New Empire at the End of Ming Dynasty - Chapter 1083

After the naval battle in Java, the Chinese army gained the sea power in the Pacific region. It can be said that their naval fleet is almost invincible.

After that, the Chinese Army officially formed the second son legion, the so-called second son legion, which is the Legion joined by all the second sons of the royal family, princes and nobles, and then led their fleet to expedition to America.

At this time, the Chinese Empire had long known the existence of America and the Spanish Empire, which brought back a large amount of gold and silver from here every year.

But in today’s world, no one understands the value and status of America like the Chinese Empire and the great emperor Liu bu.

However, Liu Bu knew the status of this land very well and its great value, but he endured it until they freed up their hands, which was the official use of troops on this land.

The Chinese Empire did not treat this land like the Western powers such as the Spanish Empire. These countries just wanted to plunder the gold, silver, treasures and various resources in this area, or they regarded them as places for prisoners.

In future generations, it is called the lighthouse country, the country of hope, and the last hope of mankind. In fact, this is nonsense at all. When Europeans first found it, they just regarded it as an area for plundering resources and an area for exiled prisoners.

But before the Chinese Empire sent troops, it had clearly defined this place as a royal autonomous region.

The so-called Royal autonomous region is the Royal territory of the Chinese Empire. It is not under the control of the imperial court, but granted to many princes under their names.

Liu Yuanqiao, the great emperor of Han Dynasty, was a decisive man. No matter what was in his hands, he would quickly make a decision and make good arrangements.

But one thing still made him very headache and difficult to make a decision, that is the arrangement of the princes of the Chinese Empire.

As a royal family, that is, the most distinguished group of people in this country, it is certainly impossible to be treated unfairly and wronged, but how to give preferential treatment is another problem.

In history, the best treatment for the royal family was naturally the enfeoffment system. In the past 2000 years, four dynasties implemented the enfeoffment system.

But the enfeoffed king was very difficult to do, and finally destroyed the country. Even the fourth enfeoffed Dynasty, Daming, actually perished in the enfeoffment system.

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted his son to defend the country’s borders, but he never thought that Zhu Di would start a riot after his death and overthrow the rule of his grandson.

After that, Zhu Di cut the vassal on a large scale, which shows that the enfeoffment system is inappropriate, because if he does not cut the vassal, it is estimated that there will be another Jingnan rebellion in a few decades.

Since then, although he still maintained the enfeoffment system, in fact, it has deteriorated. That is, he raised the royal children as pigs. This way of raising princes in captivity is not what Liu Yuanqiao wanted to see.

Although this can make their children and grandchildren live a noble life, it also puts an extremely heavy burden on the country. The demise of the Ming Dynasty is actually the total financial collapse, and the Royal expenditure accounts for more than 30% of its total expenditure. The heavy Royal expenditure is the main reason for the collapse of the Ming economy.

So even Liu Yuanqiao couldn’t find any useful and effective way to solve this matter. He had been dragging on and wanted to find a way to get the best of both worlds. He thought God would give him time, but he didn’t expect him to abdicate so soon.

After Liu Bu takes over, they will all face the same problem. The children born to his father must be given preferential treatment. For example, the daughters born to him are OK. It’s OK to find a good family with a good dowry, but it’s impossible for these princes to treat them like this.

Liu Bu himself also has many sons. Is Liu Bu so eccentric that he leaves all his family property to his eldest son and nothing else? This is the difficulty of a father.

After synthesizing various ideas, Liu Bu wanted to focus on America.

America is a rich place and a distant place. If the prince is granted here, they can not only master military power and political power, but also claim the king. It is the greatest treatment. This is the real king.

It took them nearly a year to go back and forth across the Pacific Ocean. It was not easy for them to rebel, nor could they bring down the central dynasty.

If you send your son far away and only see him once a few years, it is actually the system of Daming. They all meet once every three years. There is little difference between the two.

Besides, Tianjia has no family affection and only cares about interests.

Moreover, Liu bu also knows that America is a paradise. If the Chinese Empire does not control him, it will become his great enemy in the future. In his original history, that place has become the center of the world and the world pattern.

So Liu Bu decided to send a powerful fleet to fight down this place. After fighting down, he decided to divide his brothers and sons into this place. Let them fight and make things better as they like.

At this time, the Mayflower has arrived here for more than 30 years.

Every year, a large number of ships cross the Atlantic and arrive in America for colonization and development.

However, these are all organized by individuals or groups, and have not been developed at the national level. Moreover, these people develop on their own. Whoever circles the territory will own it, and then develop freely and savagely.

The Chinese Empire sent its generals, fleets and elite troops to occupy it. After the unified occupation, the royal family decided how to divide it.

Anyway, this area is allocated to the royal family. It is up to the royal family to decide how to allocate it to the princes and arrange it as their territory so that their descendants can reproduce here.

This is the best way Liu Bu can think of. Originally, he wanted to put these Royal autonomous regions in Nanyang or southwest, but it will always pose a threat to the Chinese Empire and can not guarantee the absolute strength of the subject, so he chose this way.

Whether this way is perfect or not, we have to wait for the verification of time. Anyway, what Liu Bu can do is to solve these things with his best efforts.

In this era, even the best emperors and politicians can only ensure that they can implement their will when they are in power. It’s hard to say what will happen after people die. The death of politics and people is the biggest feature of politics in this era. Liu Buhe’s the best way to ensure peace and stability for hundreds of years.

As for the future of America, whether it will develop into a country threatening the existence of the Chinese empire is not what he can consider. Even then, it should be that his children and grandchildren are in power, and their meat is rotten in the pot, and their children and grandchildren have their own blessings.

After 20 years as emperor, Liu Bu has made the national strength of the Chinese Empire the most powerful. In terms of the size of the land, it can almost be compared with the Dayuan empire in history.

In fact, the Dayuan empire in history also included his four major Khanate States, while the Chinese Empire did not have the theory of four major Khanate States and enfeoffment states. All belonged to the Chinese Empire and were divided under its main body.

This is a unified, centralized super empire.

Liu bu also did the same thing. He was a super emperor. After 20 years as emperor and completing the 30 plan, he announced his abdication and passed the throne to his son Liu to grow up.

The news is very sudden. Liu Bu is only 62 years old, because he keeps exercising for a long time, maintains himself properly, is strong, and maintains his body very well. Judging from his spirit, he will have no problem even if he works for another 20 years.

But it was 20 years after Liu Bu ascended the throne that he suddenly announced his abdication and passed the throne to his son.

If it is another emperor, others are afraid that the crown prince will launch a coup, imprison the emperor and force the emperor to abdicate. Liu Bu is different. When he is most powerful and prosperous, he will abdicate the throne, and then travel around the world with several imperial concubines to see the great rivers and mountains he has made.

Moreover, Liu Bu’s abdication is not greasy, or what the emperor manipulated behind the scenes.

After announcing his abdication, he retreated to the end and completely handed over his power. Then he didn’t live in the palace. Instead, he swam around the world under the protection of the guard and accompanied by his relatives.

After being emperor for 20 years, Emperor Weihe officially abdicated to his eldest son. The new emperor’s year is Yonghe.

Liu grew up to be the grandson of the emperor at the age of three, was established as the prince at the age of 18, and officially became the emperor at the age of 38. He is the third generation emperor of the Empire.

Under the cultivation of his father, he became a very qualified successor. He once served as a sergeant in the army for three years, and served in the Navy for a long time. He served as a soldier for nearly seven years, at least a general and a battleship commander.

When Weihe was ten years old, he was transferred back to the Navy Department by his father and became the director of the operation Department of the Navy headquarters. He spent five years here. After becoming the deputy chief of general staff of the Shanghai army, the emperor officially established Prince Zhan’s office for him, made a series of supporting personnel for him, and formally participated in the management of the government.

Before Liu Bu announced his abdication, the prince had been involved in the government for nearly five years. Many people believed that the emperor’s training of him must be qualified and will last for a long time.

Who knows that the emperor announced his abdication so soon, gave all his rights unreservedly to his son, and his son took over the throne, while he went natural and unrestrained.

After 20 years of ups and downs, the Weihe era officially ended and entered the Yonghe era.
