Chapter 95 Methods to Drive Control and Influence

"Repent, God's punishment is coming!"

A missionary was preaching Orthodox doctrine on the outskirts of Cluj. Because it was in Hungary, the movement must be small.

The Church of Wallachia, after establishing the Diocese of Transylvania, began to support it heavily and was successful, building an Orthodox church in Cluj and gaining recognition.

Do you know why it was approved? The other party directly led people to surround the home of the mayor of Cluj and spent 50 gold coins.

But anyway, the church was built.But because of pressure from the Catholic Church, the address is in a remote location.

The Orthodox Church spread rapidly among other nations except the Hungarians, because the penance and poverty of the Orthodox Church set off the luxury and corruption of the Catholic Church, and they were unwilling to pay for such a church. They wanted the Orthodox Church to replace the Catholic Church, so their burden would be will be smaller.

Even so, Catholicism is still firmly rooted here.Because Orthodox Christianity is mainly spread among the lower classes, most nobles still believe in Catholicism.Their roots are very stable.

In this regard, Transylvania has become a target of the Andre Society.They become scholars, doctors, teachers, etc., and go deep into the grassroots to spread religion.He also persuaded some Catholics to convert, but with little success.

Transylvania has always been incorporated into Hungary as an autonomous principality, and the king sent a governor to govern it. During the period of Emperor Lajos, the minerals here were developed.A lot of financial support has been provided for Hungary, but the local Hungarians are a minority, and they are closer to Wallachia and Moldova in blood and culture, which is why Romania can get here in the future.

Wallachia naturally also stared at this land, but must be patient now.Osman is still there.

Of course, heading east from Moldova is the Golden Horde, which has lost its former glory after more than a hundred years of wear and tear.Lithuania is also staring at this place, and Wallachia wants to establish a basic market while they expand northward.

Some Cossack chieftains began to settle between the Transnistria and the Dnieper under the money offensive of Wallachia. Peter personally bought them agricultural tools, seeds, and provided them with some commodities.In return, the Cossacks must provide a group of cavalry to help Wallachia fight, and they must obey their superiors, and they can get [-]% of the spoils.

Most people want to settle down and live a stable life. They are either serfs who escaped or adventurers who want to try their luck. Tatars and other nomads are the natural enemies of these people. For this reason, they can only work hard to maintain Military strength, the only way to protect their property.

The Cossacks could not be treated like other people. The envoys sent by Peter told the chiefs that they only needed to provide troops and loyalty, and Wallachia could provide them with goods and food.There can also be great perks on loot.This was a great temptation for the Cossacks who could only survive by fighting and looting. Some chiefs expressed their willingness to cooperate with Wallachia.But there were still some pro-Lithuanians who refused, but Peter was also very satisfied.

The southern part of Ukraine is still dominated by swamps and grasslands, and the development is still very primitive.Nomad's pot has belonged.

It will take at least seven or eight years to develop this place, and a lot of human and financial resources will be invested.More importantly, it is to ensure that the property of the peasants is not lost, and the looting of the Tatars must be eliminated.

The Ross Company and the Church are responsible for the main force of reclamation, with Aaron as the first base to reclaim inland.The land it reclaimed belonged to the Grand Duke and his son. In the world where the Tatars ruled, this was the only safe haven for others.

----split line----

Regardless of population or area, Wallachia can be ranked first in Europe.Before the rise of the Grand Duchy of Moscow and when Rome was about to perish, Wallachia began to support the banner of the Orthodox Church, and Grand Duke Mircea regarded himself as a Christian defender.This has great appeal among Orthodox Christians.

Like Dmitry Donskoy, Wallachia's defeat of the Ottomans had as much impact as Moscow's defeat of the Golden Horde.In this way, the Orthodox Church established two centers: one in Wallachia in the Balkans, and the other in Moscow in the northeast.

Although the enemies are different, when facing a nation with the same religion and the same habits, an Orthodox country can break out and defeat the opponent.This is undoubtedly very exciting.

In this situation where there are enemies in the east and enemies in the west, the Orthodox Church can only save itself.We must unite our forces, and if we want to unite, we must eliminate those who do not cooperate and who are lackeys.

In the construction of the new capital, some buildings have been completed.The Grand Duke's official residence and cathedral are still under construction, and due to its geographical location, a large number of caravans will come here to trade, which increases the prosperity of the city.

And half of these achievements were established by Peter.He was the richest man in Wallachia, and the one who gave the most money and effort.But most of his investment is through the hands of the government, so the people have more respect for the Grand Duke of Wallachia.

While Peter was not in Bulgaria, Osman had a small group of cavalry harassing the border.Both were repulsed by the Wallachian cavalry, but overall the peace was maintained.

As for Serbia, Brankovic began to worry about Hungary.I am in the middle of the three powers, and the balance technique is very good.

For this reason, he sent a special envoy to Buda to make friends, and the tribute to Ottoman and Wallachia was also handed over on time.Just to prevent the two countries from having an excuse to attack, this is the dance of three eggs.

"My lord, Bayezid's son has taken office."

Peter looked at the information submitted by Petkov, and an invisible dull expression appeared in Peter's mind.

What kind of ghosts and snakes is this? The performance of the eldest son during the Ottoman interregnum is hard to describe.What a life of luxury, moodiness, and the habit of smoking opium.But he also gave Europe a break by giving some land back to Europe and Rome, including Thessaloniki.

But later, Suleiman was defeated and killed by Bayezid's other son Musa when he had the upper hand.Therefore, the evaluation of him in the Ottoman history books is very poor.

Peter felt that the book was probably correct, because the Ottoman prince had brought several chests of opium with him when he took office.And he asked for it on his own initiative, and the reason was even more speechless, just to compare himself to Peter.

"Just watch him and don't let him cross the line."

Now Wallachia needs stability, so there will be no war for now.As for Ottoman, only fate.
