C1054 Calamity to the Chinese People

Buckingham Palace, London, the home of the royal family and the office of the queen. This palace had officially become the symbol of Britain during the time of the Queen Victoria, and it was now in its prime.

The tight palace guards and strict courtly etiquette were of course unable to stop the Prime Minister and the Cabinet Minister of Finance. Even without an appointment, the royal steward would not dare to stop the two carriages. Even the queen, who was listening to the piano in the concert hall, had no choice but to vacate the concert hall and wait for the two uninvited guests.

"Oh, dear Queen, it's really British Empire's fortune to see your complexion looking so healthy …" Count de Beer bowed and took a few steps forward to lightly kiss the back of the Queen's hand.

"Sit down, my old friend. Have you recovered from your ventilation? Change to a softer chair … "

Benjamin then bowed to the queen, but as a young junior, all he received was a smile and a nod of the queen's head, but Benjamin did not care about the difference in treatment.

Queen Elizabeth smiled and listened to all the annoying emotions without showing her grace. Benjamin's eloquence was very clear, and very quickly, he conveyed all the thoughts that he wanted to express clearly.

What surprised people was that Count de Beer didn't have his overbearing attitude just now, but was very low-key. He only smiled as he savored the Indian Black Tea, and wondered if his eyes were wandering around in the oil paintings on the walls of the concert hall.

Benjamin was a smart person, when he said till the end, he suddenly realised that he had made a big mistake, wasn't his attitude too overbearing? Would he let the queen think she had no chancellor? If that was the case, even if Xiao Letian was killed, it would not be worth it to throw his career away.

There were too many things to consider for the British Empire. The gigantic colonies had more urgent work to consider, the Boers of South Africa had always been rebelling, France now controlled the most shares of the Suez Canal, the expansion of the Russian in the country had made the British army extremely nervous, and the development of the North America in the United States after the end of the civil war were all strategic issues worth paying attention to.

What was Xiao Letian compared to? 30,000-40,000 troops, a mysterious warship, relying on some more advanced financial ideas than Qing Dynasty to dig up a lot of wealth … In the end, he was just a regional tyrant, in the eyes of the British, even Ceng Guofan's Xiang Army was more threatening than him.

De Bi sneered in his heart, "I already told you, my body will definitely give up next year if it's bad, but you are still so anxious to get power. Do you know, it is very difficult to get someone who eats bad looks …" The Queen has experienced too many things in her life, what bit of cultivation experience do you have? "It's really not worth looking at …"

As expected, when Benjamin finished speaking, Durby shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "Maybe because I'm old, I won't have to worry about the sharp end of the problem … "Furthermore, my health has always been poor. At the latest next year, I will retire. I should also let the young people share more of the country's affairs!"

De Bi's words were too insidious, it directly pointed out Benjamin's anxious to take over the position. He changed a very normal political act into a one-sided show in Benjamin's dirty heart.

Even the experienced Benjamin could not withstand such humiliation. He turned red and tried to defend himself to the Queen, "Your Majesty, I don't have any other thoughts … "I just hope that Britain's maritime rights will not be challenged. I also do not wish for a hero to appear in China that can pool all the resources. China is too big for them to unite as one!"

"We can't let them become heroes! We can't! If you want to destroy your country, you have to destroy its history first! To destroy his history, he had to first eliminate his hero! China has to be a loose end, and they have to fight each other for ever! "

Benjamin became more and more excited, and his hands began to tremble, "The base figure of several hundred million people! They also speak the same language, write the same words, believe in the same faith... "How terrifying is this?"

"So, we have to break their hearts. We have to start a civil war between them and the Han people. We have to let their ethnic minorities on the border rebel. We have to make sure that they don't know about friendship, love, and respect each other … "To make people of Li Li's group look down on the Henan people, and make the Henan people curse the Shandong people …"

"Let the people of northern China call the Southerners the Southern barbarians, and the Southerners call the Northerners the Northern barbarians. Let them look down on each other and let them attack each other. First, let them fight a war of words before they fight. It's best if they level up again and again into a civil war!"

"This is the only China that suits our interests. From the beginning to the end, this is what I want to express!"

Benjamin's pained tone made the queen moved. She had finally experienced Benjamin's love for England, and even Derby had put away his mocking expression, becoming serious.

The queen calmly said, "Dear Benjamin, don't be agitated. Our love for Britain is beyond doubt. Although I don't think Xiao Letian is as dangerous as you say, but your strategy to target China is still very correct! "

Benjamin was so excited that he was about to cry, "Your Majesty, I still insist that Xiao Letian is very dangerous, really very dangerous … It's not that the tens of thousands of soldiers and the strange battleship are threatening us, but that the halo of victory that he obtained along the way is a threat to us! "

"Europe has won great victories, Tanggu has won great victories three times, attacking Japan is still a great victories, and now Ikek, under his support, has won great victories …" The most terrifying thing is, in the Dakar Sea War and the Ikek Sea War, that battleship also won by leaps and bounds! "

"Would this chain of halos make Xiao Letian a myth? "Who the hell is this mythical person in China? Then he will become an invincible god! He will be able to gather the power of hundreds of millions of people! He will be able to control all the resources in a thousand square kilometers!"

"This is what I'm most afraid of …"

Originally, it was already enough for her to say that Benjamin's sorrowful performance had already moved the Queen and Prime Minister De Bi. Perhaps, in the next second, all she would receive was the Queen's nod.

If the Queen Victoria supported the physical destruction of Xiao Letian, then even if Xiao Letian flew into the sky and flew into the ground, he would still not live past the next year.

But unfortunately, Benjamin's heart was too impatient. At the last moment, he actually said a very unnecessary sentence, which changed history and also changed Britain's last chance to strangle Xiao Letian.

"Your Majesty, if this does not move your heart, then please consider the future of our British Empire's navy and remove this potential threat! That battleship was the iron evidence of the alliance between Xiao Letian and Prussia. This is the most fearsome thing, we absolutely cannot allow it! "
