Through this summit, some heads of state who were previously wavering about the "Imperial War" (the war between the Ming Empire and the Holy Roman Empire) basically understood the attitude and plans of the Ming Emperor.
Before the Holy Roman Empire was destroyed, the Emperor of the Ming Empire probably did not want to stop the war, and did not even have any plans to negotiate with Leopold and his son.
This was unexpected by some heads of state who tried to act as lobbyists. They also planned to profit from it so that they could take away hundreds of millions of silver coins in benefits!
The reason for mediation is also very simple. The first and second "Western Invasions" launched by the Ming Empire (the Holy Roman Empire's abbreviation for this) included weapons and equipment, logistical supplies, and pension bonuses.
The total cost is more than one billion silver coins, possibly as high as two billion. This money might as well be used to appease the Holy Roman Empire in an attempt to maintain good neighborliness.
Given that most of the Holy Roman Empire had been destroyed by war, the population had dropped sharply, and the economy had collapsed, the Ming Empire only needed to pay the other side 5 billion silver coins to deal with the aftermath.
If the Emperor of the Ming Empire is unwilling to pay so much, three billion is fine, but at least it should not be less than two billion, and five million captives must be returned.
Some heads of state believed that the failure of the Ming Empire's two attacks was an obvious hint that the Holy Roman Empire was protected by heaven.
Even if the Ming Empire had become the world's hegemon, it could not conquer or even destroy the Holy Roman Empire. Even if it launched several similar attacks, it would not succeed.
There is a prophecy circulating in the West that the Holy Roman Empire can last for thousands of years, just like the original Roman Empire (including the Eastern and Western Roman Empires).
Counting from the time Otto I was crowned "Emperor of the Romans" in 962 AD, the Holy Roman Empire would have existed until at least 1962!
There are still more than two hundred years between now and that time point, so it is impossible for the Ming Empire to destroy the Holy Roman Empire. The previous failure confirmed this prophecy!
Some even believed that the Ming Empire would be dragged down by its own military expenditure before it destroyed the Holy Roman Empire, while the Holy Roman Empire could remain standing.
In this regard, Zhu Cixi told many heads of state about a traffic accident that happened not long ago!
What do traffic accidents have to do with prophecy and the Holy Roman Empire?
The specific content is as follows: There was a private car owner who, relying on a little money in his pocket and some capable friends, was very proud of himself. When he was driving in the morning, he said goodbye to the bus that was about to enter the station.
That's not all. After the bus driver gave him a "friendly reminder", the private car owner suddenly became angry and kept driving left and right on the road.
In the end, there was a sudden brake, causing the bus to hit his private car. He tried to use this as an excuse to make the other party pay money and teach the bus driver a painful lesson.
Who is the uncle?
Find out soon!
The bus driver is not in a hurry, but the people who take the bus to work are in a hurry!
Seeing this scene, a dozen strong men got off the bus and came to check on the owner of the private car with great concern, fearing that the bus had just hit him.
After some "cordial and friendly" communication, although the passengers who got off the bus spoke in a straightforward tone and greeted each other's family members, they finally forgave the private car owner who was lying on the ground dying...
Jin Yiwei, who was in charge of traffic control nearby, rushed to the scene of the accident and took away all the people involved. The accident also alarmed Zhu Cixiang.
How was the penalty determined in the end?
A private car owner violated traffic rules, was suspected of dangerous value, delayed the other party's travel and work, behaved badly, and had a disgusting attitude. He was sentenced to three years of revoked driving license, a fine of two hundred silver coins, and one month in prison after recovering from his injuries.
Then……
Feel sorry!
There is no more!
The fines are used to repair buses and are distributed to passengers who are delayed from getting to work.
His cunts and friends originally wanted to smooth things over for him, but after hearing the seriousness of the matter, they all stopped for fear that they would be implicated.
What does this accident tell us?
Don't try to break the established rules, you think you are doing the right thing, that's what you think, that's all!
Once you commit public outrage, all sophistry and resistance will be in vain, and in the end it will only accelerate your own failure!
The heads of state of various countries are not fools. Is the Emperor of the Ming Empire talking about private car owners?
You can even use your heels to figure out who is being beaten. Isn't it clear?
Aren't you resisting?
More and more people will get out of their cars and come over to beat you!
If the Holy Roman Empire had not taken the initiative to provoke the Ming Empire, would there have been a series of subsequent events?
After reaching an agreement with Louis XIV, Zhu Cixi also publicly announced that in the third crusade against the Holy Roman Empire, not only the Ming army, the Japanese army, the Ottoman army, and the Inca army would continue to fight, but France and Kimchi would also send troops.
The Kimchi Army was just a make-up, and everyone automatically ignored it. However, France decided to send troops, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the heads of state.
Obviously, Louis XIV received huge benefits from Zhu Cihong, and this was the reason why he killed Leopold, which also heralded the imminent demise of the Holy Roman Empire.
Perhaps the Holy Roman Empire could withstand the pincer attack from the Ming Empire and the Ottoman Empire, but once France entered the war, especially joining the Ming'ao side, the result would be obvious.
If France helps the Holy Roman Empire, it should be able to agree to the Third Imperial War.
On the contrary, it will accelerate the demise of the Holy Roman Empire!
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked. The heads of state of various countries needed time to digest and make the final decision...
The response time is not long, only three days.
Frederick Jr. reacted the fastest and had already stated that Prussia would dispatch two armies, six brigades and 30,000 people to help the Ming army clear obstacles!
Although the Netherlands was exchanging territory with France, the relocation work was far from over. William III was also willing to dispatch an army and three brigades to help the Ming Empire share the pressure from the northwest.
King Carl XI of Sweden was also willing to dispatch an army to go south with the Prussian army from the territory on the southern coast of the Baltic Sea. Three armies from both sides could form a group army.
Under this circumstance, Louis XIV, as one of the only two emperors in Europe, also had to demonstrate personally and publicly announced that France would dispatch six armies of about 90,000 people to launch an attack from the western front.
The scale of the French army should not be enough to attack the Holy Roman Empire, but it is completely sufficient to seize the Rhineland area west of the Rhine River. This is also the general goal of the European Emperor's actions as speculated by the heads of state.
The benefits of sending troops to all parties can then be basically determined. Louis XIV can already leave the table with the menu. If he is not satisfied with the dishes he gets, he will not agree to participate in the war.
Frederick the Younger can get half of Saxony and a second-hand Tier VI cruiser (Blücher), and both Sweden and the Netherlands can get a second-hand Tier VII battleship (King).
The Japanese army has always been a mercenary force. Zhu Cixiang not only gave the opponent the same treatment as before, but also gave General Tokugawa a brand new seventh-level battleship as a final thank you.
With so many countries sending troops to the Holy Roman Empire, it should be the last combat operation against the country. It makes sense to give a decent gift to thank the useless general.
If the Holy Roman Empire can still withstand it, it can really be described as being protected by heaven.
Kimchi did not send many troops, and the combat effectiveness of its soldiers was inferior to that of the Japanese army. They could be dispatched with a second-hand cruiser.
Back then, Emperor Chengzu used the fleet's route to the Western Ocean as a route to send gifts to the indigenous people. This is enough to say.
Today, Emperor Haojing uses a 30,000-ton battleship to send gifts, which has refreshed the government and the public's understanding of the emperor...
The battleship, which was built at a huge cost, was originally used by the emperor to give gifts. This move
Absolutely amazing skills!
This time alone, the emperor sent out a ninth-level battleship (France), an eighth-level battleship (Ottoman), four seventh-level battleships (Ottoman, Swedish, Dutch, and Japanese), and two sixth-level cruisers (Prussian, Prussian, Pickle).
The total value exceeds two billion silver coins, which is slightly lower than the price of the peace negotiation with the Holy Roman Empire. If the cost of sending troops is included, it may be significantly higher than the price of the peace negotiation.
When it comes to prodigality, everyone in the government and the public believes that the current emperor has surpassed all previous emperors combined, and can be called the most prodigal son of the Ming Dynasty!
But even this failed to destroy the strong family fortune. Instead, the emperor became richer and richer, and the people's lives became better and better.
A large number of poor people in the past have moved to areas outside the mainland, and most of them have lived a life as landlords that they could not even imagine before.
Every household has hundreds of acres, or even thousands of acres of land. Except for those old men who have no feelings for their homeland, who would have the nerve to say that Emperor Haojing is not good to them?
At present, the territory of the Ming Empire has expanded to all corners of the country, the economy is booming, science and technology are developing at a rapid pace, the national treasury is full, and the strength of the King's Division is still rising.
The long-cherished wish of the first empire in the world has truly been realized, and the people have lived a good life without worries about food and clothing. Young and middle-aged people have good jobs, middle-aged and elderly people have hope for medical treatment, and the demands of women and children can be met.
Emperor Haojing has become the most popular emperor throughout the ages. This title does not even have to wait until his death. It is already enshrined in the temple.
Of course it is terrifying to worship a living person, but Emperor Haojing is already an immortal in the eyes of the prayers. Only an immortal can live for such a long time, and the rebirth of Emperors Yan and Huang can only be like this.
In the eyes of some stingy men, if the emperor married hundreds of stunning beauties, had no kidney deficiency, and lived such a long life, he was undoubtedly an immortal...
Immortals are protected by heaven and the way of heaven. Only by following the instructions of immortals who descend from heaven to earth can mortals avoid disasters and achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven after death.
Therefore, Emperor Haojing said that he would continue his crusade against the Holy Roman Empire. It was God's will and you should obey it, otherwise you will be punished by God!
Don’t some Western barbarians know how to play prophecies?
A certain emperor has known this trick for a long time, and it makes it even more fun!
The existence of the Holy Roman Empire is contrary to God's will and must be eradicated!
I have the nerve to say that I can become the second thousand-year empire!
If it’s neither sacred, nor Roman, nor imperial, then don’t mess with the Roman Empire!
It is more in the interests of all parties to carve up this so-called Holy Roman Empire with our friends.
We also want to show those guys with ulterior motives that this is the result of offending the Ming Empire!
The first is Spain, the second is Britain, and the third is the Holy Roman Empire!
One thing that can be passed down is the slave model of the Roman Empire...
Influenced by the Ming Empire, countries such as the Netherlands, France, Sweden, and Venice have used a large number of slaves to engage in various industries, especially manual labor positions. There are many slaves employed.
The Ottoman Empire is not among them, because the empire used slaves long before these countries, and since its inception, it has operated a semi-slave empire model.
Initially, everyone was looking for what was wrong with this model...
Later, after tasting the benefits, everyone felt that there was nothing wrong with this model!
A young and strong slave can earn at least twenty silver coins in pure profit for his master a year, in exchange for serving the country.
With one million young slaves, the net profit becomes 20 million. How can this not make the heads of state excited?
After introducing a large number of slaves, even the most ordinary farmers could become veritable landlords after acquiring a large amount of land.
The country can also obtain stable income from land loans to them, and by the way, it can also stabilize food harvests and avoid famine.
Will others starve to death? Zhu Ci
You can't do anything about it, just let the people under his command eat and drink well.
In fact, due to the rapid expansion of the empire's territory and the large number of immigrants in place, the people of the Ming Dynasty were already struggling...
Even if a bachelor arrives in the Northland, he can get two hundred acres of land.
If you are not lazy, you can survive the long winter just by harvesting potatoes.
No one cares about hunting, fishing, cutting down trees, or even pooping on temporarily unowned land.
The higher the latitude you choose to settle in, the larger the land area you will be allocated.
Like in areas around Yakutsk, every household owns thousands or thousands of acres of land.
Families who really can't stand the extremely cold climate here can also take this opportunity to move to the much warmer Pod Plain.
Emperor Haojing's consistent aim was to first secure the borders around the newly acquired territories and then slowly manage them.
Anyone who is willing to move to the new territory of Central Europe can enjoy full tax exemption for twenty years.
Only half of the tax will be charged in the second twenty years, and only 10 percent of the tax will be charged in the third twenty years. The treatment is exactly the same as in Jutland.
It's just that it doesn't have as rich fishery resources as Jutland, but the climate is still very good and it's not as humid as the peninsula.
The influx of large numbers of immigrants can quickly localize border areas, which is one of the main measures to reduce indigestion.
The treatment of Yimin has been promulgated, and the plan to completely eliminate the Holy Roman Empire is no longer just talk on paper.
The reason why some people are willing to move to Europe is also very simple, that is, the summer in the Ming Dynasty is too hot.
For this reason, Zhu Cixi had to postpone the summit. In the middle of summer, even the asphalt road melted under the high temperature.
According to Jinyiwei's field tests, the maximum temperature in Beidu in July reached 39 degrees, and the surface temperature reached 51 degrees, which is even higher than that of Lao Baigan!
