European plate armor has reached its peak among cold weapons.

However, Zhu Ying was not too worried. Although plate armor was powerful, it could not be equipped with a large number of troops. Generally, only a few ace elites had it.

In today's era, it is the era of firearms and cannons.

No matter how powerful the plate armor is, it cannot resist the power of artillery.

This thing is expensive to make, and generally thin soldiers cannot wear it, only strong men can.

After reading the information about Tubo, Zhu Ying didn't take it too seriously.

He believes that with Xu Huizu's ability, even if he can't win a big victory, he won't lose much.

Although the current Ming army may be somewhat lacking in movement speed, in terms of firearms and armaments, it is unmatched by any country in the world.

The Ming army is like a moving fortress. It only needs to press forward step by step to ensure victory.

What Zhu Ying didn't know was that after Timur's army entered Tubo, it wasn't just in Tubo.

They also had many small armies, which went directly to the Western Regions.

Compared with Tubo, the Western Regions are obviously richer. Although those small countries do not have a large family background, the total number is already very impressive.

After all, the Western Regions used to be the place of the Silk Road. Even though it is now in decline, a dead camel is bigger than a horse.

Huhu country.

This is one of the ancient countries in the Western Regions.

However, the real Huhu Kingdom had already been annexed by Cheshi Kingdom during the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The current Huhu Country is, to be precise, a newly established small country based on its cooperation with the Qunying Chamber of Commerce.

The king had no education, so he randomly chose a name that was literate.

The man said that there was an ancient country in the Western Regions called Huhu, and the place where the king was located was the Huhu ruins. He should be the descendants of Huhu, who could rebuild the Huhu country.

The establishment of a country requires a long history, no reputation, and it is not easy to mix in the Western Regions.

After hearing what the man said, the king simply said that he was a descendant of Huhu and reestablished the Huhu Kingdom.

Needless to say, this method does have some effect in the Western Region.

When others ask, it turns out that it has a history of thousands of years.

The Western Regions were influenced by the Central Plains dynasties, especially the Han Dynasty, so they are very close culturally.

With this name, he actually deceived a group of people into joining the Huhu Kingdom.

In history, the Huhu Country actually had a population of only a hundred households, which was no different from a village, and was even smaller than most villages.

But now Huhu Country has relatively more money due to its business relationship. It occupies an oasis for farming and has more than a thousand households.

At this moment, the king was discussing matters with several of his ministers.

"How come these damn Mongols have come to our Western Region? Aren't they in Tubo? I heard that several countries have been wiped out by them. Will they come to us?"

"They are too cruel. They will steal all the wealth and women, and kill all the men. We must find a way to protect our country."

The king said worriedly.

There are three people below, his three ministers, who are in charge of money, soldiers, and laws respectively.

Basically, there are only these three ministers. After all, the Huhu Kingdom only has a total of 6000 or [-] people.

"Don't worry, king. Our warriors can definitely stop these hateful Mongols. No matter how powerful their horses are, they can't cross our city wall. As long as we don't go out, they can't come in."

"The five hundred warriors under my command will use their bows and arrows to tell these Mongolians how powerful they are."

The person who spoke was the general in charge of the soldiers. He had a tall and thick appearance and a beard, and he looked really fierce.

But after saying this, the mustache next to him felt a little unhappy.

"Didn't you buy a hundred firecrackers some time ago? Why are you still using bows and arrows now?"

Mustache was in charge of money and food, and he had a hundred firecrackers, but he spent more than half of the treasury, which made him really sad.

The bearded man said indifferently: "The gunpowder was too expensive. Not only I, but also the brothers felt distressed when using it, so I kept it in the warehouse."

Mustache frowned and said: "I heard that you bought a few more female slaves. Did you secretly take out the firearms to exchange for money? Let me tell you, this is our most important firearm. If the Mongols really attack, but You have to rely on it to save your life.”

The bearded man suddenly became anxious, stood up, slapped the table and shouted: "How dare you doubt me!"

"Okay, okay, don't make a fuss. The Mongols are not here yet, so let's start the fuss ourselves."

"General, don't keep it. Let the soldiers train it first, so that they don't know how to use it later."

The king spoke to persuade.

The bearded man snorted and sat down.

Judging from the posture just now, it seems that he really wants to get started.

The mustache's eyes flashed with embarrassment, and his chest heaved a little, obviously angry.

He was very suspicious that Beard was selling firecrackers. After all, this was not the first time he had done something like this.

But relying on himself as the most powerful warrior in the Huhu Kingdom, he has always been unscrupulous, and even the king sometimes let him go.

In the past, the bearded beard did lead the soldiers, drove away many looting bandits, protected the Huhu country, and made great contributions.

The king ignored the two men. He knew that relying on these two people would have no effect.

He had seen the power of the Mongols with his own eyes when he was a wandering merchant. The low city walls could not give him any sense of security.

"Prophet, please guide the future of Huhu Country in the right direction."

The so-called Prophet is the priest of the Huhu Kingdom and is also responsible for the laws of the country, but he is already very old, his whole body is thin, and he looks like some gorgeous silk, as if he is wrapped in a skeleton, and he will die at any time look.

It was he who originally asked the king to name Huhu Country.

Hearing the king calling the prophet, the mustache and beard suddenly became quiet and turned their eyes away.

The voice of the Prophet gives people a strong sense of vicissitudes, a little hoarse.

"I have sacrificed to the gods, and the gods have given me a prophecy. Powerful devils will rush from afar with blood and fire, and the city walls will turn into dust under their wrath."

"Our soldiers were armed with bows and arrows instead of firecrackers. They had no ability to resist. Their heads were cut off and pinned to their waists by the ferocious enemy."

"The Huhu Kingdom, which has been inherited for thousands of years, once again ushered in destruction."

These words made several people present feel cold.

They believed in the words of the prophet, and the gods had made prophecies. Wouldn't it be true that the Huhu Kingdom was going to be destroyed?

Bearded Beard felt a little guilty when he heard that he was holding a bow and arrow instead of a firecracker, because he had indeed resold most of the firecrackers. There were only less than twenty firecrackers in the warehouse, and there was not much gunpowder left. It simply cannot support the consumption of a war.

Maybe after hearing a few noises, the gunpowder was finished.

The bearded man was already thinking about how to run away. He didn't want to lose his life here.

"Prophet, are we just waiting to die like this? Has God told us how to save us?" The king's voice was trembling.

He really believed in the words of the prophet, because basically everything the prophet said came true.The old man turned his head and looked at the past one by one, making his mustache and beard feel as if his thoughts were completely seen, as if nothing could be hidden under the eyes of the prophet.

"Since God is willing to make a prophecy, he will naturally explain the method of salvation." The prophet said slowly.

These words immediately invigorated people, especially the king, who seemed to be grasping a life-saving straw, his eyes full of longing, but he did not dare to rush.

The prophet was very satisfied with the king's respect, and then he said: "The gods predicted that if you want to save the Huhu country, as long as the king offers two daughters, then the Huhu country will be saved, and it will become stronger and stronger in the future. .”

"Become a truly great country in this Western Region."

When the king heard this, he felt a little flustered.

There are two things he is most proud of in his life.

The first is to found the Huhu Kingdom, fulfill his dream and become a great king.

The second is to marry a beautiful queen.

Of course, it was said that he was taking the slave, but it was actually a slave he bought, but it cost him money that was not well-off at the time.

The queen also gave birth to two beautiful twin daughters.

The two twin daughters have been very cute since they were young, and they have become even more charming as they grow up.

The king knew that their beauty was a scourge in the Western Regions, so he never let his two daughters leave the palace and restricted their lives there.

"Why, why did Huhu Country have to sacrifice my daughter to save it? Did they make some mistake?"

The king began to cry. He really loved his daughter.

When the old man heard this, he knew that the king would be wrong. He coughed twice and added: "The god's intention is to let the king's daughter marry the grandson of the heaven. I know that the king loves them very much, but the heaven The country is where they should go and enjoy."

The king, who was originally in tears, suddenly froze.

He thought he was going to kill his daughter, but ended up giving it to the grandson of the Ming Dynasty as a concubine?

This is simply great, right?

"Here, grandson of Ming Dynasty, will you agree?" the king asked a little unconfidently.

He knew that his daughter was very beautiful, but in the Ming Dynasty, there was no such thing as beautiful women.

For the Ming Dynasty, the Western Region was a wilderness.

My Huhu country cannot even compare to a village in the Ming Dynasty.

"The gods told me that the mysterious master of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce is now the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty. The great grandson of the great Ming Dynasty is the reincarnation of the gods, and your two daughters are also the reincarnations of the gods. They came to this world just to follow the people in the world. By the side of the Ming Dynasty’s great grandson.”

"King, please rest assured, just send your daughter over. The Ming Dynasty grandson will never refuse."

The old prophet explained slowly.

The king exclaimed: "The great grandson of the Ming Dynasty is actually the mysterious master behind the Qunying Chamber of Commerce?"

He once made a fortune by doing business with the Qunying Chamber of Commerce. Later, when he got rich, he founded the Huhu Kingdom.

The prophet nodded affirmatively.

The king looked surprised: "In this case, if my daughter marries the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty, the Huhu Kingdom will be protected by the Ming Dynasty. Those ferocious Mongols will no longer have the courage to rob our Huhu Kingdom."

Immediately, the king thought for a while and asked; "But how should we send my daughter to Daming, it is very far away, and I am worried that there may be some danger along the way."

The old prophet said: "We don't need to escort them. We just need to send the two princesses to the commander of Uzangdu in the Ming Dynasty. They will send soldiers to escort them. The king only needs to issue a document."

The king nodded happily: "Then leave everything to the prophet."

The old man nodded slightly.

Then the king and the two ministers left.

Seeing them leaving, the old man breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course he was not a prophet, nor did he have any divine prophecies.

He's just a liar.

Just a literate liar.

In his early years, he was cheating everywhere, spending money lavishly and having little savings, so he happened to meet this king.

Fortunately, the master who taught him the craft was from the Central Plains and also taught him how to read and write.

So he deceived the king, became a magic stick, and became the prophet of this Huhu country.

Some of the messy rules and laws were completely compiled by him.

The reason why he knew that there were a lot less fire guns in the warehouse was entirely due to his spy detection. After all, this small country is only so big, and many soldiers are willing to secretly be loyal to him.

In the entire Huhu Kingdom, no one knew Chinese characters, and he had been ordering the Ming Dynasty's capital newspapers from merchants.

From the imperial newspaper of the capital, he learned that the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty was the former owner of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, and that there were princesses from many countries as concubines.

This shows that the grandson of Ming Dynasty liked beauty very much.

The king's twin princesses made even him, an old man, excited. If it weren't for his poor health, he would have set his sights on those two princesses.

No matter how powerful the Mongols are, can they still be as powerful as the Ming Dynasty?

It had been his long-cherished decision to present the two princesses to the grandson of the Ming Dynasty.

In the past, there was no external crisis in the Huhu Kingdom, and the princess was too young to open her mouth. Now that the Mongols are raging, this is the best opportunity.

"Thanks to his good luck, he gave birth to two beautiful daughters. It seems that I can still retire here."

The old man chuckled, picked up the pen and paper, and started writing the document crookedly.

in the palace.

The queen asked the king: "Why do you want to marry my daughters to such a far away place? Once they leave, will I ever see them again in my life?"

The king really loved the queen and quickly explained: "This is a revelation from the gods. Only if his daughter marries the grandson of the Ming Dynasty can our Huhu country be in danger of being destroyed."

"Now many countries outside have been wiped out by the ferocious Mongols. Only with the protection of the Ming Dynasty can our Huhu country survive."

"The Ming Dynasty is the most prosperous and prosperous place in the world. Amyra and Ibaidi will definitely live the happiest life."

The king promised emphatically.

The queen was a little doubtful. She also heard that the Ming Dynasty in the distance was the most prosperous place.

Seeing the beautiful queen's hesitation, the king quickly reassured her.

The queen is indeed very beautiful. There is no trace of having given birth to twin girls on her figure. She looks as if she is in her early thirties as if she is in her 20s.

Maybe this has something to do with the fact that she gave birth to a daughter for the king at the age of 14.

My daughter is now 16 years old.

She also looked forward to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty. After a slight hesitation, the queen asked: "Then can I go with you?"
