Daming Military Empire

Chapter 701 Prince Daming, King of Germany

The "Lisbon Armistice Treaty" was signed, and the war between the Habsburg Alliance and the Anti-Habsburg Alliance of the Ming Dynasty came to an end. The entire Ming Empire rejoiced, and the Ming army scattered everywhere began to receive the fruits of victory.

In the Wuhe River Basin in the northeast of Europe, Sun Chuanting, Deputy Marshal of the Ming Empire, directly led his troops across the Wuhe River, disarming the 30 troops of Tsarist Russia, Sweden, and Denmark on the spot.

Immediately, Cao Bianjiao led the First Army Corps of the Frontier Defense Army to the imperial capital of Tsarist Russia to supervise the reduction of troops in Tsarist Russia;
Ma Xianglin led the Second Army of the Border Guards to Sweden to supervise the reduction of the Swedish army;
Hou Gongji led the Fourth Frontier Army Corps to Denmark to supervise the reduction of the Danish army;
Zu Dabi led the Third Army Corps of the Frontier Defense Army to retreat to the front line of Osan, and stationed at Osan City as the center;
And Sun Chuanting led the Qin Army's Shaanxi Xingdu Division to station and rest;
In the Westland area in central Europe, Hou Shilu, Deputy Marshal of the Ming Empire, directly led the First Corps of the Expeditionary Army to Rotterdam to supervise the reduction of the Dutch army.

Qin Gongming led the Liao army to stay in Münster and garrison there;
And Shi Kefa led the Second Army Corps of the Imperial Guard, and rushed back to Daming directly by train;

Near the Pyrenees Mountains in the southwestern part of the continent, Cao Wenzhao, the deputy marshal of the Ming Empire, led the Tianxiong Army, and immediately disarmed all the French troops in southern France on the spot, and then led the army to Paris to supervise France downsizing its troops;
Mao Wenlong, who was originally stationed in Lisbon, directly led the Dongjiang Army to the UK to supervise the reduction of the British army;
In terms of the navy, Zheng Chenggong directly led the Imperial Guard Corps of the Ming Empire, the Beiyang Navy, the Nanyang Navy, and the Beihai Fleet to move to Dunkirk and sit in Beihai to prevent the anti-Habsburg alliance powers from reneging on their promises and reducing their troops.

The Spanish and Portuguese fleets went to the ports of Dover and Calais to receive the land ceded by Britain and France.

Under the powerful force of the Ming Empire, the anti-Habsburg alliance powers did not dare to make the slightest change, and cooperated with the Ming army who came to supervise the reduction of troops and established Ming army garrisons.

Three months later, the disarmament of the anti-Habsburg alliance powers was completed as scheduled. Since then, all countries have only a small number of troops to maintain internal security, and they no longer pose a threat to the Ming Empire and its allies.

The war seems to be over like this, and the whole world seems to be at peace. Shouldn't it be time to think about something else?
On this day, Zhu Cijiong was sitting in the Imperial Study Room of the Qianqing Palace, thinking about what to do next, when Wang Chengen suddenly screamed outside: "My Majesty, the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire is calling."

His Majesty the Holy Roman Emperor, that is, his uncle, what will happen when he sends a telegram at this moment?
Zhu Cijiong immediately said loudly: "Submit it."

Soon, Wang Chengen came to him respectfully holding a telegram.

Zhu Cijiong took the telegram casually and looked at it. It turned out that his uncle asked him to help clean up the princes of the German Union, big and small, and make them obey orders obediently.

To be honest, he really doesn't want to take care of his uncle's mess, because it is a thankless thing for him, and it costs a lot of money, weapons and ammunition, and even the lives of a lot of soldiers of the Ming army. , To do such a thing of no benefit, he refused at first.

However, it just so happened that some time ago when he was lucky with the imperial concubine Princess Anna, Princess Anna told him about her son Zhu Hexuan.

It probably means that he wants to ask him to say hello to Ferdinand III or Philip IV, and to give Zhu Hexuan a piece of territory in the territory under the Habsburg dynasty, so that Zhu Hexuan can become a prince when he grows up. A carefree little nobleman.

My son, especially the second prince, naturally shouldn't be too wronged, at least he has to have a territory as big as the Principality of Austria, otherwise how can he live a carefree life in the future!
However, he really couldn't talk about asking Ferdinand III or Philip IV for such a large territory for a while. After all, they were not as vast as the Ming Empire.

If it doesn't work, let's set aside a piece of territory in the Ming Dynasty for the second prince Zhu Hecheng, but this is not in line with his original idea of ​​not giving land to the royal family.

If the second prince Zhu Hezhen had fiefdoms, the other princes would naturally also have fiefdoms, and it was unknown how many fiefdoms would be confiscated.

He can't guarantee that his offspring will be good people who love the people like their sons. If there are a few bastards like Fu Wang Zhu Changxun, then Ming Dynasty will be in trouble again.

He had been hesitating about this for a long time, but when he saw the telegram from his uncle, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind.

It seems good to take down the German Union and give his son Zhu Hexuan a territory. Anyway, Ferdinand III only wants the princes under him to be obedient. Can Zhu Hexuan not listen to his uncle's words!

Thinking of this, he immediately ran to Princess Anna's bedroom to present the treasure.

Princess Anna is naturally very happy. Of course he knows how big the German Union is, and Spain is only a little bigger than that.

So, within a few days, Princess Anna, holding the second prince Zhu Heji, took Zhu Cijiong's special train and rushed to the Holy Roman Empire under the escort of a large group of Jin Yiwei and Dongchang masters.

In name, she was going back to visit relatives, but in fact she was going to discuss with Ferdinand III to see if it would be okay to knock down the German Union and give it to her precious son as a territory.

Ferdinand III really had no objection to this, he really just wanted to make those princes obey, because those guys were always trying to use their status as electors to snatch the throne of the Holy Roman Empire every day, which made him restless .

Now, it would be better to replace him with his nephew. After all, behind him is the powerful Ming Empire. With this identity, those elector families will definitely obey. If you don’t accept it, try it. The Fort Alliance was overthrown by the Ming Empire, so what is a small German Alliance!
With Ferdinand III's promise, Princess Anna ran back happily and begged Zhu Cijiong to send troops to help her precious son take down that territory.

Grab the territory for his son, this reason is enough for Zhu Cijiong to make a move, besides, sending Zhu Heyu to Europe is also conducive to the stability of the Ming Empire, after all, apart from the eldest prince Zhu Heyu, only the second prince Zhu Heyu is behind the scenes Be tough, the other princes don't have much background, so they can't make any waves at all.

Ever since, Zhu Cijiong directly issued an order, ordering each of the six legions stationed in Europe to send 5 troops to assemble in Vienna. He also ordered Sun Chuanting to lead the Qin army to Vienna to preside over the overall situation. At the same time, he also ordered Qin Gongming to lead the Liao army to rush to Vienna Assemble to Vienna.

This time, the Ming army quickly assembled 50 troops, plus the 20 troops of the Holy Roman Empire, for a total of 70 troops.

In terms of weapons, Sun Chuanting not only brought a large number of armored combat vehicles, but in order to speed up the advance and reduce casualties, he even brought the latest high-explosive grenade!
Needless to say, in the battle that followed, in the face of armored chariots and high-explosive grenades, all bastions and castles were vulnerable. The Ming army destroyed all the way, and soon beat all the princes and elector families into obedience.

Immediately afterwards, Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand III announced the establishment of the Kingdom of Germany. The king was the second prince of the Ming Empire, his nephew Zhu Hexuan.

As for how Zhu Hezhen, who was still babbling in the arms of Princess Anna, managed the Kingdom of Germany, there was no need for anyone to worry about it. The Ming Empire had a lot of talented people who governed the country, and if they brought a few here, they were better than any high-ranking official in any country in Europe.
