Chapter 1158 Counter-Espionage

"What the Emperor said is absolutely true. I'm afraid this Western Territory will be in chaos for a while, but I think it can definitely make the Western Territory even more chaotic."

The sky was getting dark, and the street lights outside the imperial study room turned on.

Dong An couldn't help but look at the night inside the imperial city with his peripheral vision, and put forward his own suggestions.

During his time in Petersburg, he and the Fourth Supervisory Council provided mutual support and collected a lot of intelligence about Western and Turkish countries.

Based on this information, he deduced the relationship between the Western and Turkish countries.

"Really? Let's talk about it." Zhao Xu showed great interest after hearing this.

In fact, he vaguely guessed what it would be, but because he had very little information, he did not want to make random inferences.

Dong An organized his language and said slowly, "Your Majesty should know one thing better than I do. That is, there are countries and nations with a great-power mentality in every part of the world, just like Persia. Even if they surrender to Tusman , but the pride in their hearts will still lead them to get rid of their rule. There are two places in the Western Territory that have the mentality of a big country, one is the Gauls and the other is the Germans. "

Zhao Xu nodded, which was consistent with his thoughts.

"However, because Britain is currently the largest country in the West, and it has seized on the contradiction between the West and the Russian Empire, and kidnapped many Western countries, Frank and Prussia have also been forced to follow Britain under pressure. Of course, they are afraid of us. It is also one of the reasons that unites them," Dong An continued to explain to Zhao Xu.

"Do you want me to improve relations and establish contacts with these two countries?" Zhao Xu interjected. .

"Yes." Dong An seemed to be firm in his thoughts.

Several missions and numerous dangers gave him a shrewd self-confidence.

He continued, "Of course, Frank and Prussia will not agree to establish diplomatic relations with us. After all, the Russians are different from them. To them, the Russians are barbarians from the north, and they are the masters of the Western Territory. Xi Tufu has more responsibilities and is very hostile to us. "

"But regardless of whether they are willing to establish diplomatic relations with us or not, we must make a gesture of being willing to interact with them." At this time, Zhao Xu and Dong An almost said the same thing.

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Zhao Xu said, "I understand what you mean. Your Foreign Affairs Department should do this. If Frank and Prussia are willing to improve their relations with us, that would be the best. Even if they fail, it will alienate their relationship with Britain. "

What Britain is most taboo about now is the birth of a second disobedient Rus' country in the West.

Frankia and Prussia are the most likely to become the second Russian state.

In fact, if it were not for Dasong and the Rus Kingdom, the relationship between these three countries in the Western Territories would be like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

In essence, the three countries did not trust each other, but they were temporarily united because of their common interests.

Therefore, as Dong An said, he does not need to force the establishment of diplomatic relations with these two countries, he only needs to show his active desire to establish diplomatic relations with these two countries.

Guba

In this way, rifts will inevitably arise between the three countries, preventing them from in-depth cooperation.

It would be better if the two countries hesitated even a little bit when facing Dasong's olive branch instead of resolutely opposing it. The relationship between the three countries would be more likely to break down.

Because in the current atmosphere of the Western world, if you are not completely opposed to the great praise, it means that you are not completely opposed to the great praise!

"Yes, Your Majesty." Dong An bowed in response.

The two chatted for a while, and Dong An resigned from Zhao Xu and left the study.

Walking out along the bright corridor of Wuji Palace illuminated by street lights, Dong An took a deep breath of air.

It had been more than a year since he had been away from Dasong, and he missed everything about him here.

What excites him even more is the rapid changes in Dasong.

In just one year, Yancheng has become somewhat strange to him.

There are many high-rise buildings under construction in the city.

The countryside has also changed a lot.

When he passed by a village, he even saw steam tractors, steam harvesters and other agricultural machinery in the village.

After asking, he learned that these machines were purchased with funds raised by the village and belonged to the collective farm.

Such collective farms were part of the scheme of large-scale farm production in Dasung.

A single family in Dasong does not have the financial resources of a big businessman to hire farm workers and purchase machinery to maintain a large farm.

If we don't find a solution for them, these farmers will still stay in the traditional agriculture of small farmers, and they will also be the poorest people in the future.

As a result, the imperial court launched collective farms.

A large farm was set aside for them, and every villager got a share of the dividends. After all, Dasong now had a lot of land, so he only had to worry about having a few people, not a lot of land.

Therefore, just one year's dividends from the collective farm made the people in the village much richer, and their income was no less than that of the people who entered the factory.

The people who had money also became wealthy. According to the plan of the imperial court, large two-story villas with gardens in front and extolling the traditional architectural style were built in the countryside.

This made the villagers who first built red-tile houses in the village envious. Some people simply smashed their red-tile houses that were only a few years old and imitated other villagers to build villas in this new style.

At the same time, due to proper planning, these country villas are arranged neatly, and cement roads are paved in front of each house, making the countryside seem to have caught up with the progress of Dasong.
