Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 865 The Allied Forces of West, France and Portugal, the Influence of Immigrants from Ming Dynasty

After dinner, Auntie Zhu brought a large screen to connect to her mobile phone, so that it was convenient for Zhu Cijiong's family to video chat with Auntie Zhu and Hao Guangming.

After the video was connected, Zhu Hechen and Hao Xiying were also on the other side. It was a reunion video of two families.

After exchanging pleasantries, Aimee Zhu and Zhu Cijiong couldn't help chatting about state affairs, or military and political affairs in the Americas.

Hao Guangming was naturally involved in it, and Aunt Zhu was also listening with interest—after all, she also served as the supervisor of the Ming Empire for more than half a year, and learned a lot of information from the Internet in later generations, and now she also has knowledge about state affairs. Insights.

Seeing this, Fu Xue asked the two side concubines and the nannies to leave with the children, and she poured tea and water by herself.

"Yan Yingyuan said in the telegram that ten days ago you led the king's army to pull out the last three Mexican strongholds in Chihuahua?"

Aimee Zhu mentioned Chihuahua, a state in northern Mexico in another time and space. Zhu Cijiong had a map of another time and space in his hand. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "That's right."

He was not surprised that Aimee Zhu learned about this from Yan Yingyuan.

The Ming Empire is now not only sealing off vassals to open up America, but also following the example of opening up Yingzhou and establishing the North American capital.

In order to escort all the vassals and North American capitals who are in the Americas, Admiral Yan Yingyuan is now leading the First Fleet and Second Fleet of the Dongyang Navy to control the west coast of North America and the west coast of Central America, and is competing with the Spanish fleet for control of the Pacific Ocean in South America right.

With the current strength of the Daming Navy, it is natural that they are not afraid of the Spanish fleet that has begun to decline.

It's just that the Spanish fleet has land support in South America, while the Dongyang Navy does not. In addition, the imperial court has no plans to set foot in South America, so the Dongyang Navy stopped at the west coast of Central America.

If you don't care about the gains and losses after the war, the Ming Dongyang Navy can beat the Spanish fleet so that they dare not show up in the Pacific Ocean.

In fact, Spain does not have many warships on the Pacific side, and mainly relies on land troops and coastal defense artillery for defense.

On land, the coalition forces composed of Dingwangling, Yongwangling, and North American Capital Division are constantly expanding their territories and strongholds.

The army and navy sometimes need some military cooperation. As the admiral of the Dongyang Navy, Yan Yingyuan knows Zhu Cijiong's latest military progress and reports it to Aimee Zhu. It is a normal thing.

Aimee Zhu said: "Although Spain has lost its dominance in Europe, it is still the strongest colonial country in America among European countries.

Their two viceroyal districts of Peru and Mexico have been established for hundreds of years, and they are already deeply entrenched in the Americas.

Although Chihuahua is only the northern fringe of the Viceroyalty of Mexico, it has only been developed for a few years, but now that the strongholds have been removed, I am afraid that the Governor of Mexico in Spain will not let it go. "

Zhu Cijiong smiled and said, "They come whenever they want, can we be afraid of them?"

Auntie Zhu reminded: "Spain, France, and Portugal are united in the Americas now, and they all regard me as the number one enemy, and their coalition forces are definitely not bad, so don't be careless."

Only then did Zhu Cijiong show a solemn look, nodded and said: "I know this, sister Huang can rest assured."

Then he asked again, "Isn't Spain, Portugal, and France at odds with each other in Europe? Especially Portugal, which has only been independent from Spain for a few years, how can they put aside their past differences and unite with each other in America?"

At this time, Aimee Zhu couldn't help but said: "Brother Wang has been a feudal clan for several years, don't you understand that there are only interests between countries?
The relationship between these three countries in Europe is already complicated, and the grievances and grievances are entangled.Now my Daming is like a fierce tiger descending in the Americas. It is hard to resist. It is normal for them to join forces to fight. "

On the other side, Hao Guangming thought that the new king of Portugal, Alfonso VI, succeeded to the throne three years ago, and Spain tried to take the opportunity to take back Portugal. In his history of time and space, he was defeated by Portugal in two consecutive battles. bankrupt the plan.

In Aimee Zhu's time and space, because of the Ming Empire, Spain obviously made it a top priority to fight against Ming in the Americas, which led to the formation of the Spanish, French, and Portuguese American coalition forces.

It should be noted that originally Portugal and France competed with Spain for colonies in the Americas, and it was not easy for them to unite with each other.

After talking about dealing with the Spanish, French, and Portuguese American coalition forces, several people chatted about the current situation of Ding Wangling.

The main thing was that Aimee Zhu was chatting with Zhu Cijiong. Aimee Zhu and Hao Guangming actually knew about the situation of King Ding.

In the past six years, Ding Wangling has emigrated from Daming three times, and has immigrated nearly 10 people to America in total.

Each immigrant was about 3 people, but [-] of them were former Korean citizens, and [-] were women who were bought from famous Japanese.

Because the immigrants from Daming are mainly young and strong men.Although Dingwangling has introduced many policies to encourage Indian women to marry Ming people, the people in Dingwangling's register are still more male than female, and many of them are single.

Therefore, in the past few years, the four vassal princes including Zhu Cijiong and Zhu Cizheng have been allowing the immigrant fleet to buy women from Japan by the way.

Judging from the information sent back from Japan by Jin Yiwei Beizhen Fusi, the purchase of women from Japan by the kings of the Ming Dynasty actually changed the customs of Japan.

In the past, boys were the most important childbirth in Japan. If the family could not support many people, it was common for a baby girl to drown.

But now there is a trend of patriarchy in Japan, and ordinary people are happy to have a girl.

Because the girl is brought up, even if she has no abilities, she can still sell herself to the princes of the Ming Dynasty, so that the family can get a "large sum" of income.

If you think this is a cruel thing for Japanese women, you are very wrong.

In fact, every time the king of Ming Dynasty led a sea ship to emigrate, the Japanese women all rushed to sign up with the officials in charge of the matter.In order to obtain "immigrant qualifications", some women give money and bribes, and some even sell their bodies.

Because for these Japanese women, being able to be immigrated overseas and marrying a Ming man in the Ming Dynasty is equivalent to changing their fate at once - at least they will not starve to death like some people who stayed in Japan.

For Japan, tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of women are immigrated every year, which naturally has a negative impact.

That is, there are fewer and fewer adult Japanese women (over 14 years old), and more and more bachelors.

The solution to this problem by the Tokugawa shogunate and the major names is very simple, and that is to launch a war.Of course it wasn't fighting against Daming, but the big names fighting each other to consume the extra young and strong men among the common people, so that the contradiction between more men and fewer women would disappear.

In six years, as many as 13 people immigrated from Dingwangling, and even more naturalized Indians, as many as 10,000+!
In other words, there are now nearly 40 registered people in the Dingwang collar!
The term "common people" is not used wrongly. Whether it is in the Dingwangling or other Minglings, when naturalized natives and immigrants from other countries are eligible to become the people of the Mingwangling, the first thing to do is to choose a surname for themselves.

In the past, commoners in North Korea and Japan did not have surnames, but now they have immigrated to the Daming Kingdom, and they all have surnames. In their hearts, they really have raised their class.

As for the natives in Yingzhou and America, they only feel novelty about having a Ming surname, and have no other ideas.

Because of Zhu Cijiong's enthusiasm for fighting, the territory of Ding Wangling has also expanded extremely rapidly in recent years.

Judging from Hao Guangming's time-space map of North America, Dingwangling's current territory mainly includes the southern third of California, Arizona, New Mexico, Chihuahua in Mexico, and Baja California. most.

However, some of these places were established by North American capitals, such as La Paz, the capital of Baja California on the peninsula, which is now called Zhulang Qianhusuo.

In addition, at the junction of Dingwangling and Yongwangling, the North American Capital Division also set up three thousand household offices, extending in a curve to the central part of North America.

Several people chatted for more than an hour, but Zhu Cijiong and Zhu Aimee still had some unfinished feelings.

But Fu Xue repeatedly reminded that it was getting late.

Zhu Cijiong immediately smiled and said: "I didn't expect my younger sister to have so many opinions on military affairs. Although I wish I could talk with my younger sister at night by candlelight, but it's getting late today, so let's talk tomorrow."

"Okay." Aunt Zhu nodded, "Brother Wang just came back today, so he should rest early. However, when Brother Wang goes to the south to fight against the Western, French and Portuguese Allied Forces, he must take me with him."

Zhu Cijiong laughed, and said: "If you can get the consent of the emperor, I will have no objection."
