Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 370 Decoy
"King Lee Eung of Joseon killed Zheng Minshi!"

Inside Pyongyang.

Several diplomats from Europe are gathering.

There was a look of excitement on his face.

As a very important "signature vassal state" in the Celestial Dynasty system, North Korea has now become a possible breach in the Celestial Dynasty system!
No, the breach has already appeared!

King Lee Eung of Joseon killed Jeong Min-shi, the leader of the Donghak Party, which marked that Li Ying completely broke with the Donghak Party and led North Korea's Yangban wealthy households in an all-round way.

And at the same time.

Daemyeon, who wants to distribute the fields of the Liangban wealthy households to the Korean people, has become the common enemy of Li Ying and the North Korean Liangban households! !

that is to say
In front of Daming's house.

A country that opposes the Great Ming dynasty system has emerged! !

The country has a population of 2000 million—almost as large as France.

If such a country is supported by the European countries,
"We want to contact Li Ying!"

"The King of Joseon will need our help."

"The Chinese Celestial Dynasty system is by no means monolithic!"

The tone of several European diplomats also became excited.

This world is no longer a world divided between East and West.

This is an era of globalization.

The exchanges and collisions between East and West are more frequent and intense than ever before.

The third day after Chung Min-seo, the leader of the North Korean Donghak Party, was killed.

Zhu Daohua got the news on the train to Tianjin.

During his trip to Tianjin, he was accompanied by an Ottoman princess Mariehna.

Marikhna was the eldest daughter of the contemporary Ottoman Sultan Selim III.

Influenced by his father Mustafa III, Selim III was determined to carry out reforms in Ottomans.

Once Selim III took the West as his teacher and designed a series of reforms in the internal affairs and military system.

But with the rise of the Ming Empire.

The success of the great empire from the East made Selim III see another way to become a powerful country!
Moreover, compared with Europe, which was close at hand, Ming Dynasty, which was far away in the east, was obviously less of a threat to the Ottoman Empire.

The reforms of Selim III were strongly opposed by the great feudal lords and the Yeniseri Army in the country.

to this end.

Selim III also hoped to get in touch with the Ming Empire, and it would be best to get diplomatic support from the Ming Empire.

in this era.

One of the symbols of good relations between the two countries is the peace.

Ottoman is barely a country in Western circles.

Bed politics is still a thing.

Mary Hena was good-looking, and she also had the exotic style that Emperor Zhu liked more, so the princess sent by Osman entered Emperor Zhu's harem smoothly.

Now he is accompanying Emperor Zhu to Tianjin to welcome the mission from the French Republic.

According to intelligence from Europe.

Napoleon has already begun preparations for a war against the Habsburg dynasty, with the goal of defeating Austria, once Napoleon has acquired France and Austria.At the same time, he also controlled Spain through marriage and was crowned emperor of Italy.

Gee tut.

A Roman Empire is about to be restored!

When Emperor Zhu thought of this these days, he couldn't eat or sleep.

Good war between Napoleon and the Anti-French Coalition.

No matter how you fight, you are going to create a Roman Empire.

To be honest, Emperor Zhu actually regretted letting Napoleon go back to France.

If there is a Roman Empire in Europe, plus there is a Ming Empire outside.

under great threat.
Not to mention a unified Europe, just France plus half of Germany, plus the Apennine Peninsula and the Iberian Peninsula.

A European country with a population close to [-] million may be formed!

This country might even get the support of some small European countries, and was encouraged to stand up against Ming Dynasty.

With such a large territory, although the population is not as large as that of the Ming Empire, it is still equivalent to one-fifth of the population of the Ming Empire. It is still a European country.

It is enough to threaten the Ming Empire's efforts to seize world hegemony in the future.

What's more, the leader of this country is called Napoleon Bonaparte.

therefore.

In today's words.

Sino-French relations are the most important bilateral relations in the world.

Emperor Zhu attached great importance to the mission from France.

And
Emperor Zhu believes that Napoleon's proclaiming himself emperor can be a fuss, and it is best to weaken this country with great potential.

When the train slowly entered Tianjin Railway Station, people in ragged clothes can be seen everywhere on both sides of the railway.

If you look carefully with a telescope, you can find that each of these people is yellow and thin, with numbness and despair on their faces.

"Your Majesty, there are so many poor people in your empire, aren't you afraid that there will be some troubles? I heard that revolutions broke out in many countries in Europe."

Ottoman Princess Maryhna said.

"Revolution? In fact, this is already a revolution. However, any change will have a painful period. The pain is only temporary. What greets them is an unprecedented bright future. They will be the most powerful empire in the world. The people, I think... they will be proud of this, and their descendants will also benefit from it." Emperor Zhu shrugged indifferently.

"You don't seem to have any sympathy for them?"

Mary Hena had traveled in various European countries as a foreign student, so when she spoke to Emperor Zhu, she was not as reserved as other concubines.

Perhaps because of this.

Emperor Zhu will only spoil her a little during this period of time.

"Sympathy?" Zhu Daohua shook his head, "I won't sympathize with them, because I am for their own good, and I am forcing them to move forward! Only by moving forward and not stopping, can China have a bright future."

Emperor Zhu laughed and pointed his finger at the crowds on both sides of the railway that were slowly advancing outside the car window, "The good life is won by oneself, not by others' charity. I will not give these people a happy life, But I will create an era for them to strive for happiness. But before this era arrives, they still have to suffer, bleed, and sacrifice."

The Chinese in the New World may be prepared to make sacrifices at any moment.

The sun shines on the walls of the Iron Mountain Village.

Iron Mountain Village is a huge village.

It is the second largest village in Jinshan Governor's Mansion after Jinshan City.

In addition to a main village, two castles are also planned to guard the mountain pass.

This is a preparation for mining iron ore and coal mines in the future.

There are iron mines in Tieshanzhai, and a hundred miles east along the river, a coal mine was discovered.

There is iron and coal. Although the reserves have not yet been proven, Lin Minghe, the governor of Jinshan, has been ecstatic.

Being able to produce steel by itself is of great significance to Jinshan Governor's Mansion.

Therefore, a battalion of regular troops was stationed at Tieshanzhai, and a group of old immigrants were hired to help guard it.

It can be said that it is quite important.

"uncle"

Inside Iron Mountain Village.

The two brothers of the Li family followed behind Li Zhongyi, a little hesitant to speak.

Seeing the appearance of these two people, Li Zhongyi knew what they were going to ask.

Tieshanzhai has been built for more than a year.

For more than a year, Li Zhongyi can be regarded as having experienced it.

He wasn't wearing a big red robe.

Instead, he wore an army uniform and tied a red silk on his arm to show his status as an official.

There are also two revolvers hanging from his waist.

The temperament of the whole person has also changed from a frail scholar to a warrior.

It is impossible to see the appearance of Wenquxing in Daqiao Town, Luojiang County, Sichuan Province.

"She's your aunt, the real one!"

Li Zhongyi frowned and said.

The two brothers of the Li family were stunned for a moment, obviously full of questions in their hearts, but after all, this was the family matter of the elders, and they didn't dare to ask.

"Don't think about it. When I came to Jinshan, she saved my life. If I didn't marry her, she would be ashamed to see others. How can a man be like this."

Li Zhongyi had a dignified face, and he didn't know what was going on in his heart.

"Uncle..Auntie, she is...but"

"You said murder?" Li Zhongyi turned his head, "It's good to get used to it. From now on here, murder is a common thing. If you don't dare to kill, you should go back to Sichuan as soon as possible. Everyone here must survive. , you have to become a wolf!"

As Li Zhongyi said, something seemed to sound: "You two are fluent in writing and ink. It is easy to get an official here, and you will become an official in the future. Let me tell you that the people here are not sheep. Being an official here is the same as being an official in Sichuan." It's different. Don't put on any airs of being a scholar in the future, or you will be blacked out, and your uncle and I have nothing else to do."

It turns out that I dare not do evil because I am afraid of being blacked out.

The two brothers suddenly realized.

Think about it too.

Even people like Xu Aju ran around carrying heads.

After getting married, she doesn't stay at home to care for her husband and raise her children. Instead, she goes out to hunt for heads.

It's really a bit out of character.

But think about it differently, how could my second uncle dare to take care of it.

Just now.

Xu Aju walked in.

"Second aunt."

The two brothers greeted each other hurriedly.

Xu Aju nodded and said to Li Zhongyi: "Husband, Battalion Commander Zhang is here."

"Come in quickly!"

Li Zhongyi hurriedly stood up and said.

"Master Li, there is a task coming from above!"

Zhang Jin has now been promoted to be the battalion commander, but he didn't look very good when he came in.

"what happened?"

"The higher-ups want us to send grain to the coal village."

The coal village is a village on a coal mine. Thanks to the connection of the river, the coal after mining can be placed on a wooden raft and flow down the river, directly reaching the Iron Mountain Village.

There are more than 2000 miners in the coal village, all of whom are full-time workers who need to send food to Jinshan Governor's Mansion.

'What?When is this, and you still want to deliver food? ! '

Li Zhongyi said in surprise.

"Why not ship it?"

"Why do you say?"

Zhang Jin shook his head with a solemn expression.

"you mean"

"That's right, the superior wants us to be bait, before this winter comes, we will catch Bai Yi who is hiding in the woods!"

Li Zhongyi's face also turned serious.

according to intelligence
From the south and east there are several infiltrating streams of European adventurers.

"Will it be too risky?"

Zhang Jin shook his head: "There is no way to take risks. These people are contacting the Albanian tribe. Even if we don't take the initiative to attack, they are very likely to do something this winter."

The team escorting food and grass left Tieshan Village at dawn.

The journey on the first day was uneventful.

The journey reached dusk, and after nightfall, they camped and rested.Dine by the dim moonlight.The accompanying Ming army officers and soldiers were on duty in shifts.

The two Li family brothers also followed.

Li Zhongyi told them that if they want to survive in this environment, they should try not to be afraid of things.

"You follow me to the Meishan Village, and if you go back to Jinshan City, it will be considered that you have been gilded."

Li Zhongyi said.

So now the two of them are holding a revolver on their waists, eating dried salted fish and corn cakes with Li Zhongyi.

Eyes are also aiming into the woods.

In the dense forest, the flames flickered.

It may be a patrol squad of the Ming army, or it may be a white man or an aboriginal barbarian ambushing in the woods.

The civilians who are responsible for transporting food are more or less armed with daggers, daggers, sickles, axes, wooden spears and foreign guns.

In the eyes of the Li family brothers.

These people, unlike their sharecroppers in Sichuan, do not have that submissive temperament in them.

They were all dressed in warm furs, and they all looked solid, talking and laughing as they walked, not looking at the woods by the roadside, and not one shivering.They often carry several weapons alone, usually a foreign gun, a dagger or a short knife.Also a sickle or axe.

Unlike civilians,.

It is similar to those Ming army soldiers.

It is very likely that they have killed people, and there are more than one!
The dinner that day was as rich as usual, with steaming pancakes and fragrant braised pork.

After more than two years of development, Jinshan Governor's Mansion is no longer short of food.

The price of food and meat is very cheap, only about [-]% of that in Sichuan - there is no shortage of land here!
On average, one immigrant can get 15 mu of land, and usually they will occupy some more, reaching about 20 mu.

Moreover, these arable lands are fertile black soils that are about to yield oil, and they can be harvested casually.

Farming here is also an easy job. No one can pull the plow by himself, because every household has several horses.

They will use horses to plow the land.

Under normal circumstances, collective farms organize households to cultivate collectively, because some households in these farms are always conscripted to perform various "paid labor", so they have no way to cultivate their own land.

Moreover, driving the horses to pull the plow is not a tiring job, and getting an extra income is of course everyone's happy.

As for farm work such as weeding and catching insects, it seems that no one does it.

The only busy and tiring time is the harvest season. On average, a strong laborer needs to harvest forty or fifty acres of land.

Although it was quite tiring, their harvest was something that ordinary farmers in Han could not believe.

Xu Aju was also in the line. She ate the pancake roll bit by bit, and sipped the rice wine from a gourd from time to time.

This was his father's favorite drink during his lifetime. When he was in Sichuan, his family was very poor.He couldn't even eat enough, but Xu Fugui still had to drink a little every day.

just now.

The family is very wealthy, and her husband is an official, but Xu Aju is very strong, because he still has an old lady and a stupid brother to support—in today's terms, Xu Aju is a helper, er, a helper demon, but There is no other way, my mother and elder brother are both mentally ill, so even if Xu Aju is married, she still has to take care of her mother's affairs.

But she doesn't want Li Zhongyi's money, she can make money by herself, so she can feel at ease when she spends the money she earns!
