C1935 Consul, please be strong! (2/2)

Ferdinand seemed to be in a daze while having intense diplomatic negotiations with the Chinese. In that drowsy dream, the Chinese people had been rendered speechless by his retort.

”By... Universal public law Your troops can't land with weapons in their hands... This is the territory of our France … ”

”Deliberately destroying the telegraph line … This is what war is all about... We want to punish you! God will punish you! ”

”War, we must war …”

Suddenly, Fei Dinanzijue opened his eyes, and started twitching crazily, yelling for war, but the corner of his mouth was covered in white foam.

The doctors by his side were so anxious that they were at a loss for what to do. They knew that the viscount was having hallucinations due to his high fever. However, other than rubbing his skin with alcohol to cool it down, there was nothing else they could do.

The military officials of the consulate scratched their ears and cheeks anxiously. They tugged at the doctor's sleeves and asked anxiously, ”How is it? When will Consul wake up? We need Master to control the overall situation … ”

”I am so sorry, so sorry! We've done our best, unless... ”

”Unless what? ”Is there any other way …”

The doctor blushed and said, ”Unless the Chinese in the canal help... We know that Doctor Ba Ke has accumulated a lot of experience from practicing medicine in East Asia. Furthermore, he received financial support from the Chinese race, so his research on the bacteriology was extremely smooth … ”

”If he makes a move, the Consul will probably be safe …”

How could the Chinese treat Ferdinand's illness? Although the French wouldn't admit to this even if they were beaten to death, with Xiao Letian's IQ, it wasn't difficult for him to guess that the French were up to no good.

Would the Chinese be so kind? Even if the Chinese were really kind-hearted and did not care about the former hatred, how could they pressure the Chinese in the future if they allowed the medical team to save the Consul?

”No!” ”We must not beg the Chinese people!” A military official said with a savage look, ”Now we must firmly grasp the truth in our hands. The Chinese will brazenly board the battlefield, beat up French soldiers and kill his war horses, destroy telegraph line and even dare to fire cannons …”

”All of this has given us, the France, the truth of the war. We have to prove the guilt of the Chinese people right now! If we turn back and ask the Chinese to treat our illness, it means we have given in! ”Absolutely not …”

”Didn't the Chinese say that if you go all out, you would be exhausted? Now was the time to do it in one go! Consul, please bear with it, and be strong! ”

”Where is our light cavalry? Have you set off yet? We have to reach the Port Said before the Chinese do! They must be stuck in the canal! ”We absolutely cannot allow them to enter the Mediterranean Sea …”

At this moment, more than twenty French light cavalry were approaching at full speed from the desert road on the west side of the canal. They were leaning on their horses to reduce the resistance as much as possible, losing all their burdens and leaving behind only the necessary fresh water and a small amount of food.

They did not even carry their rifles or bullets. Everything was to reduce the weight of their mounts so that they could run further. The Port Said was at the end of the night and they had to reach there before daybreak.
