Chapter 242 The end of the dynasty

However, people’s hearts are always difficult to be satisfied, and facing the impact of Dawu’s commodities becomes more and more narrow colonial market.

Da Wu merchants earn less and less benefits.

The smart ones didn’t plan to stop there, they started to deliberately provoke wars in the overseas colonies.

Thinking of making war fortunes and further extracting the wealth of these colonies.

They chose to provoke internal lords to war with each other, and as the war progressed, the war situation expanded further.

These merchants from Wu State began to frantically carry out arms trade and madly promote the war.

The arms trade is a more profitable business than the normal commodity trade before.

And through this war, these merchants can also get more wealth that the colony was hard to get.

For example, some minerals that belong to certain forces are like gold mines, and it is difficult for businessmen to intervene through normal transactions.

Normal channels will not work, violence is the only way.

The merchants choose to vigorously support the relative lords, start wars, and directly set the corresponding mine targets in exchange for arms.

By the time the war was over, the merchants would inevitably make a fortune as these minerals were obtained through the war.

In this way, the number of casualties in the war continued to increase, and the lords chose to exploit the people more brutally, moving the contradictions towards the lower-level people.

They wouldn’t choose to cut flesh from themselves. The real damage to the war is definitely not the interests of the upper class.

The war is like this.

Whenever the lord has a serious financial crisis and the external situation is very bad, that is to leave no way out for the lower class people.

The lords even lead the army to collect food from village to village.

Even if this is the last ration for these villagers.

At this time, it is not uncommon for the food to be robbed and the whole village to starve to death.

In some territories, all the girls were captured by the lords and sold collectively to Dawu merchants, who were sent to Dawu or the rest overseas to work as prostitutes to make money.

Human trafficking has even become a major source of income for most land lords.

In such a situation, there is no way out!

Especially in the face of war,

What can these ordinary people do?

Fighting will kill people, but not fighting will also starve to death.

When hungry, they even prey on each other’s flesh. Human skulls can be seen everywhere in the wilderness.

It is definitely not a rumor that I would rather be a Peace Dog!

And just like that, the land of Ancient Mulberry is already a century of civil war.

In this century, an extreme warrior spirit began to be born.

Because of the continuous wars, Ancient Mulberry’s warrior spirit has a foundation, and the view that if you don’t fight will starve to death has become mainstream.

The war seems to never end.

At the same time, the Dawu merchants also began to prepare to clean up the ending.

The more money you make in arms, the less you earn, and those precious local resources are also divided up.

With the birth of warrior road, more and more soldiers are not afraid of death, some poor lords fight, and even all rely on the consumption of population, after all, people are cheaper than arms.

The less and less money they make in arms, and their goods are also difficult to sell with the continuous war for years.

The benefits of violence have reached their limit, and normal trade must be resumed next.

Because these people don’t even have the money to buy food, and they don’t even have the money to buy other commodities.

The original commodity market collapsed further with successive years of war.

As a result, these colonies collapsed completely.

Comparatively, life in colonies in distant places such as Europe and America was much better.

The farther away from the Central Plains, the lower the control of the Central Plains, the stronger the autonomy, and the stronger the resistance to these merchants.

The power of the royal family in these places is constantly accumulating, and even the expeditionary forces that have the strength to fight the Central Plains,

It is still the Ying Kingdom, which has been in constant wars year after year. There are not many beneficiaries, but the Ying royal family is definitely one of them.

The lords have fought for years, but Qiu has no offense to the royal family, after all, the royal family represents the face of Da Wu.

Having a local advantage, the Ying royal family took the initiative to join forces with some big Wu coastal merchants to control the war, and then jointly extract the wealth of the Ying Kingdom.

At the same time, the royal family quietly controlled some small and medium lords and cultivated their own armed forces.

In this way, the accumulation of several generations of the Ying royal family over the past hundred years is very strong. In this generation, a hero Wang Xian finally appeared.

With the accumulation of ancestors, Wang Xianxiong has a great talent. With the support of many Wu merchants, all the lords of the Ying Kingdom were swept away in just three years, and the Ying Kingdom was officially unified, which is rare after a hundred years. of peace.

On this point, Wang Xian deserves immeasurable merit!

A peaceful market is also in line with the interests of the great Wu merchants.

On the contrary, Imperial Court, under the numbness of many overseas Da Wu businessmen, seemed to react very slowly.

The strength of a rising feudal lord has not been reduced in the slightest. On the contrary, with the support of many great Wu merchants, Wang Xian slowly recovered the vitality of the Ying Kingdom.

Ying Kingdom has been developing for decades, and Wang Xian finally felt that he was full of wings and had this independent move.

In the face of Wang Xian’s arrogance, the Imperial Court’s response was fairly quick, after all, this was the first time an overseas kingdom declared independence.

This is a bad head, and it is extremely detrimental to Da Wu’s overseas colonial plan.

With the emperor’s decree, the Nanyang navy soon began to go to the Ying Kingdom.

It’s a pity that Wang Xian is well prepared. Although the Nanyang Navy has cannons and giant ships, it should be invincible.

But no matter how strong the fortress is, it can be conquered from the inside. Over the years, Wang Xian has seriously corroded the Southern Sea Navy, and they have exchanged many interests with each other.

Many high-level officials fell into Wang Xian’s sugar-coated cannonballs early, and it didn’t take long for the news of the defeat of the Nanyang Navy.

The whole country shakes!

At the same time, the rest of the overseas colonial kingdoms also saw clearly the strength of the Great Wu Empire.

In the five short years after that, except for Goryeo, which was still at war, the rest of the kingdoms declared their independence one after another.

Especially in Europe, Napoleon, who claimed to be the ancestor of the bloodline, started his army from France and fought north and south all the way, almost unifying Europe.

You Dao is blessings never come in pairs misfortunes never come alone!

The situation overseas was rampant. At this time, peasant uprisings began to occur in the coastal areas of Dawu.

This is inevitable after land annexation, these are all the dirt under the prosperous world.

Internal trouble and outside aggression, in the face of such a situation, the emperor could not take into account overseas, and hurriedly sent troops to suppress the civil strife.

But this mess is destined to be difficult to quell the rebellion.

At this time, Da Wu is like an old man who is dying for a long time. Countless contradictions have accumulated. How can he easily quell the rebellion?

This chaos is like the beginning The trigger, as the suppression of the rebellion failed, quickly spread across the country, and more than a dozen rebel forces emerged.

It is interesting that the leaders of these rebel forces are all surnamed Wang, claiming to be a descendant of a certain generation of Emperor Taizu.

Three hundred years later, the Great Wu Imperial Family has grown and spread.

The population of the Imperial Family is no less than several millions. Most of the surnamed Wangs in the world have Taizu bloodline,

However, are these people really Grand Ancestral Queen? The person is unknown, after all, he can change his surname, just like Han Shantong, who was originally from White Lotus Religion, still claimed to be the emperor of Song Dynasty.

But unless the Wang Family can’t be king, or the world will attack it together, this is not empty talk.

Once the rebels do not surnamed Wang, they will definitely be fully suppressed by the Imperial Court, and the rest of the rebels will not join them.

If the insurgents do not surname Wang, they will not have the slightest prestige among the people, and it will be difficult to gather people’s hearts, which will be very unfavorable for the rebellion.

From this, a civil strife that lasted for more than 30 years began, and the final winner was named Wang Chao, the thirteenth grandson of Taizu.

This is not fake, his lineage has not declined, and he himself is still in the list of Zongrenfu.

After Wang Chao succeeded to the throne, the country name remained unchanged.

After that, the development of Da Wu’s technology far surpassed that of Wang Meng’s first generation, and countless black technologies were born.

Finally a few years ago, the so-called 100% virtual world technology appeared, and this “wizard world” game is the Great Accomplishment of this technology.
