"What a stupid fellow. www.biquge.info If the nobility and elite of this country are at this level, then the country is really hopeless. And so, after convincing Prince Bisharo, Victoria lay lazily in her sofa seat.

It's ridiculous to think about it, such a guy, such an army, to think that he can defeat the most powerful and terrible emperor in the world, Caesar and the ruler. What was going on in his head?

It's funny.

But it doesn't matter, at least for Victoria, it's good to use such a guy to weaken the Hereford family. As for whether this guy will be purged because he is an enemy of the Hereford family and William von Hereford. Victoria wouldn't care about that kind of thing.

If this scum dies, it dies. There is no need to worry at all, and there will be absolutely no heartache.

It was in this context that the Mughal Empire declared war on the Mughal Empire on the grounds that it had harmed the commercial interests of the Mughal Empire. More than 200,000 coalition troops, advancing in the direction of Delhi.

The entire Indy was shaken in an instant. Especially when the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb carelessly sent an army to fight these rebels, only to be easily defeated. The whole Indy boiled in an instant.

The Maratha Federation in the south moved in the shortest possible time, and the Lord of Mysore also formed an alliance with the Marathas in the shortest possible time. In addition to this, in the vital state of Punjab, the Sikh believers are also in a state of instability. In various other regions, the governors loyal to the Mughals were somewhat overwhelmed. And the princely princes who are already dissatisfied with the Mughal Empire, and the satraps who want to watch the empire destroy and tear off a piece of meat from the ruins of the empire. They also began to increase their strength with ill intentions.

The entire Governor's House of West Bengal has fallen. The empire lost nearly forty percent of its vast territory in an instant—fortunately, the most important area of Delhi, the Ganges valley, was still under the control of the empire, and the empire could pull hundreds of thousands, if not more, of troops at any time. Emperor Aurangzeb still regarded the rebellion as just a disease of scabies. Although it will make people feel uncomfortable, it will not cause too much harm to the empire. More importantly, it does not pose too much of a threat to his rule.

At least until he is defeated by his enemies, he will continue to hold on to this idea.

That's how the local war broke out in Indy.

Although Indy is a relatively closed continent, there are still connections with the outside world, in the rainforests of the east, where monkeys live, and in the west, the Zoroastrian Empire, which is extremely powerful. And then there's a more important point, and that's the Spice Islands.

Because there was almost no connection between the land and the outside world, the Indy's navigation was unexpectedly developed, and its navigation route could reach the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf to the west, eventually stopping at the port of Nicoleia, and to the east to reach the legendary Dragon's Passage. and the Spice Islands.

It was also during the hundreds of years that the Crescent Cult ruled Indi, and with the exchange of maritime trade, the beliefs of the Crescent Sect were spread to all parts of the Spice Islands, so that now, the guys who believe in the Crescent Sect have become the main people of the Spice Islands.

Luckily, these guys have very low combat power, so even when the Frisians rule the area, they can be easily controlled.

It's just that these guys are also the first in the world in terms of laziness, and even if they are beaten and used with whips or even bayonets against these guys, it is difficult for these bastards to learn what it means to be industrious.

William has published a scholarly book on this point. This is highlighted. Civilizations can only be found in areas where the seasons are distinct. Because in such a place people can meet the conditions of farming, and at the same time, people need to store food for the winter. So the people who live in these areas are the most industrious.

Further south, the rainforests are the laziest and unenterprising because they have enough light and water all year round, so that crops grown in the wild can be directly used by the people who live there. Because these bastards can live by just looking at the sky every day and waiting for the coconuts on the trees to fall. There is no need to think about livelihoods at all.

As for the north, there is no way to farm because of the climate. The people there had to live on herds, and even further north, in the more savage and inhospitable areas, people had to live by fishing and hunting. It was barely able to feed too many people, and it was difficult to store enough food to build a more advanced form of government or develop a higher civilization.

This form of organization is very poor in its ability to resist disasters, and a large number of nomadic or fishing and hunting residents will die when there is a disturbance. In this case, whenever the earth's climate changes, there is a worldwide climate cooling, which is the so-called Xiaoice Age, nomads and fishermen will fall into the dilemma of not having enough food in the shortest possible time.

This situation will cause them to kill each other for food. And the result of such cannibalism was the most powerful, warlike, and cunning nomadic khans, or chieftains of fishing and hunting tribes, who united them. Then they launched an attack to the south.

A little review of the information will lead to conclusions. Some of the most famous nomadic activities in Eurasia, the era when nomads were most active, was also the coldest climate.

In William's previous life, the great migration of barbarians that led to the fall of the Roman Empire, as well as the invasion of the Huns, led to the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Mongol era, which destroyed countless civilized countries, and the same was true of the Liukou and Manchurian invasions that eventually destroyed the Ming Dynasty. The rise of Sweden and Finland during the Thirty Years' War was still in this era.

Of course, at the moment, there are not too many guys who support William's conclusion. But William believes that as technology continues to evolve, these guys will eventually understand whose hands the truth is.

"Only, then, in the coming era, there will be no such thing as nomadic invasion again. William thought to himself.

That is, at the same time that Victoria led the turmoil in Indy and launched an attack on the Mughal Empire, William was also working hard to move forward towards his ideals.

After the Cheka agents returned with a large number of nomadic scout cavalry, especially when a group of Praetorian cavalry took great risks and crossed the Caucasus Mountains to bring news of his father, William had grasped the full thread of the war.

Under William's guidance and request, his father, Prince Otto, had opened up the second and third battlefields. But the situation does not look good at the moment.

In the Black Sea, it is still the dark elves who dominate the sea. At the same time, the Crimean peninsula is very difficult to attack because of the natural danger of the Perekop Isthmus.

The same is true in the Caucasus Mountains. The Centaur Tartariya Khanate was unable to break through here, and now the Gothic Empire, which has been replaced by the Hereford family, is much better, but the extent of improvement is still limited.

With these two lines of defense, it was completely difficult for the Hereford family to wage war against the Ottoman Empire in the south and win.

This time, Prince Otto's information to William was just that. In addition, there is another point, that is, whether the ironclad ships in the Black Sea shipyard can be used.

Although not a naval expert, Prince Otto had a clear idea. If the ironclad ship can really be put into battle, then in the Black Sea, the sea dominance of the dark elves will be greatly reduced. At that time, you will be able to cross the sea and force your way across the sea, and you will not need to attack the Perekop Isthmus. After fully mastering the Black Sea, it could even further threaten Istanbul, the capital of the Ottoman Empire. In such a situation, only the most stupid fool would dare to take out all his army and pursue interests thousands of kilometers away, regardless of the question of the great threat to his capital.

In this way, William's security problem is solved. He could even further demand, or even force, the Ottoman Empire to cede more benefits.

"Really, it's a good way, it's just ......" Of course, William knew that this move of his father, Prince Otto, was similar to besieging Wei to save Zhao, and the strategy of attacking the place where the enemy must be saved was very clever. It's much better than trying to build up an army here now.

Merely.

"Do you really want to bring the ironclad ship into the world in advance?" William was still a little unsure about this.

He had intended to use it against the Britons.

The reason why a secret weapon is a secret weapon is that the other party will be surprised, the other party will not have time to prepare, and the other party will not know how to deal with it at all. In this case, the empire will be able to win.

And once the secrecy is lost, then the secret weapon is not a secret weapon. Given the technological and industrial prowess of the Britons, William had reason to believe that soon after he launched the ironclad, the Britons would learn and experiment. They either asked the Hereford family to share, or sent spies. At the same time, their own scientists and engineers will also work hard to experiment.

Under these circumstances, it must not be too difficult for the Britons to master, catch up, or even surpass the Hereford family, and continue to maintain their position as the most powerful naval state.

If William didn't want to be an enemy of Briton, he was content to be under Briton, as a very powerful, very great, but not the first position of the empire, then of course he could. After annexing the entire Ottoman Empire, the Hereford family will be invincible. Even the Britons would never go to war with such a large and powerful empire so easily.

But, William just didn't want to.

The difference between second place and last place is very different for others, but for Willian there is no difference. If not the first place, then everything is meaningless. Therefore, no matter how big the difficulties are now, he will never give up and use the ironclad ship.
