Chapter 129: Taking over Cairo's defense Painful thunderous means

The next day, according to the plan, the Yaogang army entered the city to take over the defense of Cairo. However, according to Sun Chuanting's request, the Ottoman Empire did not completely withdraw from the defense, but stood guard with the Yaogang army to guard Cairo. The officials of the kiln gang also handed over the work of the officials of the Egyptian province one by one.

Today, there are also some ** and lords of Mamluk Province who are tentatively entering Cairo. The Ottoman Pasha arranged for them to live and introduced them to Sun Chuanting and the Ottoman envoys. Although Sun Chuanting didn't understand the language, he also smiled and nodded with them.

The envoy also said something, you have done a lot of work for the Ottoman Empire, thank you for your kind words, the atmosphere is still very peaceful. This way until the evening, most of the ** and lords arrived.

Pasha said to the envoy and Sun Chuanting: "Your Excellency, Lord Sun, most of the ** people of Mamluk Province and the lords of Mamluk have arrived, and the rest are farther away. I guess I'll be there tomorrow morning! ”

"Good! Then according to the plan, we will announce to them His Majesty's order tomorrow afternoon in your Pasha Mansion. At the same time, we signed a contract with them to continue to hold the administrative power of **, and the lords continued to lease the land of the place. Sun Chuanting said with a pleasant face.

The envoy also said: "It seems that the affairs of Egypt are not as complicated as originally thought!" After saying that, he said to the Pasha, "Didn't you understand which lord led the army to attack Lord Sun and them?" ”

"Yes, yes!" Pasha said, "What I have sent to understand is that a total of two lords led people together to attack the vanguard of Lord Sun. I haven't found evidence yet, though! ”

"Okay! Just say the two lords! Sun Chuanting said.

"It is said that the two Mamluk lords of Zimino and Ramses on the east bank of the Nile joined forces. It is said that they lost more than three thousand elite Mamluk cavalry. Pasha flattered, "Neither of them has arrived today, though." I guess I'm scared of you! ”

"Huh! It doesn't matter if they come or not, as long as it doesn't interfere with our work. After a pause, Sun Chuanting said, "Actually, as for the people who attacked us, we also know that these two people brought people to do it. ”

The envoy and Pasha were shocked when they heard Sun Chuanting's words, and Sun Chuanting saw their expressions and smiled, "Hehe! Envoy, remember how many seriously wounded Mamluk cavalrymen we caught? ”

"I saw that such a serious wound could not survive at all, and the lightly injured Mamluk cavalry committed suicide when they saw that they could not escape." The Special Envoy was well aware of the attack.

"We have used the best penicillin medicine on the seriously wounded Mamluk cavalry, and we have already rescued a dozen people. A few of them came back to life and had already told who had attacked us with them! Sun Chuanting said calmly.

"Oops! Master Sun, you can really do it, don't tell me about such a big thing! I also forced the Pasha to find out who attacked us? The envoy shook his head and asked, "Is your medicine really that good?" I saw that with such a serious injury, the wounded soldier would not have survived at all. In the past, on the battlefield, such wounded soldiers, we all helped them make up for their sins! ”

"Our sulfonamides and penicillin are the best medicines. These drugs have already saved so many lives! Sun Chuanting said.

Pasha asked in disbelief: "I have seen the kind of sulfonamide pills that merchants brought back from the Ming Dynasty. In Cairo, this pill was exchanged for gold, and you actually gave it to those Mamluk cavalrymen? ”

"Yes! When a few of the Mamluk cavalry heard that we had saved them with the best medicine, they were immediately so moved that we said whatever we asked! Sun Chuanting said affirmatively, "Actually, in order to take care of the people, the price of these drugs was not very high when we left the factory, and the prices were all speculated by businessmen." ”

"That's not right! Our merchants who came back from the Ming Dynasty said that this medicine was not very easy to buy in the kilns of the Ming Dynasty. Some of them hire locals to pretend to be sick in your hospital to get a little bit of it! "Pasha knows the situation over there very well.

"Huh! I've heard about that, too! Sun Chuanting said with a smile, "The number of drugs we put on the market is not enough for businessmen to buy." We also know that a small amount of medicine is very valuable, easy to carry, and very profitable to take home. Therefore, all the merchants who went to the kiln had to try their best to buy some medicines. As a result, in order to ensure that the local people in Yaogang use medicine, we had to restrict the prescription of drugs to patients in the hospital. Even so, there are locals who use this as a way to make a living! ”

Pasha glanced at the envoy and asked cautiously, "Lord Sun, for the sake of our cooperation, can you sell me some medicine." I have a daughter in my family who always has a cough and I heard that this medicine can cure her. Don't hide it from Master Sun, I used to exchange some gold for this medicine, and it really worked. But then I gritted my teeth and changed some medicine, but it didn't work. It is likely that those black-hearted businessmen deceived me with fake medicines! ”

"Oops! We're good friends now, so don't be so polite! Sun Chuanting said, "I will immediately send a military doctor to your residence to treat Miss Gui." See what drug works better with it! ”

"Thank you, Lord Sun! In this way, I don't dare to work with the military doctor, so I asked my family to send my daughter over and ask the military doctor to take a look! Pasha said excitedly.

"You're welcome Pasha! Patients, don't toss. I've heard that people who rarely use our drugs have a very significant effect when they use them. After saying that, he turned to the staff officer and said, "Let our best doctor go and treat the young lady and use the best medicine." Cure Miss's illness at any cost! ”

"Yes!" The staff officer agreed to the arrangement!

Pasha was very excited and said, "Oops! Thank you, Mr. Sun! ”

Sun Chuanting could see that Pasha was both excited and a little uneasy, and understood his concerns, "Pasha don't worry, we are good friends now, and your daughter is like my daughter." You don't have to worry about all the medication costs! ”

"Oops! How good is that? Of course Pasha was happy when he heard this, he was a little nervous, he really didn't know how much gold was used to cure this disease, and when he heard Sun Chuanting say that he didn't need to spend gold, of course his heart relaxed. But I feel very embarrassed.

The envoy, who had not spoken, said, "Alright! Since Master Sun said so, you're welcome! Just bother with what we're going to do later! "The envoy understood Sun Chuanting's intentions very well.

"Good! By all means! Pasha nodded his head like a chicken.

"It seems that I have to ask my family to build a hospital in Cairo. To provide people here with affordable treatment services and medicines! Sun Chuanting said.

"Oops! If you can build a hospital like this here, the people of Cairo and all of Egypt will support you! Pasha said excitedly.

The envoy looked at Sun Chuanting and asked, "Lord Sun, you have built shops, telegraph and telephone offices, passenger stations, and ticket numbers in Istanbul, and are now building a hotel, why don't you build a hospital?" ”

"Huh! The hospital we built was basically not for the purpose of making money, but mainly for the local people. Now that we have a shortage of doctors, we can only meet the needs of some of the people to a limited extent, and there is still a lot of way to fully meet the needs of our own people, so how can we go out and build hospitals in your country? Sun Chuanting smiled and returned.

"Alas! Master Sun, I have followed you all the way, and the words that often appear from your mouth are the people, and the first thing you think about is the people, which has never been done by any country official. This touched me a lot. When I return to Istanbul, I will also report this to His Majesty the Sultan. We've been exploring why you've become so powerful so quickly, and maybe that's part of the answer! ”

The special envoy was still very keen, and Sun Chuanting had to raise his eyes and look at him carefully, "Your Excellency, you can be regarded as seeing the difference between us and other state officials. This point has been like this since Mr. Zhang of our kiln gang. We must proceed from the fundamental interests of the people in everything we study, and the people will work together with us wholeheartedly. In this way, our country is getting better and better, and the life of the people is getting better and better! ”

"Alas!" Listening to Sun Chuanting's words, Pasha sighed.

The Special Envoy also bowed his head.

Everything is silent, they all know what the Ottoman officials are thinking and doing!

On the morning of the third day of Sun Chuanting's entry into Cairo, most of the **, the great lords, and the great monks arrived. It was the two lords who led people to attack Sun Chuanting and them, thinking that their affairs had not been exposed, so they sent someone to investigate, and felt that there was no problem, and they also came to Cairo.

All of a sudden, Cairo was lively. Because the lords and lords came in the thousands, and the great monks also had nearly a hundred, plus the retinue they brought, all the inns in Cairo were almost full at once.

Sun Chuanting and Li Kui decided to meet these people in batches.

After discussing with the Ottoman envoy and the Pasha, it was decided to ask Mamluk** to enter the hall of the Pasha Mansion first.

Just as the Pasha's men went to invite the **, Li Kui's guards came in and drove out all the original Pasha's guards and attendants. The Ottoman envoys, the Pasha, and some Egyptian officials were a little displeased, but they couldn't do anything about it.

Twenty-two ** came in twenty-one, and the other was really sick and couldn't send his own son.

These **men, who have Mamluk cavalry in their hands and control large areas of land, are very crazy, and today they are here to let the new master re-canonize them. They didn't worry at all that the new masters wouldn't canonize them, because they had heavy troops in their hands, and the Ottoman Empire was so powerful that they had to give them some face. Egypt is ostensibly a province of the Ottoman Empire, but in fact, there are still these ** cuts in the place. It's just that they want to contribute taxes to the Pasha in order to be safe.

When these ** came to the hall of Pasha Mansion, they felt that something was wrong, because there were soldiers of the Ming Dynasty army standing around. But they didn't pay much attention to it, and waited for them to sit down one by one. The heavy door of the hall of the Pasha Mansion was squeaked and slammed shut.

All the Mamluk** people also looked back at the gate, and then they saw that the powerful ** people in Egypt were here, how bold the people were talking about, they pouted one by one, tilted their heads, and looked at the Ottoman envoys, Pasha, Sun Chuanting, and Li Kui sitting in front of them.

Everyone sat down, and Pasha got up and said, "Ladies and gentlemen of Egypt, sitting in front of you is the envoy of His Majesty the Sultan of our honorable Ottoman Empire, please stand and salute!" ”

At least the etiquette ** still understands, and they all get up and salute!

After saluting, Pasha said, "Please read the order of His Majesty the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, our honorable envoy!" ”

The envoy coughed lightly and said, "On behalf of His Majesty the Sultan, I declare that after consultation between our Ottoman Empire and the Ming Dynasty, we have sold the province of Egypt to the Ming Dynasty. The Egyptian military and civilians, when they received this order, must completely obey the management of the Ming Dynasty officials. Violators, the Ming Dynasty has the right to severely punish according to its own laws!

This order, Ottoman Sultan! ”

The following provinces** have known this result for a long time, and they have calmed down after discussing it, and they are waiting for the following results.

After reading out His Majesty's order, the envoy stood up and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, from now on, we are no longer your commanders. Thank you for your support during my reign and for your loyalty and hard work to the Ottoman Empire! From now on, this Lord Sun Chuanting Sun next to me will be your chief. He is the highest administrative official sent by the Ming Dynasty! We welcome Mr. Sun to speak! ”

There was a little infiltration below, and Lord Sun swept around the ** who were staring at him, and said, "Everyone, from the time we signed the agreement with the Ottoman Empire, everything here has been the Ming Dynasty!" Today's ritual is to formally inform you. In other words, the ** position you originally appointed by the Ottoman Empire has been nullified! The new ** must be reappointed by our Ming Dynasty to be valid! ”

After translating Sun Chuanting's words, there was a discussion below.

Sun Chuanting waited for them to finish their discussion and said: "But we need several conditions to be the leader of the Ming Dynasty, one is to swear allegiance to the Ming Dynasty, and the other is to resolutely implement the laws and administrative orders formulated by our Ming Dynasty." ”

After a round of discussions, Sun Chuanting said: "Let me first introduce the policy we want to implement, if you have no objections, you can take the oath and sign an agreement with us later, and we will give you a letter of appointment." ”

Glancing at the somewhat impatient ** below, Sun Chuanting said: "I announce the first decree, from now on, all Egyptian land, except for the land owned by the common people themselves, will be nationalized, and no one will be allowed to lease it." Rather, it was to be divided equally among the common people for farming, and the common people paid rent directly to the state. Second, the hierarchy was abolished and the use of slaves was no longer allowed. Give all slaves the same pauper status as ordinary people. Article 3 prohibits all private armed forces. ”

The translator has finished translating these articles, and the following is like boiling a pot. Someone immediately stood up, but they realized that they might not be able to walk now!

Even the Ottoman envoys and Pasha were shocked when they heard Sun Chuanting's words. The envoy hurriedly looked at Sun Chuanting with his eyes, trying to persuade him not to make it so intense now. He was a little puzzled, how could Sun Chuanting, who had always been shrewd, see the situation so clearly and make things out of control.

"If you can accept these requests and want to be a **, please raise your right hand. Then the agreement can be signed under oath, and we will issue a power of attorney at the same time! In this way, you are the ** of the Ming Dynasty! "Sun Chuanting's appointment of this position that has never been seen in the Ming Dynasty is somewhat new.

The translator said it twice, but there was still a lot of bang below, and no one raised their hands. Both the Ottoman envoys and the Pasha were worried that Sun Chuanting would not be able to take the show. But this is what Sun Chuanting expected.

Sun Chuanting smiled and said: "Since you don't want to be this **, we will recruit people who are willing to be ** tomorrow." From now on, you will no longer be a **! ”

The angry ** below stood up to leave, and said: "We shouldn't be **, let's see who dares to come?" ”

“”

But the soldiers of the kiln gang around them pointed their guns at them and commanded loudly: "Sit down!" ”

There are hot-tempered ** who don't believe in evil, they think that here the soldiers don't dare to do anything to them, and they just want to leave. But the soldier picked up the ** and smashed them back.

Sun Chuanting continued: "It's okay if you don't do it, but you must swear to abide by the laws of our Ming Dynasty and not do anything that affects the exercise of power by others." And you swear by the Koran! ”

The following ** is even more gone! There was a lot of commotion.

Sun Chuanting said loudly: "If you want to go home after swearing, come forward!" ”

After the translation was turned over on both sides, there was still no one coming down, but they were making a noise and rushed outside!

Li Kui, who couldn't hold back for a long time, yelled, "Fuck! Shame on the face! Destroy them! ”

The soldiers of the kiln guards standing guard around were also impatient for a long time! Put the automatic rifle on your body, take it out from behind you**** to these two dozen ** "Puff puff!" "A rush of shots!

These arrogant and boundless princes never dreamed that someone would unceremoniously punch countless holes in their bodies. These ** stared at a hundred unwilling eyes one by one and fell in a pool of blood.

The Ottoman envoy Pasha never dreamed that Sun Chuanting would be so vicious. I shuddered with shock.

While the soldiers of the Yaogang Guard were cleaning up the corpses, the Ottoman envoy's voice trembled and asked Sun Chuanting: "Sun, is it necessary for Lord Sun to do this?" ”

"If we don't destroy them, will we be able to take Egypt?" Sun Chuanting asked lightly, it didn't seem like he was talking about murder at all.

"Yes, these guys, but ......"

"Don't be! Our Mr. Zhang said that we must have both a bodhisattva heart and a thunder method! If these evil forces are not eliminated, the consequences will be endless! Sun Chuanting said.

Pasha wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Master Sun, maybe you did the right thing, otherwise you really can't control them." I'm an official here, and they also give me a little face on the surface, but in fact, we can't control the following things at all! Only in Cairo we have 5,000 Janissaries, and they don't dare to be presumptuous, and everywhere else they cut it! ”

The Ottoman envoy glared at Pasha.

Sun Chuanting didn't care about this, and said to Pasha, "My lord, let's invite those monks in!" ”
