Dong Shuheng had no impression in his memory. He could only analyze the data sent back from the European station.
Fortunately, the European station is now the largest and most powerful branch of the Intelligence Department.
Of course, the European station also consumes the most money every year.
In addition to the backbone sent by the local people, Shi Yang, Bai Meigui, Gao Ru, etc.
They also recruited a large number of local people as downlines, and even maintained a small team of mercenaries.
In addition to being an easy place to recruit mercenaries, Europa is also an easy place to recruit intelligence agents who serve as down-line agents.
Although Europe is now the most developed place in the world, the gap between rich and poor is also the most serious.
Black-hearted factories are finding ways to exploit workers in order to increase the competitiveness of the goods they produce.
Land annexation is serious, and a large number of farmers have moved into cities. Not everyone can find a job.
Homeless homeless people can be seen everywhere on the corners of dirty streets.
They can either choose to venture to the New World or stay where they are and wait for kind-hearted employers to hire them.
Otherwise, we can only wait for mold and decay in hunger.
If no one organizes them, the governments controlled by the capitalists will not care about their life and death at all.
Prime Minister's residence in Downing Street.
"Bonaparte is a coward! Trash!" Prime Minister Temple cursed regardless of his appearance.
The French were the main force in the retaliatory action planned by Temple against the Renaissance Army.
He also did not expect Tsarist Russia to actually launch a full-scale war against the Baath Army.
I originally thought that Napoleon III made such a big battle because he was preparing for a big fight with the Renaissance Army.
Unexpectedly, before the French army set off, they were told to confine the war to Annan and avoid a naval battle with the Renaissance Navy.
The Great Empire originally wanted to test the Renaissance Army with the French fleet to see what their strength was.
Before the French went to war, the Great Empire had reached a verbal agreement with them.
If the French Far East Fleet goes to war with the Renaissance Army at sea.
Then the navy of the Great Empire will also join the battle to safeguard the interests of the allies.
But the naval battle never started.
The Great Empire's plan to test the Renaissance Army's trump card did not come to fruition.
In recent times, Temple has used more and more foul language in cabinet meetings.
"Prime Minister, you know that Napoleon III is a speculator. People like him like to take small profits and are unwilling to pay." Foreign Secretary Lord Clarendon said.
"My Lord Prime Minister, he has become very close to the Kingdom of Sardinia in recent times. I don't know what benefits the Kingdom of Sardinia has given him. He is now secretly helping the Kingdom of Sardinia to expand its army," Lord Clarendon continued.
.
"Oh, really? Napoleon III has always had a close relationship with Cavour. Could they be trying to attack Austria this time?" As a veteran troublemaker of Europa, the Great Empire naturally has complicated grudges and grudges against Europa.
Know it like the back of your hand.
The Great Empire had also been committed to weakening Austria before.
The former HRE Empire shocked the whole of Europe.
The Thirty Years' War left an unforgettable memory to Europeans.
However, in recent years, Austria's national power has been deteriorating. Its voice in Europe has become weaker and weaker.
On the contrary, Prussia, which was originally only second in Germany, forged ahead and became more powerful.
Since the end of the Prussian-Danish War, Prussia has had an increasing voice in northern Europe.
Many North German states followed Prussia's lead.
Under such circumstances, the Great Empire no longer contained Austria, but instead supported Austria against Prussia.
Recently, the Great Empire has provided diplomatic support to Austria on the issue of Holstein.
"Yes, Prime Minister, you know that Austria is the biggest obstacle to the unification of Italian regions. Now that the Italian people have awakened, no one can stop them from moving towards unification."
"Well, there are enough powerful countries on the European road. It is best for Italy to be divided like this. They should serve the Pope well," Temple said.
From the perspective of the Great Empire, the continent of Europa should be in a state of division with numerous small countries.
It would be best if there was only one powerful country in the whole of Europe, the Great Empire.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, we'd better pay attention to the situation in Mexico recently. Their liberals have gone too far. They owe us a large national debt."
Mexico is now called the United Mexican States. It was a country established in 1824 after the collapse of the First Empire.
This place was able to give birth to some of the few civilizations in America, and its geographical conditions should be said to be relatively good.
Arable land resources and mineral resources are very rich.
But now it has been crippled by these so-called republican oligarchs.
Not only was he beaten to pieces by a group of southern American militiamen in the Mexican-American War.
It also owes a large amount of foreign debt, and a large part of its annual fiscal revenue must be used to repay interest.
Lord Clarendon meant that the United Mexican States might default on its debt.
These days, if you rely on other countries' debts, it means war. They can mobilize an army to rob it.
"These Mexicans are also a bunch of useless trash. They are descendants of Spaniards after all. They all have the same virtue."
"The struggle between liberals and republicans in Mexico is very fierce now, and the Mexican government has been in a serious financial crisis. It is said that Napoleon III has been paying attention to the affairs of Mexico and even sent a delegation there." Clara
Lord Lunden continued to introduce.
"Napoleon III wants to meddle in Mexican affairs?"
"Yes, Prime Minister. He has been interfering in the affairs of various continents since he came to the throne. Judging from some of his actions in Africa and Asia, it is possible for him to interfere in Mexico's internal affairs."
"Then let's follow up. America is getting more and more chaotic now. We need to send a letter of inquiry to Sir Hurd. He promised to drive away those Chinese last summer."
"Now the Chinese are not only increasing in number, but also have established a firm foothold. The whole of Canada belongs to the Great Empire, why should we share it with them?" When he mentioned Mexico, Temple thought of Canada's bad things.
.
The Empire of Great Britain has lost America. The Canadian region must not allow any loss.
Colonial Secretary David had to stand up quickly: "Yes, Prime Minister, Governor Hurd did not handle it properly. He underestimated the Chinese. He thought he could drive the Chinese away by relying on the Indians. He lost precious time."
"Since I have lost time, it will take me a long time to make up for it."
"Prime Minister, Hurd said he doesn't have enough manpower and needs us to provide a large number of immigrants or ask the mainland to send troops directly."
"In terms of immigration, we have been working hard. Now the judges are almost all sentencing people to exile, but Australia, New Zealand, and Cape Town are all in need of immigrants. Our number of immigrants is seriously insufficient." The more David spoke, the more helpless he became.
There is only a small population in the mainland of the Great Empire.
Nowadays, prices in the Great Empire are soaring, but workers’ wages have not.
This makes many working class people unwilling to have too many children.
In addition, the area of the mainland is only so large, and housing in the city is expensive.
Therefore, the population of the Great Empire has hardly increased in these years.
"Then recruit servant troops from the Indian region. We cannot allow these Chinese to expand without limit. Oh my god, where did they get such a large population!"
"Prime Minister, I heard that the Ba'ath Army has introduced many encouraging policies, and their population base is relatively large, so they can support a steady stream of immigrants. In addition, they also have coercive measures. It is said that under the rule of the Ba'ath Army
If the number of children exceeds a certain value, the extra children will have to obey foreign arrangements and move to other places to live when they reach adulthood." David has always been troubled by immigration work.
He also knew that the Renaissance Army's immigration work had been doing very well, so he went to find out more about it through people in the intelligence department.
"Can you still operate like this?" Everyone sitting there felt very incredible after hearing this.
"Can we emulate this approach?" Temple asked.
No one spoke.
Everyone knows very well that if the Empire of Great Britain engages in this kind of forced immigration in the mainland, the parents of those children may destroy the Prime Minister's mansion.
Temple will definitely not implement such an offending policy for the time being.
Because the election year is coming soon. His re-election is already facing threats due to the disadvantages of the war in India.
If such an immigration policy were introduced now, all votes from the conservative side might be lost.
There has always been a voice within the Da Ying Empire, and they called on the Da Ying Empire to move its center to the New World.
And treat the local area as a sub-center.
Because for such a huge empire, their homeland is too cramped.
Moreover, with the industrial revolution over the years, the local pollution problem in the Great Empire has become very serious.
The air in London is like poison on a foggy day.
And this city happens to be a foggy city.
It's just that this sound is very weak.
Because the conservatives of the Great Empire are firmly opposed to doing this. Not just because it will affect their interests, but because the center of gravity will be moved to the New World, the influence of the Great Empire on Europa will be weakened.
Countries like France and Prussia may become new superpowers and affect the status of the Great Empire's hegemon.
The Great Empire as a whole still tends to be more conservative.
Temple himself is relatively open-minded, but he also has to yield to most people.
"Prime Minister, we can't force people to move to the colonies now. Otherwise, what should we do with so many factories in the country?"
Temple nodded to express his understanding. Those local factories are the basis for the Great Empire to maintain its dominance.
The machine is turning, causing all the world's resources to be concentrated in the mainland of the Great Empire.
"Canada's problems must be solved eventually. Not only that, we also need to speed up the development of Cape Town, Australia and New Zealand. I'm worried that there will be Chinese there soon." Temple said worriedly.
Nowadays, the Chinese people are exploring various islands in the Pacific, and the Great Empire is also aware of it.
Such as their development in the eastern half of Papua.
There is nothing the Great Empire can do about it. It makes no sense to the Great Empire to waste its power in such a remote place.
Originally, the Great Empire wanted to provoke the Dutch to prevent the expansion of the Renaissance Army in the Pacific Islands.
But since the Renaissance Army defeated the Spaniards, it was too late for the Dutch to hide from the Renaissance Army, so how could they provoke him?
In the entire Papua Island, the Dutch only established a coastal stronghold in the westernmost part.
There were neither spices nor gold mines there. The Dutch simply did not want to spend much experience there.
Moreover, the Renaissance Army only occupied the eastern half. Originally, the Dutch were prepared to occupy the Western half if the Renaissance Army also occupied it.
They simply exited from there.
Now the Netherlands is no longer able to maintain its rule in the southern part of the Spice Islands.
The surrounding small Chinese countries are expanding their land all the time.
But the natives simply don't know how to develop it.
The Dutch did not control much of their own land, most of it was under the names of those affiliated with the Dutch Sultanate.
Every time these sultanates failed in a war with a Chinese country, they would turn to the Dutch.
But where can the Dutch take care of it?
As time went by, many natives simply defected to the more powerful Chinese country.
This made the Dutch's control area smaller and smaller.
The greatest worry of the Great Empire is that the Renaissance Army will use Papua as a springboard to enter Australia.
Compared to the Great Empire, the Renaissance Army is much closer to Australia.
After discussing this matter, it actually comes down to immigration.
In the past, you could conquer all over the world with your own strong ships and guns.
But when others have strong ships and cannons, it depends on the speed of their own immigration and development.
This is effective occupation.
If it cannot be effectively occupied, then it is very likely that the land will be lost.
Since the Renaissance Army joined, the colonial model in the world is quietly changing.
Many people have not discovered this. But some smart people have noticed this.
Finally, regarding the issue of Canada, transfer people from the British Indian colonies as Temple said.
From the perspective of the Great Empire, the land in Canada cannot be given to the Chinese even if it is given to the indigenous people of India.
In order to solve the problem of the source of domestic immigrants, the Minister of the Interior made a good suggestion.
That is to migrate the Irish people out in large numbers.
In recent years, rebellions have continued to occur in Ireland, which has become a security risk in the country.
It would be better to gradually relocate the troubled people there.
After all, those people are still white people, so they probably won't get together with the Renaissance Army.
Moreover, this can also eliminate security risks in Ireland, which is a multi-purpose thing.
The meeting is still going on.
"Prime Minister, the Academy of Sciences recently submitted a report, hoping that the government can support the development of electric power." said the Minister of Industry.
"Shouldn't they go to those factories for this matter?" Temple said. The Great Empire practiced a free economy.
There are no enterprises in the hands of the government.
"Prime Minister, they came to the government after hitting a wall in the enterprise. They said that Prussians and Chinese people are now vigorously developing the application of electricity. Berlin already has trams." The Minister of Industry introduced.
The Great Empire has always been at the forefront in the research of electricity.
This suggestion was put forward by the famous Mr. Faraday.
When Xu Shou was in Europe, he studied with Faraday for a period of time.
Faraday was extremely anxious when he saw that both Prussia and China had begun to put electricity into practice.
He knows that science can develop more rapidly only when it is applied to practice.
He took his product to find some factories, but no one was willing to replace the already mature steam engine with an electric motor.
The Great Empire was the first country to popularize steam engines. This actually became an obstacle to their popularization of electricity.
"Well, you tell them that the government is willing to support them in building a tram line in London. But they have to find companies willing to invest on their own," Temple said.
He has no energy to take care of this matter now, and he has no money in his hands.
