Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 374: The storm in Western Europe, the war to destroy Portugal, the ritual of leading a sheep will never go out of style, and the establishment of the Spanish vassal

Columbus admired Emperor Ming's foresight.

But talents are easy to come by, and a thousand-mile horse is rare. If there is no smooth ascending channel, no matter how many intellectuals there are, it will be in vain.

However, looking at the territory of the Ming Dynasty, if there is no opportunity in the mainland, these talents can go to the vassal state to display their talents.

After chatting with the local magistrate, I learned that the entire continent was called Dazhou, with three vassal states and two island vassals outside it. There were five kings in total, and the five kings ruled together.

The territory is vast, covering 900 million square kilometers.

Now the territory under his feet is Da Zhou, the overlord of this continent.

Columbus made a circumnavigation of Australia and visited King Zheng of New Zealand and King Song of New Guinea.

After obtaining sufficient supplies, start a new round of sailing.

Many small islands were discovered in Fiji, Tonga, and Samoa, and the islanders were still Ming people. Columbus paid a visit to the king and spent a lot of money to buy the nautical map to the Americas from the king.

When I learned that they were going to travel to the Americas, my attitude suddenly became a little alienated. I thought you were here for trade, but it turned out that you were here for travel.

After a brief stop in Hawaii, he sailed again.

Columbus licked his face and tried to establish relationships with others, only to realize that Hawaii is an island sandwiched between two continents.

Columbus's tragic discovery was that there was no New World. There was a record in the Portuguese Royal Palace saying that there was a huge continent across the Atlantic Ocean, and it was full of natives.

Bactria occupies the entire west coast of North America. These places are full of rolling hills, and the north is covered with frozen soil.

The nearby island countries are greedy. We can’t learn from geographical location, but we can learn from finance. We can also run a bank.

When it comes to wages, what is there in China? The per capita income in Ju State has reached 2000 yuan. However, the area of ​​Ju State is too small, and artificial reclamation has now begun.

But without a highly developed business base, banks cannot develop.

The Pacific Ocean is now called Da Ming Yang, and the Atlantic Ocean is called Da Qin Yang.

The population is as high as 300.

The emperor originally wanted to grant this place to his son, but King Jing begged him several times before he begged for it.

The State of Ju wants to rent a piece of land in North America for its citizens to live in.

After more than 20 years of construction, Hawaii has become a more prosperous region than Hong Kong.

But this New World is for Portugal, and Ming Dynasty has already taken it for itself.

Relying on finance and trade, Ju became the richest island in the world.

The sailing destination changed from South America to North America, but this did not affect the navigator's confidence.

The problem is that Hawaii is too big and too profitable.

As a neutral country, it does not set up troops and does not allow any military fleet to land on the island. This is signed by all the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty and will never be changed.

Don't underestimate Hawaii, it is a transit point for multinational trade. All trade between America and the Ming Dynasty must be supplied through Hawaii.

There are pigeon houses everywhere, and they hardly consider the problem of blocking light. They just build them wherever they can.

I thought it was a deserted island, but it turned out to be Akito again.

The citizens don't want to do it. They are worried that they will be forcibly thrown to North America. King Ju has troubles with happiness.

Now it seems that the world is already dominated by Ming people.

Countries are staring with envy.

In fact, the islands in the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean can be used as transfer stations. If they are carefully maintained, they can also have business.

Facing each other across the sea to the east are North America and South America, as well as the Great Xia and the Tang Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty.

However, the living environment of this richest island country is very poor because there are too many people and too little land.

It is equivalent to saying that all the continents in the world were occupied by the Ming Dynasty.

After several months of sailing, Columbus saw the mainland and landed at the port. According to understanding, this was the Ming Dynasty vassal state of Bactria.

The person who sealed Hawaii was King Jing, but he is not King Jing now, but King Ju. This is the Kingdom of Ju, and its capital is Hawaii.

The locals joked to themselves that two people facing the windows of the two buildings could kiss each other if they stuck their heads out, which shows that the buildings are close to each other.

After all, Portugal crossed the Atlantic Ocean to reach the American continent. For them, Australia was the New World.

Columbus was rescued by the enthusiastic people of Ju State.

It was just good luck that he was destined to drift to Hawaii, otherwise this famous navigator would have died in the Pacific Ocean.

Columbus wanted to scold him because the king of Samoa lied to him by giving him a fake chart!

Yes, Columbus spent 1000 taels of gold to buy it. It must be a fake chart. He wanted to go to South America, but the Ming Dynasty king gave him the road to North America, which perfectly avoided the islands he passed along the way and circled directly in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

As a result, while walking, they deviated from the course, were unlucky, caught up in a sea storm, lost half of the ship, and finally drifted to an isolated island.

No hidden gem yet?

Columbus believed that there was. No matter how powerful the Ming Dynasty was, it was impossible to occupy all the land under the sun.

Even a big city in the Ming Dynasty may not be as wealthy as Ju.

However, more and more people are voluntarily immigrating to Ju State.

After he occupied this place, he declared Ju as a neutral country and would never participate in wars. He also built a free trade port.

There is not a single piece of farmland in the entire country. They are all trading ports. It is the richest country among the island countries. It even opened the Honolulu Bank. It does not remember the name of the depositor and is highly confidential. Its functions are the same as those of a Swiss bank.

The territory is very large, but it has no value.

He just wanted to exchange land with Zhu Jianwo, the twenty-seventh son of the emperor who was sealed in the north of the Five Great Lakes.

He also brought in Zhu Jianpeng, the emperor's twenty-fifth son, the king of Yue, and Zhu Jianxun, the emperor's twenty-eighth son, the king of Qi, to divide North America more reasonably.

With the exception of Mexico, Canada and the United States are re-divided to try to allow the three countries to have strategic depth and threaten each other.

The one who suffered the most among the Four Kingdoms was King Yu. King Yu was sealed in the area north of the Great Lakes. That area was also very cold and could not accommodate a large population.

It would be more beneficial to them if they could capture territories on the south coast of the Great Lakes such as Boston and New York State.

Canada has a lot of frozen soil and rich natural resources.

Each has its own good, each has its own bad.

The King of Yue, who occupied the rich east coast, had no strategic depth, so he also needed a piece of strategic depth.

Similarly, the emperor's 29th son, King Zhu Jiansu of Song, was granted a title in Mexico, and the 30th son of the emperor, King Zhu Jianlu of Yu, was granted a title in the southern region of Mexico, and they also participated.

It became a six-nation agreement, and only Zhu Jianmiao, the thirty-second son of the emperor who was sealed in Cuba, Dominica and other islands, had no objections.

He wanted to have an opinion. He wanted Miami, but was directly rejected by the King of Yue.

But he didn't give up. If North America couldn't get it, he went to South America to find a way.

After more than ten years of consultations, the six countries finally redefined the region.

In the fifty-first year of Jingtai, with the approval of the central government, the six parties officially completed the land exchange. Because of the friendly consultations between the six North American countries, they also received the emperor's approval and granted many treasures.

North America sealed the Seven Kings because North America was too rich.

If it is not separated, the center will not be at ease.

Columbus sadly discovered that the canal connecting the two Americas was in the country of Yu, which was the Panama Canal.

Because of the dispute over land exchange, the canal was a bargaining chip for the King of Yu. It was not until the 50th year of Jingtai that construction started again, and it is expected to be completed within three years.

This canal has brought a piece of frozen soil in the north to the Yu State for profit, which is part of Alaska and has become an enclave of the Yu State.

After more than ten years of immigration, the population of the seven countries has exceeded 1.7 million, and the total population has reached million. Immigration is still happening, but now active immigration is the mainstay.

Columbus was forced to sail from South America and when he passed through the Drake Passage, he accidentally discovered a continent full of glaciers!

I thought it was a great geographical discovery, but after climbing up, I actually saw the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty, with Ming Dynasty and Antarctica written on it in various languages.

When Columbus returned to Portugal, it was already the fifty-third year of Jingtai.

When I landed in my motherland, I saw devastation everywhere. This was the result of the war.

In the 51st year of Jingtai, Da Chu colluded with the Kamal Alliance, united with the five African kings, formed a seven-nation coalition, landed on the Portuguese mainland, burned, killed, looted, and ran away after looting.

Portugal launched a frenzied retaliation against Dachu, and once attacked the mainland of Dachu.

However, Da Chu sacrificed the Pope's deadly weapon, forcing Portugal to retreat, and then Da Chu launched a crazy revenge against Portugal.

The Netherlands discovered that Portugal was at a disadvantage in the dispute with Chu, and immediately encouraged Britain to launch the Portuguese War.

In recent years, the Netherlands has shown signs of becoming a European hegemon, but it is just one breath away.

Now that the opportunity to crush Portugal is just around the corner, how can he not step forward?

As for Da Chu, after they killed Portugal, they turned around and destroyed Da Chu. This time Da Chu used the Pope to block the gun, which angered the entire European countries.

Even the Kamal Alliance is far away from Dachu.

Zhu Youtang is more ruthless than his father Zhu Jianshen, and he is like a stick.

But he is good at being a shit stirrer.

The Netherlands and Britain immediately joined the fray, and the Seven-Nation Alliance became the Nine-Nation Alliance, joining forces to deal with Portugal.

Columbus was also unlucky. As soon as he came back, he was captured by the Chu army.

Perhaps Columbus was docile and was not killed. After learning his identity, Zhu Youtang thought he was a talent and incorporated him into the servant army.

Unlucky Columbus, a good navigator, became a servant of Chu.

It was Xingwang Zhu Youqi who felt that Columbus was a talent and helped to intercede. After Columbus fought a few battles, he became dizzy and became a slave of Xingwang.

What Zhu Youtang means is that this foreigner is not pure in mind, so he might as well be castrated and used as a eunuch for you.

Zhu Youqi did not agree.

His eldest brother was very considerate of his younger brothers. Shou Guo and Xing Guo did not have enough soldiers, so they captured Dingkou and used them as servants.

All the captured talents, gold and silver treasures were distributed to the vassal states.

Columbus was completely confused. After six years of global voyage, three months as a soldier, and almost becoming a eunuch, his outlook on life was completely shattered.

Fortunately, Zhu Youqian was a good man and was not allowed to be an eunuch.

But Queen Xingwang was not a good person. She said to Zhu Youqi: "I think this person has great talents and will become the Three Treasures eunuch of the Shou Kingdom in the future. It is better to send him to the palace first and give him the child after he is born. How about being a companion?"

I said this in front of Columbus, can you respect me?

The problem is, Zhu Youqi is tempted.

His eldest son died five days after he was born. He still has no son. What he misses most is his son. Although he doesn't have one yet, he is preparing everything his son needs.

Zhu Youyi nodded. The eunuch and the prince are one and the most loyal, so it is very important to choose a capable eunuch.

But this man has sailed around the world and is ambitious. Will he serve the prince wholeheartedly?

"Your Majesty, my concubine said that you must prepare in advance and consider your character." The queen said with a smile.

Zhu Youqian waved his hand and ordered someone to cleanse Columbus, step him into the mud, and then ask his son to pick him up bit by bit. How dare he be disloyal?

The navigator Columbus became a eunuch and would later become Zhu Houcong's eunuch companion.

Zhu Youtang told Zhu Youtang about Columbus becoming a eunuch. Zhu Youtang didn't care at all. It was his honor for a barbarian to serve in the palace.

At this moment, Zhu Youtang's thoughts were all on the Portuguese war.

Portugal's most powerful force is its navy.

Even if the homeland is destroyed, if the Armada is still there, it will be able to recover health quickly, so we must destroy their navy.

Portugal learned from the experience of Spain's demise and hid its navy. Even if the mainland was attacked and killed, only a small navy would appear. The main force of the navy was hidden in the Mediterranean or the Atlantic, ready to strike back at any time.

Portugal itself is not so easily ravaged.

The war lasted for two years, and Chu lost more than 7000 people, and the African vassal states lost more than .

How easy it was to beat Spain last time, now how difficult it is to beat Portugal.

Because Da Chu always likes to land on the mainland to fight.

This has caused all countries to desperately defend their homeland. The most powerful one is the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is now defending its homeland so well that even a needle cannot penetrate it.

Obviously, Kamal and King Huai were frightened. They were really killing people.

Portugal also has no strategic depth, but they defend their homeland very well.

One step at a time.

With the participation of the Netherlands and Britain in the war, the war situation was completely different. Dachu concentrated on dealing with enemies on land and left the sea to Britain and the Netherlands.

The war lasted until the end of the 53rd year of Jingtai, when Germany entered the war.

Portugal gave in directly and only released the news of Germany's participation in the war. This side gave in and the British and Dutch gave up if they wanted to see things better.

But Zhu Youtang wanted to show his authority.

Speed ​​up the attack pace, recruit large numbers of locals into the servant army, and enter a long war of attrition.

Portugal could only cut off its flesh and pay compensation, and instigated the British and Dutch to turn against Chu.

Britain and the Netherlands do have this idea.

The atmosphere of Europa was ruined by Zhu Jianshen, who betrayed allies, shouted to catch thieves, and played sneakily.

But Zhu Youtang is also plotting against the British and Dutch. The Kamal Alliance is waiting to rob the British and Dutch mainland, as well as the Ottomans who have reconciled with Da Chu.

Zhu Youtang has already sent people to borrow troops from the Ottomans.

It is worth mentioning that in the fifty-third year of Jingtai, with the support of the Ming Dynasty, Greece became independent and Greece officially became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty.

At the end of the same year, the suzerainty of the vassal state of Greece was transferred to Dachu.

Greece became a vassal state of Da Chu and a member of the Han cultural circle.

The independence of Greece is directly related to the Ming Dynasty going to Greece to rob tombs... Oh, and the friendly excavation of underground cultural relics. The eleven northern provinces of the Ming Dynasty, plus a capital, need Greek culture to support tourism.

The Ming Emperor had no choice but to negotiate with the Ottomans, support Greek independence, delimit the existing territories of the Sui Dynasty and the Ottomans, open Eastern European territories to the Ottomans, and allow the Ottomans to fight north.

After Greece became independent, the Daming scientific expedition team conducted protective excavations.

Large quantities of treasures were transported back to the Ming Dynasty.

It’s not that the leader of Greece has never thought about turning his back on his people. The problem is that the Ming Dynasty has 30,000 troops stationed in Greece and enjoys all privileges.

When the Greek leader saw the garrison general, he had to salute.

It is commonplace to go to court with a sword and not follow the rules when entering the court. As long as there is no scandal of sleeping on the dragon bed and playing with the Queen of Greece, it is enough.

Ming Dynasty does not need Greece, but Greece needs Ming Dynasty.

Greece can guarantee that as long as the Ming Dynasty withdraws its troops, the Ottomans will immediately occupy Greece without hesitation.

Zhu Youtang had the idea of ​​​​the Greek island of Heraklion.

He wanted to entrust his son there.

Anyway, it’s just an island, and Greece should agree.

Sure enough, Greece agreed.

How nice.

Zhu Youtang felt that this vassal country was easy to bully, and then he began to ask the vassal country to send troops and money to help the suzerain country fight the war.

The Portuguese War in the past two years has suffered a lot from the small country of Greece.

Zhu Youtang felt that the Greek army was useless in combat, so he simply asked them to work as engineering soldiers. In fact, they did the work of slaves. When necessary, they served as servants and drove them to the battlefield.

After Portugal's first surrender failed, they immediately appealed to the Ming Dynasty and asked the Ming Emperor to issue an order to stop Zhu Youtang's rude behavior.

Europa has been fighting wars for so many years. In fact, they are all small battles. So many people have never died, and no country has been ravaged like this.

Weird Zhu Jianshen, this guy is so bad, he abandons his allies at every turn and kills them.

This resulted in a rapid and sharp decline in the population of Europe.

Especially Portugal, with a population of more than one million, fought for four years and half of them died. It was a real massacre in Chu.

The Kamal Alliance just wants to grab the treasure. Da Chu is really killing people.

Especially those little dwarfs in the Chu army who kill too many people will go crazy and kill more and more people, and they are not afraid of death.

The Chu army gained a reputation as berserker warriors.

Just talking about the Portuguese War, the famous ones include the Monchique Massacre and the Porto Massacre. The material is enough to build a museum.

Zhu Jianshen was cunning at best, Zhu Youtang was ruthless and cunning. Yinghe wanted to rebel, but was stopped by the Five African Kings, resulting in Yinghe having to cede the benefits to Dachu.

As for Portugal, it sent troops to the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youtang didn't care at all, his imperial grandfather knew best. If he saw it, he would definitely agree, cut his flesh, and then forget about it.

Look at Greece. It has been cut off by the Ming Dynasty in recent years. As for the restoration of the country, the Ming Dynasty has long forgotten it. Until it was time to dig up the treasures underground, the Ming Dynasty immediately helped the country to restore the country, and its reputation changed very quickly.

Because I don’t want to buy it from Osman, it would be a huge loss. I can make more money by just digging it myself.

As for Portugal, his grandfather will probably give him a secret edict. You have so many sons, why don’t you consider confederation?

Zhu Youtang was taught by the emperor, and he knew his grandfather very well.

Sure enough, Portugal was tricked by the Ming Dynasty's governor in Greece, and then there was no news.

The King of Portugal cursed a nest of snakes and rats.

Then, in June of the 54th year of Jingtai, Portugal itself fell.

The Nine-Nation Allied Forces were stationed in the palace for a whole month, and all the wealthy cities were robbed.

As for the King of Portugal.

He became the first king in history to run away, and the process was even painted in the painting. Dancing on the stove with the queen, leading the sheep, etc. were all normal things.

The humiliating history of the Portuguese king was exaggerated and the album became a hit around the world.

The most interesting thing is that the Portuguese fleet is still hidden.

Haven't found it yet.

The king is angry, but the fleet has not yet come out. It is obvious that they are rebelling. They just wait for the nine-nation coalition to withdraw so that the fleet can come back and take over Portugal.

After discussion, the nine countries each sent some people to stay in the Portuguese mainland and wait and see.

However, when the Chu army returned to the Strait of Gibraltar, they were attacked by the British, Dutch, German and French forces and suffered heavy losses.

Although Germany announced its participation in the war, it never did. France was in a mess at home. At this time, it was instigated by the British and Dutch to join the war.

Britain and the Netherlands were the worst. They picked the opportunity that Louis XII needed to establish his power and pushed France to be the leader. The leader of the Four-Nation Alliance was France.

The Chu navy was forced to take refuge in West Africa.

The mainland was immediately short of major generals, and the Allied Forces of the Four Kingdoms marched eastward to attack the mainland of Da Chu.

Zhu Youtang borrowed troops from Austria and Switzerland, joined forces with the Ottomans, and then asked the governor-general in Greece to help him defend his homeland.

The war lasted for nearly a month, and all the coastal territories fell, causing heavy losses.

Zhu Jianlu, the king of Wei, and Zhu Jiantan, the king of England, who were stationed in northern and southern Arabia, came out of the Cairo Canal to assist Da Chu.

At the same time, Osman pretended to send troops.

This scared off the four-nation coalition forces, and Dachu suffered great losses. More than 500,000 innocent people were killed or injured, which made Zhu Youtang so angry that he vomited blood.

I thought that Zhu Youtang would wait to take a breath before taking revenge.

As a result, just after the war, Zhu Youtang borrowed 30,000 troops from the Ottomans, plus 30,000 Ming troops. The Chu army scraped together 40,000 troops and sent 100,000 troops.

He sent his army to attack France, and Zhu Youtang personally led the expedition.

As soon as Louis XII ascended to power, he was forced to attack the French mainland and slap France hard in the face.

Countries without strategic depth, such as Portugal, Britain, and Dachu, have set up many traps to block enemy attacks.

But France has sufficient strategic depth and the strongest military on the European continent, so it has not prepared for this at all.

This time Dachu suddenly mobilized its troops, quickly crossed the Alps, and invaded French territory.

This time if Da Chu doesn’t rob him, he will kill him!

They set fires everywhere and killed indiscriminately. The most ferocious thing was the incendiary bombs. Box after box was lit and thrown everywhere, day and night.

Killing France made the country angry and the people resentful, which scared the shit out of Germany. By doing this, Da Chu changed the way of war.

Everyone eats on the continent of Europa and talks about the rules.

Basically, it's all about fighting and talking, and if you don't come up, it will be extermination.

This is not the first time that Key Chu has done this.

The first time was to destroy Spain, the second time was to destroy Portugal, and this time was to destroy France?

Germany immediately sent an envoy to Da Chu, willing to sign the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence with Da Chu. Please, please don't play with me like this, okay?

Zhu Youtang asked Germany to send 100,000 troops to attack France.

It would be best if this kind of feud were all tied to a sworn knot.

Besides, Da Chu doesn’t have the strength to deal with four countries together. Let’s dismember France first, and then we can take our time.

Germany immediately agreed. It would be a fool not to take advantage of this great bargain. Germany attacked the northeastern territory of France.

At this time, Britain also abandoned the Netherlands.

Tell Da Chu that it was Holland's idea to ambush Da Chu. After all, Britain and Da Chu have a honeymoon period, and the two countries are world friends.

The Netherlands was sold directly. The Four-Nation Alliance seemed to have France as the leader, but it was actually the Netherlands that was causing trouble.

To put it bluntly, they also want to get a piece of France’s pie. Zhu Youtang agreed.

France is in bad luck.

They were dismembered by the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms. Yingde was stealing money, and Dachu was killing people.

In fact, the British were also killing people, but not as ferociously as Da Chu.

Da Chu raised his banner and repaid the blood debt with blood!

The blood of 500,000 people must be repaid with ten times a hundred times the human life!

Louis XII's rule was on the verge of collapse, and he cried for help. It was all caused by that boy from Holland, and it had nothing to do with me.

Zhu Youtang refused at first.

Just kill.

But looking at the direction of his murder, we knew that Da Chu wanted the territory along the Mediterranean coast of France and bordered Spain.

The war lasted for three months, with more than a million victims, and everyone in France was afraid of being killed.

In the end, Louis XII knelt on the ground, accepted Dachu's imperial edict, and gave Dachu enough face to end the war.

In other words, when Louis XII had just ascended the throne, when Louis XI was on the throne, he would have fought a Hundred Years' War with Chu.

France ceded territory along the Gulf of Leon to Dachu, Germany also obtained a piece of territory in the northeast, and Britain also obtained the Saint-Mere-Eglise peninsula.

This peninsula was promoted by Zhu Youtang, and Da Chu also gave up some interests for this purpose.

If Britain does not go to the mainland, it will be unable to deal with him after all.

Waiting for Britain to land on the mainland and see how Da Chu deals with him, a villain who jumps sideways repeatedly.

The Ottomans lent troops to Da Chu and received some financial benefits. Switzerland gained independence by lending roads to Da Chu.

Louis XII was so angry that he had a brain attack. He spoke with a crooked eye and became a big joke in Europe.

There were also many rebels in the country, and the French emperor's throne was almost unsafe.

He is not as good as his silly brother. After all, Louis XI has a son, and he has two daughters, too, so it would be great to have daughters.

After he ascended the throne, he wanted to show off his talents, but he suffered a cerebral infarction and gave birth to a child.

The code does not allow women to be queens.

They can only find a son-in-law and let him ascend the throne.

He fell in love with François.

It was Francois the Big Nose, the most beloved emperor of France.

Because of Zhu Youtang's intrusion, this person may ascend to the throne early.

And Zhu Youtang, with this battle, completely secured the throne of Da Chu, and firmly established Da Chu as a powerful country in Europe.

Zhu Jianshen defeated Spain, and Zhu Youtang defeated Portugal as soon as he succeeded to the throne, with equally great achievements.

Zhu Jianshen always takes advantage of himself and is not very popular.

Zhu Youtang was very generous and knew how to share the cake. He said that after this war, his younger brothers were convinced of his eldest brother.

The uncles in Africa are even more willing to follow the leader.

They even turned the British island country into a continental country. This move is the most brilliant. Britain could not conquer it before, but this time it has a continental territory. Let’s see if they can manage it?

He knew very well how much the people of the island country longed for the mainland, and the Japanese country was the best example.

Why are the Japanese soldiers working so hard?

It is because the Ming Dynasty allows them to live openly and openly in the land of the Ming Dynasty. This alone is enough for them to serve the Ming Dynasty from generation to generation.

Britain is also an island country with low self-esteem.

Da Chu gave him a piece of continent and it was over to see if he took the bait or not.

Sure enough, as expected by the nine countries, the Portuguese War ended, the Invincible Fleet came back, took over the broken Portugal, and the naval admiral inherited the Portuguese throne and became the new king of Portugal.

The enthronement ceremony invited all countries to watch the ceremony, and he was willing to laugh away his grudges, which shows his big heart.

Four years of Portuguese war resulted in losses of up to 70 people.

Throughout Portugal, there was not a single intact residential house, and the entire country was destroyed.

Therefore, he was forced to clean the house before treating guests.

I have to admit that this guy is a heroic figure and can really endure it. The Portuguese Armada will not suffer much losses, and it will soon become stronger through trade.

But will the Netherlands let Portugal take away the benefits it has obtained?

It depends on how the new king of Portugal negotiates with the Netherlands.

Zhu Youtang estimated that the new king of Portugal is not simple. This guy is much more powerful than the old king.

Zhu Youtang couldn't take care of these.

Because Liu Daxia is leaving, his throne is stable, and Liu Daxia should return to Beijing to report on his duties. I am afraid that after leaving, he will never come to Dachu again.

Zhu Youtang choked up, although the two were monarchs and ministers, they were actually masters and disciples.

"Your Majesty, before leaving, I have a few words to advise you."

Liu Daxia said seriously: "I know that you are very worried about Spain and want to entrust the prince to it."

"But since you value Spain, don't mess with other territories, like the Greek island of Heraklion and the Balearic Islands."

"It's just an island. If we take it down, we'll just keep it low and petty. It's just trivial."

"If you want continental territory, you should focus on running Spain."

"Although Da Chu is powerful, it is far from the Ming Dynasty. It can support more than a hundred vassal states. That is because Your Majesty is so powerful. It is His Majesty who supports the vassal states!"

"Now that your Majesty has lived a long life, once the prince ascends the throne, he may not really care about the vassal country."

These words can be said to be treacherous.

Liu Daxia still wanted to say that because Zhu Youtang's actions were more powerful and more promising than Zhu Jianshen's, Dachu's presence in Europe was by no means limited to the peninsula, and the future would be even broader.

The Prince of Chu, Zhu Houzhao, was also smart, but Zhu Youtang wanted Liu Daxia to take him back home and ask the emperor to train him.

But the child is too young. If something goes wrong, no one can afford it.

Zhu Youtang was very sorry for this. He admired the emperor's ability to train the princes. Look at how powerful these princes in the feudal country are.

"Master, please continue." Zhu Youtang thought for a long time, nodded seriously, and called Master.

It was very useful to Liu Daxia.

"Spain and Portugal are weak, the Netherlands has become a thorn in Europa's side, France is weak, and Germany is strong."

"Now Da Chu can seek to expand its territory."

"But we must unite with France and fight against Germany."

"Coinciding with the weak to resist the strong is the basic rule of survival in Europa."

"You are still young. You must be patient when encountering difficulties. You must learn to dance with long sleeves and find hope among the princes."

"Wei Chen concludes that the new Ottoman emperor is definitely a heroic overlord. You must keep a distance from Greece. If necessary, invite the Ming army to enter Chu and abandon Greece."

"The new king of Portugal is not easy to deal with. You must be wary of him."

"The son-in-law that Louis XII of France is looking for has an excellent reputation among the people. I am worried that this person is also a powerful person."

"And the Kaiser, Europe is full of powerful enemies."

Liu Daxia sighed: "Speaking of Spain, I actually don't think you can control Spain."

"Judging from the territories of the countries in Europe, Da Chu is already big enough."

"If we continue to expand, we will definitely be a thorn in the flesh of other countries."

"Spain and Portugal are too fat for us to eat."

"The humble minister's suggestion is that you write a memorial in person and ask the prince to join the vassal state. Only Your Majesty can control the situation in Europe and allow the prince to smoothly join the vassal state in Spain."

"Of course, Wei Chen is just making a suggestion. His Majesty may not covet Spain's small territory, but Wei Chen thinks that this is the best way to break the situation."

"Great Chu needs the support of the Ming Dynasty. Similarly, Great Chu needs solid allies in Europa who can always advance and retreat with Great Chu."

Liu Daxia said seriously: "If we delay for a few more years, the situation in Spain may not change, and the country won by the previous king will be in vain."

At first, Zhu Jianshen wanted to change the title of Prince Xing, but was rejected by Zhu Youtang.

Zhu Jianshen wanted to figure it out slowly, but he suddenly died suddenly.

In fact, Spain's presence in this war is also quite high. Those who support one thing at one moment and that one the next just want to get a bone out of it.

The nations paid no attention to him.

However, after the new king of Portugal came to the throne, he gave Spain a bone, and Spain begged for mercy from Portugal.

The two masters and apprentices talked in secret all night.

The next day, Liu Daxia returned to Beijing with the ship.

An important minister like him has to take a treasure ship back to the capital. There are guards along the way, so there can't be any mistakes.

As soon as Liu Daxia left, there was news from Portugal that they wanted to form an alliance with Spain to form an alliance.

met with strong international opposition.

Zhu Youtang calculated the domestic military strength. After four years of war, Chu State was sucked dry and was unable to start another large-scale war.

We can only go to the emperor and ask the prince to conquer Spain.

The European countries now understand the Ming Dynasty's gameplay, and they are all on guard against the Ming Dynasty sealing another vassal state.

The people of Ming Dynasty were indeed capable of fighting, but in terms of fighting, the Western European countries were worthy of their reputation.

Don't play by the rules at all.

They only fight according to their world view, which is unacceptable to the whole of Europe.

In fact, throughout Europe, the Ming Dynasty was translated as Mongolia. They couldn't tell the difference between Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, they were all conquerors from the East.

For this kind of translation error, Ming Dynasty also made mistakes. Mongolia and Ming Dynasty are originally one.

Look at the Wei and Shang states after they were established, they built temples for the Mongolian Khans, but they just added the word "Huaxia" in front of "Mongolia".

There are many people of Mongolian descent in Europe who consider themselves Ming people.

Zhu Jianshen had previously explained that Mongolia was a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty was the suzerain state, but Europa did not understand it at the time.

In recent years, Ming's gameplay has become popular in Europe. They figured out that Ming was the leader of Mongolia.

The Huns, Turks, and Mongols are all Chinese, and they are all younger brothers of the Ming Dynasty. They are one family.

All countries in Europe are in trouble.

They have all been bullied by these countries.

Therefore, in Europa's book, the Huns, Turks, and Mongols are translated as forerunners, pioneers in exploring the West.

China spent fifteen hundred years exploring the entire world.

This ambition to occupy the world is really scary.

There is a strong market for anti-Mistophobia theory in Europe.

Therefore, the European countries did not strongly oppose this Spanish-Portuguese alliance, and even vaguely supported it. The Ming forces could no longer be allowed to enter Europe.

It is not a secret that both Zhu Jianshen and Zhu Youtang want to divide their sons and go to Spain.

This is treating Europa as the back garden of his home.

The Pope was the first to support the Spanish-Portuguese Alliance.

The pope and Da Chu completely broke up.

The Pope personally wrote to Emperor Ming, requesting Emperor Ming to replace him with King Chu.

To be honest, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty respected the Pope very much. After all, there were many Christian believers in Ming Dynasty. The Pope's decrees may not be very useful, but the Bible is very useful.

Religions in the Ming Dynasty are complex, and people believe in everything. On the contrary, people in the Ming Dynasty believe in this today and that tomorrow. I will believe in whichever one is beneficial to me.

Anyway, all gods are worshiped by Ming people and believed in by Ming people.

So is Dachu.

Along with Da Chu came all the religions of Ming Dynasty, including Buddhist, Taoist, Huang, Yi, Yin and other sects.

Everyone in the Ming Dynasty believes in it, Jesus also believes in it, God also believes in it, Buddha also believes in it, and God also believes in it.

The Pope was furious.

When Zhu Jianshen was in power, his relationship with the Pope was not very good, but when there was no incompatibility, he always made sacrifices and was willing to report anything to the Pope.

This made the Pope have a bad impression of Zhu Jianshen, but it was okay.

Zhu Youtang didn't have that spare time.

He never went to Rome once, never went to church, and never read a word of the Bible.

What makes the pope most angry is this.

This year, Zhu Youtang chose to have full faith in Buddhism, Taoism, the Lord, Allah, and God. He chose to have full faith.

Other sects are less powerful, but their impressions of Zhu Youzhangguan are declining.

But they were baptized by the Ming Dynasty.

The Great Emperor is like this, full of faith.

The same is true among the people, they all believe in it.

They can get used to it, but the Pope cannot. He has never seen such a shameless person.

Therefore, the Pope negotiated with Zhu Youtang and asked Rome to establish an independent country.

He was rejected by Zhu Youtang.

But it was unanimously agreed by all the countries.

Rome must own the territorial waters and strictly ordered Da Chu not to use the Pope as a shield in the future.

Last time I acted as a shield, many bishop-level dignitaries were killed, but the Pope suffered huge losses. Many ancient scriptures and ancient treasures that were thousands of years old were lost.

Because Rome was under siege.

Zhu Youtang was so bad that he simply gave up on Rome and ran out of the city with the Pope and everyone on his back. In fact, he was using them as targets.

No other nation has ever seen such a war. That is our God! You savages, put down my God!

In the past two years, the specific losses of the Pope have not yet been calculated. As for whether these losses were caused by the rioters or Zhu Youtang, no one can tell.

Zhu Youtang is not bad, he is so bad that pus appears.

This caused the Roman Pope to completely part ways with Da Chu. After the founding of the country, he immediately launched a crusade to kill Da Chu.

Zhu Youtang disagreed with the left and opposed it with the right.

Negotiations have stalled.

What Zhu Youtang means is that if the Pope doesn't like Rome, he can go to Egypt or go to the desert to practice hard. Once he applies it, Dachu will bear all the responsibility.

As for establishing an independent country, stop dreaming.

When the two sides are in a tug of war.

Zhu Youtang admired his father's vision for not choosing Rome as the capital, otherwise the poor land in Italy would have been unoccupied.

I admire the Great Emperor even more, even though he is far away in the Central Plains, he can see through the situation in Europe.

For the territories newly incorporated into Da Chu.

Zhu Youtang originally wanted to annex it completely.

But Liu Daxia told him not to be the first, to concentrate his strength together, and not to extend the front too long. The best place for expansion is the Alps.

Dividing these territories to sons and establishing small vassal states would not only ensure that France would not be able to take them back, but also allow these small vassal states to always maintain highly consistent interests with the great Chu.

When the time is right, you can cut down the feudal vassal and turn it into your own use.

After Zhu Youtang considered it for a few days, he discussed it with his staff.

He simply turned into three vassal states and granted them to his three sons. He granted them first and then asked the emperor for his opinion.

He believed that his imperial grandfather had the best strategic vision and could give him the best advice.

As for the Greek island of Heraklion, it was given to King Wei and the King of England for their help this time, as a thank you.

In fact, it was also to share Osman's anger.

These are all Ottoman territories.

King Wei and King Ying didn't care. They had the Ming Dynasty behind them and the Sui Dynasty beside them. No matter how powerful Osman was, they would have to submit if the old emperor was still alive.

Besides, he only had four sons, the eldest son was the prince, and the other three sons went to feudal states.

As for the Balearic Islands, Zhu Youtang did not keep them exclusively, but gave them to the five African kings.

This made their impression of Zhu Youtang improve again, and they were more willing to fight for the Chu Kingdom.

Da Chu divided the territory it gained and won unanimous praise from all over Europe.

They don't want another Great Chu Empire to pop up.

Now that Dachu is taking the initiative to cut off its territory, Dachu only maintains its original territory and does not expand, which just shows that their ambition for the land is not that big.

Although Zhu Youtang was a little confused, he was much better than Zhu Jianshen, who was too greedy.

It is rare that Zhu Youtang actually gained a good reputation.

Only France is crying.

That's all my territory! Who asked me if I agreed?

They still don’t understand the speed at which the Ming Dynasty occupied new lands. It is estimated that in less than a year, they will see the Ming Dynasty occupying the entire Mediterranean.

An island may have more people than a country.

Sure enough, Zhu Youtang's request for the title was approved by the emperor, and the emperor's 40th son Zhu Jianzhu was granted the title of King Chen and established the Spanish vassal.

In order to thank Da Chu, Ming Dynasty wanted to build a railway for Da Chu.

Zhu Qiyu personally wrote a letter to Zhu Youtang, telling him to give up the island territory and seek expansion on the mainland. The island would be granted to his children and grandchildren.

On the continent of Europa, the French and German armies are the strongest.

Don't focus on the French and German territories and let them go dog-eat-dog. Your goal is Eastern Europe and the Balkan Peninsula. This peninsula may seem chaotic, but in fact it is best to control it.

As long as Akito enters, he can dilute the original race and kill it bit by bit.

They are all conquered nations and are not so independent. Once they are under control, you will be the overlord.

The most important thing is that there is sufficient strategic depth here. If you capture the opposite territory, you can continue to expand eastward in the future.

Osman is like a rabbit whose tail cannot grow. I will help Sui and Dashang to eliminate Osman.

Expanding eastward is the best way.

After gaining sufficient strategic depth, you can then plan for territory in Western Europe.

The territory obtained by France will be entrusted to your sons, and they will immediately succeed the vassal. If there are not enough officials, I can send them to you.

Just occupy the territory, build fortresses, and defend your country.

As long as France goes to war against its tributary countries, Dachu will send troops to attack them, which is justifiable.

They can serve as a buffer zone between Dachu and Spain and France.

When the Spanish State of Chen was established, Ming Dynasty had a pair of fists in Western Europe that could strike hard at any time.

Spanish-Portuguese Alliance, don’t worry about it, I will solve it myself.

You only need to keep an eye on the four countries of England, France, Netherlands and Germany. Switzerland and Austria should be annexed immediately as long as there is an opportunity to completely control the southern foothills of the Alps.

Remember, this mountain is your natural dividing line in Western Europe and your greatest strategic depth.

War is not about defense; offense is the best defense.

I will recruit people from martial arts schools and martial arts schools to help you command troops and teach you new tactics in the army...

The letter is very long.

Zhu Youtang read it over and over again. He could read the emperor's worries and understand the relief inside.

These benefits were obtained by Zhu Youtang's initiative in exchange for Spain.

A railway.

Dachu will have the first railway in the vassal state.

The emperor was even more willing to send generals from martial arts schools to help him train the generals and fight for him in the future.

A Spanish, worth the exchange.

The most important thing is that after Zhu Jianzhu succeeds to the vassal, he must always think of his kindness. Zhu Jianzhu is only 24 years old this year. In the next thirty years, Chen Guo will be Da Chu's biggest help.

Zhu Jianzhen was the emperor's youngest son. The emperor would definitely be willing to make great efforts to rebuild Spain for him.

The sale is so worth it.
