No matter what era it is, the politicians have an extremely keen sense of politics, otherwise, their fate is often not good. In particular, when the international political situation is tense, whether or not there is often a misjudgment is the season to test the ability of the king of a country. At this time, the Mediterranean Sea is in such a state of tension.

Because the Ottoman Empire, having already taken Constantine, seems to have nothing left to stop its pace.

So the Venetians and the surrounding neighbors sensed the panic, and they began to huddle together to keep warm. And Ding Yi was clearly the object of their solidarity that they would not miss, especially after Mehmed II declared war on Ding Yi in his personal name. The Suez Canal welcomed its first guests a few months ago.

It's just that Yu Qian didn't go to meet them immediately, for Qian, the envoy of Fanbang asked to meet, of course, he had to wait in line until the Celestial Empire was in the mood and had spare time, and it was not too late to come and meet again. Therefore, they waited for four days to see Yu Qian.

When they made an appeal, Yu Qian said: "The Ming Dynasty has declared war with the Ottoman Dynasty so far, and the personal grievances between Mehmed II and Rujin should be left to them to settle on their own." "Do you want to take advantage of Da Sima here? That's a dream, in addition to good power, this person is basically a generalist in civil and military affairs, not to mention that now his asthma is basically better, and his spirit is quite good.

Zhao Fu, who stayed in Egypt, didn't understand, but he was born as a traditional border general, and for a superb civil official like Da Sima, and Ding Yi's teacher, he didn't dare to ask. If you are dissatisfied, you can only write a letter to Wang Yue to reflect. However, Wang Yue quickly replied to Zhao Fu, with only one sentence: "Soldiers take obedience as their duty." Don't make assumptions. ”

Don't think too much about it. Zhao Fu began to look dissatisfied with this, and obedience is right. Didn't Dante still talk about the democratization of the military? He is also an old man who has followed Ding Yi in Guangxi, and he is still very clear about the atmosphere under Ding Yi. Unless a military order has been issued, it is possible to put forward one's own views and opinions.

What's more, he is not a grassroots officer and soldier, how can he say that he is also a middle and high-level general, is he a puppet?

When Ding Yi's fleet arrived at the Mugu Capital Bundle, Zhao Fu's complaint was just about to be sent out.

"Send the clippers to teach him." Ding Yi immediately instructed Fat Man Wen.

After the arrival of this voyage, Ding Yi seemed much more relaxed. It's not just that Liu Ji has been trained and can do anything, but more importantly. He brought Du Ziteng over.

It was the morning of this day when he arrived at Mugudushu, and the troops had not yet completely landed, so Du Ziteng got Ding's consent, so he named and left a brigade to cooperate with the first regiment of the East African garrison area to station Mugudushu together. The rest of the personnel, along with the two black divisions that had been tied to Mu Gudu, began to set out from land to Suez, without even making a transition to stop and station.

"Sir. That's too much. Liu Ji looked at it and frowned a little.

Why do you say that? Because it was noon now, the division troops and a black division that had been stationed in Mugudushu had already set off, and the brigade that had been named by Du Ziteng was going ashore to start lunch; Two more brigades. One of them hadn't gotten out of the boat yet, and the other had not yet gotten out of the ship, and the equipment such as the barrel gun and machine gun had not yet been removed.

It can be said that it can be said. It's a mess.

"If there is a war against the Ottomans, time will surely be more urgent than this." Ding Yi sat at the bar in the concession. Looking out the window at the troops unloading ammunition, he shook the cup in his hand. "Our superiority in firepower is only in the coastal zone, and if we cannot adapt to such maneuvers, then in the event of a war, soldiers will only become targets."

"But sir, after all, it's a long journey, a sea journey!" Liu Ji was very upset for those soldiers, since he participated in a landing and beach grabbing in North Korea, he really realized the difficulties of the front-line soldiers, and from time to time he would speak for the grassroots soldiers, "I won't tell you, the disciple is still dizzy!" ”

Ding Yi smiled and asked the bartender to pour a glass of wine made from cactus and pushed it to Liu Ji: "Taste it, I think this can cure headaches." Of course, it is not guaranteed to work for you. However, when Liu Ji was about to pick up the wine glass, Ding Yi reached out and grabbed it and drank it all, "I'm sorry, you're still at work today." I asked for leave, I asked for leave before 10 years, and when I arrived at Mugudushu, I was going to take three days off! Hahaha! ”

"Boss, I'm afraid you won't be able to take a vacation." Qian Chujiu came over, but said this to Ding Yi.

Because the envoys sent by Venice, Moldova, Hungary, and Skanderbeg have been living in the concession for a long time. After they were rejected by Yu Qian, they felt that they couldn't go back, so they negotiated again, and they had a consensus, that is, Ding Yi would not just forget it.

"No one has ever been able to provoke Poseidon after without paying the price." They summed up such a thing, so the next inference is that Ding Yi will definitely raise troops to leap into the west. Therefore, waiting for Ding Yi's arrival in the wooden bone capital was the way they could think of.

And when they saw the fleet docking, these envoys immediately came to ask for a meeting, Qian Chujiu listened to their appeals, where did he dare to reply? I had to come to find Ding Yi. This is not a trade treaty, once it is announced that it will join the anti-Austrian coalition, it will start to take sides, and Qian Chujiu will not agree to such a thing privately.

"Let them wait." Ding Yi now seems determined to get rid of the workaholic mode, "They have waited for so long, and if it takes three days, there won't be any problems, right?" Liu Ji listened on the side, but he already knew that Ding Yi meant that he didn't intend to make these countries feel that Ding Yi was going to fight the Ottomans and definitely formed an alliance with them.

Ding Yi really put down his work completely in these three days, except for having a meal with those descendants of Jinyi Wei who went to the West with Zheng He and stayed in the wooden bones, he really didn't do anything serious. He even went into the rainforest with a platoon of guards to hunt and visit the rainforest tribes that had soldiers joined the Negro Expatriate Division to see if their quality of life had improved.

"Of course they are willing to go to Rongcheng Academy's Mugu Dushu Affiliated Primary School!" The soldiers of the 1st Regiment of the East African Garrison Regiment, who accompanied him, briefed Ding Yi on the situation. And everywhere Ding Yi went, the popularization of the Ming official dialect was a clear proof. Yes, in the past ten years of the rainforest tribe, the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty has been continuously popularized.

Not everyone will say that it is impossible.

But basically in every tribe, there will be one or two people who can speak the official language of the Ming Dynasty, and often these two people are the richest people in the tribe, because they can explain the words, they can trade in the wooden bone bundle. And for them, the sense of belonging to the tribe is gradually weakening almost every year: "No, I am not going to be a chief!" "Almost all of these tribes, the black people who can speak the official language of the Ming Dynasty have a common value orientation.

"Da Ming? No, we don't have money, that's heaven! When I have scraped together enough money to buy a house in the concession, I will bring my seven wives and fifteen cubs with me...... Yes, I can apply to become a military household of Daming! I want to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty! Let the cubs learn Mandarin and then go to school...... "That's the desire of the blacks who make money in the rainforest tribes."

They don't even speak "Daming official language", but directly speak "official language".

Probably because of the Jews, the household registration of the Ming Dynasty has now become very tight.

Even the military household registration in the East African garrison area is equally unattainable, not only to pass the guò Chinese language test, but also to guarantee, but also to guarantee property and property. Even if these conditions are not a problem, you will have to go through an interview with the head of the Guò household department stationed in the Mugu Capital Concession, and then the East African Garrison will do a background check, etc. I'm sorry, I have to queue up slowly, because every year the wooden bones are tied here, and there are only twenty places.

"You have to work hard, in terms of quotas, if there are many qualified applicants, the household department will open up more places." Ding Yi was very happy, which made Qian Chujiu, who was with him, a little incomprehensible, and felt that it seemed to make Ding Yi happier than the Waifan Dynasty.

"What you don't understand, tribute, it's just the attitude of the ruler." Ding Yi said to Qian Chujiu with a smile.

"And this kind of household registration application is a kind of people's attitude, which shows the status of Daming in their hearts."

As a military household registration in the East African garrison area of the Ming Dynasty, Ding Yi proposed the design of the "green card" to the household department with great bad taste, and the household department would certainly not dismiss Ding Yi's opinion on such trivial matters. Therefore, the Daming green card is so sought after, Ding Yi has a complex, which makes him feel a kind of comfort, a kind of raised eyebrows that other people in this era can't experience.

"Go to Mahe and have a look." Ding Yi proposed this itinerary with great interest.

Although Wen Fatzi and Liu Ji tried their best to dissuade them, because Mahe Island is in the middle of the sea! It's a pity that Ding Yi didn't listen at all.

Fortunately, the sea was stormy, and it was difficult for the ships to go out to sea from the shore, so Ding Yi's intention to go to the island to comfort the officers and soldiers on the island was discouraged.

Three days was not a long time, and the Venice envoys finally waited for Ding Yi's reception.

"How many troops are you going to send? How many ships are there in the Navy? How much tonnage? How many cavalry is there in the army? How many infantry? What is the geometry of the armorer? As soon as they proposed the alliance, Ding unceremoniously cut off the words of these emissaries, "There must be an exact number for this, otherwise this alliance has no substantive significance; The command of the troops must be handed over to our side in a unified manner, otherwise it will also be meaningless, and for me, it is better not to have a chaotic army, a unit that cannot act in a unified manner. ”

He stood tall like a lion, looking down on the messengers, seeing that even if they were angry, even if they were dissatisfied, they had to bury them deep in their hearts. He no longer needs to cover himself, no longer needs, whether it is to other countries or to this era. (To be continued......) R1292
