Chapter 2153 Black Sea live ammunition exercises

This amount of money is actually nothing to the people of the Tang Dynasty. The people of the Tang Dynasty did not even deliberately cheat them on the cost of self-repatriation. Even the leased passenger ships were cheap passenger ships with low fees.

But for the indigenous people, the repatriation costs of hundreds of thousands or tens of thousands of Tang Yuan are quite a lot, enough to make them heartbroken for a while.

After the matter was initially resolved, in order to prevent people from sneaking across the Black Sea to the Tang-controlled areas in the future, the Ottoman royal family and several pashas who controlled the land along the Black Sea unanimously organized a special offshore patrol blockade fleet, and

Relevant sea ban measures have been taken, and ordinary people are prohibited from going to sea on their own, except for fishermen and merchant ships who have obtained official registration and permission.

They even invited the Tang Empire Navy to patrol their coastal waters.

In order to ensure the security of the empire-controlled areas and eliminate the problem of illegal immigration, the Imperial Navy reluctantly agreed to their request after some consideration and agreed to dispatch warships to patrol various coastal waters to prevent the emergence of illegal immigrants.

In fact, after this incident occurred, the Tang Imperial Navy was ridiculed and even criticized by the army.

After all, except for some of these immigrants who sneaked over from Romania due to the war, the rest of them sneaked over from the Black Sea, and the Black Sea is a naval defense zone.

The Navy has formally established the Black Sea Fleet here, and its overall standards are higher than those of the Danish Fleet, and are comparable to those of the Mediterranean Fleet.

But now there are so many illegal immigrants who have successfully smuggled in under the nose of the Navy. In the end, the Army ridiculed the Navy, which made the Navy very embarrassed!

This matter even reached Jinling City. The navy boss was ridiculed by the army boss. Then the navy boss sent a telegram to the Black Sea Fleet, scolding the entire Black Sea Fleet.

.

At this time, the Ottoman Kingdom happened to invite the Imperial Navy to patrol the offshore waters for them, so the Black Sea Fleet naturally agreed.

Not only did it agree, the Black Sea Fleet also publicly announced that it would conduct live-fire exercises in some sea areas and that unrelated ships would be prohibited from entering. Otherwise, the Black Sea Fleet would not bear any responsibility if accidental damage occurs.

What’s interesting is that this live-fire exercise area includes the entire Black Sea coastal waters controlled by the Ottoman and Tang Dynasty Jin Kingdom. Of course, the Black Sea Fleet did not say that the exercise area will be directly moved to the shore, but is still far away from the shore.

There is a certain distance.

At the same time, several fixed routes have been left.

As for other coastal waters, they all fall within the scope of live-fire exercises!

Not long after this exercise was designated, the Black Sea Fleet mistakenly attacked more than ten indigenous ships while conducting live-fire exercises...

The Black Sea Fleet conducts live-fire exercises every day, which can be regarded as initially curbing the serious illegal immigration problem on the Black Sea.

However, the illegal immigration problem in Ukraine also caused the Jinling high-level officials of the Tang Dynasty to once again worry about expansion in Europe!

This concern is not a military issue, but an illegal immigration issue!

We had just accepted Ukraine and other parts of Eastern Europe, and already such a serious problem of illegal immigration broke out.

Moreover, the thousands of illegal Ottoman immigrants discovered now are just those that have been discovered. However, the Ukraine region and even the entire Eastern Europe region are so big. Who knows how many illegal immigrants are hidden inside? Even the army is already in the military-controlled areas of Eastern Europe.

Tens of thousands of troops have been deployed to patrol the control area, but it is impossible to cover such a vast area.

And according to the Army's inference, when the Tatars evacuated, although they did their best, there may still be omissions. After all, the scope of the Tatars' evacuation this time was too large. It is impossible to truly know the complete evacuation in such a wide range.

of.

Even if there is a small probability of omission, then the number of omissions may be tens of thousands.

This time, the first batch of territorial transfers from the Tang Dynasty to the Jin Kingdom and the Datang Empire covered a very wide range, ranging from the Finnish region of the Kingdom of Sweden in the north to the Black Sea in the south. To the west, the Dnieper River, Devi

The Nahe River and the two rivers are the boundaries.

Or to put it more simply and directly, all the areas east of the Dnieper River and Dvina River will be handed over to the Tang Empire!

And this is an extremely huge area, including the original Russian Principality, part of the land of the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania, and part of the area controlled by the former Ottoman Kingdom.

In order to hand over this area, the Tatars have only been relocating for several years. It is not easy to control such a huge area and curb the influx of illegal immigrants!

However, although the empire's top officials were somewhat worried about illegal immigration in the newly occupied areas, they would not stop the pace of westward expansion.

As for the issue of illegal immigration, we just need to continue to strengthen the handling of it.

For example, two inland river fleets, the Dnieper Fleet and the Dvina River Fleet, were specially set up to carry out intensive patrols.

Blockade the Black Sea coast to prevent seaborne immigration.

At the same time, a complete blockade was imposed on the Baltic Sea coast, and the Kingdom of Sweden and other Baltic Sea coastal countries were required to implement the blockade together.

To this end, the Tang Empire even carried out the largest military mobilization in the past five years. The army mobilized at least 100,000 troops to station in the newly occupied areas of Eastern Europe, patrolling and blocking various landmasses day and night.

The navy completely blockaded the Black Sea and the eastern Baltic Sea.

At the same time, in order to further strengthen control over the newly occupied areas, the empire's European railway lines naturally needed to continue to extend westward.

Although there is now a cheaper and more convenient Suez Canal, troops and supplies can be transported by ship through Suez, enter the Mediterranean, then enter the Black Sea through the Black Sea Strait, and then enter the Dnieper River.

But the railway is still indispensable!

This time the expansion of European railway lines will continue to be built to Kiev, the most important city in Ukraine.

No matter how convenient sea and river transportation are, the vast inland still needs such a railway artery!

With the transfer of large areas, the newly occupied areas became military-controlled areas, and after the garrison troops fully moved westward, the empire also began to localize some of the original military-controlled areas.

Prior to this, although the Tang Empire had built railways to the banks of the Don River and had also conducted a certain degree of immigration to the areas west of the Don River, the overall scale was very small.

The empire's previous immigration and infrastructure construction in the western region was still concentrated in the area east of the Volga River.

The area east of the Volga River is still hundreds of kilometers away from the Tatar-controlled areas and the Ottoman-controlled areas.
