1825 My New Daming

Chapter 83 British Empire, do me a favor, give me money! (For collection, for follow-up)

Old Immortal Nalan looked at the seething Dajin Navy death soldiers below, seemed to be very satisfied, smiled and nodded, then raised his whisk, as if he wanted to cast spells and blessings on the big guys.

And the group of naval death soldiers who looked a little crazy all of a sudden stopped cheering, and they all looked at the old fairy's whisk reverently—this is really both "Showa" and superstition!
Zhuge Weidao is also a little strange, what kind of Taoism does this old fairy Nalan have?At this moment, the old fairy suddenly said: "Brothers, listen, according to the emperor's decree, Pindao has selected 250 young, beautiful, well-educated, and proficient in dual cultivation for the first batch of dare-to-die men who parachuted into Peshawar. Anyone who wants to be a pioneer of my Daikin, such as Xian Jier, please raise your right hand high!"

"250 fairy fairies! They are young and beautiful, well-educated, and proficient in dual cultivation. No wonder those Dajin Navy death soldiers are as crazy as they are!" Zhuge Wei Daoxin said: "But the total number of fairies of this level is too high. Not too many, right? To take out 250 people at once, this Emperor Daoguang really spent a lot of money!"

At this time, the death-defying soldiers of the Dajin Navy below were boiling, and everyone raised their right arms high and shouted loudly together: "Long live, long live, long live!"

This opportunity is indeed rare!

Those who will be soldiers of the Navy must not be the direct descendants of the nobles of the Eight Banners. Judging from their faces, many of them should be of mixed blood. These people are second-class and third-class bannermen in Dajin.In a generally peaceful era, they don't have a very good future.Now the land in the Promise Valley is a bit tight, and they probably won't even get the full amount of land. Orchid fairies like Nalandili don't even think about it. Now it seems that they have to draw lots to decide who comes first. A batch is going to airborne Peshawar!

When Zhuge Weidao was crossing his arms and waiting to see the lottery, a big man had squeezed through the crowd and came to Zhuge Weidao. He first clasped his fists, and then shouted loudly: "Brother Daozi, I just sent someone to invite you and Zheng Shenshan , why did you come here?"

Zhuge Weidao took a closer look, and it turned out that the person who came was Wu Chuanzhen, the Minister of the Navy Department of Dajin, and he clasped his fists and said, "My lord, are you going to send troops?"

Wu Chuanhuan laughed and said, "I'm looking forward to this day." He looked around and said, "Brother Daozi, this is not a place to talk, let's discuss it in detail in class." Please."

"Okay!" Zhuge Wei said with a smile, "My lord, please first."

As they spoke, the two of them walked towards the lobby of the Dajin Navy Department Yamen, one after the other.

While Wu Chuanzhen, Zhuge Weidao, Zheng Guoxian and others were busy planning for the first time in history, a magic weapon descended from the sky, a big drama was just staged in Kunduz city at the northern foot of the Hindu Kush Mountain.

The Afghan army guarding Kunduz obviously did not have much fighting spirit. When tens of thousands of Dajin soldiers approached the city, they just fired a few symbolic shots and fired a few shots before abandoning the city.

However, the offensive of the Dajinbing at the northern foot of the Hindu Kush Mountain came to an end.Further south is the Salang Pass, which is nearly 3000 meters above sea level. It is already early winter. Although the pass is not blocked by heavy snow, the thin air and low temperature brought by the high altitude are fatal to any large army. of.At the same time, a British-Indian army of two to 3000 troops also marched to the Sarang Pass at a rapid march, and deployed defenses with the Afghan army there.

After the news of the arrival of the British army reached Kunduz, Emperor Daoguang, who had previously yelled loudly to go to India to ban sex films, seemed to be discouraged all of a sudden.Not only stopped the advance immediately, but also contacted the British army at the Sarang Pass through the local religious leaders in Kunduz, and released the intention of peace talks.

The commander of the British army, George Cotton, also planned to use the opportunity of the peace talks to find out the reality of the Daikin soldiers after he learned that Emperor Guang wanted peace talks. Difficult to fit in.And the strength of Dajinbing is also hazy. Although it gives people a backward and conservative feeling, the legend of invincible heavenly soldiers is still maintained in Central Asia.

So in order to know ourselves and the enemy, Major General George Cotton sent his chief of staff, Colonel Mike Norton, and Ali Khan to the Salang Pass, and arrived at the Golden Army camp on the outskirts of Kunduz, which was occupied by the Great Golden Heavenly Soldiers.

This Jinbing camp is a typical cavalry camp. It is very loosely organized, the trenches are shallow and narrow, the camp walls are also sloppy, and the fences are also sparse. It looks casual.However, the watchtower in the camp is very tall and strong, and the view from it should be good.

After entering the camp, he fought in the Napoleonic Wars and fought against the princes and princes in India who refused to accept the British rule for many years. Mike Norton immediately felt the temperament that a backward, conservative, and loose feudal army should have—no matter what The officers and soldiers all wore outdated tattered cotton armor and ridiculous-looking lightning rod helmets.The management of the army is very loose, the teams coming in and out are very chaotic, and the soldiers look like a mob when they carry their guns. It is almost impossible to see any group of soldiers conducting routine drills, but there are large groups of them gathered Soldiers who gamble together.

In the barracks, there are also many fortune-telling Taoist priests, waving magic tools like "little mops" and shouting about "invulnerability"-Mike Norton knows Chinese, he has served as a military officer in Ming Dynasty, and he also knows Taoism.

But their method of boosting morale seems to be useless.Anyway, Mike Norton saw only low morale and listlessness.Although the officers and soldiers of the Kingdom of Jin looked stout and physically stronger than the Indians in the British-Indian army, they lacked energy, their expressions were numb, and sometimes they would show very weird smiles. Laughing, it looks like taking some kind of medicine.

But what surprised Mike Norton even more was that there were actually many small vendors and women who didn't know what to do in the barracks, wandering here, making the barracks look like a market.
As for the weapons and equipment of this big gold soldier, it is not worth mentioning. Mike Norton saw that most of the soldiers were still using front-loading guns, and the number of artillery was also very small. There were no water-cooled machine guns, only some rotary guns. Machine gun (Gatling), and ammo seems to be low.

In short, this big golden heavenly soldier looks like an army of beggars.Maybe you can bully those more ignorant and backward opponents in Central Asia, but wanting to defeat the British and Indian Army is simply a dream.

Mike Norton really couldn't understand, how dare Emperor Daoguang bring such an army to Afghanistan to die?

However, after seeing the fat, lazy, fatuous Emperor Daoguang himself and his low-level ministers, Mike Norton quickly figured out the purpose of Emperor Daoguang's visit—he didn't come to die, he came to beg for food of!

"Sui Ci, Sui Ci, do you know what it means? It means that we Dajin help you guard the northwest border and promise not to let thieves harass you. Your British Empire rewards us with hundreds of thousands of pounds every year. This request is not too much Bar?"

Talking to Mike Norton in English in a faded golden-roofed tent was a thin old man with a white beard. The number one celebrity.When I was young, I served as an ambassador to the Rakshasa Kingdom, and even danced with Ekaterina the Great!It is said that Empress Catherine thought he was handsome and wanted to invite him to spend the night in the Winter Palace.

Later, this He Shen became the minister to the Kingdom of France. Just in time for the Great Revolution, he also rescued Queen Marie Antoinette of France together with Zhuge Weijiu, the minister of the Ming Dynasty at that time, so he became famous.Later that Marie Antoinette gave birth to a half-blood prince for Louis XVI in Vienna
While listening to He Shen's words, Mike Norton thought to himself: "It's just such a man of the age when he was young, but now he is so old that he wants to beg for food from the British Empire. He is so stupid!"
