China and her vassals
First major success was against the island nation of Mataram. Besides the difficulty of sending troops over, the low supply made it very hard to assault the medium and small forts. Mataram was reduced to one province, and forced to give China military access. Next time, i will not have the same problems with supporting troops for a siege.
The same happened to Mahra, who is now waiting in line for annexation, along with a bunch of other neighbors of the Chinese Empire.
After losing thousands upon thousands of soldiers in Africa, i decided to make peace while i still had an occupied province. The small cavalry army that was left in enemy teritory on purpose after the peace was signed was used to uncover all the provinces of Zimbabwe. This, along with a better buildup of forces in the area, should be enough for a successful next war against the small pagan country.
Although Constantinople and all the other European holdings of the Ottomans were occupied, with the Treasure Fleet carefully guarding the Bosphorus, warscore was still not high enough to secure a vassalization. So the next obvious target was Alexandria in Egypt.
England and the Netherlands both declared war, but after a month of occupying their American colonies, they were both eager to sign a white peace.
In India, Delhi's unexplainably large forces were pushed back with massive losses, and the Chinese managed to control a narrow strip of land leading from the border to the capital. Delhi the capital is the final target, since warscore is already +99 against the sultanate, thanks to the more than 130 battles won by the Chinese. However, India would continue to be a graveyard for hundreds of thousands of my men.
A war with Spain unfortunately ended in a misclick, where i received the three provinces in Florida, Isthmus in Panama, and very important, Valparaiso. Valparaiso is important because now a border is made with the Inca Empire, and their delcaration of war would give me a large teritory in South America, with some decent gold mines to boost my income.
And as predicted, i don't have to wait long for the DOW. The Incas being pagan, i hope for a speedy campaign ending with their incorporation into Great China.
Even after the fall of Alexandria, i still did not have enough war score against the Ottomans, so i decided to fight their small armies in the area to increase it. I had to hurry, since Wallachia together with other allies were sieging my COT in Aden. Their completion of the siege would be a major setback for my plans, since i did not have a reasonably sized army in the area, and the warscore would diminish considerably. I had to hurry. Also, the truce with Annam expired, and they declared war, together with their allies.
After their capital was taken, the Chagatai hastily make peace, becoming the first of the Chinese vassals.
