A complete, and not a state of oil-based system, always responds to aggression very quickly, with mite removal.

Mi Qing is based on the mentality of selling his sons without feeling sorry for his sons, and he measures the material resources of China to win the favor of all countries, or he dares to violate the Qing Dynasty and will lose even if he is far away. He is very calm. Even if he declares war on the great powers, it is just because the old women can't hold on their faces.

Tsarist Russia is not like a miliquid, and Alexei I Mikhailovich is not the old lady who was slapped in the face so blatantly. Even though she knew she could not beat her, she still chose to fight back.

The most important thing is that the current situation has forced Mikhailovic to fight back, even if Mikhailovic is unwilling to face the Ming Dynasty now.

In fact, it is not a good thing for the entire Tsarist Russia to argue with each other now. Even the Patriarch Nikon, who wanted to use divine power to suppress the monarch, knew it very well.

So in this matter, Nikon rarely stood on Mikhailovic's side, and even repeatedly advised Mikhailovic to endure the situation for a while.

Mikhailovic also wants to endure it, but what about the consequences after enduring it?

If a country has a will, then the common voice of all people in the country from the court to the common people is the most direct reflection of the will of a country.

When the civilians at the bottom and officials in the court were extremely disappointed with the king, the country basically came to an end, just like after Mi Qing completely lost the hearts of the people, it collapsed extremely quickly, and the court at that time was still very rich!

I have to say that miqing is indeed a variety of tricks. He grows big smoke in his own country and can even be sold domestically and exported later. Although the people are so miserable, the court is rich. Compared with the late Ming Dynasty, it is completely different extremes.

Now Mikhailovic dares not tolerate it. Once he endures his anger, it is secondary to whether there is money in the treasury. The influence of the people alone is enough to affect his own rule.

After coming to the Kremlin again, Nikon's attitude was still as firm as usual: "Now is definitely not a good time to have conflicts with the Ming Empire!

In my personal opinion, there is nothing to give up the meaningless land in the Far East to them. Since those damn Cossacks are seeking death by themselves, let them die.

Once a full war with the Ming Empire is launched, whether it will affect the empire's European strategy is secondary. The most important thing is that the entire empire will face a full-scale attack from the Ming Empire!"

Mihailovic nodded and said, "As you said, as long as we fight back, we will face a full-scale attack from the monster of the Ming Empire.

But what if we don’t fight back? They will stop eating our land and stop looting our civilians? What will the civilians in the entire empire think?”

Nikon shook his head and said, "It never matters how civilians look at it. You have too high regard for the role of civilians. In fact, not the civilians in any country are like civilians in the Ming Empire, and they do not have any concerns about these things.

What you are worried about is that this concession will cause the civilians of the empire to lose their confidence and trust in the empire. But you must understand that once the war begins in full swing, it is okay if we can win, but what if we fail?

Once we fail, we will lose not only the confidence and trust of the civilians, nor only the little land in the Far East, but the entire Tsarist Russia.

From the past foreign wars of the monster in the Ming Empire, we can find that they are like they will never be full, devouring the land and population they want, and this time they are the same.

If we give them a chance, like those fools in England, the Ming Empire would be happy to rush up and tear the entire Tsarist Russia to pieces and swallow it.

If we avoid them for a moment, even if the civilians are dissatisfied, they will only be dissatisfied, and will not actually affect anything, and the nobles will not do anything else.

Believe me, if we go to war with the Ming Empire, many nobles will not be able to resist surrendering or become independent, and the blow to the empire will be extremely heavy at that time."

Mihailovic sighed and said, "I know all of what you said, but the current form is like this, and there is no way to look back."

Theoretically, the center of the empire must be Europe, and it doesn't matter even if it gives up the Far East for this.

But in fact, the center of the empire is the two parts of Europe and the Far East, and neither part can be given up.

To take a step back, even if the empire is willing to give up the Far East now, can it really be said that it will let go? What if the European strategy fails?

Don't forget that the Ming Empire has intervened in the entire Europe now, otherwise those damn Poles would not invite us into Europe. Once the European strategy fails and the empire gives up the Far East, what should we do then?

Therefore, the Far East must compete with the Ming Empire, and even if it temporarily abandons the European strategy, it must continue to compete with the Ming Empire until the Ming Empire abandons the Far East."

Nikon nodded first, then shook his head: "You should have seen the style of the Ming Empire over the years. When did they give up easily?"

A wry smile appeared on Mikhailovic's face: "Give up? They never gave up their desire for land even when the two fronts started war. Now they are even more unlikely to give up.

Sometimes I can’t understand what they want so much land for? I heard that after they occupied the mainland on the Bering Strait, they were deserted and ignored it. Now they are going to occupy our land?"

Nikon said: "Who knows them? According to their current strength, the land area has far exceeded the amount of land demands of their population. Who knows what they are thinking?"

Mihailovic said: "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Anyway, you have faced them directly, so it's better to compete with them."

Nikon, who was about to be persuaded by Mikhailovich, nodded and said, "So, what about Europe? What should I do over Poland? Do you want to inform them?"

Mikhailovich said: "Tsarist Russia and Poland have never been good brothers. They have been coveting Tsarist Russia for a day or two. Now it is just because of the chaos in Europe that we are invited to Europe.

Besides, we just promised them to send troops to Europe before. Now we are going to confront the Ming Empire head-on, so how can we care about them?

Let’s send someone to support them, and do whatever they want. As long as we don’t let us retreat, we can give them some support in secret.”

Nikon nodded and said, "Those supplies that have been shipped to the border, and the troops?"

Mihailovich said: "The army except for the defense, all the rest will be transferred back to the battlefield in the Far East and start recruiting soldiers at the same time.

As for those supplies, of course, like the soldiers, except for leaving a part of them for the defenders, the rest were transferred to the Far East battlefield. Staying there would be a good chance that the damn Poles would be cheaper."

After saying that, Mihailovic stood up again and saluted Nikon and said, "Please, this time the recruitment of soldiers still requires the support of the church!"

Nikon also stood up and said seriously: "Please rest assured that the church will not drag the Tsar Russia down at this time at any time!"

This sentence comes from Nikon's sincerity.

The world is so big in total. Even if the speed of information transmission is slow, it will be enough to travel around the world in several years - the Orthodox Church led by Nikon certainly knew how the Ming Dynasty treated the Holy See.

The current Orthodox Church is under the Tsarist Russia ruled by Mikhailovich, who believes in Orthodoxism, and it is not bad to be prosperous. If it falls into the hands of the Ming Empire, only Mr. Hua or Mr. Ye will know what it will be like.

So Nikon supported Mikhailovic from the bottom of his heart and made up his mind that no matter who opposes the Orthodox Church, he must suppress it and try to create a stable rear for Mikhailovic.

However, things never go on the best conditions that people imagine.

After Nikon left, Mikhailovic ordered people to prepare a conscript order, intending to recruit men of appropriate age who meet the conditions to enter the army and fight against the Ming Empire.

However, what disappointed Mikhailovich and the entire Tsarist Russian military was that there were very few responders.

There are no fools in the top leaders, and no fools in ordinary people. What is different between the two is just the difference between knowledge or information and resources they have. What does it have to do with whether they are smart or not?

The civilians of Tsarist Russia had heard of the style of the Ming Empire, and they were naturally clear about the great reputation of the Ming Empire. Now they are going to fight against the Ming Empire?

Sorry, I'm not interested.

Not only were a large number of civilians starting to flee, but even some nobles in Moscow began to panic. After all, no one was truly not afraid of death, and everyone was afraid that Tsarist Russia and the Ming Empire were really upright.

What made Mihailovic and Nikon even more want to vomit blood were the troops that were preparing to mobilize back.

At the beginning, the troops did not know that they would go back to fight directly with the Ming Empire. They were originally happy that they didn't have to go to Poland to fight against the Holy Roman Empire.

But when these troops knew that they were mobilizing back to war directly with the Ming Empire, everyone suddenly became indifferent.

The speed of the army mobilized backwards was not only able to maintain the normal speed at the beginning, but later deserters began to appear continuously, and even established deserters began to appear later.

The only army that did not appear in deserters, or even maintained the normal marching speed, was probably the main force of Cossacks led by Khmelniks, and a total of ten regular cavalry regiments.

The Cossack army had a strong combat power, which was recognized by the whole of Europe and Tsarist Russia, as Napoleon said - if there were Cossack cavalry in my army, I would use them to sweep the whole world.

Similarly, the Cossack army does not have any military discipline. While plundering and killing enemies, it will also plunder civilians on its own side, using everything that can be used, eating everything that can be eaten, and even constantly rebelling.

Khmelnikki naturally heard about the great military power of the Ming Empire, but he didn't take it seriously - in terms of the bad reputation, the bad reputation of the Cossack cavalry in Europe and the ruling areas of Tsarist Russia can stop children from crying at night!

So Khmelnitsky did not believe in evil and planned to take the main force of the Cossacks to the Far East to see the Ming Empire that was praised by Europeans to heaven, and see how much they were, which would give the Alexei capital of Tsarist Russia.

However, Khmelnikki soon discovered a problem that made him feel very distressed.

No matter how he thought about it, Khmelnitsky did not expect that there would be problems with logistics supply. After all, he was still in the territory of Tsarist Russia, so he never thought that logistics would not be able to keep up.

But the truth is that fucking.

At the beginning, Tsarist Russia focused on increasing troops towards Poland, and all the soldiers and materials began to tilt towards Poland. As time progressed little by little, a large number of materials and soldiers had gathered on the Polish border.

Now Mikhailovich suddenly pulled all the supplies and troops to the Far East, and other troops except the Cossacks were unwilling to go to the Far East to fight the Ming Dynasty, which caused a situation where supplies were slower than Cossacks.

No matter how awesome the Cossacks are, they are still in the structure of normal people. The structure of normal people means that the Cossack cavalry also has to eat, and the key to the cavalry is the war horses. The forage and food required by war horses are in a sense more refined than those of ordinary people.

The Cossacks of ten regular cavalry regiments once again showed their unorganized and undisciplined side.

When the supplies provided at the local level are not in time or are not enough to supply the entire army to consume, the Cossacks do not mind obtaining them from the local area in their own way.

The only thing that has improved compared to before is that the Cossacks only snatch things this time, and did not kill people together.

If it were not adapted into a regular cavalry regiment, the Cossacks would not mind killing people and setting fires while robbing things, and gaining more benefits.

Mihailovic in the Kremlin was so angry.

In any case, I never expected that when I was almost desperate, the Cossack Cavalry regiment led by Khmelniks brought hope to me.

What was even more unexpected was that the Cossacks did not even let go of their own country and civilians. If they had known that their discipline was poor, no one would have thought that they would be as bad as this bird!

Nikon pushed the glasses on his nose and spoke, "Do you have anything to say about what these Cossacks have done?"

Mihailovic was furious and after a while he spoke, "What else can I say?"
