Chapter 1135
"Your country took the initiative to attack the island of Malta, the overseas territory of our Ming Empire, which is a standard act of war.
Your Envoy has just said that we have not declared war.
You're right, for us Daming, this is called undeclared war.
How do you need a reasonable explanation for the Ming Dynasty? ”
Zheng Sen sat upright in his chair and pointed to the Israeli Prime Minister's special envoy Rabin across from him.
Rabin's face was extremely embarrassed, as an envoy of a country, not only did he have to come all the way to Daming to negotiate with Da Ming Dahonglu.
Moreover, there is not even a stool in the huge lobby.
This is a disgrace, a disgrace to Israel.
When he was a teenager, he once followed his father to Daming to do business, and Rabin knew that he was treated with prisoners, so he was almost shackled around his neck.
But there is no way, the situation is stronger than people.
The Hebrew army was completely defeated on the battlefield, and Eliezer Marom's detachment was completely destroyed.
And Constantinople, which was determined to win, was not able to take it.
The Hebrew army accumulated more than 63,000 killed, wounded, and captured. And that's just what happened in ten days!
Israel has never fought such a terrible war since its founding.
Rabin's visit to Daming this time was also a helpless move.
Although he was ready to be humiliated in his heart, he didn't expect Daming to humiliate a country's envoy so openly and disregarding diplomatic etiquette.
"Your Excellency Da Honglu, I have come thousands of miles away for peace, and Da Ming didn't even give me a seat, I'm afraid this is not in line with diplomatic etiquette.
I heard that the Ming Dynasty is known as the state of etiquette.
Now it looks, hehe......! ”
can be sent as a special envoy of Rothschild Jr., Rabin is naturally not an ordinary person.
He did not respond to Zheng Sen's accusations, but talked about diplomatic etiquette.
After all, everyone is mixed in this world, and sometimes they still need to give each other some face.
In diplomatic situations, this kind of face-saving behavior is called diplomatic etiquette.
Zheng Sen smiled "hey" and "hey", a country that has lost a battle and came to ask for help. The inside is all lost, and I want a bullshit face.
"We have a ballad in the Ming Dynasty, and the lyrics have been praised by His Excellency the Generalissimo of our country.
Two of these sentences are most appropriate now!
That is, friends come and have good wine.
If the jackal comes, there's a shotgun!
The State of Israel has declared war on the overseas territories of the Ming Empire, how is this behavior different from that of a wolf?
Because of your sneak attack, more than 7,800 Ming soldiers died on the spot.
Are you embarrassed to talk to me about diplomatic etiquette?
Let me tell you, if it weren't for my Excellency the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty, who would like peace. I can't bear to let the soldiers of the two countries lose their lives for the sake of petty profits, and my Daming Lion has already set foot on your capital city of Sevastopol.
Now, counting the officials. The whole Ming Dynasty is thinking about destroying your country and slaughtering your people.
Only I, the Generalissimo, have decided to let you go.
Rabin! Peace or war, the choice is not in your hands, but in the Ming Dynasty. ”
Zheng Sen glanced at Rabin with contempt, and in diplomatic situations, he usually said the most polite language and said the most shameless words.
Being able to speak happily like this today, Zheng Sen felt very happy.
Rabin's face was pale, and on the diplomatic occasion of the two countries, he was reprimanded like a third grandson.
He felt the humiliation, the humiliation carved into his bones.
I wanted to say that the attack on Malta and the attack on Constantinople were the reckless actions of some generals.
The principal officials of the State of Israel did not agree with them in doing so.
But now, Rabin is completely speechless.
This kind of excuse is too lame, and if it is said in public, it will make people doubt his IQ.
"I also came to Daming with peace in mind, which coincides with Your Excellency the Generalissimo.
But I still hope that I will be treated with the courtesy that a diplomat deserves in your country.
Instead of being guarded like prisoners as they are now. When I arrived at Honglu Temple, I didn't even have a seat.
Your Excellency, the Ming Dynasty is an empire after all. Such a huge empire should have the bearing he deserves.
You say not? ”
"Mr. Rabin! For the Ming Dynasty, it is only for a temporary ceasefire in peace negotiations.
Note! Now is the ceasefire, not the end of the war. They are still at war!
Although, we have not yet declared war. ”
"Yes! We did not declare war, which shows that peace is still to be expected. Rabin seemed to find the catch, and immediately followed.
"Da Ming is ready to declare war at any time, so he might as well tell you.
I, the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty, have issued a war mobilization order. The first batch of mobilized soldiers is 2 million! ”
Zheng Sen's expression was smug.
“……!”
Rabin was a little speechless!
This is the difference in strength between large and small countries, and people can easily mobilize two million people to fight on the front lines.
But the whole of Israel combined is less than four million people.
That's the equivalent of sending half of Israel's population into battle!
But the problem is that half of the population goes to war. So how will food, ammunition, and other military-industrial supplies in the rear be supplied?
Daming has no such problem, and the population of Daming has exceeded 400 million. The absolute most populous country in the world!
Supplying an army of two million men is not a big deal for them.
"Your Excellency, please understand Israel's desire for peace. And, convey Israel's sentiments to His Excellency the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty.
I came to Daming for the peace of the two countries. For the sake of the happiness of thousands of families in both countries, please understand this sentiment.
Our country is absolutely responsible for the causes of the war. For this reason, the State of Israel is willing to give compensation to the Ming Empire.
That's all for today, we are going to have a peace dinner at our residence, and we invite Mr. Da Honglu to come. ”
Rabin had been to Daming when he was very young, and he knew that Daming was used to talking about things at the wine table.
Eating and drinking at this time may be more important than negotiating in such a formal setting.
"This official will see if there is time, let's talk about it!" Zheng Sen glanced at Rabin disdainfully.
"Oh, and the greetings of Mr. Ben-Gurion and Mr. Rothschild Jr. have not yet been conveyed."
Rabin looked at Zheng Sen with a smile.
When Rothschild Jr. is mentioned, the tone is slightly heavier.
Zheng Sen glanced at Rabin!
The Hebrews, who were known for their intelligence, were not ordinary.
When Zheng Sen was in London, he dealt with the Rothschilds a lot.
Of course, there is no shortage of deals with the Rothschilds.
After all, if you want to be a stable official, you can't do it without money.
In the matter of making money, Zheng Sen also had to admit that the Rothschilds were more professional.
"Alright! I'll be at the banquet in the evening. Zheng Sen nodded, which was regarded as giving Rabin, or the Rothschild family, a face.
"Big brother, we didn't want to give the Hebrews a dismount, why did you agree to attend their banquet?"
A servant behind him asked in a low voice.
Zheng Sen glanced at this sixth brother Zheng Shimo helplessly, the Zheng family is really down now, and there is such a fool.
If it weren't for his father to take him with him, Zheng Sen wouldn't have looked at him.
I have to say that in terms of family inheritance, the Zheng family is much worse than other Ming families.
Look at other historians, the children of the family are endless.
Every child can put down roots in the hardest places, just like that Shi Danai.
After four years of hard work in the Western Regions, the railway from Hami to Ili was laid.
In four years, I haven't been home once. The death of his wife and the serious illness of his son have all returned to the mainland once.
The most rare thing is that he has a huge amount of power in his hands, but he has not used his power to embezzle a copper brother.
He didn't use the power in his hands to promote his own family.
Look at the Zheng family again, groups of gentlemen emerge in endlessly. actually came out of a fool like Zheng Mang, and actually went to provoke the Li family.
Who is Li Lin!
That is the only heir of the Great Shuai, the existence of the Ming Empire above 10,000 people.
Such a prince, he also dared to tease.
Zheng Mang disappeared, and neither the Zheng family nor the Ming people gave up looking for his whereabouts.
Zheng Sen had already made up his mind that the first time he found Zheng Mang, he must cut this fool's body into pieces with a thousand knives before he was willing.
"Big brother!" Zheng Shimo didn't seem to see the face of his eldest brother Tieqing, and still pulled Zheng Sen's robe and asked.
"Idiot!" Zheng Sen scolded viciously, turned around and walked to the study.
Among the many younger brothers, only one Tagawa Nanazaemon is quite capable.
Unfortunately, he is now locked up in the Tokugawa family's prison.
Zheng Sen didn't save it, and he didn't dare to save it.
If Tagawa Nanazaemon wasn't his younger brother Zheng Sen, I'm afraid his bones would be cold now.
After sitting in the office for an afternoon, Zheng Sen was thinking about how the future of the Zheng family would be arranged.
The Ming Dynasty had become a vast empire, and it had not only wiped out its fierce neighbors to the north.
Through last year's rebellion, he also controlled the southwest of the Great Southwest that successive Central Plains dynasties were unable to control.
Today, inside the 100,000 mountains. Those cave masters and leaders who have been doing their own things for thousands of years have also submitted to the officials sent by the Ming Dynasty to express their obedience to the rule of the imperial court.
Thousands of years later, the Ming Dynasty finally formed the traditional and non-traditional territories into a whole.
Southwest! Northwest, Western Regions!
These are not the ancestral residences of the Han people, but now they are firmly controlled by the Ming Dynasty.
The reclamation system has well controlled the vast Western Regions.
Zheng Sen had to admire Li Xiao's ruthlessness, and in the first year of the raid on the Western Regions, he began to purge the Jungar Mongols.
Now, the Dzungar Mongols have completely become a place name.
The Vigurs are now as well-behaved as sheep.
Their children study in the primary school run by the Ming Dynasty, learning Chinese characters and reading Chinese.
It is believed that it will not be long before the descendants of the Weiwuer people will be assimilated by the broad and profound Han culture.
The Zheng family's life in the southeast was not easy, and the Ming court's ability to rule the south was still relatively poor.
In this way, the Zheng family will maintain a certain amount of power on the southeast coast.
At that time, the situation was unstable, there were many maladministrations at home, and there were Wu Sangui making trouble in the open and secretly abroad.
There are also Mongols in the northwest!
At that time, Li Xiao's hope for the Zheng family was not to rebel.
But now it's completely changed!
India has been divided into more than 70 countries, and has completely become a source of raw materials and a dumping ground for manufactured products.
The pressure of foreign wars was not so great, and Ao Ye was only more than 80,000 people, and he was able to kill the 450,000 Poles.
Huge military industry, cutting-edge military technology. Let the Ming army become more and more difficult to defeat.
And Li Xiao's cunning also surprised Zheng Sen!
Knowing that future sea supremacy depends on air supremacy, he took advantage of the fact that other countries did not know the power of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft, and riveted his efforts to sell warships.
On these warships, there are very few anti-aircraft guns.
A battleship with more than seventy guns on one side did not have a single anti-aircraft gun.
Cunning! It's really cunning!
Zheng Sen could think of the despair of those Hebrew sailors in the face of the swarming planes with his eyes closed.
Two Yangtze River bridges have already been built on the Yangtze River, and the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge will be completed by next year at the latest.
With the arrival of the trains, the railroad is changing everything in the South at a rapid pace.
In Fujian, where our ancestors have been engaged in agriculture and business for generations, smoking factories have also appeared. Many peasant children threw away their hoes and entered the factories to work as workers.
Zheng Senqing clearly understood that Li Xiao's character would not allow the Zheng family to maintain a special status in the southeast for a long time.
And if it continues to develop like this, the Zheng family will not have the strength to compete with the imperial court.
So what about the Zheng family?
Where is the future of the Zheng family?
Zheng Sen spread out the map and looked carefully, seeing the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea, and even the South China Sea from the Bohai Bay.
He found that almost all the land was planted with flags by the Ming court.
There is even a fleet that has already chopped the waves and rushed to the distant American continent.
It is believed that it will not be long before the flag of the Ming Dynasty will be planted on the American continent.
There really isn't, there's really no place left for the Zheng family.
What awaits the Zheng family can only be a gradual decline, and finally become an extremely ordinary broken settlement.
Although he was a disciple of Li Xiao, Zheng Sen became more and more confused about what this teacher was thinking.
It's obvious that he has made a promise, but he just doesn't want to be interested in the position in the Forbidden City.
changed to another person, and couldn't wait to find someone to support him, and then sat on the dragon chair in the bright light.
But Li Xiao was unmoved, and even Zhang Huangyan, who vigorously advocated Li Xiao's accession to the throne, was deposed by Li Xiao.
It's really deposed, not pretended.
Zhang Huangyan has completely left the center of power in the Ming Dynasty, and his influence on the Ming political arena is already minimal.
It was not until it was dark that the attendant carefully reported, "My lord, the Hebrew feast has been prepared."
Adults only!
Rabin, the envoy of the State of Israel, has personally come to invite you to the banquet. ”
"Hmm!" Zheng Sen woke up from his reverie, and before he knew it, it was getting dark.
Zheng Sen shook his head helplessly, the future of the Ming Dynasty is promising, but can the Zheng family really only choose to be lonely in glory?
After changing his clothes, when he walked to the Daming of Honglu Temple, he looked at Rabin with a smile on his face and was waiting for him.
