"It's too late to retreat. Kneel down and greet Master Wang."

Duke Philip looked at the Ming cavalry regiment that had already moved south of Paris, and thought that Prussia's 100,000 troops had not returned in time. Naturally, he had no time to take care of the newspapers and ordinary merchants in the city who had turned against him. Even he He himself had no choice but to propose direct surrender to the European nobles still remaining in Paris.

Louis XV had no choice but to nod and said: "Now it seems that this is the only way."

"I didn't expect that the Ming army would be so quick. Our 50,000 Grand Alliance troops still in Paris would surrender without resistance?"

Count Raymaner from the Principality of Venice asked reluctantly.

"Yes, if I had known this, I would not have defended Paris. Now the nearly 300,000 troops on the Ardennes defense line cannot evacuate in time, and they will all be left here by the Ming army! But these are the things that our entire European alliance can draw The last troops sent! Many of them are boys of fourteen or fifteen years old. If all of them are to be annihilated by the Ming army, what will the Holy See and other countries in southern Europe have to do to resist the Ming army?!"

Archbishop Massod, the representative of the Principality of Savoy, also said with concern.

Therefore, Kahn, the representative sent by the Holy See, also asked: "By the way, where are the other 100,000 troops led by your general Prussia? Didn't they go to the north? Come back quickly, and maybe they can block the Ming Dynasty together. The army will stand up and let us evacuate in time."

"They have not come back, and we don't know where they are now, but what is certain is that we have no other choice now! Before the Ming army completely surrounds the city of Paris, we still have the merit of surrendering! Do you understand?! "

Phillip asked loudly as he spoke.

Now he regrets even more the decision to let his brother fall into the water.

"Okay! Then let's go kneel down outside the city to greet him. It seems that we will have to take a shower in the future."

Leman said helplessly.

"Why!"

Massoud also sighed: "The freedom of not taking a shower is gone."

Kahn said: "In fact, there is nothing wrong with taking a bath. Maybe God sent Easterners to rule us just to correct our incorrect understanding of the world."

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

When the Ming army's chariots and tanks began to appear in dense numbers outside Paris, many Parisian citizens began to gather outside the city and started shouting slogans.

It’s just that their Chinese proficiency is limited, so they can only shout two words: Long Live.

At the same time, the citizens of Paris also began to place incense tables in front of their doors, enshrining Zhu Youxiao's shrine, expressing their sincere allegiance, and asking the Ming army not to plunder them.

Philip and Louis XV happened to see this scene when they came out to kneel to greet them. They did not expect that the people's hearts would succumb to the Ming army so quickly.

Faster than them all.

Next, European nobles such as Philippe and Louis XV also knelt outside Paris.

A white flag was also hoisted on the castle.

In addition, the tens of thousands of troops still in Paris also raised their hands and knelt on the ground to express surrender.

Only the nearly 300,000 European Grand Allied troops still gathered along the Ardennes Line did not know that the nobles and citizens of Paris had surrendered. They were still immersed in the joy of having just regained their positions.

The nearly 300,000 European Grand Alliance troops in this area were just puzzled that the next Ming army did not launch a new offensive. Even if they took the initiative to attack, the Ming army only retreated.

Some middle- and high-level generals became suspicious and took the initiative to send people to Paris to inquire.

Soon, the people sent by these mid-level and high-level generals to Paris met the people who came out of Paris to represent the Grand Alliance Committee and ordered them to surrender on the spot to the Ming army opposite.

Therefore, soon the nearly 300,000 European Grand Alliance troops had to wave the white flag to the Ming army on the opposite side.



"Except for the two hundred thousand French troops who withdrew to England regardless of the danger to their king and capital, almost all the main forces of the entire European Grand Alliance were left in Paris and surrendered without a fight. Our combat goal was achieved."

Liu Zhaoji reported the final results to Zhu Cizhuo, who had just arrived in Paris.

Zhu Cizhuo pinched his nose and said: "Very good! Send an order to all the captured Xiyi nobles and Xiyi officers and soldiers to take a bath. Damn it, it really stinks, they all smell so bad!"

"Yes! What if they say no?"

"Either take a bath or behead!"

Zhu Cizhuo said coldly.

"yes!"

Therefore, next, except for a few people who really wanted to defend their Western culture and customs to the death and were beheaded because they refused to take a bath, most of them chose to obey the order to take a bath.

But for this reason, within a month after the Ming army captured Paris, the water of the Seine River was not red, but black.

In addition, Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Ming Dynasty issued an edict requiring the Western Expeditionary Army of the Ming Dynasty to burn down the Palace of Versailles in France after occupying Paris, just like the Navy burned down the Palace of Westminster during its second expedition to England.

Therefore, after the Ming army entered Versailles and confiscated all the treasures in the Palace of Versailles, they followed the same pattern and burned the French Royal Palace.

"This is the shame of my France!"

Philip, who was temporarily detained in the city of Versailles, said this depressedly after learning about the Palace of Versailles, and cried: "Brother King! Philip is sorry for you!"



"The Palace of Versailles was burned down, and the king and many nobles became prisoners. I, Prussia, am sorry for them! I will always remember that the Ming Dynasty brought me the greatest shame in the history of France!"

Prussia and his 200,000 French troops had gradually evacuated back to England, and after learning about the corresponding situation after the city of Paris was captured by the Ming army, they angrily delivered their own speech in the English Parliament.

"General, you have not sorry for them. Your decision is wise. The French people will praise your timely evacuation because you have preserved the hope of France's restoration!"

Queen Mary II, like Monmouth, highly praised Pruss's behavior at this time.

Other British and foreign nobles also expressed their opinions in this way, praising Pruss for withdrawing his 200,000 troops back to England, and they wanted to praise Pruss as a great hero.

After all, the British nobles really needed more power to fight against the Ming army on their behalf.

Therefore, Monmouth also specifically advocated: "We, Britain and France, need to unite closely to fight against this yellow peril from the east!"

"That's right! We should retreat to America in a planned way. The vast land there is more conducive to our fight against the Ming army!"

English Cavendish made a suggestion at this time.

As a result, almost all MPs agreed.

For the entire British ruling class, they now have to admit that the small island of Great Britain alone cannot fight against the Ming army. Therefore, they all agree to go to America.

Next, the whole of England, mainly England, began to move to America in a planned way.
