Nanming: I can build wonders

To the north of them, Sweden along the Baltic Sea was always threatening the safety of Rakshasa.

Moreover, Sweden at this time is really full of martial arts, and its territory is much larger than that of later generations.

Between 1560 and 1658, Sweden formed a Baltic Empire centered on the Gulf of Finland, including Karelia, Ingria, Estonia and Livonia.

In the 30 Years' War, Sweden also gained a large territory in Germany, including West Pomerania, Wismar, the Principality of Bremen and Felden, and Sweden also conquered Denmark and Norway north of the Sond Strait territory.

Sweden is Rakshasa's number one enemy in Europe.

And to the west is another feud of the Raksha Kingdom, big waves!

Southwest is the second hair of the same Slavic nation.

But at this time, the east side of Ermaozi already belonged to Luocha.

In 1654, the Cossack leader Khmelnytsky signed the Pereyaslav Peace Treaty with the Russian Tsar, and invited Tsarist Russia to rule Dongwu. Since then, the left bank of the Dnieper River has officially merged with Rakshasa.

But the other side is not close to the Raksha Kingdom, but a vassal of Dabobo.

Fortunately, because of the Ottoman invasion of Austria, Dabobo's relationship with Rakshasa has eased a lot thanks to the Eight-Nation Alliance.

In addition to these, there is the Ottoman Empire in the south and the Crimean Khanate that needs to build a Great Wall defense.

Moreover, the most terrible thing is that the relationship between Luocha Kingdom and Daming is very tense.

The only good news is that thanks to Sophia's marriage to Kangxi, Raksha has a powerful ally in Qing Dynasty.

At this time, Sophia looked at the large hand-painted map placed on the imperial case in front of her.

Looking at the extremely shrinking territory of the Raksha Kingdom above, Sophia was very depressed.

First of all, Ming "robbed" a large area of ​​Siberia from the Raksha Kingdom, and secondly, the Qing Dynasty was the overlord and ally in Central Asia, and the Raksha Kingdom could no longer expand into Central Asia.

After seeing the Raksha Country staring at the map for a long time, it finally focused its attention on Central Siberia.

It is the territory of Ming Dynasty, but it is marked with a red question mark.

"Near Central Siberia, what's going on?"

"Your Majesty the Tsar, you don't know that Ming has black magic. As long as the warriors of the empire enter the land of Ming, they will die in various ways for no reason!"

The court advisor on the side quickly asked and answered.

Sophia frowned, then moved her eyes down, and finally her eyes fixed on the land of the Ming Empire.

Seeing Da Ming's vast territory made her drool, she vowed that as long as Da Ming weakened, she would definitely attack Da Ming.

"Is the Ming Empire peaceful in the near future?"

"of course not!"

The court advisor on the side shook his head without hesitation.

"The Ming people have recently been ambitiously developing westward and northward, constantly encroaching on the land of the West Siberia Plain, but the empire can't do anything to them, their army is too strong!"

Upon hearing this, Sophia couldn't help but frown. Isn't this encroaching on the land a routine of their Raksha Kingdom?

When she heard about Mingren's army, Sophia was as drunk as a bucket.

In the Raksha country these days, they don't dare to brag about any fighting nation.

They are not qualified to boast, just a European straw bag.

If you dare to brag about the fighting nation, you can't be directly slapped in the face?

"Is the Empire's army that bad?"

The court secretary on the side also had no choice but to reply in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, the handicraft industry of the empire is too backward. Now the army of the Ming Empire has replaced a large number of new muskets, which are more powerful than the most advanced flintlock guns in Western Europe, and there are new cannons!"

"In contrast to the most elite shooting army in the empire, the vast majority of soldiers only have old-fashioned matchlock guns, which is not even as good as the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Empire has bright weapons!"

Well, the consultant is a smart person after all, he didn't directly say that the Raksha Kingdom is not capable of fighting, but just said that the weapons of the empire are too backward.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is really a good way to shirk responsibility.

But Sophia nodded slightly, expressing her approval.

"Indeed, the handicraft industry of the empire is inferior to that of Europe and the Ming Empire!"

After all, Sophia suddenly raised her head, stared at the blue eastern sky outside the window with her round face, and said.

"The Rakshasa Empire does not need such a large territory now, and there is no need to go to war with the most powerful empire and the richest emperor in the world because of territorial issues!"

Sophia is very self-aware.

"Aside from producing fur, what is the use of the land in the east? Why not give it to the greedy Ming people!"

Sophia's grandfather, Grand Duke Miloslavski, agreed.

"That's right, we can actually live in harmony with Daming. As far as I know, the emperor of Daming doesn't seem to have much hostility towards our Raksha country. On the contrary, he still likes the people of our Raksha country!"

"Grand Duke, I would like to remind you that the Ming Kingdom does not like everyone in the Raksha Kingdom, they like the women of the Raksha Kingdom!"

"Young and beautiful!"

Outside, there was a sound of footsteps, and it was Adrian, the Patriarch of Raksha Kingdom, who came in.

As he walked, he said to Grand Duke Miloslavsky.

The Orthodox Patriarch Adrian is an honest man who speaks the truth directly.

"That's not the same. Let's export more beauties from the Raksha Kingdom and bribe the Emperor of Ming!"

Grand Duke Miloslavski is obviously old and out of his mind.

Giving beautiful women to Daming, isn't it a meat bun to beat a dog?

Don't let Daming's bachelor get hotheaded and write a letter requesting to conquer the Raksha Kingdom, that would be great fun.

But the dazed Grand Duke Miloslavski didn't care, and still talked loudly about the benefits of lower-body diplomacy.

"Since this is the case, as for Grand Duke Imiroslavsky, the Raksha Kingdom has plenty of consumables!"

Sophia waved her hand and said.

She didn't care about this, because the aristocratic tsar of the Raksha Kingdom would not treat the serfs at the bottom as human beings at all. There were too many Raksha white slaves sold in the European slave market, and Sophia didn't care.

The current Rakshasa is the serious Europa womb.

"Choose a hundred female slaves and prepare a batch of gifts. We will import weapons from the world's largest military power, the Ming Empire. Although the Ming Empire is expanding, how far can they expand? Siberia is a mess. !"

"Your Majesty, your decision is really wise!"

The Orthodox Patriarch Adrian couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

This is indeed a very wise decision.

For the Raksha Kingdom, which is surrounded by enemies on all sides, it is a great blessing to be able to lose such a powerful enemy as Da Ming.

As long as Daming doesn't make a move, their Rakshasa will dare to expand everywhere.

Otherwise, there will be a giant ready to poke Rakshasa's back at any time, who can resist it!
As for Sophia, she couldn't help but smile wryly after hearing the words.

"It's not easy to be a tsar!"
