There is a flood of people outside the Nanguan Gate, and countless people rush into this prosperous imperial capital of the Western Regions every day. The streets of the city were bustling with people wearing their traditional robes, men wearing turbans, and women wearing veils. Suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves and luan bells ringing in the streets, very urgent, and from time to time there was the sound of horse whips whipping something. Apparently someone is running horses in the city, and they are still using horsewhips to drive pedestrians to clear the way! The people stumbled away. Everyone knows that these are the lords of the kingdom who have official business to do, and they deserve to trample their horses to death!

More than 100 healthy horses swept over the market, and most of the knights on horseback wore red battle jackets, and there were red lacquered leather armor on the outside of the battle jackets, and their faces were also oriental. On the backs of only a few horses were Semu people wearing arabesque robes, and one of them was Pu Shou Geng!

It's a bit like Quanzhou!

Pu Shougeng looked at the streets of Fold and somehow thought of Quanzhou - is there a similarity between Fold and Quanzhou?

It seems that there is, and the two cities are a mix of Eastern and Western people...... At least the Quanzhou that Pu Shougeng is familiar with has many colors and white eyes.

Right now...... Quanzhou City probably doesn't have a foothold for the Semu people, right? Pu Shougeng thought complicatedly.

"Ah......h

A miserable scream came to mind on the side of the road, interrupting Pu Shougeng's thoughts. He turned his head to look, and it turned out to be an old man with colored eyes falling to the ground, as if he couldn't dodge and was whipped down by Wang Yuanbao with a horsewhip.

Wang Yuanbao ignored it, and only rode his horse and hurried away, heading in the direction of Kuyu Khan City. Now it is the first in Mongolia and the second in the Eight Banners. Lustful people are worthless. Last night, Wang Yuanbao slept with a flower-like girl, who was said to be the most beautiful woman in the village. Every time a Mongolian or Han Baqi from elsewhere came to stay in the village, Lord Arut would ask her to sleep with her. Wang Yuanbao slept with her all night. When she left, she was given a very low silver dinar, and she thanked her for it, as it seemed that no one had given her money before. As for the bride of Semu, who had married into the village last night, she had gone into the house of Arut's son after drinking the wedding wine, but this morning she came out of Arut's house. This ** is really unforgettable......

How can this be! The life of the Semu is also the life...... Pu Shougeng looked at the old man, as if he had seen his own shadow, and his face was full of misery. Now he really misses Quanzhou, of course, Quanzhou, where people of all colors and beliefs of all colors and beliefs can live in harmony by his own hands.

I was born and raised in heaven. but single-handedly destroyed the sinners of heaven...... Pu Shougeng let out a long sigh. In a paradise like Quanzhou, Pu Shougeng traveled to the West, but he had only seen it in Granada.

"Mr. Pu, Quanzhou Khan City is coming!" Wang Yuanbao suddenly said loudly at this time, "We can't ride horses in Khan City, but the south gate of Khan City is not very far from the Great Khan's palace. ”

"Oh, got it." Pu Shougeng came out of his thoughts at this time, and when he looked up, a city wall that seemed to be brand new appeared in front of him. A hole was opened in the city wall. The door opened, and a group of soldiers of the Eight Banners of Han in white clothes and white armor stood guard at the door.

"That's it, dismount!"

Wang Yuanbao ordered loudly. Pu Shougeng also hurriedly turned over and got off the horse, together with his son Pu Shiwen. followed Wang Yuanbao and others into Khan City. The area of Khan City is not small, as if half of the city belongs to Khan City. However, it is not as prosperous as the outer city, and there are not many pedestrians on the street. There are no shops, and there are no people to be seen. Almost all of them are Orientals with yellow faces and black hair. There are Mongols, and there are Han Chinese. However, the difference between the two is not very big. There are also some lamas in the Khan City, wearing red robes, wandering around in groups of three or five, and they don't change their fate, looking at their faces, it seems that they are doing well.

After walking for a while, Pu Shougeng suddenly heard the sound of reading in Chinese, which was reading in Chinese, as if it was the "Three Character Classic". He looked around and saw a building with a sign of the academy, and looking at the shape of the building, it turned out to be a Tianfang Temple.

"Mr. Pu, that's a college, a place for children to study." Wang Yuanbao enthusiastically acted as a tour guide, "Now there are all the big cities in the land of the Three Rivers, the children of the Han Eight Banners and Meng Shijue, and some children of the high-class people have to study here." ”

"Reading? What to teach? Pu Shougeng inquired curiously.

"Teaching Confucianism, Buddhism and martial arts is still bilingual in Mongolian and Chinese." Wang Yuanbao said with joy on his face.

Although he could speak a little Mongolian and Turkic, he did not recognize a single big character, and he did not have the conditions to go to school as a child, but his sons had the opportunity to study. When he was in the Central Plains, he didn't even have a wife, but when he arrived in the Western Regions, he inexplicably became a superior person and was incorporated into the Eight Banners. A while ago, some women were brought in the flag to marry a bachelor who had not started a family. Wang Yuanbao got a stout Kipchak woman, who had been plundered from the territory of the Golden Horde.

Although they are not pretty, the Kipchaks are a mixture of Eastern and Western people, and they look somewhat similar to the Mongols and Han Chinese. In today's land of three rivers, the number of Han women is very small, and it is not the turn of the Han Eight Banners soldiers at all. Although there are more Mongolian women than men (many Mongolian women's husbands died in battle), the Mongolian widows do not marry outside, and they are inherited by someone in the husband's family. Therefore, the lower echelons of the Han Eight Banners can only find women from Kipchaks, Tatars, and Mi'er beggars to marry, and if there is really nothing to look at, they will look for Semu women.

"When my doll is born, if it is a boy, I will also ask him to study hard in the future, and maybe he can be a jinshi." Wang Yuanbao's face was full of joy and said to himself. The Kipchak woman of his family is already pregnant with a child, and it will not be long before she will give birth. His life is getting better day by day, and the future seems to be very promising!

Is there really hope? Pu Shougeng saw the hope on Wang Yuanbao's face, but in his heart he thought of Granada, and thought of the army that crossed the sea from Mingzhou. The Christian nations of Iberia have already colluded with the Ming, and they will soon be armed by the Ming. When the Ming army marched westward, the Christian crusade was sandwiched between two ends...... But some of you are so miserable!

Thinking that these powerful Mongols and Han Eight Banners in this Khan city would eventually be as unlucky as himself, Pu Shougeng's heart was actually a lot better. He straightened his chest and followed Wang Yuanbao towards Kublai Khan's palace.

……

"What!? Pu Shougeng, what do you say? The thief came to Europa from the sea to the west? How is this possible? The thief is obviously from the east......"

Kublai Khan asked angrily, and even the roof of the palace seemed to shake because of his roar. The news brought by Pu Shougeng was so shocking that it almost shattered his dreams. Before his Kublai Khan's army set off, the Ming fleet actually reached the westernmost land of Europa first!

"Great Khan, the thief did come from the west, and it is possible, because the earth is round."

Pu Shougeng replied in a flat tone.

"How can the earth be round!" Kublai Khan couldn't believe it, although he had already known about the 'Earth Circle Theory' from some publications from the Ming Dynasty, but he took it as a joke at all.

"You talk nonsense! Pu Shougeng, you are cheating me! Do you think you can trick me into letting go of the hateful Mamluks? ”

In fact, Kublai Khan did not immediately plan to attack Egypt, although Liu Xiaoyuan had been encouraging him to become the pharaoh of Egypt. However, Kublai Khan felt that the Mamluks in Egypt were more powerful than the natives of Europa, and it was more advantageous to pinch the soft persimmons. And from the map, Egypt seems to be surrounded by large deserts, which is not very conducive to the movement of the Mongol cavalry. The eastern part of Europa is all grasslands and plains, and the horses and rivers are flat, which is conducive to the power of the Mongol cavalry. In addition, the climate in Eastern and Central Europe is relatively comfortable (in the eyes of the Mongols), and it is too hot in Egypt.

"Great Khan, it is not difficult to investigate whether he deceived you or not. Michael VIII of Constantinople must have known the inside story of the Battle of Granada, he was the father-in-law of Abaha Khan and Nahai Khan, and you only need to send someone to inquire about it. ”

Pu Shougeng said slowly, without the slightest nervousness on his face, but a little schadenfreude.

"I'll find out!" Kublai Khan seemed to suppress some of his anger, and the expression on his face softened a lot. However, his henchmen knew that the Great Khan was not actually angry, but frightened by the sudden bad news. He yelled to hide his fear.

The atmosphere in the hall became tense, and most people believed what Pu Shougeng said - there was no point in joking on this issue. Regardless of whether the ground is square or round, Chen Dexing's people have already taken the sea route to Europa anyway. All eyes were on Kublai Khan.

The Mongol Great Khan snorted, his face completely calm, "If what you say is true, I may consider accepting the submission of Baibers!" ”

An alliance was impossible, and after subduing the Golden Horde and the Ilkhanate, Kublai Khan theoretically already had a huge empire, with thousands of miles from north to south, and hundreds of thousands of elite troops. And Baibers only has Egypt and half of Syria, plus a maximum of 30,000 Mamluk soldiers and a tribal army of hundreds of thousands, which can only be regarded as a rabble.

"Baghdad, I can also give it to him, but there is only one Baghdad city!" Kublai Khan thought about it for a while, he had already figured out his situation, and now there was no need to be an enemy of the Mamluks. He said, "As for the ...... Leah, you can also give him, those holy places, I have no interest in the slightest! However, Bibers also has to do things for me, and I know that the Caliphate, the leader of the Celestial Sect, is in his hands, and the Caliph can call for the Holy War! I want a holy battle, and the target is the thief! All Tianfang cultists, whether in Europa, North Africa, or Tianzhu, must participate! (To be continued......)
