Occupy a country in 30 days?
is it possible?
If we follow the traditional war fighting style, this is almost impossible. However, in the past few decades, whether it is the "surprise attack on Santiago" or the surprise attack on Peru, Ming Dynasty has long used surprise attacks again and again to tell the world - this
Not only is it possible, it's also realistic.
As long as you are brave enough, the rewards will definitely be big enough.
The Ming Empire was like Pizarro who stormed into the Inca capital and kidnapped the king. They used their surprise attacks again and again to impress the whole world.
Watch... learn, and only demonstrate once.
Well, Jensen admitted that he had seen it and was studying hard. He was born in the military. Before he was 28 years old, he was an officer in the Royal Army. A few years ago, he entered this company, like many people.
, he desires wealth and success, but as a soldier, he does not know how to do business like others. But unlike ordinary businessmen, he is good at fighting.
Over the past few years, after witnessing the Transvaal government's extortionate taxes and the company's complaints against them, Jensen knew his chance had come.
Now, the facts prove it.
Mr. Rhodes agreed to his plan. What does this mean?
Just like that, he lay on the bed and smoked a few more cigarettes, eager to know when Mr. Rhodes was going to implement the plan.
Until 1 o'clock in the morning, Jason did not fall asleep. Finally, he sat up from the bed with Yue and poured himself a glass of brandy. Then he turned to the price and timetable in the report, which were typed on separate pages.
on paper.
The appendix reads:
The salary of the commander who carried out the plan was £10,000.
The cost of hiring 1,500 mercenaries and their salaries is £50,000
Purchase weapons for £50,000
Purchase a boat for £50,000
…
Total £200,000
The second page is the time estimate table:
Preparation phase: Recruiting and organizing personnel (mining company police and black mercenaries) for 25 days
Purchase phase: Purchase all supplies. 15 days
Organization stage: organize weapons and personnel to go north, until the day of action. 5 days
Jason read the report twice. He kept smoking his pipe for a long time and stared at the map in front of him. He knew that his life and his future were all on this plan. As long as the plan was successfully implemented,
He will become the hero of the entire company, and even the entire Cape Colony!
Finally, he locked the report in the drawer and lay down on the bed again.
…
Just as the situation in southern Africa was accelerating according to Emperor Zhu Da's wishes, Emperor Zhu Da had already boarded the airship bound for Paris. The flight from China to Paris was the longest route in the world - almost.
Six years ago, the Ming Empire Airlines opened the first route between Zhongdu and Paris. Although in the past few years, many airship commercial routes have been opened in the Ming Dynasty and in Europe, but close to one
With a route of 10,000 kilometers, it is indeed the longest in the world.
The entire voyage takes up to eighty or ninety hours...
Even Emperor Zhu Da's royal airship couldn't get there quickly, but compared to the past, it was indeed much faster.
The noise in the airship is very loud, but you can get used to it. Emperor Zhu Da, who is sitting on the airship, occasionally looks out the window.
Through the portholes, you can clearly see the dividing line between the sea and the land. The green area on the coast is the mangrove swamps on the coast. The coastline in the northern part of the empire is full of mangrove swamps.
Soon, the airship will sail over the empire, enter the Atlantic Ocean, then Guinea, and finally Paris... In more than eighty hours, we will almost be able to see Eugenie.
How long has it been since I last saw her?
"After seeing her, I really don't know how to speak."
While Emperor Zhu Da was thinking silently, a woman's voice sounded beside him.
"Your Majesty, you should know that I haven't been to Paris for a long time."
Maria, the former queen of the French Empire, sat next to him, her head resting gently on his shoulder.
"I don't know if it's right to go back this time or...after all, our child..."
As she spoke, she looked towards her daughter sleeping on the soft chair beside her. She was the daughter of the man next to her. When she looked at her daughter, her eyes were full of love.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything..."
Emperor Zhu Da patted her hand gently. In the past few years, she had been in Daming, not only traveling, but also... giving birth to a child for him.
Is now the time to tell her the news?
After thinking about it, Emperor Zhu Da still did not tell her immediately. After all, this matter was of great importance and he still had to tell him in front of Ou Ren.
The huge airship was slowly flying over the empire.
…
In Paris, when she received the telegram regarding Emperor Zhu Da's visit, Eugenie's calm heart inevitably became a little excited. After all, he was the only man she had ever loved.
Although they have rarely had the chance to get together over the years,... it is precisely because of this that she is so excited. Although the years have passed, the love is still there.
he came!
After learning that his airship had departed, she began to make careful preparations. In addition to ordering people to clean up the rooms in the palace, she also specially put on new clothes designed for her by the designer. Even now,
She remains Europe's fashion godmother.
Looking at her wrinkled face in the mirror, Eugenie couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Why,"
After a long sigh, she pursed her lips, and then something strange flashed across her expression,
"I don't know if she will come with me,"
The woman in Eugenie's mouth was none other than Eugenie's wife Maria. Deep down in her heart, she was jealous of her, not only because she became her lover, but more importantly...she could actually stay by his side all the time.
In fact, if it hadn't been for Ou Ren's death, maybe she would have stayed in Ming Dynasty and stayed with him in the name of traveling like she and Sissi, and maybe she would have been as happy as them.
But many things in this world are always so unsatisfactory. Just when she thought she could stay by his side and stay with him forever, Eugene's death changed everything. She had to return to Paris.
He must help the young Judy securely wear his crown. As for her true love, it is no longer important.
From that day on, she was the Queen Mother of the French Empire, and all she wanted to protect was the French Empire and her son's crown.
