Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 371 Calculation
When the discussion with Adolf was almost done, Franz II suddenly asked another question: "If we marry the Ming Dynasty, should we marry their emperor? Or marry their prince?"

Adolf said confidently: "Of course he is married to His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom—you should know that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom has two brothers, and these two brothers have each become the king of a country, and they are separated from each other. The Ming Dynasty is far away."

"Under such circumstances, if we want to marry the Ming Kingdom, the best choice is of course His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom."

"According to the information I have learned, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is only in his 20s or 30s, which can be considered very young."

"Moreover, the rules of the Ming Dynasty are very different from our Europa. Like our Europa, we usually only have one wife, but the emperor of the Ming Dynasty can have many wives. If His Majesty is married, there is no need to worry that the women of the Habsburg family can only be mistresses of the Ming Emperor."

After Adolf finished speaking, Franz II couldn't help but nodded.

Judging from the age, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom is in his prime, and I heard that the emperor of the Ming Kingdom already has several sons, so there is definitely no problem with his health. There is no need to worry about the daughter of the Habsburg family becoming a widow after marriage.

From the perspective of the country, the power of the Ming country is at its peak, and the entire small ball is respected by the Ming country. If the Habsburg family can really marry the Ming country, it is the Habsburg family that has climbed the Ming country.

Of course, these are not the most important. The most important thing is that once the marriage is successful, the status of the Habsburg family in Europa will far surpass that of France. Can the relationship between pen pals and friends be as strong as the relationship between in-laws?

The more disturbing question now is which daughter of the Habsburg family should be chosen. After all, she is married to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so she must pay attention to her background, appearance and figure.

Just as Franz II was pondering which daughter of the Habsburg family to choose, Adolf went on to say: "In addition, if we really succeed in marrying the Ming Dynasty, then our Habsburg family must prepare in advance. Giving a fief to the Ming country can be regarded as a tradition in the Ming country."

Franz II waved his hand very simply and said: "With Bavaria as a fiefdom, no matter which daughter of the Habsburg family is chosen, she will be the Grand Duchess of Bavaria. If she has a son with the Emperor of Ming Dynasty , her son can even become the Prince of Austria, and must become the Prince of Austria."

Hearing what Franz II said, Adolf felt that he would not be able to - if any daughter of the Habsburg family successfully married the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and had a son, her son would be crowned as the Prince of Austria, That means that the Austrian royal family will be entangled with the Ming royal family!

From this point of view, this situation is of course the most beneficial to the Habsburg family.

However, would the emperor of the Ming Dynasty allow his son to be crowned Prince of Austria?

According to the knowledge Adolf learned from the Ming Kingdom, the sons of the Ming Emperor’s sons will definitely be canonized as princes, but their fiefdoms will generally be in the Ming Kingdom’s mainland, and will not be canonized outside the Ming Kingdom’s mainland. Not to mention a place as far away as Bavaria in Europa.

Yes, it's a broken place.

Although Bavaria can be regarded as rich in the whole of Europa, compared with the mainland of Ming Dynasty, Bavaria is simply a backcountry with no shit!

Not to mention that the area of ​​Bavaria itself is not large.

The place is small and as poor as a dog. How can such a dilapidated place be qualified to be the fiefdom of the prince of the Ming Dynasty?
But looking at it from another angle, it's not entirely impossible.

For example, the eldest son of the Ming emperor was canonized as the Liao king, and the fiefdom was Eastern Siberia, which originally belonged to Sand Goose, plus Central Siberia. Siberia and Central Siberia are also considered to be poor and remote, and the reason why the eldest son of the Ming emperor was canonized as the Liao king was because the Ming emperor had a wife who was from the Sauron tribe, and it happened to be far away from Eastern Siberia. close.

From this logic point of view, if the daughter of the Habsburg family can really marry the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and give birth to a son, is it really possible to become the Prince of Bavaria?
The only question is, will the future Prince of Bavaria be crowned Prince of Austria?
After thinking about it for a long time but still not coming up with a reason, Adolf simply shook his head, got rid of all these messy thoughts, and then bowed to Franz II and said: "Dear Your Majesty, I hope to be able to Go to the Ming Dynasty once, and go there as an overseas student."

Franz II frowned and said, "I remember you studied art?"

After Adolf nodded, Franz II went on to say: "Although you are very talented in politics and military affairs, you are an art student after all. If you go to the Ming Dynasty, what do you plan to study? Could it be that you are studying the Ming Dynasty?" Art?"

"Also, the situation in Europa is now in such a mess. Both Austria and I still need your wisdom. If you go to Ming to study, what will the Habsburg family and Austria do?"

Adolf bowed and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, although the situation in Europa is chaotic, no matter how chaotic it is, the ultimate core lies in the war between our Habsburg family and the Sand Goose, and it is also the war between France, England and the Ming Kingdom. The issue of interests, in the final analysis, is still an issue of the interests of the Ming country.”

"So, the next thing we have to do is actually how to make the interests of the Habsburg family consistent with the interests of the Ming Dynasty."

Franz II frowned and said, "What about you? What are you going to learn when you arrive in Ming Dynasty?"

Adolf bowed and said: "I am going to study the military of the Ming Dynasty, just like I just proposed to quickly raid the capital of the Sand Goose, this is what I learned in the Ming Dynasty - but you can never imagine how I learned this theory .”

After being told by Adolf, Franz II immediately became interested, and asked after oh, "How did you learn it?"

"Listen to others!" Adolf bowed and replied: "When I was in the Ming Dynasty, I went to a teahouse in the Ming Dynasty, and someone in the teahouse in the Ming Dynasty was telling a story, and the story mentioned that soldiers are precious and fast! "

"Even the folk tales of the Ming Dynasty are full of the wisdom of war. It is conceivable how powerful the military theory and art of war in their army must be!"

After careful consideration, Franz II couldn't help but nodded, and he accepted Adolf's proposal: "If this is the case, then you go, I hope you can manage those foreign students well, and let more of international students come back to Austria.”

……

While Franz II, Adolf and others were counting Sand Goose, Louis XVI and George III were also counting Sand Goose.

The main reason is that Sand Goose, like Ottoman, wants to mix in Europa's circle, actively participate in Europa's affairs and even wars, but the countries in Europa have never regarded Sand Goose as a part of Europa.

Louis XVI said to George III with a smile: "This time, as long as the Habsburg family is not as stupid as before, it is estimated that they can bite off a piece of meat from the sand goose."

George III also nodded with a grin, and said, "The sand goose is really screwed this time. This guy is too close to Daming, too close to Europa, and the result is that he is not pleasing to both sides."

Having said this, George III suddenly changed the subject and said: "But again, if the Habsburg family really bites off a piece of meat from the sand goose, then the strength of the Habsburg family will not be the same. Has it become stronger? Is this not a good thing for us?"

Louis XVI shook his head with a smile, and asked: "No matter how strong they are, how strong can they be? Will their flintlock guns become the percussion guns we use? Or will their artillery surpass ours? artillery?"

"As you know, the percussion gun we are using now is a new type of equipment that the Ming army has just replaced. Whether it is range, speed of fire or accuracy, it is far beyond the flintlock gun used before."

"As for the artillery, do you think there are artillery in this world that surpass the Ming Dynasty?"

After being said by Louis XVI, George III immediately felt relieved.

As the king of England, George III's military capabilities are actually not very good, and his understanding of muskets and artillery is far inferior to that of Louis XVI, the inconspicuous locksmith king.

But George III also knew in his heart that since the artillery of the Ming Dynasty was updated repeatedly, the decisive factor on the battlefield is no longer the musket, but the artillery produced by the Ming Dynasty—the barrel produced by the Ming Dynasty is the most durable. , the available time even reached an unprecedented 3 minutes, the Ming Dynasty artillery is the well-deserved king of artillery!

Yes, while the lifespan of the barrels produced by other countries is still struggling at 1 minute, the lifespan of the barrels produced by Daming has reached a terrible 3 minutes!
Perhaps many people think that the barrel of a cannon should not have a lifespan of only 3 minutes. After all, it will take as long as several days or months to fire one round after another. to calculate.

In fact, the calculation of the life of the barrel is the time from when the shell is ignited to when it is pushed out of the muzzle, and this time is usually calculated in a few tenths of a second. The service life of 3 minutes is already amazing!
Thinking of this, George III simply turned the topic back to Sand Goose: "Tell me, how big will the Sand Goose's loss be this time?"

Louis XVI shook his head and said: "I can't guess, although the strength of Sand Goose can be considered strong, but this time, after all, it is the Habsburg family who brought a group of small European countries to open a film with Sand Goose. The war will never end in a short while."

George III nodded, and after thinking about it secretly, he said, "If this is the case, how should we cooperate with each other? You know that here in Europe is your France and our England, and in Xiaopo Under the framework of the pot, the two of us now have more room for cooperation."

This is also the reason why George III ran from England to France—although they all followed Daming, George III also knew in his heart that the distance and strength between each other and Daming would greatly affect each other. The status of the small broken pot in the world.

For example, because the Sand Goose is a little stronger and has a little more borders with the Ming Kingdom, the Ming Kingdom took advantage of the situation to support the Habsburg family in order to weaken the Sand Goose.

Although England and France have no such worries for the time being, George III still hopes that England can become stronger, not to mention comparing with Ming and France, but no matter what, it has to maintain its current status in the arena—better than a fool Eagles and sand geese are a little stronger.

And if you want to maintain your current status in the arena, you can't just rely on words.

Like the Jefferson of the Silly Eagle family, this guy did not hesitate to sell other countries on the Yindian continent, thus successfully making the interests of the Silly Eagle consistent with the interests of the Ming Dynasty.

In other words, it successfully tied the Silly Eagle to Daming's chariot.

This operation has greatly improved the status of the silly thief eagle in the arena of Xiaopoguo. It is no longer the inconspicuous little transparent. Youngest three!

This is unacceptable to George III.

It is precisely because of this that George III came to Paris to see if there is any opportunity for cooperation.

Of course, Louis XVI was also happy to cooperate with George III. After all, Jefferson sent someone to find Louis XVI to buy Louisiana before, which really disgusted Louis XVI.

As for whether cooperation with England will make England stronger and threaten France's status in the world, Louis XVI is not worried at all, because there is actually no direct conflict of interest between England and France. For example, England's core interests lie in its overseas colonies, while France's core interests lie in its attachment to Ming Dynasty, thus lying on the bodies of various countries in Europe to suck blood.

Of course, the most important thing is that Louis XVI doesn’t regard France as a European country at all now—since he decided to hang out with Emperor Ming, Louis XVI has been learning from Ming almost everywhere, whether it’s Ming’s The sociology system or the crazy infrastructure, Louis XVI directly copied it back to France, so that Paris now has the title of Xiaoming Kingdom!
