Gulhoff was kicked by Yue Yun and broke his ankle, and then Yue Yun took him out, and soon there was a scream.

"The official family, the French envoy has already cut off his head." Yue Yun came in and said.

Ming Jian said: "Okay, France is rude to the Great Song Dynasty, include it in the country of conquest, and send one of the French envoys back, and the rest as official slaves." ”

"Obey ......" Before Yue Yun finished speaking, Catherine hurriedly said: "Official, these people are all fellow villagers of the concubines, so it is better to assign them to the concubines." ”

Ming Jian groaned slightly, and said: "Since the concubine said it, then all of them will be castrated, and they will serve as the eunuchs of the concubine." ”

Catherine smiled: "The concubine thanks the official family." ”

Those French obviously didn't know their fate, and they were made eunuchs, and now it was a tragedy, and they came from France all the way to be eunuchs for the Song Dynasty.

Two days later, another mission came to Bianjing, the mission of the Kingdom of England.

However, the mission of the Kingdom of England was more polite this time, and sent some British specialties to Ming Jian, such as woolen blankets. At this time, the Kingdom of England was very poor, and the things that were taken out made Ming Jian disdainful.

It's just that seeing that the visitor is a guest, Ming Jian didn't dislike it, and after accepting it, he rewarded the English mission with a batch of tea, silk and porcelain.

The Kingdom of England knew about the Great Song Dynasty, and it was also because of the arrival of the Great Song fleet on the island of Great Britain to do business, and their king Henry I only knew the name of the Great Song, so he sent a delegation to visit the Great Song Dynasty.

This mission floated at sea for three months before arriving in the Great Song Dynasty, which can be described as a hardship.

After several Englishmen saw the prosperity and wealth of the Great Song Dynasty, they did not want to leave, and they sent people back to inform William I, and most of them chose to stay.

This scene was unexpected by Ming Jian, but in order to understand the situation in England, Ming Jian did not drive them away, but gave them Han surnames, and gave them houses and silver taels, and allowed them to live in Bianjing.

After understanding, the current Europe is really very backward, the Holy See controls the situation in Europe, the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of France are the leaders of it, they often use the name of the Holy See to carry out wars and plunder against other regions, the most famous of which is the Crusaders.

The Crusaders also made a crusade and established the Kingdom of Jerusalem in Jerusalem.

However, their army tactics and weapons made the Ming Sword scoff, and the organization and discipline of the crusaders were relatively loose, with heavy cavalry and light cavalry as the mainstay, supplemented by infantry and archers, and the weapons and equipment were still very primitive.

The Ming sword was tried, and the crusader's sword broke with the Great Song Dynasty's Pu knife as soon as it touched, which was not a grade at all. The range of the bow and arrow will not exceed 100 meters, and this strength is completely insufficient for the Song army to crush.

As for the population, the Holy Roman Empire now has about 9 million people, the largest number of European countries, and other countries, some of them are only a few tens of thousands, which is vulnerable.

The Kingdom of England is far from the continent of Europa, and it is a backward country, and the current king was established after the invasion of a duke named William I of the Kingdom of France.

Whether it is comprehensive national strength or military strength, the countries of Europa are not the opponents of the Great Song Dynasty, but the distance is too far, if the Great Song Dynasty sends troops to conquer, there are still many uncertain factors, therefore, Ming Jian still decided to take his time.

First support the Byzantine Empire, and slowly infiltrate the power of the Great Song Dynasty into Europa.

......

In August, a delegation from the Byzantine Empire also arrived in Bianjing, and Uliwei personally led a delegation to visit.

Ming Jian and Uliwei had a cordial conversation, and also learned about the current situation of the Byzantine Empire, after getting the weapons of the Great Song Dynasty and the 100,000 day mercenaries, the Byzantine Empire had stabilized its position and began to launch a fierce attack from the Balkan Peninsula to the Holy Roman Empire.

The mercenaries are very brave in fighting for women and silver, and they are not afraid of death, although when they are single-handed, it is difficult for them to win the soldiers of the crusade, but Xiao Riben is still very team fighting spirit, under the teaching of the Han people, Xiao Riben learned to work together in a group, and also calculated.

However, after a few months of fighting, more than 20,000 of the 100,000 little days died.

This allowed the Holy Roman Empire to be defeated several times, and the Byzantines recaptured their original lands in one fell swoop, ready to invade the Holy Roman Empire at any time.

The goods of the Great Song Dynasty sold very well in Byzantium, which largely led to the development of the Byzantine economy, and now the Byzantine treasury revenue has increased at least threefold.

Byzantine glass products, precious wood, rare and exotic beasts, handicrafts, calligraphy and painting products, and gems are also liked by the Song people, and when they return to China, they will bring them back to sell in the Great Song Dynasty, which makes the Byzantine economy have been greatly developed.

After economic development, the Byzantine people's food problem was well solved, and internal and external troubles were alleviated.

In the end, Ming Jian told Uliwei: "Your Excellency Uliwei, I am very happy to see the development achievements of Byzantium, but now we should vigorously develop the economy, do not blindly expand, after you go back, tell His Majesty John II that you can stabilize your position at the moment, and you are not sure not to start a full-scale war with the Roman Empire." We will march from the Western Regions next year, and when the time comes, after the Seljuk territory is conquered, your original territory will be recovered, and the rest of the territory will be turned into a condominium area, which will be jointly managed by the Great Song Dynasty and Byzantium. In a few years, we will send troops from the sea to help you involve the Germans, and I will let the Kingdom of England send troops to involve the French, and then the time will come to fruition. If His Majesty John II is not willing to listen to this advice from me, you must do your best to advise you, the war will be won or lost, and if you lose, your previous achievements in Byzantium will be in vain, and it will also affect the decision-making of our Great Song Dynasty, do you understand? ”

Uliwei nodded again and again and said: "What Your Majesty said is very reasonable, so let it be that Your Majesty will write a letter, and the foreign minister will bring it back to His Majesty John II, so that he will definitely listen to Your Majesty's opinion." ”

In this regard, Ming Jian had no problem, wrote a 10,000-character book, and handed it to Uliwei to take back.

Uliwei went back this time, took away the original students who were stationed in the Great Song Dynasty, and left 500 students. He was very urgent, and wanted the country to develop as soon as possible more than John II.

The international students who stayed behind were carefully selected talents by Uliwei, as well as some women.

Ulivi was also cunning, and his order to these women was to marry them to the Song and bring them back to Byzantium as much as possible.

In this regard, there is no problem with Ming Jian, there are so many talents in the Great Song Dynasty, let the Byzantine women be addicted.

However, he still ordered Jinyiwei to monitor with all his might, and if there was any behavior that endangered the Great Song Dynasty, it would be unforgivable.

......

In September, the Jin people also sent a mission.

The mission was led by Jin Wushu, after this guy went back, he changed a lot, saw the Ming Sword, and saluted calmly, without a little arrogant taste.

Jin Guo and the Great Song Dynasty are now at peace, but according to Jinyiwei's secret agents and Wan Yanchang's secret report, Jin Guo is now making every effort to develop its economy and military, especially in the study of artillery.
