Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 797 An unexpected surprise

A gust of wind blew by, and the smoke gradually dissipated.

The corpses of Franco soldiers lay scattered all over the battlefield, and the dust was dyed red with blood.

After detaining some of the surrendered soldiers of Fo Langji, Pan Chang came to Zhao Xu and said, "Your Highness, after interrogation, it was found that Fo Langji's surrender was indeed a conspiracy. They buried a large number of gunpowder barrels under the city gates and roads inside the city. , just waiting for us to explode when we enter the city!”

"Damn it, you can't believe what these Western natives say. Fortunately, the Fourth Academy also has spies in Yizhou, otherwise we would all have died here. We shouldn't have saved this grandson in the first place!" Zhou Yi cursed loudly when he heard this.

Although Fo Langjiren's plot failed, he was still so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

If King Yan has any shortcomings here, he will definitely be chopped alive when he goes back.

Zhao Xu was also frightened. He smiled bitterly and said, "I have speculated on them with the greatest malice, but even so, I still think too well of them. They are really a group of robbers like animals."

After a pause, he continued: "However, you don't have to blame yourself too hard for saving him. At this time, at that time, we needed Fei Wen's information to divide Japan's maritime alliance. Now we are fighting for each other."

Sighing again, he said: "This incident is also a reminder to us. When facing the Western Turks, we don't have to treat them with a benevolent gentleman's mentality. They are just barbarians wearing a civilized cloak. In the end, they will be afraid of the threat." No evil, even so, just use guns and reason with them."

"Your Highness is absolutely right, these bastards just need to be dealt with." Pan Chang clenched his fists and looked at Fo Langjiren's body, feeling relieved.

In the past two hundred years, countless Dasong people have died at their hands.

This time, King Yan was calm and asked them to withdraw from Yizhou honorably, but they didn't want it.

On the contrary, he was so vicious and wanted to kill King Yan, which is simply unforgivable.

After figuring out Fo Langjiren's conspiracy, Zhao Xu and others will naturally not fall into the trap again.

Pan Chang ordered a group of soldiers to climb up the wall of Marka City using ladders, enter the city, and avoid the location where the powder barrels were buried by the Folangji.

According to what the prisoners told them, there were hundreds of soldiers in the city who were responsible for detonating the gunpowder barrels.

Not long after, bursts of gunfire and the explosion of grenades were heard in the city of Marka.

About half an hour later, the gunfire stopped, and Pan Chang ordered a group of soldiers to enter through the main entrance and dig out gunpowder barrels to identify hidden dangers.

"Your Highness, you can enter the city." After another half hour, Pan Chang ran to Zhao Xu in small steps.

Zhao Xu nodded and slowly entered Marka City with Zhou Yi.

Before entering the city, he glanced at Fei Wen's body.

He was killed when the Marines threw the grenade.

Fei Wen wanted to plot to kill him, but he never thought that he and his soldiers would be captured together.

If they defend according to reports, the Marines may have to work hard to capture Marka City this time.

Entering Marka City, Zhao Xu went straight to Fei Wen's Governor's Office.

There were a large number of documents here. Looking at an open diary on the desktop, he picked it up and started reading.

After just reading a few pages, a surge of anger shot from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.

He slammed the diary on the table and said, "Hmph, one day I will crush your arrogance under my feet."

Fei Wen's diary is full of piggy, yellow-skinned monkey and other derogatory names for Dasong people and overseas Dasong people.

The words between the lines are full of the arrogance unique to Western natives.

The diary also records the meeting between him, the Governor of Sterdam, the British Governor, and the Frankish Governor in Calcutta.

He said in words, "I am very eager to join the Eastern Earth Alliance, but King Yan, the yellow-skinned monkey king, is too cruel, so I can only temporarily succumb to his power, but my heart belongs to the Western Earth World..."

In addition, the log also revealed the purpose of the meeting.

British Governor Bolt is trying to win over countries with interests in the Eastern Territory to form an alliance to annihilate him together.

They even sent people from Tianzhu to Tubo to meet with people from Beidi and Rus. This was a deliberate move.

While laying out the Eastern Territory, Bolt has asked the Parliament to send more troops to Tianzhu to shift Britain's center of gravity to the Eastern Territory.

"You have a double standard in the West since ancient times. Since you say that I am cruel, I will show you how cruel I am." Zhao Xu was furious, "Pan Chang, erect wooden stakes on the coast and kill the people of Fo Lang." Hang up all the bodies.”

Dong An came back from the southern sea area and said that the colonists in the southern area would kill the Dasong people who escaped from the farm and hang them on wooden stakes for public display.

He would retaliate in kind!

"Yes, Your Highness." Pan Chang glanced at the diary. The words on it were like tadpoles, and they didn't recognize them at all.

Why did King Yan understand it and get so angry?

I don’t know what the book actually says.

Pan Chang left, and Zhao Xu flipped through other documents, when a document attracted his attention.

The document mentioned that five days ago, a merchant ship loaded with rubber seeds arrived at the port of Marka City, preparing to plant rubber trees in Nanyi Prefecture.

The document also mentioned that due to the emergence of rubber in the West, which has become more and more prosperous in recent years, the natural rubber forests in the New World will gradually become insufficient.

The British had already taken the lead in planting rubber trees in a colony near Malacca.

In addition, the Sterdam people also planted it in Jakarta and offshore islands under their control.

They, Franji, are not to be left behind and are preparing to cultivate rubber forests in Manila and Marka City.

"It's true that you can't find anything without wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort to get it." Zhao Xu murmured.

Currently, Yanzhou's industries already have demand for rubber, such as cables.

Just because there was no rubber, he could only wrap it in tarpaulin.

As industry continues to advance, more and more places will need rubber.

At that time, rubber will become a strategic resource that is stuck.

Now, with this boatload of rubber tree seeds, he can have his own rubber plantation in Yizhou.

Once a rubber tree is planted, it can usually be tapped within five or six years.

This time is a bit long, but according to the document, the British and Stanton people planted rubber plantations in the eastern and southern regions in the early years, and they have been able to provide stable rubber juice.

Since Xitu World is at odds with him and wants to destroy him quickly, he naturally wants to take down the rubber plantation here.

However, his main focus now is Jiangnan.

The war stall should not be too big.

To prevent the troops from being too dispersed and suffering a heavy setback at a certain point.

The results of the victory should be consolidated.

Therefore, he will not let the navy continue to move south for the time being.

Furthermore, compared to Marka City, the Eastern and Southern Territories are the home base where the colonists have been operating for two to three hundred years, and they will face the experienced Western Turkish army.

The Navy and Marine Corps went there, and it was inevitable that they would be dragged there for a while.

Of course, the most important thing is that he needs the cooperation of naval ships and the royal army.

When crossing Jiujiang, it is necessary to prevent the attack of Wu Kingdom's navy, so naturally it needs fleet escort.

There are many mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River. Some strategic places can be easily accessed by water, and they also need the assistance of the navy.
