Borrow the day to change the day

Emperor Chongzhen shook his head and said: "Master Zhong is wrong, I am not worried about this problem."

After finishing speaking, he said to Li Wei: "Your past crimes, I can forgive you, you don't need to worry."

Li Wei was overjoyed when he heard the emperor's golden words and pardoned his guilt face to face, and quickly kowtowed again to thank him.

"You have to answer truthfully, how is the army of the Westerners compared to the Ming army?" Emperor Chongzhen stared at Li Wei and asked.

This stumped Li Wei, the Ming army was notoriously bad.If I told the truth, if the emperor was furious, I'm afraid my head would still be lost.Moreover, from the conversation just now, he vaguely felt that the imperial court seemed to be interested in North America, and if that was the case, he would have his own use.

So, he turned his eyes, and immediately lowered his head to avoid facing the front and replied: "Your Majesty, there are not many Western troops in Mexico City, maybe there are not a thousand of them, and most of those Westerners are ordinary people who can't get along with their own country." .”

"You just said that the natives have established a country?" Emperor Chongzhen continued to ask him, as if he didn't realize the hidden meaning in Li Wei's words.

"According to Caomin's knowledge, the indigenous people in Mexico City have established a nation, but although there are many of them, they are just native chickens and dogs." Li Wei still lowered his head when answering the question.

"Why do you say that?" Emperor Chongzhen asked immediately after hearing this.

The other four people in the hall listened to the two of them asking and answering, but did not answer.Among them, Wang Chengen already understood the identity of this person at this time, and knew why the emperor asked him to lead him in person.

"Your Majesty, Caomin heard that the Westerners dispatched less than 200 people and defeated [-] native troops."

Li Wei's words surprised everyone in the Wenhua Palace. Such a disparity in proportion is really unheard of.

Westerners are by no means demons with magical powers as those foolish men and women think. Everyone present knows this.So in turn, it can only show that the natives are really bad.

Li Wei was afraid that these big men would not believe him, so he quickly added: "Westerners are full of armor, while the weapons used by the aborigines are made of stone, and they fight without any rules, so they will only swarm them. Hit a rock with an egg."

Suddenly, Li Wei thought of something, couldn't help raising his head and added: "The natives have never even seen a horse, and they are terrified when they see people riding horses."

The horses in North America were brought by the Europeans, and they really frightened the Indians who saw the knights for the first time.

When Li Wei raised his head, he found that there were many officials in scarlet robes standing around him looking at him, and in front of him was a young man in a yellow robe staring at him.He was startled, and quickly lowered his head again.

What Li Wei said just now made everyone present breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that the natives are so primitive, which makes it much easier for the vassal king to establish a country in North America, and the only ones to worry about are those Westerners.

They don't know that as long as they are human, they will change.

In the contact with the Westerners, the Indians' force has also been greatly enhanced due to various reasons.In history, armed Indians also massacred many Westerners.

Zhong Jinwei has a better understanding of North America than others, so he first asked an important question: "Have Westerners spread to the west of North America?"

Li Wei thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "There are few Westerners, and they are basically only entrenched near Mexico City now. I don't know if they will expand westward in the future."

After Emperor Chongzhen learned about these situations, his brows were finally no longer furrowed.

At the beginning, he was worried that if the aborigines established a country, they would be as powerful as the barbarians on the prairie. After receiving a reassuring answer, he became worried about the Westerners.

It just so happened that Zhong Jinwei asked the question he was worried about again, but Li Wei's answer also made him feel relieved that the threat from the Westerners was not that great for now.

But Zhong Jinwei turned around and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, this North America is like a delicious pastry, and now Westerners have started to eat it from the east. As time goes by, they will definitely not be satisfied with just a small piece of pastry." .So they're bound to expand westward in the hope of swallowing the whole pastry."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, it was obvious that no one would be satisfied as long as he had the ability.

Several people in the hall were familiar with Zhong Jinwei's speaking style, and knew that he had another suggestion.So all looked at him and listened to him.

"Your Majesty, before the new army is trained and expanded on a large scale, the key to the competition for North America between me, Ming and Westerners, is who will stand first."

Wen Tiren listened on the sidelines, and frowned, is this new army really so strong?

Zhong Jinwei didn't look at Wen Tiren. Seeing Emperor Chongzhen nodded again, he continued: "But for now, the Westerners have seized the opportunity. Therefore, if my Ming Dynasty wants to gain an advantage in North America, the matter of feudal kingship must be carried out as soon as possible. That is, It is said that all resources should be prioritized to meet this matter.”

The people in the hall already knew this, but after Zhong Jinwei said this, their understanding was strengthened.

However, Wen Tiren was a little bit worried. He was afraid that if the court really implemented what Zhongxing Hou said, it might attract some people's opposition.

But Li Wei understood at this time that the imperial court wanted to seal off the vassal king and establish a country in North America.This excited him who had been bullied by Westerners in North America. For him, as long as he was not a fool, he could imagine how big the opportunities contained in this were.

At this time, Zhong Jinwei turned around and asked Li Wei: "If you start from Daming, a large-scale fleet will go to North America. You answer truthfully, will it work?"

As soon as Zhong Jinwei asked this key question, everyone turned their attention to Li Wei again.

Because whether the North American route can now allow a large-scale fleet to go to America, this is the key to the feudal sea North America of the vassal clan.

Zhong Jinwei waited for a while, seeing that Li Wei still bowed his head and did not answer, he was a little worried in his heart, afraid that Li Wei would say no.

I have never heard of people traveling to North America via this route in ancient times. Now it is found that a small number of people can go there, which is progress.But if they go to North America on a large scale, Jinwei will not be sure at this point, after all, this is ancient times.

"Look up and look at me to answer." Zhong Jinwei couldn't help but demanded.

Li Wei had already thought about his explanation at this time, so he obeyed Zhong Jinwei's request, raised his head to look at the young court official, and said cautiously: "My lord, if the Ming Dynasty sends ships to North America on a large scale, it's okay if you want to say it." , if you say no, you can’t. Please allow Caomin to talk about the situation on this route first.”

Zhong Jinwei nodded, and said to Li Wei: "Okay, let's listen first."

Seeing Zhong Jinwei looking at him, Li Wei seemed to have a kind of encouragement, and his heart was more stable, and he immediately began to narrate in an orderly manner.
