Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 707

[Chapter 707]

Lincheng Wharf.

Not long after Sun Zheng and his party left, Liang Kai led the ministers of the State of Wu to the pier.

He had news of the arrival of the British fleet.

Looking at the steamships emitting huge columns of smoke and dragging the sailing warships forward, he couldn’t close his mouth for a long time.

Before the country of Sam mediated the East-Turk Alliance, he didn’t know what a steamship was.

To embolden him, it was the people of Sam who revealed to him the news that there were twelve steamships in Britain berthing in Tianzhu.

At the same time, he was introduced to him what a steamship is.

Seeing it with his own eyes now, he was beyond shocked.

After the steam ship and sail warship docked at the pier, a British general in red uniform disembarked and led a group of soldiers to him.

“Lieutenant Wolfe of the British Navy has seen His Majesty Wu.” Wolfe took off his hat and bowed slightly to Liang Kai, “I am here under the order of Governor Bolt to help your country Wu resist the threat from the north.”

“Thank you very much.” Thank you!” Liang Kai’s forehead was beaded with sweat.

At this moment, he realized how ridiculous it was for him to rely on the Wu Guoshui division to resist the Britons.

A deep sense of crisis spread in my heart.

He thought he should really thank King Yan.

Otherwise, if Britain fought against Wu, Wu’s navy would be wiped out.

From now on, the state of Wu will also be manipulated by the British at will.

The existence of King Yan obviously attracted the attention of the Japanese and Western natives.

Only then did the Eastern Land Alliance come into being, and this allowed them to escape the disaster of Wu.

Thinking of this, he was even more grateful for the agreement he had secretly reached with Sun Zheng.

King Yan cannot be destroyed for the time being, at least until his state of Wu is strong enough to defeat Britain.

Otherwise, once he Wu Guo is worthless.

The East-Turk Alliance will definitely become a tool for Japan, the Kingdom of Sam, and Britain to carve up the grand war.

Thinking of this, he became more and more determined to work without any effort, swaying from side to side, just seeking benefits from both sides.

Wolff nodded, “Won’t Your Majesty invite me to sit in the palace and discuss the next move?

” go.

Arriving at the imperial palace, Liang Kai called Sam’s envoy Rom and Dongying’s envoy Higashino Kimura over.

After the establishment of the Eastern Land Alliance, the two of them will be permanently stationed in Lincheng and be responsible for the affairs within the alliance.

The four parties gathered together, and Wolf said directly: “Governor Bolt asked me to take full charge of the Eastern Land Alliance. Since all the most important parties have arrived, why not make an alliance today.”

Rom and Higashino Kimura nodded, and they Naturally, I have no objection, and I only hope that the Eastern Land Alliance can be established as soon as possible to curb King Yan’s expansion in Eastern Land.

Liang Kai didn’t hesitate either, Dongying had already promised to hand over the northern part of Yizhou to Wu State, and all the conditions he wanted had been fulfilled, so he should keep his promise.

Seeing that no one objected, Wolf took out the contract.

This contract was personally supervised by Bolt, Governor of the British Eastland.

When all parties sign, they will become allies of each other.

If any party is attacked, the countries in the covenant have the obligation to support.

At the same time, there are clauses about business and trade in the contract.

Wu will open three treaty ports for bilateral trade and provide supplies for the opposing fleet.

The contract was made in quadruplicate, and when they got the contract, they all signed it.

Because of the above terms, they agreed from the beginning.

After signing the contract, Wolfe stood up and said to Liang Chengdao: “Your Majesty, what do you need me to do next?”

Liang smiled happily, “I hope that Lieutenant Wolfe will lead the fleet into Jiujiang with the Wu Guo Navy and cover in Yangcheng.” The soldiers and horses of the powerful clan withdrew to the south of Jiujiang.”

During this time, his envoys had already gone to Yangcheng and returned.

Xie Duan, Han Zheng and Prince An Ju all agreed to be under his command and regard him as emperor.

After so many years, his Liang family has finally made other powerful families surrender, just like they once surrendered to the Zhao family.

And after that, it was the agreement between him and King Yan.

The purpose of his tour of Jiujiang with the Britons this time is to tell King Yan to keep his promise and not to think about going south.

The Eastern Land Alliance has the ability to prevent him from crossing Jiujiang.

Secondly, it is to safely cross the river with the soldiers and horses of the three powerful families.

After all, they will be soldiers of Wu State from now on.

Rohm and Higashino Kimura also agreed with the matter.

The most important thing now is to prevent the king of Yan from going south and protect Wu from the intrusion of the king of Yan.

In this way, the state of Dasong’s division can be maintained.

Next, they will consider how to further contain King Yan.

After deciding on this matter, the next day, under the leadership of the British fleet, more than 200 warships of Wu State headed north in a mighty way.

They came to Jiujiang Estuary and went upstream.

After another day of sailing, they arrived at the confluence of Yangcheng Canal and Jiujiang.

At this moment, many ships from Jinling are heading towards Yangcheng.

There were also ships coming from the direction of Yangcheng, which were full of soldiers.

They are for transporting soldiers and horses.

Seeing the steamboat with thick smoke on the river, the sons and daughters of the powerful family on the merchant ship were surprised from ear to ear.

Immediately, they fell into ecstasy.

Because, they no longer have to worry about King Yan being able to cross Jiujiang.

Although they don’t know what these smoking monsters are, they must be very powerful.

“It’s amazing.” On a luxurious merchant ship, Xie Duan, Han Zheng, and Wang Zi’an looked at the steamer.

In his letter, Liang Kai told them about the establishment of the Eastern Land Alliance and also mentioned the British fleet.

“Hahaha, the King of Yan lost after all. This steamship is enough to prove the strength of the Eastern Land Alliance. In the future, the King of Yan will be destroyed, and the Eastern Land Alliance must also be destroyed.” Han Zheng laughed.

After they left their soldiers and horses in the trench, they withdrew from Yangcheng immediately.

However, Yanzhou soldiers and horses didn’t seem to have any intention of pursuing them when they saw them withdraw.

Seeing the current situation, he suddenly hoped that King Yan’s troops would come after him, and even cross the river.

In this way, they can definitely win a battle.

Talking and laughing all the way, the merchant ship the three of them were on gradually headed towards Jinling.

From now on, they will be temporarily stationed in Jinling City.

Build trenches and fortifications outside Jinling City, and confront Yan Wang’s soldiers and horses across the river.

South of Yangcheng.

Chang Wei frowned and looked at Yancheng.

When the fleet commanded by Gong Ying was going north, it stopped for a while in Tongcheng they occupied, and sent someone to bring him information about the British steamship.

Then, the powerful soldiers and horses in Yangcheng today evacuated southward through the canal.

He did not order the attack.

Because the powerful clan left behind the broken soldiers and horses.

Since they were going to evacuate, why didn’t he wait for them to evacuate completely, and then take down Yangcheng without bloodshed.

After that, they marched westward and took Xiangcheng with Ma Han, completely controlling the north of Jiujiang.

As for the powerful clans who hid in the Jiujiang River, to them, they were just toothless tigers locked in a cage.

When their steamship launches and kills the fleet of the Britons, it will be their downfall.
