"Eight hundred miles southwest of the urgency!"

In the middle of summer in June, the weather is extremely hot.

Just experienced a rainstorm, the weather in Luoyang City is even hotter.

A fast horse broke into the Wu'anmen Gate in the west of Luoyang and went straight to the direction of the military headquarters.

On the horse, a soldier's face was covered with sweat, and his clothes were already soaked, but looking at the anxious look on his face, it was obvious that something was wrong with the southwest.

"Bang!"

In the Chen'an Palace, looking at the urgent recital sent by Zhang Guangzhi, the governor of Yungui, Zhang Lingyang couldn't contain the anger on his face at all.

Below, Feng Zuoliang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Zheng Yongji, the first assistant of the cabinet, Ma Jinzhong, the Houma Jinzhong of Xining, and Sun Dingzong, the general of the army, all lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to breathe.

"The British governor in Tianzhu actually sent troops to attack Burma brazenly, this is a month ago, in order to report now?" Looking at the black veil on Feng Zuoliang's head, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Zhang Lingyang asked.

"Your Majesty, according to the letter of Zhang Guangzhi, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, the British did attack Burma a month ago. However, at that time, in order to prevent our Great Zhou army from stationing, Burma deliberately concealed this situation.

Now that Zhang Guangzhi has received the news, it is obvious that the Burmese side can't stand it, so he asked me for help. ”

"What do you think should be done about this?" Zhang Lingyang asked.

"Naturally, it's a war with England!" As soon as Zhang Lingyang's words fell, Xining Hou Ma Jinzhong spoke, "Your Majesty, no matter what you say, Myanmar is a vassal state of my Great Zhou. If I don't move, I'm afraid that the English side will think that my Da Zhou is afraid of them, and they will be even more unscrupulous in the future.

Therefore, in Wechen's view, he should immediately declare war on England and send a large army into Burma to completely crush the English invasion army. ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a different opinion!" At this time, Zheng Yongji, the first assistant of the cabinet, came out and said, "As far as Weichen knows, the British governor in Tianzhu is like a prince, and this time to send troops to Burma, whether it is the meaning of England or the meaning of the governor of Tianzhu himself, this is two things to say."

Therefore, Weichen thinks that it is time to summon Wilson, the British ambassador to Zhou, to inquire first! ”

"What Elder Zheng Ge said is extremely true, and Weichen also thinks so!" Chen Yiming, the secretary of the ministry, also came out to echo Zheng Yongji's views.

"Since that......'s the case," Zhang Lingyang muttered for a moment, and ordered: "Immediately send an edict to Zhang Guangzhi, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and order him to lead his mountain battalion to enter Burma to resist the British invasion."

In addition, summon Wilson to the palace to see me! ”

"But Your Majesty, this time the Governor of Tianzhu sent troops to Burma, we still don't know if this is the opinion of England? Your Majesty is doing this, will it cause England to misunderstand my Great Zhou? Zheng Yongji persuaded.

"Regardless of whether there is a misunderstanding or not, since the Governor of Tianzhu dares to offend my Great Zhou Tianyan, I will make them pay the corresponding price.

You Aiqing don't need to persuade again, just do it! ”

"Your Ministers obey!"

Seeing that Zhang Lingyang had made up his mind, everyone could only retreat.

Half an hour later, Wilson entered the Chen'an Hall in English time.

"I don't know what His Majesty the Emperor summoned the foreign ministers?" Wilson didn't know about the Governor of Tianzhu sending troops to invade Burma, so he asked such a question.

When he learned about this from Zhang Lingyang, Wilson was obviously stunned, and hurriedly defended: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou, the foreign ministers have never received any domestic news about the declaration of war against the Great Zhou, obviously this is the Governor of Tianzhu himself.

I also ask His Majesty the Emperor to put out his anger for the time being, and wait for the foreign ministers to write a letter back to China to explain the situation, I wonder what His Majesty the Emperor thinks? ”

"From Da Zhou to England, it will take at least half a year to come and go, but I am afraid that when you receive a reply from China, the daylily will be cold.

Just now, I have already ordered the Governor of Yungui to lead troops into Burma, where to go, Wilson, you can weigh it yourself! ”

After speaking, Zhang Lingyang ordered Xiaofuzi to send Wilson out of the palace.

"This damn Frank brazenly sent troops to Burma and stayed in Tianzhu for so long, could it be that he really regarded himself as the king of a country?"

Back at the embassy, Wilson angrily slammed several teacups in a row, still unable to contain the anger in his heart.

Staying in Da Zhou for the past few years, Wilson has a clear understanding of Da Zhou's national strength.

If the Great Zhou was only rich in the past, then the current Great Zhou has a national strength that is not inferior to that of England after a certain degree of industrialization.

"This matter must be made clear to Her Majesty the Queen, the behemoth of the Great Zhou, the empire cannot be shaken." Thinking of this, Wilson couldn't care less about being angry, and hurriedly repaired a book, ordering someone to hurry up and send it back to China.

In less than half a day, the people of the entire Luoyang City knew about the fact that the small Xiyi country of England had sent troops to invade Burma, a vassal state of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the ambassadors of several other countries in the embassy area naturally also knew about it.

In particular, the French ambassador Pierre, when he heard about it, couldn't help but pour a glass of red wine to celebrate.

God knows how much France has been suppressed by England overseas in recent years. If it weren't for the fact that France is a traditional army power on the European continent, I'm afraid that France now has no capital to compete with England.

Well, now that England didn't know how to anger the behemoth of Da Zhou, I am afraid that it will not be long before England's colonies in South Asia and Southeast Asia will be completely smashed.

The damage to England was obviously of great benefit to France.

Pierre even hoped that the relationship between the Great Zhou and England would be completely broken, so that France could reap greater benefits from the Great Zhou.

Of course, this is just wishful thinking on the part of Pierre.

As a traverser, Zhang Lingyang still understands how strong the naval combat power of Yingli, the sea hegemon, is.

The empire on which the sun never sets is not just boasted.

Therefore, before the critical moment, Zhang Lingyang will not declare a full-scale war on England.

Of course, if Yingli harms the interests of Da Zhou, then Zhang Lingyang doesn't mind teaching Yingli how to behave. At least in East Asia, the voice of the Great Zhou can still be the master.

Besides, England's navy is indeed very powerful, but just because it is a navy does not mean that their land is also very strong.

In fact, the English army is only a second-rate army in Europe at best.

Whether it is France, the Rus' country, or the Prussian army, the combat power is much stronger than that of England.

After the initial reform of the Great Zhou army, its combat power is not weak, and Zhang Lingyang is confident that it is at least much stronger than the British army, so Zhang Lingyang is so fearless when he sends troops to Burma this time......
