Steam Daming: Stop calling me to supervise the country

Zhu Zhanqian said that letting Joan of Arc change the flag, this flag is the glory and symbol of Joan of Arc, this is tantamount to changing Joan of Arc's faith, how is this possible.

Joan of Arc said slightly angrily: "Your Excellency, King of the Sea, it is absolutely impossible."

"Your Excellency Joan of Arc, I admire your character very much. It's a pity that you are a Frenchman, and I have a sworn feud with your king. If it weren't for that, I would be more than happy to help you as much as I can." Zhu Zhan Yan sighed.

"I still firmly believe in the instructions of the heavens. Your Excellency the King of the Sea will surely save France." Joan of Arc was unusually certain.

"I'm sorry, I don't believe in your gods. I'm here for revenge. In theory, the relationship between you and me should still be considered hostile, but I appreciate your character very much, so I will order it to fight in the future. You, I will not let my soldiers hurt you."

Joan of Arc became worried again: "Your Excellency, King of the Sea, please don't start a war against us France. Our people have suffered so much in the war. The fire of war will not bring happiness to the world. I believe Your Excellency understands this truth."

Zhu Zhanqian knocked on the table with his fingers, picked up a handful of Aka [-] and said: "War will not bring happiness, war will always be the birthplace of suffering, but Joan of Arc, will you stop talking to Ingolan?" War? Would you say these great principles to the soldiers of Ingoland before the battle? I am the same as you, and we all have reasons to fight."

Joan of Arc showed embarrassment. As a member of France, she understood the danger of the war between the north and the south. The Ming army did not seem to have many people, but the current defenders in Marseilles had a large number of troops but insufficient combat power. She knew very well The fighting power of the troops under these nobles is so hip.

Just how much time and price these people would have to pay to defeat Daming's army.

The British army took advantage of the situation to fight, can their northern line hold up?

And she understands the selfishness of this aristocrat. Once the Ming army and France go to war, Ingolan will definitely get the news as soon as possible. You can always trust the loyalty of the French aristocrats.

Can't fight, absolutely can't fight, this is the only thought in Joan's heart.

Joan of Arc once again knelt down on one knee and performed a knight salute to Zhu Zhanqian: "Your Excellency, Sea King, please don't start a war against us France, I can understand your anger, but the people of France are innocent, Your Excellency Sea King He is a benevolent prince, and he must understand."

"I can understand but I can't do it. This is a good opportunity for Ming to take revenge. I have no reason to care about the people of your country and forget the hatred of our courtiers. Our courtiers have been drifting in foreign countries for several years. , suffered all kinds of hardships, and now I am here, but you tell me not to take revenge, sorry, I can’t do it, even if I admire your personal character, but in the face of national hatred and family hatred, I will not compromise.”

Joan of Arc resorted to the method of passing on at this time: "Your Majesty, the King of the Sea, you don't know that the king of Ingoland died a few years ago. Their king is just a seven or eight-year-old child, and his two uncles, the Duke of Gloucester Humphrey, John, Duke of Bedford, Regent, we have news that Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, will be sailing to France in January. This is a good opportunity, if your lord the Sea King can catch him, I believe I can learn more about your best friend Zheng He back then."

Zhu Zhanqian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Joan of Arc. Joan of Arc wanted to use herself as a spearman. Couldn't Zhu Zhanqian not see such an obvious approach?
Joan continued: "This news was leaked by John, Duke of Ingoland's Bedford. The two are fighting for the actual control of Ingoland. Most of the rights, so both sides want to get rid of each other, the news is absolutely reliable."

"I know that what I said won't make you change your attitude towards France, but this is a better choice. Your Excellency is now at war with France. Although your army has better weapons, your number is insufficient and the follow-up supplies are insufficient. If you really start a war, many people will die in your army, and even you are in danger. Why don't you join forces to control the Ingolan people now? Duke Humphrey has been in power in Ingoland for a long time. I think your Excellency The matter of his close friend Zheng He is related to him."

Zhu Zhanqian looked at Hou Xian at the side at this time, and Hou Xian nodded. He bought Zheng He back from the duke. When he mentioned this man, his face showed a disgusted expression.

Joan's words were half lure, half threat. Now that the war is going on in France, there is no doubt that both sides will fall into the mud of the war. Now, if they rely on this news and use the steam warship to capture the regent of Ingoland alive The duke may be a plan with less consumption and greater profit.

Joan of Arc is very smart. She understands that politics and war are all about maximizing benefits. When he revealed the news to Zhu Zhanqian, he actually gave Zhu Zhanqian a choice that he could not refuse.

With Zhu Zhanqian's current manpower, if he wants to capture the Duke Regent of Ingoland alive, he will have to send most of his manpower. By then, the remaining people will not be able to support the battle with France. If he insists on fighting France, he will miss it. this opportunity.

As long as this information is true, the choice is very simple.

Zhu Zhanqian's original plan was to rely on his superiority in people and weapons, relying on the French army to be delayed on the northern front, and force himself to occupy an area on the southern coast of France as his front-line position. His general offensive plan was to place After the canal was dug through, this meant that at least this base area had to be in a stalemate war with France for at least one or two years.

The ammunition and manpower invested are very huge.

If he can really capture the Duke Regent of Ingoland, he will get a huge reward at a very low price, and it will still be intercepted at sea when he knows the time and route of the other party's departure. For Daming, who owns the steam fleet Simply the best choice.

It's just whether the news is true or false.

"Your Excellency Joan of Arc, the first time you and I met, you gave me such information, which made it hard for me to believe your motives. I think you should have the intention of letting us fight and your Excellency will benefit yourself."

Joan of Arc said with some embarrassment: "Our northern line of France is almost completely occupied by Ingoland, so we have no ships that can go to sea in the north. We prepared the army to intercept Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester at the port, and Bei The subordinates of Duke John of Telford will stand on the sidelines and use our hands to kill Humphrey, and at the same time, as a condition of the transaction, they will return part of our land, this matter is only known to me, His Royal Highness Prince Charles and others."

"How can I trust you."

Facing Zhu Zhanqian's question, Joan held her own flag in her hand, held her head high and said, "My lord, I have already told you everything I know, and I will still lead the army to the port to intercept the Duke of Gloucester." , if Your Excellency insists on attacking France, then you and I are mortal enemies, I swear in the name of God, I will lead the French cavalry to fight against Your Excellency until the last man!"

Joan's statement is to let Zhu Zhanqian understand that choosing to continue here will make you pay a greater price.

"Your Excellency Joan of Arc, our Ming army does not accept any threats." Zhu Zhanqian narrowed his eyes slightly, fierce as a snake staring at a mouse, and Joan of Arc looked at him with trepidation.

"I'm not threatening Your Excellency." Joan of Arc didn't know what to say.

After a brief silence, Zhu Zhanqian himself eased the tense atmosphere: "Your Excellency Joan of Arc, could you be deceiving me with this news?"

"I swear in the name of God, if I deceive His Excellency Neptune, I am willing to hide in hell and be scorched by the fire of hell forever, bitten by vicious dogs, and whipped with poisonous whips every day. I will never go to heaven." Joan made the oath directly.

For a person like her who practiced God, it was absolutely impossible to make fun of such an oath, unless she violated her own beliefs, otherwise his or her words would be absolutely credible.

"But how can Your Excellency be sure that the nobles of Ingoland are not lying to you anymore? Will he use this trick to lure you into a trap and then take the opportunity to arrest you? Then I went like this and I just happened to be caught by someone." Zhu Zhan He continued to ask questions.

Joan of Arc was silent at first, and then looked at Zhu Zhanqian with firm eyes: "His Excellency, you may not understand Ingolan, Humphrey and John have always been at odds, and the two are actually Ingolan If there is a problem with any one of them, the other person will become the sole ruler of Ingoland, and even further become the king of Ingoland. Humphrey has sent someone to negotiate peace with our prince, I think it is credible. "

Zhu Zhanqian smiled coldly: "If you think it's credible, do I have to think it's credible? What if the other party has set up a trap and is waiting for you to get in? Now you've beaten them back from their territory in France Quite a few, don't you think he should hate you?"

Countries like Europa are like this. You lie to me, and I lie to you. Talking about aristocratic culture and chivalry, in the end, few of them mean what they say.

So Zhu Zhanqian felt that this message was probably used by Ingolan to confuse Joan of Arc and the French army, and wanted to capture this saint who defeated them on the frontal battlefield.

Duke Humphrey's information may be true or false, and Zhu Zhanqian understands Joan of Arc.

"You actually know that this may be a trap, so you want me to go too, so you have at least one ally, right?" Zhu Zhanqian expressed Joan's true inner thoughts.

Joan of Arc stood where she was, and did not deny Zhu Zhanqin's words. Zhu Zhanqin said with a slight sneer, "Ms. Joan of Arc, should I say you are smart?"

"You're not trying to get wise, but you've already thought about it. You want me, your original enemy, to become your ally and help you fight Yinggelan together."

"Are you thinking that if I capture the Duke of Ingeland alive, with the enmity between me and Ingolan, I will definitely try my best to attack Ingolan. At that time, Yinggelan will fight fiercely with our Ming Dynasty, and naturally it will be too late." I don’t care about you France, and you can take advantage of this opportunity to expel Ingoland’s army and recover the lost land of France, right?”

Joan of Arc just continued to look at Zhu Zhanqian, she felt a little guilty, Zhu Zhanqian heard all of her wishful thinking.

"So your so-called oracle and prophecy are all false." Zhu Zhanqian pointed at Joan of Arc with Aka Siqi.

Joan of Arc who was still a little guilty just now, but her eyes became extremely firm: "You can insult me, but you can't insult my god." If someone blasphemes her god, she will fight with her life.

The scene fell into silence again.

This time it was Joan who broke the silence.

The resolute girl, holding her own flag, turned her head and walked straight out of the tent.

"Wait, I didn't say you can leave." Following Zhu Zhanqian's words, the soldiers of the Ming army stood in front of Joan of Arc.

"Why is His Excellency Neptune of Ming Dynasty going to kill me? Even if you want to go to war, killing the envoy is not in compliance with the rules, or you don't have such rules."

Zhu Zhanqian said slowly: "You write down the route of the Duke of Ingoland and the specific time. I will not do anything to you France in a short time."

In the end, Zhu Zhanqian chose the option that looked better. Although this choice may have half the probability of being a trap, Zhu Zhanqian is not afraid. Have absolute confidence.

If it is said that the capture of the Duke of Ingoland needs to be carried out on land, Zhu Zhanqian will never agree. The risk is too high and the cost of failure is too high, but if it is at sea, the cost of failure is small A lot.

And even if it was Yinggelan's trap, his appearance was something they didn't expect, could they react to it?

Joan came back and handed a letter with a written message to Zhu Zhanqian.

Zhu Zhanyan took the letter: "You seem to have expected that I would accept your message."

"God gave me guidance. His Excellency Neptune will save France, and it will definitely come true. God never deceives his most devout believers." Joan of Arc was very determined.

Zhu Zhan was expressionless and indifferent.

"God is always above the secular, he never set foot in the dirty, he is never stained by mud, when God needs, his lamb will exercise authority instead of him, those dark, dirty and filthy things are always just The sins of the lambs, and God never saves His lambs, because God says He loves the world and never takes sides."

After saying this, Zhu Zhanqian's eyes were seven points indifferent and three points compassionate, looking at Joan of Arc, looking at this lamb of God, whether you have received the oracle really or not, what do you believe in? In the end, you will silently watch you die in the sea of ​​fire, and your devout prayers are as sweet to your god as your cries as you burn in the flames.

"Your Excellency, I will send troops to capture the Duke of Ingoland, but if I know that you have deceived me, whether you were deceived or otherwise, it has nothing to do with me, and I will blame all the crimes on the Your Excellency, you and your French people will bear my wrath and pay the due price with your blood and lives."

Zhu Zhanqian said indifferently, Joan of Arc looked at him, and couldn't help but feel chills in his heart. Is this oriental who traveled thousands of miles to take revenge, really the hero who came to save himself and the French people in the oracle?
She seemed to see a bloodthirsty demon on Zhu Zhanqian's body. Contrary to his handsome and gentle appearance, he was showing his teeth and claws, and he was extremely thirsty for blood.
