    ¡ñYin reported in secret that after consolidating the Bandar Abbas Port in Persia, he had found a suitable place to build a port at the northernmost end of the Persian Gulf. It was located at the junction of the two empires of Persia and the Ottoman Empire. He sincerely prayed for Zhenwu.  They spent money to build a port here and stocked up a large number of troops to serve as a forward base for the Qing Dynasty to send troops to Central Asia.

    Yin was also unambiguous and proposed to establish the Qing Dynasty's base in the Persian Gulf at Kuwait Port in the Gulf of Kuwait. In the secret compromise, he even bluntly said that the cavalry of the Arab Empire was completely incomparable.

    Zhenwu looked at the map and found that Yin was in Arabia and Yin was in Persia. Both of them had good vision and realized the strategic value of the northernmost end of the Persian Gulf. They established a port at the northernmost end of the Persian Gulf and relied on the naval superiority of the Qing Dynasty.  It can attack the three great empires of Persia, Ottoman, and Arabia at any time. If it can advance further north, it can reach the Mediterranean. By controlling this area, it can communicate with the three continents of Asia, Europe, and Africa. Its strategic position can be said to be one of the few in the world, let alone that.  The place also has the largest reserves of oil.

    Now that the war in the northwest has begun, it is indeed not advisable to delay the Persian Gulf any longer. It is just that such an important area of ??strategic significance cannot be entrusted. I am afraid that I will disappoint the boss and the second child. After thinking for a while, Zhenwu decided to  Kuwait Port serves as the base of the Qing Navy in the Persian Gulf. This is due to the wide waters of the Kuwait Gulf, which is conducive to naval operations and has room for maneuver.

    After replying to the secret letter, Zhenwu drafted an order to form the Middle East Fleet with Del Xi, the commander-in-chief of the Navy's Beiyang Fleet. The fleet size was tentatively set at 5,000 people, with two third-class battleships, six fourth-class ships, several auxiliary ships, and five additional ships.  Thousands of new troops of the Janissaries accompanied them and headed to Bandar Abbas and Kuwait ports as soon as possible to contain the Persian and Ottoman Empires and prevent them from going north.

    After dealing with the affairs in the Persian Gulf, Zhenwu began to unravel the bargains of Kanyin, Shi Shibiao, Lin Wei, Fu Anding and others. The situation in Europe was far better than Zhenwu expected. Since the summer of Zhenwu's second year, the war in Europe was renewed.  After being provoked, the war situation became more and more intense. The Qing Dynasty rarely directly participated in the war but provided a large amount of supplies to France and Spain, including the Qing Dynasty's new muskets and Nimi bombs.

    Zhenwu was reluctant to give away the new breech-loaded rifled artillery, and Yin and Shi Shibiao were also reluctant to part with it. This was the capital of the Qing Navy's ability to traverse the ocean. Regarding the new artillery, generals such as Yin, Shi Shibiao, Lin Wei, and Fu Anding tried their best to keep it secret.  However, the French learned quickly about the concentrated use of artillery.

    Although there are no new artillery, the French-Spanish coalition has increased its combat effectiveness after acquiring a large number of new Nimi ammunition. Although it is still at a disadvantage in terms of the size of the army, it is the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, the Holy Roman Empire, and Austria that have fought continuously.  , Portugal and other countries' coalition forces were retreating steadily.

    However, the advantage did not last long. However, in more than half a year, the British Alliance learned the secret of the Nimi gun, began to imitate it in large quantities, and equipped it to the army. In fact, the principle of the Nimi gun is not worth anything.  Europe already has it, but it's just stuck at the reloading level.

    The Nimi gun soon became famous and widely popular in Europe. However, at this time, the balance of power between the two major alliances, Britain and France, had been roughly equal, and they could be said to be evenly matched. The European war also began to fall into a stalemate stage, which was different from before.  Yes, because the effective killing radius of the Nimi gun has been greatly increased, and the war mortality rate has also increased significantly.

    The Nanyang Fleet of Yin and Shi Shibiao did not sit idle and watch the fight between tigers. Instead, they began to sweep away pirates in the Mediterranean and the North Atlantic. This restricted the sea routes of British and Dutch merchant ships and affected the maritime trade between the two countries.  Of course, the expansion in North Africa has not stopped. In order to solve the food logistics supply of Tangier, the Nanyang Fleet has brought all the plains in the southwest of Morocco's interior under its control. Tangier is no longer a port, but has become a vast territory.  kingdom.

    What makes Zhenwu even more proud is that the warships and merchant ships of the Qing Dynasty took advantage of various opportunities to continuously transport various types of weeds, plants, animals, and insects from Asia, America, Africa, and Australia that have strong reproductive capabilities or are poisonous.  All over Europe.

    Seeing this, Zhenwu smiled slightly. Biological invasion is a new tactic. Not to mention that Europe is currently at war. Even in peacetime, no one will realize that this is a serious threat to European agriculture and animal husbandry. What's more,  I didn¡¯t realize that this would break the ecological balance of Europe. At this time, I guess there was no concept of ecological balance.

    Alien species are imported in such a conscious and large-scale manner, and no one in Europe is aware of the harm and has no preventive measures. Under such circumstances, I believe that within a few years, these invasive alien species will disappear.  How do Europeans deal with the rapidly spreading hyssop, rough hyssop, knotweed, and goldenrod in the absence of pesticides, herbicides, and lack of sufficient understanding of the biological chain and plant habits in Europe?  , micrantha, water hyacinth, Mediterranean poisonous algae, how to deal with white moths, white snails, hairy crabs, domestic cats, wild goats and other insects and insects that seriously damage the natural ecologyanimal?

    What will Europe look like in a few years?  Needless to say, European agriculture, animal husbandry, and biological chains will all face drastic reductions in production, fatal blows, and even collapse!  This will not only greatly curb Europe's economic recovery, but also greatly limit the growth of Europe's population. Let's see how Europe competes with the Qing Dynasty!

    The Royal Academy of the Qing Dynasty is located in the northwest area of ??Hongren Temple, the imperial city of the capital. This is the address chosen by Zhenwu himself. The reason why he chose this location is that it is convenient for Zhenwu to travel around, and also to enhance the reputation of the Royal Academy.  Of course the environment here is also quite good.

    In the past few years, the Royal Academy has undergone continuous expansion and has surpassed the Imperial Academy in scale. Of course, the facilities in the academy are unmatched by the Imperial Academy. With the decline of a large number of European talents in natural sciences, physical chemistry, astronomy, geography, navigation and metallurgy, etc.  Since then, the Imperial Academy of the Qing Dynasty has rapidly experienced a boom in talents.

    Some of these talents came voluntarily, and some were kidnapped, but without exception, they all came to the Qing Dynasty with their families. Zhenwu treated them all equally, provided them with good food and drink, and never mentioned  Academic requirements, if you like research, you can do it. If you don't want to, you won't force it. There will be no restrictions on your actions. You won't interfere with your interactions with missionaries in the capital. In a word, you will have complete freedom. Of course, there will be those who ask for research funds. They will always grant their requests.  , and even promised to reward those who produced research results with the title of Qing Dynasty.

    At the same time, Zhenwu also ordered people to write various slogans in French, English, and Spanish at the Royal Academy, such as ¡®Science without borders.  , ¡®Technological creation is the ladder of human progress.  , ¡®Technology is the primary productive force, ¡®Technology is the key to mankind¡¯s conquest of nature, etc.

    Zhenwu's attitude greatly eliminated the resistance of these European talents. After feeling the prosperity of the capital and realizing that the fixed monthly routine could not satisfy the wealthy life of the family, many people spent a period of time  After the adaptation period, research began under the leadership of some scholars.

    Zhenwu, who often visits the Royal Academy, often raises various questions and hypotheses in an inspiring manner. For these scholars, a difficult problem or a hypothesis often inspires their research enthusiasm. Many people do this without knowing it.  I devoted myself wholeheartedly to research.

    Northwest.

    Yue Zhongqi led an army of 10,000 men and did not go to Japan, but left Jiayuguan in the west and went straight to Kara Erqis, the royal city of Junggar. In the seventh year of Zhenwu, in the summer, the new army of the Imperial Guard suddenly appeared in the royal city of Kara Erqis.  When Qiu Cewang Alabutan heard the news, he was shocked and hurriedly organized an army of 20,000 to fight. They were defeated in a battle. Yue Zhongqi clung to Qiu Cewang Alabutan and followed and killed him all the way. In August, he chased to Ye, the important town of Junggar.  Erqiang.

    In the battle of Yarkand, the new army of the Imperial Guard wiped out the last 16,000 elites of the Junggar tribe and captured Cewang Alabutan alive. The tribes of the Junggar tribe immediately surrendered upon hearing the news. The news reached Lhasa, and after being cut off,  Celing Dunduobu on the road was forced to surrender with his people.

    In the battle in the northwest, the new imperial guard army became famous, and Yue Zhongqi was even more powerful in the northwest. The news of the victory reached the capital, and Kangxi couldn't help but sigh with emotion. A Galdan, he personally conquered three times, and fought with hundreds of thousands of troops for several years. It can be said that it is  After spending all the country's strength to fight, the Fourteenth now only sent 10,000 troops, and the commander of the troops was still a little-known Han general, but he put down the rebellion in the northwest in one year. This gap is really too big.

    After the great victory in the northwest, Yue Zhongqi did not return to the imperial court. Instead, he built a garrison in Luntai County on the Urumqi River, and recruited refugees to settle the land. Farmers, merchants, craftsmen, and craftsmen were all exempted from all taxes. When the news spread, refugees and herdsmen from all over the country were  , craftsmen, and merchants heard the news, and Zhenwu also dispatched 5,000 Eight Banners Green Camp and 5,000 Imperial Guards New Army from Xi'an to go north to Luntai.

    After solving the future trouble of Junggar in the northwest, Zhenwu immediately turned his attention to the Nanyang vassals. He had been forcing each other hard over the years, but the Nanyang vassals were intimidated by the military might of the Qing Dynasty, and no one dared to rebel. This made Zhenwu  Wu was very unhappy. The Mughal Empire was like a dead snake. No matter how prodded it was, it refused to send troops to Burma. He had no choice but to abandon its reputation and ignore it. Southeast Asia really could not drag on any longer.

    In the spring of March of the ninth year of Zhenwu, Zhenwu ordered Wang Yinxiang of Yijun as the commander-in-chief and Nian Gengyao as the deputy commander. He led a navy of 10,000 people and a new Garopa Guard army of 20,000 people. They headed west out of the Mancha Strait to directly attack Daguang, Myanmar.  Hong Kong, launched an undeclared war, and fully captured Daguang Port on the second day, and then went all the way north to Ava, the capital of Myanmar. Their momentum was overwhelming and they encountered no decent resistance at all.

    It was already sunset, and the surviving Taungoo dynasty of Myanmar was frightened. They sent envoys to Daguang Port overnight to pay homage to the suzerain and inquire about the reason.

    Yinxiang, Prince of Yi County, replied very concisely. There is no reason. His Majesty Zhenwu, Emperor of the Qing Empire, wants to add several more provinces. Either they will become the Qing Burma Province, or we will establish our own provinces.

    In less than half a year, the whole country of Burma surrendered, the Qing Dynasty added another province, and the Toungoo DynastyThe royal family moved to the capital with the ship.

    In the winter of the ninth year of Zhenwu, Siam, Annam, Champa, and Laos all came forward to withdraw from the country and establish provinces, and all Southeast Asia was included in the territory of the Qing Dynasty.

    In the spring of the 10th year of Zhenwu, North Korea also followed suit and asked to withdraw from the country and establish a province. However, Japan still did not see the request.

    In the summer of the tenth year of Zhenwu, Nian Gengyao conquered the Japanese.

    There were no Japanese provinces in the Qing Dynasty. Because there were no people, there was no need to establish provinces. The most important thing the Qing Empire lacks now is land.
