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

Suddenly he felt a darkness in front of his eyes.

"Oh my god, it's an avalanche, run! I won't pretend anymore!"

Zhu Fugui screamed and jumped up from Xiaolan's lap, who quickly hugged him, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Chapter 344 Volcanic Eruption

"Oh... so it was a dream, I thought it was an earthquake!"

Zhu Fugui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, but saw a spherical object kneeling down with a bang.

"This old slave disturbed Lord Long Live's lunch break, this old slave deserves to die!"

Zhu Fugui took a closer look, it turned out that there was an avalanche or an earthquake, it was obviously the old eunuch Li who ran in with a telegram.

Zhu Fugui didn't blame him either.

After all, people who are almost 50 years old, except for the indicators on the test sheet are a mess, don't know how many years they can be with me.

For Lao Li, it's better!

Zhu Fugui took the telegram and read it.

It must be a very important thing for Lao Li to come in during his Japanese massage time.

"Is it a telegram from the Wajima Governor's Office again?"

Zhu Fugui frowned.

It was right for me to let that Xi Yazhou ask for instructions early and report late, but I didn't let him have five calls a day, even at noon.

I just reprimanded him about the movie last time, and Xi Yazhou sent a telegram to Fugui Palace very diligently afterwards.

Even organizing an essay competition for elementary school students in Japan to write essays about their impressions of watching movies, and the selection of the top three at the end had to be finalized by Zhu Fugui, the Long Live God himself.

Are you annoying?

Those elementary school students' OOXX, who the hell has the time to read it.

So this time, when Zhu Fugui saw the telegram from Xi Yazhou, he had nothing good to say in his heart.

However, when Zhu Fugui carefully read the contents of the following telegram, his expression suddenly became serious.

This time Xi Yaya was not playing with snakes.

This is indeed a big deal.

After eight months of peace and comfort, the three armies of the Ming Dynasty may have new enemies.

And this time the enemies are not only the shameless and cruel western colonists, but also the terrible natural disasters, and the barbaric and rude aborigines...

"On August [-]th of the fourth year of Dewu in the Ming Dynasty, between Java Island and Sumatra Island in the South Sea, fireworks shot up into the sky. The sound was like thunder, and it continued day and night. It was heard for hundreds of miles..."

Just ten days ago, Krakatoa, known as the most dangerous volcano in the world, erupted again.

In this era, places like Java are undoubtedly the most marginal corners of the world and are not taken seriously.

So much so that Zhu Fugui didn't notice the disaster at all when he was looking through historical materials.

The Governor's Mansion of Wa Island had just received news from Nanyang, so it hurriedly reported to Fengdu.

Zhu Fugui rubbed his forehead, a little depressed.

It's really not the right time for this damn volcano to erupt!

To be honest, Zhu Fugui really doesn't have the energy to intervene in Nanyang affairs now. He would rather go to South America to make troubles than do troubles in Nanyang at this time.

It is not unreasonable for "Entry into Customs" to refer to Malacca as the "Shanhaiguan" of Daiming (referring to the United States).

Malacca is stuck on the world's busiest and most profitable waterway, which is crucial to any global power.

Zhu Fugui has no doubt that as long as he dares to move Nanyang, not only the British, but also the French, Spaniards, and Dutch will definitely declare war on Ming Dynasty immediately, and it will be the Crimean style, you die and I die The battle of the country.

Spain and the Netherlands are indeed making up the numbers, and the French can also discuss it, but today's Victorian Britain, which is at its peak and the largest empire in human history, is indeed not an opponent that can easily go to war with it.

At least at least, the battlefield must not be chosen in a ghost place like Nanyang.

Today, Ming's national power and population are not enough to support sending hundreds of thousands of troops to Nanyang to fight and die.

Zhu Fugui fully understood this point, so for a long time, Daming tried his best to cover up his coveting of Nanyang internationally, but only mentioned it in domestic education.

In this era, due to the inefficiency of information communication methods and the deep cultural and language barriers, it is not at all possible to completely separate internal propaganda from external propaganda.

As early as when Yuyin broadcast "Eight Great Hatreds", Zhu Fugui listed a crime in which the Europa people killed our Nanyang Huaguo.

Before the nineteenth century, the Chinese established at least eight countries in Nanyang, all of which were eventually destroyed by Western powers.

Of course, among the founders of these countries there were some criminal pirates, and even those who openly rebelled against the Ming court.

For example, after the rebel Zhang Lian was wiped out by Yu Dayou during the Jiajing period, he went into exile overseas, traveled southward, seized Sanfoqi Island (now Sumatra), made himself king, occupied Old Port, Johor, Malacca and other places, and ruled the roost for 40 years.

However, Daming naturally wouldn't mention these dark histories.

Moreover, although the people rebelled, the emperor also regarded him as a child. The awakening that Chongzhen could have, of course Zhu Fugui could also have.

It was Daming's family affair that the Chinese rebelled against Daming, and it was not the turn of the red-haired ghost to destroy his country.

In short, for the audience of the official history of the Ming Dynasty, Nanyang has been my backyard of the Ming Dynasty since ancient times, and foreigners are not allowed to sleep soundly.

It will be a matter of time before Liting sweeps the acupoints and calms thousands of miles of sea and territory.

But not now.

The Ming Dynasty has always absorbed immigrants on a large scale. Except for a group of Fujianese from Guangdong at the beginning, most of them were refugees from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Henan, Shandong and other places recruited from the territory of the Huai Army in Shanghai.

On the one hand, this is because these places are now making trouble, and there are more refugees and it is easier to recruit, and it is easier for Li Hongzhang and the others to operate.

On the other hand, it was because Zhu Fugui didn't want to compete with Nanyang for population, let alone recruit Chinese from Nanyang to America.

Today's era is another peak for people from Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian to go to Nanyang.

At present, according to relevant information, the number of Chinese in Nanyang is about 400 million, and in a few decades, this number will rapidly increase to 1000 million.

Although it is said that these Nanyang Chinese are not strong enough to escape the fate of two-legged sheep, but isn't Daming backing them these days?

And even in later generations, the Malaysian Chinese among the Nanyang Chinese love China very much, and firmly believe that blood is thicker than water.

It can be said that MCA is the best Chinese in the world.

Excluding them, even if there are some Chinese in the end, um, Zhu Fugui swore that he didn't order that man Li who forced Nanyang Technological University to teach in English, and became a banana man, but such a thing has not happened now after all.

Even Li had some moments of progress when he was young, so he wasn't hopeless.

The Nanyang Chinese have been massacred repeatedly for hundreds of years.

Now that there is a catastrophe, the millions of Chinese will inevitably become the targets of plunder for the colonial authorities and the aborigines to vent their dissatisfaction.

Wanli and Zheng Ming could only write letters to condemn this kind of thing, and Qianlong didn't even bother to care about it.

Now the Manchu Qing government, which is too busy to take care of itself, can't count on it.

Looking around the world, who is the savior of the Chinese except me, Daming, who is in America?

Although it is not possible to intervene in Nanyang affairs under the slogan of recovering Nanyang, it is still what Ming must do to protect the overseas Chinese and maintain the safety of the local Chinese.

This matter is related to the natural legitimacy of the Mandate of Heaven, and also to the degree of cohesion of the final formation of the East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere.

How to make people attach themselves without touching the bottom line of Victoria's old lady is indeed a troublesome thing.

It was useless to think too much, Zhu Fugui got up and went to the office, and pressed the button on the desk.

Ito Hirobumi ran over quickly on his short legs.

As Huang Menling, he needs to be on call 24 hours a day to do various chores for Zhu Fugui.

"You go and check, the previous medical ship, that is, the blueprint for the transformation of the medical ship with the 'Mountains and Rivers in Different Lands, Wind and Moon in the Same Sky' is still there."

"In addition, immediately inform the six ministers, the ministers, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and the generals above the lieutenant colonel of the army and navy to go to the conference room of the Marshal's Mansion for a meeting."

Chapter 345 City Planning, Spy Infiltration

The Marshal's Mansion is not far from the Fugui Palace, but it still needs a car.

Today, the total population of Fengdu has exceeded 80.

Looking around the world, it can be said to be a mega city.

The urban population here refers to the population of the built-up area, which is an important indicator to measure the industrialization strength of a city in this era.

For example, Suzhou Prefecture has a population of nearly 500 million. It seems that Fengdu is far inferior to it.

But in fact, the vast majority of the population of Suzhou Prefecture actually live in the countryside and mainly work in agriculture.

Those who really live in the city are only 30 to 40.

Another example is Shanghai, the so-called largest port in the Far East. The urban population of Shanghai is less than 30 at this time.

At the same time, New York in the United States is 200 million, and Moscow in Tsarist Russia is 60.

It can be said that Fengdu has already ranked among the second-tier cities in the world, or the volume of quasi-first-tier cities.

However, the size of the city of Ming Dynasty is still incomparable to the giant of the British Empire.

At this time, the total population of London has reached a staggering 500 million, and their population in Bombay, the most important port in the East, is also 80.

In other words, the largest city in Ming Dynasty was only comparable to the British colonial city in terms of population size.

Of course, it doesn't make sense to compare manpower with India.

It is not known how many of the 80 people are real "human beings".

However, under British governance, the degree of industrialization of individual cities in India is indeed the first in Asia.

Although this kind of first is the cruel exploitation of other regions, the deformed first is formed.

All in all, if you do a population ranking, Fengdu has quietly become the top 20 metropolises in the world.

With a large population, governance problems will inevitably arise in the metropolis.

Such as garbage disposal and burial, such as medical support and public security management.

If there are many successful cases in solving the above problems, then the most difficult problem may be urban congestion.

Historically, in another 40 years, Ford cars were sold all over the United States, and both New York and Chicago were turned into city jams.

Now, Rising Sun Motors is repeating Ford's glory little by little, and Daming's infrastructure and transportation are also facing huge challenges.

Fortunately, Xinfeng is a new city built with modern concepts, which has avoided many thunders of later generations.

For example, many people think that the Beijing city of later generations is surrounded by rings, and its orientation is correct. Compared with other cities that always build new cities and development zones indiscriminately, they are better designed and more in line with international conventions.

This view is actually not correct and not comprehensive.

Taking the old city as a single center, it expands layer by layer;

Still like Tang Chang'an, according to certain functions, different square cities or new urban areas were built block by block;

These two ideas of building a city have been controversial at home and abroad for a long time.

Apart from Beijing, the representative work of the former is the "Greater London Plan" presided over by Apocrocrombie.

There is a single center, several large ring roads around it, and a green park is built on the outermost side to delimit the city.

If you want to expand again, build satellite cities outside this city.

This is the most classic and popular way of urban construction in later generations.

This is the case in Europe and the Soviet Union.

The typical representative of the opposite is actually Shenzhen.

Back then, local urban planners in my country looked at the rotten land in the small fishing village and could not apply the "Greater London Plan" at all. They could only explore new design models while building conveniences.

Shenzhen's construction has no central point from the very beginning, but a decentralized multi-point development.

Even creatively established the concept of development zone.

But all this is not due to the far-sightedness of the designers in Shenzhen.

The subsequent success of Shenzhen Urban Construction was more of an accident, but in the dark, this success secretly fit the traditional wisdom of the ancestors.

Later, the construction of many cities across the country, including the Pudong New Area in Shanghai, borrowed this idea.

Standing on the shoulders of future generations, Zhu Fugui looked back at history and knew that the facts proved that the Shenzhen model was more flexible and creative than the London model, although it could not please patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
