Chapter 442 England

Chapter 442 English

Masayoshi Miyamoto continued: "I have never heard of this name, so I asked the people on the ship. They told me that the English country is just west of the Pacific Ocean, and it is an island country like us. But they are not only developing well in their economic strength, but also in their military strength, especially the navy. In their opinion, the red cannons cast by our Japan are all pediatricians."

When Emperor Yunze frowned slightly and then laughed out loud when he heard that the red cannon was a pediatric department in England.

"Prime Minister, you can see the power of this red cannon. If this is a pediatric department, then what else is there in this world?"

Masayoshi Miyamoto bowed: "I thought so at that time, but England then launched a new cannon for Heichen, saying it was called a 'howiter'. This new cannon can fill two ammunition at one time, and there are sights on the cannon, and there are no dead corners within a radius of 1,000 meters. Heichen asked them to try it, and sure enough, they bombed the target floating on the sea with one shot."

Hearing this, Emperor Yunze couldn't sit still, stood up and walked to Miyamoto Masayoshi, holding his hand.

"Prime Minister, you didn't lie to me. Is this howitzer really that powerful?"

"How dare I deceive you Your Majesty? If you don't believe it, I can invite that person. If you ask him personally, you will know if I have deceived you."

Emperor Yunze nodded.

Miyamoto Masayoshi retired.

As soon as he left, the defense minister Matsumoto stepped forward and bowed to Emperor Yunze: "Your Majesty, I dare to say, is this Prime Minister a scam? Is it a scam? I really believe that the British are really so powerful. If they are really so powerful, why should they be friendly with Liang? Isn't they able to get more benefits by relying on their own force?"

Emperor Yunze blanched his eyes at Matsumoto Yilang and said nothing.

Matsumoto Iran saw Emperor Yunze’s displeasure, so he didn’t dare to say more and retreated silently.

Miyamoto Masayoshi led a tall man with yellow hair, blue eyes and hooked nose to meet Emperor Yunze.

This person is somewhat similar to Tieluo, but it is much taller than Tieluo.

Emperor Yunze is already very tall in Japan, nine feet tall, but he is still very short in front of the Englishman in front of him.

"This is our Emperor."

Miyamoto Masayoshi pointed at Emperor Yunze and introduced it to the Englishman.

The Englishman looked at Emperor Yunze, pressed his right hand on his chest, and bowed slightly to Emperor Yunze, which was considered a salute.

Emperor Yunze was puzzled when he saw him like this and looked at Masayoshi Miyamoto on the side.

"Your Majesty, this is the English salute. He is saluteing you."

Miyamoto Masayoshi explained.

Emperor Yunze nodded slightly and waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be polite to distinguished guests."

The Englishman could not understand Japanese language and asked Miyamoto Masayoshi in Chinese: "What did your Majesty say?"

Emperor Yunze was proficient in Chinese and continued, "I told you that you are a distinguished guest of our country, so you don't have to be so polite. You are from England. I wonder what your status is in England?"

"The name in the English country is Jack, but I think it is not easy to remember. When I went to Central Plains to do business, I specially named myself Eihua. Your Majesty, you can call me Jack or Eihua. My family is a nobleman of the English country and is a relative of Elizabeth, the Queen of England."

When he heard that the Englishman in front of him was a nobleman of the English country and a relative with the queen, Emperor Yunze immediately felt good about him and asked Ai Hua to sit down with a smile.

Ai Hua was not polite either, so he bowed to Emperor Yunze and sat down.

"This time, when we were heading to Liang Kingdom for trade, a powerful storm suddenly appeared on the sea, and our ships had no way to sail. We happened to see that you had an island here, so we immediately turned the bow and rushed here. Fortunately, we walked quickly and entered your port smoothly, otherwise we would definitely be buried in the sea. So, this time we are very grateful to you."

As he said that, Ai Hua stood up and pressed his hand on his chest to salute Emperor Yunze again.

Emperor Yunze was very satisfied with Ai Hua's attitude, and waved his hand and smiled, "This is all a small matter. If you can come to Japan, it may be God's will, so that I can get to know England and Gili. I heard that your economic development is where, especially your navy, are very strong. I intend to trade with you. I wonder if your country can make the decision?"

Ai Hua smiled and said, "Your Majesty, it's not Ai Hua. Our English country has a very developed industry, and domestic railways and road transportation are well-connected. As for military forces, the English country has nearly 300,000 active personnel, including 150,000 and 60,000 in the army, 150,000 and 160,000 in the navy, more than 30 warships, and nearly 30 red-clothed cannons and howitzers. In addition, we have a large number of reserves and cannons that can be put into the battlefield at any time."

"His Majesty the Queen heard that a new dynasty emerged in the Central Plains - Liang State. They also had railways, roads, red cannons and howitzers, and they thought it was very strange, so they specially sent me to take a boat to cross the sea to meet Liang State. First, to see what happened, and second, to discuss the development of the maritime economy of Liang State."

When Emperor Yunze heard this, his eyes lit up and he laughed in his heart.

He always thought how could Wu Tian suddenly understand railways, highways and the development of such powerful red-clothed cannons and howitzers. It turned out that these things were obtained from England.

"Dear guest, since you are destined to come to Japan, we also want to make more friends. Are you willing to make friends with us? As long as your country is willing, I can open coastal trading ports to you for free. All English merchants who come to Japan to develop trade will be exempted by half."

Hearing these two preferential conditions, Ai Hua's eyes lit up.

This Japan happened to be the intermediate station for him to go to Liang Kingdom, and when necessary it could also be used as an island for storing items.

Thinking of this, Aihua stood up, bowed to Emperor Yunze, and smiled and said, "His Majesty the Emperor is so kind, how dare Aihua retreat? Well, Aihua will reach an agreement on behalf of our English and His Majesty. From then on, the English and Japanese countries will establish diplomatic relations. English merchants and Japanese merchants can communicate with each other and strengthen trade. At the same time, Japan is also an ally of the English countries in East Asia."

Emperor Yunze nodded slightly.

"Okay, from now on, Japan and England will be allies. However, I have a request now, and I hope the distinguished guest can agree to me."

"Your Majesty's request, I know that Your Majesty wants a howitzer?"
