Chapter 356 Brothers

He is arrogant."

After the messenger left, Chen Jiujing was still full of mockery of the statement of such an agreement and the truce was sent to make Huang Xi, who had been waiting for a long time, which attracted Margaret's question: "Are you really afraid that the other two troops will come together to siege Bordeaux?"

This surprised Chen Jiujing: "Are you afraid? You are afraid you were so calm just now."

"Pretty." Margaret was quite honest, spreading her hands and laughing: "In our habit, even if the defeated negotiations are to be maintained, I don't want to be surrounded by three troops in the small city of Bordeaux, but what can I do? I've come."

This is the idea that I have been making trouble for a long time.

"Don't worry, those two troops will not come. At most, they will come two partial divisions. Do you ignore the rebellions in other places?"

Chen Jiujing had only had time to comfort Margaret in this way. Huang Xi, who had been waiting in the street for a long time, had already reported to the door and said with a fist: "General, Bei Zhi has received the supplies sent by the French at the mouth of the north river in the city."

"What are they?"

Interestingly, Chen Jiujing fought here in Berlong, but the city of La Rochelle in the north brought him supplies, which was also a major French port, but did not join the rebellion against the royal family.

"Two hundred bullets, a Franco cannon, one hundred and twenty swords, three hundred and sixty spearheads, hammers, five large barrels of gunpowder, and more than two thousand nails. Some were provided by the Protestants of England to assist La Rochelle Huguenots, and some were prepared by the people of La Rochelle themselves, but because their uprising did not receive the support of most people, they sent the weapons to us."

"There are also three bags of gold collected by the Huguenots of La Rochelle, which were said to be used to make the King of Navarra pay the mercenaries." Huang Xi said as he bowed to Chen Jiujing and said, "They didn't know whether King of Navarra is in Bordeaux, so they sent the money."

“France is so lively.”

It sounds like Margaret doesn't like support from La Rochelle. She can't even figure out her position. She just complained to Chen Jiujing: "This is obviously France, but you can see the armies of seven or eight countries here."

Only seven or eight?

Chen Jiujing curled his lips and did not answer.

I'm afraid that Margaret didn't count his people to say this.

The composition of this mixed army under his command alone is enough for what Margaret said.

He just comforted: "It's okay, England will soon lose the energy to take care of overseas affairs."

Margaret slowly shook her head and stood up. She didn't know much about England, but only knew that it had always been the enemy of France. She invited Chen Jiujing and said, "I want to go and see Henry, will the general come together?"

"Well……"

Chen Jiujing, who had always been calm, was stunned for a moment, then looked in Huang Xi's direction and said to Margaret: "I still have some military affairs to discuss with General Huang. You go first, I will try to see him after the matter is handled."

"Okay, if he wakes up and sees you, I'll go first."

After Margaret left, Huang Xi was confused and asked carefully: "What should the general discuss with the humble official?"

He really couldn't remember what Chen Jiujing had ordered him.

The only answered him was Chen Jiujing shook his head silently, which made him not know what to say. The embarrassment of death lasted for a long time before seeing Chen Jiujing raise his head again and said, "Let's go, order people to lead the horses. Let's go out of the city to go to the front line to see. Xiyong Camp has no ability in position defense."

This is certainly just an excuse, although the Spanish soldiers are indeed not used to defending the trenches, they do not have to patrol the front now.

He just didn't know how to meet him and Bourbon Henry like Margaret, as if it wasn't a very problematic arrangement.

The problem is big!

Chen Jiujing is now like a child who has made a mistake and dares not see Henry. Since the patient who was "paralyzed in bed" woke up, he was a little wrong.

Because he felt that he had made a mistake.

Outside the smelly trench outside Bordeaux, Chen Jiujing frowned and stared at the trench and muttered to himself: "If it smells very bad, pour it elsewhere...Cangguru."

He turned his head to ask Conguru, who was also scrambling, and said, "What do you think you're sending Navarra and Margo to Bilbao now? No, they should be sent to Caor City."

Delivered to Caor City?

Kanggulu curled his lips and said, "It's nothing to send the queen back, but the little thing was injured and could not go that far. The quack doctors under his command would have to besides the Bordeaux gate...oh! Is the general trying to kill that little thing?"

The breastplate of the Baishan Camp gang general was pounding, and his big eyes glared, and his strong flesh on his face said confidently: "Pack to me, I will teach him to break his neck tonight!"

"I can't do it! I didn't want him to die."

Chen Jiujing sighed, helpless, and didn't know how to clearly express what he was thinking to his subordinates, so he had to wave his hand and said, "You are right. Henry's physical condition cannot be marching for a long distance, and hundreds of miles will kill him."

In fact, it is not a question of how far the march is. The key is that no one in the Ming army trusts European doctors, especially Chen Jiujing.

He saw that Bourbon Henry was almost dead, but these people found a pastor for him to chant a mantra in his ear... Not to mention that Zhu Youke was removed in the fifth year of Longqing, even if it was not removed, Zhu Youke still had to wait until the patient was awake before affecting the patient's aura. What about psychology?

Not to mention that this is a golden trauma, not a strange disease with invisible symptoms, so it is not as good as Zhu You.

"Why do you always call him a little guy? Henry is in his forties or fifties? Even if he calls him something bad, he should call him an old guy?" Chen Jiujing curled his lips and said, "It is rare that he is very strong at his age."

"Aged forty or fifty? His people told me he was only twenty-seven."

Chen Jiujing blinked and recalled that Navara's beard and hair were all black, and said, "I look so anxious."

To be precise, it was brown, but Chen Jiujing was too lazy to analyze what color other people's hair was... Anyway, it would have to be black sooner or later.

When saving people, he didn't think so much, but felt that since Navara said, "The Kingdom is the shelter for Margo and her loved ones," he should also give Navara shelter, but now Henry woke up and his mind was subtle.

He knew very well that he had done something bad to Bourbon Henry and was ashamed.

What scene will they get when they meet? Bourbon Henry drew his sword and rushed towards him. Should he shoot him to death or should he shoot him to death?

Rather than doing this, it is better not to see you.

Apart from avoiding it for the time being, Chen Jiujing could not think of a solution.

The defense line is not in good condition.

The three Xiyong camp corps who entered the trenches were not used to staying in the trenches. They covered the city with beige tents. Although they worked very hard to arrange wooden stakes and traps and build small buildings, they were just disobedient.

They were not used to fighting as the Ming army required. Only when Chen Jiujing was scolded for inspecting the defense line would he send several companies into the trenches.

But Chen Jiujing could not touch them for the time being, but the frustrating general Salazar, the B camp general, was already planning to send him back to Spain after Billon ended his siege.

But sometimes, the more you avoid something, the sooner you will come to your door.

When he returned to the Governor's Mansion in the city, he had just turned over and dismounted, and heard Kangguru turn around and whisper: "General, that little thing is here!"

He turned around, and Bourbon Henry, who was wrapped in cotton bandages on his upper body, and his tights on his lower body stumbled and walked towards him quickly with ecstasy faces, and opened his arms. Chen Jiujing's first reaction was that Bourbon Henry did not take the weapon, and he relaxed his vigilance in his heart. He just touched the handle of the gun at his waist and was given a big hug by Bourbon Henry.

Then the Navarra king raised his head and pursed his bearded mouth and kissed Chen Jiujing at an extremely fast speed.

Yes, his target is Chen Jiujing's lips, so he is just a kiss.

However, his movements were forced to stop and his face was raised high, because his chin was pushed by a pistol, and there were two "clicks" sounds that made it into his ears, which were the sound of the flintlock musket's bolt being opened.

Two side-by-side gun barrels were pressed against their chins, two dragon heads were holding two flints, and the two triggers were locked by Chen Jiujing's index finger. A pair of black eyes were slightly lowered and looking at him at the distance between his nose and his nose.

"I, I heard from Margo that you saved my life, I must come and thank you, my brother!"

Chen Jiujing blinked, brother?
