Chapter 53: Peter I's Sense of Smell
The confrontation situation in the lower reaches of the Volga looks tense, but in fact, the two sides themselves know what the atmosphere is like now. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because of the relationship between Catalina and Yang Meng, Catalina had already ordered someone to reply to the evil army on the other side, so that they could withdraw immediately, but deal with the Ottoman Empire.
As soon as relations between the two sides improved, the clouds of war lifted.
Yang Meng also ingeniously opened up a water trading field, that is, let the green pothos build three more bridges, so that the two sides can trade on the bridge.
This is undoubtedly very popular with all parties, the fur of the Badguomen is liked by many Han, Kazakhs and Turkuts, and the livestock of the Turks and Kazakhs are also popular with the Badguos who like to eat meat.
The Han people, on the other hand, took out Chinese specialties such as silk, tea, and ceramics, and became the biggest winners of the transaction.
Even Yang Meng himself had nothing to do with getting a distillery, pouring liquor from the mainland and purifying it to make the alcohol concentration higher. However, the favorite of the people of the bad country is this kind of high-concentration liquor, and for a while, the business is also quite good.
The development of commerce has slowly driven the economic development of the capital-Junggar Special Zone-Kazakh steppe-Ural River basin-Volga River basin, and this passage will develop into a new Silk Road in a short time!

Poltava.
Peter I himself went to the front and prepared to crush the Swedish army in one fell swoop, end the Northern War, and thus establish the status of the Bad State in one fell swoop.
The candles were shining and the bunker was illuminated as if it were daylight.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Northern War has been fought for nearly twenty years, and we can't afford to drag it out. This time, we will do our best in one battle, annihilate the main forces of the Swedes in one fell swoop, and establish our position in the Baltic! Peter I began to speak, "the most crucial battle, tomorrow I will personally lead the troops, on the banks of the Wolskla River, there is a vast flat land, I will lead the main force of the Swedes there, and the rest of the work will need to be done by you." Ladies and gentlemen, the future of the Empire lies in the battle of tomorrow! ”
"His Majesty the Tsar is wise! His Majesty the Tsar is wise! His Majesty the Tsar is wise! ”
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the evil army launched a fierce attack on the Swedish army.
The Swedes were naturally not far behind, and the guns were all taken out, and in a counterattack, both sides suffered heavy casualties.
After three days of fighting, the rebels suddenly retreated, leaving corpses in their wake.
When cleaning up the battlefield, Charles XII smiled indifferently: "As expected, the conspiracy of the evil country began. Are our ambushes ready? ”
General Ljungberg said loudly: "Your Majesty, it is ready, if Peter I retreats to the banks of the Volskla River, the mouth of Arras Gorge is the only way to go, and the last general has already sent someone to buy explosives there, and when the time comes, I will guarantee that there will be no bones left!" ”
Charles XII laughed and said, "Very good! Defeat the evil country people this time, we Sweden will become the only big country in Northern Europe, and when the time comes, we will join forces with the Qing country and fight from the east to the west, and the bad country and the Ottomans will become our slaves! ”
"Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! ”
......
The Swedes then pursued and fought for another three days, before the vicious army retreated to the mouth of Arras.
"Your Majesty, the Swedes have been fooled, we should rush to the banks of the Vorskla River overnight, otherwise when the Swedes react, I am afraid it will be difficult to work." The general of the evil army, Hravsky, caught up with Peter I and reported to him.
Peter I nodded, but looked carefully at the mouth of the Arras Gorge.
"The terrain here is dangerous, and if the Swedes set up an ambush again, how should we deal with it?" Peter I asked, with a whip of his horse.
Hravsky said: "Your Majesty, there are our people along the way, how can the Swedes steal here to ambush?" Besides, how could our scouts not notice such a big movement? Your Majesty, don't worry, we will win this battle! ”
Peter I nodded again, but said: "Come on, enter the gorge quickly to investigate, and as soon as there is news, report quickly!" ”
"Yes!"
Although the evil army is very optimistic about the prospects, they still very much agree with the careful actions made by their tsar, and carefully sail the ship of ten thousand years, Peter I the Great, naturally understands this truth.
The scouts of the evil army went for a long time, and not only returned, but also captured a Swedish soldier.
"Report to Your Majesty! There is no ambush ahead. However, a Swedish spy has been caught, please ask Your Majesty to interrogate! Scouts excited to report.
Peter I lashed at the Swedish soldiers, and then asked directly: "Who are you?" What to do here? Where are your troops? ”
The Swedish soldier was whipped and replied tremblingly: "The small one is a Swedish merchant who originally planned to import a batch of fine wine from a bad country and sell it back, but he didn't want to run into a big army fighting, and the small one is really innocent." ”
"Haha, Swedish merchant? What kind of business do you do in this chaos? Say, what the hell do you want to do? If you talk nonsense again, you will not be spared! Peter I whipped again and shouted.
The Swedish soldier fell to his knees in fright and said, "Your Majesty the Tsar spare your life." The younger one was the Danish legionnaire Gavison of the Swedish army, who fled from the battlefield because he hated war, and planned to return to Denmark while the situation was stable, but he did not want to meet His Majesty the Tsar again. ”
"Haha, you dog, this little skill, you dare to deceive our majesty! Say, what's going on? Did you have an ambush? Hravsky asked, too.
Gravison hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is an ambush ahead here, one of my fellow villagers participated in an operation a few days ago, saying that it was to make it impossible for His Majesty to go to the banks of the Wolskla River, what is the specific action, I really don't know if it is small, Your Majesty can send someone to investigate." ”
Peter I stared fiercely at Gavison, who was scared but calm.
"Well, seeing that you are telling the truth, I will spare your life. Lead the way ahead, don't play tricks, otherwise, your life will not be guaranteed. Peter I said.
Gravison hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, how dare you be small? However, after this battle is over, can Your Majesty let go back to Denmark? ”
Hravsky scolded: "You fucking ramble, don't lead the way......"
Peter I raised his hand, stopped Khravsky's words, and said: "Of course, I will not only spare you from death, but also give you some money, and when you return, you will not come out to serve as a soldier." ”
Gravison rejoiced: "Thank you, Your Majesty! ”
Gravison led the way, and the evil army slowly entered the mouth of Arras Gorge.
This place is very dangerous, but there are three forks in the road.
To the left, you can hear the sound of water, to the right, there is a forest, and to the front, there is an open field.
Gavison went straight to the forest, but Peter I suddenly exclaimed: "Slow! ”
