In the mansion of the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangdong, Wang Yu and the captured Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangdong Ji Qing held a"friendly talk""

"Ji Qing, as long as you help me meet the emperor of your country, I will thank you very much. Maybe you will return to the capital as an official because of this, and it may not be impossible to join the Military Aircraft Department by then," Wang Yu said

"I lost the fort and wharf, and then the city of Guangdong. When the emperor knows, he will definitely send someone to remove me from my post and escort me back to the Ministry of Communications in Beijing for discussion. If I don’t distribute it outside the customs, it’s already a huge blessing. How can I dare to hope to join the military?" Ji Qing said

"You can’t say that. If I meet your emperor and negotiate with him, and then specify that you should be contacted as an intermediary, I don’t think your emperor will touch you easily." Wang Yu said

"What on earth do you foreigners want to do?! The emperor will never allow you to enter Beijing," Ji Qing said, and clasped his fists towards the ceiling.

"If you ask me to just kill him, we have so many soldiers and muskets, how can we not defeat these guys?" Chi Lian said

"We came to the Qing Dynasty with friendship, how could we kill people casually?" Wang Yu said

""It's really troublesome." Chi Lian was impatient, so she went outside to the yard.

"You write a letter now and send it to the capital to give it to your emperor and tell him our purpose of coming. I think he will be willing to invite us to the capital," Wang Yu said

"I won’t write it," Ji Qing refused.

"Do you write or not?"Seeing that Ji Qing was resisting, Chu Bufan suddenly pulled out a revolver and put it against Ji Qing's head and threatened.

"I write, I write! Ji Qing had no choice but to write the zhezi.

After the zhezi was written and confirmed to be correct, Wang Yu asked Jiqing to send someone to send the zhezi to the capital.

Then Jiqing's family and other captured officials in Guangdong were imprisoned in a centralized manner, and the Kyushu New Army was temporarily stationed in Guangdong. The city was resting, and they were waiting for Emperor Jiaqing's reply and the possible counterattack of the Qing army.

Looking at the Kyushu soldiers wearing black and blue military uniforms, dark brown leather shoes, black iron hats, and patrolling with rifles, The people in Guangdong City were panic-stricken. They had never seen so many"foreigners", so they were too scared to go out.

Chi Lian took a dozen soldiers to wander the streets and found that all the shops were closed. She Very annoyed, he chose a relatively large restaurant and asked the soldiers to break down the door.

"Open the door!"

"Open the door, open the door!"

"Open the door quickly! quick!"

The soldiers' rifle butts hit the door panel mercilessly. They shouted while smashing the door.

Soon the door panel was broken open by the soldiers smashing and knocking it.

"Mr. Foreigner, Mr. Foreigner, I don’t know what you are doing." The restaurant manager was brought up to Chi Lian, and he nodded and asked.

"Don't be afraid, we are here to eat at your place," Chi Lian said to the boss in broken Qing Chinese.

""I see, Xiaobazi, hurry up and bring me the water card." The shopkeeper didn't dare to neglect and quickly called the waiter to bring him the recipe.

"What is this?"Read it to me." Chi Lian couldn't understand the Chinese characters of the Qing Dynasty, so he ordered the shopkeeper to read it to her.

"Squirrel mandarin fish, Bazhen tofu, fish-flavored shredded pork, spicy chicken, boiled fish"The shopkeeper read out the names of the dishes one by one.

"Okay, okay, let me try some Bazhen tofu." Chi Lian ordered a dish.

"Yes, yes." How could the shopkeeper dare to neglect him? He kept saying yes.

Then two soldiers escorted the shopkeeper to the kitchen.

Bazhen Tofu uses a lot of ingredients and is relatively troublesome to make, so Chi Lian waited for a long time. Ready to serve

"Um"Chi Lian picked up the spoon, dug out a piece of tofu and ate it in his mouth.

Then she frowned, indicating that what she was doing was too unpalatable.

The restaurant owner was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

"Let's go, let's go, it's boring." Chi Lian stood up and left with the soldiers, without giving any money.

(PS: Eat Overlord meal?

Chi Lian: Whether I pay for the meal depends on my mood.

PS: I agree)

In the Governor's Mansion

"Bufan, why don’t you go out for a walk?"Wang Yu asked

"Your Highness, there are a lot of things in the army, so I won’t go there. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future," Chu Bufan said with a smile.

"That's fine, we will come here often in the future." Wang Yu nodded.

"Your Highness, do you think Emperor Jiaqing will bow to us?" Chu Bufan asked

"I think so," Wang Yu said

"I don’t think so, at least not now," Chu Bufan said.

"Why?"Wang Yu asked

"Because he is the son of Qianlong, he has seen the prosperity brought by Qianlong's prosperous era, and he has the capital to be proud," Chu Bufan said

"I have also heard about the Emperor Qianlong you mentioned. It is said that he especially likes to stamp ancient people's calligraphy and paintings. Those calligraphy and paintings were originally valuable, but he stamped them so casually that they devalued the calligraphy and paintings. Is there such a thing?" Wang Yu joked.

"It does happen. In my hometown, everyone calls him Mr. Zhang," Chu Bufan said with a smile.

"It’s an appropriate title," Wang Yu responded.

"The prosperity of Qianlong's prosperous era cannot keep this empire peaceful forever, otherwise how could we be here?" Wang Yu said again

"He has the pride of a monarch in heaven, and he also has his own pride," Chu Bufan said

"I hope his pride can cause us some trouble," Wang Yu joked.

"This country has a vast territory and a population five times that of our Great Zhou Empire. It will never be conquered easily," Chu Bufan said. He forgot about the land of Jiuzhou and Ten Thousand Kingdoms.

The people of the Great Zhou Empire in the fifth year of Chongning (1800 AD) The population of the mainland is over 70 million, and the population of the outer territories of Kyushu and Ten Thousand Countries is about 30 billion.

"Wouldn't that be more interesting, otherwise I would be bored?" Wang Yu responded

"Has His Highness ever considered going abroad to visit Western countries?" Chu Bufan changed the topic.

"Not yet," Wang Yu said

"More than thirty years later, I hope you will visit the Kingdom of Great Britain to see the scenery there and the elegance of the Queen," Chu Bufan said

"Hey, boy, you want me to ride a Ocean Horse?"Wang Yu laughed and scolded

"Your Highness, that’s not what I meant, actually.."Yes, I want to go." Chu Bufan waved his hand and said with a smile.

"If you want to go, just say you want to go. Can I still not let you go?"Wang Yu said

"Thank you for your grace, Your Highness, but I need a lot of money and want to buy some warships," Chu Bufan said

"warship? Why did you buy them?"Wang Yu asked

"I just want to take a closer look at the most powerful warship in the Western world in this era," Chu Bufan said.

"Okay, you can use the gold in the treasury as you wish," Wang Yu said.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Chu Bufan thanked him.

A few days later, an Eight Banners unit of the Qing Army attempted to attack Guangdong City at night, but was defeated by the gunfire of the Kyushu soldiers.

However, they had just repelled the Eight Banners' attack, and a large number of The Qing army's green battalion troops swept in. There were more than 30,000 green battalion troops. They besieged Guangdong City from three directions.

One morning, Chi Lian came to the circular trench fortifications outside the city. At this time, the battle was going on.

""Get out of the way" Chi Lian pulled away a soldier who was manipulating a machine gun to shoot.

"Da da da.. Da da da"Chi Lian himself controlled the machine gun to kill the Qing soldiers who were rushing up. The bullets rhythmically rushed out of the gun barrel and flew towards the Qing soldiers on the opposite side.

Under the baptism of intensive rifle and machine gun bullets, the Qing army attacked fiercely for three days and was finally defeated. More than 30,000 soldiers and horses were forced to retreat after paying the price of 20,000 killed and more than 5,000 wounded.

More than 40,000 Qing troops, the Eight Banners and the Green Camp troops, successively besieged Yuezhou City on two large scales, both of which suffered major defeats. The number of Qing troops that could still fight in Guangdong Province was less than 10,000, and they were simply unable to carry out another large-scale attack on Yuezhou City. Scale attack.
