As soon as the war to conquer Europa was confirmed, the entire Ming Empire began intense preparations.

Because considering that Europa is also considered a powerful country, and the Ming Dynasty occupied Europa this time to directly rule the region, the number of troops needed was more than 200,000.

Zhu Youxiao personally issued an order to immediately recruit 600,000 retired officers and soldiers and young people into the army, and to organize and train 600,000 new troops, totaling 800,000 army, 400,000 navy, and 50,000 air force and artillery units.

As soon as the mission of war was confirmed, the state apparatus of the entire empire was set to work at high speed.

Orders for a large amount of war resources were successively placed by the Ministry of Industry to the manufacturing bureaus, institutes, and workshops, and the procurement of basic cotton cloth and grain to the procurement of guns, ammunition, and medicine.

All of a sudden, it was like a heart-booster injected into the veins of Da Ming's huge giant beast, blooming with new vitality.

Countless white pigs were whipped to work overtime, and after the spread of electric lights, night work began long ago, and the initial eight hours have been extended to twelve hours.

A large number of newly developed weapons were successively equipped with troops, and Jinyiwei once again infiltrated Europa on a large scale.

And the household department and the major foreign trade companies and the coastal governors are looking for nothing to create friction with the West, that is, to find a pretext for war to attack Europa.

The poor countries of Europa are now powerless to compete with the Ming Dynasty, and in order not to anger the Ming Dynasty, they can only endure it again and again.

It's just that the countries of Europa don't know that the Ming Dynasty has made it clear that they want to destroy them, and in their opinion, they still hope to survive on the other side of the Atlantic without provoking this powerful empire.

At present, the Ming Dynasty's upcoming military campaign against Europa is still top secret, and almost no one knows about it except for important members of the imperial court, even Galileo, who is dedicated to research.

Because of this, many Western nobles are still ignorant and ignorant to experience life in Daming and worship everything here.

However, through the more and more arrogant and domineering actions of the Ming Empire, some of the more intelligent people in the Western countries also felt the crisis.

Franc has begun to have frequent contact with red-haired ghosts, and France has also sent envoys to England.

However, these Europa countries are very weak in the end, and they dare not contact them openly, for fear of angering the Ming Empire.

But the Ming Empire was still angry, and Wen Tiren blurted out and scolded directly in front of the messenger of the Buddha Langji, scolding them for not knowing how to lift up, and intending to oppose the Ming Dynasty.

And the messenger of the Franco machine can only obediently admit his mistakes, and no matter how many grievances and resentments he has, he can only swallow them in his stomach.

In the summer of the forty-third year of the Apocalypse, the first batch of troops of the Ming Dynasty to march into Europa began to set off, this group of troops was composed of the third army and the seventh army, led by the veteran Fu Dahai, and first brought a large number of grain and grass to Dongyuan Mansion.

The so-called Dongyuan Mansion is the name of the current Ming Dynasty, before which it was called Doria, and Romania is only separated by the Black Sea, and Romania is next to Italy.

Now, on the north side of the Black Sea is the Rakshasa Kingdom, on the west side of the Black Sea is the Europa States, and on the south side of the Black Sea is the Ottoman Empire.

After the more than 200,000 advance troops arrived at Dongyuan Mansion, the first to be nervous were the Rakshasa Kingdom and the Ottoman Empire.

Fortunately, the Ottoman Empire, although this regional power across Europe and Asia was dissatisfied with the expansion of the Ming Empire, did not show much fear, but only strengthened its vigilance and transferred back the troops facing Europa one after another.

And the Rakshasa country has long been frightened by the Ming Empire, and its most elite Cossack cavalry is now gone, so when the Ming advance army arrived at Dongyuan Mansion, the Rakshasa country was busy while also transferring troops to strengthen defense, and at the same time sent generous gifts and beauties to bribe the veteran Fu Dahai to find out the reason for the sudden increase in troops of the Ming Dynasty.

On the contrary, Romania and Italy, which are only separated by the Black Sea, have not yet been alarmed, and they have even breathed a sigh of relief.

Because in their opinion, the next move of the Ming Empire is to conquer the Ottoman Empire or the Rakshasa Kingdom first.

The short-sighted Holy See and other Europa countries have always had deep contradictions with these two countries because of their differences in religious beliefs, especially with the Ottoman Empire, and now seeing the Ottoman Empire transfer troops back to defense, the number of troops in the European Balkans has been sharply reduced, and even the idea of taking the opportunity to counterattack the Ottoman Empire.

Fu Dahai was the only surviving general among the early officers and students of the Royal Military Academy founded by His Majesty Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Ming Dynasty, and Qin Botong and Chang Yanling have both passed away due to many years of injuries.

Only Fu Dahai is still alive, but among the early officers, the most unclean is this Fu Dahai, when crusading against Japan, the Third Army can be said to be full of evil, and Fu Dahai has more women of all ethnic groups in his own house than Zhu Youxiao.

This lustful and unsparing Fu Dahai is the longest-lived officer in the early days, which can only show that this person is genetically strong.

The obese rich sea hugged the Yanma offered by the Rakshasa country is a meal, and accepted the bribe of the Rakshasa country unceremoniously, and also directly dropped a sentence: "Your Majesty didn't let us fight anyone, Your Majesty just asked us to collect money, Your Majesty plans to build a road from the capital to Dongyuan that spans tens of thousands of miles, and the money for this road repair has not yet been settled, so Your Majesty said, you dynasties, you have to donate money, whoever donates less will be beaten, the Ottoman Empire has donated two million silver dollars." ”

Hearing this, the Rakshasa Kingdom donated three million silver dollars, and Fu Dahai also got three million silver dollars plus a group of beauties for nothing.

The second group arrived at the Twelfth Army and the Ninth Army led by Jiao Lian, before the expansion of the Ming Army, these two armies were the basis of the cavalry of the Second Army, so now these two armies are also cavalry.

However, Jiao Lian received orders from Hanchuan, in the area of present-day Tbilisi, which was next to the Ottoman Empire, but there was an avenue leading directly to Romania.

If the road was unhindered, Jiao Lian's cavalry could rush into Italian territory in a matter of days.

The Ottoman Empire was indeed panicked, and suddenly more than 400,000 troops appeared next to him, and at the same time, Europa's side was also ready to move.

Therefore, the Ottoman Empire also had to suspect that Europa and the Ming Empire might have made some deal privately, so they hurriedly sent envoys to find Fuhaihai.

Fu Dahai told the Ottoman Empire that Italy and Asia were indeed interested in uniting with the Ming Dynasty to plan the Ottoman Empire, but His Majesty the Ming Emperor did not make up his mind that if the Ottoman Empire could fund the construction of the Ming Dynasty in Asia with two million silver dollars, the Ming Empire would believe that the Ottoman Empire was a more worthy partner, and was willing to deal with Europa with the Ottoman Empire.

Although the Ottoman Empire was also dissatisfied with the Ming Dynasty, it did not want the Ming Dynasty to invest in Europa, so it had to come up with this money.

Fu Dahai used this deception to directly obtain the advance military expenses, which can be regarded as the first contribution in this war against Europa.
