Wild North America 1846

Chapter 457

At the beginning of September 1865, the Great Court Meeting was unprecedentedly grand. Envoys from Fusang Kingdom and Lanfang Kingdom sent Tang envoys to present tribute forms to pay homage to His Majesty the Tang Emperor.

The influence of the Tang Empire in the Pacific region has further expanded, and the Fusang Kingdom and the Ryukyu Kingdom around the mainland China have been included as vassals. The influence of the Western Pacific region has skyrocketed, and combined with the royal family’s exclusive territory Paradise Island and northern Alaska, Midway Island and Hawaii Island, The entire Pacific Ocean is like an inner lake, which is free to come and go.

And this

This aroused the deep fear of the British Empire, which traversed the world's oceans, and its East Asia policy changed accordingly.

The British who originally supported the shogunate turned to support the powerful clans in the southwest who strongly demanded social innovation and respected the emperor, especially the Satsuma, Choshu, and Hizen clans, forming a powerful local force capable of resisting the shogunate rule.

The largest and most important colony is the Kingdom of the Netherlands, located in the East Indies. It can clearly feel the threat of the Tang Empire. It conforms to the attitude of the United Kingdom and turns to support the Southwest Power. The shogunate contended.

However, the French and the British could not urinate in the same pot, and chose to stand in the unified camp of the Tang Empire to support the shogunate, which is exactly the same as in the original history.

Although Fusang Kingdom regards the Tang Empire as the country of heaven, as an independent country, the humiliating treaty signed after it was opened by European and American powers is still valid, and the status of a semi-colonial and semi-feudal country has not changed.

What the Fusang Kingdom can get from the Datang Empire are loans and material support, including appointing military officers for training, accepting students from the Fusang Kingdom, and the treatment of the people of the Fusang Kingdom who are discriminated against in the Datang Empire has improved slightly.

The remaining two princes are the second and third heirs to the throne respectively. Empress Lin's position is extremely firm, ruling the east and west palaces, and there is no bloody plot of a favorite concubine competing for the throne.

He thought about it, and then said;
"The Fusang Kingdom has been stable for a few months after the tribute, and the southwestern feudal clans jumped out impatiently. It seems that there is full support from Britain and the Netherlands behind them. The intentions are not good!"

A few words and a few words set the rules for handling this urgent matter, and Emperor Li Cha waved Liang Bojun to step down, and just follow the sacred instructions.

"Wow..." The huge colorful tiger "Red Zhong" suddenly let out a threatening growl, which caught Li Cha's attention.

"Your Majesty, how can my concubine He De dare to take this praise?" Empress Lin's beautiful eyes moved by these words were covered with mist.

Daming Palace

Calculate time
It was time for chaos in the Fusang Kingdom. The Fall of the Curtain Movement was followed by the "Boshin War". The reformers who respected the emperor's "royal restoration" fought with the shogunate army for two or three years, and the war spread all over the Fusang Islands.

"It's activated so quickly, you don't have any patience at all!" Li Cha chuckled lightly when he heard this, and sat on the soft couch with a relaxed expression, showing no sign of being in a hurry.

"Excuse me, I'm not guilty, what's the matter?"

The succession system of the Tang Empire was clear, and with so many veterans in the House of Nobles staring at it, the children of the imperial concubine and concubine had no chance to compete for the great treasure, so they naturally put out their thoughts.

Originally, the strength of the shogunate army in history became weaker and weaker. With the help of the Tang Empire, it is very likely to turn against the wind and win the civil war.

Climbing up to the thick legs of the Tang Empire, the Governor's Office of the Dutch East Indies, which had been eyeing Lanfang Kingdom, had to restrain itself, lest it would be difficult for the Tang Empire to find it and get out of hand.

The blue waves beside the Taiye Pool are vast, and the lush exotic flowers and plants are all covered with a layer of snow. The queen and a group of beautiful concubines are wearing mink fur capes, holding mink fur warmers in their hands, and inside are The gold-plated cloud silk charcoal stove is too beautiful to behold.

"Auspicious snow heralds a good year!" Emperor Li Cha said with emotion.

By the way, a batch of old grains in the reserve will be processed for them, temporarily limited to 1.2 tons, and the stock will be set aside to store new grains.

Dozens of banquet tables have been arranged in Nuan Dian, and the hot pot is the main one of course. There are all kinds of seafood hot pots, beef and mutton hot pots, and the masters can order whatever they want.

Empress Lin's body is also a bit blessed, she is fat and very rich, and said with a smile when she saw this; "It's rare to go out to relax in the garden. Your Majesty still cares about the general public in his heart. Thinking that I, the sage of the Tang Empire, is really cultivating and cultivating." What a blessing not to come!"

"That's right, says the European proverb; where a Brit walks in a pond, even the fish will fight.

He looked over, and it turned out that Liang Bojun, the newly transferred deputy director of the Royal Secretariat, was standing far away on the side of the Nuan Dian with a memorial in his hand, with a fearful expression on his face, and he dared not come over.

Emperor Li Cha and Empress Lin have always had a close relationship. They have three sons and a daughter. Prince Qin and Duke of California. Crown Prince Tang-Li Gan is 17 years old this year. He used to supervise the country during His Majesty's visit to Europe.

Of course, Emperor Li Cha couldn't just watch these thieves wreak havoc. He had to help the shogunate army, which represented the decadent and backward feudal forces, to fight the war. How could it take two or three years?

There are also old muskets and Napoleon cannons in the warehouse. They are left in a pile of tatters after a long time, and a batch is transferred to the Fusang army in the name of a loan to support them in suppressing the rebellion.

The millennium rule on the island of Honshu and the land of Ezo are more important. I believe that Tokugawa Yoshiki should be able to distinguish clearly?

As long as there is money and food, the Fusang Kingdom has no shortage of cannon fodder. How could the shogunate rule the archipelago for thousands of years without any means?
Those towns in the southwest with back bones can't get up, let them fight first, and they will wake up when they die too much. "

Li Cha nodded with a carefree expression on his face and said;

Thus

Late 12 month

Satsuma, Tosa, Hizen, and Changzhou and other powerful vassals in the Southwest took the opportunity to hold high the banner of "returning the government" and gathered soldiers to rebel, and many local vassals responded.

All these years

It takes at least 5 years to start, and you must win in the end, because that is in the true interests of the Datang Empire.

On the second day after the snow stopped, the people in the city went out of the city with their families to enjoy the snow scenery, but the roads out of the city were blocked by all kinds of vehicles and horses.

"I said you deserve it, so you deserve it." Li Cha made a decisive decision with one word.

Li Cha didn't need to care about these trivial matters. He walked into the hall on one side, followed by the newly transferred deputy director, Liang Bojun. After entering the store, he bowed deeply and reported loudly;

However, the matter in Fusang Kingdom is an internal rebellion after all. It is not appropriate for the empire to intervene directly. It should mainly provide material assistance and military training, and some loan assistance can be added as appropriate.

Time is like water quietly, and it is the end of the year again in a flash.

"That's because I have a good helper who has worked hard for the Queen all these years and kept the backyard of the palace in order." Li Cha turned around with a smile, reached out and brushed a withered hair from Queen Lin's hair. Ye, said in a warm voice; "What I said is true, the Tang Empire is now prosperous and prosperous, and the empress owes a lot to it!"

The northern colony of British Canada has two new self-governments, Canada and Yukon (formed from the amalgamation of Yukon Territory and British Columbia).

When it comes to fanning the flames, the people in London can be said to be very familiar with it.

"So good."

"His Majesty, the Security Bureau has recently discovered that more than a dozen British and Dutch ships have entered the southwestern port. In addition to carrying ammunition and ammunition, there are also a large amount of food, cloth and other materials, which should be related to this matter." Liang Bojun replied in a low voice. road.

"Don't make trouble in the red, and the rest of you should be more stable." Li Cha casually reprimanded a few beasts that were eager to try, and then said to Queen Lin; "It's windy by the lake, so it's not suitable to stay for a long time, the queen will wait for a while , then take them to the warm palace to rest, don't be frozen by the cold wind."

The Tang Empire can give money and food to help the shogunate win the war. After the shogunate is burdened with heavy debts, it can also kindly help reduce the debt, as long as it sells the land of Yezo to the Datang Empire.

I dare not be negligent, please Your Majesty forgive me! "

"Your Majesty, go on your own, and the concubine will wait in the Nuan Palace."

in the original history
At the end of the war, when the forces of the reformers became stronger and stronger, the shogunate army was retreated steadily. In the end, General Yoshiki Tokugawa had to retire and admit defeat. Colonial prosperity changed.

The palace scenery surrounded by mountains and rivers is enchanting after the snow. Emperor Li Cha took the queen and concubines on snow to enjoy the scenery with great interest. Dozens of ferocious pet animals carried young princes and princesses on their backs. Some accompanied them to fight, creating a joyful royal atmosphere.

The stage in Nuan Dian is also well prepared, ready to start the performance at any time.

On the contrary, the situation in Lanfang Country has improved greatly. Some large enterprises such as Pacific Shipping Company have invested in wharves and storage facilities in the country, and plan to establish a transshipment port for the Nanyang route to further consolidate and expand the share of industry trade.

Now, since the Fusang Kingdom pays tribute to the Tang Empire, it is the main one.

The Great Tang Empire helped the younger brother win the civil war, quelled the rebellion, and obtained a piece of territory in the northern part of the Fusang Islands. They could also give a sum of money to the shogunate to reform the evils and revive the government. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

"It was an urgent report from the envoy of the Fusang Kingdom; with the support of the British, the Southwestern Powers brazenly launched a rebellion. Because of the "Rice Riot", the people of Edo Town smashed houses, robbed the police and soldiers of knives and guns, and quickly spread to all major cities in Fusang. City.

Looking back at a large group of princes and princesses fighting with the pet beasts, Li Cha was very pleased by the joyful royal atmosphere, and his mood became very cheerful.

Chang'an, the imperial capital, ushered in the first snowfall since the beginning of winter. The snow wasn't heavy, but it aroused great interest from the people of Chang'an City, because it hadn't snowed in Chang'an City for 7 years.

"My minister dared to trespass on the imperial forbidden palace, and violated your Majesty's Yaxing Garden, which is a crime worthy of death. Please forgive me."

Of course, this kind of help must be given at the most difficult time, otherwise how can we take advantage of it?
Among them, I believe that the imperial government can grasp it well.

1.2 tons of grain is not enough at one time, 1000 tons or 2000 tons can be transported slowly, half a year or a year is enough, anyway, the shogunate is not the Tang Empire, but the urgency.

This small episode did not affect the mood of Emperor Li Cha and the harem concubines enjoying the snow and watching the play. In this rare parent-child moment, he showed the warmth of his father besides the majesty of the emperor.

The joyful and harmonious royal garden activities created a warm atmosphere of fatherly kindness and filial piety, which became an unforgettable and precious memory.
