Glorious Era
Chapter 992:Glorious Era
My name is Javier, from Spain.
When I heard from a friend from a faraway sea that there was a rich and powerful country in the far east, far more powerful than the countries of Europa combined, I had some unbelief.
But as a disciple who believes in God and wants to spread the word of the Lord to every corner where the sun can shine, I still decided to go to the legendary Eastern powers to tell everyone there about the greatness of the Lord.
The journey to the East was arduous and long, and the journey to the sea for nearly a year nearly killed me several times on board.Fortunately, with the Lord's Blessing, I can support the destination, a beautiful city called Suzhou.
When I walked on land with the crew, I couldn’t believe my eyes, because everything in the city was cleaner and more beautiful than Madrid.The roads here are so flat and clean that there is no dirty water flowing around in the cities of Spain, and even many places can see the dirty environment.And when I learned later that there were hundreds of thousands of civilians living in the city, I felt that it was all so incredible, and I didn't know how they did it.
Later, I finally got some answers from the officials of Mingguo, which had already dug up a dark channel trench in the underground of Suzhou City, and then with the help of the city's well-to-do rivers, you could wash away all those dirty things.
Ah, what a great invention, without those sickening stinks, the whole city looks so lovely!
Like the beauty and refreshing of the whole city, the people here are quite warm and courteous.They were all dressed in the most beautiful clothes, in the countries of Europa, which only nobles were entitled to wear, no, not even those nobles, I am afraid they would not get such beautiful clothes embroidered with patterns such as flowers and birds.And the cups they drink tea and drink are also crystal clear, looking at the most precious antiques.
And all this is just what every ordinary common person in this rich city has, and the rich people and officials here enjoy a higher treatment.
It was not until I had been in Suzhou for more than half a month and walking around that I had to believe what my friend had told me that it turned out that this ancient country, which existed in the East, was indeed so rich.
But I was thinking again that a rich country might not be strong, and that if they did not have the strength of the navy and army as we in Spain, their wealth would only bring disaster to themselves.
But I was wrong, because the day I left Suzhou, I saw with my own eyes a strong army of strong armor, with spears and steel knives coming in from outside the city.This army only looked at it up close and it shocked me greatly.Although they are not as big as our Spanish soldiers, I believe that when the two sides are at war, our brave soldiers may not be able to defeat them.
Moreover, there was a gun in the midst of their ranks, with a gleam of light.It was the latest type of light artillery that Europa had only recently begun to prevail, and it was impossible to imagine that it would have been popularized in this faraway East.And the number of guns in Suzhou is more than in Madrid, to know that this is not their capital.
When I left Suzhou, I fell in love with the city.The only good thing is that the people here are too rich, and they have their own beliefs, and they are completely unbelieving in the glory of the Lord that I have presented to me.
But the kingdom is vast, and perhaps other cities will be poorer than here, and I can always make people here begin to believe in an all-knowing, all-powerful God.

The land of Mingguo is really vast, and I have walked all the way north for half a year, and finally came to its capital, Beijing.This is the greatest city, yes, the greatest, the European states, there is no city in the European countries that can compare with it.
The city is bigger than Suzhou, and the population here is even more than one million.
Like the cities I have been through all the way, although there are a few poor people here, they can live well, and they can not only become slaves to the rich like the poor in Europa.
Those who listen to this say that this is the glory of the world, and it is the greatness of the world in the eyes of all people.
And I have heard people here mention that more than 20 years ago, this country suffered a terrible disaster, a powerful army from the north once hit the city under Beijing, almost to kill into the city.
I was shocked, can there still be an army in this world that can fight such a powerful country?And did you get a one-time victory?
It wasn’t until later that I learned that more than 20 years ago, it was completely different.It is precisely because of that disaster that the rulers of the Ming Kingdom will strive to be strong and eventually re-emerging.
And the founder of all this is naturally the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who died last year, and another great lord who was relished by many.
I heard that I was able to successfully log in from Suzhou or because he strongly advocated the opening of the sea ban 20 years ago, otherwise the ships at sea will not reach the land of Mingguo at all.It is hard to believe that those hospitable people have had such a few years left.
What surprised me even more was that the Marquis was the man who brought the gun to the Ming Kingdom and popularized it.It is because of his strong support that the major cities of Mingguo are now equipped with this latest type of artillery, and many more advanced artillery and muskets are also in continuous development, and it may be that when Mingguo's muskets and guns will completely surpass us.
After I arrived in Beijing, I wanted to meet with this great Marquis, but unfortunately he had left Beijing to visit outside.I didn’t see him until I finally got out of here.
But even so, I will not forget him, the Marquis of the Ming Dynasty called Lu Wei.For I know that the true creator of this great and prosperous life is actually him!

Hundreds of years later, when some historians in China at that time debated why they had not experienced the transformation of the civil forts, but instead used this opportunity to embark on a new path, a travelogue book from the West gave you the most neutral and objective answer.
Originally, they also questioned all kinds of historical materials until they read some of the contents of this book, only to be convinced that the real change in the Great Ming National Movement is actually a person who has little ink in the history book.
But with the subsequent excavation and study, the people finally reached an agreement, really let Daming through this period of hardships, and completely rise, is the emperor of the time sealed as a sincere Lu Wei!
It was he who created the world, and then turned around and went away.
This has caused countless historians and people who know his inner feelings to have a strong interest in him and have developed a reverence.
The name of Lu Wei, after hundreds of years, is once again recited by countless people of insight in the country...
