The weather in August is hot, and the hearts of the people of Daming are also hot, and the "Beijing News" has reported a lot of stories to let them know that Daming has made a lot of impressive achievements this year.

This year, the Ming Dynasty defeated the Mughal Empire and occupied the entire territory of the Mughal Empire, what a huge empire it was, according to the description of the "Beijing News", after the occupation of the Mughal Empire, the newly formed fifteen provinces, each of which was not smaller than the original two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty, that is to say, the territory of the Ming Dynasty was almost doubled!

This year, the Ming Dynasty also defeated the combined fleet of the European continental powers and took Batavia, the European continental powers, from the reports a few years ago, we can know that they were no less powerful than the Ming Dynasty, and now, they can't beat the Ming Dynasty together, how terrifying the strength of the Ming is!

This year, Daming will also expand the capital, you must know that the capital of Daming has long been the largest male city in the world, it is said that the population has been no less than three million, and it will be expanded, what a huge city it will be!

The expansion of the capital not only makes the people of Daming more proud, but also makes the people of Daming full of expectations.

Because, the newly built Nancheng District will be a huge commercial area, a new area as big as the old capital, how many merchants can be accommodated, and how many opportunities to make a fortune will be created!

In addition, the newly built Beicheng District will increase the enrollment scale of Guozijian and Daming Institute of Technology by five times!

Whether it is a student who wants to enter the official career through the imperial examination, or an ordinary person who wants to send his child to learn a skill to support his family, he is full of expectations for the newly built school.

Also, Beicheng District will also build a new exotic garden, which is another gospel for ordinary people who have no money to go out to see the world.

Of course, this year, the achievements of the Ming Dynasty will be far more than these, no, Sun Chengzong has just left the capital with great ambitions, ready to recover the huge territory of northern Xinjiang, Xiao Jiucheng came to the capital with the good news that Zhu Cijiong had been waiting for a long time, and he came with the envoys of the Ottoman Empire.

What's going on here? Just buy a piece of land, you don't need to send such a grand envoy group!

In fact, the Ottoman envoys did not come to negotiate the sale of land, but the sale of a piece of land, for Ibrahim I's cronies, it was a very simple matter, as long as you paid for it, they could even sell a small country to you!

This statement is not an exaggeration at all, these corrupt officials are very terrifying, because it only took them a few years to completely mess up the once-prosperous Ottoman Empire, so that a super empire across Europe, Asia and Africa went into decline, and finally perished without relieving it.

Leading the envoy to the Ming Empire was Suiman Pasha, who was one of Ibrahim I's cronies, and Xiao Jiucheng pulled his line to successfully buy the land of the Eurasian Canal.

This Pasha is a title for high-ranking officials of the Ottoman Empire, probably equivalent to the general or governor of the Ming Empire, of course, this Suiman Pasha is not a real general, nor is he a governor, he is just a favorite of His Majesty the Ottoman Emperor, and it doesn't matter if he comes to the Ming Dynasty, just because he made too much money this time, he wants to come to the Ming Empire to be corrupt.

To say that this Suiman Pasha is really greedy enough, nominally Daming only spent one million taels to buy the land in the Eurasian Canal, but he alone accepted a bribe of more than two million taels from Xiao Jiucheng, and another more than three million taels were also given to other cronies through his hands, that is to say, the nominal value of this land is only one million taels, but the gift was nearly six million taels.

Of course, Zhu Cijiong didn't care about this money, a few million taels was nothing to him, and if he really sent troops to fight for that land with the Ottoman Empire, it would not be a matter of a few million taels.

In general, it was the Ming Empire that made it, so he was quite enthusiastic about this Suiman Pasha, not only arranged the best accommodation for him in the state guesthouse, but also put on the most grand scene in the Imperial Palace to welcome his arrival in person.

However, this Pasha seemed to be a little scared and stupid, as soon as he entered the Imperial Palace, he lay on the ground and gave Zhu Cijiong a big salute, and then, he was even more well-behaved, Zhu Cijiong asked whatever he asked, he would answer, looking like a good baby! What's going on here?

Along the way, this Suiman Pasha is indeed scared silly.

When he first boarded the ship in the Persian Gulf, he didn't feel anything, because Xiao Jiucheng's car was just a camouflaged Fuchuan battleship, which the Ottoman Empire had, and he was just surprised by the speed of the Fuchuan battleship, and he was very interested in the wheel behind it.

When he arrived in Goa, he was shocked, which was also because Xiao Jiucheng didn't know that Zhu Cijiong had returned to China, so he brought him directly to Goa.

However, although Zhu Cijiong was not there, Qin Gongming stayed in Goa with the Dingliao army, to be honest, there is nothing to scary about the 100,000 army, the Ottoman Empire can organize an army of 200,000 or 300,000 casually, the problem is that Qin Gongming is leading the Dingliao army to guard nearly 500,000 prisoners!

These 500,000 captives are naturally all the remaining armies of the Mughal Empire, and the reason why Zhu Cijiong gathered them in Goa was to prepare them to dig the Eurasian Grand Canal.

When Zhu Cijiong was about to lead the army to leave, he also frightened Kong Dede, 500,000 prisoners, let him lead more than 10,000 people to watch, doesn't this kill him!

In the end, Zhu Cijiong had no choice but to leave the Dingliao army behind, this is 500,000 prisoners, the Ottoman Empire has never gathered so many troops at most, the Ming Empire has captured so many people in one go, how can Su Yiman not be frightened.

Then, when he arrived at Xingcheng Port, he was taken aback again, the dense artillery, the huge Nanyang Naval Division and the South China Sea Fleet were enough to prove that the navy of the Ming Empire had the strength to crush the Ottoman Empire's navy!

Xiao Jiucheng deliberately stopped at Xingcheng Harbor, because he wanted to borrow a ship from His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, after all, this Fu ship warship is not safe in the ocean voyage, in case he accidentally capsized the ship, it would be a trivial matter for him to die, if Suiman Pasha and the envoys of the Ottoman Empire were all drowned, it would be a big trouble.

When Zheng Zhilong heard that this was a close confidant of His Majesty the Ottoman Emperor, he was naturally extremely polite to him, not only entertained him at the Governor's Palace, but also lent his treasure ships and warships to Xiao Jiucheng.

Su Yiman was already scared silly when he saw the Nanyang Governor's Palace, Nima, is this just the Governor's Palace? How can it be more magnanimous than the royal palace of the Ottoman Empire!

When he saw the treasure ship battleship, he was directly dumbfounded, is this still a ship? The whole thing is a sea palace!
