Daming 1805

In the early morning of April 34th in the [-]th year of Ming Taiping.

A large number of ships appeared on the west coast of the Daqin Sea and around the island of Cyprus, outside the seas of Haifa, Beirut, Limassol and other ports.

Including a large number of various cruisers, as well as a larger number of transport ships and various passenger ships.

All ships were hoisted with the naval flag of the Ming Dynasty.

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

In the past few days, 30 troops were loaded onto ships and sent in batches around the coastline in the western part of the Great Qinhai Sea.

The goal is to completely control this coastline with the fastest speed and avoid the interference of the Western countries.

The Ottoman soldiers and officers in various ports by the sea stared at the Ming ships and flags on the sea in a daze.

They have all been notified that at noon today, urban buildings such as ports, cities, temples, and this land will be handed over to the people of Daming.

The military advisors and diplomats stationed in Ottoman from the Western countries boarded the departing passenger ship with a heavy heart and a relaxed attitude.

At the same time, in the Fengtian Hall of the Western Cape Palace.

The Ming court and all vassal states and representatives of Huangzhuang.

Representatives of imperial halls and royal families and other specially invited representatives from Britain, France, Lu and other countries in Thailand and Western countries.

Official representatives of other independent countries such as Khiva, Kazakhstan, Norway, Sweden, etc.

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

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

Zhu Jingyuan, as the representative of Daming's signature, sat on the top seat, and the representative of Osman's signature, Zayadin, sat on the right side of the long table.

This layout still shows the unequal status of the two sides, but no one has actually questioned it.

The entire anti-Ming alliance and the dead Rome can only barely correspond to the Ming Dynasty. Of course, a single Ottoman does not dare to ask for equality.

All other delegates who did not sign stand on either side of the long table to watch the ceremony.

Shen Fu unfolded the prepared four different languages ​​one by one, and handed them to Zhu Jingyuan one by one.

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

There are four agreements in total, which are written in Da Ming, Ottoman Turkish, Da Shi and Persian.

All agreement texts clearly stipulate that when there is a conflict between the interpretations of Huayue in different language versions, the plaintext version shall prevail.

In fact, the original version of the peace agreement signed by both parties is the plaintext version.

The other three copies were translated by Osman himself, for people in their own country to see and use to save their last face.

As a suture monster, the Ottoman country has a very complex language and writing system.

The royal family and the court use "Ottoman Turkish", whose grammar is Turkic, but more than [-]% of the vocabulary used comes from Arabic and Persian.

Ordinary Turks at the bottom of the Ottoman country also use "Ottoman Turkish", but most of the vocabulary used is still Turkic.

Therefore, even in the same country, the Ottoman royal family and ordinary people often cannot communicate smoothly.

Since there are a large number of Arabs in the Ottomans, and at the same time, the whole country generally believes in the heavenly religion, the religious documents and laws are all in Arabic.

At the same time, Persian is usually used in literature, art, and diplomacy, and there are some Greeks in Latin.

In the boom of Ming learning, Ottoman also imitated the Qin Dynasty and tried to popularize Ottoman Turkish throughout the country.

But Ottoman Turkish itself is a suture monster, the key is the overall weakness at the cultural level, unable to suppress Arabic and Persian.

After all, his most important religious beliefs, as well as his most attractive literary and artistic works, are presented in other languages.

There is too much resistance to the promotion of Ottoman Turkish, which is considered a foul language.

So far, the official language of the Ottomans is Ottoman Turkish, but Arabic and Persian are still widely available.

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

Relatively speaking, Daming Yayan is sufficiently standardized and mature, and it comes from the strongest country in the world and is the language that is used by the largest number of people.

It is also impossible for Daming to believe in Ottoman Turkish documents, so the two sides can only use the original version of the peace treaty in Daming.

With the help of his attendants, Osman, on behalf of Zayadin, also signed his four peace treaties in different languages ​​in turn.

Zhu Jingyuan and Zayading signed the documents in front of them and exchanged them, and then signed, stamped and preserved the documents of the other signatory country.

Then, at the request of Daming, the monarch's approval letter prepared in advance by both parties was exchanged on the spot.

In this way, the peace agreement between the two parties is officially signed, and it takes effect directly at the same time as it is signed.

The camera crews guarding the bottom have taken enough photos in succession for follow-up reporting and publicity.

Then Zayadin stood up and made a peace treaty with a public announcement.

In accordance with the will of the Ottoman Sultan and the peace treaty signed by Ottoman and Ming, the Ottoman country officially withdrew from the anti-Ming alliance.

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

These contents were originally in the peace treaty, and the territory abandoned by the Ottomans included Egypt.

But it involves other countries, so I specifically inform other countries.

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

The peace treaty stated that the land that Ottoman "directly handed over" to Daming was: Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, and the Mesopotamia.

But the land "abandoned" by the Ottomans has an additional "etc" at the end of the same enumeration description.

The content of the word "wait" mainly refers to other areas of the Caliphate Peninsula that Daming and Ottoman tacitly understood and had completely lost control of.

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

Of course, Daming wanted to have all of them, but Osman couldn't control those places, so he couldn't hand it over to Daming directly.

At the same time, Osman also had the idea of ​​provoking Daming and Taisi to continue fighting, so he only agreed to deal with the peace treaty on Shangmohu.

Osman had completely given up anyway, and it was up to Daming how much he could occupy in the future.

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

Zhu Jingyuan said a few words from the scene, and then directly read the imperial edict prepared in advance on the scene.

The state of Egypt was established, and Muhammad Ali was consecrated as Egypt's uncle, and concurrently served as the governor of Egypt.

The area controlled by Ali is quite large, but the title directly obtained is only an earl.

However, Daming clearly informed Ali that as the other party continued to pay tribute (taxes) normally, the title of title would be gradually upgraded to duke.

For Ali, the actual situation is the same as Persian, the current title is not important, and the future title is not important either.

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

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

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

So far, the war between Daming and the Ottomans has officially ended.

Representatives from both sides stood up again and left the scene one by one, and the relevant news spread all over the world again.

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

Zhu Jingyuan took the prepared notebooks and instructed the officials of the Ming Dynasty beside him one by one:

"Notify the Daqin Sea Front Army, the Dudufu of the Right Army, that the agreement has been signed and will take effect immediately.

"The landing will begin immediately, and the city will be taken over at noon local time.

"According to the plan, we will use the fastest speed to manage the land that Ottoman has to hand over, especially the island of Cyprus.

"One is to control the situation in the handover area as soon as possible, to avoid the secret interference of Thai and Western countries, and all Thai and Western military and political personnel will be driven away.

"The second is to supervise the retreat of the Ottoman troops, to prevent the other party from causing damage during the retreat, and to supervise the treasury and antiques.

"All the population of the handover area, except the Arabs and Persians, the local Turks, Greeks and everyone else, etc., the Ottomans can take them all.

"All the population on the island of Cyprus, no matter what race, must be taken away, and Daming will offer to help with transport ships.

"The Arabs and Persians in other regions, relatively secularized shallow believers, could stay there, and the rest of the population moved to Persia and Egypt.

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

"Ordinary people are divided into fields, and scholars are divided into officials, remember to fire all guns, and temporarily manage them in a military camp mode.

"As soon as possible, we will build a society for the people of Daming, even if it is purely agricultural for the time being.

"We must have people from Daming to live, and these places can truly become the land of Daming.

"Once our talks with Lucia started, the situation was definitely going to get more tense very quickly.

"I can't rule out the possibility of fighting all the countries of Thailand and Western countries again, so we must be quick."

Several clerical staff next to them wrote the records in a hurry, 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 conventions and actual regulations, the peace treaty documents signed by representatives of various countries must be sent back to their own countries, and the monarchs of their own countries will officially use their seals, and then exchange the monarch's approval letter, and then the peace treaty will take effect.

However, because of the existence of the telegram and the deliberate delay in the past month or so, the entire contents of the peace treaty between Daming and Ottoman have been repeatedly and carefully confirmed by the monarchs of both sides.

The Ming emperor would not veto, and the Ottoman sultans had no ability to veto any more, so the ratifications were prepared in advance, so this agreement took effect immediately.

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

Zhu Jingyuan's instructions were sent to the West China Sea in the form of telegrams, and the transport fleet immediately began to dock and land.

At noon, the landing Daming troops began to enter the city, and the Ottoman garrison and some residents began to evacuate.

Osman had already decided to give up these areas a month ago, and the news of the evacuation had already spread, either explicitly or implicitly.

The news that Osman accepted the request was officially announced more than ten days ago, and the local soldiers and residents had already begun to prepare for migration.

The next morning, the Daming Right Army Governor's Office basically took over the west coast of the Daqin Sea and the island of Cyprus.

Part of the local residents followed the Ottoman troops and gradually evacuated, and part of them stayed under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty.

But whether they leave or stay, the number is very limited.

This area has been fighting the world war for more than ten years, and most of the local residents have fled or died because of the war.

The people living here are long gone, and the actual number is not as many as the troops on both sides.

Compared to the coastal areas connected by sea, the inland handover process is relatively slow.

Even if Daming uses a bicycle force, it will take four days to travel all over the area, and it may take seven or eight days to fully take over.

After Zhu Jingyuan arranged various tasks, he was ready to return to the palace to rest.

As a result, at this moment, a thin official in his 30s called Zhu Jingyuan:
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment."

Zhu Jingyuan was obviously taken aback by this title, and his mind turned several times before he could react:
"You... an official of the Great Food Nation?"

The official immediately bowed his hands and said:
"Reporting to the king, the minister is Liu Zhixin, the chief of the palace, and I want to ask the king for instructions."

As the long history of the palace, Liu Zhixin is equivalent to the status of the prime minister of the country. When reporting to the king of his own family, he has to introduce himself first, which feels like no one else.

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

"Tell me, is there anything I need to decide?"

Liu Zhixin breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a rather relaxed and pleasant tone:

"Your Majesty, according to the decree issued by the imperial court in the past few days, the scope of our Caliphate has changed again.

"In the entire Caliphate area, except for the West Sea Peninsula, all other Daming lands have been incorporated into the Caliphate.

"The country of Oman in the southeast corner of the original Dashi Peninsula, after the feudal lord accepted the conditions for reformation, he was about to return to the capital of Daming, and the country also came in.

"Originally, there were only garrisoned troops, and the two river countries, which had no official officials, were also directly revoked and merged into the Caliphate.

"So now our Caliphate is the largest and only vassal state in the Caliphate area, and there are a lot of good places.

"At the same time, the court also asked the king's intention, whether to take this opportunity to move the capital.

"The minister thought that Baghdad, Jerusalem, and Damascus were all good.

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

Compared with the bitter face before, Liu Zhixin is much more energetic now.

The large-scale expansion of the Caliphate Kingdom, and the inclusion of many good places, has completely inspired this long history of the palace.

At the beginning, the people who were trapped in the food country originally thought it was a big hole, but I didn't expect it to develop within a year.

Our food country is getting better.

Zhu Jingyuan was at a loss for a moment after listening to these reports:
"Haven't the imperial court set up chief envoys in places like Jerusalem, Damascus, and Baghdad?"

Liu Zhixin seemed a little regretful and explained:
"Reporting to the king, according to the latest will, the court first expanded the Western Sea Chief Envoy to incorporate the Palestinian area.

"Another Shuanghe Chief Envoy is set up, mainly covering the two river basins, and the Chief Envoy is stationed in Baghdad.

"There is also a Western Qin military envoy, covering Syria, Lebanon, and Cyprus, and the military envoy is stationed in Damascus.

"Where the government envoys are set up within the territory of the Great Food Kingdom, the immigrants and descendants of the Ming Dynasty are under the jurisdiction of the executive envoys, and the natives are under the jurisdiction of the royal palace.

"The place where there is no administrative envoy will be under the sole jurisdiction of the Food King's Mansion."

Zhu Jingyuan nodded lightly:
"This is not the same, so the current Caliphate is very large in name, but in reality there are still so many places that we really manage.

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

Liusha County, which Zhu Jingyuan mentioned, is the current capital of Caliphate, probably near Dammam Port in Saudi Arabia in later generations.

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 kingdom of Dashi, it can only be called a county, which shows how miserable this place is.

Listening to Zhu Jingyuan's words, Liu Zhixin felt very speechless. The name was Liusha County. Is this place where people live?

How good is the coast of the Daqin Sea, you can go to the two river basins, but you can't go to Oman, why do you have to stay in Liusha County?

Just because you don't live in Liusha County, and in order to facilitate the management of the surrounding directly-administered land, did you let the officials of the palace stay there?
Liu Zhixin, who had just been excited for a while, became bitter again.

Zhu Jingyuan looked at Chang Shi's reaction, estimated the time and the situation, and could almost reveal something:

"Liu Qing, don't worry, among the immigrants organized by the imperial court, some were sent to Liusha County."

Liu Zhixin subconsciously wanted to ask, why are immigrants sent there, is it bad to go to Daqinhai?
Zhu Jingyuan did not give him the opportunity to ask questions:
"Among this group of immigrants, there are drilling craftsmen who I asked my mother to arrange to go to drill wells near Liusha County to find oil.

"I heard that around the Persian Gulf, there are oil seedlings in quite a few places, and there is likely to be oil underground in Liusha County.

"If oil can be drilled, then our Liusha County and our Great Food Country should all be supported."

Liu Zhixin knew about oil and oil wells. In some places, as long as a hole was drilled into the ground, the oil would flow out by itself.

Although the amount of this thing is not large, as long as the well is dug out, it will basically be a waste of money.

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

Zhu Jingyuan heard that there were oil seedlings, and Liu Zhixin saw it with his own eyes, so he might actually be able to drill out oil.

His own king had such a plan for a long time. Obviously, he was still thinking about Caliphate, not really just throwing it away.

This made Liu Zhixin feel a little more at ease, but he was still a little worried:

"Your Majesty, oil is currently the exclusive business of the royal consortium. Even if we drill out oil, we have to hand it over to the royal consortium, right?"

Zhu Jingyuan nodded lightly and said:

"Yes, so let's just drill. After finding the oil field, we will directly hand it over to the consortium for operation. We can just lie down and take a share."

Having said that, Zhu Jingyuan stood up and patted Liu Zhixin on the shoulder lightly:

"Maybe this negotiation is over, Liu Qing returns to Liusha County, and the consortium has already started sending money.

"In the future, we will make money by lying down in the food country."

Liu Zhixin was not overwhelmed by Zhu Jingyuan's paintings, but asked and reminded very calmly:
"Your Majesty, this drilling also costs money, if we can't get oil out, won't the money go to waste?

"Our food country... the treasury is really empty..."

Zhu Jingyuan smiled and waved his hand:
"Don't worry, I will pay the money for drilling the well. Grandpa Huang directly gave me a sum of money, and if I lose it, I won't be able to lose it to Dashiguo."

Liu Zhixin breathed a sigh of relief, and then instinctively embraced:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this minister will definitely do this job well, so that we will have an extra income in the country."

After Zhu Jingyuan appeased his patriarchal history, he subconsciously wanted to send him away, but he held back no matter what he thought about it.

This long history of the palace is his real subject, a legitimate subject, 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 leave him outside.

There will be more and more things in the follow-up food country, and I may have to use him to control the food country often.

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