Chapter 652, the only way out

  In this plane, not to mention his little gifts, even if it is a rare treasure in the world, if you want to take it away, you have to spend destiny points, and for Fang Xiaoyue, most things are not as good as destiny points.

.

After the imperial merchants were deceived, they immediately asked merchant ships related to them to bring the news back to the Qing court.

 After the Qing court received the news, they immediately started a discussion. For them, it didn't matter if they gave some benefits. The key was to preserve the results after leaving the customs.

But for many things, the imperial merchants could not make the decision, so important figures from the Qing court needed to go to Xinghai Kingdom.

 This candidate is more difficult to give birth to.

 After all, going to an enemy country is inherently risky.

 Although it is said that the two countries are not at war with each other, sometimes it is difficult to tell.

Taking the Qing court as an example, if the chief consul of Xinghai Kingdom came over, would they really be so honest that they would not detain him?

 The rise of the Qing court was originally accompanied by intrigues.

 Finally, after some discussion, Hauge, who had only been healthy for a few days, was pushed out.

 There are two candidates, Hauge and Duduo.

 But in the eyes of the senior officials of the Qing court, Duduo was of higher value. In any case, Duduo was better at fighting than Hauge.

 Besides, the capital still needs Duduo to guard it to prevent civil strife.

And Hauge is not only the eldest brother of the emperor, but also the banner master and prince. Regardless of his status or power, he is stronger than others.

 Therefore, by appointing Hauge as the imperial envoy, he can move forward and retreat freely in many aspects.

Of course, in fact, the Qing court did not really want to conclude any peace treaty with Xinghai Kingdom.

 But unfortunately, the Qing government now needs time to regain its strength.

Of course, it would be great if the secret method of making weapons could be obtained from the Star Sea Kingdom.

For the senior officials of the Qing court, they simply could not understand why the firearms of the Xinghai Kingdom were so powerful, so they could only think that they were made using secret methods.

 As an imperial envoy, Hauge was actually reluctant to go to Xinghai Kingdom.

 One of the reasons is that he does not want to be too far away from the capital.

  After all, as the eldest son of Huang Taiji, his ambition has not been completely dispelled.

 He always thinks about what if the current young emperor dies suddenly?

Since the little emperor has no descendants, wouldn’t he become the only heir?

I have to say that Hauge is a person who only thinks about good things but is not decisive in doing things, so it is difficult for him to achieve great success.

Of course, it is not up to him to decide whether to go to Xinghai Kingdom or not.

Hence, in desperation, Hauge could only obey his orders honestly.

As the emperor’s eldest brother, flag master, prince, and imperial envoy, Hauge naturally couldn’t take things carelessly when traveling. For this reason, the Qing government specially transferred one of the only surviving imperial boats.

Well, this thing was originally used by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty when he went on tour.

However, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty generally would not leave the capital, so after the imperial boat was built, it was never used.

 But this royal boat is different from ordinary merchant ships. It has a gorgeous shape. The only problem is that it is a little bit worn.

Hence, it also took some time to repair the boat.

In addition, this royal boat is not very big, only about 2,000 materials.

  But this was already the largest ship that the Qing government could produce.

 Taking a royal boat, Brother Hao went out to sea.

 He didn't feel too comfortable.

 Because the imperial boat sailed to the sea, it was intercepted by the warships of the Xinghai Kingdom.

After finding out that it was an envoy ship from the Qing government, the Xinghai Navy immediately dispatched two warships to escort it.

 One is a second-class battleship, and the other is a frigate.

 Level 2 battleships are thousand-ton battleships, and frigates are 500-ton battleships.

 Hence, the second-level battleship is slightly larger than Yufune.

 Sailing next to the royal boat, Hauge felt an invisible sense of depression.

 Looking at the thick and long main guns on the deck of the Starship Battleship, Hauge felt a surge of acid in his heart.

When will the Qing Dynasty have such a battleship?

Due to the escort of the Star Sea Warships, the journey was uneventful. Even when passing through the Zheng Family Army's sphere of influence, they were not challenged.

 But Hauge was troubled again during this process.

 Looking at Zheng Jiajun's huge warships, Hauge found that the Qing government seemed to be lagging behind the times.

 Even a small warlord force that is on one side has such a large warship?

By the time Hauge landed in Xinghai City, he was in a state of constant shock.

 The huge gantry crane on the dock carries huge containers one by one to the cargo ship.

Well, after Xinghai Kingdom successively built its own cargo ships or repaired some giant cargo ships, part of the output of the steel plant was used to build containers.

 After all, the benefits of containers over the maritime transport industry are self-evident.

 Convenient, simple and fast.

And the straight cement road, the bright street lamp on the roadside, the radio in the hotel, the toilet, the shower head that sprays hot water, the soft sofa, Simmons...

 All these things made Hauge feel that his palace was a scumbag.

Of course, he can also comfort himself by saying that people in Xinghai are greedy for pleasure and do not seek advancement.

 But when the Star Sea people invited him to watch the new weapon experiment, Hauge felt that his brain was completely exhausted.

what is that?

 A thick iron pipe?

How come a burst of fire erupted in the blink of an eye, blowing the boulder in the distance to pieces?

 Looking at the individual weapon called the rocket launcher, Haug fell into fear.

  The firearms of those Star Sea soldiers can still be resisted by thick city walls, but this weapon as powerful as a cannon is so light?

what does that mean?

Hauge, who has experienced many battles, knew it in an instant.

 This means that the Xinghai people will not need to rely on heavy cannons in the future, and every soldier can become a cannon!

Just thinking about it this way, Hauge felt that the Qing government was going to be doomed.

Under the guidance of this line of thinking, Hauge completely lost the complacent spirit of the Qing army, and instead fawned over the Xinghai people, hoping to obtain sharp firearms from the Xinghai people.

As for that kind of rocket launcher, Hauge has no hope. If it were him, he wouldn't be able to sell such a terrifying weapon to the enemy.

 He has already thought clearly that with the powerful weapons of the Xinghai Kingdom, it is impossible to continue to occupy the Central Plains.

  The only way out for the Qing Dynasty was to leave the Central Plains and go further north to survive.

It's impossible for these Xinghai people to keep chasing and killing them, right?

Of course, even Hauge couldn't make a decision on this kind of matter. He could only write a secret letter and have it brought back to the capital for the big bosses of the Qing court to make a decision.

 As for whether the bigwigs of the Qing court believe it or not, this is not something Hauge can control.

Just when the Qing government wanted to make temporary peace with the Xinghai Kingdom, a large number of freshly produced fuel oil engineering machinery was loaded onto ships at Xinghai Port and shipped to the Hon Hai area.

The Senate has approved the plan for the Suez Canal proposed by the Consul.
