king of ros

Chapter 591 Extra Story: Red Sun Glory
Although it is said that Kalita led Ross to get rid of the Tatar yoke, this did not allow him and his descendants to rule Ross smoothly. The descendants of Kalita had to deal with the huge pressure from the south while dealing with Ross. Opposition everywhere.

The legitimacy of the Kalita family came from the grace of the Khan, that is, the appointment of the Khan, but now that the authority of the Khan has been overthrown in Ross, the legitimacy of their rule has naturally been doubted and shaken.

After all, there are still a lot of princes in various places in Ross, and if it is based on seniority, the legitimacy of the Kalita line does not appear to be so high.

In the face of internal and external crises, in order to strengthen his rule, Kalita's son Yuri decided to move the Grand Duke's permanent residence to Kiev, and strengthen his own legitimacy by being on the front line to face nomadic threats.

Although this bold move has indeed greatly strengthened the legitimacy of the Kalita family, the problem still exists. In order to solve this problem more effectively, Yuri suggested that the church deify the Kalita family. Finding legitimacy for the Kalita family.

At the same time, they made extensive use of the fact that Rostislav established Moscow, and the Kalita family rebuilt Moscow. They crazily drew relationships with their ancestors who had a powerful reputation, and used Rostislav's reputation and sanctity to increase their legitimacy.

To this end, the Kalita family performed numerous Rostislav ceremonies, reinforcing the legendary ancestor's reputation as well as their own.

However, the Kalita family is very clear that these are just icing on the cake in the final analysis. The key to truly securing power is to maintain control of the three capitals, namely Kiev, Novgorod and Moscow. These three cities must be in the Under their direct jurisdiction, the Kalita family has the ability to overwhelm the entire Rose.

At the same time, they can't be satisfied just because they control these three cities. Their power still needs to continue to expand and develop, so as to make them stronger.

While fighting against various foreign invaders headed by grassland forces, the Kalita family also gradually took power out of the hands of the princes internally, and then absorbed them into the Kiev court, in order to ensure the quality and quantity of the army , the Kalita family carried out service estate reforms.

At this moment, the Golden Horde is falling into the most chaotic moment in its history. The Khan of Sarai was replaced like a horse on a horse, and the then Grand Duke Vasily of Rus seized this opportunity and launched the expansion of Bulgar.

And Ross's reappearance was in 1412, when the Teutonic Knights and the Polish-Lithuanian United Kingdom had an unprecedented war. When everyone's attention was on the war and its consequences, the Russian army Quietly crossed its western frontier.

Such reforms undoubtedly represent the high-intensity control of the Kalita family on Ross, which is unacceptable to many people, so they have never faced a lot of opposition, and sometimes even developed into civil wars.

Facing the heavy pressure from the Ross side, the Polish-Lithuanian United Kingdom and the Teutonic Knights had to abandon their disputes and turn to fight against the Ross army coming from the east.

Winning Kazan is regarded as the beginning of the transformation of the forest and grassland offensive and defensive trend. Since then, Ross will never waver in front of the grassland. On the contrary, Ross has become more and more active in the face of the grassland, and even started On the road to the destruction of the Tatar Khanate.

After this suppression, the Kalita family's reforms to Ross also accelerated by leaps and bounds. A large number of princes died in the war, and their land was brought under the jurisdiction of the Kalita family. These lands were converted into service estates and became the driving force for Ross's expansion.

In the following time, almost every Ross tsar would launch an Eastern European war after taking power for a period of time to show his martial arts. Tatar Khanate.

The most intense civil war broke out in 1362. Novgorod launched a rebellion to overthrow the governor of the Grand Duke, and then set off a frenzy against the Kalita family in various parts of Ross. This civil war lasted for five years. Fortunately, In the end it was suppressed.

Since it was destroyed by the Mongols, this land has gone through a lot, but the strong people on it have still rebuilt it, and a new city has been built, and now people call that city Kazan.

More than [-] troops were invested in this military operation. Ross's attack caught everyone off guard. Over the years, Ross has been playing the role of an outsider in the European situation, focusing only on the struggle with the grassland and its internal affairs. One would have thought that Tsar Rus was preparing such a war.

During this period, a very important thing happened in Ross, that is, the Kalita family crowned themselves and wore the crown of the Tsar, and Ross became the Tsarist State of Ross.

However, after taking Kazan, Ross did not make any major moves for a long time. Apart from resisting the counterattack from the grassland, Ross put all his energy into digesting the newly annexed land and continued to practice reforms within Ross. For a moment Ross seemed very quiet, as if it had withdrawn from the continental political arena.

This war is called the first Eastern European war, because the war spread to half of Europe. As for why it was the first time, after the end of Hungary and the Holy Roman Empire, the Ross people finally retreated unwillingly.

This expansion of Ross dispatched 7 people, all of whom came from various military units formed by Ross today. The effect of the reform is very obvious, and this army conquered Kazan very easily, and the locals have long been tired of it. Because of the rule of the Tatars, they welcomed the liberation of the Western Catholics very much, and it was because of this that the Rus could take this land so smoothly.

The content of this reform is very simple, that is, to bind land and military service, and at the same time establish the rules in Ross that tax is not served, and service is not taxed.

Although in the west, Ross is constantly hitting a wall, but in the east, Ross's success is remarkable. By the middle of the 15th century, Ross had already controlled the lower Volga and Crimea. It can be said that the entire southern Russian grassland has been under the rule of Ross. .

It was against this background that Ross ushered in a new tsar, his name was Ivan, and he would be remembered by the entire Christian world, so he would set off the largest and most influential The strongest Eastern European war completely changed the political situation in the Christian world.

--------

The future of Ross is roughly introduced here, and there is nothing to say next, it is nothing more than following the route of Emperor Russia (of course, the next step will definitely be the dynasty of Rurik, not Romanov), and then go to To welcome the October Revolution, I will explain some historical changes caused by Rostislav, such as the development of Vinland and Jerusalem.
