C251 Jedi Counterattack

Honestly speaking, Prince Karl was not an unreasonable and reckless person. The fact that he could become the commander of the legion in the three crucial battles of Prussia's rise and achieve victory proved that he was powerful enough.

There was actually a reason why Prince Karl acted so rudely today. An alliance with the Chinese might seem beneficial in the long run, but Karl had his own concerns.

First of all, what kind of diplomatic reaction would the English and French have towards this kind of hidden alliance? Could they agree to the German attempt on China? Not to mention directly sending troops to interfere with Prussia's unification, even with the current diplomatic pressure, Prussia would not be able to survive.

Second, even if China could provide all kinds of support to Prussia, Germany did not have a strong navy. The master of the sea is England.

In the end, is China worth relying on? This race had fallen behind since the Industrial Revolution, and had yet to show any signs of chasing after them. It was impossible to describe this country with just death itself, but it felt like this was an ice-sealed land.

A country that did not even want to seek revenge, or even be defeated, how could they rely on such a country?

In Karl's eyes, China's wealth had to be plundered using battleship cannons just like the English and French. What sort of alliance was that? What sort of cooperation was this? As long as you can show him your strength, this weak sheep will naturally offer you the meat.

Of course, Karl would never do something like that, even if it were just borrowing at a high interest rate of one million silver coins, he would slowly pay it back in the next ten to twenty years, who knew what would happen in the future?

Prince Karl sneered as he rapidly wrote on the wooden tray with a pen. Finally, he closed his private seal and walked in front of Xiao Hexin, while holding onto the wooden tray with his hands.

"Let me advise you, do not challenge the patience of the prince. You have three thousand heavily armed imperial guards surrounding you, if you dare to resist, the result will be complete annihilation …" I hope you can understand the word total wipeout. Of course, you Chinese must know very well what a total wipeout is. Isn't that a common occurrence for you guys … "

Xiao Hexin, Sima Yun and the others felt as if a handful of dried chilies was ignited in their hearts. Everyone was crying out in their hearts. Why? Why did our hot faces get other people's cold butts? What have we done wrong to make such a mockery of China by a Nordic nation that has not even completed reunification?

Mr. Xiao taught me, I beg Mister to teach me what to do? Our deaths might be small, but even if we all die, we won't be able to exchange our lives for the success of the mission.

This money was not for nothing. Every silver coin here was dug out from China's fire consumption system. To put it bluntly, this was the taxes paid by the citizens.

Each of them had the command level of the Company Commander. The Lord had said before, once the army was expanded, the three hundred people could quickly become thirty thousand troops, and they were all elite soldiers.

These are all my darling pimples, the seeds of a new army that a Prime Minister would cry for.

What should he do? Xiao Hexin and the others were standing at the crossroad they had chosen, feeling lost, and at this time, Xiao Letian was not guiding them, so they had to rely on themselves.

At the same time, on the railway line from Berlin to hamburger, a special train was speeding towards hamburger. The German Prime Minister Bismark gulped down a mouthful of whisky, his eyes filled with rage.

"Karl you idiot, obediently command your troops. This kind of strategic problem that concerns the fate of our nation should be solved by me. You cannot and have no rights to solve it …"

"Ignorant and shallow person, how far can your eyes see? Do you think that you can analyze that the situation is considered a qualified strategist? "If strategist is so shallow and only looks at the successes and failures in front of them, then Britain will not be able to shine like the sun that never sets …"

"Stupid man, what a fool, a man of limited ambition! Which people did not rise to power through rigorous gambling? This is just like business. Only the greater the risk, the greater the future benefits. How to carefully gamble on national destiny is something a fool like you can understand. This knowledge requires talent … "

Bismark drank the whisky cup by cup, not caring about the beard anymore. When he talked to himself about his excitement, he even went around the cabin.

"I can understand Xiao Letian's strategic intentions. This guy and I are essentially the same type of people, both political gamblers. We know how to balance people's hearts, money, military, and diplomacy perfectly, and we can gamble strategically at the right time... "

"You who only know how to fight, don't think that it's because the crown prince is able to see some top secret information. Just because you think you're the commander in chief of strategy, you're not worthy at all …"

"A statesman who could start out from scratch, who could take over the Ryukyu Kingdom and reach a secret agreement with the United States, who could raise an army in the Qing Empire, who could promote Western learning, who could develop industry, this kind of person is not someone you can understand …"

The Prime Minister who was talking to himself suddenly shouted, "The train is speeding up, we have to reach hamburger in half an hour. This troublemaker has never been able to make me relax …"

The train was speeding across the heart of Europe. At the edge of the Red Sea, thousands of miles to the southeast, a group of camel riders were advancing crazily in the desert.

"Accelerate the speed, the Italian cargo ship has already docked at the docked port, from there we can go straight to France and then north to Prussia, in less than a month's time we can reunite with Xiao Hexin and the others …"

Who else could it be but Xiao Letian? Even if Xiao Hexin and the others were beaten to death, they would never have thought that Xiao Letian would actually chase after them from the back, and choose to walk the Sinai Peninsula.

At this time, Suez Canal was still in the process of being excavated, and it would take at least three more years for the ship to be navigable, so Xiao Letian had to land at Red Sea and follow the camel train to the Mediterranean Sea Region.

Even though it took up some time on the road, they did not have to go around the entirety of Africa. In conclusion, they still needed to save time, according to Xiao Letian's plan, they would definitely be able to reach the Poo War before it started.

The Dragon Lord continued to follow Xiao Letian loyally, but this time, he had some doubts over his actions, "Sir, are we going to leave the Tanggu like this? Aren't you afraid that Qing Liu and Qing Dynasty will take advantage of your absence? "

"Don't worry. Right now, our country's imperial government has finally regained its balance. Qing Dynasty would not be so stupid as to break this balance herself. As for Qing Liu, with Great Marshal Zeng helping me, it's not like I can create any big waves …"

"As for Industrial Zones, that tyrant from Ryukyu, they will be building Infrastructure this year. As long as they follow my blueprint and walk step by step, I believe in the abilities of their subordinates …"

Xiao Letian tightened his mask and urged his camel to rush to the front, causing the caravan to speed up once again. To the left of the camel train was an endless stretch of construction tents. Countless Egyptian labourers were working under the whips of the English and French Overseers, digging out the canals with pure manpower. It was just like how the Pharaoh had ordered them to build a pyramid thousands of years ago.

"Dragon Lord, did you see that? This is what happens to the colonies. All the indigenous peoples are slaves, and what awaits them is a whip. Whatever Western Powers tells them to do, they have to do.

"Xiao Hexin, you have to work hard, you can't disgrace the Chinese, you can't let them feel that we are sheep. If you take one small step back, in the future, what awaits our nation will be the leather whip …"

Xiao Hexin and the others probably wouldn't be able to hear what Xiao Letian was thinking right now, but as the first batch of Chinese to be awakened, they were thinking the same thing as Xiao Letian.

The distance between Xiao Hexin and Prince Karl was about five metres, separated by that annoying messenger assistant and two muscular guards. Although the two officers couldn't stop the prince, they stood in a clever way and protected the prince with their corners.

Xiao Hexin didn't try to communicate with his comrades at all, but Sima Yun, Luo Huo and the others could already sense what Xiao Hexin was going to do next.

"Everyone, listen to the password. Put down your weapon. This is a command …" Also, the Katana of the Foreign Legion s and the rest of the costal deviation were placed on the ground, under the command of the German Royal Guards … "

Under Sima Yun's and Luo Huo's strict orders, the three hundred warriors immediately put down their weapons.

Xiao Hexin smiled slightly and nodded to thank the prince: "The Chinese have a proverb, people have no choice but to lower their heads under the low eaves, I am a soldier not a diplomat, I am not good at negotiating with others, everything will be done according to the words of the prince, I think after that there will be civil officials who will come to negotiate with your country …"

After hearing Jonas's translation, Karl and the surrounding soldiers were finally relieved. To be able to settle this matter without bloodshed was beneficial to both sides.

Xiao Hexin got Jonas to translate the debit note, nodded, and copied it out in Chinese before handing it back to the aide. "Your Highness, I do not understand German, and hope that you can write an autograph on the debit note and seal it."

The aide very quickly brought the tray to the prince, and the moment the prince signed, Xiao Hexin suddenly took out a letter from his chest, and walked over respectfully, as if he was talking about something.

"Our Prime Minister has a secret letter for me to submit to the His Majesty the King. However, looking at the way things are today, it will be very difficult for me to meet His Majesty. I hope that the Prince can present it in his place …"

At this time, the Janissaries' defense was at its most relaxed. Their IOU had been signed, and the Chinese people had accepted their debt. Even their weapons had been taken off. Subconsciously, the Janissaries slowed down for a few seconds. The aide-de-camp was bent over waiting for the prince to sign his name, but no one could stop him.

A distance of five metres only required two steps to traverse half of the distance. When the two guards stepped forward and wanted to stop the Prince, Xiao Hexin was only a little more than two metres away from the Prince.

At that moment, Jing Ke and Nie Zheng's souls successfully merged with their bodies, and without any warning, Xiao Hexin rushed forward like a fierce tiger.

"Think of f * cking black lord's money!" "Then let's exchange it with our lives …" A white light flashed from his sleeve, and a sharp dagger was placed on the prince's neck. His left arm was fiercely locked, and the prince's arm was cut behind his back.

"All of you retreat, if you want to take the hostages' lives, all of you retreat …" Xiao Hexin was as furious as a lion, the killing intent around his body immediately intimidated the three thousand guards.
