Chapter 166: The Clouds of War

The peacekeepers returned after being stationed in the country for more than half a year. After the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info, the Chinese Republic sent out 2,000 garrison troops, and recruited 3,000 conscripts among the Japanese countries, and began to be resident in the Japanese country.

A large number of gold, silver and copper ores began to flood the market as the fleet continued to bring back.

The already struggling currency began to become abundant, and the Han Empire and the Han Republic issued too few currencies, so the new Chinese currency became a nationally recognized currency, and the exchange ratio of the other two currencies with it began to increase. This situation laid the foundation for the unification of the Chinese currency in the future and the issuance of paper money in the future.

This kind of behavior also harms the interests of the other two countries. After all, they already know that the issuance of money can also make money. This kind of money trapping behavior of the Chinese Republic makes them very dissatisfied, especially with the increase in the currency exchange ratio, the profit of their coinage has also declined.

Not to mention the Han Republic, which originally planned to go to the legendary Wa Kingdom and loot a group of slaves to come back. But he didn't want to encounter the navy of the Chinese Republic on Tsushima Island, and he lost the battle, losing more than 30 ships, and nearly 1,000 navies.

The fact that the Chinese Republic has a navy on Tsushima also makes them feel jealous. Nowadays, the market is flooded with a large number of new Chinese coins, which have a lot of proportions, even if they are not pure gold and silver. In other words, if there is not so much gold and silver, I am afraid that it will not be minted at all. The question is, they don't have so much gold and silver, is it that the southern Jiangnan region is rich in gold and silver?

Apparently, their spies did not find out where the gold and silver were produced, but they found that some fleets were constantly transporting gold, silver, and copper ingots to the Zhoushan docks and finally to the local mint for minting.

As a result, almost everyone knows that almost all of the precious metals in the Chinese Republic come from overseas. The Republic of Dahan even guessed that this source should be the Obifang County that was just set up, the Wa Kingdom opposite!

"No wonder they are so strong, they would rather go to war with our country than allow us to get involved in the Japanese country!" In Yecheng, now the imperial capital of the Han Republic, Liu Xie slapped the deputy on the dragon chair and roared.

"Your Majesty, there are rumors in the Chinese Republic that overseas Japanese countries are like islands of gold and silver, with countless gold and silver on them. It's really unfair to be cheap in the Republic of China like this! However, compared to us, there may be a force that is more urgent......" Yang Biao made a list of admonitions, apparently unconvinced, but in fact, it was to lead out another force.

That is the Xuzhou Military Government, which is next door to the Huaxia Republic, but it has not received any soup, if you want to say that Lu Bu can really be generous to that extent, no one will believe it. Not to mention that there is definite proof, Lu Bu had a son last year, and he only had one daughter in the past, and this daughter already had a marriage contract with Yang Lang, so he didn't say anything.

Now that he has a son, with the traditional Chinese principle of patriarchy and family continuity, how can Lu Bu continue to be calm?

"Jiaozhou's side is actually not peaceful, but it has been attacking Xiangyang for a long time, so it has stopped, you might as well contact it and sell some more advanced artillery ......to them," Wang Yun proposed.

Sun Jian also studied firearms, but unfortunately due to lack of technology, he couldn't do anything at all, but he made great progress in traditional weapons, and he had developed repeaters and heavy catapults.

Especially the latter, which can directly launch huge stone projectiles or a large number of stones five miles away, even if it is a reinforced concrete wall, it is difficult to please if it is constantly smashed.

Now Jiaozhou has given up the research on firearms and has fully devoted itself to the development and research of traditional weapons.

Let's not talk about whether we will be suspected of helping them conduct research if we send high-grade artillery over, let's just say that they may not use this kind of firearm that is useless when they run out of shells......" Yang Biao did not object to the use of the Jiaozhou military government, but he was opposed to selling artillery to the other party or something.

This is a big truth, the other side has not even studied the flowering bomb, and there is no border between the two. If the Huaxia Republic deliberately blockades, resulting in Sun Jian not being able to get ammunition supplies, is it possible to melt that backward solid projectile? Or just throw these guns away?!

"We don't supply them with the production line of artillery, wouldn't it be good to provide only the production line with flowering shells? Of course, they have to pay to buy from us! Wang Yun had his thoughts.

"That's it, our artillery is already a little behind the Han Empire, and even far behind the Huaxia Republic. But for the Xuzhou Military Government and the Jiaozhou Military Government, it is already very advanced. It is also very cost-effective to sell the obsolete products to them in exchange for some profits! Huang Wei stepped forward to speak, this is the patriarch of the contemporary Jiangxia Huang clan, and he has already taken some of the Jiangxia Huang clan to the north with the imperial court to the Hebei region.

The other part stayed in Jiangxia's hometown with Huang Zu, Huang Zu was admitted to the civil service, and he was already on an errand in the Republic of China, and through him for shelter, although these clansmen did not have the ownership of the land, their lives were quite nourishing.

It is said that it is inferior to the other two countries, but in fact it is very backward, which makes the Republic of Dahan have to find other ways to strengthen its own strength. Fortunately, they are the most profound existence among all the forces, and they have enough capital to complete the exploration.

Not long ago, Zhang Yan had truly created a low-level method of practicing qi through "Five Fowl Opera", called "Ten Thousand Beasts Exercise". Strictly speaking, this is not a method of cultivating the truth, but it is a traditional method of internal strength, which only takes into account the effect of refining the body and practicing qi.

In the end, after the unanimous consultation of the Congress, this exercise method finally became a private practice for all high-ranking generals and families, and it was only open to ordinary soldiers and generals. He was also working medicinal baths and pills, and even accepted the concept of becoming an immortal in the flesh of the Taiping Sect, so that Taoism in Hebei was also reformed under the leadership of Zhang Yan.

In other words, the ghost cultivation and Shinto of this era cannot be said to die halfway before they are truly formed. After all, the world after death is too ethereal, and many people prefer to believe in the concept of becoming immortals in the flesh. Maybe in this time and space, the so-called heaven and earth will not appear again, after all, those two things originally corresponded to the way of God and the way of ghosts.

The Republic of China is a country of black technology, and there is Li Yu, a traverser, so he can continue to make black technology; The Han Empire was a country of invention, just because there was a branch of Momen here, which helped it constantly refresh its scientific and technological level; Although the Republic of the Han Dynasty could not complete everything, there was also Zhang Yan, a remnant of the Taiping Sect, who had also embarked on the path of cultivation with the help of him.

In addition, whether it is the Xuzhou Military Government or the Jiaozhou Military Government, in the eyes of these three countries, it is not an independent regime, it can only be regarded as a large separatist force, which is not a cause for concern, and is not recognized by the world.

From the perspective of orthodoxy, the Han Empire has the prince Liu Wei, and the Han Republic has the prince Liu Xie, so the recognition of the people is very high; Although the Huaxia Republic does not have a Han prince, its main body is composed of the people of Baiyue, and their recognition of the Han family is not high, but the recognition of the Huaxia Republic is higher, so it has also become orthodox.

On the contrary, Lu Bu or Sun Jian, who was originally Hanchen, but now they are independent, and they lack righteousness, so they can only be regarded as separatist forces, or rebel forces, and they are not orthodox at all.

As a result of the discussion, Wang Yun's proposal was finally approved. The Republic of Dahan began to send envoys to contact Sun Jian, and even to make private contact with Lu Bu. Compared with Sun Jian, the latter has a higher level of technology and has been able to study artillery, but they have not been able to develop flowering shells. The production line of flowering bombs is equally tempting for them. Confusion.

"You want me to go to war with the Huaxia Republic? Dream! Lu Bu met with the envoy, but after hearing the other party's intention, he objected in one breath.

"The general should not be in a hurry to oppose it, the foreign minister also came with great sincerity......" Xu You, as the envoy, said with a smile, and by the way, he said the conditions given by the Congress.

In the end, he added a few words: "For the Huaxia Republic, whether it is the Xuzhou military government or the general, it is just a dog guarding the household, helping them guard the east." Their businessmen and chambers of commerce, in the Xuzhou military government is very popular, how many people have been looted, the general worked hard to build the military government, but I am afraid that he made a wedding dress for others. ”

After hearing this, Lu Bu's face was indeed cloudy, and he also knew the situation of the Xuzhou Military Government. A large number of chambers of commerce in the Chinese Republic have become so popular that the local chambers of commerce have not been able to develop. Although there were also tax revenues, the bulk of them were still earned by the Chinese Republic, and in the end the military government became a supplier of raw materials and labor.

But he didn't want to think about it, he had robbed the richest families, how could the local capital develop? The military government has no policy support for local businessmen, and the people at the bottom who have just been liberated and are still running for a well-off life have so much capital to do business, let alone develop a chamber of commerce!

Being able to open some small shops, or taverns or hotels is already very good, and you can only expect to develop a giant chamber of commerce directly from scratch in just a few years?

Lu Bu didn't know the economy at all, let alone how to develop the economy, and now under Xu You's instigation, he intuitively believes that it is the sin of the Chinese Republic that he can't develop the Chamber of Commerce.

As for the precious metals part, not to mention. They are also researching ocean-going vessels, but the problem is that the technology of ocean-going navigation is not qualified, so that they have to be careful when sailing in the near sea. Besides, with the strength of the current Huaxia Navy, the other party will not allow the military government to go overseas to Jinshan to grab gold with them.

In the past, these could be endured, but now he does have a son, which is the eldest son born to him by the Yan family. He is two years old this year, and he looks like him.

Even for the sake of this son, he must build the military junta into a stronger one! Or, find a way to expand the junta's sphere of influence!

"If the general attacks, I, the Han Republic, will directly attack Si Li and Yanzhou, and if we get the technology at that time, how about you and I share it? As for the territory, as long as Sili and Yanzhou, Yuzhou and even Nanyang are handed over to the military government in our Han Republic! Xu You saw Lu Bu's intention to move, and immediately struck while the iron was hot.

Sure enough, Lu Bu didn't object immediately, but just let him go down to rest and think about it himself. At this point, Xu You already knew that the other party had taken the bait!

A month later, in August 195 AD, LΓΌ Bu reached a secret agreement with the Han Republic to unite with the Jiaozhou Military Government to launch a full-scale attack on the Huaxia Republic!

"What a fool!" Naturally, this did not hide from Li Yu, and when he saw the information in his hand, he immediately threw it on the table and scolded. (To be continued.) )
