"good!"
Zhu Heji nodded approvingly and said with a smile: "Mingzhu, I would like to wish you and I the Ming Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers a great victory in Japan and a long-lasting military fortune!"
After wishing "long-lasting military fortune", Zhu Heji asked the attendant Nalan Xingde who was guarding the South Study to send his father Nalan Mingzhu back to Yanenhou Mansion (Chang Ning's residence) to rest.
Seeing Nalan Xingde walking away, King Zhu Tian said to his son: "Sai Zai, do you really want to cross the sea to conquer the Japanese? That is a country that Grandpa Taizu has decided not to conquer..."
"It is no longer the dynasty of Taizu!" Zhu Heji shook his head and said with a smile, "It is now my Ming Dynasty...it is the Ming Dynasty that I founded! For Taizu, there is a strong enemy. In the north, on the grasslands, of course we have to concentrate our efforts to deal with it. That's why there are so many unconquered countries... His old man's original intention is to let future generations concentrate their efforts on dealing with the north. But now the enemies in the north are not a concern, and the west is not a concern. The remaining clear demon left is a little troublesome.
However, the Huguang army under the leadership of Xiao Wuhou (Zhuge Zhengyang) has wiped out Henan and can invade Shaanxi at any time. The army in Zhili was led by Su Zhanshan and Zhao Hongkui to pacify Shanxi, and could enter Shaanxi at any time. Once Shaanxi is recovered by me, the pseudo-Kangxi will probably be like Xixia...sooner or later it will be destroyed by me. Even if he could still go west, given the current barrenness of the Western Region, how big of a market would he still have? That is to say, Emperor Qingshun.
There are many small states in Nanyang, which is not a problem... In my opinion, the old enemy of the Ming Dynasty in the future will definitely be in the Oriental Overseas! "
"OOCL? That's Japan?" King Zhu Tian looked in disbelief.
Zhuge Sanhe also felt that little Japan was not that powerful. "Your Majesty, how can Japan, a small country, pose a threat to our great country, China? You are worrying too much."
Worrying too much?
Zhu Heji glanced at him and said in his heart: "Have you seriously considered it? The threat of the Japanese Empire is still small? These grandsons are so hateful!"
Thinking of this, Zhu Heji said solemnly, "It's not Japan, but the New Spain that dominates the New World and has its capital in Mexico!
"New Spain?" King Zhu Tian was stunned and immediately remembered, "Is that New Spain that is rich in gold and silver in the New World...the colonial land of the Kingdom of Spain?"
"Yes!" Zhu Heji nodded heavily, "Abba, you should know how big this New Spain is, right?"
"It's not small!"
King Zhu Tian is the Third Prince Zhu who opens his eyes to see the world! Of course he knows how peaceful the Pacific is, how new the New World is, and how rich New Spain is!
Zhuge Sanhe also knows New Spain - he is also a Zhuge divination who opens his eyes to see the world.
I saw him shaking his feather fan, shaking his head and saying: "New Spain has tens of thousands of fertile fields and a population of 10 million. It is extremely rich in all kinds of products. The gold and silver produced accounts for 60 to 70% of the world's gold and silver, and it is surrounded by many There is no powerful country... Although New France is vast, it has a very small population. The number of people registered in the country is only tens of thousands, so it is difficult to become a great power. The so-called New England is just a dozen counties shrunk in the northwest corner of the east coast of the New World. Although the population is hundreds of thousands, it is still difficult to compete with New Spain, and I am afraid that it will be destroyed by it sooner or later.
As for the Portuguese colonies in the New World, although they have more people than New France and are vaster than New England, they are still far inferior to New Spain! It seems that without our intervention, New Spain would have unified the New World in a hundred years at most! "
This analysis by Military Advisor Zhuge is reasonable!
New Spain now needs territory, resources, resources, population, capital... and is rich in gold and silver!
And now the only big city in the New World is Mexico City, the capital of New Spain!
Mexico is now the center of the New World!
Compared with New Spain, New France, the Portuguese colonies, and the New England colonies all together are not enough. There is no need to compare with anything else. Just compare with population and you will lose. New Spain has a population of more than 10 million... This is a population under the jurisdiction of the Viceroyalty in Mexico City!
So there is no doubt that the future ruler of the New World will live in Mexico City!
At least judging from the world maps of the 1770s and 1980s and the paper data from various parties in the New World, the future of the New World must belong to New Spain.
Once New Spain becomes the master of the New World, the future will be limitless!
With such a large land and such rich resources, why can’t the population keep rising? When the population increases, will we still be the world hegemon?
Zhu Heji said again: "Abba, Prime Minister, don't look at the Pacific Ocean between the New World and our Ming Dynasty... Today's sailing ships are getting bigger and bigger, and their speed is getting faster and faster. Maybe one day Two hundred years later, the navy of New Spain will be able to bring an army of one hundred and two hundred thousand to our doorstep."
What a Mexican threat theory!
However, except that the protagonist has changed from Mexico to the United States, his story is similar to the original historical direction.
"Sai Zai," King Zhu Tian already understood his son's thoughts, "Is that why you want to cross the Pacific to conquer New Spain?"
"Yes!" Zhu Heji nodded and said, "It's too far for us to cross over directly... We have to take Japan as a springboard first. And Japan itself has a population of 20 million! The land is narrow and the people are small. He is poor, has a humble life, and has always been brave and fierce. If he is not used by me, he will be used by Spain and the Netherlands to become my enemy!
So I want to strike first and use the power of thunder to defeat Japan...and then accept it as a hawk dog! If someone becomes an eagle and dog, they will be able to recreate Spain! Now our Ming Dynasty is the number one country in the world. As long as we can suppress the New Continent, we will prevent the New Continent from becoming a superpower that dominates the entire continent. Then Ming's number one can be maintained for a long time. "
Zhuge Sanhe thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, are you running out of time? We haven't unified the country yet! It's better to recuperate for ten or eight years and then attack Japan. Then we will be safe. After defeating Japan, we can attack the New World. , we will definitely win a big victory.”
"We can't delay it for so long," Zhu Heji shook his head, "Does the Prime Minister know what I sent Huang Zhisheng to do?"
"I'm on a mission to Rakshasa!" Zhuge Sanhe replied.
"Rakshasa is not important," Zhu Heji said, "What is important is the Ottoman Empire! The Ottoman Empire has produced a very capable prime minister in the past few years, and its national strength has recovered to some extent, and it can fight again with the Holy Roman Empire in the west. It's over... As long as the Ottomans can capture Vienna, within five to ten years, the Westerners will not care about us landing in the New World and opening up colonies. If we miss this opportunity, we want to colonize the New World. It’s hard to even get a foothold in the army! So next spring, I will go to Korea again, then join the army and cross the sea to conquer Japan!”
