In the early morning of April 15, the 34th year of Taiping.

On the west coast of the Daqin Sea and around the island of Cyprus, a large number of ships appeared on the sea outside the ports of Haifa, Beirut, and Limassol.

There are quite a few cruisers of all kinds, as well as a larger number of transports and passenger ships of all kinds.

All ships fly the naval flag of the Ming Dynasty.

In the past month or so, Daming has prepared more than 500 transport ships in the Great Qinhai.

In the past few days, 300,000 troops have been loaded onto ships and sent in batches around the coastline in the western part of the Great Qin Sea.

The goal is to take full control of this stretch of coastline as quickly as possible, and avoid the interference of the Tessie countries.

Ottoman soldiers and officers in various ports by the sea looked at the ships and flags of the Ming Dynasty on the sea in a daze.

They have all received notices to hand over the port, city, temple and other urban buildings, as well as this land to the Ming people at noon today.

The military advisers and diplomats stationed in the Ottoman countries of the Tessie countries boarded the departing passenger ship with a heavy and relaxed heart.

At the same time, the Mukden Hall in the Western Cape Palace.

The Ming court and all vassal states and representatives of the imperial estate.

British, French, Lu and other representatives of the courts and royal families of Taixi countries and other specially invited representatives.

Official representatives of Khiva, Kazakhstan, Norway, Sweden and other independent countries.

Delegates from all walks of life gathered again as witnesses to the signing of the peace treaty.

The layout of the Fengtian Hall has been slightly changed, all the seats on both sides have been removed, and the central table has been replaced with a large long table for deliberations.

Zhu Jingyuan sat on the top seat as the signing representative of the Ming Dynasty, and Zayadin, the signing representative of the Ottoman Dynasty, sat on the right side of the long table.

This layout still indicates the asymmetry of the two sides, but no one has actually questioned it.

The entire anti-Ming alliance plus the dead Rome could only barely correspond to the Ming Dynasty, and a single Ottoman certainly did not dare to seek equality.

All other delegates who did not sign stood on either side of the long table to observe.

Shen Fu unfolded the four different languages that had been drawn up in turn and handed them to Zhu Jingyuan in turn.

Remind Zhu Jingyuan where he should sign and use his seal.

There are four agreements between the two sides, written in the Great Ming script, Ottoman Turkish, the Great Food script, and the Persian script.

All the texts of the agreement clearly stipulate that in the event of a conflict between the interpretations of Huayue in different languages, the Da Ming version shall prevail.

In fact, the original version of the peace treaty signed by the two sides is the Great Plain version.

The other three were translated by Uthman himself and read to the people in their own country, so as to save the last face.

The Ottoman state was a stitching monster, and the domestic language and writing system was very complex.

The royal family and court used "Ottoman Turkish", the grammar of which was Turkic, but more than eighty percent of the vocabulary used came from Arabic and Persian.

The "Ottoman Turkish" language is also spoken by ordinary Turks at the bottom of the Ottoman country, but most of the vocabulary used is still Turkic.

Therefore, even in the same country, the Ottoman royal family and ordinary people could not communicate smoothly many times.

Due to the large number of Arabs in the Ottoman territory and the widespread belief in the Celestial Religion throughout the country, the Arabic language was used in the relevant religious documents and laws.

At the same time, Persian was commonly used in literature, art, and diplomacy, and some of the Greeks were Latin.

In the midst of the Ming learning boom, the Ottomans also imitated the Qin Dynasty in cultivating books and scripts, and tried to popularize the Ottoman Turkish language throughout the country.

But the Ottoman Turkish script itself is a stitch monster, and the key is the overall weakness at the cultural level, which cannot suppress the Arabic and Persian languages.

After all, the most important texts of religious beliefs, as well as the most attractive works of literature and art, are presented in other languages.

Insisting on promoting the Ottoman Turkish language, which is considered vulgar, is too much resistance.

Until now, the official language of the Ottomans was Ottoman Turkish, but Arabic and Persian were still widely spoken.

If the announcement is only made in Ottoman Turkish, many people in the country may not understand it at all.

Relatively speaking, the Daming Yayan script is standardized and mature enough, and it comes from the strongest country in the world, and is the language with the largest number of speakers.

It was also impossible for the Ming to believe the Ottoman Turkish documents, so the two sides could only use the original peace treaty in the Ming language.

The Ottoman representative, Zaadin, with the help of his attendants, also signed his four peace treaties in different languages.

Zhu Jingyuan and Za Yading each signed the documents in front of them, exchanged them, and then signed, sealed, and kept them on the documents of the other signatories.

Then, at the request of the Ming Dynasty, the sovereign approval letter prepared by both parties in advance was exchanged on the spot.

In this way, the peace treaty between the two sides was officially signed and took effect directly at the same time as it was signed.

The camera crew guarding below has taken enough photos in a row for follow-up reporting and publicity.

Then Zaadin stood up and made a public announcement of the peace treaty.

In accordance with the will of the Ottoman Sultan, and in accordance with the peace treaty signed between the Ottoman and the Ming Dynasty, the Ottoman state officially withdrew from the anti-Ming alliance.

The Ottoman state immediately dismissed Muhammad Ali as governor of Egypt, and Egyptian affairs had nothing to do with the Ottoman state.

These elements were originally included in the peace treaty, and the territory relinquished by the Ottomans included Egypt.

However, when it comes to other countries, we specifically inform other countries.

At the same time, the content and details of the treaty between the two sides also deliberately left some ambiguities and did not inform other countries.

The peace treaty stated that the lands that the Ottomans "directly transferred" to the Ming were: Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, and the two river basins.

But the land that the Ottomans "gave up" was added with an additional word "etc." at the end of the same enumeration description.

The content of this word "etc." is mainly the tacit understanding of the Ming and Ottomans that the rest of the Dashi Peninsula has completely gone out of control.

In fact, it also implies that the region of North Mexico has been controlled by Tessy and the separatist forces, including Libya, Tripoli, Tunisia, and so on.

Of course, the Ming wanted everything, but the Ottomans could no longer control those places, so they could not be handed over to the Ming directly.

At the same time, Osman also had the idea of provoking Daming and Tessie to continue fighting, so he only agreed to deal with it in the peace treaty.

The Ottomans gave up completely anyway, and how much Daming could occupy in the future was Daming's own business.

Next, Muhammad Ali of Egypt came out as a courtier and submitted an application to Zhu Jingyuan for the signing of the prepared suzerain-vassal treaty.

Zhu Jingyuan said a few words about the scene, and then directly read out the holy decree prepared in advance on the spot.

The state of Egypt was established, and Muhammad Ali was canonized as the Earl of Egypt and concurrently served as the governor of Egypt.

Ali controlled a vast area, but the title he received directly was only that of an earl.

However, Da Ming clearly informed Ali that as the other party continues to pay normal tribute (pay taxes), the title will be gradually promoted to duke.

For Ali, the reality is the same as in Persia, the current title is not important, and the future title is not important.

The important thing is to become a member of the Ming Dynasty.

With this identity, unless another world war breaks out, neither the Tessy countries nor the Ottomans will dare to touch Egypt in the future.

He is the earl of the Ming Dynasty, even if he is the prince of Taixi, he can only be on an equal footing with himself.

At this point, the war between the Ming and the Ottomans officially ended.

Representatives of both sides stood up again and left the scene one after another, and the news of the relevant spread around the world again.

Zhu Jingyuan and the principal officials of Daming did not leave the venue immediately, but sat down directly around the conference table and held a small meeting.

Zhu Jingyuan took the prepared small notebook and instructed the Ming officials around him one by one:

"Inform the Great Qinhai Front Army of the Governor's Mansion of the Right Army that the agreement has been signed and will take effect directly.

"Now start landing on the shore and start taking over the city at noon local time.

"According to the plan, the land to be handed over by the Ottomans was to be handed over as quickly as possible, especially on the island of Cyprus.

"First, it is necessary to control the situation in the transfer area as soon as possible, so as to prevent the countries of Taixi from secretly interfering in trouble, and all the military and political personnel of Taixi should be driven away.

"The second is to supervise the retreat of the Ottoman troops, to avoid sabotage by the other side in the process of retreat, and to supervise the treasury and cultural antiquities.

"All the population of the surrender area, except for the Arabs and Persians, the local Turks, Greeks, and everyone else, etc., can be taken by the Ottomans.

"All the population of the island of Cyprus, regardless of race, must be taken away, and the Ming will offer to help with transport ships.

"Arabs and Persians in other regions, relatively secular shallow believers could stay and live there, and other populations moved to Persia and Egypt.

"Keep an eye on and urge the progress of the immigration organized by the imperial court, and send enough Ming immigrants to the Dashi area, especially the island of Cyprus, as soon as possible.

"Ordinary people divide the fields, and the scholars divide the officials, remember that they all fire guns, and temporarily manage them in a centralized manner in the military tun mode.

"Build our Ming society as soon as possible, even if it is pure agriculture for the time being.

"There must be people from our Ming Dynasty to live, and these places can truly become the land of the Ming Dynasty.

"Once our negotiations with Lucia begin, the situation will definitely quickly become more tense.

"I can't rule out the possibility of fighting all the countries of Taixi again, so be sure to hurry."

Several clerical staff next to him worked hard to write down the records, and at the same time broke them down one by one and handed them over to the corresponding personnel to convey.

In fact, according to the practice and practice, the peace documents signed by the representatives of various countries must be sent back to their countries, officially sealed by their monarchs, and then exchanged the monarch's ratifications before the peace treaty can officially enter into force.

However, because of the existence of the telegram and the deliberate delay of the past month or so, the entire content of the peace treaty between the Ming and the Ottomans has long been carefully confirmed by the monarchs of both sides in turn.

The Ming Emperor would not veto, and the Ottoman Sultan was not capable of vetoing it anymore, so the ratification was prepared in advance, so the agreement came into effect immediately.

The Daming Navy and Army are also all ready, and they are now floating outside the key port terminals.

Zhu Jingyuan's order was sent to the West China Sea in the form of a telegram, and the convoy immediately began to land on the shore.

At noon, the landed Ming troops began to enter the city, and the Ottoman garrison and part of the population began to evacuate.

The Ottomans had already decided to abandon these areas a month earlier, and the news of the evacuation had already spread, either explicitly or implicitly.

Ten days ago, the news of the Ottomans' acceptance of the request was officially made public, and the local soldiers and residents had already begun to prepare for the migration.

On the morning of the next day, the Governor's Office of the Right Army of the Ming Dynasty basically took over the west coast of the Great Qin Sea and the island of Cyprus.

Some of the local residents gradually withdrew with the Ottoman troops, and some stayed under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty.

However, the number of those who leave or those who stay is very limited.

The area has been fighting a world war for more than a decade, and most of the local residents have fled or died as a result of the war.

There are very few people left living here, and the actual number is not as large as the troops of both sides.

The handover process is much slower inland than in coastal areas connected by sea.

Even if the Ming Dynasty uses bicycle troops, it will take four days to cover all the regions, and it may take seven or eight days to completely take over.

Zhu Jingyuan arranged all the tasks and prepared to go back to the palace to rest.

As a result, at this time, a thin official in his thirties called out to Zhu Jingyuan:

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment."

Zhu Jingyuan was obviously stunned by this title, and his mind turned several times before he reacted:

"You...... Officials of the Great Food Country? ”

The officer immediately bowed and said:

"Qiqi Wang, the minister is Liu Zhixin, the head of the palace, and I want to ask the king for something."

Liu Zhixin, as the governor of the palace, is equivalent to the status of the prime minister, and when he reports to the king of his own family, he has to introduce himself first, and he feels that there is no one left.

Zhu Jingyuan understood what was going on, waved his hand to let the others go to work, sat down and asked:

"Tell me, what's there for me to decide?"

Liu Zhixin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said in a rather relaxed and happy tone:

"Your Majesty, according to the will issued by the imperial court in the past few days, the scope of our Great Food Country has changed again.

"The entire Great Food Region, except for the Xihai Peninsula, all other Ming lands were incorporated into the Great Food Country.

"The kingdom of Oman, which was originally in the southeast corner of the Great Food Peninsula, after the vassal king accepted the conditions for the reestablishment, was about to return to the Ming Dynasty, and the land was also incorporated.

"The Lianghe State, which originally only had garrisons and no official officials, was also directly revoked and merged into the Great Food Country.

"So now our Great Food Country is the largest and only feudal country in the Great Food Region, and there are also a lot of good places.

At the same time, the court also asked the king what he meant, whether he wanted to take this opportunity to move the capital.

"The minister thinks that Baghdad, Jerusalem, and Damascus are all good.

"Among them, Damascus is the capital of the ancient great food country."

Liu Zhixin, compared with the previous hard work, is now much more energetic.

The Great Food Country has expanded on a large scale, and many good places have been included, which has completely invigorated this royal palace.

When I was pitted, I stayed in the big food country, and I thought it was a big pit, but I didn't expect it to be developed in less than a year.

Our big food country is getting better.

Zhu Jingyuan listened to these reports, and was at a loss for a moment:

"In places like Jerusalem, Damascus, and Baghdad, didn't the imperial court set up political envoys?"

Liu Zhixin seemed to explain with a little regret:

"Your Majesty, in accordance with the latest decree, the imperial court first expanded the political envoys of Xihaibu to include the Palestinian region.

"In addition, there is a political envoy department of the two rivers, which mainly includes the two river basins, and the political envoy is located in Baghdad province.

"In addition, there is a political envoy of the Western Qin, covering Syria, Lebanon, and Cyprus, and the political envoy is located in Damascus.

"Where there is a political envoy within the Great Food Country, the immigrants and descendants of the Ming Dynasty are under the jurisdiction of the political envoy, and the natives are under the jurisdiction of the royal government.

"Where there is no political envoy, it is under the sole jurisdiction of the Great Food King's Mansion."

Zhu Jingyuan nodded lightly:

"This is pretty much the same, so the current big food country is nominally very large, but there are still so many places that are actually under our own control.

"And these lands are still concentrated around our national capital Liusha County, isn't it appropriate for the national capital to stay in its current location?"

The quicksand county mentioned by Zhu Jingyuan is the current capital of the big food country, and the place is probably near the Daman port in Saudi Arabia in the future.

In Zhu Jingyuan's previous life, it was an important oil transportation port, but now there are not many people in total.

As the capital of the pro-kingdom of Dashi, it can still only be called a county, which shows how miserable this place is.

Liu Zhixin listened to Zhu Jingyuan's words, and immediately felt very speechless, the name is Liusha County, is this place inhabited.

What a good place along the coast of the Great Qinhai Sea, it is okay to go to the Lianghe River Basin, but it is really not possible to go to Oman, why do you have to stay in Liusha County?

Is it only because you don't live in Liusha County, and in order to facilitate the management of the surrounding territories, do you let the officials of the royal palace stay there?

Liu Zhixin, who had just been excited for a long time, became bitter again.

Zhu Jingyuan looked at Changshi's reaction, estimated the time and situation, and almost revealed something:

"Liu Qing doesn't have to worry, among the immigrants organized by the imperial court this time, a group of them were sent to Liusha County."

Liu Zhixin subconsciously wanted to ask, why did the immigrants send there, is it not good to go to Daqinhai?

Zhu Jingyuan didn't give him a chance to ask questions:

"Among these immigrants, there are drillers arranged by my mother who will go to drill wells near Liusha County to find oil.

"I heard that there are oil seedlings in many places around the Persian Gulf, and it is very likely that there is oil underground in our Liusha County.

"If oil can be drilled, then our Liusha County and our big food country should be supported."

Liu Zhixin knows about oil and oil wells, and in some places, as long as you drill an hole in the ground, the oil will bubble out by itself.

Although the amount of this thing is not large, as long as the well is drilled, the money will basically be picked up for nothing.

Although it will definitely not make Liusha County rich, it should be able to live a normal life, and it doesn't cost money to use fire.

Zhu Jingyuan heard that there were oil seedlings, and Liu Zhixin had seen it with his own eyes, so maybe he could really drill oil.

The king has long had this kind of plan, and obviously he is still thinking about the big food country in his heart, and he is not really a pure shopkeeper.

This made Liu Zhixin's heart a little more stable, but he was still a little worried:

"Your Majesty, oil is still the monopoly of the royal consortium, even if we drill oil, we have to hand it over to the royal consortium, right?"

Zhu Jingyuan nodded lightly and said:

"Yes, so let's just drill, and after finding the oil field, we will directly hand it over to the consortium to operate, and we will lie down and get points."

Speaking of this, Zhu Jingyuan stood up and gently patted Liu Zhixin on the shoulder:

"Maybe after this negotiation is over, Liu Qing will return to Liusha County, and the consortium will already start to send money.

"In the future, we will eat the country, and we will lie down and make money."

Liu Zhixin was not carried away by Zhu Jingyuan's paintings, but asked and reminded very calmly:

"Your Majesty, this drilling also costs money, if we can't drill oil, won't this money be wasted?

"Let's eat the country...... The treasury is really empty......"

Zhu Jingyuan smiled and waved his hand and said:

"Don't worry, I'll pay for the well, and the emperor's grandfather directly gave me a sum of money, and if I lose it, I won't lose it to the big food country."

Liu Zhixin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then instinctively took the job:

"The king can rest assured, the minister must do this job well, so that our big food country has an extra income."

After Zhu Jingyuan appeased his parents, he subconsciously wanted to send him away, but he couldn't help it after thinking about it.

This chief of the palace is his real courtier, a legitimate courtier, and the deputy of his palace.

Now that the two sides are in the same city, they are still in charge of the same job, and it is not appropriate to hang him outside.

There will be more and more things in the big food country in the future, and he may often have to use him to control the big food country remotely.

So he let Liu Zhixin stay in the palace directly and use it as his third staff.
