After the Chinese army occupied London, it was the turn of the senior management in Great Britain to have headaches and anxiety.

The nobles trapped in London wrote letters to the king and parliament in Oxford, asking them to solve the London problem immediately.

Either dispatch an army to regain London, or immediately negotiate with Dahua.

They don't want to be controlled by the Chinese army all the time, because they have no sense of security.

And these people, although embarrassed in front of the Chinese army, they are actually very influential in Great Britain.

Charles II was able to come to power and sit on the throne, and there are reasons for their support.

The opinions of these people cannot be ignored by Charles II.

In Oxford, after Charles II learned of the fall of London, his hair was also white in sorrow.

Facing the food in front of him, he also has no appetite.

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, the result was worse than he expected. He never expected that so many nobles would be trapped in London.

He couldn't ignore the lives of those people.

Otherwise, those who originally supported him will be overthrown immediately.

He did not control the country like Louis XIV.

In contrast, he is a relatively weak monarch, with limited power in his hands.

"Henry, what do you think I should do?"

Charles II summoned several important ministers and asked their opinions.

"The lives of Sir Olsen and the nobles in the city must be preserved. We cannot allow the tragedy of Gibraltar to repeat itself."

Henry said.

"However, if we want to save the lives of those people, we must negotiate with the Chinese. This conflicts with our previous strategy. If we negotiate now, all our previous efforts will be in vain, and it will also make Great Britain in other countries. The country has lost its face and its leadership position."

Another tougher minister did not agree to the peace talks.

In his view, in order to win the war, a price must be paid.

Those nobles in the city are the price.

Moreover, if the Chinese people really kill all the nobles, it can also completely anger the entire upper class of Europe, and it can make the alliance more united, which is also a good thing.

"Edward, your son-in-law and daughter are also in London."

Henry reminded.

"In order to win, their sacrifice is worthwhile, and they die well."

Edward's expression was indifferent, leaving others speechless.

Although, they all know that Edward's decision is the most sensible. However, they really can't be so unfeeling.

"Or we'd better drag it for a while, so as to appease the Chinese and protect the lives of the nobles in the city. On the other hand, we wait for news from Africa.

If our coalition forces can succeed in Africa and have the hope of defeating the Chinese army, we will be cruel to give up those people in the city.

If the coalition forces fail in Africa, then there is no point in our continued resistance. We will simply formally negotiate with Dahua to tide over this crisis. "

Henry thought of a compromise.

The reason for thinking like this is actually because people don't give much hope for actions in Africa.

The combat effectiveness of the Hua Army far exceeded their imagination.

They found that the plans they made before were too optimistic and the probability of failure was extremely high.

By now, they all had to start preparing for the defeat.

In Paris, Louis XIV learned the news of the fall of London. While surprised, he was also a little relieved. "Fortunately, the Chinese first hit London."

When other ministers heard this, they could only pretend not to hear.

Now that France and Great Britain are allies, this is too much to say.

Fortunately, everyone here is the core high-level of France, so no one will leak such words.

"I hope that King Charlie can hold on. Anyway, they admire the strategy of dragging down the Chinese army. This is their opportunity to implement the plan.

Said a minister.

The Chinese army has limited ground forces in Europe, which is something everyone knows.

Therefore, when Dahua occupied London, their Paris was relatively safe for the time being.

"Then how should we respond to Charlie's request for help?"

"How else can we reply, unless their warship can cross the English Channel, otherwise our soldiers can't swim past it?"

"Even if their warships come over, we can't go there. It's too dangerous. In case of an attack at sea, our reinforcements will be a dead end."

After all the people talked and talked about it, they finally felt that the matter of Great Britain was settled by themselves.

Their army still needs to guard France.

Although the Chinese army has not yet come over, they must be prepared for defense.

"It is necessary to build strong fortifications on the periphery of Paris. From today on, it is forbidden to sell cement to the private sector, all of which will be requisitioned for the construction of defense lines."

Louis XIV said.

This makes one of the ministers look ugly, because the cement factory is the private property of his family.

The cement manufacturing technology has not been mastered in Europe for less than a year.

Although the technology is available, the manufacturing process is not yet mature, so the manufacturing cost is high. Only by selling to those who are rich can some profit be made.

If you sell it to the army, don't count on it.

In the case of Charles II, he may not dare to expropriate directly.

But Louis XIV was relatively strong, and he did not worry so much in the emergency of the country.

"Now we can only wait for the good news from Africa. If the operation there fails, we may really have no choice but to take Dahua."

France is also counting on African actions.

"London is captured? Fortunately Madrid is inland."

Carlos also secretly rejoiced, if Madrid is also by the sea, he must be the first to be unlucky.

And now, London has become the first unlucky man.

"King, I heard that the Chinese army is transferring troops from India to Europe. It is still the Suez road. If it is true, there will be a large number of Chinese troops in Europe soon."

A minister reminded.

"This news is reliable? What can we do. Ten to twenty thousand Chinese troops will prevent us from reaching. If another tens of thousands come, the whole of Europe will be conquered."

Carlos said anxiously.

"Up to now, we can only pray for the success of the African operation, so that the Chinese people will not be able to obtain continuous supplies. We still have some opportunities."

Said the minister.

Not only Great Britain, France, and Spain are counting on the action in Africa, but even Poland, Sweden, the Holy Roman and Tsarist Russia are counting on that military action.

Even Li Dingguo hopes that they will succeed, so that at least Dahua's expansion speed can be delayed, so that he can live a comfortable life for a few more years.

Once that action fails, then their next situation will not be better.
