One of the "leaders" thought that the Zhelan was preparing to court on his turf, and he couldn't help but be angry and quickly approached, and when he got closer, he saw that the horns on his head were much bigger than himself, and he was even more angry, so he lowered his head, held his horns, and clattered and wrestled with Zhelan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After a few rounds of pushing each other, the deer realized that he had been fooled - a silk net with a small bell hung from the top of Zhelan's head and between the branches, and the moment it went to fight for horns, it was entangled in this net and could not get out.

The bell rang, and Gawain immediately clapped his palms and drank to the point of "Go up, go up, kill this lured deer!" ”

Wen Ruomina, the sleeping officer, also circled her lips with one hand, "Your Highness, go up!" ”

While Khlistopher was still hesitating, Caleadios rushed out from behind the stone, raised his sharp dagger, and plunged it directly into the neck of the deceived deer, and the stag was full of convulsions and died by the wire mesh, and his eyes were wide with tears of remorse.

And the Zhelan was also frightened, and ran in circles restlessly, but the iron ingots attached to his feet made it impossible to get away.

"This kid is as decisive as I am." Gawain paced and patted Caleadius on the shoulder.

Then he looked at Hrlistopher, who was still carrying a bloodless dagger, and the other party looked at his father timidly, and pointed over there without forgetting to explain, "I'm afraid, there are still a lot of deer over there." ”

Gawain looked at it in a blink of an eye, and there were indeed three or four stag there, with sharp horns, but when they saw Gawain coming, they were so frightened that they retreated, if it were just these two children, they would definitely launch a fierce revenge attack.

Gawain touched Hristopher's head and said in a deep voice, "Well, you have to understand two things. One is that traps can be set up to hunt animals, and the other is that it is always right to observe the surrounding or subsequent situation before you start. ”

At this time, Muzafiadin and several female officers came up, bowed and saluted Gawain, and said, "Immediately the fleet of Magnupine and Portland will dock in the port of New Paul. ”

"Is the information reliable?" Gawain raised his hand, washed it in the basin sent by the sleeping officer, and asked.

"The information sent by the Seleucian military port overnight should be correct. It was all ships provided by Venetians and Sicilians, and there were nearly 10,000 soldiers under their command. ”

"Alright, I'll leave it to you." Gao Wen shook off the water droplets, instructed the fat eunuch, and then walked in the direction of the palace accompanied by the sleeping officer and the military servants, "No matter what, they are all companions of the Eastern Expedition, and they must be received!" ”

In the new port of São Paulo, on the decks of Sicilian and Venetian ships, the crews are very different sights. The Venetian sailors sat on the paddling benches, in good order against the sun, while the captains gazed in amazement at the Cleopatra Gate and the lighthouse of the windmills, and looked with alarm at the great dock behind the inner walls, where there was an ill-visible cluster of workshops, whose identity was revealed by the smoke rising from the chimneys: certainly no less than the Venetian Arsenal, which must have been forging and making all kinds of cannons, guns, bows, leather armor and shields day and night.

The sailors and crews of the Sicilian ships came from different countries, including Antwerp, Saracens and Moors, some wearing sailors' leather armor with nails, some wearing high red hats, and their bodies exuded the smell of fish, and most of them carried wine bottles, and looked with worried eyes at the new city of Tarsus, the bustling commercial port and bazaar between the large docks and the docks, where there were also merchants from various countries, Aleppo, Trabzon, Iconium, Smyrna, Hot Duck, Pisa, Massella, Armenia, Persia, Cairo, you can really buy "the best goods in the world".

"Oh oh oh!" On the deck of the pilot ship, a group of sailors pointed to the stone pedal path on the shore and exclaimed in surprise, they had never seen such a sight as they had traveled from north to south: a black bullock with horns much larger than that of an ordinary ox was walking steadily, and there was actually sitting on it, three, five, seven...... Seventeen or eighteen dark-skinned and barefoot men, with ornate heads and feathers on their heads, some crossed their legs, some with their knees bent, folded on the back of the ox in the shape of an inverted pyramid, without any bumps - and later came out of the court of Tarsus on the north side of the street, and they learned that it was the envoy of the Sultan of Delhi, India, and that the whole legation was on it, and that this "buffalo" was a gift from the Sultan of Tarsus to Caesar - it could withstand contagions and epidemics, It is a great power in the rice fields, and the horn is still a better bow-making material than the yellow sheep's horn.

The next wave was used, several ships were jolted, and the Norwegians on deck and in the cabins were fine, but the Provençals were all scrambling to vomit......

At the end of the Avenue of the New Town, behind the white palace walls and lush woods, was the court of Gawain and Anna, but the garrison only allowed the leaders of the fleet to go ashore to the court, and the limit was fifty.

The rest of the sailors could only buy supplies and merchandise from the stalls set up in the docks, and could not go deep into the inner walls of the dock, and the violators would be severely punished.

Eventually, the co-king of Norway, Magnusson, Raymond's son Portland, his nephew Jordan, and the commander of the Sicilian fleet, a Moorish named Abuch (as is common in the Kingdom of Sicily), walked through the bustling streets for five girders into the court's audience chamber.

Portland came with a bitter grudge, even though his saber was confiscated by Gawain's forbidden soldiers as he walked through the gates, but he still wanted to stare at the memory of the murderous and shameless Varyag butcher who appeared in front of him immediately.

The large Audience Hall, a mixture of Byzantine, Fatimid and Córdoba, is said to have cost Gawain and Anna a thousand Byzantine gold coins every month during its construction: this is a place for state diplomacy, and this money cannot be saved.

Therefore, the envoys and merchant groups everywhere were all shocked after walking into it.

That includes Portland.

He saw a tall brown-haired king standing in the center with shoulder straps and robes draped over shoulder straps and robes, and men and women in various costumes lined up along the ornate screens on either side, including priests, soldiers, female officials, eunuchs, and royal merchants.

Of course, next to this guy is a beautiful and elegant little woman in an embroidered gold and purple robe, who is Anna. Gawain, she has just taken her husband's surname.

"Come forward and allow you to speak to the emperor and queen of New Rome." A fat eunuch in a white hat standing in front of him summoned angrily.
