The plot of this chapter is an exaggeration. Several book friends asked this question in the comment area. One thing is certain: no, but there are twists and turns. After all, as a Chinese, the protagonist is the first choice after the war.
It must be a fallen leaf returning to its roots. But sometimes reality is very absurd, so the protagonist will end up homeless. This result is both unexpected and reasonable. It is just this time and will not be explained further.
After the auction, Lu Zhengxiang, Shi Zhaoji and others finally found the opportunity to come over and have a brief exchange with Qin Zhiyuan.
After some polite exchanges, Qin Zhiyuan connected the historical figures in his memory with the people in front of him. Along with Lu Zhengxiang, in addition to Shi Zhaoji, the minister to the UK, there was also Wei Chenzu, the minister to the Netherlands.
Lu Zhengxiang, originally from Taicang, Jiangsu Province, is China's first generation professional diplomat. Since Tang Zhaoyi, the then Foreign Affairs Minister of the Beiyang Government, did not take office, Lu Zhengxiang still appeared in Europe as a diplomatic representative. Lu Zhengxiang was thin, well-dressed, and wore a pair of frameless gold silk
He has glasses, two delicate beards with raised ends on his lips, and a few sparse beards on his chin. In terms of lushness and sophistication, they are quite different from the two on his lips.
The most amazing thing about Lu Zhengxiang is his Belgian wife, Peide Bolee. Peide was born in 1855, 16 years older than Lu Zhengxiang. When they got married, Lu Zhengxiang was only 28 years old, while Peide was 44 years old.
Although there is a big age gap between the two, they have a very good relationship and are enviable as husband and wife.
Shi Zhaoji is a native of Suzhou, Jiangsu Province. He studied in the United States and received a Master of Arts and a Doctor of Philosophy from Cornell University. Shi Zhaoji’s wife is the niece of former Foreign Minister Tang Zhaoyi.
Wei Chenzu is from Jiangxia, Hubei Province. He passed the imperial examination of the former Qing Dynasty and served as the Minister Plenipotentiary of the Beiyang Government in the Netherlands at that time. The Netherlands was a neutral country in World War I, so Wei Chenzu came to the reception just for fun.
.
General Qin, I have admired him for a long time. Lu Zhengxiang is gentle and gentle, which makes people feel good.
At this time, Qin Zhiyuan was considered a famous name in the Beiyang government. Lu Zhengxiang had no intention of being polite. He had indeed admired Qin Zhiyuan for a long time. Lu Zhengxiang's trip to France this time was precisely for Qin Zhiyuan.
I don’t dare. I’ve heard about Mr. Lu’s name for a long time, and I’m really lucky to meet him today. For Lu Zhengxiang and Qin Zhiyuan, they’ve also admired his name for a long time, and they’re not being polite.
Lu Zhengxiang's life was just a coffee table, and his official career was quite bumpy. Although he worked hard, he couldn't bear the country being poor and weak, so that he had no way to display his vertical and horizontal skills, and finally died in depression in a monastery in Belgium.
General Qin joined the Foreign Legion, fought for France on the battlefield, and promoted our country's prestige thousands of miles away. It is really gratifying. Lu Zhengxiang is in a commanding position.
Just like this, the news of General Qin's victory reached our embassy in the Netherlands, and everyone in the embassy was excited about it. Everyone said that from now on, the Chinese can hold their chests high and raise their heads in front of foreigners. Wei Chen's group took advantage of it.
That's right, General Qin's deeds have spread throughout France. Ever since General Qin burst out, the foreigners' attitude towards us has changed greatly. Speaking of which, we still want to inherit General Qin's love. Shi Zhaoji maintained his formation.
Facing the compliments from several people, Qin Zhiyuan was secretly wary.
At this time, the Beiyang government, the president's group headed by Li Yuanhong, and the prime minister's group headed by Duan Qirui, were engaged in the so-called government-yuan struggle for power and profit. Prior to this, the two factions were arguing about the Beiyang government.
Issues such as whether to join the Allied Powers and declare war against Germany, how much support should be given to the Allied Powers, and whether to send troops to Europe have been controversial for a long time. For this reason, there was even a farce of the Warlord's request to participate in a cabinet meeting.
The Beiyang government's final decision was to join the Allies to participate in the World War, but it did not send troops and only sent workers to Europe in a civilian way.
Because of this, there was no influence from the Beiyang government in the labor force, and Qin Zhiyuan was able to successfully organize the army to join the French Foreign Legion.
The Beiyang government's unwillingness to send troops does not mean that it will allow Qin Zhiyuan to organize the army. If there is an iron-blooded army in Europe that has experienced the baptism of war, the Beiyang government has no reason to let it go and will definitely find ways to bring this army to bear.
The troops are in hand.
Qin Zhiyuan's position at this time is actually very embarrassing. Although Qin Zhiyuan is the leader of the Sixth Regiment and the de facto Chinese labor leader, he was not appointed by the Beiyang government, but by the French government. If the Beiyang government interferes,
Qin Zhiyuan may face unnecessary trouble.
After being polite for a while, Qin Zhiyuan heard the meaning of Lu Zhengxiang and others. Lu Zhengxiang and others were tapping from the side to understand Qin Zhiyuan's thoughts to see if Qin Zhiyuan had the idea of joining France by taking advantage of the vested interests of the Foreign Legion.
Director Lu can rest assured that Qin was born Chinese and will be a Chinese ghost after death. He wants to go to the underworld of China. Qin does not want to go to the hell of the French. Qin Zhiyuan made a double entendre and clearly expressed his position.
After Qin Zhiyuan finished speaking, Lu Zhengxiang, Shi Zhaoji and others exchanged glances, and then Lu Zhengxiang became the representative.
In this case, General Qin, please accept the letter of appointment from Premier Duan. Lu Zhengxiang looked solemn, took out a letter of appointment and handed it to Qin Zhiyuan with both hands.
Qin Zhiyuan took it with both hands and unfolded it. The general idea was: Qin Zhiyuan will join the Army of the Republic of China with the rank of major general from now on and serve as the commander-in-chief of the troops participating in the war in Europe.
The appointment letter bears the seal of the Beiyang Government's War Department and Duan Qirui's personal seal, which fully demonstrates the characteristics of the times where public and private affairs are not distinguished.
Please tell Chief Lu to tell Premier Duan that Qin will definitely fulfill his mission and die with all his strength. Qin Zhiyuan expressed his determination with famous sayings both inside and outside the teacher.
Such a good General Qin, in this troubled year, we are doing our best to serve and be loyal to the country. I sincerely wish General Qin to be invincible in every attack and win every battle. I will show my style as a Chinese soldier in Europe. When I return with honors, I will
I will celebrate with General Qin later. Lu Zhengxiang is impassioned. As the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lu Zhengxiang is aware of his country’s international status. Because of this, Lu Zhengxiang hopes that more people like Qin Zhiyuan will appear. In that case, the country’s international status will continue to improve.
, Lu Zhengxiang’s diplomatic work will also be much smoother.
Mr. Lu can rest assured that as a soldier, Mr. Qin will not disgrace our status as a soldier. Mr. Qin has come here, regardless of his life and death, and vows not to return home until he raises the dignity of our army. Qin Zhiyuan himself is a man who died once, said
Seeing through life and death is a bit too much, but it's okay to describe it as fearless.
good
Lu Zhengxiang high-fived and praised.
Haha, so good.
General Qin is mighty.
Shi Zhaoji and Wei Chen agreed. Diplomats all admire soldiers like Qin Zhiyuan. There is no conflict of interest between the two professions, but they complement each other.
General Qin, in the near future, there will be a corps of military officers in the country who are about to experience France. If appropriate, General Qin can arrange them to join the Foreign Legion so that they can feel the atmosphere of the war and gain some combat experience. Looking at the warm atmosphere, Lu Zhengxiang seems to
Just say it casually.
As soon as Lu Zhengxiang spoke, Shi Zhaoji and Wei Chen started laughing at the same time, their eyes fixed on Qin Zhiyuan, observing Qin Zhiyuan's reaction.
Haha, okay, I was planning to set up a staff department, but I was suffering from the lack of professional soldiers who had received systematic training. It was just right to send an officer corps from China, which really solved my urgent need. Qin Zhiyuan seemed unaware and happily agreed.
.
Lu Zhengxiang and others all breathed a sigh of relief, chatting and laughing happily.
