Since the second level was more difficult than the first level, only 1,125 deserters were able to pass the level, accounting for less than 24% of the total.
This means that more than 70% of the deserters have been eliminated in the first two levels.
"Elimination" means death, which is the most horrific form of punishment. Is it all over? exactly the opposite!
A certain emperor wanted these deserters and the audience to always remember the consequences of escaping from battle! The third level is
"Water Coffin"! As the name suggests, the coffin is filled with water, the top of the coffin is covered with an iron mesh, and the iron mesh is locked, allowing deserters to unlock the coffin and escape.
Don’t they all like to run away? Then a certain emperor will test everyone's running skills! It is perfectly possible to breathe in the coffin while lying down, but because the water level is very high, one can easily choke if not careful.
If your mental quality is relatively poor, you are likely to choke on water one after another until you choke to death.
The officers adhered to the rules of the previous two levels and shot all deserters who were unwilling to enter the water coffin on the spot.
But there is one advantage for players who pass the second level first, that is, this time the order is reversed. The last person to pass the previous level enters the water coffin first, and so on.
The deserter who picked mountain goods was ranked last. This was a great benefit, because he could see with his own eyes the game conditions of the players in front.
This level is actually not very difficult, it mainly tests the psychological quality of the deserters. Once your hands shake and the key falls into the coffin, it must be retrieved again.
If they cannot touch or open the lock, the deserters will have to be kept in the water coffin... Zhu Cixiang believes that he has greatly reduced the difficulty of the game, otherwise he will directly put these deserters into the coffin and bury them alive.
If they were asked to escape from the coffin, it would be extremely difficult. It is estimated that not many people would be able to successfully pass the level in the end.
There is no time limit for this level. Players can stay in it as long as they have the ability and like this kind of entertainment.
Of the first hundred deserters who entered the water coffin, only twenty-seven survived due to fear and helplessness.
Among these deserters, only one could not swim, and the rest managed to get out by relying on their good water skills and not panicking in the water coffin.
By the time all players completed the level, only 405 were alive, with a success rate of 36%.
This is mainly due to the fact that everyone behind has seen the previous situation and accumulated a lot of coping experience, otherwise it would not be higher than 20%.
The fourth level is a pit with a bunch of venomous snakes at the bottom. If you want to survive, you have to climb up using steel knives as stairs.
Once he makes a mistake, he will be in trouble... Che Zaizhen must have realized that few of the deserters in front of him will survive in the end.
But then I thought about it, who can I blame? Who told them to run away from the battlefield? Now they are solely to blame!
In the end, only 162 people passed the test, accounting for less than 3.4% of the total! In other words, only one in thirty people can pass the four levels!
What a terrifying elimination rate! Is it over? certainly! If the game continues, these less than 200 deserters will all be played to death by a certain emperor!
Does Zhu Cixi feel guilty about this? Not even a tiny bit! To escape from the battlefield is to be cruel to the friendly troops, let alone the friendly troops of the Ming Dynasty.
Did the Ming Dynasty King deserve to be betrayed by pickle deserters? Since it's not, there's no need to think about it.
This is the age of natural selection and survival of the fittest! You can survive only by your own ability and luck.
If you want to live a peaceful life, you don't have to join the army. I want to eat and drink for free, but I don’t want to take responsibility. Do you have the connections and connections?
After dealing with the deserter matter, Leopold and his son and Alexander had new ideas. That is, they are all unwilling to go to East Africa for fear of being killed by the Ottomans in the north and the Zheng family in the south.
The new destination is the mainland of Ming Dynasty, but his attitude is still very humble, as long as he is given a piece of land.
very good! Regardless of the loser or the winner, they will all go to the mainland of Ming Dynasty. Now how to divide the territory has become a big problem!
Everyone in the coastal areas wants it because overseas trade is quite profitable when it comes to shipyards and ports.
But Zhu Cixiang had already spoken to William III in advance. If the two sides exchanged land, the Netherlands would definitely get Fujian and Guangdong.
Fujian has the leading shipbuilding industry in the south, followed by Southern Zhili. These two big pieces of meat must be given to the two allies, William III and Frederick the Younger.
William III has stated on behalf of the Parliament that the Netherlands would rather not have the inland provinces, but also want to obtain the four places of Guangdong, Fujian, Dongfan, and Qiongzhou, plus Guangxi.
This meant that half of the southeastern coastal area was lost, and the remaining Zhejiang and Southern Zhili had to be given to Frederick the Younger.
The largest military port in Zhejiang is in Dinghai, while Nandu has the second largest shipbuilding base in the entire south. The tea in Zhejiang and the silk and textile industries in South Zhili were very important to Frederick the Younger.
Then there are Ma'anshan's steel and Huainan coal mines. These three are indispensable. As an ally who has never betrayed him since the two parties formed an alliance, Zhu Cixiang is naturally willing to give the other party better land.
Louis XIV really couldn't stand the strong stimulation above his head. After obtaining the opinions of his close ministers, he agreed to exchange land between the two parties.
Based on this situation, many parties finally reached the "1736 Land Exchange Agreement"! Since the land in the east and west was involved, Munich or other places were not named as the treaty.
The agreement stipulated that the northeastern region, northwest region, Shanxi, North Zhili, and Shandong of the Ming Empire were owned by France.
Mainland France, including France, the Iberian Peninsula, the Southeast Region, the Netherlands, the Kingdom of Naples, and the surrounding islands, were all owned by the Ming Empire, excluding French West Africa and French India.
The Netherlands exchanged its British Isles and Dutch East Africa for the Ming Empire's Guangdong, Fujian, Guangxi, Dongfan, Qiongzhou, Yunnan, and Guizhou, excluding Dutch South America and Dutch India.
Prussia exchanged its territory for Zhejiang, southern Zhili, and the central and eastern parts of Huguang. Leopold and his son and their entourage were resettled in Henan.
Duke Braunschweig-Lunenberg of the Duchy of Hanover and Duke Friedrich Wilhelm of the Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and his uncle Duke Adolf Friedrich II.
The three heads of state of the two countries were all assigned to Jiangxi, central and western Huguang, and eastern Sichuan, but they all also received an outlet to the sea in southern Zhejiang.
Alexander obtained most of Sichuan. It turned out that the Principality of Württemberg was located inland, and whether it had an outlet to the sea was not that important to him, and it was assisted by Yangtze River shipping.
What made Louis XIV sick to his stomach was that he saw Leopold and his son again, and after moving to the Eastern World, they still had to be neighbors with each other!
Zhu Cixi also made compensation for him, assigning Zhangde Mansion and Weihui Mansion in northern Henan and deep into Beizhili to Louis XIV, and Runing Mansion and Guide Mansion in eastern Henan to Frederick the Younger.
It was enough for Leopold and his son to keep four prefectures and one state, namely Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan Prefecture, Nanyang Prefecture, Huaiqing Prefecture, and Ruzhou, but they had to restrict these two important captives.
After dividing the territory in this way, all parties were relatively satisfied. The only worry was that the car was shaking.
"Your Majesty! If the Ming Dynasty moves to the west, it will be difficult for this country to protect itself on its own!" Che Zaizhen did not dare to let the Ming Emperor take back the agreements he had signed with other heads of state, so he could only find ways to pray.
"Don't worry, my dear, the king's fleet has a naval base in Dongcheng and a naval base on Jeju Island. The fleet will also visit your country frequently and will conduct regular exercises with your army. If anything happens, it can support your army at any time and help my dear. Stabilize the situation. As Aiqing thinks, I have already made arrangements. Even if the territory of the Ming Empire changes, Ming Dynasty and your country will still maintain the previous strategic cooperative relationship. I can guarantee that nothing else will change. "Since Daming and Kimchi are very close, Master Wang can send troops to intervene at any time as long as the other party has trouble.
As the largest non-native naval base in Northeast Asia, Jeju Island's role is to monitor the movements of Kimchi and Japan.
The island was not included in the land exchange agreement, which was the intention of a certain emperor. Even if Louis XIV gets it, the Ming Navy fleet can be stationed on the small islands around the peninsula for a long time.
Cha Zaizhen also invited the Ming Dynasty navy to station in Incheon and Busan. The former can support Seoul at any time, and the latter can play a role in blocking Japan's westward penetration.
Zhu Cixiang did not agree easily. This was not to protect Kimchi, but to send money to the other party, unless the other party was willing to bear all the expenses of the garrison.
However, there is a compromise plan, that is, the Ming Navy will conduct joint exercises with the Kimchi Navy all year round. Taking this opportunity, the warships can be docked in Incheon and Busan for a long time, and the batches will be rotated frequently.
Zhu Cixiang cannot yet guess whether Louis XIV will annex Kimchi in the future, but Kimchi will undoubtedly become a buffer zone between the Ming Dynasty and France.
The northern capital, the possible new Paris in the future, is less than 500 kilometers away from the border between Ming and France, and there are hidden dangers strategically.
The northeastern region was surrounded on three sides, the situation in the west was not much better, and Leopold and his son were in the south. Zhu Cihong did not think that Louis XIV had a better place to move.
Perhaps more than half of the French armored forces will be deployed to the Gyeonggi region to protect the European Emperor's new Paris.
Louis XIV had no intention of retreating on his own so soon.
The title of "European Emperor" was replaced by
The words "Emperor of Asia" sound somewhat awkward.
"Yahuang"! Ya means second, which is what Wannian Lao Er means. On the contrary, this is how Zhu Cixi understood it.
If Louis XIV could really be the second eldest son of a thousand years, he would surely be happy. After all, France has been overtaken by the Inca Empire and the Ottoman Empire in many aspects.
Now the Ming Empire's comprehensive national strength is far ahead, and the Ottomans, Incas, and France all want to be second.
Who is second depends on the support of Emperor Haojing and their respective efforts. Someone can succeed casually, but this rule basically does not apply at the national level.
Basically, the difference in national power is one level. It is very difficult to catch up. To overtake them is to try to reach the sky.
Population, technology, military, finance, land, natural resources, all aspects, only if all conditions are met can you have the opportunity to qualify for the challenge.
A country like the Netherlands with obvious shortcomings in population, no matter how hard it tries, can only become a third-rate country in the end and will never reach the level of France.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to exchange land, William III wanted to eat and occupy more. However, his family's situation was there, and he simply couldn't eat such a big fat.
Being able to switch to the southeastern coastal area and retain Indian territories is a result that satisfies the Congress.
After this arrangement, the shipbuilding capabilities of France, the Netherlands, and Prussia will all be greatly improved.
After the family change is completed, the arms race in East Asia will surely become more exciting... The original Ming Dynasty, Japan, and Kimchi, plus the later France, the Netherlands, Prussia, Hanover, and Mecklenburg, these eight families came together. This will make the arms race lively.
The fish in the coastal waters of the Ming Dynasty had been caught in large quantities. A certain emperor thought it was time to find a better place for the fishermen. The Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea were the best places to stay.
Except for Sweden, Switzerland, Rome, Hesse and other countries, most of Europe will fall into Zhu Cihong's hands.
"One thing needs to be explained in advance. Perhaps Zimin of the Kingdom of Naples is not willing to go to the East with me!" Louis XIV felt that it would be better to tell this matter now. Now that the agreement has been signed, he must be a little more responsible, otherwise he will Embarrass an old friend.
"Thank you for your kind reminder. It's okay if you don't want to leave. Ju Min in this place can still continue to enjoy the previous treatment, as long as he can accept my management. Those who are neither willing to leave nor want to leave, I will send them to He went to see God. As for whether to forgive them, that is God's business!" Regardless of whether Louis XIV would convey this sentence, Zhu Cihong would say this, and he would do it.
If they don't listen to me and want to occupy my land, that will be shameless! It is very necessary to intimidate in advance, especially if the other party is a group of local snakes.
Communicate with scoundrels in a language they understand. Elegance has nothing to do with them.
"...I will try my best to take them away!" Louis XIV believed that this old friend would definitely do what he said, but the lazy Neapolitans did give him a headache.
"That's the best!" In short, Zhu Cixiang did not intend to give up any land transferred to the Ming Dynasty in the former France easily.
The central and southern regions of the Apennine Peninsula are not India. There are no sacred cows, three brothers, or Ganges water. Whoever dares to resist the Ming Dynasty's management will not mind turning the place into a scorched earth.
The specific method is also very simple,
The "Imperial War" is finally over. Aren't the bomber units of the Air Force idle? Using live people as targets for bomb-dropping training is a good way to maintain the combat effectiveness of your troops!
After the hugely expensive imperial war ended, a certain emperor believed that there was nothing wrong with conducting actual combat-level training in local areas.
The world needs peace, but the army needs exactly the opposite... If you like The Black Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty, please collect it: () The Black Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty has the fastest update speed on the Internet.
