¡°Dong dong~¡±
Above the Thames River, the thick smoke of gunpowder continued to melt into the rain and fog in London. Cannonballs roared in the sky, and then hit the tall buildings and castles in London heavily.
The whole of London fell into chaos. Countless people were scurrying around like headless flies. From time to time, unlucky people were smashed into pulp by artillery shells. Buildings continued to collapse. Many ancient buildings It became devastated in the flames of war.
The Spaniards, who hated the English pirates, were constantly venting their anger. Warships lined up in a long line on the Thames River. On both sides of the warships, cannons poured out fire all the time.
At the same time, the Spanish also began to land in a planned way, quickly forming an encirclement around London, intending to surround the entire London.
¡°Go straight to the Tower of London!¡±
"Compared with Spain's determination to bloodbath London, Tian Erniu's goal is much clearer.
After a bombardment, Tian Erniu and Jiang Liang commanded the army to quickly attack the Tower of London. The Tower of London is the seat of the British royal family. It must have the most wealth. At the same time, the King of England is also very likely to be there. it's here.
¡°Tap tap~ tap tap~¡±
Teams of Ming soldiers were dressed in neat uniforms, marching in neat steps, and their voices were very neat and clear, passing through the streets of London, causing every Londoner who saw the Ming soldiers to hurriedly hide.
With almost no resistance, Tian Erniu successfully reached the outskirts of the Tower of London and the outskirts of this huge castle. Of course, it is next to the Thames River and is very close.
"Blow it up for me~"
Tian Erniu looked at the Tower of London in front of him. They were all castles built of stone. They were very strong. It seemed that it would not be easy to attack them.
"General Mingguo, our King would like to have a talk with you!"
However, before Tian Erniu could take action, King Henry VII of England had already arrived at the Tower of London with his only remaining men and sent a message.
"What are you talking about?"
Tian Erniu looked at the British people on the castle and asked with a smile.
"There is no enmity between us in England and your country. As long as the general is willing to withdraw his troops, our king is willing to pay you a large sum of money."
¡°Let¡¯s talk about the amount first. If it¡¯s too little, I¡¯m not interested.¡±
When Tian Erniu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.
Is this European mentally ill? This has already hit home, and he still wants to use money to bribe himself, and in front of so many people. Even if it is a gold mountain, he would not dare to take it. .
"We are willing to pay the general 20,000 pounds!"
"Approximately how much silver is twenty thousand pounds?"
When Tian Erniu heard this, he thought about it and asked Jiang Liang beside him.
"Twenty thousand pounds is almost equivalent to fifty thousand taels of silver."
Jiang Liang thought for a while and said: "Europe is a bit troublesome. I can't calculate the various currencies very accurately. They are just worthless anyway. The British are very poor, and their annual fiscal income is not very high." It won¡¯t be more than a hundred thousand pounds.¡±
"It's only fifty thousand taels of silver, and I'm sending it to beggars~"
When Tian Erniu heard this, he couldn't help but cursed and said to the people around him: "Blow me hard and blow open the gate of this castle."
"Yes~"
As Tian Erniu¡¯s order was issued, the order was quickly conveyed to the Ming warships on the Thames through semaphore soldiers. Suddenly, the artillery on the warships were all aimed at the Tower of London.
With the rumbling sound of shelling, cannonballs carrying terrifying energy continued to bombard the Tower of London.
"shit~"
"These Ming people are like shit~"
Henry VII on the castle could not help but curse while hurriedly avoiding the cannonballs.
He didn¡¯t understand why he was willing to give the other party a huge fortune of 20,000 pounds, but the other party responded directly with artillery fire.
You must know that the annual income of the British royal family is only about 50,000 pounds or 20,000 pounds. This is already a huge wealth.
Of course he doesn¡¯t know that tens of thousands of pounds of wealth is nothing to Tian Erniu. You must know that the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire Xiao Jing gave Tian Erniu so much gold and silver every year.?How can you pretend to be cool when you are a prisoner?
"What does it mean?"
Henry VII calmed down and asked calmly.
"It means death!"
"In our east, if a monarch surrenders, it means death and no longer being a monarch."
"In our Ming Empire, the best way to capture the other party's slaves is to sell them as slaves. I think you should be able to sell them for a good price."
Tian Erniu smiled and said, "Pretend with me, you are already a prisoner, what kind of courtesy are you talking about, bullshit, if you are not retained, you are still useful, now you will be sold directly to the Golden Continent, over there in the Golden Continent" Many farms, plantations and the like should be happy to buy these slaves from Europe.
"No, no~"
"You can't do this~"
"Killing us will not do you any good. Keep us and we can discuss peace talks. We are willing to use ransom to redeem our freedom."
When Henry VII heard that he was going to be sold as a slave, he immediately panicked completely. If he was sold as a slave, he could imagine his miserable life in the future.
"This is wrong. Be honest with me. If you don't let me, I will hand you all over to the Spaniards. I think they will be very happy to send you to the guillotine."
Seeing that he was subdued, Tian Erniu nodded with satisfaction, and then couldn't help but said: "You poor guy, I guess you can't squeeze out much oil and water."
