Super Chief

Chapter 737: Target-Pacific

In fact, after the Great China Empire regained Mexico City and the northern half of the West Indies, the Kingdom of Spain did not fail to use force to reclaim these territories that were originally "owned" by them. However, due to the serious internal differences, the Kingdom of Spain did not choose to use force in the first place.

   And when Carlos IV was firmly seated as the king and decided to declare war on the Great Chinese Empire, the political situation in Europe changed dramatically.

  To declare war on the Great China Empire across the Atlantic, the Kingdom of Spain must make various preparations. Whether it's the mobilization of warships or the supply of various materials, it will take time.

   So when the Spanish Kingdom's fleet was ready to send troops to North America, time had quietly arrived in July 1789. And in the middle of this month, Carlos IV’s godfather, the Kingdom of France, broke out in a great revolution.

   The significance of the French Revolution is unquestionable, and its historical importance is definitely not under the American war alone.

  As a European army power, the Great Paris, the capital of the Kingdom of France, suddenly broke out a great revolution, which is undoubtedly equivalent to a magnitude ten earthquake for the whole of Europe.

In fact, there is no difference between France and Spain at this time. The Seven Years War and the War of Independence have long caused a heavy economic burden on this country. The French kingdom’s fiscal deficit is so high that it is scary, and the debt is more than 2 billion. franc!

As the so-called house leak happened to rain overnight, a drought that spread across the country broke out in France in 1786. Just before the French had recovered from this severe drought, three years later, in the spring of 1789, the Kingdom of France again A severe drought broke out.

   The Kingdom of France is now in a situation of natural and man-made disasters.

   In addition, the mentally disabled Louis XVI forcibly increased taxes, which aroused the anger of ordinary people in France.

   So, a great revolution spreading across the country broke out without warning.

   Needless to say the influence of the French Revolution, anyway, when the French Revolution broke out, Carlos IV of the Spanish Bourbon dynasty, under the flicker of Godoy, Spain, brazenly joined the war against the French Revolution. In any case, Carlos IV's blood is also flowing from the Bourbon dynasty.

   Compared to the safety of the Spanish mainland, the Governor General of New Spain is nothing.

   Anyway, the French Revolution that broke out in July 1789 completely disrupted the political situation in Europe. Of course, the short French giant has not yet begun to emerge. Once the short French giant stands up, the whole of Europe will tremble about it.

   Can these things matter to me?

   This is what Shi Xiong said when he held a high-level meeting in Beijing.

   This sentence also made many high-ranking empires attending the meeting laugh.

   The vast Atlantic Ocean is the best natural barrier for the Great China Empire. In the past, in order to establish the empire, Shi Xiong invested most of the financial resources, material resources and manpower of the tribe in the military industry, which led to a deformity in the development of the empire.

   Now that the empire has been established, and the new Spanish governorship and Panama have been successfully recovered, the expansion of the empire can be temporarily stopped. Because Shixiong knew very well that if it continued to expand like this, the empire would definitely sustain it.

   In terms of the current manpower and economy of the empire, controlling such a large territory is already the limit of the empire. If the expansion continues, there is no corresponding economic system to support, and there is not enough human resources to support, then there is a great possibility that the empire will have some unpredictable disasters.

   So Shixiong temporarily stopped the expansion of the empire, but turned his head to focus on vigorously developing internal affairs and exploring the Pacific Ocean.

   Shixiong knows very well that the more than 20 years from the outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789 to the Battle of Waterloo in 1815 is a very good time window for the development of the empire. The short French giant will soon rise, and then make the whole of Europe tremble. Many European countries will unite to resist the short giant, and there will be no time to take care of others, including the Great China Empire.

   Therefore, taking advantage of this time to build the empire’s economic foundation, build the empire’s industrial system, and vigorously increase the empire’s population, this is the most important thing.

   At the same time, taking advantage of the fact that the United Kingdom is being pinned down by France, seize the time to grab territory in the Pacific Ocean

   The development plan for the empire in the next two decades was determined at this high-level meeting.

   Although the Dahua Empire practises a monarchy, there is still a cabinet under the stone bear. To be precise, the current government of the Great China Empire is the monarchy cabinet system.

   Major events are decided by Shixiong Yiyantang. As a soul wearer, as a person who has a clear understanding of the future, it is undoubtedly the most suitable choice for Shixiong to decide the direction of the empire. Because no one can make a more correct judgment than him.

   In terms of Shi Xiong's prestige, no one in the empire would oppose anything he decides.

Over the years ~lightnovelpub.net~ The Great Chief, the son of God, has conquered all people with his correct decisions time and time again. Even the millions of Vasicchus who now live in the empire have been affected by this. Conquered by the charming head of state.

  Since it was decided that the main goal of the next phase of the empire was to develop internal affairs, its military expansion was temporarily slowed down a lot.

   However, the necessary defense is still necessary.

   In September 1790, after two years of hard work, the San Diego Shipyard in San Diego Bay was built. At the same time, around the San Diego Shipyard, a new industrial city also began to take shape.

   Just as Norfolk and Norfolk shipyards are dedicated to serving the Atlantic Ocean, San Diego and San Diego shipyards are dedicated to serving the Pacific Ocean. After the empire expanded to the Pacific and even the continent on the other side of the Pacific, the base was temporarily located in San Diego.

   Of course, when Hawaii, Southeast Asia, and Australia are recovered in the future, more port cities and shipyards will definitely be established there.

   A huge Pacific Ocean, it is absolutely impossible to count on a little San Diego. But in terms of the current strength of the empire, now it can only rely on San Diego to complete the exploration of the Pacific Ocean.

  On the east coast, from the mouth of the St. Lawrence River in Canada in the north, to Puerto Rico in the east of the Caribbean Sea in the south, the empire is building a strong coastal defense system for all important port cities.

   In the current situation where it is temporarily unable to intervene in the European structure, increasing the defense of the east coast has become another important task of the empire.
