Chapter 15: The Sultan's Letter

The king really deserves to be a king - although this is a bit of a sycophancy, but Sinampe has to admit that Henry is worthy of his title of "knight king".

Not only was he proficient in mounted archery, but King Henry was also familiar with muskets.

I saw the king put the gun in his left hand, lifted the fork stand, and then blew the fire rope, blow the fire rope, and adjust the length of the fire rope...... Loading the fire rope, testing the fire rope, raising the gun to aim, designing...... Complex movements in one go. If you have to use any adjectives to describe the king's heroic appearance, the only words are flowing and superb.

Then the small target eighty meters away fell in response.

Sinampei wiped his cold sweat, he was not surprised by the king's ability at this moment - anyway, he had long been accustomed to the surprise that this middle-aged uncle brought him. What made him sweat profusely was the complexity of the arquebus...... The steps related to the arquebus alone can drive people crazy!

The king summoned the guards and set the target to a distance of one hundred and twenty meters, and this time he changed it to a large one. Because, by the way, he also had to test the rate of fire of this gun.

All the five bullets were fired in three and a half minutes. And the results are astounding, two nine rings, one eight rings, two seven rings -- this is not the sports ** on the earth, this is the arquebus of the Middle Ages! Not to mention anything else, the person who can so skillfully load the arquebus and raise the rate of fire to this level is already one in a million, and the average level in the army, that is, one shot a minute in the sky.

"Oh my God, is he a god?" Si Nanpei wiped his cold sweat.

"That's my father, who do you think he is?" Trissa snorted with a hint of pride.

Not only Sinampe, but almost all the onlookers around were cheering, whether it was Count Trian or Aaron, or the king's bodyguards.

The king himself was very calm about this, and when he finished shooting, he shook his head: "A gun, a good gun." But I'm afraid, it's not cheap, right?"

"Maybe it's a high cost, but I can give you a 50% discount, as long as it's ......" Aaron smiled and didn't continue, just dismissed all his attendants.

Seeing this, the king frowned slightly, and also dismissed his attendants, leaving only Count Trian and Theresa, as well as Sinampe: "If there is anything, you just say it directly." ”

"This is the great Sultan of the Selman Empire, and the handwritten letter from Kapdan Pasha to you. Aaron pulled out two gold-painted envelopes from his bosom.

The king opened them in front of several people. After a while, he sighed softly: "This makes it difficult for me to do." ”

"But I'm sure these weapons are exactly what Capet needs now, aren't they?" Aaron laughed.

Theresa stood behind the King, tiptoeing, as if trying to sneak a look.

The king turned, touched Theresa's head as if he were a mischievous little girl, and gave her the letter: "Take it and see it." ”

"...... "It's a no-brainer!" Theresa laughed twice, then looked down at it. The letters were written in the ancient Romanesque language, which was the religious language of the religion of the religion, so that Theresa could understand it, a language that was also in some form the universal language of the religion.

Sinan Pei also leaned over. It was Count Trian, who stood at a distance and jumped to his feet, curious about the contents of the letter, but he was too embarrassed to come up.

"Honorable Capetian ruler, God's spokesman in Cape...... Although the Selman Empire believed in paganism, they believed in monotheism like the Litian world, and both religions were born from the religions of the ancient Jacobs, so the God of both sides can also be regarded as one god...... (Note: The Crucifixion, the Crescent, and the Hexagram are collectively known as the Abrahamic Religions, and I think you should also know about the Sarmas...... )

"I've heard you've been in trouble lately...... Oh, it's troublesome!" Theresa pouted and handed the letter to Si Nanpei, "Si, why don't you tell me after reading it, what are you talking about?"

"......" After Si Nanpei finished reading it, he smiled bitterly, "Hmm...... To the effect that I'm going west to the Holy Romance, you don't want to send reinforcements to defend your faith, it doesn't make much sense. It's better to stay at home and fight the Galedonians, and if you agree to this condition, I can give you a lot of assistance to help you get rid of the Galedonians......"

At this time, the bearded man of Count Trian suddenly appeared in Sinampe's sight, startling him.

Count Trian pointed to the letter: "That Sultan just told us about their attempts, and he is not afraid of us......"

"I'm afraid there has already been a fight on the border. Sinampei shrugged, "They have long been afraid of revealing their intentions. ”

"What did that Capdan Pasha say in the letter?" asked Count Trian in a whisper.

In the letter, he said that a new Selman fleet had been assembled, and that they had the support of the Catholics on the southern continent, and that in the event of war, neither the fleets of the Republic of Jenova nor the Republic of Adria would be their enemies. He would let the loose merchants know what a real navy was. Sinampei was silent for a while and replied.

Count Trian raised his head, made up the map in his head, and shook his head slightly: "I still don't believe when those Tuks became naval experts. But they're rich......"

"Yes, there is money and there are good things. Theresa glanced at Aaron, "Naturally, there are people who are willing to serve them. ”

The king was silent for a long time in the face of the conditions of the Selman Empire, he did not want to agree to these conditions, but he also could not give up these high-quality weapons: "I'm sorry, Mr. Aaron, I can't agree to such conditions, we have always been a part of the world of the Litian Sect......"

"Open your eyes and tell nonsense!" Si Nanpei scolded in his heart, he knew very well that the king was afraid that the surrounding Litian Sect world would turn him. If you are not faithful to your own beliefs, you can, but you can't do it openly, in the face of the Pope's call for holy war, procrastinating, this is okay, but you can't not not respond, let alone make a deal with the infidels openly. If the king had made up his mind to receive the weapons, such a thing would not have been concealed in any way. At that time, if he was really excommunicated by His Majesty the Pope in a fit of anger, there would be no place to reason.

And, in order to ensure his own comfort, the pope may have to turn to the Caledonians or Boulognes, who still have the strength to fight against the pagans.

However, the master of the master, the person who may become his father-in-law in the future has difficulties, and Si Nanpei still has to stand up and help him make up his mind.

He still had some confidence in his dialectics. ps: Ask for recommendations and rewards according to the convention...... My cheek has been trained to sprinkle /(tot)/~~
