Chapter 1006: Attack on Paris (3)
At the same time, the Ming army descended on Europe, and the news of the attack on France has also spread to various countries, causing the shock and panic of the whole European big 6. Nature
After two naval battles, the Ming Dynasty seized a large number of colonies of the five major sea powers, and ninety-six steel battleships descended on Europe, destroying a large number of ports and coastal cities in the coastal countries of Europe, bringing great disasters to Europe.
Last time, although the Ming fleet appeared in Europe and bombarded the coasts of various countries, there was no Ming army on the 6 European 6, but this time it was different, the Ming fleet not only came again, but also brought the 6th army, which was attacking France.
The Ming army's attack on France caused panic in all the countries of the Great 6 in Europe, and they were afraid that the Ming Dynasty was not coming to occupy Europe.
Under such nightmarish fear, the kings of various countries frantically gathered their own armies, as if desperate to help France resist the invasion of the Ming army.
Some countries may have enmity with France, but the Ming army landed 6 European 6 and attacked France, but European countries felt a fear and chill in their hearts, they were afraid that the Ming Dynasty was coming to occupy the entire European 6, and under this common crisis, all countries had to let go of any hatred.
However, the fear of various countries has just risen, and another news has come again, the Ming army came to Europe this time, completely because of France's own mistakes, intending to steal the advanced technology of the Ming Dynasty through secret means, violating the bottom line of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army is here to punish France, not to destroy the European 6.
This news undoubtedly made all countries breathe a sigh of relief.
The kings of the countries who originally planned to send their ** team to help France at all costs also hesitated, since the Ming army was only coming to France, and it was France's own crime, did they still need to help France desperately, you know, once they helped France, they would become the enemy of the Ming Dynasty and be attacked by the Ming army.
After some consideration, after all, no country helped France to resist the Ming army, of course, the assembled army, all countries were not dismissed, but all sent to the border, once the Ming army is not as the Ming army said, just punish France, they still have to desperately rescue France.
The wait-and-see attitude of various countries made the King of France very annoyed, but he didn't care anymore, because when the Ming army captured the fourth castle, he already knew the number of the Ming army, only 30,000 soldiers, and he was very confident that his French army would definitely be able to defeat the Ming army.
Of course, self-confidence is one thing, the king of France is not stupid, the strength of the Ming army is recognized, the French army can dispatch 200,000 soldiers, but it takes time to dispatch, he has to mobilize enough French soldiers, and finally in the final battle with the Ming army at the castle of Versailles, which is closest to Paris, and all the Ming soldiers are sent to God to repent in one fell swoop!
The King of France was confident, but the French soldiers at the front were full of despair and fear.
"Boom! Rumble! Boom ----" A group of nearly 1,000 French soldiers continued to rout towards Versailles under continuous artillery fire, and from time to time French soldiers who were fleeing were killed by Ming artillery shells.
They were a garrison at the mouth of a fortress, although there were nearly two thousand soldiers, but they were defeated under the first wave of attack by the Ming army, and the Ming army was too strong to be a nightmare.
"Dadada----"
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! "Two or three hundred meters behind them, a large number of Ming soldiers chased after them and fired fiercely at the French soldiers who fled in front, and a large number of French soldiers were shot and killed in the rout.
Under the boundless fear, the French soldiers were defeated even faster, wishing that they could give birth to two more legs.
By the time the remnants of the French soldiers fled into Versailles, the Ming army had already arrived at Versailles.
"Big brother, it is said that there are 200,000 French soldiers in the castle of Versailles." Feng Houdun said to Yan Yingyuan with a smile.
"With France's national strength, it is already their limit to be able to gather 200,000 soldiers in a war, as long as these 200,000 French troops are annihilated, France will collapse without a fight!" Yan Yingyuan said.
The news that there were 200,000 French soldiers gathered in Versailles, they still learned from the French, but neither Yan Yingyuan nor other Ming soldiers took it to heart, or did not take these 200,000 French soldiers into account.
By now, Daming Zhan has taken too far in terms of weapons, and it is not at all a few times, or more than ten times that the army can be defeated by relying on crowd tactics.
Under the city of Versailles, the Ming army arranged its troops and built artillery camp positions to prepare for the attack.
Inside the city, the French soldiers looked terrified.
Those French troops who were defeated into Versailles, because they saw the strength of the Ming army with their own eyes, and were chased all the way to Versailles by the Ming army, they were extremely afraid of the Ming army, under their unintentional 'propaganda', and the strength of the Ming Dynasty had been deeply rooted in their hearts, the French soldiers in the city were full of panic and low morale.
"God will bless us France, the Ming army that invaded France will be punished by God, and the victory belongs to us France!" The French commander stood up and confidently spoke to the French soldiers in Versailles, hoping to boost their morale.
"God forbid! Defeat the invading Ming army! ”
"God forbid!"
-----------------------
Because of faith, God was extremely sacred in the eyes of all French soldiers, and they believed that as long as God blessed, the Ming army would not be their opponent, and victory would be theirs.
After some encouragement, the morale of the 200,000 French soldiers in Versailles was somewhat restored.
After the disappearance of the three, the Ming army completed all preparations for the offensive.
"Fire!"
"Boom! Rumble! Boom -----" two hundred field cannons fired a salvo at the city of Versailles, instantly turning Versailles into a sea of fire.
The French artillery in Versailles also fired back, but the range of the French artillery was too poor, the power of the shells was also low, and the shooting was even worse, even if there were more than 300 guns, but it could not be the opponent of the Ming artillery.
In less than an hour, the French artillery of the counterattack was completely destroyed.
Without the containment of artillery, the power of the Ming artillery fire was stretched to the limit, and the buildings in the castle of Versailles and the French soldiers were violently bombarded, and the French soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
"Boom!" After less than two hours of bombardment, the protective walls of the Château de Versailles were blown down.
"Attack!" The Ming army then launched an attack on Versailles.
