Emperor Chongzhen finally insisted on the original solution and no longer felt soft-hearted. If he felt soft-hearted this time, it can be foreseeable that the Ming army would eventually go to a path that would be too big to lose.

The vassal states of the Tang Dynasty, the Huai Army of Miqing, the Beiyang Army of Principal Jiang's warlords were basically typical representatives of the fact that they could not lose their tails.

Just like a person has a sore, should he choose to cut his flesh or wait for the sore to expand and then die? Now even if he can't bear it, no matter how much he feels sad, he has to bear the pain at this moment.

After dealing with the matter of the Southern Imperial Guard, there were actually not many things left. It was nothing more than continuing to lead troops north and then killing Cromwell and Charles I, who should have been sent to the guillotine by Cromwell.

Then, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly found that he had the potential to become a villain demon king? He seemed to be always trying to start a war? He sold arms and longevity cream, and seemed to have done anything immoral?

After reflecting for three seconds, Emperor Chongzhen no longer paid attention to the question of whether he was a villain.

Where did the silver in the Ming Dynasty come from? Where did the silver in his own treasury come from?

There is no doubt that it is all the hard-earned money of the people of the Ming Dynasty. The protection fee they paid is of no connection with these barbarians. At least the barbarians did not pay the protection fee, and they had no responsibility or obligation to ensure their safety.

As the Ming army advanced northward step by step, Cromwell finally chose to join forces with Charles I.

Charles I never expected that Ming Dynasty would be so unreasonable.

The matter was caused by Cromwell. The person was detained by Cromwell's men. Even if the port in the area he controlled was shelled, wouldn't he hold back with his nose?

Not only did I endure it, I also negotiated a series of cooperation with the marquis of the Ming Dynasty, including the trade of Fushou Paste and arms. From this perspective, I am already generous enough, right?

However, the reward was that after receiving the silver coins, the Ming Dynasty once again began shelling the port, and even the army began to land and fight!

It's just too much to deceive others!

The clay man is still three-pointed to be instinctive, not to mention that Charles I, who is still very capable, could not swallow this breath no matter what.

However, if you can't swallow it, there is no use for birds. Not to mention that you have three parts of fire. Even if you have very fire, you will still be a clay man?

Charles I also knew that his strength was not enough to fight against the Ming Dynasty, and Charles I also had a deep understanding of the strength of his old opponent Cromwell.

In general, neither of the two companies has the strength to fight head-on with the Ming Dynasty. Even if they join forces, it is only barely enough. The greater possibility is that they will still be hit.

However, in Charles I's opinion, even if he is pressed and beaten, it is still much better than the current situation. At least after the two families join forces, there is still room for maneuver, right?

For Charles I and Cromwell, with the annihilation of the English Longbowmen and the Heavy Knights, the two were almost forced into desperate situations, which also means that the entire England has been forced into desperate situations.

After a while of silence, Charles I spoke: "Didn't you contact France before? What are the responses there?"

Cromwell shook his head and said with a gloomy face: "It's impossible. France is still in chaos now, lacking the leadership of women, and they don't have the courage to do the right thing with the Ming Empire."

After licking his lips, Cromwell's tone was filled with disbelief: "Those incompetent and cowardly French men, do they actually welcome the emperor of the Ming Empire to visit France in the newspaper? Are they not afraid that the emperor of the Ming Kingdom will not leave after he arrives in France?"

Charles I said: "Whether the Emperor of Ming Dynasty would go to France and whether he would leave France has nothing to do with us.

Now our enemies are not only the damn Ming Empire Emperor and his army, but also the civilians of our own country since the damn "The Story of Gangsters by the Swamp" began to spread, how many civilians have chosen to follow suit!"

Cromwell is also very troubled.

No one expected that the book "The Story of the Gangster by the Swamp" would cause such great trouble to the whole of Europe, and that some people in almost all countries were following.

And what is even more troublesome is that most of those who follow the example have gotten better and have no money to live in business!

The consequence of this is that more civilians who cannot survive and cannot eat will follow the trend.

It would be fine if we followed suit at other times. Cromwell even believed that if England was the same as those in France now, it would be no big deal for someone to follow suit.

But when the Ming Empire invaded England, the number of people who imitated those gangs reached its peak, which made England, which was already chaotic enough, even more chaotic.

These damn guys, are they all pretending to be feces in their minds? If it weren't for the invasion of the Ming Empire, would they not be able to survive?

Now they don’t get along with the Ming Empire, but instead make trouble on the territory of England, which is all damn!

When Cromwell spoke again, his slightly hoarse voice even Cromwell himself was startled: "Dear Your Majesty the King, those who imitate "The Story of the Gangster on the Swamp" are no longer worthy of calling them English citizens, they are sinners of England!

My personal opinion is that if we cannot eliminate these sinners, they will cause us more trouble in the future, which is equivalent to indirectly helping the Ming Empire invade us!

Just like the batch of supplies we shipped to the front line a few days ago was stolen by a group of gang members.

They would not use those supplies to deal with the Ming Empire, but instead use the arms that originally belonged to us to deal with us.

So, I suggest that now we should immediately clear out all the surrounding gangs and then work hard to deal with the attack of the Ming Empire.

When necessary, we can even give up some territory to the Ming Empire."

Charles I squinted his eyes, took a deep breath of his pipe, and then said, "You don't know what it means to give up your country, right?"

Cromwell gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I know that this means that our bad image among the people will be even worse.

But what will happen if we do not give up our territory and choose to fight head-on with the Ming Empire?"

After saying that, Cromwell did not wait for Charles I to answer and then explained: "Don't give up the country means we need to recruit a large number of soldiers to the front line to fight against the Ming Empire.

This means that we need to transport a large amount of supplies to the front line, and we also need to recruit more civilians to transport supplies.

What's even more terrifying is that in the territory we control, there are a large number of gangsters, these bastards who have no country in their eyes. They don't care what will happen to England at all, and they care more about how many things and benefits they can grab from us.

This means that we need to go to war on both sides, both against the Ming Empire and against our English civilians. This is definitely not a good idea.

On the contrary, as long as we free up our hands and completely deal with these gangsters, we will no longer have to worry about gangsters rushing out to make trouble in the future, which means we can have more materials and soldiers to use on the front line."

Charles I suddenly felt a little discouraged. Anyway, there were no outsiders on the side, and they were all confidants of himself and Cromwell. Charles I simply spoke, "And what? Actually, you and I understand in our hearts that no matter what, it is just a delay of more time. Can we still defeat the Ming Empire?"

After nodding seriously, Cromwell said: "In fact, it is not impossible.

I have carefully analyzed that all the arms and materials of the Ming Empire need to be transported from the Ming Empire from thousands of miles away. The longer they dragged, the more materials they consumed.

A country's ability to withstand limited capacity and they may not be able to withstand such consumption. If they can withstand a month's consumption of materials and ammunition, then what can we delay the time until one year?

Even, I plan to let the army give up its current frontal combat mode and change it to scattered combat, and even lurk behind their frontline to attack them.

In this way, both the front line and time will be extended infinitely. Even if the Ming Empire has money in the treasury, it may not be able to support it, right?"

Charles I said with some ease: "Then do it according to your ideas. I can't compare to you in wars, and I know it in my heart.

If it weren't for the invasion of the Ming Empire, or the secret incitement before the Ming Empire, I'm afraid you have won the victory of the war between us, and I may have been sent to the guillotine by you."

After shaking his head, Cromwell denied Charles I's view: "Sorry, Your Majesty the King, our dispute is our own business, it is an internal matter of England and has nothing to do with the Ming Empire.

Now they are invaders, their war horses have set foot on our territory, and we must unite to fight against them.

The dispute between us can be resolved through the parliament and the House of Assembly after the Ming Empire withdrew its troops."

Charles I nodded and said, "Go and follow your own ideas."

After Cromwell and Cromwell's confidants left, Charles I said, "How is Charles Little in France now?"

Marin Bulvo, the chief guard who was most trusted by Charles I, was also the one who arranged for Charles Little to go to France. After hearing Charles I's question, he bowed and said, "Dear King, the prince has arrived safely in Paris in France.

No one knows him in Paris, and after a while, someone will arrange for him to be transferred to the territory of the Holy Roman Empire and obtain the status of a citizen of the Holy Roman Empire.

I can assure you that even if England is finally defeated, he can survive in France and wait for one day to restore England."

Charles I nodded, but said no more.

Is it really safe?

Perhaps it is safe from the moment, because the Ming Dynasty's eyes have not turned to France. Even if the Ming Empire turned its sight to France, it is estimated that Charlie, a young man, had obtained citizenship of the Holy Roman Empire at that time.

The Ming Empire is allies with the Holy Roman Empire and the Holy Roman Empire. The civilians under the Holy Roman Empire and the Holy Roman Empire will not be captured by the Ming Empire and become slaves, right?

As for the comforting words of restoration of England, just listen to them. If it is true, why are all the nobles sending their families to France and then detouring the Holy Roman Empire?

The momentum in front of him was actually very obvious. Almost everyone was desperate. Even Cromwell, who had just acted like a bloody battle with the Ming army, had confidence in his heart? His son and daughter were sent to France early!

Cromwell, who had left Charles I, had just returned to his office, immediately summoned a large number of confidants: "I think everyone's reserve plan should be completed, right?

Now, what I want to discuss with you is whether we can mobilize our English civilians to cause some trouble to them in the rear of the Ming Empire's army, or let the civilians cover our army and lurk behind the Ming Empire's army?"

Eddie Carlton shook his head and said, "Sorry, Your Excellency. We have no way of knowing what the rear of the Ming Empire army is like now. They seem to have special abilities in blocking the news. The people we sent out have not received any corresponding rewards until now."

Cromwell was shocked, but there was no sign of any appearance: "Did they arrest all the civilians in England? I can't think of any other possibility besides this possibility."

Carlton naturally knew what Cromwell meant.

Unless the Ming Empire captured all the Englishmen and became slaves, the native Englishmen would dress up as civilians and lurked in places where English civilians lived. The possibility of being discovered by the Ming Empire was too low.

Only after the Ming Empire captured all the English people or killed them all, would the English people who suddenly appeared there appear particularly abrupt and easy to be discovered.

After nodding in confusion, Carlton spoke: "Sorry, you, I think this possibility does not exist. If it exists, the combat plan you mentioned just now will become difficult to implement."

Cromwell took a sip of his pipe and then said, "It's difficult, and it must be implemented. Let the soldiers hide in the mountains and hide in everything they can. When the Ming Empire's army relaxes its vigilance, then suddenly attack them!

Tell the soldiers below that all the benefits they can get from the Ming Empire are their own, and His Majesty the King and I will guarantee their property and power!"
