Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 868 Brooke’s Thoughts

"Father, you don't have to be like this. There are still Nanping Kingdom, Nanliang and Beidi. Moreover, Bazhou is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It will not be easy for King Yan's troops to win here." Liang Feng comforted.

Like his father, he was also very distressed.

After all, Jiangxia's 600,000-strong army and 200,000 of the 600,000-strong army in Changcheng were all built with the hard work of the Wu Kingdom.

It was gone in the blink of an eye, which was hard for anyone to accept.

"Nanliang, Nanping, Beidi?" Liang Kai murmured and said with a wry smile, "So what, our country of Wu used to be the most powerful among the powerful clans, but now it has become the weakest party overnight. Even if they win in the future, Without King Yan, how can the Liang family have a place in the world?"

At this time, Luther and Brooke looked at each other, and Brooke said, "Your Majesty, why are you so pessimistic? If you can destroy King Yan, we in Britain will bring justice to you. This is your territory, and there will be no less."

"Really?" Liang Kai was stunned for a moment, trying to grab a life-saving straw.

Luther nodded, "It won't be long before our Western Fleet and army arrive. Then we will definitely stand with you to resist King Yan. If the war is won, we will divide the sphere of influence for your clan according to the rules before moving westward."

Liang Kai was excited when he heard this.

If so, most of Jiangnan still belongs to his Liang family.

Then he can make a comeback.

Liang Feng looked excited at night, and he said to Luther and Brooke: "You are truly the benefactors of our Wu Kingdom. In the future, our Wu Kingdom will treat you Britain favorably."

"This is just a trivial matter. Who told us that our common enemy is King Yan?" Brooke said, "But in order to buy us time, I hope you can persevere and never shake your confidence."

Liang Kai nodded, "I have nothing to lose. If King Yan wants to fight, he will fight to the end. I will accompany him."

The words of Brooke and Luther were now holy decrees to him.

With his million-strong army gone, the only people he could rely on were the Westerners.

As for Nanliang and Nanping, he couldn't believe it after all. He would rather believe in Britain.

Then, he became violent again, wanting to cut King Yan into thousands of pieces, twitch and peel off his skin, "King Yan, if you fall into my hands, I will definitely make you taste the most cruel punishment in the world, and I will torture you to death bit by bit. "

Then, he remembered something and looked at Han Zheng, Wang Zi'an and Xie Duan.

Although Luther and Brooke's persuasion gave him a glimmer of hope in despair.

But this tragic defeat made him feel angry inside.

The anger immediately burned to the three of them.

If they could reach Changcheng and lead Changcheng's troops to attack from the north and the south, why would Wu's 600,000-strong army end up like this?

Seeing Liang Kai's eyes sweeping over, Han Zheng, Wang Zi'an and Xie Duan immediately trembled in fright.

They knew each other so well that they naturally knew what Liang Kai was thinking.

Because of this, they were prepared for a rainy day and gave Luther and Brooke 10,000 taels of gold as soon as they returned to Bacheng.

Let Luther and Brooke exonerate themselves.

Sure enough, seeing that Liang Kai seemed to be intending to offend the three of them, Brooke said: "Your Majesty, in this critical moment, you cannot do things that will hurt your relatives and please your enemies. Otherwise, it will only make King Yan laugh, and Nanping and Nanliang will also think that Your Majesty is thin. Liang, not worthy of trust.”

When Liang Kai heard this, he also felt that it made some sense.

He killed three people, and Dou Wei and Fan Xinglun might be able to do the same to him someday.

It's better to show mercy to each other.

Thinking of this, his cold face suddenly turned into a smile, and he no longer mentioned the defeat, but said, "What should we do next?"

Brooke said: "Your Majesty only needs to defend Bazhou to avoid exposing Yizhou to enemies on both sides. The rest can be left to Nanping, Nanliang and Beidi. I think they should be able to hold on until our Western Turk army arrives."

Liang Kai nodded slowly.

In fact, he really couldn't do anything.

After agreeing on the matter, everyone left the palace.

When they arrived outside the door, Xie Duan, Han Zheng and Wang Zi'an wiped away cold sweat and expressed gratitude to Luther and Brooke.

"Thank you two for your help." Xie Duan looked humble.

This was a disastrous defeat for Wu, but it was even worse for them.

Wu State still has at least 100,000 soldiers and horses in Bazhou, and each of them only has more than a thousand personal guards left.

Han Zheng and Wang Zi'an also thanked him profusely.

Brooke waved his hand, with a righteous look, "You are all our allies, we will treat you the same, and the territory of Jiangbei will be returned to you in the future."

The three of them were overjoyed when they heard this, and they were even more grateful.

After the three left, Luther and Brooke looked at each other and laughed.

"In exchange for ten thousand taels of gold in one sentence, we will all be rich when we return to Britain." Luther said.

Brooke raised his index finger and shook it, "Are you satisfied with this little gold? I'm not satisfied. Since this opportunity is ahead of us, we must take the opportunity to make a big fortune."

"How to get rich?" Luther asked.

They did carry out Governor Bolt's orders, but there was no conflict with them taking the opportunity to make a fortune.

This is what Western natives overseas do.

Otherwise, who would be willing to leave the comfort of their home and work thousands of miles away to work.

"I'm worried that these powerful tribes cannot stop King Yan and will collapse before our army arrives." Brooke said.

Wu Guo's disastrous defeat also surprised him.

After the King of Yan's army installed another type of musket, it became more difficult than ever.

Even if their British army arrives, it will be difficult to deal with them.

They should now focus on improving the level of firearms.

"This is also what I'm worried about. The Beidi and Rus people are unreliable. If the situation goes wrong, they will definitely withdraw from Yizhou." Luther said.

"So, if this happens and Bacheng cannot be defended, we will ask Liang Kai to transport the gold and silver treasures hoarded in Bacheng to Jiaozhi through Yunzhou, and then transfer them to Tianzhu." Brooke said.

The hundreds of years of accumulation of the Liang family and the huge wealth they collected when they moved westward had long attracted his attention.

If the powerful were destined for destruction, why didn't they give this vast wealth to Britain?

"But this way, what does this wealth have to do with us? It will definitely be transported back to Britain." Luther said.

Brooke said, "You don't think we want to occupy this wealth, do you? You really think too much. This wealth can buy a small country. You can only hand it over. If you are too greedy, you and I will be guillotined."

After a pause, he looked at the direction in which Han Zheng and the others were leaving, "Once Bacheng cannot be defended, only we can provide them with shelter and lead them to escape to Tianzhu or even Britain, and we will choose who goes and who stays. ? But we have the final say.”

Luther heard this and suddenly realized, "Brooke, you are really a clever guy. My mercenaries will cooperate with you when the time comes. We are going to make a fortune this time."

Brooke chuckled twice.

This method can make money and transfer some powerful people.

In the future, even if King Yan unified Dasong, they would not recognize Dasong.

They will only recognize the powerful people they hold in their hands.
