Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 538 German Information
Xitang Prefecture, the capital of the Moroccan Consolation Division, was formerly known as Rabat.The reason why the name was changed is very simple. It is located on the west side of the mainland, guarding the Mediterranean Sea, a "small pond" of Ming Dynasty, so it is called Xitang.Due to the intervention of Ming Dynasty, Morocco began to enter a period of overall prosperity after the turbulent civil war ended 20 years ago. More than 30 Chinese poured into Morocco one after another. Coupled with European immigrants, Morocco became the Northwest African country. A very diverse and inclusive place.

The economic belt represented by the coastal area covered by green vegetation has formed, and some industries such as shipbuilding, processing industry and mechanical military industry have developed well.Moreover, Morocco already has good agricultural potential. Mediterranean economic crops such as olives, grapes, figs, and citrus are also widely planted here, and olive oil, wine, and food processing industries have been further developed to supply the local market of Daming in large quantities.

It can be said bluntly that because of the relationship with Ming Dynasty, Morocco's economy is very good, and the people are relatively rich. There are often illegal immigrants from Europe here, who want to get a better life here.

Morocco's natural scenery is also good, so many wealthy Ming Dynasty people will come here to experience the exotic customs. There are dozens of relatively luxurious hotels in Xitang Prefecture to welcome guests.

Duanmuwen, who is almost 50 years old, is at the swimming pool of a 30-storey five-star hotel, where some tourists are playing.Naturally, this very high-level intelligence officer of Jinyiwei was not on vacation here. A European man walked over quickly, put something on the table very casually, and then left.After a while, Duanmu Wen walked up and took away the things he put there.

It seems a little strange, this is obviously Daming's territory, but Jin Yiwei still uses such a covert method.

One of the reasons is that Morocco and Gibraltar on the opposite side have gradually become places where European countries and Da Ming collect intelligence from each other. To a certain extent, Da Ming acquiesced to this situation in order to profit from it.

With the information, Duanmuwen returned to the hotel room.This unremarkable room looks ordinary, but it is actually a room exclusively for Jin Yiwei's overseas intelligence personnel. A lot of decoration has been done, and only intelligence personnel live in it.

Opening the information, Duanmuwen read ten lines at a glance, and quickly read the continuous information.

He frowned and said nothing.

The old subordinate Han Ye who was also in the room asked, "What's going on?"

Duanmuwen said: "Prussia is about to launch a war that will change the fate of Germany."

Han Ye is also an old man on the European intelligence line. He knows European affairs well. He said, "Do the Prussians think they can challenge Austria?"

Prussia is still just a principality, but compared to Prussia in history, in Bai Mingxiu's plane, the Prussia established by Frederick William is stronger.In the "New Northern War", the Western Qing army swept across Poland, and Frederick William sent him a series of weapons purchased from Ming Dynasty with a lot of money, together with the instructors hired by Ming Dynasty, the new Prussian army with Junkers as the backbone was in Poland. After a tie with the careless Xiqing, Poland eventually perished. Prussia not only gained complete East Prussia, but also gained a lot of Polish territory.

The "Great Elector" Frederick William, who devoted himself to studying Ming's technology and industry, was extremely attentive, so in a short period of time he cultivated some steel and machinery industries, and began to imitate Ming's weapons.Frederick William's reforms were still very successful, coupled with his influence in North Germany, the national strength of Prussia gradually increased.And Prussia, which is constantly becoming stronger, also has a strong sense of crisis.Austria does not allow a German state to challenge its status, while the West Qing in the east is constantly expanding to the west.Frederick William saw that Italy in the south was unified under the influence of Ming Dynasty and became a European power. This also stimulated Germany to a certain extent, so Frederick William hoped to unify Germany and establish a German Empire .

Duan Muwen said: "Austria has been severely weakened by the war with the Western Qing Dynasty in the past two years. Although we support Italian-speaking Austria to form the Austrian-Italian Alliance, and have sent Austria a lot of weapons and even some loans, Austria is facing Xiqing, which is getting stronger and stronger, is already a bit weak in succession. Especially for the part of North Germany, Austria, as the boss of the German state, is getting more and more powerless, and at this time the Hohenzollern family has begun to pay attention. From the intelligence point of view, Prussia is going to start with some small states in North Germany with the issue of tariffs. These small states are incapable of resisting Prussia. Austria is still in a stalemate with the Western Qing Dynasty in the Balkans, and there will be no action for a while, so just watch How much the Principality of Prussia can achieve its own goals."

Perhaps it was because this plane, Daming, conducted a round-the-world voyage, completely defeated Spain, and carried out a round of spoils, so in the next 20 years, Europe was relatively peaceful, and the biggest conflict was between Austria, Italy and the West. The contradiction between Qing.On the Western European side, Britain and France each absorbed Ming's technology to carry out the industrial revolution, and they have achieved initial results, especially France's national power has become stronger and stronger.As a result, in Western Europe, Britain and France united to erode the Dutch maritime power.

In 1672, France even sent troops to invade the Netherlands, but the Netherlands resisted resolutely. Although some areas were controlled by France, they still resisted resolutely.The British, who were not very useful, suffered another defeat at sea, introduced Ming artillery, and the Dutch navy, which developed a new battle line method, beat the British navy. In the end, the Franco-Dutch and Anglo-Dutch wars were over.The Netherlands has strong support from Prussia, making Prussia and the Netherlands a de facto ally, while Britain is more like a vassal of France.

Louis XIV was very interested in expanding in North Germany, and Frederick William also noticed this sign, so he decided to do it himself first, regardless of whether the teacher was unknown or famous, he must seize the territory of North Germany.

European countries now have a serious sense of crisis, so they have made great efforts to develop and expand.

The Prussians wanted to unify Germany, the French wanted to dominate Europe, the British wanted to seize the Netherlands' maritime trade status, and the Dutch wanted to maintain their own maritime interests, so these countries fought back and forth with great joy.

The Xiqing, which looks like a giant tiger on the plains of Eastern Europe, is staring at these European prey indifferently. A big war may be just around the corner.
