Magic medicine?

Tojo 28 felt that his IQ had been challenged.

In Tojo 28's cognition, fushou ointment is indeed a good thing, so good that it can make people forget their pain and troubles, and it can be regarded as an out-and-out luxury in Japan, which is not something ordinary people can enjoy at all.

Now, these rose beef in England actually keep saying that this stuff is a magic medicine given to them by God?

But before Tojo 28 opened his mouth to reprimand, there was a rumbling burst of artillery in the distance, followed by bursts of fire and explosions in front of the English position.

Tojo 28 had to hold back the civilized terms such as red deer and baga, turned to stare at Edward and Richard, and asked, "Now, what are you going to use to fight back against those French frogs?"

Edward and Richard looked at each other, and found that the words "dumb" were written on each other's faces.

Europa has never had a tradition of fighting at night, let alone artillery fighting at night!

Edward tentatively said: "Perhaps, they were just shooting guns, and didn't think about attacking?"

Richard also echoed: "That's right, that's right, we can't see it at night, and they certainly can't see it at night. I guess even these few shots were shot indiscriminately."

Tojo 28 glanced at the two of them disdainfully, and said with a sneer, "Then what? We just wait here foolishly, and let the French frogs on the opposite side hit you?"

Seeing that both Edward and Richard were pretending to be crazy, Tojo 28 simply pointed out all the topics: "The reason why George III has not taken any action is not because he has nothing to do with us, but because he has nothing to do with us." Take a gamble and see if we can take advantage of it."

"If we can tear a piece of flesh out of France, then everything before that, including our detention of George III's emissary, will not matter."

"But if we lose the battle, not only will England not be able to take advantage of it, but it may be possible to cut flesh and compensate France. Then George III will never let us go."

Edward looked at Richard again, with a bit of dissatisfaction on his face: "It's true that our soldiers in England like to take drugs, but the French frogs on the opposite side are no better than us. Why don't we Any chance of winning?"

Richard even snorted coldly: "Now we are in France, and you control the army of England, even if His Majesty George is dissatisfied with you, what can he do to you?"

Tojo 28 sneered, "Of course he can't do anything to me, but that doesn't mean he can't do anything to you—don't forget, you still have parents, wives, mistresses, and a whole lot of sons, daughters, illegitimate children, and others." An illegitimate daughter."

"The reason why George III didn't threaten your relatives was because he wanted to take a gamble, but what you are doing now is obviously to make him lose everything."

After being told by Tojo 28, Edward and Richard immediately panicked.

Just as Louis XVI had to worry about those French nobles, George III also had to worry about those nobles in England.

It just so happened that Edward and Richard were of noble origin in England, otherwise they would not have been able to get into the positions of commander-in-chief of the army and navy.

The two also guessed George III's mentality of wanting to gamble. Otherwise, Edward and Richard would not have repeatedly rejected George III's order to withdraw troops.

But if you really lose...

This pot is not too big, but it is not too small. Anyway, it is enough for the Edward family and the Richard family to drink a pot.

What's more terrible is that there is really a possibility of losing now - before this, both Edward and Richard felt that their army was not weaker than the French frogs, at least not much weaker. With a huge advantage, even if a peace is negotiated later, the two of them can be regarded as meritorious ministers.

However, who would have thought that those French frogs who don't talk about martial arts would choose to launch a sneak attack at night?

Thinking of the price of being beaten up by the French frogs, Edward panicked even more, and he looked at Tojo 28 with a flattering look: "Mr. Tojo, what happened before has happened, now we have to do it." It should be to find a way to solve the threat of those French frogs?"

Richard also quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, Edward is right, it's meaningless to pursue the past now, why don't you hurry up and find a way to deal with those French frogs?"

Tojo 28 sneered and said, "What is the solution? These shells mixed with sand? Or use these drug ointments?"

Before Edward and Richard could answer, Tojo 28 continued to ask: "Now tell me honestly, how many shells are mixed with sand?"

Edward and Richard looked at each other, and then replied in a low voice: "About a third, but we also found sand in the shells fired by the French frogs on the opposite side!"

Looking at Edward who suddenly became hardened, Tojo 28 immediately laughed angrily: "Are you two fools? This is French land. It doesn't matter how many shells they have mixed with sand, because they can add more. Cannonballs mixed with sand."

"But what about us?"

"Without supplies from the rear, we can only win this battle with the shells we have in hand!"

"It's all right now, you two red deer, can any of you tell me that suddenly one-third of the shells are missing, how will the next battle be fought?"

Speaking of this, Tojo 28 suddenly sighed, and didn't expect Edward and Richard to be able to answer their own questions, but after giving the order to counterattack, he ordered the messenger to summon all the English officers.

After everyone arrived, Tojo 28 said straight to the point: "I already know about the sand mixed in the shells and bullets. Now, I don't want to hold anyone accountable. I just want to tell everyone that we can only and must use those things." Sound shells and bullets fight the battle."

"As for why, you may or may not understand, but it doesn't matter. After the meeting is over, you can ask Edward and Richard, and they can tell you why."

The faces of all the English officers were covered with the words "don't care".

Because everyone is of noble origin.

In particular, Justin, the son of England's treasury chief, said with a playful smile: "Actually, the situation is not that serious. I will find a way to get my father to send another batch of supplies, huh, including the magic medicine."

As soon as Justin finished speaking, all the English officers present became excited. Not only did some people clap each other's shoulders to express their excitement, some even took off their hats and threw them into the air.

Tojo 28's complexion immediately darkened, and he was about to say something when he saw a ronin warrior rushing over, bowed his head and said: "Your Excellency Tojo, the ambassador of the Ming Empire to England has sent someone to ask You go there immediately!"

Tojo 28 was taken aback for a moment, but when he came back to his senses, he simply ignored Edward and Richard who were looking at each other. After arranging their clothes, they rushed to the headquarters with the ronin warrior who sent the message.

As soon as he arrived at the headquarters, Tojo 28's heart sank to the bottom - standing in the headquarters was a man in the clothes of the Ming Dynasty, and with his appearance obviously from the Ming Dynasty, Tojo 28 could be sure that this was the representative of the Daming Empire. An envoy sent by the English ambassador.

But beside the envoy, there was another man in English military uniform, and Tojo 28 had seen this man before.

The son of George III, the Prince of Wales of England, can almost be regarded as the crown prince of the next King of England, George Jr.

These two people standing together, the signal released...

Ignoring the little George who was looking at him with a sneer, Tojo 28 directly saluted the person sent by the Ming ambassador to England: "Tojo 28 pays homage to the envoy!"

The person called the envoy by Tojo 28 nodded with a smile, and then said, "Tojo, do you know the purpose of my visit this time?"

Tojo 28 shook his head slightly, and replied: "Excuse Tojo for being stupid, and I hope the envoy will show you?"

The envoy smiled and said, "Tojo, your mission in England is over. The Ming ambassador to England has decided to transfer you back to Tianzhu to be responsible for forming the Second Corps of Tianzhu Labor Recruitment, and you will be the commander of the Second Corps."

Hearing this news, Tojo 28 felt somewhat unclear.

If he had received this news when he was in Tianzhu, Tojo 28 would have jumped up happily, lamenting the smoke rising from his family's ancestral grave.

However, after commanding the army in England, Tojo 28 suddenly lost interest in the labor recruitment corps—although recruiting labor also requires fighting, but fighting the third brother in Tianzhu, how can it be compared to fighting French frogs in France?

Comparing the two, Tojo 28 inevitably has a feeling of riding a roller coaster in his heart.

After thinking about it, Tojo 28 still couldn't help but tentatively asked: "Master Messenger, the English army is currently fighting the French army, the arrangements made by the villain..."

The messenger shook his head with a smile, and said, "Tojo, the Prince of Wales will take over England's army, and the rest of the matter is between England and France, so you don't need to ask."

Tojo 28 fell silent.

Deliberately want to agree, but unwilling.

He wanted to refuse, but he didn't have the courage.

Tojo 28 knew very well that on the surface Tokugawa Ieqi was the speaker of the Japanese Tokugawa shogunate, but in fact he was a dog raised by the Ming Empire. If the Ming Empire wanted the Tokugawa Ieqi to bite anyone, the Tokugawa Ieqi would never Without hesitation, he rushed to bite.

Just as Edward's and Richard's families were controlled by King George III, Tojo 28's own family was also controlled by Tokugawa Iezari—if he dared to violate the orders of the Ming Empire's ambassador to England, Order, then everything that will happen next is naturally self-evident.

What made Tojo 28 even more desperate was that even if he chose to give up his family, he still didn't have the guts to refuse the order - beside the envoy in front of him, there was a guard wearing a Ming military uniform.

After thinking about it secretly, Tojo 28 couldn't help but started another round of probing: "Master Messenger, can Tojo wait to get up after this battle is over?"

Seeing Tojo 28's temptations from left to right, the envoy sent by Ming's ambassador to England also lost patience, looking at Tojo 28 with warnings in his eyes: "Tojo, you are a smart man, you should Do you know what is the right choice?"

After the messenger's voice fell, the guard beside him also moved forward slightly.

The meaning is obvious, you Tojo 28 can play tricks when facing those English barbarians, but when facing Ming Dynasty, you can either be obedient or die.

With a flash of thought, Tojo 28 immediately made the correct decision: "Hayi! Please report to the ambassador, the messenger. Tojo will return to Tianzhu immediately and start preparations for the Second Labor Recruitment Corps."

After the emissary with a smile on his face left with Tojo 28, Prince George Jr. of Wales, who was sent by George III to take over the command, had a sullen face and shouted at Edward, Richard and other English officers. Arrived at the headquarters.

Facing the English officers such as Edward and Richard, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales was not as silent as he had just shown.

"Mr. Edward, Mr. Richard, both of you, please gather your troops immediately and gather towards the shore."

George III's own son, Prince of Wales, England's first crown prince by default, George Jr. began to give orders unceremoniously: "No matter how many territories you have laid before, give up now, immediately, immediately."

"And all the gentlemen here, please manage the soldiers under your hands well, let them maintain their military demeanor, and don't behave like robbers!"

As Little George's voice fell, all the English officers present were suddenly stunned.

Justin, who is in charge of the treasury of England, asked even more bluntly: "Why? Does His Highness George think we can't beat those damn French frogs?"

Little George sneered, and asked bluntly: "Why do you think you can beat those French frogs? Is your father the manager of the treasury of England?"

Justin's complexion suddenly became the same as that of a pig's liver—although he always boasted about having a good father, and even relied on "The Years My Father Was in charge of the National Treasury" and "Analysis of How My Father Managed the National Treasury" After a group of papers became famous, Justin couldn't help being angry and annoyed that they were said so nakedly and in a very mocking tone.

It's just that no one thought that Justin would actually go crazy in a fit of anger, and as soon as his head got hot, he said to little George: "What's wrong with my father being in charge of the treasury of England? I think my army is quite capable!"
