480 Ottoman Shot
Richard's troops who defeated 100,000 Afghan army suffered only a dozen losses, one-third of which were non-combat reductions...
It can be said that the entire battle process was when the Soviet Union mobilized soldiers to rush up with Bobosha submachine guns, and then swept the enemy with a range advantage, and the enemy collapsed...
Or occupy favorable terrain and launch a shooting game against an attacking enemy with dozens of times its strength. After repelling a few waves, you will win the battle...
The weapons lethality of the Soviet mobilized troops frightened the minions in the Afghan region. After the humans Pasha were defeated, they were either captured or fled with wealth, and they ignored the orders of the Ottoman Empire's jihad!
However, not all human Pasha in Afghanistan are cowards. Among them, Pasha, who was born and raised by Afghan tribe chiefs, still follows the Ottoman jihad slogan and uses the mountainous terrain to take root tenaciously!
After all the important cities and transportation points in the Afghan region fell, they still did not give up on resistance!
In fact, the resistance of these Afghan tribes has little impact on Richard's rule. However, because these Afghan tribes occupy large mountainous areas, the Red Alert system does not recognize that Richard established a perfect rule in the local area, and does not recognize that Richard has conquered Afghanistan!
This is very uncomfortable...
Once you enter the mountains and fight with the Crescent Cultivators in Afghanistan, due to the unfamiliar terrain, the casualties of the Soviet mobilized troops will increase greatly.
The various traps that the Afghan ministry is good at are enough for the Soviet Union to mobilize soldiers to drink a pot...
What's more, it is difficult to replenish supplies in mountainous areas, and it is difficult to maintain the long-term station of the army.
For this reason, Richard had to send local Afghanistan surrenderers to the mountains to lobby for the Afghan tribes to surrender.
Then Richard learned the true purpose of these Afghan tribes - to maintain independence, not obey any orders from the Ming Kingdom, and not pay any taxes!
In fact, I just want to build my own little kingdom!
Like the toasts from East Asia!
I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail!
At the moment when the 100,000 Afghan army collapsed, the foundation of the Ottoman Empire's rule in the Afghan region collapsed, which gave the Afghan tribal chiefs the opportunity to restore their independence system.
Due to the mountainous and poor transportation conditions in Afghanistan, many Afghan tribes live in places with little contact with the outside world, which gives tribal chiefs the opportunity to establish their own authority.
Even during the Ottoman Empire, these Afghan tribal chiefs only surrendered and paid a certain amount of tribute on the surface. The tribes still managed their tribes based on their own customs and did not look at the laws of the Ottoman Empire at all.
In order to solve this problem, the Ottoman Empire achieved rule by enfeoffing the chiefs of Afghan tribes to human Pasha.
This method is still very good. Human Pasha was equivalent to feudal lords in the Ottoman Empire, and the rights of Afghan tribal chiefs were about the same size as those of Afghan tribal chiefs. Naturally, Afghan tribal chiefs would not object.
However, the Ming Dynasty implemented a centralized system, which made the tribal chiefs in Afghanistan unhappy.
Why should I hand over the wealth and the people I inherited from generation to generation?
The Ming army is very good at fighting, and they have the aura to go into the mountains and valleys to attack us!
Afghans live here for generations, fighting guerrilla warfare without getting lost, and the properties in the mountains are enough to ensure their survival needs.
These Afghan tribes are all savages who are used to hard life. They are wild and cruel in killing. Even if they use simple materials, they can create murder traps!
Richard only carried out a mountain sweep tentatively, losing hundreds of Soviet mobilized troops!
The casualties of the previous battle have increased dozens of times!
This made Richard realize that it is difficult to completely conquer the Afghan region by force alone.
So Richard began to change his previous routine and sent local Afghans to lobby among various tribes.
They wanted to have autonomy, but they could not negotiate without paying taxes, but they had to accept the enthronement of the Ming State and the declaration of recognition of the rule of the Ming State from both outside and inside!
What Richard wants is not the real conquest of the Afghan region, but to gain systematic recognition.
Afghan tribes hide in mountains and valleys, and Richard is even in difficulty in mass murder...
There is no doubt that the conditions given by Richard are even more relaxed than the Ottoman Empire, and they don’t even need taxes!
Even if the Afghan tribes are so poor that they can't squeeze out any oil and water...
As a result, most of the Afghan tribes accepted the invitation from the Ming Dynasty and could live the free life of their kings in the mountains safely, pay tribute to Richard to the outside world, and remain their boss when they were closed.
As for the small group of Afghan tribes who were really loyal to the Ottoman Empire or who did not even want to admit their nominal surrender, they soon surrounded and suppressed them with the cooperation of Richard's Ming army and the Afghan tribes who surrendered.
This is equivalent to Richard hiring those Afghan tribes to fight for himself!
However, this process is very long, and the main reason is the inconvenience of transportation, which leads to the negotiation and employment period between Ming and Afghan tribes, and it takes a long time to enter the mountains to encircle and suppress the enemy.
This has won nearly a year for the Ottoman Empire!
The Ottoman Empire naturally would not waste this year.
When the Ming army was dragged in the Afghanistan region, the dark elves gathered more than 500,000 troops (more than half were peasant soldiers recruited by the local government) in the Balkans.
In just one month, Budapest, the capital of the Hungarian Kingdom, was besieged. Then, with the cooperation of the surrender factions of the Hungarian Kingdom, the Hungarian Kingdom became a vassal of the Ottoman Empire.
The Hungarian army, which was originally fighting against the Ottoman Empire, was transformed into a member of the Ottoman Empire’s army!
The collapse of the Hungarian Kingdom was like a domino. After the Ottoman Empire's military front was transferred, the three countries of the Duchy of Transylvania, the Principal of Moldova, and the Principal of Wallachia were successively labeled as vassals by the Ottoman Empire.
Among these three countries, there were pro-Ottoman factions. After the Ottoman army was approaching, the main war factions experienced a crushing defeat on the battlefield and were unable to recover. The pro-Ottoman factions naturally took over the power and joined the Ottoman Empire's vassal system.
This is not the first time that the three principalities have become vassals of the Ottoman Empire...
As long as the Habsburg family's army was only half of the main force of the Ottoman Empire's western expedition, they did not dare to take the initiative to launch an attack. They were strictly guarding the borders of the Austrian Kingdom, and watched the four countries easily defeated by the Ottoman Empire...
The battle between China and Europe made the Spanish Kingdom, which was ready to jump out and get cheap, immediately timid...
