In the late autumn of the fourth year of Yan Han Xuanhuang (1283), the Han army had basically settled Rostov, but in the Caucasus, the war was in the ascendant; outside Cangmus, the Haidu army came in an in an inclement.
In recent years, due to the rise of Yanhan, there have been many wars at the Eurasian border, which has attracted the attention of many European countries. They were afraid that this would be a new round of "yellow ★ disaster" and attracted their necks to wait and see. However, it seems that the expansion of Yan Han is not as fierce as the Mongol invasion - it took Mongolia to wipe out the East Slavs in just over two months! Moreover, Mongolia used the means of burning, killing and looting, and slaughtered countless cities and villages, causing great panic. Yan Han did not kill innocent people indiscriminately, but also associated with foreign civilizations, and the people of European countries did not mean to panic about Yan Han.
The threat of Mongolia still exists, and the threat of the Turks cannot be ignored. A descendant of the Bulgarian Khanate established by the ancient Western Turks went south to the Balkans and merged with the local Yugoslavs to become a new nation - Bulgarians. Although hundreds of years later, the Turks who invaded Europe were basically assimilated by the locals, there are still a considerable number of Seljuk Turks on the Asia Minor Peninsula adjacent to Europe, which is a force that cannot be ignored.
In addition, the conflict between Muslim Moors and Catholic Europeans continues between southern Europe and North Africa.
In this turbulent era, people of insight from all over the world are trying to make the country strong. The wise monarch conforms to the times, thinks about ways to change, and seizes the opportunity to grow.
At this time in Europe, two monarchs who had a great influence on future generations appeared.
One is Rudolph I, the 26th emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. The emperor's name is well known even in the far East 700 years later - in 1984, Japan launched a top horse that won three championships in a row. This horse is called "Rudolph" and the national audience shouted enthusiastically: "Emperor! Emperor!"
There are many emperors in history. Why is this emperor so famous? Because Rudolph is the first emperor of the Habsburg family, he can be called the founder of the first royal family in European history! Since then, the Habsburg family has been famous all over the world. Its members have repeatedly served as emperors, kings and princes of major European countries. They are the most famous, longest-dominated and most extensive royal family in the history of Europe.
There must be a lot of legendary deeds of such a mountain ancestor?
That's right. First of all, talk about his appearance. Rudolph's appearance is very strange, 2.1 meters tall, but he is a very thin man; a small head is not commensurate with this tall body, but a big round nose is not commensurate with this head!
About his marriage. Rudolph is a complete winner in life and has two beloved wives in his life. The first is Countess Gertrude, who gave birth to a total of nine children; the second is Lori Agnes, who was only 14 years old at the time of marriage, 51 years younger than Rudolph. Their wedding was held last year - 1282, and now Rudolph is young and energetic! In addition, he also has several mistresses. The specific situation is not clear, because Rudolph was the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and crowned by the Catholic Pope himself. It's not good for such a person to be a mistress! The act of mistress is contrary to the doctrine, and it must be kept deeply confidential. However, the paper can't wrap the fire. After all, there is still news leaking - Rudolph gave birth to an illegitimate son named Albert Hetter with his mistress. The name has the same name as Albert, the eldest son of Rudolph and Yuanpei. It can be seen that Rudolf spoils the mistress and equates her child with Yuanpei's child; it can also be seen that the emperor lacks culture and his imagination is exhausted. Isn't there any other good name? How to distinguish between the two children? I have to say that it is the legitimate son Alberhit and the concubine Alberhit.
As for Rudolph's life story, it can't be said for three days and nights. In short, he was the terminator of the "Great Void Period" in the chaotic era of the Holy Roman Empire. As an unknown little count, he strengthened his strength through marriage with his match, defeated the powerful competitor, the Duke of Bohemia, and ascended to the throne. He highly advocated force, fought east and west, and subdued the countries.
The Holy Roman Empire was the first empire of Germany. It was divided for many years, and many dukes, marquises and counts were in separate administration. It is extremely difficult for Rudolph to rise in such an environment, consolidate the throne, enhance the imperial power, gather strength, and fight abroad. You know, his two predecessors, Charles, the 24th emperor, were the younger brother of the British king. Because he could not control a lot of complicated things in Germany, he returned to England as soon as he was crowned; the 25th emperor Alconsol was smarter and simply did not set foot on the land of Germany!
Rudolph faced the difficulties and experienced hundreds of battles, which basically stabilized the Holy Roman Empire. In 1282, Rudolf paced Austria and made his eldest son Albert the Duke of Austria. From then on, Austria was under the rule of the Habsburg family until 1918, when the Austro-Hungarian Empire lost the First World War and disintegrated. As for Rudolf's son-in-beef, Albert, he was also granted the fief of Lewenstein and became a count.
Let's talk about another great monarch. This monarch has a greater influence on European history and even the world than Rudolph I!
...Oh my God! Rudolph I is so fierce that he is not as good as "another monarch"? So what exactly is this "another monarch"? What kind of great achievements have you made?
Let's say... On this day, the cool breeze of late autumn blew all over London, the capital of the Kingdom of England. The Kingdom of England is located on the island of Britain, which is also known as the three islands of England because of the long-term combination of the Kingdom of England, the Kingdom of Scotland and the Prince of Wales (the Prince is the head of state, basically equivalent to the Grand Duchy). The three islands of England have a maritime climate and are affected by the North Atlantic Warm Current, which is much warmer and humid than those in the same dimension.
London is located on the banks of the Thames, with more water vapor and often foggy, known as the "fog capital". As soon as it was hazy, a large group of people raised their torches in the thick fog. They are so emotional that even the fog can't stop them.
This is an extremely serious and imposing petition march. Under the organization of the church and the piety, the participants gathered along the road. Priests, nobles, merchants, craftsmen, farmers... and even beggars gathered together to go to the palace for a common wish. They cursed a name at the same time and shouted to burn him to death.
Who is this person? It is Roger Bacon, a famous scholar who is receiving the hospitality of King Edward I in the royal palace.
Bacon! The great Western scientist in the 13th century was a pioneer of scientific exploration using experimental methods. It has had an extremely far-reaching influence on ending the darkness of the Middle Ages and promoting the world to enter the modern era of scientific prosperity and cultural development. Later philosopher Marx also spoke highly of it: "Bacon is the real ancestor of modern experimental science."
Why is such an outstanding scholar regarded as an eyesore by so many people? It was because he engaged in scientific research and explored the "secrets of God" that caused panic in the church.
Bacon is 70 years old this year. He loves scientific research and is getting older and more persistent. In order to avoid the surveillance and persecution of the church, he had to spread his scientific ideas under the guise of religion and explain the research results as "experience and God's revelation". However, religious people will not give up the charges against him. He was untenable at the University of Paris and returned to England as a professor at his alma mater, Oxford University, becoming more and more low-key. However, rumors about him are still going on.
Legend has it that he has witchcraft and made a bronze head. The copper head can speak, and it can answer any difficult questions in the world.
It is said that he can do magic. A loyal and credible priest testified that Bacon once came to the side of the Dover Strait and drew a rainbow bridge. He went up and disappeared in a short time.
I heard that he created hereticals and bewitched students, which made many good young people crooked and evil ways.
To be precise, he kept carrying out so-called "experiments" in an attempt to discover God's secrets in this terrible way. Once, many people, including several highly valued theological professors, saw it! That day, there was a loud noise, and terrible smoke came out of Bacon's house! And this terrible old madman, regardless of the blood stains on his body, ran out to cheer and shout: "I found it! I found it!"
It can't be tolerated anymore! The behavior of an old madman is a blasphemy against God! How can our loyal believers sit back and watch? However, our majesty was confused and not only did not deal with it harshly, but sheltered the old man! Let's unite and petition together to kill this old idiot before he gets angry! Smash it to death! Step on to death! Hanged! Burn to death! Anyway, he can't die today!
