Xiao Letian was speechless at the moment, he was very familiar with Gordon, he was a well-known figure in history, the vanguard of British colonialism, and a good hand in foreign expansion.

Xiao Letian is not sure if this person is Benjamin's descendant, but he knows very well that this person's thoughts are the same as Benjamin's, and he is definitely not the same as Gladstone and others.

In the Second Opium War, Gordon did not receive an order from the army to join the war, but he used his personal connections to take the initiative to ask to participate in the war, or chased him halfway by merchant ship.

After the war, he did not return to Europe with the large army, but chose to stay in China to look for opportunities, and finally let him wait for the springboard of the Changsheng army.

In this era, the management of nationality by governments is still very lax, and meritocracy is the mainstream, so Gordon's position as Admiral in Britain does not have any conflict with his work in the British army.

On the contrary, his outstanding performance in China gave him a lot of points, and since he returned from China, the British military office immediately promoted him to colonel, which laid a solid foundation for his future promotion to general.

If Xiao Letian's memory is not wrong, Gordon ended up dying in battle near Khartoum, the capital of the African Republic of Sudan, and Gordon's death was directly related to Gladstone.

At that time, Gordon was already a general and authorized to command all the Egyptian armies, and he was commanding the army to quell the rebellion in Khartoum, but at this time British Prime Minister Gladstone chose to give up all the interests of Sudan.

To put it bluntly, this colony was not wanted, but at that time, there were still a group of belligerent people and officials in Britain who demanded that they not give up, and they delayed sending reinforcements under the struggle against each other.

When Gladstone's reinforcements finally arrived in Khartoum, they found that Gordon had died there.

Gordon can be said to be the representative of the army in the British colonial faction, and he has a very legendary color, and his war experience has a very popular base among the people.

It is said that this guy also believes in mysticism, and is willing to study local religion and black witchcraft anywhere, and even studied Taoism and Buddhism in China.

Such a general full of strange elements is destined to be a legend, and it is natural for him to get the attention of the people.

The news of Gordon's death made the queen furious! She angrily denounced Gladstone's inaction and condemned this act of not saving him.

And this is the last straw for Gladstone to step down, the queen doesn't like you anymore, then the people who love the queen will give up on you, Gladstone can only step down in the end.

Xiao Lotian shook his head, putting aside the distractions in his mind, he could already be sure that Gordon's current extremely humble posture must have been instructed by Benjamin, and it seemed that the British colonialists were determined to bet on Jae Chun.

At this moment, Emperor Tongzhi has already stepped into the trap of the British colonialists.

"Your Majesty...... I've heard a lot about dual citizenship, but I don't think I've heard of it yet......

Xiao Lotian wanted to remind Zaichun in disguise that even if Gordon had fought in China, he was also British, and this kind of person couldn't be too trusted.

But before Jae-chun could speak, Benjamin behind him came over and said with a smile, "Of course, Britain wants our own talents to shine all over the world......"

"Our ideal is to shine the glory of the civilized world to the whole world, and Sir Gordon is excellent, and we are very impressed by all his efforts in China!"

"I even hope that there will be more Sir Gordon in the British Empire, so that more countries in the medieval world can move towards the civilized world......"

Xiao Letian scolded in his heart, bullshit civilization, your ideal is to colonize the world, plunder resources and dump industrial products, this is your ideal, what kind of big-tailed wolf to pretend?

Looking at Zai Chun's expression with a confused expression, Xiao Letian sighed in his heart, knowing that this apprentice might be difficult to turn back, as long as he smiled and nodded, he didn't say anything again.

Gordon's appearance is destined to be just a small episode, the welcome ceremony still has to continue, and after the guests and hosts shake hands, it is naturally a double speech, which is also the highlight of all reporters' expectations.

The red carpet is spread on the podium, surrounded by flowers, and the smell is fragrant!

Under the podium were dozens of journalists from European countries, the front row sat on the floor and took out their notebooks to prepare shorthand, while the reporters in the back operated a tripod and prepared to take pictures.

First of all, Benjamin gave a welcome speech, and the experienced prime minister did not need to write a script, and played a vivid impromptu speech on the spot, which was foaming at the mouth.

Starting from the long history of China and Britain, he also talked about the economic and trade exchanges between the two sides since ancient times, and even the grand occasion when Britain congratulated Emperor Qianlong on his birthday during the Qianlong period.

The hypocritical polite words were pulled out like running water, and Gladstone and others who listened secretly pouted, and as for the two Opium Wars, Benjamin simply described them as two small frictions.

After Liang Kunluo Huo and other hot-tempered generals heard this, they were almost angry, "Fuck, I burned the Old Summer Palace, and there was a little friction......?

"Shut up, what kind of place is this, don't talk nonsense! Have you forgotten the discipline of the Führer?"

The prime minister's speech, which was originally planned to be ten minutes, actually dragged Benjamin into twenty-five minutes, which made Xiao Lotian can't help but smell a hint of conspiracy.

The unnutritious speech was finally over, and then Gladstone and others also came to the stage to deliver a simple welcome speech, so that the cabinet's welcome ceremony came to an end, and according to the plan, Emperor Tongzhi and Xiao Letian should each make a speech of less than ten minutes at this moment.

This was followed by a small military parade, followed by a guard of honour disembarking from the Chinese community before the British public and heading to the cathedral where the crown prince was waiting.

But just now Benjamin and his subordinates had wasted an extra half an hour, Wang Huaiyuan frowned and looked at his pocket watch, and couldn't help but worry in his heart.

"Why is the schedule disrupted? The time of the luncheon and dinner cannot be changed, so if it is delayed like this, how should the plan be arranged in the middle?"

"There must be a conspiracy, there must be a conspiracy......"

Wang Huaiyuan got up and leaned into Xiao Letian's ear and whispered his worries, but Xiao Letian raised his hand to stop him, "I know, I feel this way too...... Let's see the move, don't worry! Look, Jae-chun is on stage, let's wait a while......"
