The United States had originally tried its best to face the threat posed by the Chinese nation. However, they always felt that the Chinese nation was limited by natural conditions such as population and roads.
But when the war actually happened, they discovered that they had seriously underestimated the strength of the Chinese nation.
They also formally recognized how big the gap between the two sides was.
And they are trying every possible means to steal all the scientific and technological achievements they can from the Tang Dynasty and China.
Of course, they can't steal the real secrets.
But some technologies that were not strictly defended were actually stolen by them.
Of course, the technologies they can steal are basically technologies that have been widely used in China and will soon be eliminated.
But even so, these technologies are still much higher than them.
The stolen technological data allowed their technology to advance rapidly in many fields.
At this time, they realized more deeply how big the technological gap between them and China was.
The most outstanding masterpiece of the United States is a hydroelectric power station group they stole from the Tang Dynasty.
They went through all kinds of difficulties and dangers to steal it from the Tang Dynasty and transport it out.
Based on the stolen power station group, they finally successfully developed a power station.
Now, they have united the people of the United States to have access to electricity.
When it comes to living standards, they are naturally not as good as those in China.
But people's lives are getting better and better.
Because after all, the land here is fertile, and as long as people are not lazy to a certain level, they will not go hungry.
And with a little diligence, not only will you not have to worry about food and drink, but you will also be slightly wealthy.
Of course, in terms of business, they are far behind China.
There are not many places where they can do business.
Normally, only within them.
For example, in the Tang Dynasty and those European countries and regions, people only recognized the Chinese Commercial Bank, the Tang Dynasty or the Huaxia Kingdom.
Their products simply cannot be sold in these places.
In fact, many people in their united countries use products from the Chinese Trading Company or the Huaxia Kingdom.
In such an environment, their business would not be able to develop without more than ten years of accumulation.
After several years of development, the United States has grown very fast.
This made them feel that the gap between them and the Chinese nation was getting farther and farther.
Well, the truth is that it is so disappointing.
The more they progress, the more they feel powerless, sad and desperate.
Without reaching a certain height, it is impossible to see clearly how much higher China is than them.
If they keep developing like this, I believe it won't take long.
Once the Huaxia Kingdom stabilizes, their territory will be completely absorbed and digested, and the people will be completely stabilized.
Then the next step is to free up your hands to deal with them.
Although they have dug out all the roads.
They united the countries and formed a unique, artificially excavated wonder.
That is the periphery of their country, a circular artificial lake dozens of meters wide.
The entire country is surrounded by artificial lakes.
You need to take a boat to get in and out.
Of course, there are bridges.
But they are all suspension bridges.
If China wants to pass through the suspension bridge, it can only be said that this road is impassable.
They set up layers of mechanisms on the suspension bridge, which can destroy the suspension bridge in an instant if necessary.
And their Huguo River, well, it can also be said to be Huguo Lake, is also equipped with layers of mechanisms.
In some areas, a large amount of oil is deployed, which can be poured into the lake water and ignited at any time.
At the same time, there are layers of arrangements to ensure that if the Chinese nation dares to invade from the waterway, it will be kept so that they cannot eat it and carry it around.
The same cannot be said for walking on a bridge.
And if you want to enter their United States, there are only two ways.
Their protection can be said to be impregnable.
But such protection is naturally not invincible.
If the Huaxia Kingdom is determined to capture them, there will naturally be many ways.
For example, people can fill in the lake artificially.
As long as they create a path, their natural dangers will be defeated.
You can also build floating bridges, etc., and there are many means of destruction.
On their own, they would not be able to defend themselves.
Therefore, they need allies.
Now, their allies are easy to find.
The Great Food Country, the Eastern Roman Empire, and the countries surrounding the Eastern Roman Empire are all their natural allies.
Because they are all weak.
Now, the United States is constantly sending envoys to contact them.
Constantly state the threat of China to them.
Then gradually, I gained their trust and the relationship between them became closer.
The United States actually has a certain level of mind and wisdom.
They did not keep it to themselves, but shared most of their stolen technology with other alliance countries.
Even their most precious gunpowder technology was brought out.
If there was no threat from China, they would naturally be unwilling to share such precious technology as gunpowder technology.
But now facing the threat of China, without the help of these allies, they will inevitably be destroyed by China.
Therefore, they were generous and made all those technologies public.
In this case, the strength of their allies will be greatly strengthened.
In the future, the strength of their alliance will become even stronger, and the chance of being able to resist the Huaxia Kingdom will increase by one point.
Of course, the United States is still facing various technical difficulties.
Now the United States has invited other alliance countries to form a common science and technology development alliance.
Prepare to overcome technological problems together.
Of course, the Science and Technology Alliance is still dominated by the United States and the Eastern Roman Empire.
After all, only scientific and technological talents in these two areas are the most advanced.
Especially the scientific and technological talents of the Eastern Roman Empire. In some aspects, their scientific and technological level is still higher than that of the United States.
After all, many people from their country go to China to study.
They learned many advanced technologies, and they passed these technologies back.
This move by Eastern Rome was tantamount to betraying the Chinese state.
Constans II, the king of the Eastern Roman Empire, actually had an extremely complicated heart.
Their cooperation with China was extremely pleasant.
If there were no Huaxia Kingdom, the people of their Eastern Roman Empire would probably still be living in dire straits.
And now, because they are very close to China, their development is also changing with each passing day.
Now, their comprehensive national strength has also improved a lot.
The religious power in their country has further retreated.
Because technology and religion are inherently at odds.
Their country is getting stronger and stronger.
However, after contacting the Family Alliance.
Constans II also truly felt the threat posed by China.
The Kingdom of China is really too powerful.
So powerful that it can easily crush them.
In the past, the great food country beat them as if they were their sons, occupying many of their territories.
But facing the Tang Dynasty's army, the Great Food Country was like meeting his own grandfather, being hung up and beaten.
The military strength of the Tang Dynasty was actually not as good as that of the Huaxia Kingdom.
The strength of the Huaxia Kingdom can be seen from this.
Once China frees up its hands, it will destroy the United States.
At that time, would China really not invade them?
Constans II felt more and more that their safety could not be based on the kindness of the other party.
Therefore, after thinking for a long time, Constans II made a difficult decision.
He quietly joined the Alliance of the United States.
Of course, he did not openly tear up the relationship with China.
Many of China's investments are still operating as usual in their country.
Constans II can now be said to have two boats.
In this way, he will have one more choice.
In the future, when that side gains power, he will be able to defect to that side.
Of course, this idea is a beautiful one.
But those who ride on two boats often cannot escape the consequences.
It's easy to break the egg.
…
Every move of the United States has actually always been under the control of China.
In China, the United States has deployed a large number of manpower to spy on intelligence.
And among the United States, isn't it true for China?
Moreover, it is much easier for the Chinese nation and the United States to deploy spies than it is for them.
Because of the general trend, anyone with two minds can see that China is much stronger than the United States.
In the future, there is a high possibility that China will annex the United States.
Taking a stand now will only benefit them in the future, not any harm.
Therefore, it is much easier to develop espionage personnel in the United States than it is for the United States to develop espionage personnel in China.
This information can be seen by the top brass of China.
On this day, Li Min rested in Wu Mei's room.
The clouds disappear and the rain falls, and the color shines brightly in the area.
Lying in Li Min's arms, Wu Meiniang couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, now we are uniting all the countries to form a secret alliance with the Arab Empire, the Eastern Roman Empire, and many other small countries."
"If they really form a strong alliance, it will be very detrimental to our plans!"
Hearing Wu Meiniang's words, Li Min couldn't help laughing and said: "Meiniang, you can rest assured. In my eyes, their alliance is just a chicken and a dog, completely vulnerable."
"This family alliance is very capable. After the construction of the Xinlu Kingdom comes to an end, I will free up my hands and capture them first, and then build a new empire."
The reason why we want to build a new empire is not to incorporate all the territory into the territory of the Huaxia Kingdom.
This is because Li Min knew very well that if a country's territory is too large, I believe that within a few generations, the country will fall apart due to management problems.
If this is the case, it would be better to establish multiple countries from the beginning.
The emperors of these countries are all their own children.
In this way, they are all a nation of brothers.
Even if they start a war in the future, the final winner will still be their own people.
Of course, this situation is naturally something Li Min doesn't want to see.
But this kind of thing will not change according to people's will.
Li Min could only arrange everything as well as possible.
As for the funeral, the children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, so Li Min can't care so much.
When Wu Meiniang heard this, her eyes couldn't help but light up.
Because what the emperor said was to establish a new country on the territory of the United States.
Rather than incorporating it into the Chinese state.
This means that there will be another prince to inherit this country.
At the beginning, Li Min had already told her that he would conquer a large territory and pass it on to his heirs.
Wu Meiniang naturally believed in Li Min's promise.
But for many things, the plan may be good, but when implemented, problems of one kind or another may arise.
Wu Meiniang's first child was a daughter.
My son was born a little late.
Above him, there are several brothers.
For example, if the United States is captured this time, it will be Xu Huisheng's prince Li Rui's turn.
Next time, I wonder if it will be her son's turn.
But now it seems that the problem is not big.
Because the development speed of Huaxia Kingdom was completely beyond her expectation.
Wu Meiniang is an ambitious woman.
Otherwise, in the original historical trajectory, she would not have become the only female emperor in ancient history.
In this world, she actually has the same ambition.
As for Emperor Li Min, he actually didn't care much about government affairs.
Unless it is a major matter, some small matters will be directly delegated.
But unfortunately, the system established by the emperor is very perfect.
Even if Wu Meiniang wanted to seize power, she couldn't.
Moreover, the emperor is truly wise, mighty, and talented, and nothing can be hidden from him.
This also made Wu Meiniang feel in awe and she was willing to submit to her.
Now, she only hopes that China will become stronger and stronger.
She could win a piece of land as soon as possible and let her son inherit it.
But Wu Meiniang wanted to gain the initiative in this area.
She had been thinking about this question for a long time and never dared to ask it.
Because this issue is too sensitive.
If you are not careful, it is very likely that you will be jealous of the emperor.
Wuqing is the most imperial family!
But tonight, Wu Meiniang felt that this was a good time.
So I couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, can I ask the Emperor for something?"
Li Min laughed and said, "Meiniang, just say whatever you want. We have been husband and wife for many years, don't you still understand me?"
"There is no need to have any taboos here. You know I don't pay attention to these things!"
Hearing the emperor's words, Wu Meiniang felt happy and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, I just want to ask for a fief for the emperor. How about fiefing it in the Eastern Roman Empire?"
This time, the emperor was in a good mood and made it clear that he would not blame him.
The opportunity was very rare, so Wu Meiniang directly expressed her thoughts without any cover-up.
