Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 603 Paris Summit

Even if he is pessimistic about the European Holy Alliance, an enemy with a certain combat power that can cause huge damage to Xiqing is what Ming needs and is in line with the basic interests of Ming.

So even though Liang Haisheng gave Louis XIV a failing grade in his heart, he would still support Louis XIV at this time.Because apart from France, other countries are really not enough to lead this holy alliance, and Da Ming obviously will not directly lead this coalition as an extraterritorial country.

Liang Haisheng did not give other countries the opportunity to raise doubts, but directly expressed Daming's views.

"We believe that the Kingdom of France, as an important force for maintaining peace in Europe, will play an irreplaceable role in the European Holy Alliance's war against the brutal Xiqing. At the same time, in order to support the European Holy Alliance against the Western Qing, Daming will send The European Holy Alliance provides all the weapons and equipment needed for a series of wars at a low price, including some weapons that have never been seen in Europe and are at the world's advanced level. Ming hopes to promote Europe's ability to maintain peace in this way."

The representatives and heads of state of various countries were shocked after hearing this speech, some were pleasantly surprised, but some were also chilled.

Louis XIV was very satisfied. This attitude was a support for France and the Ming Dynasty gave France face. Louis XIV felt that these Orientals were really interesting.

However, Orange William, the ruler of the Netherlands, quickly raised his own question: "We all believe that the weapons and equipment provided by Ming Dynasty must be the best things in the world, but we need a more precise statement about this low price. "

Liang Haisheng nodded. He knew that this point was very important to these European countries facing war, so he replied: "Aid will be provided through several aspects. The first aspect is free aid. We will provide a series of free aid according to the actual situation. The second aspect is that countries can order at a low price, and we will give a lower price than the original one. This low is the real low, at least half of the original level; the third aspect, if the Holy Alliance If the countries are still unable to support the funds, then we will consider providing loans according to the actual situation to assist the Holy Alliance to purchase weapons and equipment. The price is still the same as the second aspect; fourth, we accept some special payment methods, such as in-kind Barter, Daming accepts various flexible payment methods such as ores and raw materials, and we also accept payment in land..."

As soon as he said this, it immediately caused a commotion in the venue.

"Sure enough, you still have your mind set on our colony?"

"That's right, Daming's greed for land is well known."

Liang Haisheng still looked at these excited Europeans with a smile on his face. He coughed lightly, and the voice in the venue immediately became quieter.

"This is a matter of your own will, without any coercion. I want to remind everyone that although Da Ming has territory in Europe, the invasion of Europe by the Western Qing Dynasty will not harm the foundation of Da Ming. Our homeland is in the east of Xiazhou, and your motherland If you want to become an enslaved land, you will not only face the subjugation of the country, but also the possibility of extinction. Daming is not a philanthropist. All the weapons and equipment are made by our workers in Daming day and night, and they are all costly. Support the Holy Alliance of Europe, but there is no reason to do your work for nothing."

The representative of the Kingdom of Italy also echoed at this time: "Yes, it is not the duty of others to save your own country. Please make it clear."

It's just that his words won't be taken seriously by other people, because Italy and Daming are in a confederacy, and they wear a pair of pants.

The plan proposed by Ming Dynasty is actually similar to the Lend-Lease Act in the United States during World War II.When the Ming Dynasty did not really end the war, this method was used to maintain the combat effectiveness of various countries and weaken the Western Qing Dynasty.At the same time, through this demand, Ming Dynasty was able to further stimulate domestic production to survive the period of economic stagflation.

Henry Sidney, a front-bench member of Parliament who represented Britain at the meeting, asked: "Did Ming only supply weapons to the Holy Alliance of Europe, and not send troops to help?"

This is obviously a critical issue. The atmosphere in the venue seems to have become serious, and all eyes are fixed on Liang Haisheng.If he was an ordinary person, he might already have stage fright, but Liang Haisheng was calm and composed.Behind him stands the giant Daming, so he is always full of confidence.

"At least at this point in time, Daming will not send troops."

There was another commotion, and the venue was like a boiling cauldron, and the top lid was lifted.

Liang Haisheng didn't continue to explain anything, because there was no need to explain to these small countries what Ming did.

Louis XIV's expression was the most subtle, he was a little disappointed, but also a little happy.The disappointment is that there is no Ming army, so there will be less help from a powerful force.But the joy is that there is no Ming Dynasty, then France will be the number one leader, which will be of great benefit to the stabilization and improvement of France's position in Europe, and even France's international status.

Things were difficult and there were challenges, but the ambitious Louis XIV decided to accept the challenge.

"Gentlemen! We are Europeans. God is watching us. This is his test of us. It is a test of our courage, faith and tenacity. We cannot count on and depend on our friends. This is our Own war, a holy war..."

It has to be said that Louis XIV is still very provocative. At least the toughness and posture shown by France have encouraged some small countries to let them know that resistance is still a way.

"France has entered a full-scale mobilization. Our goal is - 90 troops! We will stand on the land we love and fight the barbaric Tatars to the last soldier. And every soldier who joins Partners of the Holy Alliance, we will stand together. Each ally will set a goal and set up a war plan. In terms of funds and equipment, the Holy Alliance will coordinate and deal with it. If there is a shortage, I believe Daming will be willing to lend a helping hand hands."

Liang Haisheng nodded chicly, and continued, "That's right, that's how it is. We will provide loans and assistance. Our goals are the same after all."

Louis XIV was so ambitious at the moment, he raised his arms, waved them, and cried: "Let Europe unite, let God's chosen people defeat those madmen! Long live the Holy Alliance of Europe!"
