Become a feudal king from today - #910 - Chapter 924: What I Saw
“Envoy from Britain?” Zhao Xu handed the note to Tsui Hark with a playful expression. ReadМ
At this time, Britain suddenly sent an envoy, and he could almost imagine what the envoy would say to him.
With their arrogance, they might have the same face as the Russian Foreign Minister.
However, this is just his guess, and he still wants to meet him in the end.
So he said to Feng’er, “Send a message to Jinghai and ask them to send people to Yancheng.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Feng’er responded, turned and left.
Next, Zhao Xu ordered Xu Hark to continue to pay attention to the situation in the southern region of Dongtu before letting him go back.
Here, Feng’er left the study and went to the prison room in the front yard of the palace.
There is a wired telegraph machine here that can receive and send telegrams.
After conveying King Yan’s order, the sound of “tick-tick-tick” sounded in the squad room.
At the same time, the pen on the wired telegraph machine in the Jinghai Naval Base Office suddenly started to move.
The telegraph operator kept shaking the paper wheel to record the transmitted information and translate it into writing.
Immediately, the telegraph operator gave the note to Zhou Yi.
“Take that British red-haired ghost named Babur to Yancheng.” Zhou Yi ordered.
This person was discovered by a naval warship while patrolling Yizhou.
His order was passed, and a group of soldiers took a Briton out of prison and took him to Tranquility Railway Station.
They will take a steam locomotive to Yancheng.
“God, Babur, have you seen this?”
Jinghai Railway Station.
The two Britons looked at the steam locomotive parked on the rails. The younger Briton lost his composure in surprise.
He was Babur’s lieutenant.
Then the older Briton wearing a black tuxedo is naturally Babur.
“I’m not blind. Don’t show this expression, it will make us look like bumpkins. Haven’t you ever seen a steam locomotive?” Babur snorted.
In fact, inside, he was no less shocked than his adjutant.
This shock started from the first time I saw a sailing warship pulled by a steam ship.
Now, they saw the steam locomotive again.
In this typical oriental city, he saw white smoke pillars.
He swore that this was definitely not a chimney, but a column of smoke from a steam engine boiler.
After all, such plumes are everywhere in Britain.
“If it weren’t for their yellow skin, I really would have thought they were in the West.” The adjutant was so surprised that he heard exactly what Babur said, and he uttered another surprised exclamation.
They were discussing in low voices when the steam locomotive’s whistle suddenly sprayed out white mist and whistled “Woo-Woo”.
The people on the platform boarded the steam locomotive one after another, and the soldiers also escorted the two people onto a carriage.
Since the steam locomotive was already full, the two were asked to stand behind the twelve carriages.
In the carriage, people cast curious glances at them from time to time.
A brave boy asked the standing naval soldier, “Brother Soldier, why do they look so strange and where do they come from?”
The naughty kid said this, and everyone in the carriage pricked up their ears.
The navy soldier who led the team said, “They are from the West. The West has sent many soldiers to the East to attack us, and they are one of them.”
“Xitu is so far away from us, why do they want to beat us?” The naughty child showed innocent eyes.
He is ten years old this year and has already attended public school for a year and has mastered some simple world geography.
“Why are they beating us? Because they are a group of bandits. Almost all countries in the world except the Western Land have been bullied by them. Dasong is the last piece of pure land, so they will naturally come to rob it.” A middle-aged businessman said.
He is engaged in maritime trade and has a good understanding of the situation at sea.
When the naughty kid heard this, he suddenly showed a fierce look, “Then let my brother beat them to death. This year’s recruitment, he went to the Suzaku Army.”
“Hahaha… That’s right, when dealing with bandits, you have to kill them, just like you dealt with Beidi.” Everyone laughed, and the solemn atmosphere in the carriage suddenly relaxed.
The navy soldier touched the naughty child’s head and said, “Just study hard in public. We will take care of these bandits.”
The people in the carriage nodded.
Every time they see the dark green military uniforms in the carriage, they feel particularly at ease.
Because they know that Dasong’s army is worthy of entrustment.
What makes them even more optimistic about the future is that they also have His Highness King Yan.
As long as this patron saint is here, they don’t care about the western, southern or northern lands.
Their children will surely repel all invading enemies under the leadership of King Yan.
“They seemed to be laughing at us.” Compared with the joyful atmosphere in the carriage, Babur was in a gloomy mood.
When the steam engine locomotive started running, his frown became tighter.
Because Dasong’s steam engine locomotive is not inferior to them at all, or even slightly faster.
Furthermore, outside the city, they really saw the factory outside the city, which was almost the same as that in Britain.
As the steam locomotive passed through one county after another, his mood gradually fell to the bottom.
Not only in Jinghai, but in every city that the steam locomotive passed through, he could see traces of industrial development.
Although the factories were nowhere near as dense as in Britain.
But they are real.
“Dasong must be destroyed!” A voice sounded in Babur’s heart.
He and his lieutenants were not pure diplomats.
Instead, he was a reconnaissance lieutenant under General Wesley.
He came under the cloak of a diplomat just to continue the spying mission that Bolt failed to complete last time.
That mission was interrupted in Yizhou.
So, they decided to try it again.
At this moment, he felt that this trip was absolutely necessary.
Previously, General Wesley and the army generals had looked down upon Dasong led by King Yan, believing that it was just an overreaction of Governor Bolt.
Now, the scene from Jinghai to Yancheng is so real.
They were convinced that this was definitely not an exaggeration by Bolt.
Even Bolt underestimated the strength of King Yan.
This real enemy of King Yan, just like the Rus, is indeed qualified as an opponent of Britain.
After he brings what he sees and hears back to Tianzhu, Admiral Wesley will definitely pay attention to it and adjust the corresponding strategy.
They will fight with the armies of other land countries, even the armies of Beidi and Rus.
Before the King of Yan has fully grown up, using Tianzhu as the fulcrum, he will completely end the great song of the King of Yan and destroy all its industrial base.
For three hundred years, all countries that challenged Britain have failed.
There will be no exception this time.
King Yan would eventually be hanged by them like the monarchs of other indigenous countries.
