Chapter 630: Great Qin splits
"Your Excellency, this is a report from our clipper ship in Taranto, and the guerrilla fleet to which Luther belongs has left the port." After handing the report that had just arrived in his hand to Elidoan, Josel frowned and said, "But the remaining personnel of our navy in Taranto reported that they did not see the Crusaders boarding the ship, and the logistics convoy did not set off with the guerrilla fleet. ”
"Where is the logistics fleet now? Still in the port of Taranto? Eridoan looked at the report in his hand full of the departure of the Luther fleet, and after a long silence, he suddenly sighed and stepped aside without speaking.
"General, did you order the fleet to be on guard?" Although Josel had a good relationship with Luther, when the main force of his fleet returned to Hong Kong, Luther transferred the fleet in his hand, which in itself did not meet the regulations of the Great Qin Navy, not to mention, Eledoan had also returned, and the transfer of an entire fleet must be approved by Eledogan. Moreover, the logistics fleet did not set off with it, which means that the previously mentioned reinforcements are still clueless so far. He is not a fool, so he naturally understands that he is only afraid that something is wrong, but he just doesn't want to believe it.
"Josel, you secretly sent a clipper ship to the port of Taranto, convey my order, let the navy soldiers and logistics fleet in the port be on standby immediately, and no one should be delusional to mobilize a single soldier without my order." Allydoan was silent for a while, and suddenly gave an order that left Joseph a little dumbfounded. Unlike Luther, however, Josel was obedient to Eridogan, so it wasn't long before a clipper ship broke away from the Grand Fleet and headed for Taranto with full sails.
At this time in Taranto, Archbishop Polo was also ready to follow Agui's orders, waiting for the pillar of the Great Qin Navy to return to the port, and in order to help the other party, he even secretly mobilized his own forces to secretly lurk and prepare to help the other party in the event of a conflict between Luther and Elidogan. It's just that neither Polo himself nor Agui can figure out whether Elidogan has the intention to break with Luther, after all, the current situation in the Apennine Peninsula is on the verge of breaking out, and the Holy See has begun to covet the secular power more and more after the power of the Roman court has failed. The entire Great Qin Empire has little ruling base in the western Taixi region, and hundreds of years of division and the awakening of various tribes in the west have made it cold and confrontational towards the rule of Great Qin. And this attitude gradually shifted to the bright side after Great Qin's own military strength was exhausted. At this time, it was time for these contradictions to erupt, and Eledogan and Luther were not so much a mutation in the struggle for power within the navy as a direct confrontation between the power of the Holy See and the royal court. Luther has been developed by the Holy See to be his spokesman, and Eridoan's current status and prestige in the Great Qin State are not wanted to be seen by the Holy See.
However, these broke out directly after Eridoan led the main force of the Great Qin Navy to Taranto Port. In order not to give Elidoan time to react, the Crusaders chose to attack when Elidoan landed, so as to destroy Elidoan with superior forces on land, and Luther's naval guerrilla fleet also entered the port at this time, trying to take down the Great Qin naval fleet.
Luther and the Holy See's plans failed one after another because of Eridoan's advance preparations, and they were ready to attack Eridoan in the port, but Taranto was the home port of the navy after all, so the remaining personnel from all over the country began to rush from all directions when the crusaders rushed up, and a big battle broke out between the two sides in the port. Although the Crusaders were numerous, they could not even do a cold weapon in their hands, and the navy, whether it was the sailors or the defenders who stayed at the garrison, had the same muskets in their hands, and they had an advantage in long-range shooting, and after learning the identity of the other party, Eridoan immediately ordered the warships that were not docked to shell directly, and bombarded the Crusaders' charging formation with the fire of naval guns. And at the same time, Joseph also intercepted Luther's guerrilla fleet outside the port, and the naval warships flying the flag of Eridoan kept blowing the horn of assembly, making Luther almost unable to control his fleet, after all, this navy was created by Eridogan in terms of personnel and tactics, and all the naval soldiers had no intention of fighting after seeing Eledoan's banner, and even some of the warships broke away from Luther's control and came to Josel's naval formation. Seeing that the situation was not good, Luther wanted to withdraw, but was surrounded by Josel, and a land battle broke out in the port of Taranto, as well as a major battle at sea.
At this time, Polo also began to mobilize his men to participate in the battle wearing the uniforms of the Great Qin Army, constantly shouting the name of Elidoan, and then storming the formation of the Crusaders, and the naval soldiers loyal to Elidoan flanked the Crusaders, and the more than 10,000 Crusaders who transferred Luther gradually forced out of Taranto City to cover Elidoan from the port into the city.
The land battle ended quickly when Polo's men joined in, and the Holy See's original intention of killing Eridoan by sneak attack came to naught, and the naval battle was almost one-sided. The fluctuating Lutheran guerrilla fleet had no intention of fighting, and after being outflanked by Josel's army, they immediately scattered and fled, and several warships raised white flags as prisoners. When Luther saw that the situation was not good, he simply fled from the Apennines to the west with a full sail.
The battle, which was almost a farce, came and went, but it made Eridogan realize that there was no way to ease the situation in the Apennines. Who is behind the crusaders is in control does not require any thought to be concluded. Therefore, after Polo appeared, the two sides soon reached an agreement, Polo used the crusader forces under his control to help Elidogan quickly quell the rebellion of the Holy See, but the Great Qin court had to move out from the Apennines and return to Byzantium. Elidogan didn't say anything at this point, and nodded directly in agreement, the current situation no longer allowed him to think too much, the Great Qin Empire returned to the ancient city of Rome after being lost for hundreds of years, if it was at the peak of its power, it might be able to rely on its strong power to suppress these tribes who had long been accustomed to self-determination and return to the Roman era, but at present, if the royal court continues to be placed in Rome, maybe it will really be completely overturned by these large and small city-state tribes.
As soon as the two reached an agreement, news of the independence of Venice and Florence arrived. Under the thread of the Xuanying Guard, the two important city-states of the Apennines, which were already in an independent state, broke away from the rule of Great Qin. They were originally in an independent state, but they were forcibly taken by the navy led by Eridogan, and after the secret guard passed the news of the negotiations between Polo and Eridogan in advance, the two places no longer had the burden to declare their independence directly. The wave of independence of Venice and Florence quickly spread throughout the Apennines and gradually moved northward, and even the Iberian Peninsula, which had been recaptured from the Great Food Empire, was followed by turmoil. This gave Eridogan no time to try to convince His Majesty the Emperor in the Roman court, and directly used his prestige to order the royal court guard to start forcibly relocating the officials and nobles in the city to board the ship, relying on the loyalty of the navy and the joint efforts of the royal court guard, this relocation ended quickly in the second half of the thirteenth year of the apocalypse. Although the Great Qin Imperial Court, which had returned to the eastern region, had completely lost control of the western part of Taixi, and the eastern region had been devastated by the Great War, it had successfully gained a foothold.
It's just that because of the forcible transfer of the royal court guards for relocation, Elidoan was announced to be relieved of all his duties after stabilizing the Great Qin royal court. It's just that at this time, after the order of the Great Qin royal court was transmitted to the navy, it was not executed by Josel, but under the leadership of Eridoan, the main force of the Great Qin navy moved west from Byzantine port directly to the Athens area to station, and relying on the advantage that Elidoan itself was an Athenian, the entire Greek peninsula began to become independent and became Eridoan's private domain. In this way, the Great Qin Empire, while its eastern territory of Asia Minor had not yet been recovered, lost the fertile land along the Aegean Sea, leaving only the Balkan Peninsula and the Danube River in the north.
Since the Great Qin royal court washed back to Byzantium, the entire western region of Taixi was completely overturned by the wave of independence, and countless large and small ethnic groups that were originally independent and semi-independent began to demarcate regions to declare statehood, or to fight each other for territory. The main force of the Gauls, who were originally on the island of England, also took the opportunity to return to the Gallic Plain and announced with the Normans to form a joint formation of the New Frankish Kingdom, and in a very short period of time extended the territory from the Gallic Plain to the south to the Mediterranean coast. But this also laid the foundation for the battles that would continue for nearly a hundred years between the Frankish kingdom and these large and small principalities.
In this series of independent waves that directly overthrew the Great Qin Empire, the Xuanying Wei Taixi Branch began to set its sights on the western and northern regions of Taixi after successfully allowing Polo to gain a foothold in the Apennine Peninsula. The western Iberian Peninsula itself was snatched by the Great Qin people from the Great Food Empire, although the predecessor of the Iberian Peninsula also belonged to the Great Qin Empire, but after all, it has been occupied by the Great Cannibals for a hundred years, and the spread of the Heavenly Sect here has gradually taken root in the hearts of the people. Therefore, Xuan Yingwei's arrangement in the Iberian Peninsula is more to use the Celestial Sect to set off a rebellion against the rule of Great Qin, and use religion to fight against religion, so as to draw the religious resistance forces in Gaul to the Iberian Peninsula, making it the base camp of the Celestial Sect in the Tessie region, and gradually the power of the Celestial Sect here began to surpass the local Celestial City and the Baghdad region, which gradually plunged the Iberian Peninsula into a long-term division and confrontation. Qin Kong's plan to dismember Great Qin even did not even expect in the end that the originally unified Great Qin Empire would be completely changed in just three days, and even the Vikings who had been subdued in the northern region began to cross the North Sea in the cold winter to appear in Latvia and expel the local native and Slavic tribes.
At this time, when the Great Qin Empire was mired in internal strife and could not take care of itself, Wujie, who had been actively preparing, began to lead his army into Asia Minor according to Wan Yi's order and began to fight to expel Amdullah. Originally, Amdullah planned to return to Baghdad directly, but he couldn't stand the drastic changes in the territory of the Great Qin Empire that came too suddenly, so Ulam and the other human owners should stay local for the time being and wait and see if there was a chance to fish in troubled waters. But the appearance of Usuke made him break the last bit of thought, the connection of Asia Minor and Central Asia Minor must be the biggest strategic goal of the empire in the East at this time, and any person and force standing in the way of this behemoth will inevitably be ruthlessly crushed by the other party. Amdullah's quick decision made it easy for Usuke to take all of Asia Minor, and after Hamoud led his army to receive it, he quickly returned to join the reinforcements from the country and crossed the Dnieper River towards the Russian royal city of Kiev. This was the expansion plan carried out by the Kingdom of Huangxis under the grand strategy of the Tang Empire. At the beginning, Usuke was worried that this step of expansion would make Datang misunderstand, so he not only asked Hammud's opinion, but also sent a letter to the headquarters of the Western Expeditionary Army, asking Wan Yi for guidance. However, Datang itself has no intention of interfering in the northwestern region of Thailand, and this move of the Kingdom of Huangjia gave Wan Yi another idea, so Wan Yi directly nodded in agreement and said that Datang would fully support Huangjiasi's move. It would be better to drive the Slavic peoples as a whole to the west, forcing them to enter the Tessi hinterland such as the Danube.
So Wu Jie at this time is equivalent to getting the sword of Shang Fang, the two years of uninterrupted recuperation and the support from the Tang Dynasty made this nomadic people recover, but also changed the previous nomadic living habits, settled down on the east bank of the Dnieper River, began to engage in farming, and as a part of the Tang Dynasty's domestic industrial and commercial industry chain, the mining industry and the development of various basic products in the Tang Dynasty are still very fast, which also allows the Kingdom of Huangjia to accumulate a certain amount of wealth, and the strength of all aspects has been greatly recovered. On the other hand, Kyiv Russia cooperated with the Great Qin Empire in the previous war to exhaust its own potential, not only was the main battle force almost lost, but even the last elite force of the Gongwei royal court was borrowed by Elidogan before. Therefore, after Ukjie led his army to cross the river and march westward, he encountered almost no strong resistance, and the royal city of Kiev was quickly taken. However, Usuke did not wipe out the other party, but gave two opinions to the Russians in Kiev, one is to surrender to the Russians, and the second is to allow them to move in detail to find their own new territory. As a result, the millions of Slavs who had been living in and around Kiev Russia began to rush into the eastern plains and northern seashores of Tessy to compete with the descendants of the Holy Roman Empire who lived there. The division of the whole Tessie began to enter the level of national survival and territorial struggle. (https:)
