His Majesty the Holy Emperor Taizu and the current Emperor Tang Yezong were uncommittal about the military report on launching a new round of autumn campaigns, which is also an ambiguous attitude.

After the report of Marshal Chen Qimei of the Imperial Royal Army, he quietly retreated, and he already had a plan in his heart.

On the battlefield of the Western Front

If Britain, France and other countries work together to launch a full-scale counterattack, the expeditionary force of the Tang Empire will not be able to accompany them to go crazy and show their real strength to fight the German army.

If each has a ghost, then forget it!

Just as His Majesty the Holy Emperor Taizu once said;

Whether it is the first world war or the war in Europe, in the final analysis, it is the trouble of the Europeans.

The Tang Empire has all the benefits in hand anyway, and it can't be done to catch up, wishful thinking is not a business, and there is no need for that at all.

As for the European Southern Front

The expeditionary force of the Tang Empire can indeed concentrate its forces and launch a campaign on the southern front led by itself, with the aim of counterattacking the German-Austrian forces to the line of the Izo River.

Sharpening your muscles if necessary will increase the Empire's voice in the post-war landscape.

In order to win a hearty victory, the Royal Army will assemble more than 1,000 biplane fighters, more than 1,200 tanks and armored vehicles, 2,000 field artillery pieces of various types, and a large amount of ammunition on the southern front to launch a devastating and ferocious attack on the German-Austrian forces.

The Royal Army of the Tang Empire pursues the principle of "firepower first", and it is also the army with the largest number of armored troops in the world, the strongest armored assault capability, and has the most advanced fighter group cover.

Behind it is the Tang Empire's most complete industrial categories, unique production capacity, ranking at the top of the world's industrialized countries of the strong industrial production capacity.

The empire has the world's largest and most advanced automobile industry, precision machine tools, engines and agricultural machinery manufacturing, large-scale modern aviation industry, reflected in the army's equipment is the advanced semi-mechanized, half-mule and horse corps.

In accordance with the overall strategy of "defending the west and attacking the south", the military of the Tang Empire will formulate a transportation plan and a combat readiness plan for the next stage of military supplies exported to Europe, and actively mobilize troops to prepare for war.

On the main hall

Not long after the silence, Lord Hu Yongtang, the prime minister of wartime, stood up and said aloud after giving a salute;

"I respectfully invite Your Majesty the Holy Emperor Taizu, Your Majesty the Emperor to learn clearly

Chen Hu Yongtang played;

There was a proposal for the marriage of the Russian royal family, which was presented with the seal of the letter written by Tsar Nicholas II.

The other side hopes that the eldest princess Olga and the second princess Tatyana of the Tsarist Russian royal family will marry Tang Li Mingshen, the second son of the Tang Dynasty, and the third son Tang Li Minghe, respectively.

The matter was approved by the Holy Judgment and was already in the subsequent stages of the royal marriage.

At the beginning of May this year, the eldest princess Olga and the second princess Tatyana successfully arrived in New Jersey, the mainland of North America, and temporarily lived in the palace, accompanied by a team of 711 Russian nobles.

However, the situation changed dramatically in July, according to various secret sources;

The new Tsarist regime has secretly executed the former Tsar Nicholas II's family, the Tsar and his wife, the crown prince and the young princess. All of them were killed, and only two royal princesses were spared.

This incident has caused shocks among the European allies, especially Britain and France, which are most concerned and have expressed their strong condemnation and maintained a high degree of concern.

At this turbulent time, the marriage with the Tsarist Russian royal family is no longer just a political marriage, but involves an in-depth international geopolitical power competition.

For the sake of prudence, the cabinet agreed to play to His Majesty the Emperor and submit it to the Holy Emperor Taizu for decision.

Ministers are ignorant, beg for the Holy Judge! ”

This matter is very sensitive because it involves royal marriages, and it is not an ordinary national political matter, so the cabinet ministers do not dare to be arbitrary, and they specially ask for a royal decision.

Tang Yezong was also unsure of the proportions, because it was the Holy Emperor Taizu who made the decision at that time.

Therefore, he stood up from the throne, turned to the Holy Emperor Taizu at the head and bowed respectfully, and said;

"Grandpa Holy Emperor, I think that the water here is too deep, and the area involved is too wide.

After wandering for a long time, there is almost no decision.

It is better to ask the Holy Emperor's grandfather to survey the maze, so as not to behave in a daze and let others see the jokes. ”

Richard nodded lightly, raised his hand with a gentle expression and motioned for Tang Yezong to sit down, and said;

"The emperor is the king of a country, no need to be polite, just sit down and talk.

Over the years, the emperor has been diligent in governing the government, coping with it well, and has made the Tang Dynasty more and more prosperous, and I can't help but feel relieved!

It's just a matter of marriage

Cheng will change the situation in Eurasia, fall into the control of our Tang Empire, and increasingly establish the status of the world's top powers.

If it doesn't work, this place is thousands of miles away from the empire's homeland, and it will not hurt the country's foundation and not move the country's foundation, it is just an idle move.

At that time, England had repeatedly received foreign exiled royal princes, and it also thought the same way, which can be used as a reference template.

Back in the days when Napoleon III was not born, he was exiled in England in his youth and middle age, but once he became the center of power in Europe, which brought many benefits.

The marriage of two Russian princesses can be dealt with in the same way.

If the emperor is reluctant to let the emperor's second son, Tang Li Mingshen, take out the marriage, he can also choose one of the princes from the concubine, which is not a big deal.

To know

With the vast blessings and huge population of the Tsarist Russian Empire, it occupies an important position in the history of Europe in modern times.

This royal marriage gave the Tang Empire a justifiable legal basis to meddle in the future domestic political situation of Tsarist Russia, and then affect the future political trend of the European continent.

As far as the interior of the empire is concerned

It will take decades to digest the fruits of this recent stage of large-scale colonial expansion, and there is no real need for colonial expansion in the direction of Tsarist Russia.

However, this will not affect the advance layout of the Tang Empire, guide the development of the situation in Europe and Northeast Asia, and evolve in a direction more conducive to the empire.

In Northeast Asia alone

Since the Russo-Japanese War, Fuso has been dormant for more than ten years with huge post-war debts, concentrating on polishing its military and political strength, secretly hiding its ambitious expansion ambitions, and intending to look north to China.

Zhu Aiqing knows that the Fusang people are ambitious and insatiable, and they are a white-eyed wolf who is not familiar with it.

Now tame under the suppression of the Empire, in fact, this son has a backbone, and during World War I, he forcibly invaded the Jiaodong Peninsula despite the opposition of the Empire.

This has already been able to explain a lot of problems, and the "Tanaka Concert" has clearly shown that the Japanese people are ambitious and have no choice but to take precautions.

The current civil strife in Tsarist Russia is an excellent opportunity.

Guiding the greedy and unbridled ambitions of the Japanese people to the north and entering the hinterland of Tsarist Russia with swords and soldiers is a good strategy for "leading the water of disaster to the north".

As long as the righteous name of the Tsarist Russian royal family is in hand, with the economic strength and strong military strength of the empire, and unites the royalist White Russia and the Japanese side, the vast interior of Tsarist Russia cannot be impossible.

If you succeed, you will make further progress, and if you lose, it will not hurt the country, so why not?

With Britain, France, Italy, and other world powers all hating the new regime in Tsarist Russia, and with the participation of conservative forces in Tang, Japan, and other countries, and within Tsarist Russia, the future split within Tsarist Russia is already foreseeable.

Holding this kite string is beneficial and harmless to the geostrategic significance of the Empire.

However, this matter should not be urgent, and it is necessary for Britain, France, Japan and other countries to come to the door, and then slowly try to do it.

Tsarist Russia, burdened with huge international debts, turned its face and did not recognize people, and it was the European powers that were anxious, not us, so they could have held their chips and watched the fire from across the strait, allowing the wind and waves to surge elsewhere.

At this stage, it should be properly arranged to grasp the maximum number of chips at the minimum cost.

We can wait for the European powers to come to the door to ask for the price, the time is on our side, and the advantage is also on our side. ”

After a penetrating analysis, Tang Yezong and a group of military and political ministers were convinced and bowed down.

What is an old fox called?

Oh...... Phew, that's wrong.

This is called "there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure".

Seeing the chaotic international power competition, His Majesty the Holy Emperor Taizu gently pulled out a thread and clarified the dazzling internal situation in Tsarist Russia.

Now Tsar Nicholas I and the rest of his family have all died, and the de jure successors are only the eldest princess Olga and the second princess Tatyana of the Tsarist Russian royal family, and now they are about to marry the Tang royal family.

No matter which White Russian royalist armed force in Tsarist Russia raises the banner of rebellion, one of these two royal princesses of Tsarist Russia must be honored, otherwise there will be no righteous name.

The centuries-old rule of the Romanov Dynasty in Tsarist Russia was deep-rooted, and if it had the name of righteousness, it was not called a rebel, but a hereditary imperial system with pure blood.

The Romanov dynasty of Tsarist Russia has a history of many female tsars, and female monarchs are not excluded, but are enthusiastically supported by the whole country.

It is with such a heavyweight bargaining chip, this kite line in hand, that the Tang Empire can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and watch the ebb and flow of the tide on the Eurasian continent.

There is no need to rush now, because the most important international affairs at the moment is to defeat the German-Austrian military alliance and win this vital war.

Only after the victory in the First World War, when the secondary contradiction rose to the main contradiction, did the great powers of the world have the energy and excess ability to begin to solve the problem of Tsarist Russia.

Then, at the post-war spoils distribution conference, even if Britain and France and other countries deliberately excluded and suppressed Tang and denied Tang's important contribution and influence in the First World War, they had to consider the serious consequences arising from this.

If Britain and France insist on going their own way, then the two Russian princesses who married into the Tang royal family can live in North America and live a quiet and peaceful life.

The armed interference of many countries in the internal affairs of Tsarist Russia, anyway, the Tang Empire will not participate, so you can just go and toss around.

The numerous White Russian armed forces in Tsarist Russia went their own way, like a plate of scattered sand, and neither side of the Tsarist rebels could be recognized by the other armed forces.

History will repeat itself as a scene of total defeat, and the new Russia, which has risen in Eastern Europe, will be like a sharp blade hanging over the heads of the European powers, and will eventually become their big problem.

All of this has nothing to do with the Tang Empire.

Thousands of miles away from the vast Pacific Ocean, even if the new Russia has a growing threat, it is also a problem for the Europeans, and it has nothing to do with the Tang Empire, let alone a dime to lose.

To be able to figure out all these gains and losses in an instant is impossible without a far-reaching international strategic vision that is at the top of the world.

After clicking through this layer of window paper, Tang Yezong and the ministers of military and political affairs nodded frequently, and they were really impressed in their hearts.

It really has to be His Majesty the Holy Emperor Taizu, who is still so wise and wise, living in the temple and making high decisions, and seeing the future.

In particular, if you count the stinky virtue temple of the greedy and excessive life to the bones, and are sure that it will be a big drain on the vast northern territory of Tsarist Russia, you can't help but take action no matter what. (End of chapter)
