Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 401: Yan State, Dashun State, Yue State, Xiang State, Yu State: Finance and War

As the New Culture Movement spread among the people, Confucianism and orthodoxy encountered unprecedented pressure.

However, the Kong family, which should uphold the orthodoxy the most, is currently seeking to gain vassal status outside the Kong family.

Throughout the world, the Ming Dynasty has more than fifty nearby vassals and over a hundred distant vassals.

In these vassal states, the Kong family did not have a place.

The main reason is that the old emperor hates the Kong family.

When the Confucian family was forced to move from Qufu to Siping, the commotion was very unpleasant. The literati who uphold the religious tradition of the Confucian family still revile the old emperor.

The clan kings and other vassals all turned a deaf ear to the Confucius family.

Almost every year, the Confucius family would give gifts to officials in the DPRK and central government, and then go to the imperial court, hoping that the Confucius family would establish orthodoxy in the outer vassal states.

The Supervisor of Ceremonies did not dare to approve, so he sent them all to the old emperor for approval, but the old emperor refused to issue them all.

In the Xia Kingdom, there are entertainment and fun places everywhere, and the people mainly focus on entertainment. This is a country that relies on minerals. By mining alone, it is richer than the rest of the world.

There is no shortage of water in the Xia Kingdom. The great plateau and crisscrossing rivers of the Xia Kingdom nourish the entire North America.

In order to control the territory in the north, Xia State engaged in the entertainment industry here.

But the Kong family immigrated secretly and moved all over the world.

Xia Guo has none.

The climate in grassland areas is relatively arid, which requires increasing irrigation projects and diverting more water to paddy fields.

Xia Guo is also secretly trying to relax other controls.

Zhu Youyang was having so much fun that he couldn't miss Shu.

The Mississippi River runs mainly north-south, nourishing the Great Lakes and the Mississippi Great Plains. The country's territory is mainly on the east bank of the Mississippi River.

The Kong family was just wishful thinking. The old emperor taught by words and deeds, and the vassal king would not dare to go against his father no matter how he failed to do his job properly.

Among all the vassal states in the world, Xia Kingdom is the only one that does not have a temple to worship Confucius.

Zhu Jianmo does not worship anyone except his own ancestors.

Zhu Youyang's biggest feeling in Xia Kingdom was that he was rich! rich!

At the urging of officials, Zhu Youyang reluctantly embarked on the journey and set off for Qiguo.

For example, the Zhou Kingdom followed the Ming Dynasty and even renamed a domestic mountain Mount Tai to enshrine it.

The Xia Kingdom was different from the Ming Dynasty in every aspect.

In order to get rid of the influence of Chinese culture, he secretly began to change place names. San Francisco, Los Angeles, Vancouver, and Seattle should have existed in European place names, but they will appear in the Chinese cultural circle.

The economic aggregate of these three provinces is very good. With a population of more than 10 million, they have created an economic aggregate equal to that of tens of millions of agricultural people.

Such artificially created plains are ecologically fragile, have low error tolerance, and are easily affected by weather, hydrology and other factors, leading to destruction.

Gambling is even legal in these three provinces.

Qi Guo, after the six kingdoms changed their territories, the territories were re-divided.

After the prince came to power, he followed the old emperor's way of governing, and there was almost no hope for the Kong family's external vassal.

The Kong family was established in various major vassal states.

The three provinces of Xia Kingdom do not have a combined population of 10 million, which is not even as large as a city in the mainland. By the way, Xia Kingdom does not use the province-prefecture-county system, but uses the province-city-county system.

What is now curbing the rise of the Xia Kingdom is how to change the climate in the Great Plains.

It exclusively enjoys Lake Superior and Lake Michigan among the five Great Lakes, plus the southern shore of Lake Huron. It has the Canadian Plains to the north and the bifurcation of the Mississippi River as its boundary to the south.

The three provinces of Alaska, Yukon, and British Columbia in the north are almost uninhabited and are all permafrost.

For example, Zhou Guo wants to build an entertainment center on an offshore island.

In North America, the Xia Kingdom focused on attacking the influence of the Confucian family. The Xia Kingdom did not respect Confucius, Mencius, Cheng, and Zhu as Confucian orthodoxy. There was no official orthodoxy, and no temples were built to offer sacrifices.

The old emperor hated the Kong family, and his sons did not dare to get close to the Kong family. All the princes had the experience of being pro-government. They had read the memorials of the Kong family. In addition to the direct influence of their father, they saw the Kong family being so disgusting. Speaking of these words, it is inevitable that there is a feeling in my heart that the descendants of the saints are in decline.

Portland, on the northwest coast of Xia Kingdom, is the largest genetic research base in Xia Kingdom.

In addition to the Taimiao Temple, there are no other temples in the Xia Kingdom.

But the Kong family has always spared no effort in seeking political power.

Zhu Youyang did not realize that the officials of Honglu Temple could see it, and it was obvious that Xia Guo wanted to get rid of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Xia Guo's main research direction is to adapt crops to the climate and cultivated land. Plant genetic technology is Xia Guo's main scientific research direction.

The reason for the formation of grassland is not only related to the soil depth, but also directly related to the climate.

Therefore, the Confucius family sits on the sidelines in various countries.

If it weren't for the officials' urging, Zhu Youyang would have wanted to play in Xia Kingdom.

There are Confucius temples in other countries, but there are no descendants of the Confucius family. The Xia Kingdom has none, and there is no Xiansheng Temple.

King Qi and King Yu also had large areas of grassland and followed up on genetic technology research.

Don't forget that those who established a family in a vassal state must either be a family of important ministers in the court, a noble family, or a close official of the vassal king. If you don't jump to the political center, don't dream of a political family.

He was a neighbor of Yu State, Song State, Xia State and Yue State.

It can be said to be the thoroughfare of the five countries.

Therefore, the territory of Qiguo is not large, with only more than 4 million people, but it is the country with the most developed commerce and trade. Qiguo does not face the sea on the east and west coasts, but it does face the sea on the Hudson Bay. However, it is frozen all year round and has no natural harbor.

Kaiguo is the only country among the seven countries in North America that does not have a natural harbor.

However, Zhu Jianxun had friendly relations with Xia, Song and Qi. He leased a natural harbor in each of the three countries and purchased an island in Rui as an enclave of Qi.

Qiguo is the country that is best at doing business among the seven countries.

Similarly, Qiguo is also a country with extremely rich resources. It has basically all kinds of resources, and iron resources are the most abundant.

Xia State imported the most iron ore from Qi State.

The area of ​​cultivated land in Qi State was not large. When Xia State converted grasslands into cultivated land, Qi State also followed suit. The entire grassland in North America was converted into cultivated land.

With a total population of 3.1 million, it is the only country with negative population growth in the past three years.

Because the people of Qi State are really good at doing business.

People who know how to do business will travel around the world, and their nationality will be gone, and they will return to Ming Dynasty.

Most of the new immigrants are poor, coming to Qiguo to make money.

This has resulted in negative population growth in Qiguo and a decline in total economic value year by year.

In the 2.4th year of Jingtai, Qiguo's fiscal revenue exceeded million. In the th year of Jingtai, Qiguo's total fiscal revenue reached million.

This is after the economic aggregate declined.

According to previous predictions, the total economic volume will exceed 500 million, but the result is only half, indicating that something is wrong.

Qi Guo has the title of North American Factory.

Kaiguo was also the first country in North America to engage in industrialization. Its industrialization was completely spontaneous because one of the laws of Kaiguo stated that private property is sacrosanct.

This law is different from the Ming Law.

The Ming Law protects private property, but there is absolutely no such word as sacrosanct.

With this law, confiscation of homes and genocide will no longer exist.

At that time, the northern part of the Mississippi Plain in the Qi Kingdom was full of swamps. To fill up the swamps, a large amount of capital was needed, as well as people to cultivate the land.

Qiguo has no ports to dock, so it is very difficult to attract immigrants. Basically, immigrants will disembark on the east, west, and south coasts, and then be intercepted by other countries.

That’s why private property is sacrosanct.

Sure enough, it attracted a large number of wealthy households in the country. Qiguo's rapid economic development in recent years is closely related to these wealthy households.

But these people made money in Qiguo, and if they don't spend any money in Qiguo, they take it all home.

As a result, Qiguo's economy seemed to be doing well, but in fact it was full of problems. Some provinces and cities were unable to make ends meet, and their finances were in very bad shape.

In the past two years, Qiguo has been restricting immigration, which has caused negative growth in Qiguo's population, which is a net outflow.

It’s not that she didn’t give birth to a child, it’s that she left.

King Qi Zhu Jianxun also launched a movement to restore the ancient system. He wanted to turn Qi State into a part of Chinese history and give the people of Qi State a sense of belonging. At that time, King Qi went to the central government and requested that the king's title be changed to Yan.

What a courage!

King Yan, that was the royal title used by Emperor Taizong.

As a result, the movement to restore the ancient system still failed to save people's hearts, but the central government approved the change of the king's title of Qi State. From then on, Qi State became Yan State.

The central condition is that everything in Yan State must be restored to the ancient system.

The names of places, mountains and rivers, streets and shops have all been restored to the ancient system.

King Qi changed the name of the country. In the eyes of King Xia, this was the old emperor's further control of the vassal state. The central government never used military control to control the vassal state, but a coinage power and a cultural right firmly controlled the vassal state within the Han cultural circle. middle.

Zhu Jianxun was not as ambitious as King Xia, he just wanted to be a vassal king.

However, the wealthy households in China are really running away.

In the 63rd year of Jingtai, the State of Yan restored its ancient system and implemented the most stringent financial controls, prohibiting immigration, prohibiting outbound consumption, etc., with more than 100 restrictions.

The effect was remarkable. The flight of wealthy households was forced to end, but problems arose in the economy, which suffered a slight decline.

King Yan Zhu Jianxun didn't care about that.

The money is not allowed to leave anyway.

After restoring the ancient system, King Yan held a Mount Tai ceremony and invited six North American kings to watch the ceremony. However, none of them came, which made King Yan very embarrassed.

What era are you in, why are you still doing this?
Now it's all about the economy. Looking at Xia Guo's ambition, isn't the economy still doing well?

The people now want to be rich. Who cares who their ancestors are? As long as they can get rich, they can recognize whoever they are as their ancestors.

The people of Yan want to run away, who cares what etiquette the King of Yan will restore.

Since Yan State implemented controls, North America's economic and financial centers are moving outward. In the future, Yan State will probably only rest on its laurels. As domestic sentiment becomes fierce, it will either let go or start a war.

As a country in the center of North America, Yan State is the least able to fight.

From ancient times to the present, only Cao Cao has occupied Cao Cao's belly, and he almost unified the world. Zhu Jianxun believed that he was not as capable as Cao Cao, so he should just engage in trade.

At the beginning of the 64th year of Jingtai, the State of Yan issued corresponding policies.

The country is transforming private enterprises into state-owned enterprises.

Enterprises like those that may flee the country are subject to state control, to be precise, the assets are nationalized, and the clauses on the sanctity of private property are deleted.

The Yan State, which was extremely prosperous for a while, was destined to decline.

Changing orders in the morning and at night is a taboo in politics.

The State of Yan prospered because of its sanctity and inviolability, but also declined because of its sanctity and inviolability.

Zhu Youyang's intuitive experience in Yan State was that it was a carnival before the decline.

After all, Yan State lacks national cohesion.

A country without cohesion that only uses legal coercion will only bottom out and the people will resist policies and laws.

The prescription Zhu Jianxun prescribed to the country was very inappropriate.

As a financial center, without the support of strong national strength, temporary wealth will be fleeting.

If you poke it a little, it will pop, like a bubble.

And with the backing of strong national power, it is difficult to achieve unregulated finance, unless this is an immigration country and cannot be regulated. Once it is regulated, no one will immigrate.

The outflow of capital from Yan State was not without attacks from the financial market. There were other large capitals that bought the bottom of Yan State's stock market, causing capital outflows.

Zhu Jianxun didn't understand economics. He blocked wherever there was a problem. As a result, the bucket burst and the economy collapsed.

The financial center of Yan State declined, but it moved to Song State.

King Zhu Jiansu of Song was the twenty-ninth son of the emperor.

He has always been dissatisfied with his king's title, and has been evacuating the central government. He wants to change the country's name to Dashun, which will be on par with the Ming Dynasty and be called Dashun.

Starting from the Yuan Dynasty, it was a two-character country title. It was not chosen from the vassal states of the Spring and Autumn Period, but it got rid of the shackles of history and turned a new page.

Song State has the richest land in North America!
The entire Gulf of Mexico Great Plains and the Mississippi Plains are basically within the territory of the Song Kingdom. In addition to the mainland, there is also an enclave, Victoria Island, an almost uninhabited island in the northern permafrost area.

Song State is a neighbor of Xia State, Yan State, Yue State, and Yu State, and faces Rui State across the sea. Its population is 4.1 million, the largest in North America.

Therefore, the Song Kingdom changed its national name to the central government, and went beyond the standard and gave itself a two-character national name, Dashun.

Zhu Youyang came with the imperial edict.

When the title of the country was sent to the court, all the important officials in the court scolded Zhu Jiansu for being immature and forgetting about his mother country just after he became rich.

Dashun is completely equal to Ming Dynasty. Doesn't he want to be a vassal state?

However, the old emperor could see clearly that today's feudal country was just a symbol. After his death, all countries would change their country names.

Dashun, just call if you call.

It can be stopped now, but how many years can it be stopped?

After all, it's the prince who can't do it. If the prince is outstanding, who would dare to go to Shu to change the country's name? What's more, Song State is just a small vassal state, and they dare to provoke the central government. Does this mean that the prince has failed?

Therefore, the old emperor issued an edict to allow the Song Kingdom to be changed into the Dashun Kingdom.

In the past, the old emperor still thought that the whole world could use the same reign name, but now looking at the ambitions of the kings, he knew that it was impossible.

Currently, the Jingtai era name is commonly used, because he is their father.

Once a new crown prince ascends the throne, each country will use its own reign name.

So, how should this world evolve?
The old emperor originally wanted to use the birthday of Emperor Taizu as the first year, but thousands of years of Chinese history would be lost, so he simply used the Yellow Emperor's calendar to mark the year.

It is universally applicable and can be accepted by descendants of the Chinese people all over the world.

King Song successfully became King Dashun, and his one-character king title became a two-character king title. If he were the king of the inner vassal, this would be a downgrade, but if he were the king of the outer vassal, it would be an upgrade.

It means that Ming's control over the world is relaxing.

Dashun is not an ancient name. Like the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, it is a created country name.

Then countries must be more enthusiastic.

Just like before Emperor Taizu ascended the throne, he was the King of Wu, and later Jianyuan became the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

The king's title of each country is only used temporarily. Once it changes from a vassal state to an independent country, it will become a two-character country title.

For example, Da Zhou, Da Xia, Da Shang, Da Wei, Da Shun, etc.

Xia King Zhu Jianmo now saw his father's broad mind. If it were him, he would never be able to be so generous.

This is not a matter of changing the country's name, but represents Ming's control over the world.

The old emperor was willing to relax his control over the vassal states.

It's not that the Ming Dynasty doesn't have the strength, but the old emperor sincerely hopes that all countries can be fine and live in peace with the Ming Dynasty.

This just shows that the old emperor was dissatisfied with the prince and even worried about the prince taking office.

So the old emperor is forming a good relationship.

I hope his other sons can help the prince when the Ming Dynasty is in crisis.

Zhu Youyang traveled to North America and found that North America was too rich. Except for clearing land, filling swamps, and cleaning up wild animals in the early stages of construction, there was almost nothing special done.

There are no natural enemies in the extremely vast plains, grain growing areas and grasslands.

This is also the reason why Xia and Yan were able to transform grasslands into cultivated land. There were no northern nomads and no natural enemies of poison. They were absolutely chosen places.

Apart from tornadoes, there are few other natural disasters in North America.

The main reason for tornadoes is that the blocking mountains on the east and west sides are not high enough, and there is a large plain in the middle. When strong winds blow in, tornadoes, hurricanes and other weather conditions will naturally form.

Dashun country, there is another problem.

Even the plain areas are overrun with wild animals, and they have been cleared up over the years. Therefore, guns are not prohibited in Dashun. People can buy guns in supermarkets. Every year, the court organizes hunting for people, holds hunting conferences, and gives hunting rewards and so on.

Therefore, Dashun has the most shooting cases in the world.

Ming Dynasty is a country that strictly prohibits guns.

Almost all vassal states banned guns.

Dashun also banned guns a few years ago, but later it was because of the proliferation of wild animals that they banned guns. Like the five countries in Oceania, except for Wu, all of them banned guns.

This kind of new land will take a long time to clear and manage. If strict control is implemented, the court will need to spend money to manage it, and the cost of management will be greatly increased.

At this stage, it is of course necessary for the people of the world to work together to mature a piece of raw land and turn a piece of new land into a livable treasure.

The financial center of Yan State was transferred to Dashun State.

In the past two years, Dashun has become the financial center of the entire Americas, because Dashun's national policy is freedom, especially financial freedom.

If you want to become a financial center, you must relax financial controls. You cannot check the source of money, and you cannot control where the money goes. Only in this way can you become a financial center.

The Yan State controlled finance and prevented wealthy people from fleeing the country, which caused the financial center to move southward.

Dashun country is different.

Zhu Jiansu knows one thing very well. Don't regard yourself as the overlord of the Americas. Only by lowering your attitude can you make money.

Hegemonic countries like those will never become financial centers.

Because they are not free enough.

If you want freedom and want to be a hegemon, then you need a federation to achieve relative freedom.

Otherwise, the financial center cannot be built.

Because the money in the financial center is not clean.

Just like before the Yan State, corrupt officials from various countries invested in it and earned this kind of black money, so they kept the Yan State's economy high.

To put it bluntly, the essence of financial centers is money laundering.

The money just circulates around you.

If you want to stay, you are thinking too much.

Unless your financial center is a hegemonic country, don't even think about it. People are just walking around here without thinking about who will exchange their own money for your country's currency. Are you crazy?
The Ming Dynasty also had a financial center, but this kind of financial center was promoted by the imperial court and was not a real center.

A hegemonic country like the Ming Dynasty was destined not to be a financial center.

Because it must be controlled. The financial center of Yan State was formed spontaneously. Because commerce and trade were developed and it was a central country, officials from various countries were willing to spend and invest. The rising tide lifted all boats and it became a financial center.

And Yan State began to regulate finance.

The center was immediately transferred to Dashun country.

The State of Yan may not have noticed it himself, and the domestic finance was in rapid decline. By the time King Yan found out, all the hot money in the market would have disappeared.

Capital is profit-seeking, and hot money follows the situation. As long as the situation is not good, it will be withdrawn immediately.

Zhu Jiansu knew this very well. He did not want to participate in the struggle for hegemony, he just wanted to be a rich country, because the Dashun Kingdom lacked strategic depth. The strategic location was a few rivers and a small number of mountains, all of which were large plains.

Dashun country belongs to cotton, so Zhu Jiansu set up a financial center.

Because this kind of financial center is something that no one in the world dares to attack.

No matter how fierce Xia Guo is, if you try to attack the financial center, the country will definitely not be able to produce enough work, and you will end up feeling lonely.

Because everyone’s money is here. If Dashun is destroyed, who will ask for our money?

Dashun is still engaged in banking in order to protect himself.

Attracting money from North and South America to deposit into its bank, it mainly absorbs shady deposits, becoming the Switzerland of America, leaving Switzerland with no way out.

Zhu Jiansu is not afraid of collapse either.

At least it's wider.

In fact, Zhu Jianxun is just messing around. If he allows the financial industry to develop, the financial center will not be transferred. Immigrants will immigrate. Freedom, how can there be a financial center without freedom?

If you leave today, someone will come in tomorrow. This is a cycle.

Everyone in the world is creating value every minute, which means they are creating money, so there must be a lot of money that cannot be seen in the light that needs to be released. How can it be released?
You have to come out of the financial center.

Just say that Xia Guo will not control it? What a beautiful thought.

If you go around like this, the money will be clean.

And if there is more money, capital will naturally be attracted in, the financial market will be bigger, and credibility will be established.

The stupidest thing about King Yan is control. There may be economic problems at this stage, so long as we can get through it, it will be fine.

The problem may not be within the territory of Yan State. It is very likely that Xia State or Yu State is controlling money, causing problems in Yan State.

In the end, Zhu Jianxun was stupid. He looked for reasons in himself and got himself killed.

Zhu Jiansu understands economics.

In fact, Zhu Jianxun's wrong judgment was more or less caused by Dashun messing up the market behind his back, interfering with the audio-visual situation, and causing Yan Guo to make wrong judgments.

Now, the financial center is here, and Dashun will soon become rich.

Dashun is very interesting.

Such a piece of cotton actually changed its title with Ming Dynasty.

Who is supporting this?
Some envoy officials speculated that it was Zhu Jianpeng, the king of Yue.

The King of Yue was not satisfied with his country at all. Yue owned the entire east coast of North America.

From the Gulf of St. Lawrence in the north to Miami in the south, the entire Appalachian Mountains belong to the Yue Kingdom. The Yue Kingdom is a country built around a large mountain range. It owns the eastern part of the Gulf of Mexico Great Plains and the Dashun Kingdom. Territory lines are divided by vertical rivers.

The same fertile land is thousands of miles away, and it also has strategic depth. Like Daxia, it hopes to become the hegemon in North America.

This time, it must be him who persuaded King Song to change the name of his country to Dashun.

Because the country of Yue had already gone to the imperial court, they requested to change the country's name to Dongyue, which also became a two-character country name.

As a border country in America, even though there are mountains for strategic depth, it cannot break through the two countries that lie in front of it.

Even though Yan and Dashun are both plains, war has now become a modern war. Landmines can be laid. As long as enough landmines are laid, the plains can be defended, unless they can fly!

Not to mention, East Vietnam is really researching aircraft.

It turned out that this was a painting casually drawn by the old emperor.

Zhu Jianpeng believed that the old emperor had gods guiding him behind his back, and this thing would definitely be of great use in the future.

In the 59th year of Jingtai, someone in East Vietnam made a propeller aircraft and flew into the sky. However, an accident occurred and the people flying fell to the ground and died. As a result, no one was developing this project for a time.

The King of Yue invested a lot of money in research and development.

If East Vietnam wants to seize two large plains, it is impossible to rely on land troops to conquer them. Two countries without strategic depth have set up countless minefields, and it is impossible to conquer them all even at the cost of their lives.

The population of East Vietnam is the smallest among the seven countries, with only 1.9 million.

It's not that East Vietnam is not rich enough, but that the East Vietnam court does not encourage childbirth. Everything depends on the people's initiative, and there are not many rewards for having more children.

This has resulted in low public enthusiasm for childbirth.

The territory of East Vietnam is more than 1.9 million, and the population is only million. In fact, East Vietnam has a large area of ​​frozen soil in the north, and the territory of the war-friendly habitable area is only more than million square kilometers.

In the past few years, after soil replacement, more than one million square kilometers of permafrost areas were obtained, so the land area looks large, but it is actually meaningless.

The old emperor wanted to raise the Kainan Mountains, and Dongyue also wanted to raise the mountains in the permafrost area in the north to create a large area of ​​farmland.

But other countries didn't respond and didn't want to pay.

If Dongyue is willing to do it on its own, everyone will be willing to take advantage.

Among the seven North American countries, the distribution in the permafrost zone is relatively balanced. Everyone has a territory. For example, Dashun has the exclave Victoria Island, the Henan exclave Baffin Island, and the Rui exclave is an island in the Arctic Circle.

In the past, frozen soil was really useless.

But now there are countries buying it, such as Zhou State, which is buying frozen soil in large quantities.

All seven North American countries are selling frozen soil to him.

The Great Sui Dynasty and the Yi State were both seeking to purchase frozen soil, and orders were coming in endlessly.

In other words, Ming Dynasty did not sell frozen soil, because the frozen soil had to fill the two bays.

East Vietnam also wants to raise the northern plateau, then fill in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and turn this entire area into fertile soil. Then East Vietnam's population can at least double.

And just think about this.

How can this broken bay, frozen all year round, compare with the rich Bohai Bay and Korea Bay?

The country of East Vietnam is very boring, the domestic entertainment industry is lacking, and the people have no entertainment activities except reading newspapers, so the people spontaneously engage in village BA.

If you play big ball sports, it will definitely be the world of black people, and white people are better than white people.

Therefore, you can see many blacks and whites playing ball in Dongyue folk sports stadiums. People often lose their lives on such wild courts.

The rules of the wild field are that only exciting and exciting games can stimulate the audience's play.

So injuries are common.

At the beginning, many Akito played, but they were all abolished. Gradually, there were fewer and fewer Akito, more and more black and white people, and there were people with disabilities every day.

But earning a few games is enough to spend a lifetime.

Dongyue people like to gamble.

Bet on everything, bet on dogs, bet on pigeons, bet on crickets, bet on cards, etc., bet on everything, bet on anything you can think of.

Therefore, sports in East Vietnam are the most bloody, and the rate of disabled people is too high.

East Vietnam is also the only country that does not discriminate against other races and treats whites and blacks equally. This has attracted many white Europeans to seek refuge.

Among the 1.9 million people in East Vietnam, there are as many as 3400 million non-Han people.

The imperial edict brought by Zhu Youyang was an edict of rebuke.

Other countries are digesting the alien population, but Dongyue is better off. Not only is it not digesting, but it is splitting itself. Is it sick?

Zhu Jianpeng had his own considerations.

After the Han conquered the whole world, they had completely degenerated.

Everyone is rich, and no one wants to engage in dangerous activities, such as war. The Han people are the most war-avoiding. Billions of Han people are calling for peace, which is really sad.

Want to maintain the fighting spirit of the Han people.

You have to learn from Mongolia.

The Mongols have been robbing us for hundreds of years. Why do they come every year? Because the Mongolians cannot save money and can spend it, which makes all Mongolians poor.

These poor devils come to rob people every year, and become poor every year, and the cycle starts again and again.

This created the most powerful fighting nation in history, the Mongols.

Regardless of the fact that the Han people rule the world, in fact, the people who really rule the world are not necessarily Han people, they just turn Hu into Han people.

For example, when the Ming Dynasty conquered Jiaozhi, they used Zhuang people; when they conquered Baiyue, they used Miao, Yi, Yao, and Japanese people; when the Ming Dynasty conquered the West, they used Mongolians and Saurons.

After these people completely became Han people, they fell.

The Ming Dynasty began to use Afghans, Cossacks, and savages from many areas. In the end, these people became just Ming people.

Speaking of domestic construction, slaves were also used, and these slaves eventually became Ming people.

Akito, it's just a symbol.

How many foreigners have become Ming people? This is just turning the barbarians into Han people and assimilating into Han people.

Zhu Jianpeng also meant this.

If the Ming Dynasty cannot fight, they will use Europeans and Africans to fight.

They are poor. If they are poor, they want to get rich. If they want to get rich, they have to participate in the war.

In recent years, Dongyue has been raising foreigners and training them into soldiers.

In order to tie the entire East Vietnamese people to the chariot, he did not hesitate to let go of gambling and make the Han people poorer. He also did not encourage childbirth. The poorer he became, the more warlike he became.

There is no absolute fighting nation in this world, they are all forced out of poverty.

Anyway, the population of North America is huge, so just grab it.

Therefore, people of other races can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys of Dongyue. There is no legal requirement that they must integrate into the Han nationality, and there is no requirement that they must marry Han women.

This caused people in Western Europe to avoid the war to flee eastward like swarms.

East Vietnam is the only vassal state in the world with a net inflow of people, numbering in the millions, and a large number of new immigrants every year.

East Vietnam is also close to Western Europe. It is across the Atlantic Ocean and can be reached directly without going through other countries.

Quietly, East Vietnam had formed two armies composed of whites and blacks, and they were already training in the mountains.

The six countries in North America are all tourist countries.

This is not the case with East Vietnam. East Vietnam is not interested in developing soft power and only develops the military industry. Moreover, Zhu Jianpeng believes that the influx of tourists into the country will take state secrets abroad.

Likewise, East Vietnam is still a country of spies.

East Vietnamese spies cover the whole world. According to rough statistics, there are two million spies in East Vietnam, serving the East Vietnamese court.

Such a country full of secrets is destined not to become a tourist country.

He will only become a destabilizing factor in North America.

As for industrialization, Zhu Jianpeng is not willing to spend huge sums of money for development. As long as Dashun and Yan develop well, then East Vietnam will develop well, because sooner or later it will be East Vietnam's territory.

To put it bluntly, he liked the name of the country Dashun and made King Song the leader. When he destroyed the country of Dashun, he would use Dashun as the new country's name.

Zhu Youyang was the most boring person in Dongyue.

After finally enduring the submission of credentials between the two countries, he left East Vietnam without stopping and took a train to Rui.

The train travels through the territory of East Vietnam. It is a long and narrow territory. Outside the window, there are either farmland or woods. It is really boring.

No one prepared any programs for Zhu Youyang.

Zhu Youyang decided to return to his country to complain to the king of Yue.

The Kingdom of Rui is one of the few vassal states that is composed of islands. The entire islands in the Gulf of Mexico, such as Cuba, Dominica, and the Bahamas, are all the territory of the Kingdom of Rui. On land, the Kingdom of Rui also has a piece of it, which is Panama and Costa Rica. , Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala and other countries.

The vertical line with the Yu Kingdom is the City of Carmen, with the Yu Kingdom to the north and the Rui Kingdom to the south.

The Rui Kingdom is also the country with the most dispersed territory, with a territory of more than one million. It is the smallest country among the seven countries, and it is also the most dispersed country.

Rui State also has an enclave, an uninhabited island in the Arctic Circle. Rui State has not yet calculated how many there are.

As a country in the Gulf of North and South America, Rui State has unique geographical advantages and could have become a transportation hub for North and South America.

As a result, it didn't.

King Rui Zhu Jianmiao was a rare libertine among the sons of the old emperor. He was a guy who had accomplished nothing. After he and Zhu Youhang met, they really regretted seeing each other so late.

They have the most common language.

King Rui also wanted to change the country's title, but was refuted by the central government. He was the only one among the kings who was refuted.

This shows that he is not favored by the old emperor.

However, the imperial edict brought by Zhu Youyang still agreed with King Rui and changed his name to King Xiang. From then on, the Kingdom of Rui became the Kingdom of Xiang.

Zhu Jianmiao still wanted to be called Da Xiang.

This guy's domestic affairs were not repaired, and the political situation was gloomy. Many people immigrated to Dashun State, not wanting to be wronged in Xiang State.

Boasting a unique geographical advantage, it is indeed the poorest country among the seven North American countries. It is also the weakest and has the smallest population.

The total population is only 38 million people.

There are not as many people in one mansion as in the Ming Dynasty.

This is still declining. It is estimated that in ten years, all the young people will go to Dashun. In the end, Xiang Kingdom will be left with a group of old, weak, sick and disabled, and I don’t know who will annex it.

Because Zhu knew how to play when he saw Miao, the eunuchs were in charge, and politics was in a mess.

Survive on only two things, one is the Panama Canal and the other is cigars.

The Panama Canal is called the Water-enclosed Canal.

Ships from east coast countries to the Pacific must go through canals.

Previously, Dongyue wanted to buy a piece of land from Xiangguo and dig another canal. After King Xiang found out about this, he fell out with the King of Yue.

This canal is the lifeline of Xiangguo.

With the economic globalization, Ming Dynasty is the center of the world, and the goods of the five North American countries must go through this canal. This is definitely the life gate of the five countries.

Relying on this canal alone, Xiangguo's fiscal revenue is 2000 million.

Another is a cigar.

Xiangguo's cigars sell well all over the world, and he earns another 500 million from cigars.

It is equivalent to saying that Xiangguo did nothing and only relied on these two things to collect 2500 million. Dongyue worked hard and could not get much more.

Therefore, the Yue King Zhu Jianpeng disliked him the most, so he launched a war and was the first to destroy him.

Master this canal, and you master the east coast of North America.

The lifeblood of the King of Yue also lies in the hands of Xiang Guo.

In fact, there is another shady industry in Xiangguo, beauty pageants.

Xiangguo beauty pageant is world-famous.

But the beauty selected does not have a good career.

There is a folk poetry brand called Rui Meiren, which satirizes the Xiangguo beauty pageant.

Zhu Jianmiao was fooling around. Not only did he have many concubines in the harem, he also had countless beauties by his side, which made it difficult for his heirs.

Zhu Jianmiao only had three sons and three daughters. One son died in infancy and he only had two sons.

This guy is in his forties, but he looks as old as an old man in his sixties or seventies. His health has been very poor in the past two years, and he seems to be in his twilight years.

Prince Xiang is another stubborn master.

The future of Xiangguo is bleak, so the people in the country continue to flee.

It’s not that Xiangguo is bad, it’s that Xiangguo is too dangerous.

They are unwilling to go to East Vietnam. East Vietnam is hunting young men everywhere, and sooner or later they will be pushed to the battlefield. It is safest to go to Dashun. Dashun has a large population, and Dashun is a financial center and banking center. It is very likely to be immune in future wars.

That’s it, King Xiang still doesn’t know about it.

All countries are racing, but King Xiang is the only one who is lying flat. The territory is so scattered that after occupying several islands, the country of Xiang will probably no longer exist.

Don’t forget, South America also has a hegemonic country.

Xiangguo is the hub connecting the two continents and will be the first to be involved in the war.

After the diplomatic visit.

Zhu Youyang reluctantly left the country of Xiang and headed north to the last stop in North America, the country of Yu.

Yu country.

After the Six Kingdoms exchanged territory, the Colorado River was used as the boundary between the Yu Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom, and the California Peninsula was assigned to the Xia Kingdom.

The entire peninsula is long and narrow and serves as a shielding island on the west coast. It is completely assigned to the Xia Kingdom.

Xia State allocated a deep mountain range to Yu State.

Yu State owns a large territory in the southern United States, as well as a small part of the Gulf of Mexico Great Plains, plus all of Mexico, plus an enclave in the Arctic Ocean, Victoria Island.

With a territory of more than 400 million people, it is also a large country on the east coast.

Have sufficient strategic depth.

The King of Yu, Zhu Jianlu, is not a fool like King Xiang. He is like his mother and concubine, who is serious about words and expressions.

His mother-in-law came from Mobei and was the marriage partner of various Mongolian tribes. After entering the palace, she had been depressed. After giving birth to him, she felt a little better.

But within a few years, his mother-in-law died young at the age of only twenty-two.

The old emperor buried her in Yuerhai. She was the only imperial concubine buried outside the imperial mausoleum. But this was his mother's wish. The old emperor fulfilled her wish and gave her her freedom.

Zhu Jianlu was more obedient than other children since he was a child. His father loved him very much. After his mother and concubine passed away, he was raised under Concubine Hu's knees.

He has been a little adult since he was a child, and he is also meticulous in his governance when he grows up.

After succeeding the vassal, he had a reputation as a virtuous man. Although he never talked about fighting for hegemony, he was still fighting for hegemony silently.

In his territory, there are the most indigenous people.

This is Mexico, a civilized country with a population of over eight million.

The Yu State has the greatest difficulty in clearing this land, and it is also the most difficult area to occupy among the seven North American countries.
