On January 1, 1700, the threshold of the 18th century was officially reached, and after ten years of shipbuilding and internal integration, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's rule in Europe and North Africa finally saw results and entered the formalization.

At the same time, the Russian Empire, with the support of the 'advanced weapons' eliminated by the Taiping Army, beat and crushed the nomadic countries in Central Asia one by one, and after paying the price of hundreds of thousands of gray cattle, completely destroyed the military alliance of Central Asian nomads led by the Kazakh Khanate, and expanded the border of the Russian Empire to the border of the Persian Sassanid Empire in Central Asia!

However, with the policy of the Russian Empire, it would not be long before the ruled nomadic tribes of Central Asia would become the new grey cattle, unable to resist under the traditional tyranny of the Russian Empire, either voluntarily or coercion.

Because those who dared to resist died on the battlefield!

Compared to the great achievements of the Russian Empire, the military expansion of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in this decade was much more conservative, only expanding its borders to the Arabian Peninsula and beginning to meddle in the internal affairs of the Ottoman Turkish Empire!

It's almost time to tear up the original armistice treaty!

However, Hong Tiancheng had a bigger goal, so he was not in a hurry to make a move against the Ottoman Turkish Empire!

After the timeline entered the 18th century, the indigenous people of the American continent were being devastated by the white Europeans who were driven by the Taiping army, and they were constantly being hungry, and the Indian Peninsula was also in flames because of the strong invasion of the French Bourbon Dynasty, the Mughal Empire had completely collapsed, and the Maratha League and other Indian princely states were all ambitious to be independent and self-governing or compete for hegemony in the Indian Peninsula!

The monkeys in Southeast Asia also felt the deep malice of the Spanish government-in-exile and the Portuguese government-in-exile who wanted to expand their resources, and this pair of brothers and sisters has gradually had a tendency to unite, after all, the former Spanish royal family and the Portuguese royal family either surrendered to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom or were killed by the Taiping army, and during the joint exploration of the Americas, the two sides continued to deepen cooperation to attack the indigenous countries of South America.

Therefore, the archipelago states of Southeast Asia have gradually fallen under the union of Spain and Portugal, and ten years is enough time for them to gradually recover!

At a time when the whole world was at war, the European continent and North Africa entered a period of real peace, and even the black uncles of North Africa were disciplined and submissive by the predominantly white patrol force.

Hong Tiancheng has no good impression of white people, and he is completely disappointed in black people.

No matter how brutal white people were in their original history, it is undeniable that white people at least have a positive and enterprising spirit and shed a lot of blood for colonizing the world, but what about black uncles......

Even in the 21st century, black-run Africa is a mess!

This is not a problem of the system, but the general laziness of the black race!

Therefore, Hong Tiancheng does not believe in the management ability of blacks at all, and has always used whites to manage blacks in North Africa and urge blacks to work.

If you don't work, you will be sent to Siberia to suffer from the cold!

Over time, even if the laws of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom did not explicitly stipulate it, new unspoken rules of racial hierarchy appeared in North Africa, with Han Chinese first, white people second, and third......

Compared to whites who have no human rights, blacks are as cheap as slaves in North Africa!

Of course, Hong Tiancheng didn't care about such a trivial matter, because in ten years, he had already assembled a huge fleet that was enough to be responsible for tens of thousands of troops fighting across the oceans!

The most important thing is that Hong Tiancheng can ensure that the logistics and ammunition of these tens of thousands of troops are sufficiently supplied.

On the sea logistics line, there is no restriction on the terrain of mountains and rivers, and there is no decent opponent on the ocean who dares to confront the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom with two invincible ironclad ships, so the safety and transportation efficiency of the sea transportation line greatly surpass that of the land route!

On January 1, 1700, the first Taiping army to expedition against the Manchu Dynasty officially set sail!

However, before that, Hong Tiancheng needs some springboards, such as the important port cities on the coast of the Indian peninsula, the entrance and exit islands of the Strait of Malacca!

As a result, the French Bourbon dynasty became the first unlucky bastard, and the French Bourbon dynasty in 1700 had already escaped the embarrassment when it first arrived, occupying one-third of the territory of the Indian peninsula, subduing a large number of Indian princely states, and becoming the most powerful military party on the Indian peninsula!

However, the strongest French Bourbon army was mainly armed with flintlock pistols, supplemented by a small number of mini rifles......

Not surprisingly, the Taiping expeditionary fleet was able to defeat the French Bourbon convoy in just one day, and then landed in a large area of port cities along the Indian peninsula.

The invincible French Bourbon Guards in the Indian Peninsula faced the firepower network composed of machine guns, artillery and German 98k rifles of the Taiping Army, which was defeated faster than the original anti-Han alliance!

After fighting for a long time with a weak scumbag like India's Ah San, the combat effectiveness of the French army has long been inferior to that year......

It was only at this moment that the heirs of the French Bourbon dynasty remembered the horror of being once dominated by the Han Chinese!

After a battle, after tens of thousands of the main forces of the Bourbons were routed by the Taiping army of a mere division, the French Bourbons finally gave up resistance.

It turned out that the anti-Han alliance could not defeat the relatively weak Taiping Heavenly Kingdom when it was there, let alone the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which had now integrated Europe and North Africa?

The reason why the French Bourbon dynasty resisted was just to test the supply ability of the Taiping army to fight across the ocean.

When they saw the reckless firepower of the Taiping army, the French Bourbons were relentless, and they already understood that the Taiping army had built a large transoceanic fleet over the years, which was sufficient to supply the logistics and ammunition of the expedition to the Taiping army.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the Taiping army to drop so many shells and bullets on the Indian peninsula, which has no industrial base!

Hong Tiancheng very generously accepted the surrender of the French Bourbons, because his goal was not to conquer India.

Hung even allowed the French Bourbons some autonomy to continue to lead the French army loyal to them to expand inland into the Indian peninsula.

If the Indian peninsula can be unified, Hong Tiancheng will not be stingy with rewards.

The French Bourbon family, who had been completely subdued by the Han Chinese, found such an opportunity to 'glorify their ancestors', and energetically reorganized their army and expanded into the interior of India.

Although the inland interior of the Indian Peninsula is far less prosperous than the coastal area of the Indian Peninsula, where the Taiping Army does not want it, it is still possible to be a grass king, and it is a big deal to become a vassal state of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and you can also enjoy glory and wealth!

As for competing with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for world domination, the French Bourbon royal family can't even think of it, Hong Tiancheng is a long-lived monster, and under his leadership, the Bourbon family will never turn over.
