After lunch, around one o'clock in the afternoon. It's sunny, cloudless time. There were many people standing on the deck of the British battleship Bran, including some high-ranking officers of the British Navy and Qi Shan, the minister of the Manchu Dynasty, who had come to negotiate peace.

At the time of the meal, Richard suggested that after the meal he could watch the military exercises of the British fleet as entertainment. Although they knew that this was a deliberate show of force to intimidate, Qi Shan and other Manchu ministers did not dare to object.

Liu Niu wanted to say a few sarcastic words, but after thinking that this was a good opportunity to directly observe the strength and number of the British navy in the waters of the Pearl River Estuary, he kept silent.

I have to admit that at this time, Britain was basically beating the Manchus in terms of military strength and scientific and technological strength. But in fact, if the Manchu Qing relied on the tactics of crowds, it was not without the power of a war. It's just, hehe......

Standing on the hard and cold deck of the battleship cast in steel and iron, Liu Niu really felt the strength and enormity of the British third-class battleship. The kind of majesty that emanates from the inside out is enough to make people tremble.

Although he was confident that under the leadership of the Dragon God, the Dragon God Sect would inevitably win the war with the British Navy, but I am afraid that it would also pay a lot of price.

The salty sea breeze blew in his face, and there was not a single seagull that was common on weekdays—the neat steel warships and a small number of sail warships sailing on the nearby sea showed a powerful deterrent.

Qi Shan and the other Manchu ministers who had come from Beijing and Tianjin had already shown a slightly frightened look on their faces, and they were apprehensive about these behemoths floating on the sea. In particular, the cold cannon with the black hole hole lined up on the side of the ship was like the big mouth of the fierce beast of the desolation that was selected to devour people in ancient times, it was really terrifying!

Richard gave an instruction to his guards, and a series of instructions were delivered. The behemoth warships on the sea began to move, and the speed was extremely fast, which was definitely not comparable to the wooden warships of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Seeing that, Liu Niu also nodded slightly--now the Guangzhou Navy Division also has two steel warships, all of which have been brought to Humen and hidden in the fjord of the mountain col.

Boom Boom Boom !!

A salvo of swarthy cannons began, and the sea was stormy and the waves were splashing, and the sound was terrifying. Rao is Qishan had seen the majesty of the British fleet once before, and now he was sweating profusely when he saw it again, even his clothes were sweaty, and he couldn't stop wiping his sweat. At the same time, I was even more determined in my heart to negotiate peace.

This is the mentality of the weak.

Fearful, cowardly, and timid as a mouse...... With the slightest intimidation, they succumb to obscenity.

After showing off his force, Richard triumphantly led Qishan and the others to the conference room and began to discuss peace. I have to say that the effect of this intimidation is really obvious!

In fact, when the Manchu Daoguang Emperor who was far away in the capital sent Qi Shan to negotiate peace with the British, he was still quite conceited. At least he felt that he wanted to sign a so-called peace armistice treaty similar to the "Treaty of Nebuchu" that Kangxi had concluded with Russia (although the "Treaty of Nebuchu" was actually very stupid).

It's a pity that Qi Shan's timidity was beyond Daoguang's expectations, and being intimidated one after another has made the defense line in his heart continue to collapse, and the bottom line continues to decline......

According to historical records, in November of the 20th year of Daoguang (November 1840), British Admiral Charles Yilu issued an ultimatum to the weak Qishan, demanding that he sign a series of political and political treaties on behalf of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

This is the unequal treaty that later generations called the "Piercing Treaty"!

The contents include: 1. Cession of Hong Kong to Britain, but the tax revenue will still go to China. 2. Compensation for the confiscation of six million taels of silver coins from the price of opium from British merchants. 3. Recognize the equal status of China and the United Kingdom.

For these terms, Qi Shan did not dare to agree, nor did he dare to report to Emperor Daoguang, so he could only use the traditional means of Chinese "officialdom" to procrastinate and perfunctory, wanting to turn big things into small things and small things into nothing. Fool these Brits.

It's a pity that before serving as the British admiral and commander-in-chief of the invasion fleet, Charles Yilu served as the British commercial director in Guangzhou all the year round, and dealt with the Thirteen Lines every day. Naturally, the virtues of these Chinese officials are known. Knowing that negotiations could not solve the problem, the Manchus must be brought to their knees by force!

So in January of the 21st year of Daoguang (January 1841), the British army brazenly launched an attack and occupied the two fortresses of Humen and Chuanbi (Chen Liansheng was originally killed in this battle). Qi Shan was helpless, so he had to sign the "Nose Piercing Treaty" document proposed by the British......

It's just that the Manchu Qing Dynasty at that time had not yet been beaten, and this treaty was finally vetoed by Emperor Daoguang himself, which led to an even longer war and the signing of the Treaty of Nanjing after the complete defeat......

These are the historical facts of the era in which Zhao Wushuang came.

And in this parallel world, this incident is very similar to real history!

After watching the British fleet exercises, Kishan agreed that he was forced to sign an unequal treaty by Charlie Richard. Naturally, he didn't dare to agree, so he could only beg his grandfather to tell his grandmother to say all the good things, and wanted to delay it first, saying that he would discuss it after returning to Humen.

Liu Niu saw this scene in his eyes and hated it, but he was helpless on the spot. It's just that I have a secret hatred in my heart, and when I return to the station in Humen Town, I will guide the garrison to launch a mutiny and put Qi under house arrest, and I must beat this soft bone well! Then find an opportunity to beat the Xiyi ghost who flaunts his martial arts and has no return.

Two days later, the special envoy who had been in contact with the British army to negotiate peace matters returned to the Humen town station. And through Liu Niu's secret talks with Chen Liansheng and Lu Zhuang, the three of them felt that the time was ripe, and the middle and lower-level generals and ordinary soldiers in the Humen garrison had already expressed their conversion to the Dragon God Sect.

The time has come to launch a political change, change and house arrest Qi Shan!!

According to the records of the secret materials displayed in the museum of the Chinese Divine Kingdom later.

On the night of December 7, the twentieth year of Daoguang (the evening of December 17, 1840), the Liangguang Governor's Mansion in Humen Town was brightly lit, accompanied by fierce fighting and shouting, as if there were two people fighting in the mansion.

However, with such an obvious movement, the Admiral's Mansion and the Garrison General's Mansion near the Governor's Mansion were all in the dark, and there was no reaction.

There are even a large number of taciturn elite soldiers guarding the gate of the Liangguang Governor's Mansion - if you look closely, you can see that these are all reinforcements brought by the Guangzhou Navy, and they are the most devout believers of the Dragon God Sect and the most loyal people of the Dragon God Sect!

(Today's second chapter!) There will be a more later.,Today's 3 more broke out.,It's considered to make up for the lack of change in the previous outbreak period.。 The author is so faithful to his promises, shouldn't everyone be encouraged with recommendation votes and rewards? Haha)
