C394 Count de Beer visit (1/2)
”What?” The new British Prime Minister, Count de Beer, wants to see me? And right away? ” Just as Xiao Letian was about to board the carriage and go visit the hamburger's weapons factory, the wheels of the carriage were stopped by the people sent by the council.
”Count de Beer? Count de Beer... ”Damn, I don't have any information on this person in my head?” After all, Xiao Letian was not a super computer. Even if he was someone who liked military affairs and history in his previous life, he only had some kind of understanding towards big events and big figures.
There were many prime ministers in the history of England, so he could only remember a few. For example, this Count de Beer, made Xiao Letian's mind go blank.
Fortunately, Prussia side had thought about it carefully and had prepared a few handwritten words and stuffed them into his arms. When Xiao Letian finished reading the documents, he sorrowfully touched his forehead.
”Sigh …” Heavens, oh heavens, why are you toying with me like this? Just stuff me a barrel of gunpowder, can't you let me relax for two days? ”
Look at the information on him. He was addicted to gambling, loved horse racing, and his luck was pretty good to be able to win a hundred thousand from horse racing.
He was eloquent but aggressive, and one of his allies had the classic phrase: ”This lord is Prince Rupert in the parliamentary debate; he is fierce and unstoppable, but when he comes back victorious he finds his camp occupied by the enemy.”
had already guessed what the Englishmen wanted. They were afraid that Xiao Letian would come into contact with their interests in the sea, so they were here to prepare a precaution.
”Soldiers, come bring water to the embankment. Who cares what kind of people they are, I can deal with them too!” Xiao Letian said to the people around him fiercely, ”Go buy some seafood... Go buy a beer... Didn't this count want to see me? I'll treat him to a seafood feast! ”
Hmph, aren't you sick with gout? I'll treat you to seafood and beer, I'll kill you.
With Xiao Letian's order, the German chefs immediately started getting busy. hamburger City was close to the sea and also close to the river, so they had a lot of aquatic products.
Giant North Sea lobsters, deep-sea salmon on ice, the freshest oysters, and fat bread crabs... A variety of top quality seafood was sealed in ice and quickly transported from the market by carriage to the villa.
The long dining table was set in the garden beside the blooming rose bushes, and the splashing fountain was not only beautiful but also lowered the heat.
Xiao Letian had even seen a few extremely rare blue lobsters, which were items that ordinary people would not be able to come across easily.
Time passed second by second. When the needle pointed at 11 o'clock, a fast horse came running from the west side of the villa. It was the news of the arrival of the British Prime Minister, which was brought by the Prussian cavalry.
”New Army Assemblage... Line up for guests... ”All of you, give me some energy …”
Xiao Letian stood at the fountain in the center of the garden, quietly standing there, waiting for the prime minister of the strongest empire of his generation, the man who was going to face the most severe test.
Very quickly, a group of cavalrymen's jumping helmets appeared in their line of sight. Although it was a secret visit, the reception standards given by Hamburg were rather high.
All of them were tall and strong, and their buckles were tied tightly to their chins. The arrogance in the eyes of all the soldiers was as glaring as the sun at noon.
In the middle of the line was a quiet and luxurious carriage, which had the crest of the Prussian royalty on it. It seemed like the hamburger Council had used up all of the carriages the King had deposited here.
In the carriage, the Count de Beer looked at the proud cavalry coldly and sighed in his heart, ”This Prussian national destiny has really risen. These few victories have caused their national emotions to soar. Their pride is almost comparable to the young men of our navy …”
”Is it really good that Her Majesty supports this country?” Just as the Count de Beer was talking to himself, he suddenly realized that the pride of the Prussian cavalry was disappearing fast.
What was going on? The count's eyes lit up when he lifted the curtain and saw two rows of Chinese soldiers standing tall and straight on either side of the road.
”What sharp eyes!” What a strong killing intent! This, this, this... Is he Chinese? These are the Chinese soldiers who made the miracle of the stone bridge? ”
Indeed, the ceremonial soldier that met the Prime Minister today were all Chinese officer that had been removed from the bloody battle on the stone bridge. Many people's uniforms didn't even have time to be replaced, even though the slurry was very clean, the smell of blood and smoke that permeated into the fabric couldn't be removed.
The horses were the ones who could feel the killing intent the most. When the horses approached the Veterans of the Hundred Wars, they immediately became restless. If it wasn't for the fact that the riders were skilled enough at controlling horses, they might have been startled by the sight.
”Salute …” With the order given, the soldiers on both sides of the road saluted the Prime Minister in unison. At that moment, the gloomy atmosphere felt as if they had crashed into a carriage. British Prime Minister actually subconsciously returned the greeting!
