Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

"Quick, move quickly! At the intersection over there, get a few more people and seal the road! No one is allowed to approach for a while! As long as someone approaches, shooting is allowed!" An officer with the rank of Daxia Major commanded. His own soldiers manned the streets.

The soldiers quickly piled some sandbags on the street.

After these soldiers built a simple defense line with sandbags, soldiers immediately entered the fortifications and aimed their guns at several buildings on the other side of the street.

There were the legations of John and Gaul.

At this time, in the legation of the Kingdom of John, Alex, the Gallic minister, looked at Ambassador Andrew beside him with some worry.

"Dear Mr. Andrew, now that the Daxia people have surrounded us in the legation, what should we do now?"

When Andrew heard Alex's words, he also frowned. He did not expect that these Daxia people would be so bold as to surround the legation.

The Kingdom of John and the Kingdom of Gaul now have less than [-] armed forces in the legation. However, there are at least more than a thousand Daxia soldiers surrounding the legation.

Moreover, we only have some light weapons and no artillery here. If we fight like this, we will be at a huge disadvantage.

Thinking of this, Andrew felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had known this, he should have left the city immediately after submitting the official document.

He believed that with the protection of elite John soldiers, he could escape very easily outside the city.

But now, being surrounded by people in the city, he was not sure how long people like him could last.

However, although Andrew was worried, he still said to Alex calmly: "Dear Alex, don't worry."

"We still have elite guards. As long as we defend those fortresses, these Daxia soldiers can't attack them."

"And, based on my understanding of the Daxia soldiers, as long as we can repel one or two of their attacks and give them enough casualties, they will not attack."

Alex was slightly relieved when he heard Andrew say this.

"Mr. Andrew, you are right. As long as we can defend once or twice, these Daxia soldiers will lose all their energy."

"In that case, we can hold on until our army arrives! At that time, I will definitely make Daxia responsible for today's actions!"

Alex said with a fierce look on his face.

At this time, Andrew also wanted to say a few words, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the door of the reception room was pushed open from the outside.

"Dear Mr. Andrew, that's bad!" A fat man wearing a chef's outfit walked straight in.

"There are many Daxia soldiers coming outside!" Andrew's chef said eagerly.

"Oh, damn it! I'm not blind, I can see! And how many times have I told you that no one is allowed to disturb me when I'm meeting guests!"

"Besides! I didn't ask you to prepare a sumptuous lunch, why did you come here?" Andrew asked with some dissatisfaction.

"Sorry, dear Mr. Andrew, I didn't mean to disturb you, but there were a lot of Daxia soldiers outside, and they surrounded us." Li Li wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"I know, but they won't be able to come in for a while, and I need to have lunch with Mr. Alex now. Your task is to prepare now."

"Sorry, Mr. Andrew, I'm afraid there's no way to prepare lunch. Because of the blockade in Daxia, I can't go out to buy." Li Li said with some embarrassment.

He wanted to say this as soon as he entered the door, but every time he opened his mouth, Andrew would directly interrupt him when he mentioned the Daxia people's blockade.

"What, there's no way to purchase it?" Andrew said in disbelief.

"Yes, Mr. Andrew, I just went out and wanted to buy food, but those rude Daxia people drove me back with guns!" Li Li said with some grievance.

After hearing Li Li's words, Andrew suddenly felt that things were a little serious.

He walked up to Li Fei, looked at the fat man Li Fei, and then asked: "How much food do we have now?"

"Dear Mr. Andrew, there are only some wheat flour and Hans sausages in the mansion now. Even these are only enough for three or four days." After careful calculation, he said to Andrew.

"What? Damn it!" Andrew cursed, and then continued: "I hate Hans sausage and Daxia!"

Andrew now understood the Daxia people's plan. They surrounded the legation and built fortifications, not for the purpose of attacking, but because they really just wanted to surround the place.

Andrew estimated that their embassy had been targeted a long time ago. They had been calculating the food inventory in the embassy and deliberately chose this time to surround it.

What they want is to let people like themselves surrender to Daxia because of lack of food.

Thinking of this, Andrew sneered.

"You want to use this to force me to surrender? You really underestimate my country, John!"

Andrew immediately walked out of the room and came to a small room where a telegraph machine was placed.

"Send a message to Commander Edward of the Combined Fleet and tell him that Daxia is now besieging the mansion. There is insufficient supplies in the mansion. I hope he can go directly north to attack the Imperial Capital of Daxia and end this war!" Andrew said to the radio operator! arrive.

"Yes, sir!" The transmitter nodded, then sat in front of the transmitter and crackled a message to the commander of the combined fleet.

At this time, in the eastern waters of Wujiang County, a large combined fleet was sailing on the sea.

The flagship of this combined fleet is John's latest model of Barbarian-class armored cruiser, Barbaric.

Then, in addition to this armored cruiser, the entire fleet also has 9 light cruisers and some destroyers. There are 20 combat ships in total.

Their mission was to escort fifteen troop transport ships heading north from Asan Kingdom to attack Daxia.

Now, Major General John Edward's goal is Wujiang, which is fifty nautical miles away.

This is the earliest trading port in Daxia, and now it has become the most important deep-water port in Daxia.

Edward thought that as long as he occupied this place, Daxia would probably feel distressed for a long time. When the time comes, if Daxia wants to redeem Wu Jiang, he will need to spend at least tens of millions of silver dollars.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Edward's face.

"Your Excellency, Commander, I have received an urgent telegram from Lord Andrew!" Edward's adjutant saluted him and then handed over the telegram in his hand.

Edward just glanced at him, and his smiling face immediately turned dark.

"Command the fleet to turn! The new target is the Imperial Capital of Great Xia!"
