I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

Although the country of Millikin (South) has been incorporated into the Ming trade system, they are obviously different from the states of Seattle, Aztec and Mayan Confederation.

From government officials to ordinary people, there are many people who do not agree with Da Ming and regard Da Ming as heresy.

Now he is on the side of Daming, just because of expediency in the face of the powerful enemy in the north.

Once the form changes, they may say no to Daming again.

This is unacceptable to Ming Liangzong.

An America that cannot be completely controlled by Da Ming from mind to body is not a good America.

Therefore, while strengthening economic and military control, Ming Dynasty is also preparing to infiltrate and contact the United States (South), starting from the younger generation, cultivating strong pro-Ming forces, and eventually completing peaceful evolution.

Liu Jie is just a member of this systematic project, and Li Cucumber is a young student carefully selected by Liu Jie after many days of observation.

There is no doubt that this is a young man who has been brainwashed by Daming's advanced cultural products, and has developed a similar destiny-like affection for Daming.

However, he still has a certain popularity among the students and has a strong ability to act.

Being able to watch three movies in a row also shows that this person has good patience.

Coupled with this kind of young man who has no sense of politics, he heard that Yu's ability is full, but he still has a sense of justice. He always feels that he should save this and save that.

Such a person is undoubtedly the best target to win over.

Liu Jie took out a number of exquisite, brand-new and unblemished pounds from the safe, and handed them to Li Cucumber, in addition to two unique and beautiful receipts.

"Brother Cucumber, these are two tickets to go to Daming to watch the Olympic Games. It's a gift from Brother Jie for you to ascend Dua!"

Liu Jie smiled, "The Olympics will be a show of civilizations from all over the world. I hope you will have a good time."

Looking at the 50 pound and 100 pound banknotes in his hand, Li Cucumber trembled with excitement.

You know, he had never seen a full £50 note in his life.

In the southern states, the currency issued by the Richmond government is now almost a waste paper.

The currencies discovered by the states themselves are even more unreliable, and they are considered inferior.

So now the real currency in circulation in the southern state is Zhu Datou, Daming Baochao, and British pounds.

Of course, Li Cucumber was even more excited about the two Olympic package tickets.

He had heard about the promotion of the Olympic Games a long time ago, but he really didn't expect that he would still have the opportunity to watch the competition live.

"Thank you so much, Jackie!"

Li Cucumber burst into tears with excitement, "Don't worry, I'll let my sister sew the sun and moon flag overnight, and I will definitely cheer for the athletes of Daming!"

Chapter 563

Half of Dewu's seven years passed without knowing it.

In the past six months, Zhu Fugui may have been most affected by the preparations for the Shanghai Olympic Games.

But what really worries him is the war in the Western Regions far away on the other side of the world.

The good news of the Western Expedition arrived together with the British protest letter.

They claimed that the Ming army had waged inhuman wars across the Western Regions.

The treatment of prisoners of war and shepherds violated the relevant provisions of the 1863 Geneva Convention.

By the way, after Sherman was cut, Daming was condemned once for this.

Although Ming was not a signatory of the "Convention", and even the emperor of Ming was still a piglet when the "Convention" appeared, this did not prevent the British from pointing fingers at Ming.

Ming Liangzong attached great importance to this and said that a special investigation team would be established immediately.

Two months later, the investigation team issued a report of more than 80 pages.

Research on British Soldiers Massacring 42 Civilians and Raping X[-] Waggir Goats in Afghanistan.

This kind of news, "The Times", "Daily Telegraph", "Guardian", and the "Manchester Guardian", which was launched just last year and just the year before, but firmly occupies the Manchester market, all collectively silenced.

Not a single newspaper reprinted or refuted Daming's investigation report, and they all pretended not to hear it.

This is not something that Daming can afford to make concessions by spending some money. Both Downing Street and Buckingham Palace have issued death orders, absolutely not allowing such fake news to flow into the British mainland.

As for the major colonies, including Ireland, and other European countries, the British government can't control them.

Today is not the era of news oligarchy.

Even if many countries are afraid of British hegemony, their royal families and governments do not have the ability to put an end to all kinds of disobedient tabloids.

In fact, a powerful government as strong as the German government has used various high-pressure methods to ban and arrest it repeatedly, and there is no way to completely prevent that ghost from appearing in various tabloids.

However, in this era, because of the high-yield pig breeds and grain breeds introduced from Ming Dynasty (which will degenerate after several generations), the per capita meat consumption in Germany has been greatly improved, and the society is stable, but some soil has been reduced.

Anyway, due to the continuous lobbying of the Crown Princess, the German Crown Prince Frederick, who has already participated in government affairs, presided over the news censorship this time, symbolically perfunctory a few words, and shut down a few people without pain .

However, there is no way to control the endless reports.

"New Berlin Zeitung", a newspaper controlled by Daming, reprinted the full text of Daming's investigation report, accompanied by vivid and interesting pictures.

The newspaper office of the "New Berliner Zeitung" was bombed by a suspected British agent, and Bismarck also submitted a protest to the British ambassador.

In short, after the first three days of pretending, a large number of newspapers in the German Empire soon filled the sky with news that the British raped goats.

So much so that a farm that introduced Valgil goats made a fortune.

To be honest, the British are really no match for the Germans compared to perverts.

It's just that the Germans are still the representatives of barbarians, and Britain and France are the top in the world.

It is also a decent thing to have the same hobbies as the upper-class Englishmen.

After all, the Afghan specialty goats like Valgil are really beautiful, and they belong to the beautiful goats among goats.

As for the [-] Afghans who died, no one cared at all.

In fact, even the number of [-] was randomly set by Zhu Fugui. No one knows exactly how dark the British guys are, and the number of [-] is probably too low.

In the first Anglo-Afghan War between Britain and Afghanistan in 1842, the British who had just beaten the Qing Dynasty to a bruised nose lost 16500 people in the Battle of Jalalabad.

A bloody reprisal against Kabul ensued.

Exactly how many people lost their lives is unknown.

Even on the Internet of later generations, Zhu Fugui could not find relevant records.

The guilt of the British has been completely wiped clean.

This may be their confidence to accuse Daming of farting even though their crotches are full of feces.

Of course, to be honest, their accusations did not cause any harm to Daming.

Today's Ming Dynasty is not the bald comprador government who always thank God and thank the civilized and friendly countries for upholding justice.

In essence, Daming should be regarded as a left-wing moderate dictatorial feudal autocratic dynasty.

In feudal dynasties, it was a routine operation to sweep the acupoints in Liting court.

This is a symbol of prosperity!

No one would ever reprimand Li Shiming and his son for annihilating Goguryeo and bringing back hundreds of thousands of slaves, right?

This may be a bit of a double standard, but history is like this.

As long as you are powerful enough and your cultural influence is far-reaching enough, the unspeakable ogre king can become the French emperor who returned to loyal Paris.

Therefore, Ming did not choose to deny some flaws in the Western Expedition at all, but launched a resolute public opinion war against the British.

In addition to traditional channels such as newspapers, Daming also tried for the first time to use the long-wave transoceanic radio station to broadcast "The Voice of Daming" to Europe.

This is also due to the new breakthroughs made by the Royal Academy of Sciences in radio technology, and the industrialized production of radio stations in Europe.

It's just that they don't know that the Daming Royal Broadcasting Station is so powerful that it can export to them across the ocean.

Britain, Spain, the Netherlands, France, and Austria all either forced or warned citizens who bought radios not to listen to enemy channels like "The Voice of Ming Dynasty".

The Germans were a little better, but they also sent a note to Ambassador Zhao Yijiong several times, asking Daming to censor content that was unfavorable to the German royal family in the program.

There is little nutrition in a war of words with European states.

In June of the seventh year of Dewu, Zhu Fugui finally waited for the Russians' request for negotiation.

Faced with the aggressive offensives of the Ming army and the Chu army, the Russians realized that if they continued to fight, they would lose all their strength in Central Asia.

Regarding this, Zhu Fugui contacted Zuo Zongtang by telegram, wanting to hear Brother Zuo's thoughts.

Zuo Zongtang replied with only two words: "Cross the river!"

To be honest, Zuo Zongtang was excited all over.

A year and a half ago, when he carried the coffin to the battle, all he could think about was to fight for his old life and keep the homeland of the Western Regions for China.

Zuo Zongtang calculated the winning rate of the war.

He believes that if Ming and Russia do not intervene, his winning rate should be around [-]%.

On this point, Zuo Zongtang is not modest, but a fact.

Historically, Zuo Zongtang's entry into Xinjiang to suppress the rebellion was not all smooth sailing. Liu Songshan and other Hunanese children did not even enter the hinterland of the Western Regions, and died near Ningxia.

If it weren't for the strong support of the Zuo family, whether it was the Manchu Qing court or the "national backbone" Li Zhongtang, they would have given up their thoughts of regaining the Western Regions long ago.

But this time, the progress of the war far exceeded Zuo Zongtang's imagination.

He originally thought that it would take at least five years to pacify Ganshan and Shaanxi, and it would take two to three years to recover the Western Regions.

If Russia, Britain, Austria and other countries intervene, the war will continue indefinitely.

After all, Daming is far away in the Americas, unlike Russia and Britain (India), which are connected to the land of the Western Regions, so he will face a arduous and hopeless war.

However, the reality is:

You can always believe in your pretty school!

Zuo Zongtang found out that he had never fought such a rich battle with his mother in his life.

Not enough livestock?Find Liang Zong.

Insufficient firepower?Find Liang Zong.

Running out of rations?Find Liang Zong.

In fact, even Zuo Zongtang himself was a little skeptical about life.

Is the Ming court really that rich?

Because according to Hu Xueyan's calculations, Daming sent over a variety of materials, with a total value of more than 1.2 million taels of silver.

1.2 million taels of silver!

Now is not the time when the price of silver plummeted when Gengzi paid the indemnity.

Today's 1 million taels of silver is fully 15 times that of the "Beijing Treaty"!

At that time, the Qing Dynasty could not collect 800 million taels of silver in search of mountains and seas, so it had to borrow money from foreigners' banks, but the Ming Dynasty was able to invest 15 times the silver without making a fuss.

This made Zuo Zongtang feel sorry for him.

On the one hand, he was worried that he would fail the Emperor Ming's great trust, and on the other hand, he knew very well that the officers and men of the Chu army were pissed, and knew that they had at least shared [-]% of the benefits.

Divide the profit into [-]%.

To be honest, this is absolutely honest among the various branches of the Hunan Army.

Not to mention the comparison with the Eight Banners and Green Camp.

This is the ethos formed by Zuo Zongtang's own uprightness and integrity, and he only left 3 taels of inheritance in his life.

But Zuo Zongtang still felt ashamed of the Son of Heaven.

I didn't use all the silver that the emperor saved by saving food and clothing.

But Zhu Fugui was not dissatisfied with this.

Lao Zuo can really build the Chu army into an army like the Yue family army, and my Ming Liang sect can't guarantee that I can't sleep and eat like Zhao Jiumei...

Of course, the Chu army itself does not have the ability to produce blood. Once it is weaned by Daming, it is as if the monkey grandson cannot jump out of Lu Lai Buddha's palm.

Zhu Fugui didn't worry about Lao Zuo's loyalty at all.

Moreover, the most important thing is that those materials are not worth 1.2 million taels of silver at all.
