At five o'clock in the afternoon, it rained lightly.

On the Rhine River, countless floating bridges have been built, and endless streams of French soldiers are heading towards the river bank in the rain.

Louis XIV lay in the gorgeous carriage, staring blankly at the army crossing the river outside the window, feeling complicated and uncomfortable.

Under the powerful command of Prince Kong Dai, the French army escaped from the Ming army by chance. However, the French soldiers and horses are completely different from the heroic spirit when they went to war. At this time, they were all dejected, and from time to time, seriously injured people could not save them and abandoned them in the wilderness.

Many of them were injured by Ming army bullets or were stabbed by Ming army bayonets. The pain was indescribable. In addition, the French army lacked military doctors and was busy fleeing. Many injured soldiers and officers died in a very short period of time.

This time, 150,000 French troops were defeated and returned, with more than half of the casualties and almost wiped out. Louis XIV's psychology suffered an unprecedented severe blow, and he became much older in an instant.

Louis XIV kept staring out, recalling the smoke and shouts of gunfire on the battlefield today, as well as the neighing of the war horse and the light and shadow of the sharp blade.

He seemed to be summarizing why he lost?

Prince Kong Dai staggered to the carriage, with an extremely haggard expression and whispered: "Your Majesty, the whistle behind us, our army finally got rid of the Ming army's pursuit, but... but the Polish army was wiped out, King John III was captured by the Ming army, and the other countries were not clear, and it seemed that there was a lot of luck..."

Louis XIV's face suddenly pale and coughed violently: "Send the order, speed up and return home!"

Prince Kong Dai was shocked and persuaded: "Your Majesty, I suggest retreating to Vienna first to reorganize the army. If our French army returns to China, the coalition forces will definitely have no room for a turnaround. Wouldn't the Ming army be more powerful?"

After hesitating for a moment, he said again: "If the Ming army brought great victory to attack Vienna, the fragmented Holy Roman Empire would definitely be shattered. By then, France will lose its barrier. The Ming army will be more aggressive and continue to fight. The world will be in danger..."

After this battle, the Holy Roman Empire was abolished. How could more than 300 lords and nobles who were independent of each lord and noble, withdrew from the torrent of the Ming army's cavalry?

Louis XIV shook his head and said quietly: "No, the Ming army is powerless to fight the west again. If they continue to fight, the number of casualties will increase exponentially. I know Zhu Tianwu, and he can't bear to leave his children..."

Louis XIV coughed violently again and said in a deep voice: "Send the order and return home quickly, don't provoke them again!"

Prince Kong Dai looked sad. The Sun King, a hero of his generation, feared the Ming army like a tiger. It was so sad, but he still passed the order according to the words.

Looking at his expression, Louis XIV comforted: "This battle, France, is it the case with severe losses. Isn't it the case in the Ming Dynasty? Only by keeping a low profile can we make a comeback. If we continue to fight, France's dominance in Europe will no longer exist..."

Prince Conde immediately thought of England and Portugal, which had never participated in the war, and finally understood His Majesty's overall view.

After Daconde left, Louis XIV was unable to close his eyes and felt extremely painful in his heart. At the Battle of Schelin, France was seriously injured!

After twenty years of rule, he personally took charge, was diligent in governing and strengthening his troops, which made France the first dominant in Europe. However, today he returned to the pre-liberation of the war!

A small mountain ruined countless elite French troops. Fortunately, Prince Kong Dai was successful in planning the country and preserved some troops, otherwise...

Louis XIV looked at Dongfang angrily and gritted his teeth and said, "Zhu Tianwu, one day, I will avenge my shame!"

.........

It's six o'clock in the afternoon, and it's sunny after the rain.

Zhu Cilang rode his horse to inspect the devastated battlefield, and a great battle recorded in historical materials ended like this.

The Battle of Schelin ended with the brilliant victory of the Ming army.

The entire battle ranged from the Ming army pursuing the Polish army to the coalition's reinforcements entering the field. The Ming army showed that the enemy was weak and sent people to negotiate and retreated for thirty miles, luring the enemy into depth for the first time.

Then the coalition forces pursued each other again, as if brainwashed by a pyramid scheme organization, and gradually entered the trap of the Ming army.

It can be said that in the entire Eight Emperors Battle, Zhu Cixuan defeated the main force of the European Union in the shortest time with a textbook-like brilliant victory, and strongly crushed the Anti-Ming Alliance!

Emperor Zhu used bold and fierce tactics and superb ghost operations to easily remove the difficult European troops in just a few seconds, just like playing games.

Looking at the brilliant martial arts that shocked the world throughout Emperor Tianwu’s life, the Battle of the Eight Emperors on the battlefield in the 32nd year of Tianwu is the most dazzling classic example!

In this battle, Zhu Cilang, with his unparalleled military genius, commanded thousands of troops, swept across the Dharma King and broke the kings' courage, and fled, thus laying the magnificent hegemony of the Ming Empire in one fell swoop! It made the entire 17th century world tremble!

Later generations praised the poem: The mighty and bright figures of heaven, the soul of heaven is condensed in history, the Eight Emperors fight the giant flag scroll, and the chess game is planned to determine the universe!

The audience chanted like a tide, and Zhu Cilang slowly glanced at the land and sighed: "Since the Western Expedition, the royal army has won many successive victories, but there have been many casualties."

Everyone looked gloomy. Indeed, since the Western Expedition to attack Tsarist Russia, enemies have appeared one after another, disrupting the Ming army's repeated deployments.

This time, the European Union fought hard. Although the Ming army defeated the strong enemy, it suffered not much losses.

The Nanfu Army of Li Dingguo and the Beiting Army of Han King were vanguards or flanks, fighting against the enemy again and again, with a total casualties of more than 30%, and the second army suffered more than 10,000 casualties.

There are also the Tianwu, Shenwu Army and Longwu Army on the middle battlefield, with a total casualties of more than 5,000.

In addition, due to the lack of environmental and local conditions, a large number of non-combat personnel were reduced by more than 10,000 people.

From the Western Expedition to the present, the Ming army has suffered more than 40,000 casualties in the past two years.

Since the beginning of the army, the losses have not been so severe...

Of course, the Ming army's harvest was also huge during this Western Expedition. The total number of enemy troops was beheaded by more than 200,000, captured a large number of prisoners of war, and even killed hundreds of noble generals from various countries.

Such a brilliant victory is even more than the Mongolian expedition in that year!

During the Mongol Empire's expedition to the west, in addition to conquering cities and territories, it also slaughtered tens of millions of civilians of all races, and even rumored over 100 million.

This time, the Ming army's western expedition was mostly about eliminating the enemy, and implemented propaganda and brainwashing of civilians, giving benefits, and rarely killing innocent people.

Unless you encounter someone who is particularly stubborn and resists repeatedly, you will destroy all your clans!

Listening to everyone's discussion, Zhu Cilang just listened calmly. He looked at Yuntian, took a deep breath, and thought to himself: "In this battle, Baipai has no chance to turn around in a hundred years!"

At least in this world, the Ming Dynasty is still there, and there will be no luxurious scenes of the Qing Dynasty being beaten by the barbarians and forcibly stolen the country, and there will be no shame of a century-old national humiliation!

Some are just the glorious Ming Dynasty that all nations worship and imitate!

In the next few days, the Ming army rested on the spot, pursuing the coalition forces everywhere and carrying out a soul-summoning ceremony.

Facts proved that this battle was indeed very thorough. Not to mention the coalition forces were dispersed everywhere, even King John III of Poland and King Carlos II of Spain were captured.

The next day, good news came again, and the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I was also arrested!

As for those European nobles, there are countless, and there are a lot of Duke Hou Earls!

The monarch of the seven kingdoms arrested three at once. This matter would not be specially promoted, and it would definitely be recorded in history, allowing future generations to feel the strength of the Ming army in this battle!

After the soul-summoning and worshipping, Zhu Cilang began to execute the prisoners.

According to the original rules, the nobles captured by the Ming army would be used immediately if they were useful, and all the useless ones were taken back to the Xingguo mine in the Ming Dynasty to serve hard labor.

However, when the Ming army fought in the west, these people caused considerable casualties to the Ming army, how could they let it go?

Zhu Cilang ordered people to select some people who were of little use and took them back to China for hard labor, and all the nobles who issued the order to be executed!

Of course, twenty people were shaken out of them by lottery, cut off their ears and noses, and castrated them as deposed people, allowing them to return to their country to report their demise, and word of mouth shocked the country.

The three captured kings, except for the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I, who planned to keep him as the leader of the party to attack Vienna, were executed like the Spanish king!

Everyone was sent to the road according to the execution method of the Ming army shooting.

......

On July 20, 1932, when the Ming army crossed the Rhine River and was about to enter Vienna, the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, a rush from the country was sent at an accelerated speed of 800 miles a day and night.
