C1973 The Fatigue Counsellor

Fei Dinanzijue was not in Port Said, and at that moment, the strongest officer in France was the Ambassador's assistant, Counsellor.

Counsellor La Ku was definitely the most capable subordinate of the Minister, and had followed Ferdinand for more than six years already. Furthermore, Fei Dinanzijue had always been working in Paris, allowing his loyal subordinate to continue his career in Egypt.

Since the lord has shown kindness, the subordinate is naturally righteous! Counsellor La Ku could be said to listen to everything the Minister said. Originally, the position of Counsellor was supposed to provide reference for the Minister, but because of Ferdinand's overbearing abilities and personality, Counsellor La Ku had become an enforcer.

For example, during the canal attack on the Hua Clan, La Ku had been carrying out Fei Dinanzijue's plans from beginning to end.

He had already developed a certain inertia, he was too lazy to think at all. In his mind, there was nothing that the Minister could not do.

Moreover, the telegraph communication along the canal was very convenient and developed, allowing the Minister to be informed of any special circumstances. In the eyes of these subordinates, the Minister was omnipotent, and there was nothing that could not be done in Egypt.

But they did not expect that today's conflict would disrupt all their plans. First, the telegraph line was destroyed by the Chinese, and then there was the sudden illness of the minister.

Not everyone was sagacious, the only thing Counsellor La Ku could do was to start the backup plan in advance, so that the sand ship could quickly sink into the canal and rush the Mediterranean Fleet to enter the port.

But it never occurred to him that things were not fixed but changing, that Prussian and British spies had sunk the ship, and that the tyrannical Zhiyuan Warship had damaged the Mariana.

At that moment, Counsellor La Ku could only choose the path of war and negotiation, but did he dare to fight? Would an endless British battleship allow him to fight? Therefore, the only option was to negotiate.

In General Jie Sen's cabin, Counsellor La Ku had already roared for three hours. His throat was stinging and his eyes were dry.

"General Jie Sen... Don't you understand what I'm saying? The two English and French s must join hands to stop the rise of the Chinese, a strong Chinese will affect our rule in the East! "

"Nine years ago, our two countries joined hands to attack the capital of China. No way, the warship under your feet once docked outside the Da Gu Kou … "

"Since when have you been walking with the Chinese? "I don't understand. I don't understand you guys at all …"

"As long as we work together, we can divide up the Chinese forces. That is an endless amount of wealth …"

"Today's matter is easy to settle. It is extremely easy to resolve … "As long as you and I agree to pressure the Chinese, we will punish them for the sin of forcefully provoking trouble and deliberately provoking the French battleship …"

"Order them to commit a crime of not declaring war, and keep them in the Port Said …"

throughout the entire morning, General Jie Sen's brain was buzzing from the noise. After all, Counsellor La Ku was born a diplomat, and his eloquence was formidable. As long as you didn't interrupt him, he would never stop talking.

Jie Sen sneered in his heart, "Idiot, you only know to use your mouth to speak. What did you talk about nine years ago? If it wasn't for us, the UK, being unable to handle the Great Qing alone, or the need for you France to join the army, would we have brought you along to play? "

"Now that you have control of the Suez Canal, even if you manage to break through the French golden channel to India, I don't like the look of you at home. Do you still want me to cooperate?"

Jie Sen rolled his eyes again, then suddenly thought about the set of porcelain that Xiao Letian had given him, tsk tsk. That beautiful cut and glaze, that pure green, that simple yet elegant design... It was simply a divine tool!

"General? General! "Are you listening to me …" Jie Sen who was immersed in his fantasy was suddenly woken up by Counsellor La Ku.

"Ah?" Ah … Of course I'm listening... "The joint statement you've mentioned is not that easy to handle. I am a military general after all. Should we wait for the arrival of our Minister in Cairo before we consider it?"

"I'm really sorry, but it's hard to solve this matter. After all, I'm a soldier, not a member of the judiciary. As for how I judge this conflict, I'm not very good at it …" "Hahaha!"

"I'm a soldier, it's my duty to obey orders …"

Counsellor La Ku was furious, his head was about to burst. He could not understand why the Europeans did not help the Europeans. When did the British get so close to the Chinese?

It's not that I don't understand, but the world is changing very quickly!

Just as Counsellor La Ku was overwhelmed with anxiety, at the southern end of the canal, an old steamboat was puffing out black smoke as it approached towards the north.

On the shore, there were a few hundred cavalrymen escorting the small boat. From time to time, the cavalrymen would discover groups of telegraph line that had been cut apart, and they would curse angrily.

"Chinese people in hell! They actually destroyed the telegraph line to such an extent? "How can I fix this …"

Marine Corps were not so easy to destroy after they were cut. They completely destroyed everything within a few thousand meters by a distance of a few hundred meters, and then another thousand meters. This could basically be considered destroying Suez Canal's telegraph line.

Unless France is rebuilt, it is absolutely impossible to expect to be restored in a short period of time.

Inside the steamboat, Fei Dinanzijue who was leaning on his pillow had a sallow face and was explaining the details of the situation to Registrars. Outside the boat, there were many cavalrymen preparing to rush to Port Said at any time.

"Don't trust the British... Remember... "I can't trust the British, ahem, ahem …"

"At this point in time, the English and French's national interests have already diverged... "It is no longer as harmonious as it was nine years ago …"

"You guys have to know …" It's quite possible that the UK... Most likely in the upcoming Franco-Prussian conflict... yoke... "

"First place... The natural desire to keep second place... Beware of the first and... Three, four, five, six, join hands … "

"First..." Send these commands first... "Ugh …"

Ferdinand's chest immediately felt a stifling sensation, as he violently puked again. Registrars, who was beside him, hurriedly prepared a washbasin. After tossing and turning for a long time, Ferdinand finally managed to catch his breath.

"I regret it so much …" I regret not giving up power in advance... La Ku, he... I'm afraid we won't be able to keep the situation in check … Continue speeding, we must hurry to Port Said, even if we die there! "
