Chapter 889: World War (Finale) (Subscription Requested!) )
…
In the spring of the fourth year of Dading.
Li Yan led the Chinese army on the southern route to Constantinople.
Less than a hundred miles from Constantinople, the Central Army of the Southern Route fought a decisive battle with the 200,000-based religious army.
This battle was the last struggle of the Eastern Roman Empire - the army that the Eastern Roman Empire could fight almost fell out of the city.
It's a pity -
The difference in strength between the two sides is too big!
Therefore, even if the Chinese army participating in the war was less than the Christian army of the Eastern Roman Empire, the 200,000 troops of the basic religious army were still defeated by the Chinese army on the southern route.
The army invaded Constantinople and the Eastern Roman Empire fell.
Li Yan then took up residence in Constantinople.
Soon, the Chinese army reached the Vatican.
Like Jerusalem, Li Yan didn't let people move here, but just asked people to protect this place.
Subsequently, the Chinese army began to sweep across the entire Eastern Roman Empire.
The Eastern Roman Empire had actually declined, and before Li Yan led the army of the Southern Road to kill it, it was actually only an empty shelf.
The point is that the last 200,000 troops of the Eastern Roman Empire were also routed by the Central Army of the Southern Road.
Therefore, such an Eastern Roman Empire can only be slaughtered by the Chinese army.
Li Yan divided the Eastern Roman Empire into thirteen states, and then divided them among his sons.
……
Time to turn back to the winter.
Located on the west bank of the middle reaches of the Dnieper, Qiva is the main water transportation point of the Dnieper River to the Black Sea, and has the title of "Mother of Cities".
In order to seize this important place, Yue Fei divided the Chinese army on the northern route into three routes: one set out from the lower reaches of the Volga River and marched to the south of the Rus'; The other went north, conquering first Mordovia and the city of Murom on the upper reaches of the Oka River; The third group, led by Yue Fei himself, conquered the cities of Pereyasluv and Chernnikov, and at the same time swept down the city of Garoya to the northeast and the Don River in the east, cutting off the beggar's aid route and turning it into an isolated place.
After clearing the cities along the way, taking advantage of the freezing of the Dnieper River, Yue Fei crossed the river with his army and besieged the heavily defended strategic town of Qiwa (now Kiev, the capital of Ukraine), destroyed the city wall with artillery, attacked the city, and fought point by point.
Although the defenders resisted stubbornly, they were finally captured by Zhongling Yue.
The victory in this battle enabled the Chinese army on the northern route to gain a forward strategic base for advancing into Central Europe.
After capturing the city of Kiva, the Chinese army on the northern route continued to advance westward, capturing Vladimir-Volynsky (later Vladimir Volynsky, Volyn Oblast, northwestern Ukraine) and other cities in the territory, and Zaras was occupied by the Chinese army.
After Li Yan's sons took over the Rus, Yue Fei led the army to continue westward.
Yue Fei then divided the Chinese army on the northern route into two routes - one to destroy Mazar's foreign aid to Poland, and the other to Lithuania and target Northern Europe.
……
After destroying the Hungarian capital, the Chinese army in the middle also marched to Poland.
At that time, Poland was divided into a number of small feudal states, with King Boleslav having jurisdiction over only the immediate territories, and the remaining feudal states having their own affairs.
At the beginning of July, the Chinese army in the center successively captured the city of Sandomir (later the city of Sandomich on the west bank of the Vistula River southeast of Warsaw, Poland), which was under the jurisdiction of the Polish communist Boleslav.
In September, the Chinese army in the center defeated the Polish army, captured the capital city of Krakov (later Krakow in southern Poland), and then attacked the Polish vassal state of Silesia (later Silesia in southwestern Poland), crossed Odeho on a raft, and attacked its capital city of Vroslav (later the Silesian province of Poland, Froslav).
King Henry I of Silesia retreated to Legnitz (later near Görlitz in Dresden, Germany) and gathered 30,000 troops of the Polish, Germanic, and Teutonic Knights to meet the battle.
When Liu Qi learned of this, he gave up attacking the city of Vroslav and instead advanced to the vicinity of Legniz to lead Henry into battle.
At the beginning of November, Henry's army went into battle, Liu Qi feinted defeat and retreated, and Henry chased after him.
Taking advantage of the fatigue of Henry's troops, the Chinese army in the middle suddenly launched a counterattack and annihilated his army, and Henry was captured and beheaded.
Taking advantage of the victory, the central army marched south, invaded Moravia (later the southern Moravian region of the Czech Republic), and then went to Mazar to join the Chinese army on the northern route.
At the same time, the Chinese army on the northern route bypassed the Carpathian Mountains and entered Mazar, and successively captured the cities of Rudan and Waratin.
At the end of December, the Central Army of the North Route and the Central Army of the Central Route converged.
At this time, the Danube was frozen.
Yue Fei and Liu Qi led a large army to cross the Danube, and then the middle army and the northern army separated again - the middle army went to attack Fafa, and the north route Chinese army went to attack Germany.
……
In the spring of the fifth year of Dading.
Yue Fei pacified the whole of Germany.
In the summer of the fifth year of Dading, Liu Qi pacified France.
In the autumn of the fifth year of Dading, Liu Qi sent Wu Ling to cross the English Channel, and the Chinese army officially landed in Britain.
The war has been fought to such an extent that it can be said that the whole territory of Europe has been defeated by the Chinese army.
It was also at this time that the Suez Canal was dug up, and the fleet could enter Europe around the sun set.
The accumulation of thousands of years in Europe was transported back to Dazhong by the Sunset Fleet and back to Yanjing, the capital of China.
The aristocrats of Europe were also transported to Dazhong in ships.
Li Yan divided Europe into dozens of large countries, and then divided them among his sons.
……
If it weren't for the fact that Li Yan sent a large number of treasures to Yanjing every year, or even every month, and transported the nobles of various countries in large quantities, and from time to time gave some orders to Li Cun, who stayed behind, the Chinese would have thought that Li Yan had died outside, and there might have been a coup d'état.
Thinking back to his journey, Li Yan was full of emotion, "I didn't expect that I would be able to do something that Temujin and his children and grandchildren could not do!" ”
But—
Li Yan felt that his journey had come to this end and could not continue.
As for the rest of his sons, what if they grow up and have no territory?
Then it's up to them to fight on their own.
Although he still looks so young, still so strong, and can still control more than ten or twenty women at night, judging from his age, he is no longer young after all.
Therefore, Li Yan decided to return to China for the elderly.
After the partition of Europe was completed, Li Yan inspected each country one by one, and in each country, Li Yan emancipated the local slaves, let them become the subjects of his sons, and let them become the popular base of these new countries, as for how to immigrate from China to stabilize the rule of his sons, Li Yan didn't care, they had their own worries about these things, Li Yan handed over the country to them, and he had already fulfilled the responsibilities and obligations of a father, as for the rest, they could only rely on themselves.
In addition, every time he went to a country, Li Yan said to his son who had just become a king: "I will give you three years, if you can't manage your own small country in three years, then I will let someone else replace you." ”
Li Yan didn't just say this - Li Yan not only ordered Li Yan to come over and continue to inspect Central Asia and European countries for him, recording the political achievements of his king's sons, Li Yan also asked Zhu Gui, Shi Xiu, and Chai Jin to deploy a large number of spy personnel in various countries to assist Li Yan in inspecting the performance of his king's sons, if any of them really can't be the king, then Li Yan will definitely replace him, after all, it is not easy for Li Yan to fight in this world, and he can't let the loser go to waste, the key is that Li Yan has enough sons, In just the past few years of the Western Expedition, Li Yan has given birth to nearly 300 sons (even the daughters are added, more than 500), and he is not afraid that he will not be able to find a replacement for them.
By the time Li Yan finished his inspection, Europe was still not completely calm.
But Li Yan couldn't wait.
Li Yan handed over the pacification of Europe to Yue Fei and Liu Qi, and then asked Zhang Xian to lead an elite army of 100,000 to escort him back to Dazhong and Yanjing, the capital of China.
At this time, more than three years and nearly four years had passed since Li Yan's expedition to the west, and Li Yan was already fifty-four years old.
