Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 957 Let Them Go
Finally, after the countries communicated with each other, they discussed holding a meeting of countries in Paris, France, to discuss matters related to the Ming Dynasty.

This news was known to Tsar Alexei. To be honest, Tsarist Russia was also badly harmed by the Ming army. If possible, he would not mind participating in the Paris Conference.

However, they didn't invite him at all!

There was no need to say anything, Alexei sent an envoy backhand and immediately rushed to report to the Ming Dynasty officials in Samara Fort.

Of course he couldn't go in person, but sent an envoy.

"Dear Governor, something is wrong!" The Tsarist Russian envoy hurriedly reported in an exaggerated tone when he saw Hong Chengchou, "My country has found out that under the leadership of Britain, Spain and the Netherlands, they are going to hold a meeting in Paris, France. Let's discuss how to deal with Daming!"

This Tsarist Russian envoy is not all exaggeration. After all, if the European countries really unite, then this strength will definitely be very powerful!

Hong Chengchou heard this, but he was not surprised at all. After all, Emperor Chongzhen had already explained to him about the future situation.Even if the European countries have not yet united, after Ming defeated Ottoman, the European countries will definitely unite.

Therefore, after listening to it at this time, he just said lightly: "This officer already knows about this matter, what else is there?"

"..." The Russian envoy was a little stunned when he heard this. He was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses. He thought that Hong Chengchou had not heard clearly, so he reported again, "Your Majesty, the Governor-General is from all European countries, including Spain, France, and the United Kingdom. , Sweden, etc., all countries went to Paris for a meeting to discuss how to deal with the Ming Dynasty. This matter is very serious! His Highness was worried about the Ming Dynasty, so he quickly sent a villain to report the news. "

Tsarist Russia was already a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty and could no longer claim the title of emperor.Therefore, they are still the tsar at home, but when they come to the Ming Dynasty, they can only become the king.

After hearing this, Hong Chengchou knew what the Russian envoy meant, and immediately replied calmly: "They want to be enemies of the Ming Dynasty, so just come!"

"Your Excellency, all European countries?"

"I'm not deaf, so you don't need to stress it again!" Hong Chengchou said impatiently, "Perhaps in your opinion, the whole of Europe is very powerful when united. But, for me, the Ming Dynasty, haha..."

With a sneer, he waved his hand and said, "Go back and tell your king that sooner or later Daming will have a war with the European countries, and let him be prepared. If he goes back to war, he will also contribute."

The envoys of Tsarist Russia felt a little helpless when they heard this. Ming's reaction was beyond their expectations.With no other choice, he had no choice but to repay Moscow in this way.

As soon as he left, Hong Chengchou thought for a while, and then sent someone to inform Lu Xiangsheng.If the European countries really want to use troops against Ming Dynasty, it should be Lu Xiangsheng who bears the brunt.

However, he could tell with his toes that it would not be easy for European countries to unite.Interests are related, and there are definitely a lot of wrangling things.As far as Mingwei Fort is concerned, the best strategy is to stop with silence and watch the changes.

Opening up the railway line with Luntai as soon as possible is the most important thing for Mingwei Fort.

........................

When Tsar Alexei received the news that the envoy had returned to report, he was immediately dumbfounded.

It is true that the Ming Dynasty was powerful. According to his estimation, no country in Europe could directly resist the Ming army's attack.However, if all European countries unite, it will definitely be very powerful, and the Ming country is so far away from their capital. How many chances can the Ming army have in such a war?

Thinking of this, Alexei couldn't help but change his mind: If Governor Hong despised the news he passed on, could it be that the Ming army has been winning battles all the time, so they became arrogant?Just think that Europe is a weak country, not an opponent of the Ming army, so it doesn't matter?

If this is really the case, then the Ming army will undoubtedly be defeated if a war is really necessary later on.And the Ming army must also send troops to help, which means that he has to be dragged down by the Ming army and lose the battle?

Thinking of this, Alexei was of course not reconciled.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but close the door and start cursing.

I really don’t know what he means when he scolds European countries. Why should he be excluded from the meeting?

After a while, he scolded the Ming Dynasty for being a frog in a well. Do you think Europe is so easy to bully?If we turn around and start a fight, Tsarist Russia will definitely be implicated!

After scolding for a while, it can't change the fact that Tsarist Russia is now a supporting role.Alexei was a bit decadent. After sitting stupidly for a long time, he had no choice but to take a step and watch the situation first, and then talk about it!
Regarding the Paris Conference, it is naturally impossible that only Tsarist Russia heard the news, including other small countries and tribes that surrendered to Ming Dynasty, and so on.For those natives in Eastern Europe or Central Asia, of course they know how powerful the European countries are now.

Basically, the actions they took were the same as those of Tsarist Russia.First they sent someone to report to Daming, and then they wanted to see the situation, and turned back to stand on the winning side. Anyway, they didn't want to be buried with the loser.

........................

On the Persian side, Lu Xiangsheng has been carrying out the will of Emperor Chongzhen before he left. In addition to sending troops to station in Bitlis, a major traffic town, he also sent cavalry from time to time to scare the Ottomans. However, his real energy was in Persia. province.

Focus on supervising the restoration of people's livelihood in various places, especially the resumption of work and production in the fields, to minimize the impact of the previous series of wars.

In addition, he did not relax the spread of Chinese culture. He will solve the opening of schools in various places, difficulties encountered, etc. in the first place.

It even held the first scholar examination in Persia Province, which is the county examination, government examination and hospital examination. Those who pass the county examination and government examination are Tongsheng, and those who pass the hospital examination are scholars.

However, the Persian Province is a new establishment, so you can imagine what will happen in this first exam!Therefore, Lu Xiangsheng not only lowered his requirements, but also tested the content of new learning and craftsmanship based on the situation of the Ming Dynasty.

The Four Books and Five Classics, as long as you can speak a little bit, you will pass the test.And the content of new learning and artisan learning must attract Lu Xiangsheng.

In this first examination, Tong Sheng was qualified to work in local government offices; and those who could become scholars in the end, Lu Xiangsheng was recruited to Zhennan City to commend them personally, and gave them travel expenses, and sent them to the mainland of Daming with the fleet of Daming to and from Persia Education at public expense.

But there is a condition, that is, they must return to Persia after learning.

The purpose of doing this is to win the hearts and minds of the Persian people, give them a sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty, and unite their hearts.

However, what left Lu Xiangsheng a little speechless was that many of the scholars in this first class were actually natives of the Ming Dynasty and came to Persia with the army to settle down, or simply soldiers who were injured during the expedition and retired from the army, choosing to marry multiple wives in Persia.

By doing so, it is tantamount to returning home to visit relatives at public expense.

In this regard, although it is not in line with the original intention, Lu Xiangsheng does not want to change.No matter what, they are all from Daming, so there is no need to favor one over another!After a few years, among the Persian citizens of Ming Dynasty, intelligent people will naturally rise up.

As long as such a path is opened for them, it will eventually guide them to learn the cultural customs of the Ming Dynasty with their heart and truly integrate into the Ming Dynasty.

As for the present, it is only natural that those from the Ming Dynasty should be superior to others.

While Lu Xiangsheng was busy with this matter, he received news from various sources that the Europeans wanted to unite.Among them, some from the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty came to inform, and some from Hong Chengchou sent people to inform.

Just like Hong Chengchou, Lu Xiangsheng was also mentioned by Emperor Chongzhen.So he wasn't worried.When all the European countries are united, if they really want to send troops, they don't know how many years it will take, and they can do whatever they want.

In this way, besides continuing to pay attention to people's livelihood, Lu Xiangsheng only sent someone to inform Xia Yan Yingyuan.

At this time, Yan Yingyuan's troops had already penetrated Iraq and Syria in later generations, and had gone to the Mediterranean to drink horses.

However, due to the limited force, in the end, only a small number of rangers were left on the Syrian side as a vigilance, and the army returned to Baghdad to guard the Ottoman captives to open up wasteland and farm on this plain.

On the western side of the Arabian peninsula, where the terrain is much higher, the fields are not as productive.Therefore, Yan Yingyuan didn't care about that side, and mainly operated the part of the plain from the plain where Baghdad is located to the coast of the Persian Gulf.

As far as the current Ming army is concerned, it is basically in a state of recuperation. In order to gain a foothold in this land, it also saves food and grass for the subsequent war.

The previously aggressive Bing Feng restrained himself for the time being, inserted the precious sword into the scabbard, and waited for the next time it was unsheathed to drink blood!

........................

The situation on the side of the Ming army made the Ottoman Empire breathe a sigh of relief.This is how they rated it.

Ottoman Prime Minister Ahmed told the Empress Dowager: "Empress Dowager, the strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the wilderness has received miraculous results. The Ming army was forced by logistics and was no longer able to go west. According to the report of Tanma, most of the Ming army is opening up wasteland and farming to deal with it. Food crisis!"

I don’t know how many complaints have been drawn from the strong implementation of the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness before. I don’t know how many Ottoman people who were forced to leave their hometowns died on the road.All these things put a lot of pressure on Ahmed.Even the empress dowager was under pressure.

Therefore, now that the Ming army is "powerless" to advance westward, insisting that the strategy of strengthening the wall and clearing the country has succeeded, it can reduce their pressure.

The empress dowager nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and then asked a little worriedly: "What will we do after that? When the Ming army has food and grass, won't they come to attack us Ottomans again?"

"Don't worry, Queen Mother!" Ahmed replied quickly after hearing this, "Wei Chen will definitely seize the time to train troops and train an elite team. Don't say that the army will come to attack our Ottoman Empire. Even if we don't come, Weichen The minister will also lead the army to take revenge!"
