Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 488
"You want to..." The old man spoke again, but different from last time, this time he spoke with a hint of suddenness.

"That's right." Leopold nodded, his face full of confidence.

"The English have always wanted to take down the Kingdom of France, and in fact they are about to achieve it. The Kingdom of France is already in jeopardy under their attack."

"The English would have crossed the Loire and swallowed the whole kingdom of France if it hadn't been for the constant assistance of Jolanda of Aragon."

"Before, Yolanda of Aragon reached an agreement with the Ming army. The Ming army's sea fleet sent troops to the English Channel to block the way for the English to go south. Therefore, the Ming army is the natural enemy of the English."

"And Paris..."

Having said that, Leopold glanced at everyone present, and said firmly: "It is currently under the control of the English! Even the apparent king of the Kingdom of France is Henry VI of England!"

This wave of calculations by Leopold is quite reasonable. After all, the enemy of an enemy is a friend, even if it is only a short-lived friend, but it is still a friend.

After the first battle in Brunswick, the Habsburg dynasty finally knew how terrible the Ming army was, and also understood that the Ming army was comparable to the Yuan army back then, and even better with the addition of firearms.

Therefore, union is necessary.

"I have a question." Albert seemed to be at odds with Leopold, and questioned again.

"I'm not against this decision, because I also know that we don't have any particularly good places so far, but there is one question that I don't know if Duke Leopold has thought about it."

"I know that our goal is the Holy Roman Empire. Even if the Holy Roman Empire is destroyed in the future, as long as we repel the Ming army, we will at most not participate in the struggle for the Kingdom of France, but Yolanda of Aragon Woolen cloth?"

"Yolanda of Aragon is an ally of the Ming army. Yolanda wants to swallow the Kingdom of France wholeheartedly, but he doesn't want to leave it to anyone else."

"And the Kingdom of Ragon and the Kingdom of Castile are one and the same. The two have been aligned for a long time, both on the surface and in reality."

"The naval fleet of the Ming army is already so powerful that even the Principality of Venice is powerless to resist. The Kingdom of Aragon and the Kingdom of Castile are both established maritime powers."

"Is there any hope of victory for the English? Or..."

Having said that, Albert looked directly into Leopold's eyes without flinching: "Is there any hope for us?"

Hearing what Albert said, everyone present fell silent.

From contempt at the beginning to recognition of reality later, and now to the fear of the Ming army, the people of the Habsburg dynasty have experienced several ups and downs in mood and cognition in just three years.

The madness of the soldiers of the Ming army, the swarm of rockets that are far more efficient and farther than the Longbow team, plus the white phosphorous eggs and kerosene bombs that they think are like hellfire that can't be extinguished or shot...

For a while, the people of the Habsburg dynasty really didn't have much confidence.

"Don't worry." Unlike the others, Leopold seemed to be optimistic all the time.

"I know Yolanda of Aragon. She has great ambitions. She doesn't want the English to annex the Kingdom of France. Similarly, she doesn't want the Ming army to annex the Kingdom of France, because in her opinion, the Kingdom of France is already hers. It's in the bag."

"When the war enters the second half or even nears the end, Yolanda of Aragon will definitely be the first to jump out and stab the Ming army."

"So, as long as we make good deployment in the early stage, if we can control it well, our losses should not be very large. After the Ming army is expelled, we also have the strength to compete for the distribution of benefits."

"In that case..." Albert leaned back at Leopold's words.Spread your hands.

"I'm fine with that."

"What about the others?" Seeing Albert compromise, Leopold looked at the people around him again.

……

"Since everyone has no objections, then..." Seeing that no one spoke, Leopold stood up.

"Three days later, let's set off, the destination..."

"Paris!"

……

Meanwhile, Rome.

Today's Rome has completely become the garrison of the Ming army, and even the former Pope's state has now been cleaned up.

Today, the only European natives who can live on this land are slaves.

"Look, this is where you will fight in the future."

After getting off the boat, Zhu Zhanhe said to the Wu family brothers and Xue Shou.

"This place is different from the Central Plains. Although the way of war is not different, the culture here is very different from ours. Once ignored, it is very likely that the opposite result will be produced."

"When I arrive in Vienna, I will arrange for someone to tell you what to pay attention to here, and you have to remember it."

"Yes!" ×3.

The Wu family brothers and Xue Shou didn't think anything of it at first, in their view, war is nothing more than a contest of military strength and strategy, but seeing Zhu Zhanhe's seriousness, they still kept this sentence in their hearts.

In fact, it's not that the three of them are arrogant, but that this is beyond common sense for them, and it belongs to the gap in vision.

After all, in the Central Plains, there is no such thing as a single religion that overwhelms the sky, and the power of theocracy is greater than that of the king, isn't it?
"Welcome Your Royal Highness!" Liu Qingwen came up to greet Zhu Zhanhe when he saw that Zhu Zhanhe had finished speaking.

"Why are you here?" Although he didn't say it at first, Zhu Zhanhe was a little surprised that Liu Qingwen appeared here.

After all, Liu Qingwen and Xing Kun are important generals guarding Vienna. Xing Kun is still a little jerky.

"Report to His Royal Highness!" Hearing what Zhu Zhanhe said, Liu Qingwen's expression instantly became serious.

"You just came back, and the information was only sent out a month ago. It may have diverged from you, so you didn't receive the news."

"During your return to Beijing, the Holy Roman Empire gathered its troops and wanted to fight to the death."

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Zhanhe suddenly raised his hand, interrupting Liu Qingwen's words.

"If I heard correctly, what you just said was that between my departure and my return, the Holy Roman Empire gathered its troops and wanted to fight to the death?"

"His Royal Highness, yes!"

"Are you sure it was while I was away? Winter?"

"His Royal Highness, yes!"

"You continue." Zhu Zhanhe put his hand down, but his expression became serious.

"Yes!" Liu Qingwen also breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to report.

"When General Jian and General Qian received the news, they immediately summoned the soldiers to organize defenses. Later, General Qian began to use a large number of sleds to transport artillery, white phosphorous eggs, and kerosene bombs to the front line in order to block the enemy. Outside of Vienna and Krakow."

"Finally, the enemy and us met in Brunswick. General Jane used white phosphorous eggs and kerosene bombs to severely injure the enemy! A complete victory!"

"Where's the enemy's movement?" Zhu Zhanhe didn't want to hear these things, all he wanted to know was the outcome of the war.

If the war was lost, he needed to hear about the process and the reasons for the defeat, but if the war was won, then he didn't care about the process, but cared more about the follow-up enemy's movements.

"His Royal Highness! According to the latest battle report from the front line! General Jian has led people to approach the Free City of Bremen! General Qian Yong has also begun to leave Krakow and head towards the front line!"

Zhu Zhanhe nodded slightly. It is normal for wars and news to have a time lag. It is impossible to know what is going on ahead all the time like later generations. All they can know is the news brought by the last battle report.

"It seems that we don't have time to rest." Zhu Zhanhe turned his head to look at the Wu family brothers and Xue Shou.

"Liu Qingwen! Prepare the car! Dispatch troops! I will go to Vienna first, and then to Brunswick!"

"Yes!"
