"Please don't do this. This does not meet our purpose." Bradris stood between Qin Zhiyuan and Manjing to prevent the two from coming into contact.

Bradris could feel that as long as Qin Zhiyuan approached Manjing, this oriental overlord from the Far East might not kill Manjing directly, but would definitely beat Manjing up. For Manjing, it would be better to die gloriously in a duel.

"Boy, this is not your territory. Put away your arrogance." Manjing was fierce on the outside but weak on the inside.

"This is not a question of whose territory it is, Manjing, you insulted the entire Chinese nation and must pay the price for it. If I insulted you French, what would you think?" Qin Zhiyuan spoke righteously. What he hated most was insulting words like "yellow monkey".

Qin Zhiyuan called "Manjing" by name, without even mentioning the word "general", which shows that he had a very bad impression of him.

"General Manjing, this is indeed your fault. I think you should do something." Seeing Qin Zhiyuan's relentless insistence, Bradris turned to persuade Manjing.

"I... this..." Manjing knew he was in the wrong, and he kept mumbling for a long time but couldn't lower his head.

As a senior general, Manjing had almost never lowered his head. Even when he was forgotten because of his poor performance, Manjing never lowered his head to beg others. Now that he had to apologize to Qin Zhiyuan for this matter, Manjing couldn't bring himself to do it.

"Get out of the way, if you don't want it to develop into a bloody incident." Manjing's attendant threatened Gao Hongshi loudly in front of the door.

Gao Hongshi did not answer, and expressed his intention of never compromising with a cold attitude.

"Very good!" The attendant waved his hand, and the guards not far away lined up and ran over with guns.

There was no need for Gao Hongshi to give orders at all, Chen Kangjian immediately led people to meet him.

They were all soldiers, and their tempers were very hot. Hundreds of people lined up to confront each other, and the gleaming bayonets could almost poke each other's faces, but no one retreated or feared.

A bloody incident was about to happen.

"You two, this is not the way to solve the problem. If it gets out of hand, it will be a huge scandal, and the consequences may be unbearable for us." Bradelis no longer wanted to persuade Qin Zhiyuan. He felt that as long as the matter did not escalate further, he would be lucky.

"The key to the problem is not on my side, General Bradelis, if you were me, how would you react? Allow others to insult your ancestors?" Qin Zhiyuan wanted not only an apology, but also equal personality and social status, which was the core issue.

"Yes, General Manjing's statement just now was inappropriate. I believe General Manjing has realized it now. If possible, I can apologize to you on behalf of General Manjing." Bradelis still has a better overall view, and this flexibility is much better than Manjing.

"No, I will apologize myself. Yes, I was wrong, I'm sorry, General Qin." Manjing took a deep breath and apologized to Qin Zhiyuan with a gloomy face.

"Very good, I accept your apology." Qin Zhiyuan also looked gloomy.

Although one apologized and the other accepted, it seemed that they were happy, but Qin Zhiyuan knew in his heart that from now on, he and Manjing were mortal enemies, the kind that would never stop until one died.

"Well, let's stop here." Bradelis didn't want to stay here any longer. He felt that this place was terrible. He was like a clown, stuck between Qin Zhiyuan and Manjing.

After Bradelis finished speaking, Manjing immediately turned and walked towards the door. Manjing couldn't stay for a minute. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to help but fight with Qin Zhiyuan.

Although Manjing knew in his heart that he would probably not be able to beat Qin Zhiyuan.

The next day, the headlines of the newspapers changed to sensational headlines such as "Family strife", "Generals call military dependents bitches", "Shameful words and deeds", and "France's scandal".

These news, without exception, directly criticized Manjing and his direct superior Nivelle by name, and Pétain was not spared. In these news reports, the Second Army led by Nivelle was portrayed as the shame of the French army with "rampant racial discrimination". Not only was Mankin pushed to the forefront, but even the past of ignoring the lives of soldiers was dug up by reporters and severely criticized. The former commander of the Second Army, Pétain, became the initiator of all this. The Central Army Group he now leads may become the second Second Army, which will be a disaster for all of France.

On the first day when Qin Zhiyuan arrived in Verdun, only a few newspapers such as Le Figaro and La Presse paid attention to this matter. Now more and more newspapers are paying attention, such as the petty-bourgeois Reform, the bourgeois republican National, as well as La Presse, Le Journal de Debate, etc., and even the Times, which mainly focuses on diplomatic news and has a relatively large international influence, has begun to report on this matter.

So on the third day, Qin Zhiyuan met Nivelle, and it was Nivelle who took the initiative to visit Qin Zhiyuan.

In the small garden of the Zabiannu Manor, Qin Zhiyuan and Nivelle sat opposite each other.

"Tea has a history of thousands of years. In the beginning, it was used as medicine. About a thousand years ago, tea became a popular drink and a daily necessity for Chinese people at home." Qin Zhiyuan personally brewed a cup of tea, ready to let Nivea appreciate China's tea culture.

The technology of growing tea is originally unique to China. In the middle and late Qing Dynasty, some tea farmers in Fujian were deceived by British businessmen into growing tea in India. From then on, tea growing technology was spread to India and then spread around the world.

This is a standard case of foreigners copying Chinese products.

"Tea is indeed a very good thing. It clears the mind and improves the eyesight, and calms the spirit." Nivele said in French. Although it is not as expressive as Chinese, it does mean this: "But I am very confused, Qin, why are you and Are other Orientals different?"

This is the second person to say that Qin Zhiyuan does not look like an Oriental. The first one is Captain Henry on the Victory News...

Uh...that seems to be the name.

"Orientals are not at the mercy of others. When the swords and axes come against us, we will also fight and we will fight for our lives. This is why the Chinese nation has not cut off its cultural traditions even after 5,000 years." Qin Zhiyuan once again Use a big weapon.

"Hmm, 5000 years is indeed rare." Nivele praised as usual, his words were not without superiority: "So, what do you want to get? You are making enemies everywhere now, and you have successfully offended many people, just by virtue of your luck That old guy Xu, do you think he can protect you?"

Nivelle is five years younger than Foch and is considered the same generation as Foch. Nivelle is qualified to call Foch "the old guy".

"Haha, even if I don't make enemies everywhere, because of my relationship with Mr. Foch, if his enemies come to power, will he let me go?" Qin Zhiyuan did not directly answer Nivele's words, but used a rhetorical question. Show attitude.

"Yes, even if you don't take the initiative to provoke me, I won't let you go." Nivele tore open his warm face, revealing his fangs glowing with cold light.

The word "enemy" has rich meanings, and it means "political enemy" when used here.

"That's it." Qin Zhiyuan didn't care and continued to make tea slowly without shaking his hands.

No matter if it's torn, is it tiring to wear a mask all day long?
