Chapter 488 The last vassal country surrendered
Although some princes of the Bukhara Khanate were angry and dissatisfied, they still accepted their fate. However, some princes were unwilling to accept that they wanted to resist the Bukhara Khanate's reversal to the Chinese Empire, but with their own strength, they could not compete with the Chinese Empire at all, so they could only ask for help from the Tsarist Russian Empire and the British Empire, hoping to use the power of Britain and Russia to prevent the Chinese Empire from annexing the Bukhara Khanate.
The ministers of the Bukhara Khanate quickly divided into two factions, supporting the king to defect to the Chinese Empire, or supporting the prince to seek help from Britain and Russia, which led to the Bukhara Khanate's division.
Mahtum is the third prince, and he is most likely to become the next king of the Bukhara Khanate, but now his sister Marika is about to marry the Chinese Empire. In the future, Marika and the son of the Chinese Empire Emperor Li Weiguo will become the king of the Bukhara Khanate.
When Mahtum thought of this, he became very irritable. He wanted to kill his own sister Marika and stop this political marriage.
Rights make family affection dull.
Even if it is just a small country, it will fight to the death for its power.
In the Bukhara Khanate, 80% of its territory is in deserts, and there is only one way to the Chinese Empire. Through the Aiwuhan Khanate, we will follow the Silk Road to enter the Chinese Empire.
Marika married the Chinese Empire from afar. She could have taken a flight to the Chinese Empire directly, and even took Herat in the Aiwuhan Khanate. There was a world railway built by the Chinese Empire, and she could take the railway to reach the Chinese Empire directly.
However, Mahtumu deliberately refused to take airships and trains on the grounds of traditional Bukhara Khanate customs, and insisted on letting his sister Marika walk on the road, using the excuse that he would miss the land of the Bukhara Khanate in the end and accept blessings from the people of the Bukhara Khanate along the way.
The old king did not doubt Mahtum's intentions. He would never have thought that Mahtum would be crazy about killing his own sister, so he agreed with Mahtum's suggestion and asked Marika to ride a horse to the Chinese Empire and receive blessings from the Bukhara people along the way.
In this way, Marika took her dowry to head to the Chinese Empire.
The Ministry of Rites of the Chinese Empire has received a notice from the Bukhara Khanate to prepare for weddings.
"The undercurrents are surging in the Bukhara Khan, and opposition is coming one after another. I am afraid that some people will collude with the British and Russians. We should make a complete solution to prevent changes."
Zhou Fu, Minister of Rites, came to the Ministry of War in person, found Secretary of War Zhang Xiaoliu, and expressed his concerns.
Zhang Xiaoliu nodded and said, "Indeed, Britain and Russia will not give up. It is very likely to destroy this marriage. If something happens to the princess of the Bukhara Khanate, it will inevitably affect the Bukhara Khanate's decision to become an imperial vassal state. Say it, what do you want me to do?"
Zhou Fu said: "Send an elite force to secretly protect!"
Zhang Xiaoliu thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, I will call the Western Theater Command and ask them to send troops to protect them along the way! However, the domestic situation in the Bukhara Khanate is tense now, and they will not allow my army to enter the Bukhara Khanate to protect Princess Marika!"
Zhou Fu frowned and said, "You can only welcome it at the border? That's useless! You must put pressure on the Bukhara Khanate to allow us to send troops in. Since it is a wedding team, it should make sense! I will solve this matter, just draw personnel! It's best to be the most elite soldiers of the empire. After all, even if the Bukhara Khanate agrees, it will not allow the number of people to exceed the limit, so there can't be too many!"
Zhang Xiaoliu nodded and agreed, and directly transferred the troops of a squadron of the Tiger Commando from the Central War Zone Special Operations Brigade.
Before leaving, Zhang Xiaoliu personally named Lieutenant Colonel Wu Peifu, the squadron leader of the Tiger Commando, and gave him the opportunity in person.
"Wu Peifu, please listen carefully to me. No matter what happens, you must protect the safety of the princess of the Bukhara Khanate, that is, the Empress Marika. You may be assassinated by British and Russian agents along the way, and even the people from the Bukhara Khanate are not trustworthy."
"Yes! Please rest assured, sir, I guarantee to complete the task!" Wu Peifu replied firmly, full of confidence.
"Okay! This matter is done, I will be promoted to colonel for you!" Zhang Xiaoliu made a promise and told Wu Peifu in advance what the reward was.
"Yes! Complete the task resolutely!" Wu Peifu was overjoyed, gave a military salute, then said goodbye, took his Tiger Commando 2 Squadron and took the train to the border.
Five days later, Wu Peifu and his men met with the Chinese Empire's wedding team in Yili, and went to Kunduz on the border to wait for Marika's arrival.
At the same time, the Bukhara Khanate's marriage sending team also escorted Princess Marika to the border.
However, at this moment, on an Imperial Chinese airship under air surveillance, observers found a large number of suspected personnel near Princess Marika's convoy in the telescope. They were not wearing military uniforms, but were well-trained, well-founded in advance and retreat, all with excellent rifles, and even heavy machine guns. They were definitely not ordinary bandits.
The airship quickly warned and fired a striking red signal flare.
"Not good, there is a situation!"
As the most elite special forces member of the Chinese Empire and the squadron leader of the Tiger Commando, Wu Peifu responded very quickly in this situation and responded in just 0.1 seconds.
"Fight preparation! Quickly move closer to the bride-sending team! The left wing of the first team, the right wing of the second team, and the third team followed me and started to act!"
The order was issued, and the well-trained Tiger Commando officers and soldiers quickly started the chariot and rushed towards Princess Marika as quickly as possible.
At the same time, the Mary Trucks also received a warning from the Chinese Empire airship.
Official Bukhara Khan, who was responsible for escorting Princess Marika, was also a confidant of the old king. The old king was not confused. He knew that the trip was dangerous, so he sent his confidant to escort his daughter to get married.
"Protect the princess!"
"Defense on the spot!"
The order was issued, and the five hundred soldiers of the Bukhara Khanate guards quickly squatted on the ground, looking for bunker defense nearby, pointing their guns around.
Princess Marika was also protected by her entourage and hid behind the vehicle.
"Go and occupy the nearby highlands now!"
The officer who protected the princess issued an order, and immediately several teams of soldiers ran towards the surrounding small highlands. As a result, just as they reached the hillside, the small highlands had been occupied by mysterious enemies. The other party had no choice but to fire immediately.
