Chapter 966: Dilemma

It's the depths of winter, and the wind blowing from the sea is bone-chilling.

It's just that in Dick's eyes, this kind of coldness is far less cold than the cold in the eyes of the emperor in front of him.

In the past, the Great Chongqing Kingdom was a foreign term to him, and like all other lands outside Europe, he believed that it was inhabited by a group of uncivilized natives, and it was not until the unprecedented defeat of the British in Asia that the name of the country appeared frequently in the parliament.

After the two scholars of the Great Chongqing Kingdom came to Britain, their concepts were subverted again, and it was clear that this Great Chongqing Kingdom was not the one they had come into contact with other barbarian civilizations.

Because of this, there are now different voices in the British Parliament, some members of the parliament advocate establishing contacts with the Great Chongqing State, developing business contacts, and exchanging science with each other, but most of the members are still afraid of the rise of the Great Chongqing State.

He understood that the rise of the Great Yu Kingdom would inevitably harm the interests of some large families, because both British India and Australia had vested interests, and these vested interests would not watch their wealth being seized by the Great Yu State.

This joint operation was initiated by vested interests, who came from three countries, but with the same goal, to disarm the naval power of the Great Chongqing State.

But now he has screwed everything, and in this big gamble, they have lost the naval power of Asia.

"Your Majesty, I will tell you the truth if you want to know anything, I just hope you don't kill me." Dick prayed that he had a good life in England, a beautiful wife and lovely children, and that he was not willing to die at the thought of them.

Wilson gave a look of disdain and angrily rebuked, "You politicians are soft bones, disgusting. ”

"Come on, it's the ignorance of these hardliners that led to this war, and you are responsible for the failure of the war." Dick was furious, and equally angry.

Xiao Ming's eyes roamed back and forth between Wilson and Dick, he preferred to deal with politicians than soldiers, because politicians, although cunning, knew how to compromise better than soldiers, of course, this was when dealing with enemies.

"You can continue to quarrel when you go back to prison, now it's time to talk about your country, what did the two traitors from the Great Yu Kingdom bring to you?" Xiao Ming gritted his teeth and said, he has been letting the secret guards plan to assassinate these rebels, but because the difference in appearance is too big, the secret guards can't send people to approach them.

The status of the Chinese living in Britain was very low in this era, basically no different from black slaves, and they would be strictly regulated.

"Your Majesty is talking about Fei Anyi, Fan Hongcai?"

"It's just the two of them." Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed, he needed to grasp the current information of the United Kingdom.

Dick pondered for a moment, and he said reverently: "I have to say that the two of them are indeed excellent talents, whether in physics or chemistry, they have provided Britain with a large number of mature scientific and technological achievements, and these results have been verified to be feasible, and Britain is undergoing drastic scientific changes because of their contributions, and now the talents of the whole of Britain are concentrated in London, and many people believe that Britain will soon make a huge leap in science and technology."

When he spoke, Dick always looked at Xiao Ming's expression, and what worried him was that the emperor's expression never changed, and he remained always calm.

The reason why he said this was to intimidate the emperor, because the whole of Britain believed that these two talents were the top talents of the Great Chongqing Kingdom, and their contribution of knowledge would allow the British to quickly catch up with the current technological level of the Great Chongqing Kingdom, and this was enough to make the Great Chongqing Kingdom jealous.

However, after seeing Xiao Ming so calm, Dick decided to increase the weight, and he emphasized with the mouth of a politician: "The Great Chongqing Kingdom now has things and theories that Britain has, although this needs to be realized by British scientists one by one, but it is only a matter of time at present, so I hope Your Majesty can reconsider the current relationship with the United Kingdom, and I am willing to become a bridge of friendship between the Great Chongqing Kingdom and the United Kingdom." ”

Xiao Ming listened quietly, and when he got here, he showed a mocking smile, "Are you threatening me?" ”

Dick said in horror: "Your Majesty, I am only a prisoner under your command now, how dare I do this?" I'm just stating the facts, there is one thing Your Majesty may not understand, in fact, the royal families in Europe have been intermarrying each other for thousands of years, strictly speaking, whether it is England, or France, or even Tsarist Russia, the rulers have some blood ties with each other, and if they face a strong enemy, the countries of Europe will unite again, just as they have united twice in history against the nomads from the East. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ming laughed out loud, this Dick is afraid of death, but I have to say that he is very smart, and what he said is basically the truth, the European bloodline theory has always occupied a very high position, and in the contemporary World War I was actually fought between a group of relatives, which is somewhat similar to the contemporary Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, although the fight was alive and dead, but the royal marriage prevailed.

Dick said this, obviously wanting to create a shock in his heart, so as to achieve the goal of making Xiao Ming deal with him carefully.

However, this trick is useless for Xiao Ming, and Dick's words may become true, but this needs to be based on his large-scale attack on Europe.

It's just that attacking the European mainland is not in Xiao Ming's plan at present, because the European continent is too far away from Dayu, and the Suez Canal has not been built, so if you want to go from Dayu to Europe, you need to start from Dayu through Malacca, and then arrive at the Cape of Good Hope in Africa, and go north along the African continent.

And the entire voyage adds up to more than 30,000 kilometers, almost a circle around the earth, after all, the route is not a straight line, and it also needs to sail along the continent to replenish.

In this way, it takes half a year to go to Europe once, and another half a year to come back.

Attacking Europe is not a problem that can be solved by tens of thousands of people, and the large-scale use of troops in such a distant place is simply an unprecedented drain on national strength.

In the Battle of Tsushima in the Russo-Japanese War, Tsarist Russia sent the Baltic Fleet to the Far East battlefield, and after more than 200 days of sailing, the fleet sent by Tsarist Russia was annihilated by the Japanese fleet that was waiting for work.

The wars waged by the United States in Asia were all maintained by using Japan as a supply base after the defeat, but even then they mostly ended in failure.

After weighing many factors, Xiao Ming's final plan was to expand the colonies layer by layer like Europe, and expand his power based on the colonies.

When his fleet was able to be resupplied along the way, it was possible to engage in a hot war with the European countries on their own soil.

Before, all he could do was to fight for the colonies, as for this problem, European countries are estimated to see very clearly after this naval battle, they are unable to attack the Great Chongqing State, and the Great Chongqing State is also unable to attack them.

In the future, fierce competition between the two sides will be carried out in the colony.
