Even years later, Corning was still lamenting that he had not been able to catch up with the Battle of Salhu. He originally had the opportunity to completely change the history of the Ming Dynasty, but now, he could only wait for the next better opportunity.

Now he is in the quagmire of war all over the world, at this time he can bring changes to the development of the Ming Dynasty, only the insignificant economic construction, I hope that the Emperor of the Apocalypse, who has trusted him for many years, can take advantage of this, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible to a new level, but also in the face of great challenges more than ten years later, can be more relaxed to deal with.

On the battlefields of Central and South Asia, the Soviet army was winning one victory after another, the traffic police of the Bukhara Khanate and the Khiva Khanate were crumbling under their offensive, and the large and small Yuzi in the Kazakh steppe were also declared surrendered under their fierce attack.

However, the Oirat Mongols seem to have been prepared for a long time, and they borrowed a lot of soldiers and horses from Heshute and Lurako Mongols. After the tentative attack, he dismissed the idea of launching a further attack, and the next thing he had to do was to further digest the territory he had already occupied.

At this time, the Central Asian theater of operations is extremely dangerous for them, the Safavid Dynasty of Iran is still eyeing the left, and the right is facing the once powerful Mongolian tribes, the north is the fierce Tsarist Russian polar bear, and the two river basins separated from them by a Persian plateau are the Ottoman Empire's iron cavalry, in the perennial battle with the Safavid Dynasty, you know that you have not yet begun to go downhill Ottoman iron cavalry, still has immeasurable combat effectiveness!

Compared with the Safavid Dynasty and the Mongols, who were in the midst of cold weapons, Suning was more worried about the Ottoman Empire and Tsarist Russia, which could make contact with Europe. To this end, he was prepared to revise his foreign policy strategy to further tie relations with the Protestant countries.

The Kingdom of Sweden, which also bordered Tsarist Russia, became Suning's best choice, and decades later, the Kingdom of Sweden fought a tragic Great Northern War with the expanding Tsarist Russia, although their contradictions with Russia had not yet reached the brink of outbreak at this time, of course, Corning did not need to let the two countries go to war directly, he only needed to have a force to contain the attention of the Russians in the Nordic region.

The Germans were much more honest from then on, and took the initiative to trade with the bordering countries, and with Corning's obstruction, their westward expansion was curbed, because you let your army enter Siberia before they did.

Trade with the Ming Dynasty also flourished as Kangning acquired another vast pasture. All kinds of woolen textiles frantically poured into the Ming Dynasty market, and ceramics and tea became important targets for the sale of ships under Kangning's ships.

At the same time, Suning also began to export agricultural products to the Ming Dynasty, including high-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes, which were constantly moving from Panama and Chile occupied by Kangning to the Ming Dynasty on the other side of the Pacific. In this process, you do not use the light gate in your own hands, but encourage private business capital to make profits from it, so as to promote a healthier business model.

Therefore, all kinds of lasers that have erupted in recent years have been effectively controlled, and there has been no serious loss caused by this, and Xu Hongru, who was originally going to rebel in 1622, finally gave up his idea.

After getting the news just now, he sighed with great emotion, you know, one of his original tasks was to monitor this possible rebel traverser, and now, he is within the scope of the Ming Dynasty, popularizing his advanced planting technology in order to improve the grain production of the Ming Dynasty, because he noticed that since the start of trade in the Pacific Rim Empire, the Ming Dynasty has fallen into a serious trade deficit in various fields, which will be a heavy blow to the economy of the Ming Dynasty.

The light industrial products of the Ming Dynasty, including raw silk and ceramics, have slowly appeared unsalable, but wool textiles and cotton textiles are popular in China, pushing the price of silk to an incredible level.

For this reason, the old Taoist priest Qin, who was also a traverser, felt a huge threat, and he continued to use his inherent power, not to mention the weather, the little emperor changed his national policy, not to blindly believe in the profits of sea trade, but also to develop his own strength.

The little emperor was influenced by Corning for many years, and it was very easy for him to accept such an idea, so he immediately ordered the discussion of changing the national policy, and I thought that it was necessary to create more goods in technology, and to seek greater profits overseas, so as to make the national treasury more abundant, so as to cope with the continuous wars in the northeast.

But this point of view was immediately opposed by the Donglin Party, who had previously supported him because the gentry and landlords in the southeast, most of whom were engaged in the silk weaving industry, and the decision of the little emperor to promote overseas trade was destined to be a fist product of silk products, which could be marketed to most parts of the world in exchange for sufficient profits.

However, if it is replaced with other commodities, it will become a key export project. Then the silk weaving bosses behind them will be destined to embark on the road to bankruptcy, and they will not easily agree to such things that affect their future upgrades.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse fell into a state of anxiety, and he was depressed and often wandered around the harem, but unexpectedly encountered a major event.

In 1625, when the French Prime Minister Richelieu persuaded Britain and the Netherlands to support Denmark in sending troops to attack the Holy Roman Empire, a huge explosion occurred in the capital of the Ming Dynasty. The prince of the Emperor of the Apocalypse also died because of fright.

This incident dealt a huge blow to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and his original high fighting spirit of rejuvenating the army and strengthening the country was instantly reduced by more than half.

After Kang Ning learned about this, he also sighed deeply, he originally had the opportunity to stop this matter and bring the little prince with him, but because he fought for many years, he finally missed this opportunity, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse, who did not leave an heir, could only pass the throne to Zhu Youzhen, who was ambitious and talented, after his untimely death.

And what can Zhu Youzhen bring to the Ming Dynasty? He didn't know how to guide industry and commerce, he was not like his brother, he was a business practitioner, he didn't understand how industrial products were exchanged for profits, and how they occupied a pivotal and even fundamental position in maritime trade.
