Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 444 Thirty-seventy-sixth 22 counts
"Is this the new Great Khan of the Golden Horde?"

After the two armies converged, Zhu Sanfeng looked at Chen Mao who was somewhat proud, and asked.

"So, you didn't attack according to the scheduled time, but you actually went to catch him?"

"Return to General Zhu, that's right." Chen Mao nodded, and followed Zhu Sanfeng's gaze to look at Bo Lahan.

"General Zhu thinks...how should this person be dealt with?"

Zhu Sanfeng raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, and turned to look at Chen Mao.

"laugh……"

Letting out an uncontrollable laugh, Zhu Sanfeng turned and left. Chen Mao was taken aback for a moment, but still followed quickly.

"I know what you're thinking. You just want to send this person to His Royal Highness."

Knowing that Chen Mao had followed, Zhu Sanfeng talked while walking.

"I understand that you are new here, and you really need military exploits to be able to stabilize yourself. This time, Bora Khan fell into your hands, although it was a bit of luck, because he chose the direction where you were stationed when he escaped. , but in fact you should also know that with Mahama in front, the credit is actually not that great."

"Both are captive khans. Compared with Mahama, who was captured by the Mu family, he has more weight. After all, he is the khan who has been in charge of the Golden Horde for many years. It's not Bora Khan who has been enthroned, but only one came. The Khan of the Moon can compare."

"However, although I also understand and support you in sending this person to Junbao, this is only for you or Zheng Heng. If it were me, I would probably execute this person on the spot. Waste of time and energy."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Sanfeng left regardless of Chen Mao who was stunned in place.

At first glance, Zhu Sanfeng's words were more or less meant to suppress Chen Mao. After all, Chen Mao captured the current Khan of the Golden Horde. It is difficult for her to misunderstand.

But in fact, after hearing Zhu Sanfeng's words, although Chen Mao was somewhat dissatisfied and unwilling, he also agreed with Zhu Sanfeng's statement.

A country cannot live without a ruler for a day.

This Bora Khan was completely launched temporarily by the Golden Horde when the country had no monarch, in order to stabilize the hearts of the people and restore the confidence of the people as much as possible, so that they would face the attack of the Ming army more. Odds are good.

But for the Ming army, the capture of Bora Khan had no other effect except to give the Golden Horde another heavy blow. Many uses.

Thinking of this, Chen Mao couldn't help but feel a little lost.

"come..."

The frustrated Chen Mao waved slowly and called a guard over.

"Take that Bora Khan to deal with it, and just present the head to His Royal Highness, so you don't need to bring a living creature."

"Yes!"

Chen Mao's personal guard, who was also the guard of Zhu Zhanhe's eldest son, looked up at Chen Mao in surprise after hearing Chen Mao's words, and then took the order to leave.

It has to be said that Chen Mao has a bit of decisive power to make this decision, at least he is not a pedantic person, nor is he a person who pursues fame and fortune.

Watching the guards leave, Chen Mao sighed deeply and looked up at the sky.

In the battle of Sarai, it seemed that he was the biggest contributor, but because the value of Bora Khan would be greatly reduced, he actually did not have much credit.

Everything depends on the war launched against the Grand Duchy of Lithuania after the rendezvous with the Jian Xiao Army.

If he and Zheng Heng couldn't get enough credit in this battle to gain a firm foothold, then it would be a question of whether they could gain a firm foothold in Daming under the control of King Wu's lineage in the future.

At worst, you have to show your determination...

……

Rome.

After confirming that the reinforcements from Uszangdusi had arrived in Venice, Zhu Zhanhe left Junbao again and came to Rome.

Facts have proved that his vision is still good.

During the period when I left Rome, I only used 5 people to block the passes of the Alps and Velebit Mountains on the east side, and I was able to defend Rome.

With the demise of the Principality of Venice, only the Kingdom of Aragon, the Kingdom of Castile and the Kingdom of Grape Sprout remained in the sea power in the Mediterranean region, and the first two of these three were temporary allies of the Ming army, and the last Being stuck outside the Strait of Gibraltar, unable to enter the Mediterranean Sea.

Under such circumstances, the only pass between the Alps and Velebit Mountain, which is almost completely covered by the Alps, became the only way for the Holy Roman Empire to take back Rome.

However, after arriving in Rome, Zhu Zhanhe immediately issued an order, that is, to let the newly arrived Uzangdu Division not to cross Velebit Mountain for the time being, but to stay in Venice for the time being.

This war against the Holy Roman Empire was also a war to regain Qian Yong's position. In the Eastern European battlefield in the east, the Ming army had already achieved a decisive victory, but it had not yet achieved any results in the Central European battlefield.

Zhu Zhanhe was somewhat unwilling.

Of course, this is mainly because he is not in a hurry.

What he is using now is actually the hard-to-get strategy in the 36 strategies. He wants to use this method of mobilizing troops to make the Holy Roman Empire feel that Rome is no longer under the control of the Ming army, so that the Holy Roman Empire can enter this pocket.

This is No.36 meter among 16 meters.

Zhu Zhanhe is well aware of how important Rome is to Europe. It is impossible for Europe under the rule of Catholicism to give up Rome. You will be so scolded that you can't hold your head up.

At that time, the Holy Roman Empire, which has no sea power, can only enter Venice through the pass of Velebit Mountain. At this time, it only needs to seal the pass to complete Zhu Zhanhe's final arrangement.

No.36 of 20 Strategies Second Strategies: Close the door and catch thieves.

Anyway, he is not afraid of waste, no matter how much it is consumed, the Holy Roman Empire will suffer, so Zhu Zhanhe is naturally not in a hurry.

He knew that it was impossible for Sigismund not to take action against Rome, even if Sigismund sensed that there was a fraud in it, resisted the abuse from the whole Central Europe and chose not to take action, then Zhu Zhanhe would not be afraid.

When the Eastern European battlefield is over, the Holy Roman Empire, even if it is the most powerful united country in Europe, will only be a turtle in Zhu Zhanhe's urn.

What Zhu Zhanhe relies on is that the enemy has no sea power and cannot detect the mobilization of troops on his side.

All Zhu Zhanhe has to do now is to wait.

"What's going on in the Kingdom of Aragon?"

After reading all the battle reports in front of him, Zhu Zhanhe raised his head and looked at Zhu Ling beside him.

"Returning to His Royal Highness, the Kingdom of Aragon has followed the original agreement, and first sent troops to the border of the Grape Sprout Kingdom together with the Castile Kingdom to put pressure on the Grape Sprout Kingdom, so that it has no time to take care of the Strait of Gibraltar."

"Then, the Kingdom of Aragon sent [-] troops to aid the Kingdom of France. When we got the news, the reinforcements had already been dispatched for more than ten days."

"Oh?" Zhu Zhanhe's eyes lit up instantly.

"The news is true?"

"His Royal Highness, I can't be sure." Zhu Ling lowered his head and lowered his voice a lot.

"You did not send relevant personnel to the Kingdom of Aragon, so our main source of intelligence on the Kingdom of Aragon is the trade team."

Zhu Zhanhe frowned upon hearing this.

Indeed, because of the alliance and the fact that Western Europe is not easy to infiltrate for the time being, Zhu Zhanhe has basically never asked anyone to investigate information about Western Europe except through normal trade. .

For Zhu Zhanhe, Wang Jinghong was the head of intelligence investigations in Western Europe, but because the distance was too far, it would take more than a month just to deliver a message, and the speed was too slow.

After thinking for a long time, Zhu Zhanhe raised his head and said to Zhu Ling, "Go and bring Joan back."

"Yes!" Zhu Ling stepped back in response.

For Joan of Arc, Zhu Zhanhe did not force her in any way. On the contrary, he brought Joan over after he broke through Rome, and placed her in a corner of the monastery. .

Like Agnès, the mistress of the King of France before, Zhu Zhanhe used it as a toy, a tool to vent his emotions, but for Joan of Arc, he really had arrangements.

Because of Zhu Zhanhe's intervention, although Joan of Arc has some prestige in the army of the French Kingdom, it is not high, and there are many voices against her.

The reason is that Joan's way of commanding marches and battles is different from the traditional way of the Kingdom of France. She knows very well that the Kingdom of France has no way out, so she is usually used to attacking the enemy with a thunderbolt, regardless of logistics supplies.

That is to say, what Joan of Arc is good at is fighting to the death, using this command method with no retreat to make the soldiers desperate.

After all, there is no way out, if you don’t do your best and I don’t do your best, the final result is very likely to be defeated, and the captives after the defeat are usually not very good.

As the saying goes, the mourning army must win, and such an army can exert more than [-]% of its strength.

At the same time, this is also the reason why Joan of Arc led the army to win several battles, but her reputation is not very high, and there are still many people who oppose her.

"Report to His Royal Highness, Joan will bring it here."

Just as Zhu Zhanhe was thinking wildly, Zhu Ling's voice sounded from outside.

Zhu Zhanhe winked at Zhu Ping beside him, and Zhu Ping quickly walked over to open the door.

Joan of Arc, who was half-pushed and half-resigned, without any expression on her face, not even a trace of blood, was brought in, along with an interpreter.

"How is it?" Zhu Zhanhe smiled and leaned back on the chair.

"What was it like living in a Roman monastery for you who 'revealed from God'?"

As the translator relayed Zhu Zhanhe's words to Joan of Arc, Joan of Arc's originally expressionless and bloodless face flushed quickly, and her expression also became angry.

For a devout Catholic, facing a ruined Rome, and being himself under the control of the culprit, this is the greatest humiliation.

What's more, Zhu Zhanhe also uttered such words as "revealed from the Lord", which is tantamount to slapping Joan's face hard.

"It's useless to be angry with me. You should know who caused the current situation in the Kingdom of France."

With a smile on his face, Zhu Zhanhe watched the translator relay his words to Joan of Arc, and then watched Joan of Arc shouting out of breath with a smile on his face.

Raising his hand to stop the translator's act of wanting to translate, Zhu Zhanhe didn't need to think about it to know that what Joan of Arc said was not a good thing.

"Actually, you should know that the Kingdom of Aragon is powerful. Yolanda could have sent troops into the English Channel to stop the English from going south like me, and she could have sent troops to support his son-in-law Charles VII, but she didn't do that. Do."

"You should know what Yolanda did before, and you should be able to see that Yolanda has ulterior motives, so that's why he has been dragging his back to the Kingdom of France."

"What she wants is to preserve her strength as much as possible. After I send people to block the English Channel and drive away the English, she will drive me away with the most complete strength and monopolize the Kingdom of France."

"Don't you have any ideas about such a person?"

Zhu Zhanhe was still smiling as he watched the translator relay his words to Joan of Arc, and he was still watching the change of expression on Joan's face with a smile on his face.

Joan was silent.

She knew very well that Zhu Zhanhe's purpose in saying these words was to use herself as a gunman, otherwise he wouldn't have to spend so much time convincing herself.

But she also knew that everything Zhu Zhanhe said was true, at least there was evidence to follow.

Because what Yolanda has done all the time can prove that she is deliberately delaying the aid to the Kingdom of France.

"How about it? I can give you 1 people and let you enter the Kingdom of Aragon with the caravan. As for how far you can go, that's up to you."

Looking at Joan of Arc who had been shaken, Zhu Zhanhe dropped the final bargaining chip.

Joan of Arc still bowed her head and remained silent, Zhu Zhanhe was not in a hurry, let alone urged, but just looked at her with a smile on his face.

I don't know how long it took, Joan raised her head slowly, the flush of anger on her face has subsided, and her angry expression has also turned into firmness.

You don't need to listen to what she has to say, Zhu Zhanhe knows what she wants to say.

For the current Joan of Arc, it is impossible to take revenge on Zhu Zhanhe, she has no chance, but in contrast, she can take revenge on Yolanda with Zhu Zhanhe's help.

Even if, the humiliation that Zhu Zhanhe brought to the Kingdom of France was far greater than what Yolanda brought to her.

But, she doesn't have a choice, does she?

If she agrees, she can at least get half of the revenge, if she doesn't agree, then she won't even have half.

Zhu Zhanhe straightened up with a smile, and wrote a transfer order with a pen.

So far, the third plan and the seventh plan of the 36 plans have all been arranged.

First, they created something out of nothing, and then borrowed a knife to kill someone.
