Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- June is already the hottest time of the year.
Since we all use the lunar calendar, we don¡¯t have to worry about conversions June of the Gregorian calendar has just begun summer.
Liu Mingqi just saw a report from Prince Yu¡¯s Mansion.
It is said that in these two months, milk consumption has continued to increase dramatically, almost double that of the same period last year.
Most of them are used to make yogurt, milk tea, pudding, etc.
This is also a good thing.
But we need a lot of ice. Fortunately, last winter, a lot of it was shipped from the north and stored in the ice cellar.
The climate in the Gyeonggi region is the most suitable for human habitation.
Wheat is grown in the north here, and rice can be grown in the south. Basically, all the crops you can see can be seen here.
In another era, this was a place called the Central Plains.
What is the Central Plains?
So you know why Chinese civilization originated here?
But the Gyeonggi region still has its own shortcomings.
The first one is that the Yellow River has changed its course countless times over thousands of years, destroying cities one after another.
The Great Qin, the Great Han, and the Great Tang all dominated the world in Guanzhong, and all the nations came to the dynasty.
But why did it suddenly decline after that?
The reason is that the Yellow River changed its course, leaving the Guanzhong area without enough water for irrigation. As a result, the fertile Shaanxi Province turned into a loess plateau, which was simply not enough to sustain such a huge population.
The same is true in the Gyeonggi region.
In the future of another time and space, the Imperial City was directly submerged by the Yellow River. The current Imperial City was rebuilt not far from the ruins.
What¡¯s more, the empire must have a core area.
The core area of ??Dakang today is undoubtedly the Gyeonggi region.
We can¡¯t say it¡¯s not good, but if you actively participate in the Age of Discovery, then this place is too far from the sea and it¡¯s difficult to control the process of navigation.
To put it bluntly, it is not easy to control the naval forces who make big voyages, let alone the merchants who make big voyages!
Therefore, Liu Mingqi had already made up his mind that when the conditions were ripe, the only option would be to move the capital.
The place to move the capital does not have to go to Dadu, which is so miserable - do you think what will happen to underground water pumping in the future? In order to provide them with water, a large-scale south-to-north water diversion project was built.
¡°Besides, there is another big disadvantage in Dadu Prefecture, which is the wind and sand blowing from Qiyan Plateau.
It is no exaggeration to say that the people living there are far from happy about the environment.
Why did Zhu Di choose Dadu Prefecture?
The first reason is that this is his hometown. Only by being emperor here can he sit peacefully.
The second reason is because Zhu Di is a very thoughtful person. He regards this place as the first line of attack on the nomads - be careful, it is an attack, not a defense!
??????????????????????????????????????How many times did Zhu Di go out to the fortress? Which one of them didn't he kill the Golden Family to pieces?
He really didn¡¯t expect that his descendants would have to defend themselves so hard in the future.
Liu Mingqi is different.
He has so many weapons in his hands that are beyond the times, and they can be used on a large scale.
For example, wooden handle grenades, hot air balloons, hell cocktails, cannons that are about to be equipped on a large scale, and flintlock guns that are currently being studied.
Once these things come out, the so-called cavalry of the prairie tribes are completely scum.
Liu Mingqi sent out 20,000 well-equipped troops, plus 30,000 auxiliary transport troops, which was enough to sweep through any force until they captured their home base.
Therefore, there is no need to go to Dadu Mansion to defend the country.
Of course, Liu Mingqi had no intention of looking down on the Ming Emperor's efforts to protect the country. Generally speaking, these kings performed their duties well. Even Chongzhen did not go to the south to establish a small court.
But now that he has a better choice, he will definitely choose one that has a small burden on the well-off capital and can flourish and develop actively.
Liu Mingqi has two candidates in mind.
One is Jinling.
Jinling is located in the heart of the south, which avoids the possibility of attacks from the sea, but can radiate the entire Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai areas. It can firmly control the essence of Dakang and provide the fastest response and guidance to large navigation.
And there is water everywhere in Jinling. The Yangtze River, the largest freshwater river in my country, flows directly through here.
So if the capital is here,nbsp;People are selfish after all.
Since it is his descendants who have become emperors, Liu Mingqi naturally does not want them to be overthrown and directly beheaded Being treated as a king of Great Britain is not enough, but it would be best to be treated like the king of Thailand.
As for the last reason, it was also due to Liu Mingqi¡¯s selfishness.
If the capital is located in an area near the sea, its control over the surrounding overseas territories will be enhanced a thousand times.
In Liu Mingqi¡¯s mind, Dakang¡¯s territory should not only be the mainland.
Japan is one of them, but the more important one is the Southeast Asian countries.
The Indochina Peninsula, Philippines, Sulu, Malaysia, etc. around the South China Sea should all be the core territories of the empire.
On this basis, if we can control Australia, it will be the best Dzogchen.
As long as Dakang¡¯s navy is strong enough, as long as there are convenient transportation conditions for the development of steam engines, and as long as our Dakang people, who share the same ancestry and origin, live on those lands, then these territories will be inseparable from Dakang.
To say the least, even if these territories become independent in the future, the majority of them will still be Dakang people, they will still belong to our ethnic group, and they will still represent the inheritance of our civilization.
At that time, there will be a certain degree of competition with the overall major inland suzerain countries, which will give the main suzerain countries a sense of urgency and pressure, which is also a good way to promote progress.
