What Liu Zheng has been thinking about since then is the problem of excess soldiers. As mentioned before, the vassal kings took advantage of the war and the extra recruitment quotas have now become overwhelming.
Isn't this a threat to Liu Zheng?
These are also a threat to Longyan's stability.
So how to reasonably remove these threats?
Europe.
Only Europe.
Liu Zheng smiled slightly.
The day after he received Frederick's letter.
He was in parliament and proposed a plan to enter Europe.
This plan is mainly divided into military march and commercial march. The commercial march is mainly to sell more Longyan products to Europe through the control of the Suez Canal. The military march is to control the war through the alliance with Prussia.
Poland and Lithuania were partitioned.
In the history of Liu Zheng's previous life, the first partition of Poland was led by Russia.
The main reason was that Tsarist Russia was too powerful and its desire for expansion broke the balance of power in Eastern Europe. Those involved included Russia, Prussia, the powerful Austria, and the declining Ottoman.
But this world is different.
Tsarist Russia did not continue to become stronger, but suffered a big setback on Long Yan's side. This caused the distribution of power in Eastern Europe to begin to tilt. Different from the history that Liu Zheng knew before, Tsarist Russia did not continue to become stronger, and Osman was also in fifth place.
In the Russo-Turkish War, victory was achieved, and recently the Black Sea Port was captured.
Suddenly, the situation in Eastern Europe was chaotic and the balance of power changed.
This was great news for the Habsburg dynasty.
The Habsburg dynasty, this famous dynasty, still needs to be introduced. It is the most powerful royal family in European history and has the widest ruling area. It once ruled the Holy Roman Empire, the Spanish Empire, the Grand Duchy of Austria, and the Austrian Empire.
, wait wait...
The Habsburg dynasty, also known as the Austrian family, was unprecedentedly powerful at the beginning of the 18th century.
Before the rise of Russia, the Habsburg family must have controlled the voice of the entire Eastern Europe. But as Russia became more powerful and barbaric, their power began to be threatened.
so.
Now when Tsarist Russia was defeated, the Habsburg family was the happiest, and also expanded accordingly. After Tsarist Russia was defeated, the situation in Eastern Europe would return to their hands again.
However.
Frederick the Great of the Hohenzollern dynasty was obviously reluctant.
