C118 The Gate of the City Is in Charge of the Prime Minister's Order
When the outline of the Naga Harbor appeared in Ban Benlongma's line of sight, he was completely dumbfounded. Is this the Asura Hell? The of the Tsingtao of ten thousand countries had already been completely burnt in a single night?
In front of Dracunculide, the flames in the city were still burning as the black smoke s shot up into the sky. The west side of the Shouli City was riddled with holes from the explosion. Many of the crenellated walls had caved in, revealing the pitch black ground underneath.
The surface of the sea directly facing Shouli City was filled with wreckage and pieces of wood. Dozens of Western Merchant ships s were desperately firing towards the mountain slope to the east of Shouli City, pouring down towards the rocky region with their lives.
Ban Benlongma didn't understand the situation, what exactly was on the mountain slope to the east? Using the telescope s, he saw that there were still faint traces of Japanese's battle. The manmade short walls were also filled with White Flag s, and some corpses of Soldiers were lying on the ground.
However, what was surprising was that there were no living people left in the rubble area to the east. Why did these foreigners still have to fire their cannons? Do their Projectile and gunpowder not need money?
Ban Benlongma really didn't understand the situation. In fact, even Xiao Letian didn't expect the current situation to be like this.
In the previous battle, in order to give Americans a protective talisman, Xiao Letian had specially used the flag language to inform the USA Merchant ships. This time, King of the Glazed Ball had requested for the cannon to be fired at the same time, thus changing the nature of the war. In the past, it was a courageous act, but now, it had become the Mercenaries that was controlled by the Government.
Since it was the Mercenaries, then the expenses after firing the cannons would naturally be reimbursed by King of the Glazed Ball. Furthermore, bombarding the Japan was also a diplomatic dispute, so the Merchant ships's Home Country had an excuse to negotiate with him.
Right now, Western Powers and the rest were eager for the weak Country to start a war with each other, because as long as there was a war, there would be trade, diplomatic negotiations and even redistribution of benefits. All in all, only when the water was muddy would the big fish in the deep water come up.
Because of this consideration, when the foreigners on the sea saw this flag, all Trader went crazy.
"Oh, this group of USA scammers, they actually secretly accepted the glume Kingdom's request for help, and they actually became the Mercenaries! They actually didn't tell us about such an interesting thing. It's really Uncle that can't bear Aunt … Issuing the signal to the Shouli City, we must also participate in the pacification of the land, we must also carry out armed intervention … "
UK, France, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain … The Merchant ships from various Country began to move, spread out their sails and quickly seized the position, launching a 'tragic and unparalleled' bombardment towards the east where Japanese had retreated.
Right now, the whole battle had already turned into a lashing of corpses. The USA Merchant ships had long since dragged the surrendering Japan Ship Closure to the side to watch the show, and now everyone was watching these foreign clowns perform.
The rocks on the hillside were turned over and over with Artillery s, and the corpses that were already blown into pieces were once again thrown into the air. It seemed that they could be directly transformed into fertile soil without the help of bacteria s and microbes.
These Western Merchant ships were desperately trying to show off their strength. The subtext was very obvious, 'King of the Glazed Ball, you better see how powerful we are, the last Mercenaries must not be underestimated.' Also, they were just trying to establish their might for their own country's Government.
Ban Benlongma slowly approached the Naga Harbor amidst the sounds of artillery barrage. When these Western Merchant ships s discovered a lone Japan Ship Closure, a France Merchant ships and a Netherlands Merchant ships actually thought of him as a fish out of the net, rushing up full of sails to capture him alive.
"Raise White Flag... Immediately send out the order, telling them that we are from the Japan and that we are here to negotiate on behalf of the Shimadzu. "
French and Dutch confirmed it a few times before they reluctantly let the Ship Closure pass the test. When Ban Benlongma slowly got closer to the wharf, he finally understood how serious the conflict was.
"Hell on earth, this must be the Asura Hell mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures!" Ban Benlongma commanded the Ship Closure to carefully park on the half-destroyed bridge. Before they even landed, they already smelled the pungent smell of blood and burnt flesh.
Dragon Horses had come to the glume before, and in his memory, the tyrannical Port was unbearably beautiful. Here, there were endless tropical fruits, and there were also countless resources from various countries. But now, apart from the ruins, there was no one else to clean up the corpses on the street. They were just left by the roadside.
When the Dragon Horse company boarded the wharf, they met a group of Chinese's guards. After a night of bloodshed, Chinese's guards gathered with the Yuelin Army's army, forming more and more disorderly guards.
"Look, there's Japanese on the wharf. He's also carrying a blade, quickly grab him …" A group of 40 plus soldiers quickly surrounded them with a variety of weapons.
"We are emissaries, we just came from Japan's native Deer Island, we are not here to fight … "Let's go see King Chantale, let's go see Mr. Xiao …" Ban Benlongma's group explained for a long time before they finally dispelled the doubts of the guards. Then, a group of people pushed them towards the Shouli City.
Along the way, Ban Benlongma saw countless corpses and ruins. He heard the angry curses from the surrounding guards and understood it all. He had a good understanding of the causes and effects of the conflict.
"Eight, Shan Benqing is a stupid pig. This demon that only knows how to kill is simply Zhou Tie. You think killing Xiao Letian alone is not enough? Why use E Balang's group of rascals? Why did they start a war of interracial extermination? "You, Bastard …"
Just as Ban Benlongma was cursing in his heart, two frightened Japanese Rangers rushed out from the intersection in front of them. They were staggering and covered in blood. Behind the two of them, more than twenty Chinese were pouring out, chasing after them with wooden poles and a stool leg.
"Beat him to death, beat them to death. These two Sun steelers are E Balang's Liu steelers, I know them …" In the midst of the scolding, wave man was thrown to the ground like a huge horse. Behind him, Chinese rushed up and used a wooden stick to beat him into a pulp.
Ban Benlongma couldn't believe his eyes. Was this still the humble and polite Chinese? They were way too cruel, especially when they looked at him with cold gazes, as if they were looking at another species.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and leave. After angering us, Prime Minister, the consequences will be the same for all of you … Damn, you guys are a bunch of survivors. The wharf's Boss Wang's family's Daughter was insulted to the point of death by this group of disciples, and in the end she even f * cking dismembered. Wait for Wu Tie to annihilate your entire Japan … "
Of course Ban Benlongma could understand Chinese. At the same time, he felt a chill in his heart, but at the same time, he also asked, "Sorry, who is the Prime Minister you are talking about? I would like to ask, since when did glume have an official position like Prime Minister? "
"Pah …" The ignorant little scamp of the Japan, Prime Minister, was obviously the upper class Xiao Letian, Zhou Tie. King Chantale had already recognized Mr. Xiao as the Imperial Advisor and even worshipped Prime Minister. Do you know what Prime Minister is? "He's the Prime Minister, the biggest of all the officials …"
Ban Benlongma frowned when he heard this. If it was a negotiation with King of the Glazed Ball, he had a 100% chance of winning, but if the negotiating opponent was Xiao Letian, then he didn't dare to think any further.
Along the way, Ban Benlongma saw countless scenes of Sun Steel Guards suppressing Japanese Rangers. The Naga Harbor of the past with a hundred thousand Liu steels had changed overnight, and all of the Liu steels had disappeared in an instant. It was only until he arrived at the Shouli City that he understood that the current Naga Harbor's Japanese was already in a life-and-death situation.
"Luo Huo, bring your flame gun team and head to wharf immediately to purchase Ammunition from Endeavour. Mike is on Endeavour now, he purchased from all the foreign Merchant ships at large, asking them to provide flame gun and Ammunition at high prices. In the future, if they want to do good business with me, it's time for them to invest …"
"adults, where do we get the money from?" The foolish Luo Huo still wanted to ask, but Xiao Letian scolded him instead, "I owe them. Tell them that Laozi is the Prime Minister of the glume Kingdom, and they are worth a silver dregs …"
"Xiao Hexin, Sima Yun …" You two gather as many strong men as you can from Chinese, and try your best to search for weapons. Surround Hua Shanliyuan's courtyard and the Barracks behind him from both the east and west, and make all the Japan s surrender unconditionally. If you don't put down your weapons by 12 o'clock, you will be annihilated … "
"Yes sir!" Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun immediately went to arrange things.
"General Tsai Tsai!" Xiao Letian then turned to look at glume's Great General Cai Mao, "I heard earlier that you were once a Great General of glume? Then she had to go ashore because she didn't have the money to build a boat? "Fine, I'll give you a chance. Now, recruit some experienced veterans from glume people. Laozi, I'll be able to build a new batch of Navy s for you in no time …
Liu Tie was so excited that tears were flowing out of his eyes. He knelt on one knee and punched his chest with his right fist. "Xie Prime Minister …" Please give the Japan Ship Closure that you captured to me. I can have captive's four ships sail on the sea in less than a day … "
"Very good, I can give it to you, go directly to the wharf to find Americans, give my pass to Mike, he will help you coordinate …"
Xiao Letian sat at the South of the City's Gate, arranging the following missions one by one. It seemed that he had already deduced the situation long ago and had considered all the possibilities after the battle. Of course, he also knew that the few people standing outside the Team were the envoys of this island. He also knew that the one leading the way was Ban Benlongma, who was about the same age as him.
However, Xiao Letian didn't have the time to care about him right now. He should go and wait for him, regardless if he was famous in history or not.
"Lin Yuanmiao …" Xiao Letian shouted and Minister of Revenue ran over eagerly while lowering his head and waiting for the order.
"I am already the glume's Prime Minister, where is my official stamp? "Take care of the treasury, carve Prime Minister's seal for me right away..." Also, you have to post the safety notice. Otherwise, if glume people doesn't know that I am an official, how would I give the order? "
Lin Yuanmiao laughed so hard that his eyes couldn't be seen anymore, "Liu Tie, don't blame me. I have already asked the chief steward to go to the storehouse to choose a treasure, but the Prime Minister has never made a treasure in the glume Kingdom, and he doesn't know the specifications … King Chantale told me to come down and ask the Prime Minister, do you want the golden seal or the jade seal? There are also jadeite from Burma in the ivory state treasury... "
"Wait! Jade? Is it the old ice seed? "How's the water?" When Xiao Letian heard about the jade, he suddenly remembered that the jade was not as important as it was in the ancient era. It was just a classification of jade, the love for jade that China had in recent years was actually also due to Ci Xi, because Ci Xi was famous for loving jade, and her liking for it also caused the price of jade to skyrocket.
Good stuff, I'll eat more while it's still cheap. Leaving it for my children and grandchildren in the future would also be a fortune.
Lin Yuanmiao obviously didn't understand the term Xiao Letian used, "Ah? "Prime Minister, please enlighten me. I don't understand what you're saying …" Xiao Letian smacked his head and said with a smile, "Let me ask you, is emerald green not green? Is it really a good product from Myanmar …"
"Yes, yes, yes, I've seen it before. It's very green and its origin is very clear. It must be one of the top quality jadeite that the Burmese royalty once owned …" Xiao Letian laughed when he heard that, "Then why aren't you going? I'm still waiting to use the stamp."
Under Xiao Letian's orderly arrangement, the Prime Minister of glume exercised his authority for the first time. Regardless of whether it was the military or the civil affairs, he arranged them in a neat and orderly manner.
The tyrant set up security guards, and now began to isolate the fire, clean up the bodies, and conduct military management of the city. After that, Official and the others at the bottom of glume began to gather the residents and distribute grain to clear the water wells to carry out their preliminary work.
On the sea, Xiao Letian hired the fastest scissor boat that belonged to the Netherlands, and told him to immediately head to the Tanggu to contact Manager Fan. The reconstruction plan of the glume Kingdom required money and supplies, and these had to be delivered from the Mainland.
As time passed, the number of officials left beside Xiao Letian gradually decreased. In this period of time, Xiao Letian did not bother with Ban Benlongma, and this influential figure in the recent history of Japan was also patiently waiting.
It wasn't until the pocket watch needle hit ten o'clock in the morning that herald broke the silence between them. Report... Report Prime Minister, the Japanese Barracks at the top of the mountain took up a defensive stance, refusing to surrender … Lili and Sima Yun adults are requesting for the flame gun's support. Please be at ease, Prime Ministerson.
