"Damn! Damn damn Innocentsa, damn old thing! ”

Juan. José's roar rang out from the office of the prime minister's official residence in Madrid, shattering the windows. Looking at the office again, there are glass slags and porcelain shards on the ground, as well as some shredded pieces of paper that have been torn to shreds, scattered everywhere. Several ministers and generals of the Kingdom of Spain all stood there with their hands bowed and shoulders down, not daring to come out with a single one, nor daring to scold the furious Spanish prime minister together.

Because today the Prime Minister is scolding Pope Innocent XI. Daddy stopped shouting and became a goddamn old thing. This "son" is not filial! Also, does the Spanish prime minister want to break away from the Holy See and play Protestantism? That's unacceptable!

The influence of the Roman Church in Spain was too great, and Spain was not England, the Netherlands, Sweden, or North Germany. The Catholic Church is actually the majority shareholder of the country of Spain! During the centuries-long reconquest campaign, the Catholic Church in Rome established the Knights of Calatrava and the Knights of Santiago in order to recruit military monks willing to dedicate their lives to the cause of Catholicism in Castile, Aragon, and Portugal, which were small Catholic countries on the Iberian Peninsula, and recruited warriors from all over Europe to help the Spaniards fight.

It can be said that it was with the help of these two knightly orders and the knightly families from these two knightly orders that Spain and Portugal were able to win the reconquest movement and expel the Celestial Cult from the Iberian Peninsula.

These two knightly orders and the knightly families from these two knightly orders have become the largest feudal power in Spain by virtue of merit and loyalty. After the conquest of Granada, the King of Spain continued to serve as the leader of these two knightly orders.

In addition to these two orders, the Catholic Church also opened a large number of churches, monasteries and religious orders in Spain and in the colonies. It undertook the grassroots governance and national education of Spain and its colonies. There are also a large number of clergy who serve directly as middle and high-ranking officials, helping to govern the country.

In the colonies of the New World, the Catholic Church controlled more population and influence than the colonial officials sent by the Kingdom of Spain in the past—the officials sent by Spain to the New World were almost non-human, and the clergy sent by the Catholic Church sometimes did some personal work, after all, some of these people really believed in the Father.

Therefore, in the New World colonies, all kinds of human beings below the "white flag" preferred to listen to the priests rather than the colonial officials.

If Spain wants to carry out some kind of religious reform and kick the father of the Catholic Church away from himself, then the Spanish world empire will directly collapse, and even the native territory may not be saved, and Louis XIV will have to "serve his father to beg for unfilial piety"!

Spanish War Secretary Gaspard Tevez discovered Juan at this time. José was looking at him angrily, and hurriedly suggested: "Prime Minister, according to reliable information, Daddy Innocent XI has returned to Rome. I propose that you immediately give an order to the Doge of Milan to send troops to Rome to force Innocent XI to withdraw his order to revoke the papal meridian and to withdraw the verdict against our kingdom of Spain and the kings of our predecessors. ”

Louis XIV was still a particular man, and he did not detain the Pope's father in France, but sent Innocent XI back to Rome after the Pope personally crowned him as the "Emperor of the Eastern Empire". He also gave the Pope a large appearance fee, and promised to write a letter to persuade the Sultan of the Turkish Empire, advising him to be careful behind his back and not to rashly attack Austria.

But Juan. José was completely enraged, and he roared, "He said that my father, grandfather, great-grandfather, great-uncle and grandfather all went to hell!" They have paid so much for Catholicism, they deserve to be saints, how can they go to hell! ”

His anger was justified, and although Charles V, Philip II, Philip III, and Philip IV were all unsuccessful in the New World, they spared no effort to maintain the authority of the Catholic Church.

All of them are filial sons of God!

How could Innocent XI "make" them to hell? Is there still a conscience?

"Prime Minister interval," Pablo. Spinola Doria hurriedly defended the Pope, "That was Louis XIV who forced him to say this, and it was Louis XIV who deserved to go to hell!" ”

Juan. Jose's face was still pale: "Really? Was this really forced by Louis XIV? ”

"Of course!" Pablo. Spinola Doria nodded and said, "What else could it be?" ”

He was a bit of a vain in his words, because everyone knew Juan. Jose had committed so many sins against those ancestors that he was now suffering in hell. Papa Pope is just stating a fact!

"Damn Louie!" Juan. José changed his tune and began to curse Louis XIV.

He was originally a more "pro-French" person in the upper echelons of the Spanish kingdom - Louis was the son-in-law of King Philip IV of Spain, who was already in hell, and if Carlos II died without an heir, Louis XIV's wife would have the right to inherit, and Juan. José had a bad relationship with the Queen Mother of Spain, who was born in the Austrian branch of Habsburg, and naturally supported Louis's wife to succeed to the throne after the death of Carlos II. But Louis XIV went too far this time, and actually put Juan. José's ancestors were "sent" to hell.

This is definitely not to spare him!

Thinking of this, he suddenly said loudly to the military minister Gaspard Tevez: "Gaspard, go and prepare the ships immediately, mobilize the army, and I will go to Rome in person!" ”

He clenched his fists and said in a voice trembling with anger: "When I catch that old immortal, I will expel Louis from the church!" ”

Hearing his words, the Spanish ministers present did not know what to say. It's not the 11th or 12th century, and how many Catholic monarchs would be afraid of the papacy's breaking law?

Moreover, Louis did not use the law of breaking and excommunication against Spain this time, but only the Pope expounded a well-known fact. If José wanted reciprocal revenge, wouldn't it be better to capture the Pope's father and ask him to declare that Louis XIV's ancestors had also gone to hell?

Using the law of breaking the door is escalating the confrontation!

When Louis learns that he has been excommunicated, he will definitely send troops to Rome, and it will be Juan's turn at that time. Jose has been excommunicated!

And after that?

Juan. Is José going to give France another excommunication sanction?

And then again. Is it time to go to the Crusades?

It's almost the 18th century, and Spain and France are actually going to fight the Crusades, which is really a bit of a historical regression! Those Protestant nations are going to laugh off their big teeth this time!

However, this group of Spanish ministers did not dare to persuade Juan who was angry in person. Jose had to let him go first.

Rakshasa country, Ukraine, near the Izyum Line.

Just as Spain and France were about to start a religious war, a Tatar cavalry from the Crimean Peninsula, terrified by the local Ukrainian blondes, was escorting 3,000 "dwarfs on foot" on their way to the Rakshasas' newly built deer defense line, the Izyum Line.

The black soil of Ukraine they passed through was bleak, with large tracts of fertile land abandoned and most of the villages along the way left in ruins, inhabited only by a few armed fortresses.

However, the owners of these fortresses seemed to be very afraid of the Tatar cavalry, and when they saw them coming, they all closed their gates as if they were facing a great enemy.

"Murad replied, has there just been a war here? It's a shame that all this good land is deserted there! ”

Guanyin Bao, the commander of the "Dwarf Qing Army", also felt strange when he saw the scene in front of him, and now he finally couldn't help but ask the Khan of the Crimean Khanate beside him. Gray asked.

This Murad. He was a descendant of Genghis Khan's eldest son, Jochi, and after his ancestors converted to the Celestial Religion, he no longer gave prominence to the surname of Borjin, and he was less likely to speak Mongolian, but used Crimean Tatar and Chagatai as the official languages.

And Fuquan's henchman Guanyin Bao once learned Chagatai language, so he can communicate with Murad. Grei communicated, so the Ottoman Sultan let this Murad. Glay was responsible for entertaining and escorting Guanyin Bao and his dwarf Qing soldiers.

Guanyin Bao and Murad. Gray is a good person, so they quickly get along with each other.

Hearing Guanyin Bao's question, Murad. Glay replied with a wry smile: "The land of Ukraine has been fighting all the time, and there has never been a time for peace. ”

"Who fights with whom?" Guanyin Bao asked, "I seem to have heard that you have made peace with the Rakshasas?" ”

"That's right," Murad. Glay said, "Because of the great army of Kangxi Khan's westward expedition. However, peace means that there will be no big fights, but small-scale conflicts are inevitable. After all, the capture of the White Slave Girls of Ukraine and Southern Rakshasa has always been the biggest source of wealth for our Crimean Khanate, and there is also a huge demand on the Ottoman side!

In addition, there is a non-stop fight between Ukrainians, between Ukrainians and Rakshasas! ”

"They fight too? Why? ”

"Because. There are some Ukrainians who are pro-Turkish, there are Ukrainians who are pro-Polish, and there are Ukrainians who are pro-Rakshasa! "Murad. "I don't think they figured out who they should go with, did they?" ”

"So they're calling each other?" Guanyin Bao was a little speechless, and said in his heart: They are calling back and forth like this, aren't they cheaper for you?

"That's right!" Murad. Glay smiled, "Then it will be cheaper for our Crimean Tatars and Ottoman magnates Guanyin security guard replied, when you leave the rakshasa and return to the east, remember to pass by me again. When the time comes, I'll send you some of the prettiest white slave girls! What do you like, tell me. ”

"This, how can this work?" Guanyin Bao couldn't bear it, and folded his hands together, and recited "Amitabha, sins and sins", and then said to Murad. "Murad replied, is there anyone with a curvaceous body and a baby face?" ”

"Yes, yes!" Murad. Glay laughed, "Wrapped up in me!" ”

While the two were talking, a burst of gunfire suddenly came from the front.

Guanyin Bao was startled, and quickly looked at the strong one, and found that a wooden fortress appeared in front of him.

"Here we are," Murad. Glare held the reins, "The Izyum line has arrived, it is a wooden line built by the Rakshasas to defend us, consisting of trenches, pointed stakes, wooden walls, and wooden forts. If you don't use artillery, it's very difficult to break. Within the line of defense, there are the villages of the Rakshasas and Ukrainians, where the situation is relatively peaceful. But we can't go in, so that's all we have to do here. ”

The Izyum Line was used against the Turks and the Crimean Tatars, and of course Murad could not be allowed to defend against the Turks. Glai's Tatar cavalry approached.

However, the 3,000 Qing dwarf soldiers led by Guanyin Bao were allowed to enter the Izyum defense line, because at this time, it was not an ordinary Rakshasa local militia stationed in the wooden castle in front of them, but a brigade of nearly 5,000 pigtailed troops from Moscow!

The so-called braid army is the kind of braid army that has a big bald head, but has some hair on the back of the head, and is braided into a small braid!

The owners of this pigtail army, needless to say, knew that they must be Prince Foquansky and his wife, Princess Sofia.

After returning from France last time, Foquansky and Princess Sofia began to recruit and train a new army with the arms, money, and advisors provided by Louis XIV!

However, the Great Rakshasa has its own national conditions here, there are shooting armies, Cossacks, and aristocratic militias in the country, and they have long controlled military affairs, and the Tsarist court has little money, so it is not so easy to set up a new army in a big way.

As soon as the new army is done, the old army must not be unemployed?

Moreover, the new army will inevitably have enough food and wages, which makes the shooting army that does small business to earn living expenses embarrassed by the aristocratic militia that brings its own dry rations?

In order not to stimulate the original interest groups, the tsar and Princess Sofia simply bit to death this new army is the Qing army that helped Prince Foquansky fight Kangxi Khan!

This is the Qing Army! The military salary and equipment were all taken out by Prince Fuquansky, and the senior officers were all invited from France, that is, to recruit a little "hairy bear" from the Rakshasa as soldiers, and later Fuquan became the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and these hairy bear new troops followed to the Qing Dynasty to be the master of the "Great Qing Zhengxiong Banner", and would not occupy the number of lords of the Rakshasa country.

So you don't have to worry. Rakshasa's "old law" can't be easily changed!

In such a flicker, the "hairy bear nobles" below all believed it. Not only did they believe it, but some of the "hairy bear nobles" who had more children in their families and had no way to arrange them also sent their "remaining sons" to be braided soldiers under Foquansky, and also sought a future for the "Great Qing Bear Banner".

And since it is a Qing army, of course, you have to keep braided hair, wear a blue coat, and fight a thousand salutes.

Otherwise, Foquansky felt that his money was in vain, and the lords of the Rakshasa Kingdom would also suspect that they were going to be replaced.

Of course, there is nothing difficult about getting these rakshasas to shave their braids - they don't have the saying that their parents can't donate their hair and skin, so they can shave as long as they have enough silver coins.

So Prince Foquansky and Princess Sofia now have 10,000 pigtailed troops of the "Great Qing Bear Banner"!

5,000 of them are now led by Sofia, remaining in Moscow, guarding the dying Tsar, which is a whole brigade of new French troops, and there is also the training of French military advisers!

And the remaining 5,000 were led by Fuquansky to Izyum and wait for Guanyin Bao to join the division - Guanyin Bao brought 3,000 elites of the "Great Qing Zheng Dwarf Banner" to Fuquan this time, and these "Zheng Dwarf Banner Elites" also escorted a huge amount of money!

The 10 million taels that Yang Qilong gave to Fuquan after another transcontinental trade, it is now optimistically estimated that it can reach 300 million or 400 million livres, and after deducting all the costs, there will always be 200 million tens of millions of livres left. Louis XIV was going to take a whole number, that is, 200 million livres, and the remaining tens of millions would be distributed to Forquansky. However, it will not be delivered all at once, but will be shipped to Fuquan in batches.

Now Guanyin Bao is bringing a full 10 million miles of Fur, for the poor Rakshasa who is so poor, this 10 million Phillips is a huge amount of money!

Fuquan and Sofia are now wide!
