Dong Shutong whispered love words to his wife on the stage, and the Yin Di'an people in the audience were also extremely proud.
These people all grew up under the oppression of white people.
They have been forced to learn Spanish and practice religion since childhood.
The white people seemed to want to make them the same as the white people, but the white people either drove them to reservations with harsh climates.
Or let them work like slaves in white manors and mines.
Tribes who wanted to preserve their own living habits were constantly driven to more barren places.
They gradually became extinct due to lack of subsistence means. During the past few hundred years of white rule, the population of the Yintian people continued to decrease.
Moreover, those white people also possessed the women of Yin, and a large number of mixed-race people appeared in the area.
Yin Di'an men can't even marry a wife.
This is a subtle genocide.
After a few years, there will no longer be pure Yin Di'an people here.
But things are different now. The Yin Di'an people have their own king and no longer need to be oppressed.
They can graze their own pastures on the plateau and farm their own crops in the rainforest.
Every year when alpacas moult, you can use a comb to comb the down on the alpacas and exchange it for silver coins or banknotes.
Then they can use the money to buy all the necessities of life in nearby towns, things they had never thought of before.
The wife and children can wear new clothes.
Men will even buy exquisite headdresses for their wives and wrap them around their thick, dark braids.
Children can carry their schoolbags to school to study.
The money can also buy them food for the winter, so the herdsmen don't need to devote their energy to farming.
Yin Di'an people can also re-believe in the beliefs of their ancestors and participate in various sacrificial activities.
Of course, it is very rare for the Queen to personally participate in a sacrificial event like this one.
The Yindi'an people by the lake had good luck this time.
…
At the second stop, Dong Shutong and Zhumu came to La Paz.
The city was entrusted to the Duke of La Paz, the original President of Perlivia, Linares.
The president initially tried to attack Donghua, but after the failure, he gave in decisively.
After that, he completely fell in love with the Donghua Empire. He was originally a warlord, and this was also a very typical warlord style.
Relying on Donghua's support, he was not ousted from power, but because of his failure, the warlords in Perlivia gradually began to disobey orders.
By the time the second war broke out, Perivia had become a soft persimmon for anyone to manipulate.
Even a small country like Bragua dared to invade Perivia.
By the end of the war, the Braguay and Tingen federations had surrendered.
When the warlords of Perlivia saw him, they were surrounded by Donghua.
Besides taking refuge in Donghua, their only way out may be to perish.
They are all big families that have been here for hundreds of years, and no one wants to let the family they have worked so hard to build perish.
Just as the Donghua Empire was established, Donghua introduced a system that was more relaxed for white people.
For example, the Tingen Federation and Braguay have not been completely defeated, but have only declared their allegiance to the Queen, and the local areas are still in a state of autonomy.
Perivia also wanted to have self-government, but they themselves were already divided.
Donghua also did not allow Perivia to exist as a country.
This place was very important for Donghua to rule the area east of the Andes.
It is an important channel connecting things.
Naturally, the Donghua Empire would not give up on such a strategic importance.
Therefore, they can only become the direct jurisdiction of Donghua.
It's just that some of the original warlords were named lords and controlled some small places.
In the city of La Paz, the queen and her wife received the most solemn reception.
People throughout the city stood on both sides of the street, waving flowers in their hands.
They thanked Her Majesty the Queen from the bottom of their hearts for bringing them a stable life and keeping them away from war.
The Donghua Empire took back many white people's privileges, but this only affected the large estate owners who only accounted for one percent of the total population.
For ordinary people, they originally have relatively few means of production.
After this place was merged into the Donghua Empire, the power of the lords was restricted, and the people were less exploited.
And they all know what kind of people these lords are, and they all attribute this change to the good governance of the empire.
Therefore, most of the people on both sides of the street sincerely welcomed Queen Zhumu.
Zhumu was dressed in fine clothes. Although she was from Yin Di'an, she had received the education of white people. Standing on the open carriage, she looked so noble.
That night, after the banquet, the Queen did not praise the Duke of La Paz, but criticized him for being too wasteful.
This matter spread quickly, and everyone praised the Queen's frugality, while some privately called Linares a flattering villain.
At the next stop, the two came to Sucre, which had been designated as the eastern capital of the Donghua Empire.
The Governor's Palace, built since the Spanish colonial period, was transformed into the imperial palace.
The two stayed in the palace for a few days, repaired it, and then continued eastward.
This trip spanned several months.
Dong Shu accompanied his wife to Braguay and accepted the oath of allegiance from local forces in the church.
Next we went to Tingen Federation.
Then go to the Port of Buenos and leave on a warship of the Atlantic Fleet of the Donghua Navy.
During this period, they also took a trip to the Malvinas Islands.
After that, they returned to the Pacific Ocean from the Strait of Magellan and went to Chili territory on the way.
Finally returned to Lima.
When Dong Shutong was patrolling to consolidate his territory.
Donghua's Foreign Minister Cai Qiming is still at loggerheads with representatives from Grenada and Laos.
Although the two sides have ceased fire, just like the negotiations between the Renaissance Army and the Great Empire, the confrontation on the negotiating table has not yet ended.
The people of the People's Republic of China hope that the war can end earlier, because the armistice negotiations here will have a great impact on the armistice negotiations between the People's Republic of China and the Renaissance Army.
However, the differences between the Grenada Alliance and Donghua are relatively large.
The Donghua Empire insists on using the current actual control area as the ceasefire line.
Naturally Grenada would not agree.
In this case he will lose the entire Pacific Coast area.
The area west of the Andes from northern Donghua to Bunama will fall into Donghua's hands.
Donghua obviously doesn't want to give up here either.
Because originally Dong Shutong wanted to drive Grenada out of the Pacific coast.
At the same time, this is also consistent with the strategy of the Greater China Circle to monopolize the entire Pacific Ocean.
But the negotiations stalled over this matter.
But Dong Shutong has already communicated with his brother, so there is no need to worry about this matter.
The people of the country are more anxious than anyone else and want to end the war as soon as possible.
There is no need for Donghua to put pressure on those small countries in Grenada that have been crippled. The country of Yu will take care of this matter for them.
Because the Chinese people are now eager to take their power back to Europe.
The German Confederation had begun establishing colonies in Africa, which had never been done before.
Moreover, the Prussians are now frantically expanding their navy, and the Baltic Sea can no longer contain them.
The French expanded crazily in Africa and Amelia at the same time.
When the Ying Kingdom saw these countries that had been suppressed by the Great Ying Empire in the past, they all jumped up. How could they not be anxious?
Therefore, the Korean people will definitely promote the negotiation to be completed as soon as possible.
After all, it is Grenada's interests that are being lost.
The Chinese have already lost the Pacific Ocean.
Another reason why Donghua wanted to control the entire west coast of Amelia was to dominate the fishing grounds here.
At this time, Donghua had discovered that the sea area near Donghua's mainland was the largest fishing ground in the world.
Now the Fuxing Army can install cold storage on large fishing boats, which solves the problem of transporting and preserving fish.
The fish caught here in Donghua can be transported to various parts of the world via specialized refrigerated ships.
In peacetime, time always flies by.
But the seven years of revival will not pass easily.
In the autumn of this year, something unexpected happened.
The Ming Dynasty, the youngest vassal state of the Renaissance Army, was attacked by the Bedouin.
The garrison of the Renaissance Army was mainly stationed in Daming City on the south side of Tadjola at this time.
The naval and army bases of the Renaissance Army in East Africa are being built here.
In order to build this large base, the Renaissance Army brought two engineers from the mainland.
The newly established Ming Dynasty mobilized more than 20,000 migrant workers.
This also allowed the main forces of the Ming Dynasty and the Renaissance Army to move to the south side of Tadjoura Bay.
Nearly 20,000 Bedouin cavalry suddenly entered the Ming Dynasty territory in the north of Tadjoura Bay through the Sultanate of Lakh Ayitu.
Also among their ranks were the nobles of the Tadjoura Sultanate who had originally been exiled to the Lakh Ayitu Sultanate.
Under the guise of helping the Tadjoura Sultanate recover, they burned, killed and looted along the way.
It took more than a day to advance to the city of Tadjoura.
At this time, Zhao Dazhi, who was in charge of the work in Daming City, knew that Daming City had been attacked.
You must know that after Tadjoura defeated the Osa Sultanate, no forces around them dared to attack them.
This also prevented Zhao Dazhi from garrisoning troops outside.
The troops stationed there were garrison troops temporarily trained by the Renaissance Army with the help of the Ming Dynasty.
"What the hell is going on? Where did these Bedouin mercenaries come from?" Zhao Dazhi said angrily.
The intelligence officers on the side, as well as the current prince of the Ming Dynasty, Zhong Chongxiang, were scolded by him.
"Commander, these Bedouins are definitely not simple. It is definitely not the intention of the Sultanate of Rah-Ayitu that they can borrow a passage from the Sultanate of Rah-Ait this time. The king of this small sultanate to the east of us is very timid.
, and they also have to go out to sea to do business through the straits we control."
"I know that the mink-haired king has no courage, but the Bedouin cavalry came from there to kill him." Zhao Dazhi spread his hands and said.
"Commander Zhao, the Bedouin are well-known mercenaries in the desert. As long as someone is willing to pay, they will take over the mission. But the Bedouin's asking price is very high, and they don't really obey the orders of their employers. Therefore, they must be very
Relevant people hired them." Zhong Chongxiang explained on the side. Zhao Dazhi is now the commander of the Daming City Base. In addition to his original 112th Division, he also has two engineering divisions under his control.
So now everyone calls him Commander.
"Then, Your Highness, who do you think instigated these people?" Zhao Dazhi asked.
He knew that Zhong Chongxiang had a very good understanding of the surrounding forces and was a thoughtful person. There must be a reason for saying this.
"Commander Zhao, I think there must be traces of the Chinese people behind this matter. You see, the Bedouin can come from the Sultanate of Lakh-Ayitu, and the Sultanate of Lakh-Ayitu is a vassal of the Egyptians."
"The arrival of the Bedouin must have been approved by the Egyptians. Now the Chinese are the emperors of Egypt, and given the high cost of hiring so many Bedouins, they can only be Chinese."
"It is indeed possible that our intelligence officers found that a large part of the Bedouin race have been equipped with the new rifles of the Korean people." The intelligence officer on the side quickly added.
"That's right, the Bedouins are all poor, and it's impossible for them to buy these guns by themselves." Zhong Chongxiang said.
Zhao Dazhi was a little puzzled: "People from the Yu country? They are now trying to find ways to cease war with us. They shouldn't stir up trouble at this time, right?"
"Commander, the Chinese people like to do little tricks like this. They feel that they do it perfectly every time, but we have discovered this situation many times over the years."
"Damn it, then we'll fight. We'll beat them until they can't find their way back." Zhao Dazhi hammered the table and said.
"Prince, you send someone to contact King Solomon and ask him to help us keep an eye on the Sultanate of Osa. When I get back, I will help him take over the Sultanate of Osa after finishing these Bedouins." Zhao Dazhi told Zhong Chongxiang.
Although this Zhong Chongxiang has transformed into a prince, he still looks like a subordinate in front of Zhao Dazhi.
The people in the Zhong family are all smart people and know who gave them their current positions.
At this time, the Bedouin were furiously attacking the city of Tadjoura.
Fortunately, there is still a battalion of the 112th Division garrisoned in the city.
Coupled with the garrison strength in the city, there were barely two to three thousand people.
Outside the city were nearly 20,000 Bedouin cavalry, some riding horses and some riding camels.
Each one wore a white robe, wrapping themselves tightly.
The rifles were held high in their hands and waved to show off their power to the defenders on top of the city.
The old king Zhong Siming, who had just been canonized, came to the city in person to boost morale.
Basically all the children of the Zhong family came to the city to fight.
This time the enemy came too suddenly, and the city of Tadjola was not prepared at all.
"King, you'd better go down first. Reinforcements will arrive soon. Daming City must have received the news. It only takes half a day for them to arrive by boat."
"Captain Wang, you have worked hard. Tadjola City must not be lost. If this place is lost, the people of our Ming Dynasty will be scattered."
Because Daming City was handed over to the Renaissance Army as a military base, Tadjola City continued to be the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
Except for Zhong Chongxiang who works in Daming City, everyone in the Zhong family is here.
Lao Zhong, the king, hasn't even warmed up his seat yet. He doesn't want to stay here.
"Don't worry, King, last time there were so many Osa cavalry, weren't they annihilated by us?" Wang Zhenchao said, but he could actually see that the enemies coming this time were much more powerful than last time.
At least the muskets held by these people are no longer different from those of the Renaissance Army.
