Dominate Marvel

Ying Yi knows a little about the country of Rakshasa.

I came here for a question and answer when I met Tang Ruowang and other missionaries from Europe and the West.

Although Ying Yi traveled from another time and space, he has no memory of the Russian Rakshasa Kingdom corresponding to the current era.

From the words of Tang Ruowang and others, Ying Yi's biggest impression of the Rakshasa Kingdom was its weak emperor, Mikhail I.

This Mikhail I of the Romanov dynasty was born to be a weak person.First, he was replaced by his father, the Patriarch of the Orthodox Church. After the death of the Patriarch, he handed over the power to the comeback of the great nobles, which made him the laughing stock of the Nordic countries.

However, Tang Ruowang and others did not deny the fact that after Mikhail I came to power, the situation in the Russian Rakshasa Kingdom gradually improved.

What Ying Yi cares about most is not these - what he cares about is the reason why the situation in the Rakshasa Kingdom has gradually improved since Mikhail came to power - the vast eastern land - Siberia in the Rakshasa population, and the 'North Sea' in Ying Yi's eyes. to the north.

The merchants and nobles of the Rakshasa Kingdom created wealth by seizing the endless wood and furs on the land north of the vast North Sea and exporting them to the European countries.

What Ying Yi saw was the expansion of the Rakshasa Kingdom to the east!

In the time and space he traveled to, Russia was the largest country on the planet.But Ying Yi was not sure when Tsarist Rakshasa began to expand.

Now he knows, from this moment on.Probably in the two to thirty years between the Tianqi and Chongzhen years of the previous dynasty.

The reports from Liaodong soldiers made Ying Yi understand that those Rakshasa people had traveled thousands of miles across the vast and cold north of the North Sea and arrived in Liaodong.

In Ying Yi's view, there is no essential difference between the expansion of the Rakshasa Kingdom and the great voyages of the southern European countries - they are all for the purpose of grabbing wealth!

It's just that one is from the sea and the other is from the land.

The Rakshasa Kingdom has never thought of taking the path of the Southern European countries, but they have no choice.Tang Ruowang told Ying Yi that the Rakshasa Kingdom did not have an outlet to the sea - it once had one, but it was taken away.Moreover, the Rakshasa Kingdom is surrounded by enemies, whether it is Sweden in the north, Poland in the east, or even the Ukrainian Cossacks and the Crimean Tatar Khanate in the south, all are obstacles to the expansion of the Rakshasa Kingdom.

They can only go east.

This has to be said to be fate. It was precisely because of Xiangdong, in the time and space before Ying Yi traveled through, that they had such a huge territory.

The Rakshasa Kingdom lost its outlet to the Baltic Sea, so it turned its attention to the east.Their merchants and nobles put their power to the north of the vast North Sea, expanded step by step, spread their influence across the north, and eventually became a great nation.

For Ying Yi, the Rakshasa Kingdom is now very difficult.It's not because of how powerful the Rakshasa Kingdom is.But too far away.Even if troops are sent from Xinjiang Beizhou, they will not be able to directly affect the Rakshasa. They must first deal with the Crimean Khanate and Ukrainian Cossacks, and they must also be influenced by the Mughals.

The conditions are not met today - an expedition would mean heavy logistical pressure.For the time being, states such as northern Xinjiang and southern Xinjiang cannot afford it, and it would be too difficult to allocate resources from China. The road system has not yet been built, and it is not a thankless effort.

However, the Rakshasa people in Liaodong must be cleaned up. How can others be allowed to be sneaky on the side of the bed? !

"There is nothing we can do for the time being." Ying Yi said: "The Rakshasa people in Liaodong are not considered to be from the Rakshasa Kingdom.

Official actions can only be regarded as private 'gold diggers'.It's easy to kill, but it's not very useful.Even if they were killed, it would not have any impact on the Rakshasa Kingdom.And it is impossible to directly send troops to the Rakshasa Kingdom.I can only hold back for now.Only after the empire's transportation system is fully established and transportation components enter large-scale mass production will we start to deal with it. "

He added: "It's just a pity that the vast land in the north will only be able to be seen but not used for a long time. Our country has a prosperous population, but it is far from enough compared to this world. The north is too cold, and the immigrants It is not appropriate to proceed with the policy. We can only wait until the empire's population reaches its peak, and then slowly expand northward."

There are conditions for doing things.If there are no conditions, there is nothing Ying Yi can do.

To deal with the Rakshasa Kingdom, it even has to be ranked after launching troops in Nanyang.The key is the influence of the northern environment.Vast and cold.

However, as far as Ying Yi is concerned, the vast area north of the Beihai has been regarded as the territory of the Xia since ancient times. In the future, the army will definitely not start from Liaodong, but from the Western Region, that is, northern Xinjiang.Just attack the Rakshasa's lair directly and destroy his foundation.

It is only right to wait until the population of the empire gradually becomes more prosperous, and then slowly guide the development of the north.

How could we go back and forth with the Rakshasa people in the vast north of the North Sea?Directly attack its key points and occupy its homeland. The north of the North Sea is the back garden of the empire. It can be developed whenever you want.

"Japanese pirates are the most important thing at the moment." Ying Yi uncovered this section and said, "What's going on with the Japanese Japanese envoys recently?"

Yan Ermei said: "The Ministry of National Security has been keeping an eye on them. Tokugawa Mitsutomo visited the important ministers one by one a few days ago, and sent people back to ask for instructions. There is no movement at the moment."

As a supervisor of the Humane Supervision Bureau, although Yan Ermei's official position is not high, only the third rank, she has great real power.He is a close minister of Ying Yi, and usually the memorials in the court must go through him first.Even some less cautious information from the Ministry of National Security has to go through him first.

Ying Yi nodded slightly: "It is extremely important to Ma Yuriwa. No matter how many times Tokugawa Iemitsu moves around, he will not give it up easily."

"We can't cede it, so we might have to settle for the next best thing." Yan Ermei said, "How about obtaining the right to garrison troops first?"

Ying Yi laughed: "If you let me garrison troops, what's the difference between it and ceding it?"

"Your Majesty, the difference lies in the famous weapons." Yan Ermei said: "Only the troops are stationed and not ceded. Tsushima Island is still nominally a Japanese country. Tokugawa Iemitsu will not receive too much blame. If it is ceded directly, I am afraid that those who oppose him will be The child will jump up, but he will definitely not dare."

Ying Yi laughed loudly: "Then let's talk based on this first. If we don't cede, we will garrison troops. As for how many troops will be garrisoned...how about a war zone?"

Yan Ermei smiled and said: "Your Majesty is making things difficult for them. Can Tokugawa Iemitsu sleep with the troops stationed in a war zone?"

"It's just to keep him awake. Many ministers in the court think that my undeclared war is an unjust war. There is no reason, so find a reason. I want to garrison [-] troops, and he won't do it? Then beat him up he."

Yan Ermei grinned.

Ying Yi has always been direct and rough in his dealings.But he has the confidence.Yan Ermei has become accustomed to Ying Yi's way of dealing with problems, but occasionally feels that it is too rough?

But when I think about it, I feel refreshed. It seems like this is the way to go, there is no need to go around and around.

It's just that some ministers in the court felt that it was not good and it was an unjust war.I think that even if we want to fight, we must first find a reasonable reason. In other words, the other party must be at fault before we can fight.
