Chapter 1249 The Threat of Qian Dynasty
New Spain Governor's District, Mexico City.
Spain has colonized America for more than a hundred years. The Governor of New Spain, as the strongest Governor of the Governor of the United States, has become quite developed in its capital, Mexico City.
There are more than 100,000 people gather here, with various commercial shops in the city, and a large number of handicrafts outside the city. It is the largest city in Central America.
As the former maritime overlord, Spain's strength has indeed declined significantly in the past decade.
However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. In terms of national strength, population, economy, and military, the Spanish Empire should still be the first in Europe.
The world overlord declines from the position of overlord, and there is a process that does not collapse suddenly.
After being imposed trade sanctions by the Killing North Korea, Spain's domestic economy had been in chaos for a period of time, and domestic inflation reached a terrifying level.
However, as time went by, the market was adjusted, Spain began to look for alternatives from Linguo and developed its own handicraft industry. Domestic commodities gradually became rich, ending the situation of too much money and low goods, and inflation was alleviated.
For a hundred years, Spain, as the maritime overlord, had some similarities between his relationship with China and China-US relations in another world.
The US imperialists started printing money machines and used the US dollar to purchase Chinese products. A large number of Chinese goods entered the US market, making the United States abundant supplies and curbing inflation.
The Spanish dig silver in the Americas and then use it to buy Chinese goods. The more goods they buy, the cheaper the domestic prices will be.
After the severance of diplomatic relations between Ganchao and Spain, Spain's silver was unable to buy goods directly from Ganchao, which led to their increase in the price of Ganchao's goods. However, they were used to buying and buying in China and had no production capacity, which caused the Spanish economy to collapse, prices rose rapidly, and domestic wealth was looted by other countries.
Britain, France and Portugal made more money.
Now Spain and Ganchao are still in a state of hostility, but Spain has recovered from its utmost success. The rise of domestic handicrafts has enriched domestic goods. In addition, looking for alternative products from Britain and France has also made them no longer rely on trade with Ganchao.
Although the quality of goods made in Spain and purchased from Britain and France is not as good as that of dry-court products, porcelain, tea, and cloth are not necessary products, and the quality is a bit poor, and it doesn’t matter much.
At this time, in Mexico City, the Governor's Mansion.
Grand Duke Philip, the governor of New Spain, smoked a Cuban cigar and looked at Mexico City through the window.
Commander Philip stood behind him, holding a book he had written with great painstaking efforts, and was reading for Grand Duke Philip.
"The land and resources in this world are limited, but the population is growing at a geometric rate. There are so many Chinese people and they reproduce quickly. If they are not curbed, they will come sooner or later and snatch our resources and land. This world is a zero-sum game. If the Chinese take more, we will share less." Philip said seriously: "Based on these theories, the Chinese will invade Europe sooner or later. If we want to eliminate the threat from the Chinese, we must eliminate the Chinese."
Philip's book, called Huang Peril Theory, aims to establish a complete set of logical and theoretical systems to allow Europe to understand the harm of China, and find a theoretical basis for their invasion, so that all countries have no guilt in their invasion of China. The purpose is to invade.
Grand Duke Philip nodded, agreeing with Philip's point of view.
Why is it the Yellow Peril theory, not the Black Peril theory or the Red Peril theory? Because in European history, it was almost destroyed by yellow people.
Moreover, the land and resources of this world are indeed limited. In the experience of Philip and Grand Duke Philip, the whole world is indeed in a state of zero-sum game.
"Well! I will fund ten thousand Mexican silver coins for your book to be printed and published, so that he can spread it in Europe as quickly as possible!" Grand Duke Philip turned around and praised.
Philip said: "That's so thankful to you, Grandpa!"
Philip said: "What you said makes sense. The land and resources in this world are limited, but the population is growing at a geometric rate. If our Spanish Empire cannot obtain more colonies and resources, and the population will grow to its limit in the future, the empire will collapse! Your research is very good, but theory must be combined with practice and continue to expand the colony, and you cannot relax!"
Philip hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Lord Da Gong, I have sent several expeditions to penetrate the territory of the Apache people in the north and spread the smallpox virus. I believe that in less than a year, they will collapse due to the plague. When they all die from the plague, we can annex their territory at a very small price!"
Grand Duke Philip nodded, "The British and French are expanding in North America very quickly, and we cannot fall behind!"
...
At this time, while Grand Duke Philip and Commander Philip discussed the threat theory of the Qian Dynasty, and the rapid expansion of the colonies and accelerated the division of America, Shi Kai controlled the captured sailing warship and was sailing south along the west coast of Mexico.
The sailboat met several Spanish merchant ships along the way, but they did not notice any abnormality. They greeted him from a distance with flags and passed by.
The sailing boat sailed south for five or six days before sailing around the southern end of the Baja California Peninsula, then turned north and sailed along the coastline to Kingsoft County.
After Shi Kai discussed with Zhao Ming, Zhao Ming immediately returned to Yindu and reported Shi Kai's plan to Jiang Jiaren.
Xinshang Company immediately held a review meeting, and everyone agreed with Shi Kai's plan.
Jiang Jiaren immediately chose some sailors who could drive boats and gunmen who could fire guns, and asked them to go to the mouth of the Dashang River to meet with Shikai.
At this time, the Spanish colonists in the cabin had surrendered in despair. Shi Kai immediately left two people, and the remaining people sent troops to take them back to Yindu, and then set sail in a hurry with the sailors and gunners.
While sailing to Jinshan County, Jiang Jiaren mobilized in Yindu.
He knew very well that once the new merchant regained Kingsoft County, he would start another war with Spain, so he ordered the tribes to prepare for defense against the attack of the White Demon, and sent the starter to contact the indigenous tribes such as Wichita, Crick, Cheroki, Shawnee, and other indigenous tribes to make an appointment to fight the White Demon together.
In the past three years, the new merchants have not only established influence in the Apache Alliance, but also sent personnel to other tribal alliances to help cure the plague and spread religion.
Jiang Jiaren was in charge of logistics in Yindu and contacted allies, while Zhao Ming led more than 10,000 people through the jungle and marched to Jinshan by land.
