The Ming Empire is like a high-speed machine.

But one piece of news made everyone a little uneasy. Li Xiao was in the upper reaches of the Heilongjiang River, and a no-man's land was demarcated.

Not to mention foreigners and people from vassal states, even if the Ming people dared to cross the cordon, they would be shot.

In just two months, one hundred and ten ordinary Ming civilians who inadvertently crossed the cordon were shot and killed.

For a while, it made people panic. No one knows what is going on in that area, which is the size of three prefectures and counties.

I can only see that there are trains carrying things inside every day.

Catherine took Li Xiao's special train and first played in Xi'an for more than ten days. In the end, it is the ancient capital of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the charm of Chang'an City is very great.

Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Ci'en Temple, Qujiang Pond, Huashan Mountain, which is famous for its steepness, Lantian with beautiful jade, Tongguan, the first male pass in the world......

When she learned that these things were the remains of her ancestors thousands of years ago, she couldn't help but shake her head.

A country and a nation have survived for thousands of years, and there must be a foundation in this. It is no wonder that the Ming Dynasty, who used to look down on him, will rise to become the world hegemon in 20 years.

Compared with the Ming Dynasty, the history of Russia is somewhat inadequate.

Before being conquered by the Mongols, Russia was at the stage of tribal union.

Dissatisfaction with the history of her country did not affect Catherine's appetite.

The dignified queen of a country, following the appearance of an old farmer in Huayin, holding an old bowl with a big head, squatting under the wall and eating Zangzi noodles, saw Sun Chuanting shaking his head.

Who would have thought that this blonde woman would be the same as an ordinary Xi'an person at night. While snorting lamb skewers, he poured cold beer with "goo" and "goo".

Seeing the street lamp on the side of the road, Her Majesty the Empress will also look up like a child, and she will not give up until it is pitch black in front of her.

After entering Yumen Pass, Xi'an is one of the few cities with electricity. Catherine had a great curiosity about electricity.

I've only heard Dolgon say before that Daming has something called an electric light. Now I've seen it!

In the days when the autumn tiger was raging, a basin of ice was placed in front of the electric fan, which can be described as an artifact to relieve the heat.

Blowing an electric fan, slip around the watermelon. Catherine, who came from the bitter cold of Moscow, was almost reluctant to go.

However, people like Ekaterina will definitely not be swayed by appetite. Despite her love for this place in Xi'an, Catherine boarded the train and headed for the Ming Dynasty.

Along the way, I admired Hukou Waterfall and visited the Jin Temple.

Bang dang wandered around, and when he arrived in the capital, it was already autumn wind. The red leaves on the fragrant hills and the charm of the eight views of Yanjing made Catherine immediately fall in love with this remote villa.

The standard of meeting Catherine was quite high, and when she knew that the thin and tall old man in front of her was the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, equivalent to the prime minister of Russia, she was very enthusiastic to kiss Zhang Huangyan.

The old guy was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated, and was about to reprimand.

The tongue man next to him immediately grabbed the old guy who was about to get angry: "Lord Shousuke, this is Western etiquette.

Both parties kissed each other on the cheek as a sign of friendship. ”

"Nonsense! Men and women are not kissed, what kind of occasion is this, and the major event of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Hum! Zhang Huangyan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, so he didn't want this blonde fat woman to kiss his face.

The tongue man was reprimanded and did not dare to speak again, so he could only shrink back. Shousuke-sama is unhappy for a while, and it is likely to cause him to be unhappy for the rest of his life.

The old and spicy Brauchitsch was so anxious that he jumped to his feet when he saw Zhang Huangyan's appearance, he never thought that he would capsize in such a small matter. After all, he has been mixed in Daming, and he knows the tradition of Daming deeply.

Brauchitsch pulled Le Ekaterina, and said in his heart You don't seem to be so excited when you see the generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty, do you have bad thoughts about the thin old man in front of you?

Didn't dare to ask!

can only whisper to Catherine that this is quite rude behavior in Daming.

In the past, when there was an emperor in the Ming Dynasty, before the meeting of the heads of state of the two sides, they would discuss etiquette issues with each other.

China is a country of etiquette, and it does not attach great importance to etiquette.

However, there is no emperor in the Ming Dynasty now!

Generalissimo Li Xiao, who was in power, had already met with Catherine in Ili.

This time, when the two sides negotiated in advance, they all ignored such things as etiquette, which caused a major diplomatic accident.

"Something is wrong! It's rude! "Her Majesty Empress Catherine, pretending to be a grandson is also a woman who does not let her eyebrows go.

Seeing that Zhang Huangyan's face was not good, he immediately bowed down and apologized.

"Her Majesty has said it!" Zhang Huangyan arched his hand, and the empress apologized in person, and it was difficult for him to pursue it again.

When they arrived in the small conference room, the two sides sat down.

"Her Majesty the Empress has come from afar, and the journey has been smooth, but is there any slack reception for officials from all over the world?" Zhang Huangyan habitually said polite words.

Thanks to Li Xiao's invincible opponents all over the world, the foreign envoys and nobles who came to the Ming Dynasty all looked up with an upward gaze.

When I met Zhang Huangyan, it was completely a gesture of flattery.

The Ming Dynasty did not have an emperor, and Catherine, although she was a skinny camel, was also a Russian empress after all.

Although Zhang Huangyan is the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, he is also a courtier after all.

It should be said that the first person to meet with Catherine should be the Ming Emperor. But now ......, there is no emperor in the Ming Dynasty.

"Oh! The officials from all over the Ming Dynasty are so enthusiastic, you can see that I am fat. Daming's beer lamb skewers...... Hara whistle ......! ”

It seems that Her Majesty the Empress is very addicted to masturbating in Xi'an.

"Oh! Oh! ……！ Zhang Huangyan grinned dryly.

Old-fashioned people like him don't eat lamb skewers at all, and they rarely drink beer. What's more, as the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, how could he go to the stall to masturbate.

"There are also a lot of good things in the capital, and if Her Majesty the Empress likes it, she can let the officials of Honglu Temple take them around.

I believe that Her Majesty the Empress can be satisfied! "Zhang Huangyan really doesn't know what fun and delicious food is in the capital.

He's old, and he likes seclusion.

On weekdays, he either stays in Tongzhou, or works in this Xishan villa to meet officials.

"Oh! Thank you so much, your country is so welcoming.

Lord Shousuke, Your Excellency the Generalissimo of your country promises us. To build a railway from Ili to Moscow! ”

"I know about this, but the marshal is talking about going from Ili to St. Petersburg. Is there any misunderstanding in the middle? ”

"Oh! No! No, it's St. Petersburg, I remember wrong! Catherine's eyes lit up with joy.

The planned railway, which is being extended for several hundred kilometers, is further extended.

And more importantly, by doing so, it proves that the Ming really wanted to preserve the territory of Muscovy.

Although Ukraine and Belarus were lost in the last war, if they can get the support of the Ming Dynasty, it is likely that they will be able to reclaim these lands in the near future.

How embarrassed Napoleon was when he was defeated, but look at France now, which is a proper European power.

Frederick of Prussia had always been ambitious to complete the unification of Greater Germany. How weak Prussia was after the end of the last war.

With the support of the Ming Dynasty for two years, he will be able to start a war against Russia. Germany, which has advanced weapons of the Ming Dynasty, has burst out with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

The Russian army faced the Prussian army and was at an absolute disadvantage. Even if there is no Ming to join, as long as it takes a year or two, the Russian army will collapse.

The facts are in front of us, how important it is to get the support of the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming right supports Muscovy, then the recapture of Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Ukraine, the birthplace of the Slavs, is possible.

"Not only will we build railways together, but we will also support the construction, renovation and expansion of some industrial projects in Moscow.

Since Her Majesty the Empress has surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, then we are a family. The Ming will not only protect Russia, but also try to make the Russian people rich.

This is the Ming Empire, for the welfare of the vassal people. Zhang Huangyan looked at the Russian empress with a wolf-grandmother smile.

"Oh, my Lord Shousuke, thank you so much. I, as well as my Russia, will unconditionally serve the Ming as the Lord.

Use our blood and lives to verify our loyalty to the Ming Dynasty. When Catherine heard this, she was so excited that she swayed.

This time I came to Daming to show my loyalty to Daming. But I didn't expect to get the Central Asian Railway in Ili.

The railway connected the Ming Empire and Moscow!

This is already great news, but I didn't expect it to be just a dessert before the meal.

Zhang Huangyan directly served a big meal.

Not only to build railways, but also to invest in factories in Russia. Even listening to Zhang Huangyan's tone, it seems that it is possible to transfer technology.

This is amazing, you must know that Daming's technology is unique in today's world.

That is the existence at the top of the technology tree, and if some technology can be transferred to Russia, then Russia's national power will rise rapidly.

Unexpectedly, I didn't expect that this time I came to Daming, and I would get such a big benefit.

"If Russia can prove your loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, then you will get much more.

Someone will discuss specific matters with you. Your Majesty, just have some days of fun in Beijing. Once these treaties have been negotiated, you can go back to Russia. ”

Zhang Huangyan nodded, smiling at Catherine's allegiance.

"Thank you! I don't even know how to thank you. Ekaterina's tone was very sincere.

"There is no need to thank the old man, Her Majesty the Empress has to thank the Generalissimo."

"Yes! Yes! Thanks to Your Excellency the Generalissimo. Catherine nodded frequently.

For the next two months, Catherine only cared about eating, drinking, and having fun in the capital. Brauchitsch, who spoke fluent Daming official dialect, negotiated with people from various yamen in Daming all day long.

It is said that it is a negotiation, but in fact, it is to understand the arrangement of the Ming people.

Brauchitsch never dreamed that the Ming Dynasty would give Russia so many benefits.

It's just a matter of building the Central Asian Railway!

Among the projects that have been talked about is Aeroflot. Use airships to transport people and supplies throughout Europe.

The biggest advantage of the airship is that the airship landing field actually doesn't take up much space. This also greatly reduces the premise investment!

In Europe, where trains were not yet commonplace, such a thing as an airship was undoubtedly the best means of transportation. The market prospect is extremely broad!

Help improve the Russian locomotive plant, completely abandoning the steam locomotive and replacing it with a more powerful diesel locomotive.

The Ming Dynasty wanted to build a naval shipyard in St. Petersburg. The main thing is to help repair the Ming ships, and at the same time, it can also give Russia the ability to build advanced ironclad ships.

As for civilian projects, that's more. Russia used the timber and various minerals on the land in exchange for the capital and technology of the Ming Dynasty. Joint ventures have been built to produce a wide range of products, from match soap to airships.

What surprised Brauchitsch the most was that the Ming Dynasty actually wanted to build a power plant on the outskirts of Moscow.

Although the power plant is completely controlled by the Ming people, the electricity generated by the power plant can also support Moscow's electricity consumption.

In other words, at least the Kremlin has access to electricity.

God, this is the first capital in Europe to have access to electricity.

Paris, known as the capital of Europe, now has to light oil lamps and candles at night.

Moscow, electricity is available.

"Your Majesty, I think something is wrong. Why are the Ming people so good to us! Holding a long list of collaborative projects, Brauchitsch felt a little dizzy.

Dolgon has been in Russia for several years and has left some industrial foundation for Russia.

Daming's involvement this time can make Russia fully industrialized.

"There are so many projects! The Ming people even took out the power plant, which is not easy.

Brauchitsch! There is a saying in the Ming Dynasty that pie will not fall from the sky.

The Ming will not give us benefits in vain, and I guess they seem to want to make us the foothold of the Ming in Europe.

If you look at these items, military merit items account for eighty percent. Most of the remaining civilian projects are also for military projects.

The Ming Dynasty is too far away from Europe, and if you want to go to Europe to fight, you must have a place to stay. And we, Russia, are the place where we settled. ”

These days in the capital to eat, drink and be merry, Catherine cheeks are rosy, as if she is several years younger.

"War? The last war has only ended a year!

At the instigation of the Ming Dynasty, Austria-Hungary was fighting against the nascent Israel.

Why do you want to fight again! Could it be that the Ming people are all war maniacs? Brauchitsch listened to Catherine's words and found it incredulous.

"If you don't say it, I forgot, This time the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Israel went to war, and there was a shadow of the Ming Empire behind it.

Could it be that the Ming Dynasty marched into Europe for Israel? "Catherine suddenly remembered about Israel, she seemed to think of something.

"Israel? Tiny Israel? How could they get such attention from Daming? Brauchitsch was also a little puzzled, why the Ming Dynasty couldn't get along with a small country thousands of miles away.

"Nope! , the Ming Dynasty is not at odds with Israel, but with the Hebrew consortium.

Awesome! They were going to attack the Hebrew plutocracy. Ekaterina's eyes suddenly lit up.

Daming's choice of opponents is definitely not to affect Daming's interests. It's powerful!

Israel is not powerful, but the Hebrew plutocracy behind him is rich and powerful.

It seems that the Hebrew chaebol, who can call the wind and rain in Europe, has become the enemy in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty.

Da Ming, the layout of the next war in the reign!
