Therefore, Alexey directly kicked down the chair in front of him, which was the chair that Ming Dynasty official Wang Tiaoding had sat on and was on the same table as himself.
He had kept the chair to motivate himself not to forget the shame, but now he needed it as a tool to vent his emotions.
"Your Majesty! Ming officials have sent a declaration of war!"
But at this time, Lovsky hurried in and presented a letter of challenge to Alexei.
Alexei was very shocked after hearing this and looked at Lovsky: "What did you say?!"
Alexei couldn't understand why the Ming Dynasty suddenly declared war on him just a few years after plundering countless wealth from his Rakshasa Kingdom?
Alexey almost cried for a moment because he didn't know how to face Ming's sudden declaration of war.
"Where is the envoy from the Ming Dynasty? Has he left? Please come and see me!"
Alexey said hurriedly.
Lovsky replied: "I haven't left yet, I'll go ask."
Alexei nodded.
Lofsky retreated hastily.
Alexei began to pace anxiously in his hall.
Although he has borrowed the money from increased taxes to recruit a lot of soldiers, his army has not been trained yet!
Therefore, Ming Guo's sudden declaration of war made him feel at a loss.
When he saw the chair that he had kicked over, he hurriedly helped it up himself, then carried it back to the left side of his throne, and wiped it with his sleeves, waiting for the envoy from the Ming Dynasty to appear.
But when he thought that the emperor of a big country was so afraid of the Ming Kingdom, he felt even more angry, and he breathed quickly and said: "Shameless Ming Kingdom! Greedy Easterners! They will never destroy our Rakshasa Kingdom." Give up?!"
At this time, Lovesky walked in.
Alexei quickly put away his anger and asked: "Come, what should I say?"
"this."
Lovesky was a bit embarrassed to say it.
"Say it!"
Alexey roared.
"The envoy said that if you go and kneel to see him in person, he can tell you the reason."
Lofsky had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply.
"What?!"
Alexei roared even louder after hearing this. He was really angry this time: "He asked me, an emperor, to meet with a small envoy of the Ming Dynasty? You want me to kneel down to meet him?!"
Lofsky said: "They are going too far. Your Majesty, you'd better not go. If you declare war, declare war. We have no other choice now!"
Alexey thought for a while and then said: "Let's go! Humiliation is nothing. If the Ming Kingdom can temporarily let my Rakshasa country go, I am willing to bear even greater humiliation."
After hearing this, Lofsky felt very moved and cried: "Your Majesty!"
"Lead the way."
Alexei said helplessly.
"yes!"
So Alexey took Lovsky to the room where the Ming envoy was.
The person who came to the Rakshasa Kingdom to deliver the declaration of war was just an ordinary Jinyiwei Xiaoqi from the Ming Dynasty.
Historically, the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty did sometimes undertake some diplomatic tasks.
Zhu Youxiao retained this tradition.
However, in the current Tianqi Dynasty, Jin Yiwei is generally responsible for military diplomacy.
Nowadays, Jin Yiwei is responsible for conveying the declaration of war.
At this time, the Ming Dynasty's Jinyiwei Xiaoqi Li Chenglin stood in the house with his chest raised and his head raised, while Alexei knelt down outside the house and said: "May I ask, why did your country declare war on our country?"
"Because, I, the Censor of the Ming Dynasty, Alexei, are stupid and cruel, and impose excessive taxes, which has caused the population to spread all over the place. You were impeached by my Turghut people who submitted to the imperial court. You are suspected of oppressing my Chinese Mongolian Torghut people, and Force them to pay taxes. After hearing this, the Holy Emperor was extremely angry and issued an edict to increase one million troops within three years to destroy your Rakshasa Kingdom and rescue the people living there!"
Li Chenglin replied.
Alexey felt quite aggrieved: "I only raised taxes on my own people, and the taxes on the Turghuts were of their own free will. I did not force them very much, and even recently reduced their taxes. Your Majesty Why should the country even take care of this matter?"
"The Holy Emperor is the savior of all mankind, not just my Majesty the Ming Dynasty. If he wants to take care of it, he should take care of it! You disrespect the Holy Emperor and bully good people. You are no longer suitable to be the ruler of a human being! Either fight. , or just surrender!"
Li Chenglin replied.
After hearing this, Alexei was so angry that he clasped the floor with his hands tightly, and couldn't help but hold back his anger: "Please let us go! As long as we don't start a war! I am willing to surrender to your Holy Emperor! Even from now on, no one will Dare to exploit the people again."
"late!"
Li Chenglin said and left here.
Alexei was helped up by Lovsky.
Alexei said with a cold face: "Send the order, from now on, we Rakshasa people will defend every piece of land in our Rakshasa country and carry out scorched earth warfare! All food will be handed over and distributed uniformly!"
"What His Majesty said is that we must live and die with our country!"
The great nobleman Wei Xing also echoed.
"The Ming Dynasty wants to fight, fight over there!"
"Since the Ming Dynasty does not want us alive, then we must fight to the death! Don't give in!"
Other great nobles also responded.
These big nobles said this at this time. Although it was somewhat of a performance in front of Alexei, they were indeed dissatisfied with Alexei's forced intrusion by the Ming army.
After all, when had the Rakshasa Kingdom ever suffered such injustice?
But after retiring from the court, Alexey still had to say to his most trusted confidant, the noble nobleman Lovsky: "Although, next, I have to call on all Russians to unite and carry out scorched earth operations, but you still continue to send troops People contact the Ming Dynasty and ask them what they need to do to stop the war and stop the war against us. Is it because the compensation is not enough or because the land they want is not enough? I am willing to use the strength of the entire Rakshasa Kingdom to fight against it. It pleases him, please let him go! Really!"
"yes!"
Lofsky replied.
at the same time.
At the court meeting, in front of Alexey, the nobles of the Rakshasa Kingdom, who passionately stated that they would fight the Ming Dynasty to the end, also began to send their own people to quietly contact the people of the Ming Kingdom.
At this time, Weisin found his confidant and said: "Go to the Governor's Mansion of Ural Province in the Ming Dynasty and ask the advisor there, Duke Nilav. Give him my letter and ask him for a way out! Ask him, Will the Ming Dynasty be kind to every Rakshasa noble who is willing to become a king? If possible, when the king arrives in St. Petersburg in the future, I am willing to give half of my family property."
Zhu Cizhuo, the governor of Ural Province in the Ming Dynasty, has indeed received many letters from Rakshasa nobles these days.
This made Zhu Cizhuo feel funny: "It's true, I would never have thought that the people who enjoy the most power in this country are often the weakest!"
With that said, Zhu Cizhuo said: "Please tell the imperial court how to deal with the goodwill expressed by the Rakshasa nobles? In addition, send more sentries and cavalry to guard the border areas, and order the Jin Yiwei to send more spies to the Rakshasa Kingdom!"
