Chapter 193: Unfriendly Aborigines

Han Xing's small fleet eventually made its way to the legendary Egypt, the birthplace of the world's oldest recorded civilization. The floodplains of the Nile fed the Egyptians and this ancient civilization. However, there is a saying that "success is also bad, defeat is also bad", and the richness of the Nile River gave Egypt unrivaled wealth, but also made them arrogant and unenterprising.

Although the Celestial Empire also has a long history, it is a pity that we are not as vain as foreigners, we like to play treasures, we are not interested in great buildings, and the Great Wall was built for defensive purposes. This directly leads to the fact that there is almost no history of the era of legends, which leads to the fact that foreign countries have not recognized our 5,000 years of history, and it is generally believed that our history is only 3,000 to 4,000 years, which is absolutely jealousy!

But our pragmatism has paid off, hasn't it? Today, the other three ancient civilizations have turned to dust, leaving only piles of cold stones and ruins, witnessing the glorious past of that land, and we still stand proudly in this world.

Seeing that he had reached the Nile, Han Xing did not see the legendary Alexander Lighthouse, one of the legendary Seven Wonders of the World, which was the only memorial left by the conqueror Alexander for posterity! He once left behind his corpse and the Great Library, and Caesar once visited to see his appearance, but unfortunately time passed, the Great Library and his corpse were destroyed by the war and the destruction of the mad Roman Emperor, and only this Great Lighthouse remained.

But along the way, Han Xing did pass through a few cities that were quite passable, but he didn't find any trace of the big lighthouse in any place, according to the records, the big lighthouse is a very tall and bright building, after all, the role of the lighthouse is to guide the direction of passing ships in the fog or at night! There's no reason I can't see it!

If he had asked Napoleon, he would have learned from Napoleon's mouth the reason for the great lighthouse of Alexandria that had been destroyed by an earthquake in 1480! What Han Xing saw in later generations was just a copy restored by the Egyptian government!

The Nile may have been once wide and clear, with fertile alluvial plains on both sides, but now it is in decline, after all, after nearly thousands of years of change, the Yellow River was once not yellow? The Nile has a lot of sediment, and the water is only shallow, as if it were a wide pond of mud than a river. After all, the Mamluks did not know how to manage rivers and clean up the silt and sand!

Han Xing began to feel glad that he had bought the galleys and the Bucks, because with the current depth of the Nile, the Goliath would probably run aground!

"Looks like we're going to have to rely on these two galleys for the rest of our journey!" Han Xing patted the side of the boat and faced the crowd on the side of the (shēn).

"Egypt is such a place full of exotic (qíng) tones! Hanschel, can we not go back to that boring place! Lyanna sighed at the beautiful scenery in front of her and pleaded with Han Xing.

"Promise me, if something happens, you'll be back there as soon as possible!" Han Xing didn't know what to say at all, and just as he hesitated, Rhaegar replied for him.

Han Xing immediately borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and said: "You can stay, but once something unexpected happens, those who have no combat effectiveness must go back immediately!" There was no objection.

Han Xing deliberately threw Sir Hansen and Roy onto the Buck, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble between them and the people in his own space, and Han Xing could also speak freely (yù) without worrying that the secret of his possession of the [Riverside District] would be revealed.

"Dad, what's that place?" Louis XVI is holding his precious son Louis in his arms? Charlie, father and son were watching the scenery on the side of the ship, when the pyramid had come into their sight, so little Louis pointed to the pyramid and asked.

"That's the pyramid! The kings of ancient Egypt built buildings that are nearly 4,000 years old! The kings of ancient Egypt thought they could step on the pyramids and go to the sky and reach heaven! Louis XVI pointed to the pyramid in the distance and said kindly to little Louis.

"So did they succeed? Those kings of ancient Egypt? Did they really go to heaven? Little Louis (nǎi) asked with big eyes in a wink.

"Remember, Charlie, only pious faith and high character can bring a person into heaven, and no tall building can send the most sinful people into heaven!" After saying that, Louis XVI drew a cross at the mouth of the (xiōng): "Remember, there are no shortcuts to heaven, Amen!" ”

Han Xing expressed helplessness to His Majesty Louis, who suddenly became a devout believer, maybe after going through so much, he really needed to find a spiritual sustenance to explain his incredible experience!

Mary was laughing and talking to Lyanna with a glass of wine, as if she was talking about some female (xìng) topic, clothes, cosmetics and other things. The two were giggling and obviously talking very happily, and the two were indeed very complementary, one was a female knight who did not let her eyebrows go, and the other was a noblewoman who lived in the court, and Lyanna taught Mary horseback riding and swordsmanship, which Mary was stopped from contact with (jìn) when she was a child. Mary taught Lyanna what she taught to dress up these women, after all, from the bottom of her heart, there is no woman who is not beautiful.

If Lyanna hadn't met Rhaeggar, she might have lived a life similar to Mary's, becoming Robert's wife like a noble lady, bound to the castle and red tape. Wasn't Mary's profligacy, and vanity, cultivated in the court where the human heart was as deep as the sea?

Rhaegar was smiling and holding the wine glass in his left hand and Lyanna in his right hand, but when he saw Marie and Lyanna start chatting, he immediately bowed his head and left with a sense of humor. Instead, he went to talk to his three friends, Geralt, Oswell, and Arthur.

Han Xing gradually began to feel that he was on a mistake in this boat, as he seemed to be unable to intervene at all, so he fled to the Stag and played with Sir Hansen and Roy.

Just when everything was enjoying itself and everyone was immersed in the qíng (exotic winds on the Nile), Sir Hansen suddenly exclaimed: "Look over there! He exclaimed, pointing to the distant sand dunes on the starboard side.

"Look at what? My Sir Hansen! Nothing? Han Xing looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw nothing except the wind and sand and the endless undulating sand dunes, so he asked in wonder.

"Someone! Someone is stalking us! Sir Hansen said firmly, and as he spoke, he drew his purple longbow and looked in that direction warily.

"Are you dazzled? Who would have eaten enough to eat and have nothing to do, and run into the desert to eat sand, just to ambush two small boats! We don't have anything of value on our ship! Han Xing gave him a blank look.

"No, I saw something too! Gray in that direction, don't you notice? Roy actually took out a longbow and said as he wound it.

"Hey, don't scare me! Could it be that Immorton has woken up? Isn't it normal for the desert to be windy and sandy, and the sky is full of yellow sand? Han Xing looked in that direction with palpitations, and sure enough, he felt that the sky on that side was gray, almost the color of yellow sand, and the true color of the blue sky could hardly be seen.

"Is it a sandstorm?" A bad thought flashed through Han Xing's heart. As if to test his guess, there was a muffled thunder and rumbling in that direction.

"Look, it's the Mamluks!" The sharp-eyed Sir Hansen first spotted a Mamluk cavalryman on a hill. He was wrapped in a white turban, except for a pair of eyes as sharp as a knife, his whole body was wrapped under a white robe, he held a scimitar in his right hand, and held the reins of a horse in his left hand.

Han Xing exhaled heavily, "Fortunately, it's not a sandstorm!" Then he laughed and said, "Look at your bear-like, but just one person can scare you to pee!" ”

"There is definitely more than one of them! Have you forgotten what we just heard? Sir Hansen looked at Han Xing intently.

"How many will there be? Dozens? Hundreds? We're on the water now, so why be afraid of them! Don't even try to catch us! Han Xing sneered.

It's a pity that he said a prophecy, and from behind the sand dunes came out one after another Mamluk cavalry wielding scimitars, and finally behind the entire sand dunes emerged Mamluk cavalry like an ocean, at least thousands! It's an army!

"What do they want to do? It's only a dozen kilometers away from Cairo, so are they going to do that 'business without capital' in broad daylight? Aren't they afraid that the local police, ano, the rulers will find out about their crimes? Aren't they afraid to be punished by the law? Han Xing almost blurted out.

"I seriously doubt that they are the official organization in the local area, otherwise who do you think can mobilize so many troops in other countries?" Sir Hansen smiled wryly.

"Quick, quick, everyone, get back into space! Something big is coming! Han Xing hurriedly came to the Running Wolf and said to everyone on board.

Before everyone could evacuate, a Mamluk cavalry appeared on the left bank of the Nile, and Han Xing's two boats formed a trap.

"Do any of you know Egyptian?" Han Xing looked at the Mamluk cavalry that had already entered the kilometer range and was close to his side, and asked in a daze. The two of them on the side of (shēn) both shook their heads like rattles, "It's miserable, then I'm sure we're done now!" ”

Because under Han Xing's gaze, the Mamluk cavalry in front of him actually took out a musket, and each of them was still one????????????
