985 Finale
King Louis XIV of France swore that France would never surrender!
Looking back, when he was hiding in the palace, he regretted it countless times, what did he unite with European countries to deal with the Ming army, Cromwell and they could do it if they wanted, why did they want to be the host and seize the leadership of the European Anti-Ming Alliance?
The reason why he wants to be so tough is that the Ming Emperor spoke and did not accept the surrender of France!
Before, the king of Spain surrendered to Princess Catherine of Portugal at the first time, without a trace of hesitation, which made him laugh very much: how stupid it is to surrender impatiently without negotiating conditions!
Even if the Ming army and the vassal army began to fight westward, he did not change this idea.
It wasn't until the Ming army and the vassal armies were attacking like a bamboo, and the countries along the way surrendered one after another, and only the darkness of the night brought the pace of the Ming army to a slight halt, Louis XIV was really panicked.
Those devils in the Ming army have stolen God's weapons, which have legendary power, I'm afraid it's true!
Later, when the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom learned about Spain, he gave Catherine a face and agreed to the surrender of Spain.
Of course, others don't know that Emperor Chongzhen is actually giving Catherine's son a face, after all, he is the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, and just a small place like Portugal is too small. When Spain surrendered to Portugal, it became a principality under Portugal, which, according to the Ming Dynasty, was a province. If you divide some other territories, such as France, it will be in line with the identity of the Ming vassal king.
And the advantage of Philip IV's surrender was that his family was saved. Although he is no longer the king of a country, he still has a knighthood.
By this time, Louis XIV finally regretted it, knowing that he should have surrendered to Princess Catherine as soon as Philip IV did.
But at this time, since it's too late to say anything, there is only death to bear. If you don't surrender, then you will die and see how powerful your stolen God weapon is?
I have to say that there are still many people who think the same way as him. After all, the powerful weapons of the Ming army that I saw with my own eyes were only said by a few soldiers who fled back.
Intuitively, they thought that the Ming army did have powerful weapons, after all, the coalition forces of European countries had been completely wiped out, which was a fact. However, if it is really because the Ming army has this kind of weapon, there is no resistance at all, and they still don't believe it.
What the defeated man said is likely to be exaggerated. After all, the more they praise the enemy, the less culpable they will be for their failure.
In short, for all sorts of reasons, Louis XIV was no longer in a position to control anything outside of Paris in the face of the approaching march of the Ming army, but at least Paris was able to do so.
Thus, Louis XIV can be said to have kidnapped the whole of Paris in a desperate situation.
For example, continue to propagate that the Ming army is the devil, the kind that does all kinds of evil; For example, propaganda for the glory of France is the kind that can be killed and not humiliated. There were only Parisians who died in battle, and there were absolutely no French warriors who lived on their knees.
Before the Ming army reached Paris, Louis XIV began preparations with all his might.
Not to mention, it really has to have a certain effect.
When the army of the Ming vassal state, that is, the army of the Ottoman Empire, appeared outside Paris with pride, he never expected that the Paris army took the initiative to attack and beat the Ottoman army to flee in disarray.
In this way, the morale of Paris is even higher. Even in the previous battle of Warsaw, they doubted the real reason for the defeat.
Finally, the Portuguese and Ming armies, as well as the armies of the vassal states, went to Paris to join forces.
After receiving Catherine and Zheng Zhilong, Emperor Chongzhen was in a farm outside Paris, drinking tea with his ministers, looking at the city of Paris with the gate closed, and lightly instructed his subordinates: "Spread the decree and order the defenders of the city to tie up their king and other nobles within an hour, so that they can avoid death." After the time has passed, I want to die with their king, and I will fulfill them. ”
Zheng Zhilong, who was on the side, listened, and turned his head to look at the artillery positions lined up outside the farm, very curious.
These are the newly invented artillery of the emperor, but I don't know how powerful it is? If only I could see it with my own eyes!
Thinking so, he hoped that the French in Paris would have a little backbone, don't be soft!
In fact, there are quite a few people who think like him. For example, Catherine and his Portuguese, in addition to the servant soldiers of the defeated countries, and so on. Anyone who has not seen it in the Battle of Warsaw always finds the legend a bit strange and wants to see it with his own eyes.
"Your Majesty, the defenders of the city replied that they are proud Frenchmen, and for the glory of France, they will never live on their knees! He also said that if you have the ability, you can enter it! ”
Hearing the return, Emperor Chongzhen smiled faintly, and while motioning to his courtiers to continue drinking tea, he said lightly: "Then meet their requirements and start shelling Paris!" ”
When Zheng Zhilong heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he even secretly used a telescope to observe the situation in Paris in the distance.
This time, I can finally open my eyes.
Emperor Chongzhen's will, after a while, I heard the artillery position start to roar: "Boom, boom, boom, boom......"
At the same time as the smoke of gunpowder rose into the air, the high-spirited defenders of the city of Paris were suddenly blown away. Those who didn't react continued to be blown up. And those who reacted immediately hugged their heads and ran away.
From live ammunition to explosive bombs, and black powder to yellow powder, this is the power I saw for the first time, and I have lost all the glory of France.
The shelling lasted less than a quarter of an hour, and white flags were erected everywhere in the city.
However, the people watching all this did not laugh at them, because at this time, they were all stunned by the power of the Ming army's artillery in their hearts. Among these people, even Zheng Zhilong is included.
The bombardment of Paris once again made people witness the power of the new artillery of the Ming Dynasty. Thus convincingly proves the rumors of the Battle of Warsaw, absolutely without exaggeration.
How can a mortal body resist this kind of weapon that only the Ming army has? It's simply not possible!
The Ming artillery was just a bombardment, and the outcome of the Battle of Paris was already doomed.
Those French warriors, after coming to their senses, rushed into the Palace of Versailles and presented Louis XIV and others to the Ming Emperor.
It was just over an hour before and after the battle of Paris was over.
From now on, there will be no more Lancy in the world!
After this battle, before the Ming army attacked the Netherlands, the remnants of the army there tied up all their nobles.
It's just that the British side is a little more troublesome, and the Ming fleet has to take a trip, send Cromwell's head, and by the way, transport some new artillery to show off their muscles, and then it's gone.
The crushing of science and technology made Emperor Chongzhen's personal expedition this time actually become a tour of the mountains and rivers. The hard work was done by the people of those vassal states, and the Ming army was the town, collecting protection money, and dividing things.
Whether it is the Ottomans or Tsarist Russia, they are very attentive to work, and then wait for the Ming Emperor to give them a little benefit.
By the time Chongzhen was forty years old, the whole of Europe had returned to peace. Britain, the Netherlands, and France have been removed, and most of the others have also been divided, the territory and area of influence have been greatly reduced, and the Ming army is stationed everywhere, and the military expenses are of course provided by the local area.
The Ottoman Empire also expanded westward, and parts of Austria and the Czech Republic became new Ottoman territories; Tsarist Russia also expanded westward, and parts of Sweden and Poland became part of Tsarist Russia's territory. Other daimyo vassal states also benefited from it, but it was just a matter of how much.
Except for the early days of the war, after the chaos of the armies of the Daimyo's vassal states, they were basically relatively harmonious. At this time, the people of Europe realized that the soldiers of the Ming army were not devils at all, how could they do no evil?
Even with their arrival, life is better for ordinary people. The estates of the nobility, the land and everything, were restricted. Even the arrival of the Ming army gave them the opportunity to read for free.
The etiquette culture of the Ming Dynasty has a long history; Daming's poetry and songs are so charming!
Tang poems and Song lyrics, Yuan Quming, are really coquettish!
As a result, the cultural people in Europe began to learn from the East, and the Renaissance came here, turning a big corner, and they were proud of creating poems, songs, and operas.
Of course, these are inseparable from the influence of the Ming Dynasty on Europe.
If people from European countries, including Portugal, want to go to the Ming Dynasty, they must be approved by the military attachés stationed in the Ming Dynasty. And the standard for going to Daming is that Daming thinks you are useful, so he lets you go. Otherwise, there would be no chance to go at all.
Because of the difference in race, no matter who it is, if it goes secretly, the local official can find out if he casually checks it.
Of course, that's all for later.
After occupying the whole of Europe, Emperor Chongzhen took Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou, as well as Zheng Zhilong and a group of old people to tour the mountains and rivers, and saw the scenery of Europe, and finally returned to Beijing by train in the 41st year of Chongzhen.
went back with Emperor Chongzhen, as well as the meritorious soldiers who went out with the car. This expedition, except for a few who died of illness due to water and soil, all returned with honors.
Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou and Zheng Zhilong and other people of the older generation began to write autobiographies, and it is said that these autobiographies of Zhongxing heroes are waiting for many people to read.
Da Ming unbelievably realized ZTE from the most critical moment, and all of this in between, if it wasn't for the parties, it was really unbelievable.
And Emperor Chongzhen also began to write books, but he did not write an autobiography, but began to sort out all the knowledge of later generations in his brain, and also wrote a planning route for the future Ming Dynasty, strictly implemented it, and became the kind of ancestral system.
Politically, he also maintained the basic pattern of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the outer court was governed by the cabinet, and the inner court was supervised by the celebrants, in which the cabinet and the celebrants checked and balanced each other.
Emperor Chongzhen felt that no system is perfect, and the key lies in people. The political system of the Ming Dynasty is already mature. There is also the supervision of the Metropolitan Procuratorate from the local to the central government, and secretly there are Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fan Service re-supervision officials, plus the factory guards can report each other, and all rights can be checked and balanced. That's all there is to it.
After writing down all the scientific and technological and cultural knowledge he knew, Emperor Chongzhen began to travel the mountains and rivers to visit the old ministers in various places. For example, Sun Chuanting in Shanxi, Lu Xiangsheng in Nanzhili and so on. Even if he is not working, the cabinet and the celebrant are running as always. Unless there is something important, it will be left to him to decide. Anyway, he used to drive in person, and he was often not in Beijing.
The years are a knife to kill pigs, and in the end, no one can escape.
Sun Chuanting, Hong Chengchou, Zheng Zhilong and others all passed away one after another, followed by Lu Xiangsheng.
In addition, Emperor Chongzhen knew through the eavesdropping system that he fled to the Americas, and then was captured by the Ming army and the Indians.
At this time, there were few people, facing the harsh environment, struggling for a bite to eat every day, so that they rarely spoke. Later, if it weren't for the automatic translation function of the eavesdropping system, Emperor Chongzhen wouldn't have understood what they were talking about.
After Haoge got older, just before Sun Chuanting and others died of old age, Haoge went out to hunt and finally died in the mouth of the polar bear.
An era is finally coming to an end.
Emperor Chongzhen did not go to various places anymore, but began to retreat. This time, he dictated all the famous science fiction of later generations. The reason why this is so is to let the Ming people open their eyes and let them know what the future may be, and don't just focus on the present.
Underwater monsters, alien creatures, otherworldly fusion, aura revival, etc., there are all kinds of online texts in later generations, and he has seen a lot.
Don't really say it, people in this era, who have heard such a story, are suddenly stupid!
How big does the emperor's brain have to be to come up with such a colorful world?
In this way, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin", and even filming surprises or something, all of them have been thrown into the dust of history by the people of this era. The new books issued by the emperor are the most popular.
It is also because of the popularity of science fiction that people in this era have a strong interest in the ocean and space, and fantasize about one day being able to travel in the ocean and space.
When Emperor Chongzhen was one hundred years old, he finally died without illness. He was succeeded by his great-grandson. There was no way, the crown prince and the eldest grandson were all boiled to death by him.
When he was dying, a prompt popped up in the eavesdropping system: ask the host to choose whether to keep the system or not, select Yes, the eavesdropping system will be retained, and the host will designate the next host; Select No, and the eavesdropping system will always follow the host.
