Daming: If I find a great-grandson, I will teach an emperor through the ages

Chapter 200 The Confused King of Sardinia

Adam's big eyes were full of confusion.

Where do these people come from?

How can you know what he is thinking?

And he can sneak into his own mansion without anyone noticing...

The masked man who spoke just now bared his teeth, "Hiss..."

His name was An Liu, and he was one of the guards Zhu Di brought to Dongyi from the Peking Palace.

This time on a mission to Europe with Zhu Di, which one of their personal guards doesn't want to show off?

On the day he arrived in Europe, Zhu Di determined the general plan for the Kingdom of Sardinia, and An Liu and others began to learn Sardinian with the military translator.

A night of studying hard made Anliu and the others feel dizzy. Fortunately, Anliu was gifted and had learned some daily expressions to a minimum.

An Liuben spoke with great difficulty and stumbling, but Adam said, "What did you say?" An Liu thought he had remembered it wrong and said the wrong thing.

After thinking about it again in his mind, An Liu repeated what he had just said.

Adam stared at the clothes on these people and glanced up and down several times, his eyes suddenly widened.

"I know! You are from Ming Dynasty!"

"Did General Lan Yu send you here?"

An Liu also thought over Adam's words in his mind, and felt that there was something wrong with this man's mind.

The gun is pressed against your head. Is this something you should be concerned about?

"Don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked. You only need to answer whether you agree to cooperate with us."

Seeing that An Liu was clueless, Adam felt that he had guessed correctly.

Although these people's clothes were deliberately dressed up, there were obviously many unreasonable things in them. Adam could still tell that these people were not from the Kingdom of Sardinia!

Under the circumstances at this time, he still dared to send people and sneaked into the Kingdom of Sardinia without anyone noticing, and sneaked into his own mansion to assassinate...

With such courage, it must be the Ming army!

Although Zhu Di was the prince of the Ming Dynasty, Adam felt that Zhu Di was nothing special. He was just a drunkard. These people must have been sent by Lan Yu, the general of the Ming Dynasty.

Adam used his little IQ to go through it all, and he was very sure of his guess.

After guessing the identity of the other party, Adam was not so afraid.

If the other party can find you, it means that you are outstanding enough! Of course, the other party is also visionary enough. As long as both parties work together, great things can be expected!

An Liu didn't bother to argue with him so much and let him guess whatever he wanted.

"Qiang", a soft cry.

An Liu pulled out a dagger from his arms, stepped forward and put it on Adam's neck.

The slight chill cooled down the hot blood all over Adam's body, but he was still very excited.

He has been waiting for this day all these years!

Waiting for the time when I can show off my skills!

Waiting to let old Modrelli and little Maud see how powerful he is!

Now, the day has finally come!

He had already seen that the throne of Sardinia was beckoning to him.

He must make Modrelli and his son regret it!

Before An Liu could speak again, Adam was the first to speak up.

"I will cooperate with you! If there is such a good thing, of course we must cooperate, but I have one request."

An Liu was slightly surprised, but nodded calmly, "You tell me."

"When the matter is completed, you must hand Old Modrelli and his son over to me."

Hearing Adam say these words, An Liu realized what kind of idiot this handsome man in front of him was.

When dealing with stupid people, of course you have to go along with it.

An Liu put down his knife and waved his hand, asking the gunman to put away his musket.

In fact, the purpose of the musket was to intimidate Adam and force him to submit.

Even if Adam refused to cooperate with them, An Liu and the others would not shoot. There were no silencers in this era, and the sound of shooting would be too loud.

Adam is not the only candidate Zhu Di is looking for. If Adam fails here, An Liu and the others can find other candidates.

But once a shot is fired and a commotion occurs, in the royal city of Sardinia, An Liu and his men will not be able to escape unscathed.

However, An Liu and the others did not expect that Adam would be such a stupid person. The musket he took out was immediately useless. They didn't even need to threaten them, and the other party rushed forward and asked for cooperation.

But An Liu still kept a cautious eye. After all, they didn't know Adam well. They didn't know if Adam was really stupid or if he was acting to fool them.

"For the sake of convenience in the future, it would be better for Your Excellency Adam to establish a formal document, so that we can convey Your Excellency Adam's wishes to the higher-ups."

Adam didn't think much about it. He directly found a pen and paper and wrote down everything about the conspiracy between the two parties. Then he bit his finger and crushed it hard.

An Liu also pressed his fingerprints on it, and then said:

"Pleasant to work with."

Adam responded with a smile, "It's a pleasure to cooperate."

With this document, An Liu and the others were not afraid that Adam was deceiving them.

Nodding towards Adam, An Liu and the others ducked out of the room.

After two breaths, Adam went out to take a look. He looked around, but there was no sign of anyone, which made Adam sigh in admiration.

"What a skill."

An Liu and the others did not expect that the matter would go so smoothly, so they found an opportunity to send the secret contract away...

The evening of the second day.

When Adam returned to the house again, he saw an envelope on the table.

His heart moved, and he hurried forward to take it apart and take a look.

"Three days later, someone will come to pick up Mr. Adam in the small forest five miles south of the city."

Adam knew that Lan Yu planned to meet him and discuss with him the specific matters of dealing with old Modrelli!

Adam's heart was filled with excitement as he thought that he was one step closer to the throne!

Three days later.

Adam found an excuse to leave the city early and came to the small forest south of the city.

There was already a carriage waiting for him. The driver lowered his head and could not see his face clearly. He only made a gesture for him to get in the carriage.

Adam got into the car. There was another person in the carriage. After Adam sat firmly, the carriage began to move slowly.

The carriage was specially made, with three sides tightly sealed, leaving only a curtain at the entrance. Adam sat inside and had no idea where the carriage was going, but in his guess, it was probably going to the Ming Army Camp.

After swaying for an hour, the carriage finally stopped.

The driver outside said something that Adam didn't understand, so the people in the car asked Adam to get out of the car.

To Adam's surprise, they arrived not at the Ming Dynasty military camp, but at a small inn somewhere in the Kingdom of Sardinia.

Although it is small, this inn still has a standard European architectural style with a round roof. This kind of inn usually has no shortage of business.

But this inn has obviously been cleared out, and there is not a single Sardinian citizen, so it is completely empty.

The people around him took Adam into the inn and waited for another half an hour. Just when Adam could hardly wait any longer, the sound of footsteps came from outside.

Footsteps came to the door, and then the door was pushed open.

But what came was not the Lan Yu that Adam thought of, but the Zhu Di whom he once looked down upon.

Adam was a little surprised, but he still stood up and saluted Zhu Di respectfully. Zhu Di had a higher status than him.

Zhu Di walked into the room and sat down, smiling and waving to Adam.

"You're welcome, sit down."

After the translator finished translating, Adam sat down in confusion.

For some reason, Zhu Di didn't feel like the same person to Adam today compared to the previous days.

A few days ago, Zhu Di was obviously a second-generation ancestor who only knew how to eat but not cook. But today, Zhu Di is personable and looks so confident and powerful!

Ma He poured a cup of tea for each of them.

Zhu Di got straight to the point, "I am very clear about Your Excellency Adam's wishes. After the matter is completed, the King of Sardinia and his son can be handed over to you, but... whether you can take the throne depends on Your Excellency Adam's courage. .”

After hearing this, Adam immediately forgot about everything else, as if he had been given a shot of blood.

As long as he can get the throne, he can do anything!

After Adam's sworn assurance, Zhu Di chuckled.

When Zhu Di stopped laughing, Adam felt an invisible pressure coming over him.

Zhu Di said lightly, "What I want you to do is very simple. Go to war with all the neighboring countries around the Kingdom of Sardinia!"

Adam suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning and stood stunned on the spot.

Did he hear it correctly? Zhu Di wants him to go to war with all the neighboring countries of the Kingdom of Sardinia?

How can this be?

Even if the Sardinian Kingdom and the large armies in Lan Yu's hands joined forces, they could defeat them one by one.

Wouldn't it be suicidal to declare war on multiple countries like this?

Although Adam's position in the Kingdom of Sardinia was that of a military attache, at that time his wife cried, made trouble, and hung herself to get it, and he only had the power to dispatch 20,000 troops.

If you want to use 20,000 soldiers to go to war with multiple countries, that is no different than seeking death!

Even the small countries in the south, the Papal State and the State of Naples, can easily destroy them! Not to mention Venice and other countries.

"Your Majesty, this! This..." Adam was so shocked that he stuttered for a moment.

"The villain only has 20,000 troops. How can he... start a war with a neighboring country?"

Zhu Di smiled and comforted him,

"The 20,000 troops in your hands are not important. What is important is that you have the flag of Sardinia."

Adam didn't understand.

Zhu Di continued: "Your Excellency Adam is a great talent. He only commands 20,000 troops and is overqualified. I will support Your Excellency Adam with 200,000 troops and corresponding muskets and artillery."

Zhu Di's simple compliment made Adam immediately feel happy, as if what Zhu Di said was true.

Here Zhu Di is still whispering seductively,

"As long as the war breaks out on Lord Adam's side, the Sardinian palace will be in chaos, and the old Sardinian king will be in a hurry. When the time comes..."

Adam and Zhu Di discussed in this inn for half an hour. After finalizing all the details, Zhu Di led Adam out of the inn.

Arriving outside the inn, Adam looked around and was immediately startled.

I saw a dense crowd of soldiers from the Ming Dynasty standing outside the inn. They all stared at Adam with unkind eyes, making him feel a chill running through him from head to toe.

There must be at least two thousand of these soldiers.

Why did Zhu Di come here with so many soldiers? Adam couldn't understand.

Zhu Di patted Adam on the shoulder, then boarded another carriage accompanied by Ma He, waved to him, and then left with a large number of soldiers.

It wasn't until Zhu Di and the others were out of sight that Adam withdrew his gaze and reached out to touch his back. He was covered in cold sweat!

Only the two people who had sent Adam here were left at the scene. One of them made a gesture, and Adam got into the carriage again and staggered back to the King of Sardinia.

The reason why Zhu Di was half an hour late and brought two thousand elite soldiers to see Adam was just to be on precaution.

The old king of Sardinia, Modreli, was ambitious and had long wanted to compete with the Ming Dynasty.

Adam is a fool and is easy to deceive, but if Adam is afraid that he will reveal clues and be followed by Old Modrelli and follow the clues to find this place, the scene will not be good.

Of course, he wouldn't dare to take action against Zhu Di even if he borrowed Old Modreli's courage.

If Zhu Di died in Europe, Ming Dynasty would not care so much and would definitely send a large army to attack.

So Zhu Di only brought 2,000 people, purely to give himself a little extra space in case of emergencies...

According to Zhu Di's instructions, after Adam returned, he was honest for two days and behaved as usual.

On the third day, he asked to lead his 20,000 troops out of the city for training.

Old Modrelli didn't think much about it and agreed impatiently.

Do you still need to train your 20,000 troops?

At the beginning, Old Modrelli's daughter was desperate to get an official position for Adam, but she had no choice but to give him a symbolic position.

And the 20,000 troops in Adam's hands were naturally not good stuff. They were all leftovers from other armies.

It can be said that Old Modrelli only regarded the 20,000 people in Adam's hands as toys for Adam to play with so that he could clear his ears.

Naturally, Old Modrelli never cared about the more than 20,000 people in Adam's hands.

Adam wanted to go out of the city to train troops, which was exactly what he wanted, and he could not see this annoying son-in-law for many days.

Adam didn't know what Old Modreli was thinking, so he just took the order and led the troops out of the city. However, someone noticed that Adam seemed to be carrying a large number of military flags when he left the city.

After a while, no one paid attention to Adam and his 20,000 troops anymore, as if there was no such person in the world.

After Adam left, old Modrelli could not see his stupid and unaware son-in-law, and he did live a comfortable life for a few days.

In addition, the joint fight against the Ming Dynasty that he and other European countries had discussed was almost coming to an end.

There are only two countries in Europe that have yet to express their stance. One is Venice, and the other is a neighboring country in the north, a small country called Switzerland.

Switzerland and Venice were on good terms. Old Modrelli knew that this must be because the Venetian king still resented himself for seizing their territory and was deliberately causing harm. However, for the time being, he had no good solution but to urge other countries to put pressure on Venice and Switzerland. .

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

That day, old Modrelli came to the court meeting and was preparing to discuss matters with the ministers. An extremely anxious voice came from outside!

"It's not easy! Adam led the troops to fight with Venice!"
