When Britain gathered its army of close to a million and marched towards the two countries, the two countries were shocked. The whole world knew that the last two countries of the East Continent Alliance Front had also entered the countdown of their lives!
In the hall of the embassy in the capital, the ambassador of the East Continent Alliance, John. Stephen's hands trembled as he signed his name on a document with a pale face.
When the British army approached and the morale of their own troops was completely gone, the presidents of Ah and Zhi, who were afraid of following in the footsteps of the other countries in the East Continent, finally lowered their heads and called the plenipotent ambassador, John, who was far away in the capital of Ming Dynasty. Stephen, agree to all the conditions of the Ming Country and reach an agreement with the Ming Country on the aid as soon as possible.
In the end, under the mocking gazes of the representatives of the Great Ming, the treaty was quickly signed. However, compared to the last time, the contents this time were even harsher, and the price that the Lower East Province had to pay was even more disastrous.
However, John was still in a daze. However, Stephen understood that in order to survive and avoid the fate of being destroyed, they had no choice. It was their country's fault!
Therefore, excluding the unchanging diplomatic language, the treaty stipulated:
1. The Ming Dynasty will fully assist the East Continent Alliance in resisting the British invasion and take the lead in providing the urgently needed war materials and military advisors to the two countries.
Second, Ming will gather the strength of the three armies as soon as possible within a month and form an expeditionary fleet in order to head to the battlefield in the shortest time possible.
Third, all the expenses in the above two items will be borne by the countries of the Lower East Continent. In order to facilitate better communication and mutual assistance between the two sides in the future, the alliance of the countries of the Lower East Continent will hand over all the gold reserves to the Great Ming Dynasty!
……
In addition, Da Ming requested that no information above be made public, the reason being that he did not want to further provoke the British Empire.
Time flew by, and soon, ten days later, at Tanggu Port, located at the western end of the Bohai Bay, the gateway to the northern Zhili Province of the Ming Dynasty. This huge modern port was always busy, and the port was filled with ships from all over the country.
But today, a corner of the dock was temporarily requisitioned by the army. Soldiers with loaded guns separated all the irrelevant people.
At this moment, the ambassador to the Ming Dynasty, John. Stephen was warmly shaking hands with several officials of the Ming Dynasty. When he shook hands with a middle-aged man in a blue military uniform, the official appeared unusually enthusiastic and excited.
"Thank you so much. Your country has come at the right time.”Oh! I am the vice president of the Equipment Division of the Ming Dynasty. We are responsible for your country's supplies. If you were a little later, I'm afraid that these equipment would only be piled up to...”
" Cough, cough, cough…" Seeing that the deputy director was so excited that he couldn't speak properly, the official beside him hurriedly coughed a few times to remind him.
This made the middle-aged man who had woken up quickly change his tone. Stephen said," Well, what I mean is that as a responsible big country, Great Ming will definitely not allow Britain to invade your country. Any country with a conscience would not ignore the evil acts of Britain. Therefore, please rest assured that our Da Ming will definitely do our best to help your country defeat the Britons!”
Listening to the exciting words of the Great Ming Country official in front of him, Old John was also very excited. Ignoring the strange gazes of the other Ming Dynasty officials around him, he said gratefully,
"Thank you. I am truly grateful to your country for lending a helping hand during our country's crisis. When I think of our country's actions back then, I really regret it. After we beat off the Britons, our country will definitely respect the Great Ming Country and will never repeat the mistakes of the past.”
"Cough cough cough…"
Hearing the other party's half-baked Chinese, the official suddenly felt a little guilty and said,"That's good. Then I'll congratulate your country on your victory!”
For a moment, the surrounding officials couldn't stand it anymore. They were afraid that this guy would accidentally expose himself again, so they quickly separated the two and sent the still excited envoys of the Lower East Province back to the ship.
" Woo…" A loud whistle sounded.
Ten giant cargo ships loaded with various military supplies slowly left the dock under the guidance of the pilot ship.
On the dock, the official looked at the departing ship and muttered,""Reflect, I'm afraid you can only go to God to reflect!”
Forbidden City, Palace of Earthly Tranquility.
At this moment, Zhu Jianyi was carefully helping his little prince learn to walk. Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the little guy was already more than a year old. His legs still did not listen to his orders, and he walked shakily, but he still moved forward firmly with the help of his father.
At this moment, Zhu Jianyi suddenly thought of something and let go of his hand with a smile. However, Zhu Jingkun had only taken a few steps before he fell to the ground. This frightened the imperial concubines and palace maids, and they hurried over to help him up.
However, Zhu Jianyi stopped everyone and said to Empress Wang,"It's fine. Our son isn't that weak.”
As soon as he finished speaking, under everyone's gaze, Zhu Jingkun not only did not cry, but instead, with a wrinkled delicate face, he struggled to get up and staggered toward the Empress.
Empress Wang hugged her precious baby and kissed her while saying excitedly,"Your Majesty, did you see that? His son could walk and was still so strong. He would definitely be a qualified monarch in the future.”
"Of course, this is the true descendant of our Zhu Clan. If not for this, how could we bear the expectations of the people?”Zhu Jianyi looked at the little guy in his arms and said proudly.
Just as the emperor and his family were enjoying their time together, a eunuch came up and whispered a few words into their ears. The Emperor nodded and said to the Empress,"Wan 'er, I have something important to deal with. I won't accompany you for the time being."”
"It's fine, Your Majesty. I'll take care of my son. The state affairs are more important.”
In the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Zhu Jianyi was facing a man wearing a flying fish robe and a wingless black gauze hat. He asked,"How is it? How did it go?”
"Your Majesty, the first batch of aid has been successfully sent out. The second batch of aid is also on board and will set off in a few days. " Also, the Lower East Continent has also sent a telegram. They have already begun to transfer their gold to the designated port. Once our freighter arrives, it can be loaded immediately.”
"Very good. This batch of gold is of great importance. There can't be any mistakes!”
"Yes! Your Majesty, do you have any other orders?"
"Right, we must let the whole world know about the gathering of the army, especially the Britons. We must make them believe that Great Ming is gathering troops.”After saying that, Zhu Jianyi waved his hand and said,"Alright, if there's nothing else, you can leave!"
"I will take my leave."
