Epilogue (10)

Yinren reported in a secret compromise that after consolidating the Persian port of Bandar Abbas, he had found a suitable place to build a port in the northernmost part of the Persian Gulf, located at the junction of the two major empires of Persia and the Ottomans.

Yinhe was also unambiguous, proposing to establish the Qing Dynasty's base in the Persian Gulf at Kuwait Harbor in the Gulf of Kuwait, and he even bluntly said in the secret compromise that the cavalry of the Arab Empire was completely vulnerable.

Zhenwu looked at the map, Yinren is in Arabia, Yinren is in Persia, both of them have a good vision, both realize the strategic value of the northernmost part of the Persian Gulf, establish a port at the northernmost tip of the Persian Gulf, and rely on the naval superiority of the Qing Dynasty to attack the Persian, Ottoman, and Arab empires at any time.

Now that the northwest has started fighting, the Persian Gulf is indeed not suitable for any further delay, but an area of such strategic significance cannot be divided out, for fear that the boss and the second will be disappointed, and only after a little groaning, Zhenwu decided to use Kuwait Port as the base of the Qing Navy in the Persian Gulf, which is to take into account the wide waters of Kuwait Bay, which is conducive to naval operations, and has a large room for maneuver.

After replying to the secret fold, Zhenwu drafted an order, and the commander-in-chief of the Navy's Beiyang Fleet set up a Middle East Fleet, with a tentative size of 5,000 people, two third-class battleships, six fourth-class ships, and a number of auxiliary ships, and another 5,000 Praetorian New Guards to accompany him, and set sail to Bandar Abbas and Kuwait as soon as possible to contain the Persian and Ottoman empires and prevent them from going north.

After dealing with the affairs of the Persian Gulf, Zhenwu began to dismantle the excerpts of Yinzhen, Shi Shibi, Lin Wei, Fu Anding and others, and the situation in Europe was much better than Zhenwu expected, since the summer of the second year of Zhenwu. After the war in Europe was rekindled. The war intensified, and the Qing rarely participated directly in the war, but provided France and Spain with a large amount of supplies, including the Qing's new muskets and Nimi bullets.

Zhenwu was reluctant to send the new breech-loading rifled artillery, and Yinzhen and Shi Shibi were also reluctant to send it, which was the capital of the Qing Navy. For the new artillery, Yinzhen, Shi Shibiu, Lin Wei, Fu Anding and other generals are all trying their best to keep secrets and take strict precautions, but for the centralized use of artillery, the French learned very quickly.

Although there are no new artillery. However, after receiving a large number of new Nimi guns and ammunition, the Franco-Spanish coalition army has increased its combat power, and although it is still inferior in terms of army size, it has won successive battles, and the allied armies of Britain, the Netherlands, the Holy Roman Empire, Austria, Portugal and other countries have been defeated one after another.

However, the advantage did not last long, but within half a year, the British alliance learned the secret of the Nimi gun. Began to make a large number of imitations. And equipped to the army, in fact, the principle of the Nimi gun is not worth a penny to put it bluntly. Rifled guns have been available in Europe for a long time, but they are just stuck in the level of reloading.

The Nimi gun soon became famous and widely popular in Europe, but by this time, the balance of power between Britain and France had been roughly equal, and the war in Europe began to reach a stalemate.

The Nanyang Fleet of Yinzhen and Shi Shibiao did not sit idly and watch the tiger fight, but began to sweep away the pirates in the Mediterranean and the North Atlantic, so as to restrict the sea routes of British and Dutch merchant ships and attack the maritime trade between the two countries. Of course, the expansion in North Africa has not stopped, in order to solve the food logistics supply of Tangier, the Nanyang Fleet has incorporated all the plains in the southwest of the interior of Morocco under its rule, and Tangier has ceased to be a port, as if it has become a vast kingdom.

What made Zhenwu even more proud was that the warships and merchant ships of the Qing Dynasty took advantage of various opportunities to continuously transport all kinds of reproduction or poisonous weeds, plants, animals, and insects from Asia, America, Africa, and Australia to all parts of Europe.

Seeing this, Zhenwu smiled slightly, biological invasion is a new tactic, not to mention that Europe is now at war, even in the peaceful period, no one will realize that this is a serious threat to European agriculture and animal husbandry, let alone realize that this will break the ecological balance of Europe, at this time it is estimated that there should be no concept of ecological balance.

In this case, I believe that in a few years, these invasive alien species will flourish in Europe, without pesticides, herbicides, and in the absence of sufficient understanding of the biological chain of plant habits, how can Europeans deal with the rapid spread of hyssop, coarse hyssop, knotweed, goldenrod, Mikania, water hyacinth, Mediterranean poisonous algae, How to deal with insects and animals that seriously damage the natural ecology, such as American white moths, snails, hairy crabs, domestic cats, and wild goats?

What will Europe look like in a few years? Needless to say, European agriculture, animal husbandry, and biological chains will all face a significant reduction in production, face a fatal blow, and even collapse! This will not only greatly curb the economic recovery of Europe, but also greatly limit the growth of Europe's population.

The Qing Imperial Academy is located in the northwest of Hongren Temple, the imperial city of Beijing, which is the address chosen by Zhenwu himself, the reason why Zhenwu was chosen here is that it is convenient for Zhenwu to come and go, and then it is also to enhance the reputation of the Royal Academy, of course, the environment here is also quite good.

In the past few years, the Royal Academy has been continuously expanded, the scale has surpassed the Guozijian, of course, the facilities in the academy are incomparable to the Guozijian, with a large number of natural sciences, physical chemistry, astronomy and geography, navigation and metallurgy and other talents in Europe, the Qing Dynasty Royal Academy quickly appeared a situation of talent peak.

These people came voluntarily, and some were kidnapped, but without exception, they all dragged their families to the Qing Dynasty, Zhenwu treated them equally, and they were provided with good food and drink, never mentioning academic requirements, and if they loved research, they would study, and those who did not want to be forced would not be forced, and there were no restrictions on action, and they did not interfere with the missionaries of Beijing, in a word, they were completely free, of course, there were those who asked for research funds, and he was always responsive, and he promised to give the Qing Dynasty a reward for the research results.

At the same time, Jeongmu also ordered the royal academy to write various slogans in French, English, and Spanish, such as 'Science has no borders.' "Scientific and technological creation is the ladder of human progress. "Science and technology are the primary productive forces", "Science and technology are the key to human conquest of nature", and so on.

After feeling the prosperity of the Beijing Division, and after feeling that the fixed monthly routine could not satisfy the rich life of the family, many people began to devote themselves to research under the leadership of some scholars after a period of adaptation.

For these scholars, a difficult problem or a hypothesis often stimulates their enthusiasm for research, and many of them unconsciously devote themselves to research.

Northwest.

Yue Zhongqi led an army of 10,000 and did not go to Tibet, but went west out of Jiayu Pass, and went straight to the Junggar royal city of Kara Erchis, Zhenwu seven years, summer, the new army of the Janissary Guard suddenly appeared in the royal city of Kara Erchis, Qiu Ce delirium Alabutan was shocked when he heard the report, and hurriedly organized 20,000 troops to meet the battle, and the battle was defeated, Yue Zhongqi tightly bit Qiu Ceyu Alabutan and did not let go, followed all the way to cover and kill, and chased to the important town of Yarkand in Junggar in August.

In the first battle of Yarkand, the new army of the Janissaries annihilated the last 16,000 elites of the Dzungar tribe, and captured the delirium Alabutan, and the tribes of the Dzungar tribe immediately heard the wind and surrendered, and the news spread to Lasa, Tibet, and the Tsering Dundobu, who was cut off from the back road, was forced to lead the people to surrender.

In the first battle in the northwest, the new army of the Janissary was famous, Yue Zhongqi was even more powerful in the northwest, and the good news reached the Beijing Division, Kangxi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, a Galdan, he personally conquered three times, and fought hundreds of thousands of troops for several years, which can be described as fighting with national strength, but now the old fourteenth only sent 10,000 troops, and the commander of the army is still a little-known Han general, but he pacified the Northwest Rebellion in one year, and the gap is really too big.

The great victory in the northwest, Yue Zhongqi did not return to the dynasty, but built a garrison in Luntai County on the bank of the Urumqi River, and widely recruited displaced people to reclaim, regardless of farmers, merchants and craftsmen, all exempted from all taxes, the news came out, the displaced people, herdsmen, craftsmen, and merchants from all over the country heard the news, and Zhenwu also dispatched 5,000 green battalions and 5,000 new guards from Xi'an to Luntai.

Solved the trouble of the Northwest Junggar, Zhenwu immediately looked at the Nanyang vassals, he has been working hard all these years, but the Nanyang vassal states are intimidated by the Qing Dynasty, and none of them dare to rebel, which makes Zhenwu very unhappy, and the Mughal Empire is like a dead snake, no matter how to provoke, he refuses to send troops to Burma, there is no way, he has to abandon his reputation, and Southeast Asia really can't drag it on.

In the spring of March of the ninth year of Zhenwu, Zhenwu Lingyi County Wang Yinxiang was the commander, and Nian Qianyao was the deputy marshal, leading the navy of 10,000 and the Karopa Praetorian Guard of 20,000 new troops.

The sun had already set, and the Burmese Donghu Dynasty, which was still breathing, was frightened when he arrived, and sent an envoy to Daguang Port overnight to pay homage to the suzerainty and inquire about the reason.

Yijun Wang Yinxiang replied very concisely, there is no reason, His Majesty Zhenwu, the Emperor of the Qing Empire, wants to add a few more provinces, either to become the Qing Dynasty Burma Province, or we will build our own provinces.

In less than half a year, the whole country of Burma surrendered, the Qing Dynasty added another province, and the royal family of the Donghu Dynasty moved to Beijing with the ship.

In the winter of the ninth year of Zhenwu, Siam, Annam, Champong, and Laos were listed one after another, and the country was withdrawn to establish provinces, and Southeast Asia was all included in the territory of the Qing Dynasty.

In the spring of the tenth year of Zhenwu, North Korea also followed the above table, asking for the withdrawal of the country and the establishment of a province, but the Japanese state was slow to see the above table.

In the summer of the tenth year of Zhenwu, the year of Yao was conquered.

There was no province in the Qing Dynasty, because there was no one, so there was naturally no need to build a province, and the most important thing in the Qing Empire today was land. (To be continued.) )
