boom!

The shells exploded the moment they hit the ground, because Havana is a seaside city, and the ground is mostly soft sea sand. After the shells exploded on it, the effect dropped sharply, but the lethality was equally huge. When the shell hit the ground, dozens of Eastern Roman soldiers were killed before they even had time to react.

People in the Eastern Roman Empire knew that Ming Dynasty had a very strange and extremely powerful firearm, but among the Eastern Roman soldiers recruited this time, ninety-nine out of ten had never seen the attacking power of firearms.

Therefore, only in the first round of artillery bombardment, these soldiers of the Eastern Roman Empire were already stunned. The power displayed by these firearms was obviously beyond their cognitive range, and even more than [-]% People think that this is a god descending from the earth, and these enlightened people are simply invincible.

In this way, the soldiers of Eastern Rome had not even come close to the walls of Havana, and in this round of anti-aircraft artillery attacks, thousands of men had been lost.

When the soldiers of Eastern Rome braved the artillery fire and rushed to the city wall, the nightmare appeared again. This time it was no longer anti-aircraft shells, but some oval grenades with strange grid patterns on the outside.

These guys rushed quite densely, and countless grenades fell from the top of their heads. These Eastern Roman soldiers didn't even have a chance to escape. They fell down one after another like cutting wheat.

The gleaming swords, spears, and thick armor on his body had no effect at all under the attack of these round grenades.

Therefore, the 16 troops who came to attack had already lost more than half of them without even breaking through the city gate. If the remaining people hadn't run fast, they might have died.

Chapter 582 Destruction of Holy Rome

The great army came to conquer, but they had lost half of them without even seeing their faces clearly, and even the remaining Eastern Roman soldiers had completely collapsed.

Regardless of whether it was the leading generals or the soldiers of Eastern Rome, they all had no time to continue attacking. They either fled like rabbits, or stood still, and fell into a state of stupidity.

For these guys, Zhu Song didn't even have the slightest sympathy at first, and directly asked his soldiers to turn on the mountain cannon again, and the artillery fire roared, and began to kill.

This time he fought in Europe, he didn't need prisoners, nor did he need these people who had completely lost their fighting spirit to act as pawns for him, killing, only ruthless killing!

Because he still has to go to America, Zhu Song has no time to waste in Europe. What he has to do now is to use this coastline as a landing place, and advance from here to the entire territory of Eastern Rome. As long as Eastern Rome is destroyed, the remaining Those small countries in China are trivial.

As for whether to continue to march into Africa after conquering Europe, this matter is not within his consideration. At that time, Zhu Di will have a headache. Anyway, there are at least 50 idle troops in the territory of Ming Dynasty right now, so send them out directly. Europe and Africa, that is.

Boom boom boom!

The mountain cannons were roaring crazily. Facing such a terrifying attack, these Eastern Roman soldiers went completely crazy and ran away in all directions in a panic, trying to escape the attack of the Ming Dynasty's anti-aircraft mountain cannons.

It's a pity, how can these two legs be as fast as an anti-aircraft mountain cannon?No matter how fast these Eastern Roman soldiers walked with their short legs, they would eventually become the souls of Ming's bombardment.

When the remaining Eastern Roman soldiers were also killed and injured, the gates of Havana City were opened wide, and groups of Ming elite soldiers and generals in camouflage rushed out with submachine guns. Just a burst of shooting.

Daming stopped shelling, but the long massacre began.

More than two hours later, Ming's soldiers swept up the army station in Eastern Rome, and all living people had been killed. Just like Zhu Song's previous mission, no prisoners of war were needed.

Afterwards, according to Da Ming's statistics, the casualties on Da Ming's side were almost negligible. On the other hand, on the Eastern Roman side, tens of thousands of people were killed and starved in the battle on the coast. Zhu Song was very satisfied that it did not affect the situation of the battle.

??The first battle against Eastern Rome ended with the victory of Ming Dynasty. At the same time, Ming Dynasty also showed Europe its unrivaled combat power and the blood that penetrated to the marrow.

After this battle, it not only caused panic in Eastern Rome, but also made the big and small countries on the two continents of Europe and Africa full of fear towards Ming Dynasty.

Those relatively small countries were almost scared to pee when they heard that the Ming army appeared in the border city of Eastern Rome and slaughtered more than a dozen conscripting troops in Eastern Rome.

They hurriedly started to prepare the generous gifts, and at the same time, they also drew up the letter of credence for Jiangming, and arranged for their trusted officials to go to Daming with the generous gift and the letter of begging for surrender, hoping to beg the emperor to accept them.

As for those countries whose strength is only a few percent smaller than Eastern Rome, they are waiting and watching, and they are also hesitating. Although they know that Ming Dynasty is powerful, they still have certain illusions.

It's a pity that they really underestimated Zhu Di's appetite. When they saw Daming's ambition, it was already a month later, and Zhu Song led the army to leave East Rome.

……

??On the 27th of the first month of the seventh year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, the capital of Eastern Rome, Constantinople.

Mikas, Minister of War of Eastern Rome, personally ordered the soldiers to guard the gate of Constantinople, and asked Wenzel I to go to rest in the underground palace built against the anti-aircraft guns of the Ming Dynasty.

There is no way, but in just one month, the originally huge Holy Roman Empire has been captured nine out of ten. Because of the extermination policy implemented by the Ming army, the soldiers of Eastern Rome were terrified, or they deserted directly. Either relying on the relationship, they came to Constantinople and acted as the last line of defense.

This also led to a total of more than 20 Eastern Roman soldiers in Constantinople.

Wenzel I entered the underground palace with an expression of anger and distress on his face, and he looked very depressed. All the ministers and generals under his command were also dejected.

I don't know how long it took, and suddenly a soldier came to report that the army had already attacked Constantinople.

Wenzel I was shaken violently, his whole body trembling like chaff, and he almost fainted.

Although the number of soldiers in his Constantinople is several times that of the Ming Dynasty, but relying on quantity alone, it is impossible to defeat the more than 4 soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

Because the weapons of Ming Dynasty were much more powerful than the firearms of Yuan Dynasty, often twenty or thirty people would be killed with one shell, and the number of such weapons seemed to be endless.

How can they really resist and fight?

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you, Your Majesty? Are you alright?" Just as he was asking about Zell I, the burly and handsome middle-aged Roman in soft armor asked with concern.

"Huh!" Wenzel I turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged man, exhaled a foul breath, and said, "Mikas, I'm fine! I'm just a little tired, I'm fine, I'm fine."

This Mikas is the Minister of War of Eastern Rome. He took over as Minister of War just a week ago. He did not disappoint Wenzel I. After he took over the Ministry of War, although he could not change the status quo, at least he kept many soldiers in Eastern Rome. .

"Your Majesty, I have made new arrangements for the defense of the entire Constantinople. The Ming army will not be able to attack." Michaels comforted Wenzel I, and then began to assign tasks to prepare them for use. Take all precautionary measures and be prepared to defend the city to the death.

After Mikas issued the order, Wenzel I was suddenly determined, and a grateful look appeared on his face.Said: "Michas, right now my heart is in chaos, among the ministers in the court, the only minister I can use is you."

Michaels looked solemn after hearing the words, and said: "Since the Holy Roman Empire, the defense of Havana has been defeated, the Ming army has invaded the entire territory of our Holy Roman Underground Palace with the help of weapons!"

Speaking of this, Mikas's face suddenly became gloomy, and he continued: "Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid Constantinople will not last long. Your Majesty, you have to make plans early."

Wenzel I let out a long sigh: "This Ming Dynasty...I still don't understand why the Ming Dynasty invaded our Holy Roman Empire! I sent a special envoy to the Ming Dynasty with a lot of gifts, but I never even saw the Emperor Ming's face..."

When he said this, Wenzel I shook his head, "I see this time, Daming is determined to destroy my Holy Roman Empire!"

Michaels continued: "Your Majesty, there is a saying in Ming Dynasty that if you keep green hills, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood! As long as Your Majesty is still there, there is still hope for my Holy Roman Empire, and there will be a time for a revival in the future!"

"You mean, escape?" Wenzel I smiled wryly and shook his head, "The entire Holy Roman Empire has been captured by Ming, and the entire continent will be lost by then. Where can we escape?"

"Your Majesty, have you heard that there was a period in the Ming Dynasty called Qin?" Michaels touched his chin and said, "Qin Emperor Qin Shihuang, in order to be able to rule permanently, he ordered his clerk Xu Fu to bring five hundred Boys and girls, go out to sea by boat, look for Penglai Xiandao, and ask for elixir for them, hoping to live forever..."

"Michas, what time is this? What's the use of saying this?" Another middle-aged man with a big belly in aristocratic clothes interrupted Michaels.

"Shunet, shut up!" As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, Wenzel I scolded him.

Michaels glanced at Hunate indifferently, and continued: "Xu Fu wandered on the sea with five hundred boys and girls for a long time, but never arrived in Penglai. Finally, on an island with a beautiful environment, Xu Fu stationed After coming down, he did not plan to return to the Qin Dynasty. Qin Shihuang finally died of illness, and since then, Xu Fu and five hundred boys and girls have not been heard from. After 200 years, an overseas island country called Wa Kingdom was born!"

Wenzel I raised his head, looked at Michaels and said, "Could it be..."

"That's right!" Before Wenzel I finished speaking, Michaels replied, "This Wa country is the country established by Xu Fu and the [-] virgins he took away! Even a mere alchemist can build a country. The country, not to mention you, Your Majesty, who is so talented and strategic?"

Wenzel I didn't know the origin of the Japanese slaves, but after listening to Michaels' words, he gradually regained his confidence and fighting spirit!

Wenzel I, who thought more and more freely in his heart, stood up, saluted Michaels sincerely, and said:

"Michas, it is my honor to have your help in this life. As long as I can get rid of this misfortune, I will definitely regroup and swear to drive Ming people out of my Holy Roman Empire!"
