Chapter 277 Come and make peace
Next to the octagonal well, the vines of several grapes are entangled and climbed up the whole yard along the bamboo frame. The wide grape leaves are like a small pu fan, blocking Lie Yu and bringing a piece of green shade.
The sea breeze sweeping the peninsula from Dalian Bay poured into the old house of the Li family with a little fishy smell, and also brought a trace of coolness to Master Li, who was hiding under the grape rack and lying in the rocking chair on vacation in the morning.
"Why don't you go on vacation in Hokkaido?"
Slow breeze, but he couldn't satisfy Master Li. He soon remembered the picturesque Hokkaido with a perennial temperature of more than ten degrees. However, as soon as this idea came up, he had no choice but to smile bitterly. Since the last attack, now the government office and the general ginseng are about to ban him as a panda. A few days ago, they took an airship to watch. Li Enfu, who was almost stopped by the news, was dragged down by the airship.
Not to mention going to Hokkaido, which is not completely stable at this moment, even if you walk a few times on the street, it is estimated that Du Dazhuang will also pull up the thousands of people who have been expanded into a guard camp.
Oh, I have no choice!
I don't know when this day will come to an end. Now, except for the small island where birds can't be seen in the Ogasawara Islands, Master Li's access is more strictly confidential than that of the stars and bigwigs in later generations. If the technical factors are put aside, it is estimated that it is comparable to the President of the United States in later generations.
To be heartfelt, every modern man who returns to this world will not really like this kind of life except that he can use knowledge to make money and enjoy the hidden desires of three wives and four concubines.
Although it was cool to be a leader and change history, the sequelae almost made him crazy, who was used to walking on the street, bathed in the eyes of sunshine and jealousy, holding a beautiful wife, wandering around, and deliberately appreciating those jealous eyes.
Of course, the craziest thing at this moment is not myself, not Japan, nor Uncle Sam, but the old mater.
The poor descendants of old Don Quixote, in order to block the mouth of leisure in China and relieve the pressure of the revolution, they packed and bought three determination-class and the My Wife at a price of two million pounds. It must also be said that they were exchanged for Luzon and the Pacific colonies. Even Master Li can't learn the ability to pretend to be fat. Up.
They underestimate the United States. Although the U.S. Navy has shrunk a lot after the Civil War and was almost cancelled at one time, it has changed a lot since it came to this world. The three Indiana class have all been in service, because the first two of the four of the Iowa class they have also been in service, and the last two have also entered service. Entered the water-rement stage.
The first of the four Chilsar-class battleships has also been on the ship. It can be said that the strong industrial capacity of the United States is breaking out little by little, but this kind of explosion is exactly what Li Mo wants to see, because only when the United States also participates in this competition can they change their path of economic development and force him to We consume resources to compete.
This is a dangerous road. After all, I am not qualified to compete with the United States at this moment. I can only make some money through Thomas. Fortunately, Spain took the initiative to run to my mouth, so I decided to get on four cruisers to Spain. Unexpectedly, this fallen aristocrat is still in history. Obviously, they underestimated the United States.
There is no doubt about who will win. At this moment, we can only see how much damage Spain can do to the United States, and we must prepare for our revenge for the United States after winning the war.
But now, it's time to enjoy the results of victory!
The Spaniards sent two million pounds, and William II spent 500,000 pounds for the airship. The French were not willing to lag behind. Although unlike Germany, which bought ready-made airships for Kyushu Island, it also cost 400,000 pounds. Italy, Austria-Hungary, and even the fallen Ottomans have also signed According to the procurement agreement, the airship alone will bring a net income of no less than two million in the next year, which is six times the total investment of the previous airship.
Fortunately, the new banknotes issued by the State Council itself, known as blue coins, have not yet been put into the market, and the sterling settlement system is still adopted. Otherwise, it is estimated that it will be a big trouble to convert so many national currencies into their own money.
Fifty tons of gold from Senso-ji Temple have been stored by the State Council. In addition, although the four ships are damaged, the main structure has not been damaged. The four battleships that have been towed into Ryukyu for repair and modified them. It can be said that most of the consumption prepared for this war has been made up!
Of course, this is not a rich Hokkaido, and the Japanese book that has been pinched in the palm of your hand.
However, the infiltration of Japan and neighboring North Korea will be a long process. Colonization alone is no longer possible in this year. Hokkaido is still because it reminds itself of the Xiayi people, a nation that few people know in later generations. In addition, there are fewer immigrants in Japan, so it is mainly economic control and military containment. The supplementary control plan has been put on the schedule.
North Korea is fine. After all, if their rebels lose their support, they will not become a climate at all. Therefore, after hearing that he is willing to support them to form a new regime, Jin Kainan has promised to exchange the mining rights of the Maoshan generation for himself, although the prospectors sent have not been able to accurately measure it. The reserves were set, but Li Mo knew that the largest open-pit iron ore in Asia had been pinched in the palm of his hand!
The total reserves of 3 billion tons, 1.3 billion tons of recoverable quantities, and a large number of poor North Korean workers who continue to work, so it only takes a year or two for the continuous flow of subway ore will become steel for construction and warships!
Li Enfu and others, who have seen Master Li's ability to encircle the land, have even decided that if they can really find a large iron mine, they will immediately extend a section from the current Fengtianjing Tonghua to Yanji railway to connect Maoshan and connect this large iron mine to the Northeast Economic Circle.
In addition to Maoshan Iron Mine, there is also the world's first magnesite in the northern mountains of North Korea, as well as non-ferrous metals such as tungsten and lead, and a large number of mineable coal resources. Therefore, in Li Mo's heart, North Korea will be a base for providing raw materials in the future.
Of course, except for the proximity of Maoshan Iron Mine, which is easy to mine and produce, which makes Master Li coveted, other resources are not enough compared with the rich three provinces of Northeast China. The reason why I stare at them is that I have completely learned the tricks of using others and their own reserves of the American emperors in later generations.
If the control of North Korea has been gradually in progress, then it has just begun. From today on, there will be a scene of tens of thousands of people crying in the Qingjin Strait at the beginning of Ryukyu. Except for 100,000 young adults who will be incorporated into the construction corps under the muzzle and bayonets, the rest will be driven back to the main island, and Li En The Fuhe State Council has already formulated a plan for gradual immigration.
Kyushu Island, Germany likes to do whatever. Shikoku Island has been regarded by the State Council as a base to support Xixiang Congdao to form a new policy axe. As for this island! Maybe it's not me who is most anxious now, but the United Kingdom and the United States!
Although the war between the two places is not over, Li Mo has made it clear that the full surrender of Japan is only a matter of time. After the troops stationed in the DPRK suddenly lost nearly 10,000 people in Incheon, the second and fourth divisions in charge of the direction of Yizhou have been fully launched, and even the North Korean army, which had no more than 10,000 people, was ordered to participate in this full-scale attack.
From Yizhou to the beginning, the whole North Ping'an Road and South Ping'an Road have been filled with rumbling cannons. With the help of 12 airships and Wildcat-type armored vehicles, the first division of the south front has advanced to Seoul, and the occupation of Seoul has been reached.
It's time to think about something else!
Li Mo's feet gently let the lounge chair shake slowly. A few rays of cyan grapes above his head kept zooming in his eyes, and the huge territory that had covered half of the Pacific Ocean in his mind.
From Luzon to Micronesia, from the Marshall Islands to Honolulu, then from Honolulu to Ryukyu, and finally from Hokkaido to the three northeastern provinces, if you draw a circle, the area has exceeded that of any dynasty in Chinese history, and all of this was done in just five years under the roar of the giant ship cannon. Of.
There is knowledge brought by later generations, as well as luck, and of course countless blood.
The vast land, more than 20 million people, the huge islands, and the sea borders covering a small half of the Pacific Ocean have made many people and countries jealous. It is estimated that those who want him to die can line up from Lushun to Ryukyu!
It's strange. Even Li Mo himself is a little afraid that such a large territory does not have a formal and powerful political axe, which is maintained by the army and a small government office attached to the Kingdom of Hawaii, which is undoubtedly playing with fire!
Yes, it's playing with fire!
Thinking about it many times, Li Mo couldn't help but be afraid. Although Zhao Long, Chen Ping and Li Enfu are trustworthy, who knows the others? In Luzon alone, in addition to the governor Zhong Wenyao, the State Council also sent hundreds of other officials, plus thousands of Chinese and Luzon officials recruited from the local area!
How many of them are perfunctory, how many are eating in the corpse, or how many hearts are really towards themselves?!
Now there is no Internet, no satellite phone, and no later generations that can quickly circle the earth by plane. Even if you take an airship, it will take at least five days from Honolulu to Luzon.
As early as the beginning of the design of Jinghai, he realized this problem and put forward strict speed requirements, but after all, warships are warships. Once something happens in these distant territories, even if more than 50 knots are built, it is difficult to really achieve rapid support.
So if you want to rule such a large territory, in addition to building and maintaining a large number of military bases, you need a strong and efficient political axe management agency.
But there is a premise in doing so, that is, the country must be established immediately!
In fact, this problem has troubled him for a long time. As early as the capture of the three northeastern provinces, the issue of the founding of the People's Republic of China has actually been lingering in his mind for a long time. Not to mention him, even Li Enfu and Yan Fu have talked to him about this matter alone.
Although they didn't say it clearly, they were actually anxious at the bottom of their hearts, but they were put on hold because they didn't open their mouths, but now this problem can't be put on hold!
As the old saying goes, the name is just right.
So at his instruction, while Tang Shaoyi put forward conditions to Germany, he also released the news of the founding of the People's Republic of China. This news has caused an uproar in the State Council. Almost everyone supports the founding of the People's Republic of China, but there has been a lot of quarrel about whether to really adopt the republican system.
But to everyone's surprise, at this critical moment, Li Mo suddenly was silent and locked himself in the general seng. He tried his best to supervise the war as if he had forgotten this matter, and Chen Ping strictly ordered anyone in the army to prohibit anyone in the army from discussing this matter.
Only a few people know that in fact, he is not silent and does not forget this event because he cares about the war, but is waiting for an opportunity.
This is the era when the country could be founded on the top of the mountain by relying on horses and soldiers to build a lot of people. What's more, he wants to build a country that can be immediately recognized by the international community and be regarded as a participant, not a spoiler!
And this is one of the most important chips to take this key step!
Germany has now succumbed to the Kyushu Island and the interests behind it, and the most important thing left is the United Kingdom and the United States!
"How will they choose for their own interests?" Li Mo narrowed his eyes, and as soon as an arc at the corner of his mouth cracked, he saw a shadow moving in front of him.
"Brother Li, what are you laughing at?"
She got up and looked at it. Fang Xianqi was already holding a pot of tea. She walked to her side, bent down and put the teacup on the coffee table on the side, and then smiled.
Her action made Master Li's eyes suddenly lit up.
The waterfall-like hair curled up in the back of the head, revealing a beautiful snow-white pink neck like a swan. There was no trace of powder on the gorgeous face, and a pair of diamond-like bright eyes under the willow eyebrows were shining.
The elegant short-sleeved flag suit makes the figure more attractive. At the same time, it also reveals two white and tender arms. A touch of bright red on the right wrist shines in the sun, which is the string of blood coral beads given to her at the beginning.
"Brother Li?"
Fang Xianqi held the teacup and saw Li Mo staring at the coral beads on her wrist in a daze. Her cheeks were not only slightly red, but also called in a low voice.
"I'm laughing. How do you do it yourself? Isn't there a maid? By the way, what about the Qiaoer?
"The little sister has been on the boat for a few days, and she is a little uncomfortable to rest. Yue'er is accompanying her." Fang Xianqi handed the teacup to Li Mo and sat down beside Li Mo under the cheongsam.
He took a sip of tea, and the corners of his eyes swept to the buttocks that looked more and more plump on the stool. He couldn't help feeling that the air was a little hot. He hurriedly poured tea into his throat and pressed the fire.
Fang Xianqi was just about to take the cup and prepare to pour another cup for him, but before her hand touched the edge of the cup, she was caught by Li Mo's right hand. Xianqi, your hands are so beautiful.
"There is no way." It was the first time to hear Li Mo praise herself for being good-looking. Fang Xianqi suddenly turned red in her neck. She lowered her head and said shyly, "It's all the beads sent by Brother Li."
Feeling the heat from the heart of her hand, Fang Xianqi's heartbeat became more and more intense. Although she was shy and wanted to pull it back, when she thought of Luo Sanniang, who had just came out, she suddenly leaned her body into Li Mo's arms.
After such a long time, Fang Xianqi has understood Li Mo's thoughts. Although she is her righteous wife, he has a little grudge against herself because of what happened to her father at the beginning.
As a woman, she doesn't know how to resolve that kind of estrangement, because it's a matter between men. All she knows is that she has been tied to this man in her life. Even if she waits for his whole life, she must wait.
Li Mo gently stroked his little hand, looked at the bright eyes, and suddenly found that he didn't cherish it too much. Isn't it because of Fang Boqian's status as a deserter? Now that history has been changed by itself, why stick to those pimples?
Beauty and delicious food is the king!
Looking at the rosy little mouth, when Li Mo was ready to go up and taste the delicious food, Fu Hai's voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard. Young master, Mr. Li, they are here.
Hearing the sound, Fang Xianqi quickly pulled back her little hand, blushed her face and quickly tidied up the corners of her clothes, which made Li Mo laugh secretly. Fortunately, there was no third pair of eyes here. Otherwise, she would have thought that Master Li was the kind of barren silver wolf who liked white silver.
"Go to make a pot of tea again."
"Hmm." Fang Xianqi nodded obediently and turned around to prepare immediately.
After a burst of laughter, Li Mo not only saw Li Enfu and Chen Ping, but also Yan Fu, Tang Shaoyi, Long Guozhang and Zhao Long came together, and immediately filled all the small grape racks.
Before he could ask why several people came together, Li Enfu had already sat down with a laugh.
"Young master, Hirofumi Ito has come, and he has also brought a handwritten letter from the Emperor. It seems that they want to be at peace."
