Rollo is asking for a monthly pass again, and the competition in the starting point monthly pass list is always fierce! Whining

The news from Hong Kong made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, no matter what, the war of aggression was won after all.

Although Emperor Zhu was ambitious, the Ming people under his rule were peace-loving and would not wholeheartedly devote themselves to an unjust war of aggression against other countries.

Even Emperor Zhu made the worst plan, once the Vietnamese court wanted to resist the war to the end, then the Ming army must expand the war of aggression, capture Hue, the capital of Vietnam, and occupy the entire territory of Vietnam with the French.

At that time, the amount of military and financial resources that need to be invested will naturally exceed the original plan, and in particular, the huge military expenditure will cause the finance, which has managed to reach a balance of payments, to fall into a huge deficit again, and the construction of emigration, railways, and official roads will be greatly slowed down.

Moreover, the occupation of Vietnam is a matter that involves the whole body, and it is not at all the same concept as the Ming Dynasty's land in northern Vietnam, which not only involves the issue of governing Vietnam, but also involves the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and Siam and Burma and the British Empire.

If Vietnam were to be destroyed by the combined efforts of China and France, Siam and Burma, the other two great powers on the Indochina Peninsula, would certainly have a sense of crisis. In particular, the former also played an important role in Emperor Zhu's immigration plan. Siam is undoubtedly a rich land, but due to the influence of Buddhism, the existence of slavery and the invasion of Burma a hundred years ago, and the ensuing long civil war, the population of Siam has always been at a very sparse level.

According to the report of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Ming Dynasty, as of 1850. The total population within the Kingdom of Siam is about 3 million to 4 million! Because of the extreme lack of population. So the Kingdom of Siam is now open to Chinese immigrants. Siam's fertile land was ideal for agricultural production, and it was the world's leading rice exporter.

Therefore, Emperor Zhu was extremely interested in Siam, but now it is not only Zhu Jishi who is interested in this land, but Britain and France are also eyeing Siam. Now that the European revolution is over, Britain and France have refocused their attention on their colonization of the South Seas. If Zhu Jishi launched a war against Siam in spite of British and French opposition, it would certainly cause a deterioration in relations between China and Britain and France. This will certainly be detrimental to the upcoming war against Russia. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty could only adopt a friendly policy towards the Kingdom of Siam, and once the Ming Dynasty fell, the Nguyen Dynasty occupied Vietnam. The Kingdom of Siam, which borders Vietnam (at this time Chin La is a vassal to both Vietnam and Siam), must have been frightened and may have plunged headlong into the arms of the British Empire.

Fortunately, the Nguyen Dynasty in Vietnam was not a Viet Nam after all, and there was no big country like China and the Soviet Union behind it, so in the face of the joint invasion of the Ming Dynasty and France, it finally chose to succumb.

Emperor Zhu put down the copy of the telegram in his hand and instructed Weng Tonggong: "Weng Tonggong, go and ask the French ambassador Bourblon." ”

This war was jointly launched by the Ming and the French, and the Ming could not make peace with Vietnam alone, and had to accept the "surrender" of Vietnam together with the French. Otherwise, the credibility of the Ming Dynasty with the European powers will be ruined.

Because of the war of aggression against Vietnam. The French ambassador to Daming, Bourblon, has been running between Hong Kong and Guangzhou during this time. While in charge of procuring weapons, ammunition, and logistical supplies for the French army, he also used Hong Kong, a "neutral port," to make overt and covert contacts with Vietnamese representatives. He was on Hong Kong Island these days. Just when he received an invitation from Zhu Jishi and was about to leave for Guangzhou. Hayagong in Thanh Hoa, Vietnam. There is a secret meeting going on.

A middle-aged man wearing a red embroidered python robe and a black gauze hat was sitting on top of an embroidered pier, talking to Emperor Da Nan Side on the throne eloquently, and when he reached the emotional place, there were even a few tears rolling down from his eyes.

"Your Majesty...... Now that my Da Nan has reached the critical point of survival, the three generations of the Weichen family have been favored, and they have stepped forward, and the younger brother Ruan Wei, who is loyal and brave, is now willing to follow Jing Ke's feat of assassination. Although the Ming Dynasty is strong, the safety of a country is tied to Zhu Jishi alone, his son is young, and there is no clan to rely on, Zhu Jishi is dead, and his country will be in chaos. China is far richer than Da Nan, Britain and France have been peeping for a long time, once the Ming Dynasty has civil strife, the spearhead of Britain and France will inevitably turn to China, and my Da Nan will have a chance to breathe. ”

The person who spoke was none other than Ruan Zhifang, a scholar of the Da Nan Qin Zheng Temple, the number one important minister of the Da Nan Imperial Court.

Emperor Ruan Phuc listened carefully, and tears overflowed from his eyes. Sure enough, it is the endless Great South, I originally thought that the Confucian students of the Great South were not as brave as the samurai of Japan, but now it seems that there are also Jing Ke and people who specialize in the people. What Ruan Zhifang said is the same as Ruan Fu Hongyi before, Daming is very awesome, but the foundation of this awesome is not stable, the revived Ming Dynasty is thin, Zhu Jishi has no brothers, and his sons are all children. Moreover, the foundation of the country is not solid, and an earth-shaking change is underway, and the Confucian concept of governing the country that has been practiced for 2,000 years is to be transformed into "middle school as the foundation, Western learning as the application", which has also caused the dissatisfaction of many Confucian scholars and doctors. Once Zhu Jishi died, even if Daming did not have civil strife, he would definitely have to devote his main energy to Annei.

However, it is not easy to kill Zhu Jishi, the mortal enemy of the emperor and the people of Danan, and it is not necessarily possible to send hundreds of thousands of brave Danan soldiers and people to succeed, if he is to escape from Nanding, he may launch a larger-scale invasion and wipe out all the seeds of the people of Danan.

So you must give Zhu Jishibu a death-defying game!

"Is Ruan Wei Aiqing's martial arts strong? Can you be sure that Zhu Jishi will be killed? ”

"The younger brother has not practiced martial arts......"

"I haven't practiced it!" A look of disappointment appeared on Nguyen Phuc Shih's face at once. I haven't practiced and still want to learn Jing Ke and Zhuzhu? Can a Jing Ke who doesn't know martial arts go to assassinate Qin?

"But the younger brother is willing to break his bones for Da Nan and the emperor!" Ruan Zhifang said excitedly, "The younger brother has the heart to die, and is willing to follow the example of the Japanese samurai in Osaka Bay, hiding a bomb, and dying with Zhu Jishi!" ”

Suicide bombers! Ruan Fushi was excited all of a sudden, this has a head! As the saying goes: no matter how high your martial arts are, you are afraid of foreign guns. The masters around Emperor Zhu must be carrying foreign guns, not to mention Ruan Wei, even if Jing Ke personally went out, most of them would be killed by random shooting.

"But Ruan Aiqing is hiding a bomb, how can she meet Zhu Jishi?" Ruan Fushi suddenly thought of another question, don't talk about seeing the Great Son with a bomb, it is impossible to see yourself, the Great Southern Son of Heaven...... Searchable!

"The only way to do this is to let the younger brother pretend to be His Majesty and go down to see Zhu Jishi." Ruan Zhifang had already considered this problem, if he sent an envoy to see Zhu Jishi, it would be difficult for the family to be stripped naked and searched carefully, let alone a bomb, even a rotten egg would not be able to bring it in. The only way is for Ruan Wei to put on a dragon robe and pretend to be Emperor De. Emperor Heide is the king of a country in the end, no matter how strict Zhu Jishi's guards are, they will not strip away the king of a country, right?

"This plan works!" Ruan Fushi was even more excited: "You can do it both ways, on the one hand, let Ruan Aiqing do Jing Ke and specialize in things, assassinate Zhu Jishi and Nan Ding; On the one hand, he gathered troops to fight to the death with the Ming thieves near Nanding! Even if Zhu Jishi can escape the assassination, he can't escape the siege of hundreds of thousands of heroes in my Danan! ”

He looked at Ruan Zhifang: "Have the volunteers from Beiqi and Zhongqi been mobilized?" How many people are there? ”

Ruan Zhifang said: "The Privy Council has secretly ordered volunteers from all over Beiqi and Zhongqi to gather in Thanh Hoa, and after a month, there should be 300,000 people in Houji to obey the order. ”

"Great, there are 300,000 Danan heroes, Zhu Jishi will definitely be in trouble!"

Ruan Fushi was overjoyed and said: "When Zhu Jishi is removed, I will spend twenty years working hard!" I want to follow the Tokugawa family's strategy of marching first, first train 200,000 Western-style troops, and then Pingchenla, destroy Siam, swallow Burma, and build our Great South into a truly powerful and powerful country! ”

Listening to Emperor Side's words, Ruan Zhifang's forehead suddenly sweated, the ancestor emperor emphasized Confucianism and light Western learning, which is not a nonsense without a little reason. The Western-style army is very powerful, but it is a gold-swallowing monster, which of foreign guns, foreign artillery, gunpowder, and bullets does not cost a lot of money? Da Nan is not Da Ming and Siam, some good things can be sold to foreigners for guns and guns, and the only things that Da Nan can export are rice, and Da Nan has a large population, and that little food is not enough for itself, do you want to starve to death The people export grain for foreign guns and foreign guns? In this way, there is no need to wait for the enemy to destroy the country, the common people will rebel and overthrow the Nguyen Dynasty! (To be continued......)
