The candlelight in the palace occasionally made a crackling sound, and the inexplicable direction of the breeze made the candlelight shake a little, reflecting the flickering light in the hall, and the atmosphere looked so weird.

With a hint of gloom on his face that had not yet been completely shed, Muhammad IV pointed to the envelope on the low table in front of him and said, "What do you think? ”

Koplulu, who had already read the letter just now, had an equally gloomy face: "What else can you see? It is impossible for the dog emperor of the Ming Empire to have any good intentions and regulate the war through sports?

Or if we win, the Mughals will honestly cede land to us? Or will we honestly give them another piece of land after we lose?

Could it be that what you can't get on the battlefield can be obtained on the stadium? What did he think war was? And what does he do with us? He's probably playing with us like monkeys? ”

Muhammad IV said with a gloomy face: "Promise them, or refuse?" ”

After a long silence, Koplulu said in a hoarse voice: "Promise them, and we will send someone to the Colosseum early."

If Tsarist Russia and the Mughal Empire, as well as the Holy Roman Empire and the vassal states, do not agree to him, then we will just watch the show.

If they all agreed, then compete with them in a dignified manner, and it is best to win a few games, and then see where his face of the Ming Emperor goes! ”

There was also silence before Muhammad IV spoke: "How is the plan to find the eyes of the Great Ming going?" Are there any new developments? ”

After shaking his head, Koplu said, "I'm sorry, but so far, there has not been even any progress in the plan to find the eyes of the Great Ming.

Those damned Ming people seem to have fallen under some kind of devil's spell, and no matter how much the people we sent tried to try it, they didn't mean to act as our eyes. ”

Seeing that Muhammad IV looked at him in silence, Koplulu explained: "It has nothing to do with silver coins, nothing to do with gold coins, in fact, no matter how many gold and silver coins we send to the people, they are not interested in the slightest.

It seems that the dog emperor of the Ming Empire is like a god in their eyes, and they don't dare to betray that dog emperor at all.

It's not that we haven't thought of threatening them with death, but it's no avail.

In fact, I have sent someone to quietly capture a Ming man, and until he died, this man did not agree to our eye plan. ”

Rubbing his head, Muhammad IV said: "You know, if we can't find the eyes, then we won't be able to get more news from Daming, and we won't be able to fight for more benefits for us."

So, no matter what the cost, find some qualified eyes, even if there are only a few, or even just one. ”

Koplulu said: "I know, I will continue to find a way to continue searching." But I have to remind you that the method of arresting and threatening to execute people can only be used on the Ming people, and there can only be a second time, not a second time.

Otherwise, once the Ming Empire is alerted, we will directly face the wrath of the Ming Empire, in addition to losing the income on the Suez Canal, we will also lose the replenishment of arms.

When the time comes, we'll be at a disadvantage when we face the damned Mughals, instead of bullying them like we do now. ”

Muhammad IV nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know the key to this." If you can't buy them with money, if you can't make them scared with death, then find a way to make friends with them, and find a way to let them tell them what we need. ”

The smile on Koplulu's face was more ugly than crying: "I try my best." ”

The method proposed by Mehmed IV was not untried by Koprülu, but all the attempts were in vain in the end, and it was of no use at all.

Taking money to buy requires constant temptation, and it can't arouse the vigilance of the Ming people, and the death threat is a one-time thing, once it appears for the second time, it is very likely to be found by the Ming Empire.

The last time Xiao Ellis and those two Ming businessmen happened, it taught the whole world a profound lesson: don't provoke the ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty, unless you are psychologically prepared to destroy the country!

After Muhammad IV nodded, Koplulu continued: "I will work the eye plan, and our current focus should be on the Mughal side first, as well as this so-called sports meeting." ”

There were many countries that shared the same idea as Koplulu, and the end result was that almost all of them agreed to the proposal of the Ming Empire.

The theme of the Games was held in the Colosseum of Ancient Rome for world peace, and everyone was allowed to live in peace after putting aside hatred.

It was really peaceful, and for the sake of the Games, the head of the Habsburg dynasty, the current Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand III, gave Cairo, including the entire ancient Roman arena, to Zhu Ciyi, the king of the Jin Kingdom.

For Ferdinand III, his illegitimate daughter is now the Grand Duchess of Bavaria, the concubine of the Jin Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, and the next Holy Roman Emperor, and it is not a big deal to send a Roman city to his son-in-law.

It's not because I'm afraid of the Ming Empire and the dog emperor of the Ming Empire!

And Emperor Chongzhen himself had no interest in the so-called war between Europe and the Mughals, the Holy Roman Empire, and Tsarist Russia.

Mediation?

Of course, there is no problem for Daming to mediate, the problem is that after mediation, they don't fight and don't die, where will Daming go to get laborers? Where to pick up the cheap in Daming? Where does Daming go to sell arms?

To put it bluntly, the Games are just a formality, and the focus is on the negotiations after the Games, including the arms trade negotiations.

As for Emperor Chongzhen taking his wife, son, and daughter out to play together, it was just a passing benefit, and it was impossible for the great Emperor Chongzhen to seek personal interests for himself in such a small matter......

However, after the freshness passed, Emperor Chongzhen planned to pat his ass and leave.

The city of Rome is better, after all, because Emperor Chongzhen is coming, Zhu Ciyi, who knows what kind of environment Emperor Chongzhen and his mother and concubine enjoy in the Ming Empire, has already ordered someone to completely clean up the city of Rome before the start of the games.

In addition, the loess mat is sprinkled with clear water on the streets, and those perfumes that are regarded as the root of life by European noblewomen are sprinkled into the city as if they don't need money, which finally makes the environment of Rome better.

Except for the city of Rome, nothing has changed in the rest of the place, how it stinks or how it stinks.

The last time the Holy Roman Empire carried out a major clean-up operation under the command of Ferdinand III, it was ridiculed by the European barbarians at the beginning, but when it was later seen that the benefits of the Holy Roman Empire's clean-up were too great, the remaining barbarians could not sit still.

Because Ferdinand III did the same, after digging out the Xiangdu buried in the ground, he followed the example of his son-in-law, and pulled those Xiangdu to bury them in the ground as fertilizer, and the grain production increased the next year!

The reaction to the increase in production is also obvious, at least the current black bread can be called real black bread, no longer the black bread that was mixed with sawdust, leaves, and stones, and was hard enough to be used as a weapon to kill people!

It turns out that the European barbarians are not really lazy, nor do they really pay attention to any bullshit human rights, but because they have not seen benefits.

Now that they have seen the benefits of using Xiang as fertilizer, the European barbarians have no one to talk about human rights, and they automatically and consciously began to clean up those Xiang streets, and even fought because of this.

Then, the Netherlands and Spain, which already had an enmity, plus France fought directly at sea because of an island.

The reason is very simple, because human manure can be used as fertilizer to increase the yield of the land, and there is no reason why those island dung and the like can't - so a bird island next to France is targeted by three countries at the same time.

There is only one island with a lot of guano, but there are three countries that look at this island at the same time, so there is nothing to say, just fight a game, whoever wins this bird island will belong to whoever owns the dung on it.

Theoretically speaking, France is the closest to this bird that does not even have a name, and the people also hope that the French government can take the Bird Island in their hands, which belongs to the geographical advantage and people.

However, the French army was really inadequate.

French men who are born ** comic or lazy to the extreme are not keen on this kind of thing, even if they are lined up to surrender, they don't like to fight, unless they are led by a lame person or a woman who does not bathe all year round, otherwise the French army will not be able to win the battle.

Perhaps only in the face of mites can France play soundly and vividly, and there are exchanges......

The Netherlands and Spain are far away from Bird Island, and they do not have an advantage in terms of location, although the people of the two countries also hope to get Bird Island, and let the two countries occupy the people, but these advantages alone can be used by a bird?

What's more, these two families have a grudge themselves, and they have long looked at each other unpleasantly, and they both want to kill each other, so it's good that they have Bird Island alone, so where can they work together to kill France first?

So it really allowed the French army to land on the Bird Island first.

However, Pierre, who holds the title of Governor of Bird Island, is a little panicked.

Much like the Sultan of Ottoman Turkey, who was a young child, the current King of France, Louis X, had just turned nineteen and had not yet taken over power from his mother, Anne of Austria, who was Louis XIII's chief retainer and Cardin's designated successor, Mazarin.

Although he was not yet in power, Louis Dieudonnay Bourbon had clearly begun to get involved in government affairs, especially as Mazarin's health deteriorated day by day, and Louis XIV accelerated the pace of taking over government affairs.

And Anne of Austria was obviously happy to see it, and did not think about continuing to control government affairs at all, but began to give up her rights very happily.

After all, it was rumored that the marriage between Anne and Louis XIII of Austria was a political marriage, and both were unhappy after the marriage, and they began to separate after only five years of marriage.

Due to Anne's Spanish origins and her status as a member of the Habsburg dynasty, Richelieu was always concerned about her betrayal of France, so much so that Richelieu repeatedly accused Anne of orchestrating a rebellion against Louis XIII.

After the death of Louis XIII, Anne took on the difficult task of regent for her young son, Louis XIV, the "Sun King" touted by the barbarians of Europe.

Perhaps Anne avoided suspicion because of her background, or because Mazarin really had a leg, in short, she handed over the power of internal and foreign affairs to Mazarin, Richelieu's designated heir.

If the rumors that Anne had a leg with Mazarin and put a green hat on Louis XIII were true, now that her lover's health is getting worse and worse, it is normal for Anne to be relieved.

Thinking of this, Pierre couldn't help but draw a cross on his chest, after all, thinking in his heart that these messy things were disrespectful to the Queen Mother and the ruling minister, let alone the cultivation that a nobleman should have.

However, I was always a little panicked.

What kind of bird is the French army, Pierre knows very well in his heart, although the equipment is not worse than the two in Spain and the Netherlands, but when it comes to the army itself, that is, the soldiers, the difference is not a little bit worse.

However, no matter how panicked he was, Pierre didn't dare to show it, for fear that his panic would make the troops stationed on Bird Island lose their morale after following the panic.

It wasn't until Dutch and Spanish warships reappeared at sea level that Pierre realized that he was lying to himself by not panicking.

Longuville stood behind Pierre, his eyes unconsciously slid over Pierre's slightly trembling legs, and then he spoke: "Lord Doge, now that the Spanish and Dutch fleets have appeared, who shall we help?" ”

After squinting back at Longueville, Pierre shook his head and said, "We don't help anyone, let them fight, kill one and one less, as long as they don't get close to Bird Island." ”

Longeville's face was a little embarrassed: "After all, Spain ......"

Pierre's face suddenly sank: "Listen, Longeville, this is what the Queen Mother meant, including Prime Minister Mazarin, also has the same opinion, whether it is the Spaniards or the Dutch, as long as they dare to approach Bird Island, we will beat them!"

Now, your main task is to follow me, guard Bird Island, and don't let those damned Spaniards and Dutch come and rob us of guano! Guano belongs to the great France! ”

Longeville suddenly straightened up: "Yes, Lord Governor! Guano belongs to the great France! ”

Pierre nodded in satisfaction and set his sights on the battlefield of the naval battle.

Let's take their time, as long as they don't get close to Bird Island, or if they don't attack Bird Island, they will never attack them.

If they launched an attack on Bird Island,......
