Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 1023
Wallenstein was really confused, he couldn't figure out why this old fox, Richelieu, was so kind to him.

With [-] cannons and [-] matchlock guns, they didn't even frown.

[-] war horses are still considered short, so they need to get him [-] horses!
Moreover, these are all free of charge. What is said to offset the copper mines of Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania? Isn't this equal to giving away for nothing?

If he can't take Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania, wouldn't the entire continental European Union suffer!
Would Richelieu, an old fox, do such a thing that only takes advantage of the disadvantages?
impossible!

Wallenstein was stunned for a while, and then asked cautiously: "Are you really getting these muskets, cannons, and war horses for nothing?
You should still have conditions, right? "

Duke Richelieu nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, we have conditions. As long as you agree to our conditions, I will send you these weapons and horses as soon as possible."

Sure enough, there is no such good thing in this world.

This condition is estimated to scare people to death.

After all, it is not that simple to help him win Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania. If the anti-Habsburg alliance takes action, they may have to gather all the horses to win.

Wallenstein frowned and pondered for a while, and then said solemnly: "Tell me about your conditions. If I can't do it, then there's no need to talk about it."

The Duke of Richelieu smiled and said: "Our condition is very simple, you must ensure that after taking Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania, you will continue eastward and attack the western border of the Ming Empire.

How is it, easy? "

This is also called simple?
Didn't you tell me to die!
Wallenstein subconsciously shook his head and said, "No, the Ming Empire is too powerful, and I would be courting death if I rushed there."

Do you think you can refuse?
The Duke of Richelieu immediately tempted: "Don't you want to be a king, don't you want to build a huge empire, don't you want to fight for hegemony?"

Of course I want to!

Question, your condition is to kill me!

Wallenstein said rather helplessly: "So what if I become king, how long can I be king?

You actually let me run to attack the Ming Empire, isn't that a dead end? "

Duke Richelieu continued to seduce: "You have to have confidence in yourself.

Think about it, how many troops can you have after you take Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania?

150 million, 200 million, 250 million!

Isn't that as much as you want?
Besides, we're not leaving you alone.

As long as you lead an army to launch an attack, Tsarist Russia and the Ottoman Empire will definitely send troops to assist, and we will also find a way to get the Persian Empire to take action.

How many troops do you think the Ming Empire can have on the Western Front?

200?
300?
We have already received definite news that the four camps of the Ming Empire in the southeast, northwest and north have a total of only 200 million people.

They are just that the navy is relatively strong, and the army is not good at all.

You really launch an attack on land, what are you afraid of?

Will the Kingdom of Bohemia, Tsarist Russia, the Ottoman Empire, and the Persian Empire fail to defeat those troops on the Western Front?

Even if the Beidaying can support the western front, there are only 100 million people in total. What are you afraid of?
Are you still afraid that the Ming Empire will concentrate all its power on you?

impossible.

You may have seen the world map issued by the Ming Empire. The southern border is tens of thousands of kilometers away, so it is impossible to come to support.

Not to mention the east, if they transfer the troops on the eastern front, we will immediately attack the Americas!
Think about it, do they dare? "

This seems to make sense.

A million troops is indeed nothing to be afraid of.

However, he is not the kind of brainless person.

Richelieu, an old fox, is notorious for cheating people to death.

He is not easily fooled.

Wallenstein frowned and pondered for a while, before suddenly saying: "I believe you know better than me how the Mughal Empire came to an end.

Do you want me to learn from the Mughal Empire and serve as cannon fodder for you? "

Duke Richelieu naturally knew better than anyone how the Mughal Empire fell.

He also knew that if he wanted to fool Wallenstein, he would definitely think of the worst example of being tricked by him.

He had already thought about how to explain this.

He said calmly: "It's not that you don't know how weak the Mughal Empire is. They don't even know how to make guns and cannons, and we only provided them with one or two thousand garbage cannons and [-] guns each time. Here comes the shoddy arquebus.

With their strength, let alone you, even Tsarist Russia or the Ottoman Empire can easily deal with them.

Presumably you also know that the Mughal Empire is the goal of our colonization. Portugal, Britain, including our France have already begun to lay out.

If it weren't for the sudden rise of the Ming Empire, we would all be ready to take action against the Mughal Empire.

How can this undeveloped indigenous force compare with you?

That's right, we did let the Mughal Empire serve as cannon fodder at the beginning, and we had long expected that they would not be able to defeat the Ming Empire.

However, this time is different.

Don't you know your own strength?

Now the entire Continental League belongs to you and is the strongest.

We really want to help you break into the western part of the Ming Empire, so that the Ming Empire will not be able to organize troops to attack Europe.

To be honest, this is the only way we can think of.

Do you think we can give you such a big benefit if we have other ways? "

This is indeed.

The Continental Union is really at the end of its rope now.

If he didn't lead the army to attack the Ming Empire, and when the Ming Empire assembled its forces and led the West African Kingdom to fight, the European Union would not be able to hold it at all.

Wallenstein was already a little moved by such a flattery.

He still has a little confidence in himself. If the Ming Empire really only has one million troops on the western front, he can even fight with others after he has obtained enough weapons and horses.

If Tsarist Russia, the Ottoman Empire and the Persian Empire can really help, it will not be very difficult to break into the western part of the Ming Empire.

Thinking of this, he solemnly asked: "Will Tsarist Russia, the Ottoman Empire and the Persian Empire really join me in fighting?"

Hey, this guy was persuaded.

The Duke of Richelieu hastily added embellishments: "Don't forget, you are the commander-in-chief of the European Union Army, and the armies of Tsarist Russia and the Ottoman Empire were originally under your command.

If you are not at ease, we can convene an alliance meeting, and let Tsarist Russia and the Ottoman Empire each provide 20 horses and hand them over to you for command.

As for the Persian Empire, I'll figure it out.

Anyway, it will take time for you to conquer Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania. By then, the Persian Empire will probably have taken action.

Well, we can agree that if the Persian Empire makes a move, you will make another move.

How about it, are you relieved now? "

real or fake?

If the Persian Empire makes a move, at least it can hold down the 30 million troops of the Ming Empire. No matter how bad the 40 troops of Tsarist Russia and the Ottoman Empire are, they can hold back the 30 million troops of the Ming Empire. At that time, he will only have to face the Ming army of 50 million. up!
It is not a problem for him to expand his army to 200 million after he takes Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania.

Two million against four and a half million, if he can't beat it, he will be a pig!

Of course, this has a premise, the premise is that he can easily win Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania.

Thinking of this, he asked cautiously: "Why do I feel that Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania you mentioned seem to be vulnerable? Even if I can win Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania with my strength, there will be heavy casualties. What else are you going to use to attack the Ming Empire?"

You finally hit the mark.

The Duke of Richelieu did not answer and asked instead: "Are there many people from Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania among the mercenaries you recruited?"

This is indeed true.

Wallenstein nodded slightly and said, "Yes, what's the matter?"

The Duke of Richelieu continued to ask: "Are they all serfs who can't get enough to eat?"

this!

Wallenstein said thoughtfully: "Yes, if they didn't have enough to eat, they wouldn't take the risk of coming to my subordinates as mercenaries."

The Duke of Richelieu went on to ask: "Do they all hate the aristocratic ruling class of Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania?"

This can indeed be used.

Wallenstein suddenly said: "What do you mean, let me use these serfs' hatred for the aristocratic ruling class of the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania to incite more serfs to help me win the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania?"

This guy really thinks he's smart, and it's someone like you who thinks he's smart who cheats!
Duke Richelieu couldn't help feeling proud, but on the surface he pretended to be serious, nodded slowly and said: "Yes, but not entirely.

If you just let your subordinates instigate, it is estimated that it will take at least one or two years to win Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania. "

Wallenstein couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, "Don't you have a better way?"

The Duke of Richelieu asked again: "Why do you think I have to collect [-] horses for you?"

Yes, why is this?

Wallenstein thought for a while, and suddenly said excitedly: "You mean to let me lead an army to raid Warsaw, the capital of the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania!"

You finally figured it out.

The Duke of Richelieu immediately put on a face full of appreciation and praised: "Smart!
As long as you raid and take Warsaw, the capital of the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania, and kill their top brass, you're king.

At that time the territory of Bohemia, Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania will be yours! "

Sure enough, this is the trick.

In fact, Wallenstein is not completely self-righteous, he thinks he is very smart, he does have a few brushes.

Duke Richelieu's reminder, he immediately understood.

At this moment, he didn't know how many tactics passed through his mind, and he couldn't help but want to do it immediately.

If you take advantage of other people's internal contradictions, it is really not difficult to win Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania, because the aristocratic ruling class in Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania is really too much.

In the words of Ming Dynasty, the aristocratic ruling classes of Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania were drunk and dreamed of death every day, while most of the civilians under their hands were serfs who had no clothes and no food to eat.

Although Wallenstein didn't know how to say these bright words, he was very clear that the hearts of the people of Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania were completely lost. He only needed to instigate a stir in advance to cause chaos within the people, and then lead the army to rush forward and punch You can put people down!
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to ask: "When will the weapons and equipment and horses I need be delivered?"

Hehe, I really fell for it.

The Duke of Richelieu immediately said solemnly: "I will try my best to find out for you, and it should take about a month or so.

However, we agreed in advance that after you take Poland and the United Kingdom of Lithuania, you will organize troops to attack the Ming Empire.

Otherwise, not only will we not continue to provide you with weapons, ammunition, money and food, but we will also organize everyone to march eastward to attack you.

Anyway, as long as the Ming Empire organizes a large army to attack, we will not be able to withstand the west, so we can only flee east.

I hope you don't force us to fight you to the death! "

I'm not that stupid.

When I win the western part of the Ming Empire, I will negotiate with the Ming Empire. At that time, I will first unite with the Ming Empire to deal with you, and then deal with the Daming Empire in one fell swoop!
Well, he was being a bit smart for thinking that way.

Not to mention anything else, just talk about the western part of Ming Dynasty, it's no wonder he can take it down.

The Duke of Richelieu tricked him into being cannon fodder, but his cannon fodder is a bit more advanced than that of the Mughal Empire.

As for his ending, the Duke of Richelieu had already thought about it. When he fought against the Ming Empire and was unable to stop, they cut off the supply of weapons, equipment and ammunition, and made him fight against the Ming Empire. Empire clean up!
The Duke of Richelieu is a well-known old fox, can he really benefit Wallen Stander?
This is naturally impossible!
Sometimes, the more people who like to pretend to be smart, the easier it is for others to take advantage of them.

Wallenstein is a typical example. If he didn't think he was smart and fully capable of taking over the western part of the Ming Empire, he wouldn't have fallen for such a trick.
