Liu Chun and Zhu Di plan to continue to go north and complete the goal of inspecting the world...... It's just that neither of them was in a hurry to leave, just a month ago, news suddenly came from Daming that Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo, had died of illness.

I don't know what kind of illness I have, but the time is very short, and it is said that I invited someone to drink and listen to the play the day before, and I was happy until the second half of the night. At noon the next day, the people were gone.

Walk very crisply.

"Blessed is he!" Xu Zengshou subconsciously hugged his fat belly and sighed at Liu Chun: "I'm not too young at this age, I don't know when I'll leave." I'm afraid this is the last time we get together. ”

Xu Zengshou raised his head, trying not to let his tears fall, but when it was really sad, how could he hold back.

"Liu Chun, no matter what, we are all friends, brothers, iron buddies! To be able to get to this day is something I never dreamed of, nothing else, as long as I can use it, a note. I, Xu Zengshou, and the descendants of our Xu family, will never stand idly by! ”

Liu Chun was also in a state of flux, "Fourth brother...... That's what I'll call you! ”

Xu Zengshou is the fourth oldest among the brothers, but Liu Chun rarely calls him the fourth brother.

"At this point in us, personal gains and losses are trivial...... For the sake of the entire Han family, no one can slack off! ”

Xu Zengshou nodded vigorously, dividing the world and establishing a feudal state, for what?

It is not that the whole world is brought under the rule of the Han people.

This is the real world under the king's land, in the past any dynasty, can only sit in the well to watch the sky, only the Ming Dynasty, the sun and the moon hang high, the mountains and rivers are forever.

Even Xu Zengshou can feel that their generation is standing at a dizzying height...... It's a really good feeling, but it's also really tiring.

Almost everyone is desperate...... Zhu Gaochi worked hard to coordinate the country and promote development. And Zhu Gaoxu is studying science and technology, providing technical conditions for this huge world.

Zhu Gaosui is busy with finance, Yu Qian is busy with supervision, and Zhou Wang Zhu Hu is busy with medical epidemic prevention...... There were so many vassal kings, so many soldiers, and merchants, domestic workers, and common people who farmed the fields...... Everyone is working hard to turn pieces of barbarian land into a paradise suitable for the Han people.

It's a battle that can't be more ambitious!

Zhu Di and Liu Chun did not go directly to the Americas, but went around in a big circle, and it was just a task to deploy tasks to various places.

Nanyang should be merged into the Ming Dynasty, and Tianzhu should be integrated and become the helper of the Ming Dynasty.

As for Xu Zengshou and these people, they want to manage their own vassal kingdoms, spread Han civilization, and contribute to them.

None of them are young anymore, and they may not really have many opportunities to meet, but how fortunate they are to be lucky to live in this great world.

Zhu Di and Liu Chun have been thinking about it for more than half a year, but they are still reluctant to go.

The fleet from Daming has reached an astonishing 500 ships, not including the crew, and there are 18,000 soldiers and horses alone.

While they were still staying, bad news suddenly came from the direction of Europe...... Zheng Guogong Changmao died.

In fact, when he came to Europe, he was no longer young.

In the past few years, he has worked diligently, striving to expand his influence in Europe, fighting and co-opting, and exhausting himself, without a moment of relaxation.

Two years ago, he had become ill from hard work, but he kept it a secret and never told anyone, until not long ago, while inspecting a fort, Chang Mao vomited blood and fainted.

After he came to his senses, he only said one sentence, he handed over all military affairs to Lan Yong, and then Chang Mao fainted again until he died.

Without Chang Mao's command, the situation of the Ming army suddenly became much worse.

Those countries that originally submitted to the Ming Dynasty moved one after another, and even a pair of old enemies in the past, Britain and France, secretly hooked up and partnered...... This is not unusual, after all, for European countries, almost every king is a relative...... They can not only fight in the dark, but also get together and act in an embarrassed way.

Although Lan Yong is a reckless person, after so many years, he has also become extremely cunning. At least to deal with these two or five boys in Europe, his wisdom is completely enough.

Lan Yong first kept it a secret, and in the name of the exercise, he transferred the army to Calais, with his back to the sea, and a fleet of ships patrolling the sea, and he first gained a firm foothold.

Immediately afterwards, he concentrated grain and prepared food for 3,000 soldiers that could be eaten for three years.

Even hoarded a staggering amount of bacon, sausages in the castle...... If you want to eat fresh meat, it is not impossible, and you can only rely on the help of the navy.

After all, Lan Yong has figured out the situation in Europe.

The whole of Western Europe, including southern Europe, is still quite a group. After heading east, the situation changed a lot.

The Ming fleet found a natural ice-free harbor in the north, and through this port within the Arctic Circle, the Ming could connect with the barbarians.

and from them in exchange for livestock and wheat.

You can even hire some barbarians to act as minions.

All in all, Lan Yong did his best and prepared for battle.

And the battle was a little later than he thought.

After a long period of coordination, complicated bargaining, and fierce quarrels, the monarchs of Europe were finally under the command of the Habsburgs.

An onslaught was launched against the Ming army located in Calais.

As many as 80,000 people, holding high the cross flag, pounced wildly.

In their words, it's about expelling these damned Eastern demons and protecting the security of Europe...... In their descriptions, Da Ming is simply the embodiment of a demon.

In order to prolong their lives, they would capture children in the West, dry them into dried meat, and eat them. They also break Western customs and even forbid open defecation...... Even this has to be taken care of, or is it not human?

In the face of Europe's cry, Lan Yong was not dismissive at all.

No matter how nice it sounds, the essence is one, that is, you can't see Daming making a fortune!

Since establishing a foothold in Europe, the Ming Dynasty regulated the war between Britain and France, and then went all out to do business with all parties and accumulate wealth.

Frankly speaking, Chang Mao and Lan Yong are not excessive...... But how did Western monarchs tolerate the outflow of gold and silver?

What frightened him even more was that the Ming Dynasty was more and more assertive, impacting the West.

In particular, their feudal system, the hereditary aristocracy, was strongly criticized.

There were also peasant uprisings in Europe.

It's tolerable, it's unbearable!

More than a dozen countries, hundreds of lords, formed an army of nearly 100,000.

From all sides, the siege of the port of Calais, with only three thousand men.

On the first day of the battle, the European coalition forces paid the price of 1,300 men, while on the side of the Ming army, only three people died.

The knights of Europe were dressed in heavy armor, rode tall horses, and carried long swords...... Before the battle, they let their slaves, over and over again, sort out the armor weapons...... And then, full of confidence, rush to the battlefield, happily - to the death!

The invincible cavalry was defeated, and the exasperated monarchs rolled out artillery, which was their trump card.

The heavy and clumsy artillery, covered by the fire of the Ming army, had nothing to hide, and all of them were blown into scrap metal.

For a whole month, they didn't even get a single hair!

Annoyed and angry, the European monarchs came up with a brilliant idea, and they drew young men from all over the country...... Those old and decaying knights are no match for the devil...... Only young people who are full of vitality can not be afraid of life and death, and under the protection of the gods, they will be invincible!

Fight!

Don't let the fight stop!

Europa will not surrender!
