Chapter 623: Return to Ganzhou Mansion (2)

"Well, I believe you."

Ling Jingyang had to trust Edmund, but he didn't pin his hopes on Edmund.

According to the information sent by the Special Bureau, the Royal Cavalry Regiment not only arrived ahead of schedule, but also eliminated thousands of Dutch troops, dominating the heart of East Asia, and jumped on paper.

He watched Edmund tidy up his makeup, take five guards, and ride to the Royal Cavalry Regiment, he did not impose martial law in the city, but took the lead in the celebration, which greatly stabilized the morale of the army in the city, and only a few high-ranking generals knew that the British were about to arrive in Huizhou City.

At this time, dozens of fast horses left the city from the east gate, and these cavalry rushed to He Zhen and Shi Tie's army to deliver Ling Jingyang's military order to the two.

Zhao Tu is very clever, although Ling Jingyang verbally trusts Edmond, he can send information from Ling Jingyang to Jin Sheng, Shi Tie, and He Zhen.

He felt that Ling Jingyang would give up Huizhou City, and even the entire Huizhou Mansion would give up.

After he led the army to stay in Boluo County, he actively prepared for war here, and that night, Jin Dashou led 2,000 young men to transport most of the grain and grass from Huizhou City to Boluo County.

The dark clouds of war once again loomed over the city of Huizhou.

Only Edmund was full of confidence and ran towards the Royal Cavalry Regiment with his guards, he only did not know where the Royal Cavalry Regiment went, but as long as he followed the main road, he would definitely be able to join the Royal Cavalry Regiment.

Sure enough, he galloped forty kilometers southwest of Huizhou City, and finally saw the forward troops of the Royal Cavalry Regiment before dark.

He shouted to the soldiers of the Household Cavalry Regiment that he had come to ask to see Prince Henry, Sir Edmund of the British Empire.

The Royal Cavalry Regiment knew from Henry to the private that Edmund was the supreme commander of the empire in China, although after the arrival of Prince Henry, Edmund's status would be leaned back, but after all, Edmund had been in Guangdong for a period of time and was familiar with this place.

The forward unit was a cavalry company, and when the company commander heard Edmund's voice, he also responded to him, asking Edmund to go with him to meet the Prince.

Led by the commander of the cavalry company, Edmund finally arrived at the barracks, where Prince Henry was drinking with the deputy commander.

The sweltering climate of Canton made Prince Henry uncomfortable, but the thought of the thousands of Dutch soldiers killed today made Prince Henry's heart swell with pride.

The deputy head of the regiment took a sip of wine and talked to him about the pope, but united the countries of Europa

Defeat the Fuso, dominate the world, and then the empire will compete with the Dutch.

He didn't understand why Henry had rebelled and had made an unequal treaty with the Dutch instead of the Dutch 2nd Infantry Regiment after destroying the Dutch forces along the coast.

Will this cause the Dutch to declare war on the British Empire?

"The Dutch are a fart, are they capable of attacking my British Isles?"

"Your Highness, the Dutch Navy is also very strong."

Speaking of the Dutch Navy, Henry smiled.

"As far as the Dutch fleet is concerned, don't forget that the empire also has a fleet, and the Spaniards are always thinking about the Dutch fleet, this time we let the Dutch knock out their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs."

The deputy head nodded, and Henry wanted him to convey the latest goal, to capture Huizhou Mansion within three days, and gain a foothold in the land of China for the British Empire.

If he continues to look for Edmund and Jackson and others, he doesn't believe that so many people will die cleanly.

The two talked about Edmund, and it happened that the commander of the cavalry company came with Edmund.

"Report to Your Highness, Sir Edmund asks to see you."

Henry and the deputy head of the regiment widened their eyes, and then they lit up again.

The deputy regiment commander hurriedly asked the company commander to bring Edmund quickly.

After a while, Edmund came to Henry in despair.

"Your Highness, I greeting you."

Henry looked at Edmund and mocked him.

"Edmund, do you still have the face to come back? The grenadier regiment was lost by you, I led the Royal Cavalry Regiment to land in Huizhou Mansion, and I didn't see you to pick it up, even if I was in Macau, forcing the Francois to sign an agreement, I didn't see half a shadow of you, did you find a cave to play with women? ”

was reprimanded by Prince Henry, and Edmond didn't dare to raise his head.

Henry asked him again, how many soldiers and horses did the British Empire have in Guangdong?

Edmund hurriedly replied that he still had more than six hundred men, but after losing more than a hundred in the battle with the Dutch, more than four hundred remained, including the remnants of the grenadier regiment.

"Oh, it's not that the whole army has been wiped out, you still have some ability, by the way, you just said that you went to war with the Dutch?"

Edmund succeeded in diverting the conversation to the Netherlands

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Lan Ren, he added to Henry that the Dutch were too powerful in East Asia and supported the Ming warlord Zheng Zhilong and the Longwu court supported by Zheng Zhilong.

The Dutch occupied almost half of China, and as a knight of the British Empire, he thought about the interests of the empire at every turn.

So he led the remnants of the Bullet Control Regiment and the soldiers and horses in Guangzhou, and formed an alliance with the Ming Hongguang court to resist the Dutch to further expand their sphere of influence.

I have to say that Edmond's words speak to Prince Henry's heart, although the Dutch lost a lot of soldiers and horses in Huizhou, but the Dutch still have a large army in Jiangxi, Fujian and Taiwan Island.

Edmund united with the Ming court against the Dutch, which was a very good move.

But Prince Henry thought of the grenadier regiment again, and heard Thiago say that the grenadier regiment was defeated by the Ming army.

He asked Edmund which side of the Ming army had defeated the grenadiers?

"This... This is a misunderstanding, it was a contradiction between the military department of the Hongguang Imperial Court and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, which led to the Hongguang Imperial Court army attacking the grenadier regiment, which led to the almost total annihilation of the grenadier regiment. ”

At this time, Edmund still didn't know that Ling Jingyang, Plugging Yinxi, and Jin Sheng's infighting were made for them to see.

Prince Henry is an old fox of the royal family, and he absolutely does not believe in the infighting in the Hongguang court, and the final loss is the power of the British.

Without waiting for him to speak, Edmund continued to talk eloquently, "Your Royal Highness, I am with Ling Jingyang, the governor of the five armies of the Hongguang Imperial Court, who was stationed in Huizhou City, and defeated the siege of the Dutch army yesterday, so that the Dutch did not occupy most of the territory of Guangdong. ”

Henry repeatedly asked Edmond how the infighting in the Hongguang court could trigger his army to attack the grenadier regiment, and what was the origin of the Hongguang court's military headquarters and the five armies' governor's mansion?

Edmund told him that the military department was the department responsible for military training in the Hongguang Imperial Court, and it was a life-and-death rival with the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and that the two departments were incompatible after the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

He crackled and said a lot, and the more Henry listened, the angrier he became, and he slapped Edmund with stars in both eyes.

"Let me ask you why the soldiers and horses of the Hongguang Imperial Court attacked the grenadier regiment, is it the force of the Hongguang Imperial Court Military Department, or is it the Governor's Mansion of the five armies of the Hongguang Imperial Court attacking the grenadier regiment?"

The deputy head of the regiment also threatened Edmund to send him to the gallows if he continued to talk nonsense.
