Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1756, Unhappy Zhu Houzhao

"Boom boom~ boom boom!"

At the artillery position of the Ming Army outside Liangzan City, there are more than [-] Miyun cannons pouring shells at Liangzan City.

The power of the new-style blooming ammunition is getting stronger and stronger. With the whistling sound of the shells, the entire Ryazan City is like a boat swaying in the turbulent waves.

The Ryazan Principality's own artillery fire could not reach the Ming army outside the city at all, and then the Ming army's artillery fire grew eyes, and they were quickly cleaned up.

"Tata! Tata!"

Accompanied by fierce artillery fire, the Ming army began to launch a general attack on Ryazan City. On Ryazan City, the disgraced Ivan V felt like the end was coming. The artillery of the Ming people was too powerful.

What is even more frightening is that the Ming Dynasty has already launched an attack. Groups of Ming troops are riding on large trucks, and the front of the large trucks has templates of later generations added to attack.

When the truck reached a range of only a hundred meters from the city wall, it stopped, and then a rifle shot at the defenders on the top of the city.

The new rifles have a long range, high accuracy, and a fast rate of fire, which is not comparable to the smoothbore guns in the hands of the defenders. As long as someone shows up, they are almost certain to die.

Under the attack of countless bullets, there were heavy casualties on the wall in a blink of an eye. No one dared to show their heads, and it was useless to show their faces, because it was difficult for their muskets to hit the Ming army a hundred meters away.

Cannons bombarded continuously, rifles suppressed under the city head, and the engineers in charge of blasting quickly rushed to the city wall and under the city gate, and a large amount of explosives were quickly placed.

"boom!"

Soon, with a deafening bang, the entire city wall trembled violently, causing a large number of defenders to stagger and fall, before recovering.

They were shocked to find that a gap had been blasted in the city wall, and teams of Ming troops were alternately covering and launching an orderly attack, heading towards Ryazan City in an orderly manner.

"Surrender ~ Surrender!"

Ivan V touched the dust on his face and shouted in horror.

Originally, I wanted to struggle a few times to see if I could hold on for a few days, because the Principality of Moscow has already received a letter, and Vasily III has already organized an army of 20, and the army of the Principality of Poland and Lithuania is also on the way. Help quickly.

As long as they can persist for a few more days, there is still hope that they can wait for them to come to support.

But who knew that the Ming people's siege was so simple and brutal.

First the cannon opened the way, let’s blow it up first, and then you will be blown up. The powerful musketeers pressed up again. Relying on the advantages of the musket’s range, accuracy and rate of fire, it was very easy to suppress the defenders. .

Then, the powerful explosives directly blew up the gates and walls of the city, and killed them directly.

The key point is that even if they were killed, the Ming people's battles were still very orderly, and they alternately covered each other. Even if you wanted to sneak attack, it would be difficult to do it. Just shoot out of your head, and the opponent's bullets will come right away.

How is this fight going?
They are not opponents of the same level at all, and there is no comparison. It is a one-sided war. The opponent has already killed in less than an hour after the war started.

As Ivan V ordered people to raise their white underpants, groups of Ryazan soldiers also dropped their weapons and lined up to surrender to the Ming army.

"What a waste, I don't know how much more resistance, you surrendered before I started?"

Zhu Houzhao's expression was displeased, and he rode his tall horse into Liangzan City, feeling extremely depressed.

The reason why I rushed here all the time is to be able to have a good fight.

This Principality of Ryazan is said to be one of the most powerful principalities among the Slavs, but the number of defenders mobilized is actually less than 5, the key is that there are at least [-].

You also fought a good battle decently, and let yourself, the generalissimo, experience the fun of fighting, but in the end, you surrendered after a few sudden strokes.

"Marshal, this man is Grand Duke Ryazan!"

Soon, Huo Yun brought Ivan V to Zhu Houzhao.

"You are Grand Duke Ryazan?"

Zhu Houzhao looked at Ivan V in front of him and asked in Slavic.

When Ivan V heard it, his eyes lit up slightly. He didn't expect that the other party's coach, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty, could actually speak his own Slavic language.

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty!"

Ivan V hurriedly replied.

"You have an army of [-] people, and you have more than [-] residents. Why did you surrender so early?"

Zhu Houzhao said extremely displeased, as for the Slavic language, Zhu Houzhao has started to learn Slavic language since he was appointed as the Generalissimo of the Western Expedition. Although the learning time is very short, as long as this guy is willing to do things, when he starts to learn It is very fast, a proper genius, has a strong language talent, and is proficient in multiple languages.

Hearing Zhu Houzhao's question, Ivan V also couldn't laugh or cry.

The cannons and muskets of your Daming people are extremely powerful. If I don’t surrender and continue fighting, I will definitely die. You are asking such an idiotic question now.

I really don't know what's going on in your head.

"Because your Daming army is so powerful, we really can't beat it, so you surrendered early."

There is no way, and Ivan V can only speak truthfully.

"The commander-in-chief is very upset now. You are so weak that you don't even have any decent resistance."

Zhu Houzhao was depressed. This battle was really tasteless, because it was a crushing battle all the way, and no one could last more than an hour under the Ming army.

"Your Highness is unhappy?"

"Your Highness, our Principality of Ryazan has been rich in beauties since ancient times, and there are many beauties in the city who can quench Your Highness' fire."

Upon hearing this, Ivan V quickly said flatteringly.

"Really?"

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, his eyes shone slightly, then he looked at Ivan V and said, "How do your wife and daughter look?"

"If Your Highness likes it, I am willing to offer my two daughters to you as concubines."

Ivan V's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said.

"Um~uh~"

"Go ahead and bring your daughter here, and if she's not pretty, I'll cut off your head."

Zhu Houzhao immediately nodded in satisfaction, then waved his hand and said.

"Yes~"

Ivan V nodded helplessly, and immediately took people to his palace.

Only ten minutes later, Ivan V came back with his two precious daughters.

These two precious daughters are only sixteen years old, and they are beautiful and charming. I don't know how many princes and nobles have proposed to Ivan V, but he is still reluctant to marry them off.

"I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty!"

Yelena and Afrona saluted Zhu Houzhao with their heads down. They already knew their fate.

If she could become a woman for His Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, it would be a good ending. At least the other party has a noble status and is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Empire, so she will not insult her noble blood.

"Tsk tsk, good, good."

"I didn't expect to see such a beauty here."

Zhu Hou looked at the two beauties in front of him, his eyes were shining brightly. He didn't bring a single concubine with him for the sake of the war, and he has been holding back for more than a month now.

Seeing the two beauties in front of her now, she couldn't control herself immediately.

Liu Jin, who was by her side, immediately understood when she saw it. She gave a few small yellow doors a look, and they immediately understood, and hurried to get ready.

At the same time, Yang Yun, Huo Yun and others all understood and left one after another.

"Let's go, let's go, you teach me to learn the language of your servants, there are still many things I don't understand very well!"

Zhu Houzhao hugged the two beauties on the left and right and walked towards the temporary tent, ready to learn the Slavic language.

Ivan V looked at the back of Zhu Houzhao leaving with his woman, and he was silent. At this moment, he still had to be thankful that he gave his daughter away early.

At least from now on, she will be the wife of the prince of Ming Dynasty, so that she won't disgrace her noble blood, and at the same time, her life will definitely be guaranteed.

If you become a slave, you don't know where you will be sold in the future, and you don't know who you will become a slave to.

As for myself, I should be able to save my life.

A few hours later, Zhu Houzhao came out refreshed and summoned Ivan V again.

"Tell me about the situation in Moscow."

"I heard from your daughter that the Principality of Moscow is the most powerful among all the Slavic principalities, with an army of more than [-] people."

When Zhu Hou took care of Ivan V, he was much more pleasing to the eye.

His daughter is indeed very good, and she also made her anger disappear.

But women are just the condiments of life. He still hasn't forgotten his favorite marching and fighting. After conquering Ryazan City, the next step is to attack the Principality of Moscow.

As for the Ivan V in front of him, it is still very useful to keep him.

It is impossible for him to really kill everyone here.

Daming is not a barbaric grassland nomadic tribe who only knows killing.

All in all, there must still be some people left here, and how to govern in the future is naturally within the scope of consideration. Keep Ivan V here, and let him assist Daming in governing this fertile black land in the future. He must know more about the situation in Eastern Europe than himself.

Of course, just now his two daughters did not give him a little pillow, so that he would not kill wantonly, and for the sake of his daughters, they also wanted to keep him.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

"Grand Duke Vasily III of the Principality of Moscow has organized an army of 20 to resist the Ming army in Moscow. In addition, Grand Duke Ostrogski of the Principality of Poland and Lithuania has organized an army of tens of thousands to support Moscow."

"Your Highness, in fact, there is nothing to worry about. Although they have a large number, their equipment is far behind that of the Ming army."
