Listening to Zhuge Weidao's words, Nicholas I was also confused: if the United States seeks peace or not, what is the matter with Emperor Sekimoto? This emperor did not declare war on the United States, and the 10 billion silver dollars will definitely not have the share of this emperor, and now that he has declared war on the United States, he will definitely not have a chance to share the money. So why did Ben the Great have a drink to celebrate?

Thinking of this, Nicholas I, who was having dinner with Zhuge Weidao and Natalie, greeted his attendant with a smile: "Take vodka...... I'm going to have a drink with Count Zhuge ! ”

Zhuge Weidao is now a great uncle, and there are really people in the palace who are good knights! Although Empress Dowager Zheng has no real power, on the issue of knighthood, her words are still useful...... Of course, credit is still necessary! But if there is no one in the palace, this lord will not be promoted so quickly, and it is difficult to "seal".

According to Zhuge for the Tao, it is sooner or later to seal a marquis. However, in order to reflect the preciousness of the title, the new Ming Dynasty generally does not take a step very quickly, usually the baron is first sealed, and then slowly raised one level at a time. From the baron to the marquis, it usually takes ten or eight years.

However, Zhuge is favored by the Queen Mother, and of course the title rises quickly. It didn't take long for him to change from a Daxing man to a Daxing Bo...... When a comprehensive peace was formally reached, the Marquis of Daxing became the emperor. As for the "great feudal lords" of Guangyang County, Jiguo Gong, Guangyang County King and Ji King, it is also a matter of time before it is a matter of time.

In the future, the Zhuge family will be a double king!

When Zhuge was happy for the Tao, the vodka had already been served. Not everyone has it, Natalie, who is pregnant, still substitutes tea for wine, the empress of Nicholas I, Alexandra from Prussia. Fiorovna (that is the Friedrich. William III's daughter, born Charlotte) and Elena Mikhail's wife. Pavrovna (Princess Charlotte of Württemberg) also drank wine, and Zhuge Weidao, Nikolai, Mikhail and other old men all served vodka.

After two glasses of vodka, the atmosphere at the dinner scene suddenly became a lot hotter - so hot that Zhuge Weidao's face turned red!

The amount of alcohol that Nikolai and Mikhail drank was much better than that of Zhuge Weidao...... Can you call it Maozi if you can't drink it? The two of them looked at Zhuge Weidao and became drunk, and they didn't continue to toast, but sang and began to inquire about the mantra after drinking.

"Daozi," Archduke Mikhail began to say with a smile, "is the victory over the United States really so worthy of joy?" ”

"Of course!" Zhuge Weidao said with a smile, "The United States is our main enemy...... Our two countries! If the United States is allowed to rise completely, then the future world will be Anglo-Saxon and Jewish, and our two countries will be firmly suppressed by the Anglo-Saxon alliance, and life will not be easy! ”

Nicholas I and Mikhail were confused, looked at each other, and then at Natalie, who was drinking tea with a sad face—she couldn't drink, her mouth was about to burst out!

Natalie still noticed the eyes of the two brothers, and immediately understood what they meant, so she explained with a smile: "On the Ming side, people call the native English-speaking people Anglo-Saxons, and regard them as the biggest obstacle to the Ming Dynasty's leadership of the world. And among them, the Anglo-Saxon country with its vast, fertile, warm land and long coastline is the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty! ”

Nicholas I was always a little shocked when he heard this: the United States is not half the size of the Rakshasa Empire under the rule of the Emperor, how can it be the biggest threat? That's the size of a rakshasa......

Natalie seemed to see through the Tsar's brother's thoughts, and explained with a smile: "On the Ming side, people value the effective land area...... That is, the area of the country that is suitable for people to live and develop. Almost all of the territories of the United States of America are effective land areas, and they are rich in resources and fertile land, which can fully accommodate more than 1 billion people. Although Rakshasa is extremely vast, most of the land is frozen soil, and the value of development and utilization is not high. The real effective land area is only one or two million square kilometers, and it is ...... There is no ice-free port suitable for the development of industry. The relatively good Haikou Black Sea was blocked by the Ottoman Turkish Empire, so the Black Sea coast is also difficult to develop. ”

Nikolai suddenly looked at Zhuge Weidao and asked word by word: "That...... If the Rakshasa Empire takes Constantinople, opens up the mouth of the Black Sea, and becomes a great power with a warm water port, will it be able to compare with the United States of America? ”

Zhuge Weidao laughed, waved his hand and said, "We don't care about Constantinople and the Turkic Straits, and we don't care about the Balkans. And now the Ottoman Empire is still at war with us. So...... Go ahead and get it! However, the Ottoman Empire should keep the peninsula of Asia Minor, except for the coastal part of the Tatar Strait and the Armenian plateau...... In the future, the Ottoman Empire was supposed to exist as a neutral buffer state between the Arab Empire and the Rakshasa Empire. ”

Zhuge Weidao was just blushing, and he wasn't really drunk with two glasses of vodka, his current thinking is still very clear, at least he understands his purpose for coming to Rakshasa Country. He didn't come all the way to Nicholas I for a drink - he didn't come with Natalie, he came with the main force of the entire Atlantic Fleet!

This effect can be more deterrent than the circumnavigation of the US Great White Fleet in history, after all, the Ming Navy has just won the world's sea power!

Now Zhuge Weidao is visiting all over the coast of Europe with such a huge fleet of victors, just to tell all European countries: the Ming Dynasty has arrived, don't move, you will be beaten if you move!

Although Zhuge Weidao can't take the Atlantic Fleet to destroy anyone's country - the navy can't go ashore! But it is possible to completely block the maritime trade of any country!

For any industrialized country, being locked up in maritime trade is tantamount to losing its future. This is also the reason why the United States of America is willing to pay an astronomical amount of reparations, and also demands peace. Otherwise, not to mention that international trade cannot be done, advanced technology cannot be introduced, and even the boundless fertile land of the United States cannot be used to attract European immigrants!

It is up to the Americans to give birth to themselves, not to mention the 1 billion people, and the 100 million people may have to be born and raised slowly for 100 years...... Therefore, in order not to be completely blocked by the Ming Dynasty, the United States has to admit compensation and defeat by gritting its teeth.

Of course, Rakshasa is not America. The Rakshasa Empire had a traditional friendship with the Ming Dynasty, and did not respond to the call of the British and Napoleon II to "fight against the Yellow Peril", and because of its close relationship with the Bourbon dynasty, it has always been seriously opposed to Napoleon II - this confrontation has restrained most of the power of the European continent, so that the Anglo-Saxons can only come to a "father-son state", and the result is a crushing defeat.

Therefore, the Rakshasa Empire contributed to the victory of the Ming Dynasty. With a contribution, of course, you can divide the fertilizer. And the Ottoman Turkish Empire, of course, had to accept punishment because it was on the side of the British!

And it will come at a very heavy cost...... Who made its two sworn enemies, Rakshasa and Arabia, good helpers on the side of the Ming Dynasty? Of course, the fat eaten by the rakshasas and the Arabs had to be cut off from the Uthmans!

Nikolai had already calculated it at this time, nodded and said, "Okay...... Just leave the Ottoman Empire in one breath! But...... I have one more condition! ”

"On what terms?"

Nicholas I laughed and said, "When I take Constantinople, my empire will no longer be a rakshasa, but Rome...... Then I will be the Emperor of the Roman Empire! ”
