Iron Dynasty

At the Dutch embassy, ​​Rhodes looked pale at the soldiers of the Chinese Empire with live ammunition. Ten minutes ago, these soldiers were the guards of the Dutch embassy. In a blink of an eye, they became the ones who drove them out.

I want to see Your Majesty, I don't know anything about the embassy staff, I hope the Empire can let us return to the Netherlands safely.

Rhodes was in a bad mood, and he almost had the urge to kill Eric after learning that Eric had attacked the garrison in Geranja City.

Now he misses Blake's time as governor very much, which was also the honeymoon period of Holland and the then Great Yu Kingdom.

But now everything is ruined by those stupid politicians.

Tang Wenjie was ordered to expel the personnel of the Dutch embassy in person, he shook his head, The emperor is very disappointed with your country now. In the emperor's opinion, you are not a trustworthy ally, Rhodes, let's leave with you, the two countries. If you don’t kill you in battle, since the empire has chosen to expel you, it will naturally not secretly murder you again.”

Rhodes sighed deeply. He could imagine how angry Xiao Ming was now. After all, it was no longer easy for an emperor like Xiao Ming to tolerate a Western country controlling such a large colony in Asia.

And now the congressional crowd has succeeded in giving him an excuse.

Dad, I don't want to go back to the Netherlands. Compared with Qingzhou, the Netherlands is like a country. Rhode's youngest daughter, Mandy, who is only six years old, said aggrieved.

Rhode's wife hugged her daughter and looked at Rhode with some sadness. It was human's inability to find a better life.

During this time in Qingzhou, they have become accustomed to the convenience brought by electricity, so when they think of using whale oil for lighting again, they are very uncomfortable.

My daughter, even if the Netherlands is a country, it is our country. Rhodes said sadly, although he did not want to see the Chinese Empire and the Netherlands fighting each other.

But now it does happen.

When Mandy heard his father's words, he could not help crying.

Tang Wenjie's expression did not change. As a diplomat, he knew very well that this was what a diplomat should bear.

If one day he was sent to another country, when he was expelled, his choice would not be much different from Rhodes. After all, their purpose in a foreign country was still to serve their own country.

It's getting late, the locomotive to Dengzhou is about to leave, I hope you don't delay any longer. Tang Wenjie reminded again.

Rhodes nodded helplessly, and he and a group of Dutch diplomats left under the guard of soldiers with their luggage.

In the Prussian embassy not far from the Dutch embassy, ​​the embassy staff who were working stopped their work and looked at the departing Dutch through the glass window.

One diplomat worried: God bless us that Prussia will not have the same fate as the Netherlands.

Our purpose here is to prevent the tragedy of the Dutch from happening to us, so it is crucial to use the technology of the Chinese Empire to unify the German Confederation.

Everyone turned their heads and found that their ambassador, Percy, appeared in front of them at some point.

Is the news confirmed? a diplomat asked.

It's certain, the Dutch attacked the imperial soldiers in the city of Geranja, and the war broke out. Possi replied.

He had just returned from the foreign affairs office of the Empire.

Sad Dutch people, they have been killed by England and France, and when they are completely driven out of Asia, they will understand that the Netherlands cannot get anything from England and France.

Another person said.

Percy nodded, Now I'm very worried that Britain and France will put pressure on Prussia, and I hope the king can make a wise decision.

The Chinese Empire has taught us the principles of conquest rifles and flares, and if they want war, we can always accompany them.

Yes, they have been preventing the unification of the German Confederation all these years. If they provoke us, they will show them a little color.

...

The atmosphere in the embassy suddenly became warm because of this issue, and a smile floated on Possi's face. This is the state of mind of every Prussian now.

Once they are ready, the German Confederation will be back in full swing.

...

Calcutta.

This is the headquarters of the British East India Company on the banks of the Ganges estuary in the Bay of Bengal.

In 1643, the East India Company bought Calcutta from the Indian state of Bengal. At that time, this Calcutta village was small, but it played a very important role.

Because the surrounding area of ​​Calcutta is rich in rice and jute, and the rivers criss-cross, the plains are endless, and it is a very suitable land for cultivation.

After discovering this, the East India Company set up its trading headquarters here, and brought India's grain and industrial raw materials back to England, which made huge profits.

These lucrative profits also made the East India Company stronger and stronger. Following that, the British East India Company successively occupied Madras and Mumbai, and established three jurisdictions here.

Each jurisdiction has a governor to manage, and through these three places, it eroded India, and finally defeated the Minfan Empire, which had been in decline at that time, through the Seven Years War and completely controlled India.

The United Kingdom also made a lot of profits in the battlefield. When they broke into the treasury of the Minfan Empire, the looted gold and silver jewelry was equivalent to fifty million pounds.

This figure is only part of the turn over to the British government, and there is said to be more wealth that has been stuffed into their own pockets by individuals.

At the same time, the war initiated by the East India Company also made the East India Company itself a giant.

Governor Nicholas, the Chinese Empire has broken through Newland, and we got the news that he was too late.

In the Governor's Office, Nicholas was carefully studying a ruby ​​when Buterin in a red military uniform appeared in front of him.

Nicholas raised his head, and he showed a dissatisfied look, Buterin, you are always such a disappointment, and every time you come, you bring me bad news.

As he spoke, Nicholas put the ruby ​​into his jewelry box. This gem was just given to him by a prince of an Indian state.

I'm very sorry, but I'm afraid we don't have much time. The pace of the Chinese Empire is too fast. I'm afraid the next one to lose is Calcutta. Buterin said blankly.

Although Nicholas was the governor of Calcutta of the East India Company, he was an officer dispatched by the British government to help the East India Company put down the rebellion of the native state. His family status was prominent in the country, so he did not appear humble in front of Nicholas.

Buterin's words made Nicholas's expression stiff, and he said embarrassingly; This is India, not Australia, nor Newland. It is not easy for the Chinese Empire to defeat us here.
