Who is the British Empire? Is it the Kingdom of England? It’s not big. Will it become bigger in the future? You have to be careful!
Who is the French Empire? Is it the kingdom of the Franks? Will this country become bigger in the future? But there is only a "small ditch" between it and England, and they are both crowded in western Europe. How can such a small amount of space accommodate two big countries?
Who is the United States of America? It seems very awesome! Was it a country established after the Armenians became developed?
Who is the Soviet Union? Is it a union of Scots? But Scotland is just north of England and is said to be very desolate. How could it possibly become bigger?
Also, what does the Sino-British YP war mean? Was it the king of England who drank too much and sent a fleet to fight the Song Dynasty? But why is it called the YP War? What is this YP? Will the Kingdom of England attack the Song Dynasty for this?
It should be impossible for this to happen again, right?
The "Treasure Ship Fleet" in Jiaozhou Bay alone has 1,000 powerful gunboats. How many such warships are there in the damn kingdom of England? If you really dare to come here to die, you must be dizzy!
In the Huangdao Palace in Jiaozhou Bay, Zhao Kai, who had been feeling dizzy recently and had forgotten a lot of things, was holding a thread-bound book of notes and opening them in the study, frowning as he read.
He knows that his situation is not good these days... he always forgets something, and he probably has Alzheimer's disease. So he took a notebook to record all the important things in this life and previous lives, so as not to forget them.
But now he realizes that something is wrong!
He has not forgotten anything that happened in this life recorded in the notebook... He has the memory of a champion, and he is not very old, so how could he forget important things?
But he couldn't understand many of the past lives recorded in the book! It was obviously something he wrote himself... He even remembered when he wrote it! But I just forgot what I meant by what I wrote?
Oh, I know all the words! But he didn't know what these bunch of words meant when put together.
It’s scary to think about this!
However, Zhao Kai also knew that the reason why he couldn't understand what he wrote in the notebook must be because he had lost some memories of his previous life.
And the content that he could record in the notebook must be very important... It's wrong to think that he has forgotten it now.
When Zhao Kai thought of this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, then closed the book that recorded the important memories of his previous life and put it away carefully. Then he stood up, walked out of the study, and went to a terrace.
The main building of the Huangdao Palace where Zhao Kai currently lives is a three-story "tall building" with a brick and wood structure. The walls are painted red, the roof is covered with cyan glazed tiles, and the windows are inlaid with expensive flat glazed glass. It is very high-end and elegant. .
This "building" was specially built for Zhao Kai when he came to Jiaozhou Bay to inspect the fleet of thousands of treasure ships after Zhao Ping took charge of Jiaozhou. From a very large study room on the third floor of the building, through a corridor, you can reach a terrace facing Jiaozhou Bay.
Standing on this terrace, Zhao Kai could overlook Jiaozhou Bay and take in all the thousands of treasure ships anchored at the anchorage near Huangdao.
The wind and waves outside Jiaozhou Bay have been a bit strong these two days, and all the treasure ships are concentrated in the bay.
This scene is really spectacular!
These are 1,000 2,000-material treasure ships that are the same size on one side and look almost exactly the same! Now gathered together, all are now equipped with full sailors, who have completed or are undergoing training before the voyage.
Can the British Empire, the French Empire, the United States of America and that Soviet Union confront such a huge fleet?
"Guardian, what do you think of these treasure ships?"
The person who was talking to Zhao Kai was Yu Yunwen, the Grand Prime Minister of Dongfu.
Because Zhao Kai wanted to announce his candidates in Jiaozhou, Yu Yunwen, Lu Baoshan, Yue Fei, Li Fuchen and other important officials from the two governments accompanied Zhao Kai to Jiaozhou.
At this moment, both Yu Yunwen and Lu Baoshan were accompanying Zhao Kai, watching the sea and the treasure ships together!
"Yes," Zhao Kai nodded lightly, "It's quite spectacular..."
Lu Baoshan said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Zhao did a really good job this time! Not only was the Huangdao Treasure Shipyard reorganized, the sailors on the 1,000 treasure ships were also fully staffed.
The military affairs of Shandong Road have also been done extremely well. The Xiang troops in various places have been refined and the bandits and bandits in various places have been almost wiped out. "
Zhao Lun's official post was that of Shandong Road's pacifying envoy and he was also aware of Jiaozhou affairs. He was responsible for the promotion of treasure ships.
Among them, the Shandong Road pacifier is the local military commander of Shandong Road defense and security. The bandits and bandits in Shandong are all his duty to exterminate.
Zhao Kai smiled when he heard this, "King Zhao was originally meant to appease, and he has been in the military for many years, so he has long been a veteran. What does it mean to suppress bandits and bandits? Besides, in the past two years, all parties have been suppressing bandits. Almost all the bandits and bandits have been captured."
Zhao Lun is in his early 40s this year and has been in the military for more than 20 years! Not only did he serve in the navy, but he also served in the army for a short period of time. With rich military experience, he was certainly not enough to destroy the bandits and bandits in Shandong.
Moreover, in order to catch the bandits (who were captured and sent to the New World), Zhao Kai sent many army field troops to local military governors like Zhao Lun. Their combat effectiveness was so strong that of course the local bandits could not withstand them.
Zhao Kai paused and then smiled and said: "But it is very good that King Zhao can take care of Shandong's military affairs, Jiaozhou's government affairs, and shipbuilding and naval training in such an orderly manner... I was ordered to do so back then. When he left Kaifeng Mansion and went north to fight against the Jin Dynasty, he didn't have such skills! Otherwise, the late emperor would not have died in the battle."
Hearing Zhao Kai's words, Yu Yunwen and Lu Baoshan's ears perked up.
Did Zhao Kai say this to establish King Zhao as the foundation of the country?
Yu Yunwen and Lu Baoshan looked at each other. Yu Yunwen smiled and asked tentatively: "The official... In fact, His Highness King Qin also did a good job on the grassland! In less than two years, Mobei has been The grassland is almost flat. Xiao Weilila, Xiao Duolu, Xiao Pugu, Shali and his son have all been beheaded. Only the Naiman people in the western part of the grassland and the remnants of the Zubukele tribe are still resisting. But it's no longer possible. If it takes too long, it should be completely wiped out."
Lu Baoshan sighed softly, "It's just that the two-year period has passed... Official, do you think we should extend the period for King Qin?"
It turned out that Zhao Ping still encountered some trouble in the process of pacifying the grassland. Most of the nomadic and Dingmu tribes on the grassland (the Dingmu tribes are mainly Khitan people) have surrendered. But there is also a group of people who are still making trouble, namely the Naiman people and the Zubukele tribe who believe in Nestorian Christianity.
The reason why these two tribes refused to surrender was because they believed in Nestorianism...that is, they believed in the religion of God. As early as when Yelu Dashi was promoting the "old version of Confucianism" in the Mobei grasslands, he had conflicts with them.
As the legitimate son of the Confucian sect, Zhao Ping is very likely to be elected as the new sect in the future and become the leader of the Confucian sect in the world. Now of course he must safeguard Confucianism and suppress Nestorianism. As a result, the conflict between him and the Naiman tribe and the Zubukele tribe became a bit difficult to reconcile.
Moreover, Zhao Ping never thought of Huairou, a barbarian, and Zubu Kelie, so the war between the two sides is still continuing... Now it seems that it will take some time for him to completely wipe out these two people who dare to resist Song Tianwei. of steppe tribes.
In the eyes of many courtiers, Zhao Ping should have missed the time to submit his papers... According to the standards of the imperial examination, he was already out.
Therefore, the foundation of the Song Dynasty will undoubtedly be Zhao Lun!
After listening to Lu Baoshan's suggestion, Zhao Kai just smiled lightly: "The King of Qin is about to arrive in Jiaozhou, why should we delay it?"
...
Zhao Lun, who left Jiaozhou 30 miles to meet Zhao Ping, now feels that he should win!
To be fair, Zhao Ping did a good job in the Mobei grassland. He destroyed Xiao Weili, Xiao Duolubu and Xiao Pu Guzhi Shali and his son, took control of the Northern Liao court, and also controlled most of the Mobei tribes. , captured all the burgers in Mobei...
But Zhao Ping still missed the time limit!
No matter how good the article is, if you can't hand it in at the end, you still won't be able to pass the exam!
But he, Zhao Lun, successfully completed the answer within the stipulated time...so the foundation of the Song Dynasty must be his!
Zhao Ping could only find a place where no one was and cry... This is life!
If the destiny is not with Zhao Ping, who can be blamed?
Just when Zhao Lun was sitting in a reception pavilion having fun, he heard the sound of horse hooves. The Shandong pacification envoy Zhang Zizheng (son of Zhang Jun), who was guarding Zhao Lun's side, smiled and said: "Your Majesty, It seems that King Qin’s troops are coming soon.”
Zhao Diandian nodded, "Go and ask."
Zhang Zizheng immediately stood up and strode out of the reception pavilion. When he reached the outside, he raised his hand and summoned a dozen knights who had gone to greet Zhao Ping and his party.
The first knight saluted Zhang Zizheng on horseback and said loudly: "Du Tong, King Qin and Zhang Tongzhi are here together, and they also bring 20,000 cavalry. The leader is already 20 miles away!"
"Zhang Tongzhi?" Zhang Zizheng was stunned, "Which Zhang Tongzhi?"
The knight said: "Reporting to the commander of the capital, it is Zhang Ziyan, commander of the 18th Army."
"Who?" Zhang Zizheng was stunned again and again, "My third brother?"
It turns out that Zhang Ziyan, who came to Jiaozhou with Zhao Ping, was also Zhang Jun's son and Zhang Zizheng's third brother.
Zhang Jun had five sons in total, of whom only the third, Zhang Ziyan, and the fourth, Zhang Zizheng, served as high-ranking officials. Among them, Zhang Zi is a member of King Zhao's party, and Zhang Ziyan has not joined anyone's sect - he is a military commander, a senior general who directly controls heavy troops, and he cannot join anyone's sect...unless he has Zhao Kai's consent. !
Zhang Zizheng felt something was wrong, and hurriedly returned to Zhao Lun, "Your Majesty, my third brother is here too...with troops, and he came with King Qin!"
"What? Your third brother has troops? How many?" Zhao Lun asked hurriedly.
Zhang Zizheng said: "More than 20,000 infantry and cavalry... seem to have brought the main force of the Eighteenth Army... Your Majesty, this matter is a bit strange!"
