Chapter 947(1/2)
Dorgon walked out of the steel factory wearing a pair of coarse clothes. It must be said that this kind of thing called jeans by the Ming Dynasty is strong.
Not only is it wear-resistant, but it won't burn a hole even if a spark breaks out.
I really don’t understand how this thing is woven. I sent people to Daming to inquire several times and found many good people, but I still couldn’t find out the formula and craftsmanship.
There is nothing we can do about it. The group of people who stayed in the early years have either been broken up over the years or have turned traitor. Some even became double agents.
Compared with the Ming Dynasty's growing national strength, the conditions offered by the Russians were not so attractive. Who doesn't want to live in a country with political stability and a prosperous people?
As long as this person is not stupid or crazy, he can make the right choice between Ming Dynasty and Russia.
Although they were the toughest with the Russians, Jilharang and Dorgon later found out that the people they left behind in the Ming Dynasty were no more than one in ten. And even those one could not say that they were 100% safe.
trust.
In the past few years, the drawings brought by India have gradually been exhausted. The workers brought by India have gradually adapted to life in Russia, and the apprentices they brought out can already control the equipment in their hands very well.
Although I can’t say that my skills are exquisite, I can still use it.
The cards in his hand were almost exhausted, and it was getting harder and harder to get things from Ming Dynasty. Dorgon felt that he was about to be squeezed dry by Empress Catherine.
"Dorgon, I heard that a peace conference is being held in Paris. The Ming Dynasty wants to organize a Western coalition to march into Russia, and take advantage of the Russian army's fighting on the southern front to attack us from the west.
France and Prussia have already agreed to send troops, and the Polish wall will definitely fall. It is not sure whether Britain will participate, but the Ming Dynasty has made it clear that Britain is not allowed to spy on French soil.
The Ming Dynasty fleet is currently stationed in the ports of Calais, Caen, and Antwerp. It has almost blocked the English Channel. The English Channel has been blocked. Even if the British have any ideas, I am afraid they are unable to do so."
Just after sitting down, Jierhalang poured Dorgon a cup of tea.
"Not only is it blocking the English Channel, England is an island country with many important cities. For example, London, York, and Edinburgh are all located along the coast.
The terrifying arsenal ships of the Ming Dynasty can easily destroy these cities. Can you imagine the terrible scene if London is plowed by rocket launchers?
I think even the Queen of England can never afford such a loss.
Poor England, which once dominated the ocean, is now blocked by its navy. Now, with just the few ships of the British navy, I'm afraid it can't even get out of the port."
Dorgon shook his head helplessly. The Ming Dynasty's navy became more and more powerful. It was already so powerful that it was invincible. Those warships floating on the sea like mountains easily destroyed the Russian fortress Sevastopol!
It was a fortress, but it had been built since the Ottoman Empire. Later, the Russian army captured it and continued to build it. In recent years, after Dorgon produced cement, hundreds of thousands of tons of cement were poured into the fortress.
In less than half a day, they were blown into pieces by the Ming fleet. This shows how terrifying the Ming fleet is. If they attack London, or York..., the British will probably collapse.
"Yes! The survivors of Sevastopol said that the Ming Dynasty's new warships are as big as mountains floating on the sea. A single cannonball can destroy a building!
It is estimated that this is the Shanzi-class battleship with a 460mm cannon according to the intelligence. The Ming Dynasty called this kind of warship a battleship.
Over the years, the Ming Navy has become more and more powerful. Even the armored ships have been divided into different levels!
The light ones are called destroyers, the larger ones are called cruisers, and the Shanzi-class ones are called battleships. Please report that the fuel of the battleships has been completely changed to oil.
I still don’t know how they use oil. Anyway, as long as the Ming Dynasty used it, burning oil will definitely be better than burning coal!
It is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain information about the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty's heavy warships are no longer limited to the shipyards of Lushun and Huangdao.
The Kunlun Mountain-class battleship was launched at the Sinjiapo Shipyard. The ocean used to belong to the British, but the ocean now belongs to the Ming Dynasty.
Do you think we will be rewarded for our hard work in Russia?" The strength of the Ming Dynasty has become synonymous with invincibility. Now Jierhalang has begun to doubt whether he and Dorgon will be able to win after so much effort.
Odds of winning.
"A lot of things in this world are actually not much different from shitting." Dorgon took a sip of tea, lay on the recliner and closed his eyes.
I was busy all night last night, and I still don’t know if the new product can achieve the required strength of the new gun barrel.
"Pooping?" Jierhalang felt a little disgusted. What he did was actually on the same level as pooping.
"Yes! You've obviously worked very hard, but nothing happened." Dorgon shook his head helplessly.
"Pfft...!" Jierhalang spurted out the sip of wine he had just taken.
"If the coalition forces really attack in the west, Russia will not be able to withstand it at all." Dorgon's leisurely words put back the laughter and curse that Jirhalang was about to blurt out.
"Then what should we do?" Jierhalang's heart dropped to the bottom of his heart.
He knew that Ming Dynasty would never let him and Dorgon go. Moreover, the brothers had been in Russia for several years, so it was not easy to keep it secret. I am afraid that by this time, Li Xiao already knew that his two brothers were hiding in Russia.
Once the coalition forces break through Mosca, I'm afraid my brother will definitely be ranked quite high on the arrest list.
"The Ottoman Empire was already the dog of the Ming Dynasty. Li Xiao let them out to bite people. Now, the Ming Dynasty has let out another dog.
Russia will definitely be torn to pieces under the bite of these two dogs." Dorgon seemed to be talking to the air without answering Jilharang's words.
"Then what should we do?" Seeing Dorgon's appearance, Jierhalang couldn't wait to drag him up immediately.
"What should I do? Run!"
"Where to run?" After listening to Dorgon's words, Jierhalang felt that the world was too big and there was no place for them to stand.
"The North American Territory is already far away from the Ming Dynasty. Maybe by the time the Ming Dynasty catches up there, we will have died of old age." Dorgon shook his head helplessly. He also felt that he and his brothers looked too much like bereaved dogs.
"Hey...! When did this end? Russia has just begun to show some strength, and its steel production is not as good as India's.
The biggest blow to career ambition is that when things are just promising, a strong hand suddenly appears and kills the hope very forcefully.
Hope was shattered ruthlessly like a soap bubble, and all the hard work put in for it was in vain.
In the end, it can only be a sigh."
"When is the end? You point your pistol at the temple and shoot it, and it's over immediately."
"You...!" Jierhalang glared at Dorgon.
"We brothers came out of Liaodong, and first committed themselves to the Mongols, then Wu Sangui, and then Russia. It has been more than ten years since then, and the belief that supports us is to survive.
Live, live, as long as you live there will be hope. Even if there is only a shred of hope, we must fight for the Jurchen's future.
Entrepreneurship is like this, fighting against the sky, the earth, and people.
Even if we fail in the end, we must fulfill our responsibility to pass on the Jurchen bloodline. The failure of our generation does not mean that our son will not succeed, the son will not succeed, and the grandson will not succeed.
The foolish old man moved the mountains, but he still knew that there would be no end to his descendants.
We are the foolish old men of the Jurchens, and the mountain in front of us is the Ming Dynasty.
As long as our Jurchen bloodline continues, if it doesn't work for one hundred years, we will dig for two hundred years. If it doesn't work for two hundred years, we will dig for five hundred years. If it doesn't work for five hundred years, we will dig for one thousand years.
Now it seems that this kind of thing can only be left to future generations. This time we go to the North American territory, use the money we have saved to buy more land, and then have more babies. We will pass on the bloodline and train them to be useful.
This is our mission and our responsibility!”
Jilharang already had three sons, and all of them who had been wandering around for many years died. As for Dorgon, I don’t know what happened, but he couldn’t get a woman pregnant.
To this end, Dorgon tried Manchu women, Han women, Mongolian women, Central Asian women, and even dark-skinned Indian women. As for British women, French women, and now Russian women, I don’t know if he has tried it.
How much money has he made, but now he doesn’t even have a daughter, let alone a son.
Sometimes, Dorgon even thought that God was punishing him.
In Liaodong, the Jurchens treated the Han people too cruelly. It was the Xianglan Banner who massacred Li Xiao's family, but the Jurchen Banners also did this kind of thing.
Millions of Han people in Liaodong were almost wiped out within a few years.
Perhaps, this is heaven's punishment, or heaven's punishment! When it comes to giving birth to a child, Dorgon has reached the stage of obeying fate in everything he does!
"So, after our escape this time, we will become stallions?" Jierhalang was almost made angry by Dorgon.
"Otherwise, what can I do? The Ming Dynasty is now at its peak under the leadership of Li Xiao. It is impossible to defeat them, but I don't believe that Li Xiao will always be so wise and powerful.
Even if Li Xiao is wise and powerful, I don't believe that Li Xiao's son is wise and powerful. Even if Li Xiao's son and grandson are geniuses, I don't believe that all the descendants of their Li family are such people.
As long as there is a foolish king in the Li family, we will have hope."
"Damn! How many years will we have to wait?" Jierhalang felt that it was unreliable to wait like this.
"
I looked through the history books of Chinese civilization! The Western Zhou Dynasty claims to have a history of 800 years, but that is just a claim. Those ancient books are not reliable at all!
The powerful Qin State fell after two generations, which only lasted fourteen years.
The two Han dynasties together were only a little over four hundred years. This also includes the years when Wang Mang usurped power.
The Tang Dynasty was longer, only 289 years old.
Although the two Song Dynasties together lasted more than three hundred years, everyone knows that the Song Dynasty was actually just hanging on to its last breath in the Southern Song Dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty is only a little over three hundred years old!
Many, many years ago, Zhu Yuanzhang said that in five hundred years a king will rise, but his rise will be sudden, and his defeat will be sudden!
Zhu Yuanzhang said too much that most Han dynasties can only exist for about three hundred years. If Li Xiao had not appeared in the Ming Dynasty, he might have been replaced by our Jurchens by now.
Although Li Xiao is powerful, I don't really believe that he can break the three-hundred-year curse of the Han people.
The reason why the curse is called a curse is because there are certain laws in the development of things. Jierhalang, believe me, we won't be able to wait for many years. Maybe it won't even be used for three generations."
Dorgon looked at Jierhalang with a smile. According to the inevitable rules of the Han Dynasty, even if a monster like Li Xiao appeared, the Ming Empire should not last long.
"Well, since you think so, then I can only hope that you are right!" Jierhalang closed his mouth midway through his words because the wooden floor outside the room squeaked.
sound.
The old floor is better in this regard. No one can approach it quietly. As long as someone walks on it, it will definitely make a sound.
