"Commander, you mean...that little Israel will hinder Ming Dynasty's interests in Europe?"

Ai Hu Sheng didn't believe it. A country that just established in Russian territory can actually affect the interests of the Daming Empire in Europe.

“Israel looks like a small country that was just established, but in fact it is the accumulation of the Hebrew nation for thousands of years.

Behind each government, there is a shadow government. Some people with very powerful energy can affect the policy of a country.

Europe has it, and so does our Ming Dynasty!

The people in Europe who are most able to influence government policies are actually the extremely wealthy Hebrew consortium.

Europe is a little different from us. It is a business society. Everything is dominated by money!

Even Napoleon and Frederick had to rely on the Hebrew consortium in many places.

Not to mention, Britain has a stronger business atmosphere. In the European Middle Ages, the king had to ask for the consent of the consortium before going to war.

Because they have to borrow money from the consortium!

During the last European war, it seemed that our Ming Dynasty made a lot of money. But in fact, the Hebrew consortium made more.

And this war with Russia!

Now I know that we are not the largest buyer of the war bonds we sold in Europe. Almost all the bonds issued were bought by the Hebrew consortium.

In other words, the Hebrew consortium is now the largest creditor of France and Prussia.

Now on the surface, you appear to be a constantly jumping Israel, but in fact, behind them, there is a Hebrew consortium with powerful supernatural powers and strong financial resources.

Moreover, the Hebrew nation has been oppressed for thousands of years.

Every Hebrew hopes to have a country of his own. In fact, the land they want most is the old land of the State of Israel - Palestine.

But they can't go back to Palestine now, because that is our sphere of influence. In other words, even if we hadn't encouraged the Austro-Hungarian Empire this time, they would have hated us.

Because we are the biggest obstacle preventing them from returning to their homeland and establishing their country.

Now you understand why I want to prepare for the war in a few years.

As Israel develops, they will definitely want to return to their homeland, because this is the dream of every Hebrew.

But only by defeating us can they take back Palestine and their holy land, Jerusalem."

No one understands better than Li Xiao the damage caused by the Hebrew consortium to the world.

This is a group of pure profit animals who don't care about all civility, justice and morality in order to make money.

More importantly, they have no concept of a country. They cannot be loyal to each country, only control.

This is the biggest difference between Li Xiao and them!

No matter how cruel, vicious, or even anti-human, the Ming court headed by Li Xiao still put the interests of the Ming court and the Ming Empire first.

But these Hebrews were so cruel that they even tricked their own people.

Li Xiao could not do this no matter what.

Of course, Li Xiao will never be lenient when dealing with those selfish national scum who do not hesitate to harm the people of Ming Dynasty for their own selfish desires.

After Li Xiao said something, Ai Husheng stopped talking.

He controls the Ministry of Revenue, which is the money bag of the Ming Empire. At the same time, it is also the department that has the most dealings with the Hebrews.

Ai Husheng was deeply touched by what Li Xiao said.

"Now that the commander-in-chief has made the decision, we must now consider the transition.

The court will no longer approve recent major projects.

Most of our current major projects, except for the railway from Guanzhong to Chengdu, will be completed.

The imperial court originally did not want to approve the new battleship that Er Ye needs to build. But now it seems that we can use the money for building the Sichuan Railway on the battleship."

Zhang Huangyan reacted very quickly and immediately thought of how to implement Li Xiao's words. Fortunately, the country of Israel is weak enough now. It is estimated that it will take at least five years to challenge the powerful Ming Empire.

If those Hebrews were resilient and tolerant, it might have been delayed until ten years.

"Second brother, how many battleships are going to be built?" Li Xiao knew that with the advancement of technology, the cost of building ironclads would increase exponentially.

Especially battleships, which are extremely anti-human things. The latest Shanzi-class battleship has a main gun caliber of 480 mm.

It is estimated that with the temper of Li Xiu, it is likely that the main gun caliber of this group of battleships will exceed 500 millimeters.

That's the thing with artillery. You keep trying to increase the caliber, but in the end it feels like it's not enough.

In particular, the battleship is the ultimate of the development of human bulk cannons.

At present, the Daming Navy is already the existence of all the oceans. The world's navy has calculated that there are only a dozen destroyer -level iron armored ships in the North American territory.

The old -fashioned Ocean Empire has been completely disabled. There are only five iron armored ships, which is still the kind of old coal burning.

The caliber of the main gun is only a mere 150 mm. This is already the top navy in Europe.

Because the relationship with Daming is an ally, the French Navy still has some advantages. Two noodle iron armored ships are old ships bought.

The tonnage is only more than 5,000 tons. If it is hit by the main gun of Kunlun Mountain, it is estimated that a gun will be sent to the bottom of the sea.

The Prussian Navy is primitive! Its warships are still in the age of wooden sail warships!

Recently, it is negotiating with Daming to order two new warships. However, the order is also the destroyer level.

Looking at the sea, perhaps the only thing that can pose a sufficient threat to the Ming Dynasty's navy is mines.

"Four! But Er Ye said, if there is no money, the three ships will become!" Ai Hu Sheng whispered.

"Three ships...!" Li Xiao thought for a while and then said two words: "Rejected!"

"What?" Ai Husheng looked at Li Xiao strangely. He had just said that he wanted to prepare for war. But..., the promise of building a warship was actually refuted.

Looking at the Ming court, probably only Li Xiao would dare to say this.

"All the battleship discounts were rejected. I told the second brother that the imperial court could only approve the money to build three destroyers.

Within five years, the navy will not launch new warships." Li Xiao said coldly.

"This...!" Ai Husheng glanced at Zhang Huangyan. He did not dare to say this to Li Xiu.

"Handsome, like this ..., afraid of the second grandfather ..." Zhang Huangyan was also a little surprised. I did not expect that Li Yan actually refuted the fold.

Moreover, only three destroyers can be launched in the future. How can Li Xiu do this? He will definitely go crazy.

"There is a problem to ask him to ask me." Li Yan's words were relieved.

If he said this to Li Xiu, he might get beaten. Besides, he was the handsome brother, so even if he was beaten, it would be in vain.

"promise!"

"Also! Send a telegram to Sun Yuanhua in Singapore. Starting today, all foreign ships will strictly enter the South China Sea.

All foreign ships attempting to enter the South China Sea will be sunk immediately without questioning.

At the same time, ships that can enter the South China Sea are not allowed to carry any foreigners.

It is rumored that the governors of various places, especially the two, Guanghe and Yizhou, Fujian. Drive all foreigners.

Moreover, residence in Cochin and Southeast Asia is not allowed.

Order the Liaodong Navy to blockade the Bohai Bay and all foreign ships, including Korean and Japanese ships.

In addition, the entire Northeast.

Notice!

I'm talking about the entire Northeast, not the entire Liaodong.

All foreigners, including the people of the country, North Korea, North Korea, Mongolia, and Daming, leave the country within one month within a time limit.

One month later, all foreigners stranded in the Northeast will be executed! No discussion is allowed, do you understand?"

"Uh...! This...!" Ai Husheng and Zhang Huangyan looked at each other again. This ban was a bit too cruel.

According to the existing imperial decree, Western ships are not allowed to enter the South China Sea. This is normal, and Western ships are used to delivering goods in Singapore.

But these goods also need to be inspected by merchants.

All foreigners are not allowed to enter the South China Sea. What else do you do ... what else do you do?

In addition, the entire Northeast is not allowed to live in people, including the Daming Verities, North Korea and the Language, to live.

This is even more inhumane, for example, Yanbian, which is close to North Korea, is the traditional residence of Koreans.

But according to the boundary division, it can also be regarded as the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

If those North Koreans really didn't leave, could they all be killed? That would be tens of thousands of people!

"Commander, what are you...!" Zhang Huangyan knew that Ai Husheng had turned into a quail and dared not speak. He could only ask this question.

"I don't trust all foreigners, if I need a reason. I need to keep it secret before the war. Is this reason enough?"

"Uh ...! Nuo." Li Yan's reasons were extremely powerful. No one dared to speak, including Zhang Huangyan.

"Domestic manufacturers can go to Singapore to set up shops. Bring some samples and order whatever you want. It's just a matter of sending a telegram back!

It's just that there are tens of thousands of Koreans in Yanbian...!" Ai Husheng looked at Li Xiao with some embarrassment. His father-in-law had many shops in Yanbian.
