Chapter 632

Lin'an City.

At noon, the sound of beautiful orchestras came from the Chu palace in Lin'an City.

The main hall of the palace was full of guests, with officials and generals of the state of Chu sitting on both sides. At the same time, there were two outstanding people, all because they were different from the people of Dayu.

They were no one else. It was Richard and Brazil. After Jinling City and his party, they came to Lin'an City. I'm afraid they will spend a long time in Lin'an City after that.

"Two messengers, as long as you can train our army like the army of the king of Qi, we will never treat you badly."

After three rounds of wine, the king of Chu was drunk, and his heart was not happy. All he wanted to do was spit out.

Although he made an alliance with Xiao Ming, he was really aggrieved. If it wasn't for the delay in the arrival of Qingzhou's guns and muskets, why should he be so aggrieved.

Now most of the southern states and counties are in his hands, his ambition is more and more inflated, and he has been looking forward to the picture of unifying the state of Chongqing.

Richard enjoyed the delicious food in the palace and translated the words of the king of Chu to Brazil from time to time. This time, the king of Chu reached an agreement with the governor of France, okaso, who was in charge of East Asian affairs.

At the same time, they set up trade ports between Dayu and Annam, and they sold firearms to the king of Chu. At the same time, they sent officers to train the army of Chu.

The king of Chu had to pay a salary of 1000 taels of silver to Brazil every month. At the same time, he had to pay Richard 500 taels of translation expenses every month.

Richard translated the words of the king of Chu. Basile frowned and said, "king of Chu, you are poor in firearms. You can't win the king of Qi with the firerope gun and the gun with a range of only 500 meters."

"The messenger is joking. Xiao Ming is also using these firearms. It's just that Wang's military training is not as good as his." The king of Chu didn't realize anything.

Basile frowned and said, "king of Chu, don't you understand? I'm afraid you've been fooled by the king of Qi. We know from the Dutch population that the king of Qi's army is equipped with flint guns. Their artillery range is three or four miles, and they also have field guns. The gap between your weapons is not a little bit. "

"Flint guns? Field guns? What are these things?" The king of Chu asked suspiciously.

Brazile showed a look of disdain. To him, there was no difference between the native people of this place and America and Africa.

Although they have a large population, their rulers are still very ignorant. They don't know science and have no faith. They just oppress their people tyrannically.

But they are happy to see such rulers, because it is good for them to benefit from them.

"The flint gun is more powerful than the firearm. It not only has a long range, but also has a fast filling speed. It is more suitable for rainy days. The field gun is a very convenient gun. This kind of gun can be put into the battlefield at any time with the advance of the firemen." Brazil Le briefly introduced, "this time I come to your country, I also carry firearms for self-defense. This is the flint gun."

After that, Basile stood up and presented a short tube flint gun to the king of Chu.

At this time, the king of Chu woke up drunk. He took the flint gun and looked at it. He immediately understood where the difference was. Then his surprise turned into strange anger.

"Damn it! Xiao Ming has been deceiving me all the time The king of Chu roared.

The officials and generals in the main hall also showed their displeasure when they heard the speech. They whispered to each other one by one, obviously cursing Xiao Ming.

Li Chuyuan, the son of the king of Chu, and the Third Prince of Chu, were sitting on the left and right sides of the king's hand. At this time, Li Chuyuan fanned the flames and said, "father, Xiao Ming is so vicious. The last time he fought with the Dutch, his son's failure was due to Xiao mingtoushan. If he didn't sell us this kind of gun, how could he lose?"

Li Chuyuan was disgraced by his last defeat. Now he finally found an excuse. Although he scolded Xiao Ming in his words, his excitement in his eyes was hard to hide.

The king of Chu looked at Li Chuyuan and said in a slow voice, "father, you are wrong."

"My father is not afraid of blaming my son's ministers. I think it's right for my son's ministers to suffer some grievances. I just hope that my father will stop trusting the Royal people. Xiao Ming is so cunning. I'm afraid other people are the same." Li Chuyuan looked at the third prince and said.

After the king of Zhao set up the thirteen princes, they set up the three princes as the monarch. According to their superiorities and inferiorities, they should call the three princes the emperor.

But now the fact is that the third prince is just a puppet, but even so, Li Chuyuan is still wary of the third prince.

In his heart, the state of Chu is his, how can it be the turn of others.

Li Chuyuan's words about mulberry and locust tree spread to the third prince. The third prince thought he could not hear them. He was still eating food and drinking wine, as if Li Chuyuan's words had nothing to do with him.

Just as they were scolding Xiao Ming for the firearms, a courier came to the door and said, "Your Highness, eight hundred Li from Qingzhou is in urgent need."

"Qingzhou!" Hearing this, the king of Chu became more and more angry. He said to the man Dynasty: "hum, I'd like to see what kind of tricks Xiao Ming is playing. I'll show you!"Wen Yan, the post general, handed over the letter from Qingzhou to the king of Chu.

The king of Chu took the letter and tore it open. He just looked at it and threw it on the ground. His face turned red and purple.

Li Chuyuan looked carefully at the king of Chu. He picked up the letter on the ground and looked at it. He was surprised, "Xiao Ming is going to ascend the throne!"

The voice spread, originally pretending to be nothing happened the third prince's body stagnated for a while, then another person quietly ate up.

But there was an imperceptible smile in the corner of his mouth.

He is no longer wary of Xiao Ming, no longer hate Xiao Ming, and no longer has the suspicion and jealousy between the princes. After living in Lin'an for a year, the cruel reality makes him realize that he is just a dog of the king of Chu.

What kind of throne, what kind of country, to him, is just a spectacle. He only complains that he was blinded by the throne and ended up like this.

From the time he left Chang'an, he knew that Xiao Wenxuan would pass the throne to Xiao Ming. Now that Xiao Ming ascended the throne, he felt relieved and relaxed.

"It's a joke that Xiao Ming even ordered us to take part in the grand ceremony of the accession to the throne!" Li Chuyuan said angrily, "father, it's better to learn from him in the view of his children. Xiao Ming's shelling of Jinling City is a great gift to him."

The king of Chu gasped violently. Xiao Ming's accession to the throne means that his ambition lies in the world, which denies his three princes. Although Li Chuyuan's statement makes him impulsive, he knows that it's not time to tear his face with Xiao Ming.

Although Xiao Ming didn't give him the best firearms, it was enough to deal with other vassals.
