It's the last day of June, do you guys still have monthly passes?

Palace of Versailles, Apollo Room.

"Your Excellency, Minister and Ambassador, you must have read a novel called "The Legend of Three Kingdoms", right? The confrontation between the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu in this novel is very similar to the situation in the world today.

Like! Although there are more than three countries in the world today, there are only three powerful countries that can truly be called world empires, namely the Frank Empire, the Mongol Empire and the Ming Empire. Among the three world empires, the most powerful

It is undoubtedly the Ming Empire...it can definitely be compared to the Wei Empire in "The Legend of Three Kingdoms"!

Now, the Ming Dynasty dominates the entire Pacific Ocean, monopolizing the East Asian continent and the southern continent. It also rules the peninsula and countless islands between the two continents. It even extended its black hands by conquering the Shangfang Kingdom and supporting the Aztec Kingdom.

Arrived in the New World! Recently, the Ming Dynasty also successfully extended its evil tentacles into the American Dominion on the Atlantic coast by provoking conflicts between the Aztecs and the New England Dominion!

In the Mongolian Ocean, the Ming Empire was equally aggressive. Not only did the Ming Dynasty own the two vassal states of Upper and Lower Burma, but it also fostered a chartered Indian trading company... This so-called company not only owned Chittagong, but also Calcutta in West Bengal.

The free city even controls the domestic politics of the Hindustan Empire to a certain extent. The existence of the explicitly chartered Indian Trading Company has seriously threatened the dominance of the Mongols in India!

In addition, driven by the Ming Empire and the Ming Indian Trading Company, a so-called Eastern Alliance including the Ottoman Empire, the Safavid Empire (Persia), the Sultanate of Oman, the Sultanate of Morocco and the Hindustan Empire has been fully formed...

...Under the control of the Ming Dynasty, this alliance has now become the common enemy of our two countries, and is gaining the strength to compete with Mongolia for the dominance of the Indian Ocean.

Therefore, the situation is now very clear. Our Frank Empire and your Great Mongolia must unite to form a grand alliance similar to the Wu-Shu Alliance to jointly fight against the Ming Dynasty similar to the Wei Empire. Only in this way, the Frank Empire and the Great Mongolia

Only in this way can all countries defend their respective interests in the future, while protecting the world from being ruled by the evil Ming Empire!

Our two countries must not repeat the mistakes of the battle between Wu, Shu and Jingzhou, otherwise we will be enslaved by the Ming Dynasty sooner or later!"

The person who was talking about the Three Kingdoms in French was the Foreign Minister of the Frank Empire, Hugo Leonard, and the people who were listening to him talking about the Three Kingdoms were the Frankish Emperor Louis, Pope Urban IX, and the Minister of the Mongolian Imperial Envoy Soetu.

, Longkodo, the Mongolian ambassador to Versailles.

With the rise of the Ming Dynasty and the spread of Eastern "magic" in the West, the four famous works of the Ming Dynasty (Three Kingdoms, Journey to the West, Water Margin, and Jin Ping Mei) also began to have many readers in Europe. Among them, "Three Kingdoms" and "The Three Kingdoms" spread Eastern strategies.

"The Plum in the Golden Vase", which depicts the decadent lifestyle of the East, is the most popular... By reading "Three Kingdoms", a group of Western politicians who play power games in the West have opened their eyes. It turns out that the strategy and machinations of the East are as brilliant as their magic.

!

After studying "Three Kingdoms", of course Louis the Great wanted to learn from others to make a difference! And he quickly identified the position of the Frank Empire, which of course was Soochow! On the one hand, Sun Quan, the emperor of Soochow, was red-haired

He has blue eyes, and Louis has blond hair and blue eyes... they look almost the same!

On the other hand, there is still room for cooperation between Soochow Wu and Cao Wei, while Shu Han and Cao Wei are incompatible with each other. This is very similar to the relationship between France and Mongolia and the Ming Empire.

However, after all, there is a "Jingzhou dispute" between Soochow and Shu Han, while there is no similar disputed area between the Franks and Mongolia... Oh, maybe Black Africa is a potential dispute between the two sides. But Black Africa and Jingzhou

It is completely incomparable. The latter is too important to Wu and Shu. Black Africa is just a barbaric and disease-ridden land. To the Franks and Mongolia, its value is only a supply station and a supply station on the east-west route.

Black slave production areas and supply depots only need a few key "points" and do not need to occupy large areas of land.

Black slaves were mainly purchased from black people, rather than being caught by white gentlemen in person, so they did not need to occupy large areas of black African land. Moreover, the cost of purchasing black slaves was very low, because at that time many black African tribes were still using shells as food.

Currency...you can exchange the shells left over from the seafood eaten by Europeans for black slaves. Who would catch them?

Therefore, the "Wu-Shu relationship" between Frank and Mongolia should be consolidated!

"What the French Emperor said is absolutely true, and my Great Khan means the same thing. Our two countries should form a friendship between Wu and Shu, then cultivate virtue internally, secure the vassals externally, unite other countries, and besiege the Ming Dynasty... Just wait until the Ming Dynasty has

If you change, you can divide your troops into two groups and quell the violence."

Of course, Suo'etu was also a strategist who was familiar with the Three Kingdoms, and naturally fully agreed with the opinions of "French Sun Quan", and "joining forces with France to trap the Ming Dynasty" was also the national policy of the Great Mongolia.

"Your Majesty," Soetou continued, "According to the wishes of my Great Khan, today's Great Mongolia and the Frankish Kingdom, plus the countries in the North Atlantic Alliance, have a huge impact on population, production, land, military strength, etc.

, it is still far better than the Ming Dynasty, ASEAN, and the Aztecs. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty has not formed alliances with other countries, so it has no real friends in the world. As long as we unite to trap the Ming Dynasty, it will not take more than a hundred years.

, the national power of the Ming Dynasty will inevitably weaken, and the so-called dynasty will also fall apart. By then, our two families will be able to destroy the Ming Dynasty together and divide its land equally!"

Longkodo, who came with him, added: "Emperor, I, the Great Mongolia, only want to regain Mongolia, the homeland of the Qing Dynasty, all Southeast Asia, the Southeast Peninsula, the Southern Continent, the New World, and the land of Japan, all of which can be returned to the Franks and the North Atlantic.

All the alliance countries own it. I, the Great Mongolia, will not take any cents from it!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The words of the two were translated into French by the on-site translator, and Louis the Great, Urban IX and Hugo Leonard all nodded.

Urban IX said: "Emperor, Your Excellency the Minister, Your Excellency the Ambassador, I suggest that Frank and Great Mongolia sign a formal alliance to replace the original secret treaty... Frank and Great Mongolia must make peace with each other.

The entire world realizes that they have united to fight against the ambitions of the Ming Empire for the entire world. I believe that this alliance will definitely be able to contain the isolated and helpless Ming Dynasty in the future and create a bright future for the entire world!"

Hugo Leonard also said: "His Majesty the Pope is right... The world structure is now relatively stable. Even if Frank and Mongolia made an alliance to contain the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty would not dare to

Destroy the stability of the world. Because that will definitely lead to opposition from the whole world!"

The secret agreement between Frank and Great Mongolia was signed in order to share more benefits in the feast of the three-part world. There are also similar secret agreements between Frank and Daming, Great Mongolia and Ming... After all, brothers, Ming

Let's settle the score!

But now, the three-point world has been completed, and a three-legged world pattern has emerged.

In this situation, the weaker two among the three legs must form an alliance... and the strongest among the three legs, when all three aspects are completely rational, it is impossible to form an alliance with the two "

One leg of the "weak leg" forms an alliance against the other.

And when the strength of the strongest leg is rising steadily, and the rising speed is faster than, or at least equal to, the other two legs, the three-legged pattern is quite stable. Because the stronger leg will think that time is on its side, and there is no need to take risks.

Wage a war whose outcome is uncertain.

Therefore, in this situation, the weak two sides can form an alliance with confidence and boldness, without having to worry about being beaten by the strong - the strong who are on the rapid rise in strength are not afraid of the alliance of the weak at all, and do not bother to make alliances with the weak.

Alliance. The current Ming Dynasty is like this, so Ming Dynasty only supports ASEAN and the Aztecs, but does not form an alliance with them.

Only when the strongest foot shows signs of decline or lack of growth, and is likely to lose its strongest position, will it take action to attack the two weak feet... And the two weak feet are shaken in this position of the strong foot, but

Before losing the status of the strong one, one must be extra cautious to avoid irritating the strong one and becoming the first choice to be beaten. In this case, the two weaklings dare not openly form an alliance.

Of course, both Suo'etu and Longkodo knew that it was time for Frank and Mongolia to form an alliance... If they did not form an alliance, Frank and Mongolia would be defeated by the Ming Dynasty one by one!

By forming an alliance, you can use your size advantage to frighten Ming Dynasty in order to gain time and opportunities for development and growth!

However, the interests between Great Mongolia and the Franks are not completely consistent. Although there is no "Jingzhou dispute" between them, there are two potential points of conflict between the Ottoman Empire and the Rakshasa Empire.

Soetu nodded and said: "Your Majesty, the French Emperor, my Great Khan has always hoped to conclude an alliance that is beneficial to both of us! But this Ottoman Empire..."

Although what he said was not complete, how could Emperor Louis not understand it?

"Now is not the time to go to war with the Ottoman Empire," said Louis the Great. "It is impossible to go to war within ten years... Only when the Suez Canal is completely completed will war be possible!"

"The canal..." Suo'etu asked.

Even a fool can see the importance of this canal! What’s more, Mongolia has now moved towards the ocean and has become the master of the Mongolian Ocean!

"Of course it is joint management between the two countries!" Emperor Louis the Great immediately gave the answer Souetu wanted, "However, the provisions regarding the Ottoman Empire's war and post-war profit distribution can only exist as secret provisions of the alliance treaty between the two countries.

.”

Soetou laughed and said: "Of course... otherwise the Suez Canal would not be dug!"

Seeing Soetu burst out laughing, Emperor Louis the Great, Urban IX and Hugo Lionel also smiled with success. Because they all knew that the "Frankish-Great Mongol Alliance" had almost been formed.

From now on, Frank will be able to lead the North Atlantic Alliance with one hand and Mongolia with the other to fight the cold war with the isolated and helpless Great Tomorrow.

Although the Ming Dynasty is powerful, its population, land, and economy are still weaker than the North Atlantic Alliance and Great Mongolia combined. It may have certain military advantages, but the long distance and the Ming Dynasty's population of less than 100 million are doomed.

There will be no real world war in the next hundred years.

And a hundred years later...can the Ming Dynasty still maintain its military advantage?

...

"Hahaha... I, the Ming Dynasty, am invincible in the world!"

The one who shouted this cheer was, of course, the Grand Duke and Emperor Zhu Heji of the Ming Dynasty!

The reason why he felt that the world was invincible was that the news that Zhu Celing was elected as the commander-in-chief of the Dominion of America came from the east and west directions at almost the same time.

Unlike what Louis and Kangxi imagined, Zhu Heji never took the Franks and Mongolia seriously. In Zhu Heji's mind, there were only three countries that could really threaten the domineering power of the Ming Dynasty. They were

The British Empire, the United States of America and the magical South Asian country India!

After all, the British Empire and the United States of America both dominated the world for a long time in their original history, and India... has long been favored by the world and must not be underestimated!

Now the British Empire seems to be in ruins... Historically, the rise of the British Empire relied on Europe's offshore balance and colonial rule of India. Now the balance of Europe has ceased to exist because of the rise of Frank. In the face of unification

With France and Germany and Italy completely on the side of the Franks (perhaps it will also be unified in the future), the space for Britain to play is already very small.

In addition, India under the rule of the Mongols cannot be conquered by the British... and the Frankish Empire will not allow the British to conquer India, so the British Empire will not appear.

And America...the possibility of a French-speaking white Indian nation emerging as the United States of America?

All I can say is it’s difficult!

Because even the sovereignty of English-speaking America was deprived by the Frank Empire, how could it still rise?

This is not a standing, iron-clad America, but an America kneeling in front of the Franks, the Yin Khanate and the Aztec Kingdom... And the Franks, the Yin Khanate, the Aztec Kingdom

The Kingdom of Croatia will definitely draw further benefits from the kneeling United States in the future.

Frank can force "Indian America" ​​to speak French now, but will not be able to force those Protestants and Puritans to convert to Catholicism in the future?

The Aztecs and the Yin family can turn Americans into Indian Americans now, but in the future they will not be able to spread the Holy Religion and promote the business language, Yin family language and Aztec language in the United States?

How can a country with chaos in its national identity, language, and religious beliefs become the chosen country?

Therefore, the only country that can threaten the Ming Dynasty in the future is the Great India ruled by Kangxi Khan! Although there is not yet a unified Great India, Zhu Heji knows that there is a unified Great Mongolia.
