Chapter 333 Hey, Long Live Daming!

"Is the Central Plains already so strong?"

At the port of the Gulf of Aden, a group of people stood on the shore facing the sea, quietly watching the two warships exuding a steely aura on the sea.

As the day of the Ming Dynasty military exhibition approached, more and more forces came to Aden. They wanted to see how powerful the legendary golden kingdom, the ancient eastern kingdom was.

Omurad, the current Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, also rushed over with a team.

The Ottoman Turks are descendants of the Turks. After the Turks were defeated by the Tang Dynasty, they moved westward to the Middle East and attached themselves to the Rum Sultanate established by the Seljuk Turks to guard the frontier against the Byzantine Empire.

After the Rum Sultanate was disintegrated by the Mongols, the Turks took the opportunity to rise and defeated the Byzantine Empire.Afterwards, he went all the way to conquer the north and south, conquered many tribes, until a man named Osman appeared.

Later, under the leadership of Osman, the Turks rose all the way. Before Osman died, they laid down a vast territory and established the Ottoman Empire.

Perhaps God has pity on such hard-working people. From the beginning of the Ottoman Empire to the generation of Omurad, the sultans were all wise and talented.

After years of development, Ottoman did not rise and then decline like some forces did. Instead, it advanced steadily and steadily, and gradually became a powerful empire in Europe and Central Asia.

"I see, please ask him to go to the living room first, and I will be there soon!"

The Mamluks are a moderate force, if you don’t investigate them or you are an expert in this field, no one has heard of this force.

What kind of trouble was caused by the bullshit nobles under his command? These words are nothing more than to fool the people at the bottom, but they are actually put on the table.

The dinner was just a simple 4 dishes and one soup, and no delicacies from mountains and seas were prepared.

"Clap clap clap..."

"Yes!"

"I hope that your country can work hand in hand with me, Ming Dynasty, to maintain the beautiful peace in this world."

The Suez Canal is the top priority in Ming's plan.

The Mamluk dynasty, located in the Nile region, is divided into the early and late periods. The early period was controlled by the descendants of the Turks, and the later period fell into the hands of the Caucasians.

In addition to the phalanx wearing armor and holding various weapons, there are also weapon racks on both sides of the passage.

A mighty empire has risen in the east again, and their warships are as big as palaces, and they can cross the sea of ​​death to reach Europe.

He thought so and did so.

Because Sa Xuer was by his side, the soldiers did not say where the telegram came from. After handing the telegram to Zheng He, they saluted and turned to leave.

Only the winners are remembered, and the losers are often forgotten.

As the red sun climbed out of the eastern sea, the world's first military exhibition was officially held at the wharf of the Gulf of Aden.

In the third year of Hongxi, the first day of April.

But those who know this know well that the Orientals will come back again.

When all the invited people entered the venue, there was a burst of drumming on the stage.

The two didn't talk about anything, just chatted with each other about the customs and customs of each country, and talked about some interesting historical facts, and the dinner ended.

"I, Ming, express sympathy for your country's experience of being oppressed by the Ottoman Empire, and I strongly condemn it."

When the orientals return next time, what they bring will no longer be peace and friendship, but a war of blood and fire.

"I believe that everyone present here, as well as the countries and forces behind you, share common ideas, common goals, and common aspirations, just like Daming."

Not long after Zheng He received the telegram, there was a knock on the door, followed by the voice of his bodyguard.

But after inquiring for a day, the people he asked were all clueless.

As for those wearing exquisite armor, they are all equipment inherited from various noble families.

The Mamluk dynasty didn't know much about the power of Ming Dynasty, and they hadn't even heard of it before.

On both sides of the gate of the venue, there are more than a dozen square formations composed of hundreds of people.

"report!"

"However, there are a small number of people. From the moment they were born, they had eyes that were hostile to the world. They waged wars and invaded the territory of other countries, killed civilians of other countries, robbed other countries' property, and destroyed the world. Destroyers are what everyone expects. peace and beauty."

In order to win the difficult war in the future, the European countries rarely put aside the grievances of each race, chose to stop the war, develop their own strength, and silently waited for a shocking war in the future.

"Cough cough!"

In order not to be surpassed by other countries, the Ottoman Empire has also kept silent in the past few years, and has worked hard to develop its own equipment, striving to achieve another earth-shattering glory like the ancestor Osman in the future war.

In this regard, the minister of state affairs of the Mamluk dynasty not only did not feel neglected, but felt very honored.

Some uninformed Arab natives almost drooled when they saw the armor worn by the majestic soldiers.

The Mamluk minister of state almost cried.

But when he came to Aden yesterday and saw two steel battleships floating on the sea with his own eyes, the minister of state changed his mind.

Zheng He, who was looking down at the plan of the military exhibition for a few days, heard the name of the Portuguese country, and a gleam of coldness flashed in his gentle eyes.

"Grandpa, why don't I send someone to drive away the people from the Portuguese country."

And at the end of the telegram, he told Zheng He that the head of the Atulu family would also come to the military exhibition in a few days.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

The Great Ming of the East has returned, and this time it not only brought a huge fleet, but also two steel battleships that only exist in mythology.

As the applause fell, Sa Xuer let out a dry cough, and continued in a loud voice: "This military exhibition is provided by the Ministry of Defense of the Ming Dynasty, the Artisan Battalion of the Ming Dynasty, the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ministry of the Navy of the Ming Dynasty!"

The so-called offensive words of the nobles are even more nonsense. Take some gifts to apologize, and throw out a scapegoat to think about it. Are these guys dreaming and foolish?

In the past, with a heart of friendship, he made friends from all over the world on behalf of Daming, thinking of spreading Daming's deeds to the whole world.

"Da Ming is merciful, but also just."

"Is Daming so powerful?"

"no need!"

There was a burst of applause, and everyone below looked at the nondescript Saxuer on the stage with strange expressions.

"My Ming Dynasty, a peace-loving country, has always maintained the policy of one world, one dream. For any force that dares to destroy world peace, my Ming Dynasty will strictly resist and impose some strong sanctions."

In the front there was the mighty Arab Empire, in the middle there were the Mongols who stretched across Eurasia, and in the back there was the Ottoman Empire that deterred the whole of Central Asia and Europe.

"Oh!"

At this time in the Western era, due to the backwardness of production technology, soldiers who can mix a set of leather armor on the battlefield are considered elite.

"Daming is a peace-loving country, and it is also a country that likes to make friends."

Among them, the representative of the Bedouin who nominally controls the Gulf of Aden saw the triumphant appearance of Sashur on the stage, his face was so dark that ink dripped out.

I don't know if it's because the common people have less exposure to gold transactions in history, or because of other reasons, the system doesn't accept gold.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Zheng He slapped the table and stood up. He wanted someone to drive the people from the Portuguese country back, but he swallowed the words again.

"Ha ha…"

During the weapon auction, as long as the Aturu family bids, no matter how high the price is, just trade on the surface and hand over the weapon to them secretly, without charging money.

These people lined up neatly, wearing all kinds of armor.

Thinking of the information collected by the Minister of Intelligence, Omura turned his head and looked at the two ruins on the pier that have not yet been repaired.

Hearing Zheng He repeat the name of the Portuguese country again, Sa Xuer nodded quickly, flipped through the notebook in her hand and said with a smile: "They came to apologize, saying that what happened a few years ago was a misunderstanding, and it was the One of their nobles, they are deeply sorry for this and are willing to offer gifts as compensation."

Under his leadership, the Ottoman Empire steadily annexed the surrounding forces, strengthened itself bit by bit, and slowly moved towards the grand goal in Omurad's heart.

"I want these two battleships, no matter what the price is, I will get them."

Some forces and countries mainly in the plain area, the moment they saw the chariot, they rushed over directly, holding on to the chariot no matter what, wishing they could drive away now.

At first the Bengal Sultanate, then Ryazan, and not long ago Luzon.

The Mamluk dynasty, which was confronting each other with the Ottoman Empire, had the advantage of terrain. Otherwise, it would have been replaced by favorable terrain, and Ottoman's tyranny would have swallowed it to the bone.

People in the Mamluk dynasty thought that something that could even attract Ottomans was definitely a good thing.

In the telegram, Zhu Zhangui did not mention that he got a sum of gold.

This is a telegram from Zhu Zhangui, which briefly described the matter of subduing the Atulu family.

Disguised as a guard, Omurad, who followed the minister of state to visit various armored cold weapons, asked this question again.

This is Zheng He. If it was Zhu Zhangui who handled the matter, and those representatives of the grape country could walk out of Aden standing, then Zhu Zhangui would change his name to Zhu Dachang.

But the only thing that makes people criticize is that the prince seems to have no resistance to women's sex.

And just when the Minister of State Affairs went back in a lonely state, waiting for the two-day fair to officially start, a guest came outside his door, and the other party told him that the famous Lord Zhenhai wanted to invite him to dinner.

However, the behavior of the European party, especially the Portuguese country, completely wiped out his little favor for these white pigs.

There is really nothing to say about the ability of my own prince and the speed at which he can make money.

"Facing my friend Da Ming is as warm as spring, and facing these devil-like guys, Da Ming will let him know what the cold of winter is."

"By Allah, what a perfect armor!"

Mace, Fang Tian's painted halberd, Qinglong Yanyue knife, knight's spear...

They arrived yesterday, a day before the Ottomans.

"Yes!"

That night, Zheng He hosted another banquet in honor of Muke, the patriarch of the Atulu family, and invited the Mamluk ministers of state affairs to attend.

In the former Governor's Mansion at the Gulf of Aden Wharf, Sa Xuer held a list with a humble face, and reported to Zheng He the forces from all over the place.

Daming kept this aspect too strict. Apart from Ming people, even Sa Xuer, who presided over the preparation of the trade fair, didn't know much about it.

"Why did you suddenly change?"

It's not that these people are ignorant, but that the West in this period is really not like the movies of later generations, where all kinds of exquisite armor are everywhere.

Cannons, muskets, gunpowder manufacturing, and warships like palaces.

Zhu Zhangui intends to keep this gold for himself as a trump card in the future, even if he doesn't need it, it's good to leave it to his descendants.

He knew that their race originated from the East, and in the inheritance documents of the race, the record of returning to the East for revenge and blood hatred was mentioned more than once.

Thinking about it, Zheng He suddenly thought of those foreign beauties in the Prince's Mansion, and his expression suddenly became weird.

"You go out first, settle down the envoys of various countries, and don't embarrass me, Ming."

The reason why they came here to participate in the exhibition this time was not because they were interested in those so-called powerful weapons, but because they heard that people from the Ottoman Empire were coming, so they came here.

He still remembers what Zhu Zhangui said to him.

As the leader of this project, Zheng He felt that he should first get in touch with the people of the Mamluk dynasty to promote the friendship between the two sides, so that he would not be embarrassed when he asked for things in the future.

A pair of long weapons, matched with the armor on the soldiers, looks so mighty and domineering.

He used methods such as threats and bribes to steal, and obtained the technology that various countries obtained from Daming.

Walking further back, there are cavalrymen in heavy armor and heavy weapons in their hands, and ranged soldiers in all kinds of light armor and bows and crossbows in their hands.

In the past few years, he has managed to bring back Lao Zhu and the old man's corrupt financial system. Zhu Zhangui doesn't want years of hard work to go to waste, so these gold are the best choice.Or continue to sleep in the warehouse.

Sa Xuer, who had changed into an official robe of the Ming Dynasty, stood on the stage with a loudspeaker in her hand, and spoke the opening speech.

Although he believed in Zheng He, Zhu Zhangui felt that it would be better to conceal the fact that he had so much money when he thought of this scammer and went back to Daming with him back then.

Looking at these forces supported by the prince, it seems that none of them have anything to do with women.

Daming, good man!

The representatives of various countries who got up early, wearing the most solemn clothes, holding the invitation letter, and under the envious eyes of other small forces who did not get the invitation letter, walked into the military exhibition hall with their heads high.

Just when Omurad looked at the powerful army's ambitions and thought that with his current strength, he could challenge the whole world, a big slap shot came over fiercely.

After the letter was sent out, the Minister of State Affairs has not been idle all day, and has been collecting information about Daming. What will appear at the Inquirer Fair?
For example, will Daming sell powerful weapons or technology?If you sell things, are the two ironclad warships among them?Questions like whether the other artillery battleship Daming can be sold or not.

He is here on behalf of Ming Dynasty. If the Portuguese country is driven back at this time, it will easily affect other countries' impression of Ming Dynasty.

As soon as they entered the venue, the bodies of representatives of various countries and forces trembled violently.

There are fish scale armor, light armor, stepper armor, Shanwen armor, etc...

Of course, this time it is not four dishes and one soup, but a very hearty roasted camel.

In just this opening scene, all kinds of cold weapons and all kinds of mighty and domineering armored chariots dazzled the representatives of various countries and forces.

Just before leaving, Zheng He said a few words to Qi.

In addition to the armor on these soldiers, there are also various weapons that are illuminated by the sun and exude a cold light.

However, just when he was full of confidence and thought that he would become the greatest emperor in the world, a bad news reached his ears.

In the 14th century, the power reached its peak, and it has been blocking the striding Ottoman Empire. It was not annexed by the Ottoman Empire until the mid-to-late 15th century.

As soon as Zheng He finished speaking, a communications soldier walked in and handed Zheng He a telegram.

If it weren't for the large number of people now, and they had to take into account the face of their own forces, these guys would probably rush straight up, strip off the soldiers' armor and put them on themselves.

Everyone who heard the sound of the drum withdrew their eyes that wished to be inlaid on the armor, and looked towards the top of the stage.

At this time, the Mamluk dynasty has begun to slowly decline due to the domestic situation, natural disasters and the persecution of the Ottoman Empire.

Zheng He's angry look made Sa Xu'er feel a little nervous.

Behind the ranged soldiers is a very large stage, with chariots placed under the stage.

Aumurad, who was wearing an ordinary guard uniform, looked at the two steel warships standing quietly on the distant sea, and clenched his eyes tightly with his fists, emitting a fiery and greedy light.

For ordinary soldiers, not to mention armor and equipment, it would be nice to have an ax in their hands as an enemy-killing equipment.

The reason why Zhu Zhangui chose to keep this batch of gold was actually a helpless move.

Their weapons roar like Thor, and every roar carries countless lives.

Money that cannot be used in supermarkets is like a pile of rocks to Zhu Zhangui.

"My lord, the people who should come are almost here. Not only the Ottoman Empire has also sent people, but the white pigs have also sent some people, including those from the Portuguese country."

"Guests and gentlemen, welcome to the Daming Overseas Fair. I am the explainer, Sa Xuer, Governor of Daming Aden."

The battleship was all made of steel, and the artillery on the battleship was as thick as a century-old tree.

"My lord, the representative of the Mamluk dynasty is here!"

There was another burst of applause from below, but the corners of most people's mouths twitched subconsciously.

Yesterday he wrote a letter to the king overnight, clearly describing what he saw and heard.

Looking at the roasted camel simmering on the fire, the Minister of State Affairs thought about the dry four dishes and one soup a few days ago, and suddenly felt sour in his heart.

Perhaps it is accurate to say that in the entire Europe and Central Asia region, except for the Timurid Empire at its peak, there is no force that can break the wrist with Ottoman, not even the Golden Horde.

Why does this sound so strange?Why do you feel so shameless after hearing this?
"There is an old saying in the Ming Dynasty that people are inherently good at the beginning of their lives. It means that people are kind from the moment they are born, and they have no intention of hurting others, let alone annexing others."

Hmph, they are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are you playing with me?

Putao did this because she saw how powerful Daming was and chose to give up because she was afraid of losing to him.

The Mamluk Dynasty is a not very well-known force in history.

Out of the idea that what the enemy values ​​is a good thing, they rushed over to have a look.

"Apologize, if the apology is going to be useful, then why do you need a knife?"

However, this pile of stones can still be used as money, and when they cannot be used in supermarkets, Zhu Zhangui directly takes them out and puts them in the market, which will have a great impact on Ming's economic system, and may even cause the collapse of the entire financial institution .

The roar of the artillery on the battleship when it fires is like the wrath of the thunder god. Any place that is pointed by the artillery will be turned into smoke and dust by a thunder strike.

Zheng He waved his hand, "Don't worry about them, I have my own arrangements."

Zhu Zhangui: The only value of these white-skinned pigs in the West is to mine and grow potatoes for us.

Huanshou Dao, Yan Ling Dao, Qinglong Sword, and the simple and domineering machete, all kinds of short weapons, the number is as high as dozens.

On the first day of the fair, people from the Aturu family finally rushed over.

Others are preparing, and Omurad is naturally not far behind.

One after another warships went into the sea, one after another artillery was pushed out of the factory, and one after another muskets were handed over to the soldiers.

So those who advocate Western bananas, your so-called civilized people, are just a group of degenerated savages in front of our ancestors.

"Da Ming produced these weapons not to invade anyone, nor to hurt anyone. It was to protect its own people from being hurt by these demons, and to help those who are being hurt by demons, or who are about to be hurt by demons."

Zheng He sneered, and threw the brush in his hand to the ground.

After reading the telegram, Zheng He frowned slightly, thinking about what happened that made the prince suddenly change his mind and entrust such an important task to a family that had just joined him.

This military exhibition is an opportunity for the rise of the Mamluk dynasty. I hope the king will pay attention to this exhibition and seize this opportunity to make the Mamluks take off again.

"Could it be a woman again!"

"In Daming's thinking, all of us live in this world, we are not enemies competing with each other, but partners who make progress together."

"Grape country!"

As one of the best Ottoman monarchs, Omurad is very clear about the history of his family.

The representative is the Minister of State Affairs of the Mamluk Dynasty. His purpose of coming this time is simply to see if he can buy something and put it aside first, and try to give the enemy's business to Huo Huo.

After Sa Xuer left, Zheng He unfolded the telegram and began to observe carefully.

These chariots are not only the chariots owned by Daming now, even the chariots from the Spring and Autumn Period were displayed by Zheng He. I really don’t know where Zheng He got these old antiques. I hope these things can be sold.

In the letter, he explained emphatically that the strength of Daming was unimaginable by human beings, and the steel warship was like a creation of a god.

Zheng He, who thought it was such a possibility, shook his head helplessly, folded up the telegrams, and put them into a box next to him that was locked with a lock.

"Oh, this prince!"

The expressions of these representatives are completely like country bumpkins who want to see this and want to see that.

When he was reading ethnic histories since he was a child, Omurad set a grand goal in his heart, that is to conquer Central Asia, Europe, the East, and dominate the entire world.

In addition, there are knight armor worn by Western knights, and very Westernized plate armor.

Received this invitation, the Minister of State Affairs jumped three feet high happily, then took a shower happily, and arrived at the Governor's Mansion in a hurry, preparing to attend the dinner party invited by Zheng He.

Although the huge fleet behind was carelessly attacked by the Portuguese country.

Without the help of external forces, I believe it will not be long before this country will become a stepping stone of the Ottoman Empire, buried in the dust of history.

"Clap clap clap..."

There was another round of applause.

Perhaps the speech was too excited. At the end of the speech, Saxuer stretched out her palms and raised them at 90 degrees and shouted loudly.

"Thanks to the kind Daming, thanks to the righteous Daming, hey, long live Daming!"
