Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 467 Qian Zhong's War

Vienna.

After being captured by the Ming army, Vienna, like other places conquered by the Ming army, fell into an endless loop.

It still continued Zhu Zhanhe's usual style, what should be dealt with, valuables like young women were sent away with the supply fleet as trophies, leaving less than [-] young men in the entire city of Vienna.

This is because the Ming army needs a certain amount of young and strong to build and repair fortifications, otherwise these young and strong will be transported away as slaves and sent to the mines in Delhi Sultan and Xiangzhou Prefecture.

It has to be said that a person's subconscious has a great influence on a person. Zhu Zhanhe's many behaviors are still influenced by his previous life's subconscious until now.

For example, mining.

For a long time, the main minerals he mined were the Iwami Silver Mine and the Sado Gold Mine in the Japanese Kingdom. At first, they were mined by the court when Emperor Taizong was still alive. Later, when Emperor Taizong died, Zhu Zhanhe took over.

Until now, the two mines of the Wa Kingdom are still being mined, but after King Wu's lineage took over Daming, they began to manage them along the court's line.

In addition to these two minerals, Zhu Zhanhe also had people explore and mine many minerals, among which iron ore and copper are the main ones, and other minerals with large consumption such as white phosphorus are also among them.

However, whether it is gold and silver mines or other minerals, Zhu Zhanhe's arrangement has a characteristic, that is, to give priority to mining mines in Xiangzhou Prefecture, Delhi Sultan and other places, and now he is still exploring minerals in the old soil of the Timurid Empire .

As for the minerals in the Central Plains, Zhu Zhanhe did not open any more except for those that had already been mined.

not a single one!

This is mainly because minerals are non-renewable resources. Zhu Zhanhe chose to start from the outside instead of mining the minerals in the Central Plains out of the idea of ​​leaving more for future generations.

Therefore, in his subconscious mind, places such as Xiangzhou Prefecture, Nanzhou Prefecture, and the old land of the Timurid Empire are not yet the territory of Ming Dynasty, and he has always treated these places with the idea of ​​exploitation.

In other words, Xiangzhou Prefecture may be better, because the vast majority of Xiangzhou Prefecture is now settled by Han Chinese, and a very small number of Siamese, Nanzhang and other survivors have also been assimilated after more than ten years of exposure.

In Europe in the early stage, Zhu Zhanhe also planned to do the same, so he still attaches great importance to Vienna, which is regarded as the central area.

But before that, we still have to win Europe.

The [-] slaves built the fortifications, and the speed was not bad. It was not very fast, but it was not very slow. Moreover, with slaves, the soldiers of the Ming army could get a good rest.

but!

This also sent a wrong signal to the outside world.

In the eyes of Europeans, what Zhu Zhanhe did before is no different from a demon crawling out of hell, which shows that the army has completely stopped children from crying at night in this land.

In the past, the Ming army basically did not build fortifications, because the Ming army did not fight at home, but outside. It was like going south on the grassland. They ran away after fighting, and they didn't care whether it would cause destruction to these cities. s damage.

Only in a very few places, the Ming army would build fortifications, such as Constantinople and Rome.

But even if it is repaired, the Ming army will let its own people do it.

But this time, slaves were used.

This gave the Holy Roman Empire the illusion that the Ming army had mobilized most of its soldiers to the Eastern European battlefield, and there were not many people left in Vienna.

Vienna West Gate.

At the beginning, Qian Yong couldn't stay idle after recovering from his injuries. He went to the middle and lower reaches of the Danube to clean up the remnants. Later, he temporarily decided to go north to support the Eastern European battlefield.

Therefore, Xing Kun, who was originally assigned by Zhu Zhanhe to clean up the middle and lower reaches of the Danube, was driven back by Qian Yong and informed Zhu Zhanhe of the situation.

The final result was that Qian Yong led people to the north, and Zhu Zhanhe led people to the border of the Kingdom of Poland, leaving only Xing Kun to guard Vienna, and Xing Kun was given a difficult task.

Hold on to Vienna.

Xing Kun has never been responsible for such a difficult task before. The most difficult task he was responsible for before was the raids in various European countries.

Guarding a city and large-scale guerrilla warfare are completely two concepts.

But fortunately, Liu Qingwen, the old general he had been following before, and the guardian of the world's son, Qianhu, also came back.

"Liu Qianhu." Looking at the old leader in front of him, Xing Kun felt confident.

"According to the news from His Royal Highness, it is said that the Holy Roman Empire has transferred troops from Aachen, and the target seems to be Vienna. It seems that the suspicious array laid by His Royal Highness has already had an effect."

"If that's the case..." Liu Qingwen looked at Xing Kun after hearing the words.

He was not directly appointed by Zhu Zhanhe to guard Vienna, so even if his official position was higher than that of Xing Kun, he could not exceed his authority.

Without detailed intelligence, no matter how good a general is, he cannot command a war well.

"Here." Following Liu Qingwen for many years, Xing Kun naturally knew what his old boss was thinking.

A series of secret letters and maps were taken out by Xing Kun and placed in front of Liu Qingwen.

"If this is the case, then there should be no problem." Liu Qingwen also breathed a sigh of relief after reading the secret letters and other documents, raised his head and looked at Xing Kun with a smile.

"Don't be nervous. Since His Royal Highness entrusted you with this task, it proves that His Highness is optimistic about you."

"It's not that there are hundreds of other households in the city of Vienna, but His Royal Highness handed it over to you, which is enough to prove that you are capable."

"Don't worry." As he spoke, Liu Qingwen patted Xing Kun's shoulder with an encouraging smile on his face.

"I'll give you the bottom line, so you can safely and boldly arrange according to your ideas."

Xing Kun also had a smile on his face when he heard the words, and at the same time, there was a little bit of self-confidence and perseverance.

"Report!"

The voice of the messenger sounded, instantly making both Liu Qingwen and Xing Kun turn their heads.

……

Western Carpathians.

It has been two days since I came here, but Zhu Zhanhe didn't seem to have the slightest desire to do anything, and has been stationed at the foot of the mountain, as if it was purely to frighten the Kingdom of Poland.

But as long as anyone who is familiar with Zhu Zhanhe knows that Zhu Zhanhe will never target indiscriminately.

Therefore, he will use strategies such as setting up suspicious formations, encircling Wei and saving Zhao, but if this is the case, he does not have to bring troops here at all, let alone bring so many soldiers.

"His Royal Highness..."

Getting along with each other for many days made Qian Zhong relax a lot when facing Zhu Zhanhe.

If it was before, no matter what question he had, he would keep it in his heart, unless Zhu Zhanhe asked him, otherwise he would not take the initiative to ask.

But now, he has a lot of respect for Zhu Zhanhe, but he is no longer afraid.

It has to be said that Zhu Zhanhe's reputation is still very scary. As early as more than ten years ago, his reputation was able to stop children from crying at night.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Zhanhe turned his head with a smile, looking at Qian Zhong who was hesitant to speak.

"Want to ask when we will send troops to attack?"

Qian Zhong didn't speak, but still nodded with embarrassment.

"You can't do this." Zhu Zhanhe patted Qian Zhong's shoulder with a smile, and pulled him to sit down.

"You have to know that whether you are a general or a soldier, obeying orders is the first thing you need to learn. The second thing you need to learn is not bravery, but patience."

"You should know that what is important in war is the right time, the right place, and the harmony between the people. The right time is more important than the right place. Sometimes a suitable weather or terrain can allow you to win effortlessly, but it will also ruin what has been laid. victory."

"I know that there used to be such an army that fought in such a severe cold place like ours. They lay in ambush in the snow, waiting for the enemy to pass by."

"But it's a pity that the enemy didn't arrive at the time they expected, but they didn't move even a single bit. Even in the end, they were frozen into ice sculptures in the ice and snow, and they stuck to their positions."

……

Qian Zhong stared blankly at Zhu Zhanhe, as if he was shocked by what Zhu Zhanhe said, and seemed to have doubts about what Zhu Zhanhe said, but he didn't dare to question it.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhanhe smiled, but didn't say anything.

Although this incident happened in history, anyone would be skeptical if it was told in this era.

After all, in this era, deserters frequently appear, because the thinking of the country and the nation is not a little bit worse than that of later generations.

Therefore, Zhu Zhanhe didn't explain anything to Qian Zhong, but just patted him on the shoulder and stood up.

"Choushi attacks tonight, you are the vanguard."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Zhanhe left, leaving Qian Zhong alone in place.

However, what Qian Zhong didn't know was that after Zhu Zhanhe turned a corner, in a place where he couldn't see, he whispered something to Zhu Ling beside him.

"It's the first time this kid is on the battlefield, so you should follow along, and send a few more royal guards to keep an eye on him."

"It's okay to get a little injury. The eagle wants to take off. These are what he has to go through, but be careful not to let him suffer life-threatening injuries."

"Yes!" Zhu Ling bowed his head and said yes.

For his own people, especially the son's guard, Zhu Zhanhe has always been so kind that he has nothing to say.

……

That night.

Qian Zhong was almost counting the time with his fingers. Was it the first time he wore the slightly wide armor? After all, he was Qian Yong's child, and he had trained kung fu in battle before.

But at that time, I didn't have the feeling of being so excited that I couldn't sleep at all.

After finally getting through the ugly time, Qian Zhong didn't feel sleepy because he didn't sleep in the first half of the night. On the contrary, he was in high spirits, and his eyes were full of anticipation.

When the sound of assembly spread throughout the camp, Qian Zhong was the first to stand up and run out of the tent.

However, he did not see Zhu Zhanhe.

"Put this away." Zhu Ling tied a wooden belt around Qian Zhong's waist, which belonged to a hundred households.

"In this battle, you are the second vanguard, leading thousands of people, and charge after a swarm of rockets shoots."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Ling beckoned Qian Zhong to follow, and came to the left side of the Chinese army.

"Here are the soldiers you lead, and their life and death are in your hands."

Qian Zhong, who was originally excited, suddenly sank when he heard these words.
