It is said that when a country is about to perish, evildoers will emerge. This evildoer may be a traitor or a sycophant, or a foolish monarch.

For example, the Qing emperor whose neck was buried in loess.

During this period of time, food stamps and the Holy See were being attacked, and the court was full of turmoil. All the ministers were cautious in their words, lest they say something wrong, offend the emperor, and lose their lives.

In the court hall where all horses were silent, a minister came out.

My Majesty, there are Westerners sailing across the sea, transporting opium to our Qing Dynasty, harming the people, plundering money, causing the people of the Qing Dynasty to become impoverished, and the country to become weak. If things go on like this...

Another one who talked about opium.

If in the past, this kind of thing would have been ignored, no one cared about it, and no one asked about it, even many ministers would tacitly suppress it and turn it into a trivial matter.

As for why, just look at the yawns of those ministers.

However, today was different. The ministers who had been silent for many days finally found a vent and came out one after another to report about the opium.

The ministers wanted to divert the emperor's attention, at least divert the emperor's attention from killing the minister.

You can kill anyone, as long as the butcher knife doesn't fall on your neck.

After hearing this, Emperor Qing immediately frowned.

My love, what's the best way to deal with opium?

A minister immediately replied: The inflow of opium is nothing more than the gates of the customs. You only need to close the country, and the slabs are not allowed to enter the sea. If the transportation channels for foreigners are cut off, the opium will be extinct.

Another minister replied: Foreigners' opium to travel across the ocean takes a lot of manpower. If I planted poppies in the Qing Dynasty and produced and sold them myself, the price would be cheaper. Foreigners would have no profit, so I would not continue to traffic opium. And , an opium tax can be set up to enrich the treasury and enrich the national wealth.

The ministers were whimsical, and one idea after another that could be called a powerful and unconstrained style was put forward, and attracted unanimous praise.

The Qing emperor listened to them one by one, pondered carefully, and felt that these wine bags and rice bags had finally done a serious job.

As a result, the Qing emperor followed his advice and announced a series of coquettish operations such as closing the country and vigorously planting poppies.

As for the foreigners in the Qing Dynasty, their property was confiscated and they were expelled from the country on the grounds of colluding with cults. Those who were willing to serve as pawns of foreigners were executed on the spot.

There are a few Western missionaries in the Palace of the Qing Emperor, all of whom are from the Vatican. These missionaries have known the Qing Emperor for decades. Although they have not been able to convert the Qing Emperor, they still have friendship in private.

The Holy See of the South judged the Vatican as a heresy, and the Vatican would naturally not be polite to the Holy See of the South, and spared no effort to discredit it.

Because of these missionaries, the Qing emperor was so afraid of the southern Holy See that they suppressed and eradicated them on a large scale.

Moreover, the orthodox missionaries were full of disgust and disdain for the opium dealers, so they twisted their lips in front of the Qing emperor, saying that the opium dealers were on the same side as the Southern Holy See, and the opium dealers were fined and expelled.

The history is strikingly similar. Even though there is a spoiler like Xi Tong, who makes the history beyond recognition, it still develops along the inherent track.

Like the Opium War.

The reason for the dispute is not so open and aboveboard. The purpose of the Qing government’s prohibition of foreign opium was also to promote domestic products, not really for the health and happiness of the people.

However, its consequences are the same.

The opium dealers who suffered huge losses began to gather ships and manpower. The opium dealers from all over the world gathered more than 300 sailing warships and thousands of cargo ships. After the fleet was assembled, they went north along the coastline and prepared to talk to the Qing Empire.

As in history, their first stop was Huacheng.

The only difference is that they didn't dare to be presumptuous in Huacheng, but landed respectfully and went to the temple to worship the main god of the system, hoping that the main god of the system would bless them to go out smoothly and win a big victory.

Xi Tong: ...

Subsequently, the commander of the fleet asked to see the Pope.

Xi Tong wanted to know the purpose of these opium dealers, so he asked Ye Yiruo to meet them.

Praise the Lord God of the system, praise His Majesty the Pope, your follower Pudingcha, willing to follow your guidance and expand the territory for the bright world.

After saying a few words, Xi Tong gradually understood what Pu Dingcha meant.

This guy wants to pull the Holy See to fight the Qing Empire together. They are in charge of the sea route, and the Holy See is in charge of the land route.

This shit, it's a white wolf with empty gloves.

Pu Dingcha was not embarrassed, and said with a straight chest: Your Majesty, I heard that the barbaric emperors in the north are destroying churches, slaughtering believers, and slandering the great Holy See as heresy and rebellion.

As a child of God, I cannot tolerate such blasphemy. I will take up arms and fight for God. I will use the blood and heads of my enemies to express my devotion to God!

Ye Yiruo also heard the purpose of Pu Dingcha's visit, she didn't know how to answer, so she asked quietly in the chip.

Xi Tong replied: Expel them out!

Xi Tong also wanted to beat Man Qing to the ground, but he did so with his own strength.

What is it to use the power of outsiders?

What's more, with Xi Tong's strength, he still needs to rely on the power of outsiders?

Pu Dingcha didn't even look at which onion he was, and fought on behalf of the main god of the system.

Pu Dingcha left angrily, and the soldiers who went ashore quickly returned to the ship. After the thousands of warships and cargo ships replenished their supplies, they immediately headed north without stopping.

On the other side, Xitong contacted Luo Tianyi.

Open the weather control center in Huacheng.

Soon, a projection screen appeared in front of Xitong, which clearly displayed everything within a hundred miles around Huacheng.

Pudingcha's fleet had just left Huacheng and headed north along the coastline, and it hadn't run ten kilometers yet.

Xi Tong pointed at Pudingcha's fleet.

Destroy them!

Xi Tong knew the next story of this fleet, and Xi Tong would never let this happen. For this reason, he did not hesitate to resort to black technology such as the weather control center.

On the sea, the wind is sunny and the sky is cloudless.

Pu Dingcha wondered where to stop the ship and which city to log in.

He only thought about digging the grave for the Qing Empire, but he didn't realize that he had already reached the grave.

Your Excellency the Supreme Executive, the wind in this area is weak, however, there are many storms brewing around, and after activation, it can generate storms in a local area.

not enough!

I want thousands of ships and none of them spared. To hell with Pottinger and his men!

Sure enough, Pudingcha and his fleet encountered a storm that had never happened in a century. They struggled hard for a long time in the storm, but they still failed to escape the end of annihilation.

Those with good water skills hugged a wooden board and started to swim. If they were lucky, they could touch the boundary of Huacheng. Those who were unlucky fell into the sea and fed the fish.

The first Opium War ended without a problem.
