king of ros

Chapter 590 Extra Story: The Day of Restoration

Perhaps because of the rich harvest in Ross, Batu's expedition went further this time. Their army crushed Poland, penetrated Shinra, and then crossed the entire France, and came to the Atlantic Ocean to give their own The horse washes its hooves.

After completing this series of Megatron operations in Europe, Batu returned to the Volga River. According to the rules of the Great Mongolia, each Ulus cannot own a city, and the city must directly belong to Hara Helin. Then he Batu built the city himself.

So just like this, a big city appeared on the Volga River where there should not have been a big city. Using the huge amount of gold and silver and slaves obtained from the second Western Expedition, Batu smashed out a big city, even if it was because of the construction of the city. On the saline-alkali land, a unique water selling industry has emerged, and he just smashed it out with resources.

Batu's authority became stronger and stronger as time went by. As the third generation leader of the Golden Family, he was born with extremely strong prestige in the Great Mongolia. peak.

People at the time said that Batu's position in the western half of the Mongolian Kingdom was far stronger than that of Mengge in the eastern half of the Mongolian Kingdom, not to mention that Mengge Khan still owed Batu favors, in other words In other words, if Batu is willing, he can launch another Western Expedition, just like the second Western Expedition that year, and gather more than half of the power of the Great Mongolia to help him fight.

In the face of such a powerful Khan, the princes of Rus could only bow their heads and proclaim their vassals, but their internal disputes continued due to the arrangement of the Mongols. After a short civil war, Alexander Nevsky of Novgorod Was appointed Grand Duke of All Russ by Batu.

Now the Grand Duke of All Rus is not exclusive to the princes of Kiev, but is used by Khan to mobilize Kiev, Moscow and Novgorod, just like they used the princes of Kiev, Moscow and Novgorod to mobilize these three Prince Rurik in the area.

The all-Russian grand duke faced a difficult situation. Mongolia’s silver tributes overwhelmed Russia, and in the west, Lithuanians, Crusader Knights and Swedes appeared on the border again, and free trade The alliance has also been severely shaken, and many towns have fallen to the Hanseatic with the German city-state as the main body, and a new trade alliance is emerging.

In the Baltic Sea, Ross is the enemy of the world, and all forces want to carve up the heritage that is difficult to protect after the decline of Ross. Faced with such a situation, all Nevsky can do is to express his obedience to Sarai. He even went to Sarai many times to ask for Khan's reinforcements. On the other hand, he tried his best to fight against the enemies from the west, defeated Lithuania, Sweden and the Crusader Knights' border encroachment, and continued to fight fiercely on the border.

Due to the lack of internal support in the Khanate, Wulabuhua and others who initiated the conspiracy could only temporarily turn a blind eye to Kalita's indulgent behavior. They were almost unable to suppress internal opposition. Not to mention the outside.

In 1299, Nahai was killed by Tuotuo, and the Khanate civil war finally ended, and then Tuotuo began to solve Ross's rebellion.

In Sarai, Tutuo's failure plunged him into civil war, but the khan quickly suppressed the civil strife, and then he started the centralization and economic concentration of the khanate. Tutuo was not a An easy opponent to deal with, Kalita spent the rest of his life fighting Tutuo.

Under such circumstances, Bergo decided to solve this hidden danger himself, but Allah, whom he had converted to, failed to bless him, and he passed away at this critical moment.

Yuri’s position as Grand Duke of All Rus was only held in his hands for a short period of time. As Belgo joined the many civil wars within the Great Mongol Kingdom, the most of them was the confrontation with the Ilkhanate around Azerbaijan—— The original Georgia has been beaten back to the Kingdom of Georgia, and now it is a half-dead Mongolian vassal—the Mongols have begun to mobilize the Rurik princes again, mobilizing them like radishes hanging in front of donkeys, Let Ross mess around.

Nevsky can be said to be dancing in shackles, but he still successfully defended the country of Ross and kept the enemy out of the country of Ross. The only loss he caused during his reign was the collapse of the Free Trade Alliance. To add insult to injury to almost the entire Baltic Sea forces, Nevsky was simply unable to lead this broken Ross to protect those things that could only be held in Ross's heyday.

Berge Khan didn't care about Yuri's petty actions. The Khan destroyed the wealthy Nicaea of ​​the Eastern Empire during the third Western Expedition, forcing the emperor of Constantinople to hand over a large amount of gold and silver treasures. He also expressed his surrender, and now he is still anxious to use the money to do a big thing. The original location of the sale was unreasonable, and Bergo built a more reasonable sale, and the materials were removed from the old sale—although It is said that this new Salai is still built on saline-alkali land, and water still needs to be transported from outside to the city.

After this battle, Ross successfully achieved independence and got rid of the Tatar yoke. However, Kalita still has a long way to go. Ross is still ruled by groups of princes. Kalita intends to change this situation. , For this reason, he did not hesitate to directly include the land of the prince who died in battle, which caused him to receive a lot of criticism, but the prestige of defeating the Khanate made it difficult for anyone to challenge him.

It can be said that Ross defeated the Mongols completely relying on his existing strength. If it is said that Kalita's greatest achievement is that he is the only one who integrated the Ross people.

Today's Moscow Prince Yuri became the Grand Duke by marrying Khan's daughter. Facing the severe situation, to be honest, Yuri's performance was very bad. Facing the Crusader Knights and the Swedes, it can be said that He has been defeated repeatedly, and he seemed extremely incompetent in the face of Lithuania's encroachment, but fortunately he persisted. With the return of the army of Jochi Ulus' third western expedition, these invaders were also pushed back .

At this time, the prince of Moscow was Ivan Kalita, and people also called him Ivan the Moneybag. As the most loyal tax collector of the Mongols, Kalita could be said to have drained the entire Ross and sent it to Sarai. It's just that the Khan of Sarai didn't notice when he promoted such a dog leg for them. Kalita intercepted a lot of money that should have been handed over to the Khan, and then he used the money to buy those The principality of the impoverished prince, and then set up his own vassals.

After being looted and massacred, Moscow has recovered quickly in the past few decades. As a city in Rostislav, it has a strong sacred aura. A large number of immigrants who went north chose to go here. They rebuilt in the ruins The city of Rostislav quickly brought him back to its former glory.

In 1290, Tuotuo, the son of Mange Timur, raised an objection. He went to the west of the Khanate, where the powerful ruler of the Dnieper River Grassland, Nahai, is undoubtedly within the current Jochi Urus Strong, he has a strong army and the left wing of the Khanate, and is regarded as the elder of the Khanate.

Kalita has a lot of work, and he has many ideas about transforming the country, but it takes him a lifetime to prepare, just like Rostislav did back then.

Of course the Mongols were well aware of his little tricks, but considering that without Kalita, it would be difficult to find such a capable tax collector, so they allowed Kalita's little tricks. In the eyes of the Mongols, Kalita No matter what, it is impossible to threaten their rule. As long as Jochi Ulus keeps rising, it is absolutely impossible for the Ross people to fight back.

This kind of behavior not only exists in Northeast Ross, but also exists everywhere in Ross. There are also many Ross princes who seem to be independent, but have actually surrendered to Kalita. As for the opponents of Kalita, he also used Mongolia Human hands work out.

Yes, this is true, but the question is what if there is a problem with the Khanate itself?
In 1287, the four Jochi clan kings headed by Ulabuhua launched a conspiracy. They deposed Tutuo Mengge on the pretext of being addicted to witchcraft. Since then, Jochi Urus has entered the "Four Emperors" During this period, Kalita took advantage of the special political situation of the Khanate to do more things that he did not dare to think of before, such as letting Novgorod in the hands of his governor and stationing troops in Kiev. The posture of a powerful grand duke holding the three capitals in his hands.

But Yuri played a vital role in the subsequent development of Rus. Since Moscow is a reconstructed city, the city has a strong vigor and vitality that is unmatched by other cities. The huge upward space makes many Kiev And the elite of Novgorod came here to serve the Muscovite princes.

After Belgo's death, the new Khan was Timur, the grandson of Batu. After sending a large number of gifts to Moscow, Sarai acquiesced in Moscow's possession of the title of prince and the expansion of Moscow through Belgo's death. territory.

This provided Moscow with a considerable elite group. Using this group, Yuri began to reform, and his reform plan came from Rostislav's "Discussion of Ancient Political Forms".

But what is a little ridiculous is that in the middle of the battle, Kalita once thought that the war had been lost, so he fled the battlefield. If it weren't for a monk called Sergey who encouraged the Ross people to persevere, the Ross people would be defeated again. Ushered in a failure.

Yuri began to set up a group of vassals exclusively for the princes of Moscow. In the past, the nobles of Rus were not regarded as belonging to someone, and they could change jobs at will without being blamed. The family's vassal group, and it was his reform that gave Moscow its strength in the future.

Wu Labuhua and others naturally had strong opposition in the Khanate, and these opposition did not disappear because of the blow, it would only make them better prepared.

After Nevsky's death, encroachment from the West suddenly accelerated. After his death, the competition for the title made Ross unable to counteract it for a while, while Berge Khan was busy with the third Western Expedition. The Khan's successor The Khan throne was full of doubts. His two nephews died shortly after succeeding to the throne, and the Khan throne fell into his hands, but no one doubted that the third brother of Batu De, his position was still extremely stable.

After Tuotuo, Yue Jibehan was even more difficult to deal with. He even successfully disintegrated the Ilkhanate and brought great trouble to Ross.

However, this Western Expedition helped the Kingdom of Jerusalem to regain Jerusalem. Since then, the Kingdom of Jerusalem has become the most loyal vassal of the Ilkhanate. It is also a surprise to win the Ilkhanate.

However, in order to secure this position, Moscow has to pay more and more tribute to satisfy the Mongols, and they have done a very good job. Even if the people below complain constantly, they also collect taxes. Therefore, in In the era of Tuttomongo, their family was able to become the Grand Duke of All Russ.

Nahai agreed to Tuotuo's request without hesitation, and led the army to Sarai to rectify the situation. On the way, Nahai used the news that he was about to die to lure and kill Wu Labuhua and others, and then Tuotuo was able to succeed.But then a conflict broke out between Nahai and Tuotuo. It was difficult for the powerful officials and the equally powerful monarch to coexist, and they soon broke out in war.

Tutuo assembled a nomadic army of more than 6, and Ross did not show any weakness. The combined forces of the princes and princes had a total strength of [-]. Ross has been recovering over the years. mobilized, but they never forgot their hatred, and because of this, Kalita was able to assemble such an army.

And when the Khanate was in turmoil, in Ross, Kalita declared the independence of Ross, and the Khanate would not have time to deal with Ross's rebellion due to internal disputes.

On September 1300, 9, the two sides fought on the banks of the Don River. This war was also called the Don River War by later generations. This time, the forest defeated the grassland. Tuotuo's army collapsed in the continuous fierce battle, and Ross's red shield was able to survive. Stand proudly on the battlefield.

At present, Belgo is unable to take out an army to defend his vassals. Under such circumstances, he appointed the young Prince Yuri of Moscow to clean up the mess and gave him the title of Grand Duke of All Rus.

Moscow, on the other hand, develops quietly. The turmoil in the whole of Russia is in stark contrast to the calmness of Moscow, which makes many people come to Moscow. As a city of Rostislav, the name alone is enough to attract many people. Naturally, the Khan of Lai couldn't just watch Moscow develop like this. Belgo often gave the position of Prince of Moscow to other Princes of the Queen of the Forest, but they were all quickly defeated by Moscow.

In addition, because Belgo actually retreated after completing the looting of the Minor region, the Mongolian army fighting in Egypt was defeated, which led to some beams between him and the Ilkhanate, and these beams will be Pave the way for the next war.

But at this time, these struggles are not so much about the yoke of Tatars, but the daily struggles of forests and grasslands. It will take a long time for the descendants of Kalita to emerge from such high-intensity struggles. .

But anyway, this era of the Tatar yoke is over, 180 years earlier than in history.

Someone asked what the protagonist changed, and this is what the protagonist changed, leaving behind a more integrated Ross, not the historical one that became super bulk due to the massacre of the Mongols and lost skills so much that he couldn’t even make bricks The real barbarians, the civil strife in Jochi Ulus is periodic, and there have been two civil strife in the early history, but the Rus was too loose and destroyed to take advantage of it.
