Chapter 265: The Beginning of the Empire

Spring goes to summer, and Jingxing's four-year Tianzhu is destined to have a profound impact on the world.

The battle between the two kings of the Ningwang and Anwang clans had already shaken the Central Plains, and only a few months later, the fall of the Ilkhanate shocked the countries of the world!

The Mongols who swept across the Eurasian continent in the past made such a deep impression on the Romans that until now the West still thinks that the four khanates are still one of the top powers in the world.

You must know that just half a year ago in Western Asia, the Ilkhanate was still pressing Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire, and in Eastern Europe and Northern Europe, although Poland, Lithuania, Romania, Moscow and other grand principalities have become independent one after another, and there are signs of rising one after another, but these countries that have just escaped from the clutches of the Golden Horde have not yet mustered up the courage to challenge their former masters.

In fact, the Golden Horde was the most declining of the four khanates, but it still holds the Ural Mountains and the Ural River east of the Ural River to this day. It still maintains a mobilization force of at least half a million horsemen.

Such a country is far from what the current Grand Duke of Moscow, Vladimir, dares to peep into. True, in this world there is no great Russia, the great Romanov dynasty has not yet begun. The Iron Horsemen of the Golden Horde hovered over the Great Plains of Eastern Europe like vultures, threatening the poor peoples of Northeast Europe at all times.

The locust-like Mongol horsemen still had the habit of wreaking havoc on the wretched Great Plains of Eastern Europe every few years, which the steppe people regarded as a sack of grain ready to cash.

The Golden Horde is already so strong, speaking of which, the former Ilkhanate is stronger than the Golden Horde in everyone's impression, after all, the opponents of the Golden Horde are all small things like Moscow, Lithuania or something, while the opponent of the Ilkhanate is the famous Byzantine Empire.

The emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and although Byzantium was now in inevitable decline, the European nations still revered its strength.

It was the presence of Byzantium that kept the Ilkhanate in the way that saved everyone from the harassment of the terrible barbarian horses, and not from the harassment of the countries of Northeast Europe.

The strategic situation of the two countries is far better than that of the Ilkhanate, which has always been under the impression of the Byzantine Empire.

And now, just like this, a powerful Ilkhanate has been destroyed like this, and almost everyone is unable to react quickly, which can imagine the fear that this news brought to Europeans.

Although there has been no news of the death of Khan King Kurban, the fall of most of the country, especially Tabriz, has signaled the end of the country.

And this is only one of the two countries that Tianzhu destroyed in a year? Tianzhu almost destroyed two countries in one year, which were not inferior to him in terms of size or strength!

How violent is such news!

The news was like a hurricane frantically sweeping towards the four corners of the continent.

Countless countries were suddenly shocked to learn that in the center of the continent, at some point, a country comparable to the two empires of the Mengyuan and the Great Song Dynasty had risen again.

And what's even more terrifying is that after all, the two empires of Mengyuan and the Great Song Dynasty are located in the east of the mainland, and they are still holding each other back, whether it is in terms of distance or influence, it is impossible for the two empires to withdraw their hands to threaten the west of the continent tens of thousands of miles away, but this new Tianzhu Empire is very close to everyone.

Another terrible whip of God? Or is it the same yellow peril that happened to Mongolia in the past?

The brutal memories carved into the genes of the Europeans soon filled the body with fear. When countries realized this, they quickly turned their attention away from the competition for resources in the New World.

The successive naval battles between Spain and England ceased to fight, and the French advance on the Low Countries quickly ended without a hitch.

Netherlands, France, Prussia, England, Sweden, Spain...... The eyes of the European countries have been unprecedentedly focused on this empire called Tianzhu.

At this time, all countries discovered that in Yanzhou, in the Mediterranean, this country seems to have arrived at the doorstep?

……………………………………

At the northern foot of the Himalayas, Qi Chang, the Marquis of Tianzhu Jiang, with 7,000 people under his command, finally crossed the roof of the world and appeared on the plateau.

The Tibetan Plateau, a land that the Han people had never set foot in since the Tang Dynasty in the previous dynasty, is now in front of his army.

Recalling the hardships of crossing this terrible Himalaya, Qi Chang almost wanted to cry with joy. If he could, he definitely didn't want to face this moat, but Jiang Guo wanted to develop, and this was the only direction.

There was a reason why he Qichang chose to march into Tibet.

Those princes of the Senate may envy him Jiang is located at the southern foot of the Himalayas, with a vast area, rich water and heat resources, steep terrain, humid climate, and many rivers in the territory of the Brahmaputra River, the Kamen River, the Xiba Xiaqu, the Danba Qu, and the Chayu River, which is simply the foundation of the natural state.

But who knows the suffering of the Jiang State that was sealed here, and it was blocked by other princes' territories everywhere, neither by the sea, nor by the transportation. Even though it is backed by the Himalayas, the most dangerous place in the world, there is almost no production, so that the princes of all walks of life in the country come together to talk about Jiang Guolai, but they only know that Jiang Guo's specialty is only the giant trees in the mountains and forests.

This really made him Qi Chang embarrassed.

On the surface, the Marquis of Jiang Guo is the head of all the princes of Tianzhu except for the Marquis of Tianfang, but in fact, everyone knows that in terms of the production and wealth of the fiefdom, Jiang Guo is no longer ranked among the princes of Zhu today. Especially in the past hundred years, the maritime trade of various countries has flourished, and the princes who were sealed to the sea in the past, and even the princes whose fiefs are only the size of some palms, have become rich, and they seem to be comparable to his Jiang country.

In today's world, everyone is advancing with the times, and if you think about it like this, the famous first marquis of the founding of the country and the rock army of his Qi family will be forgotten by the world.

Therefore, it is imperative to enter Tianzhu this time.

This idea has actually been around for a long time, and it has recently troubled several generations of the heads of the Jiang Guohou Qi family.

Qi Chang came back from purchasing guns and artillery from Mengzhou to train the new army, which was to prepare for this.

A few months passed, and Qi Chang was still a little hesitant, worried that he was not prepared enough, but when the news of the invasion of the Ilkhanate by the alliance of the princes of Jizhou Hou Zhangjia and other princes in the west came through, it was like giving him Qi Chang a stimulant. The alliance of the princes of the Western Road fought the former Ilkhanate, and the process was so smooth, so the Tubo Plateau was almost like a savage, and he Qichang had no fear.
