Valley Emperor - v2 Chapter 2178

The United Kingdom of Spain and Portugal is closely followed by the Kingdom of England.

After hearing the news, the English royal family, who was still in the civil war, almost contacted the Tang Empire at the same time as the Spaniards. At most, it was only a few days later.

At first, they found that the Tang people wanted to colonize Africa, and the places they wanted to go were similar to those of the Spaniards, all belonging to the Luanda area.

However, after the Spaniards chose to be in the south of Luanda City, they could only choose to be in the north of Luanda City.

In fact, the English originally wanted to go to the Gulf of Guinea area, such as the western part of Ghana controlled by the Tang Dynasty, but the eastern part of Ghana is the West African province of the Tatars.

Although there is a Datang-controlled area of ​​Ghana in the middle, the Datang-controlled area of ​​Ghana is also limited to the coast, and does not care about the inland.

If the English rush to western Ghana, the Tatars will bypass the Great Tang Ghana in minutes, and then directly block the English colony of western Ghana on land.

By then the place will be a dead place.

They don’t have the guts to be neighbors with the Tatars. In this case, if they want to go to a slightly better place, then they can only be neighbors with the Spaniards.

After the English obtained the permission of the Tang Dynasty, they could not wait to send people to go south to Africa. The time was pressing, and they needed to establish a coastal port colony city as soon as possible, and then expand in the coastal areas based on this, and finally penetrate into the inland.

After Spain, Portugal, the United Kingdom and England started, other countries could not sit still. If it was late, they would have no place.

Africa seems to be very big, and the Datang Empire is also very generous in putting all the places on the table except for the existing coastal control areas. You like to go there.

However, there are actually very few places that can really allow foreigners to gain a foothold. For example, on the western coast, only the areas around Luanda, the Gulf of Guinea and Cape Verde are more suitable.

There are more suitable places on the east coast of Africa, but there are also many countries to go to. The 12 Southeast Asian countries have already robbed all of Central Africa, and the six Ottoman countries have occupied the southern coast of the Red Sea.

The remaining places are the Somali region and the other side of Mada Island, which is the eastern coast of Africa along the Mozambique Channel.

How to say, the more suitable places to stay are limited, if you go late, you won’t have any share.

Of course, it does not mean that there is no place to go late. The Datang Empire is an empire of benevolence and righteousness. Nice place.

Everyone can think of this kind of thing, but after seeing the Tatars, the United Kingdom of Spain, Portugal, and the Kingdom of England occupying several good places on the west coast, other countries couldn’t help it, and they hurriedly found the Tang Dynasty and said that to colonize Africa.

It doesn’t matter how many people can be sent and how many can be developed, but anyway, let’s grab the foothold first.

As a result, the diplomats in the consulates of the Tang Empire in Europe began to get busy, writing and drawing on the African map with a group of indigenous envoys to confirm the African colonies of the indigenous kingdoms.

And many people are also sensitive to know that although the Datang people have clearly divided the coastal footholds for countries, they do not care how the inland is divided.

This means that expansion can follow, and it also means war!

There are too many things involved here, enough for these indigenous countries to choose their foothold in Africa with great care.

Not only these indigenous countries are cautious, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Empire is also very cautious about this. A large number of telegrams are sent back to Jinling from Europe, West Asia, India and other regions every day.

A group of officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are looking at the map of Africa every day, holding the data of each country to analyze, and then determine the allocation of different countries to different regions.

There are many factors that need to be considered, the relationship between the native country and the empire now, the relationship between the empire and the empire in the future, their current strength, future development potential, the country’s relationship with other countries, and so on.

These all require careful analysis.

Finally, the specific destination of each country will be gradually determined.

Just like the destination of the Tatars before, the Tatars may think that this is the final choice under their comprehensive selection, but in fact, the Tang Empire has determined that the destination of the Tatars will be the Gulf of Guinea from the very beginning.

To put it bluntly, where they can go is determined by the empire, and they cannot decide on their own.

This is true of the Tatars, and the same is true of other countries.

Why were the Spaniards able to go to the southern part of Luanda, one of the most suitable places for initial colonization in West Africa, and close to South Africa, a large area of ​​control of the empire.

There are three main reasons why the Spaniards can go here, one is that the Tatars cannot come here, the second is that the Spanish princess Elizabeth is one of the concubines of the Son of God, and the most important thing is that she also gave birth to the son of the Son of God. .

Among the many concubines of different races, she was the only one who gave birth to a prince for the Son of Heaven and obtained the title of concubine.

In addition, Elizabeth also has the right to inherit the kingdom of Spain.

This also means that the nineteenth son of the emperor also has the right to inherit the kingdom of Spain.

The existence of Elizabeth and the nineteenth son of the emperor inevitably affected the attitude of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs towards the Kingdom of Spain.

At the same time, why did the English go to the north of Luanda? People from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs believed that after the Kingdom of Spain arrived in the south of Luanda, they would not be able to dominate, but had to have an opponent who could contain them.

In addition to the Tatars, the only suitable place in Europe for the time being is the Kingdom of England.

The Kingdom of England itself is not really that powerful, but its internal royal family and people are more aggressive in external expansion, especially colonial expansion, and have great potential for development.

The arrangements of Spain and England were arranged by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and most of the arrangements of other countries were under similar considerations.

For example, the Kingdom of Sweden in northern Europe ~www.mtlnovel.com~ The Ministry of Foreign Affairs plans to arrange them to the south of the Kingdom of Denmark. On the one hand, the Kingdom of Sweden and the Kingdom of Denmark are mortal enemies, and on the other hand, the army of the Kingdom of Sweden is the earliest in Europe. A group of people who have completed the modernization reform and have good combat effectiveness. When the Tatars moved eastward, they suffered a great loss under the army of the Kingdom of Sweden.

Well, the Europeans in Germany were all over, the Austrian dynasty was over, and then France was over, and the Kingdom of Denmark also lost their peninsula, but the Kingdom of Sweden still controlled the Nordic region.

The Tatars couldn’t even take down Finland, and they suffered losses at the hands of the Kingdom of Sweden in some subsequent battles.

People from the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs believed that if the Kingdom of Sweden was thrown to the west of Ghana, south of the Kingdom of Denmark, they should be able to resist the expansion of the Tartars.

Most of the footholds of other countries also have this or that consideration.

However, this kind of consideration is still at a very superficial level, because the top officials of the empire don’t really care about the situation of the indigenous people of various countries after they immigrated to Africa, as long as there is no big country in Africa in the future, and then come out to confront Empire, then the empire does not matter.
