Of course he knew that the Texans were ambitious and rebellious.
After the death of the white-eyed wolf Sam Houston, adopted by the Indians, Lone Star independents and even pro-Mexicans became active again.
It would have been fine if the southern government hadn't been cut off from them. Once it was cut off, it was like throwing sparks into a haystack, and it would ignite immediately.
Just when Robert Lee was at a loss for words, suddenly a fast horse came galloping from the southwest.
"General Li, General Li, the Prague prosecutor wants you to return to the capital as soon as possible, he has something important to discuss with you!"
……
Thomas Bragg was a political ally of Robert Lee and one of the patrons of the Army of Northern Virginia.
Before the Civil War, Bragg was the 34th governor of North Carolina and later served in the Senate of Congress.
At the same time, he was also one of the top three manor owners and slave owners in North Carolina.
It was for this reason that he joined the Southern camp as soon as the Civil War began.
But because of his original status as a member of the House of Representatives, Prague also has many close ties with major capitalists in the north.
After rushing back to Richmond from Bowling Green, Robert Lee rushed to his home in Prague without even having time to polish his shoes.
Compared with his estate and mansion in North Carolina, this small villa in Richmond is really not luxurious.
Robert Lee handed his little yellow hat to the footman, and the butler led him into the house.
"Oh, my dear old chap!"
In the living room, Bragg hugged Robert Lee with open arms, and reached out to caress the crocodile leather pants, "I love your fashion outfit!"
Although pleased with Bragg's compliment, Robert Lee hadn't come back in such a hurry to hear that.
If there is anyone who can get food when the British father betrayed him, then this person must be Prague.
"Mr. Attorney General, do you have any good news from me? Is it food? No matter how much food, we want it from the Northern Virginia Army!"
Robert Lee flashed innocent mung bean eyes, clasped his hands in front of his chest, as if praying, "Mr. Inspector General, you will definitely donate this generous military expenditure again, won't you?"
Seeing the expectant look on the other side's face, Prague's eyes twitched.
In fact, he already regretted throwing money into this bottomless pit.
Originally, it was nothing to spend some money to defend his slave manor, but the problem is that he has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. It has been almost five years, and he still has no hope of ending the war. It's not from the strong wind!
"Robert, you misunderstood. Since the Yankees' navy blocked the port, the cotton in my several manors has piled up like a mountain and can only be used as firewood. For military expenses, you still have to find other gentlemen to find a way ah!"
Prague quickly put aside his relationship, and changed the topic: "The reason why I am so anxious to invite you here is mainly because I want to introduce a friend to you.
He may be able to solve your troubles.He comes from the top family in New York, and his name is Steve Vanderbilt! "
With that said, Bragg pushed open the door of the study.
I saw an elegant middle-aged gentleman sitting inside, drinking Maojian elegantly from an aluminum coffee cup.
"Hey, hello, General Li, my son-in-law asked me to bring you a sentence..."
The middle-aged man took a sip of hot tea, then spoke slowly.
Chapter 242 "Emperor Ming's Letter to All Nations"
"Extraordinary, Chen Jisihan is resurrected, and the Christian world is in crisis!"
"Yellow peril is coming back, God's whip is waving again!"
"Revenge from China, Empress Dowager Cixi's Secret Dragon Guard!"
"The tears of San Francisco, the cruel and arrogant Chinese show their minions again!"
……
As the largest city west of the Mississippi River, the influence of Ming Dynasty's capture of San Francisco is far from comparable to the previous turmoil in the Northwest Territories.
In just half a month, in New York, Montreal, London... and even Paris, the news that a group of yellow people occupied white cities, burned, killed and looted hit the headlines of the newspapers.
The yellow peril, the terrible word that has made Europeans tremble for more than 1000 years, has once again appeared in the eyes of the world.
However, what is ironic is that these Western newspapers, which are good at concocting feckinous silk, are still outrageous this time.
Not only the title is outrageous, but the picture is even more outrageous.
For example, on a Danish newspaper, there is a picture of an ugly yellow man wearing Manchu costumes, big braids, sallow complexion, squinting eyes, and big buck teeth, holding the neck of a bald eagle with one hand, and Pull the hair from the back of its ass.
Just as the Manchu Qing government couldn't figure out the relationship between Rakshasa and England, most Europeans couldn't figure out what the difference between "Great Ming" and "Great Qing" was.
In fact, it’s not that no reporter seeks advice from someone who understands the difference before writing an article, but the inherent arrogance of white people makes their so-called interview more like a joke.
The reporter of "The Times" interviewed a Chinese treasurer who came to London with a Hong Kong foreign company, and asked him to talk about what "Daming" was.
The Chinese shopkeeper's ancestor was a domestic slave of the Thirteen Lines. He learned English since he was a child, and he also has a little understanding of the national conditions of the foreigners.
He explained in as simple and understandable words as possible: "The Ming Dynasty was a dynasty before the Qing Dynasty and ruled China 200 years ago..."
Then the reporter understood in seconds.
"It turned out to be similar to the relationship between the French Bourbon dynasty and the Orleans dynasty.
Then it must be that the Orleans family supported the descendants of Bourbon to colonize and restore overseas!
Oh, what a dirty aristocratic deal! "
The Chinese shopkeeper watched in a daze as the reporter talked to himself, writing like a snake on the manuscript paper.
Although he doesn't know much about Orleans and Bourbon, he can see that this reporter seems to understand some problems.
The Chinese shopkeeper couldn't help but reminded: "Mr. Reporter, the royal family of the Qing Dynasty were Tatars, not the main ethnic group in China..."
The reporter showed an expression that no one understands the rule of alien royal families better than us British, and stopped talking with this humble oriental man.
……
All in all, when these newspapers appeared one after another on the dragon case of the Long Live Lord of the Fugui Palace, what Zhu Fugui saw was such a bunch of dead mother articles.
"No reason!"
Old Li couldn't stand it anymore, the East Asians in this painting were uglier than him!
The 200-jin body jumped up, 5 centimeters off the ground, and Lao Li scolded angrily, "Long live, these barbarians are not educated one by one, and it is a heinous crime to put me on the side with the Tartars!"
"This old slave is willing to follow the example of Zheng He in the past, and go to the West again for Ming Dynasty. Chen Bing's inner... the inner bank of the Thames, captures the Victorian foreign woman and returns to Beijing to be punished by the Jiaofang Division!"
Looking at Lao Li who was filled with righteous indignation, Zhu Fugui twitched the corners of his mouth.
I said in my heart, don't compare yourself to Zheng He, let you lead the army, I'm afraid it will be worse than Song Huizong.
No matter how unbearable his childhood is, but he really knows how to fight well, you can play a chess game with my cheap old man, and create the worst relationship between a monarch and a minister in history.
I'm afraid that it's not Victoria who entered the Ming Dynasty's Jiaofang Division, but that this beautiful young man with delicate skin and tender flesh will be ravaged by the noble lady Europa!
Thinking of such terrible consequences, Zhu Fugui couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Of course, Lao Li is an old loyal servant, especially now that there are foreign ministers in front of him, it is not easy for Zhu Fugui to reprimand him.
He could only laugh and said: "Li Banban, don't get angry, anger can hurt your liver, your liver function has already exceeded the standard by four times! You should rest well, don't be so diligent!"
To appease the angry Lao Li, Zhu Fugui discussed with several other important ministers.
Since the generals Qi Wenchang and Mo Bai were both leading the army, this discussion was not mainly about military affairs, but was conducted from the political, diplomatic, and economic levels.
After two full days of planning, a motorcycle carried the signal troops all the way north, towards New Qinhuangdao, the north-facing ferry.
……
Although Ming Dynasty has no diplomatic relations with the Canadian territories, let alone laying telegraph lines, there are still private economic and trade exchanges.
After all, it is very difficult for that ghostly place in Canada to get rid of its dependence on goods from the south, so it can only allow Ming's merchants to move around in a small area.
The document sent by the messenger was quickly sent to the editorial office of the "New England Journal" by a firm selling cotton shoes.
……
It is not possible to keep a low profile on such things as keeping a low profile.
Now Ming has occupied 2/3 of the land on the west coast of Citigroup, and the remaining half of California is also competing with the Lone Star Republic, and the battle is going smoothly.
That is to say, if there is no accident, in the next one or two months, the nominal land area of Daming will reach more than 80 square kilometers.
What concept is this?
In the 21st century, Daming's land area can also rank among the 34th in the world, second only to Pakistan, slightly larger than Namibia and Mozambique.
That big Ming, like a firefly in the dark night, can't hide anymore!
If we say that the main strategic policy of Ming Dynasty in the past two years was dormancy.
So now that the three-year period has come, it's time for the world to feel the pain of the crooked neck tree!
Through his old friend "New England Newspaper", Zhu Fugui published a column under the pseudonym "Death Bell" - Chinese-English double edition "Edict of Ming Emperor to All Nations".
Since the new Qinhuangdao incident, the relationship between Daming and Canada has been tense.
The New England Journal did not want to publish Zhu Fugui's article.
But Daming gave too much...
……
Although the Ming Dynasty had the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it was a new regime after all. Except for the garrisons and officials in the Grand Duchy of Seattle and the Changshu Domain of Japan, there were no diplomatic envoys in other countries.
The "Daming Times" was only published in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the Changzhou Fan, and Seattle.
Therefore, Zhu Fugui had no choice but to publish the declaration of the founding of the country in the newspapers of foreigners, to send out the voice of the Ming Dynasty to the world, to rectify the source, and to set the record straight.
Of course, Zhu Fugui would not imitate Cixi's coquettish operations such as declaring war on all nations.
After all, Ming's current national strength is limited, and it is still a bit tricky to really come to tens of thousands of "Eight-Power Allied Forces".
It's not that you can't beat it, but that it's unnecessary.
Chapter 243 Change of Strategic Focus
This is not Zhu Fugui's arrogance, but that the right time, place and people are all on Daming's side.
I have to sigh again, Daming's birth point is a needle but not a poke.
West Coast of North America.
Canada in the north is doomed not to become a big country because of the climate, and the Mexicans in the south are miserable.
To the west is the widest ocean in the world, to the east are the rolling Rocky Mountains and the uninhabited central Great Plains.
It can be said that this is a place chosen by God to advance and attack, and to retreat and defend.
In "Civilization 5", the characteristic of Millikin is "mandate of destiny", probably feeling that this product's geographical location is too superior, so that it made a lot of money in the two world wars, and left a reputation as an anti-FXS backbone .
Today, this "Mandate of Heaven" is divided into four parts, shared by Ming and Sanmi.
If the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded, the death place of New Qinhuangdao, as well as parts of California and Xinlu might not be able to defend.
However, relying on a strong army and the forts spread all over Xinjin Port, Daming can defend the two strategic locations of Xinjin Agricultural Reclamation Area and Xinfeng Industrial Area without any pressure.
Then blast all the allied forces of ghosts who dared to land into the sea to feed bastards.
……
Although he has confidence in force, Daming is not without weaknesses. Now that he has a small fortune, he can't break the pot like Cixi and that prodigal woman.
In this "Edict", Zhu Fugui generally used words in a relatively peaceful manner.
The Chinese version, in particular, was drafted by Xia Zhixin, Deputy Priest of the Imperial College of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhu Yijing, a member of the Zhonglie Temple of the Ministry of Rites.
In the "Edict", Zhu Fugui mainly talked about the glory of the ancestors of the old Zhu family, talked about Comrade Zhu Baba's achievements in expelling the Tartars and restoring China, and the legitimacy of himself as a descendant of Zhu Biao.
By the way, the map cannon was fired, indicating that Ming, as the direct heir of the three ancestors of China, has unquestionable sovereignty over the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties, Korea, Vietnam, Ryukyu, Japan, Malacca, Sulu, and the entire Americas.
These places have been an inseparable part of the Ming Dynasty since ancient times, as can be proved by detailed historical materials and unearthed cultural relics.
Of course, when the topic changed, Zhu Fugui still humbly stated that in view of the current situation in the world, Ming and the Barbarians of Europe should put aside their disputes and develop together.
Leave the issue of sovereignty to future generations. We must believe in the wisdom of young people in their teens who will grow up in the future.
It's just that Zhu Fugui didn't tell the ghosts that he, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, is only 18 years old this year, 17 years old.
Unexpectedly!
