The Thirty Years' War lasted so long and caused so much damage to Europe that it was the most tragic conflict in European history before the two world wars. The population of the entire Holy Roman Empire was reduced by one-fifth.

It’s no wonder that the words from Wan Jun’s mouth shocked Poluo Duozhi and others, and Wei Kuangguo was amazed, “The Thirty Years’ War ended in just two or three months, and it took a full two months for Europa’s ships to reach the East.

, I’d like to ask how you know?”

Wan Jun said indifferently, "This is nothing. I also know that Portugal has been in decline for more than half a century. It seems that because of the succession of a certain king, Portugal was merged into Spain. In order to get rid of Spain's control, you are still fighting with Spain.

Fight the War of Independence.”

The three Hongyi people looked at Wan Jun in horror, and Wan Jun smiled jokingly, "Mr. Pineapple, how many troops can Portugal dispatch from Iberia today?"

Boluoduozhi's mouth trembled a few times, and his red face turned pale now, "God, how do you know so clearly?"

Wan Jun said, "You should also know that we have driven the Dutch away from Taiwan Island. I don't think Portugal thinks it is stronger than the Dutch, right?"

Poluoduozhi no longer had the air and arrogance he had just now, "How could this be? How could you know?"

Wan Jun smiled and said, "This noble envoy doesn't need to know, I have my own methods."

The three Hongyi people were still in shock. Wan Jun calmed down for a while, confident that he had frightened the three of them, and then he slowly said, "I don't know, Mr. Pineapple, can we have a good conversation now?"

Porodoch nodded respectfully, "Dear head of state, please speak."

Wan Jun said, "We are different from the Ming Dynasty. Everyone can make money by strengthening trade. I can give Portugal five trading ports, spices, hematoxylin, porcelain, silk, tea, all the goods you need. Huaxia Trading Company can use the most

Preferential prices are provided to Portugal, but accordingly, all your trade in the East can only be conducted with Huaxia Trading House."

It can be heard that the Dutch have been driven away. The Chinese Empire wants to monopolize the Eastern trade, but giving the Portuguese the best price is only good for Portugal. Porodoch readily agreed, "Portugal is very happy. My hon.

head of state."

Wan Jun said, "In addition, I promise Portugal that in the next ten years, the empire will escort the Portuguese fleet east of Malacca. Any conflict between Portugal and anyone, including the Dutch, British, and Spanish, will not be resolved by the empire."

Provide troop and fleet support."

Poirotozhi rubbed his hands, "What about our war with Spain?"

From the Wanli Year of the Ming Dynasty to the present, the Spaniards in Luzon have repeatedly massacred Chinese people. Wan Jun has long had a plan to kill the Spaniards. With a Portuguese helper, why not do it? Wan Jun smiled and said, "I said, including

Spanish."

Porodoch seemed to have seen an angel and raised his hands towards Wanjun, "God, I really don't know what language to use to praise you. My head of state, you are the dearest person in the world."

Wan Jun said, "But you also know that we are still at war with the Tatars. If we want to help you attack Spain, we need to free up our hands from the north."

Poirotozhi asked tentatively, "What can Portugal do for the great head of state?"

Wan Jun said, "We want to send envoys to Europe to conduct technical exchanges with Portugal, and ask Portugal to assist our envoys in studying in Europe."

Wave

Luo Duozhi asked doubtfully, "That's it?"

Wan Jun smiled and said, "It's that simple, but we have a lot of envoys."

"How many?"

"A few dozen, maybe a few hundred people."

Boluoduoji thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

Wan Jun said, "In addition, please ask Macao to support some craftsmen such as iron smelters, glass smelters, cannon makers, and shipbuilders."

Porodoch thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Skilled workers are very valuable. I need to go back and report to Governor Vasiki."

Wan Jun thought for a while and said in a different way, "If there are craftsmen who can preach, I can let them build churches in Chang'an."

Porodoch nodded, "I understand, and I will report these matters to Governor Vasiki as soon as possible."

Wan Jun said happily, "Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Pineapple, my friend."

Porodoch stood up and said, "Mr. Omniscient Führer, it is my honor to be your friend."

After the strenuous negotiations with the Portuguese, Ambassador Boluoduozhi stayed in Chang'an City for half a day and hurriedly returned to Macau by carriage.

Wei Kuangguo was just a companion. After the negotiation, he was deeply curious about Wan Jun and stayed in Chang'an City. Wan Jun also wanted to learn about the West at this time through Wei Kuangguo, so he left Wei Kuangguo in the palace.

Wan Jun was also curious about Wei Kuangguo, "Kangguo, Kuangguo, why did you choose such a Chinese name?"

Wei Kuangguo said, "For the head of state, Wei means to protect, and Kuangguo means to support the country."

To understand the unification of Italy, we have to wait at least another two hundred years. At this time, Italy is just a regional concept. Wan Jun is curious, "Which country should we support?"

Wei Kuangguo replied seriously, "Expel the Tatars and help the Ming Dynasty!"

A European with yellow hair and blue eyes said such words, which made Wan Jun feel an inexplicable joy, but Wei Kuangguo said again, "After meeting the head of state, now I want to help China!"

Wan Jun couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, okay, it's rare for a foreigner like you to have such a heart."

Wei Kuangguo was puzzled, "What are you doing?"

Wan Jun said, "It's okay, it's okay. It's a good thing to have a heart for China."

Wei Kuangguo shook his head, "What the head of state said is inappropriate."

Wan Jun stopped laughing and asked, "What's wrong?"

Wei Kuang Guodao, "China has great etiquette, so it is called Huaxia. Those who conform to Chinese etiquette, customs and civilization are called Huaxia, and those who do not conform to Chinese civilization and etiquette are called barbarians."

Wan Jun said, "You are very knowledgeable."

However, Wei Kuangguo's words quickly made Wan Jun think of a question: Those who conform to Chinese etiquette and civilization are called Huaxia.

Wan Jun was lost in thought for a while before he heard Wei Kuangguo calling him, "Head of State?"

Wan Jun had something on his mind, so he said a few words to Wei Kuangguo and then said, "I'm a little tired today. Let's talk about it another day."

Wei Kuangguo was hurriedly sent away, and Wanjun returned to the back hall, where Wang Huan waited on him and scribbled on paper.

It wasn't until evening that he stopped writing and laughed loudly, "Haha, done!"

Wang Huan took a look and saw rows of square boxes drawn on the paper, but he didn't know what they meant.

After putting down the pen and ink, Wang Huan stretched out his jade hands on Wan Jun's shoulders, gently kneaded them, and said coquettishly, "Husband, please give me a squeeze on your shoulders."

Wan Jun twisted his neck and said, "Thank you for your hard work, madam."

Wang Huan said, "These two

In the past few years, my husband has been busy with wars, and it is rare for him to stay in the house and live a pure life for a few days. It is not too late for me to be happy, so how can I be so hard?"

Wan Jun closed his eyes and said with enjoyment, "Well, well, it will be fine once we defeat the invaders."

Suddenly Wan Jun felt an itch on his neck, and Wang Huan's voice sounded softly in his ears, "I heard that my husband has a big flying ball, and people can ride on the frame below to fly to the sky."

Like a dream, Wang Huan's breath in his ears made Wan Jun's whole body tingle, "Yes, yes, it's called a hot air balloon!"

Wang Huan came closer, and the orchid-like breath almost touched Wan Jun's left ear, "I really want to try it on my body. I wonder what it feels like to go to heaven."

Faced with such provocation, Wan Jun couldn't help it anymore, turned around and hugged Wang Huan, "Come on, come on, I'm going to let you experience the feeling of heaven."

Wang Huan's plot succeeded, and he burst into giggles. After a while, the laughter turned into a low chant.

On the second day, thousands of troops rushed to Chengtian Palace early to convene Cui Ziyi and Wen Anzhi to discuss matters. After waiting for a while, Cui Ziyi and Wen Anzhi arrived one after another.

Seeing Wan Jun's rosy face and a smile on his lips, Cui Ziyi couldn't help but joked, "It seems that the head of state was well moisturized last night."

Wan Jun glanced at Cui Ziyi and said, "Crooked Taoist priest, don't think blindly, or you may go astray."

The Way of Wen'an, "When the head of state convenes, there must be something important to say?"

Wan Jun took out the two pictures he drew yesterday and said, "Look at this."

The two of them looked at it for a while, with no clue, "I wonder what this means?"

Wan Jun picked up one and explained, "This is a military rank chart, sewn on the clothes of all soldiers. Even if the army is scattered, as long as the military rank is seen, the commander can be identified and the soldiers can be gathered quickly."

After that, Wan Jun pointed to the squares and explained, "The short bars represent the time of entering the Chinese Army. One bar represents one year, up to five. Soldiers without military merit can go home after five years, and those with military merit can be promoted in rank.

"

"Then there are long bars and red stars. They are collectively called lieutenants. According to the number of red stars, they are divided into three levels: second lieutenant, lieutenant and captain."

"Above the captain is the captain, with two long bars and red stars. According to the number of red stars, he is divided into three levels: admiral, governor and captain."

"Beyond the captains are generals, with dragon patterns and red stars. According to the number of red stars, they are divided into three levels: general, lieutenant general and general."

After hearing this, Cui Ziyi nodded and praised, "Simple and clear, indeed brilliant."

Wan Jun handed it to Cui Ziyi, "I'll leave this matter to you!"

Then Wan Jun picked up another piece of paper and said to Wen An, "We talked about the land distribution for Miao and Yao people a few days ago, and I thought of a solution."

Wen Anzhi said quickly, "Please give me your instructions, head of state."

Wan Jun handed the paper to Wen Anzhi, "Please see, this is my method."

There were also several boxes drawn on the paper, and words were written in the boxes. Wen Anzhi thought, "Citizen?"

Wan Jun said, "It is similar to the military rank system, but it is much simpler. We also divide the people under the rule of the Huaxia Army into several levels. Different levels have different benefits, and the land is divided according to the level. Isn't that okay?

?”

Wen Anzhi thought for a while and said cautiously, "The affairs of the world are not concerned with few but with inequality. During the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, the people of the world were divided into four classes. As a result, it didn't take long for the Han people divided into four classes to raise their flags one after another and beat the Mongols.
