Chapter 6: The Messenger of the West

Vultures hovered above the sky, leaving behind the tragic hiss of the setting sun, unwilling to watch as overlapping corpses were buried.

The breeze of the grassland can't blow away the rich killing and bloody atmosphere.

Vultures followed the bloody breath to the north and west, where panicked Mongolian soldiers threw down their armor, weapons, and shackles and fled in all directions in a panic, chasing streams of light horsemen behind them.

Days of fierce fighting have come to an end at this time.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, and you can escape at night!

Yan Chengfang stood on the hill on his horse, looking at the tragic battlefield and the big banner of the word "Hua" that was still flying high, and the corners of his mouth were hooked proudly. Months of hard work have finally paid off.

However, even with such a result, Yan Chengfang still had no intention of being a class teacher.

"The terrain here is too open, and a large number of enemy troops fled on horseback."

Behind him, the chief of staff spoke.

"So, it's not over yet."

Yan Chengfang said indifferently.

With a slight wave of his palm.

Amid the roar of the trumpets, a large number of cavalry began to assemble, and they followed the direction of the enemy's escape and drove the horses.

"Drive!"

Full of killing atmosphere.

……

"Summons, the King's envoy Greek Blanche!"

A shrill voice came, followed by a row of majestic male voices, until when it finally reached the outside of the palace, it was already as deafening as a sea of mountains.

Greek Blanche straightened his gown, and the majesty of the palace and the momentum in front of him made him bow his head unconsciously.

Obviously, the two sides are allies and equal relations, but at this time, he feels as if he is a subordinate of the other party.

What do you mean by that word?

Fanbang minister.

When he saw the emperor, he was high up in the sky, as if he were sitting in the clouds. Beside him were the ministers in a queue and the sturdy Han general, under the gaze of a pair of eyes, his knees weakened, and he knelt down directly.

It's not just because of that psychological submission, but also because of the fact that after all, there is a demand for people.

Yan Quan waved his hand lightly, dispensing with his courtesy. At this time, a smile appeared on his face:

"My friend Charlie, what do you want you to tell me? Has the rebellion been quelled? Those rebels must have already knelt at his feet, right? ”

"The rebels of the council are still unwilling to submit to our king, of course, our army still has the upper hand, but the rebels are really strong, so the battle continues."

Greck's face was slightly embarrassed, and he muttered as the translator of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs quickly translated his words so that the ministers in the court could hear them.

Although the two sides exchanged letters only a few times, Greck was pleased that the noble emperor regarded his king as a friend, and he thought that his king Charles I would not object.

Yan Quan's face seemed to be smiling, which was different from the news from the London station.

Greck peeked at the emperor's expression, knowing that the other party was afraid of knowing the truth, and couldn't help but lower his head.

In the previous words, it was clear that he was just unwilling to show his cowardice in front of his allies.

After the decisive battle of Nasby, the main force of the royal army suffered an almost devastating blow, and the remaining soldiers basically lost the courage to resist the parliamentary army.

Just when Charles I and his followers were dying, Dahua descended like an angel. They first prevented Charles I from fleeing to Scotland to avoid his capture, and then had Charles I lend him a large sum of money against future taxes from some of England's most prosperous ports.

Then the left hand turned into the right hand, and with a large number of obsolete weapons from the warehouse, the borrowed money was earned.

Later, they also sent a group of instructors to assist Charles I in reorganizing the defense line and training the troops, and after some operations, although the Wang army suffered heavy losses in the previous series of major battles, it was finally able to survive and survive.

However, despite the help of Dahua, and the weakening of the power of the bourgeoisie on the part of the parliament because of Dahua's pouring of cheap goods on Europe, the dominant position of the royal army at the beginning of the war was long gone, and now the general trend has been owned by the parliament, so that now the parliamentary army has begun to encroach on the remaining land of the royal army, and Charles I has no way.

So there was Greck's trip, and his boasting was discovered, which was also quite embarrassing.

Fortunately, Yan Quan didn't mean to humiliate him.

Zu once said that special attention must be paid to the power of Europe and North America, and in Europe, especially to England.

That's why he won't let Charles I be defeated so easily, and it is the best choice for the two sides to continue to fight.

On this side, Greck spoke again. This time, he didn't have any "I am invincible in the world" tone, and he was a little low, asking Yan Quan to continue to support.

"Of course there is no problem. As long as you want, whether it is arms, food, or whatever, I can support it, and I guarantee that the quality is absolutely excellent. ”

Greck was pleasantly surprised when he heard this:

"Emperor of the East, your generosity has exceeded my expectations, and my king will not forget your help to him......"

Yan Quan stopped his words with a smile, but his face fell, and he said:

"It's just that although I am friends with Charlie, this is a state affair after all, even if I want to help you, my cabinet ministers will not agree."

Hearing the talk of the benefits, Greek immediately blinked, and in an instant, two lines of tears flowed:

"Oh, your honorable majesty, you don't know that the protracted war has left our king with a lot of money. Despite your generous support, there is still not much left in the treasury, and the future tax revenues of England's most prosperous ports have been pledged to you......"

"Isn't there all sorts of other taxes?"

Yan Quan interrupted with a smile.

The corners of Greck's mouth twitched, everyone knew that most of the money was not paid by Charles I, and in fact, he mortgaged the taxes of those ports to the Hua Dynasty for the next few decades.

If you mortgage the taxes in the mainland, then it will be unified, what does Charles I rely on to eat?

He fell silent.

Yan Quan was not surprised to see this, the corners of his mouth curled, and he secretly made a gesture to the eunuch beside him.

After a moment of silence, there was the sound of hurried footsteps, and the dusty soldiers were brought in, and they said in a loud voice, their faces full of joy:

"Your Majesty, a great victory! Chengguo defeated the grassland tribes, killed more than 20,000 enemies, captured more than 20,000 prisoners, and captured a large number of cattle, sheep and horses! ”

"Now that our army has recovered the states of the restored bondage, Chengguo Gong has begun to chase and kill the scattered and fleeing enemy troops with cavalry as the main force."
