"Great Majesty, why don't you ask for help from the Ming in the far east?" After thinking about it, an Ottoman minister said: "Your Majesty should know that my Ottoman ancestors were from the steppe in the far east, and were defeated by the Tang Empire in the Central Plains nearly a thousand years ago, and had to move westward here, our ancestors have always had a wish, that is, to re-kill the east, recapture the grassland that originally belonged to us, the Manchurians are also from the east of that grassland, 25 years ago was defeated by the Ming Dynasty, driven here, originally our two races are also considered to be in sympathy, but we don't want the Manchurians to become our Ottoman nightmare!" ”

The old Ottoman minister said this, gritting his teeth a little.

The Ottoman Empire was originally so powerful, defeating Persia in the east and suppressing European countries in the west, and it was the most powerful hegemon in this area, because of the Manchurians, the empire's national strength was exhausted, and the sun fell.

"The Manchus were also the enemies of the Ming Dynasty, and I believe that the Manchus must have the same desire as our ancestors, to fight back to the East, defeat the Eastern Central Plains Empire, and recapture that grassland! The Ming must not want to see the Manchus too powerful, so if we send a messenger for help, the Ming should be able to help us. After the old minister finished speaking, he looked at the Ottoman Emperor.

The Ottoman Emperor and the other Ottoman ministers were shocked, they didn't expect this old minister to think of the Ming Dynasty in the far east!

To say that the ancestors of the Ottomans did always have such a wish, even now the Ottomans have always remembered this wish. Of course, it is just to remember that it is impossible to really ask them to go back to live in that place.

After the destruction of the Byzantine Empire, becoming a new empire, and ruling Asia Minor, Greece, Constantinople and other prosperous and wealthy places, the Ottomans even remembered the wish of their ancestors, but the desire to return to the East was almost gone, even when the Ottoman Empire was at its strongest, they did not really think of giving up the splendid prosperity of Constantinople and returning to the Oriental steppe.

And even if they don't have the intention of returning to the Eastern Grassland, the Eastern Central Plains Empire has always been a potential 'enemy' of their Ottomans, and now they are asked to turn to the Ming Dynasty in the Eastern Central Plains, and the feeling in their hearts is indescribable.

Although they didn't feel very good in their hearts, they had no choice for the survival of the Ottoman Empire.

About June of the thirtieth year of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming expeditionary fleet was still fighting in France, and the Ottoman emperor sent a fleet of envoys composed of more than a dozen ships to the Ming Dynasty.

At most, the Ottoman Empire's maritime power was active in the Mediterranean Sea and the Caspian Sea, and although they also had a navigation chart to the Ming Dynasty, no one had ever sailed around for eight months, and finally they came to the Strait of Malacca and came into contact with the Ming Dynasty.

However, the people of the Ottoman Empire did not know that the two sides of Malacca were already the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and they also wanted to sail directly to the area of the Yangtze River estuary of the Ming Dynasty according to the navigation chart before boarding the 6 Ming Dynasty, but fortunately, because the supplies on their ships were about to run out, they had to stop in the Kuala Lumpur area to buy supplies, and then they accidentally learned that they had come to the Ming Dynasty.

The Ottoman envoys were very excited, a full eight months of sailing, they even thought that they would not be able to come to the Ming Dynasty, and now they have arrived in the Ming Dynasty unconsciously, of course they are excited. Only then did the Ottoman envoy find the Ming government's official residence in Kuala Lumpur and submit the Ottoman Empire's credentials to the Ming Dynasty, requesting to meet the Ming Emperor.

The radio soon spread the news of the arrival of the Ottoman envoy to the city of Nanjing.

"An emissary of the Ottoman Empire?" Zhu Ci frowned, and after only a moment of silence, he guessed what the general purpose of the Ottoman envoy was.

Over the years, the Manchu Qing and the Ottoman Empire have been at war for many years, forcing the Ottoman Empire to exhaust its national strength, and continue to be defeated, and a large amount of territory has been lost.

Thinking of this, a strange cold glint flashed in Zhu Ci's eyes.

Zhu Ciji immediately issued an order to accept the letter of state from the Ottoman Empire and summon the Ottoman envoy.

After receiving the order, the Ottoman envoys boarded the train at the Kuala Lumpur railway station and finally arrived in the city of Nanjing after a three-day and three-night drive.

There is no doubt that the prosperity and advancement of the Ming Dynasty also shocked the Ottoman envoys, and he never thought that the Ming Dynasty in the East would be so prosperous, like a dreamlike empire, no wonder it could force the fierce Manchus to move west, but it brought them a nightmare for the Ottoman Empire.

After only one night's rest, the next morning, the Ottoman envoy saw Zhu Cijiao.

Walking into the Jinluan Palace, the Ottoman envoy first asked a few entourages to carry in two large boxes, and after opening them, they were all some treasures collected by the Ottoman royal family and some gold, silver and jewelry, etc., worth about tens of millions of silver dollars.

Zhu Ci only glanced at it, and then stopped paying attention, this value was not in his eyes.

The Ottoman envoy put his right hand on his chest, and after symbolically saluting Zhu Ci, he said directly: "Your Majesty the Ming Emperor, I am from the Ottoman Empire ----------."

First, it introduced the origin of the Ottoman Empire, including the defeat of the Tang Dynasty nearly a thousand years ago and moved westward, and then explained that the Ottoman Empire and the Ming Dynasty were related. Then he explained that the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which had been driven to the Middle East by the Ming Dynasty only twenty-five years earlier. With a look of resentment, he rebuked the murderous nature of the Manchus, brought great disasters to the Ottoman Empire, and so on.

To a certain extent, it touted the strength of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, what has more than a million heroes, and so on.

Although he didn't want to boast about the strength of the Manchus and raise the ambition of the Manchus and destroy the prestige of their Ottoman Empire, he had to endure in order to persuade the Ming to send troops to help the Ottoman Empire defeat the Manchus.

In the end, the Ottoman envoy thought about the Ming Dynasty and asked the Ming to send troops to attack the Manchus, and the Ottoman Empire would help the Ming defeat the Manchus.

When the Ottoman envoy finished speaking, Zhu Ci couldn't help but smile, and his smile was a little cold.

To say that this Ottoman envoy did come to the Ming Dynasty for help, but in the end, it turned out to be a request for the Ming Dynasty to send troops to curb the continued growth of the Manchu Qing, and it also became that the Ottoman Empire would help the Ming Dynasty to defeat the Manchus.

Does the strength of the Ming Dynasty need the help of the Ottoman Empire, which is almost extinct? What a joke! Zhu Ci couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Zhu Ci was disdainful in his heart, and most of the Manchu civil and military forces present also frowned, and some ministers directly discussed below that the Ottoman Empire barbarians were indeed barbarians, and the small countries were all forced to destroy the country by the Manchus, and they still dared to call it an 'empire'?
