Far East City, a hundred years ago, was a remote town with only 250 families.

As Spanish colonists invaded Luzon, they opened up a Pacific route connecting Asia and the Americas. Sailing ships full of spices, porcelain and silk flourished, and the local economy was becoming increasingly prosperous, gradually deriveing ​​large-scale market trade when the "Chinese ship" arrived.

To this end, the Spanish established the city of Acapulco here, connecting the trade between the Mexican colonies and the South China Sea.

In the tenth year of Tianwu, the Ming Dynasty recovered Luzon and took over this route from Spain. It sent troops to rob the city of Acapulco and renamed it Far East City.

Seven years have passed in a blink of an eye. The Chinese New Year has just passed. Xu Mingwu has been serving as the governor of the Far East of the Ming Dynasty for seven years.

The Ming Dynasty's overseas territory in the Far East was originally only tens of thousands of square kilometers near the city of Acapulco, including the territory of many noble families.

With the Ming Dynasty officially appointed the governor to manage the Far East, Xu Mingwu brought a large number of troops. After seven years of conquest and integration, he broke the Spanish army several times and occupied Spain's vast colonies in the Americas with force.

Currently, the territory actually controlled by the Governor's Office includes later generations such as Mexico (south of Mexico City), Honduras, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Chile and other American countries close to the ocean.

Xu Mingwu is a busy man. He has not stayed in the Governor's Office for most of the past seven years, but has inspected all over the Far East, so busy that he is extremely busy.

In the Far East, there are more than a dozen ethnic groups including Han people, Spanish people, local indigenous people, with a population of more than 10 million. Under the rule of Xu Mingwu, the faction is thriving.

Therefore, Xu Mingwu has a very high status in military affairs, civil affairs, education, industry and commerce, and even has a great reputation in Brazil.

He has many titles, in addition to the Governor of the Far East of the Ming Dynasty, there are also commanders of the Far East Army, son-in-law, dean of the Far East Military Academy, president of the Far East Chamber of Commerce, honorary president of the Far East University, honorary president of the Far East Railway Company, and even president of the Far East Confucian Research Association...

Therefore, Xu Mingwu was busy all day long and was always busy. He also had to go to the colonies of Brazil and Portugal to inspect which land was good and prepared to rent it.

Although Brazil is nominally a Portuguese colony, the thirteen military strongholds of the Far East Army are spread all over Brazil, and Brazil's local economy is basically tied to the Far East.

The alliance with the Ming Dynasty was the foundation for Portugal's life over the years. Without the guarantee of the Ming army, they were just younger brothers in Europe, and others could touch them if they wanted to.

In the past seven years, Xu Mingwu has never returned to Middle-earth.

Originally, Xu Mingwu was the second-rank governor of the court. According to the rules, he should return to Beijing to report his duties regularly. If there are important matters in the court, Xu Mingwu should also be invited to return to the court to discuss.

However, when the performance report occurs every three years, the court will issue an edict in advance, allowing Xu Mingwu not to return to the court, but only to submit a performance report.

The reason for the court was that it took a year to travel to the capital from the Far East City, and the Far East region was in chaos. As the governor, Xu Mingwu was busy with official duties and wasted time on his way back to Beijing. The people of the Far East could not live without him.

When Xu Mingwu received the edict, he laughed it off. Everyone understood that he was the Han King Party, and his father-in-law was afraid that they would unite, so he separated him and the Han King, separated half of the earth.

Of course, Xu Mingwu didn't want to go back. America was fun, just like playing the Empire Age, the surrounding colonial forces were complicated, and he needed to constantly enhance his strength and destroy them one by one!

Moreover, Xu Mingwu really can't leave, and too many major events have happened in recent years!

First, not long after he was the governor of the Far East, the Second British-Dutch War broke out, followed by the European Black Death's comeback and invaded Britain again, causing a large-scale epidemic and a sharp increase in the number of deaths.

It is said that about 100,000 people died in this disaster, causing chaos in the UK. Even the king lives in Oxford temporarily, and the rich people in the city fled with their families and their families.

In addition, the London fire burned one-sixth of London's buildings, and Britain was unable to fight again. The Dutch fleet dared to go deep into the enemy's abdomen and lead the war to the British Empire's home.

The Second British-Dutch War ended with the defeat of Britain.

What made Xu Mingwu excited was the third British-Dutch war that had just ended, which could be said to be a big show of the year, a small-scale world war!

First of all, the Speaker of the Netherlands, who was a businessman, was causing trouble. He was worried that France's territorial expansion under the leadership of Louis XIV would threaten the security of the Netherlands' local area, so he used both soft and hard methods to unite Britain and Sweden to become the "Three Kingdoms Alliance" to jointly curb France.

What's even more excessive is that the Netherlands also asked France not to bully Spain and return a large amount of Spanish occupation, otherwise the "Three Kingdoms Alliance" would declare war on France.

Because of insufficient preparations for war, Louis XIV pinched his nose and accepted the request of the Speaker of the Netherlands, but it also completely angered the Sun King.

In fact, Britain's participation in the Three Kingdoms Alliance was really because of the failure of the Second Anglo-Dutch War and the additional conditions for signing the treaty.

King Charles II of the British King has always been resentful and longed for revenge. Both Britain and France have been defeated and contained by the small country, the Netherlands, which is simply a great humiliation!

If this matter was spread to the Ming Empire in the East, it would make people laugh to death!

So after Louis XIV launched a large-scale military expansion, he launched diplomatic skills. French genius Foreign Minister Leona used a series of outstanding diplomatic means to skillfully destroy the nominal "Three Kingdoms Alliance" in the Netherlands.

This guy first spent money to bribe the Swedish parliament. After Sweden gave up the promise of the Triangle Alliance to remain neutral, he formed an alliance with Britain and jointly attacked the Netherlands. Some of the war costs were paid by France. After the big victory, the two families divided the territory of the Netherlands again.

Others treat guests to war and there are huge dividends. The UK will naturally not refuse such a good thing. The two sides hit it off and were ready to make a blow to the Netherlands.

Louis XIV had more than that. While forming alliances with Britain, he also bribed and instigated the Archbishop of Munster, the neighboring country of the Netherlands, and the Archbishop of Cologne, and promised that once France sent troops, they would also go out and provide French transportation and logistics support.

After everything was ready, Louis XIV officially took the lead in declaring war on the Netherlands in the 28th year of Tianwu, and then Britain also started war on the Netherlands, and the Third British-Dutch War broke out.

The battle lasted for two years. Just as it ended at the beginning of this year, the Netherlands was in a state of embattledness and was almost destroyed.

However, the title of the coachman at sea is not a joke. The Dutch Navy is worthy of being an old-fashioned brother. He fought four naval battles with the British Navy, and all won a huge victory. The British were forced to make a ceasefire.
