Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 993 Chaotic France
France was under the attack of the Ming army, and the Fronde took the opportunity to launch a large-scale riot again. Many French people began to help the Ming army, not only providing supplies for the Ming army, but also delivering supplies to the Ming army.

Many people in Paris also began to oppose the rule of Archbishop Mazarin and the Queen Mother. They launched riots in the city and confronted the royal army, which was very similar to the performance of the people when the Eight-Power Allied Forces attacked the capital.

In many cities captured by the Ming army, the Fronde began to massacre the French royal army everywhere. A Fronde movement started vigorously with the cooperation of the Ming army. The damage to France by this movement far exceeded the extent of the invasion of France by the Ming army.

Under the city of Paris, before the Ming army began to attack the city, many Parisians had brought ladders for the Ming army to help the Ming army attack the city, and the people in the city also attacked the royal army and the defenders on the city.

For them, the entry of the Ming army into France this time is the best opportunity for them to overthrow the rule of the French royal family. Otherwise, when the Ming army withdraws, the French royal army will immediately bloodbath them.

Zhang Huangyan and Li Dingguo did not expect that the French people would welcome the Ming army so much. Instead of treating the Ming army as an invader, they regarded the Ming army as their savior.

Since the French people welcomed the Ming army so much, the Ming army could not let them down, so they ordered the commanders of the Ming army at all levels not to disturb or kill the people if the French people did not resist the Ming army.

The people who have been oppressed and exploited by the French royal family and the archbishop in red for hundreds of years, seeing that the Ming army did nothing to them, and the attack target was the same as theirs, these people became more friendly to the Ming army, and many of them regarded the Ming army as a His own soldiers.

Thousands of French people began to attack Paris on their own initiative. How could they be the opponents of the well-equipped royal army?

Many French people prayed to the Ming army to enter Paris to avenge them. At that time, most people in the world were not wise enough to think about the spirit of patriotism and nationalism, which did not exist at all.

More than 200 years later, they still don't know what patriotism is. In the Second World War, the strong Frenchmen only lasted for forty days before raising the white flag and surrendering.

The French people only know that under the rule of the cardinal and the royal family, they have been living in dire straits, and no one has ever been able to save them. Now that the Ming army has come, they feel as if they are about to escape the sea of ​​suffering.

, As for Dongying, which was wiped out by the Ming army, the people in the Indochina Peninsula and Tsarist Russia are living very well now, and they have no worries about farming, eating and drinking on the land allocated to them by the Ming army.

Under such circumstances, how could the city of Paris, the capital of France, be able to defend itself? Li Dingguo gave an order, and the Ming army pushed two hundred Chongzhen cannons and three hundred Mokang missiles from the naval warships, and then the hot air balloons rose over Paris. .

Explosive packs fell from the sky one by one, and Maokang missiles fell on the city of Paris. The French royal army guarding the city gates were blown away with blood and flesh, and most of the defenders on the top of the city were also blown to pieces.

"fire!"

Seeing that the artillery on the city of Paris was no longer capable of threatening the Ming army, Li Dingguo gave an order, and two hundred Chongzhen cannons began to blow violently at the tall city wall of Paris. Soon the city wall of Paris was blasted with a gap of more than 300 meters.

"Soldiers, go!"

Li Dingguo had just ordered the Ming army to charge towards the gap, but he saw thousands of French people waiting outside the city rushing into Paris first, but what was waiting for them was the firearms of the Wang army, and soon thousands of people were killed by the Wang army. Army shot.

"Mortar, fire!"

Li Dingguo was secretly delighted that these people had completely helped the Ming army to test out the deployment of troops in the city. With a wave of his hand, five hundred mortars began to bombard the Wang army's position wildly.

During half a stick of incense, the Wang army left thousands of corpses and retreated in a hurry. After the Ming army entered the city, they found that Paris was on fire everywhere. It turned out that the people had already started to burn the mansions of the French nobles.

"Decree that Paris cannot be set on fire for the time being."

Li Dingguo saw that something was wrong. I hadn’t loaded the valuables in Paris on board, so how could I set them on fire now? So I ordered all the arsonists to be killed on the spot before the Ming army took control of the nobles in Paris!

The Frondemen were considered sensible, and stopped setting fire to noble mansions after receiving the notice, and they began to search for the royal family's royal army desperately.

Many royal soldiers hid in the homes of the common people. They thought they could escape, but they were quickly picked out from the homes of the common people by the Fronde and their supporters and beaten to death with sticks.

Under the leadership of the local guides, the Ming Navy and the Dragon Banner Army swept away the valuables from the homes of the princes and nobles, and then the army surrounded the French Palace of Versailles and the Louvre.

Even Paris can’t defend, Versailles and the Louvre can’t stop the attack of the Ming army and the Fronde, of course, the Ming navy doesn’t care how old you are, the artillery on the battleship on the Seine directly bombarded the gate of the Louvre into ruins.

The Fronde rushed in and after a bitter battle, they tied up the French Queen Mother and Archbishop Mazarin out of the palace. The five-year-old French Sun King Louis XIV was directly thrown to death by two extreme Fronde members.

The Ming army then entered the Louvre and looted all the gold, silver and valuables inside. Before leaving, a fire burned the Louvre to ashes. This was the order of Emperor Zhu Youjian of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Dingguo didn't know why the Emperor Daming set fire to such a majestic palace. Although he felt a little pity, he didn't dare to disobey Zhu Youjian's order.

How did he know that this was Emperor Ming's revenge for the burning of the Old Summer Palace by the French army. Not only would the Louvre be burned, but Versailles and their Notre Dame Cathedral would also be doomed.

Zhu Youjian learned this from the Eight-Power Allied Forces. All the good things that could be snatched were shipped back to Daming, and the good things that could not be moved were burned and destroyed, and they would never leave any historical relics for them.

Except for the larger area of ​​crops planted in France, it is not very attractive to Ming Dynasty, and the value is even as far as the Australian mainland.

To say that the people in France are really capable of doing things and learning. After seeing that the Ming army removed all the valuable things from the Palace of Versailles, they burned the Palace of Versailles to ashes, which was cleaner than the Louvre.

Li Dingguo and Zheng Chenggong did not count how much gold, silver and valuables were stolen from France, because it was impossible to count them in too short a time, and the twenty transport ships were full of gold and silver treasures.

The Ming army walked on the road for more than a month, but the war ended in only eight days. The fact that the battle was able to end so quickly had a lot to do with the support of their people.

Zhu Youjian has no intention of quelling the turmoil in France for the time being, because there are still many supporters of the Fronde and the royal family fighting in every corner.

If the Ming army did not enter France, it would be difficult for the Fronde to contend with the French royal family, because their leader, Prince Condé, was still in the Ottoman Empire and had not returned.

The riots initiated by the Fronde lasted for three full months, causing the loss of a quarter of the French population. The blow to France was fatal. Even if the Ming army did not enter France, it would be difficult for them to recover their national strength within 20 years.
