425 The situation of the parties

In 1678, when the Ottoman Turkish Empire's territory and vassal rule in Europe were completely collapsed by the Taiping army, and hundreds of thousands of main forces were destroyed, great changes also occurred in European countries.

After the Taiping army of ten divisions swept through the European part of the Ottoman Turkish Empire and won a decisive battle with the main force of more than 100,000 Ottoman Turkish Empires, only three divisions remained, which gave the anti-Han alliance hope again.

Of course, this hope is not to counterattack the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and overthrow Hong Tiancheng, the heads of the anti-Han alliances who have seen the power of Hanyang's rifles know very well that even if the Taiping Army only has three divisions, it is not something they can break through now.

The three divisions of the Taiping Army were naturally not enough to attack the city, but it was more than enough to defend the homeland.

After all, in a field battle, the Taiping army equipped with Hanyang-made rifles could completely fight ten in one fight, and now the anti-Han alliance could not take out ten times the strength of the army, and those militias and integrated guerrillas who could only shoot could not fight against the Taiping army.

The anti-Han alliance was glad that they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After the Taiping army swept away the Ottoman Turkish Empire's large army on the European continent, Hong Tiancheng returned to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom with the remaining three main divisions, and annexed the collapsed Cossack United Emirate lands to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom itself.

Without the control of that system hero, the Cossack formed army was also destroyed, and the Cossack United Emirate naturally did not need to exist.

It wasn't until the moment when the Taiping army made a move against the Cossack United Emirate that the remaining Cossack leaders woke up to the fact that they were just treated as a useful knife by Hong Tiancheng, and when the knife broke, the master would throw it away in disgust.

Interestingly, when the Taiping army annexed the territory of the Cossack United Emirate, it also fought a battle with a small number of troops of the Crimean Khanate, and the result is self-evident, the Crimean Khanate withdrew from the territory of the Cossack United Emirate with its tail between its legs after the war......

At this point, Hong Tiancheng expanded the border of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to the Zaporozhye region, and carried out a bloody suppression of the unruly Cossack fighters in this area.

Compared to the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the anti-Han alliance, which had artillery and a large number of muskets, the Cossacks were as vulnerable as children in front of the Taiping army, and the feared Cossack cavalry could not even break through the rifle line of the Taiping army......

Of course, this also had a lot to do with the fact that the Cossacks suffered a lot of losses in their forces and the scarcity of cavalry.

Hong Tiancheng's occupation of the Cossack United Emirate was just a matter of cleaning up the mess.

After the annexation of the United Cossack Emirates, the whole of Eastern Europe and Northern Europe was completely divided between the Russian Empire and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and Central Europe became a strategic buffer zone between the anti-Han League and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Although the German Republic of Central Europe has completed the unification, after the double slaughter of the Taiping Army and the Ottoman Turks, Central Europe has withered and is full of ruins......

The German Republic was not even comparable to the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Kingdom of Belgium, and after the joint intervention of these two countries, it was necessary to cede some territories on the Rhine to the two countries, so that Central Europe was saved from war.

In the same way, the Kingdom of Denmark, which had not lost its strength due to the surrender of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, also scraped a layer of flesh from the German Republic and expanded its border to the Hamburg area.

However, even though the German Republic adopted a policy of compromise in the face of all three countries, it was still able to reap the territorial rewards of the war.

It can be said that the legacy of the Holy Roman Empire, once the hegemon of Central Europe, was divided between the German Republic, the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Kingdom of Belgium, of which the German Republic occupied eighty percent of the territory, and the Kingdom of the Netherlands and Belgium only occupied one percent each......

The German Republic extended its borders all the way to Vienna, Austria, and even invaded Hungary, where the population was almost slaughtered, and the territory expanded like an armed march......

It was for this reason that the German Republic reached a territory-for-peace agreement with the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Kingdom of Belgium, and even the Kingdom of Denmark.

However, although the German Republic occupied a large number of lands, the vast majority of them were slaughtered by the Ottoman Turkish Empire, the population was very sparse, and many people who believed in Allah were left, and the productive forces were destroyed.

However, the lands ceded to the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Kingdom of Belgium were less affected by the war, and the population did not decrease much compared to before the war.

In addition to the great territorial changes in Central Europe, the Kingdom of Italy can be said to be in high spirits, not only did they actually break away from the control of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but also unified the entire Italian peninsula, and even Sicily agreed to merge with the Kingdom of Italy under the strong influence of the Kingdom of Italy!

The Kingdom of Italy took over all the territory left by the Taipings, expanding its territory to Venice in the north and the French border in the west......

Of course, this small failure did not prevent the Italian royal family from inscribed its great achievements in the history books.

In the Kingdom of France, after the Taiping army retreated from the Ottoman Turkish Empire, the situation of the three kingdoms collapsed rapidly, and the French native forces led by Lin Dengwan could not confront the anti-Han alliance at all, he only used the deterrent power of the Taiping army to bite the anti-Han alliance and dare not start a civil war under the bayonets of the Taiping army.

But when the Taiping Army left, everything became different, and Lin Dengwan, who changed his name and surname, had extremely rich experience at the political level, so how could he not see his dangerous situation?

The French liberals, with the support of the British, and the French Bourbons, with the support of the Kingdom of Spain, could not have lost the French Civil War without the intervention of the Taiping army in any case, and they would even have exercised restraint because of the anti-Han alliance.

But what is Lindenvan?

In the eyes of the high-level of the Anti-Han League, Lin Dengwan is just a careerist with a little ability and good luck, relying on the integration of the French angry youth and guerrillas, taking advantage of the withdrawal of the Taiping army, occupying a large number of ownerless cities.

Lin Dengwan, who knew how many pounds and taels he had, was very obedient and found a backer for himself.

There were only two people he took refuge with, one liberal and the other Bourbon, and in the case of choosing one of the two, Linden Wan chose to land on the ship of the British.
