The war in Europe reached the far east in less than twenty days. The reason for this was that the telegraph from Kashgar through the Aral Sea and across the Caspian Sea to Baku had already been opened. The telegraph line from Baku to the Black Sea military port of Azov is also being laid, if it is not completed, the transmission of information from Europe can be shortened by a few days, or even more, because of the Crimean War a few years ago, the telegraph line from European countries to Sevastopol on the Crimean peninsula has been built, but because of the boycott of Britain and the Ottoman Empire, the line from Istanbul to Sevastopol has been artificially cut off, as long as it is repaired, Or re-lay the telegraph cable from Athens to Sevastopol to the town of Azov, which would completely connect the telegraph lines of the European countries with the Chinese Empire.

Nowadays, the Bosphorus Strait into the Black Sea has been blocked due to the war between the Ottoman Empire and the navies of Greece and Egypt, and the intelligence can only be sent by telegram from Europe to Kyiv through the intelligence officers of the Secret Service Division in Europe, and then to Baku by land, and then to Shengjing by telegram.

A large stack of information was collected by Fan Ruzeng and personally delivered to Feng Yunshan, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, who was in the palace. Feng Yunshan was shocked when he learned that there was a chaotic war in Europe, a large-scale armed workers' uprising in Paris, and the seizure of Paris.

"Europe is in complete chaos! Interesting, interesting! Feng Yunshan muttered to himself: "France has entered the era of the Paris Commune ahead of history!" And, it seems, it's been a real success!

However, it is difficult to say that when these European countries react, they will definitely extinguish the revolutionary fire set off by the workers. Oh, it seems to be really interesting! ”

Feng Yunshan was very interested in the dynamics of Europe, and took the stack of telegrams from Fan Ruzeng's hand and looked at them eagerly.

The young Tsar Alexander III did not seem to have to be the king of the dead country. The Russian army defeated the Prussian army that occupied St. Petersburg and regained their capital, although the whole of southern Europe, most of the later Ukraine and the whole of Azerbaijan in the middle and lower Volga regions of Tsarist Russia and the Caucasus had been occupied by Shi Dakai's westward expeditionary army, but for the Tsar, he would definitely prefer to lose these than to lose St. Petersburg. What's more, these territories, his own army was not snatched from his Tsarist Russia, but from the Austrian Empire and the Ottoman Empire.

It seems that the Kingdom of Prussia, by the way, is now called the German Empire, and if it does not send troops to attack Tsarist Russia, I am afraid that it will recover after Tsarist Russia has breathed for half a year and a year, and then I am afraid that Tsarist Russia will completely regain its foothold, and even counterattack. However, even so, Feng Yunshan is not worried about Tsarist Russia, the current Chinese Empire is much stronger than Tsarist Russia, and in addition to attacking Tsarist Russia by force, Feng Yunshan has other better ways to weaken Tsarist Russia's strength, plus the German Empire's enmity with him, it should not make it strong again.

And Germany doesn't seem to be feeling well. Although France was defeated, the French people's commune was established in civil strife, and the power controlled by the working proletariat had already denied the armistice signed between the previous provisional government and Germany, calling it a traitorous treaty, and claimed to drive out the German invaders and recover the French lands.

Although France was defeated, Feng Yunshan knew that its actual strength was not much worse than that of Germany today, but Napoleon III and his generals were wrong in command, and the troops were not concentrated. If we really wait for the crazy proletarians of the Paris Commune to take power in France and use the power of the whole of France, although it is not necessarily certain that they will be able to defeat Germany, at least they will lose both sides. Fortunately, the so-called French People's Commune Republic, which is now controlled by the Paris Commune, has not yet completely mastered France, but is only confined to the Paris area.

However, the enemies of the newly formed German Empire were not only Tsarist Russia and France, but also the Austrian Empire, Denmark and Great Britain. If Germany has always been strong, it is fine, but if the war is unfavorable and the wall is pushed down, I am afraid that even if Germany is militarily strong, it will be a little troublesome. What's more, judging by these news, there were also quite a few workers' uprisings within Germany. Although it did not lead to the overthrow of German rule, it was inevitable that it would involve a large number of troops and even industrial losses.

Feng Yunshan didn't plan how to help Germany, and he was able to hold back some of the forces of the Ottoman Empire and the Austrian Empire, which was already very worthy of him.

Interestingly, the Austrian Empire, it seems, did not take advantage of anything. As a large country in Central Europe, not only did it not become the head of the German Confederation, but even the original territories, Bohemia, Moldavia and other regions were all lost, and even the Italian army that had just been unified was attacked, demanding to occupy the southwestern territories. According to the information sent, it seems that because of Austria's defeat in several foreign wars, Hungary in its country has a faint tendency towards independence.

Nothing is saddest than Ottoman Turkey. In addition to the heavy losses of Tsarist Russia, the Ottoman Empire was actually even more miserable in this European civil strife. Now not only was the eastern and southern part of the country occupied by Shi Dakai's Western Expeditionary Army and the Persian army, but also the troops sent by Greece and Egypt, which were once their vassals, directly occupied the entire northern Arab region such as Syria, separating all the Arab parts of the Ottoman Empire. Not only that, but the Egyptian army even attacked its capital, Istanbul, in a vain attempt to replace it completely. Feng Yunshan couldn't help but sigh secretly about this, his butterfly actually set off a storm that changed the whole world.

What's more, the old empire of the Kingdom of Spain actually received the influence of the Paris Commune in France, and directly broke out into a workers' uprising and became a republic ruled by the proletariat, the Republic of the Spanish People's Commune, which has never happened in the history that Feng Yunshan knew, and Feng Yunshan could not guess what to do next. Could it be that after the Republic of Ireland, there will be two republics dominated by proletarian workers, France and Spain?

Because of its own existence, the state of the dictatorship of the proletarians in Europe appeared fifty or sixty years ahead of schedule? Could it be that because of the emergence of this group of workers' uprisings, the ideas transmitted will still affect the side of the Chinese Empire, and even overthrow their own thrones? Even if Feng Yunshan knew that the democratic republic was an inevitable trend in history, he couldn't help but have some gains and losses, after all, after being the emperor for more than ten years, after fully enjoying this supreme power, no one wanted to give up. Therefore, Feng Yunshan even hoped with some ill intentions that those European countries would take action against France and Spain and strangle these two people's commune republics that did not conform to the characteristics of this era.

Therefore, Feng Yunshan ordered Fan Ruzeng: "Spread my order, let King Yi's western expeditionary army stop further attacks on Europe and the Ottomans. For the seized southern territories of Tsarist Russia, except for a few important strongholds, fortresses, seaports, and important river port towns, which were guarded by garrisons, the rest of the places were handed over to the Kalmyks and Kazakhs to take care of.

The Arabian Peninsula, which was occupied with Persia, supported the local Arab power, but it had to be obedient. We, the Chinese Empire, as the suzerain, should obtain all the rights to mine exploitation.

As for the European countries, let them toss each other on their own. ”

Fan Ruzeng hurriedly complied with the order to send a telegram.

Feng Yunshan sighed, but it was a pity that the world war that broke out in Europe had not been completely ignited, and it seemed to have some signs of extinguishing.

Now the territory of the Chinese Empire is too large to be controlled, and it cannot be expanded again. Otherwise, once there are too many ethnic groups in the interior and there is a riot, it will affect the stability of the entire empire. It is better to cultivate agents to consolidate the external environment first, and then digest the existing territories within the empire. With the huge population base of the Chinese nationality, it will not be long before they will spread out in all directions and adopt some tough measures to promote Chinese culture and Chinese people to all the frontiers of the empire, and accelerate the formation of a stable empire. Especially now, taking advantage of the chaos in Europe, the Chinese Empire should consolidate itself and vigorously develop it to welcome the arrival of the second industrial revolution.
