The Eagle of Eastern Europe
Chapter 455 Action
The first thing that happened after the Privy Council was established was the diplomatic situation. There are currently three directions in which Rome will encounter problems.
The first one is the north. Władysław of Poland and Vytautas of Lithuania have been sending envoys to each other frequently recently. After defeating the Teutons, their thoughts turned to the south. Some tribes among the Cossacks are not stable. It seems that Bought by Poland.
The second is the southern region, where the Arabs near the Two Holy Mosques plan to gather together in response to the approaching pagan threat, preparing to recreate the glory of the Arab Conquest period.
The third one is naturally Western Europe. The conflicts between the Anti-Romanian Alliance and the Bartland family have accumulated a lot, and a war will break out at any time.
"The current international situation is very unfavorable to us. Although there is help from several other His Highnesses, they are all too far apart and I am afraid they will not be able to help in a short time."
Foreign Minister Amyntas gave the most pessimistic situation. Rome is currently in a lonely position internationally. If the other party is united, it may take a lot of effort to deal with it.
"Your Excellency is too pessimistic. Not only does our country have the support of Hungary, Moscow and Naples, but the alliance on the opposite side is also torn apart. Bohemia and the Duke of Lower Luxembourg are not dealing with it, and there are also conflicts between England and France. Only Burgundy and Castile Lithuania, Aragon, Poland, and Lithuania are considered the most determined. But they are scattered all over the place, and they are probably unable to work hard. As long as they can withstand the attack of Poland and Lithuania, the empire can launch a counterattack against them."
A member of the Green Party expressed his opinion. He has invested in two vineyards and a workshop in Donetsk. The business is naturally close to Mirceaburg. Of course, he is also aware of the situation in Lithuania. The local production situation was still backward, and the army could only rely on the nobility to provide it. Such a weak situation could just annex large tracts of land for reclamation.
Peter nodded, "Poland has long complained about our country, and they have just defeated the Teutons, so they will definitely take this opportunity to invade our country."
"Also, Burgundy and Aragon will definitely be interested in the city of Rome. The defense here must be careful."
The prime minister guessed the emperor's thoughts, and the empire might start a European war next. You must know that His Majesty attaches great importance to his three younger brothers, and has always targeted Emperor Justinian. In this case, then from Egypt in the east to Aragon in the west are his targets.
"Your Majesty, I think we can attack Poland first. There is no possibility of relief between the two countries. Now we need a war to teach them a lesson and at the same time give them a blow."
Targeting Poland became the mainstream, and those members began to move northward. Especially members of the green faction, the vast land of Ruthenia can make them greedy. Lithuania is really wasting its resources by doing this. It would be better to let the Roman Empire, which pays more attention to the land, to cultivate it.
Of course, paying attention to Poland does not mean giving up defenses in other directions. Negotiations in Syria are ongoing, and the saints in Mecca are struggling because in the southern Yemen region, the Aden colony has set out from Hodeidah to attack other areas of Yemen, and is very tolerant of local heretics and chiefs. Several tribes surrendered to Rome, how could they live?
The Yemen region is short of water, and in order to maximize profits, very few people grow food locally, and most of them grow cash crops such as cotton. Food was transported mainly from within the empire itself, and this was also the case in other colonies. Large amounts of locally produced food can be exported every month. The locally produced food is exported to various colonies through canals, and then shipped back to various cash crops and luxury goods such as cotton and gems.
Mecca is suffering from both sides. The Mamluks cannot rely on it, and Zarayi'er has no strength. It seems that he can only wait for death.
As for the West, because there are too many countries, the conflict between them will definitely be the first. Just help the two younger brothers to contain the West.
----Dividing line----
Stefan has been holding back recently, and he bowed to the Duke of Burgundy and Orleans for the first time. It was obviously satisfying to see the other person bow his head, but the two had disagreements over Salmon's final disposition.
The Duke of Burgundy felt that the root cause should be eradicated and killed Salmon directly. Stefan would not say anything. If he did, he would directly charge him with contempt for the king. The Duke of Orleans felt that it was enough to use Salmon to blackmail the other party. Anyway, he no longer had the position of secretary, so he could just use the last bit of value.
At this time, Bishop Chalon came to smooth things over, saying that if you want God not to be angry, don't go on a killing spree.
Although Bishop Chalon's title ranks second to last among the religious princes, he is also a religious prince, and they, the secular princes, must also respect him.
However, why would Bishop Sharon suddenly intervene here? He doesn't seem to be nosy. Well, the bishop will not tell you that he received a gift of 60,000 crowns from the Duke of Normandy.
Money is still useful in this world, and half of the money and luxury goods that Stefan brought back from Constantinople this time were spent here. Spices, porcelain, tea, etc. were all sent, and there were a lot of them for the bishop. I hope this will be of some use.
The bishop also brought gifts from Stefan to the two of them, including spices, silk, porcelain, tea, gems, cane sugar, and two sincere letters.
The above is how to praise the two great dukes. As a newcomer, I really don't dare to be disrespectful to the two, so these gifts are given to them as apology.
The two of them were also impressed by Stefan's generosity. The value of these gifts was enough to support the lives of all Paris citizens for a year. It seems that Rome is really rich. Since the goal has been achieved, then let it go.
After experiencing hellish days, Salmon finally saw the sunshine. He was suddenly ordered to be taken to prison. He thought his life was lost, but he didn't expect that he was still alive.
"Since I am still alive, then don't think about being able to continue living."
Salmon finally survived, so he will attack those who framed him. It is not for nothing that I have been the Secretary of State for so many years. From the current point of view, the Duke of Normandy can be relied on, so just go to Normandy, and do it quickly, without any hesitation.
After Salmon, the Duke of Burgundy arranged for another secretary, and at the same time reached an agreement with the Duke of Orleans to jointly take charge of the highest power in France.
The war with England became France's top priority, and its resurgence made the Duke of Orleans nervous, so he requested heavy defense in the Gascon region. The situation in the north was left to the Duke of Burgundy. France, which was already loose in the war, was divided into two. I hope he can survive.
