1890 King of Southeast Asia

On October 3rd, outside Machen Port, Liu Haoran and his party took the cruise ship and slowly rely on Hong Kong.

Dudu ~~

"We are back!" Liu Haoran looked at the land excitedly, which was the taste of the family.

After leaving home for a few months, Liu Haoran has strongly, and his skin tone has become a bronze -he is training with the Navy.

"Come back!" Liu Xinran also held his hands up and cheered at the shore.

For a few months of wandering, they all thought of home, especially when driving on the vast sea of ​​sea.

Bang!

Just when the cruise ship was on the shore, the ceremony was sent together to welcome their return.

This travel is nominally a visit to the world of South China and the princess, which is actually a diplomatic meeting.

All countries can also see that after all, there is a diplomatic minister on the ship. No country will use the Foreign Minister as a sailor.

"Father Emperor, Mother." Liu Haoran got out of the boat and saluted Liu Yiming respectfully.

"Seeing the father and the mother." Liu Xinran originally wanted to rush up to embrace her mother, and couldn't help but give Liu Haoran a white eyes.

"Loss, what did you learn about this trip?" Zhang Pan pursed his lips and looked at Liu Haoran who was "dark".

Liu Haoran was just a bronze skin, but there was a fair Liu Xinran beside him in comparison and immediately seemed dark.

"It should be unclear for a while and a half, so, you go back and write a summary ..." Liu Yiming saw Liu Haoran hesitated, thinking that Liu Haoran didn't know where to start, "good intention" gave his son a step, but he was Zhang Yu. Create it.

"Let's go first, and your father and emperor still have to say to Lord Lin." After the creation, Zhang Pan took two small as a small.

Liu Yiming shrugged and looked at Liu Anmin behind his father and behind him.

"How? I want to write a summary for you?" Father Liu said angrily.

Nympho

After finally setting up Liu Yiming, Liu Yiming and Lin Anmin got on Liu Yiming's special car.

"Is it smooth along the way?" Liu Yiming took out two bottles of iced beer from under the seat and handed it to Lin Anmin.

"Back to Her Majesty, in general, this trip is smooth, British and French attitude is not bad. The Germans are still relatively contradictory. In Portugal, the Netherlands, France, and South America, they have won a certain gain." Lin Anmin received beer Essence

"The contradiction between the Germans is that they can't see themselves. On the one hand, the continuous victory and the rapid development of the country have caused the national self -esteem to expand, and the urgent demand for the market needs to bow to South China, which is a French allies. Can't.

On the other hand, Germany strives to carry out colonial activities in East Asia, but we have been resisted by Britain and France. In addition, William II, who looks down on the yellow race, is emotionally unable to accept cooperation with us.

It doesn't matter, just dry this cheap skin. "Liu Yiming took out the beer glass and poured a full cup.

"cheers."

Guru ... Guru ...

"Ha!" Liu Yiming showed an extremely satisfying expression.

"When I was in Argentina, I heard that the trade between Germany and our trade increased rapidly. At that time, some of them didn't understand the German's brain." Lin Anmin also drank a drink, and he converged more than Liu Yiming.

"By the way, I sent Lin Pingzhi to the Qing Empire and responsible for the implementation of the industrialization plan of the Qing Empire. There will be no mobilization in the short term." Liu Yiming nodded.

"I heard, Your Majesty, I want to know the whole picture of this plan." Because of the principle of confidentiality, Lin Anmin's understanding of this plan has only one name.

"Hmm ... I can only tell you a part, this is a top secret."

Liu Yiming said the industrial construction and offensive plan to Lin Anmin, and the latter looked at Liu Yiming in surprise.

"His Majesty intends to do it against the Youth Empire? Also, South China's development speed has been restricted by manpower. It has reached a bottleneck period. Getting more people and resources is the right choice." Lin Anmin asked himself.

"However, is it anxious to do so, and the lion is rabbit, and it also uses full effort. Will we look too arrogant?" Lin Anmin asked again and did not answer this time.

"Be prepared first, can you still expect him to threaten us in the appearance of the Qing Empire government? The biggest obstacle is the distance and traffic situation, so I came up with this method.

The arsenal is close to it, which can solve the problem of logistics; improve the traffic conditions and facilitate the mobilization of military strength; the industrial construction is almost the same. Once the battle is over, it can be uniformly scheduled to form a thorough system.

As for the combat ability of the Qing Empire ... It was not me who said it nonsense. As for the Qing Empire's appearance, he gave him a stable days for several years, and the new army would be abolished. "Liu Yiming said optimistic.

"You have been inspected on the spot in Europe for a while, what do you think of the situation in Europe?" Liu Yiming asked.

"War is just a matter of time." Lin Anmin was thinking about Liu Yiming's words, saying subconsciously.

"The confrontation between countries, especially the confrontation between Britain and France and Germany, has almost been placed on the desktop. The people's attitude towards war is more enthusiastic. Almost everyone thinks that the war is inevitable." Lin Anmin returned to God and explained.

"In your opinion, is the possibility of war in the short term?" Liu Yiming asked.

After all, this is already a different world. Although the existence of South China has not affected the Austro -Hungarian Empire, the British French and German forces in the main countermeasures have been stronger at the same time, and Liu Yiming dare not guarantee whether it will start in advance.

"If there is no accident, the war will not be opened for the time being." Lin Anmin said with a very confirmed tone.

"Why?" Liu Yiming wanted to hear his reasons.

"The British are arguing fiercely on the surface, but they are actually watching. The cordial agreement only resolved the contradictions between Britain and France, and the two sides did not sign a formal military alliance treaty.

This made the French very uneasy. In the Moroccan incident, it was because of this incident that the French decided to compromise temporarily. They were afraid that the British would watch the fire from the other side. There was no trust between Britain and France, and it was unlikely that they would provoke a war."

"Germany is not ready yet. Their navy is not enough to break the blockade of the Royal Navy. The military reform of the Austro-Hungarian Empire has not been completed. If the war starts at this time, the Austro-Hungarian Empire cannot share much pressure.

The Italian army...so from a military point of view, the Germans will not take the initiative to provoke a war for the time being.

After all, time is on the German side. It will only benefit Germany if it drags on." Lin Anmin said leisurely.

Compared with the specific situation at the same time, what Lin Anmin said can be said to be very insightful.

The war was initially started by the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Nicholas II announced the official start of a partial general mobilization. Within a week, France, Russia, Germany, Austria, Serbia and other countries declared war one after another.

The original text comes from Ta \u0026 Read Novels ~\u0026

Britain did not join the war until a few days after Germany invaded Belgium, using the excuse that Germany invaded a neutral country. At this time, the Germans had already taken the lead.

If the Schlieffen Plan did not have enough mobile forces, or if the German General Staff was too rigid and data-oriented, France would have failed.

As for Italy... This country is not good at fighting, but it has always been able to stand on the side. It was not until May of the following year that the two sides fell into a war of attrition, and Italy stood up and joined the Allied side.

As for the United States? The United States just made enough money, and seeing that Germany was not doing well, it came down to brush up its reputation.

As a result, in 1917, the US military, which lacked equipment and training, landed, and then, the US military, wearing British helmets, holding French machine guns and eating American canned food, was brushed by the exhausted German army like a baby brushing experience.

The so-called highlight moment of the US military, with absolute superior firepower and absolutely huge casualties, defeated a group of German troops with weak fighting will and scarce supplies, and then wrote a big book about it.

"The British have always been like this, a troublemaker." Liu Yiming nodded fiercely.

"Your Majesty, I have a question." Lin Anmin said softly.

"Tell me."

"We have signed a cooperation agreement with Portugal and will invest in Portugal in the future. In addition to the Qing Empire industrialization plan, do we have the ability to do so? I mean, the funding issue." Lin Anmin was a little worried.

The cooperation with Portugal is profitable, and it will be effective in the short term after the investment.

After all, mining, how can it be a loss? Have you seen the loss of mining? Except for the kind that didn't work.

The Qing Empire industrialization plan obviously has no benefits in the short term, but it is impossible to give up. This is a long-term strategy.

If the industrialization strategy is completed and the Qing Empire is successfully taken over, then Nanhua will be able to transform itself into the third largest country in terms of territory, the largest country in terms of population, and the largest industrial scale... or the second largest country.

(The UK is the largest, and Tsarist Russia is the second largest, with 22 million square kilometers. At this time, the Qing Empire has nearly 11 million square kilometers. Together with Nanhua, it exceeds 17 million square kilometers, which is much larger than France's 12.89 million.)

With a complete industrial system, even if it is blocked by the West at that time, it can rely on huge domestic demand to develop on its own.

Lin Anmin certainly knows what this represents-the foundation of a world empire.

So Lin Anmin feels a little difficult to choose.

The main thing is whether Nanhua can come up with so much money.

"Don't worry about this. In fact, the people of the Qing Empire have more confidence in us than we have in ourselves. At present, investment in the Qing Empire is basically paid with paper money. Unless it involves importing machinery and equipment from other countries, there is no need to pay real money." Liu Yiming smiled.

This is an unexpected surprise. Originally, I thought that I needed to go to the Qing Empire to lay a large number of bank branches and slowly establish the credit of Nanhua's paper money. Unexpectedly, Nanhua didn't need to do it at all.

"Why...?" Lin Anmin was a little confused.

"Because we can provide goods, a large amount of goods, the goods they need."

Nanhua produces a large number of petrochemical products, medicines, mechanical products, cheap sugar, and cooking oil.

These things are in great demand in the Qing Empire. Merchants in the Qing Empire consciously collect Nanhua banknotes so that they don't have to exchange banknotes in Nanhua and save losses from exchange rate fluctuations.

Maybe sometimes they make money, but if they have time to wait for the exchange rate to fluctuate back, it's better to buy and sell more goods and make more money.

So as soon as Nanhua's investment landed, several money houses came to the door and grabbed the workers and made a mess of it. The workers were also willing to exchange with them, and there was no discount, and it was convenient.

It was...it should have been Nanhua's inflation, and the Qing Empire had to bear it, but fortunately the Qing Empire was large in size, and the impact was not bad. On the contrary, because of the high circulation rate of money, the people's income increased.
