Chapter 792: Dead?

Along with the intelligence, there were several newspapers from the European barbarian countries.

The "Di Bao" thing appeared the earliest, but the European barbarians were not too bad, and it took about a century for the Roman Empire to produce the "Daily Chronicle".

The "Daily Chronicle" produced by the Roman Empire is a wooden plaque set up at the entrance of the Roman Senate, which is used to release the latest decisions of the Senate to the general public of Rome, which is roughly equivalent to the proclamation of the Central Plains Dynasty.

This ancient form of newspaper naturally did not keep up with the times, and after the "Daming Semi-Monthly" and "Daming Weekly" were brought into Europe, the barbarians of Europa instantly discovered a new world.

It turns out that the announcement can still be played like this? It turns out that advertising can still be played like this?

In an era when there was no copyright law at all, the European barbarians were also very enthusiastic about the cause of copycats - otherwise, how did the German manufacturing that was blown to the sky come to be?

Now in front of Emperor Chongzhen are the "French Weekly", "England Weekly", "Holy Rome Weekly", and a "Holy See Monthly" that have been copied out.

In short, these newspapers are completely copycat versions of "Daming Weekly", and the blue is better than the blue, and the number of advertisements on them is much more than the number of texts, and even the genuine "Daming Weekly" is a little out of reach.

Of course, the other copycat newspapers in this are nothing, nothing more than a few words of pressure on the Ming Dynasty's expedition to England, and then comment on what kind of consequences this will cause.

What really made Emperor Chongzhen laugh was the "French Weekly".

Emperor Chongzhen always thought that France was romantic, although the later generations of France belonged to the most non-existent among the five hooligans, but after all, they were one of the five major mobile arms dealers, and no one dared to underestimate them in the whole world.

However, Emperor Chongzhen never thought that these romantic French would actually play such a funny thing.

"The demon from the mysterious East is approaching England with his cannibalistic army, and we can only pray for the English gentlemen now."

"The Ming Emperor has taken his army to the Isle of Wight, which was formerly part of England, and the territory of the Ming Empire after being occupied by them, Xinhua Island, and they are about to wage war against England."

"The great Ming Emperor with his invincible army launched an attack on the English savages, let us look forward to another great victory of the Ming Emperor, France welcomes His Majesty the Holy and Invincible Emperor Ming to France as a guest!"

After casually throwing aside these translated copies of the "French Weekly", Emperor Chongzhen pointed to the weekly newspaper with a smile and said: "Look, the Ming before the attack was a man-eating demon, when the Ming launched an offensive formation, it was invincible, and when the attack began, it became great and sacred." ”

Zhang Zhiji nodded approvingly and said, "These wilderness people don't know etiquette, how can they know what is called hanging people?" However, these weekly reports can be regarded as saving us a lot of trouble. ”

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen motioned for himself to continue, Zhang Zhiji smiled and said: "Just their weekly report last week is enough to be worthy of the crime of destroying the country, but it is not appropriate for the officers and soldiers in the army to know about it now." ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "Then ignore them for the time being." ”

Zhang Zhiji has long passed the age of enthusiasm, and Emperor Chongzhen is no longer young, so naturally he will not go directly to attack France because of a mere sentence.

Because there is no way to maximize the benefits of the Ming Dynasty by attacking France now, it is better to put it aside first, save this weekly report, and take it out when it can be used in the future.

The ability to keep a small black account has been passed down from generation to generation in the Central Plains since ancient times, how can you forget it?

The reason why it is not appropriate to let the officers and soldiers in the army know now is that the biggest one is related to the image of Emperor Chongzhen in the army.

Emperor Chongzhen has never lost a battle!

Don't care whether Emperor Chongzhen relies on numerical superiority or equipment superiority, and doesn't care what wild tricks Emperor Chongzhen uses, in short, since Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, Emperor Chongzhen himself has never lost a battle, and even the army of the Ming Dynasty rarely loses a battle.

Fighting a war will kill people, and following an emperor who often wins and is undefeated is obviously more reliable than following an emperor who always loses battles.

In addition, those eunuchs sent out by the palace, under the brainwashing day after day, the army all regarded Emperor Chongzhen as a god, if these Qiu Ba knew that someone said that Emperor Chongzhen was a demon in the newspaper, then the consequences could be imagined.

It's not good, he was praised too high, and Emperor Chongzhen, who was already riding a tiger, had to use troops against France because of this.

is still the same sentence, the current Da Ming can fight whoever he wants, anyway, whoever is the five scum of the war, and it will be over!

However, before fighting, you have to take a look at what benefits to Daming?

It doesn't matter if you do England, but if you do France again, then it's really a big deal.

Because the enemies of the Ming Dynasty were everywhere in Europe, such as Spain.

The only allies are the Holy See and the Holy Roman Empire.

However, the fuck thing is that although Spain is one of the most loyal doglegs of the Holy See, God's render to God, Caesar's to Caesar's, and if given the opportunity, Spain will definitely not mind joining forces with all the countries of Europe to fight against the Ming Dynasty.

As for the Holy Roman Empire, let's count the ball, this thing hasn't wiped off his butt yet, and it all depends on Da Ming to continuously provide him with equipment to survive, otherwise the game would have been finished a long time ago.

After picking up another piece of information, Emperor Chongzhen sighed in surprise, and then signaled Wang Chengen to hand the information to Zhang Zhiji and others before he spoke: "Look at this information, what do you think of Aiqing?" ”

Zhang Zhiji took the information and looked at it over and over for a long time before handing it to the person next to him, and then bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the requests of Ferdinand III and Innocent X can be agreed, just so that they can see the prosperity of my Ming Empire!" ”

As a cabinet assistant minister who was brought out, Ma Shiying also bowed down and said: "The minister thinks that what the British public said is extremely true, that the Holy See and the Roman Empire are both barbarians, afraid of prestige but not virtuous. ”

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "What if it has the opposite effect?" What if the Holy See and the Roman Empire were afraid of our Ming Dynasty and united with the countries of Europa to make a dilemma for our Ming Dynasty? ”

Zhang Zhiji said without hesitation: "Then fight!" My three major fleets of the Ming Dynasty are all here, even if the barbarians of Europa are gathered in one place, it will only save me the time for the Ming Dynasty to break each one, but it can be broken in one fell swoop! ”

Ma Shiying objected: "Ridiculous! Allowing him to come to watch the army is just to deter his courage and collect his heart, if he attracts all the barbarians to join forces, even if I can break it in one fell swoop, I can't do it! ”

When Emperor Chongzhen heard Ma Shiying's meaning, it was obvious that it was okay to scare people, but if he scared people too much, he had to appease and appease them?

Emperor Chongzhen, who was a little confused in his heart, immediately spoke: "Ma Aiqing will tell me in detail. ”

Ma Shiying bowed in response, and continued: "The barbarians of Europa are just a plate of loose sand, so there is nothing to worry about. The one who was concerned about him was Uthman.

If the Ottomans are determined to be the enemy of our Ming Dynasty, their country does not even need to send many horsemen, only tens of thousands of people are needed to cut off the Suez Canal channel, where should the supply of our three major fleets come from?

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are gathered here, if the Suez Canal channel is lost, then all the supplies of my Ming Dynasty need to go to the Cape of Good Hope in the south of West Kunlun and then be transported to Europa, how much does it cost? What are the risks? ”

Zhang Zhiji sneered: "Elder Ma Ge is inevitably too careful. As you said just now, the Barbarians of Europa are just a plate of loose sand, and even if the Barbarians are allowed to join forces together, it is just a disagreement.

Besides, the supply of supplies for my Ming Dynasty has become a problem, and where do the cannons and muskets in the hands of those barbarians come from? At that time, the barbarians will also lose supplies, but they will return to the time of fighting each other's swords.

As for the Ottomans uniting with the European barbarians, did Marco really think it was feasible? Don't forget, one of them believes in the true God, and the other believes in God, how can the two be united when they are incompatible? ”

Ma Shiying brushed his sleeves and snorted coldly: "What if? Who bears the risk of this eventuality? If Your Majesty is not here, you will be able to afford the high power of the British Public, but then Your Majesty is here, if the shipping channel is broken, will you bear the responsibility of the British Princess? ”

After Zhang Zhiji snorted coldly, he did not open his mouth again to object.

From a personal point of view, Zhang Zhiji can completely spray Ma Shiying to death with a mouthful of salt soda - what are you a soldier of the Ming Empire?

The barbarians of Europa all add up, and then count the Ottomans together, and then add the Mughals, so what?

It's certain that it can cause some trouble to the expeditionary fleet, but the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can still press them to the ground and rub them, and finally make them kneel and call Dad!

However, Ma Shiying, this old thing is really not a thing, debate is debate, okay, what are you doing with Emperor Chongzhen? Throwing such a big killer weapon when you come up, how can you argue about it?

Even if the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have the ability to put Europa plus Mughal plus Ottoman in eighteen postures, now that Emperor Chongzhen is here himself, no one dares to take this risk!

Zhang Zhiji, who was extremely painful, suddenly couldn't debate with Ma Shiying anymore, so he simply snorted coldly: "Then I don't know what Elder Ma Ge has?" ”

Ma Shiying ignored Zhang Zhiji's provocation, but bowed directly to Emperor Chongzhen and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Your Majesty, the Holy Roman Emperor and the Pope will hunt Xinhua Island, and it is not inappropriate to lead the two of them to visit my Ming Army."

It's just that he doesn't need to pick the best part to show them, he just needs to let the two of them see the ordinary soldiers lining up to attack, so as not to be frightened out of their courage. ”

Emperor Chongzhen's mood suddenly became not beautiful.

Those two guys are here, and instead of showing them the most awesome performance of the Ming army, they want to pick some not very good ones to show them? What is the rationale for this? If you don't pretend to be forced during the military parade, when will you pretend to be forced?

What's the point of an unequipped life? I Chongzhen has always been reckless in his life, so why should I look at the courage of others?

Emperor Chongzhen, who was unhappy in his heart, rubbed his forehead and said: "Let them see, since you want to show them, you must let them see the best army performance, as well as the best weapons and equipment."

As for Ma Aiqing's worries, it is not unreasonable, but in my opinion, as long as I sell these weapons and equipment to them, all problems will no longer exist. ”

Don't you see, why are the eagle sauces of later generations so keen on fighting? Is it really just to train the army?

Don't be stupid, exercising the army's actual combat ability is only one aspect, and the other more important reason is to show the world their weapons and equipment, and then summon those stupid and rich dogs.

For example, a large dog in a certain powder keg area has always been not bad for money.

At the beginning, in order to buy two kicks from the rabbit's house, a zero was added to the number, and the unit was changed from RMB to green coins, as long as the equipment was good enough and luxurious, money was never a problem.

Let the soldiers know about the air conditioning in the tank? Prepare red wine for the soldiers in the tank to find out? When the soldier is 8 in the morning and 5 in the morning, take two days off and annual leave to understand?

The eagle sauce of later generations can play like this, and Emperor Chongzhen can naturally play like this, because Osman is the ancestor of those big dogs......

As for the Holy Roman Empire, another subject to change, it is not a problem.

Now those scum scum do not have the appearance of the FΓΌhrer, a ruthless man, Ferdinand III, a passionate species who loves the country and loves beauty more, is fed up with the anger of the European vassal states, and if the Holy Roman Empire can get enough and good equipment from the Ming Dynasty, they are not in the mood to get together with the various vassal states in Europe.

The truth is just as Emperor Chongzhen predicted.

Innocent X was clearly not very interested in such a thing as war.

Silver coins for white flowers are not good? Selling indulgences to fool fools is not a good thing, preaching and fooling fools is a first-class thing, especially the Ming Emperor is here, opening a missionary opening from His Majesty the Emperor, isn't it better than fighting?

Ferdinand III, on the other hand, was a bit abnormal.

It's not that Ferdinand III wasn't interested in weapons and equipment, or that Ferdinand III showed hostility towards the Ming Dynasty, but that Ferdinand III looked at the third Zhu Ciyi with a strange gaze.

Emperor Chongzhen has long heard that the European barbarians are not normal, and it is not a strange thing to openly engage in the foundation, but eyeing his own son?

His mother! I can still lift a knife!

The furious Emperor Chongzhen was about to call someone to hack Ferdinand III, a dead, to death, but saw Ferdinand III stroking his chest to Emperor Chongzhen, bowed down and said, "I don't know if the third prince has ever been married?" ”

PS: I recommend the big guy's new book "Rescuing the Ming Dynasty", I wrote Chongzhen, he wrote Zhu Cihong, hehehe......
