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

……

After the war, the trivial aftermath finishing work is very, very complicated.

Bearing the brunt was that the city of Santa Ana was finally successfully liberated, and more than [-] of the [-] defenders survived. The death rate was much higher than the battle where the prisoners took three in the suburbs of Mexico.

This is not entirely due to the brutality of the Dingguo Army, but the different forms of the two battles.

The former is a city defense battle under heavy artillery bombardment, and the death rate is of course much higher than that of a rout battle encountered in the wild.

But no matter what, when the two groups of people met in the Xinlu Coal Mine, they all rubbed their eyes with tears and expressed infinite emotion.

After the liberation of Santa Ana, there were basically no French people who formed resistance in the whole of Mexico.

The First Fleet of the French Empire and the Atlantic Fleet of the French Empire have long since changed flags and transformed into the Navy of the French Republic.

The Admiral of the Fleet, De La Salle, carried forward or in other words created the tradition of the navy. He hurried back to the mainland to go to the Qing emperor's side with his warship, and shared the first cup of the establishment of the Republic, regardless of the life and death of the army.

As a result, about 2 scattered French troops were captured.

Daming gathered a total of 11 French soldiers, all of whom were thrown into the mine.

Of course, these guys are professional soldiers, and they are professional soldiers with rich experience in war, so the value is still very high.

While preventing them from cascading troubles, Ming also actively negotiated with France and Prussia.

The French Third Republic, preoccupied with domestic political struggles, showed a lack of interest and sincerity.

Considering that most of the captives were Nassan's guards and soldiers of the two royalists, Bazin and McMahon, it was difficult for the Republican government to judge the political orientation of the 11 French troops.

However, Prussia has attached great importance to this matter.

King William I of Prussia even wrote a letter to Zhu Fugui himself.

In the letter, he changed the arrogance of the Europeans, affectionately called Zhu Fugui "the great Lord of the East", praised Zhu Fugui's achievements in reintegrating the East, and promised a reverse ransom equivalent to 500 million francs.

In fact, 500 million francs is not too little, equivalent to about 60 taels of silver, which can buy the hull of a real Dingyuan ship.

It's just that once the sea was too difficult for water, except Wushan is not a cloud.

Zhu Fugui, who knew the final amount of reparations in the Franco-Prussian War in history, it has become 50 billion.

500 million is too small, it can't be filled at all, and I don't feel it!

Chapter 384 Ming Pu Goulian, wedding preparations

Zhu Fugui also personally wrote back to Brother William.

In the letter, Zhu Fugui boasted to each other in a very good manner, and affectionately called William I "the natural lord of Germany".

But when the subject changed, Zhu Fugui said, Brother William, although we are both dragons and phoenixes and have a deep relationship, but in business, if you pay this little money, it will be difficult for me to do things for you.

How about this, 500 million francs Daming can only guarantee that he will not accept the ransom from France to release people within one year.

And if your country increases 50 francs, then Daming will increase the depth of these French slave labor's working mines by 50 meters.

Brother William, your generosity will determine the depth of the French chicken's dive. The decision is entirely up to you. What do you think?

In the end, Daming succeeded in obtaining small money worth 800 million francs, that is, 160 million Daming Tongbao, which explained the unstoppable friendship between Ming and Pu.

In fact, the ransom of only 800 million francs, the French Third Republic can not afford to pay, after all, France is much richer than Prussia.

The problem is, it's not just about money, this deal with Prussia is also an investment of Ming in diplomacy.

Zhu Fugui has always despised the moral sticks in China.

Especially for those Huang Na who are obsessed with obscenities and mustaches who have been rescued by old Chinese couples since they were young, are grateful to the Chinese, and are friendly to the Chinese. Zhu Fugui suggested that they go to the brain hospital to register as an expert.

After all, this problem is a bit serious, and the general attending physician can't see it.

However, although he despises the Germans and knows that the Germans are one of the most discriminating against Chinese or Asians, Zhu Fugui has to admit that they are the most worthwhile and reliable allies in this era .

Since they followed the path of the Pacific Rim Co-Prosperity Sphere, the little devil's idea of ​​forming an alliance back then was somewhat unavoidable.

Therefore, Zhu Fugui had long wanted to contact Prussia.

This time the handling of French prisoners of war is an excellent opportunity.

The year before last, under Bismarck's superb diplomatic skills, Prussia stabilized Britain and France, and defeated Denmark together with Austria.

And now, they took advantage of the opportunity of the Ming-French Second War to attract the attention of the whole world, solicited Italy to secretly defeat Austria, and kicked it out of the North German Union.

Soon, Prussia will complete the integration of the entire North German region to form a unified North German Federation.

At that time, it is inevitable that their conflicts with Britain and France will intensify infinitely.

In the original time and space, the unification and rise of North Germany and the outbreak of natural conflicts between Britain and France formed the main line of world war in the next few decades.

Zhu Fugui estimated that due to the emergence of the variable Daming, the world line will definitely change.

At least Ming Dynasty will not be like the Monroe Doctrine of the United States, who swallowed its humiliation and served the British Empire as the world's factory for decades. Its industrial strength far exceeds that of the latter. Dare not touch global hegemony.

Faced with the aggressive pressure from Ming Dynasty, Zhu Fugui felt that the European powers might not be able to use their brains, and it was very unlikely that they would hide their strengths and bide their time for decades, and then reap the benefits.

But no matter what, the change of the butterfly of Ming Dynasty is not enough to make European countries put down their prejudices and unite against Ming Dynasty.

If they have this ability and executive power, they won't be able to make a mess of the EU in the future.

Therefore, based on a comprehensive judgment, Zhu Fugui believes that the Ming and Pu countries currently have quite overlapping interests, and there will be a honeymoon period for a long time.

Therefore, at the same time as the Ming-Prussian secret agreement was signed, the Ming Dynasty Zhenger Bajing’s first agency in Europe, the Ming Dynasty Legation in Frankfurt, Prussia, was formally established.

The status of a minister is second only to that of an ambassador, and the two differ only in terms of seats and etiquette, and the diplomatic privileges and immunities they enjoy are exactly the same.

In fact, the first envoy to Putin had nothing to choose from. He was Zhao Yijiong, the only student majoring in German at the Imperial College of Foreign Languages.

It is said that he is a college student, but in fact Zhao Yijiong is 23 years old and is older than most officials in the Ministry of Rites.

In addition, the Ming Dynasty's diplomats did not have a deep accumulation, and the person with the most work experience would not exceed two and a half years.

So it is quite professional to let Zhao Yijiong graduate early, practice in Honglu Temple for three months, and then take office.

After all, in this era, so-called diplomats are just that.

There are also outstanding figures engaged in diplomacy like Bismarck, but they are actually only a few.

Diplomats, even those of later generations, are a fairly inbred profession.

This is even more so in Europe today, which is basically dominated by a few noble families.

The only advantage is that everyone is relatives, and it is easier to communicate with each other while drinking and chatting. It is really not certain how professional they are.

Zhu Fugui inspected Zhao Yijiong.

The young man is personable, strong, has a good capacity for alcohol, and is also very clever. He is a good seed for diplomacy.

As for whether he can be competent in the end, he can only take one step at a time.

But Zhu Fugui believes that the result should be quite good.

As if he wasn't being modest, Zhu Fugui felt that being the emperor had limited to do with his personal struggles, and the main thing was the process of history.

For example, the young children who studied in the United States organized by Yung Wing in history were nothing more than geniuses, they were just a group of poor and lower-middle peasants and children of small landlords.

Moreover, Yung Wing was able to get everything together, so what kind of special talent could he have?

However, with the advancement of the historical process, these hundreds of young children eventually became the originators of all walks of life in our country, reaching a height unimaginable for their brothers and sisters who stayed in China.

Going further, Liu Bang and Lu Zhi’s hometown in Peixian County, his wife Cao’s family in Xiahou, and Jiangjun Township and Jiangjun County, which have appeared innumerably in the cycle of Chinese history, and even Yiwu Business Group and Wenzhou Business Group. The rich man who started his business with business is actually the result of a little bit of personal struggle under the historical process.

As far as Ming's diplomatic career is concerned, the historical process is already in place, and the next step depends on their personal struggles.

……

The establishment of diplomatic relations between Ming and Pu, and even the exchange of envoys between Ming and Britain, which had already established diplomatic relations, will definitely be a major event that will shake the European political arena.

The reason why William invited Daming to send an envoy to Frankfurt instead of Berlin was to lower his profile as much as possible and reduce the influence.

And the matter is still under high secrecy.

Zhao Yijiong also needs to receive three months of training in Honglu Temple, and learn to understand Zhu Fugui's ideological and characteristic diplomacy in the new era.

During this period of time, Zhu Fugui was certainly not idle.

The first thing is to go to Yellowstone Natural Park for vacation.

There is a spring of loyalty and honesty, and His Majesty Zhu Fugui has the same quality.

So this time he did not bring his two concubines, but spent a sweet week with Miss Julie.

Although Zhu Fugui did not extort ransom from the French this time, through Julie's trade, Zhu Fugui's personal money has harvested a large sum of French leeks on the Paris Stock Exchange.

The money Zhu Fugui earned from the Paris stock market crash was 1/7 of the Francophone indemnity.Of course, the reason why Julie's actions are so smooth is also inseparable from her confidence in Zhu Fugui.

After all, the whole world was convinced that France would be defeated in Mexico, and even the emperor was captured alive, and only Zhu Fugui himself and his little fan girl were the only ones.

Another important reason why Zhu Fugui didn't kill Nasan was that Zhu Fugui planned to let him preside over his wedding with his classmate Little Milu.

Although Julie is eccentric, she is the eldest lady of the Vanderbilt family after all, and a strong little bourgeois plot is inevitable.

She had said a long time ago that the prince in her dream would marry her on a white horse and bring her a wedding that even European noble ladies would envy.

Now that Zhu Fugui has captured Nasan, he has a white horse and a master of ceremonies all at once.

The white horse that takes three is worth 1200 million francs, which is worth more than the Prussian reverse ransom.

It doesn't matter that Song Jiqiu hit His Majesty Nasan with a motorcycle, the key is that the white horse was also broken and fractured, and it is currently being treated by veterinarians from the preparatory office of Fengdu Zoo.

What makes people speechless is that the veterinarian reported to Zhu Fugui two days ago that His Majesty's loyal Buckley had attempted to rape the French white horse several times, and the latter had to be transferred from the stables of the Fugui Palace.

Buckley was a mule specially found by Zhu Fugui before he could ride a horse.

It was a local mule.

Logically speaking, a mule should not be able to reproduce. I really don't know why it would harass the white horse.

Isn't this as unreasonable as Lao Li's brothel?

In short, Zhu Fugui now has an emcee and a white horse, and he still needs a few reliable best man and bridesmaids before he can formally propose to Julie.

Chapter 385 The Hidden Battlefield

Shanghai, Hongkou.

With the start of the Ming-Fa First War in the East, the so-called Anglo-American United Concession had already existed in name only.

The British Concession and the American Concession, which were originally integrated into the United Settlement, became independent.

Everyone also knew that the so-called American envoy was just a marionette of Ming Dynasty, and the so-called American Concession was actually Daming's concession in Shanghai.

Daming has a concession in Shanghai. This incident sounds magical, but it just happened.

Huaxia land has been sinking for two hundred years, and this land naturally needs to be reborn with blood.

However, Daming still needs to plan how much blood will be shed and who will shed it.

After Japan’s Honshu Island and Shikoku Island became the prefectures of Washima Island in the Ming Dynasty, the population decreased by a full 1/3. Even after such a bloody scene, the social transformation of the Ming Dynasty towards Japan was not completely completed. .

The shortage of a large number of grassroots cadres is the biggest problem.

Grassroots cadres are not just issued an imperial list, and they can be passed by Enke after just one session.

A young cadre needs to keep learning:

In politics, always keep in mind the teachings of the sage and the emperor, and master the advanced Ming thought system;

In terms of working methods, one must respect and understand science, have a certain degree of scientific and cultural literacy, pay attention to combining theory with practice, and have at least one year of work experience in various agricultural reclamation centers, townships, and factories and mines in the Ming Dynasty headquarters.

Only in this way can a qualified grassroots official of the Ming Dynasty be able to cut off the roots of the village sages and clans in the intricate old society, educate the people to enjoy the imperial way, and let the imperial power directly reach below the county level for the first time in 3000 years. To the township, to the village, to the hearts of every Daming citizen.

According to the calculations of the Ministry of Households, if the rejuvenation of Ming Dynasty wants to reshape Shenzhou and control Jiuding, instead of being called rejuvenation like Liu Xiu of the Later Han Dynasty, but in fact it is just a compromise with the aristocratic family to share the world, then the number of grassroots cadres needed At least 5 people.

From this figure, there is still a big gap in Daming's cadre training system, and he is making up lessons.

Of course, Daming would not foolishly wait until he was fully prepared before returning to Shenzhou.

China is so big, enough to cut sausages slowly.

As for the American Concession in Shanghai, it was just a small snack that Daming got at random before cutting the sausages into large pieces.

……

20 years ago, Wen Huilian, Bishop of the Anglican Church of Citigroup, and Wu Jianzhang, the agent of Shanghai Road, made an oral agreement to use the Hongkou area on the north bank of the Suzhou River as the American Concession.

After successive generations of American consuls and ministers, the area of ​​the American Concession had reached 5.24 square kilometers before Daming took over.
