Become a feudal king from today

"British and Sam Congress fully support our country Wu!"

Royal study room.

After a brief exchange of greetings, the British envoy relayed Wolfe's words, and Liang Kai was immediately surprised.

Then there was ecstasy.

According to Wolfe, this comprehensive support includes the best flintlocks and artillery in Britain at the moment.

If Wolfe's proposal is passed by the British Parliament, Britain will even send personnel from the mainland to transport steam engines to Wu.

Through the steam battleship, he saw the steam engine with his own eyes, and also learned the function of the steam engine from Wolfe.

If factories like those in Britain could be built in Wu, why would he not be able to defeat King Yan and unify Dasong.

"Please tell Lieutenant Wolf that I am very grateful to him." Liang Kai trembled with excitement.

Then he said to the serving eunuch: "Prepare one hundred thousand taels of common people to give to Lieutenant Wolfe, and give five thousand taels of silver to this Lord Pitt."

The British envoy's name was Peter, and he said happily: "You are really a generous emperor."

They had long known that this Damsung dynasty was very wealthy, but at the same time very weak, like a sickly wealthy businessman.

Any Western country would covet such an indigenous dynasty.

What's more, Wu State maintains a trade surplus with Britain all year round.

Therefore, the parliament formulated the strategy of invading Wu State, forcing Wu State to sign an unequal treaty and demanding compensation.

But unexpectedly, this plan was broken by King Yan in the north.

Now, they had to change their plans and choose to support Wu.

Of course, this support will not be free. They are not willing to suffer losses. All support provided to Wu State requires them to pay for it.

What's more, Wu State agreed to the tobacco and soil trade, which was the basis for them to reverse the trade.

However, there is another point, which is also the purpose of his visit this time.

Wu State must show sincerity before this support can begin.

Otherwise, even if Wu State gives money, it will not be able to get their support.

So he said: "But I still have something to say. Lieutenant Wolfe asked Wu to provoke a war along the Jiujiang River to divert King Yan's attention and prevent King Yan from launching an attack on our British fleet and attacking Japan." unfavorable."

"What!" Liang Kai's face suddenly darkened when he heard this.

In the battle of Goryeo, more than 200 warships he sent were damaged by 60%, and all the 100,000 powerful troops were destroyed.

For this reason, he felt distressed and couldn't sleep well for several days, and he felt more and more difficult to provoke King Yan's army.

Now, the British actually asked him to challenge King Yan. This is like an old woman eating arsenic and dying too late.

A layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said: "The Eastern and Tu Allied Forces were unable to defeat King Yan in Goryeo. Wouldn't it be difficult for me to allow Wu to deal with King Yan independently?"

Peter sneered and said: "Your Majesty, do you think that Britain's firearms and steam engines are so easy to obtain? What's more, I'm not asking you to go to the north of Wu. I'm just asking you to provoke along the river. You're just making a gesture of going north to hold back the King of Yan's troops. If you If you don’t even have this courage, there is no need for me in Britain to support you.”

"This..." Liang Kai's eyes rolled up.

It was clear that Britain's full support was conditional.

However, he had a secret agreement with King Yan.

If you break your promise, King Yan will definitely be rude.

But then he thought about it and secretly thought that King Yan gave him the sailing battleship drawings just to stabilize him so that he could concentrate on dealing with the Japanese and the British.

Sooner or later it will go south.

At that time, with the strength of King Yan's troops and horses, it will be difficult for him to support him.

The most important thing is that what Britain gave him this time was much more than what King Yan gave him.

Britain's comprehensive support also included helping Wu build sailing warships.

In this way, the sweetness given by King Yan seems insignificant.

Coupled with the shadow of the War of Goryeo, he felt that he could not leave the Eastern Tu Alliance.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth. He would not fight a big battle for the time being, but it was not impossible to have some small battles.

After deciding on the matter, he nodded slowly, "Yes, but at least let me, the Wu Kingdom, see some benefits first, otherwise, I will have difficulty convincing the ministers."

After saying that, his eyes flickered.

Peter secretly thought that Liang Kai was indeed an old fox as mentioned in the Watanabe case.

Nodding, he said: "Within a month, a batch of muskets and artillery from Tianzhu will arrive in Lincheng. Of course, you have to pay."

After a pause, he continued: "One more thing. Lieutenant Wolfe suggested that your majesty spend money to eliminate the disaster and spend some money to recruit mercenaries to fight for him. We in Britain can act as a middleman."

Liang Kai's eyes lit up.

The sea has been banned for more than two hundred years, and the Liang family has also monopolized the sea trade for more than two hundred years, accumulating huge wealth.

If King Yan comes over, these wealth will eventually be taken over by King Yan.

Instead of doing this, it is better to use it against King Yan.

He has also heard about the mercenaries from the West. They kill people and sell goods, they are very vicious, and they are often led by some veterans who are desperate for their lives.

If they can be hired to fight without the Wu army, and they can deal with the Yan army, why not do it.

"Great, this is really a great help to our country of Wu. As long as there are mercenaries willing to fight for our country of Wu, how many mercenaries are there? How many will our country of Wu need?" Liang Kai waved his hand, very proudly.

"It's a deal." Peter raised his chin.

This time, his purpose of coming to Wu State was achieved.

…

Beidi.

Tongniuwangzhang Ranch.

When the British envoy arrived in Wu Kingdom, Sato Masaku also arrived.

After the Goryeo War started, he returned to Japan from Lincheng.

This time, he received an order from the Watanabe case and sent an envoy to Beidi.

After expressing his intention, Ram sent cavalry to escort Dongta to the Khan Court.

After five days of trekking, he saw a golden tent in the vast grassland.

At this moment, Muller Hongzhen and Ivan had received the news in advance.

Sato Zhenjiu entered the sweat tent under the guidance of the guards, and met Muller Hongzhen who was sitting in the main seat and Ivan who was sitting next to him.

In addition, there are Temu Pagoda and Ulanba.

After introducing each other, Sato Zhenjiu said: "Great Khan, Consul Ivan, this time I came under the order of General Watanabe Case. I hope that Beidi and Rus will join us in resisting King Yan. Now, Goryeo This former vassal state of Beidi bowed to King Yan, don’t you still feel threatened by King Yan?”

Mule Hongzhen and Ivan looked at each other.

In Goryeo, the Eastern-Turkish Allied Forces met with disgrace. Now that Sato Shinjiu is here again, they know exactly what Japan is up to.

Similarly, King Tongniu's tentative attack on King Yan's army also made him, Mule Hongzhen, realize a problem. King Yan's army was becoming more and more terrifying.

This is fatal to Beidi.

As for Ivan, he was worried that the territory that Rus had just obtained from Beidi would be threatened by King Yan in the future.

In the past, he had a temporary cooperation with King Yan in order to tie Beidi into the chariot of the Rus Kingdom.

This is a congenial interest.

Now, King Yan threatens the interests of the Rus Kingdom, which is a conflict of interest.

He needed to find a way to deal with it.
