated to Jinan and even Linqing, which was backed by the canal, it would have simply increased the army's supply line by hundreds of miles. Such a long supply line would not only lose a large amount of supplies, but would also be attacked by the gentry training, which would not be worth the loss.

After deploying the front line, Gao Feng asked a question buried in his heart: "I heard that the Tartar emperor may have the possibility of personally expedition. Do you have any accurate information?"

Ma Kaifeng and Wu Xing looked at each other, and both shook their heads. Ma Kaifeng said, "I don't know if the Tartar Emperor has such a plan, but... If the Qing Dynasty understood our strength or knew our plan, I think the Tartar Emperor would definitely fight in person. After all, this is a battle to decide life and death. The Qing court will not put treasure on Zhang Cunren, after all, slaves are slaves after all."

Gao Feng also considered this way. The current Qing Dynasty sect kings have been in decline. Except for Yue Le, who is responsible for the southeast direction, he can no longer come up with someone who can stand alone. The emperor Fulin has always been very enterprising. This decisive battle to determine the life and death of the Qing Dynasty will definitely not deal with others.

"What if the Tartar emperor really fights in person?" Gao Feng asked.

Wu Xing was stunned for a moment, thinking for a while and said, "Do what you should do. It would be better for the Tartar Emperor to bring all the remaining troops and fight a vigorous battle in Qingzhou. He will do his best to destroy the Qing Dynasty in one battle. Wouldn't it be wonderful!"

Gao Feng shook his head helplessly, but Ma Kaifeng felt something from Gao Feng's words just now. He asked tentatively: "The chief means... the Tartar Emperor personally fights. Should we report to the Senate and ask the Chief to take charge of Shandong?"

"Is it necessary?" Wu Xingman didn't care, and Gao Feng nodded: "It's very necessary!"

Ma Kaifeng whispered to Wu Xing: "General, if it is true, as you said, and he will achieve his achievements in one battle, the great achievements of the sky may not be able to bear. Even if the head of state does not come, the son of the head of state should be in charge. You must be clear that if this battle is won, the army will enter Beijing City, which is not only the capital of the Yuan and Ming Kingdom for three hundred years, but also a throne is waiting for the real master......"

No matter how stupid the martial arts are, I understand here that some glory is destined to belong to only one person, and any sharing by outsiders is not conducive to stability and unity, especially when the outside world is rumored that the head of state is the emperor.

Batavia.

"Your Excellency, I disagree with your compromise with the United States. We have lost too much, and the seventeen gentlemen will never be satisfied." Cologne roared in Matt Sorco's office, but the will of this governor was as solid as a rock, and no rebuttal could shake it.

"I support Mr. Cologne's opinion! We have lost the monopoly of high-end spices such as nutmeg and cloves. If we lose absolute control of the colonies, then our profit points will be completely lost!" A fat man shouted loudly. As he said, in the past decade, the United States has built spice plantations in Nanyang, pushing the prices of some mid- and low-end spices to a point that a Dutch businessman could not accept. Currently, the Dutch East India Company has competitive only high-end spices, nutmeg, and nutmeg crust, which take more than ten years to harvest. If the port of Galle in Ceylon is abandoned, the lilac share will be completely gone. In the agreement reached by Matt Solko and Li Mingxun, the spice archipelago has also been distributed to the United States for most of the time.

"Even if we don't surrender, everything you say will be lost." Matt Solco said: "The era of spices and gold is over. If you want to continue the trade between the East and the West, you must start with textiles, spice cultivation, coffee and cocoa tea production. This is our way out. Obviously, we can't compete with the Chinese, so join them. After all, we are still the number one trading country in Europe. They need the European market and we need Oriental Shangpin..."

Cologne yelled: "What seventeen gentlemen want is monopoly."

Matt Solco said: "Yes, but the East India Company is not only the gentlemen, but also the United Republic of the Netherlands. In between, I choose the latter!"

"Even so, you still choose to compromise and cowardly. You should lead us to fight to the end. We still have more than a dozen ports and hundreds of ships. The Chinese are still facing the threat of the Tatars. We can make them lose blood, make them retreat, and achieve better conditions. You did not work hard in this regard, but chose to sell the interests of the Netherlands and East India Company. You are a crime. I will sue you in the Supreme Court. The gentlemen will not let you go!" the fat businessman shouted loudly.

Matt Solco smiled slightly: "Maybe, the resources in my hands can obtain better conditions and more benefits for the seventeen gentlemen, but as the Netherlands, I and the noble General Druittel chose to invest these resources into the European land to protect the interests of more people. Perhaps in a year, you can see me on the gallows in Rotterdam, but now you must obey my orders, hand over the city to our opponents, and hand over artillery and unnecessary ammunition to the army...."

"Don't want me to surrender!" cried the fat businessman.

Matt Solco smiled slightly and said solemnly to the merchant, who is also a member of the East Indies Commission: "Dear Mr. Oster, I know your firm will very well, so I cannot make you surrender..."

"Hmph!" Oster snorted coldly, as if you were sensible. He yelled so loudly to protect his personal interests in Ceylon and Malacca.

But a delicate pistol had appeared in Matt Solco's hand, and the muzzle was aimed at Oster's chest. With a bang, the lead bullet torn Oster's heart under the unbelievable gaze. Matt Solco saw that his fat head hit the table, and he said, "I can't make you surrender, but I can make you shut up."

After the gunfire, a team of soldiers entered the conference room. Matt Sorco picked up his cane and clicked in front of the representative who had just expressed his objection. The soldiers escorted the people with bayonets and leather boots. Faced with protests and scolding, and responding fists and stocks, Matt Sorco let Cologne go.

"I won't surrender, either." Cologne met Matt Sorco's eyes.

Matt Solco said: "These people will be sent to a boat and sent to the local area. I will not kill them, and I know you will not surrender, but there is a difference between you, Cologne, you are a firm person, I hope you can continue to keep going, you go."

"Let's go?" Cologne couldn't believe it.

Matt Solco said: "Yes, let's go, the United States Marines will take over in a day, and they may just need you to shut up."

"What about you, how do you explain to the gentlemen?" Cologne felt a little pitiful to Matt Sorco at this time.
