[Today's third update]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At dawn, there was a sudden loud cry around the Liao Wangfu.

Deng Haonan woke up from his slumber and moved his body, only to feel that his whole body seemed to fall apart.

Tan Wanqing, Yan Siyu and Hai Lanzhu were like octopuses, entangled Deng Haonan's whole body.

Finally broke free from their hands and feet, looking at the three beautiful carcasses naked, the snow white crystal showed a red glow, which were all traces left after the fierce battle last night.

couldn't help but touch a few handfuls of them separately, the three girls opened their eyes leisurely, glanced at Deng Haonan charmingly, and then closed their beautiful eyes lazily.

Deng Haonan smiled bitterly and secretly said that he was too ridiculous last night.

Gently covered the quilt for them, Deng Haonan immediately got up to bathe and change clothes.

"What's going on out there?"

When I walked out of the bedroom, I saw that Ding Daniu was already waiting there.

"Lord Qiqi, Lord Qian led the civil and military officials and the people to kneel outside all night"

"What? Kneeling all night? ”

Ding Daniu nodded, and Deng Haonan immediately rolled his eyes, his face speechless.

This Qian Qianyi's acting is really enough to devote, if he is born in the next life, he can become a Hollywood star.

"It's almost time to meet them"

As soon as Deng Haonan's words fell, Ding Daniu and the others were immediately overjoyed and hurriedly shouted to open the door.

As the gate of the Liao Wang's Mansion opened with a creaking sound, the scene outside the door suddenly appeared in front of Deng Haonan's eyes.

Hundreds of civil and military officials dressed in red and green festive court clothes knelt outside the door of the mansion, and countless ordinary people knelt in the distance.

When I looked up, more than 100 Wanmin umbrellas were fluttering in the wind, which was genuine, because there was no such thing in Deng Haonan's plan.

Looking at them, he knelt all night, and Deng Haonan scolded in his heart: Grandma, I've gone too far now

"Ministers, the people of the Ming Dynasty, how can this king be able to afford this great gift, please hurry up"

At this time, Qian Qianyi held the yellow robe in his hand and led the civil and military officials to say in unison: "The Ming family abdicates, the country has no owner, and the officials and generals have no owner. ”

At this time, Ding Daniu and others stepped forward to put the yellow robe prepared by Qian Qianyi on Deng Haonan's body, and then bowed down together.

Some historians in later generations classified this incident as the Yellow Robe Incident with the "Chenqiao Mutiny" of Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, but some historians disagreed, believing that Zhao Kuangyin was a coup d'état by force, while Deng Haonan's was a peaceful evolution.

Afterwards, Deng Haonan asked Qian Qianyi, why did he play so excessively, and after kneeling all night, Deng Haonan meant that Qian Qianyi was not young, and he didn't want to die after kneeling all night

It's just that Qian Qianyi smiled mysteriously, and then took off the thick futon from his knee.

"Wechen was prepared, so there was nothing to do. It's just that the other adults and ordinary people are different, they really knelt all night."

“……”

Deng Haonan suddenly rolled his eyes, and secretly said that Qian Qianyi is really cunning and cunning, and he doesn't have such a whole person.

However, Deng Haonan needs to thank Qian Qianyi, because Qian Qianyi did this, so that Deng Haonan was regarded as the true son of heaven in front of the whole world, and the emperor who was truly blessed and worshiped by the people.

In the afternoon of the same day, Deng Haonan ordered Qintian to monitor and calculate the auspicious days of the zodiac, and calculated the new country name and the new year name, and ordered Qian Qianyi to preside over the enthronement ceremony with full authority.

Qin Tianjian estimated that the 8th day of August in the year of Gengwu was an auspicious day for the zodiac, so he was scheduled to ascend the throne on this day.

In terms of the country name, Deng Haonan originally wanted to continue to use the country name of the Ming Dynasty, but in the end, Qian Qianyi and many other officials did not agree, so Deng Haonan had no choice but to stop using the country name of Ming. Therefore, in the end, Deng Haonan decided to set the name of the country as China, which means to highlight the magnificent China, the country at the center of the world, the surging China, and the descendants of Yan and Huang.

On the issue of the era name and the A.D. era, Deng Haonan finally chose the era name and year. Because he hopes to spread the chronology method to the world, not only in the East, but also to make this chronology popular all over the world, so that Eastern culture can influence the world and prevent the development of Western culture.

The era name is considered a sign of imperial orthodoxy and is called "Fengzheng Shuo". The use of the era name of one regime by another is considered one of the signs of vassalage and submission. This phenomenon occurred mainly during the period of Chinese division. During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Min and Chu states used the Later Liang and Later Tang era names, and the Wu Yue Kingdom used the era names of Tang, Later Liang, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, Later Zhou, and Northern Song Dynasty. In addition, when Korea and Ryukyu were vassal of China, the Chinese imperial era name was also used. Taking Korea as an example, after the death of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the correspondence with the Qing Dynasty, the internal official documents refused to use the Qing Dynasty era name, and instead used the Ganzhi or the king's reign era. As a result, many local separatist forces, minority regimes, and people's uprisings often set their own names for their own years.

The use of era names in China is very complex. Regimes that coexisted at the same time often had their own era names. There are also regimes that change their names several times a year, and several era names overlap. There are also regimes that do not establish their own era names, but continue to use the era names of previous dynasties or other regimes. For example, the Tianfu year of the Later Jin Dynasty was used to nine years, and it was changed to the first year of luck. Three years later, Liu Zhiyuan of the Later Han Dynasty was called the emperor, and he did not build his own era name, nor did he follow the lucky year name, but pursued Tianfu for 12 years. There are also many era names that are reused at different times. For example, Jianyuan has been used for 5 periods. There are also different ways to write an era name because of avoidance or other reasons, such as the Tang Long era name of Emperor Tang Yan, which is also written as Tang Yuan, Tang An, and Tang Xing.

For the sake of the year name, Deng Haonan's head has grown many circles.

Either the name was already used by the previous dynasty, and the ministers of civil and military affairs did not agree. Either the name is not enough to pull the style, Deng Haonan doesn't like it.

In short, on the issue of the name of the year, the Qintianjian and the Hanlin Academy, the Guozijian, as well as the Imperial University, and even the entire dynasty began to argue endlessly.

Since the chronology is a form of the chronology of the emperor's reign, it is also a symbol of power, and it is not allowed to be careless.

The era name arose in the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and has been followed to the Republic of China, after more than 2,000 years of history, in the long historical evolution process, the use of era names is also constantly changing. Before the Ming Dynasty, there were often several or even a dozen era names when an emperor was in power, such as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who reigned for 54 years and shared 11 era names. In 134 B.C., there was a comet, this year was changed to "Yuanguang" In 122 B.C., Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty hunted a horned beast from the suburbs, and changed the name of the year to "Yuan Hunt". Wu Zetian, the female emperor of the Tang Dynasty, reigned for 20 years and changed her name 17 times.

The Qing Dynasty once circulated a limerick poem: "There are no more phoenixes than Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, no more Lingzhi than Song Shenzong, no more than Empress Wu of the Yuan Dynasty, and no more prime ministers than Chongzhen." ”

There are also several dynasties or several emperors in a dynasty who reuse an era name, such as Sun Quan of the Three Kingdoms, Zhang Jun of Qianliang, and Sima Xuan of the Eastern Jin Dynasty have all used the era name "Taiyuan" in the Tang Dynasty, and Gaozong and Suzong in the Tang Dynasty all used the era name "Dagger". After arriving in the Ming Dynasty, an emperor only used one era name.

The method of taking the era name is generally mostly for the beautification of the rule service, and at the same time there is a blessing meaning, so some of the era names will be immediately discarded after using the derogatory meaning, such as Tang Gaozong once planned to use the "Tongqian" year name, and later found that the antithesis of "Tongqian" is "Tiantian" and no longer use. The era name was not only deliberately carved by the feudal ruling class, but also frequently used even in the peasant rebel army, such as the Huangchao rebel army established itself as "Jintong", the Fangla rebel army self-proclaimed "Yongle", and others included Han Lin'er's "Dragon and Phoenix", Li Zicheng's "Yongchang" and so on.

However, Deng Haonan was so troubled because it was too hard to come up with an era name.

"It's just called Shenwu"

Deng Haonan is really annoyed by the issue of the era name, the key is that the good names have basically been used by the predecessors. Later generations don't want to use the names used by their predecessors, so it's so difficult to choose a name.

However, Deng Haonan's decision to call Shenwu satisfied the appetite of the civil and military officials.

"That's a good name"

Qian Qianyi and others finally relented, this name not only shows that Deng Haonan, the emperor, is wise and martial, but also implies that Deng Haonan has the blessing of the gods behind his beginning, and he is a country with martial arts.

In Deng Haonan's view, this name has nothing to praise except for a little bit of style.

At nine o'clock in the morning of August 8, Deng Haonan held an enthronement ceremony in the Forbidden City Palace, officially abolished the Ming Xun Emperor, founded the country as China, called the Chinese Empire, set the capital in Beijing, and the founding year was called "Shenwu", and changed the first day of January next year to the first year of Shenwu.

At the ceremony, Emperor Shenwu Deng Haonan announced the canonization of Yang Wanshu as the empress of the Chinese Empire, the crown prince Deng Guoxing as the crown prince, and granted amnesty to the world. Several other wives were also canonized as imperial concubines, Yan's concubines, Zhao's concubines, Tan's concubines, Borzigit's concubines, and Zhang's concubines.

Concubine Chen is Zhang Yan, since no one will know who the Zhang family is at this time, everyone's attention is focused on the emperor and empress. Because only the queen participated in the emperor's enthronement ceremony, it was the best time to add Zhang Yan at this time. Afterwards, even if someone thought of that Concubine Chen, they gradually faded out of sight because they couldn't see anyone.

As for letting the former queen mother disappear, Deng Haonan had already prepared. In the future, the Empress Dowager Cheng missed her son and became ill, and finally died of illness, and no one doubted it. Because this qiē happened in the palace walled courtyard, no one could see with their own eyes what Deng Haonan said.

After Deng Haonan ascended the throne as emperor, he remained the same, Qian Qianyi was still the first and auxiliary minister of the cabinet, and there was no change in personnel.

Qian Qianyi was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Cheng Ji was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Wen Tiren was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Works, Ni Yuanlu was appointed as the secretary of the Criminal Department, Wang Chengen was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Households, and Lin Feng was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of War. Zhang Pu entered the Hanlin Academy as the editor-in-chief, and received the official title of the prince and young master of the East Palace. Li Pengfang manages Dali Temple, He Rupet manages Guozijian, Wang Chen serves as the commander of Jinyi Weibei Town, Wang Zhaoyang serves as the commander of Jinyi Weinan Town, Li Xiaoliu is still the head of Da Nei, and also leads the East Factory, but the rights of the East Factory have been divided between the two Jinyi Wei Town Fu Divisions in the north and south, and they can only control the intelligence of Beijing Sijiu City.

After the abdication of the Ming family, the treatment of the descendants of the Ming royal family will also be abolished. The titles of the members of the Ming family were cut off, but Deng Haonan did not confiscate their property, but only took back the fiefs and privileges given to them.

Treat the members of the Ming family well, this is Deng Haonan's first order after becoming emperor, which is tantamount to appeasing the last hostile force in the country. Of course, the members of the Ming family have no soldiers and no power, and they are powerless to confront Deng Haonan.

The general trend is the trend of the times, and the members of the Ming Chamber know in their hearts that it is useless to resist indifferently.

Of course, among these people, there are still those who hate Deng Haonan. This is the former king of letters, Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Youzhen was calculated by Deng Haonan, and as a result, he lost his last hole card to balance Deng Haonan. Although Zhu Youzhen has now been cut off and has become an ordinary person, this cannot stop his determination to restore the country.

It's just that Zhu Youzhen's current ability in his hands can't compete with Deng Haonan, so he can only choose Taoguang to raise his eyes and wait for the opportunity.

Throughout history, every time there is a change of dynasty, it is inevitable that there will be remnants of the previous dynasty who will rebel against the emperor of the new dynasty. This is not unusual, and it can't be hidden, so Deng Haonan was not surprised when he heard Jinyiwei's report.

"Your Majesty, do you want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots?"

In the imperial study, Nanzhen Fusi commanded Wang Zhaoyang to report to Deng Haonan, and when Zhu Youzhen was mentioned, he made a killing word.

"Forget it"

Deng Haonan waved his hand and said, "There is no need to do this now, killing him will make the people underestimate my measure."

Wang Zhaoyang nodded, since Deng Haonan didn't care about a Zhu Youzhen, then he didn't have to bother more, after all, in his opinion, Zhu Youzhen couldn't set off any big waves.

Flipping through another Wen Jiàn folder, Wang Zhaoyang took out a copy of Wen Jiàn printed with military characters and handed it to Deng Haonan.

"Your Majesty, this is Batavia's latest battle report"

Deng Haonan opened it and looked at it, smiled very satisfied, and said: "Southeast Asia is a pot of porridge, this is the best."

Wang Zhaoyang said: "At present, the Spanish army refused to surrender to the empire, mainly because they occupied a large area in the eastern part of the Dutch East Indies, and with the supply of the local natives, they could hold out until now. ”

It turned out that since the troops of the Chinese Empire occupied Manila, a month later, the Spanish Army got the news. By that time, the Spanish army had already lost a lot of soldiers under the city of Batavia, and there were less than 21,000 men left. When the Spanish army learned of this bad news, they immediately lost the courage to fight. The Spanish commander Reshard then stopped attacking Batavia and instead prepared to return to the Philippines to retake it from the Chinese Empire.

However, it was only then that they discovered that their transport ships were no longer equipped with an escort fleet. The Pacific Fleet blockaded the coast, making it impossible for Spanish troops to return to the Philippines.

At this time, the Dutch East India Company seemed to have reached some tacit agreement with the Chinese Empire, and the Dutch East India Fleet and the Pacific Fleet ceased fighting for several months. The Dutch went specifically to deal with the Quadruple Alliance, freeing up the Pacific Fleet to block the retreat of the Spanish Army.

After receiving the letter from Governor Fernando, Ryshard already knew that he had no way to recover, but he never surrendered, and continued to fight in the eastern part of the Dutch East Indies with his soldiers. He soon captured Pudogado, a town in the east of the Dutch, and used it as a base to plunder everywhere.

Ryshard knew that he could not save the Philippines, but he was not willing to fail with Fernando, so he decided to carve out a piece of territory on the territory of the Dutch and become the governor himself.

Thus, over the next few months, Ryshard led the Spanish army to quickly occupy a dozen towns in the eastern part of the Dutch East Indies, which were partially replenished, and finally became his governor.

However, on the island of Kalimantan, which had previously been occupied by the Spanish army, the Matapura fortress was soon occupied by the Chinese Imperial Army, with less than 1,000 defenders. The island of Kalimantan, which is so large that it is the size of two Philippines, is in Chinese hands, and it really worries Ryshad. It's a pity that he doesn't have a ship to go back, otherwise with such a large territory, even if he loses the Philippines, he can explain to the king of Spain. Now he can only sigh with admiration.

The Spanish army withdrew from the battle to attack the fortress of Batavia, making it impossible for the Anglo-French-Swiss-Norwegian forces to capture Batavia. As a result, the Four-Nation Coalition also gave up the unrealistic idea of continuing to attack Batavia, and seized the western part of the Dutch East Indies one after another, and divided it into four parts. Britain and France, which have the largest number of people, occupy the largest territory, followed by Sweden, and Norway has the least. Although the Holy Roman Empire was not able to occupy any towns, they had a big face and asked for the Holy Roman Empire to be allowed to do business in the occupied areas of the four countries. In this regard, the other four countries had no choice but to agree.

The Dutch were now left with the forts of Batavia and Bandung, as well as the narrow strip of territory between them. Although the distress letter to the Dutch mainland had arrived, the local East India Company and the Dutch parliament were unable to reinforce the Far East due to the war in Europe.

The Dutch parliament contacted France, Great Britain, Sweden, and Norway, and demanded that they intervene to stop the actions of the East India Company in their respective countries, as they were all anti-Holy Roman Empire allies. However, none of these countries want to see the Netherlands, and they are dissatisfied with the fact that a small Dutch is everywhere and their business is strong. Therefore, they rejected the request of the Dutch government, and the Dutch government began to hate these countries, so it began to strengthen the Dutch navy and was hostile to Britain, France, Sweden and Norway. In this way, the Thirty Years' War in Europe entered a period of naval melee in advance.

The Dutch government in Europe could not help the Dutch East India Company in the Far East, so the Governor of the East Indies, Arnhem, had to continue to hold on and wait for help.

The Dutch did not dare to leave the fortress of Batavia lightly, so the Dutch East Indies were divided by Spain, Britain, France, Sweden, Norway, and the Holy Roman Empire, and became the power of the six powers.

To the north of the Dutch East Indies, the Chinese Empire's armies occupied Kalimantan and Singapore, staring across the sea.

The envoys of the East India Company of Britain and France repeatedly went to Manila to demand that the Chinese Empire fulfill its promise and carve up Kalimantan Island. But Zhao Chuanfeng, the governor of Luzon, only excused himself as the person in charge of those affairs, and asked them to go to the person in charge. The island of Kalimantan was too large for the East India Companies of various countries to abandon it, so they sent special envoys to Beijing.

However, when he arrived in Beijing, the Minister of the Navy, Chen Yaoming, claimed that the war in Southeast Asia was not over, that the Dutch were still there, and that they had to wait until the Dutch were expelled before they could divide the territory. However, the Spanish army withdrew, and the East India Company armies of several other countries were unable to take Batavia, so the representatives of each country asked the Chinese Empire to send troops to attack Batavia. However, Chen Yaoming at this time used the Chinese Empire as a reason that it had just undergone a dynastic change, and it was not easy to send troops. The countries urged in every possible way, and in the end, Chen Yaoming excused himself on the grounds that the new government had just been established and things were busy.

As a result, the delegates of various countries wandered around Beijing for a year, but they were unable to achieve their wishes. It was only then that the East India Companies of various countries understood that the two largest territories in Southeast Asia, the Philippines and Kalimantan, had been occupied by China, and every qiē was used.

However, they knew that this was the result, and the Chinese Empire would definitely rely on Kalimantan Island to refrain from it, but they could not turn the other cheek with China, because his main purpose was to make money through business.

Fortunately, the Spaniards lost the Philippines, and the Dutch were controlled by the Pacific Fleet and could not trade near Batavia, leaving them with trade with China. Therefore, in the end, they chose to take hold and forbear, and as businessmen, they still put business first.

According to the information obtained by Wang Zhaoyang, Deng Haonan marked the spheres of influence of various countries at this time on the map.

"The six countries divided the Dutch East Indies, and we watched from the sidelines, doesn't I feel like this is the pattern of the Warring States Period?"

After listening to this, Wang Zhaoyang looked at the map carefully, and suddenly smiled: "What the emperor said is that the East India Company of the Six Nations is concentrated on one island, and it will not be long before there will be a fight because of the imbalance of interests." And our empire is separated by sea, just like the Western Qin in the Warring States Period, when the time is ripe, we will take them together"

Deng Haonan nodded and said, "The Asia-Pacific region can only be controlled by the merchants of our empire, which is the traditional sphere of influence of the empire, and Western forces are not allowed to intervene. When the empire surpasses the West in terms of industrial and military capabilities, it will be the time when we will drive them out in an all-round way."

"I believe that this time is not far off"

After Wang Zhaoyang finished speaking, he took out another copy of the document and handed it to Deng Haonan and said: "There is news from Mexico that after Fernando arrived in Mexico, the governor of Mexico declared war on the empire and cut off trade with the empire."

Deng Haonan nodded, all in anticipation. When he first released Fernando and left, he knew that this would happen.

However, Deng Haonan admired the governor of Mexico, and when he started a war with the Chinese Empire, could it be that he was still ready to send a fleet to fight thousands of miles away?

"The Spanish army that invaded the Philippines was sent by the governor of Mexico, with 100,000 troops and more than 100 warships. Therefore, I do not doubt that Mexico has the ability to expedition empires"

"Oh"

Deng Haonan also knew about this for the first time, he hadn't paid attention to it before, and thought it was done by the Spanish armed merchant group

"How's our deployment at Fort Seattle?"

"Returning to the Emperor," replied Wang Zhaoyang, "the Seattle fortress has not yet been discovered by the Spaniards, and although the Spaniards claim sovereignty over the coastal strip of the American continent on the east coast of the Pacific Ocean, they obviously have no intention of developing it. ”

It is relatively poor, sparsely populated and separated by high mountains, and of course it is reluctant to develop

"Ma Guangyuan and Shi Tingzhu have completed their training with 20,000 heavy cavalry, and they can be ready to attack at any time."

Ma Guangyuan and Shi Tingzhu were the 20,000 Han troops of the Manchu Qing Dynasty that year, and they were later transported to the Americas, camped near the Seattle Fortress in the Americas, and relied on the war horses raised by the Seattle Military Horse Farm to form heavy cavalry. At the same time, the Pacific Trading Company brought them the heavy equipment of the Black Armor Elite Cavalry, and armed them into veritable heavy cavalry.

"Have they adapted to life there?"

"Adapted," Wang Zhaoyang said, "When they first arrived on the American continent, they fell ill a lot, and more than 2,000 people died. Later, after staying there for more than a year, I gradually got used to it. For this reason, the War Department has dispatched some capable officers from the Black Armor Elite Cavalry to supplement the past, and the current combat effectiveness of this team is no less than that of the Black Armor Elite Cavalry Long Wu, Leopard Tao and Eagle Yang Sanwei."

Deng Haonan nodded and said: "That's good, set up a Jaguar and Panther Cavalry Army for them, Ma Guangyuan is the commander and commander of the Jaguar Heavy Cavalry Division, Shi Tingzhu is the deputy commander, and the commander of the Jaguar Heavy Cavalry Division." They were ordered to start their operations now, and the goal of the operation was to loot Mexico. ”

"Yes"

Wang Zhaoyang asked again: "It's just that the heavy cavalry may not have an advantage over the Spanish musket phalanx, should we send the Marine Division or the Lancers over?" ”

Deng Haonan waved his hand and said: "Don't use it for the time being, it's enough to have 20,000 heavy cavalry to continue to loot Mexico, and by the way, you can explore the extent of the expansion of Western countries in the Americas, our American offensive is not in a hurry, we need to wait until the navy expands." For now, we just need to camp our troops in Hawaii and wait for the right moment."

When it comes to the West's offensive in the Americas, Wang Zhaoyang also has some information here, but it was half a year ago, or even earlier.

In 1606, the London Virginia Company was chartered by the English crown to develop and colonize the North American continent between 34 and 41 degrees north latitude. In 1607, the company's three large ships carrying more than 120 colonists arrived at the mouth of the James River and established the settlement of Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement on the North American continent, which later developed into the colony of Virginia. In 1628, some English Puritans founded the New England Company, which was reorganized the following year as the Massachusetts Bay Company, and a year later they moved the company to the New World to escape religious persecution and established the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

In 1620, the same group of English separatists fleeing religious persecution in the Netherlands arrived in present-day Plymouth, Massachusetts, on the ship Mayflower, and before they arrived on the American continent, adult men signed a contract that laid the political foundation for the future colony, declaring that they would make "just and equal" laws to govern the "civic political groups" they had formed together, and they established the colony of Plymouth.

However, the British had already opened up two larger colonies, Providence and Newport, as well as some smaller settlements, which were not in Wang Zhaoyang's information. Deng Haonan only knew that Britain had opened up thirteen colonies in the Americas at the beginning, and he did not know when it was established.

At this time, when I heard Wang Zhaoyang's report, I also knew a lot about the situation.

In addition to the United Kingdom, there were many countries in North America that established colonies. Among them, the Dutch colonists established New Amsterdam (i.e., New York) in North America, which was later expanded into the colony of New Netherlands. The French established the colony of Nophasco in North America, which included the eastern part of present-day Canada and the vast area of the Mississippi River in the United States. Portuguese, Danish, and Italian sailors established several settlements in the vicinity of Mexico, but they were not permanent settlements and were therefore not included in the colony.

After Deng Haonan had a general understanding of the situation in the North American colonies, he no longer asked about the situation there. After all, the current intelligence services are not capable enough to control the situation in the Americas, because of the long distances and backward communications, the fastest news can take three months, and all the information heard is outdated.

However, there is information about the Tokugawa shogunate.

It turned out that the Tokugawa shogunate had been haunted by Deng Haonan after being ravaged by Deng Haonan. The signing of unequal treaties was disgraceful enough, and the opening of a large number of treaty ports allowed a large outflow of grain and silver from Japan, threatening the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate.

As a result, Tokugawa Iemitsu, after weighing the pros and cons, finally decided to implement a total sea ban. All Japanese citizens migrated inland, and a no-man's land was set up 100 miles along the coast. This policy was modeled after the Ming Dynasty's maritime ban, but it was now used against the Chinese Empire.

Deng Haonan smiled, he knew that the Tokugawa shogunate in Japan began to implement a sea ban in the later period, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. Historically, after the Dutch occupied Taiwan, they continued to harass Japan by sea, and led Japan to start a policy of seclusion and seclusion that lasted for hundreds of years. Unexpectedly, now the Chinese Empire has been forced to implement the policy of closing the country in advance.

"It seems that Tokugawa Iemitsu still doesn't feel the pain, so why don't the emperor send an army to clean them up and bring the Wa Kingdom into colonial rule."

The inclusion of Japan in the colonial system made Deng Haonan suddenly interested.

It's just that Deng Haonan knows that although the current Tokugawa shogunate is not good at navy, the army is not weak, and if they really want to force them to fight with the empire, it will be an uncertain war

However, Deng Haonan wanted to try everything, and if he could really defeat and include Japan in the colonial system, it would be a good choice. After all, although Japan is poor in resources, it is also a former silver-producing country.

Among them, the Tosado Gold Mine and the Iwami Silver Mine were the main financial pillars of the Tokugawa shogunate, and for this reason, colonial Japan also had a lot of plundering income.

Deng Haonan thought of this and ordered: "Immediately send someone to collect the situation of the Tokugawa Shogunate, and then hand it over to the General Staff for study, whether it works or not, I want a result."

"Wechen obeys the order"

As soon as Wang Zhaoyang heard this, he immediately called, and he was full of energy.

[Three chapters were updated today, but it is the weight of two days of chapters, and the purpose is just to thank friends for their continued support of the cruiser] V
