The night had sunk and there was no longer a single light in sight in the west, and the Thames estuary was completely dark, with the long banks of the towns and villages dotted with lights and the various ships on the river and sea flickering like a galaxy of lights.

"Brother, I'm afraid your two doctrines are unrealistic, the first we can't agree to such harsh conditions from the British, and the second we can't leave here at the moment, now that the British navy has surrounded us, you think they will let us go to Prussia?"

Xiao Letian stretched out his hand to point to more than 30 British ** ships moored on the sea, the dense lights outlined the outline of the battleship, and the sailors could faintly hear the singing of the sailors on the deck.

"It's very laid-back, isn't it? But let me tell you, as long as the British Prime Minister gives the order, they will tear off the mask of hypocrisy in three minutes, and we will not be able to escape here at all......"

Xiao Letian's murderous words made the people present shudder, and Fang Guan said in shock, "It's not so ugly, right? After all, we are envoys? Can you still detain us and not ......?"

Xiang Ying said coldly: "The strong are respected between countries, strength is the truth, is there still less massacre of envoys in human history? Britain wants to be a gentleman, and if it is shameless, it is a hooligan......"

"The Führer is right, Britain's attempt to contain us is very obvious, how can they let us go smoothly to join Prussia? You know, the example of the Austro-Prussian war is ahead, and the war between us and Tsarist Russia has proved our strength, and Britain will definitely not let us go on like this again......"

Xiao Letian closed the porthole, "Yes, if you want to solve the British obstacle now, you have to rely on intrigue and trickery, and it is not possible to leave or pretend not to see it......"

"Sit, everyone sit, while there are all the people today, let's discuss it......"

Everyone put down their wine glasses, and the drinking party immediately turned into a tea party, and everyone present took out their notebooks and began to record.

"Let's first sort out the objectives of this mission to Europe, and we must clarify the purpose in order to have a target!"

"When we came to Europe, the first important task was to participate in the Franco-Prussian War, and I tell you very clearly that Prime Minister Bismarck and I have secretly passed the gas, and the specific time of the war is next year, and we have less than a year to carry out diplomatic activities, and after entering 1870, we must rush to the Prussian soldiers' unity......"

"We have two major enemies now, one is that Tsarist Russia has already cut off a claw by us, and it should not be able to turn over the waves in four or five years, and the other enemy is France!"

"I will not repeat the seriousness of the problem, if Napoleon III does not completely defeat this time, then the return will be the end of our Chinese nation, if France and Prussia reach a peace agreement, let France concentrate all its national strength against us!"

"It's a pity, no matter how hard we try, failure is a high probability thing!"

"Therefore, the popularization of law must be fought, and they must be completely subdued on the battlefield, so that the Chinese can develop safely!"

"Moreover, if we win the victory in the popularization of law, the status of our Chinese in the international community will be greatly improved, and if we can defeat Tsarist Russia and France in a row, then our Chinese will at least win the respect of all other countries except Britain!"

"This is the first task, and it must be completed! Then the second task is to sign various treaties with the major European powers through diplomatic activities after victory, and of course the more the better!"

"With a peace treaty, it means that these European countries will officially recognize our Chinese nationality as an independent and sovereign country, and only then will they be able to send ambassadors to each other, conduct in-depth commercial trade, and carry out scientific, cultural, and political exchanges......

"The two tasks are actually coherent and sequential, first we must be able to enter the war, and secondly we must be able to win, and then we must be qualified to negotiate on an equal footing with the arrogant governments of Europe......"

"But I didn't expect that the British actually saw through our strategy, they wanted to cut off our plan at the source, they didn't want us to participate in this war at all, they just wanted the glory of the first summit-level exchange between the East and the West in human history......"

"We're just like toilet paper, we're going to throw it away when it's used up, and we're going to burn it when we're even gone!"

Xiao Letian's fingers kept tapping on the table: "Brothers, how poisonous is this Englishman's heart! If we lose the opportunity to participate in the war, then we will not be able to borrow the power of Prussia, coupled with their uninterrupted discord......

"I have a hunch that the hot welcome ceremony will be followed by a long period of neglect...... They will trap us and not engage in any substantive negotiations, and even if there are negotiations, they will only come up with more harsh terms than Gladstone said!"

"If you agree, our Chinese will become a semi-colonial country, if you don't agree, then we are not even a country, I'm afraid even our lives will have to be lost here......"

Bang! The crowd present was excited, and one by one they were angry with Xiao Letian's prophecy, and Hyotaro and Noheita gritted their teeth with the ruthlessness of a Japanese wild samurai.

"In that case, let's fight!

The veteran Liang Kun sighed and shook his head, "Fight? How to fight? Are you fighting the navy or the army? How can we fight? No matter how powerful the Zhiyuan is, it can't stand a group of wolves!"

Hyotaro took out his sword with a loud sigh and stabbed it on the wooden table, "Then the jade will be burned! Tomorrow at the welcome ceremony, I will be the commando leader, capture the Queen of England and the Prime Minister, and use them as meat tickets!"

"If you don't let us go back, we'll tear up the ticket!"

"Nonsense!" "When the king heard the broken words, he became angry, "sit down and put away the knife! You say that if you take the queen prisoner, you will take the queen? When the British army is all pigs?"

"The pride of the British Empire is not something you can imagine at all, the queen is very strong, and the first Opium War is the final decision made by this queen!"

"You kidnap the queen? Even if you succeed, the whole of Britain will be burned in the same way, and even if they give up the life of the queen, they will not lose the dignity of the empire! Don't forget that the British crown prince is in the prime of life, and he is waiting for this succession!"

"When the time comes, Britain will use the lives of all our Chinese people as a funeral, and then it will not be as simple as slaughtering millions!"

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, do we have to pinch our noses and let others slaughter us?"

Sima Yun pulled Bingtaro's sleeve, "Sit down, the Führer must have made arrangements in advance, otherwise how could the prince go to meet the leader of the opposition party?
