In this way, the Hereford family has a very well-behaved and very ferocious hunting dog. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 At the same time, the Hereford family, also with William's efforts, began a series of plans against the East and against the Ottoman Empire.

The first is the Cossack plan. William had already announced that he had ordered the leaders of all the nomadic tribes under his control to bring their offspring to Novgorod. Of course, the future could be Moscow, or the newly built St. Petersburg. Which city is it needs William to think about what kind of national policies and strategies should be implemented.

The heirs of these young nomadic tribes were the leaders of the first Cossacks in William's predestination. These men were to study at the Novgorod Military Academy, to the allegiance of the Hereford family, to the great King William, and to all kinds of strategy and tactics. At the same time, William also systematically trained the nearly 20,000 nomadic cavalry of the Hereford family's army.

Based on the separate steppe cavalry brigade. In two years' time, William will train the modern cavalry, who is familiar with modern technology, has the skill of lining up and shooting, and the queue charging technology of modern cavalry, and expands the cavalry brigade to two, and even forms a cavalry division.

Of course, the formation of a cavalry division was William's limit for the Cossacks. In the future, the Cossacks would form more cavalry divisions, even hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of Cossack cavalry, under the control of the Hereford family, to fight for the good of the empire. But the Cossacks would not have appeared too senior generals, as well as marshals. They will be arranged into corps, army groups and army groups as vassals and auxiliary combat units. to facilitate the control of the Hereford family.

While manipulating and training his nomadic cavalry and tribes with great fanfare. William's envoys were still carrying large pockets of imperial gold, iron tools made of fine iron, scimitars and cuirasses, and marched towards the Cuman and Kipchak steppes. There William was going to collect more cavalry, more tribes, and strengthen the power of his Cossack cavalry. At the same time, he was to build Gothic settlements in key areas of the steppe. Fortresses, fortresses as well as defensive lines. He wanted to change the laissez-faire strategy of the Tartarya Khanate and turn it into a bridgehead for the southward attack on the Caucasus.

In the process of the collapse of the Tartarian Khanate, this mountain region has been completely controlled and occupied by the dark elves of the south. It has become another bridgehead for the dark elves to covet the northern human world.

William is already one step behind them, so he must catch up as fast as possible in order to win the final victory in this war against the enemy.

In addition to the training of the Cossacks, as well as the recruitment of the cavalry of the Cumans, Kipchak steppes. At the same time, a team of geologists, prospectors, and colonial adventurers was sent out beyond the savannah. William also did two things, the first was to send an envoy to Istanbul.

Although the vast majority of people thought that negotiating with the Fatimid woman Sudan was seeking the skin of the tiger, William felt that how could he know the outcome without talking? More importantly, William hoped that he could reach a certain tacit understanding with this Sudan. The Hereford family did not want to spend hundreds of years in the endless and unpaid Russo-Turkish war, as William had done in his previous life.

William had little interest in the land, which was rich but full of dark elves and Turks, Levantines, and Berbers. If the area is too large, it will take too much force to control. This time it involved too much energy from the Hereford family. On the other hand, colonizing the vast and sparsely populated New World, or attacking the Indy, which is easy to control and has weak people, is a really profitable deal.

That's it, William expects to be able to fight in this coming, possibly third, major border war. Or in the war of the First Hereford-Ottoman War, misleading the Fatimid woman Sudan. Hopefully I will be able to enter some wrong judgments into her.

At the same time, William hopes to establish a tacit relationship with Istanbul. The relationship between the two parties is maintained in terms of conflict and competition, and it is a relationship that can be adjusted and improved at any time. It's not your mortal enemy. In this way, the Hereford family can be won a more flexible diplomatic environment and diplomatic means.

In addition to this, William's preparations for war were a series of negotiations and consultations with the Lombards, with the Pope and with the Holy See.

Although the Lombards were very poor in land warfare, they were able to play a lot of roles in naval warfare. In the war against the Ottomans, absolutely inseparable from the assistance of the Lombard navy. Especially when the Hereford family's own naval forces are not yet sufficient.

Although it is said that the Hereford family has completed its hegemony in the Polotsk Sea, it has also gained a little presence in the North Sea region. But it was still difficult for the Imperial Navy to enter the Mediterranean to fight. Especially when the Herriford family's navy couldn't find even a slightly more stable anchorage.

William also believed that his imminent war with the Ottoman Empire would also greatly please and inspire the Lombards. These guys, like the hill peoples of the Carpathians, have a great hatred and fear of the dark elves. If before, their attitude towards the Bretons was a commercial competitor, then for the Ottomans, they were enemies.

Both religiously and commercially. Whether it's their own security, or the issue of maritime trade in the Azure Sea, and the ownership of the islands in the Azure Sea, the Lombards have a lot to talk about and want to "discuss" with the Dark Elves.

Originally, the helper they "discussed" and was able to provide them with army support, it was the great Emperor Kalman IV. In Kalman IV, when the Swabian family was mired in sectarian warfare and could not take care of the East, they had to turn to another great being who could help them through the storm and help them fight against the Dark Elves.

And for now, it seems that in the entire human world, except for William and the Hereford family, who have this power and this motivation, they cannot find a second choice.

In this case, it is not surprising that the Carpathians and Lombards moved closer to the Herefords. At the same time, in the case that his own war also relied on the Hereford family and the Lombard people's gold coin willingness, for the latter two, a series of small actions carried out by himself, Kalman IV could only choose to turn a blind eye and pretend not to see.

In this way, with the efforts of William, and with the war between the Empire and the Britons not yet over, a new alliance against the Ottoman Empire in the south was quietly being formed. Even many Lombards and Carpathian nobles began to think about the possibility that after the death of Emperor Kalman IV, they could form a new co-confederation with the Hereford family, and dedicate the crown of the two kingdoms of Lombard and Carpathia to William, the king who was in the limelight.

After receiving the envoys of the two countries, and hearing them talk about the subject, William himself was somewhat moved. If he can really incorporate the above two countries into his sphere of influence, then the Hereford family's anchorage in the blue sea will be in his hands as a matter of course. The power of the family will also be greatly improved. But is it......

It's just that if you do this, it will definitely affect your relationship with the Swabian family. Moreover, having lost the support of these two countries, the Swabians could absolutely no longer serve as emperors. The Hereford family, which was already very conspicuous, would truly become the biggest threat to the Britons, their biggest competitors, and the targets of their suppression. ”

William's concerns were very necessary. Although now, the relationship between the Hereford family and the Briton Kingdom has cooled. But on the surface, at least, the two sides remain allies and partners. Sharing Briton's commercial market, resources, and the importation of industrial machinery, technology, and even engineers from Britton was also one of the key elements in the Hereford family's rise in such a short period of time.

If there is a break with the Britons, it will not be good news for the economic, industrial, financial and technological development of the Hereford family. In this case, the Hereford family will encounter a series of difficulties. So......

After careful consideration, William finally made the decision to tactfully reject the good intentions of the Lombards and the Carpathian kingdom. For the time being, he could not accept and control these two countries. However, this does not mean that the two sides cannot continue to cooperate. Nor does it mean that the three nations cannot form an alliance, an alliance against the Dark Elves......

That is, while the Hereford family is desperately arranging and spending money like flowing water to arrange a strategy against the dark elves, the dark elves are also planning a new round of invasion wars.

In other words, the Dark Elves planned the invasion war before the Hereford family. The previous assassination plot against Sarida Khan was part of the Dark Elves' plan. And the tactic of assassinating important people of the enemy to achieve their own goals is also the specialty of the dark elves.

In addition to assassinating Sarida Khan, controlling several of Sarida Khan's sons and indirectly controlling the remnants of the centaurs, the Dark Elves wielded gold coins, scimitars, and armor of all kinds, and hired nomadic thugs in the Cuman-Kipchak steppe. At the same time, a powerful expeditionary force is being prepared and formed.

The Fatimid woman Sudan was ready to take Ruthenia, the Cuman-Kipchak steppe, the Pyrm kingdom and other places in a new round of war. In other words, she wanted to annex all the territories that originally belonged to the Tartarya Khanate. Really open up a new battlefield in the East, against the human world.
