C3356 The Way of the Lord (1/2)
Britain had decided to stand up for Xiao Letian. They were not used to Xiao Letian's sudden rise to the top, and did not want the Asian countries to become too powerful.
However, the people of British Empire knew very well that Asian civilization was different from America and Africa. This ancient civilization had a very deep history, and it was not realistic to want to colonize it.
Only by supporting the pro-British regime, to carry out the rule of the semi-colonies!
The Qing Dynasty had more or less been tamed, but the UK was very clear that the Qing Dynasty was simply too decadent. Especially in the face of the Northern Sand Country's aggressive attacks, the Qing Dynasty did not even have the strength to fend them off.
Britain would never let Russia have a warm water port, not in Europe, not in the Black Sea, not even in Asia.
In Europe and the Black Sea, the British themselves can block the Russian, but in Asia the British power is a little beyond reach!
Who should he rely on? Since the Qing Dynasty was out of the question, they didn't even know what sea rights were!
Currently, it seemed that Xiao Letian was the most suitable choice, but everything that Xiao Letian had displayed was too wild and untamed!
If British Empire was unable to tame this powerful horse, she might as well kill it!
The question of gold and Spain's Philippines were all excuses. To the British, the Philippines, that barren land, was worthless. In the whole of Southeast Asia, only the Malacca Strait was important.
Gold is not a big problem. Since when did Britain lack 1.2 billion francs in gold?
The UK wants your Chinese attitude, wants to test if Xiao Letian is obedient!
I can make the former and current governments of Spain send representatives to disgust you!
Even if the negotiations were really not able to come to an end, you would still be placed under house arrest in Europe!
Don't go back, just stay in Europe and enjoy your old age, hoping that the Zhiyuan Warship will make it back to Asia? Do you think England is France?
The British's wolf ambition was obvious. At this moment, Gladstone and Duke Nexer were personally taking charge of the examination for Xiao Letian in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
As for Buckingham Palace, the Queen Mother and her son were also paying close attention to Xiao Letian's movements.
”Did those two people go see Xiao Letian yesterday?” The Queen Victoria said indifferently.
”Yes, mother! Since the two of them went to meet with Xiao Letian, they probably wanted to remind him of this point. After all, the two of them knew a lot about economics … ”
”Do we need to capture him?” The Crown Prince asked in a low voice.
The Queen shook her head, ”There's no need, there's no need to provoke those people. After all, they didn't start a conspiracy in England …” ”As long as they don't mess with our country, we can raise them and mess with other countries …”
”Isn't that a good thing?” The Queen said lightly.
”Yes, Mother …” I think so too, but Benjamin has previously expressed his worry, he is afraid that Xiao Letian will change his plan, and then we will not be able to do anything! ”
”Change the strategy?” The Queen put down the teacup in her hand: ”My child, you must remember, regardless of whether it is Benjamin or Gladstone, you must listen to their opinions, but we must also have our own analysis!”
”Everyone has their own reason for doing what they do and their own emotions for what they say!”
