Chapter 1014 Declare war

The Opium War was planned by Zhu Youjian for a long time, and of course the Ming Dynasty would not be unprepared. The Ming Dynasty's intelligence departments in Europe were always paying attention to the movements of European countries.

Especially in several countries that are not very friendly to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming embassy and renting have built bunkers and walls, and only the Ming people can enter these places.

Seeing the riots in Europe becoming increasingly fierce, the Ming Dynasty only left the hired foreign employees in the tobacco shops in various countries. The Ming Dynasty's people withdrew their concessions and embassies, as long as the personnel are safe, and property losses are not considered for the time being, and they will be doubled after the war.

There are also some Chinese who want money but are reluctant to evacuate after receiving the order to retreat. They have become targets of attack, causing some casualties and property losses.

Although the Ming Dynasty and the Netherlands and Spain and other countries had conflicts in the Americas, diplomatic relations between the two sides had not been interrupted and trade exchanges had not been interrupted before. Their country's military still dared not openly attack the Ming people who were doing business in their own country.

But those who caused trouble didn't care about this. They crazily smashed and smashed the Ming tobacco shops, and later they affected some Chinese shops. Seeing that the shops were all run by their own people, the Chinese had already withdrawn, so they snatched the shops and tobacco shops and set fire to the fire, and then attacked the concessions and embassies.

The Ming embassy and the concession were protected by security personnel, including many personnel from the Ming intelligence system. In order to deal with the thug attacks, the embassy and the concession security were equipped with grenades and rifled guns.

The Ming Dynasty security guards saw thousands of foreigners besieging them with stone wooden pipes and iron tools in their hands. They ignored the fact that they were abroad and unceremoniously shot and killed the foreigners besieging the embassy.

For a time, fierce battles occurred in many places in England, the Netherlands, Spain and other countries. Faced with the Ming security guards who were armed with guns and ammunition, although there were many anti-Ming people in several countries, they could only fall on the ground of the embassy and concessions.

Five days after the riot, at least 30,000 foreigners who had opposed the Ming Dynasty were killed by Ming security guards, and more than 100,000 were injured. However, because the country's army was sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, the riot continued to occur.

As the number of anti-Ming continued to increase, their casualties gradually increased. The Ming security guards were all regular soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. With their strong bunkers and walls and advanced firearms, only a small number of people were injured.

Later, the Netherlands royal family, Spanish royal family, English royal family, and Portuguese royal family could no longer sit still. They ordered some soldiers to join the anti-Ming team, and they secretly fired the anti-Ming people, and soon the two sides began to fight more fiercely.

However, the Ming security guards bravely fought back with bunkers and walls, which still made these countries unable to gain any advantage. Only the national army had artillery, because there were still some concerns at the moment, and they did not dare to bombard the embassy and concessions.

The conflict lasted for more than a month, but the one who was injured was not the Ming Dynasty. There were only heavy casualties in the country that caused trouble. The people of Daming hid in the concession and embassy, ​​and they had no choice.

As time goes by, overseas institutions in Daming gradually began to have problems with not giving, and they could not go out to purchase daily necessities, and hunger would soon occur.

Several anti-Ming state intelligence agencies also discovered this problem. They immediately notified the mobs of the situation and asked them to wait for the Ming people to come out to purchase daily necessities and take the opportunity to attack.

There were several countries with the same problem as the embassy. There was a serious shortage of living resources, and the source of this problem came from the Ming Dynasty's economic and trade sanctions on them.

Many of their resources were plundered by colonies in the past, but now there are no colonies in Asia and America. The colonization of Africa has just begun. Besides, Africa does not have so many resources, only black slaves.

The Ming Dynasty has occupied several important waterways and large areas of waters around the world, including Malacca, Europe, Europe, Africa and Egypt.

Even if the Ming Dynasty did not occupy the American colonies, Western countries wanted to transport back the resources plundered by the American colonies, but they would oppress the Ming Dynasty's face.

Now the Ming Dynasty not only cut off trade with them, but also blocked the waterways they passed. In addition, the Ming Dynasty issued a notice to the world sanctions on the four countries.

All countries with the Ming Dynasty and trade and diplomatic relations dare not confront the Ming Dynasty for these countries, which further led to the four countries being able to support themselves.

With their small land and years of war consumption, they could not satisfy their self-sufficiency at all, so they soon caused a resource crisis in their country, which further intensified; the confrontation between their people and the royal family.

It can be said that these four countries are now suffering from internal and external troubles. How do they confront the Ming Dynasty? Just when they felt that they should take the initiative to compromise, the Ming Dynasty had already announced an announcement to the whole world.

The content of the announcement was that the four countries jointly launched an action to boycott the Ming Dynasty, which not only caused serious losses to the Ming Dynasty's property in the four countries, but also caused casualties to the 4,900 Ming people. In order to protect overseas people, the Ming Dynasty officially declared war on the four countries.

When the Ming Dynasty declared war on it, the three Ming fleets were about fifty nautical miles away from the four countries. When the four kings received this information, they knew that they had been fooled. It was obvious that the Ming Dynasty had been prepared for this.

The royal families of the four kings were suddenly panicked. They thought of Tsarist Russia, the Ottoman Empire, and Lithuania... These countries no longer exist, and what destroyed them was the Ming Dynasty they were facing now.

The current strength of the Ming Dynasty made them dare not confront each other head-on and openly, so they could only make some small moves behind their backs. When the Ming fleet's strong ships and powerful cannons approached their homes, they realized that they regretted it.

Especially England, when the Ming Dynasty expelled Western colonies in Asia, they were still weak, so there was no major conflict. When an uprising broke out in their country to overthrow the royal rule, the Ming Dynasty once helped them.

These British men thought they were smart and thought that the Ming Dynasty would not use force against them. When the Warsaw Pact countries and the joint forces led by France started war, they secretly supported France for hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. They thought that the Ming Dynasty did not know.

When opposing the Daming tobacco shop in China this time, they wanted to replace Daming tobacco shop business, and they turned a blind eye and ignored it.

When we saw the situation serious, in order to perfunctorily treat the Ming court, we symbolically sent some soldiers to protect it. However, it was too late and there was no use for any birds. Later, the situation developed so much that they were unable to control it.

At this time, the King of England was Charles I, also translated as Charles I.

The tenth king of the Stuart dynasty in Scotland and the second king of the Stuart dynasty in England and Ireland.

The only king in British history to be publicly executed, and the first monarch in European history to be publicly executed.
