Without the threat of the Ottoman navy, Wang Baobao personally led more than 10,000 Mongol troops across the strait and set foot on Ottoman land.

Sultan Murad I immediately marched from Bursa with an army of 100,000 men to stop the Mongols.

Behind Murad I, a follow-up army of nearly 100,000 men was gathered.

All the Ottomans were convinced that it was impossible for the Mongols to defeat their great Sultan Murad I on land.

Anatolia, the city of Shkodar calendar.

More than 10,000 soldiers have surrounded this small coastal city.

Wang Baobao rode a horse and stood on a high hillside, overlooking the city not far away.

The city was very small, and although it was built relatively strongly, it could not hold back the artillery of the Mongol army.

After all, the walls of Shkadri were very high and had a great weight, and if you bombarded the lower part of the wall with artillery, the walls would collapse due to their own weight.

However, Wang Baobao only ordered the siege of the city walls and did not intend to attack the city.

"Taishi, the horse is returned, the Ottoman barbarian army has been dispatched, and it is still about two hundred miles away from us at this time!"

The general Haohai who rode a black horse came to the front to report.

The Warat cavalry in the Mengyuan army can be described as the ceiling of light cavalry combat power, and the local Ottoman cavalry is not an opponent at all.

The nearby area of more than 100 miles is already full of the horses of the Warat cavalry.

"Okay, I'm not afraid of them coming, I'm afraid they won't come!"

When Wang Baobao heard the news, he showed a relaxed expression.

The land of the Ottomans was spread over the valleys and hills, and if they rushed to attack deeply, they were extremely vulnerable to ambushes.

Moreover, the current Mengyuan army is very dependent on the artillery of the accompanying army, and is unwilling to go to those rugged mountain roads.

Wang Baobao's plan is to come to a siege point to send reinforcements.

After receiving the news of the Ottoman advance, Wang Baobao left only a small number of soldiers and horses to monitor the city of Shkodari, and led the main force to intercept the Ottoman army.

The Ottoman cavalry soon encountered the Mongol Varat cavalry.

As the elite light cavalry of both sides, the process of fighting is very different.

The Warat cavalry not only retained the tactics of the traditional Mongol cavalry, but was also generally armed with a copycat version of the Ming musket, which was not too easy to deal with the Ottoman light cavalry.

After several engagements, the Ottoman light cavalry lost several hundred men, while the Mongol Warat cavalry lost only a dozen men.

Such a shameful record made Sultan Murad I furious.

He personally led 20,000 Ottoman cavalry in pursuit of the Mongol cavalry, trying to save the face he had lost.

However, the cunning Varat cavalry, led by Haohai, did not give the Ottomans a chance to fight at all.

After a few tugging, the anger of the Ottomans was completely ignited.

"Allah is above!"

"Under the witness of Allah, I will kill all these cunning Mongols!"

Sultan Murad I ordered the Ottoman army to advance at full speed.

On a plain, the Mengyuan army led by Wang Baobao was ready to attack.

The Mengyuan army carried a large number of spears to resist the horses, and soon set up a solid defensive position on the ground.

In the face of the fierce Ottoman army, Wang Baobao led the Mengyuan army to adopt a strategy of deception.

Soon after the battle between the two sides, the Warat cavalry led by Haohai put on an appearance of being invincible, and soon 'broke and fled' from the battlefield to the left and right.

When Sultan Murad I saw this, he was immediately overjoyed.

Determined to make these cunning Mongols pay, they sent elite cavalry in pursuit.

The Mengyuan infantry led by Wang Baobao steadily retreated and retreated to the defensive positions that had been prepared long ago.

Murad I, with tens of thousands of Ottoman troops, pursued behind Wang Baobao.

When Sultan Murad I led tens of thousands of Ottoman troops to follow, he immediately smiled when he found that the Mongol army had stopped fleeing and began to try to fight back.

"These stupid Mongols, with such a small number of people, dare to resist my army?!"

Murad I immediately ordered the formation to be set up, ready to completely defeat these Mongols who did not know the height of the sky.

The Mengyuan army led by Wang Baobao was only four or five thousand people, but in the face of more than 20,000 Ottoman troops, they did not panic at all, but calmly began to prepare for battle.

Seeing this, Murad I, the commander of the Ottoman army, immediately laughed angrily, "These Mongols don't know how powerful our Muslim warriors are, I must skin them alive with my own hands!" ”

As he spoke, he immediately ordered the army to prepare for an all-out attack.

Unfortunately, Murad I overlooked an important point, which was that the Mongols were perfectly defended, and they were not so easy to deal with.

When the Ottoman army began to attack, the Mongol Yuan army was ready to meet the enemy, and they had already made fortifications and preparations, and launched a counterattack at the first time.

The 500 Mengyuan troops in the fortress, with the cooperation of six 12-type guns, launched a strong defense.

Boom Boom!

With the bombardment of the artillery of the Mengyuan army, the Ottoman army that rushed forward immediately killed and wounded hundreds of people!

Although the Menghu warriors of Murad I were brave and good at fighting, they were difficult to resist in the face of artillery counterattacks.

Murad I was stunned, and he had no idea that this would happen.

The Ottomans of these Anatolian regions were very backward in terms of technology.

They had seen gunpowder weapons, but they had never seen them so powerful.

Now the artillery of the Mengyuan army is so powerful that all the Ottomans are overwhelmed, and even the pace of the attack has stopped.

"Damn, hurry up and keep attacking, they only have a few artillery pieces and can't stop us at all." Murad I roared, and immediately caused the Ottomans to charge forward again.

But the Meng Yuan army was still not afraid and still counterattacked with artillery!

The Ottomans were again locked in a bitter battle, and people kept falling, but Murad I was determined and continued to send his soldiers forward to attack.

In the face of the Ottomans' crowd tactics, Wang Baobao immediately ordered the artillery to be replaced with scattered shells for close-range combat!

Boom Boom!

Thousands of scattered bullets were like a rain of death iron, instantly stirring up a blood mist among the Ottoman soldiers!

"Ahh Screams came and went, and under this dense artillery fire, even the Ottoman soldiers could not bear it, and fell in pools of blood one by one.

Seeing this, Murad I's eyes immediately widened, he didn't expect the firepower of the Mengyuan army's artillery to be so strong!

"Sultan, what do we do now?" The subordinate asked nervously.

Murad I was silent, he really couldn't imagine that the Mongols had so many firearms and equipment.

"Rush again!"

Murad I gritted his teeth and gave the order to continue the offensive

It's a pity that Murad I just gave the order, and the Mengyuan army launched a fierce artillery bombardment again!

"Ahh

It's another group of people turning on their backs!

Murad I took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Keep attacking, we don't believe it, they can cripple everyone!" ”

It's a pity that at such a close distance, the power of the Mengyuan army's firearms quickly crushed the attacking Ottoman army!

"How so!" Murad I was stunned.

He didn't expect that his army would be defeated in a short period of time!

Unrelenting, Murad I once again led his men on the offensive.

Unfortunately, the result is still the same as before.

In close combat, the Ottomans could not withstand the bombardment of the Mengyuan artillery at all, and hundreds of people fell to the ground, and many more were killed on the spot!

The Ottomans lost this battle!

"Sultan, what are we going to do now?" One of the men asked.

"Damn, what else can I do, withdraw! Evacuate! Murad I scolded angrily and wanted to turn and run away.

At this moment, Murad I suddenly heard a shout of killing behind him, and then saw that on their left and right sides, many Mengyuan cavalry were killed at the same time.

"Not good!"

Murad I's face changed drastically, and he quickly turned his head to look behind.

Thousands of Mengyuan cavalry, holding high the banner of a black cross with a white background and black edges, came out and killed.

Murad I panicked, he did not expect that the cavalry of the Mongols would go and return!

Obviously, this is a ploy of the Mongols!

Daming, Hongwu eight years.

Suzhou.

As the richest city in the south of the Yangtze River, Suzhou has doubled in size in the past two years.

The original city is no longer enough.

In this case, Zhu Han took the initiative to open a city pattern without walls for Suzhou.

You must know that only Ying Tianfu has a city layout located outside the city walls in the whole world.

Now Suzhou also has such a layout, which is equivalent to highlighting the unique status of Suzhou.

The common people and businessmen of Suzhou are quite satisfied with this status.

Zhu Han has also become the new God of Wealth in Suzhou.

A garden manor on the outskirts of Suzhou.

The whole garden is exquisitely chic, showing the noble taste of the garden owner everywhere.

Accompanied by a group of thin beauties around the fat swallow, Zhu Han took a comfortable walk in the garden.

This manor is officially the property of Shen Wansan, a big businessman in Suzhou.

As a wealthy businessman who became famous all over the world in the Yuan Dynasty, the history of Shen Wansan's family was not like in the playbook, relying on what to make friends with Zhu Yuanzhang.

The Shen Wansan family already has strong strength, and the entire Suzhou industry, which is small, has the shadow of Shen Wansan.

For such a huge business family, Zhu Han had long persuaded his elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang to envelop him, providing a lot of financial resources for the rise of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, every time Zhu Han comes to Suzhou, he basically stays at Shen Wansan's house.

"Your Highness, there is just a group of Slavic dancers transported by Persian merchants in the courtyard, and they are the best at Hu Xuan Dance, do you want to watch it?" A fat man who followed behind Zhu Han asked with a smile.

The flattery on his face that couldn't be concealed, although it was a little greasy, it didn't make Zhu Han feel uncomfortable.

This person is Shen Wansan's eldest son Shen Jin, and he is also the helmsman of the Shen Wansan family in Suzhou today.

As for the head of the family, Shen Wansan, he was not in Suzhou at this time.

The Ming Dynasty acquired a new colony in Tianzhu, solving the problem of piracy and supply points on the way.

Shen Wansan knew that this was a huge business opportunity, so he formed the Shen family's merchant fleet and went to Tianzhu to inspect it in person.

"Don't look at it, it's a Slavic girl every day, and this king is tired of it!" Zhu Han pouted and said.

In his previous life, in modern times, Zhu Han coveted those blonde and blue-eyed Slavic Yanmars, and now there are seventy or eighty Slavic female slaves in the British palace alone, and there is no novelty for a long time.

What's more, the Slavic slave girls transported by Persian merchants have always been selected by Zhu Han personally, and the rest will be sold and auctioned to the hands of wealthy merchants or nobles such as the Shen family.

The Slavic female slaves of the Shen Jin family, the quality of which was picked by Zhu Han was leftover, so naturally she was not interested.

"Okay, you don't have to bother, I came to Suzhou this time, not for this beauty, but to find you for something serious!" Zhu Han came to the pavilion in the garden, sat down and said slowly.

As soon as he heard this, Shen Jin immediately came to his senses.

Zhu Han is the God of Wealth that the entire Ming businessmen unanimously recognize!

No matter what kind of business, as long as there is King Zhu Han's move, it can definitely become the most profitable business.

Whether it was the sale of tea and horses to Uszang in the northwest, or the purchase of slave girls from Goryeo Japan, they all created a large number of wealthy people.

"Thank you, Your Highness, villain!" Shen Jin immediately knelt on the ground and thanked him.

Zhu Han immediately wondered, "What are you doing here, what are you thanking me?" ”

"With His Royal Highness speaking, he must be bringing the villain to make a fortune!" Shen Jin continued with a flattering face.

Zhu Han waved his hand and asked Shen Jin to get up and reply, "Your Shen family is so rich, it's okay to lie down and make money." ”

Shen Jin laughed dryly twice, and didn't dare to accompany Zhu Han twice.

Every time he faced the British King Zhu Han, Shen Jin was really scared in his heart.

Especially recently, several Confucian families in Jiangnan that have been inherited for hundreds of years have all been questioned by the imperial court, and all of them have been exiled to the wild Yinzhou to gnaw on the bark.

This frightened Shen Jin and the others.

Those Confucian scholars wanted connections, fame, and good land, but they were easily exiled by Emperor Hongwu and King Ying.

Compared with these Confucian families, businessmen like the Shen family have nothing but money.

Therefore, Shen Jin was naturally afraid of offending His Royal Highness and letting himself be exiled from his home.

"This king is not joking, but he knows that your Shen family is rich, and everyone wants to pull you together to do a new business with this king!" Zhu Han said.

"What business does Your Highness plan to do, the villain will definitely obey his orders with all his might!" Shen Jin hurriedly said.

In the name of doing business, the imperial court has long been accustomed to exploiting and oppressing businessmen, and Shen Jin is not the kind of fool who wants money and does not want to die.

"Doing business together, not going into battle, you don't need to obey orders, but let's discuss together." Zhu Han said with a smile.

I am now in a high position, and I often say a casual word, which is enough to have a huge impact.

Regarding Shen Jin's cautious attitude in front of him, Zhu Han was not surprised.

"What business does Your Highness plan to do?" Shen Jin hurriedly asked.

Zhu Han smiled, waved his hand to make all the slaves and maids retreat, and then said to Shen Jin; "This king and His Majesty have asked to open a bank!"

"Banks? His Royal Highness plans to open a silver building? Shen Jin immediately thought of the silver building where gold and silver utensils were made.
