Chapter 273: Winter Leisure (5)
Even if Luo Ming usurped power and became a "great general", opened the shogunate by himself, and used his own people to manage the affairs of the country, completely turning the grand duke into a puppet......
He has made so many rebellious moves, but as long as he is willing to retain the position of Grand Duke and continues to honor the church of the goddess of spring water to a certain extent, I believe that the goddess of spring water, her church, and the remnants of the royal family will not fight with him, and may even turn to assist him to level the rebellious ministers and thieves in the world and rebuild a unified country.
Although he also has bad intentions, it seems that he is the only powerful faction in the entire principality who is willing to help, and the rest of the local princes basically hope that the country will be divided for a long time.
The name of this only candidate is really heavy, as precious as ten thousand taels of gold.
At the beginning, Yuan Shikai relied on public opinion propaganda to make the great powers and the powerful factions in China think that "Yuan must clean up the mess", so that the Manchu government could rest assured that he would hand over power to him, and the great powers would give him loans with confidence, and he took advantage of this to successfully seize the post of president of the Republic of China, taking it all and becoming a big winner.
Then, the next step is to learn from the Qin State after a few years of farming.
The Qin Dynasty only had a militaristic farming and warfare system, and had some advantages in military technology, but in the final analysis, both sides used cold weapons.
And Luo Ming has gunpowder and cannons, a method to increase the yield of the field, and an unfathomable great being who is at least stronger than the goddess of spring water to help, so that the technology generation gap is formed in all aspects.
Just like the Japanese Army in World War II, in the eyes of military historians, it was an elite "World War I" army, and that little bit of thin-skinned pee-weed tanks were pulled to the European theater, and even Italy might be able to torture them with blood.
However, the Kuomintang was weaker, and at first there were only a few hundred modern artillery pieces in the whole country, many of which were still hidden in the hands of the warlords and refused to use them—while the total number of artillery pieces of the Japanese army was about two or three thousand, so that the most elite troops of the Kuomintang could be easily blown up and routed, and thousands of people were killed and wounded.
Although Lomin's cannon was rudimentary, perhaps at the level of the 18th century, there was no artillery on his enemy's side at all, and the gap would only be wider, not smaller.
A certain celebrity once said, "Gone is the history of imperialism being able to conquer a country and a nation by erecting a few cannons in the East!", that is, such an era once existed.
Although there is fighting spirit and magic in this world, will there be a lack of masters in their own forces?
Moreover, this Qin State not only has the advantage of technology generation, but also has the righteous name of "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes", and there is no real power of the Grand Duke, whose reputation is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in this thousand-year rule, many people and forces will come to defect, and it is much easier to recruit and surrender to rebels, and there will be no shortage of internal responses anywhere in the country.
This is the so-called "once you learn how to operate, you can win just by running over it...... Although there is a slight possibility of capsizing in the gutter, that possibility is also very small.
Reality is not a literary and artistic work, and if you set up a death flag, you will definitely die, and it will not exist no matter where it is.
And after the war ended, Luo Ming's fame, which leveled the world, reached the extreme. At this time, push the puppet Grand Duke to let go...... Wait, Zen doesn't seem to have a good reputation for this thing!
Luo Ming doesn't care about the reputation itself, but he cares about the role of reputation - bad reputation, which can make people all over the world spurn him, always thinking about defeating him, a national thief, and often rebelling and posting leaflets.
When the limit of his good reputation is reached, everyone can worship him and regard him as a great leader, and even if the snow is black, some people will come out to prove its scientific truth, some people will spontaneously run to dye the snow, some people will revise the book records, and some people will angrily scold why this year's snow is white and the leader can't get by, as if last year's snow was black...... It's a whole different story.
If there is already a female archduke, why can't there be another female archduke?
All it takes is to convince Grant to put up with such a nominal wife.
Oh, thinking about it like this, he found that his festival was almost falling to the ground, Luo Ming quickly picked up this crystal clear treasure from the ground, wiped it clean and put it in his pocket.
As for the goddess of spring water, if she is not interested, she will also have her own Black Sun Highness to teach her to be a god. With the tens of millions of people in the entire principality as the foundation of the human world, it is probably enough to support His Highness to exert the power of medium divine power - after all, His Highness's realm is originally high, and there is no need to work hard to break through like the goddess of spring water.
In the face of this plan, even Aya thought about it for a while, and then it was extremely explicit to encourage him to carry it out.
"This is simply the 'formula to victory', if I refine it, the success rate should be more than 50% - there is a 50% chance of getting a country, I'm afraid this is one of the few huge gambles in the history of the world, but the odds of winning are still very high - do you want to gamble?
As long as you say 'yes' now, then I will immediately report this plan to His Highness, and His Highness's divine wisdom will calculate and improve it, and prepare in advance, maybe I will be six or seven percent sure!"
Aya said this, almost like a demon tempting him into hell. It's rare to see such a cute and helpful demon, and no one will say no......
However, Luo Ming still firmly refused—people don't offend me, I don't offend people—at least for humans who aren't monsters, he's still moral.
Maybe it's a little pedantic, or maybe it's hypocrisy, but this is also his code of conduct - after that killing, he pushed the jackals to create panic, and he also reluctantly convinced himself of the reason that "those who evade taxes are sinners, and they are not my people, and it is none of my business whether they live or die".
Although he keenly felt that Her Royal Highness the princess was definitely not an innocent or kind little girl, and her scheming was several points better than Charlotte's, she had not disadvantaged herself so far, and had worked happily with him many times......
If she is not good for herself, she can turn her face with confidence, but if she calculates the other party first, she can still avoid it - after all, this is not as simple as a few hundred gold coins, if it is just a loss of a few hundred gold coins, it is really nothing to her, then Luo Ming can try to calculate.
However, this is a major event that affects thousands of lives and the entire country.
