Chapter 1021
Li Xiu had never seen an aircraft carrier, and naturally he would not know the word naval aviation.
But Li Xiao knew that the big ships and huge guns were just a microcosm of an era. With the development of aviation technology, it will inevitably be abandoned by the times.
This is the history of the evolution of human weapons, from the most primitive javelins to bows and arrows, guns, artillery, to the current airplanes and future missiles, all follow the same truth.
That's if I can beat you, you can't hit me.
Zero casualties has always been something that the commander-in-chief of the army has strongly pursued.
"This thing can fly faster than an airship?" Looking at the drawings on the table, Li Xiu was a little unconvinced.
"This thing has been successfully tested at the secret base in Liaodong, but there is still some time before it is on board.
The key problem is that pilots are hard to find. Only from among the existing airship pilots can be selected! Li Xiao sighed, the pilot is also known as the golden man.
For every qualified pilot, the amount of money spent is gold equivalent to his weight.
However, Daming has taken a big advantage in this, that is, for Daming, oil is not a big problem.
Because in the world, only Daming is currently extracting oil and refining oil. Even Britain, the cradle of industrial civilization, is still in the age of the steam engine.
It was not the internal combustion engine that drove their cargo ships and ships, but the much older steam engine.
However, Li Xiao believed that with the ability of the British, it was only a matter of time before the internal combustion engine was developed.
In fact, even the British can't make an internal combustion engine. Li Xiao is also ready to sell the internal combustion engine to the food, for the simple reason that it is simple.
The oil fields in the Middle East are in the hands of the Ming Dynasty, and for the Middle East oil fields, 200,000 Ming Marines. There are also 300,000 servant armies that have never left the Middle East.
You can't use coal to power an internal combustion engine, and if you want to use oil, you'll have to trade with Daming.
Now the Ming silver coin is almost the world's common currency, but the status of the silver coin is not yet solid.
Li Xiao was wondering whether to buy the internal combustion engine. And then sell the internal combustion engine technology as well, as long as you build the internal combustion engine, you can't do without oil.
Can't do without oil, Lao Tzu tied the Daming silver coin to oil. As long as you want to buy oil, you have to use Daming silver coins.
In this way, in the future, as long as the Ming Dynasty continues to make money, he will be able to exchange any materials from all over the world.
What a pattern! Why don't you study hard?
I can't control the coal thing. There are so many coal mines all over the world!
Sometimes, it's not a good thing to cover up good things and not give them to others.
Li Xiu pondered the drawings for a long time, and saw the eldest brother wandering out of the world behind the chair. After a while, I couldn't bear it anymore and knocked on the table.
"Big brother, I said I wanted to go to the Liaodong base to have a look."
"Damn, interrupt my train of thought. Don't go to the Liaodong base, the level of secrecy there is too high. It's not appropriate for you to go!
In order not to let people know the secret of the plane, I relocated all the people from the six counties in that area.
Even 300 kilometers away in Yanbian, I drove the North Koreans across the Tumen River.
paid such a big price, just to let people know as much as possible that Daming has such a powerful thing.
When you go back now, the most important thing is to control the oil fields in the Middle East. As for the affairs of Europe, let Zheng Sen do it.
We just said that spend some money and let them mess up on their own.
I'll give you an answer, we will have to fight this battle with the European Jewish plutocracy sooner or later. This is a struggle for world leadership, and only by truly defeating them can we completely conquer the world.
The Ming Empire and the Ming people can truly sit back and relax. β
"No!" When he came, he was furious, and when he left, he didn't have a temper at all.
Now Li Xiu has set up his home in Cairo, as an outpost of the Ming Dynasty, the marines and navy are staring at the European countries.
The characteristics of Europe are very distinct, that is, scattered!
Since the collapse of the Roman Empire, Europe has not been united. Dozens of countries, large and small, together, even if there are one or two powerful ones, cannot truly unify Europe.
This gave Da Ming a chance to break through, Li Xiao was holding a carrot in his hand, and Li Xiu was carrying a big stick in his hand.
The obedient will be given a carrot, and the disobedient will be a stick. Two treatments to choose freely!
After Zheng Sen got Li Xiao's affirmation, he continued to throw off his arms and work hard.
The streets of Paris were crowded all day, and Jean Arnaud, the deputy, summed up four major demands. A group of young people who were deceived into being enthusiastic really took to the streets with these four major demands.
Inside the palace, Napoleon heard the report of the London police chief, and was so angry that his head smoked, but he couldn't do anything.
Stand on the terrace of Fontainebleau and look out in the direction of the Champs-ΓlysΓ©es. Even though I can't see it, I can still think of the crowds of people and the smoke billowing out.
According to the police chief's report, those who had marched had begun to smash shops on both sides of the street.
Anyone who openly disagrees with the four demands will be persecuted by them. Until the four major demands are recognized!
Even last night, when there were no barricades on the streets in the middle of the night, a carriage driver who was carrying goods was beaten by those mobs.
The coachman had broken several ribs, but his life was still not in danger. It's just a pity that his carriage was smashed by those thugs.
The pack horse pulling the cart was also stabbed to death with a knife by the mobsters.
Napoleon could have imagined how difficult it would be for an ordinary Parisian citizen to buy a carriage and a pack horse.
Overnight, this hapless guy was almost bankrupt.
Paris!
This French heart has suffered from a serious heart attack.
If the matter in Paris is not resolved as soon as possible, it is likely that the life of the entire French Empire will be at risk. This is something that Napoleon did not want to see and was not allowed to see.
"Or are you worried about the things in Paris?" Empress Josephine walked over and gently put her arms around Napoleon's back.
"Yes! Worry about Paris.
Now Paris is in chaos like this, almost all industries are paralyzed. The thugs blocked the roads and dragged hundreds of thousands of people into the streets.
The police in Paris have been overwhelmed, and the whole of Paris has been detained. And I, the Emperor of the French Empire. He could only hide in Fontainebleau and not return to Paris.
Paris! It's not Paris anymore when I came back from Elba, I don't know when Paris has changed.
It's almost unrecognizable! Napoleon let out a long sigh, having once believed that his control over France was solid.
But today, it seems like a joke.
"There's no way, then send troops. Send in the army to suppress these rioters.
The people have no opinions, they will only be used and coerced by people with ulterior motives. Just let them see that we dare to use force, and the crowd will soon be scattered.
I heard that such a thing happened in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty also solved it in this way. β
Napoleon sighed, women, after all, have long hair and short knowledge. Daming can do this, but France can't.
The reason is that the Ming Dynasty is too powerful, and no country in the world dares to provoke the Ming Empire. And behind the chaos in France is the former ally of the Ming Empire.
"No! Dear Josephine!
If we use the military, maybe the rioters will fight us in the streets.
The Ming warships were anchored in the harbor of Caen, and they would bring their weapons to Paris as quickly as they needed to. Perhaps, they have already been delivered.
Just wait for the bloody clashes to be distributed to the students who took to the streets to make trouble.
The whole thing will be portrayed in the newspapers as an army against unarmed ordinary people. The face of our government will be disgraced in an instant.
And this will provoke a larger-scale revolt, and it is even likely to sweep the whole country. At that point, we really can't do anything about it.
Besides, if you use the army...... Who knows what the people in the army think.
If there is a real defection, it is likely that it will also be a chain reaction.
If all my conjectures come true, then you and I will either flee or be caught and hanged by the rebels. Napoleon looked at his queen and smiled helplessly.
"Da Ming? Are you saying that there is a Ming Dynasty behind this matter? Aren't they our allies? Josephine looked at Napoleon in astonishment.
"Josephine, there is no eternal friendship in this world, only eternal interests. We and the Ming are allies, and that's because we had common interests in the past.
But now! Because of the Crimean affair, we have become enemies. The so-called allies are only superficial allies. Napoleon shook his head with a wry smile.
In order to gain the support of the Hebrew consortium, Napoleon chose to support Israel.
Originally, Napoleon thought that with the support of the Hebrew consortium, he would be able to consolidate his power even more.
Unexpectedly, the Ming Empire actually found another way. Encourage those students to come out and make trouble, why didn't you think of it?
That's right, the Jewish Consortium.
Didn't Da Ming spend money and hire those people to march on the streets? Then you can do it yourself, and let the Hebrew consortium pay for some thugs.
If the thugs and the marchers were to fight, they would have been justified in sending force to stop the chaos in Paris.
Thinking of this, Napoleon was greatly excited.
"Contact Mr. Rothfield for me at once, I want to see him." Napoleon shouted loudly to the secretary outside.
Here, Zheng Sen stood on the roof of the building, watching the surging crowd of people marching below.
"Good job, let's make trouble, just keep it like this." Zheng Sen let out a smug laugh.
"Dashuai specially called to praise us for doing a good job! This time, Napoleon had to be hemorrhaged. Nanaemon Tagawa was also excited, as it was the first time he had done something he was so proud of.
"Dashuai called and said that he could sell internal combustion engines in Europe. If friendly countries like Italy and Austria-Hungary were to be friendly, we could even transfer the technology of the internal combustion engine.
Other than that!
The marshal had already approved Spain's contract for two battleships, and the British had come to ask. Can we sell them warships? β
"Huh! Soon, the Prussians and the French will also come to buy it. Anyway, the marshal approved it, as long as you take the money, you can say anything. β
"This kind of thing is also sold, did something happen to Daming?" Tagawa Nanazaemon asked with some concern.
"Da Ming doesn't have any problems, it is estimated that Da Shuai is in the next big game. Let's just follow the baton of the commander.
Anyway, it's also a matter of making money, and if you don't make money, you won't make it in vain!
Besides, the total tonnage of the Ming Navy is sufficient. Even if they are sold to these countries, their naval power will not be comparable to that of the Great Ming Box. β
"Alright!
How will we continue to do so in the future? I'm afraid that Paris won't be able to hold out after a long time.
After all, there was no work for a long time. Those at the bottom won't be able to eat! β
"People at the bottom are better off not having to eat, and when people are hungry, they are more likely to be agitated. Then we will tell them that it is the exploitation of the Hebrews that makes them so poor.
It was the oppression of the Hebrews that kept them from eating. The Hebrews siphoned off the dividends of the war, but let ordinary French men go to war and suffer the casualties of war.
Guess what would have happened if you had such agitation? β
Zheng Sen looked at Tagawa Nanazaemon with a wicked smile!
"Those at the bottom will go crazy against the Hebrews, after all, most of the Hebrews live in rich areas. And, in general, the Hebrews were much richer than the average Frenchman.
You see, the banks, the shops, the factories...... Most of them were Hebrews.
Even in restaurants, many are Hebrew-owned. β
Tagawa Nanazaemon shuddered when he heard Zheng Sen's words.
Those at the bottom are not reasonable, they only believe in violence. Now Paris is again a place where there is no order and no law, and the Hebrews will die ugly, ugly, ugly.
"They will come out and rob the Hebrews of their factories, their banks, their shops, their homes! Hebrews were hacked, stabbed, burned, and thrown to death by men, women, and children...... All kinds of deaths.
Since the Hebrews had their own homeland, they would flee to Israel in droves. β
"Aren't we helping Israel?" Tagawa Nanazaemon was a little puzzled.
So what, it would be easier to gather the Hebrews together and catch them all.
Don't forget, Crimea is a peninsula. If the Ming Dynasty attacks Crimea one day, do you think that with the strength of the Ming Navy, there is still a possibility for them to escape? β
"Big brother, don't rush to kill them all. The Hebrews competed with us, but they also had many good people. β
"There is no way, not all the bad people in this world are killed, and the good people also account for a large proportion.
All right! Don't talk about that, you go tell the people below.
Only those who rush to the front, beat up the police, and attack the police station will get the money. As Zheng Sen spoke, a mob had just smashed the window of a store.
A crowd of people swarmed in, and in a short time, someone ran out with all sorts of things.
The people who went in later really had nothing to take, and even the clothes racks were carried out. A good store was swept away in almost ten minutes.
