Chapter 473: The Situation in Various Places
……
……
Because of this, the people of the Khazar Khanate were at least relatively pro-Chinese Empire, but the court of the Khazar Khanate was unrelated.
They only wanted to maintain the status quo, and if the Chinese Empire violated their interests, then the Khazar Khanate would naturally not be polite.
But there was another reason why the Khazar Khanate did not go to war with the Chinese Empire this time, because the Khazar Khanate judged that it was impossible for the Chinese Empire to go to war against them.
It is even more unlikely that the Chinese Empire will expand like the East, after all, the steppes of the East are very barren in the eyes of the Chinese Empire (in the eyes of the Khazar Khanate).
They thought that the Chinese Empire should expand westward or southward, and of course it was more likely that the Chinese Empire would go westward.
The Khazar Khanate also had some sources of intelligence in the Chinese Empire, for the Northern Expedition of the Chinese Empire and the attack on the Pomeranian Kingdom.
The Khazar Khanate saw this as a step toward the westward expansion of the Chinese Empire.
In fact, there was such an idea in the Chinese Empire, and they believed that the Chinese Empire would definitely go west.
But in fact, neither the imperial court of the Chinese Empire nor the Holy Son of Heaven, Gao Yang Yajun, planned to advance westward so quickly.
The Chinese Empire still tends to want to rest and recuperate, and then conquer the grasslands in the east, and wait until the east is calm then the Chinese Empire can send troops to the west unscrupulously.
The steppe khanate had always been a hidden danger in the eyes of the Chinese Empire.
Not only the Chinese Empire, but most of the settled countries considered the steppe khanate to be a hidden danger, as was the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.
Even the Arab Abbasids considered the steppe khanate to be a hidden danger, after all, the steppe khanate was self-serving.
Even if they converted to Sunnis, they still raided the Arab Abbasids from time to time.
Therefore, the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the Chinese Empire both infiltrated the Khazar Khanate intentionally or unintentionally to prevent the Khazar Khanate.
It's just that the infiltration of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire has had some failures, and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire also wants to infiltrate the Cuman Khanate and the Bolgar Khanate.
But this failed, because the Chinese Empire stood in the way, and the two kingdoms saw the religion of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire as no good for them.
The Bolgar Khanate was a bit special, they simply hated Orthodoxy.
After all, a complete and powerful Bolgar Khanate was supposed to be the spread of Orthodox Christianity, making the Kingdom of Bulgaria a vassal state.
True, the people of the Bolgar Khanate believed that the southern Slavic kingdom of Bulgaria was now almost a vassal state of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.
But is that really the case? Not necessarily, the Kingdom of Bulgaria has never been a weak country.
It was only because it was sandwiched between the Chinese Empire and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire that it seemed to be a weak country.
But in fact, the army of the Kingdom of Bulgaria was much more effective than the army of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.
It's just that because of the vast territory of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire could consume the Bulgarian kingdom.
Today's Bulgarian kingdom is capable of capturing Constantinople, the capital of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.
But what about the follow-up? What happens next? That's all there was to the territory of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire in Europe.
Most of the territory of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire was still in Asia Minor and part of Arabia, and these forces could have taken the Kingdom of Bulgaria.
And the army of the Bulgarian Kingdom of the Chinese Empire is indeed invincible, but the victory or defeat is at most four or six.
The army of the Chinese Empire did not completely crush the Bulgarian Kingdom, and it can be found that the southern general Mu En, who was in the south of Luzhou of the Chinese Empire, fought with the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the Bulgarian coalition army every time, and each time the loss was less than the army of the Bulgarian Kingdom.
There were even several times when the troops of the Bulgarian kingdom were barely killed, only a few were seriously wounded.
This is not a deliberate humbling of the Chinese Empire and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Emperor Basil. Macedonia deliberately harmed his own son.
This proves that the Bulgarian kingdom still has a relatively good sense of battle, and they can avoid and resist the offensive of the Chinese Empire in time.
The Chinese Empire was not an attack on the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, and in the eyes of the Chinese Empire, there was almost no difference between the army of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the army of the Kingdom of Bulgaria.
After all, most of the armies on the front line of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire were also militias, and their equipment could not be better than that of the Kingdom of Bulgaria.
It was impossible for the Chinese Empire to ask out loud who was the Eastern Roman-Byzantine Empire and who was the Bulgarian Kingdom before going to war.
There was no need for the Chinese Empire, the Chinese Empire fought completely indiscriminately, and they didn't care about the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the Bulgarian Kingdom.
Anyway, in the ** merit system of the Chinese Emperor, the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the Kingdom of Bulgaria have the same head.
Why should they bother with who they killed? Wouldn't that be a waste of time?
In the camp of the general of the Chinese Empire, the general of the expedition, Meng Shixin, is appointing commanders to fight against the army of the Cuman Khanate.
Perhaps because of his age and personality, Dream Lionheart didn't want to play some tricks like the Rouran general Qi Eun.
Dream Lionheart intends to directly overwhelm people with his own army.
Of course, Meng Lionheart still played some tricks, but these methods were not as ruthless as Qi En.
Dream Lionheart's request for military access is just to cut off the back road of the Cuman Khan's ** team.
This group of people doesn't need to be too many, and of course not too few, almost enough.
Dream Lionheart plans to use sixty percent of his soldiers to fight directly against the army of the Cuman Khanate, while the remaining forty percent of the army is responsible for cutting off the back road.
Dream Lionheart did not do this to defeat the army of the Cuman Khanate, but to make the area bordering the Chinese Empire of the Cuman Khanate the territory of the Chinese Empire.
Therefore, Dream Lionheart directly mobilized the entire army and asked the soldiers of the two nearby counties to be on guard at all times.
Dream Lionheart directly led sixty percent of the army to open the gate of the fortress during the day and rode out of the city on a war horse.
The remaining forty percent of the army had quietly bypassed from the territory of the Chinese Empire to the territory of the Khazar Khanate a day earlier.
They were very low-key, and their march routes within the Khazar Khanate were arranged by the Dream Lionheart and the Khazars.
So there is no need to worry about what they will be hindered or discovered by the people of the Cuman Khanate.
This kind of thing can't happen, Dream Lionheart won't let it happen, and Khazar Khanate's Khan & Emperor Ashina Zechariah won't let it happen.
If this happens, then Ashina Zechariah's plan will not be able to be carried out, so this war can be said to be the Cuman Khanate facing two empires.
The Eastern Army of the Chinese Empire was the elite of the Chinese Empire, while the Khazar Khanate of Ashina Zechariah was the strength of the whole country.
I am afraid that the Cuman Khanate could not have imagined that such a thing would happen! Reading a book and finding the latest chapters by yourself? You're out, WeChat attention Beauty editor helps you find books! It's really a good book to flirt with girls!
