Chapter 345 Conquest

Chapter 345 Conquer

Emperor Wanli and others had already left, and only Wang Pu, Wang Fa and his son were left in the study.

Wang Fa looked at Wang Pu with some angrily and asked, "Dad, why did you do this? Why did you return the military power to Emperor Wanli? Do you know the consequences of doing this? Now that you are alive, they certainly dare not treat our Wang family, but if you are a hundred years later, will they let our Wang family go?"

"They?" Wang Pu said coldly, "Who are they?"

Wang Fa said: "Of course he is a royal person."

Wang Pu said: "How can the royal family do to the Wang family?"

Wang Fa said: "Of course we can't do anything about the Wang family now, but what about you a hundred years later? They have military power in their hands, will they let us go?"

"Military power?" Wang Pu sneered, "I have already made it clear in front of everyone just now. The emperor is just the supreme commander of the imperial army. Without the support of the cabinet and the two houses of Congress, he would not be able to mobilize a soldier at all."

Wang Fa hurriedly said: "But..."

"Nothing but." Wang Pu opened his old eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Don't think that your father doesn't know what you think. Don't you just want to monopolize power like your father? Now, you can tell you clearly that you don't have that qualification! The reason why you divide the military power into three parts is to prevent you from monopolizing power!"

Wang Fa lowered his head and said embarrassedly: "Father, this is also for the Wang family..."

"Shut up." Wang Pu cursed impolitely, "If you really do it for the sake of the Wang family, then do it according to your father's wish. What's the best thing to be an emperor? Today you can monopolize the throne of the Zhu family, and tomorrow other families will monopolize the throne of your Wang family with Daquan. You can go back and think about it carefully, and when will you figure out when you will go to the cabinet office."

Wang Fa was surprised when he heard this. If he couldn't figure out what Wang Pu said, the chief minister of the cabinet would have to change people.

"Great grandpa, are you angry?"

The atmosphere in the study suddenly became a little solemn. At this moment, a young child voice floated in with a child. The child who came in met a model six or seven years old and looked like a treacherous man. The little guy named Wang Zhi, nickname Prince, is the eldest grandson of the Wang family, Wang Fa's grandson, and Wang Pu's great-grandson.

"Oh, Guai Zhi'er is here." Wang Pu's old face immediately laughed, and he stretched out his dry hands to hug Wang Zhi, "Come on, Grandpa hug..."

Wang Zhi reached out to put his arm around Wang Pu's neck, kissed Wang Puhuai's old face like a bark, and said, "Great grandpa, mom said you can't be angry, being angry is not good for your health."

"Oh, Zhi'er is so sensible." Wang Pu reached out and twisted Wang Zhi's little face, and turned his head to look at Wang Fa. His face turned a little gloomy, and he said, "It's not like some people who are old and already have grandfathers, but they still don't understand right and wrong, don't understand the truth, and only care about their own selfish desires all day long..."

Three days later.

The Ministry of Rites held a special ceremony. In front of all the cabinet officials, the two members of the assembly and hundreds of thousands of people in Nanjing, Wang Pu handed over the gold-inlaid sword, which symbolized the status of the supreme commander of the Central Army, to Emperor Wanli, and also informed the world of the separation of powers proposed by Wang Pu, clarifying the powers of the emperor, the cabinet, and the parliament.

On the same day, the separation of powers was written into the Ming Dynasty law, which is the constitution of the Ming Empire.

From this day on, the political structure of the separation of powers of the Ming Empire was formally established.

The imperial emperor was the highest head of the empire and the supreme commander of the imperial armed forces, but he had no administrative power and could only exercise the power of the supreme commander when the empire and nation were threatened.

The cabinet chief is elected by two houses of parliament. Once the prime minister is appointed, he can directly appoint the secondary assistant, six ministers and other officials to form a new cabinet. The cabinet is the actual manager of the empire and has the right to reject the emperor's order to condemn the armed forces. However, the two houses of parliament also have the right to pass a resolution to impeach the cabinet chief. Once the majority are passed, the cabinet chief minister will have to step down.

Therefore, in fact, the two houses of Congress are the highest authority of the empire, which is consistent with Wang Pu's original intention. As a time traveler, Wang Pu knew very well that the more concentrated the power, the more likely it is to have problems. Only by dispersing the highest power to a relatively large majority of people, the country and nation will not have major problems.

However, everything has advantages and disadvantages. In this way, politics will be stable and the country and nation will not have major problems. However, the three major forces of the Congress, the cabinet, and the emperor will argue with each other and fight each other often, and the efficiency of governments at all levels will inevitably be greatly reduced.

If the Ming Empire was a poor, backward and weak country, such a political system would be a disaster, which would only make the empire weaker and weaker. Fortunately, the Ming Empire is the most powerful empire in the world, and both military and political strength are far better than the sum of the rest of the world's countries.

This is like the later world hegemony of the United States. Although the two parties are fighting and quarreling with each other due to the problem of the democratic system, with the economic strength that is much higher than other countries and the first-class military strength, Americans can still live a leisurely and comfortable life steadily by sucking the blood and sweat of the people of the world.

In this world, the Ming Empire, which was in the alternating period of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, was much stronger than the United States in later generations, because by the 333rd year of the Ming Dynasty, the Han population accounted for 960 million of all 150 million people in the world, and the Ming Empire accounted for more than 99% of the GDP of the world!

Spring goes and autumn comes, and three years have passed again in a blink of an eye.

Wang Pu is already ninety-two years old, and the sparse white flowers on his head have almost fallen out. His face, like a locust tree bark, is covered with old man spots. The old man can no longer walk by himself and has to rely on others to support him. The abandoned scene has already enveloped this great man who once called the wind and rain on the territory of the empire.

The cold wave from Siberia has swept across the south of the Yangtze River, and the entire south of the Yangtze River is covered with white snow.

It was finally easy to wait for the sunny day, and the old guy came out to bask in the sun with the help of his maid. Looking around, there was a piece of silver makeup in Changyuan, and the sky above his head was as clear as if it had been washed, without any flaws. The old guy curled up and lay on the soft couch without moving.

The old guy looked like he was about to die, and all his vitality had retreated into the turbid pair of eyes.

Only the closest people around Wang Pu know that Wang Pu still has a wish before he can fulfill his wish. Before this wish is over, he will never die. This wish is to conquer Europe!

Seven months ago, 200,000 Central Army, led by Imperial Marshal Li Dingxi and Tang Hao, divided into two groups to expedition to Europe. The northern route was led by the Empire's Left Marshal Li Dingxi, and advanced to Qucheng by railway line, then attacked south through Russia, Ukraine, Poland, and Prussia, and the southern route was led by the Empire's Right Marshal Tang Hao, with the cooperation of the navy. With the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Suez Canal, and the Mediterranean landed in the southern part of the Italian Peninsula, then crossed the Apennines, crossed the Alps, and attacked northward.

According to the combat plan of the General Staff, the two armies of the north and south will eventually meet in France. Once the two armies meet, it means that the entire Europe has been humiliated by the iron hoof of the Ming Empire.

At that time, the military forces in the whole of Europe were the strongest, Britain had a strong navy, and France had a strong army. If it were not for Wang Pu, if Longwu had not revived, if the world still developed according to the original historical trajectory, Britain would definitely become the maritime overlord, and France would become the first army power on the European continent, especially after the war madman Napoleon appeared.

Unfortunately, with Wang Pu's time travel, Britain and France will never have the chance to become the world overlords.

Wang Pu raised his head and looked at an old sycamore tree above his head. There was still a dead leaf hanging on it, swaying in the wind. Somehow, an indescribable sadness suddenly surged in Wang Pu's heart. He felt that his life was like this dead leaf, and it could pass away with the wind at any time.

Calculate the time, the two armies expeditions to Europe should have been heard back...

Europe, France.

Li Dingxi's northern army was driving along the main road towards Paris.

The expedition was very smooth. Seven months ago, a 150,000 army set out from the base camp Qucheng (Yekajielin Arbor) and occupied Moscow in less than half a month. Russia announced its surrender and destroyed Russia, Li Dingxi quickly organized Russian laborers to repair the railway between Qucheng and Moscow.

As early as more than ten years ago, the Ming Empire assisted European countries in the name of friendship to build railways worth tens of thousands of miles, from Moscow in Northern Europe to Lisbon on the coast of Western Europe. At that time, the Ming Empire did not build a railway from Beijing to Qucheng, so Europeans did not know the wolves ambitions of the Ming Empire.

A year ago, the empire built the railway from Beijing to Qucheng, which was like a major artery. In a short period of time, a large number of soldiers and materials were continuously transported from the north and south to Qucheng. In less than half a year, the Ming Empire gathered 150,000 troops and enough food, weapons and ammunition to consume in Qucheng for three years!

When everything was ready, the 150,000 Central Army of the Ming Dynasty, led by Li Dingxi, bravely crossed the Ural Mountains and launched a lightning attack on Europe. At that time, Europe was still a basin of loose sand, and there were constant melee between countries. It has to be said that the diplomatic work of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Empire was extremely outstanding and successfully provoked melee between European countries.

Therefore, when the 150,000 Central Army of the Ming Dynasty launched a devastating attack on Russia, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Poland and other countries around it were either fighting in a melee or gloating, they were reluctant to send troops to rescue them. By the time France, located in Western Europe, was preparing to send troops, Russia had already surrendered.

After the destruction of Russia, Li Dingxi arrested workers in Russia, and together with hundreds of thousands of Japanese slaves, Indian slaves and black slaves imprisoned in the Qucheng concentration camp, they worked together to repair the railway from Qucheng to Moscow. If this railway is built, the eastern artery that lies across Siberia can be connected with the western artery that lies across Europe, and the empire's materials can be continuously transported to Europe in a short period of time, which will provide strong logistical support to the expeditionary force.

While repairing the railway, Li Dingxi did not stop conquering Europe. The 150,000 troops divided into three groups to launch a full-scale attack on the hinterland of Europe. The northern army had about 20,000 troops, and went west to attack Sweden, Finland, Norway, and the southern army about 30,000 troops, and attacked the Caucasus, Iran and the Ottoman Empire. Li Dingxi personally led a hundred thousand troops to Ukraine and Poland.

The three armies swept across Europe in less than half a year and destroyed countless countries. At the same time, the Ming Empire was far away in Central Asia, the Middle East, and Eastern Africa. The colonial legions of India also cooperated with the Central Army to launch an attack on the directions of Iran, Ottoman and Caucasus in West Asia.

Six months later, the Northern Empire Army led by Li Dingxi basically wiped out the northern European, Eastern European and Western Asian countries, conquered nearly ten million square kilometers of territory, and also built a railway line between Qucheng and Moscow. Of course, this railway line was filled with the corpses of Japanese slaves, Indian slaves, black slaves and Russian slaves. According to statistics from later historians, in order to build this railway within six months, more than 500,000 workers fell on the construction site due to overwork. It is no exaggeration to say that this railway was completely piled up with the corpses of slaves.

After defeating Northern Europe and Eastern European continent, Li Dingxi led his troops straight and advanced to East Prussia.

In East Prussia, the Central Army of the Ming Dynasty finally encountered strong resistance. France, England, the Netherlands, Denmark, Prussia, Austro-Hungarian Empire, Bulgaria and other countries gathered more than one million coalition forces to deploy heavy troops on the west bank of the Danube.

Although Li Dingxi was not afraid of the more than one million European coalition forces, he did not dare to take it lightly.

In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, Li Dingxi temporarily stopped moving south and waited for Tang Hao's southern army to launch a fatal blow to the European countries, and then destroyed the millions of coalition forces on the other side of the Danube with the force of Mount Tai. As a result, the situation on the battlefield on the northern front temporarily fell silent.

When Li Dingxi's army swept across Northern Europe and Eastern Europe, Tang Hao's southern army was progressing slowly.

Although the navy of the Ming Empire defeated the joint fleet of the Royal English Navy and the Spanish Navy and won the Mediterranean Navy. Tang Hao's 50,000 troops also landed successfully at the southern end of the Apennine Peninsula, but at the foot of the Alps, they were stubbornly resisted by the British and French coalition forces.

In addition, the Alps were steep and were not conducive to artillery passage and large troops march. Tang Hao led his army to attack for two months without any progress. As a last resort, Tang Hao had to report to the General Staff for approval and changed the combat plan. The army landed again on the eastern coast of Spain and then attacked southwestern France.

The emergence of the southern army made Spain and France difficult for them to resist because all the armies of the two countries had gathered on the Danube front to resist Li Dingxi's northern army. The southern army, which had not suffered much resistance, swept across the northeastern Spain and the southwestern France, with the troops aiming directly at Paris.

Almost at the same time, the northern army, which had been confronting the European Union on the east bank of the Danube River for nearly two months, also launched a fierce attack. Li Dingxi concentrated twenty artillery battalions and 4,000 cannons to bombard the European Union's middle. In just two hours of artillery attack, more than 400,000 shells were poured into less than three square kilometers of land.

After the shelling ended, the land on the west bank of the Danube River seemed to be plowed by iron plows, and no grass grew, and even planted crops directly. More than 200,000 European Union troops who had been gathered in this area suffered heavy casualties. As soon as the shelling ended, the Central Army of the Ming Dynasty, who had been waiting for a long time, crossed the river with a scattered tide of ice, like a sharp steel knife, cutting into the middle gap where the European Union was blown up.

Although the European Union at that time had been equipped with a large number of muskets and a large number of artillery, they were all primitive and backward flintlocks and borebore guns. Therefore, in essence, the European Union was a completely cold weapon army. The cold weapon army had one of the most prominent characteristics, that is, it was that it relied heavily on the integrity of the formation. Once a local formation was disrupted, the riots would quickly affect the entire army, and then the huge army would collapse in a very short time like an avalanche.

The million European coalition forces seemed powerful, but in fact they were a cold weapon army. They had complex components, and they came from more than a dozen different European countries. They lacked tacit understanding, lack of coordination, different training levels, different equipment levels, and different combat will. Therefore, when the central route of the coalition forces was broken through by the Ming Central Army, the entire formation quickly collapsed.

After the Danube defeat, European countries completely lost their ability to resist.

Since then, Li Dingxi's northern army and Tang Hao's southern army are like two big iron clamps of crabs, one south and one north, and one north, facing Paris!

Two months later, the two armies of north and south successfully joined the city of Paris.

Three days later, the French Empire Emperor Louis XIV announced his surrender. At this point, the Central Army of the Ming Dynasty completely conquered the European continent. More than 40 million white people in the European continent completely became slaves to the Han people. Although the British islands that were alone overseas were still surviving, they were like grasshoppers after autumn, which had been leaping for a few days. Just wait for the situation on the European continent to stabilize, the Central Army could destroy it with its hands.

In the next few decades, all white men in the European continent were castrated and sent to the Ming Empire as laborers. A large number of Han men flocked to the European continent and married white women here as wives and concubines. There were also mixed-race children of yellow and white people in the Han people. Although they were mixed-race children, they were completely Han people because they spoke Chinese, learned Chinese, and wore Hanfu! Moreover, because their paternal bloodline was Han people!
