As early as the day when he completely tore his face with the gentry of the Great Zhou, Li Yifu's Qinling forces began to show a series of strange tricks.

The new workshops, the new Mongolian studies, the new management institutions, and the new commodities shocked everyone on the Oriental continent, and made the gentry even more vigilant and resentful.

The emergence of new firearms and new armies eventually failed the extermination operations of the Jin State and the Great Zhou, and the Jin State and the Great Zhou paid more attention to the manufacture of hundreds of crafts, especially the manufacture of weapons.

Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan Zongbi and others of the Jin State have made great efforts to develop new firearms, and the pillars of the court such as Chen Kangbo and Yu Yunwen of the Great Zhou Dynasty have worked hard to support the change.

However, the Qinling power has accumulated for more than ten years, and the tens of thousands of talents cultivated by the new Mongolian school constitute the cornerstone of the new civilization. After the technology research and development and market expansion reached the limit, Li Yifu resolutely raised troops, gave full play to the overall advantages to seize the Sichuan Road, and found a larger container for the new civilization.

From Li Yifu fighting against the whole world to Li Yifu leading the old man to fight the invincible Mongolian iron cavalry, it was exactly ten years.

In ten years, the Jin State carried out a major reform in Saibei and blocked the eastward invasion of the Mongol iron cavalry. In order to obtain labor, the Jin Kingdom invaded Goryeo and used the entire peninsula as a toilet. The Great Zhou was not idle, relying on more than 120 million yuan to form a new naval army, and maintained the balance of power on the sea and the Ryukyu Island, during which the maritime merchant group of the Great Zhou perished the Pujia in Fujian Road under the instigation of Li Yifu.

Li Yifu's in-depth reform of Sichuan Road has left most of the small people at a loss. In order to divert the internal contradictions in the territory under his jurisdiction and find a new market for the suppression of the rapidly growing industrial and commercial forces, Li Yifu swallowed the chaotic Dali State and encouraged the civil armed forces to capture hard labor and obtain wealth.

The South Asian continent is full of wars. On the eve of Li Yifu's decisive battle on the plateau, the royal guards finally opened two outlets to the sea.

The Mongol cavalry, which rose in the steppes, made several expeditions to the west, destroying the water conservancy facilities in the two river basins, and hitting as far as the heart of the heavenly world. The Mongol cavalry, who had seen the style of each tribe, forced the craftsmen of each tribe to work, and developed their equipment and tactics to the pinnacle, gained enough strength to finally aim their fangs at the Han land, and after defeating the Uighur tribes, they marched to the snowy plateau.

Li Yifu did not dare to let his forces fall into the great detour strategy of the Mongol army. He put on his armor again, resolutely concentrated most of the old foundations, a total of 50,000 elites, and 50,000 Mongolian iron cavalry to face off under the city of Lhasa, fighting to the death in the eyes of tens of thousands of Tibetan herdsmen.

Li Yifu led a completely new army that was constantly reformed during the war, armed to the teeth, and trained and managed a completely different army from all other armies.

The Mongol prince led the most outstanding cavalry in human history, led by brave warriors who had slaughtered nothing, seen all kinds of armies, and played urine and rode horses and archery.

In the battle of Fuyi, the Mongolian iron cavalry's brilliant cavalry tactics and bow and arrow attainments almost crushed the fighting spirit of Li Yifu's 50,000 ironclad army.

Although he was repeatedly in danger, Li Yifu's 50,000-strong army relied on close cooperation, iron-framed chariot formations, and armored cavalry to support tenaciously. Tiger squat cannons, bronze cannons, iron-cast cannons, heavy arquebuses and other superior ordnance were put into use one after another, and the casualties of the Mongol army soared rapidly, and the two completely different strong armies fought to the point of exchanging lives for lives.

Li Yifu fought with the Mongol army for three days. There were more than a dozen big battles, more than 100 small battles, and the blood condensed into a red ice field.

Li Yifu did not have sufficient cavalry to completely defeat the terrible Mongol army in one fell swoop. The Mongol army also did not have the extra forces to cut off the supply lines of muskets and artillery.

The Western Liao Empire, which was allied with Li Yifu, sent 50,000 horse infantry troops to the battlefield, and the Tubo tribes, which had always maintained economic and trade contacts with Li Yifu, chose to take refuge, and the tide of the war turned in an instant. With less than 30,000 Mongolian cavalry left, they broke through the encirclement of more than 200,000 troops and wanted to retreat to the steppe, but after all, it was an extravagant hope.

A new generation of Western troops in Guanzhong jumped onto the plateau. Nearly 70,000 young soldiers were constantly scattered by the Mongol iron cavalry, but they gathered again and again to fight to the death, and finally waited for the support of the soldiers and horses of the Tubo tribes and the cavalry of the Western Liao Empire.

All the Mongolian horsemen were killed on the snowy plateau. Nearly 20,000 core tribal soldiers, 16,000 subordinate tribal soldiers, and more than 15,000 servant troops were all wiped out, and the Mongol Empire lost more than 20% of its old foundation, and its vitality was greatly damaged.

In the territory of the Chu State established by Li Yifu, a major breakthrough was finally made in cotton spinning and wool spinning technology.

News of the great technological progress reached the city of Lhasa. Li Yifu, who was arranging for the evacuation of the herdsmen from the plateau, establishing a fortress in the valley of the key mountain passes, and preparing to block the Mongol Empire's counteroffensive on the snowy plateau, breathed a sigh of relief and turned to negotiate with the tyrant.

Li Yifu didn't want to invest a lot of Chu's financial resources in the consumption of the Mongol Empire, because the Jin State actually wanted to break through the ceiling and embark on the same path as Tsarist Russia in the original time and space. What's more, there is also the unparalleled wealth of the Great Zhou regime, and the gentry class is not so easy to deal with.

Tie Le, who dominated the grassland and bullied the Quartet, was able to bend and stretch, and even accepted Li Yifu's conditions. He ransomed his eldest son, organized craftsmen to build new firearms, and completely destroyed the Western Xia kingdom in order to establish workshops and obtain land for food.

Li Yifu watched the transformation of the Jin Kingdom go deep under the impetus of Wanyan Xiyin and other amazing talents, and watched the Great Zhou who recaptured Jingxiang equipped with cannons, but he himself could not do anything. Just because before the steam engine technology and smelting technology were modern, the Mongolian cavalry equipped with cannons was extremely terrifying, and the Chu State could only fight with the Mongol Empire for decades.

The god of luck finally patronized Li Yifu.

The founder of the Mongol Empire, the Great Khan Tiele, was bitten off his lower body and bled to death when he humiliated the princess of Western Xia!

Li Yifu had a good idea, and took advantage of the chaos of the Mongol Empire to use economic and trade exchanges to instigate the rebellion of the steppe tribes. This was not enough, Li Yifu also coerced and lured Lan Tie'er, supported Lan Tie'er's youngest son to be the Great Khan, and then hurriedly raised the weapons of trade and quickly hollowed out the Mongol Empire.

The defense line of the snowy plateau is basically sufficient. After signing a series of agreements with the Mongol Empire, Li Yifu could not wait to lead the young Praetorian Guards, with an average age of less than 20 years, the Bauhinia Army, which was armed with a large number of medium-caliber arquebuses, and the Qinling Army, an expanded and reorganized veteran main force, to the north from Hanzhong.

Li Yifu first incorporated the warlord-ridden Western Army, and then guided the industrial and commercial forces in Chu to operate in various parts of Guanzhong, and by the way established supply lines to support the war. After completing all the preparations, Li Yifu finally led an army of 200,000 to a decisive battle with the Jin State in the Fuping area of Shaanxi.

In the face of the menacing army of the Chu State, the Jin State, which was constantly fighting, finally initially united. Wanyan Zongbi and Wanyan Xiyin each took a step back, Wanyan Zongbi led the army to Xuzhou to stare at Da Zhou, and Wanyan Zonghan who came out of the prison mobilized elite soldiers and strong generals to go out.

The war between the emerging Chu State and the Jin State lasted for one year and two months, and finally ended in the complete retreat of the Jin State with its economic collapse. The state of Chu rushed to the edge of the Yellow River and threatened the Hedong region occupied by the state of Jin at all times.

The Mongol aristocracy finally realized that if they were sucked by the Chu State, the Mongol Empire, which had exhausted its looting gains, would degenerate into the tribal form of a few decades ago. The exhausted Lan Tiel signed a treaty, sold strategic places such as the Hexi Corridor to the Chu State, and went west again with the musket and artillery technology obtained in exchange, and spent several years to conquer tens of millions of square kilometers of territory.

After determining that the main force of the Mongolian iron cavalry left the steppe, Li Yifu launched a war of annihilation. He wanted to strangle the Jin Kingdom before it embarked on another path of modernization.

It was not that the Great Zhou did not want to take advantage of the time when Li Yifu's Chu State and the Mongol Empire, the Jin State and other countries were fighting in turn, and sent troops to contain the Chu army, but they always fell into a pathetic infighting. Reform came to a standstill, the gentry were imprisoned, and Confucianism finally fell behind.

During the previous Chu war, resistance forces from all over South Asia colluded and launched, and Chu immigrants, officials, and merchants could only hide in a few cities. After the state of Chu survived the difficult period, Li Yifu acquiesced to the armed caravans to loot and capture the scarce labor force outside the "safe zone", so the tropical rainforest could not stop the crazy civilian armed forces, and South Asia was pacified again.

The sail fleet, which had been training for several years, finally received the grant. The young generals of the Chu navy took advantage of the huge advantages brought by the sextant and telescopes to defeat hundreds of meniscus warships with artillery. The enterprising court of the state of Chu began to swallow the islands of Southeast Asia, which were rich in spice and jewelry, and the revenue of the state of Chu soared again.

The skyrocketing military spending was not enough for the Chu State to maintain hundreds of thousands of troops thousands of miles away. The state of Chu legislated and issued a large number of treasury bonds, which could not meet the consumption.

With the support of huge sums of money and food, the Chu army headquarters was able to organize 300,000 young and strong men to repair the roads, and then build a large number of rafts to go down the Yellow River. After defeating the 400,000-strong army organized by Yan Zongbi at the junction of Gyeonggi Province and Shandong Road, the Jin rule south of the Yellow River collapsed.

Seeing that the state of Chu was devouring the world, Li Yifu, who had always been extremely vigilant against the gentry class, could hardly be plotted, and the Jiangnan gentry and merchant class actually wanted to sell the Great Zhou royal family to the Chu state.

The little emperor of Chu, who had just ascended the throne, bared his fangs. It turned out that when the little emperor was growing up, he had been taught various knowledge by Li Yifu's people, and he was disgusted with the gentry class in his bones.

With the help of the Chu State, the little emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty co-opted the military generals and the single-family industrial and commercial class, and set off a bloody storm in the south of the Yangtze River. Hundreds of thousands of stubborn gentry, big households, and merchants were killed, and the little emperor scraped together enough money to move to the Dongying Islands, and also gave Li Yifu 10,000 yuan in military expenses.

The panicked Great Zhou is no longer a threat. The prairie began to be sheared by the Chu State, and the tribal leaders who only cared about getting rich and then went to the city to enjoy themselves did not pose the slightest threat to the Chu State.

The state of Chu crossed the Yellow River from two places and attacked the Taiyuan-Datong line and the Daimyofu-Youzhou City line respectively. The fleet of the Chu State sailed thousands of miles, easily wiped out the remnants of the Jin State naval army, and then unloaded the firearms army on the Liaodong Peninsula and Jinkou, and went straight to Youzhou City and the Liaodong Plain.

Along with the army of destroying the country, there were also official receiving teams, civil liquidation teams, and industrial and commercial wealth teams sent by the court of Chu State...... All kinds of troops quickly stabilized the order in the rear, ensuring that the army of Chu could destroy the Jin State in one go.

The city of Taiyuan was burned, the city of Datong was destroyed, and civil strife broke out in the city of Youzhou. These three cases only reveal the cruelty of the war, in fact, Wanyan Xiyin and other Jin Guojunjie led the Jurchen people to fight at the cost of death and injury, but they were still powerless.

Somewhere in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, steam engines began to spew thick smoke.

The Kingdom of Jin perished.

It only took a few years for the Great Zhou royal family to emigrate one million to the Dongying Islands, and two million more in the next twenty years.

Li Yifu led a group of small people in cloth clothes, fought hard for decades, and finally won the world from the barbarians and gentry.

The book ends.
