The Fire Man shook his head, his face already a look of horror.

No matter how powerful the bow and crossbow are, when they shoot the bow and arrow, they can see the trajectory of the arrow missing its flight, but when Da Ming shoots this raindrop metal object, they can't see it at all.

What kind of speed does it take for people to lose sight of their flight tracks?

"Daming's firearms are completely different from the firearms we have seen!" Ma Heima is not a real stupid Bai Tian, for a moment, he also thought that Daming's firearms are so powerful, will he be able to get rid of the control of Daming people in the future?

As soon as the fire man saw Ma Heima's expression, he guessed his thoughts, and only felt that Ma Heima was no wonder that he would fall to this step today, and his thoughts were extremely shallow, so he had to remind, "Your Highness, an army like the Ming Dynasty is not something that Timur can resist, even if Timur and the Ottoman State are together, they can't stop the pace of the Ming army's conquest." ”

Ma Heima pondered for a long time, and he finally made up his mind, "Yes, but I don't think the Ming Dynasty has the intention of conquering Timur, if they want to conquer Timur, there will not be only so many more than 100 people coming, it must be thousands of troops!" ”

Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated.

Ma Heima asked, "You say, should I send someone to Daming to see how the country is doing?" ”

The fire man said, "The subordinates think that His Royal Highness doesn't have to worry about such a heart, the people of Daming have already come to Timur in two groups, according to the character of the Great Khan, they will definitely not be at ease with Daming, and they will inevitably arrange for people to go to Daming to investigate, and when they come back, we will naturally get the news." ”

The fire man didn't want to be at this time, and Ma Hei Ma had extraneous branches, because he was suspicious of Daming, and offended the people of Daming.

Ma Heima heard that it made a lot of sense, and said, "You send someone to Zhu Sigongzi to have a look, if Zhu Sigongzi wakes up, I will have breakfast with him." ”

In addition to thanking him for saving his life, Ma Heima naturally wanted to tie up with Zhu Gaoxian, so he decided to condescend to accompany Zhu Gaoxian to breakfast.

Zhu Gaoxian woke up naturally from his sleep and threw a set of punches in the yard.

The dog asked people to come up with a handkerchief and a basin to serve Zhu Gaoxian, and when he saw the fireman coming, Zhu Gaoxian threw the handkerchief into the basin and nodded at the fireman.

Sai Hazhi hurriedly came over and led the fireman to salute Zhu Gaoxian, and the fireman said respectfully, "Your Highness wants to invite Zhu Sigongzi to have breakfast together to thank you for your kindness last night!" ”

Zhu Gaoxian smiled, feeling that the person who was the fire man was really interesting, and he didn't expose his lies, and nodded, "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey!" ”

The fireman was overjoyed and respectfully retreated.

Sai Hazhi followed behind Zhu Gaoxian and said suspiciously, "His Royal Highness Ma Heima is knowledgeable, and he has realized the strength of my Daming, and he also knows that he wants to thank us for saving our lives." ”

He was not grateful in his heart, but jealous, and if he was bolder, he would be resentful. Such people are easy to deal with. “

After changing his clothes, Zhu Gaoxian went to the banquet.

Breakfast was placed in the flower hall, the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers, mixed with the surging smell of blood, and the smell of food wafted with the wind, which hooked the greedy worms in Zhu Gaoxian's stomach.

"You may be seated!"

Seeing Zhu Gaoxian coming, Ma Heima hurriedly stood up, went down a few steps, greeted him personally, took Zhu Gaoxian's arm, and helped him to the flower hall.

"Your Highness is gracious!" Zhu Gaoxian quietly pulled out his arm and sat on the table with Ma Heima, one left and one right.

The maids who twisted the waist of the water snake came up to set the table, and kept shaking their round buttocks in front of Zhu Gaoxian, and their waists swayed like willow branches. ”

Zhu Gaoxian couldn't understand the language of this side, his hand paused, and then he heard Ma Heimaa ask, "Fourth Master Zhu, what do you think of my maid?" If you like it, I'll give it to you! ”

Zhu Gaoxian looked the woman up and down, and said with a smile, "In my Daming, slaves and maids are not qualified to warm the master's bed. Although my identity is not obvious, I am not so good that anyone can climb into my bed casually. ”

This woman's face turned red, if it was a Ming woman, Zhu Gaoxian would naturally not lose her face like this, but unfortunately, he is a narrow-minded nationalist, and it is difficult to have a good impression of a woman of a different race.

Ma Heima felt disappointed, waved his hand, kicked these women out, and asked without giving up, "They are all good-looking, I have also asked someone to train them, is the fourth son really not interested?" Men, how can there be no warm jade soft fragrance in the arms at night, and it is impossible to sleep alone. ”

"Your Highness is very right, but, how does Your Highness know that among the women here, which one really has a heart for His Highness? Which one came by order? There is a way that is a woman's heart, a needle under the sea, even if she is under you, it is possible that she thinks of someone else in her heart. ”

Ma Heima was suddenly shocked, for him, women were not something worthy of his eyes, and because of this, he never thought about what the woman under him was thinking, so he took a fancy to it, so he pulled it over and used it, and threw it aside.

"I see!" Ma Heima arched his hand towards Zhu Gaoxian, "I've been taught!" It's no wonder that my house is like a sieve, a little wind and grass, my fourth uncle knows it, I really underestimate these women. ”

"Those who achieve great things are not informal, but in the environment of His Highness, His Highness still has to be careful. The more inconspicuous the person, the more attention should be paid to it, and the more such a person, the easier it is to get it. ”

"That's it, come, I'll toast you!"

Ma Heima was still drinking at breakfast, Zhu Gaoxian was a little uncomfortable, he picked up the teacup, "I replace wine with tea, it's not a tribute!" ”

Ma Heima is an alcoholic, and he doesn't necessarily have to be accompanied, and he doesn't care.

Samarkand is a diverse city that blends the cultures and arts of Damascus, Turkish, Turkic, Mongolian, and Georgian countries, as well as its food.

The meat patty here is a bit like the mille-feuille cake that Zhu Gaoxian ate in later generations, but, the skin is thin, the filling is big, the fried brown skin is soaked in the juice of the meat filling, and when you bite into it, the meat filling is fragrant but not greasy, soft and glutinous, and it is very delicious.

A round meatloaf was cut into two knives, a total of four pieces, stacked together in a triangular shape, and the beef wrapped in it was fragrant, and Zhu Gaoxian ate two pieces in one go.

Turkish-style burritos, like bread, brushed with egg yolks and garnished with sesame seeds, are baked until the surface is browned and gives off an enticing smell.

"I'm really relieved to see that the fourth prince can get used to our food here." Ma Heima said a word of sincerity, he carefully observed Zhu Gaoxian's hands, there were no calluses anywhere on his hands, and at first glance he was a pampered person.

Such a person will stay in a city for the girl he likes, and he will leave a city for the food he doesn't like.

"The food here is very flavorful and delicious, and I want to bring a few cooks back with me when I go back in the future."

"It's easy to do, it's on me." Ma Heima smiled, "However, before that, we need to solve some problems, otherwise, the fourth prince may not be able to leave." ”

"Of course I do!" Zhu Gaoxian smiled, "This is not a problem, I think that soon, the Great Khan will summon His Highness again, and of course I will be among the ranks of being summoned." ”

Ma Heima was suddenly very nervous, the conditions given by Shaharu will definitely exceed the conditions he gave, he is now in danger, will Zhu Sigongzi still protect him?

"However, rest assured, Your Highness. I am a person who values love and righteousness, and His Royal Highness is the successor designated by the Great Khan, and I belong to orthodoxy. I will always stand on the side of the Four Highnesses, protect His Highnesses, and fight for His Highness's interests. ”

"Moreover, last night, because His Highness was attacked here, I was frightened, and I am afraid that I will not be able to go out today."

Ma Heima suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "However, the Great Khan summoned me, and I can't help but go." If I go and can't get out of the palace, what can I do? ”

"In this world, there is no fortress that I can't break. With me outside, Your Highness can go with peace of mind. Zhu Gaoxian said, "However, my previous proposal to invite mercenaries will be considered by His Highness." ”

Ma Heima thought that his main force died last night, and his heart was not good for a while, but fortunately, he still had a lot of property and could afford to hire the mercenaries of the Ming Dynasty.

"In this matter, can the fourth prince be a matchmaker in the middle?"

"Naturally!" Zhu Gaoxian said, "The strength of the Daming firearms, His Highness should have seen it last night, and correspondingly, the cost will naturally be very high, but I believe that this is not a problem for His Highness." ”

"In addition, although Daming's firearms are prohibited from being sold, Daming has many other weapons that can be exported in addition to firearms, and I suggest that Your Highness can buy more and equip your army."

"This matter also has to be driven by the fourth son!" After Ma Heima's firearms were seen, he also had confidence in Daming's backward weapons, and without saying a word, he agreed to come down, and decided to start preparing funds to buy them after breakfast.

A meal, after eating for half an hour, until Shaharu sent someone to invite Ma Heima into the palace, and said that he heard that he had a distinguished guest of the Ming Dynasty here, and asked Ma Heima to bring the distinguished guest into the palace to meet him.

Zhu Gaoxian avoided it, and when Ma Heima's people came to invite, Zhu Gaoxian naturally used the previous set of rhetoric to shirk it.

How could he have entered Timur's deep palace alone? If he had entered with heavily armed guards, Shaharu would not have let them in for his own safety.

Therefore, Zhu Gaoxian is the most suitable choice if he does not go.

Zhang Fu and Saihazhi didn't care about whether their Royal Highness's refusal to enter the palace would make Shaharu unhappy, they had seen the strength of Timur's strongest warrior last night, but in terms of force value, there must be something admirable, but Da Ming has already passed the era of cold weapons.
