- The days passed by, and the time passed by minute by second.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Hongyu spent a month of leisure time in Egypt, and then he took his wives and concubines on his return journey.
Yes, he is going back to America.
After all, the American continent is his foundation. As long as he manages the American continent well, he will have no worries.
??Besides, although Zhao Hongyu did not visit too many countries during this European trip, Zhao Hongyu's basic purpose has been achieved.
Therefore, there is no need for him to continue doing nothing here.
The construction of supermarkets and concessions in Egypt is already underway.
It will take at least a year for everything here to start functioning.
Therefore, there is not much need for him to stay.
However, he still left 800 genetic warriors behind, and they will move in when the construction of the concession is almost ready.
This is also to support Abdallah and ensure his own interests in the Egyptian concession.
If there is no always reliable armed force, God knows what accidents will happen.
Eight hundred people may not seem like many, but for Zhao Hongyu at this stage, it is enough.
If too many genetic soldiers are left behind, it will cause protests from the Ottoman Empire or the Egyptian royal family.
Anyway, just increase it slowly in the future.
As the Song Empire slowly becomes stronger, all of this can be expanded.
In this way, Zhao Hongyu took everyone aboard the Sea King and began the return journey.
When Zhao Hongyu left Alexandria, Cairo, Egypt, Mary on the French side had already begun to send newly recruited troops to assemble towards the Spanish border.
The French's actions aroused the alert of the Spanish, and they also began to mobilize their troops to respond.
At the same time, the Holy Roman Empire became aware of the French's intentions and began to mobilize troops on the southern border of France.
As long as there is anything wrong with the French, the Holy Roman Empire's army will rush into French territory without ceremony.
The cloud of war has enveloped the three countries.
However, this move by the French actually helped the Protestant coalition forces.
Although the Protestant coalition forces relied on new tactics learned from the American continent in the early stage, they defeated the Spanish's early offensive.
But the Protestant coalition also had a weakness.
That is because their army is too small.
Therefore, although they gained a temporary advantage, they were unable to expand their results.
For this reason, the Protestants and the Spanish formed a military confrontation in the Netherlands and began a long campaign.
After all, the power of the church was still huge in this era, and the Protestant coalition began to slowly be at a disadvantage.
Because of their economic and military disadvantages, it is normal for them to be at a disadvantage now.
But the French¡¯s sudden move suddenly panicked the Spanish in the confrontation.
When the Spanish were in chaos, the church coalition also experienced fluctuations.
This suddenly gave the Protestant coalition forces a chance to breathe, and their pressure was immediately relieved a lot.
Subsequently, envoys from various countries went to France one after another, and frequently contacted the French royal family, hoping to get accurate information from Mary.
You know, the Thirty Years' War has just begun, and the French have not yet made it clear which side they are on.
But for the church and the Protestant coalition, the French had the power to influence the Libra war.
No matter whose side it is on, the scale of war will begin to tilt.
This is necessary for both parties.
It¡¯s no wonder that the two parties were so nervous and frequently came into contact with the French royal family.
The church also sent people to France, hoping to persuade France not to join the Protestant coalition.
But the French are not interested in these people at all.
Because everyone knows what the church is about.
Although the war has not yet started, the Spaniards' troubles are far from that.
In addition to the fact that the French may launch a war against themselves, the Portuguese puppet regime under its annexation and control has also experienced considerable crises and troubles.
In Portugal, a resistance organization called the Knights of Sadaros emerged. In recent times, this organization set off a storm of uprising against the Spanish in Portugal.
Although SpanishPeople sent troops to suppress them, but these rebels were like weeds. Once they were eradicated, another wave would rise again. There was no end in sight.
The turmoil in Portugal hampered the Spanish experience.
Today¡¯s Spaniards are overwhelmed and overwhelmed.
First, the Spanish army in the Netherlands wanted to fight the Protestant coalition forces.
The French have assembled heavy troops on the border, and the Spanish have to send troops to resist and respond.
At the same time, turmoil also occurred in Portugal in the backyard, which caused the Spanish military power to shrink.
In other words, it is a bit insufficient.
Three-front combat is an absolute taboo.
The Spaniards once thought about withdrawing their troops from the Netherlands and sending these troops to Portugal to suppress the uprising.
But the boss, the Holy Roman Empire, and the church don¡¯t agree.
The reason is very simple. The Spanish Legion is particularly important in the Netherlands now. They are the main force against the Protestant coalition forces.
If Spain withdraws from the Netherlands, the Protestant coalition forces will defeat other church armies and win.
This is something the church does not want to see.
Therefore, the Spaniards¡¯ idea was abandoned just after they had some ideas.
You must know that the current person in power in Spain is an absolutely devout church believer.
And as a king, he was only crowned after being recognized by the church.
Therefore, he must devote himself to the church.
At the same time, without the support of the church, Spain would not have been able to successfully annex Portugal.
Therefore, the king of Spain does not dare to offend the church forces.
Besides, the church established churches and sent priests all over Europe.
People around them always go to the church to pray, and some unknown secrets will be learned by the priests, who will then write them down and send them to the Vatican.
¡°I have to say that the church is very smart. They use the method of ¡®confession¡¯ to collect a large number of unknown secrets.
Among them are the secret records of the King of Spain.
These secret records must not be spread out.
Otherwise, his throne will be unstable.
Of course, the church cannot threaten him with such a record.
However, the church can easily find some parties to certify it. After all, everyone is repenting, right?
Therefore, it is very easy for the church to find relevant witnesses.
It can be said that the church is the earliest intelligence collection organization, and it is also a very successful organization.
?? And this method of the church is not clear to Europeans in this era.
In this regard, Europeans are far inferior to Zhao Hongyu and others on the American continent.
Zhao Hongyu and the others have long seen through the church's tactics, so even if they die, they will not go to the church to confess and tell their innermost secrets.
Even if this secret is rotten in your stomach.
People, sometimes you always want to tell the secrets in your heart or the evil deeds you have done, and talk to others.
This way you can relax and avoid hesitating too much.
The talented people in the church took advantage of this.
Didn¡¯t you see that in American blockbusters, there are always some criminals who go to church to pray and tell them what evil they have done in the past?
Those priests will only collect and summarize this information and then send it to the Vatican.
Rather than handing it over to the government.
Because they want to keep this information and seek benefits for themselves when it is most advantageous.
Zhao Hongyu and the others know this very well.
The King of Spain had such leverage in the hands of the church, so he obeyed obediently.
The Spanish regiments in the Netherlands continued to stay there to confront the Protestant coalition forces.
¡° However, the church promised Spain that it would put pressure on France so that France would not make too many moves or actions.
Unfortunately, what the church doesn¡¯t know is that the French have reached an agreement with Zhao Hongyu and received a lot of financial support from Zhao Hongyu.
So, how could the French listen to the Church?
The so-called pressure from the church is nothing more than verbal intimidation.
The French are not afraid of this at all.
Because Mary knew that all the strength of the church was now devoted to dealing with Protestantism.On things.
Now the church has no extra power to deal with France.
Although the Holy Roman Empire, the country most loyal to the church, still has 200,000 troops as a reserve force.
But Zhao Hongyu promised the French that he would contain the Holy Roman Empire to buy time for the French and Portuguese resistance organizations.
????????????????????Today, an endless stream of merchant ships arrive at the Port of Marseille, France. These ships are from the Netherlands, Sweden, the French themselves, and the British.
"The people on board were all Song Empire Army soldiers dispatched from Manhattan.
Although the number of people is not very large, only 10,000 people.
¡°However, these 10,000 people are enough to reassure the French.
After all, the Song Empire sent troops here to tell the French that they were abiding by the agreement.
¡°In this case, the French will also start to perform their duties, right?
What the French don¡¯t know is that these 10,000 soldiers of the Song Empire are already their limit.
The Song Empire will never send troops to Europe again.
For this 10,000-man army, Zhang Tie and Song Hu spent a lot of effort to gather together.
After all, the cost of cultivating genetic people also requires a lot of money, right?
The Church continued to intimidate the French, but to no avail.
After the soldiers of the Song Empire arrived in Marseille, they immediately went to station at the border between the Holy Roman Empire and southern France. This made both the Church and the Holy Roman Empire find it incredible.
They don¡¯t know when the French still had contact with the Americas and were able to get the Song Empire to send troops.
A gloom enveloped the hearts of the Church and the Holy Roman Empire, and they sensed something was wrong.
At this time, Rano, who was hiding near Lisbon, gathered all the strength of the Sadaros Knights.
The attack on Lisbon City began. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
