Chapter 245: Europes nightmare from a hundred years ago comes again
Latest website:
Especially the consolidation of secular political power in this religion made Wang Baobao feel that it was like the Confucian culture in the Central Plains.
If religious beliefs can be used well, Wang Baobao can truly and perfectly replace the rule of the Golden Horde there.
After thinking about it for a while, Wang Baobao decided to discuss the decision of the western expedition with his brother Tuoyin Timur and other subordinates.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this proposal, Tamerlane and others all agreed with it.
After all, the Mongolians do not have any tradition of loving their families. Their ancestors even made expeditions to the core areas of Europe, so they were very familiar with it.
Now these Slavs have even taken the initiative to invite the Yuan Dynasty to conquer the evil Golden Horde, so why would they not do it?
Those who had some slight objections were not the Mongols, but the Han officials and generals headed by Yanshenggong Kong Kejian, and the Oara people headed by Hao Hai.
They were all worried about migrating too far away.
Duke Yan Shenggong Kong Kejian said, "This place is at least five thousand miles away from where the Slavic barbarians live. Without the luggage, I am afraid that less than half of the 100,000 people will survive after we get there."
Kong Kejian was now a little desperate. He knew that if he followed the Mongols' footsteps and marched westward, the Han forces under his command would gradually be exhausted.
Therefore, Kong Kejian suggested to Wang Baobao that he might as well lead the army and advance southward along the plains in the middle of the river.
Because he already knew that the river was not too far away from the wealthy Persia and other places. As long as he could get there, the Yuan Dynasty could continue to use Han officials like them to manage the government and local affairs.
After all, they are not nomadic grasslands, but vast plains suitable for settlement.
but.
This suggestion is unacceptable to the Wala people headed by Hao Hai.
The Wara people are only used to herding and raising horses. Once they are allowed to enter the plains to farm, it will be extremely uncomfortable.
None of the Walas will like it.
What the Oara people, led by Hao Hai, want is to rely on their own military strength and the flexibility of the nomads to continue to fight guerrilla tug-of-war with the Ming army in the Hezhong Plain and the grasslands north of the Tianshan Mountains.
However, this suggestion was rejected by Wang Baobao without hesitation.
Because in Wang Baobao's view, the Ming army was not afraid of the Mongols' traditional tactics at all.
The Ming army had sharp muskets and artillery, as well as solid fortress tactics. Once they established a stronghold on the grassland, countless Ming army strongholds were established on the grassland.
The Mongols, whether they were the Mongols in the eastern grasslands or the Oara people in the west, had no way to deal with the Ming army's tactics of guns, artillery and fortresses.
In the end, they could only watch as the Ming army encroached on the grassland through this tactic.
By that time, the power of the Wala people must have been exhausted, and they will no longer have the power to make waves.
Instead of slowly cutting your flesh with a knife and being eaten alive by the Ming army, it is better to give it a try and go to the far west to fight for a rich and prosperous future!
In the end, Wang Baobao overcame all objections and persuaded Yanshenggong Kong Kejian and other Han officials, as well as Hao Hai and other Oara nobles.
"The Yuan Dynasty is not limited to one land. If the people there are trapped in disasters and tyranny, we, the Yuan Dynasty, can obey the destiny and rescue them!"
Wang Baobao explained and instantly described the Yuan Dynasty's escape as a thousand-mile journey.
Later, he sent someone to bring Andrei, the Slavic descendant, to his military camp tent.
Regarding the situation in the West, Wang Baobao asked Andrei to explain it again to Tuoin Timur, Kong Kejian, Hao Hai and other civil and military generals.
Now everyone realizes the importance of Orthodox Christianity, the religion of the Slavs, to their rule there.
Andrei was keenly aware of this. After he said everything he said, he once again carefully persuaded Wang Baobao to convert to Orthodox Christianity. And it was not Wang Baobao who converted personally, but all the generals, officials and soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty.
Convert to Orthodoxy.
"Your Highness, as long as you can convert to Orthodoxy, you will be able to rule not only the Slavs, but also the Bulgarians, Moldavians, and the Romans and Greeks further south. They will all be willing to become your subjects.
, because all of these places are threatened by heretics and heretics. If you can become the protector of all orthodox believers, then this vast land will be willing to respect you as the orthodox ruler."
The rough and savage-looking Slavic Andrei in front of him actually had a set of eloquent speaking skills, and he quickly persuaded Wang Baobao and others.
Moreover, Andrei described the future so beautifully that everyone felt that they should try their luck in the West instead of staying here to fight with the Ming army.
Subsequently, this military meeting about the future of the Yuan Dynasty turned into an explanatory speech by the Slavic Andrei about the Western Orthodox world.
After Andre told everything he knew, it was already late at night, but Wang Baobao, Tuoyin Timur, Kong Kejian, Hao Hai and others still listened with interest.
After this intensive tutoring session on Orthodox Christianity, they basically mastered all the key points.
For example, the sphere of influence of the Orthodox Church, who are the enemies of the Orthodox Church, the conflicts between the Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church, etc.
The Slav Andrei was the lord of Nizhny Novgorod. He might not be very clear about the situation in the Eastern Roman Empire, but he knew the local Slavs very well.
Andrei guaranteed with his own life that as long as Wang Baobao and the others converted to Orthodox Christianity, the local Slavs would immediately abandon the Golden Horde and become loyal to Wang Baobao's Yuan Dynasty.
However, Wang Baobao is not a three-year-old child. He also has his own considerations about what Andre said. He feels that it is definitely not that simple for millions of Slavs to surrender to him, not to mention what Andre said.
Those other Orthodox countries such as Rome and Bulgaria should be even more difficult to deal with.

There is a large-scale city on the banks of the Volga River. This city looks majestic and majestic, like a huge gem set in the Volga Plain. This is the capital of the Golden Horde, Bergosa.
As the capital of the Golden Horde, Bergosa is not only home to Mongols, but also a large number of Kipchak Turks, Slavs, and Caucasians.
However, Salai City, which was once prosperous and prosperous, is now in a state of chaos.
The Golden Horde Khan Naurus led an army to the east to fight against the pagans, but suffered a shameful and huge defeat.
On the way back to Bergosa, the defeated soldiers broke out two more rebellions.
Nabrus tried his best to suppress these rebellions, but his own strength suffered more serious losses. When Nabrus led the defeated remnants of the Golden Horde and returned to the city of Bergosa, there were less than 30,000 soldiers left.
People, and a large number of Slavs, Caucasians, and Kipchaks suffered heavy losses in the war.
The news of the Golden Horde's defeat spread rapidly as if it had wings.
Salai enters the city.
Naurus Khan was drinking kumiss with a sad look on his face.
He tried to use alcohol to numb his tortured mind.
His hair turned gray overnight.
It’s so sad that my hair turns gray overnight!
The huge Golden Horde has now fallen into a huge crisis.
Although the Yuan Dynasty in the East does not have many troops, its military strength is really terrifying!
The elite of the Golden Horde were so vulnerable in front of others.
After Navorus returned to Belgossa, he was always worried that Wang Baobao's Mongolian and Yuan troops would pursue him.
At this time, a series of news that made him even more distressed came. After hearing about the failure of the Golden Horde, many Slavic tribes began to wait and see.
Not only did they find various reasons to delay the payment of various taxes and offerings, but they also sent people to block the roads in an attempt to make the Golden Horde a joke. If it were in the past, the Golden Horde would definitely not be so easy
Spare these Slavic barbarians.
However, the current Khan of the Golden Horde, Navurus, is already a little busy taking care of himself and has no time to pay attention to those Slavic barbarians.
Naurus sent many sentries one after another to closely monitor the situation on the eastern border of the Golden Horde.
Once Wang Baobao's Mongolian and Yuan troops began to enter the territory of the Golden Horde, Navrus had already made plans to escape again.
There are only tens of thousands of people in the city of Bergosa now, and there is no way to stop those ferocious Mongolian soldiers.
In previous battles, Navrus was deeply impressed by the Yuan army's artillery power.
No matter how brave the soldier is, he is vulnerable to artillery.
not to mention.
In addition to artillery, the soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty even surpassed the soldiers of the Golden Horde in terms of force and courage.
I didn't know how powerful the Ming Dynasty in the east was, and it actually defeated these powerful Mongolian and Yuan armies.
Navrus deployed tight defenses in the city of Belgossa to prevent anyone from daring to launch another rebellion.
But once people's hearts collapse, all efforts will be in vain.
Naurus had just returned to his palace, and before he could warm up his butt, thick smoke and the sound of fighting erupted one after another in the city.
Within three days, at least two rebellions occurred in the city. If the defenses of the city of Belgossa were not relatively strong and the guards under Navulus had not strictly guarded their posts, these rebel thieves would have destroyed the palace. Broken.
But even so, the city of Bergosa suffered serious losses, and large numbers of merchants and people began to flee from the city.
Various rumors began to spread in the Golden Horde.
In the words of many Golden Horde soldiers who returned from defeat, the Mongols in the East had terrifying faces, strong bodies, and powerful artillery in their hands.
Compared with the artillery of the Golden Horde, the artillery in the hands of the Mongolian soldiers was like the God of Thunder in the sky, and could easily crack open a mountain peak.
Rumors are like birds, flying in all directions.
When these latest rumors about the Eastern Mongols spread to the Slavic territories, the Slavic countries headed by the Principality of Moscow and the Principality of Nizhny Novgorod became even more ready to move. They seemed to have seen the possibility of breaking away from the control of the Golden Horde. hope.
A huge change is quietly taking place in Eastern Europe.
Moscow city.
As the monarch of the Principality of Moscow, Grand Duke Dmitry Ivanovich was exceptionally young, only ten years old.
All military and political affairs of the Principality of Moscow are controlled by Dmitri's mother Angelica and uncle Yin Fan.
In the original history, the current grand duchy of the Principality of Moscow had been deprived of it by the Golden Horde and awarded to the prince of the hostile Principality of Nizhny Novgorod.
However, the early rise of the Ming Dynasty led to a series of chain reactions, leaving the Golden Horde with no time to take into account the battles between these Slavic countries, so the young Grand Duke Dmitry Ivanovich still sat in the Principality of Moscow On the throne of the Grand Duke.
"Dear brother, the news from the east has been confirmed, the terrible Mongols are back!"
In the palace of the Principality of Moscow, Angelica was talking anxiously to her brother Yin Fan.
Angelica, the mother of the current Grand Duke of Moscow, is not very old.
She was only sixteen years old when she gave birth to Grand Duke Dmitry, so now she is only a little over twenty-seven years old.
It is the time when a woman is most charming and charming.
Especially her talking eyes and long golden hair, she looks very much like the heroine actress in later Russian movies.
Regarding his sister's panic, Yin Fan, as the prime minister of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, did not feel any panic.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! In his eyes, it is impossible for the Mongols from the far east to reach Moscow, Russia, because although the Golden Horde failed, it still owned vast land
With a huge population, the Golden Horde was still able to hold on tenaciously.
"Dear sister, don't be too anxious. Although we now have some capital to fight against the Golden Horde, it is absolutely unrealistic to expect the Mongols from the east to replace the Golden Horde. So here in Moscow, too
There won't be any dangerous war, what we have to do now is to unite the principalities to fight against the Golden Horde and get them to lower their demands on our taxes and supplies, that's all!" Yifan said confidently.
From the dialogue between the two brothers and sisters, we can basically see the attitude of the principality of Muscovy towards the Golden Horde and the Mongols.
They were full of fear of the Mongols.
Now the Mongols and the Slavs of the Golden Horde have been getting along for a long time, and they have a good understanding of each other. Although they are both pagans in their own eyes, they are still half our own people.
A big war will not happen easily.
This is the relationship between the Golden Horde and the Slavs that is both cooperative and confrontational.
Once the Mongols in the far east destroyed the Golden Horde, they would inevitably repeat the catastrophe of the Slavs more than a hundred years ago.
In Slavic legends, the Mongols' two western expeditions a hundred years ago were like messengers from hell opening the gates of hell.
Countless deaths fell on the heads of the Slavs!
At least hundreds of thousands of people were killed by the Mongolian butcher knives, and the remaining memories are engraved in the minds of this nation like a nightmare.
