It turns out that the city of Hangzhou is also snowing, and the snow in the Xiaoice River period is exceptionally large, and the snowflakes sprinkled will be poured white regardless of the deep mansion compound of the prince and the general or the small house of ordinary people.

During the Southern Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty was drunk by the beautiful scenery of Hangzhou Bay, abandoned the Beijing division of the tiger and the dragon pan, and moved the capital here.

It's just that this trip is by no means a relaxing and pleasant trip, but the facial expressions of the ministers are quite heavy.

Mao Jue did not like to live in the palace, but preferred the cement building he brought out from the Dongjiang River, and accepted the court officials to stay, and the location of the meeting also obeyed the emperor's habits, and was located in the headquarters of the Hangzhou East India Company, in the glass dome conference hall where the shareholders met.

I have to mention that Mao Jue, the emperor, is extravagant enough to hold national racing competitions, the imperial squares built in various places, and the railway veins that extend in all directions, which cost tens of thousands, but for his subordinates, he is open and closed to ask for diligence and thrift, the original Ming-style wide-sleeved official robe was changed at this time, and was replaced by a split suit similar to the Zhongshan suit in later generations, but the color was purple and crimson, and then the complement with special characteristics of the civil and military generals was also retained, and it was still embroidered on the chest uprightly.

It is said that it is thrifty, in fact, it is necessary to embroider the two sides just aligned, and the patch without the gap, the workmanship is more expensive than the ordinary robe, but when you wear this set, the rotten and cumbersome atmosphere has been removed, and it is replaced by a shrewd and capable atmosphere, so many people secretly say that Mao Jue's move is to imitate the Hufu riding and shooting move of King Zhao Wuling, and no one objected.

Next to Mao Jue, the most central lord, Adriana, who returned to work, was wearing a set of neat official robes of the secretary of the Sanpin Empire, but her official robe was changed from pants to a short skirt, and then she wore white short velvet pants underneath and a pair of intellectual black-framed glasses.

It is said that the rise and fall of the dynasty can be seen from the woman's skirt, as strong as the Tang Dynasty, and the social atmosphere is also extraordinarily open, comparable to the hotness of the later generations of low-cut clothing has become the trend of the court and high society, but in the Southern Song Dynasty, where the country was lost, the wind of science has risen greatly, starvation is a small matter, and a loss of festival is a big thing! The men who can't defeat the foreign enemy outside can only sprinkle their anger on the women of their own family, rewrap the women tightly, and lock them up firmly at home.

If it was a few decades ago, Adriana would have caused an uproar, but now that the Ming Dynasty has revived and opened up, it is no longer strange.

And compared with those literati and officials in the Chongzhen Dynasty, they don't do their jobs, staring at the big and small things of the sesame seeds, but the major military affairs are pretending to be deaf and dumb one by one, and the first priority of the officialdom of the Haiguo Kaihong Dynasty is to do the right thing, and the ministers don't have the energy to care about what others wear, and all their energy is on the hands of the imperial secretary Adriana.

Something really wrong!

"Now that we have obtained accurate information, the Dutch Hongmao Domain has officially intervened in the unification war of my Ming Dynasty!"

It's really the pride of the Celestial Empire! Ignoring her chestnut and reddish hair, Adriana called the red-haired fan contemptuously, and at the same time pointed at the Ming Dynasty behind Mao Jue with a small whip in a brisk tone.

"On October 15, the Dutch fleet attacked our Fuzhou City Self-Defense Force in Lianjiang County, and took the remnants of the Tang thief Zhu Yujian and the traitor He Tengjiao back to Guangdong, on October 18, the reconnaissance fleet found that the Dutch left eleven warships to assist the Tang thieves in defending Guangdong Bay, and the inner line came to report, eighteen, twenty-eighth, and the third of the next month, three batches of Dutch cargo ships docked in Liwan, Guangzhou, and sent a large amount of firearms to the Tang thieves, and the Dutch also paid money to help the Tang thieves recruit the Tuliao army, and sent officers to help the Tang thieves train the army!"

"In addition, Qian Xi, the governor of Jiangxi, expelled the envoys sent by our dynasty to surrender, and gathered a large army to the north, which seems to have a tendency to threaten my Chaohuguang!"

"There is news in the southeast, the Dutch and the Donghu people also secretly collude, and Li Dingguo, the king of the Jin Dynasty of the Great Western Kingdom, also sent news to the Ming Dynasty, there was a Hongmaoyi from Yunnan into Sichuan to meet Zhang Xianzhong, and Zhang Xianzhong was beheaded! A few months earlier, a ship had rounded Malacca and was said to have probably sailed for the Mughal Empire. ”

At this point, Adriana turned the map to the other side, Europe, and pointed to the "Japan" in Europe, the British Islands.

"Half a year ago, our ally the British already received news that the French barbarians and the Dutch were jointly building warships in Marseille, I am afraid that there was already a plan at that time, and our allies are probably also in danger!"

Good guys, completely a mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, the Dutch are worthy of being Shanghai merchant coachmen, in the Ming Dynasty, the allies of the Ming Dynasty, it is a multi-pronged approach, and it is necessary to set off a storm in the entire southeast, watching Adriana finish speaking, the important ministers of the DPRK and the central government, who were already full of words, suddenly began to discuss, especially Sun Chuanting, who had the most stinky and hard-tempered temper, was already the first to stand up in anger.

"Your Majesty, the Dutch red-haired feudal lord, the small country of Puer, dares to offend the divine power of our Celestial Empire, and He Tengjiao and other national thieves set up a pseudo-emperor without authorization, colluding with foreign vassals, the crime is extremely evil, please send troops to ask for it immediately!"

But before his words were finished, Hong Chengchou, a bachelor in charge of the military department, was already shaking his head with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter needs to be slowed down, and now our army is mostly gathered in the south of the Yangtze River, Huguang only has three corps of the Xuzhou Legion, there are more than three corps of the Xuzhou Legion, there is more than enough to defend the city, and the progress is insufficient, Jiangnan is still thousands of miles away from Liangguang, the army is far and difficult, the material transportation is scarce, the light army is rushing in, not to mention the labor and salary, once it is not careful, it may lead to a rout, resulting in more erosion of the war." ”

"So you say! Just watching Tang Reverse sit in the climate? ”

I really don't know where Sun Chuanting, who is in charge of the household department, got such a big temper, Hong Chengchou, who is at the top of the sentence, is also red-faced, but if you want to see the two big guys blushing and thick necks, they have to pinch up, but Song Xiance, who is in charge of the diplomacy between the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple, asked the point in one sentence.

"Everyone, don't be busy arguing first, you haven't thought about why this Dutch Yi has always been in good business with my Daming, why did he suddenly make such a big move and find trouble with my Daming."

This was really a matter of asking the court, and the thirty-odd ministers all frowned, no wonder they were so angry, just because they were unbelievable, they couldn't imagine that this Dutch red-haired head let the door clamp or what's wrong, dare to find trouble with Daming.

However, this silence did not last long, and was broken by Mao Jue himself, and with a bang, a heavy ingot of silver was thrown directly by him to the middle of the conference table.

"Just for this silver!"

"Silver?"

Now the silver of the big ingot is rare, and the Beiming Central Bank began to issue silver coins for circulation, saving the fire consumption and cost of recasting it year after year, this should be Mao Jue's private collection, but looking at the heavy silver ingots rolling in front of him, Fan Wenju, who is the first scholar of the first auxiliary university, frowned and shook his head in doubt.

"Your Majesty, the only direct trade between the Western vassal countries and the Ming Dynasty is the Eagle Gilly people, the Portuguese, and the Dutch, among which the Dutch are still the largest vassal country in trade with the Ming Dynasty, and they can get millions of taels of income by trading with the Ming Dynasty every year, the Westerners are greedy, for the sake of silver, it is too late to tie up the Ming Dynasty, how can they go against the Ming Dynasty?"

"Mr. Fan said that Westerners are greedy! What kind of business is the most profitable, no business, before my Ming war, the Dutch took advantage of the weakness of the Ming Dynasty and had no time to take care of it, occupying the East Indies and Xiaoliuqiu, forcing the locals to cultivate them, selling spices from the Spice Islands to make huge profits, and making a profit of more than 10 million taels a year, but with the re-emergence of my Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the South Seas, not only recovered the Ryukyus, but also took back the three islands of Luzon to the Ming Dynasty, but also held Malacca, controlled the entire waterway in and out of Southeast Asia, the interests of the Dutch space, In fact, it has been compressed a lot by Daming! The Dutch are the hegemon of the western sea, how can they bear it!"

Holding his chin with both hands, he looked at the silver ingot in front of him with a gloomy face, and Mao Jue's voice was also gloomy as if it was about to rainstorm, gloomy and terrible.

"Besides, before my Ming Dynasty was not unified, the Dutch were still able to steal the East Indies, and now my Ming army is going south, King Fu is looking at the wind and descending, the world is about to be unified, on the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore! How did the Dutch, who occupied the East Indies, not be upset? ”

"What's more, my Ming Dynasty is united with the British, and the British are even willing to support the marriage of my son with their royal daughter, and recognize my second son as the future king of England. The expansion of the Ming Dynasty has been feared by the forces of the princely states of Western Europe, threatening their hegemony, and seeing the signs, the Westerners have united to deal with my Ming together! ”

"The Dutch are in my southeast, messing with my pace! The French are in the extreme west, attacking our British allies, and it is expected that in Tianzhu, the French, the Dutch, the Italians, and the Holy Roman Empire will also unite and compete with my Ming! They want to force the Ming back to land, continue to monopolize the rich and rich maritime trade, and isolate the Ming from carving up this world!"

"We are now facing a war on a global scale!"

Saying this, Mao Jue's voice suddenly became excited, knocked on the table, and shouted highly: "But I will never back down!"

Mao Jue's words are simply a bit deafening, even if he has followed Mao Jue for so many years, his vision is no longer as limited as those who were corrupt back then, but the strategic vision has risen to a global height, which is the first time! Even Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting's generation were dumbfounded, but after a little dullness, one by one the ministers couldn't help but raise their heads, and a pair of eyes appeared with excited looks!

These are all outstanding people, how can they be willing to be lonely? And if you make meritorious contributions and leave your name in history, how can you leave the stage of a world of great contention!

"Your Majesty, the minister believes that the top priority is not to fight with the Tang rebels in Liangguang and Yunnan, but to repair the railway from Songjiang to Fuzhou at this end of the Yangtze River!"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the army can advance slowly, and the sailor can go south first, cut off the connection between the Dutch vassal and the Tang Dynasty, and at the same time send envoys to mediate in the six countries of Central and South China!"

This is just an eggshell-like ceiling, focusing on the global scope, and one strategy after another has been enthusiastically put forward by these important ministers! Listening to the words of the ministers, sitting on the dragon seat, Mao Jue's pupils also revealed an extraordinarily hot gaze.

It's a lot of fun to fight with the sky!!
