Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 470 Everyone who is obsessed with power deserves to die

Przemyshl, the camp of the Ming army, and the big tent of the Chinese army.

Zhu Zhanhe has already packed his things and is ready to return to Vienna.

However, the return mentioned here does not mean that all the army will return, he just wants to bring back less than 3 people first.

This has already reached the gate of the Kingdom of Poland, and the Kingdom of Poland can be wiped out if you try harder. There is no reason to stop at this time.

He decided to return because time was running out.

Now that the end of the new year is approaching, he will leave at this time, and when he returns to Shuntian Mansion, it will be after the new year at the earliest. If something unexpected happens on the way, he may not even be able to catch up with the birth of his own child.

In addition, it was also because he received the news from Qian Yong that he knew that the battle situation in the Kingdom of Poland had been decided and there would be no possibility of a reversal.

Although he hasn't been able to meet Qian Yong yet, he has already made the following arrangements.

He sent someone to send a letter to Wang Jinghong, asking him to go all the way north. First, to prevent the enemy troops from the territory of Great Poland in the north from going south to help Krakow, and second, to let Wang Jinghong return to sea as soon as possible.

After all, the Kingdom of Poland is about to perish. As long as Krakow is captured later, Qian Yong will be able to rush to the rescue of Jian Xiao and Zhu Sanfeng, and then win the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

Next year, the Ming army will only face enemies in Western Europe.

When Wang Jinghong returned to sea, he could lay the groundwork in advance and go to the English Channel to stop the English. After all, the Kingdom of France is also one of Zhu Zhanhe's goals. If there is no Wang Jinghong in the English Channel, the Kingdom of France may not be able to stand up.

In addition, Aachen, the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, is not very far from the North Sea. When Wang Jinghong's fleet passed by before, the Holy Roman Empire was shocked. Even the fall of Vienna had something to do with this.

Therefore, the return of Wang Jinghong's fleet to sea can also play a role in promoting the Sino-European battlefield to a certain extent.

After making arrangements for Wang Jinghong, Zhu Zhanhe arranged for the generals of the main force he led.

He asked Fan Zhong to lead the main force temporarily, but he didn't want Fan Zhong to lead the army to fight, but let him be stationed here. When Qian Yong came, Qian Yong would take over the affairs here.

Let Fan Zhong lead the troops, the effect is definitely not very good, because the difference between Fan Zhong's status and Qian Yong's three is not 01:30 points, even Liu Qingwen of Qianhu and Xing Kun of Baihu.

But if it's just a short stay, it should be fine, and there's no need to worry about Fan Zhong having second thoughts.

"What about you?" Zhu Zhanhe put away the more important secret letters by himself, and at the same time asked Qian Zhong without raising his head.

"Me?" Qian Zhong was taken aback for a moment.

"His Royal Highness, I..."

"Okay, I got it," Zhu Zhanhe looked up at Qian Zhong after packing up the secret letter.

"Your father will come over within three days, so let's learn from your father when the time comes."

"With this little ability, it's not even a star and a half behind your father back then."

"Yes..." Qian Zhong was a little depressed, but he didn't complain.

Because he knew that his performance was indeed unsatisfactory.

During this period of time, Zhu Zhanhe continuously received battle reports from all parties, all of which were great victories. Only the main force here lost hundreds of people in the attack on a small town like Przemyšl.

Of these, more than half of this number was directly attributable to him.

"Okay!" Patting Qian Zhong on the shoulder, Zhu Zhanhe walked out of the tent.

"You are still young, and your father is still in his prime. Don't worry, you still have plenty of time."

……

Zhu Zhanhe's figure had disappeared into the tent, but Qian Zhong was still standing in the tent blankly, staring blankly at the direction Zhu Zhanhe left.

Although he had never said it before, he had always been suspicious because he didn't know why his father was so devoted to Zhu Zhanhe.

No matter what era it is placed on, no matter who it is placed on, a person can work for a benefactor without complaint or regret for more than 20 consecutive years because of a life-saving grace.

Among them, I have encountered life-threatening risks, encountered the risk of class changes, and even made my family not feel like a family, but I never complained.

Although it is said that life-saving grace is difficult to repay, but in fact there is a limit.

Considering what Qian Yong and the others have done for Zhu Zhanhe, even if they turned around and left immediately, I am afraid that not many people in this world would say anything wrong about them.

But they have never complained or regretted.

But now, Qian Zhong seems to understand his father a little bit.

Sometimes, it is not unreasonable for some people to be followed by others. Such people always have one or more shining points that can impress people.

Maybe it's human nature, maybe it's something else.

In Zhu Zhanhe, Qian Zhong may not be able to find the shining point that can make his father follow him for 20 years without complaint or regret, but he saw a shining point that is enough to impress himself.

As far as the present is concerned, Qian Zhong seems to be unable to find anyone who is in a high position, but he still does his best to train the sons of his subordinates, personally teaching them, and even making some sacrifices for it.

"Father..." Looking at the direction where Zhu Zhanhe disappeared, Qian Zhong muttered to himself.

……

Meanwhile, Vienna.

Xing Kun stood at the top of the city, watching the enemies in the northwest through a telescope.

It has been four days, since the enemy arrived in Vienna, they have launched attacks for four consecutive days, and it took a long time to fight. Even though the casualties were heavy, they still did not give up.

This made Xing Kun very puzzled.

He knew that Vienna was the home of the Habsburg dynasty, but it's okay if the house was stolen, right?Wasn't His Highness Shizi still forced to leave Yingtian Mansion back then, what happened?Is it bad?
After eighteen years of planning, His Royal Highness still took back the position that may not have belonged to him originally, but he was the most outstanding and made the most contributions.

In contrast, the brainless attack of the Habsburg dynasty made Xing Kun unable to understand.

Picture what?Is this Vienna so good?Is your family hidden in the city or are you planning to rescue your family?

Give me a break!

The Ming army is about to turn this place upside down, and the people in the city on the day of the fall of Vienna, whether they are nobles or commoners, have corresponding ways to deal with it.

Even if they took back Vienna, they would take back an empty city.

"How is it?" Liu Qingwen went up to the top of the wall and stood beside Xing Kun.

"Unclear." Xing Kun put down the binoculars and shook his head slightly.

"I wonder if the enemy is coming out in full force, ready to fight to the death. The number of troops is not right. Some are too many. This does not match the number of enemies and the speed of support we encountered before."

"How many times can we annihilate the enemy these days? At least seventy to eighty thousand, right? But they still have no less than seventy to eighty thousand troops."

"When we fought in southern Europe before, they couldn't even gather 10 people. How can they gather so many people now? They are braver than each other, and they don't fear death at all."

"I don't know too well, but I probably have a guess." Liu Qingwen took the telescope handed over by Xing Kun and looked at the enemy's position in the distance.

In fact, he couldn't see anything, he could only see the moving figures, because the enemy was too far away.

But this is also normal, after all, this is not when the two armies are at war, but during the truce.

The enemy's camp can't be set up right under your nose, right?Didn't you still see everything?

"Oh?" Xing Kun's eyes lit up.

"If there are no accidents, we may not be able to capture many young and strong prisoners in the future. His Royal Highness's previous plan to disintegrate the enemy's internal affairs through population trade may not work in the Holy Roman Empire."

"Why?" Xing Kun didn't quite understand.

"Let's put it this way." Liu Qingwen put down the binoculars and turned to look at Xing Kun very seriously.

"If the Northern Yuan Dynasty came back, how many Han people do you think are willing to submit to them, and how many Han people are willing to fight to the death?"

"Hmm..." Xing Kun frowned, and replied somewhat uncertainly.

"There will definitely not be fewer people who resist, but there will definitely be people who surrender, but it is estimated that there are not many, at least compared to the beginning, there will definitely be a lot less."

"That's the reason." Liu Qingwen spread his hands.

"After these two years of fighting, the nobles and royal family of the Holy Roman Empire may have rendered us as vicious ghosts who commit all kinds of crimes and kill people. It belongs to the kind that the more you surrender, the faster you die. An impression that if you don't resist, you will die, and you even bring the whole family to die together."

"This may be the reason why they were able to mobilize so many troops, and you should have also discovered that the enemy troops who have attacked the city these days have mixed abilities, and many of them seem to have never fought before. experience."

"Of course, this is all my guess." Seeing that Xing Kun still seemed to have doubts, Liu Qingwen explained with a smile.

"Also, even if I'm right, the situation won't necessarily be too bad."

"People are always afraid of death. When more people around you die, the fear becomes stronger, and it will always reach a critical point."

"Also, it's not necessarily a bad thing."

"Report!"

While the two were talking, a scout came galloping from afar, all the way towards the city gate.

"Report to Liu Qianhu! Our army was found in the northeast direction. According to the password of Shizi's guards, it is His Royal Highness who brought people back!"

Liu Qingwen and Xing Kun turned their heads to look at each other at the same time when they heard the words, and they both got the same answer from each other's eyes.

"go!"

……

At the same time, three miles northwest of Vienna.

Albert, the Habsburg dynasty and one of the two counts of the Kingdom of Hungary, is doing the final pre-war mobilization.

Most of the troops he brought this time were summoned by the Holy See in the name of jihad, so he didn't cherish these soldiers, but let them die one after another.

Why?Because from the perspective of the Habsburg dynasty, these forces will be the power of Sigismund, not the Habsburg dynasty.

They did want to repel the Ming army and take back Vienna, but they also wanted to break Sigismund's arm.

In their view, with the help of the Kingdom of Denmark, the Kingdom of Poland, and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, even if the eastern and northern battlefields cannot be won, they can still be delayed for a year and a half.

At that time, Zhu Zhanhe's disadvantage of dividing too many troops will be revealed, and their opportunity will come.

However, they still don't know that because of Zheng He's appearance, all their plans have been lost, and even the Kingdom of Poland is about to enter the abyss of extinction, and the Kingdom of Denmark is too busy to take care of itself.

It can only be said that for a person who is obsessed with power, no matter what kind of ending they encounter, it is not an exaggeration.
