I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 446 The interference of the Timur Empire!An army of millions!

Zhai Shan's remarks opened up a new way of thinking to the ministers Baiguan and Zhu Yunzhen present.

They would still be angry if the Delhi Sultanate was so stupid and ignorant.

He had to go to war with the Delhi Sultanate.

Doesn't this mean that they are too stingy?Since they are stupid, ignorant, backward, and stuck in their ways, let them deceive themselves!
I, the Ming Dynasty, am self-reliant!

Anyway, the Delhi Sultanate has agreed to the request to open the treaty port.

In the future, Ming Dynasty will be able to earn enough benefits from the Delhi Sultanate!Let Ming Dynasty gradually become stronger!
And he, the Delhi Sultanate, was ignorant.

It will only make you fall further and further behind and gradually lead to destruction!

As such.

The grades and levels of the Ming Dynasty and the Delhi Sultanate were naturally different at once!
Even if future generations cannot blame him for a long time!
"Hahaha! Zhai Shan, you are right!"

Zhu Yunzhen also laughed.

Said: "If I still argue with such an ignorant person, wouldn't I become a chicken with a small belly?"

"Be more tolerant!"

"Just let him be proud for a while, so what? Anyway, I, Ming Dynasty, will not lose money no matter what!"

"Making a fortune in silence will not arouse jealousy!"

"Let this Sultan be proud! The silver I, Ming, earn every year are all real money!"

As long as the market in Tianzhu is opened.

That’s enough to earn at least tens of millions of taels of silver a year!Zhu Yunxuan can form a larger maritime caravan and the Ming Dynasty navy!

Compared to the Delhi Sultanate, which had made no progress and was even regressing.

Doesn't this instantly reflect Zhu Yunzhen's pattern and measurement?If future generations read this period of history, they will only laugh at him as Sikandar Lodi, who has no self-awareness!

"it is good!"

"Send a caravan immediately to Tianzhu to purchase spices and other required raw materials!"

"Then dump all the industrial products of my Ming Dynasty!"

"This is a fertile, unexplored market! It must contain great benefits! It can definitely help our Ming Dynasty develop!"

Zhu Yunzhen no longer paid attention to the credentials sent by the Sultan of the Delhi Sultanate.

Just treat it like a pile of waste paper!
No more anger can be stirred up in Zhu Yunzhen's heart!

"Yes!"

Zhai Shan was immediately overjoyed, and His Highness accepted his opinion.

He helped Ming Dynasty solve another big problem. After all, it would be a huge loss to start a war with the Delhi Sultanate thousands of miles away.

It’s not that Ming can’t afford the money.

But in Zhai Shan's opinion, there is no need to work hard for a Sultan who doesn't know the heights of the sky.

But the ministers and officials below.

But everyone had different expressions. Xia Yuanji, who was in charge of the household department, breathed a sigh of relief.

For him, it is of course best for Ming Dynasty not to go to war, otherwise he, the Minister of Household Affairs, will be in trouble again. After all, he is the one in charge of Ming Dynasty's money bag!

He is also the one who wants to pay!

But other civil servants and military generals were still not convinced.

Although the reason is such a reason.

But not everyone can swallow this breath!Even the civil servants are proud of the strength of the Ming Dynasty. Now that they are humiliated by the Delhi Sultanate, they are naturally extremely angry!
And a group of military attachés were thinking about how to go to the Delhi Sultanate to kill everyone!
Naturally, I don’t want to give up just like that!

But they had to admire that Zhu Yunzhen's choice was the most correct, and His Highness Taisun could bear this tone.

This is the true appearance of a wise king!
"His Highness Shengming!"

"My Ming Dynasty is the kingdom of heaven. These small countries don't know the heavens and their words will naturally make people laugh."

"No need to argue with them!"

Arguing with stupid people will only lower your IQ!
By the time they found out that Ming Dynasty had earned hundreds of millions of silver from Tianzhu, they regretted that it was already too late!

However...the tree is about to stop, but the wind is not flat!

overseas.

Delhi Sultanate.

The Sultan of the country, Shikandar Lodi, was receiving a distinguished guest from the Timurid Empire.

“I wonder what your envoy’s purpose is for coming here?”

Sikandar Lodi smiled in a flattering manner, despite his particularly strong character in his letter of credence to the Ming Dynasty.

But for the Timurid Empire just beside the Delhi Sultanate.

But he is very weak, and can even be said to be flattering!
Because the current Timur Empire is the real overlord of Central Asia!Right next to their Delhi Sultanate!
Over the years, the ambitions of Timur's empire have continued to grow!

"I heard that the Sultan wanted to do business with the Ming Dynasty?"

"Is there more than just this?"

asked the emissary from Timurid's empire.

Shikandar Lodi smiled awkwardly and explained sheepishly: "The Ming Dynasty kept begging this Sultan to do business with our country."

"This sultan could not bear to beg for help, and he was deeply interested in the dialect."

"That's why I agreed to do business with the other party."

"What? How did this matter spread to the Timur Empire?"

The messenger from the Timur Empire paused.

Said: "I'm telling you the truth."

"Over the years, our Timur Empire has been pretending to have good relations with the Ming Dynasty, but in fact it is to understand the other party's military strength!"

"Get the other person's information!"

"Soon, I, the Timur Empire, will detain the Ming Dynasty's envoys and declare war on the Ming Dynasty!"

"Our Timur Empire will have millions of elite soldiers!"

"Conquer the Ming Dynasty!"

At this time, the Timur Empire was very ambitious. In the original historical trajectory, it not only declared war on the Ming Dynasty, but also declared war on the Ottoman Empire.

In the future, an army of millions will be mobilized!
According to historical records, there were a full 130 million troops!Even the actual combatable army is between 70 and 100 million!

After Zhu Di Fengtian was in trouble, he took advantage of the weak national power of the Ming Dynasty to attack the Ming Dynasty!

But in the end, Timur died of an illness during the attack, thus ending his life as a fighting madman.

After all, the Timur Empire at this time had just been established!

Not only did he conquer the Chagatai Khanate, but he actually controlled the Delhi Sultanate. In addition, he conquered the Ottomans in the north and the Mamluk Dynasty of Egypt in the south!
In Central Asia and the Middle East, it can be said to be invincible!
The Timur Empire is definitely the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty!It was only because Timur died on the road that a war with the Ming Dynasty was avoided!
You know, when Timur sent troops to the Ming Dynasty, it was not long after the Fengtian Jingnan!
Zhu Di had just ascended the throne!

It was when Ming Dynasty was at its weakest!
If it fights the Timur Empire and the Tatars at the same time, I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty will be in an unexpected danger!Although it is absolutely impossible for the other party to defeat Daming.

But after this battle, the Ming Dynasty will definitely be severely damaged, and the Yongle Dynasty will not be able to achieve such glory!

But now time has moved forward more than ten years.

It was when the Timur Empire was strong and its founding monarch Timur was still alive.

And Ming Dynasty is also actively seeking to expand externally.

Set your sights on the markets of the Delhi Sultanate.

This time, we are really going to collide with Daming head-on!

The two most powerful empires on the Asian continent are really at odds!
"what?!"

"Your country actually wants to go to war with the Ming Dynasty?!"

The Sultan of Delhi Sultanate was extremely shocked!

This was really news that was so shocking that he couldn't calm down!After all, one side is the Timurid Empire, which was so powerful that the Delhi Sultanate could only surrender, and the other side is the distant Eastern Empire!

Although he is very proud.

But he also knows that Ming Dynasty is definitely not weak!

"That's right!"

"Timur Khan has long been interested in restoring the glory of the steppe empire and reuniting the divided steppe empire!"

"And back then, the grassland was so powerful precisely because it conquered that distant Eastern Empire!"

"So Timur Khan also wants to restore the glory of his ancestors! Incorporate that eastern empire into the territory of my Timur Empire! Restore the glory of the grassland!"

The messenger from the Timur Empire said excitedly.

But what he didn't know was... Timur, the founder of the Timur Empire, did not actually have grassland blood.

He is actually a Turk.

The ancestry of the prairie people is actually claimed by the other party.

"So, your Delhi Sultanate must immediately stop trading with the Ming Dynasty!"

"And we will send an army of [-] to march towards the Ming Dynasty together with our Timur Empire!"

"When the time comes, you can plunder whatever you want!"

This shocking news once again shocked the Sultan of the Delhi Sultanate.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say.

But soon his expression turned into ecstasy, and he was unwilling to do business with Daming!
Now they are relying on the powerful Timur Empire to plunder the east together.

How can you be unhappy?
"Okay! This Sultan will send people to arrest and kill those Ming people who came to trade!"

"Cut off all contact with Ming Dynasty!"

But while they were talking, they didn't notice that there was a pair of downcast eyes on the side of the palace.

Watching them!

That is the gaze of another group of nobles from India, the Brahmins among the Aryans!
There have long been conflicts between Hinduism and Taoism!Countless grudges were made!
And the Aryan man Zheng He sent out before was a Hindu!And he’s a Kshatriya!
…………

"what?!"

"A million troops are attacking my Ming Dynasty?! How brave you are!"

"This Timur is really seeking death!"

When Zheng He learned the news from Tianzhu, the shock in his heart could not calm down for a long time!
How crazy this is!Only then would they attack the Ming Dynasty across such a vast land!

But it’s not surprising that the other party claims to be a descendant of the prairie people and wants to restore the glory of the prairie empire!
Zheng He quickly wrote a letter explaining the situation here to His Highness Taisun.

Then he ordered: "Hurry!"

"Send a fast ship to deliver this letter to His Majesty the Grand Sun!"

And sent people to evacuate all the Ming merchants who were still in Tianzhu!
After his men left with this letter.

Zheng He sat on the chair, his expression becoming solemn.

According to intelligence, the Timurid Empire has only been established for more than ten years, but it is already dominant in Central Asia, West Asia and the Middle East!
Even the power has expanded in the direction of the Ottoman Empire!

And defeated the Ottoman Empire in one fell swoop!Its power has even begun to set foot in Asia Minor!
At this time, it can be said to be a world power!

If it were to collide head-on with such a big country, it would not be difficult for Ming to win, but it would definitely be a big deal!A difficult thing!
After all, Timur's empire had an army of over one million!
It is not inferior to the number of armies of Ming Dynasty!

You must know that at this time, the total number of Ming's armies was only more than 100 million, not less than 200 million!

Especially under the leadership of Zhu Yunxuan, the Ming Dynasty eliminated the old army many times. The number of troops now only exceeds one million!

A battle with the Timur Empire is no small matter for Ming Dynasty!
Especially in this matter, the Ming Dynasty's navy could hardly get involved, because the Timurid Empire was a country competing for land hegemony.

Most of its territory is land.

Moreover, the territory is extremely broad, which is only slightly inferior to that of the Ming Dynasty.

And the other party has so many allies!
If the Ming Dynasty wanted to have a decisive battle with the Timurid Empire on the territory from Central Asia to West Asia, then the Ming Dynasty might face more than just one Timurid Empire at the same time!

And there are multiple allies behind it!

Needless to say, the Delhi Sultanate has always been under the control of the Timurid Empire.

It's just a dependent country.

In addition, there are countries like the Black Sheep Dynasty to help, and Timur's self-proclaimed steppe origins give him a chance to persuade the Golden Horde in the north to help!
I'm afraid I'll be in Central Asia by then.

There can be an army of 200 million!It can be imagined how difficult it was for Ming Dynasty to open the market of Delhi Sultanate!

Even the mainland of Ming Dynasty is under heavy threats!
These things really gave Zheng He a huge headache. He didn't expect that he had just broken through the blockade of Srivijaya and the Khmer, and actually installed such a huge empire head on!

And at the same time.

Zheng He also became extremely curious about Timur.

Because the other party was able to build such a huge empire in just a few decades.

It can be called the tribal empire with the largest territory after the grassland empire!

Its ability must not be underestimated!
After all, you have to know that in this world, they are not easy to get along with!The Chagatai Khanate alone is definitely not an easy character to deal with!

Although the Chagatai Khanate has a low reputation and appears vulnerable, it was still part of the original grassland empire.

In this land of Central Asia, he is definitely the dominant overlord!It is a powerful enemy that can threaten the Western world at all times!
And it was in this realm surrounded by powerful enemies that Timur became the overlord of Central Asia!The power expanded to West Asia and South Asia in one fell swoop!It can be said that from the Ming Dynasty all the way to the west to the borders of Europe, most of them are the sphere of influence of the Timurid Empire!
We must obey Timur's orders!

"The enemy with an army of millions...this time...is really difficult to deal with..."

Zheng He was extremely worried.

This guy, who is called 'Cripple Timur', is definitely a thorn in the side of Ming Dynasty!
Daming wanted to make some achievements overseas.

Then this Timur Empire must be eliminated!After all, the other party's ideal is to restore the glory of the grassland empire!

For Daming, he is always an enemy!
And he is an enemy of life and death!Because the Ming Dynasty was established by defeating the Yuan Dynasty!

Although the Yuan Dynasty can no longer be regarded as a grassland empire, the grassland empire includes the Yuan Dynasty!
Therefore...the land of China must be the target that Timur covets!
