Listening to Zhu Youxiao's straightforward words, Sanchez was very shocked, although he had seen the Ming Navy, but he had not seen the combat experience of the Ming Navy, today when he heard Zhu Youxiao's tough tone, he faintly felt that the combat power of the Ming Navy should be very strong.

I know the affairs of my own country, it is a matter of time before Portugal and Spain break up, and it is an indisputable fact that Spain has been declining, and Portugal has long lost its former glory. In Europe, the rise of England on the seas was already emerging, and the French army was so strong that it didn't matter anyone's color, even the Italians, who had no homeland, began to fight alongside the Prussians.

Spain's army is known for its Spanish team, but judging from the rumors that the Ming Dynasty easily captured Luzon, it should be vulnerable in front of the Ming army, if the Spanish army loses the magic weapon of the Spanish phalanx, then what ability does Spain have to maintain its hegemony? The rise of the Ming Dynasty has long been seen by itself, but the speed of its rise is very rare, and in just a few years, it has reached the development level of the West in the past hundred years.

Sánchez told Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty, I will submit your proposal to His Majesty as soon as possible, and the matter of Europe must be decided by His Majesty." As for the affairs in Asia, we can contact Spain in the future, and we can also negotiate with the Dutch East India Company on the issue of the Netherlands, and I dare not guarantee whether we can negotiate it specifically, but I am very willing to cooperate with His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, please wait patiently for the good news. ”

Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "Mr. Sanchez, I have one more piece of advice, I hope you go back and talk to the king of your country, it is best to sell your country in mainland Europe, and then make a deal with the king of Spain to move your kingdom to South America, where there is fertile land and vast space for development, why do you have to compete with them for living space in that palm-sized place in Europe?" If there is anything else that needs to be explained and consulted, please send someone to contact us, and we will work together to achieve a win-win situation. ”

Listening to Zhu Youxiao's astonishing suggestion, Sanchez was almost a little stunned, what a grand plan this is, is it easy to move the whole country? But after thinking about it carefully, what His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty said really has a certain amount of truth!

Sanchez bowed deeply to Zhu Youxiao and said: "Thank you for your reminder, I will definitely ask the king to consider your suggestion, and if you need the help of Daming, please ask Your Majesty to help." ”

Sanchez left, with a great deal of surprise. And Sun Chengzong asked Zhu Youxiao: "Why does Your Majesty suggest that the Kingdom of Portugal should better migrate to South America?" Haven't we already established a large territory there? Will they compete with us fiercely when they go? Why would Portugal be advised, and not others? ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "Teacher! My suggestion does have a certain purpose, I have seen the relationship between European countries brought by Niu Venus, and I also have a general understanding of their regional situation. At present, Portugal has a population of more than one million, and there are definitely no more than one million people who can follow the king to South America, even if you add the Portuguese who have migrated to South America, at most it is as large as the current population. Spain now has a population of more than 8 million, and if Spain were forced to move to South America, it would be our fierce rivals, and they are now colonizing Mexico, and our people are establishing a series of territories along the west coast in order to block the expansion of these colonists into Asia. When Portugal gains a foothold in South America, it can become our ally to block Spain's expansion into South America, their population base is too small to develop too strong, so that these European colonizers can be blocked in Europe and North America, and let them fight there. In the eastern part of Africa, we are also building some territories, which are similar to those in the Americas, where the indigenous peoples have a very low level of development and need our support to resist the invasion of the European colonizers, and once this situation is formed, we can sit back and relax in Asia. ”

Sun Chengzong thought for a moment and asked, "Then why do we want to unite Spain and the Netherlands?" Isn't the Portuguese alone strong enough? ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "This is indeed the case, it is indeed not enough to unite Spain and the Netherlands. Now the population of the whole of Europe is about the same as ours, but all of them will definitely be stronger than our power in the future, and their technology is much stronger than that of Asia, and only we have the strength to confront them in Asia. The Mughal Empire has lost its ability to develop, and now it is only enough to protect itself, unable to expand, and will also be one of the dumping grounds for our goods in the future. The Ottoman Empire has also expanded to the limit, and there may be constant conflicts with Russia in the future, and we can also profit from this, so that they will continue to consume national strength. ”

Sun Chengzong asked again: "We have designed such a big plan, but how will we manage such a large territory in the future?" ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "There is no need to worry, as long as the European forces cannot enter our sphere of influence, we will have enough time for development, don't you see the steam engine?" If we put a steam engine in a larger space, isn't it a king-size pot camel engine? I erected two railroad tracks, relying on the steam engine to make a pot camel machine, we call it the locomotive, so that the locomotive can carry a dozen carriages on it, its speed will be very fast in the future, it can run nearly a thousand miles in a day, from Guangzhou to Beijing in only three to five days. The second is how to manage the country, we can set up overseas territories, which are semi-independent countries, we will build more warships, and a strong fleet will destroy all dangerous countries in advance, and nip all dangerous possibilities in the bud, just as we are now designing against England and France. ”

Sun Chengzong was still a little puzzled, and then asked: "Then Your Majesty, why did we design to deal with the English?" The French? Are they very powerful? ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled bitterly in his heart, England and France are indeed very powerful, and the suffering of the Chinese nation began with the invasion of England, so Zhu Youxiao said: "England is indeed very powerful, although its current population is less than five million, but they are very aggressive, and they will soon make a move on the Netherlands, when they defeat the Dutch, they will become the overlord of the sea, if we can't blockade them in the British Isles, they may become the new world hegemon, As you can see now, they have opened the doors of trade in the Mughal Empire, set up colonies in North America, set up colonies on the west coast of Africa, they moved decades before us, and we are now catching up with them by virtue of the advantage of population. The population of France is only one-fifth of ours, but it is already a big country in Europe, and they are also like England, they are robbing colonies everywhere in the world, so as to accumulate wealth, judging from the materials brought by Niu Venus, their scientific and technological level is more developed than ours, for example, the textbooks used in the Daming People's University we established have to use their knowledge, which are basic knowledge that we do not have. ”

Sun Chengzong still knows these things, whether it is the skills of mathematical calculation methods, or the proposal of new mathematical concepts, the Ming Dynasty has very little research on these, the Ming Dynasty does not have the concept of mathematics, and pays attention to arithmetic, which is the difference in concepts. Maybe many people don't understand why Western countries call it mathematics, while we have always called it arithmetic, in fact, it is the difference in the concept of this point that has caused a huge difference in later generations. Mathematics is the study of numbers, arithmetic is the study of calculation methods, one is pioneering research, the other is practice makes perfect, pioneering research, thinking is divergent, will continue to raise new problems, research new problems, calculation methods can only make continuous mastery of new computing skills, it is difficult to make breakthroughs. This is also the reason why in later generations our primary school textbooks were called arithmetic, and above junior high school was called mathematics. However, arithmetic in primary school has constrained our thinking habits, and many students' understanding of mathematics is much worse, in fact, it should be called mathematics from the beginning, so that children know from an early age that they should study the knowledge of numbers and how to study problems about numbers.
