Bury the Qing Dynasty

It is not difficult to get money out of Liu Huaiwen's hands. After all, Liu Huaiwen is in charge of the treasury of Ming Dynasty, and all places that need money from the entire Ming court have to go through the treasury. Even if the money that Liu Laojiao handles every day is not 1000 million There must also be 80.

Although the currency unit is Ming's Dragon Yuanbao notes instead of the taels used to calculate gold and silver, the amount is really astonishing enough. Many small countries may not even be able to save 80 Dragon Yuan throughout the year.

But, no matter how much money you have in hand, it doesn’t mean how generous Liu Huaiwen is—according to Liu Huaiwen’s stingy temperament that every soy bean he has to eat, it’s no problem for him to pay according to the budgets of Ming’s ministries and military government. It's an extremely difficult matter, and you still want him to take the initiative to pay more?

The probability of this happening is not much higher than the probability of the sun rising from the west.

Zeng Cheng even glanced at the sky outside the Wenhua Hall unconsciously.

The sun seems to be rising from the east today?
Seeing that Emperor Zhu, Zeng Cheng, Liu Heming and others looked at him with extraordinarily strange eyes, Liu Huaiwen's old face was a little uneasy: "Why is Your Majesty doing this to me?"

Emperor Zhu clicked his tongue twice and asked, "I really don't understand why Uncle Huaiwen is willing to take the initiative to pay out this time? And he paid such a large sum of 30 billion dragon yuan."

Liu Huaiwen sneered and said: "As the saying goes, under the overthrow of the nest, how can there be any eggs? Now these barbarians are united to attack our Ming Dynasty. The money in the treasury is not used for military expenses. Don't we have to wait for these barbarians to defeat us?" We were robbed after Ming Dynasty?"

Hearing what Liu Huaiwen said, Emperor Zhu couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing.

The phrase "How can there be a complete egg under the overturned nest" comes from "Shishuoxinyu·Words", which means that the whole suffers, and individual or parts cannot be preserved.

The truth is very simple, but it is such a simple truth, but many people can't understand it.

For example, the princes of Donglin back then.

If it weren't for the Donglin Zhugong's life-saving fight against taxes to collect money, Emperor Chongzhen would not have been able to raise a military salary of only 100 million taels of silver, and there would not have been a situation where Gou Chengzi attacked the capital while the Guan Ning army stood still. There will be no farce where Gou Chengzi copied 7000 million taels of salary later.

Later, the Qing Dynasty, which picked up a country for nothing, also couldn't see through this point, so there were two drug wars, and there was a hasty Xishou—not so much Xishou, but a group of bereaved dogs fleeing westward More appropriate.

Luckily, fortunately, Liu Laogou actually saw through this truth, and fortunately, Liu Laogou was able to take out money by himself after seeing through this truth.

It was Emperor Zhu who shook his head with a smile, and said: "Even if all the countries on the entire small broken ball unite to attack our Ming Dynasty, it doesn't mean that it will cost 30 billion dragon yuan."

However, to Emperor Zhu's surprise, Liu Huaiwen did not show much joy when he heard that Emperor Zhu said that it was not necessary to spend 30 billion dragon yuan. The military expenditure of 30 million dragon yuan, but the minister has to prepare 30 billion dragon yuan of military expenditure - it can be too much to use up, but it must not be insufficient."

Emperor Zhu smiled and said nothing more.

From Emperor Zhu's point of view, even if the entire Xiaopoqiu was fully developed, Daming may not need to spend 30 billion dragon dollars in military expenditures. After all, Xiaopoguo has never been a piece of iron barrels, and even Europa itself is not a piece of iron barrels. .

For example, between France and England, between the Bourbon family and the Habsburg family, between Ottoman and Tsarist Russia, between a mustache art student and an old Polish cousin.

All kinds of grievances and grievances made the whole of Europa barely able to maintain the superficial stability. It was better when these countries planned to attack Ming Dynasty together, but as long as Daming sent someone to provoke them, these countries would We have to fight each other.

However, this is only the perspective of Emperor Zhu's view of the problem.

If it were Liu Huaiwen, the Household Minister who was in charge of the Ming treasury, what he had to consider was not how to instigate Ouyi and other barbarians to fight each other, nor did he need to consider whether Daming's army was defending or attacking. The army is ready to spend more than enough.

After thinking about it, Emperor Zhu still looked at Liu Heming and asked, "What do you plan to do with the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies?"

Liu Heming bowed and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I think it is better to take the initiative to attack than passively defend."

Emperor Zhu snorted, first ordered Zhang Dequan to prepare the map of Xiaopoqiu, then looked at Liu Heming and said, "Tell me?"

Liu Heming bowed again, and then walked to the side of the map to make gestures: "My first plan is to use those dwarfs in Tianzhu to abolish the English East India Company."

Emperor Zhu naturally would not object to Liu Heming's plan.

Speaking of which, it was a coincidence that Alexander, the unlucky boy, picked the time - the English East India Company is still in Tianzhu and is just about to transfer to Sri Lanka, and the dwarfs from the Japanese country happen to be in Tianzhu.

In terms of equipment, the equipment in the hands of the Japanese dwarfs is no worse than the equipment in the hands of the English East India Company. After all, it is the standard ordnance eliminated by the Ming army, and it is not inferior to the equipment in the hands of the regular English army.

In terms of combat effectiveness, those Japanese dwarfs are no worse than the English regular army, let alone the private soldiers recruited by the English East India Company to fight on the front line purely for money. The two are not at the same level at all. .

Especially after the relentless brainwashing of two psychopaths, Tojo Kojiro and Yamamoto 28, those Japanese dwarfs in Tianzhu have already fallen into a state of fanaticism similar to fanatics. As long as someone shouts "For the Ming Emperor Your Majesty", those dwarfs would shout "on board", and then charge forward without risking their lives.

That is to say, as long as enough ammunition and supplies are prepared for the Japanese dwarfs in Tianzhu, they can press the English East India Company to the ground and rub it however they want.

After nodding his head, Emperor Zhu asked with a smile, "What about the Dutch East India Company?"

Liu Heming bowed and said, "I didn't intend to let those dwarfs attack the Dutch East India Company. On the contrary, I planned to send people to win over the Dutch East India Company."

Seeing Emperor Zhu looking at him meaningfully, Liu Heming also knew that Emperor Zhu was testing his ability, so he went on to say: "As far as I know, there was a war between England and the Netherlands. The cause was that England accused The Netherlands supports the Kleptocrat's secession from England."

"This war started from Qian Deaf's 45th year to Qian Deaf's 49th year. It took four years before and after. It happened to be this war that led to the complete decline and even subjugation of the Netherlands. London, and the Dutch East India Company nearly went bankrupt."

"Although George III later got quite close to William I of the Netherlands, and even took William I, who was Prince of Orange at that time, into exile in England, the hatred between the two parties was not so easy to erase."

"Now that the Netherlands has been restored with the support of our Ming Dynasty and France, naturally there is no need to look at England's face. On the contrary, the Netherlands is far away from England and very close to France. William I must look at Louis. Sixteen's face acts, and Louis XVI..."

As we all know, Louis XVI is now the number one celebrity on the Europa continent, and he is proud of "France is the Xiao Ming country on the Europa continent" all day long.

In addition, the interests of France are firmly tied to Ming Dynasty, and France is not less prone to suck blood from the countries of Europe, so even if George III and Alexander can really encourage all the countries of Europe to attack Ming Dynasty, Louis X It is absolutely impossible for Liu to get involved with them.

Thinking of this, Emperor Zhu simply smiled, and then ordered Liu Heming: "Continue talking."

Liu Heming went on to say: "The second step of the minister's plan is to go directly to the Big Island, which is New South Wales in the population of England."

Hearing this, Emperor Zhu didn't say anything, but Liu Huaiwen couldn't sit still: "New South Wales is isolated overseas. It neither borders Tianzhu, Ottoman, nor West Kunlun, Europa and other places. New South Wales There aren't too many barbarians in South Wales, so what's the use of conquering New South Wales?"

As he spoke, the look on Liu Huaiwen's face gradually became vigilant: "Could it be that you see that the national treasury has spent more military expenditures this time, so you plan to take the opportunity to fight more battles and grab some more land by the way?"

Liu Heming shook his head with a smile, and said, "Of course I know that New South Wales does not border the places that Uncle Huaiwen just mentioned, but Uncle Huaiwen might as well take a closer look at the map—as long as you take New South Wales, Tianzhu, Old Port, Lanfang, and New South Wales can be connected in one line, and those barbarians will no longer be able to attack our Ming Dynasty by sea."

"Combined with our Ming Dynasty's military bases in Europa and West Kunlun, those barbarians can only hide in the land of Europa."

"Since then, our Daming can advance and attack, retreat and defend, and there is no danger at sea."

After roughly explaining, Liu Heming went on to report his plan to Emperor Zhu: "The third step of my plan is to support France in taking Spain."

"The land of Spain is not a particularly important place for our Ming Dynasty, but it is very different for France."

"First of all, France under the leadership of Louis XVI has completed the expansion of its territory. This will greatly encourage France to continue to move closer to our Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, it can be a baby for those barbarians to see."

"Secondly, France's coastal defense line will be further expanded—as long as the defense line is long enough, the cost of coastal defense for France will be higher, and France will be more inseparable from our Daming."

Emperor Zhu hummed, and then stretched out his hand to draw on the map: "What about the stupid hawk? The barbarians in Europa are not too far away from the stupid hawk, and King Qin and King Jin are in Yindi'an Continent. Are they going to deal with it?" The Silly Eagle launched an attack?"

Liu Heming shook his head, and replied: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I think that His Majesty the King of Qin and the King of Jin don't need to do anything to the foolish eagle at all."

"According to the current situation, His Royal Highness King Qin is in the south, and His Royal Highness King Jin is in the north. They have already firmly restrained the Silly Eagle and the Maple Leaf Kingdom belonging to England. Moreover, His Royal Highness Jin's fief is very close to our Daming, so supplies are also convenient. If you want to do something, you can do it at any time, but if you don’t do it, you can force the Maple Leaf country in England to increase its troops to prepare for war, and drag down the Maple Leaf country.”

"Although King Qin's side is not too close to our Daming, and it's not very convenient to get supplies, but it's still no problem to restrain the Silly Eagle, and it can also force the Silly Eagle to increase its troops to prepare for war."

Speaking of this, Liu Heming couldn't help laughing: "The sea route to our Ming Dynasty was cut off, Sand Goose and all the countries that England could win over were trapped in Europa, and the Silly Eagle and the British Maple Leaf Kingdom were restrained. The dwarfs belonging to the East India Company can boldly attack the Ottomans."

"If Louis XVI is willing to cooperate, I am confident that the whole of Europa can be flattened within three or even two years, and then the Silly Jaeger and Sand Goose can be killed in another year."

Hearing this, Emperor Zhu couldn't help laughing.

Liu Heming's plan is indeed very reliable. If it can be carried out, I'm afraid it will really allow him to calm down the whole small broken ball within five years.

The key is that this way of playing really saves money, not to mention the military expenditure of 30 billion dragon yuan, maybe even [-] million dragon yuan of military expenditure-don't forget, the main force in Liu Heming's plan is those short-haired people from Japan, and The lives of dwarves are not very valuable.

At the very least, it would be much cheaper than dispatching Ming's army directly.

For example, if a Ming soldier died in battle, the Dudufu of the Five Armies would pay a funeral fee of 100 yuan, which is [-] taels of silver. There are a lot of problems, and there will be a lot of money to be spent in the follow-up.

But it would be different if it was replaced by those dwarfs from the Wa Kingdom.

As for the dwarf, if he dies, he will die. In the worst case, he will allocate some silver to the Edo shogunate. If he dies, it will not exceed 20 taels—twelve taels of which are given to the family of the dwarf, and the remaining [-] taels are given to the shogunate. , or to encourage the shogunate to recruit more dwarf ronin samurai.

Therefore, this set of gameplay is really saving money!
As for the fact that Ming's army does not fight all year round, will its combat effectiveness decline...

This concern is purely superfluous.

The army of Ming Dynasty has never said that the horses are released to the south of the mountain, and the swords and guns are stored in the warehouse. In addition to the usual strict training, they have to be pulled out from time to time to exterminate pirates or recruit laborers. They have a lot of actual combat experience.

More importantly, who can refuse the temptation of the words Guangzu Yaozu?

Ask yourself, anyway, Emperor Zhu felt that he couldn't refuse.
