Liu Yi, a young man from Turgut who had been stranded in Lucia, came to the Xianbei Principality and came out of the messy station.
When I looked up, I saw a busy scene with construction sites everywhere.
On the bustling streets, newsboys shuttled back and forth, shouting in Ming Yayan while trotting:
"Da Ming Daily! Today's Daming Daily!"
"The peace treaty was officially signed..."
"The Ming Dynasty has taken all the Southern Yinzhou, and the overall situation of the Northern Yinzhou has been decided..."
"Xiyi has compensated a total of 33 million Ming Dynasty gold coins..."
"The World War is officially over..."
"The World Alliance Formation Conference is about to be held..."
Pedestrians on the street heard the shouting, and many people also screamed in surprise.
Many people stopped and turned around to listen to the specific content of the newsboy's shout. Many people called to the newsboy and asked for a newspaper.
Liu Yi, who had been riding the train for two days, was obviously stunned when he suddenly heard the news.
Without any hesitation, Liu Yi immediately ran over, took out a few Lucia banknotes, and asked for a newspaper.
Just standing on the street, reading the detailed contents of the newspaper, shaking his head with an excited expression:
"This is so amazing... How come the Western Yi recognized so much territory and more than 1,600 tons of gold..."
As a result, someone next to me immediately picked up the conversation:
"What else can they do if they don't admit it? They can no longer hold on. If they continue to resist, they will wait for the people to rise up."
Liu Yi turned around subconsciously and saw a middle-aged man with a Thai-American face, but Daming Yayan's accent was purer than his own:
"Then why can Daming survive?"
The middle-aged Thai-Chinese man laughed dryly and said:
"The newspapers have analyzed it, and it turns out that the Ming Dynasty still has a strong foundation. The industrial accumulation of 150 years is simply not comparable to that of the West.
"In terms of industrial technology, production capacity, imperial wealth, national population, quantity and quality, which one of Europe and the West can compare with the Ming Dynasty?
"From the very beginning of the war, I judged that as long as the Ming Dynasty was not pushed out of the mainland by a wave of European and Western countries, otherwise the Ming Dynasty would be victorious.
“It ended up being a war of attrition, but I never imagined that Daming could get so much on the negotiating table.
"This was all negotiated by a fifteen-year-old grandson of the emperor. Those diplomats in Taixi are all useless.
"In order to keep their crowns, the royal families of the European and Western countries are really shameless..."
Liu Yi was stunned and speechless, and continued to read the newspaper in his hand, which contained more detailed analysis.
As a result, this man was not done yet, and kept talking next to Liu Yi, saying that he had said so and so before.
There are people at the top of politics everywhere...
Liu Yi looked at the information in the newspaper. In addition to international news, there was also a lot of local news and local situations.
The exchange of immigrants between the Lucia Empire and the Xianbei Principality was highlighted.
Liu Yi has always been secretly worried about this matter. In the long run, this matter is certainly a good thing.
Let the Xianbei Principality be completely separated from Lucia.
But in the short term, it may not be a good thing. Immigrants may not be willing to immigrate. It is only a small matter, but more serious is damage.
Under the rough treatment of those soldiers, those Lucian elements may not necessarily be exposed on their own initiative.
What if someone tolerates it and continues to lurk inside the Xianbei Principality, waiting for opportunities to cause chaos and destruction...
This is something that has happened throughout history...
At this moment, a violent explosion suddenly sounded from the crowd not far ahead.
Several people around him were directly blown away, and then they were covered in blood and fell to the ground like broken bags, looking lifeless.
A burst of screams immediately erupted from the crowd, and the surrounding workers, pedestrians, and immigrants immediately fled in all directions.
Patrolling guards wearing Ming Dynasty uniforms immediately stopped to maintain order...
Liu Yi's eyes widened, looking at the broken corpses, and muttering in a daze:
"This... begins..."
At noon that day, at the suggestion of the Ming Dynasty Governor, the prefect of Xianbei City and the commanders of the Three West Xianbei Guards jointly ordered that the entire Xianbei City be placed under martial law.
They began to go door-to-door to compulsorily register their household registration, and at the same time collected civilian explosives, guns and ammunition.
England, London, the sun has just risen.
The fog that fills the city mixes with the morning mist, making the whole of London seem to be covered with a veil.
In this hazy veil, workers hurried on the streets, and postmen and newsboys ran in the morning light.
The crisp voices of the newsboys spread through the mist to the surroundings.
Pedestrians turned around in surprise, and then heaved a long sigh of relief.
The news that the peace treaty was officially signed also spread quickly among most ordinary people this morning.
But for most ordinary people, this is not bad news.
Although the British did not win, they only lost a few distant colonies.
The swamps of the Florida Peninsula and the ice floes of the Hudson Bay have nothing to do with ordinary people.
Reparations were not unaffordable to Britain.
The key is that the world, which has been tense for more than ten years due to war, is finally relaxing quickly.
The entire country's financial resources and energy will be diverted to stabilizing social order.
There is no need to spend a lot of resources on producing guns and ammunition, things that cannot be eaten or worn.
Simply reducing military spending in the next few years may be enough to pay the compensation of 10 million Ming Dynasty gold coins.
Ordinary people's lives should slowly improve.
Of course, for many people, this is not good news.
In a cafe on the street, several "British gentlemen" wearing silk robes were reading newspapers and cursing.
"Pete is indeed a traitor!"
"Pete is our British Qin Hui and Jia Sidao!"
"I would like to ask His Majesty the King to cast a kneeling statue of Pitt and place it in front of No. 10 Downing Street!"
"Can I still save my estate, the vacation estate I built on the beach in Florida?"
"If you are from the Ming Dynasty, even the dog of the Ming Dynasty can be saved."
"But unfortunately, you're not."
"Is there any way to obtain the right of residence in Ming Dynasty?"
"Don't fantasize. It's possible for Italians and Spaniards to pretend to be barbarians. We British and Northern Europeans are typical white people, with only a little higher status than black people. Ming Dynasty doesn't want them at all."
"Farke, the entire Hudson's Bay Company has disappeared, and my stocks..."
"There is also compensation, and your Majesty will definitely increase taxes."
"We are going to organize a protest among MPs."
“Can tax increases be imposed on the American colonies?”
"Yes, it should be added to the colonies."
At the same time, King George III of England was also reading newspapers in his manor.
Although I have seen the conditions of the peace treaty, I already know that those conditions have to be accepted.
But the sixty-seven-year-old King George III was already a bit mentally ill, and now he feels particularly irritable and bored when reading these articles.
In addition, in the past few months, information and articles related to Peter have been appearing frequently and intensively.
Various overt or covert analyses, put Pitt in a very strange position, vaguely comparable to Lord Protector Cromwell.
The key is that there are just as many articles that constantly describe and record the close interactions and exchanges between Peter and Prince Daming.
Photos of the two laughing together and of the two toasting each other often appeared in front of George III.
George III considered several times whether to remove Pitt from the premiership.
Only considering the current bad situation and considering that Peter was indeed very talented, George III had to forcibly resist his impulse.
Now looking again at the final terms of the peace treaty and thinking about what might have happened in Parliament and the Cabinet, George III made a formal decision.
When Peter comes back, just tell him to get out, and take the responsibility of ceding the land and paying compensation, so as to calm the anger of investors whose interests have been harmed.
After making a decision in his heart, the old king didn't want to endure it for a moment.
He directly wrote Peter's order to remove him from office and signed his name directly, but did not write the date for the time being.
When all negotiations end, write the next day's date on it and send it out directly.
As time passed, the morning and evening line continued to move westward, and the British and French colonies in the east of Yinzhou also won a new morning.
In several major cities, the news in newspapers quickly spread among the people, triggering common indignation among Americans.
New York, the colonial capital of the United States, Manhattan Island, Longacre Square.
A middle-aged man stood on an advertising stand and gave a loud speech in a roaring voice:
"Stupid, cowardly, lazy British, they finally betrayed us!
"Florida, our warmest sunny beach in the United States, will belong to Ming Dynasty from now on.
“Americans’ future is completely locked up.
"The vast and fertile plains west of the Mississippi River will have nothing to do with us in the United States from now on!
“The entire Mississippi River, the natural waterway we were once proud of, will also belong to Ming Dynasty in the future.
"My God, the dividing line that the British talked about is not even the middle line of the channel, but the entire river surface belongs to the Ming Dynasty.
“We Americans are not allowed to enter Mississippi again!
“From now on, America no longer belongs to us, America, but to the Ming Empire that defeated the British!
"There is also the most critical reparations. There is no doubt that the British will pass it on to us Americans!
“We hardworking, hard-working, down-to-earth Americans must pay for the stupidity of the British with our blood and sweat!
“Look at our neighbors, look at the west side of the American continent, which is the Ming Dynasty’s colony.
“What were Ming’s colonies like?
“Ming Dynasty has given citizenship rights to all immigrants!
“In the future, in any colony of the Ming Dynasty, all immigrants from the Ming Dynasty will have the citizenship of the Ming Dynasty!
“All Ming people, no matter where they are, are Ming people.
“And we Americans will always be just people from the British colonies, and we will always be just dogs of the British!
"We can't go on like this, we have to change everything!"
The middle-aged man's speech resonated with the spirit of a large number of passing Americans.
Many people stopped and listened.
Many people roared with him.
Many people followed and cursed the British.
Some people also shouted that it is better to be a colony of the British than to be a dog of the Ming Dynasty.
Many people shouted that the damn British should be abandoned and Americans should stand on their own feet.
The whole square was filled with anger, and more and more people gathered.
The police patrolling the square were originally going to stop the middle-aged man from speaking.
As a result, after hearing the content of the speech clearly, I finally watched silently.
At the same time, in an office not far away, three senior members of the American Colonial Congress were also discussing the situation.
They are John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison.
Jefferson placed a telegraph message on top of a newspaper:
“According to the news sent by Monroe, Ming Dynasty gave a clearer signal at that time.
"If we in the United States pursue independence, Ming Dynasty will definitely support us."
Madison chuckled bitterly and said:
"There is no doubt that Ming Dynasty won a great victory in this negotiation and has become the absolute world leader.
“The next strategic goal is to weaken the British and French who have a little more energy.
"He's just taking advantage of us."
Adams, the oldest, said with a rather sad expression:
"The British... no, not just the British, the French and the British may increase taxes in the American colonies to pay compensation to the Ming Dynasty.
"The atmosphere in the colony is already full of anger. As long as someone rises up, a war will break out immediately.
"But this time the battlefield is no longer Germany, no longer India, no longer China, it is us, the United States and Canada..."
Madison closed her eyes and sighed:
"But... we Americans have no choice. The French may turn Canada into their homeland, but the British have no chance at all.
"Even if we remain inactive, it is likely that other activists will instigate action, and an independence war may break out at any time."
Jefferson frowned and considered for a while:
“With our industrial strength in the United States, even after we become completely independent, we will not be weaker than Austria and Italy.
"But the question is, does Ming really purely support our independence to weaken Britain, or does it want to annex us after we become independent?"
Madison said with a straight face:
"We can only let Monroe contact Ming Dynasty and continue to find out the other side's Ming Dynasty. Can they make a promise similar to not occupying the mainland of the West?"
Several representatives nodded slightly, and then Adams said:
"There is another very critical question. If we succeed in establishing an independent American empire, who will be the emperor?
"Are we going to find a royal member on the European continent?"
Jefferson shook his head directly:
"Then it would be better to find a Ming prince to be the emperor... just be the king.
“With Prince Ming as king, in the future we in the United States will at least be on an equal footing with the British in the League of Nations.
"It's just that it might cause us to become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty."
The other two representatives also shook their heads and felt sad.
The three founding fathers of the original United States have limitations of the times and environment in this world.
In an environment where the monarchy is popular and the republic is sinking and collapsing, and when Mingxue Minghua is widely popular.
They never thought about adopting a republican system, and as a result they had difficulties with the monarch.
In the end, we discussed it for a long time with no result.
