Chapter 358: Waiting for the Brit to Enter the Urn!
Liang Pengfei rolled his eyes at him and cleared his throat: "Hong Kong Island, don't you all understand, our future nest has been preparing a generous gift for several months, and is ready to be brought to the table and invited the British into the urn." ”
"Yes, the old man can't wait, I really want to see the faces of those Yingyi at that time, and the old man also wants to see what kind of face the court will be like if the court knows that those Yingyi who can't even clean up the court have been cleaned up by us pirates." Liang Yuanxia, a big official of Liang, was chatting on a huge cigar, with a hideous smile on his face, and the ruthlessness of the old pirate was undoubtedly revealed.
His sons have already done this, Liang Yuanxia will naturally only support, where will he oppose it, he has no good impression of this court, otherwise, why should the old Liang family live at sea for generations licking blood?
Liang Yuanxia is a pirate, a character who has gambled for decades, and he has seen his son's actions bit by bit, remembered it in his heart, and saw that his son has worked hard to get out of the current situation in just a few years, and he realized that he is no longer underestimating his son, but underestimating this guy's ambition.
However, every step he took seemed to be dangerous, but when it came to the end, you realized that the seemingly inconspicuous little things he had done before actually worked, allowing him to step on the peak of success one after another.
Looking at his son's familiar face, Liang Yuanxia really has a feeling that he is old, but it is more of an excitement and pride, his son is actually such an amazing character, which father will not be proud?
Anyway, Liang Yuanxia deeply knows that everything his son has done, he can't help too much as a father, but Liang Daguan still has work to do, that is, it is right to urge his son to have a few more children, and leave a few more roots for our generations of old Liang family.
"Don't worry, my lord, all the arrangements around Hong Kong Island have been completed, and those heroes will only come and go this time." Chen Tianbao suppressed the excitement in his heart and replied loudly.
"However, Hong Kong Island is so close to the mainland, if you do something there, so it attracts attention, the army of the court is right in front of you." Liang Yuanxia glanced at everyone present and landed his gaze on Liang Pengfei's face.
--------------------
"Dad, you can rest assured, my son is the chief soldier of the Sailor Division of Humen Town, these words have already been arranged, the land south of Xin'an County is rarely populated, and the south of Jiulong Mountain, it is all the territory of the Tan family, and now, the Tan family has joined forces with us, and the land of more than 20 miles near Kowloon Bay is now arranged for our people and the Tan pirates, just waiting for those British to obediently drive the battleship into it and give it to our old Liang family, tsk, tsk, It's all three-masted warships or more. As soon as Liang Pengfei mentioned those things, his eyes were like gold, radiating an uncompelling brilliance.
"That's right, it's all from our old Liang family, wahahaha......" Liang Daguan smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into two slits. Okay son, you juniors make trouble on your own, Dad still has something to go back to accompany your mother, brothers, the old man will go first. ”
"Congratulations to the old man (old man), ......" Everyone quickly stood up and saluted Liang Pengfei's father. You must know that this old pirate who has been crisscrossing the sea for decades is Liang Pengfei's father, so naturally no one dares to slack off.
"Okay, let's all sit down, this time on Hong Kong Island, what we have to do is not to annihilate the enemy, but, to fight for prisoners, the more the better, so, you must be prepared to fight a protracted war, mines can only trap their warships, but they can't trap their land landing, so Shuisheng, the Jiulong Mountain defense line will be handed over to you, be sure not to let those heroes cross Jiulong Mountain one step."
"Young master, rest assured, the artillery and infantry positions on Jiulong Mountain have been constructed, even if the whole army of Yingyi arrives, the small one is confident to hold Jiulong Mountain." Liang Shuisheng stood up and stood up straight to Liang Pengfei and assured.
"Well, I know this, in addition, I will transfer two more battalions to you, as a reserve, and Brother Mo, your task seems simple, but in fact it is the most important, because Kowloon Bay is not long, so after all the British warships enter Kowloon Bay, your people must complete the minelaying in the shortest possible time, and the main force of the British warships must be trapped in Kowloon Bay." Liang Pengfei turned his face to Mo Guanbao next to him and said, this former leader of the Black Flag Gang has already joined Liang Pengfei's command.
"Don't worry, my lord, according to your orders, these children, these days, the children are conducting actual combat drills every day. As long as there are enough small boats, with the boating skills of our Tan family, and less than two pillars of incense, we can make Kowloon Bay full of mines at both ends, and at that time, except for small sampans and small boats under 3,000 stone that can enter and exit freely because of the shallow draft, those three-masted battleships of Yingyi will not even be able to find a crack. Mo Guanbao patted his chest and replied loudly.
"Well, that's about it, well, now the only thing we need to do is sit back and wait for the British to come and take over their colony Hong Kong Island. I really hope that day will come soon, I'm almost impatient......" Liang Pengfei's extremely affectionate and longing gaze, as well as the deep resentful woman-like tone, made everyone present shudder.
Only ten days or so after the British left the Yangtze River, a series of changes took place at the top of the court in Yanjing. A Gui, the first assistant of the dynasty, began to be active in the political arena in the early years of Qianlong, and the Manchu celebrities who entered the prime minister in the Qianlong Dynasty finally fell in the last years of Qianlong, and had a stroke on the way back to Beijing after negotiating with Yingyi. After returning to Beijing, Qianlong personally visited him, commended his merits, and allowed him to become a minister.
When the minister of the study and Shen negotiated with Yingyi, he spoke righteously and quoted scriptures, so that Yingyi was ashamed and convinced, and he was specially given a three-eyed dazzle and promoted to the first assistant of the study.
The general Fukangan commanded several provinces of land and water soldiers and horses to resist the enemy, so that Yingyi could not attack Jiangning Mansion, and, tied Yingyi's hands and feet, so that Yingyi panicked, did not dare to leave the Yangtze River waterway easily, into the canal to make trouble, specially given three-eyed flower, mink tail coat.
As for the Liangjiang Governor Shulin's disregard for the grace of the saints, the people of Liangjiang suffered from the invasion of the Yi people, and the officials were dismissed, the Liangjiang Governor Chang Qing was dismissed from his post, and the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Wu Lana, was ineffective in supervising the Fujian Naval Division, and was succeeded by the Yingyi, losing his generals, humiliating the national body, and cutting his post for the people. Zhao Honglin, the general of the Chenghai Battalion of Nanao Town, Fujian Naval Division, was cowardly in battle, causing Pao Ze to be trapped in the hands of Yingyi and beheaded ...... However, the naval divisions of the provinces were slacking off in the face of the enemy, missing the fighter plane, and losing the Yingyi straight into the Yangtze River, shaking the world. Therefore, no matter which province you are a naval general, you will all be demoted by one rank, but you still hold your own position, which is equivalent to staying for probation. However, the Humen Town Department is the only exception, and Liang Pengfei still leads the post of the chief military officer of Humen Town with the rank of chief soldier. And Wu Qianjin, the new chief soldier of Exhaustion Stone Town, did not receive any reckoning after the autumn, after all, he couldn't count their heads if he wanted to, after all, the court had just taken him as a model, so he was naturally embarrassed to slap himself.
--------------------
"It's less than a day's journey from Hong Kong Island, to be honest, I am very happy and excited, this is the victory of the British Empire, the victory of Western civilization, we let this ancient and huge empire understand our Western superiority, let them deeply realize that the world is not revolving around them." At this point, Macartney stopped his pen and looked up at the window, where the white of the fish belly had begun to appear in the east, and the horizon could be clearly distinguished.
"It's been a whole night?" Macartney muttered quietly, blew out the candle on the table, stretched hard, and decided to go to the deck to blow the sea breeze, which had come to the south, where winter was as warm as spring, and the cool sea breeze in the morning was the most comfortable medicine to soothe the nerves.
When Macartney stepped onto the deck, he couldn't help but be stunned, because he saw the back of Liang Sanhuai, who was squatting in a strange position, his hands constantly gesturing with various gestures.
Just when Macartney was stunned, Liang Sanhuai was slowly closing his momentum, and said without looking back: "Your Excellency, you got up so early. ”
"Liang, you didn't look back, how do you know it's me?" Macartney was even more surprised, and walked towards Liang Sanhuai while taking a step.
"It's easy, because I hear your footsteps, Your Excellency the Ambassador." Liang Sanhuai only turned around at this time and gestured to the head of the Macartney.
"Liang, how many times have I said it, call me George. My friends call me that, and I want you to do the same, can't our long-term co-operation not allow me to gain your friendship? Dear Liang. "Macartney is serious.
A hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Liang Sanhuai's mouth: "Okay, Mr. George, good morning." ”
"Good morning, Beam. Hehe, look, it's not difficult to call me that. My friend. Macartney took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and after making a few chest expansion movements, he smiled at Liang Sanhuai and said, "You know, I didn't feel sleepy at all night yesterday. ”
"See, Mr. George, you must be overly excited." Liang Sanhuai smiled and walked to the side of the boat and said.
"yes, this one was like a dream, and every time I woke up, I would ask myself, have we really defeated this vast empire?" Macartney drew a cross on his chest. "Yes, we have come to the East and knocked on the door of this empire. If we return to my homeland, we will be greeted with cheers and applause. ”
"Of course, Mr. George, I am sure that if you are able to return to the British Isles." The corners of Liang Sanhuai's mouth curled slightly, and his smile was very sincere, but in his sight looking at the sea, there were countless mockery and banter.
