Chapter Twenty-Eight: Where is the end of the wind and the end of the Yuan Spring?
The slightest inadvertent change can trigger a huge follow-up situation, just as if you came into the world; Ten years ago, he came to this world empty-handed, and ten years later, Liuqiu has basically realized the first industrial revolution; Another metaphor is the many reactions caused by this, and the Shunhe Emperor Jin Zheng temporarily "sued for peace" with Annam in the name of peace with Annan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The war launched by Annan began in November of the 23rd year of Qianping, and in March of the first year of Shunhe, the war stalled in Nanning and began "peace" peace talks; Among the ten women in the primary election, including the female history "Jia Yuanchun" who was in charge of the etiquette of Empress Wei in the harem, it was rumored that Emperor Shunhe would select one of these ten women to be crowned as a princess and marry to the king of Annam; But this list disappeared somehow, but it was Concubine Annan who recognized Sui You, the daughter of Suiyi, a member of the Taifu Temple, as her goddaughter, and then Emperor Shunhe named her the county lord and married to the Zheng clan of Annan instead of the lord of the country. This is another event that does not exist in the novel of the Red Mansion, Fu Ning remembered that what was written in the novel was, Concubine Annan recognized that she didn't know whether it was Yingchun or Tanchun as her goddaughter to send out what Ruxiang Country and relatives; So what is happening now is "different from the original novel" fact has shown that "the wings of the butterfly are flapping", and he has once again disrupted the process of the "Story of the Red Chamber", so can he be more "active", completely disrupt the "process of the Red Chamber", and finally lead out the monks and the monks.
Fu Ning didn't believe that the monk didn't know about his existence; I have done so many things, and I have had a huge impact on the British court, I don't believe that the monk can still "sink under the water and not come out"?!
The monk who "kidnapped Lin Daiyu failed" did not come to Liuyu to find himself, and he asked the Intelligence Department to publicly release the word "looking for that monk" did not lead them out, so he might as well make another big test and ask the British Dynasty "Heqin" for Jia Yuanchun in the name of the "East China Sea State".
Yang Zhen had completed the signing of the "Gongyi Agreement" with the imperial court, and was about to rush to Yangzhou to supervise the follow-up of the "Gongyi Agreement", when he suddenly received Fu Ning's "peace order" and felt a little inexplicable, and he didn't understand why Fu Ning named a "female history" of the imperial court, and also gave a very heavy "dowry", and the "dowry gift" of 3,000 single-shot Houzhu guns was definitely heavy enough; Yang Zhen didn't understand Fu Ning's order, but he didn't understand it and had to carry it out.
Emperor Shunhe didn't understand why "Fu Ning, King of the East China Sea" gave such a heavy gift to kiss a small female history, and he didn't care about the "name" of this female history at all; You know, marrying a "princess" to a vassal state is a harmony, and marrying a "female history" to a vassal state is a great insult to the vassal state, and no one has ever done this in history; Even if a woman from a lower background marries and relatives, she must first add a title, but Fu Ning's order to Yang Zhen is "I don't care about the name, but it must be Jia Yuanchun himself, and no one can replace it!! ”。
Emperor Shunhe couldn't figure it out, and Yang Zhen couldn't figure it out either, but it didn't prevent Emperor Shunhe from wanting to bargain; So Emperor Shunhe directly "put aside the interview between the Ministry of Rites and Yang Zhen", and put forward 5,000 Houzhu guns before agreeing to the request of peace, but Yang Zhen resolutely did not let go. In fact, the bottom line in Fu Ning's order to Yang Zhen was "to be able to equip a division with 8,000 guns", but Yang Zhen resolutely wanted to save these guns, and if he couldn't save them, he would drag them out for three or five months, to see if he was in a hurry with Emperor Shunhe!
The beacon fire in northern Xinjiang is still there, so Emperor Shunhe didn't have so much time to procrastinate, so the second "interview" with Yang Zhen settled the matter, agreed to Fu Ning's request for peace, but increased the allocation of 300,000 rounds of ammunition to 500,000 rounds, plus 10,000 single-shot Houjiao guns and 1,000 rounds of ammunition in the "Gongyi Agreement", and the imperial court will have 13,000 Houjia guns and 1.5 million rounds of ammunition at that time; But what Emperor Shunhe didn't know was that Liuqiu's Houzhu gun was a "burning stick" without bullets, and the British Dynasty couldn't make suitable bullets at all.
After receiving Yang Zhen's reply, Fu Ning was not happy, but asked Yang Zhen to cut through the mess quickly and immediately bring the "female history" Jia Yuanchun to the chicken coop. Fu Ning had already ordered the navy to send two ironclad main ships from the sea of Xiaguan on Yingzhou Island to Tanggu Port in Bohai Bay to pick up the people and immediately send them to the chicken coop. Fu Ning sat and waited to see the successor, just to see if the monk would appear and how he would respond.
Fu Ning is "shameless", but Yang Zhen still wants to "save some face" for the East China Sea, and the imperial court also wants to "save some face"; Therefore, Emperor Shunhe still named Jia Yuanchun as the "Lord of the East China Sea" and married the vassal state "Fu Ning", which insulted the East China Sea and grew the face of the "Great British Dynasty". Because according to historical examples, except for Wang Zhaojun, who "went out of the palace and kissed" as a "palace maid", other women who were close to each other generally had the title of "princess"; Now Emperor Shunhe will marry the "Sui Yu, the lord of Annan" to the Zheng family of Annan, and the "Jia Yuanchun, the lord of Donghai County" will marry Fu Ning, the lord of Donghai State, which shows that Emperor Shunhe is stingy and forbearing, but it has increased the face of the "Great British Dynasty", and has improved the morale of the soldiers and civilians when the northern Xinjiang is in flames and the military and civilians are panicking, and politically it has brought "plus points".
Fu Ning didn't care about the problem of losing face, only Fu Ning and a few people in the Intelligence Department knew about the peace affair on the Liuqiu Island, which didn't affect morale; The high-level leaders of the "East China Sea Country" all know that Fu Ning never cares about any face-saving issues, and when Liuqiu Island first gained a foothold, everyone persuaded Fu Ning to claim the title of king of the country, but was rejected by Fu Ning for several years, so everyone knows that Fu Ning is practical and likes to be affordable, so he does not support or oppose Fu Ning's harmony.
The only subordinate who paid attention to Fu Ning's family affairs was Wang Su, the director of the Intelligence Department, Wang Su thought that Fu Ning, as the king of the East China Sea, should marry a noble woman and give birth to a son-in-law early, but he was dissatisfied with the insult of marrying a "county lord" in the imperial court, so he was the only one who whispered in Fu Ning's ear, and he didn't know whether his expressed opinion was for or against, anyway, Fu Ning only heard the nagging and didn't understand the content. When Fu Ning told Wang Su that the Yuan Qi he had always looked down on was actually the daughter of Jia Daishan, the Duke of Rongguo of the British Dynasty, Wang Su walked away.
The army is always a hawk, and the war in Zhangzhou has only been a few months past and the war report has been uploaded, and the war plan is for the Goryeo Peninsula and the British Dynasty, but all of them were vetoed by Fu Ning; Not only Fu Ning opposed the continued expansion, but also the Secretary for Administration, the Department of Commerce, and the General Staff Department all opposed the continued expansion, because the resettlement of new immigrants from Liuqiu Island was arduous, and the steps of purchasing Hermes-Epitek from Goryeo to relocate and develop to Yingzhou had just begun, and the situation in Liuqiu was extremely flawed and hidden.
First of all, the problem of agriculture, industrialization attracted too many people, before the Zhangzhou action, on the island of Liuqiu, except for a small number of vegetable farmers, there was almost no agricultural population, Liuqiu was originally a small population, the result of all going to work was the decline of grain agriculture, the lack of food, although there were grain purchased from the city, Annam and other places, but only a drop in the bucket; Anyone who eats salted fish porridge for two years in a row will also get hairy, but fortunately, the expansion and surge of the fishing team's production capacity, the change of eating habits, and the high endurance of the Han people's traditions, so the situation in Liuqiu has not been a problem; But the situation could not always be like this, so after the Zhangzhou operation, Fu Ning agreed to resettle a large number of new immigrants to the agricultural industry. Sugarcane and rice cultivation, as well as the support and development of the fruit industry, are the main resettlement directions. The other is the industrial planning of the four islands of Yingzhou, Fu Ning did not agree to use the new immigrants in Yingzhou for the development of silver mines, but all of them were placed in agriculture, and at the same time popularized and rewarded education, one is to increase food production, and the other is to improve the knowledge level of the people, and make a good talent reserve in advance.
Commerce has expanded very large, chicken coop Arab merchants, European merchants have been common, but because of the rapid development of industry, ships are consumed in fishing, transportation, military and other fields, although the volume of trade is very large, but most of the merchants from other countries transport grain, silver and industrial resources and then transport away industrial products, Liuqiu's own outward expansion of trade transportation capacity is not strong, the farthest direct trade direction is only to reach the southwest of Malacca and the north of the Bohai country. This is a flaw of Ryuqiu, that is to say, although Ryuqiu's industrial capacity is strong, it has not been able to "go out!" There is no ability to transport goods to the ocean.
The rapid expansion of industry also led to a shortage of coal, and the steel yards used to have more coal and less iron ore, and the coke had to wait for the iron ore from Luzon to be transported; Later, the transportation capacity of iron ore increased, but the growth of coal gradually decreased. With the expansion of mining, mining disasters began to increase, water permeability, landslides, gas explosions and other mining disasters began to increase, although with the opening of the railway, new coal in Changhua and other places in the south can fill part of the demand gap, but on the whole, it is still necessary to find coal from the outside world; The quality of coal imported from Annam is very good, but the quantity is too small, there is a shortage of coal in Liuqiu and Yingzhou, and no coal mines have been found in Luzon, which brings hidden dangers to the development of industrialization; Therefore, this year we will start to think about the demand for coal. This must be included in the strategic planning of the General Staff Division.
The Military Affairs Department and the General Staff Department have always had a battle plan for the British Dynasty, but any battle plan was vetoed by Fu Ning; Fu Ning believed that there would be no possibility of an occupation of the British Dynasty in the next 10 years, but only defensive operations or local assault operations. Because Fu Ning did not want to cause a large number of Han people on the ground of the British Dynasty.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, after the Yellow Turban, the Three Kingdoms, the Wei and Jin dynasties, the number of Han people dropped from more than 60 million at the peak to millions during the Wuhu Rebellion. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the population dropped from nearly 60 million in its heyday to less than 10 million in the early Tang Dynasty. The Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Three Kingdoms Rebellion, the Wuhu Rebellion, the Rebellion at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the Anshi Rebellion, the Song and Yuan Wars, as well as the Ming and Qing Wars, the Heavenly Kingdom Movement, and the War of Resistance against Japan in the original world, that one did not swallow tens of millions of people, or even hundreds of millions of people, so Fu Ning didn't dare to imagine what it would bring if the war against the British Dynasty was triggered in advance, maybe tens of millions of people, or hundreds of millions of Han people, so Fu Ning was resolutely unwilling to go to war in advance; If there were no adequate preparations, if there were no adequate precautions, Fu Ning would resolutely not start a war.
If you concentrate all your strength, force the landing at Tanggu Port in Bohai Bay, and go down to Beijing in a battle, it is estimated that Emperor Shunhe will not even have a chance to escape, and the British Dynasty will also be destroyed and replaced, but - then what? At that time, there will inevitably be boundless wars and robberies of foreign races, and when the time comes, the Han people will disappear in tens of millions, and who will benefit at that time? And who is crying? ……
Fu Ning hoped that after the completion of the second industrial revolution, on the basis of having a population of 20 or 30 million and sufficient talent reserves, he would be able to occupy the British Dynasty in an instant with a modern army, and then stabilize the people's livelihood and guard against the surrounding aliens, so as to minimize the number of Han people's losses, and only need to kill some corrupt officials at that time.
Any large-scale civil strife or change of dynasty will swallow up the boundless population, and the same is true of the Industrial Revolution, where the "discovery of the New World" devoured the indigenous people of the Americas and hundreds of millions of Africans. The first industrial revolution divided the world, and the second industrial revolution led to two world wars and one of the largest global economic crises, which also swallowed up hundreds of millions of people; As for the third industrial revolution, it is not over yet, and it is estimated that when it ends, mankind should also perish. Therefore, Fu Ning never wanted to easily start a war of occupation against the British Dynasty.
The first industrial revolution in Ryugu had already devoured more than 10 million natives in Luzon and Wa, and this process of devouring continued, and it is estimated that the natives of Goryeo and Balhae were not far from extinction; As for the second industrial revolution that Fu Ning intends to launch after him, it is estimated that it will swallow up the alien races of the whole of Asia; Therefore, Fu Ning only hoped that Hermes-Epitek would suffer less losses during the two industrial revolutions. As for the third industrial revolution, it is estimated that there will be no alien people in this world of red mansions by then! It's just that Fu Ning doesn't know if he can survive to that day.
