1517. The emperor made no mistake

Moreover, the Asian Island Alliance was not willing to watch Qi control the sea power, so this war at sea broke out.

A total of three major battles broke out, the first defeat of the Qi State, the second and third victories, but even if it was victorious, it was only the sea that blocked the other side and occupied several islands and strongholds of the other side.

If you want to expand the Warring States more deeply, Qi has no ability to do so, because the unification of Qi is the key, and Qi does gain great benefits in the maritime competition.

Again, the state of Qi is reluctant to launch a naval war, which is a very money-burning war, a large warship, that is, millions of taels of silver.

In these three wars, more than 30 large warships were lost, 1,000 medium warships, and small warships were not counted.

If it weren't for the deep accumulation of Qi's original capital, coupled with the control of the Central Plains, I am afraid that these three wars could bring Qi back to before liberation.

Although the Qi State suffered such losses, the losses of the other party were even more severe, completely destroying the opponent's ocean fleet.

Originally, the Qi State wanted to send an army to land and control the entire southern region, but the southern region was a desolate place, and the only thing that the Qi State could control was the islands, and entering the mainland was to fight with the Southern Barbarians.

This is also the end of the war in disguise, so far the Qi State controls the maritime power, as for the United Kingdom of Britain and the Habsburgs, they simply cannot collide with the Qi State at sea.

Of course, huge post-war gains were obtained, and this loss was also huge, according to estimates, these three wars lost three years of financial revenue of the Qi State.

This made Qi have to shelve the war plan for the Central Plains, and in the court, the ministers held many meetings, and many people thought that this war should not be launched.

Because of the launch of this naval battle, the plan to unify the Central Plains was shelved, giving Chu and Qin time to recuperate, and Qi could not be at war in the next two years, which was equivalent to giving the other party three years of recuperation, and Qi could only be in a passive defensive state.

Of course, three years later, the Qi State is even more powerful than before, and in three years, the Qi State controls the world's maritime trade, which brings huge profits.

At this time, at the Qi State Court Meeting, ministers, you look at you, I look at me, Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and said, "Do you have a very good opinion about me fighting this naval battle?" ”

In fact, if Qi Xiaobai knew that helping the holy Roman Empire would trigger such a large-scale naval battle, Qi Xiaobai would hesitate and probably not get involved, because among his goals, maritime hegemony would be a matter of the future.

However, the situation in this world is indeed a good situation to control the hegemony of the sea, if the civil war of the Holy Roman Empire is over, and the Hundred Years War between the United Empire of Britain and the French Empire is over, then it will be very difficult for the Qi State to compete for the hegemony of the sea.

After all, those Asian island alliances also have a heart for the sea, but because they are loose and in internal competition, so although their navy has dominated the world for ten years, they have not controlled world trade.

However, because Qi Xiaobai attacked the Habsburg Dynasty and had the ambition to control world trade, coupled with the agitation of the Britons and Habsburgs, they unprecedentedly united and launched this naval war with the Great Qi Empire.

In the eyes of the Habsburgs and the Britons, the Asian island alliance had won and might control world trade, but it would be short-lived, because they would not be united forever, after all, it was an alliance, not a country, and there was strong internal competition, and as long as there were lobbying and agitation, it was easy to loosen up.

But their idea failed, but the Qi State won, and the Qi State won, that is, the war controlled the world trade, although they also knew that the Qi State also had enemies internally, but people were pressing the enemy to fight, on the other hand, their enemies were evenly matched with them, and they couldn't share a little strength.

Some people have opinions, but who dares to say no to Qi Xiaobai's decision-making? What's more, the war has been won, and the Qi State has gained maritime supremacy, and there will definitely be a lot of money in the future.

At this time, Tian Ji stood up, looked at Qi Xiaobai and said: "Your Majesty, although we will get a lot of funds in the future, but within three years, we can't go to war, the battle of the Three Jin Dynasty encountered by the Qin State will inevitably recover, and the Chu State will also be wary of our Qi State!" ”

"I'm afraid that in three years, if my Qi country wants to start a war, it will be extremely difficult, and the situation in the world is likely to become a situation where the three kingdoms are in power!"

Qi Xiaobai looked at Tian Ji, Qi Xiaobai was not worried about this problem, in fact, he had done enough, even if he didn't do anything now, he would go down in history, after all, he led the Qi State to the peak, and he also changed the situation in Kyushu, although he did not complete the unification, but he gave the Qi State a good basic plate to unify the world.

But Qi Xiaobai's personality has changed to this day, so he won't go on like this? How could he be willing?

At this time, he became an emperor, and his mentality was like that of an emperor, expanding his territory and going down in history, which was his purpose.

He wants to become the Qin Shi Huang of this world and rule the world.

Qi Xiaobai looked at Tian Ji and said: "But we have obtained the hegemony of the sea, and after we unify the world, we will have no enemies, and we will definitely be comfortable!" ”

"The so-called comfort will decline, but after we have achieved maritime supremacy, it means that we still have many enemies to deal with!"

"And I gave them a good base!"

"Of course, the purpose of my life is to dominate the world, and as for overseas enemies, it will be left to future generations!" Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and said.

"What you said is right, I did this and gave Qin Chuke a situation to develop, but I suppressed overseas!"

"You must know that our enemy is not only Qin Chu, Qin Chu's war with us is just a struggle between his own brothers, because they are all from Kyushu!"

"Our real enemies are those aliens, enemies on the sea, and steppe people in the north!"

"Prairie people, we have finished the blow, but we have not finished the enemy of the ocean, what if they suddenly give us a knife from the back when we are fighting Qin Chu?" Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and said.

"The war with Qin Chu is the most important war to unify the world, any accident must be thought of, and any accident must be eliminated!"

"I'm doing this to put an end to these accidents!" Qi Xiaobai looked at everyone and said.

In the critical period of the Qi State, the emperor was not wrong.
