The situation in Europe has begun to enter a stable period, but no one can guarantee how long it will last.

After experiencing the Renaissance and the Thirty Years' War, Europe has become agitated, and division and reunification are constantly brewing.

Liao Zhongjian wrote a long letter and sent it to the central government, reminding the country to remain vigilant at all times.

Zuo Mengeng has educated everyone long ago.

Chaos and unrest can bring disaster, but they can also bring progress.

In contrast, the empire, which has always been peaceful and stable at home, is likely to be overtaken by Europe.

Only by staying vigilant and proactive can we always stand in the world.

The calm of the troubles in Europe also gave the Wehrmacht an opportunity to concentrate its efforts.

Setate, Morocco.

The National Defense Forces, which consolidated Linpan, finally began to attack.

In Setat, a fierce battle broke out between the Ninth Regiment and Zedan's army.

The Moroccans fought to the death, but to no avail, although they had an army of thirty thousand men.

But the generational difference in weapons and equipment can no longer be made up by the number of people.

The Ninth Regiment successfully captured Setat, and the frontline began to approach Marrakesh.

Zedan was frightened, thinking that the National Defense Forces and Mamun were united.

Of course he was not willing to perish, and hurriedly sent people to contact the Ottoman Empire, hoping to receive support.

Since the beginning of the last century, the Ottoman Empire has entered a period of decline.

Through the development of great navigation, European countries opened up new sea routes, which made it impossible for the Ottoman Empire to make profits in East-West trade.

At the same time, the resistance from various local forces in the Middle East and North Africa also made the Ottoman Empire miserable.

As an empire built on conquests, once it failed to win on the battlefield, the Ottoman Empire naturally began to experience various crises.

Today's Sultan Muhammad IV of the Ottoman Empire is very worried about this and thinking about how to break the situation.

Without the emergence of the empire, in more than twenty years, the Ottoman Empire would launch the Battle of Vienna to conquer Europe. However, it would be beaten to a bloody head and would never be able to compete with European countries again.

But now, Zedan's request for help gave him another hope.

Compared with Europe, which is obviously getting stronger, North Africa seems to be a soft persimmon that can be handled better.

Of all the regions in the world today, the Ottoman Empire has the least contact with the empire and the least understanding of it.

As a result, it became a soft persimmon in the eyes of the Ottoman Empire.

Mohammed IV immediately ordered Timar Ittihad Moises, who was stationed in Algeria, to send troops to assist Zedan.

After learning that the Ottoman Empire had joined the war, the Ninth Regiment did not dare to neglect and quickly reported to the superiors.

The ocean-going fleet in Portugal returned immediately.

It's great to make arrangements.

While reinforcing all the infantry to the ninth regiment, he sent the fourth detachment into the Mediterranean and raided Tunisia.

This was the center of the Ottoman Empire's rule in North Africa, with prosperous commerce, a very important geographical location, and a threat to the Mediterranean.

A fierce battle broke out between the two navies off the coast of Tunisia.

But the results can be imagined.

The Ottoman Empire's navy was quite inferior to that of European countries. It was unable to resist the more advanced Imperial Navy.

The Ottomans on the shore watched helplessly as the warships were beaten to pieces and fell apart, and balls of flames shot up. They were all frightened.

After defeating the Ottoman Navy, the Fourth Detachment used incendiary rockets against the city of Tunis, completely destroying the famous city.

This was clearly a warning to the Ottoman Empire, letting it see the power of the empire and not interfere in Morocco's affairs.

But the Ottoman Empire was used to being domineering, especially in the Middle East, where it was a veritable hegemon. How could it have experienced this?

Mohammed IV was furious when he learned about the situation and quickly assembled a large number of troops to aid North Africa.

When they learned that an army of 500,000 was about to arrive, both Shang Ke and Xu Erjue knew that the ocean fleet and the ninth regiment alone could not cope with it.

After all, no matter how powerful the ocean-going fleet is, it cannot land!

Liao Zhongjian took quick action and traveled to various European countries to encourage them to send troops.

If it were something else, European countries would definitely sit back and watch, waiting to see the empire and its enemies fight to the death. They might even be able to trick the empire.

But since it is the Ottoman Empire, the Europeans are too active.

The hatred between the two sides has been accumulated for thousands of years, and the Ottoman Empire's threat to Europe is also real.

To this day, large areas of Eastern Europe are still in the hands of the Ottoman Empire.

Otherwise, how could the Ottomans launch the Battle of Vienna?

Europeans dreamed of destroying the Ottoman Empire and retaking Constantinople.

That dreamy Eastern Roman Empire!

The war with the Ottoman Empire originally started, and everyone in Europe had a shadow in their hearts.

There have been several Crusades, but what are the results?

Constantinople still couldn't get it back.

After so many years, this obsession has actually faded away among Europeans.

But this is different, the empire takes the lead!

How powerful the empire was, the Europeans had seen with their own eyes.

Because the empire was causing trouble in Europe, many European politicians were worried behind the scenes and felt that there was a crisis in Europe.

As a result, the empire is now willing to help Europe deal with the Ottoman Empire...

That’s okay!

No matter who it is, as long as they fight against the Ottoman Empire, they are friends of Europe.

Everything was fine at first, but things changed suddenly in the blink of an eye.

Russian missions suddenly appeared in various countries.

The purpose is simple. Faced with the empire's aggression, they are looking for allies.

After Gudnov returned to Moscow, he learned what he had seen. For the first time, the Russians, who understood the power of the country, finally realized that they were in trouble.

The thought that all the land developed over hundreds of years might be lost makes Russia feel numb.

Land, that is the lifeblood of Russia.

In order to expand their territory, they would do anything.

Now, in order to protect their territory, they will do anything.

Russia's judgment is very clear, and they know that Russia alone may not be able to defeat the empire.

After all, what the National Defense Force showed was too shocking and completely beyond their understanding.

Especially today, Russia is extremely unstable internally. Once it cannot defeat the empire externally, it will become a disaster.

The Russians quickly decided to look for allies in Europe.

They came up with a word that everyone in Europe was talking about.

【The Yellow Peril is coming! 】

For Europeans, these four words can definitely stop crying.

After all, the disaster caused by the Mongols to Europe was so unforgettable that they almost wiped out Europe.

Even if the Mongols withdrew later, the Black Death came out, which greatly damaged the vitality of Europe.

Compared with the Mongols, the Ottoman Empire was the Karami.

Western European countries such as the Netherlands, Portugal, and the United Kingdom are doing fine, but those Eastern European countries are all shaken.
