Chapter Eleven: Leaving the Tiger's Den
Although Delis was about to leave, she walked very slowly and stopped. She wanted Zhang Biwu to beg her, but she didn't want to leave. In the end, Zhang Biwu ignored Delis, and Delis had to leave angrily.
Zhang Biwu sighed. He was like fifteen buckets in his heart. Was his decision correct? At the beginning, he only thought about the national system and national honors. He could only put his personal safety behind him. Although Zhang Biwu was so sure that he could go back alive, he was really not sure whether he could go back alive.
Early the next morning, "Take Zhang Biwu out!" Not long after, a roar came in, and they brought Zhang Biwu out without saying a word.
Zhang Biwu was taken to the deck, and he saw that there was a guillotine and a hanger. Foreigners liked to kill people the most was to kill them or hang them.
When Zhang Biwu saw all this, he couldn't help but feel moved. He thought to himself: "Do I have to die here? Alas! Is my judgment wrong? Weedel dare not kill me, but now he wants to kill me! My judgment is wrong?" He looked at the hanging rack and the guillotine, and he couldn't help swallowing a big mouthful of saliva, as if his heart fell from a high altitude.
His face was beating, and he was unwilling to give up, because he had not fully demonstrated his talents and would die. What was important was that there were no generals in the Ming army, and he still had to shoulder the important task of fighting against the Qing Dynasty.
However, Zhang Biwu thought again that if his death could ruin Britain's face and make foreign countries such as Portugal and the Netherlands convinced China, so that there would be no major events in the southern coastal areas, it would be considered a good thing.
Moreover, if his heroic deeds can be spread among the Ming army, so that the Ming army soldiers can rise up to their bravery, wipe out the decline of the Ming army and restore the former brave army, then his death will be worth it. But Zhang Biwu regrets that he really doesn't want to die. He wants to make achievements, and he wants to return to Qin Huaiyu!
When Zhang Biwu thought of this, he was at ease. Since he was dying, it would be better to die generously than to shrink back!
Zhang Biwu looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly, which was also a time for death. Without saying a word, Zhang Biwu came to the guillotine and said, "Come on! If you want to kill, kill it! Anyway, after you kill, you will show your despicableness, and you will keep me in the name of your friends, but you have killed me. I think all countries in the world will use this as a laughing stock! Okay! Having said that, kill it!"
Weidell turned to Zhang Biwu and asked, "Are you really not afraid of death?" Zhang Biwu replied, "Fear! But what's the use of being afraid of me! I took a look at it. Isn't it okay to die today? You can't blame anyone, just blame yourself for being mistaken! The judgment is wrong and you think you won't kill me! Since you are wrong, you have to pay for your mistakes! I thought you, Weidell, have a patriotism but didn't expect it but didn't! I overestimated you!"
This is what Zhang Biwu was thinking about. In fact, he was sighing. He really wanted to live. He hadn't lived enough yet. He still wanted to see Huaiyu and continued to gallop on the battlefield, even if he died in the battlefield.
Widdle was beating, obviously he was very unhappy, he sighed in his heart: "Oh! Zhang Biwu! I originally planned to make you look disgraceful and embarrass you China! But you straightened your chest, making people have to be respectful! I can't be a villain anymore! I must show my generous look! After all, Noretti and the others are still watching!"
"Pa!" Applause came! "Hero!" Weidell gave a thumbs up and said, "Mr. Norreti, have you seen it? I said that my friend Zhang Biwu is a hero!"
As soon as his words fell, not only Noretti came out, but also a red-haired ghost came out. This red-haired ghost was hovering in Taiwan, the young general of Helan, Lang Bi is Rigo. However, it can be seen that Lang Bi is Rigo did not respect Zhang Biwu very much, after all, he was young and energetic.
Fortunately, it was not Hans Putmans who built the city of Jelancha to the East India Company. If he were there, he would have been defeated by Zheng Zhilong in the Battle of Liaoluo Bay. As soon as he saw another excellent general in the Ming army, he was not afraid of any face and had to kill this excellent general.
Widell said, "Okay! Biwu, I have prepared a feast for you, and I will have a good meal, and then I will send you ashore!"
Zhang Biwu ate a meal at Weidell openly, and then said goodbye and left.
During this, Terry found Widdle in confusion and asked, "Commander-in-Chief, why did you let him go? He caused such great harm to us and insulted us. Why didn't he kill him? I really can't figure it out!"
Widdle gave the reason: "Zhang Biwu said he was a friend in front of so many people, so he stayed with me. If we killed him, our British Empire would be completely disgraced! It would be ridiculed by the countries when it was reported back to Europe! When the king blamed him, we would not be able to take it away! And..."
Widell whispered: "The Portuguese Norreti and the others wanted us to kill Zhang Biwu immediately. They were afraid that China would have excellent generals, so that they would not be able to trade with China and would be subject to the powerful Ming army."
"Like this, if the Ming army is not strong, they will be beneficial! Our trade with China cannot be opened, and it is all the Portuguese in Macau who interferes. Why should we help Portugal and the Netherlands? Let them continue to understand the power of the Ming army! You must know that Portugal and the Netherlands are more threatening to our Britain than China! These two countries are strong enough to threaten our British Empire! What we can't get, we can't let others get it!"
"This is beneficial to the country, and for me, I am not concerned about villains. Zhang Biwu has repeatedly insulted me, so I can let him go! Don't others say I am magnanimous? I want to kill Zhang Biwu, but I have to let him go! I think he must have thought of this too! But there is one thing he could not think of!"
Terry was anxious. What was something that Zhang Biwu could not think of? Is there a trick that could kill Zhang Biwu? So Terry was eager to know Widell's trick.
Widdle smiled sinisterly and said, "I still want to take a try. If we can seize the last opportunity to open the door to trade with China, the hard work we have worked hard over the past year will not be in vain! After all, the profits of trade with China are amazing! People are crazy! I don't want to give up such sweet cheese! I already have a clever plan! If I do this, my clever plan can succeed! I can also use the Dutch! Hehehe!"
Terry didn't understand. What trick did Weidell have to let Zhang Biwu leave? His face showed disappointment. He wanted his love rival to disappear from this world as soon as possible!
Weidell put his hand on Terry's shoulder and said, "Young man! You have a lot to learn! You can wait and see! Once my plan is successful, I will let Mingguo learn how powerful we are and make them surrender! And my shame can be returned together! When all countries hear my brilliant plan to open the door to trade with China, my reputation will be far away! Haha!"
