Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

Chapter 995: Recapture of Dongdao on February 2, the First Year of Xuantong (Page 6)

When Margot entered the room, she saw the father and son drinking soup.

"Sir, when did you come?" Margot asked in surprise.

"I told you, my father would come to find me." Zhao Lingjun looked at Margot sideways.

Zhao Chuanxin fed her a mouthful of complementary food and said to Margot, "I'll stay for one day and then leave."

"So urgent?" Margot was disappointed.

I don't know why I feel lost.

The complementary food that Zhao Chuanxin fed Zhao Lingjun was mainly rice noodles, supplemented by egg yolks, minced shrimp meat, and fish meat.

Margot then remembered and asked anxiously, "What did you give her to eat?"

Zhao Chuanxin announced the name of the dish, and Margot was shocked: "She can't eat meat yet..."

"Obviously, I can." Zhao Lingjun said with a smile.

Zhao Chuanxin touched her belly and felt that it was almost enough, so he put down the spoon.

Zhao Lingjun was about to pout, but Zhao Chuanxin had already taken out the cashmere blanket, and Zhao Lingjun immediately shut up.

"No problem, I'll take her out for a walk and come back later."

Soon, Wilhelmina learned that Zhao Chuanxin had arrived, and she started working quickly, eager to go home.

When she rushed back to Noordeinborg, Zhao Chuanxin and his father had not returned yet.

Zhao Chuanxin took Zhao Lingjun on a trip around the English Channel and landed on the British coast.

He pointed to the other side of the sea and said to his daughter, "That's France's Dunkirk. If Britain and France form an alliance and go to war with other countries, this will be the landing place. Of course, they will also retreat from here. By that time, France will definitely have been occupied by Germany."

He was talking about the Dunkirk evacuation.

Something that happened a long time later.

Zhao Lingjun stretched out his chubby little hand, pointed at the sea and said, "When I grow up, I want to swim across from here."

"Then you should swim to Calais. Dunkirk is too far away."

The two chatted for a while, and a British soldier patrolling the coastline came over and asked in a bad tone: "What are you doing here?"

Zhao Chuanxin held his daughter in his left hand and lit a cigarette with his right hand: "I'm here to spy on military secrets."

The soldier's eyes widened and he looked around: "What secrets can you get by bringing a child here?"

Zhao Chuanxin blew out a smoke ring: "You know it, but why are you asking?"

Soldier:"……"

The soldier was a little angry after being tricked. He pushed Zhao Chuanxin and cursed him, "Get out of here and go somewhere else."

If it were a white person, perhaps he would show a different attitude.

Zhao Lingjun stared with wide eyes, wondering how her father would handle the situation.

Zhao Chuanxin's hand arrived first after the last one came, and he grabbed the soldier's wrist and kicked the soldier's thigh with blunt force. With one kick, the soldier did a big split.

"Ow..."

It's such a pain in the ass.

The soldier wanted to touch the gun on his back, but Zhao Chuanxin dealt with it nonchalantly, raised his leg, and kicked the soldier in the cheek.

Snapped.

The soldier rolled his eyes and fainted.

Zhao Chuanxin confiscated his Lee Enfield box-action rifle, and Zhao Lingjun laughed with joy.

"My daughter, Dad is sleepy, let's go back to sleep."

When Zhao Chuanxin brought his daughter back to Noordeinborg, Wilhelmina rushed over to him as soon as he entered the house.

Lao Zhao has a princess in his left hand and a queen in his right hand.

Margot, who had been waiting with her camera, pressed the shutter at the right time.

Click...

Record the peak moments of Magistrate Zhao’s life.

But Zhao Chuanxin still told Margot and Wilhelmina: "Don't spread the photos."

He has too many enemies, so he never takes photos.

At one o'clock in the middle of the night, Zhao Chuanxin woke up, left a note for Wilhelmina, activated the energy fluctuation convergence rune fragments, and teleported back to the cabin on the mountainside.

The energy fluctuations converge with the rune fragments. One point is fixed, and the other point is located according to the position before transmission. No matter where Zhao Chuanxin is, he will return to the position before the transmission of Quetshalan after it is activated.

This saves a huge amount of faith power.

Lubin Prefecture and the capital are basically at the same longitude and have the same time. The Hague is 6 hours behind Lubin Prefecture.

Zhao Chuanxin asked his puppet servant to wash and shave him, and after breakfast he went to work as usual.

He had to finish his official duties early today so that he could have time to seize the Dongsha Islands.

Cui Fenghua had just arrived at the gate of Lubin Prefecture's government office on a camel and had been waiting for a long time.

He handed a telegram to Zhao Chuanxin: "Sir, this is a telegram from your apprentice Benjamin. It is of great importance."

Benjamin Goldberg was different from Jiang Jian. He didn't hesitate to tell the story directly: Master, I heard that there is a British strongman named Opin in Shanghai who insulted you as the sick man of East Asia. Zhang Zhankui was angry and led martial artists from Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei to Shanghai to fight for you. I happened to meet him and brought some dry food with me. Come quickly...

Zhao Chuanxin is quite sensitive to these four words.

Poor people, who could not even get enough food, naturally could not afford to smoke opium.

The problem lies mainly with the rich and powerful.

Many of the wealthy foreigners are fond of hunting and various sports. In addition, as their living conditions have improved in recent years, they are born tall and strong.

However, once the wealthy people in the country were addicted to opium, they became emaciated, with hunched shoulders and dull eyes. It was obvious who was superior to them when they stood together.

Are we really inferior to others? Not necessarily.

Since ancient times, people in the Central Plains have been tall and strong, while the vassal states are short and ugly.

In the Qing Dynasty, the situation was reversed.

However, they have only been civilized for a few years, and their tails are already sticking up in the sky.

What are you bragging about?

Zhao Chuanxin crumpled the telegram into a ball and threw it into the black lacquered iron trash can, where it landed accurately.

"Got it. I'll go back to work first. You can tell Zhang Heyan and Yao Shijie later that I'll be out for a few days."

At nine o'clock in the morning, Zhao Chuanxin finished his official business, left the Lubin Prefecture government office, and was sent to Bronze Eye No. 10 Dingdong Island.

The house he built on Dingdong Island was intact, but the surging sea water sometimes splashed onto the plank road and glass in front of the house, causing a thick layer of sea salt and feces from seagulls and other seabirds to accumulate on them.

When Zhao Chuanxin first arrived, a group of seagulls started screaming without any fear of people.

He had no good feelings towards these rogue birds, so he raised his leg and kicked a seagull away, and the rest of the birds soared into the sky.

He has buried gold underneath.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he got up and went down the mountain, riding on the third-generation dragon and galloping on the sea.

……

The Japanese were disgusting. At first, Yoshiji Nishizawa led his men to land on Dongsha Island, put up a plaster flag, and renamed it Nishizawa Island.

The Qing government's negotiations with Japan were fruitless, and later the Japanese became more aggressive, demolishing the Great King Temple, driving out local fishermen, and occupying the island.

Later, Zhao Chuanxin secretly killed Nishizawa Yoshitsugu, and the Japanese withdrew the plaster flag.

Zhang Renjun originally thought that Japan was afraid of Zhao Chuanxin and would withdraw obediently.

Unexpectedly, they just removed the plaster flag and the warships did not dare to sail nearby, but the merchants' fishing boats and cargo ships still traveled here.

They didn't occupy the land in name only, but used actual actions to tell Zhang Renjun: You want to drive us away? No way.

It's as hard to deal with as a dog-skin plaster.

Zhang Renjun sent Liu Yikuan, the captain of the Fu Bo ship, to the Dongsha Islands several times to survey the terrain. After being taught a lesson twice by Zhao Chuanxin, the Japanese no longer tried to stop him but only tried to trip him up secretly.
