Chapter 105: Instead
Li Liguo, who besieged Moscow, did not storm this fortified city full of tsarist loyalty, and before the battle with the main Russian force, the troops under Li Liguo's command were almost squandered, and the current peasant rebel army can still maintain the number of 100,000 people, but the combat effectiveness is not as good as the regular army of the previous division!
However, Li Liguo's weakness is clear to himself, but outsiders are not clear, whether it is the great powers or the nobles and commoners of the Russian Empire, all they see is the peasant army led by the invincible Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin attacking cities and plundering land everywhere, all they see is that the size of the peasant rebel army is constantly expanding, and almost as many people die can be replenished in time!
Therefore, the prestige of the peasant rebel army was very strong, not to mention the various local governments of the Russian Empire, and even the European powers did not dare to rashly lead troops into it at this time, even if the legions on the border of the Russian Empire had been turned into an empty shell due to a large number of transfers......
But the absence of an invasion does not mean that those powers will not prepare for war, and the mobilization of the Ottoman Empire, which is greatly damaged, may have to wait a few years, but the Kingdom of Prussia, the Kingdom of Poland, the Kingdom of Sweden, the Kingdom of Austria, and other European powers not far from the Russian Empire, are all forming invasion armies one by one!
In private, the envoys kept coming and going, hoping that in the next partition of the Russian Empire, they would divide their interests and avoid conflicts between them!
Li Liguo was busy relying on the great prestige of his victory, sending a large number of rebel armies to the rest of the Russian hinterland, expanding his ranks along the way and occupying towns and cities, and preaching the legitimacy of the Russian-Cossack Empire!
Russia is a fighting nation, and what the fighting nation values most is not orthodoxy and legality, but force!
Of course, the force here is not the force of a foreign invader, it must be a national one!
Many of the tsars of the Russian Empire were cruel tyrants, using violent means to gain power and actively expand externally!
Looking at the history of the Russian Empire, it is an expansionist empire, and the huge empire built by such a long war, one can imagine how warlike the citizens of the Russian Empire were!
The warlike populace naturally worships a powerful leader!
In the Russian Empire, the oppression of civilians is a small problem, corruption or something, as long as you are strong enough, you can oppress civilians!
As for the way to show strength, it is naturally to suppress uprisings and foreign wars!
Isn't it the embodiment of the Russian Empire's worship of the strong that still retains the primitive and backward serfdom that ignores human rights, but can still be called one of the great powers of Europe?
For the Russians, as long as they are strong enough, even if it is a little hard, they are appointed......
And Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, who rose strongly, was so close to the people and so powerful, he naturally won great support from the Russian people!
Catherine II in the city of Moscow was surrounded by people, and compared to Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, who was grabbing territory everywhere, he was simply weak!
If it weren't for the fact that many aristocratic forces were still supporting Catherine II, Li Liguo would have unified the Russian Empire long ago!
Of course, it's not far off!
The peasant rebel army, which was expanding its territory everywhere and doubling in number, was pulled back by Li Liguo and carried out a crowd offensive against Moscow City for more than a month!
Li Liguo captured a large number of artillery, with sufficient firepower, and a large amount of gunpowder for blasting and profligacy, coupled with a steady stream of cheap cannon fodder, a lonely city of Moscow, which can resist for a month is worthy of Tsar Catherine II......
In fact, the city of Moscow was not broken by Li Liguo in the end, but they opened the city gates themselves!
And Catherine II died violently after a meal!
Ended up with her husband......
The main thing is that Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin's power is getting bigger and bigger, and the expansion within the Russian Empire is becoming more and more smooth, coupled with Li Liguo's promise to those big nobles to retain their rights, so the entire territory of the Russian Empire and the city of Moscow completely gave up resistance!
Of course, this renunciation came at a cost, that is, Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin could inherit the position of Tsar, but the original system of the Russian Empire must be preserved, whether it was serfdom or oppression of the people, it could not be outlawed!
Li Liguo agreed very easily, because he didn't want to stay in the Russian Empire for a long time, he just wanted to be called the Tsar, and then alleviate the domestic contradictions as quickly as possible, organize a large army, and go to fight the world, as for whether the Russian Empire will collapse due to perennial wars, economy, people's livelihood and politics or something, that is not a question at all!
He just needs the Russian Empire to hold out until he completes his mission and leaves, and after he leaves, he will be flooded!
Under the compromise between Li Liguo and the Russian aristocracy, peace was restored to the Russian Empire as quickly as possible, the unrecognized name of the Russian-Cossack Empire was also banned, and Li Liguo succeeded to become the Tsar of the Russian Empire in accordance with the traditions of the Russian Empire!
Yes, Li Liguo became a new generation of tsars of the Russian Empire, and soon formed an alliance of friendship and mutual assistance with the most powerful aristocratic forces in the Russian Empire......
The only ones who really benefited were those who joined Li Liguo's rebel army!
The peasant rebel army, which swelled to 200,000 people, was not disbanded by Li Liguo, but these people were rotated by Li Liguo to participate in the siege of Moscow, and they were all soldiers who had seen blood!
Li Liguo selected the elite from it to form the Tsarist Guard, the former Tsarist Guard was crippled and abolished when defending the city of Moscow, which is also the reason why Catherine II was poisoned, and her cronies' army has been consumed by Li Liguo......
The European powers were dumbfounded by the changes in the Russian Empire, and they couldn't imagine how Li Liguo, who was born in mud, could have so shamelessly abandoned the working people and threw himself into the hands of the aristocratic forces, didn't that Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin know that after he broke away from the people, even if he inherited the tsar, he would gradually lose his advantage in the future palace battles!
It will only take a few years for the people to forget the bravery of Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, and the nobles will attack this mud leg who has lost the support of the people! (To be continued.) Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info)
