Time flies so fast, decades have passed in the blink of an eye, and at this moment, twenty years have passed since Dayan unified the world.

In the second year of Taining, King Yan ascended the throne in Luoyang and called the emperor, changed the Yuan Hongwu, and set up Chang'an, Luoyang, Jicheng, and Jinling (formerly Jianye) as the four capitals, and set Pei Yinger as the queen.

In addition, Wei Shuo did not treat his henchmen who had followed him for many years, and a large number of civil and military ministers such as Gao Zhan, Pei Wei, Wen Qiao, Mo Han, Liu Yao, Beigong Chun, Zhang Tong, and Zhu Wen were awarded different titles such as Gonghou Bozinan.

In the past 20 years, after the hard work of the Yan State, the country has become more and more prosperous, and the prestige of "Tian Khan" has reached all directions.

In the twentieth year of Hongwu, at the end of February, with the capture of the fugitive Constantine the Great, the Roman Empire officially announced its surrender!

The surrender of Rome marked the end of the East-West War, which lasted for several years, and ended with the final victory of the Yan Kingdom.

After the subjects of Yan received the good news from the front, the country was boiling.

Countless people of the empire couldn't help but hide their faces and cry, it was not easy, it was not easy, the Yan Kingdom had paid too much for this battle, and a total of tens of thousands of soldiers had died in foreign lands before and after.

On the second day of the fourth lunar month, dozens of warships led by the Liaodong slowly sailed through the Suez Canal and headed for the Roman Empire.

On the Liaodong Fuchuan battleship, the second prince Wei Cen was enjoying the scenery on both sides of the strait that was very different from that of the Great Jin Dynasty.

At this time, he was full of pride in his heart, and the empire finally realized his dream of dominating Unai under the leadership of his father.

Since he was a child, he knew that his father had a great ambition, that is, to defeat all enemies and make Huaxia the only king in this world, and now his father's wish has finally come true.

This time, he came here as a representative of the royal family to participate in the signing ceremony of the surrender of Yan and Rome. Of course, there are many people who are qualified to come to sign the surrender agreement, and Xie Ai, a famous general of Yan who has been in charge of the war in Rome, has this qualification.

However, considering that this was too popular, many generals offered to let the emperor himself or members of the imperial family come to sign the agreement. Later, after the military reported this problem, His Majesty the Emperor personally decided that the second prince should come and participate in the ceremony.

The surrender ceremony was held on the battleship Liaodong, and many people, including the emperor, believed that the Liaodong was the most qualified battleship to be surrendered. As the 'Liaodong' with outstanding internal achievements in the Great Jin Naval Division, it really deserves this glory.

In order to ensure security, the Privy Council mobilized 2,000 marines to take charge of security vigilance.

In the morning, the small boat on which the representatives of the Roman government and the army were aboard the 'Liaodong' to participate in the surrender ceremony.

The process of signing the instrument of surrender was very simple and very fast. During the whole process, except for the clatter of the Great Jin Dynasty with the military historian in recording this historic moment, the representatives of Yan and Rome did not say a word.

It took less than a stick of incense for the signing ceremony of the instrument of surrender to end.

Perhaps, this is the shortest and most simple surrender signing ceremony in the history of warfare.

For the Chinese, the ritual is not important.

The important thing is that the war is over, and the Chinese soldiers no longer need to shed blood and sacrifice. They will all return to their relatives in the near future, enjoy the joy of family, and enjoy the happy life that has been exchanged for the lives of thousands of imperial officers and soldiers through sweat and blood.

For soldiers who have fought for several years, going home is the greatest reward for them!

A year later, when Rome was gradually becoming regular, Yan and more than two dozen other countries in the world held the first post-war international conference in Luoyang, the imperial capital.

At the meeting, Yan proposed to form an international coalition to maintain world peace, and this proposal was agreed to by the majority of countries, and in fact they could not agree with it. So far, Yan has become a veritable world hegemon!

Time is like a song, time is like a shuttle, and fifty years have passed in the blink of an eye. In the past fifty years, a lot has happened in the Yan Kingdom.

One of the biggest things is that in the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, the emperor Wei Shuo, who was just sixty years old, suddenly ordered the Zen throne to be given to the crown prince Wei Zheng, which caused a great sensation at the time and caught many people off guard.

As the prince grew up, there was a fierce competition between them for the throne, among which three princes were equally capable and indistinguishable, and in the end, Wei Zheng relied on the status of the eldest son to ascend to the throne.

In order to prevent the brothers from breaking the wall, before Wei Shuo abdicated, the princes who participated in the succession were canonized to all over the world, along with other princes.

After Wei Shuo abdicated, he finally had time to enjoy life.

Since he crossed into this world, he has been busy fighting for world domination and has never enjoyed life properly, and this time he finally seized the opportunity.

In the twenty-five years that Wei Shuo ascended the throne, the Dayan Empire was thriving, and its national strength far exceeded that of previous dynasties.

After Wei Zheng ascended the throne, he took over the burden on Wei Shuo's shoulders, followed the way of governing the country with recuperation, and continued the prosperity of China.

The common people who have experienced the world war are very tired of the war. The only hope for the people of Yan now is to live a better life. Specifically, it means that you can live in a blue brick house, eat white rice or white steamed buns, and often eat meat.

Of course, it would be better if you could live in a building made of reinforced concrete and have meat for every meal.

Those who are more demanding should dress appropriately, pay attention to the quality of food, have spacious and bright mansions in their residences, and have high-end carriages in and out.

After the end of the world war, all countries in the world are desperately developing their economies and improving their own living standards.

Who doesn't want to have a better life? Who doesn't want to make their family a little more decent? To achieve this goal, we need to redouble our efforts.

In the history books, perhaps Wei Shuo's era was the era of Chinese monarchy in the world and full of domineering, but in the twenty years after Wei Zheng ascended the throne, it was the most prosperous and dynamic era of the Dayan Empire.

The vigorous development of the economy is first reflected in transportation. The concentrated embodiment of traffic is the cement road. With the unremitting efforts of the two generations of emperors Wei Shuo and Wei Zheng, the conquest of various places continued to carry out crazy highway construction.

In the past 50 years, the total length of cement roads in the Yan Kingdom has increased to more than 105,000 kilometers, mainly distributed throughout the empire, and these roads have greatly strengthened the central government's control over the localities. Especially in West and Central Asia, there have been many rebellions in the region over the years, but with convenient road arteries, the Yan army has always been able to quickly suppress the rebellion.

After the end of the war, the maritime trade of Yan also developed considerably. The Yan army's sailors are incomparably powerful, and pirates from all over the country dare not rob the merchants of the Yan country at all, otherwise they will inevitably be brutally retaliated against by the Yan army. It is precisely because of this that there has been a blowout of maritime trade in just a few years.

But none of these things can worry Wei Shuo now, and since his abdication, he has devoted all his attention to the study of the steam engine. He invested a large amount of money in it, and set up a special steam engine research center in Chang'an University Hall, and after ten years of hard work, the steam engine finally appeared in the laboratory.

After another four or five years, the steam engine finally entered the eyes of ordinary people, and the appearance of the steam engine greatly promoted the development of the industry of the Dayan Empire!

The appearance of the steam engine finally made Wei Shuo feel at ease a little, although he didn't know where Huaxia would go next, but the progress of science and technology still made him happy. As long as science and technology continue to progress, China will continue to advance, and the people's lives will be better!

Twelve years after Wei Zheng ascended the throne, Wei Shuo died at the age of seventy-two, nicknamed Emperor Wu, temple name Taizu, known as Emperor Yan Wu or Yan Taizu in history, and the folk also called him Hongwu Emperor! (To be continued.) )
