Chapter 375: Randy Sacrifices His Land
When Randy was in the Later Xia court, he was granted the privilege of worshipping the unknown, entering the court, going to the palace with a sword, and riding a horse in the Forbidden City.
When you arrive in Minxia, you don't pay attention to this, as the brother of the commander, you also enjoy the right to enter and leave the Minxia Palace freely.
Randy asked someone to report it, not to give Erjin face in front of outsiders, but simply because Erjin got married, and it was not good to suddenly break into Erjin's room if he had a sister-in-law.
Randy, Liu Ming, and Coco waited in the hall outside, this tea had been brewed several times, and the drink was weak, and the two catties had not yet come out.
Liu Ming buried Erjin with a smile, "It seems that Erjin has become the commander, and this shelf is also big." ”
Coco and Erjin have been in contact for a short time, they don't know Erjin, and they don't have the right to speak, but Randy is thoughtful.
"Something must have happened to Erjin, otherwise it can't be like this, if I don't come out again, I'm going to rush in and take a look."
"I'm fine."
There was a weak voice from inside.
Erjin was dressed in a gorgeous commander's uniform, and walked out with vague steps, his face haggard, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Xiao Guizi looked satisfied, calmly supported Erjin next to him, and put Erjin onto the chair.
"You're going to study national affairs? I didn't like this and went out to play. ”
Xiao Guizi hummed a song and left, and Randy looked up and down the two catties, not looking injured, but simply like staying up late.
Coco is more familiar with this situation, "Erjin, have you been playing games all night?" ”
"The only gaming helmet I know is in Randy's hands, so how can I have that chance?
Yuanyuan returned to the door yesterday, and it stands to reason that my son-in-law should go back with him.
But you see, the first year of junior high school began in the first year of Minxia, and I officially took office, and I got married in the second year of junior high school.
In the past few days of the New Year, as the commander-in-chief, I have been visiting everywhere and receiving envoys from various countries, and I have been busy all day with boring things, and Yuanyuan can only go home by himself.
By the way, Randy, Yuanyuan has been helping out in my family's shop in Xiangnan County, Shi Lanchong hasn't been back for a long time, and he wants to stay a few more days.
The bride can't stay at her mother-in-law's house when she returns home, and now she lives in Randy's empty house.
Yuan Yuan is not at home, and last night, two of my henchmen talked to me about Prime Minister Duan's arrogance and arrogance, trying to plot my position as the commander.
After they left, I didn't sleep all night, and that's it.
In fact, if he wants to be, let him be, I, the grand commander who can only nod and approve, is actually quite boring. ”
Once an honest and honest man uses the Spring and Autumn penmanship, everyone will believe it immediately.
Liu Ming laughed, "Now we will give you a great credit for Erjin, and I have also planned another credit for you."
As soon as these two great achievements are achieved, your prestige will immediately rise.
Prime Minister Duan has soldiers in his hands, and he doesn't dare to touch you, so you, the commander, will be in order. ”
…………
Two hours later, envoys from various countries and reporters from major newspapers were urgently summoned to the Minxia Palace.
Randy, the Duke of Alaska, said in public that the vassal king Nicholas II, to whom his lord was loyal, had passed away, and the heirs had all passed away, and the kingdom of Lucia, to which he was allegiated, no longer existed.
According to the "ancient practice", Alaska automatically became the territory directly under the suzerainty of Great Xia.
Lan has always respected tradition, so this time he made a special pilgrimage to Li Yuanhong, the ruler of the world, to express his allegiance to the Minxia government.
With the jade seal in his hand, Commander Lee accepted the map of Alaska and household registration information presented by Duke Lan, and appointed Randy as the governor of Alaska Province and the overseer of Alaska on the spot.
and announced that Randy had brokered the Alaska annex and awarded a medal.
Later, Randy's administrative assistant, Xiansheng, presented Prime Minister Duan with a report on Alaska's economic situation.
Although Alaska is bitterly cold, and because of the huge development investment, the current economy is unable to make ends meet, and still borrows 50,000 gold coins as a prepayment tax for the first half of the year.
All the onlookers present, including Prime Minister Duan, were stunned.
The newly established Sioux Federation has not yet been recognized by various countries, and there are no envoys in most of them.
The NKVD, who had been invited from Fort St. Subepertai, was invited to observe the ceremony in an emergency manner, and after expressing a strong protest, he walked away.
The area under their control was separated from the White Army by Kolchak, and now they could only protest.
The envoys and reporters of various countries were in a daze for a long time, and when they saw the jade seal in their hands, they suddenly remembered.
This has no real power in Minxia, and can only smirk and nod in favor of Prime Minister Duan, known as "Li Bodhisattva", in fact, he still has the name of the world ruler.
Is there an "ancient rule" that Randy followed? That's definitely there.
At least for the first eighty years of the establishment of the Later Xia court, when it still had control over the world, it had been carried out in this way.
As for the future, if the local lords of the vassal kingdom encounter a regime change like today, in the capacity of Randy, they will either join the Su Federation, or set themselves up as kings, at most get some mink or other specialties to pay tribute, and seek the approval of the central dynasty.
Now Randy not only did not sit on the ground and become king, but also surrendered the land, and even paid taxes.
Although the tax of 50,000 gold coins is insignificant to the Minxia government, it is a matter of face. Do you see how many of the 15 provincial overseers in the interior have paid taxes?
In fact, Alaska is included, and the tariffs saved by doing business with the magic city alone are more than 100,000 gold coins a year, and Randy has not lost anything.
The popularity of the Su Federation was gone, and the envoys of other countries congratulated Erjin with complicated feelings.
First of all, as a vassal state, they don't like this kind of thing.
However, the newly established Su Federation rebelled and openly announced that it would inherit the legacy of the New Kangfu Society and become the gravedigger of nobles and wealthy merchants from all over the world.
To the rulers of the Great Powers, this is a far more hateful thing than the traditional Randy.
The lesser of two evils, the matter of "Randy's dedication of land" was unanimously approved by the great powers.
The magnesium lights are flickering, the two catties are in the center, with Prime Minister Duan on the left and Randy on the right, and this group photo is expected to make the headlines of the world's major newspapers immediately.
Later historians have conducted in-depth research on this photograph.
In the photo, Randy smiled with contempt, and later generations who knew history knew that he was laughing at Suningning, who intended to repay his debts.
Prime Minister Duan laughed like crying, feeling helpless that he had no hope of ascending to the throne.
Erjin smiled brightly, the only fly in the ointment was a lack of energy, dark circles and bloodshot eyes, and a very haggard face.
The explanation of the official history is that at the beginning of the Minxia Dynasty, the great commander worked hard for state affairs and worked hard, which is the empirical evidence that the great commander Li worked hard for the country and the people.
Folk legends are very fragrant, what "Li Bodhisattva Yan History", "The Screams of Li Erjin in the Late Night of the Minxia Palace", "Memoirs of the Commander of the Guards of Li Dajie" and other forbidden books describe Erjin as a faint king who is extravagant.
This kind of attack on the personal virtues of the highly prestigious Li Datong was refuted by a large number of loyal supporters of Erjin in later generations, who held that it was groundless and must be smeared by reactionary forces abroad.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the descriptions in those forbidden books full of onomatopoeia are true, they can't erase the great achievements of Commander Li in opening up the territory and expanding the territory.
The Alaska annexation ceremony ended, and Minxia officially added a province.
Before the envoys and reporters of various countries could digest this major event, Erjin immediately threw out another bombshell news.
