It was in Venice that Zhu Zhan received news that the Grand Duchy of Mosk had been conquered by the Ming army, as well as the death of Yuri and the capture of Vasily II and the escort of the Ming army to Junbao.

Fold the letter paper in his hand into a paper airplane, and looked at Venice in the distance, which had become a ruin because of white phosphorus eggs, Zhu Zhanyan flew the paper airplane in his hand.

He was a little emotional.

If it weren't for his own appearance, the Grand Duchy of Mosk would have entered a trough during this time, and what happened during this trough can be called dog blood in dog blood.

The elder brother was defeated by his younger brother and was forced to flee to the Golden Horde for refuge, and then the elder brother returned as a king, defeated the younger brother, and then defeated the younger brother's son, that is, his own nephew, and after the death of the younger brother, taking advantage of the internal strife between the two nephews, the elder brother defeated the nephew again.

Later, the nephew's son, the elder brother's nephew, made a comeback and defeated the elder brother again, and the elder brother chose to unite with others for revenge, but was blinded by someone else, but fortunately succeeded in the end, and received the name of a blind archduke.

After that, the elder brother remained in the position of Grand Duke until his death, but before his death he was freed from the control of the Holy See, which also allowed the Grand Duchy of Mosk to rise to prominence in the hands of his brother's son.

In the end, the Grand Duchy of Mosk became the largest country in the future and one of the most powerful countries in the world, and even became the big brother of rabbits.

But now, this big brother is in his infancy...... No, it should be said that he died in his hands when he was still an egg, which made Zhu Zhan sigh.

Still, it's a good thing.

After all, a big brother who doesn't compete with his younger brother is a good big brother......

Moreover, if it weren't for this good big brother, the younger brother of later generations would not have fallen to that point.

You must know that when my younger brother was seriously ill and took the opportunity to rob my younger brother's property, there was this good big brother......

"His Royal Highness!"

Just when Zhu Zhan was looking at the ruined water city in a daze, Zhu Ling's voice sounded behind him.

"Say."

"Your Royal Highness, we are too late, the vanguard of the Holy Roman Empire has arrived in the Future Bit Mountains, and as you arranged before, we have been buried in the valley of Velebit Mountain by our 50,000 ambush soldiers."

"What about the reinforcements of the Uszangdus? Not involved? ”

"Back to His Royal Highness! It was because of the reinforcements of the Uszangdu Division that our 50,000 ambush soldiers were able to bury the enemy in the valley without them, and if they had not blocked the exit of Mount Velebit, I am afraid that they would have rushed out. ”

"Hmm......" Zhu Zhanyan nodded slightly.

"Pass the order, and the whole army will be pulled out! Target ......"

"Zagreb!"

"Yes!"

……

Zhu Ling walked in the direction of the big tent, while Zhu Zhan Yan continued to look in the direction of Venice.

The paper airplane that was still in his field of vision now doesn't know where it has flown to.

50,000 ambush soldiers seemed to be a bit small, and the enemy almost rushed out, but in fact, things were not out of Zhu Zhan's control.

Because he had people bury a large number of water bags at the exit of the valley, and the water bags kept white phosphorus in them.

As soon as the enemy army comes out, it will definitely step on the water bag, and then the white phosphorus will flow out, and the white phosphorus with a very low ignition point will exert its power at that time.

It's just useless.

But it's okay, white phosphorus is poisonous, and it is risky to mine and produce, and now Zhu Zhanyan has been using those slaves and prisoners of war to do these things, and many of these people are consumed every year.

It was a very troublesome matter to transport slaves and prisoners of war back to Xiangzhou Prefecture, and white phosphorus was now used more and more often, so it would be saved......

Xiangzhou Mansion.

The first work of the Ming Dynasty has come to an end, and the ordinary imperial examination is different, this time the work of Xiangzhou Mansion took one person, Shuntian Mansion took one person, Ying Tianfu did not.

There are only two of them, and this work seems to be a failure, but in fact, how successful it is is only known to the people at the top.

This is because the two inventions taken in this work are extremely important.

Looking at the letter in his hand, and then looking at the other copy in his hand, Zhu Zhanqi had a headache.

Although he didn't know much about the new guns and the new mines, because of the relatively little contact he had had with over the years, it didn't prevent him from knowing the importance of these things.

However, he didn't know what kind of changes these things would bring, and how to use them, and he knew that only his eldest brother could do the best of them.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanqi breathed a sigh of relief, stuffed two pieces of letter paper into the same envelope at the same time, stamped a seal on it, and personally painted it.

This means that the things in this are extremely important, so important that only Zhu Zhanyan personally opens them, no matter who the others are, even if they are people like Qian Yong, there is only one consequence if they open it without authorization.

Then he took up his pen and wrote another letter, stuffed it into the envelope in the same way, and then painted it.

"Someone." After doing all this, Zhu Zhanqi raised his head and shouted outside the door.

"Send this letter to my eldest brother with supplies, and this letter will be sent to Shuntian Mansion in an expedited manner of eight hundred miles, and handed over to Chen Xun, the secretary of the ministry."

"Remember, tell the messenger that both letters are to be delivered to the person who needs to be delivered in person, and not to anyone else."

"Yes!"

The guard cautiously left with two letters in hand, and closed the door.

In the huge room, Zhu Zhanqi was left alone again.

What he didn't know was how much impact the two inventions taken from this first work would have on the Ming Dynasty and the future.

……

Grand Duchy of Lithuania, Kief (auxiliary).

After destroying Mosk, the capital of the Grand Duchy of Mosk, Zhu Sanfeng took Chen Mao and Zheng Heng, as well as all the soldiers under his command, and set off again and arrived here after a short rest, counting casualties and transporting prisoners and wounded soldiers.

At the same time, Jian Xiao, who had been watching the Grand Duchy of Mosk's every move for a long time, also set off at the same time and rushed to Kyiv to meet Zhu Sanfeng.

Inside the big tent.

"So, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and its ally the Kingdom of Poland are now in a situation of full contraction to defend the royal capital, and it is our Ming treasure fleet that is responsible for all this?"

After listening to the news brought by Jian Xiao, Zhu Sanfeng's face was full of incredulity.

Like Qian Yong and Jian Xiao, she recorded all this in her mind after Zhu Zhanyan handed them the map of the whole of Europe and the approximate topography map for the first time.

Zhu Sanfeng knew that there was a sea above the head of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and this sea was also connected to the northern part of the Holy Roman Empire, the northern part of the Kingdom of France, and finally to the Mediterranean Sea through the Atlantic Ocean.

However, what she didn't expect was that Wang Jinghong would go to the Baltic Sea.

Zhu Sanfeng knew the mission of Wang Jinghong's fleet, and he also knew that Yolanda of Aragon was careful, and he also knew that Zhu Zhanyan asked Wang Jinghong's fleet to delay entering the English Channel because of Yolanda's careful thinking, so as to achieve the purpose of teaching Yolanda a lesson and making her obedient.

However, she really couldn't imagine that Wang Jinghong's so-called suspension of entry into the English Channel was not to exit the English Channel along the way he came, but to drive straight into the Baltic Sea directly.

In this way, the advantage is obvious, that is, while being able to advance and retreat freely in terms of geographical location, it can also allow the Ming to advance and retreat freely in the entire European battlefield.

After Wang Jinghong was stationed in the Baltic Sea, he could influence the battlefields of Central Europe and even Eastern Europe, and influence the outcome of the war between the Ming army and the Holy Roman Empire and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

However, the downside is also obvious.

After entering the Baltic Sea, the only exit was the Skagerrak Strait of the Kingdom of Denmark, and once this strait was blocked, Wang Jinghong's treasure fleet would be buried in the Baltic Sea.

"Will this work?" After thinking of these questions, Zhu Sanfeng looked up at Jian Xiao with questions.

"No problem." Jane smiled and fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand, with a smile full of meaning on her face.

"You may not know how much our royal commander has changed after the battle to capture the Sicilian Dynasty."

"Now, our treasure fleet is really brave and invincible above our heads, do you remember what nickname those white pigs gave you?"

"Oh?" Zhu Sanfeng raised his eyebrows.

"You mean ......"

"That's right." Jane smiled and nodded.

"Although our Wang Commander is physically disabled, what he does is what a real man does......"

"This way to kill all the way and rob the war, although it is not as ruthless as His Royal Highness the Prince's expedition to the Timurid Empire, but it is not far away......"

Zhu Sanfeng nodded slightly when he heard this.

On the expedition to the Timurid Empire, she basically followed Zhu Zhan Yan all the time, and in the matter of removing oil, it can be said that Zhu Zhan Yan made a decision, and she was ultimately responsible for her implementation.

If Wang Jinghong really achieved this point, not to mention anything else, he would definitely be able to make the enemy's morale weaken by three points before the battle was engaged, and even to the point of being able to surrender without a fight.

Moreover, if Wang Jinghong is really ruthless to this extent, coupled with the strength of the Shangbao fleet, the Baltic Sea will not be able to trap him.

The only problem is the supply problem.

Food and water can be obtained by means of warfare, but ammunition for firearms and white phosphorol eggs cannot be obtained in this way.

"Then without further ado, it's time for us to get moving." Thinking of this, Zhu Sanfeng's expression became serious.

"Commander Wang's consumption on the way to our heads is definitely not small, and other consumption is still a trivial matter, but the consumption of ammunition and personnel cannot be made up for in a short period of time."

"If we want to make up for this, then the direction of the attack of the king's commander will have to be shifted to the exit, and then we will not be able to help us so much."

"Therefore, we can't wait any longer, if we wait any longer, we will be dragging down our Ming soldiers."

"I'll ask you about this." Jane smiled and clasped the beads on her wrist, straightened up, and her expression became serious.

"I've been stationed here, on the one hand, to prevent the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and his allies from sending troops to the Holy Roman Empire and increase the pressure on His Royal Highness, and on the other hand, to prevent them from going south and increase the pressure on you."

"Now, as long as you're ready, we can go north at any time!"

"But before that, one thing is clear!"

As he spoke, Jian Xiao glanced at Zhu Sanfeng, Chen Mao, and Zheng Heng.

"In this battle, there is a royal command to exert pressure on the opposite side, and even be able to interact directly with us, but the first task is to cut off the connection between the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Poland, that is to say, we have to open all the way to the sea in the north."

"Then, we slowly swallowed and digested the Grand Duchy of Lithuania before turning to the Kingdom of Poland."

"After we have eaten and digested the Kingdom of Poland, we will be able to continue westward and return to the vicinity of the Danube to help His Royal Highness."

"But all of this has to be done in three months!"

"After three months, it will slowly enter winter here, and it will be inconvenient for His Royal Highness the Prince at that time, and he will have to go back to the Central Plains."

Chen Mao and Zheng Heng glanced at each other when they heard this, with a little doubt on their faces, but they didn't ask.

And Jian Xiao and Zhu Sanfeng saw a clear look in their eyes.

In the entire European battlefield, only the two of them and Qian Yong knew about Hu Shanshu, and other than that, even Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping didn't know.

It's been a year, and His Royal Highness the princess hasn't gone back when she's pregnant, and she hasn't gone back during this period of pregnancy, but the princess gave birth, so she must have to go back.

Recently, there have been some family matters.,It's been a two-day stop.,Say sorry to everyone.,Started to resume the update today.,As for the first two days of the break, I'll try to find time to make it up.。

I'm sorry.
