[Meeting with King Leopold II of Belgium in 1329]

Emperor Hua is very concerned about the African issue, and the current craze for dividing the African continent has not yet formed.

If Leopold II was allowed to win the Congo, it would soon stimulate all the great powers to follow the example and go to Africa to grab territory.

Once the great powers increase their efforts to send troops to Africa, military strongholds will be formed.

In this way, it will become a huge obstacle to China's African policy. The Emperor of China regards Africa, Central Asia and West Asia as one! The cost of these poor areas is not the same as that of the future.

Emperor Hua’s goal is to take down all the land that the army can seize, and then compete with the great powers with its huge geographical advantage, so that the economy can catch up as soon as possible.

This macro plan has so far only allowed China to take down a North Korea. Siberia and Central Asia. North Korea is relatively stable. After all, the great powers rely on warships to travel to the Far East to grab a North Korea. This possibility is very small, but Siberia and Central Asia are very unstable, especially Central Asia. In Siberia, what China has to face is just a Tsarist Russian Empire that is in a dim late. In a period of transformation, it may continue to survive and may be transformed into another form of Tsarist Russian Empire. However, in Central Asia, China will face the siege of the powerful British people, as well as the UK, Tsarist Russian, France and the Ottoman Turkish Empire that it may face.

The situation in the Indochina Peninsula is also very serious. China's strength is limited, and it is very difficult to deal with Central Asia alone. If Britain and France take advantage of the momentum in the Indochina Peninsula and turn the entire Indochina Peninsula into a colony of the British and French empires like in history, then China's economic development will not only be restricted, because if France obtains colonial power on the Indochina Peninsula, it will seriously threaten China's sea route expansion.

What's even more terrifying is that if China loses control of the Indochina Peninsula, it will send at least two divisions of field troops to garrison in Yunnan and Guangxi to prevent the offensives that the great powers may launch at any time.

There is also traditional pressure. Since ancient times, the southern part of China has been dependent on the rule of China. If the control of this area is lost, it will have a huge impact on the hearts of the entire China and may even shake the rule of the Emperor. Others will think that China is not as good as the Qing Dynasty. At least, before the Qing court was destroyed, the countries on the Indochina Peninsula still regarded the Qing court as the sect leader.

If you take a wrong step, you will lose everything.

King Leopold II of Belgium met with Emperor Hua in the formal living room.

"Hello, Your Majesty." Emperor Hua took the initiative to salute Leopold II politely.

Leopold II was obviously not as polite as the Emperor of China imagined. In fact, Leopold II finally met with the Emperor of China because the Chinese state said it would withdraw the Chinese students. If it were not for the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Belgium, Valter Frell Aalbon would not have done so.

"Hello, I didn't expect that the emperor from the huge empire in the East was just such a young child. It was true that he saw it." Leopold II glanced at Emperor Hua with a little contempt, and his tone was a little frivolous.

The cute CEO didn't care about these details, nor did he think about being friends with these powerful monarchs. He smiled and stopped talking.

Because he was invited by someone, he didn't come to him on his own initiative, Emperor Hua was waiting for the other party to take the move first.

"European industry is developing rapidly. I admire the fact that Emperor Hua has this vision and let a large number of international students come to our Belgian Kingdom." Leopold II said.

"Thank you for your praise. The industry in the Kingdom of Belgium is indeed very good." Emperor Hua said neither humble nor arrogantly.

"Although the Kingdom of Belgium is not a big country, we are definitely a strong country. If the Emperor has time, I hope the Emperor of Belgium will go to various parts of the Kingdom of Belgium. Our country will not only have two fast-growing economic regions, Brussels and Antwerp." Leopold II said.

"If you have time, I also hope to go and take a look everywhere. Thank you for your advice." Emperor Hua smiled. He was secretly funny. He didn't know what the Belgian Kingdom would be selling, so he quickly talked about the serious business.

King Leopold II of Belgium made a lot of noise and said a lot of things, which roughly meant how powerful the Kingdom of Belgium was. Finally, he said: "I already know the request that the Emperor of China put forward to the Prime Minister of my country to provide convenience for international students in China. I now officially agree to establish an intermediate institution that provides convenience for international students in China on behalf of the Government of the Kingdom of Belgium."

"That's very good, thank you." Emperor Hua couldn't help but smile, feeling that this person was interesting, and if you compromise, you would compromise. Are you tired of saying so much nonsense? At the same time, Emperor Hua also felt more and more that the blood of compromise was left in the bones of these great powers.

Whether it was Napoleon or the original history, the later battle against the German Emperor and the second battle between Hitra were encouraged by the air of compromise.

"Goodbye." After saying this last word, Leopold II, the king of the Kingdom of Belgium, left without looking back.

This made Emperor Hua, Catherine and Princess Katrina Kaif really feel angry and funny. It was a meal time. They originally thought that after the business talks, they would arrange a state banquet or something.

Princess Katrina Kaif hooked the hand of Emperor Hua and walked out, whispering: "This old boy is interesting, he is so rude."

"I'm angry." Emperor Hua shrugged disapprovingly, "Why, have you not eaten enough Belgian food yet?"

"Haha, no, I just feel so rude and a little angry." Princess Katrina Kaif smiled.

"One day, the monarchs of these small countries are not even qualified to eat with the Emperor of China." Catherine couldn't help but say.

The cute president nodded and said, "Not bad, but not only the monarchs of small countries, but all the monarchs are not qualified to have a meal with me."

Princess Katrina Kaifu was not surprised by Emperor Hua's words, because Emperor Hua had repeatedly expressed his idea of ​​dominating the world in front of her in private, but this was the first time that Katherine heard similar remarks from Emperor Hua, and looked at His Majesty's side face in surprise, while Princess Katrina Kaifu was peeking at Catherine's side face.

When they returned to the inn where the president temporarily lived, Gege, Lee Tae-hee, Zeng Siping, Sophia, and a group of people were eating hot pot.

The cute president sweated, "It's such a hot day, and you still eat hot pot? There is no meal that can be normal now."

Princess Jie smiled sweetly, "For Your Majesty, it seems that only cooking and eating is normal, right? Why are you back so soon? Didn't you eat in the Belgian Palace?"

Princess Katrina Kaif roughly explained the situation of Emperor Hua and Leopold II. Princess Jie said angrily: "It's so rude that Westerners have not evolved completely."

puff.

The cute CEO looked at Jie Ge with a smile, "But the theory of evolution was first proposed by Westerners?"

"Then, most of them have not evolved completely." Jie Ge Ge said unconvincedly, "It just so happens that your majesty, come and eat hot pot quickly and smell it, it smells so good."

The cute CEO sat down with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the Tsarist Russian Foreign Minister Duke Maxim Kanunikov arrived in the Kingdom of Belgium today, saying that he would pass by the Kingdom of Belgium and return to China." Wang Zhankui whispered to Emperor Hua's ear. This was what the Emperor Hua asked Wang Zhankui to ask the people from the Bureau of Statistics to pay attention to. Last time in London, England, neither Britain nor Tsarist Russia had contacted the Emperor Hua in private, which made Emperor Hua unhappy.

Princess Katrina Kaifu asked softly what was going on, and the cute president told Princess Katrina Kaifu.

Princess Katrina Kaf didn't expect that His Majesty would take the initiative to meet the foreign minister of Tsarist Russia. "Your Majesty should take the initiative to meet the foreign minister of Tsarist Russia? In this way, will we seem to be afraid of them?"

The cute CEO smiled dismissively, "I'm not afraid of British people. Why do they think we're afraid of him?"
