Chapter 158 Pressure? Interference? The Americans smiled.

If it is poor, it means trade protection; if it is strong, it means free trade.

This has been the case since ancient times.

Zhu Daohua is very clear about the development trend of history.

Until the Cold War, each country had its own hegemony.

There are clear barriers between them.

It was after the Northern Giant collapsed.

There was a time when a certain country believed that "history has ended" and thought that it could rule the world for tens of millions of years with its coinage, military hegemony, and cultural hegemony.

So the public opinion machine began to be activated, vigorously promoting "globalization", "free trade" and "zero tariffs".

But they soon found out.

"Okay, let him stop going around asking for alms, and let him come to Yingtian Mansion to see me immediately!"

Zhu Daohua said.

The intensive construction of factories also made these Europeans realize that a new super empire was rising in the East.

That night, the faces of the envoys from various countries who returned to the post became a little solemn.

"So, I think it is in the interests of Britain and Russia to maintain the continued existence of the Qing Empire." George Staunton said.

"Everyone, we are all Europeans," George Staunton said.

"Okay, I can put it another way, we are all believers in God."

But on the issue of law, there are alliances and even alliances.

at the same time.

This was the Ming Emperor's warning to them.

International relations are very complex and are not black and white.

It can't feed many people at all.

The Ming Empire seemed to have a stronger motivation for external expansion.

"It seems we have to make preparations early." As he said that, Zhu Daohua turned to look at Chang Yinghu who was following him.

Therefore, between the Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia, it was obviously more advantageous for Tsarist Russia to have the Ming Dynasty's mortal enemy, the Qing Empire, standing in the middle.

"I am American."

"Where is Sun Shiyi?"

Although the land is large.

They can all be considered to be from the same cultural circle - although they are very stupid to each other.

Tsarist Russia was expanding its influence in the Middle East and the Balkans, and at the same time, Britain was also investing its power in this region.

But now I can only do some fur business.

Sir George Staunton had no favorable impression of these country rich people who dared to use muskets to resist imperial rule just because the British Empire collected some tea taxes.

"Wait, annex the Qing Empire?" Tsarist Russian envoy Vasily Lavrov frowned, "Does the British Empire believe that the war between the Ming and Qing Dynasties is not a Chinese civil war, but an international war, so it is ready to intervene?

?”

Inside the post office of Yingtian Mansion.

Don't say anything else.

Obviously, His Majesty the Emperor succeeded.

What is discussed is "concerted action based on common interests."

Moreover, this Ming Empire does not look like the traditional Chinese Empire at all.

After visiting the capital of the Ming Empire under the leadership of officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Ming Dynasty, these envoys from European countries had a preliminary understanding of the strength of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, at that time, Zhu Daohua did not hesitate to squeeze out goods from the West in order to protect the nascent Ming Dynasty industry.

And now.

And now.

Vasily Lavrov took a breath.

Although the relationship between the United States and Britain in later generations was quite special.

However, the advantages that Tsarist Russia had.

Then he continued: "The Ming Empire has a population of 200 million, which is even more than the total number of all European countries. If they annex the Qing Empire and the Qing Dynasty, this population will expand to 300 million!"

Ever since.

The two countries are fighting each other in Central Asia, the Middle East, and the Balkans.

It will subvert Europeans' understanding of the world with unprecedented power.

"Gentlemen, you actually want to intervene militarily in a war between two great Eastern countries? Should I say that you are overestimating your capabilities, or are you being arrogant?"

What territory did Tsarist Russia have?

It is a bitter cold place like Eastern and Western Siberia.

The power contained in the Ming Empire may require the whole of Europe to unite to compare with it.

It’s just a few hundred kilometers from the mouth of the Yangtze River to Yingtianfu.

Therefore, the two sides are geopolitically opposed to some extent.

It seemed worthless in front of the Ming Empire.

With the technological innovation brought by the steam engine.

"And you don't even dare to intervene militaryly, then I want to know, His Excellency, the King." Nicholas Huntington looked at George Standington.

On population.

Although the territory of the Ming Empire was not as large as that of Tsarist Russia, once the Ming Empire defeated the Qing Empire and captured the territory in the north, its land area would not be much smaller than that of Tsarist Russia.

Compared with the Qing Empire.

"It's a pity, Sir Staunton." The American envoy Nicholas Huntington stood up and unceremoniously demolished George Staunton's stage.

"The British Empire does not seek influence in Northeast Asia." George Staunton said. He stared at Lavrov and said seriously: "And I think Her Majesty the Queen of Russia does not want to be neighbors with Zhu Daohua."

Zhu Daohua just turned this reincarnation in a small direction.

The population of these provinces is almost larger than the population of the entire UK.

Territory?

But in this era when the United States had just gained independence from Britain, the relationship between the United States and Britain was not harmonious.

not to mention.

"How do you plan to interfere in the war between the Ming Empire, which has a Continental Army of more than 200,000 soldiers with better weapons and equipment than the British, and the Qing Empire, which also has an army of hundreds of thousands? You want the British to send all their land forces?

East? I don’t know if the numbers of the British Army can support the attrition of a campaign on such a continental battlefield.”

George Staunton said.

Today's Ming Dynasty does not mind discussing free trade with European countries.

When George Stone saw the envoys from various countries, they all nodded.

Chang Yinghu hurriedly received: "The British Lord has been contacting businessmen in various places in Liangjiang during this period, hoping to attract some investment in the war against India."

If someone could now calculate the industrial output value of the world.

The emergence of this country.

But with its vast territory and large numbers of cheap gray livestock.

"Since you have arrived at Yingtian, the British fleet should be arriving in India soon."

That would be even more incomparable.

Today's Tsarist Russia is essentially a serf state.

Ming Dynasty became the first in the world to taste the sweet fruits brought by the industrial revolution.

Now diplomats from all countries are gathered together.

Whether you are a Protestant, a Catholic, or a believer in the Orthodox Church.

On the other hand, Tsarist Russia was worried that Britain would take advantage of the Ming and Qing wars to develop closer ties with the Qing Empire and begin to gain influence in East Asia, never threatening Tsarist Russia's interests in the Far East.

They even have parliaments from central to local levels!

"The rise of the Ming Empire has had a subversive impact on the current international order. I think you will agree with this, right?"

The industrial output value of Ming Dynasty experienced an explosive growth.
