Chapter 1358: The Battle of Civilizations (Second update, please subscribe)
Crusades!
No matter what kind of reason the Roman Empire found for itself, one thing that is certain is that this was Chiguoguo's invasion.
Of course, the rules of the world in this era are so simple. The weak and the strong are the basic rules of the world.
As time approaches the threshold of 1995, the world seems to be sliding towards war at an unprecedented speed, and the dark clouds of war are getting thicker and thicker.
When the world was changing, in the capital of the Ming Empire, Emperor Zhu Da did not pay attention to the changes in the world situation as usual, but played chess there.
Chess game.
In the past few decades, Emperor Zhu Da has become more and more fond of playing chess, but he plays Go. In fact, he is also good at chess and chess, but what he likes more is playing Go, especially chess and chess.
The ministers played Go and chatted while playing chess.
"Your Majesty, the situation in Europe is now progressing as you planned, but it seems that it is still a little behind."
What Qian Degong calls "heat" is that the fire is missing, and that fire...has not burned yet. "Can we add some fire to play the French card?"
As the prime minister of the empire, Qian Degong certainly knew the truth about the "Jerusalem Incident". As long as he played that card, the war would definitely break out.
"Not needed yet."
Emperor Zhu Da smiled and shook his head, and then said.
"Just wait two more months. After two months, the fire will naturally start burning!"
Why are you so confident?
Because... Emperor Zhu Da simulated it several times and already knew the answer. After two months, the fire will burn in another way. Once the fire starts, no one can stop it.
.
Eventually, the flames of war will burn throughout the world.
"When one European country after another is involved in this world war, that is when the lights go out from the entire European world."
After placing a chess piece, Emperor Zhu Da smiled.
"This was also the beginning of the overall decline of European civilization. In the past two hundred years, the rise of European civilization was not so much the superiority of the white race, but rather the mixture of many peoples with similar abilities on one continent. The Anglo-Saxons
, Gauls, Germans, and Slavs, they were all more or less under the rule of the Roman Empire. Their civilizations and cultures were similar. During the collapse of the Roman Empire, they established one after another.
They started their own country, experienced the darkness of the Middle Ages, and before and after the Renaissance, they imitated each other, influenced each other, mixed with each other, and fought with each other. The result of this mutual interaction finally made their power surpass that of other nations in the world."
Staring at the chessboard, Emperor Zhu thought for a while and then said.
"The French invented the pulley, and the Spaniards immediately imitated it. After the Spaniards invented a hull that could withstand wind and waves, the French also built the same boat. The industrial revolution that broke out in Britain was immediately adopted by other European countries.
. Not only in terms of technology, but also in terms of knowledge, art, and religion. Speaking of religion, what do they have in common? It is Christianity. Religious organizations play a key role in spreading knowledge, technology, and art, so
European civilization is essentially Christian civilization, which is why Europeans call themselves "Christendom". This is of course why they reject us and regard us as civilizational competitors..."
After a pause, Emperor Zhu Da sneered.
"To them, we are aliens and a foreign race. This time, we are taking advantage of the differences in interests between them and using their internal strength - the French, Russians, and Austrians to destroy them from within the fortress.
In essence, this war is still a battle of civilizations for us..."
But in this battle, Ming's allies included allies from Europe.
The battle of civilizations!
This is almost inevitable. Europe actually rose to prominence around the fifteenth century. During the next three to four hundred years, Europe's "human wisdom" developed, from the dark Middle Ages to the Renaissance, and then to the rise of European civilization.
Rise up in an all-round way and even dominate the world.
In the mid-19th century, the rise of European civilization was accompanied by the rampant imperialism. It was at this time that the "Shengde Ming Dynasty" suddenly entered the circle of imperialism.
It was during this period of maturity that imperialism entered the circle, but this circle was dominated by European civilization.
In the simulation of the Nanhua period, why Britain, the United States and other countries regarded Ming as a thorn in their side? To put it bluntly, it was because Ming was not in their circle—this circle was the European civilization circle, or the Christian circle.
This circle composed of white people naturally excludes yellow people, and the circle of European civilization naturally excludes Asian civilization.
Therefore, the battle between races and civilizations has become inevitable.
It's just that from the beginning, Emperor Zhu Da had no intention of "coexisting and co-prospering" with them, and he deliberately wanted to destroy this circle, because in the early simulation, Nanhua had to survive at the cost of one generation.
that power.
Emperor Zhu Da would not make the same mistake a second time.
"The battle of civilizations - Chinese civilization and European civilization can always coexist. However, if European civilization tries to use their context to dominate the world, this is obviously impossible. This war is not so much about us fighting for
The fight for living space is better said to be a fight for...the coexistence of civilizations!"
After placing the chess pieces heavily and looking at the situation on the chessboard, Emperor Zhu smiled and said.
"Qian Qing's family, your chess game today was a bit messy!"
"His Majesty……"
Looking up at His Majesty, Qian Degong replied.
"This situation is getting more and more intense, and I can't calm down. The empire needs to mobilize millions of troops to fight simultaneously on all continents of the world. Such a huge war can be said to be unprecedented in human history. I..."
After thinking about it, Qian Degong said.
"I'm really a little worried,"
"worry……"
Nodding slightly, Emperor Zhu Da said.
"Why am I not worried? After all, this is putting the entire empire on the gambling table. However, in the process of the rise of a great power, it not only requires reassurance, but also decisiveness. The vast ocean is a casino, and you must be brave at critical moments.
Stud is also a must..."
After thinking for a while, looking at the chessboard that already showed his advantage, Emperor Zhu Da said in a slightly heavy tone.
"Since it is inevitable, let us go all out, and then... believe in our army! I believe they will be able to win the war!"
