Chapter 921: Houghton's Fury

On the sea, several high-ranking generals had just reached an agreement on the next affairs, and before they could discuss how to act, a large ship appeared on the sea, and a signal flag kept waving, signaling the other party to ask to approach. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The signal soldier hurriedly ran over and announced: "Generals, there is a ship on the sea that signals and asks to approach our warship!" “

Several people were stunned, and Dundas asked, "What ship?" ”

"It's a small merchant ship, using a signal from our British, asking to approach!"

Dundas frowned and replied, "It's just a merchant ship, let them come over, let's go, let's go out and have a look!" ”

Soon, the merchant ship approached the battleship, and Horton jumped from the merchant ship onto the battleship.

"Houghton? You ......"

Several people knew Horton, and looked at Horton with a look of surprise, he was the supreme commander of the British army on land, a lieutenant general.

Horton is going to be angry with these people, Lao Tzu is dying on land, you guys are so special that you are looking at the sea Haha, along the way, you haven't even found a single cannonball, you are not saving you from death!

"Damn it, bastard! A bunch of bastards! ”

Houghton roared, "What are you doing? What are you doing! Our four-nation alliance fought bloodily in the city of Tianjin, and fought until the last moment, and you guys actually watched the scenery from the sea? Is that how you guys come to help? Bastard! ”

Horton's face turned purple directly, and he was really blown up by anger!

"General Houghton,"

Several people's faces were flushed, and they argued for a whole day, and during this day, they did not launch any attack on the shore at all, and now they were caught by Horton, and they were naturally ashamed.

"This, General Houghton, there is a big accident in the South Seas, the Malay Peninsula has been occupied by Chinese mercenaries, and we are discussing countermeasures......

Dundas replied.

"Talk about it!"

Horton roared angrily: "It's because you discussed and gave up the last chance to attack, and our four-nation alliance army of more than 40,000 people ran out of ammunition and food, and finally was wiped out by the Lu army in one fell swoop!" Why don't you attack, why don't you attack, why don't you attack on the way I came? Lao Tzu would rather be killed by a shell on the road! You cowards, you bastards, shit! ”

Dundas's face turned red, and Bonella on the side asked, "Horton, how did you break through the blockade and get back to the sea?" ”

"Break through the blockade?"

Horton laughed miserably: "I still need a miserable blockade? I was sent out by the Lu army, sent out of the country, the army of more than 40,000 people, casualties, and finally General Bazin and I had to order the remnants of the army to surrender, we have been holding on, and then wait for you to land, and then attack inside and outside, defeat the Lu army, you just waste the best time on the argument! You ......"

Everyone was stunned, the Four-Nation Alliance had surrendered, if it wasn't for Horton's mouth, I'm afraid no one would believe it!

"Impossible! Horton, your forty or fifty thousand troops, holding on to Tianjin City, I don't believe that you will completely collapse so soon! ”

Dundas's face was pale, and he roared angrily, the soldiers of the British Empire surrendered to the Chinese, this is absolutely unforgivable, this is an insult to the British Empire!

"Humph! Dundas, you don't stand and talk without backache, feel that you are on the sea, don't worry about ammunition, supplies, there are supplies in the rear, what about us, all our ammunition has been used up, food has also been used up, there is not even a water source, how can you let us resist? Do you have a choice when a heavy machine gun is held against your head? I don't need you to insult me, when I return to England, I will ask for punishment, even if it is a lifetime imprisonment, I will admit it, but I must accuse you of these wastes, the wastes that cannot be saved! ”

"Calm down, calm down, General Houghton, we definitely didn't mean to laugh at you!"

Bruce on the side said urgently, "The Four-Nation Alliance has all surrendered, what about our French soldiers?" And what about General Bazin? What about General Guyru? ”

"Surrender, all surrendered, don't you surrender, still waiting for the Lu army to slaughter all our remaining more than 20,000 soldiers?"

Houghton said angrily.

Bruce and Mozak on the side were dumbfounded, and General Bazin also surrendered, he is a famous fierce general in the French Empire! This is one of the strong candidates for the future commander of the French army!

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you, this time Lu Jun let me come back, in order to borrow my mouth, ask the two sides to start peace negotiations, he clearly told me, it is peace, not peace, you want to fight, he will accompany you to the end, if you don't want to fight, then sit down and negotiate, as for where to go, then it's up to you, I'm just a lieutenant general, a prisoner, I don't care about everything else! What I need now is calm, rest! ”

As he spoke, Horton glanced at Dundas and Malton on one side.

"Come on, General Fu Horton will go down and rest first, and the rest of the people will follow me to the war room for discussion."

Dundas said in a deep voice.

Two staff officers walked up on one side and walked down with Horton in their arms, and on the other side, Malton sneaked out while others were not paying attention.

"General Horton, if there's anything you haven't said, say it now......"

Blasting everyone out, Marton asked.

"Mr. Marton, before I came, Guo Ye gave me an explanation alone, and he gave me a proposal, that is, to exchange the Philippine Islands for the Malay Peninsula!"

Houghton said in a deep voice.

"With the Philippine Islands, in exchange for the Malay Peninsula?"

Malton was shocked and asked in surprise.

"Yes, now the Philippine Islands and the Malay Peninsula have fallen into the hands of the Chinese, the Chinese Navy and the infantry divisions of the two mercenary regiments control the two areas, if negotiations are launched, we and the Spaniards will ask to take back these two areas anyway, now Guo Ye means that the Malay Peninsula can be returned to us, but the Philippine Islands must be handed over to the Chinese, that is, we must help the Chinese completely drive the Spaniards out of the South Seas!"

"Impossible!"

Malton said angrily, "Why? The Malay Peninsula was ours in the first place, so why should we meet the Malay Peninsula and agree to his conditions? If he doesn't give, then we'll go to war! ”

"Fight a fart!"

Horton said fiercely: "If you want to continue fighting, then have you thought about how much it would cost you to be able to take back the Malay Peninsula without our British Empire?" Those two mercenaries are elite soldiers who have just retired from the American Civil War! (To be continued.) )
