Chapter 585 Sure enough--I know there must be nothing good.
"In fact, my request is also very simple. If you want, both of us will have rich interests. Yes, it's a benefit." Liang Pengfei had a strong root and a businessman's face, and Ni Ming, who was sitting behind Liang Pengfei, rolled his eyes secretly. Yes, Liang Pengfei, was like this when the head of state, was calculating.
The three Englishmen looked at each other and thought that Liang Pengfei would definitely turn against him. Who knows, Liang Pengfei put on a happy look, as if there was a business to cooperate with them.
"Dear head of state, it is our greatest honor to serve you to make up for our mistakes." Si Dangdong stood up and said respectfully to Liang Pengfei. However, we are really weak in the East now, and I'm afraid it's difficult to make a difference.
Liang Pengfei smiled, and the cigar in his hand drew a circle in the air. Don't worry, there is only a small piece left in your colony now, and you don't have much trade share. Although you annoy me and make me very angry, as a great country that has inherited more than 5,000 years of history and civilization, you still have a little heart.
"This number must be reported. If there is no profit, you can't get up early. Do you still have a heart? Then we British scammers and thugs who should be hanged can be called saints. Viscount Edmund and Macartney and others had an expression of identity and humility, as if they were fascinated by Liang Pengfei's personality charm. In fact, they were secretly scolding in their hearts.
"...It's very simple. I want you to cooperate with me to divide up Myanmar." Liang Pengfei rubbed his fingers and said with a negative smile.
"What?!" Liang Pengfei's words made all three British envoys have an incredible astonishment. Dear Fuhrer, you are not kidding, are you? Viscount Edmund subconsciously stood up. You should know that the relationship between our British Empire and Myanmar has always been very good, and we don't have enough strength to attack Myanmar.
"No, no, no, of course I'm serious, and I'm sure." Liang Pengfei raised his eyebrows. I said it was cooperation. If you are willing to cooperate with me and cooperate with our army against Myanmar and Siam, I can forgive your previous British conspiracy against our country, otherwise... I will tear up the previous agreement, because you breached the contract first.
Hearing Liang Pengfei's threat, Macartney could no longer sit still. Mr. Führer, you can't do this. We have done everything that the British Empire promised you. How can you go back on your word?
"Whether I repent or not, it even depends on whether you can show your sincerity. All right, see off! By the way, everyone, I don't have much time, and I'm very impatient, so you'd better give a favorable answer to both of us before tomorrow night. Liang Pengfei shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly.
--------------------
Soon, under the escort of Liang Pengfei's cold-eyed and hard-looking soldiers, the three British could only return to their house sullenly.
"What should I do now? The plan has been completely exposed. If Liang Pengfei really takes the opportunity to tear up the treaty, the consequences will make us..." Viscount Edmund cried with a sad face, and the whisky with a strong smell of wine in his hand entered his mouth as if he had lost its taste.
"If he does this, it will anger the empire, and it should be him, not us, who will bear the consequences." Shi Dangdong patted the armrest of the chair angrily and shouted loudly.
"Calm down, everyone, please calm down. Things haven't reached that far yet." Macartney tapped his hand on the forehead. What Liang Fuyuan said is actually a way.
"Dear Lord, do you think he really wants to cooperate with us? How can this be possible? This guy can't wait to drive our British Empire out of the East completely. Now, he has thrown such a bait. Who knows what he is calculating? Shi Dangdong was dissatisfied with the tunnel.
"I know this, dear Sdangdong, but have you ever thought about it? Here, there are not only us and the Orientals, but also many European envoys. Their eyes are staring here. It is our Imperial Prime Minister and the members of the parliament who violated the treaty first, not him. And because of this, we are very passive. Macartney looked at the east of the scene and said coldly.
Si Dangdong opened his mouth, but he really couldn't think of anything to refute, so he could only sit back in the chair depressedly.
When Macartney saw that both of them were quiet, he breathed a sigh of relief: "In fact, if we agree to his terms, it will be very beneficial to our British Empire. Please listen to me first."
"Our British colony in the East now has only one small town left: Penang.
The strength of our British Empire in the East is no longer enough to annex or invade those countries on the Central South Peninsula. But if we cooperate with the Orientals to deal with Myanmar, then we don't need to face this big country in the Central South Peninsula alone, and we can also share the benefits from it, so that our colonies in the East can be slightly expanded.
Although it is not as good as the original dominance of India, at least we not only made up for the mistakes of the Imperial Diet and His Excellency the Prime Minister, but also obtained a new colony for the empire, and let Liang, the Oriental reader, believe in us again.
Looking at the two already moved companions, Macartney aggravated his tone and said, "Think about it, what choice do we have?"
Viscount Edmund nodded: "Yes, we really have no choice. If it really annoys him, I believe our empire can't even defend Penang. If we lose even the last colony, I'm afraid it will be our end..."
"But how should we explain it to the Prime Minister and the parliament?" Sdang used to feel that he was lucky to come to the East, but now he feels that it is such a tragedy.
"Explain, I will personally write to His Majesty the King. Or, there is no need to explain anymore. Macartney sighed.
"Lord, what do you mean by that?" Donton looked at Macartney in some astonishment.
"I think that since Liang Pengfei can fully know our plan, his army in India has already taken precautions and countermeasures. Do you think that with the garbage level of combat effectiveness of the Indians, it will pose a threat to those Easterners who are not even opponents of our British army? "?" Viscount Edmund laughed after pouring the spirits in the glass. I don't know if the Orientals now have a strong strength in India. Otherwise, why don't our European compatriots who bully the weak dare not go further?
--------------------
Seeing that Si Dangdong opened his mouth, he didn't know how to refute it. Viscount Edmund said with a trace of sarcasm: "Do you think those politicians appointed by the members of Congress can take back everything our British Empire lost in the East with their wealth and empty promises? If that's the case, why do I have to endure it until today?
"Well, Mr. Chairman, Mr. Donton doesn't have much say in this matter. After all, the will of His Excellency the Prime Minister and members of Parliament will not realize how wrong they are until they are frustrated." Macartney stood up and motioned that neither of them should continue to argue over this kind of issue. After all, in the face of the cruel reality, no amount of regret and complaint will help at all.
He has been under house arrest in the East for more than two years. Through his own eyes, he has observed the East for two years. He is already very clear that today's East, after the overthrow of the Tatars, did not cause great turmoil, because when Liang Pengfei overthrew the rule of the Tatars, the interior of the Eastern Empire itself was There was a turmoil that affected nearly half of the empire. Up to now, in the middle of this empire, the armed forces of the original Tatar troops and cults still exist.
However, there was no way to influence Liang Pengfei, the ruler. Instead, he took this opportunity to gather the displaced people who fled their homes. Immigrant to the Southern Ocean, the Central South Peninsula, and the New World, thus sufficient for the empire's rule over these newly occupied lands.
Macartney even suspected that it was that guy who deliberately caused such a situation. Otherwise, according to the local concept of the Orientals, it is absolutely impossible to carry out such a large-scale migration in a short time without causing turmoil.
"Before, our empire was so careful when dealing with this oriental giant that it missed the best time, but now, the empire despises the eastern empire, which is becoming more powerful. It makes it difficult for us to make a difference in the East. Macartney thought with emotion in his heart.
"Fur, are you really sure you want to release those British prisoners of war?" Sun Shijie looked at the order issued by Liang Pengfei and still said worriedly, "That's more than 10,000 British prisoners of war."
"Ha ha, if I don't put them back, do I have to give them a pension? It has been closed for more than two years. In the past two years, they have also played a lot of residual heat for the construction of our Kowloon. Liang Pengfei said with a smile.
"...the residual heat." Sun Shijie smashed his mouth, and he always felt something was wrong in his heart. Ni Ming next to them explained, "If you don't let people go, with the current British strength in the East, they don't have the ability to attract the attention of Burmese people at all. Besides, the things promised by Britain, as well as those merchant ships and warships, have arrived in Hong Kong safely. If we drag them down, it will seem that the head of state is too stingy.
"The important thing is that the British have just formed an alliance with the Burmese before, which is not good for our country, but in a blink of an eye, they are treacherous and united with us to deal with their allies. Such capricious actions, hehe, you say, who else dares to join hands with them? Question mark Who else will trust them? At that time, they will be hated by ghosts. Liang Pengfei said his purpose.
"Sure enough... I know that there must be nothing good." The other people present next to him couldn't help leaving a cold sweat on his forehead. It seemed that Master Liang was still as vicious as usual.
