第1056章 让英国对法国开战,怎么样?

“欧罗巴正在打仗,已经死了很多人了,田地荒芜,粮食歉收,许多王国的粮食依赖于进口。”
Anna said confidently.
"Every year, our country transports hundreds of thousands of tons of grain, distributing them to Italy, Spain, Portugal, and the Kingdom of France."
“所以,陛下如果您想要征服欧罗巴,只需要掐断航海,欧罗巴诸国立刻陷入巨大的粮食危机。”
张凡有些不可思议地看着安娜。
Is what Anna said true?
Yes it is!
16世纪到18世纪,地球正处在小冰河时期,不仅仅是大明朝面临着严寒,欧洲的局势也非常的严峻。
欧洲刚从文艺复兴中挣脱了教廷的思想束缚,文学和思想正在大放异彩,世俗正在向神权挑战。
例如现在正在打的三十年战争,就是新教国家和天主教国家之间的战争。
新教也属于基督教,是当年路德的宗教改革的产物。
例如荷兰、英国这些都是新教国家,新教国家更加世俗,后世的美国也是新教国家。
此时的神圣罗马帝国是典型的天主教,哈布斯堡家族和教皇一条裤子里,和新教国家开战。
This war lasted for thirty years and is known as the Thirty Years' War.
The Thirty Years' War ended with victory for Protestant nations, leading to the disintegration of the Holy Roman Empire. During the war, the Catholic nation of France took advantage of the situation and emerged as the most powerful country in Europe.
This was the beginning of the various adventures of Louis XIV after ascending to the throne.
This war essentially crippled the Habsburg family.
The authority of the Pope in secular matters also rapidly declined.
Western countries also developed this consciousness during this stage.
Therefore, Louis XIV later proclaimed his famous quote: "I am the state."
What impact did this war have on the population of Europe?
战前,神圣罗马帝国(德意志)总人口差不多1600万左右。
战后,神圣罗马帝国总人口下降到1000万左右,仅仅德意志就死了600万左右。
The Habsburg family's army had approximately 500,000 deaths in battle, while the rest were civilians, primarily dying of starvation.
When it comes to war, the army does not absorb food in a straightforward manner, but instead takes all available food to ensure that the soldiers are well-fed and capable of fighting, regardless of the fate of the civilians.
The German region has been largely devastated.
Various countries are also experiencing a food crisis.
The Dutch have a large number of merchant ships and are making a fortune by trading grain all over Europe.
During this time, the Privy Council in England issued an order to ban the export of grain because they did not have enough to eat.
Later on, there was no other way but to go to the American continent to import food, slowly easing the food crisis.
As a time traveler, Zhang Fan naturally had some knowledge of this.
But why is Anna so positive?
Isn't this cheeky girl European?
You are already telling me how to eliminate Europe so quickly, what do you want to do?
Chongzhen stared at Anna's face without blinking for more than ten seconds.
He wants to see Anna's true intentions from her eyes.
Is this little girl playing some kind of trick?
Does she want to incite me to launch an expedition against Europa and then collapse the economy of the Great Ming Dynasty?
大明经济一旦垮掉,就养不起海军了,荷兰人就可以再次乘势回来?
Well, that's great! This little clever one seems to have thought it all through!
安娜眨巴眨巴眼睛,看皇帝这样注视着自己,有些害羞,脸都有些红了。
She said nervously, "Your Majesty, why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"
"Oh, no, go ahead."
"As long as we cut off Europa's food supply, we can achieve twice the result with half the effort. Oh, by the way, our company is responsible for transporting most of the food."
“当然了,我没有权力让公司的船停下来,不过陛下可以派一些远征队去征讨西班牙和葡萄牙,还有英格兰,只要把这些地方控制住,问题不大。”
崇祯说道:“等等,朕有一点想不明白,你是荷兰人吗?”
"Yes, I am."
"Then why are you telling me how to conquer Europa?"
"Your Majesty, don't you want to conquer it?"
“I want to conquer, so you tell me how to conquer?”
“Is there a problem with this?”
What the heck!
Of course, there is a problem. Who are you to me? How dare you teach me here?
Chongzhen laughed: "Aren't you afraid that I will destroy your Netherlands along with it?"
Anna seemed to have just remembered this question. She smiled and said, "Your Majesty is currently cooperating with us. Why would you take action against allies? Your Majesty is a person of great integrity. If Your Majesty hastily breaks the agreement, how can other countries trust and join the Silver Bill and Spice Accord?"
Anna, this girl may seem straightforward and assertive in her actions, but she is definitely skilled at identifying the key points of an issue.
She can hit the nail on the head with just a few words.
It is impossible for Chongzhen to take action against a country that has signed the silver and spice agreement because it is crucial to establishing the world order that he wants to create.
If the Dutch did not take action, he would have no reason to declare war on them, leaving the Ottoman Empire confused and losing trust in the Ming Dynasty.
那接下来,他的银钞香料协定信用基本上推行不下去了。
Wait! Aren't the Americans fighting everywhere?
Why doesn't Ming Dynasty do the same?
大明朝的银钞香料协定,才刚起步,而且大明朝现在也没有覆盖全球的军事势力,科技水平也无法和21世纪相提并论。
Nature cannot be compared longitudinally.
Just like you cannot compare the peak of the Tang Dynasty with China in later generations.
如果一定要对比,后世的中国在军事、经济、科技方面当然完全碾压大唐巅峰时期。
But this is not correct. One is a country from the 21st century, while the other is an empire from the classical era.
If we want to compare, it should be done crosswise, comparing countries that exist during the same time period.
During this era, there is no country in the world that can defeat the Ming Dynasty at this moment. Translation: "
然而,时代是在不停变化的,科技是在不停发展的。
Europe has already acquired steam engines, and if Europe is not thoroughly suppressed, it is also possible for Europe to take a detour and catch up.
Of course, Zhang Fan has already taken action.
For example, supporting Britain to contain the European continent.
With the current situation, this move is definitely effective.
The Thirty Years' War is about to end, and with the downfall of the Habsburg family, the Bourbon family is set to rise in France.
At this point, the British should already have a large sum of money and are starting to build an army in the English Channel to tell the French in Normandy, "Normandy has always been the territory of England", right?
If the British do not understand this point, then I must go and remind Wheeler in a friendly manner.
I need to find a reason, yes, find a reason to offend France on behalf of the Ming Dynasty, and then have the British intervene to restore face for the Ming Dynasty by declaring war on France!
If the Brits don't behave, cut off their trade routes.
Yes, that's the way to go!
They've taken advantage of me, now they have to work!
