Xinshun 1730

Chapter 1294 Death and Revenge ([-])
As for those who are members of the small circle around the emperor, who are really in charge of or preside over the intelligence work, it is naturally the women's clothing boss, the androgynous knight, Dion de Baomeng.

Excluding those legendary and script-like filters, this person is still very complicated.

During the storm in 93, even though he was a nobleman, his family property and land were confiscated, he still wrote to the National Assembly, hoping to take off his skirt, put on his dragoon uniform, and return home to form a volunteer division to smash the holy siege , defending France.Of course, it is said in the legend that he will return to China to form a "female division".

Although some people in the post-modern L, G, B, and T groups regard him as the founder of cross-dressing, it seems that he is not the same as the post-modern group of weak chickens.This is a 68-year-old ruthless man who really carried a skirt and gambled with swordsmanship to earn a living. He really went to the thirteen states with a gun to support the revolution, but was caught and exiled halfway.

He is very capable. He contributed a lot to the previous Russian-French alliance.

With such a combination, it is really difficult for Dashun to judge France's intentions, because this is a diplomatic combination that can be attacked, defended, and fought.

Whether it's real peace talks, intelligence gathering, or a coup d'etat, this combination is fine, and the level is indeed enough.

What is Dashun afraid of now? The main reason is that France will sell Dashun.For example, with the help of Dashun's military power, they negotiated a peace with Britain in private and reached a favorable condition for France.

Although it is said that the radicals on the British side want to blow up France, prevent revenge, dismantle the shipyard, and destroy fishing boats; the radicals on the French side want to blow up Britain, support the Jacobites to land in Scotland, and let the British After getting rid of Hannover Shinra, France has the final say.

But there are radicals on both sides and conservatives on both sides.

According to the views of conservatives, it is nothing more than to hope that after Britain abandons Hannover, it will not get involved in Shinra and redefine the border between the two sides in North America. I plan to get thirteen states, because I can't control it-then get a small island in the Caribbean, and it's over.

For a person like Louis XV, Liu Yu said that he was opportunistic, which is quite true.When opportunities and risks fail to materialize, the knees are likely to become pacifist.Furthermore, France's financial situation is indeed ugly, and if the domestic fight continues, it is likely to explode.

The key point is that Dashun can't discuss some key things with France. The meaning of Dashun is to continue to fight, to fight for a while, and then to talk about peace.However, Dashun did not support the adventure of landing in England.

France is not an idiot either, they are working hard here, Dashun is working hard to develop industry, and the goods are sold here by boats and boats, so I must be muttering in my heart.

Chen Qinghai waited for Tian Ping to talk about the French affairs, and after giving a general introduction to the people of the French mission, he said: "Brother Tian has been in England for a long time, and the situation there, do you think the battle of Gibraltar this time will Can the chief minister of the British cabinet be changed? Change to a weaker one, not so tough and insist on fighting until the end?"

Tian Ping clicked his tongue, shook his head and said: "It's hard to say. Whoever is the chief minister of the cabinet now will be blamed. When the new king takes the throne, he will directly use his own people as the chief minister of the cabinet. This……"

"You need to know that this UK is different from Zhao Song. King Kang is King Kang after all, but the British side has been muttering that this throne is not right. It is a German, and there has always been a lot of dissatisfaction in the country. Therefore, Zhao Gouke Seeking peace, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him."

"Moreover, what Britain is most afraid of is the French landing and the restoration of the Jacobites. Therefore, when the Strait is alive and dead, it is probably impossible to change the leadership."

"What do you mean over there?"

Chen Qinghai didn't hide it from him. Before setting sail from Gibraltar, Li Yan had discussed this matter at an internal meeting.

"What we mean here is to intimidate. In fact, we don't want to change to a peace-oriented faction, but hope that the main combat faction will continue to be in charge."

"If you change the main peace faction, I'm afraid that China and Faxi will separate themselves, and they will really make peace."

"And if the main fighters are in the cabinet, we can continue to fight. We are different from France and Spain. We don't cede territory and don't want islands. So fighting for another two or three years is the best."

"Mainly I don't know the situation in the UK."

"Showing off your might can inspire the resistance of the British people and never seek peace?"

"Or after flaunting their power, the British panicked and wanted to surrender?"

Tian Ping suddenly realized, pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "It still depends on the situation on your side. There is a saying that changes come later, as long as there are no changes, there is no problem."

Chen Qinghai said: "Don't worry, His Highness fought against the British once. Although he praised them, he thinks they are much better than the Dutch. But as long as there is no decisive battle in the strait, even if it is a decisive battle in the open sea, there is a [-]% to [-]% chance of victory here." .”

"But if there is a decisive battle in the strait, it is difficult to say. First, the hydrological wind direction is the time of the British; second, the waves are rolling, and the coast can be defended, which is the best position of the British; third, the British are fighting against the enemy and defending their homeland. It is all British. The time is right. With the help of British merchant ships, countless small boats and arsonists, the decisive battle in the strait is unpredictable."

"However, apart from the decisive battle in the strait, our army can guarantee that we will never lose."

After listening to it, Tian Ping had a solid foundation in his heart, and said: "Although I don't study much, I have been in Wude Palace for a few years, and I have learned "Sun Tzu's Art of War."

"Soldiers are deceitful. Therefore, if you can, you can show that you can't; if you use it, you can't show it; if you use it, you can show it is far; if you are far, you can show it is near."

"What is the Englishman most afraid of? What he fears most is the landing of France and the restoration of the old king."

"If you really want the main fighters to continue to rule the government, show off their power, and claim to take London and so on, then the effect will be outstanding."

"At that time, the British will all fight bravely to protect their country and religion."

"As for the French side, you can also give some explanations. Maybe you can deceive them, saying that the Chinese Empire wants to increase its troops, and then the decisive battle will be in the Strait."

"If this is the case, Paris only needs to talk about one more ex post condition, based on the assumption of a decisive battle of additional troops and landing in Scotland. The lion must open its mouth and ask the French to bargain."

"Diplomatic matters have always been like this. The more you ask for, the more he thinks it's true. But... for this matter, you must be prepared to deal with Britain first and France later."

"Afterwards, the core interests of the British were preserved, and the British were reconciled. Then France was forced to submit, and the war ended."

"However, there are also risks in this matter. The British have always been cunning. The agreement signed by the Duke of Cumberland in Hanover before turned their backs and refused. The risk is that if the British turns their backs and seizes the opportunity between China and France, If you defeat each of them, all previous efforts will be wasted."

"What will happen to the situation after the war, whether to be the Son of Heaven, or to be divided into each other, depends on the will of the imperial court. It still has to be decided by the imperial court."

"I guess the imperial court also decided to fight the war for a few more years. At least I didn't get any orders from my side. It seems that I have to wait and see. Nowadays, it takes two years to communicate. I guess there will be more in the summer." Is there any news?"

This matter is really troublesome, Chen Qinghai thought for a while, and felt that it was indeed the case.

The troublesome thing here is that there are actually disagreements within the court of Dashun, and this disagreement lies in "whether the financial center of Europe should be placed in the Netherlands".

If it continues to be placed in Amsterdam, then in fact Dashun will guarantee for the Netherlands, and it must be able to deter Britain and France.

In other words, the cooperation between Dashu and the Netherlands will continue to deepen and continue, so that the Netherlands can completely act as the "comprador" of the whole of Europe, that is, the "free trade" led by Dashun.

In this way, relying on the neutrality guarantee of the Netherlands and Dashun’s commitment to the Netherlands, Amsterdam has become the safest place in Europe. With its tradition, it has naturally become the financial center and trade center of Europe, the transit point of East-West trade, free trade and freedom. port.

But this guarantee means that Dashun cannot shrink back. It must continue to maintain a strong navy and keep opening up to the outside world, which means that Dashun cannot close its doors. The power in the court is getting stronger and stronger.

Otherwise, it will not even be able to guarantee its neutrality, then the Netherlands will definitely be doomed.

If the UK beats the Netherlands violently, the financial center of Amsterdam will go to London; if France beats the Netherlands violently, the financial center of Amsterdam will also leave, but it will definitely not go to France.

In addition, to achieve this strategic goal, it means that the balance in North America must be maintained and the British rule over the thirteen states must be recognized.

Only in this way, Amsterdam's position as a financial center will be more stable, because the subsidiary status of North America determines that the UK also hopes that the financial center will be as close to the UK as possible.

In short, this is a need for Dashun to make preparations for "continuous development, non-return, and long-term maintenance of a navy that can always interfere in Europe".

But the voices in the hall were not consistent.This new "false free trade" order in the world is not supported by everyone.

There are also many people who support rebalancing, each taking charge of a share, Dashun sells goods with other countries, and it is enough to get the profits of the East India Companies of various countries.

This involves the forces of various factions within Dashun and the attitude of the imperial power, so it is also difficult for Dashun.
