On April 27, a report on the situation in Sichuan was placed on Ding Yuntong's desk. At this time, the division of peasant components has been completed, and some relevant supporting measures are also in full swing. Sichuan is one of China's most important rice-producing regions, and the harvest generally begins in August, depending on the terrain, but no later than September. According to his jihua, the grain collection will begin in August, the harvest season.

According to the time estimate, it is the time when North Korea is turned upside down, and it seems that the two ends will be done together.

As soon as the situation in North Korea stabilizes a little, industrialization will begin, so it is necessary to formulate as soon as possible the investment in factories, the introduction of equipment, and the hiring of foreign experts.

Time waits for no one, Ding Yuntong Jihua will clean up Japan in the future and engage in construction at the same time. He didn't want to be like the Celestial Empire in his previous life, which had only started the first five years after the Korean War. This shijie must race against time, otherwise the daylily will be cold. According to the course of history, within ten years, the whole of Central Asia will be completely swallowed up by Russia, and the whole of South Asia will become the iron camp of Britain, and then there will be no room for maneuver at all, and the continental passage to the West that he dreamed of will be completely closed, the distant Persian Gulf, Jerusalem, Constantinople, North Africa, the Balkans. My God, if you are a dictator on the East Asian continent, what is the point of living? What is the difference with Yongle and Qianlong, who are short-sighted monarchs?

At this time, the khanates of Khiva and Bukhara in Central Asia still maintained their independence in name only, and still had the will to resist Russia;

Most of the Turkmen tribes were only forced to submit to Tsarist Russia, and the best Turkmen cavalry in the history of mankind still harassed the Russians from time to time;

The countries of South Asia had not yet become British territory, and Sikkim was still a dependency of Tibet;

Afghanistan is still full of warlords and tribes, and the central government is in vain (it seems that the country will always be a pot of porridge from the beginning of human beings until the end of Shijie);

Persia (Iran) was still controlled by a foreign slave government, more corrupt and traitorous than the Manchu dynasty in its predecessors, Britain and Russia were engaged in a trade war here, and the Jewish Reuters was engaged in a major infrastructure project (this man later started a Reuters);

And the most important goal, China's hope for the future, is the beautiful, vast and rich Ottoman Empire. The whole Middle East is its territory, it has endless oil, and this is the future of mankind, and whoever controls it will control the future.

Ding Yuntong believes that by the time the twentieth century dawns, China has joined the ranks of carving up the legacy of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. When the time comes, it is entirely possible to take advantage of one's familiarity with the course of history, the rebellious sentiment of the Arabs, and so on.

And the premise of doing all this is to buy all the time to develop strength, even if it is a war against Japan or other countries, the process of industrialization cannot be interrupted. This determines that it is necessary to make good preparations for long-term domestic and foreign warfare.

Ding Yuntong was thinking about it, and Wang Xuehui, the foreman of the imperial guard, ran in, she was the only one who didn't need to be reported and could come directly to see the driver.

But there was something unusual today, and I actually ran in! Ding Yuntong was stunned, what is this for?

Wang Xuehui jumped in, and when she saw Ding Yuntong, she shouted happily: "Report to the emperor, I found it!" ＂

This voice made the second monk Ding Yuntong puzzled: "Found it?" What was found? ＂

If someone else is around, they will be surprised to see this scene. This Wang Xuehui actually jumped so much and made noise at will in front of the emperor, and there was no appearance of the ministers being respectful and daring to come out. However, a few eunuchs who were waiting were no longer surprised. They all knew that the emperor was very fond of this guard, and the two of them were very casual with each other, and there were no etiquette precepts between kings and ministers at all.

Ding Yuntong really likes this Wang Xuehui, because she has a straightforward personality, she is not twisted at all, and she confesses from the bottom of her heart, just like a pool of clear water, she does things neatly and neatly, and she is like a heroine. Compared with the palace maid Yuying, the latter is like a flower in a greenhouse, beautiful but a little pretentious, while the former is like a wild flower in the mountains, beautiful and fragrant, healthy and natural, not to mention that she is now Ding Yuntong's most trusted personal guard.

Hearing the emperor's question, Wang Xuehui realized her recklessness, and quickly knelt down and replied: "Your Majesty, it was my brother who found him, and he worked as a sailor on a ship. ＂

Oh, Ding Yuntong remembered that it was Wang Guocheng, the legendary sharpshooter, who originally thought it was just an artistic fiction in the movie, but he didn't think that there was a real person. In the movie, this person fired four shots in a row and hit three shots. The vast sea, the waves are turbulent and undulating, and from afar, such a high hit rate is simply an open plug-in. If this is put on an ironclad ship in the future and operates the main gun, then it will not become a heavy artillery sniper? One of the two siblings is a sharpshooter and the other is a sharpshooter, which can only be explained by genes.

Thinking of this, Ding Yuntong said: "I found the best, since this is the case, I will transfer him to Beijing, and you brothers and sisters will have a good reunion." As for the future, I can't rush to promote him just because he is your brother. Look, is this good, I let him be a gunner on the main battleship, and if he makes meritorious service in the future, how about promoting him exceptionally? ＂

Wang Xuehui was full of joy, the gunner on the main battleship, this is not just any soldier can be, whether it is a drill or a naval battle, the gunner is responsible for the attack, it is the easiest to make meritorious contributions, and the prospect of promotion is also the best. Unlike those engaged in logistics and maintenance, it is not easy for people to see if they do it well. So she hastened to thank her.

After the arrangement, it was almost noon, Ding Yuntong had just ordered a meal, and a telegram came, and Ding Yuntong, who was watching, immediately lost his appetite.

It was Yuan Shikai from North Korea, who said that North Korea was discussing with Japan the construction of a railroad from Seoul to Pusan at the southern tip of the peninsula.

Ding Yuntong paced back and forth anxiously, this is a new situation, in the previous life, it was not until the Russo-Japanese War that Japan hurriedly laid a light rail railway. This is very different from the previous life, is the relationship between Japan and the Min Concubine Group really close to this extent?

The construction of this railway is no joke, from the Japanese port to Busan, it can be said that the morning and the end of the day. Going north from the Gyeongbu Railway, the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula has already fallen into Japan's pocket.

Moreover, with this railway, Japan's military supply line did not need to be extended to the Incheon area (called Jemulpo at this time), and only needed to keep the Tsushima Strait, and there would be no problem with logistics support, which was extremely unfavorable to the future Sino-Japanese war.

Thinking about it, Ding Yuntong felt that Concubine Min's group would not be so sloppy, the history of her previous life had proved that Concubine Min was not really pro-Japanese, and she should still be hesitating at the moment. He immediately telegraphed back to Yuan Shikai, asking him to immediately make clear to the DPRK its solemn position, that is, China resolutely opposes this railway jihua, especially since this jihua is under the leadership of Japan.

Two days later, in the early morning of April 29, Yuan Shikai called back that North Korea had clearly rejected Japan's proposal. Ding Yuntong thought to himself: "As expected, after Concubine Min and the others weigh the pros and cons, they will also understand that this railway is a threat to their power, coupled with China's resolute opposition, they will push the boat with the flow, and they will definitely reject Japan on the pretext of China's opposition." In this way, the ball will be kicked to the Chinese side. ＂

Sure enough, on 2 May, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs received news that in order to enhance the relations of mutual trust and mutual benefit between China and Japan and to give explanations on some sensitive issues, the Japanese Government hoped to send a large delegation to pay a friendly visit to China.

Ding Yuntong sneered in his heart: "The diplomatic war has begun. ＂
