Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 1018 Hongwu 25 Years
At this time, it has been 25 years since Hongwu.

Lu Qi's army swept up Ross, and also took care of Poland and Hungary, which had stretched out their claws to the north. Both of them had some thoughts about Ross.But I never thought that the new owner of that piece of land is such a food protector!

Not only were their claws that came in to grab food severed, but Lu Qijun even stabbed them fiercely in the direction they came from.

Of course, that cannot be compared with the actions of the Mongols during the Second Western Expedition.

However, with the Lu Qi army as the core, the Russians served as a vassal army, but they also taught the Poles and Hungarians a lesson.

A large amount of goods and materials flowed into Ross, and even a large group of captives. Such a rain in the long drought gave the Ross people who had fallen into the bottom of the valley a glimmer of vitality.

It also gave hope to those Ross nobles who chose to surrender under the sword!
In many cases, what people at the bottom of the valley need most is not food and water for relief, but a glimmer of hope.

Now the Russians see a new opportunity for themselves, even if it is to follow the Chinese side and work as a minion.

Mstislava's mother and daughter were solemnly sent back to Jinling, but Rose, which is tens of thousands of miles away, began to fight against Luyu, those princes and princes, and even the generals of the Lu Qi Army, were not Who is the little Rose lady who has few outstanding births?
Just like the Tianfang and Tianzhu nobles who knelt at Lu Qi's feet, sending daughters and beauties is the most direct way to connect bilateral relations.

But everyone understands that real interests come first.Sending a woman is the most practical expression, and it represents an attitude.And the two sides deepened the relationship, the most direct reaction is that the sender has a backer, doesn't it?
Mstislava's mother and daughter are the peak performance of this behavior.

It's just that the operator has changed from the Ross to the Emperor Lu.

Lu Qian used the majesty of the imperial power to wear the most dazzling halo around her. This is to let the people have more and more direct understanding of Ross, and the second is to appease the Ross people and satisfy them. A trace of dignity, to make up for their shattered face.

Look at the mother and daughter, after going through such a trip to the mainland, did they immediately rise to the top?This will go a long way to appease the badly wounded pride of the Rus people.

Therefore, the status of Mstislava's mother and daughter is dispensable.In Lu Qian's eyes, they are just chess pieces, which are displayed for everyone to see, and when everyone has seen them, their meaning has been achieved.In return, Lu Qian will give that little girl a decent result. She will first become the prince's concubine, and then become the emperor's concubine.

In other words, whoever can marry her will be the heir in Lu Qian's mind.

Therefore, the prosperity and wealth waiting for Premyslava's mother and daughter will only be greater than they imagined.

As for Ross, because it is Lu Qian's focus, all the latter's information is under his control.Hungary and Poland also appeared in front of him. The two countries that had been severely beaten by Lu Qi's army were like two white chickens, which seemed to be ready to eat!

But the cabinet told Lu Qian that his Great Qi Empire had really reached its limit.

The Rus War has started for more than two years, except for the army brought by Shi Wengong, Lu Qi has not delivered any material supplies to it.

Even if they got a lot of benefits from Ross, the transporter still had more than enough energy.

Because the "running cycle" is too long.

After the weapons and armor were produced in Anxi, they were sent to the armory, and then the Transshipment Department relied on simple land transportation to send them to Tianfang and Ross, which was too difficult.

Leaving aside the question of whether the road is easy to walk, it is the road that spans thousands of miles and the fragile load capacity of the carriage, which is a huge tragedy.

A piece of armor weighs tens of catties, a big knife and long gun weighs more than ten catties, how much can a two-wheeled carriage hold?
The reason for not using a four-wheeled carriage is that it relies more on flat terrain and roads than a two-wheeled carriage, and is far inferior to two-wheeled carriages in terms of durability.Although its load is far stronger than that of a two-wheeled carriage, the transshipment company can only use two wheels for long-distance land transportation.

Thinking about the huge number of two-wheeled carriages and the entire logistics transportation, even with Lu Qi's national strength, it is exhausted to support it until now.

And don't look at Tianzhu and Tianfang's enemies, even in Asia Minor, including the support of the Crusaders and the Byzantine Empire, the Seljuks failed to withstand the attack of the Lu Qi army.But they delayed this war until now, a "world war" that lasted for three years, really drained all of Lu Qi's family fortune.

It's not that there is no money left financially.As far as the current domestic atmosphere is concerned, if Lu Qian is short of money, he can just issue war bonds in the bank directly. If there are too many, I dare not say that there is no problem at all.Even the royal family has a lot of wealth in their hands. How could Lu Qian not be willing to invest in it?

But in today's environment, no amount of wealth can double domestic productivity and explode with infinite power.It's not the industrial age yet!

The continuous war has put the pressure on the logistics of the Lu Qi court even greater. Not to mention, the reserves of swords, guns, armour, and various firearms in various arsenals have also bottomed out, and the use of firearms in the Tianzhu Tianfang area is also clean and neat. The war of conquest gradually became a bit sour.

Fortunately, it was too late for Tianzhu and Tianfang to 'wake up'.Sancar focused on stealing Lu Qi's guns and artillery, but he didn't know how restrictive the latter was.It's not about making more simple and rude thunder and rockets.

So much so that they made wedding clothes for Europeans in vain.

Anyone who thinks about it can understand that Sancar obtained some information from Lu Qi at any cost. With the complete defeat of the Seljuks, all of them will definitely be included in Byzantium.

But now, with the Byzantines going into battle shirtless, and even the complete intervention of the Monolithic World, the battle situation in the Tianfang World is far more complicated than Lu Qian imagined before.

Before the start of the war, he never thought that the Byzantines would carry on the war to this extent. With the defeat of the Seljuks, the Lu Qi army began to face the Byzantine Empire.The latter had already fought with Lu Qi because of the Seljuk war, and the Knights of the Crusaders also broke out with all their strength in the face of death.While one by one went all out to 'defend' their territory, they also began to summon Dafa one after another.

Such as the Principality of Antioch and the Principalities of Italy and Aquitaine.

Bohemond I was a cousin of Roger II of the Kingdom of Sicily. Although there was no deep friendship between them, after Bohemond left for the Middle East, their conflicts ceased to exist. The family relationship between the two There are still some.

Raymond, the current Grand Duke of Antioch, is the son-in-law of Bohemond II, and Bohemond II has no males.And Raymond is the richest woman in France, and the uncle of Eleanor, the Duchess of Aquitaine and the Countess of Poitiers, who are currently Queen of France.

And the Kingdom of Jerusalem also summoned France, the difference is that the object inside is different, not the royal family of France, but the Earl of Anjou, one of its largest feudal states.The latter can also dominate the nearby earls: Nantes, Vendome, Mann, etc. The real strength is by no means a title of earl.

When Baldwin II [King of Jerusalem] was alive, because he had no son, he decided to pass the throne to his son-in-law Fulk from France and his daughter Melisende.Although Fulk was forty years old at that time and his sons were already married, in order to obtain the throne for his descendants, he was still happy to find himself another crown of the king of Jerusalem.After the death of Baldwin II, the couple was officially crowned king.Jerusalem enters into the joint reign of King Fulk (Jerusalem) and Queen Melisende.

Now that his own interests are being mortally threatened, Fulk will naturally write to his son in his hometown, asking for support.Not only that, he also wrote to England.Because his daughter-in-law is the second daughter of King Henry I of England.Henry I's eldest daughter Euphemia and eldest son William died in an accident, and his second son Richard died young without a title.Only the second daughter Matilda, she first married Holy Roman Emperor Henry V, Henry V was established by his father as the heir to the throne of England after his death, but failed due to the opposition of the English nobles, and then married the Count of Anjou in France. De Froy V [son of Fulk].

After Henry I's death, Matilda made an unsuccessful bid for the English throne, but also reached an agreement with his cousin, Stephen.In the time of Stephen, the throne was succeeded by Matilda's son.

In this case, Fulk felt that it was necessary for Stephen to express himself.

Amidst the cries of the Europeans defending the Holy Land and the occasional resistance of the Tianfang people, the war in West Asia cannot be stopped for a short time.

Under such circumstances, Lu Qian really didn't have the heart to start the second battlefield - the conquest of Central and Western Europe.

Even though the war in Tianzhu has largely ended, one of the Zhuluo Kingdom and the Xichaluqi Dynasty has become history, split into small sesame kingdoms where indigenous princes are the masters, and the other surrendered to Lu Qi.And the transshipment envoy can also transport military supplies to the sky by sea.

But now, isn't it thousands of years later, even if it can be transported by sea, from Middle Earth to Tianzhu, and then from Tianzhu to Tianfang, is it really easy?
This is the main reason why Lu Qian comforted the Russians!

Lu Qi has really reached the extreme.
