Chapter 1640
Ying Yi knows a little about Rakshasa.
I still came here to ask questions when I saw Tang Ruowang and other Taixi biography priority.
Although Ying Yi crossed over from another time and space, he has no memory of the Rakshasa Country corresponding to the current era.
From the mouths of John Tang and the others, Ying Yi's biggest impression of Rakshasa Country is its weak emperor, Mikhail I.
The Romanoff dynasty's Mikhail I was born weak. First, he was replaced by his father, the Great Shepherd of the Orthodox Church. After the Great Shepherd died, he handed over the authority to the great nobles who returned in a swirl of dust, which made him a laughing stock in the countries of Northern Europe.
But Tang Ruowang and the others do not deny the fact that after Mikhail I came to power, the situation of Tsarist Russia's Rakshasa Country is getting better day by day.
What Ying Yi cares about most is not these - what he cares about is the reason why the situation of Rakshasa Country is getting better after Mikhail came to power - the vast eastern land - Siberia in Rakshasa population, Ying Yi The north of the 'Northern Sea' in the eyes.
The merchants and aristocrats of Rakshasa Country created wealth by grabbing the endless wood and fur in the northern land of the vast Northern Sea and exporting them to European countries.
What Ying Yi saw was the expansion of Rakshasa Country to the east!
Russia is the largest country on the planet in the time and space he crossed over. But Ying Yi is not sure when the Russian Rakshasa began to expand.
Now he knows, from this time. It is probably the past twenty or thirty years from Apocalypse to Chongzhen years.
The reports of the soldiers in Liaodong also made Ying Yi know that those Rakshasa people, already not far, traveled across the vast and cold northern Sea, and their footprints came to Liaodong.
In Ying Yi's view, the pace of expansion of Rakshasa Country is not fundamentally different from the great voyages of the southern countries of Europe - all for the purpose of grabbing wealth!
It's just that one is from the sea and the other is from the land.
Rakshasa Country has never thought about going the way of the southern European countries, but they have no choice. Tang Ruowang told Ying Yi that Rakshasa Country did not have an outlet to the sea—there used to be, but it was taken away. Moreover, Rakshasa Country is surrounded by enemies, whether it is Sweden in the north, Poland in the east, or even the Ukrainian Cossacks and the Kree Mu Tatar Khanate in the south, all of which are obstacles to the expansion of Rakshasa Country.
They can only go east.
It has to be said that fate, it is because of Xiangdong, in the time and space before Yingyi crossing over, they have such a huge territory.
Rakshasa Country lost its Baltic outlet and turned its eyes to the east. Their merchants and nobles put their power into the north of the vast Northern Sea, expand step by step, spread their influence all over the north, and finally become a great country.
Rakshasa Country is tricky for Ying Yi right now. Not because of how powerful Rakshasa Country is. but too far away. Even if troops are sent from Xinjiang Beizhou, it cannot directly affect Rakshasa. It must first solve the Kree Khanate and Ukrainian Cossacks, and also be affected by the Mughals.
Not available today - expeditions mean heavy logistical pressures. For the time being, the northern and southern states of Xinjiang cannot afford it, and it would be too difficult to allocate resources from the Divine Province. If the road system has not yet been built, it is not worth the effort.
However, the Rakshasa people in Liaodong must clean up. How can others be sneaky on the side of the couch? !
"I can't do anything for the time being." Ying Yi said: "The Rakshasa people in Liaodong are not the official behavior of the Rakshasa Country, they can only be regarded as the folk 'gold diggers'. It is easy to kill, but it is not a big deal. Useful. Even if you kill all of them, it will not affect Rakshasa Country. And you can't directly use more troops in Rakshasa Country. You can only hold it down. After the transportation system of the empire is fully established and the transportation Origin Item enters mass production, it will start. Deal with it."
Added: "It's just a pity that the vast land in the north can only be seen but not used for a long time. My Divine Province has a prosperous population, but it is far from this world. Insufficient. The north is too cold, and the resettlement policy is even more inappropriate. We can only wait until the population of the empire is at its peak, and then slowly expand to the north."
To do things, conditions must be met. If there are no conditions, there is nothing Ying Yi can do.
To deal with Rakshasa Country, even after the invasion of Nanyang. The key is the influence of the northern environment. Vast and cold.
However, as far as Ying Yi is concerned, the vast area to the north of the Northern Sea has been taken as the territory of various Xia since ancient times—in the future, troops will definitely not start from Liaodong, but from the Western Regions, That is the beginning of Xinjiang. Just attack the lair of the Rakshasa and destroy his roots.
It is only reasonable to wait until the population of the empire is gradually prosperous, and then slowly guide the development of the north.
How can you come and go with the people of Rakshasa in the north of the vast Northern Sea? Directly attack its key points and occupy its homeland. The north of the Northern Sea is the back garden of the empire, and it can be developed when you want.
"The Japanese and Japanese are the most important." Ying Yi revealed this section and said, "What has happened recently with the Japanese and Japanese?"
Yan Ermei said: "The Ministry of National Security I have been staring at them all the time. Tokugawa Mitsuyou visited the important ministers of the dynasty one after another a few days ago, and sent someone back to China to ask for instructions, and there is no movement at the moment."
As a supervisor of the Humane Daoist Supervision, Yan Ermei's official position is not High, but Grade 3, but the real power is great. He is a close official of Ying Yi, and usually the memorial in the Imperial court must pass through him first. Even some less discreet news from the Ministry of State Security had to pass through him first.
Ying Yi slightlyply nominated: "It is very important to Ma Yuri and Japanese, no matter how much Tokugawa Iamitsu turns around, it will not be easily ceded."
"It is impossible to cede, Maybe you can retreat and ask for the next best thing." Yan Ermei said, "How about obtaining the right to garrison first?"
Ying Yi laughed: "If you let me garrison, what is the difference between ceding it and ceding it?"
"Your Majesty, the difference lies in the famous tools." Yan Ermei said: "Only the garrison is not ceded, and Tsushima Island is nominally still a Japanese and Japanese country. Tokugawa Iamitsu will not be criticized too much. If it is directly ceded, I am afraid those who oppose him will be He will jump up all of a sudden, he must not dare."
Ying Yi laughed heartily: "Then let's talk about it first. If you don't cede, you will be stationed. As for how many troops are there... How about a War Zone? "
Yan Ermei said with a smile: "Your Majesty is embarrassing them. With the strength of a War Zone, the Tokugawa family can sleep?"
"That's right I want to keep him awake. Many ministers in the Imperial court think that my undeclared war is an unjust war, and there is no reason, so find a reason. I want to garrison 48,000 troops, if he refuses? Then beat him. "
Yan Ermei grinned.
Ying Yi has always been direct and rude in doing things. But he has the guts. Yan Ermei was used to Ying Yi's way of dealing with problems, but occasionally thought it was too rough?
But when I think about it, I feel refreshed, as if this should be done, there is no need to go around.
It's just that there are indeed some ministers in the Imperial court who think it's too bad, it's an unjust war. I think that even if we want to fight, we must first find a reasonable reason, that is to say, the other party must be at fault before they can fight.
