When ten huge airships landed on an open grassland outside Xianmen Pass one after another, the joy in Emperor Daoguang's heart turned into extreme shock.
These ten airships looked fine in the sky, but when they landed on the ground, they were simply behemoths, almost as big as battleships on the water. Of course, Daoguang understands science - otherwise, how would he tell fortunes? The "algorithm" passed down by King Wu Zhong is very clever, and it is not good at all without the foundation of high school mathematics for later generations. So Daoguang knew that the big oval object was filled with hollow air bags. When the hydrogen was released, the airship fell down, and when it was filled with hydrogen, the airship floated up.
But the cabin under the rigid air cabin of the airship looks quite small! It can hold at least twenty or thirty fully armed soldiers... If the Ming Dynasty dispatched a hundred airships at a time, wouldn't it be possible to drop two to three thousand people into Wuji Valley at once? Although two or three thousand people are not many, as long as they run a few more times, won't they be able to deliver tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of troops?
Sometime in the future, maybe an infantry unit of the Ming Army will parachute directly to Wuji Valley... Maybe the future "Xuantong Difficulty" of the Jin Kingdom will happen like this!
Thinking of this, sweat broke out on Daoguang's forehead, and the smile on his face froze.
Just when Daoguang "calculated" the cause of Dajin's demise, the festive gongs and drums suddenly sounded, as if to welcome the heavenly soldiers descending from the sky. Emperor Daoguang was startled again, and looked forward intently. Only then did he realize that what came out of an open hatch was not a heavily armed Ming Dynasty soldier, but a few Ming Dynasty officials wearing official robes and black gauze. .
Daoguang breathed a sigh of relief and drove the long-legged horse forward. In just a blink of an eye, he reached the airship closest to him. Then I saw this fat Daoguang lift his legs very nimbly, jump off the long-legged horse, and stand firmly on the grass.
When Daoguang got off the horse, Zhuge Weidao, who was wearing a Ming Dynasty navy uniform, happened to get out of the cabin of the airship. He looked up and saw a fat man in yellow clothes dismounting nimbly. He knew that he was probably fat. Daoguang. So he immediately walked up to Lin Zexu, who had already disembarked from the boat and was also looking at Daoguang, and introduced them to them with a smile.
"Lin Zhongtang, this is the current Holy Emperor Daoguang of the Kingdom of Jin. Long live Daoguang. This is Lin Zexu, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Ming Dynasty."
Of course Lin Zexu would not salute Daoguang - a minister of a big country would not bow to the king of a small country!
So he just cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister came to your country as an envoy on the orders of the Emperor of Heaven and the Queen Mother. I only hope that the friendship between the two countries can be further improved."
Although the current Ming Dynasty is governed by a coalition of eight aristocratic families, the Ming Dynasty still needs the brand of emperor, otherwise it will become a republic. But now that the emperor has not yet taken charge, Lin Zexu has to mention the Empress Dowager of the Ming Dynasty.
Emperor Daoguang didn't have the bad temper of the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty, otherwise he wouldn't have gone out to meet Lin Zexu in person. Moreover, he really wanted to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty, so he clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Lin Zexu I have admired the name of Zhongtang for a long time, and I am really lucky to meet him today."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at a large bastion not far away that happened to be stuck at the entrance of the Wuji Valley, and said with a smile: "Lin Zhongtang, the wind and sand here are quite strong, it is not a place to talk... or Let’s enter Xianmen Pass first! I have ordered people to hold a banquet in Xianmen Palace to welcome you to Lin Zhongtang.”
"Then foreign minister, thank you very much for your hospitality."
"Haha, Lin Zhongtang is so polite. Since you have come from thousands of miles away, I will fulfill my duty as a landlord..."
At this time, a carriage had arrived in front of Lin Zexu and Daoguang. Daoguang took Lin Zexu's hand cordially and said with a smile: "Lin Zhongtang, get in the car, let's go into the city together!"
"Leaving now?" Lin Zexu was stunned. He always felt that something was missing?
This is not his first trip abroad. What about the etiquette of raising the national flag, playing the national anthem, and reviewing the honor guard?
Emperor Daoguang understood what Lin Zexu meant, and laughed and said: "Lin Zhongtang, we in Dajin do not follow the red tape of those Westerners... When friends come, we have enough good wine and meat! Enemies, haha, don't even think about entering." Wuji Valley!”
"Okay, okay, have fun!" Lin Zexu also looked generous after hearing Daoguang's words.
The two people just held hands and boarded the carriage heading to Xianmen Pass.
Zhuge Weidao did not enter the city with Daoguang and Lin Zexu, but looked up at Xianmen Pass. This was a natural barrier that protected the four generations of kings of the Kingdom of Jin!
It was just a checkpoint at the beginning, but after more than a hundred years of construction, it has transformed from a checkpoint into a fortress and has become an impregnable fortress.
After Xianmen Pass turned into a large bastion, the Dajin Royal Family built a palace in the bastion.
According to Zhuge Weidao's knowledge, once the Jin Dynasty needs troops, it will move to the fortress at Xianmen Pass to sponsor them, which means that the emperor will personally conquer the country and the emperor will guard the country. After Emperor Daoguang made up his mind to go south to "beg for food", he moved from Wuji Palace in Bagua City to Xianmen Palace in Xianmenguan City.
It seems that this fat Daoguang is a promising Daoguang who is not willing to suffer poverty. He has made up his mind to go abroad to beg for food... He has a lot of "money" future!
Just when he thought of this, He Shen came up to him with a smile, cupped his hands and said: "Junior brother Daozi, we meet again... Why don't you see the Grand Duke and Fairy Nalan? I heard what Ambassador Yu said, are you still planning to Take advantage of this opportunity to take the Grand Duchess to Rakshasa and return to her parents’ home.”
Zhuge Weidao smiled and returned the gesture: "Senior brother, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Dili is here this time and is still packing her things in the airship. She is from the Kingdom of Jin, so of course she wants to come back for a visit. But I'm a bitch She can't come, she's pregnant."
"Oh," He Shen's eyelids twitched and he immediately smiled, "Congratulations!"
While the two were talking, Nalandili, along with Yu De and Wang Wen, had already come out of the cabin of the airship carrying the package and suitcase. Seeing Heshen, Fairy Nalan quickly went up and gave a salute.
He Shen glanced at Nalandili's belly - it was not bulging at all. It seemed that there was no little Zhuge in it!
Realizing that his treacherous plot had not succeeded for the time being, He Shen still said to Zhuge Weidao with a smile on his face: "Junior brother Daozi, although the Grand Duke is not here, brother, I still prepared all the troubles for you in Xianmen Pass. Qi Jing's house... By the way, your apprentice Sushun is also in Xianmen Pass, he misses you as a teacher."
In fact, that little Sushun was not Zhuge Weidao's disciple at all. He only spent some time with Zhuge Weidao when Zhuge Weidao went from Petersburg to Bagua City. He said he asked Zhuge Weidao to tell his fortune, but Zhuge Weidao himself didn't understand it, so there was no way to teach him. So after Zhuge Weidao arrived at Bagua City, Sushun returned to Heshen, but he didn't expect to show up again this time.
However, Zhuge Weidao didn't say anything, he just smiled and got into another carriage with He Shen, and the two of them went to Xianmenguan City together.
While the carriage was running, He Shen smiled and asked Zhuge Weidao: "Junior brother Daozi, I wonder how Ming Dynasty asked me, Da Jin, to test the British people's background?"
When Zhuge Weidao heard this, he understood in his heart that he was trying to find out my trump card!
And he also said, "How about Da Jin doing this for Ming?"... It seemed as if Da Ming owed Da Jin a lot of favors.
Thinking of this, Zhuge Weidao immediately smiled and replied: "Brother He, don't worry, I, Da Ming, firmly support Dajin!"
"Oh?" He Shen looked happy, "I wonder how Ming Dynasty can firmly support it?"
Zhuge Weidao smiled and said: "Brother He, whether you want guns, cannons, ammunition, or airships...we can rent them!"
