Chapter 346: The Iron Tower Is Still Here

Chapter 346 The Tower is still there

After the Duke of Burgundy was captured, he wanted to escape, but the Ming army refused to talk to him about human rights and directly tied him up and captured Zhu Zhanzhen where he was, and took him aboard the steam carrier.

When he saw the huge and powerful tanks and the fierce artillery on the roadside, the Duke of Burgundy was so frightened that he almost peed.

He knew that this trip would never come back.

He was brought to Zhu Zhanzhen, and several soldiers escorted him to kneel in front of Zhu Zhanzhen.

Zhu Zhanchen walked in front of him, walked around him, and looked back and forth: "The famous Duke of Burgundy, I have some questions to ask you."

"Your Highness the Sea King, Your Highness the Sea King, I am willing to surrender." The Duke of Burgundy said hurriedly.

"You should know something about my best friend Zheng He."

The Duke of Burgundy was stunned by Zhu Zhanzhen's question, and said tremblingly: "Your Highness, that was all done by the king, I just helped redeem it."

"Really? Really? I'll give you a chance. If you did anything to Zheng He, tell me now, and I can forgive you and let bygones be bygones."

The Duke of Burgundy listened to what Zhu Zhanyang said, but after learning a little bit about the fate of Lady Catherine and Owen Tudor, he knew that he was lying. Anyone who had hurt Zheng He, Zhu Zhanyang

It's impossible to let anyone go.

He immediately denied it to Yaguchi: "It's true, Your Highness, it's true, I didn't do anything. I just redeemed Zheng He from the king and gave it to Ying Gelan. Please tell me, Your Highness."

Zhu Zhanzhen helped the Duke of Burgundy up and said with a slight smile: "Take the Duke of Burgundy down first. His bodyguards should know a lot about it, and they will examine him one by one."

Upon hearing this, the Duke of Burgundy's face turned dark, but he was forcibly taken away.

Hou Xian continued the interrogation.

On the other side, the Ming army marched straight into Rouen City. The defense of Rouen City was still vulnerable to the Ming Iron Army.

Joan of Arc led the team to Paris. In the next three days, Joan of Arc advanced along the way, conquering many French troops along the way, and spontaneously followed Joan of Arc.

When she arrived at the gates of Paris, the original cavalry of forty or fifty people now numbered over eight hundred, including many of Joan of Arc's old subordinates. They had long been tired of the insane mad king and his weakness and incompetence.

The prince, this time Joan of Arc stood up and raised her arms to respond, and there were many people from other places rushing over.

The Ming Dynasty's large army has not yet arrived. Joan of Arc's 800 people seem to be so weak under the city of Paris now. However, these 800 people are like a thousand troops, suppressing the morale of the people in Paris.

French royal family.

"Quickly, send me troops and kill them." Prince Charles of France was extremely angry when he learned that Joan of Arc was leading the men.

"Joan of Arc, you have betrayed France and God."

He issued three orders to attack Joan of Arc, but the French soldiers were unmoved.

"What's going on, what's going on?" Charles fell into a helpless rage.

Everyone seemed to think that their prince now looked very much like his father, the Mad King of France.

The thing he was most afraid of had finally appeared. He had been wary of Joan's high momentum and public opinion like waves, but now that Joan just appeared outside the city, his orders lost their effect.

The French have had enough of their royal family, and their saint is back.

"Your Highness, surrender."

"Your Highness, surrender."

"Your Highness, surrender."

The French ministers of the royal council begged for surrender one after another.

"How can we surrender when we have just recaptured Paris?"

"Your Highness, the Ming army will attack Cluen and Caen in three days. It will attack the city all the way. It is unstoppable. Now Your Excellency Joan of Arc is approaching the city. When the Ming army arrives, our army will never be able to fight."

Charles threw things frantically: "You are a group of cowardly people, you are eating French taxes, and now you actually speak for the enemy. I will kill you, kill you."

Charles unsheathed his sword and struck at the ministers, but was stopped by the guards who rushed in.

The imperial ministers tried their best to persuade, but they were also a little puzzled. Charles, who used to be the most cowardly during the war, always thought about peace talks with the Duke of Burgundy and Duke John, why now the Ming army has invaded but he has not

He has become the person least willing to negotiate peace.

After the Charles was under control, the French ministers reached a consensus in private.

Surrender, but not like the Ming Dynasty, but to Joan of Arc.

No one could capture Paris before France surrendered, not even Joan of Arc.

As the news spread, the people in Paris cheered for joy. This was a consequence they could happily accept.

It was not a nominal surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Joan of Arc was French, and this war was ultimately a war between the French themselves.

Although it is shameful to avoid looking like a fish, it is very useful.

Joan of Arc looked at the open city gate, urged her horse, and walked slowly in. Countless people in Paris were welcoming him. This prosperous city had been ravaged by war, and it was still prosperous but devastated.

Walking on the avenue, countless residents poured out from both sides of the street to watch her.

Back then, she had imagined the scene like this countless times. At that time, she represented France and wanted to take back Paris, and then followed Prince Charles, riding a tall horse like she does now, walking proudly on the Paris avenue, accepting flowers from the people.

and praise.

Now she finally did it, but now her flag has changed, there is no iris, there is no God's will, it is the gift of that person.

The flag given by France told her, God bless France, God is with you.

The King of the Sea gave her a flag and told her that where the flag was pointed by the sword of the Ming Dynasty.

God didn't do it, He did it.

After leading the Ming Dynasty's army to liberate Paris, she could imagine the peace and prosperity of Paris in the future. Although His Highness looked fierce and there was a river of blood in front of his throne, he was by no means an indiscriminate murderer of innocent people. Even he had already

Casualties were avoided as much as possible.

In addition to being decisive in killing the enemy, he was as tolerant as possible to the subordinates who attacked him and to the soldiers. A general's achievements would result in thousands of withered bones, but in front of him there were only the withered bones of the enemy.

When Joan of Arc led the team to the front of Notre Dame de Paris, countless believers had already come here. Joan of Arc was their saint and the saint of France.

But Joan of Arc felt very complicated when she looked at Notre Dame and the devout saints.

In Ingelland, he had been officially excommunicated by the Pope. Although the trial was informal and unfair, she was indeed no longer a believer in name.

The believers began to pray to Joan of Arc, and Joan of Arc looked at them. They looked at Joan of Arc as if they were looking at their savior and the God in their hearts.

In front of the huge Notre Dame de Paris, countless believers held crosses, lowered their heads, and some even knelt, all surrounding Joan of Arc.

"God, do you really exist?"

Throughout her life, she still believed in the God of God even when she was expelled from the church. She was shaken when she was burned in the fire, but Neptune's coming to save her also made her believe in the oracle even more.

But at this moment, when he was surrounded by so many believers and enjoying the highest courtesy, he was confused and began to question the existence of God for the first time.

Because believers regard her as a god.

God is in faith. If God is himself, does God still exist?

She clenched the Ming Dynasty dragon flag in her hand and shouted loudly: "All devout believers, God once gave me an oracle."

God said that the blue dragon from the east will drive away the Yinglan people.

God said, Fire for fire, blood for blood.

God said, God bless France.

God says, I will save you, my child.

"The blue dragon from the east has come to save us!!!" Joan of Arc shouted, raising her arms and the believers fell into endless carnival.

The news was sent back to Zhu Zhanyi, who gave a helpless smile: "I didn't expect that I still couldn't complete the copy with the Iron Tower still there. It would be too difficult to capture Paris."

"Your Highness, Your Majesty Jeanne d'Arc has liberated Paris, how can you say it has failed?"

"You don't understand. This is a high-level achievement that no one has achieved so far. Forget it, let's not say so much. How is the trial of the Duke of Burgundy? If there is no result, I will take them all to Paris. I want to receive it.

The Mad King and their prince will be tried together."

Hou Xian ran over quickly at this time: "Your Highness, some things have been found."

"Oh? Zheng He's matter has something to do with him, right?"

Hou Xian nodded: "One of his personal guards has been following him. According to the confession, when they redeemed Lord Zheng He, Lord Zheng He's arms were intact and there was no serious problem. It can be confirmed that Zheng He's arms were intact.

It has something to do with your lordship's arms and the Duke of Burgundy."

There was anger in Hou Xian's eyes, and Zhu Zhanzhen narrowed his eyes slightly, hiding his anger.

"Take these people to Paris first. The army will press over to prevent any turmoil. The tanks will also drive to the city of Paris."



Zhu Zhanzhen captured the city of Paris.

New Shanghai City is heavily guarded because most of the troops have been mobilized for the French War. New Shanghai City is now at its weakest defense. Although I feel that no one should dare to attack the Ming Dynasty, it is better to be careful.

.

On this day, the Suez Canal welcomed his most distinguished guest since its opening.

A resplendent warship slowly docked on the shore of New Shanghai City. It was the [Golden and Jade Glow Shines on the Heavens, the Ming Emperor's Throne Dragon Ship], the Ming Emperor's exclusive warship.

Xiaosheng has already brought all the new Shanghai City officials and the permanent officials of the Western Federation waiting here.

When the dragon boat docked, the chubby man who stepped out of the cabin made people feel that Emperor Hongxi was still alive.

Zhu Zhanyong has arrived.

Although this prince had no real power in the Ming Dynasty, his status was extremely respected.

When Zhu Zhanyong came over as an imperial envoy, Xiaosheng and others already knew about it.

Zhu Zhanyong walked forward with a smile, helped Xiaosheng up, and said with a kind face: "Xiaosheng, long time no see."

"The humble minister is frightened, but the prince is worried about me."

Zhu Zhanyong took Xiaosheng's hand and said: "In these years, you have followed fifth brother to so many places and done so many great things. You are fifth brother's good helper."

"The humble minister is terrified."

"There's no need to hold yourself back. Just do whatever you need to do. Don't delay things. I just learned that the fifth brother on the front line is still fighting. Let's go and get busy. The front line is fighting, and some of you people behind you are also busy."

"Your Majesty, His Majesty said that you were a blessed man, but as soon as you arrived, good news came back." The young man smiled and took out the frontline battle report he had just received while waiting for Zhu Zhanyong to disembark.

"oh?"

Xiaosheng opened the secret letter, and what was written on it was the news of the surrender of Paris.

"I didn't expect to get such good news when I first arrived." Zhu Zhanyong laughed immediately.

"It's thanks to your blessing, Your Majesty." Xiaosheng always speaks nicely.

Although he already holds a high position and holds real power, he still has a very low posture, which makes people feel very comfortable getting along with him.

"Now that France has surrendered, it seems that I can't stop. I have to quickly send the people my fifth brother wants to him."

Xiaosheng hurriedly stopped Zhu Zhanyong and said: "My lord, you have worked hard all the way and come from a long way. Now that the war has calmed down, it is not too late for you to rest for a while before leaving."

"That's not possible. It must have taken three days for this news to come back from the front line. The news came three days ago. We were afraid that it would be over if we rushed here."

Xiaosheng smiled faintly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, our news comes and goes very quickly now, and please think about it, Your Majesty, after winning the war, our Highness must first interrogate those people for Zheng He's affairs, right? You are the Imperial Envoy

, you have to take care of you first when you are here. These people you brought here must be the most respectful of etiquette and rules. If something excessive happens to our Highness, it will not be easy to explain. It is better to be out of sight and out of mind. You guys

Let’s take a rest in the city first, and I’ll send the news to His Highness first.”

Zhu Zhanyong looked at Xiaosheng with slight surprise: "No wonder the fifth brother likes you so much. You are thoughtful and don't be in a hurry. Let's wait for the news from the fifth brother. The fleet will rest in New Shanghai City first."

Xiaosheng is also worried that Zhu Zhanyong and the imperial envoy team will restrict what Zhu Zhanyong wants to do, and because it is Zhu Zhanyong who comes here, when Zhu Zhanyong arrives in Paris, it will be even harder for Zhu Zhanyong to do things beyond Zhu Zhanyong

.

Zhu Zhanyong is actually the direct brother of Zhu Zhanyong's mother, and his bloodline is suppressed.

In this capacity, he is the emperor's imperial envoy, representing the emperor, and his official status is suppressed.

Moreover, Xiaosheng knew that Zhu Zhanyong and Zhu Zhanyong had a good relationship since childhood, and there was absolutely no way that Zhu Zhanyong could prevent his third brother from coming to power. This was the ingenuity of Zhu Zhanji's selection of people.

Xiaosheng understood that Zhu Zhanzhen had just conquered France, just like he conquered Ingeland, he would definitely take action, especially against the culprit, the King of France.

The more people involved in these matters, the more complicated they become. There is no need for so many people to intervene, so Zhu Zhanyong was first kept in New Shanghai City, and several people who will be examined in the next three sessions were also kept. These people must

I will tell Zhu Zhanji everything I see.

Dealing with these various things is sometimes more tiring than fighting.
