What is politics?

Politics is when others die for you, remember to erect a monument for others, and then spread it to future generations, so that everyone knows that those who die for you can live forever.

In this way, there will be a continuous stream of people willing to die for you and praise your rule!

This is what Levi is doing now.

After he legitimized the Greek region, he migrated there to the civilians from all over the Balkans under the name of increasing the population of the Greek nation.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that when the Balkan ethnic groups poured into the Greek Peninsula, the Balkan ethnic groups, which may even have different languages, will completely destroy the Greek nation in history, not to mention the Livi government behind the scenes.

Perhaps the city of Istanbul is of great significance in history. After the Battle of Istanbul, the Ottoman Empire did not surrender and seek peace, and Livi was still rewarded by the total war system.

Added a full 100 glory points!

In the entire battle, Li Wei lost only about a thousand brainwashed soldiers, but was still lost when he pacified the Greek mutiny.

It is no exaggeration to say that the victory of the Battle of Istanbul was fought by the Greek Corps and the vassals. The biggest role of the 12th Legion led by Carl is to guard the fruits of victory and serve as a deterrent team.

Of course, after the Battle of Istanbul, under the propaganda of other continental countries led by Britain, the entire Europe and even West Asia knew how cruel the Levi government's army was to the vassal vassal army!

The way to supervise the war is to massacre in an established manner!

And this news is spreading to Central Asia and the Americas.

This is the benefit of grasping the power of public opinion. Due to the limitation of sea power, the Li Wei government can only control public opinion on its own territory.

Li Wei invested all these hundred glory points into the guard infantry, and the total number of guard infantry jumped to 464,000!

Moreover, the newly expanded troops all come from the Germanic people. After all, the Central European region is densely populated, and there are many scumbags such as mercenaries who have lost their jobs and gangsters who want to earn military expenses.

In addition, the Li Wei government also adopts an incorporation attitude towards illegal people in the ruling region, raising them first on weekdays, and brainwashing training will be carried out when needed.

Of course, the young and strong among the illegal people were selected.

Choosing this kind of people will not have too many adverse effects on social production within the ruling area. As for the Ottoman prisoners of war, they have basically become labor coolies.

Although there was no slavery under the rule of the Li Wei government, it had never been short of slaves. However, these slaves were subordinate to the government and were managed in a centralized manner.

Mainly engaged in heavy physical labor and farming.

The collective farm developed by the Li Wei government is famous in Europe.

Of course, there are doubts both at home and abroad, and the reason why the collective farm under the Li Wei government's leadership harvest is good is that a large number of corpses have been buried as fertilizer.

Collective farms do have the act of burying slaves who do not "abid the law" into the soil as fertilizer, but they have absolutely nothing to do with "large amounts".

If people were really used as fertilizer, how could the Li Wei government have so many labor slaves?

After the Battle of Istanbul, although the Ottoman Empire and the Holy Alliance were still in a state of war, the military conflict between the two sides came to an end.

The Ottoman Empire Sultan was busy licking his wounds and training new troops, while the Levi government was busy with the reconstruction of the Roman Empire and the ascension of Levi.

Of course, Levi's so ignorance of the Ottoman Empire's war threat is also closely related to the heavy losses of the Ottoman Empire.

In the Battle of Istanbul, the Ottoman Empire had already put out all its strength and was still defeated, and it was a disastrous defeat without any suspense. Losing the Ottoman Empire, which became even weaker in Istanbul, naturally would not pose a threat to the Levi government.

In order to make the Roman Empire well deserved, Li Wei chose to hold the throne ceremony in the former Istanbul city where the name of Constantinople was restored.

At this moment, Li Wei had to thank the Istanbul defenders of the Ottoman Empire. It was the early surrender of the Istanbul defenders that the palace and core areas of Istanbul were not damaged by too much war. Unlike the outer and inner cities, there were no few intact houses...

In early January 1805, Levi ascended the throne in Constantinople (formerly Istanbul), and was called the Roman Emperor!

In Europe, Rome is the orthodox!

The rulers of the Holy Alliance Empire are qualified to call him emperor because they have the word "Rome".

The Napoleon Emperor in the history of Li Wei's previous life was not actually recognized by European countries at that time, and Napoleon's legal principle of becoming emperor was only "democratic election", not Roman orthodox.

Even though Napoleon had always wanted to make himself Roman orthodox, he did not hesitate to kidnap the Pope for this.

Of course, orthodoxy requires strong national strength to support it. When the Holy Roman Empire collapsed, Franz was able to quickly establish the Austrian Empire and replace it, and was recognized because of national strength.

and inherited the legal system of the Holy Roman Empire.

Li Wei has already achieved national strength, and four anti-French wars have long been confirmed. Now Li Wei is naturally qualified to steal the title of Roman orthodox, even half of Europe is opposing him!

If the territory occupied by Li Wei was not large enough, it would probably be the whole of Europe to oppose him...

After Livi ascended the throne, he immediately cleared his brainwashing army again and established the Roman Empire Guards.

The Thirteenth Legion belongs to the Imperial Guards, and the military flag is still the Black Dragon.

However, the flag of the Levi government was changed to the former double-headed eagle of the Roman Empire.

The Black Dragon Army Flag represents the glorious heritage established by Li Wei when he started his family, while the double-headed eagle flag represents the Roman orthodox.

Of course, whether it is the military flag or the national flag, to put it bluntly, it is for others to see.

In essence, there is no difference.

After the establishment of the Imperial Guards, the functions and military system of the Thirteenth Legion did not change.

The French Legion still undertakes defenses in various places, and the remaining 12 Legion is on standby as field troops.

The title of Roman Emperor was added to Livi's title. The French Empire was demoted to the Kingdom of France, and Livi's title in the French region was also changed to the King of France.

After all, there can only be one emperor's name.

At the end of the title, a protector of the Greek Governor's District was added.

In this way, Levi's title became more abundant:

The Emperor of the Roman Empire

King of the Kingdom of France

The lords of the Piedmont and Savoy areas (these two pieces of land were not traditional French territory, but were later annexed through war of aggression)

King of the Kingdom of Italy

Arbitrators of the Swiss Federation

Protectors of Low Countries (low Countries refer to the Kingdom of Belgium and the Kingdom of the Netherlands)

Rulers of all provinces, territories, municipalities in the Rhine League

Kings of the Kingdom of Austria (including the crown territory of the former Austrian Empire, Bohemia, Moravia, Croatia, Czech and Slovakia, etc.)

King of the Kingdom of Hungary

King of Romania (annexed Transylvania region)

King of the Kingdom of Serbia

King of the Kingdom of Bulgaria

Conqueror of the Balkans

Protectors of the Greece Governor's District (including the Greek Peninsula and Constantinople)

Levi's political show was done in a good manner, and the former Istanbul area and the current Constantinople area were included in the Greek Governor's District.

Of course, this is only nominal. Aristotle, who was demoted from the President of the Greek Republic to the Greece Governor, still could only govern the Greek Peninsula, and the Constantinople area was directly ruled by the cabinet of the Levi government.

It is considered to be a special administrative region.

After all, the status and political significance of this European bridgehead are too important.

Levi's Roman emperor rule mainly came from the occupation of the Roman city and Constantinople in Italy.

The legal system is still useful in Europe, at least in pacifying public opinion.

After the establishment of the Roman Empire, the Levi government did not continue to pursue the Ottoman Empire in a rare manner.

Of course, continental countries believe that this is because the Levi government dares not use a large number of naval ships to carry out landing wars in Asia Minor and North Africa.

If the Levi government loaded a large number of elite troops into warships and was blocked by the British Royal Navy, it would be a lot of fun.

On land, Britain cannot confront Levi's government, but on sea, no country is the opponent of Britain and the United Kingdom of Ireland.

Even if Levi had to face only the Mediterranean squadron of the Royal British Navy.

However, the Levi government, which established the Roman Empire, was constantly reducing the gap with the Royal British Navy on the ocean.

For example, collect and supervise a large number of warships.

The countries and regions conquered by Li Wei, as well as naval ships, were also taken into account by the Li Wei government. Perhaps there were not many warships in a single country and region, but all the navy in the conquered areas still had a good number.

Especially the French fleet, before the establishment of the Roman Empire, received sufficient funding and maintenance. Many warships had set sail again and were equipped with enough sailors.

However, due to the fleet quality issues, Levi did not consume glory value on the navy.

Li Wei has calculated the calculations and annihilated a thousand brainwashing troops on land, the enemy will pay several or even dozens of times the price.

However, if you sink a warship that is supervised and trained in a comprehensive war system on the ocean, the Royal Navy will need at most two or three times the warships of the same level.

If it is a battleship of a higher level, it can be easily crushed.

The reason is very simple. The battle on the ocean is not a hand-to-hand battle. No matter how loyal and brave the soldiers are, can you still swim on an enemy warship?

Nowadays, it is the era of giant cannon ships. The first-class battleships of the British are like sea fortresses. Even if ordinary warships lean on them, they are difficult to climb!

Therefore, the navy in this era mainly competes in the mass of warships and the caliber of artillery!
