Chapter 685: Establishment of the Tsarist Russian Empire (Supplement to Yesterday 2/2)
In the cold winter of nine years of lordship, in St. Petersburg, the first tsar Ekaterina came to the throne. She perished the Golden Horde, and her military exploits surpassed that of many Dukes of Ross. He simply promoted the Grand Duchy of Moscow to the Tsarist Empire and crowned Ekaterina as the Tsar.
"By the order of the Holy Father, I proclaim my ascension to the throne and become the great tsar and grand duke of all of Russia. The feudal and aristocratic regime that has been divided for many years has come to an end. From today, the principalities of all of Russia need to be unified."
Ekaterina holds a scepter and a small censer, representing her supreme power among the grand dukes of all Rus.
There was no sound in the temple.
The Grand Duchy of Moscow is the most powerful duchy among the Duchies of Russia. When it is strong enough, it will naturally expand its territory, annex other duchies, and establish a great empire.
The Grand Duchy of Moscow is more like the Eastern Ming than the feudal Western European Ming, constantly expanding its territory.
The Grand Duchy of Moscow unified the whole of Russia, for them, it was equivalent to Qin Shihuang's unification of the six countries, and its significance is not difficult to imagine.
Among the lords, although Ekaterina suffered heavy losses in the national war, she also took advantage of this opportunity to increase her prestige and become the supreme one among the grand dukes of Russia, which was beyond the reach of other grand dukes. the first Tsar.
The establishment of the Tsarist Russian Empire meant that Ekaterina had become a European military police, monitoring every move of the Western Continent, and the surrounding Ming Dynasty would only be more afraid of the Tsarist Russian Empire.
But Ekaterina didn't care about the powerful enemies around her. As an empire, the Tsarist Russian Empire already had the ability to be on an equal footing with other empires.
After the Golden Horde was destroyed and the population of the Golden Horde was taken back, the current Tsarist Russian Empire has a population of 40 million. In the era of cold weapons, this is already an astonishing number.
Ekaterina looked around at the hundreds of generals and nobles who held military power, and then looked at Chutian. Her eyes seemed to ask whether Chutian, as the only prince of the Tsarist Russian Empire, would go up and give a speech.
Chu Tian shook his head inadvertently.
As the tsar's husband, this status is naturally very cool, but he is not too obtrusive, and he has a sense of presence at this time.
Secretly manipulating the direction of the Tsarist Russian Empire, and then trying to Sinicize Mao Zi, this is what Chu Tian wants to do, not to give a speech at the Tsar's coronation ceremony.
"We would like to serve His Majesty the Great Tsar,
Destroy all enemies in sight! "
The Cossack leaders Yermak, Khmelnytsky and others were influenced by the characteristics of the tsar and served the tsar loyally, becoming the vanguard of the expansion of the Russian Empire.
Many nobles who have received rewards are also in high spirits.
The establishment of the Tsarist Russian Empire was a rising period in which one could enhance one's title by virtue of military exploits.
Xiao Chuo participated in the coronation ceremony of Ekaterina, and seeing that Ekaterina became a figure of the empress level, he couldn't help muttering. If she had the chance, she might not be able to become such a character.
Yekaterina, even Chu Tian should pay attention to her strength.
It's a pity to say that Chutian's attention to her is not only personal feelings, but also the power represented by Ekaterina.
If the Tsarist Russian Empire can be united, it may be possible to unify the lord world faster.
After all, Chutian was notorious in foreign wars, and he really had few allies.
"His Royal Highness, I am Nevsky of Glacier. I was in command of the right wing during the Battle of the Don River. It is an honor to meet you. Your ambush soldier appeared at the right time. I thought that he would die in the battle of the Don River. "
A military general of the Tsarist Russian Empire took the initiative to salute Chutian. This is the glacier hero Nevsky who defeated the Swedes in history and the Knights of the Sword later merged into the Teutonic Knights.
Chu Tian's current identity is King Xia of the Han Empire, Prince of the Tsarist Russian Empire, Tian Khan, General of the Han Empire, Yanzhou Shepherd, Great Virtuous Teacher, Four Generations and Three Dukes, Hero who saved Moscow
In particular, the status of the prince of the Tsarist Russian Empire allowed Chutian to run rampant in the Tsarist Russian Empire, and Yekaterina's subordinates also respected Chutian when they saw Chutian.
"Nevsky on the Glacier"
Chu Tian silently wrote down the name of this person, and this person seemed to be a good general as well.
"Dmitry on the Lower Don."
"In the Grand Duke of Nizhny Novgorod."
"Grand Duke of Tver."
Military generals and nobles from the Tsarist Russian Empire came to make friends with Chutian one after another, causing Chutian a headache. Remembering the names and titles of these people is not friendly to real Easterners.
As the only prince of the Tsarist Russian Empire, Chutian had no choice but to nod in agreement.
After Ekaterina ascended the throne, she quickly returned to her palace and specially summoned Chu Tian.
"My lord must be squeezed again"
As a concubine who enjoys the same treatment as Princess Xia, Hua Mulan replaces Chutian and talks with nobles from the Russian Empire who visit Chutian.
Chutian also left Xiao Chuo to help Hua Mulan. With Xiao Chuo around, everything is easy, even though Hua Mulan is not very familiar with politics.
"It's really enviable."
Xiao Chuo seems to think that Ekaterina has reached the peak and has an excuse to possess Chutian for a short time. In comparison, she is now just a prisoner.
"envious?"
Hua Mulan didn't understand what Xiao Chuo was referring to.
Soon, the news that the Grand Duchy of Moscow was promoted to the Tsarist Empire spread throughout the western continent, and even spread to the eastern continent.
The Tsarist Russian Empire does not have much influence on the current Eastern Continent.
But this news, to Ming in the Western Continent, is no less than a bolt from the blue sky!
The Tsarist Russian Empire is not friendly to Western European Ming, Northern European Ming, and even Western Western Ming and the Kingdom of Poland. The threat it brings is no less than Attila's Hunnic Empire!
And the timing of the establishment of the Russian Empire was just right.
The Golden Horde fell, and Ekaterina's reputation was in full swing.
Attila and Temujin captured the Hungarian Kingdom, and their soldiers pointed directly at Vienna. Western lords were busy blocking Attila and Temujin, and Attila and Temujin wanted to defeat Alexander and others as soon as possible. No one could stop them The Russian Empire is established.
After a civilization is strong, it will naturally establish an empire or a federation.
Ekaterina was crowned as the tsar, Chutian's youngest son was the crown prince of the Russian Empire, and the adjutant Sophia was named the new Grand Duke of Ryazan because of her long-term and loyal follower of Ekaterina.
"The Tsarist Russian Empire was built on the ruins of the Golden Horde!"
Temujin was furious when he heard the news.
Without the demise of the Golden Horde, Ekaterina might not have had enough prestige to build a great empire.
What's even more exasperating is that Chutian actually became the prince of the Tsarist Russian Empire, enjoying prestige in the Tsarist Russian Empire, and Chutian's prestige in the Tsarist Russian Empire also came from the ruins of the Golden Horde.
In other words, the Golden Horde became a stepping stone.
This made it difficult for Temujin to accept for a while, but he had to accept it.
"The Tsarist Russian Empire must be on guard against it"
Attila deployed heavy troops between the Hunnic Empire and the Tsarist Russian Empire.
Although changing from a principality to an empire seems to have changed the name, in fact, the internal cohesion and the degree of centralization have increased significantly.
Originally, each principality and nobles acted independently, but now Ekaterina can centralize power in the name of the tsar.
"The Russian Empire"
The German lord Hohenzollern rubbed his temple in pain. This name gave many lords in the western continent a headache.
He could already foresee that even if he defeated Attila and Temujin in the future, he would have to face the behemoth Tsarist Russia.
"Take care of Attila and Temujin first. In the future, we must conquer the Tsarist Empire."
Alexander learned that the Grand Duchy of Moscow not only delayed sending troops, but also took the opportunity to establish an empire, so he had no choice but to secretly record this holiday.
"The territory of our Roman Republic extended to North Africa, Venice, Genoa, Malta, Rhode Island, should also become a great empire."
The three giants of Rome can't wait to get rid of the control of the Roman Senate and become the supreme emperor.
The establishment of the Tsarist Russian Empire led to the birth of the Roman Empire.
All the civilizations in the Western Continent seemed unwilling to stay at the principality and kingdom stage. After all, the Tsarist Russian Empire had established itself.
Chu Tian, who temporarily lived in St. Petersburg, did not know the uproar caused by the establishment of the Tsarist Empire. He was wandering around St. Petersburg with his youngest son. If nothing else happened, this would be the second tsar in the future.
Ekaterina is distributing the interests of various nobles and strengthening the centralization of power.
In the mainland of the Han Empire, various legions were replenishing their troops and training their troops.
"By the way, there is a recruitment order, which seems to have expired."
Chu Tian took out a recruitment order from his bosom.
When the Mongol Empire was destroyed, Chutian obtained two recruitment orders, one with a three-month cool-down period and the other with a six-month cool-down period.
Generally speaking, the longer the cooldown period of the special recruitment order, the higher the quality of the recruited heroes may be.
For example, the special recruitment order of the holy level has a cooldown period of one year.
One of the recruitment orders with a cooldown period of three months has expired, but Chu Tian has been fighting and has never been used.
"Ding! You can choose to recruit heroes from this Ming District, or other Ming District heroes, please choose."
Can you also recruit heroes from other bright areas?
It was the first time Chutian heard that a recruitment order could recruit generals from other Ming districts.
In the past, recruiting orders were generally to directly recruit heroes from their bright zone.
However, the recruitment order obtained from the demise of the Mongol Empire seems to be unusual.
Anyway, it was only a three-month recruitment order, and Chu Tian didn't care much about the king-level heroes at most, so he made a different choice than before: "Recruit other heroes from the bright area."
"The system will randomly select the bright zone"
"Ding! You got one of England's twelve round table knights"
An English knight appeared in front of Chu Tian and Little Peter.
Really other Ming heroes
