Chapter 522 The Epilogue——Please Don't Call Me Rakshasa
Chapter 522 Epilogue - Please don’t call me Rakshasa, I will be Rome soon!
Listening to Zhuge Weidao's words, Nicholas I was also confused: The United States is not seeking peace, so what's the matter with this emperor? This emperor has not declared war on the United States, and the 10 billion silver dollars must not be part of this emperor.
If we declare war on the United States immediately, we will definitely not have a chance to pay for it. Why would I have a drink to celebrate?
Thinking of this, Nicholas I, who was having dinner with Zhuge Weidao and Natalie, smiled and called to his attendants: "Bring me the vodka, I want to have a drink with Count Zhuge!"
Zhuge Weidao is now the Great Xingbo. Sure enough, there is someone in the palace who can be granted a title! Although Empress Dowager Zheng has no real power, her words are still useful when it comes to the issue of titles. Of course, credit is still required.
! But if there is only merit and no one in the palace, the title will not be promoted so quickly, and it will be difficult to get a "big title".
According to Zhuge's contribution to Taoism, it was only a matter of time before he was granted the title of Marquis. However, in order to reflect the nobility of the title, the new Ming Dynasty generally did not do it in one step. Usually, the title of baron was first granted, and then slowly one level at a time.
Slowly. From baron to marquis, it usually takes ten or eight years.
However, Zhuge was doted on by the Empress Dowager, so his title rose quickly. It didn't take long for him to change from Daxing Nan to Daxing Bo. When a comprehensive peace was officially reached, Daxing Marquis became the Dukes of Guangyang and Ji Guo.
, it is only a matter of time that "big titles" such as the Prince of Guangyang and King Ji are given.
From now on, the Zhuge family will be a double king!
When Zhuge was having a good time, vodka had already been served. Not everyone had it. Natalie, who was pregnant, still drank tea instead of wine. Nicholas I's queen, Alexandra from Prussia
Fiorovna (the daughter of Frederick William III, formerly known as Charlotte) and Elena Pavlovna (Princess Charlotte of Württemberg), the wife of Grand Duke Mikhail, also drank.
For wine, Zhuge Weidao, Nikolai and Mikhail all served vodka.
After two glasses of vodka, the atmosphere at the dinner scene immediately became a lot hotter—it was so hot that Zhuge Weidao even blushed!
Nicholas and Mikhail's drinking capacity was much better than that of Zhuge Weidao. How could they be called stupid if they couldn't drink? They saw that Zhuge Weidao was very drunk, so they did not continue to toast, but started to ask questions while singing along.
The truth is spoken after drinking.
"Taozi," Grand Duke Mikhail smiled and began to paraphrase Zhuge Dao, "Is defeating the United States really so worthy of happiness?"
"Of course!" Zhuge Weidao said with a smile, "The United States is our main enemy. Our two countries! If the United States is allowed to fully rise, then the future world will belong to the Anglo-Saxons and the Jews, and both of us will be invaded by the Anglo-Saxons.
-If the Saxon alliance is firmly suppressed, life will not be easy!"
Nicholas I and Mikhail were confused after hearing this, and looked at each other, and then at Natalie, who was drinking tea with a frown on her face - she couldn't drink, and her mouth almost turned like a bird!
Natalie still noticed the eyes of her two brothers, and immediately understood what they meant, so she explained with a smile: "In the Ming Dynasty, people call the people whose mother tongue is English the Anglo-Saxons.
, and regard them as the biggest obstacle to the Ming Dynasty in leading the world. Among them, the Anglo-Saxon countries with vast, fertile, warm land and long coastlines are the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty!"
Nicholas I was always a little frightened when he heard this: The United States is not half as big as the Rakshasa Empire under my rule, so why is it the biggest threat? That Rakshasa Empire is so big.
Natalie seemed to have read through the Czar's brother's thoughts, and explained with a smile: "In the Ming Dynasty, people value the effective land area. That is, the land area suitable for people to live and develop. Almost all the territories of the United States of America are
It is an effective land area, rich in resources and fertile land, and can fully accommodate more than 1 billion people. Although Rakshasa is extremely vast, most of the land is frozen soil, and the value of development and utilization is not high. The real effective land area is only one
It covers an area of 2 million square kilometers, and there is no Fuchanningbuluo port suitable for industrial development. The Black Sea, a relatively excellent seaport, is blocked by the Ottoman Turkish Empire, so it is difficult to develop the Black Sea coast."
Nicholas suddenly looked at Zhuge Weidao and asked word by word: "Then if the Rakshasa Empire takes Constantinople, opens the mouth of the Black Sea, and becomes a big country with warm water ports, will it be able to reconcile with
Compared to the United States of America?”
Zhuge Weidao laughed, waved his hands and said: "We don't care about Constantinople, the Turkic Straits, or the Balkans. And now the Ottoman Empire is still at war with us. So, go ahead and get it! But the Ottoman Empire should
Retain the Asia Minor peninsula except the coastal part of the Tartar Strait and the Armenian plateau. In the future, the Ottoman Empire should exist as a neutral buffer state between the Arab Empire and the Rakshasa Empire."
Zhuge Weidao turned out to be just blushing and not really drunk from two glasses of vodka. His thoughts are still very clear now, and at least he understands the purpose of coming to Rakshasa Kingdom. He didn't come all the way to find Ni.
Gula I was drinking - he didn't come with Natalie alone, but he came with the entire main force of the Atlantic Fleet!
This effect is more shocking than the American Great White Fleet's circumnavigation in history. After all, the Ming Navy has just won the world's sea power!
Now Zhuge Weidao is visiting the coasts of Europe with such a huge fleet of victors, just to tell all European countries: The Ming Dynasty has arrived, don't move, otherwise you will be beaten!
Although it is impossible for Zhuge Weidao to lead the Atlantic Fleet to destroy anyone's country - the navy cannot go ashore! But it can completely block any country's maritime trade!
For any industrialized country, being locked up in maritime trade means losing its future. This is why the United States of America is willing to pay astronomical amounts of compensation and demand peace. Otherwise, let alone international trade, advanced technology cannot be introduced.
, you can’t even use the boundless fertile land of the United States to attract European immigrants!
It is up to the Americans to give birth to themselves. Let alone 1 billion people, 100 million people will probably have to give birth slowly for 100 years. Therefore, in order not to be completely blocked by the Ming Dynasty, the United States has to grit its teeth and admit defeat.
Of course, Rakshasa is not the United States. The Rakshasa Empire has a traditional friendship with the Ming Dynasty, and it did not respond to the "anti-yellow peril" call of Great Britain and Napoleon II. Because of its close relationship with the Bourbon dynasty, it has always been in close contact with Napoleon II.
Serious antagonisms in the world - this antagonism restrained most of the forces on the European continent, leaving the Anglo-Saxons to be a "father and son nation", and ended up with a disastrous defeat.
Therefore, the Rakshasa Empire contributed to the victory of the Ming Dynasty. With its contribution, of course it can be divided. And because the Ottoman Turkish Empire sided with the British, of course it had to accept punishment!
And there will be an extremely heavy price to pay. Who made the two mortal enemies Rakshasa and Arab are good helpers on the side of the Ming Dynasty? Of course, the fat that Rakshasa and Arabia eat must be cut from Osman!
Nicholas had already made a plan at this time, nodded and said: "Okay. Just leave the Ottoman Empire alone! However, I have an additional condition!"
"What conditions?"
Nicholas I smiled and said: "When I take Constantinople, my empire will no longer be Rakshasa, but Rome. Then I will be the great emperor of the Roman Empire!"
Chapter completed!
