Chapter 425 People from afar come to the court

Unbeknownst to the Ottomans, a plan for a partition had been launched against them. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ahmet III continued to defend Damascus with all his might, and despite the difficult battles, the army under the command of Yusuf Pasha was able to hold back the Mamluks by virtue of their numerical superiority.

After all, the latter is under-armed.

Although the Mamluks had ruled Egypt for many centuries, they were in fact just like the Eight Banners, always just a foreign conqueror above the ordinary Egyptians, and through the tax system, the Mamluks used the Egyptians as serfs, meeting the needs of the Ottoman emperors and feeding their private army raised by buying slaves. The consequence of this is that their army has become more refined and small, and their attack power is very strong in the early stage, because their subordinates are all professional killing machines that have been cultivated all year round, but they cannot cope with long-term wars, because it is difficult for them to get a quick replenishment after their losses, and such disadvantages are not so obvious in the era of cold weapons, but when guns dominate the battlefield, such an army loses its strength in front of cannon fodder.

And those serfs will not die for them.

After a series of brilliant initial victories, their lack of foundation became apparent, and the fact that they had to deal with the Ottoman attack from the direction of Cyrenaica made the two-front battle even more strained......

The stalemate in Damascus is not surprising.

The good thing is that they definitely won't lose.

After all, there was a terrifying dragon standing behind them.

"I love this!"

The dragon said with a smile on his face.

In front of him, dozens of Indians wearing animal skins with feathers on their heads and various paints on their faces are performing dances for him, this is not played by actors, this is a genuine Indian, in fact, this is the Yinzhou company specially fooled to make the emperor happy, of course, in the name of publicity, it is the Yinzhou natives who come to pay tribute to the emperor, which can be regarded as a reflection of the grand event of people coming to the court.

Everyone understands this.

As for whether the Indians understand the meaning of their coming, there is no need to worry about this, anyway, they still don't even understand Chinese, only a few merchants who trade with them understand their language as interpreters, as for their current performance, which can be called a group of demons......

Uh, they drank too much.

"Your Majesty, they are like this, they have no etiquette, they can sing when they want, they can dance when they want, a bit like those black slaves."

Li Wei next to him said cautiously.

Because he was targeted by His Majesty the Emperor, he was selected after graduating from college, as the first batch of indoctrination envoys to Yinzhou from the Ministry of Rites and Enlightenment Department to go with the merchant ship, this far-away program is from his idea, I didn't expect the emperor to personally meet and even give a banquet, and then a group of natives made old mistakes after drinking, one by one, regardless of the occasion, they danced there directly, and as a result, he was scared out of a cold sweat, and now he was very happy to see the emperor before he put down a heart.

"Well, that's true temperament too."

Yang Feng said.

"But this is also your duty, after all, the Yin people have been away from China for too long, thousands of years of life of Ru Mao drinking blood have passed, their etiquette has been lost and become pure savages, you must gradually guide them to restore my Chinese clothes, you have a long way to go!"

Then he patted Li Wei on the shoulder and said.

"Your Majesty, the ministers should do their best."

Li Wei hurriedly said.

"Don't you really like this work?"

Yang Feng asked.

"Well, the minister doesn't dare, the minister just misses his relatives a little."

Li Wei hurriedly said.

Of course he doesn't like it, but if he's not a fool, who would like to run tens of thousands of miles away to be in the company of savages! At the beginning, the propaganda of the Yin people in the Ming Dynasty was very general, and it was only said that they were very backward, and it was very abstract to what extent they were backward, so when they went, they imagined that it was similar to those natives in the Spice Islands, although it was incomparable with the Ming Dynasty, but it was definitely not unbearable, but when they got there, how could they still be said to be people, it was purely a group of unintelligent horse monkeys.

His Li family is also a rich man who is not too big or small, and he usually doesn't talk about brocade clothes and jade food, but he can't get tired of eating, and he was suddenly thrown into a group of wild people......

This gap is really big.

Especially just graduated from college, all of them are full of ambition, look at those classmates in China, one by one sitting in a spacious and bright office, wearing neat clothes, enjoying the enthusiastic eyes of the girls, while they can only watch a group of wild people wearing animal skins with feathers on their heads dancing wildly, and the sense of loss is indeed stronger.

"This is also human nature, but since you are in the country, some things must not be both, but you can rest assured, I will take care of the affairs at home, return to Yinzhou to do things well, and your future will be indispensable in the future!"

Yang Feng said.

Li Wei hurriedly knelt down and thanked him.

In fact, with Yang Feng's words, he knew that his family could be said to be rich and worry-free.

At this time, the Indians were still in the midst of the demons, and they had almost no immunity to wine in their genes, so to speak, and they were basically drunk as soon as they drank it, and one of them, who was dancing very fast, suddenly ran to a bronze statue of a decorative beast in the main hall, and suddenly hugged the thing, and roared as if he wanted to lift it. But the thing weighed more than a thousand pounds, and his face was so red that he couldn't make the beast statue shake a little, and the companions around him immediately laughed loudly, and then began to take turns in battle, and even several people joined forces, and finally all of them were helpless with the beast statue, and scratched their heads one by one.

Then Emperor Yang walked over with a smile.

He pushed away the two Indians who were in the way, and then grabbed one of the beast's legs with one hand, and lifted it up directly like a horse, and then with a little force, he lifted it above his head in the stupid eyes of the Indians.

The Indians screamed and fell to their stomachs in an instant, bowing their heads to the ground in awe, and still shouting something in their mouths.

"Your Majesty, they say you are a god."

Li Wei hurriedly bowed down and said.

"These savages aren't too stupid."

Then he added.

"Ha, ha, you have vision! Come, for you! ”

Yang Feng said with a smile to the Indian leaders.

At the same time, he casually put his beast statue in front of the leader, who lay there and bowed one after another, and then looked at the fingerprints he left on the bronze statue and couldn't help but shudder, and then Li Wei gave a translation, after understanding that Yang Feng gave this reward to himself, the leader immediately bowed excitedly one after another, and at the same time his people also bowed one after another. At this time, a group of guards outside came in, and soon went out and dragged in a small manual forklift, picked up the beast statue and dragged it out, which was the emperor's reward to the Yin people, and it would be loaded and sent back to Yinzhou with this group of envoys in the future.

"Take them out for a walk!"

Yang Feng, who finished pretending, patted Li Wei on the shoulder with satisfaction and said.

Let these Indians walk around and see the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, speaking of which the Ming at this time, it is estimated that there is no difference between the Kingdom of God in their standards, plus there is a God Emperor, it is not difficult to subdue the Indians. In fact, there is no contradiction between the Ming Dynasty and them, at this time it is still too early for the Ming Dynasty to talk about colonizing the Americas, even the East Indies have not colonized the past one million, and it is too exaggerated to talk about colonizing the Americas, even if they are lined up one by one, they will not be ranked in the short term.

He is now only blocking the colonization of Europeans.

And for the Indians, he just wanted stable trade.

Now the steel products of the Ming Dynasty have begun to enter the Indian society, especially the smoothbore guns and swords are very popular, and these things poured into the hands of the Indians, which is bound to pose a huge threat to the European colonists who went westward, after all, the weapons in the hands of the European colonists at this time may not be as advanced as them. Although the Indians were scattered and easily broken by the European colonists by various means, a large number of dead people were inevitably killed in the process of their breaking, especially after instigating the Indians to capture the white slaves in the future, which was very fatal to those scattered small-scale colonists.

Then let the two of them keep killing each other in the New World, first kill for more than ten or twenty years, and then say, the Ming merchants will sell some arms and buy some slaves in the back, and build a few commercial bases on the West Coast, at most they will open a few gold mines, anyway, just don't cross the Rocky Mountain, just the Indians in California just need to surrender.

Later, when his population is enough, let's talk about it.

Even if you want to go out to colonize, you will colonize the Spice Islands and Australia by 10 million, and then you should save the entire Golden State if it has a population of less than 150,000!

His most important target now remains the Middle East.

If you don't get rid of Mu Dabeard, he is not at ease after all, this is the side of the couch, after driving God's power out of Asia, other gods and Buddhas have no threat to him, Buddhism needless to say, Hinduism is not qualified to threaten, other messy religions have long been in decline, and there is only Mu Dabeard's gang. Southeast Asia has just been cleaned up but it is still a bit dead, the Central Asian Ming army has actually faced them directly, India is also still the territory of Mu Dabeard, so the green half surrounds the Ming, such an enemy does not fight to the death, it is possible that one day there will be a big mess.

"Your Majesty, Guo Hong's military headquarters has arrived in Aden, and he asks if he will continue to expand outward and completely wipe out the Yemeni ministries?"

Chief of the General Staff Feng Zhen reported to him.

"Go on."

Yang Feng said without hesitation.

"And what about those who refuse to take refuge?"

Feng Zhen asked again.

"Kill, neither convert to Wanghua nor die, what are such people still for?"

Yang Feng said. (To be continued.) )
