Emperor Nicholas I of Lucia and King William III of Prussia were both in Mexia at this time.

The two are even getting together now.

At the junction of the two Mexican colonies, on the side of the Prussian colony, a city within the mouth of a river.

The historic Nigerian city of Calabar has now been renamed New Königsberg.

The rulers of the two countries gathered together and looked at the news from the army in front of them, and their mood was very uplifted and happy.

"It's really good that we've finally dealt with this annoying bunch of natives."

"The future of New Germany and New Lucia is bright!"

William was very happy to give the order, first send a message to the front line, commending all the generals and soldiers.

Then a celebratory banquet was organized, to which Emperor Nicholas was invited.

Nikolai asked his people to send a similar message to the front, and then very happily expressed the invitation to the banquet.

Everyone was very happy.

The colonies of Prussia and Lucia were close to each other, and the main indigenous enemies of the interior were the same organization.

The two sides launched comprehensive military cooperation in order to deal with the indigenous people in the interior.

The two sides may have conflicts in the future because of border frictions.

But now the main goal of both sides is to develop, not to compete on the existing stock.

Even if it is competition, it is competition for the exploration of inland areas, not disputes over the roughly determined coastal boundaries.

So the current cooperation between the two sides is very pleasant.

Zhu Jingyuan's Mozhou colony allocated to Lucia made the Lucians very happy.

It was Cameroon, which was originally historically German, as well as parts of Central Africa and Chad in the interior of Cameroon.

Zhu Jingyuan's Mozhou colony was given to Prussia, which made the Prussians even more ecstatic.

Zhu Jingyuan said at the time that there might be coal and oil here, and then the Prussians went to explore, and they really found it.

There is a shortage of oil in Prussia itself, there is oil here!

They also found iron ore here! And the taste is very good!

Prussia itself lacks iron ore, and it happens to be here!

In fact, this colony, which was later known as Nigeria, had the tenth largest oil reserves in the world.

Although there are not many iron ores, they are several times larger than those in Germany.

This colony directly complemented the lack of important industrial resources in the mainland.

King Wilhelm III of Prussia made the excited decision to name the colony New Germany!

This was Zhu Jingyuan's suggestion at the beginning.

William III and the courtiers all believed from the bottom of their hearts that cooperating with the Ming Dynasty was the most correct choice.

Joining the anti-Ming alliance of the British was a huge mistake.

The Ming sold an existing fleet to Prussia, all of which were semi-new ships in decent condition.

The Ming Dynasty helped Prussia master the operation and maintenance of capital ships.

Let Prussia have a fleet to travel between the mainland and the colonies, and can guard the route to the colonies.

It also organized an international alliance to establish the Port Alliance on the West Coast of Mozhou, so that all colonial ports could be opened to each other.

It also provided for an international strait regime that prevented Britain and France from blockading the English Channel under any name.

In this way, the sea route from Prussia to the colonies was completely unblocked.

Before the World War, Prussia had nominally acquired a colony in East Mexico.

But Prussia simply had no ability to protect this distant colony, nor did it have the energy to develop it.

The current New German colony was truly in Prussia's own hands.

For almost three years after the end of the war, the Prussians devoted almost all their energies to the new Germany.

Large numbers of immigrants were sent to New Germany, where they cultivated farmland and established cities and ports.

Development of oil fields, construction of oil refineries, development of iron ore, construction of steel plants.

The whole of the New German colony was a busy scene.

Of course, it wasn't just Prussia that the Ming supported.

Prussia, Lucia, Ottoman, Austria, Italy and other countries that were not very developed in the navy bought ready-made capital ships from Daming at quite affordable prices.

Although in terms of design, after the Dreadnought battleships are put into service, these capital ships will become obsolete.

But it is enough to maintain sea routes.

And Da Ming is also teaching them to design new warships, and at the same time guiding them to transform old capital ships.

As long as they are willing to pay.

All the more so, now that the world war is over, the whole world has turned to development and construction.

With the League of Nations as a platform for coordination, there is no incentive for the various powers to wage war for the time being.

Now the entire west coast of Mexico, from Monaco to South Southwest Mexico, is a prosperous and busy scene.

The Tessie countries are concentrating on running their own colonies in Mezhou.

The areas close to the coast, the relatively mature areas, are all going all out to open up the wasteland and build cities.

In the wilderness of the interior, armies and expeditions were active to discover and conquer indigenous tribes.

It is very difficult for the Taixi countries to deal with the Ming Dynasty, but it is all cruelty to deal with the indigenous tribes.

Including the Ottomans, they also found their former majesty here.

Ottomans, Prussians, Lucia, Austrians, Italians immigrated mainly from the mainland.

The population withdrawn from Yinzhou by Spain and Portugal was directly transferred to Mozhou in batches to build new colonies.

The British transported the population from Tianzhu through private merchants.

After the end of the war, the mainland of the Tessie countries quickly entered a state of recovery.

The imperial courts of various countries are reducing the production of the military industry and increasing the livelihood industry.

Retired soldiers were reinstated, and agricultural and industrial labor was increased.

At the same time, it cooperated with the development of the colony to alleviate the contradictions accumulated in the country.

Although Zhu Jingyuan did not develop as many new technologies and industries, the territory and colonies were not as vast as those of the Ming Dynasty.

The overall prosperity is not as good as today's Daming, and it cannot reach the state of cooking oil with fire.

But they are also showing a thriving scene.

Except for the UK and France.

Britain and France also fought a tough battle against Napoleon in Northern Yinzhou.

In the evening of the same day, the banquet in New Königsberg began, in which the protagonists were, of course, the rulers of the two countries.

The banquet was attended by officials from the colonies of the two countries, as well as high-ranking military officials.

and aristocrats who traveled or wintered in the colonies.

Excludes the surrendered indigenous nobles of Mozhou who were canonized.

The Tessie nobles despised them for being ugly and foul-smelling.

The two rulers stood on a high platform in the middle of the banquet hall and jointly announced the news of victory in the war ahead.

The scene immediately burst into warm applause.

William and Nikolai each spoke a few words, and then announced that the feast was the beginning.

The light music then sounded, and the banquet entered into joyful dance time.

William and Nikolai were about to find a dance partner to dance when a signal soldier hurried into the ballroom.

The dance paused for a moment, and everyone looked at the soldier.

The sudden break-in at a banquet held by the king must have been particularly significant news.

Both Nikolai and William suddenly became nervous.

"There shouldn't be any bad news......

The signal corps hurried up to Nikolai and handed over a telegram.

Nikolai read it as fast as he could, and then sighed softly with a complicated expression.

Then he handed the telegram in his hand to William next to him.

After William finished reading it, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly laughed:

"This should be good news, the borders of New Lucia are completely determined, and the point is that no direct conflict has broken out.

"The next step is to let go of exploration and construction, and there is no need to worry about it anymore."

Of course, Nikolai wants to get more land, and now he is directly confronted by Daming's exploration team, of course, there is some regret.

But William also has a point.

At the same time, William III, as the master, held up the telegraph and said loudly to the crowd below:

"This is exciting news!

"The exploration team of the Lucia people and the exploration team of the Ming people met on the grassland in the middle of the Mozhou continent!

"The two of them set off from the east and west sides of the Mozhou Continent respectively, and jointly opened up the passage of the Mozhou Continent.

"It's a great thing, something that deserves to go down in history.

"Honor goes to Lucia and the bravest explorers of Daming!

"Let's toast to their feat!"

A small number of delegates immediately thought of the significance of the encounter between Daming and Lucia, which meant that Lucia's exploration was over.

Lucia, and even the entire Tessie's Mozhou colony, is expected to end soon.

The division of the entire world will also be completed.

This is indeed a major event that can go down in history, but it may not be a good thing.

The external increment is gone, and in the future it can only be fought for internally.

Although it is said that since the end of the Western Cape Peace Conference, the world has actually been divided.

However, there is still a difference between the completion of the division on the map and the actual division of the division.

It's like the difference between the pronouncement of the death penalty and the official execution.

Everyone knew that this day would come, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.

However, this part of the population is not the majority.

The vast majority of ordinary officials and aristocrats were not immediately thought deeply.

It's just that I take it for granted that the encounter with explorers from both sides of the continent is indeed exciting news.

The atmosphere immediately became more enthusiastic.

Everyone went to serve the wine and toasted with William III.

The banquet continued until late at night.

Scratching my ears and scratching my cheeks to write until midnight, I can't write anything, so let's change these things first.
