Chapter 684
Ye Xun ordered Cao Wenzhao to organize this exercise, which is the most conventional method adopted by later generations to deter opponents through military exercises.

Now it seems that the effect is very good.

For more than six years, under the leadership of Ye Xun, although the entire army has not been able to update their weapons, the weapons of the frontline army are definitely the world's first-class level.

So when William watched the exercise, he immediately decided to write a letter to tell the Governor-General that he must never go to war with the Ming army. Regardless of the quality of the soldiers or the weapons, they are far from the opponents of the Ming army.

However, even though he decided not to go to war with the Ming army, William's mission was not complete. The governor meant to carve up the Indian Peninsula, and the Ming Dynasty lord had not given an answer to this, so he could only continue to the capital of Daming according to the original plan. up.

William and his party came by boat, so Ye Xun also changed land and took Treasure Ship No. [-], and went straight from Bohai Bay to Tianjin Port for landing.

The battleship set sail, and Ye Xun specially invited William to the treasure ship.

Currently, there are only six treasure ships in the Ming Fleet, two in the Northern Fleet, and the other four are in the Southern Fleet.

There is no war in the coastal waters, and it would cost a lot for treasure ships to go to sea once, so after building six ships, Ye Xun ordered to temporarily suspend production and build two thousand more medium-sized warships. This type of warship is highly mobile, and the cost of going to sea is not so high , very applicable.

Walking on the deck of the small castle-like treasure ship, Brigadier General William has become cautious. The arrogance he had when he first arrived in North Korea was put away honestly after watching the military exercises.

Ye Xun ordered someone to prepare a seafood feast. The food was good, but the wine was a bit wrong, because the wine bottle still contained his favorite, burning knives.

Seeing William coming, Ye Xun waved and said, "Friends from England, come and taste the wine our Daming man drinks, but I don't know if you're used to it or not."

William bowed respectfully and saluted Ye Xun before sitting opposite Ye Xun at Ye Xun's signal.

Among the British nobles, William is also known for his good drinking capacity. Now that business is so convenient, it is not uncommon for him to drink fine wine from the East. However, he never thought that the wine that Ye Xun said that the Ming man drank was actually not expensive. It is not a kind of wine, but a strong liquor invented by the northerners to keep out the cold.

He took the wine glass handed over by the guard, and before he could drink it, he felt a pungency blowing towards his face. He couldn't help but frowned, and wanted to say whether to drink it, but when he looked up, he saw Ye Xun looking at him with a mocking look. Looking at himself, he gritted his teeth, raised his head and drank a large cup of burning knives.

"cough"

After drinking a glass of wine, William felt that his entire stomach seemed to be on fire, and he coughed violently.

"Ha ha."

Seeing the embarrassing portrait of William, Ye Xun couldn't help smiling up to the sky, and after William's breath calmed down, he smiled and said, "I like people who drink and have a good time, you friend, I have a bus scheduled, come, give it to General William change wine”

William was already feeling dizzy at this moment, and only then did he understand what Ye Xun meant when he said whether he could get used to drinking.

Wiping away the hot tears with a silk scarf, he shook his head and said, "Is this wine? My God, how could Daming have such strong wine?"

After taking the wine brought by the guards, he took a few sips to calm down his churning stomach.

Ye Xun looked at him with a smile, and waited for William to calm down completely before he said, "General William, if I disagree with your governor's proposal, what do you think will be the consequences?"

William was stunned, and subconsciously said: "Dear Lord Ye, this is a win-win result. The Indian Peninsula is not the territory of Ming Dynasty. Our British Empire and your Ming Empire share the world equally. What's wrong? Do we have to fight each other? "

"Snapped!"

Ye Xun slammed the table, startling William immediately, wondering if this Eunuch Ye had burned too many knives and drank too much?Why are you so surprised.

"General William doesn't know me well. What I yearn for the most are those famous generals who will win the battlefield. I haven't fought a war for several years. I have heard that the British Empire is known as the empire on which the sun never sets. I think it will go to war with your country. It’s very interesting, let me see, you don’t have to go to the capital, go back and tell James, get ready, we will fight in the Indian peninsula to fulfill my dream.”

After Ye Xun finished speaking, he looked at William with piercing eyes, and his eyes clearly said, agree quickly!I can't wait
William was quite frightened. At this time, there were not many British troops deployed on the Indian peninsula, and their weapons were not advanced. If they really went to war with the Ming army, it would definitely be a disaster.

Almost without thinking, he said, "Master Ye, no!"

Taking a deep breath, he continued: "Forgive me, Lord Ye. This time I came here in a hurry, and there are some incomprehensions. Please don't be offended, sir. I will definitely give you a generous gift later."

"The war is fierce and dangerous. Once there is a war, the people who will be killed or injured will be the people of your two countries. Moreover, our two countries have no deep hatred. There is really no need to go to war. I only represent the governor. I hope that our two countries will be friendly from generation to generation. Brotherhood"

After the rise of the British East India Company, Brigadier General William had never spoken to anyone in such a humble manner, which shows how much psychological shadow the military exercise had on him.

Ye Xun knew that William had misunderstood that he was blackmailing him, so just blackmail him. Anyway, the wealth of these guys was plundered from other places, so he regarded it as robbing the rich and helping the poor.

He waved his hand at the guards, and saw two guards unfolding a huge map.

The sea wind was too strong, no one was keeping track of it, and the map was blown away long ago.

This is a world map reorganized by Ye Xun based on his memory, combined with the maps drawn by people of this era.

William is well-informed, but he has never seen such a complete world map.

With his mouth wide open, he looked at the map in disbelief, and stammered, "Master Ye, this, this is the world map?"

Ye Xun smiled slightly, pointed to the location of Britain and said, "This is that, General William should be familiar with it, right? See how it compares to me?"

What Ye Xun said was like a curse. England and Scotland combined at this time are not half as large as Liaodong, so what is the comparison?
William's face flushed immediately, but he couldn't find any words to refute.

Ye Xun then pointed to the Indian peninsula again, drew a half circle around the Indian peninsula, and said, "Give these places to Marshal Bashik, and Shah Jahan must be tried. This is my bottom line."

Seeing the places Ye Xun painted, William frowned, because almost all of Ye Xun's paintings were important coastal ports, and most of these places are now under the control of the East India Company. What a fart in the Far East!

He shook his head and said, "Respected Lord Ye, I have come to negotiate with you with a sincere heart. If you have this attitude, I'm afraid we will have nothing to talk about."

A soldier can be killed and cannot be humiliated, facing the rascal Ye Xun, the arrogance in William's bones was finally aroused.
