Qingfeng did not panic, and breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw that all the soldiers had withdrawn from the Songkou area.
"Grand Governor, here comes the troublemaker," Qingfeng immediately reported to Zhang Ruli.
"What the Heavenly Master said is that Fan Dexi, the supervisor of Songkou Patrol, may have brought people here.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Master made proper arrangements, otherwise I really wouldn't know how to deal with it today."
Zhang Ruli replied calmly.
"The Governor's words are serious," Qingfeng said, and handed Zhang Ruli his token and returned it to its original owner.
At this time, those people carrying lanterns had already lined up in front of the Songkou boundary monument, all dressed in British style.
"You guys stop," he shouted in not very fluent Chinese.
Zhang Ruli looked back and saw that the person shouting was none other than Songkou Patrol Chief Fan Dexi.
He was riding a tall horse, dressed in military uniform, and looked very impressive.
"It's true that this foreign devil is always disrespectful when he comes.
I have to deal with him."
After Zhang Ruli finished speaking, he ordered everyone to stop rushing, and he led Qingfeng to turn around and go forward.
Fan Dexi was extremely surprised when he saw that the person coming was Zhang Ruli.
"Who did I think this person was?
It turned out to be Governor Zhang."
"Mr.
Fan, thank you for meeting us again," Zhang Ruli replied in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
"In the words of your Qing Dynasty, what kind of wind brought Governor Zhang here?"
Fan Dexi said with a sneer.
"Hahahahaha, where is this?
Manager Fan is always joking and patrolling all over Haicheng.
That is the duty of this governor," Zhang Ruli smiled and replied seriously.
"So it turns out that this is the case, but this manager heard a series of gunshots on our Songkou border.
What's going on?"
Vanderhee asked.
"Has Mr.
Fan forgotten that the land under our feet is the junction of Haicheng and Songkou?
As the saying goes, when a rooster crows and three provinces are captured, the governor is arresting thieves in Haicheng, and the sound of gunshots will naturally reach Mr.
Fan There it is?"
Zhang Ruli smiled and explained.
"Where in the Qing Dynasty do you have such a big rooster?"
Fan Deshi asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Master Manager, what Governor Zhang means is that our two places are bordered.
If there is a rooster, just crow here, people in the other place will know it immediately."
The man next to Fan Dexi was a Chinese patrolman, who hurriedly Stepped forward and explained.
After hearing this, Fan Deshi found it very interesting and laughed.
"Captain Zhang, you Qing people always speak in roundabout ways, and I don't like it.
But this time is an exception.
Your sentence of one chicken crows three provinces is really interesting."
"General Manager Fan has commended our Chinese culture for its profoundness and breadth.
What I have said is just a piece of wisdom," Zhang Ruli then replied.
"Governor Zhang, the Japanese general is not here to discuss this with you today.
No matter what the truth of the matter is, I hope you will abide by our previous agreement and not cross the line.
Otherwise, I will not be able to take care of the friendship between old friends.

You know, it is a very embarrassing thing in your Qing country to have a falling out between friends, isn't it?"
Fan Deshi said word by word.
Zhang Ruli understood Fan Dexi's bottom line, and he would not allow anyone to cause trouble for him on loose territory.
"General Manager Fan said that the governor will abide by the agreement today.
It is indeed an accident," Zhang Ruli replied.
"Very well, Commander-in-Chief Zhang, I'll see you later," Fan Deshi said politely.
"Mr.
Fan, please."
Before Zhang Ruli finished speaking, Fan Dexi had already led many patrols and left the boundary marker at Songkou.
"Grand Governor, this foreign devil Fan Dexi is quite interesting," Xin Yun couldn't help but sigh.
"You don't know.
In his spare time, Fan Dexi likes to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
I once gave him a piano as a gift, thanks to this friendship.
Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be trouble again today," Zhang Ruli explained in a relaxed tone.
"What the Governor said is absolutely true.
Fan Dexi knew everything in his heart, but he just didn't reveal it."
Qingfeng continued.
Zhang Ruli nodded, thinking of Han Yongzhong who was still trapped among the overseas Chinese, and couldn't help but feel worried.
"Master Tian, since all the thieves here have been killed, let's go back to the city immediately and help Master Han.
Otherwise, we will miss the opportunity after dawn," Zhang Ruli said calmly.
"What the Governor said is that you have already sent a letter to Mr.
Han.
Perhaps Mr.
Han has made an important discovery," Qingfeng replied calmly.
Zhang Ruli responded and immediately gave the order to return to Haicheng at full speed.
At this time, Han Yongzhong in Haicheng, looking at the dark night, was still keeping an eye on all the trading companies opened by Japanese expatriates, especially the Oda Trading Company.
"Has there been any movement since Oda Shinji returned to the trading company?"
Han Yongzhong called the leader over and asked for details.
"Replying to your lord, it seems that Oda Shinji never came out after returning to the trading company," Tou Tou replied carefully.
"It seems that Oda Shinji has expected that we will be watching nearby.
Therefore, he adopted a strategy of stopping with silence.
He is waiting for us to retreat," Han Yongzhong couldn't help but sigh.
"This cunning Japanese devil, wait until we get the real evidence that he colluded with the thieves and see how we deal with him," said the head angrily.
"In a while, it will be dawn.
Now that things have happened, we can only retreat immediately," Han Yongzhong ordered reluctantly.
"Sir, I heard you right, humble post.
If you retreat at this time, doesn't that mean you are letting the tiger go back to the mountains?"
said the head in confusion.
"What I mean is to withdraw overtly and increase covertly," Han Yongzhong replied calmly.
"Withdrawing the overt sentry and increasing covert sentry, could it be that your Excellency wants to withdraw the overt sentry and increase the covert sentry?"
the head asked rhetorically.
"That's right, that's all.
Let's see who can last," Han Yongzhong explained calmly.
"It's a humble job, I'll arrange it right away."
After saying this, he immediately stepped back.

Han Yongzhong looked at the Oda Trading Company not far away and felt in a dilemma.
For him, Oda Shinji's line was like a piece of chicken ribs, tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away.
"It would be great if the Grand Governor and the Heavenly Master were here," Han Yongzhong said with a sigh.
"Hahahaha, our Lord Han also sighs sometimes."
A familiar voice came from behind Han Yongzhong.
"Grand Governor, you are back, Heavenly Master."
Han Yongzhong was extremely happy to see Zhang Ruli and Master Qingfeng.
"Master Han, do you have any new discoveries here?"
Qingfeng asked hurriedly.
"I now suspect that Oda Trading Company has something to do with those thieves," Han Yongzhong replied calmly.
"Why does this governor of Oda Trading Company sound familiar?"
Four words immediately flashed in Zhang Ruli's mind, but he couldn't remember it, as if he had heard it somewhere.
"The Governor has a good memory.
This Oda trading company is mainly engaged in the marine fish business, and it is the first Oriental trading company in Haicheng," Han Yongzhong explained quickly.
Zhang Ruli nodded and suddenly realized Thank you all for your continued attention:
