From Soldier To Emperor - Chapter 493

Naturally, Richard would not conceal the news of his attack on the Mongol Empire from the Ottoman Empire, but was the first to inform the Ottoman Empire of this news!

In order to let the Ottoman Empire put its guard down, it never sent its troops to the border area of ​​Azerbaijan, but has been gathering on the steppe border of the Mongol Empire.

When Richard set off with a grizzly tank, a multi-purpose infantry vehicle and tens of thousands of Soviet mobilizers, the Ottoman empire finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Ming army has dispatched troops. Naturally, it cannot be a strategic deception. Ming is a rather weird military empire, and the core force is only a small group led by Richard himself.

The operation of the country is almost entirely controlled by the cabinet. The emperor, as the supreme power, spends all day fighting outside and never returns to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to sit here…

Such a country looks very strange to outsiders. If any leader of the country does this, it will be completely emptied by the cabinet government!

Don’t think that you can always hold power with soldiers in your hand. If the cabinet really has people with ill-conceived intentions, you can secretly control all the armed forces across the country, and then use the national finances to train a loyal elite to the cabinet government.

In other words, the longer the emperor stays away from the central capital, the lower his control over the country, unless the cabinet holders are loyal and willing to work for the emperor Laozi who is far away…

As far as Ming Dynasty politics is concerned, if the cabinet really wants to rebel, secretly train an elite team, and then mobilize local troops across the country to cut off the frontline Richard’s main logistical assistance, and Richard will immediately lose control of Ming. Control!

At that time, Richard could only fight back with the army, facing the elite troops trained by the cabinet and various local garrisons!

Still without local logistics support!

It can be said that as long as they are not open players, they will undoubtedly lose in the face of this rebellion!

This is also the reason why the emperors of the ancient great powers rarely stayed away from the central government for a long time. Even if it is a personal conquest, it is to take away all the elite soldiers and horses as much as possible, and rush back to regain control of the central government in a not long time.

The emperor may not have much effect in two or three years, but if he does not return to the capital for ten or eight years on an expedition like Richard’s, he can only rely on the loyalty of the cabinet holder…

Because of this, Ming Guo’s political system looks peculiar and unreasonable to outsiders.

Are the five ministers who are substantively in power in the Ming cabinet have no ambitions at all?

Richard is just a hand-off shopkeeper, except for the army under his hand, Richard has not been involved in any political affairs!

Ninety-nine percent of the Ming Dynasty memorials were handled by the five cabinet ministers

Compared to Richard, the cabinet is more like the central government and head of government of Ming.

On the contrary, Richard is like a general conquering abroad…

Of course, the reason why Richard did this is not only because the cabinet leaders are all from the system and absolutely loyal.

And because his conquering battles are all about completing the mission of authority and deciding whether he can live forever, Richard naturally has to personally control the insurance.

What’s more, Richard has an extra sense of security when staying with the system army, and the number of system troops is limited. Richard doesn’t want to stay behind and hear bad news coming from the front!

Not surprisingly, after entering the Central Asian prairie, Richard’s department did not encounter any resistance, and even the herdsmen were not seen!

Under the command of the Centaur, the human herdsmen of the Mongol Empire would naturally not head-on with Richard. The Centaur was not a stuffed bun. The Ming army’s brilliant record was clear to Yemen.

In a regular battle with the Ming army, the drunk centaur generals would not dare to do that!

If you can’t fight regular warfare, it is natural to use the grassland guerrilla warfare that the Mongolian Empire is best at.

Avoiding the truth is the futility, harassing the enemy’s logistics, dragging the enemy out of ammunition and food, and then dispatching the main force to wait for the effort to defeat the enemy.

This is how the Mongol Empire dealt with foreign enemies.

Since ancient times, before the invention of the machine gun tank, there were only two ways to attack and occupy the grassland.

The first is the common use of cavalry to cavalry and nomadic to nomadic in the cold weapon era.

Farming civilization wants to conquer the grasslands, first of all, it must have a strong cavalry to ensure tactical advantages in mobile warfare, and secondly, it is best to recruit some nomadic tribes to serve as vassals.

After a powerful cavalry force defeated or expelled the armies of the hostile steppe peoples, the affiliated steppe tribes immediately occupied the land of fertile water and grass.

In this way, the place where the hostile grassland peoples survive will be lost, and if they want to regain it, they can only fight head-on with a farming and civilized army.

As long as the farming civilization has a strong cavalry corps, it can guarantee the stability of logistics, and it will not suffer a loss in sports warfare!

Therefore, the most important thing in the grassland battle is the cavalry, not one of them!

Even if there are not a large number of affiliated grassland tribes, it is possible to build a large number of military and civilian fortress-style settlements to eat the living space of the grassland tribe a little bit.

As long as there is a superior cavalry regiment, it is enough~www.mtlnovel.com~ The second way is to deal with the steppe people in modern times. There is no need to have a large number of cavalry, but it is also necessary.

The railway was built to the depths of the grassland, the firearms were transported to the front line with the railway’s powerful troop transportation and logistics transportation capabilities, and defense nodes were established along the railway to prevent the grassland people from destroying the railway.

If the railway does not collapse, the frontline troops will be invincible!

Over time, the grassland peoples naturally cannot hold on…

Even if it only builds a little railway and does not actively search for the main battle of the grassland tribe, it can also force the grassland people to migrate or take the initiative to bump into the battle by compressing the living space.

The vast territory of the Russian Empire in Richard’s previous earth history was actually maintained by railway lines.

It’s a pity that Richard now has neither a powerful cavalry nor a railway, so he can only use the simplest and fastest way-tanks…

Well, after the tank came out, the nomads became good at singing and dancing…

No matter how good the horse is, it can’t run on fuel-burning tanks, especially the light fast tank Grizzly!

After the Ming army entered the depths of the grassland, the nomadic cavalry sent out by the Centaur to detect the main force of the Ming army were almost all chased by grizzly tanks and multifunctional infantry vehicles.

As a result, the Mongol Empire, which was supposed to control the vision of the battlefield, suddenly became deaf and blind, and could only rely on the direction from which the scouts sent out did not return to roughly judge the enemy’s position.

However, this method of judging the enemy’s main force by the dead is very unreliable. After all, no one can guarantee whether the scout died on the enemy’s main marching route, or the enemy’s reconnaissance team did not wait to see the enemy’s main force. Kill…
