Chapter 1991, King Xing, who bullied others with the help of his royal relatives
"This King Xing is so shameless!"
After reading the telegram quickly, Liu Jin couldn't help but curse.
Liu Jin had already heard about the Xingguo. Because King Xing went to sea relatively late, he could only go to West Africa to establish the Daxingguo.
All the good positions have been taken by others first. The location of Daxingguo is not that good. It is in a tropical area or a rainforest area. It has a small area and little arable land. The key is that there are no special resources that can allow Xingguo to develop quickly.
of.
Prince Xing and Emperor Hongzhi are brothers. This means that Prince Xing himself has little accumulation. He is the first generation of princes with a shallow foundation and limited financial resources. By establishing a vassal state, he has already taken over all the property of the palace, and with it
Give away your father-in-law's property to a great extent.
Where is the money to develop colonies?
So he kept shamelessly complaining to Emperor Hongzhi. Emperor Hongzhi naturally took good care of his younger brother, and often gave him money, food, weapons, and so on. This allowed Xingguo to survive.
This King Xing was not satisfied with the small number of colonies. He had a very strong desire for external expansion. On the one hand, he robbed the Spanish colonies.
For this reason, there was a conflict with the Spaniards. In the end, the Spaniards decided to give in and give up part of their colonies to Xingguo after much thought.
On the other hand, King Xing continued to expand into the interior of the African continent, competing for territory with other vassal states and colonies, and everyone basically gave in to him.
There was no way, Emperor Hongzhi's younger brother, it was impossible not to give him permission. If he didn't give Prince Xing face, Emperor Hongzhi's face still had to be given.
This also made King Xing feel confident. When it came to fighting for territory, Xingguo had always been the most ferocious and never gave in. Even pushing for an inch could not be used to describe King Xing's greed and tyranny.
Everyone has been pinching their noses, taking a step back to open up the world, not wanting to offend this King Xing, giving face to Emperor Hongzhi, and giving up some land. As long as it is not too ruthless, it is okay. Anyway, there are still many overseas colonies.
, especially the inland areas of the African continent are very vast and contain continental land.
However, this time, Xingguo went too far and directly wanted to annex the Golden Island Colony.
It is naturally impossible for the people of the Golden Island Colony to agree, and they will definitely resist to the end.
The owner of Jindao Colony, Saber Colonial Company, is itself a group of retired soldiers from the Ming Dynasty. Although the number is not too large, and the total population of the entire Jindao Colony is only more than 10,000, its combat effectiveness is not weak, and it is young and strong.
They are all made up of retired soldiers and have extremely strong combat effectiveness.
Although there are many people in Xingguo, if the two sides really fight, both sides will definitely suffer losses.
Thinking of this, Liu Jin quickly prepared his car and went to the palace to discuss this matter with Emperor Hongzhi.
This matter can be big or small.
To be honest, the impact of this incident is very bad.
You must know that the overseas vassals and colonies of the Ming Dynasty have always been very peaceful with each other. The territory is large enough. If there are conflicts over the territory, they will be resolved through mutual consultation. After the boundary line is demarcated, basically
It's settled now.
They argued against each other, that is, they had a quarrel at the negotiation table, and they were all red-faced. After signing the agreement, both parties acted in accordance with the agreement, and did not talk about infringing on the other party's territory. The exchanges between the two parties were basically the same. It's very friendly.
Now that Xingguo wants to annex Jindao by force, this will be a bad start.
When the time comes, other vassal states and colonies will follow suit. If there are powerful vassal states, the colonies will attack and annex the weak vassal states and colonies.
If this continues, there will be complete chaos overseas. When the major vassal states and colonies join forces with each other, it is hard to say whether the war will last for decades or even hundreds of years.
The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period lasted for hundreds of years, and there were hundreds of overseas colonial vassal states. It is possible that the war lasted for thousands of years.
This is not in line with the original intention at the beginning. It will also give other foreign enemies an opportunity to take advantage of it, give foreign enemies a chance to grow and develop, and will also cause their own strength to be continuously consumed internally.
You must know that Ningguo is such a powerful vassal state. The Shu Kingdom in the Goa area next to its capital is small and weak, but Ningguo does not dare to use force against Shu, let alone annex Shu.
When King Ning saw the King of Shu, he would call him uncle and be respectful, let alone annex him by force.
There are many situations similar to this. There are hundreds of colonial vassal states overseas. Most of the colonies and vassal states are actually small in land area and weak in power.
However, those large vassal states and colonies would never think of annexing these weak vassal states and colonies. They would negotiate whenever possible.
You, Prince Xing, are actually taking the lead in doing such a thing now. Will those weak vassal states and colonies still have a sense of security in the future?
What's more, even if Xingguo annexes Jindao, it is actually a small country among many vassal states and colonies. From time to time, other colonies and vassal states can annex your Xingguo?
The overseas colonies and vassal states of the Ming Dynasty paid attention to the first-come, first-served principle, rather than the size of their strength or the vastness of their territory. If this is the case.
Large colonies and vassal states such as Ning State, Western United Trading Company, South African United Trading Company, and Chu State have already annexed countless vassal states and colonies.
Therefore, this head cannot be opened. Once it is opened, it will break the rules and contracts that everyone has always abided by, and it will cause crisis and war between the colonies and the vassal country.
If it really gets to that point, things will definitely turn into chaos overseas and fights will break out.
There are many colonies and vassal states with conflicts. Everyone wants to occupy the good places. If it is done by force, the South African colony is probably the favorite.
They are powerful and have a strong military, and they can also produce warships, arms and weapons, etc., so your rejuvenation of the country is nothing.
Speaking from a small perspective, if Xingguo and Jindao fight, a lot of people will definitely die. We all go overseas to live a good life, not to bleed to death internally in vain.
No matter from which aspect, we are determined not to allow a fight between Xingguo and Jindao. This will not benefit the overseas colonies and vassal states at all. It will only bring bad influence and a bad situation, which will make the weak The vassal state and the colonies became extremely dangerous, and there was no sense of security at all.
Liu Jin hurried to the palace, preparing to discuss the matter with Emperor Hongzhi.
Emperor Hongzhi must come forward in this matter and ask him to order King Xing to withdraw his troops and not invade Jindao. Other than that, the others are probably of no use. King Xing will not stop.
Relying on his status as the younger brother of Emperor Hongzhi, he has always been shameless. He never repays money and food when he asks people to borrow money. He is also fierce in grabbing land, as if he is really powerful.
In fact, everyone is just letting you go. Those who dare to go overseas to open colonies and vassal states are all heroes of the world, people with ambition and strength.
But it was also because of everyone's concession that King Xing developed an aggressive character. He even thought about annexing Jindao by force. This was something that no one could accept or allow.
Perhaps Jindao itself is not strong, but other colonies and vassal states will not sit idly by and will secretly support Jindao.
There are many people who dislike you, Xingwang. If you make this bad start, how will this weak colony survive in the future?
You must know that many vassal states and colonies are actually only the size of a state, with a population of only twenty or thirty thousand people, and a military strength of only a few hundred or thousands.
Because it is surrounded by colonies and vassal states, there is nothing to worry about and you can live a comfortable life. However, if you have to worry about the invasion and annexation of powerful colonies and vassal states around you, life will not be easy.
Emperor Hongzhi must be asked to severely rebuke King Xing. He has gone too far and is breaking the rules of the game and overseas rules.
Meanwhile here on Golden Island in the Gulf of Guinea in West Africa.
Although it was still dark at night, the people here in the Golden Island Colony were not sleepy at all, and the port was brightly lit, with a large number of torches and fires lit.
The people of the Saber Colonial Trading Company were building fortifications, forts, etc. overnight, preparing for a good fight with the people of the Xingguo Colony.
"Fuck~"
"This King Xing really thinks that we are afraid of him. He actually wants to annex our Golden Island without fear of breaking his own teeth."
Li Meng looked at the busy scene and couldn't help but cursed.
Originally, the life of Jindao was very comfortable. The people of their Saber Colony settled here and built this Jindao with their own hands. It slowly developed and now has the good life.
Who knew that King Xing actually wanted to come directly to pick peaches and annex Jindao? He also sent people to say that he would give everyone a dukedom if they were willing to merge with Xingguo.
Damn Duke, this Duke of Xingguo has a hammer, the poor beggar King Xing is really shameless.
He also joined Xingguo, and what the heck, this Golden Island was developed through the joint efforts of all our major families. It is our foundation and must be passed on to future generations.
"It would be best not to fight. Fighting will cost lives and a lot of money."
"I just hope that after the news reaches Ming Dynasty, the emperor of Ming Dynasty can stand up and uphold justice."
Huang Chong looked at the sea outside and was also worried. What he hoped most now was that the Emperor of Heaven would come out to deliver justice.
"I see no hope. Prince Xing is the emperor's younger brother. He must be helping his younger brother. We still have to be prepared."
Li Meng shook his head, not having much hope for this. Everyone knew about the relationship between King Xing and Emperor Hongzhi.
