In order to fight against the Ming army, the Europeans took out all their blood and gathered more than 100,000 troops, including 40,000 French troops led by the Duke of Burgundy in France and 30,000 Teutonic Knights from the German Holy Roman Empire, and even mercenaries from Eastern Europe, Vikings who came to help from Northern Europe.

On the other side of them, the Ming army was able to draw out less than 10,000 people, and of course, there were 30,000 British troops led by the old French enemy, Henry IV.

God, England has sold its soul and made an alliance with the infidels, said a European commander.

At the beginning of December, in the early morning with a light snow, the Battle of Paris began.

The European Allied High Command placed the heavily armored infantry of the French army and the Teutonic Knights in the center to attack the Ming army head-on, using the Eastern European light cavalry as a flank detour.

At sunrise, the Western European coalition forces launched the first offensive.

The armor of the hoplites shone with gold and silver in the morning sun, and from the position of the Ming army, it seemed that the metal earth was moving, and countless spears were like wheat fields on the ground.

The sound of war drums, Scottish bagpipes, Nordic horns, and the rhythmic striking of soldiers striking their cuirasses with the hilts of their swords became clear.

Yang Pingfan told Zheng He about the other party's arrangement in detail, Zheng He listened, looked at the map silently, for a long time, and said softly, "The thirty-second year of Hongwu (that is, the first year of Jianwen, after Zhu Di seized the throne, the year name of his nephew was abolished, and the Jianwen period was all counted as the year name of Hongwu) November, which is also this season, I accompanied the saint in Zhengjiaba, with 80,000 Jingnan troops against Li Jinglong's 500,000 southern army, I didn't expect that ten years later, in the Western Ocean tens of thousands of miles away from the Ming Dynasty, similar things would happen again. ”

After Zheng He finished talking to himself, he chuckled and proposed a strategy, and the three giants of the fleet agreed to this method after discussion.

The Ming army saw the characteristics of the dense and rigid offensive formation of the European army, and concentrated the artillery on the front, and they did not attack for a long time, and after the main force of the European coalition army completely advanced into the range of the artillery, the commander Qi Bin issued an order to carry out an artillery salvo.

In the first three fierce volleys, the European troops suffered heavy casualties, but the attacking formation was not chaotic, and the square team continued to advance on the corpses.

When the enemy's well-organized attacking column was close at hand, Zheng He calmly ordered a fourth, more intense artillery bombardment.

Europeans had the impression that the artillery of this era was very slow, and it took a long time to clean and reload the chamber when fired, so the Allied High Command turned a blind eye to the casualties, and they were sure that this was the last salvo of the Ming army, so they ordered to speed up the attack and try to defeat the Ming army with a single charge.

However, they did not expect that the Shenji Battalion of the Ming Dynasty had invented the three-stage firearm strike technology that was more than 100 years ahead of the entire era, and not only the firearm team, but also the artillery also widely used this method.

Clean loading and firing performed their respective duties, ensuring the continuity of artillery suppression, so when the European coalition launched the last charge two hundred paces away, the hundreds of artillery cannons of the Ming army let out a thunderous roar, raining down shells into the dense column of Europeans.

This time, instead of solid shells, shotguns were fired specifically for close-range killing, and the flying shrapnel hit the armor with a tidal sound.

The armor that looked so gorgeous was almost as papier-mâché in the face of high-speed shrapnel, and the first salvo of shotgun shells swept almost all the hoplites standing at the front were swept over, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

The bloody scene made the formation of the European army chaotic, and the neat phalanx began to deform, and at this moment, the second wave of bombardment by the Ming artillery began, and hiding behind the hoplites were improvised civilians, prisoners and gypsies, who were still wearing ordinary clothes, and even more unprotected, and the shotguns set off a whirlwind of death in the crowd.

The attacking European coalition finally rioted, first with a front row of squares, and then as if dominoes had been toppled, the whole front was in chaos.

Zheng He ordered the Ming army to attack at this time, and the small number of cavalry led by Wang Jinghong attacked the front of the European army in a wedge-shaped formation, cutting deep into the enemy's formation, and soon cut the European infantry line in half, and divided into two teams to begin to outflank the two wings.

At this time, the roundabout Eastern European light cavalry began to attack the side of the Ming army, where the English light cavalry was waiting for the battle, and the two sides collided like two wrestling giants, and the shouts of killing echoed in the wilderness.

On the other side, the European army attacking the flank of the Ming army encountered the fire team arranged there by Zheng He in advance!

In the continuous sound of gunfire, the Eastern European cavalry fell off their horses one by one like wild ducks, and some of the cavalrymen who were lucky enough to bravely rush through the line of fire were greeted by the crossbowmen who were waiting beside the firecrackers.

The crossbowmen of the Ming army, holding the improved repeater crossbow, using the pedal type winding, the upper wind can be fired 3 times in a row, under the crossbow arrows in the sky, the Eastern European cavalry did not even hurt a Ming army, so they left the corpses all over the ground and retreated, and on the way to retreat, they also collided with the allied infantry that broke down from the front, and the men and horses trampled each other, and there were countless casualties.

The battle lasted until dusk, and in the bloody sun, the Ming army sounded their poignant trumpet...... In the Battle of Paris, the Western European coalition army was defeated, half of the 100,000 troops were annihilated, King Charles VI of France was killed on the battlefield, hundreds of dukes and counts and royal generals were killed or captured, and the Eastern European light cavalry and the Teutonic Knights were all annihilated.

After the Battle of Paris, it was difficult for Western Europe to assemble enough forces to deal with the Ming army in a short period of time, and the blockade of the coast of Western Europe, especially the English Channel, by the Ming fleet, made the situation take a sharp turn for the worse.

At the same time, rumors about the follow-up fleet of the Ming Dynasty began to circulate in Western Europe, in order to prevent the anger of the Ming army from burning on their heads, Western European countries sent envoys to the Ming army camp, hoping to reach a settlement, not to pour out the anger on their heads, the Holy See hastily organized the anti-Ming alliance collapsed

The day after the Battle of Paris, Zheng He led 3,000 cavalry into Paris and signed the Treaty of Paris with European monarchs and the Pope of Rome, which directly changed history.

According to the content of the treaty, the European countries recognized the Ming Emperor as the common emperor, the Holy See was not allowed to interfere with the normal operations of the Ming army on the European continent, the Ming people were not bound by the Inquisition in Europe, compensated for all the losses of the Ming army in this military operation, handed over the bishop of the Inquisition who ordered the execution of the envoys, ceded the port of Calais to the Ming Dynasty, and turned it into an anchorage for the Ming army.
