Chapter 814 Upgraded Circle Circle

These impossible things were finally obtained by Dong Shuheng through the exchange of interests with Prussia.

Most of what Dong Shuheng gave the Prussians were some ideas.

There was also the trade opportunity that the Prussians needed most in the first place.

Now Prussia, under the leadership of the iron-blooded prime minister, has completed the first two parts of the Dynasty War trilogy.

There is also an ultimate goal. As long as it is completed, the German Empire in his mind can be built.

That iron-blooded gentleman has a strong strategic vision.

Some people say that this iron-blooded man is a great leader of his generation. Can’t he see that the development of the Renaissance Army will pose a threat to the entire Europa in the future?

Of course he can see it.

In fact, knowledgeable people in Europe now have such a consensus.

But he is a Prussian, and he must first consider Prussia.

If Prussia is just an inconspicuous small country in Europe, then why should he care about the hegemony of the Baath Army?

As for the rise of the Renaissance Army, that will have to wait at least until Prussia controls the entire Europe.

At least now cooperation with the Baath Army can bring benefits to Prussia.

After listening to Liu Qingbei's words, Guo Songtao felt relieved.

Only the next morning, they received an invitation from Sultan Aziz.

The Sultan's chamberlain said that His Majesty the Sultan insisted on seeing Liu Qingbei despite being ill.

Obviously, Cardogan told His Majesty the Sultan what Liu Qingbei said.

Liu Qingbei met with Sultan.

However, the two sides did not discuss many substantive issues.

They just talked about some economic cooperation.

What Liu Qingbei said about extending the train tracks in Persia to the Ottoman Empire did not receive a positive response.

As expected, His Majesty the Sultan is still more inclined to the West.

Ceylon Island, Bao Youzhi has just finished his trip to East Africa.

After a week's vacation in the Malta Davis Islands.

He returned to Ceylon.

All the warships that had been towed back to China for overhaul have returned.

These fighting battleships have now become the cruisers of the Second Fleet.

Although he was not assigned a domestic cruiser, Bao Youzhi was content.

At least their second fleet already has more than thirty ironclad ships.

This does not include the numerous torpedo boats.

With a fleet like theirs, they can face the naval powers of Europe.

Dong Shuheng was not stingy and gave these battleships the title of "mountain".

Bao Youzhi chose the "Kunlun Mountain" armored cruiser as his flagship.

These warships will be sent to Mumbai to participate in the Victory Memorial Parade.

Most of them will then be sent to Zanzibar to garrison.

There, the objects they have to guard against are the Indian Ocean Fleet of the Great Empire rebuilt by the French in Cape Town, and the French Indian Ocean Fleet in Antsiranana.

The Chinese built a new batch of warships before the Temple government fell.

The total tonnage exceeded 50,000 tons, and the number reached fifteen ships.

It's just that this time the Koreans left most of their battleships on the mainland.

The growing naval power of the German Confederation and the French Empire made the Great Empire nervous.

The Zanzibar Squadron will become the largest squadron of the Second Fleet.

The second is the squadron located in the Tadjoura area. This squadron must intimidate the surrounding Arabs, and must always monitor the progress of the construction of the Soviet Union Canal.

At the same time, they also need to protect the Tadjola base that is under construction.

There are actually no valuable resources in Tadjoura.

The Renaissance Army's original governance rights in the Tadjola area were handed over to the local Ming Dynasty survivors.

What the Renaissance Army actually manages is the base of Daming City.

This saves the Renaissance Army a lot of work.

Zhong Siming has already gone to Xinjing City, at this vassal state conference.

Dong Shuheng will announce the establishment of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhong Siming will serve as the king of the Ming Dynasty and rule the entire Tadjoura region.

However, several major bases will be the permanent bases of the Renaissance Army.

In this way, the Renaissance Army no longer has to worry about the management of local people.

The Ming Dynasty will also become a vassal state attached to the Renaissance Army.

The Mombasa area, which has relatively fertile land, will establish a regional area.

This will be one of the few areas where the Renaissance Army carries out colonial development.

Dong Shuheng is planning to contract the land here to domestic grain merchants.

This place will be built as a food supply base for the East African region.

The local people's ability to farm is really limited, and the European colonies don't like to grow food. They prefer to grow cash crops.

Dong Shuheng believed that if this area could be developed into a large farm to grow food and pasture, there would be a huge market in East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.

The rivers gather here, and it would be a shame if they were not used for farming.

In recent times, East Africa has also been very tense.

The Chinese tightened their control over the entire Egyptian region.

The French were about to complete the conquest of the entire island of Madagascar.

The Malagasy people occupying the southern part of the island have fully accepted French rule.

The Kingdom of Inmerina, entrenched in the central region and occupying two-thirds of the entire island, was attacked from the north and south by the French.

Only a few areas around the royal capital, Tanananalifu, are still in control.

They can only use the terrain to resist. But their demise is only a matter of time.

The French only dispatched 5,000 North African legions and captured the entire island, which also fueled the ambitions of the French.

They began to search for new targets in East Africa.

Recently, the French fleet has been heading north frequently.

This made Bao Youzhi very nervous.

After receiving the new ship at Tin Island, Bao Youzhi hurried back to Zanzibar.

Now Bao Youzhi doesn't miss home at all.

The Sultan Suwini gave him a mansion in Zanzibar.

The key is that there is a golden house hiding beauty inside.

He is happy here now and does not miss Shu.

Unless he returns to Xinjing to report on his work, or his job is transferred, he will not go back for the time being.

Zanzibar, Tadjoura, Ceylon and the vast Indian Ocean gave Bao Youzhi enough room to play.

Now that his men are strong and strong, it is a good time for a big fight.

When Liu Qingbei left the Ottoman Empire and went to the Great Empire to complete the final negotiations.

When Bao Youzhi was showing off his power in the Indian Ocean.

When the American Civil War was raging.

When Dong Shutong of Donghua was accompanying the queen and his wife on a tour of the entire Donghua Empire.

When the French were invading Moxico.

When the German Confederation was participating in the partition of Africa.

Dong Shuheng walked into the great hall.

Hundreds of representatives from the vassal states gathered together.

This year's vassal state conference is unusual.

It’s not just that there are more people.

This year's range is also different from the original.

Sure enough, the day before the meeting started, Tokugawa Yoshiki, the original shogunate of Fuso and now the lord of the Edo domain, brought a group of Fuso daimyo to kowtow in front of the summer palace.

Dong Shuheng sent people to persuade them to retreat.

But I accepted their offer.

The content on the table is very simple. It expresses the gratitude of various Fusang vassal states to Dong Shuheng for saving the people of Fusang from water and fire.

Now that Emperor Fuso has died, only Dong Shuheng is qualified to serve as the co-owner of Fuso.

Immediately afterwards, similar dramas were staged in the vassal states of Nanyang.

But Dong Shuheng refused without exception.

No one was discouraged by Dong Shuheng's rejection.

Because this kind of rejection is preset in the script.

As the conference progressed, the atmosphere was almost heightened.

The day before the meeting ended, all the countries in the Greater China Circle jointly submitted a proposal.

This proposal calls for the reorganization of the current Greater China Circle.

This proposal proposed the establishment of a confederacy with the countries that have signed the three alliance agreements of military, political and military as the core countries.

Each country is still independent. But this right to independence must be within the scope of the alliance agreement.

No individual country is allowed to secede from the Confederation at will or damage the interests of the Confederation.

In addition, they are also preparing to draft a Charter of the Confederation.

The powers of the Confederation Assembly were specifically clarified.

In addition, those countries that have merely joined the free trade treaty are no longer within the scope of the confederacy.

But they can also apply to join the Confederation.

It just requires the consent of all confederation countries.

Of course, the most important thing is to elect a co-leader of the confederation as the head of state.

This head of state is hereditary, and his power comes from the entire confederacy and is unshakable.

One of the main powers of the co-leader is to organize and convene the Confederation Congress.

Every king of a country must be appointed by the co-leader before taking office as governor, and must pay allegiance to the co-owner face to face.

Militarily, this co-leader can declare war between the Confederacy and other hostile forces, and form a coalition within the Confederacy.

The formation of the coalition forces and the sharing of military expenses will be discussed and decided by the Confederate Assembly.

The head of state is also the arbiter of internal conflicts between countries.

If conflicts arise between internal countries or regions.

The co-owners have the right to establish an arbitration institution to conduct arbitration.

Even forming a coalition force to intervene.

Judging from this proposal, the power they transferred to Dong Shuheng was quite large.

However, after Dong Shuheng declined several times, he did not accept it as straightforwardly as most people imagined.

He accepted it on the surface, but added a condition.

Dong Shuheng gave a five-year deadline. He said frankly at the meeting that this burden was very heavy and the power was also great.

So it cannot be decided simply at such a meeting.

He asked each vassal country to spend five years publicizing this matter in their own country, and then let all citizens of the country vote for this matter.

He will only assume this position after all the vassal states have voted within five years.

Moreover, after taking this position, he will step down as the local president.

Dong Shuheng's speech was like a stone that stirred up a thousand waves.

It caused a huge sensation within the Renaissance Army and all the vassal states.

Some people agree, and some express concerns.

Some people appreciate Dong Shuheng's respect for public opinion, while others think he is stalling for time.

Dong Shuheng completely let go of public opinion this time and let the matter ferment to its fullest.

After all, there are no external wars in the Renaissance Army.

The people of Yu are newly defeated, so they won't cause any trouble for the time being.

The French were busy expanding in Africa and Moxico.

For the time being, I will only continue to have a good relationship with the Renaissance Army.

Otherwise, Dong Shuheng wouldn't mind letting them get out of Moxico as soon as possible.

The French are obviously also aware of the influence of the Renaissance Army in Amelia.

They are now making concessions to the Ba'ath Army in terms of dividing interests in the Indian Ocean in exchange for the Ba'ath Army not to interfere with their military operations in Moxico.

The reason why Dong Shuheng agreed to this was actually because he knew that France's invasion of Mexico would eventually fail.

After all, Moxico was once a big country.

Although they have been bullied miserably by the Americans over the years.

But the French came all the way from across the ocean to bully them.

These Moxicans may not necessarily buy it.

Moxigo has a typical mountainous terrain, which is very suitable for guerrilla warfare.

Dong Shuheng only needs to ask the Canadian side to give some advice to the Moxicans and the French will feel better.

Let’s take a look at the iron-blooded prime minister of Prussia.

After helping Italy win Rome, this guy seemed very low-key.

The Prussians did not even publicize their role in the war.

Their most important thing now is to integrate the power of the entire North German Federation.

For example, establishing a railway network between various states.

After the last Prussian-Austrian War, the Prussians saw the huge role of railways in the war.

Having a complete railway network allows your army to assemble faster than the enemy, which will play an important role in the final victory of the war.

So Prussia now has to work hard on its internal strength.

In addition, this iron-blooded prime minister is envisioning the establishment of a grand alliance covering the German Federation, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and Italy.

If this idea can be realized, then this alliance will span the entire continent of Europa.

The area controlled almost covers most of the original Holy Roman Empire.

That way he would be absolutely sure to deal with France.

Even if the Japanese join, it will not have the slightest impact.

But one of the problems is how to convince the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Joseph may not be able to let go of this air.

In the past, Austria-Hungary was the occupying power of Italy and the big brother of Prussia.

Now let him join the alliance formed by Prussia, where will he put his face?

The Iron-blooded Prime Minister must also know that this is difficult.

It is estimated that they will have to wait until they defeat the French and establish the German Empire to prove their strength.

Joseph might even think about it at that time.

Now the German Confederation, in addition to controlling some colonies in Africa.

It's actually quite low-key.

Mr. Iron-Blooded hopes that the French will step up their expansion.

In this way, France's troops will be dispersed.

This is very important for his future war planning.

If you want to defeat the French, you must use the fastest speed.

Otherwise, we will be dragged into a protracted war by the French.

With the huge wealth accumulated by the French, they could even bring Prussia down.

Now he is waiting for the French to release their power.

The Prussian, on the other hand, was clenching his fist and slowly retracting it, preparing for the final punch.
