......

The battle for North America has basically been won, most of the territory of the Chosen One has been owned by China, and peace negotiations have begun in Rome. And the biggest hero of this battle may also be Zhu Juan, the future king of the Chosen Country, but he resigned, saying that he would hand over Donghua to the Ming Dynasty for management. This seems to be the great news of God's wishes.

But none of the Ming monarchs and ministers in the palace of the Forbidden City of Nanjing who received the news could laugh out loud about it.

Most of the Donghua King Zhu Juan did not really want to resign from the throne! And even if he is sincere, it is difficult for Daming to govern the mess of Donghua.

After Zhu Guoxiong heard the news, his face was even more blue all day, without a smile.

Although he has always been jealous of Zhu Juan and the Donghua Kingdom, he is also confident that he can firmly suppress these two - not that he looks down on Juan, but that Daming's capital is far stronger than Donghua. The land resources are at least three times that of Donghua, the industry is at least ten times that of Donghua, and the population is 30 times more than that of Donghua.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty is already a core that has been guarded by the Sihua Zhuxia layer by layer, but in Siberia it still borders Russia, and it is enough to maintain a standing army of hundreds of thousands to protect itself. Naturally, it is a matter of time before enough financial resources can be invested in the navy, and it is only a matter of time before a large navy is built to dominate the world.

And Donghua not only has Beihua to contain it, but also has a red America that doesn't know what the way to do but is definitely not easy to deal with. The Continental Army of millions of men must be maintained year after year. Every once in a while, I have to fight with Red America. In addition, in order to attract immigrants from the Ming Dynasty, the Donghua government had to invest a lot of money in national education and welfare. It is even necessary to subsidize the cost of travel for immigrants. So there is certainly no money to vote for the Navy.

Donghua, who has no navy, can only be a gold medal fighter of the Ming Empire...... Donghua paid for his own training, and often went to the battlefield to learn martial arts with the Red United States, and the millions or even millions of elite troops were just shells for the Ming Navy!

Now the Ming court's financial problems for Donghua are just beating Zhu Juan to let him know who is the master of the world. But to Zhu Guoxiong's surprise, Zhu Juan actually chose to pick a son and quit. And what makes Zhu Guoxiong feel tricky is the most. There's a good chance that Juan really doesn't want to do it...... Because there is still a throne waiting for him in Mexico City!

It was on February 1 that Jujuan's mother, Mathilde, ascended the throne of Mexico again. became the queen of the Kingdom of Mexico. She was also the monarch of the Kingdom of Mississippi and the Grand Duchy of Texas. Jujuan, on the other hand, was Mathilde's first heir......

And Juan's ascension to the kings of Mexico, Mississippi and Texas did not mean that he disappeared from the political scene in North America. His influence on Donghua and the Ming Army, which merged with the Donghua Army, still exists. And a large number of bureaucrats and military personnel of the Donghua system. Maybe I will miss him as the old master, and I hope that he will return to Donghua as king. That is to say, once the Ming court took over Donghua, it would immediately face a struggle with Zhu Juan for the hearts and minds of the people. And the way to compete for people's hearts and minds is naturally to spend money to buy it!

And if you give money, you may not be able to buy people's hearts! Because after Donghua became the direct jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, the Donghua military and civilians were the number one contributors to the Ming Dynasty's victory in the world war. Daming can't treat people too much. It is impossible for a large number of officers of the Donghua Army to be arranged in the Ming military system, and the Ming court can only compensate with money. Also, after the end of the war. The Ming Dynasty also needs to station a large army in Donghua for a long time, ready to fight the United States again at any time, which is another huge expense......

Thinking that the mountains of gold and silver were about to flow from the treasury of the Ming Dynasty to North America, Zhu Guoxiong's brows naturally tightened more and more, and finally sighed, "Now." The war was coming to an end, and the king of Donghua had the intention of retiring again. I don't know what your opinion is? ”

"Your Majesty. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Wu Chunqiu, the secretary of the Great China Affairs Book, said first, "Donghua is really the chosen country, it should be directly governed by the imperial court, and the king of Donghua resigned from the throne to accept the land is to know the general situation, and the imperial court should withdraw the feudal state in Donghua and make it the land of the Ming Dynasty forever!" ”

Pan Zuyin, the prime minister of Zuo on the side, glared coldly at Wu Dashangshu, who was in charge of the formation of the Great China Empire, and said in his heart: "King Donghua is your son-in-law, are you busy drawing a line with King Donghua?" ’

'What Chosen One?' It's obviously a place of four battles...... ' Zhu Guoxiong didn't glared at Wu Chunqiu angrily. The concept of "Chosen Country" was put forward by Zhu Jishi, and Zhu Guoxiong didn't believe it at all, although he always echoed this statement in front of Zhu Jishi, and he looked very jealous of Juan.

In fact, he didn't take North America too seriously at all, no matter how good the territory of North America was, could it be better than Daming? And what about a good site? North America is a dead end of yellow and white! There have been two major wars in more than a decade, and perhaps there will be a third major war in 20 years. No matter how good the territory is, it can't help but be ruined like this!

"Your Majesty, you should also consult Emperor Taishang on this matter." Pan Zuyin stood up at this time.

In fact, he didn't want to take over Donghua's mess...... If you want to look bigger on the map, it's better to fight India! That's a hen that lays golden eggs, and Indian Ah San is used to being a slave, and now he is in a hurry to be a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and he is willing to pay tribute every year to the court. Where is it like Donghua, there are hard bones for the rest of the battle, the imperial court wants to take the wrong medicine and accept Donghua, just wait for the year to lose money inside! And if you lose money, most of them will be scolded.

"Yes, it's time to ask the Emperor!" Zhu Guoxiong nodded, although he didn't want to take this mess. But you can't say anything to keep it immediately, otherwise it will be the Ming Dynasty begging Zhu Juan to be the king of Donghua - just waiting to be blackmailed by Zhu Juan, a careerist.

……

When Zhu Guoxiong took Zuo Prime Minister Pan Zuyin and the War Department Shangshu Shi Dakai to arrive at the Hot Spring Palace by train, the absurd and unscrupulous Zhu Jishi had just taken a few favored concubines to soak in the hot springs together, and it was the time to be in a good mood. When he heard that Juan was going to resign as King of Donghua, he just laughed.

"Okay, didn't that fulfill your wish?"

"Erchen didn't think about letting Daming merge Donghua." Zhu Guoxiong followed behind Zhu Jishi and said. When Zhu Jishi and the others arrived, Zhu Jishi was walking in the imperial garden, watching the winter snow - it was his time to run and exercise. But when Zhu Guoxiong arrived, he could only change it to a walk.

"And what are you going to do?" Zhu Jishi asked.

"Erchen wants to ask his father to come forward to comfort King Donghua." Zhu Guoxiong said with a smile. He never mentioned money, so naturally he didn't want to give Donghua economic aid.

Zhu Jishi turned around and said to Zhu Guoxiong: "Juan really wants to resign from the throne of Donghua, there is no need to stay, I only ask if you can take Donghua's plate?" ”

After Zhu Guoxiong was stunned for a moment, he suddenly understood in his heart that Zhu Juan or Mathilde must have sent another secret telegram to Zhu Jishi to explain this matter! Jujuan's resignation from the Donghua throne is true! Guoxiong said: "Erchen doesn't want to take over Donghua. "He's made up his mind not to want this hot potato.

Zhu Jishi looked at the melting ice and snow in the imperial garden, and said after a while: "Liu Jiong just sent the news that the British army has evacuated New York!" The Revolutionary Council of America proclaimed the United Socialist States of America...... By the spring of this year, maybe a new big war will break out in North America! ”

Zhu Jishi seemed to be Wang Gu talking about him, but Pan Zuyin knew what he meant, so he took over the topic and said: "The emperor's intention is to allow King Donghua to resign, but still want him to clean up the mess in North America?" ”

Zhu Jishi nodded, the North American war is a big victory, but the loot has not yet been fully received, and the future layout of North America has just begun. Juan is still the key figure!

The War Department Shangshu Shida said: "At present, hundreds of thousands of American troops are loyal to that revolutionary committee, and I am afraid that the British will not be able to support it for a long time before they will withdraw from the United States." What we don't know now is whether eastern Canada will also fall into the hands of this revolutionary committee. ”

"This is the first mess for Juan to clean up." Zhu Jishi nodded. China and the Red United States will certainly be enemies in the future, but it is not impossible to negotiate peace now. A red America that was intolerant of Britain and Rome was not necessarily unfavorable to the Ming Dynasty, Donghua and Beihua. At least there is one more mountain in the white world, and if there is a revolution in Russia, there will be two red powers, the "United States and the Soviet Union".

"In addition, Mathilde I has taken over as Queen of Mexico, and King Donghua is her first heir to the throne." Pan Zuyin pondered, "King Donghua has always wanted to get his hands on the throne of Mexico, is it because of this that he is resigning as King Donghua now?" ”

"Who should be the king of Mexico? Did Jean Joseph. Bonaparte to take over? Zhu Jishi smiled, "And the recent chaos in South America is getting bigger and bigger, Henry. Bonaparte was out of order, and Mathilde naturally wanted Juan to come out. However, Donghua's throne, they will not really give up. ”

"I see." Zhu Guoxiong nodded. The resignation of Donghua is only sincere, but handing over Donghua to Daming is a hypocrisy. "King Donghua wants to leave the throne of Donghua to Bang Yu's nephew and become the king of Mexico himself!"

'What a calculation! Zhu Guoxiong thought to himself, "In this way, Donghua and Mexico are both occupied, and with his foundation in Donghua, he can still interfere in the politics of Donghua." ’

"What do you mean by Father?" Zhu Guoxiong also knew that this matter was not something he could make up his mind, so he simply asked Zhu Jishi for advice.

"Let Bang Yu go to the Imperial City Public School to study." Zhu Jishi muttered, "The Grand Duchy of Texas and the Kingdom of Mississippi were immediately merged into Donghua (the Kingdom of Mississippi has actually been occupied by Donghua, and Texas is the territory of the whites, so it needs to be firmly controlled with the help of Donghua's power, and then gradually dyed yellow). As for Tung Wah's financial problems and post-war reconstruction...... It should be solved within the framework of the Great China Empire, and the countries of Greater China should have not only a unified currency, but also a unified financial market, so that the countries of Greater China can easily raise funds through the issuance of government bonds.
