Chapter Seventy-Four: Reactions from All Sides
News that the Eight-Nation Coalition forces have all been dispatched.
As soon as it came out, it shocked the world.
For example, on the part of the British population.
"Is there a Satan in the East? Tens of thousands of people are going to conquer him alone. Some British people said in shock.
"It must be Satan, otherwise where would there be so many people. Another British citizen confidently said: "But even if it's Satan, so what? We in England are an empire on which the sun never sets, a kingdom of gods." We have the best weapons in the world. ”
"Even Satan must be destroyed. ”
"We are invincible with our top-of-the-line weapons. ”
Other Western countries also reacted similarly.
And on the side of the Qing State.
"Haha, the Eight Western Countries have finally made a move. That's great. Cixi smiled.
"I hope I don't have to die like last time, and then come back to life. Thinking of this, Cixi immediately gritted her teeth. She invited Westerners to deal with He Xuan, a total of two times, and the price she paid was really too great.
If there is a third time, it may have to cede the land of a province directly to be able to pay the bill.
Damn He Xuan!
And the folk of the Qing country.
"Western countries, it's time to strike again. You say, this time, can the Taiping Army stop it?" someone asked curiously.
"I'm afraid, it's hard. The people of the Qing Dynasty said: "The Western countries are the most powerful countries in the world, and they have the most top-notch firepower. Even God can kill everyone to see. ”
"Western barbarians, completely ungodly. ”
"However, didn't I hear that the young king of the Taiping army can become stronger after death and rebirth? Maybe he can resist the Western countries?" someone said curiously.
"That possibility is too small and too small. Western countries are not so easy to block. ”
Even the common people of China don't quite believe that He Xuan can win. To put it bluntly, the image that the Western countries have produced on them is too terrible. It feels simply unstoppable.
On the Japanese side.
Japan's Sanjie, Katsura Kogoro, and Saigo Takamori are not dead yet.
"Haha, the young king of the Taiping Army died again, and the Qing Kingdom was in a hurry, and now the Western countries have taken action again, and he is finished. Saigo Takamori, the bearded man, said happily.
"No, we probably don't have to rejoice too soon. Gui Xiaogoro coughed lightly a few times, coughing up some blood, Gui Xiaogoro actually knew that his life was not long in coming: "The young king of the Taiping Army, I have seen it once. What does he say? It's like a god in the sky, looking down on the earth. ”
"He survived the blows of the Eight Western Countries last time, and he can still come back alive. This time, it will be reborn and appear, and I guess I am somewhat sure, I feel that the eight countries of the West may capsize. ”
Saigo Moritaka didn't care at all about Gui Kogoro's inference: "How is it possible? That's the Western countries, the most powerful force in the world." How could the boat capsize inside the gutter. ”
Katsura Kogoro's eyes were melancholy, looking at the rain under the porch.
And the country of Namla.
The king of Namla, Ganba, heard about the eight countries of the West and sailed towards Namla. He almost burst out laughing: "Hahahaha, come on, come on, it's best to destroy all the Taiping army." ”
"In this way, I can regain the power of my king. ”
In the past few years, the days of the gangba have been hard, the power is all in the hands of the Taiping army, and they don't dare to resist, the military strength of their Nanluo country is weaker than the Taiping army itself, and I heard that there is a big boss behind the Taiping army, the young king, and they dare not resist.
Now, at last, they have seen hope of regaining power.
......
Headquarters in South Romania.
He Xuan, Zhongwang Li Xiucheng, Yang Fuqing and others were all sitting.
In the middle of this, there is a huge map.
This map is centered on the country of Namla.
One by one, the messages came here.
"So far, Britain, France, Germany, the United States, Italy, Russia, Austria, Spain, these eight countries have sent troops. More troops were dispatched than last time. ”
It is said that the British claimed to have sent 15,000 men. ”
"Russia claims to have sent 15,000 men. ”
"France claims to have dispatched 5,000 men. ”
"The United States claims to have dispatched 5,000 troops. ”
"Itali claims to have dispatched 5,000 men. ”
Austria claims to have dispatched 5,000 men. ”
Spain, too, claimed to have sent 5,000 troops. ”
"This battle is not easy to fight. ”
"England, France, Italy, Austria, Spain, Germany, these six countries themselves are next to each other. The fleets of their six countries met in the Black Sea and came at us again. The United States and Russia are the only ones who walk alone. These two countries, which themselves are from the north and south of the world, will not normally meet with the fleets of Britain and other countries first. He Xuan groaned: "I also want to try, now, can I withstand the strafing of the machine gun." ”
"Therefore, it is not suitable to face a large army at the moment, and it is better to team a small force. Russia has a larger army, so let's go to the United States. Five thousand in the United States. He Xuan groaned and made the final decision.
"Your Majesty, please be careful and cherish this trip. Zhongwang Li Xiucheng said.
"Yes. ”
He Xuan cleaned up a little, then added someone to row a boat for himself, and ran directly in the direction of the ocean where the Americans came.
......
The American fleet, a total of five thousand people, came in three ships.
Three, all of which are now the most popular steamships.
And this time, the United States also dispatched Major General Legpen.
Legpen, the major general, is still quite young, only about thirty years old, with a big beard under his chin. Major General Legpen smoked a cigar and secretly thought that this time, he also wanted to see what the mysteries of the British tactics were.
Now Britain is still the world's largest power.
Even the United States wants to learn from the United Kingdom.
Also, what kind of monster is that young king of the Chinese Taiping Army? He was shot into the sea with a machine gun back then, and he is not dead. However, no one can stop the power of Western firearms.
That's right!
Machine gun.
Legpen looked at it, there were already many places on the ship where the machine guns were placed, and they would not suffer as much as the last time the sluggish boat branch was put at the bottom, but when He Xuan attacked, he didn't even have time to use the machine gun, and it was directly finished.
Major General Legpen took a deep breath, this time, the Qing State was very generous and basically gave up their port. It's a big market of 400 million people, and even though the population there is so poor, it's so much that you can still get a good deal of it.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a ship in front of him, which was not too big.
It is estimated that the boat can only seat a few dozen people at most.
And at the bow of the ship, stood a young man in Tsing Yi wearing a hat and holding a sword!
Standing there, the man seemed to have an astonishing awe-inspiring sword aura, directly attacking.
