The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Although Chechen promised to fight for Cherkessk for Stepan Racine from Muhammad Glyy, he left the camp for Azov after sending a messenger to Kursk early the next morning. And directly ceded Cherkessk to Stepan Racine. This makes Karasimir angry and angry, yet daring to be angry but not speaking.

Of course Karazimir's emotions are clearly in our eyes. During a break, Cheerchen called Karazimir over.

He said to Karasimirza: "Karasimirza, do you have something to tell me?"

"No, Lord Bey. I don't have one!" Karazimir said in a muffled voice. But the clanging sound of the small metal plate chain armor, scimitars and accessories on his body when he strode, undoubtedly showed that he had something to say, but he didn't dare to say it.

Cheerchen smiled and beckoned to Karazimir to get him closer to him. Karazimir did so.

Cheerchen handed a note to Karazimir. The text on the note was written in Arabic and Russian, and Karachi could not read a single word. Because he is illiterate.

Cheerchen had no choice but to explain to him: "This is what the Dmitry Tsar has for you. From now on, as long as Cherkessk is still his, you will get one thousand Taylors each year, which is about one hundred gold coins. Dividends."

Karazimir's hands began to tremble, and he felt that this note, as light as a feather, was as heavy as a mountain now.

After a while, Karazimir swallowed, and he said to Cheerchen: "Bey, what do you want me to do?"

Although Karazimirza said that Muhammad Gley was promoted as a rookie, he still fell in the face of money. After all, the income of one hundred gold coins a year is five times more than the village that Muhammad Glay bestowed on him.

Cheerchen was also quite satisfied to see Karazimir on the road like this. What he fears most is that Karazimir is the kind of "dead-headed" person.

"It's not me, it's Tsar Dmitry. He wants you to support him in occupying Cherkessk. I think there should be a secret channel of communication between you and Khan. If Khan asks about you, you will be there. What Erkeske saw and heard told him exactly."

"It's that simple?" Karazimir said in disbelief.

"It's that simple!" Cheerchen confirmed.

In fact, Cheerchen once asked Karazimir to hand over Cherkessk to Stepan Racine for analysis in a secret letter to Muhammad Glyy, but he quickly gave up. Karazimir has a rude personality, and asking him to write such a methodical thing can only be said to make Muhammad Glyy understand that his subordinate has been bought. Instead of this, it is better to let Muhammad Gley judge the pros and cons by himself based on the facts. Chechen believed that Muhammad Glyy was not a stupid person, he would understand the benefits of supporting a Dmitry czar to the Khanate.

"Well, I will do it, Bey."

This time, Karazimir did not even hesitate and agreed.

After two days of travel, Chechen finally arrived at Fort Azov, the easternmost territory of the Crimean Khanate.

In the middle of the journey, Cheerchen and the others met with the Tatar cavalry led by Sagetebeyi. According to the leader, they were the vanguard forces sent by Sagete Bey, and Bey himself is leading a large group of troops. They all came to support Chechenbey's attack on Cherkessk.

A late reinforcements made Cheerchen's first impression of Saijet Bey bad.

And when Cheerchen met and talked with Segetbey himself, Cheerchen disgusted him even more in his heart.

From the outside, Sagetebey is about fifty years old. His face is thin, his arms are thin, and his body is thin. The whole person is thin like a monkey. Such an image is unpleasant, and what is even more exaggerated is that there are four golden rings on the left cheek of Sagete Bey. The golden rings are arranged vertically through the skin, gleaming in the sun.

As soon as Segetbey saw Cheerchen, he asked him to be a prisoner.

"Where are the prisoners? Chechenbey, where are the prisoners you caught in Cherkessk?" Saijietebey's eyes widened, and he looked towards Chechen's team for a long while but didn't find what he wanted. So opened his mouth and asked.

And this is obviously extremely rude. Although it was said that Cheerchen was not considered to people like Karasimir at first, but on the bright side, Karasimir still knows to salute Cheerchen at least. And Saijet is of course Baie, but he doesn't even have the least courtesy.

Yelishei, Fatima and others were of course very angry when they saw Saijietbeyi acting like this. Although Cheerchen did not like Saijietbeyi, he was not the impulsive boy before. Cheerchen asked Sagetebey with a smile: "Sagetebey, what kind of prisoners are you looking for? Although we caught some in Cherkessk, we have already bought them."

The captives were indeed sold, and the buyer was Chelchen.

After the capture of Cherkessk, in addition to being killed in the resistance, the Tatars captured hundreds of men, women, and children in the city. According to Tatar tradition, these captives belong to whoever catches them, and even the commander cannot seize the spoils of his subordinates for no reason. Therefore, Cheechen, who is pitiful for the fate of these people, used his own money to buy all these prisoners from the Tatar soldiers according to the old method, and immediately gave them freedom. This also made Cherkessk's army not a single prisoner.

"Sold it?" Sagetebey heard that the captive had already been sold, like a frustrated ball.

"My blonde beauty..." Sagetebey sighed.

Although Saijie Tebei's words were light, they were still heard by Cheer Chen. When I heard that Segetbey was so disappointed, it turned out that it was because of the woman. Looking at his lustful look, Cheerchen understood why this Bey was so thin.

This added another layer to Cheer Chen's contempt for him.

However, Cheerchen’s army is going to Azov for rest after all, and Saijet Bey is the master of Azov, so no matter how unhappy Cheerchen is and despise Saijet, from the outside, Cheerchen is still Show enthusiasm for it.

"It turns out that the blond woman Bey wanted." Cheerchen smiled and wrote a blank check. "How difficult is this. When I get to Azov, I will send someone by sea to Kafa to buy some for you. Although I am here," There are no captives, but other Bay and Mir should also be rewarding."

After listening to Cheer Chen's words, Saijie Tebei smiled openly. He immediately grabbed Cheerchen's hand.

"Chechenbey, then I would like to thank you very much. Oh, yes, I didn’t expect you to shoot down Cherkessk so soon, so the soldiers are still on the way. But it’s not easy for everyone to come out, you write In the letter of good news to Khan, it will also give us something..."

When it came to Azov, Sagetebey announced that he would enthusiastically meet with his officers in the city lord mansion.

When Cheerchen stepped into the lobby of the Azov City Lord's Mansion, there were already two people waiting in the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion. One of the two men is an Arab wearing a huge headscarf and the other is a Jew wearing a little black hat. They kept saying hello to Chechen and Karachi, and then asked roundly about the outcome of the Battle of Cherkessk. , How much is harvested.

Seeing the two of them act like this, Cheerchen had some guesses about the identity of the two of them-the merchant. And there is a very high possibility of part-time slave trader.

Of course, Cheerchen's remarks are the same as he said to Saijie Tebey, that is, the captives have been sold a long time ago.

Hearing Cheerchen said that they did not bring captives this time, the two businessmen couldn't help showing disappointed expressions.

But the Jewish businessman still didn't give up, and asked if Cheerchen had seized other items except for human accidents.

At this time, Chechen remembered the fur they had seized in Cherkessk. Chechen told the two businessmen that they had seized a lot of fur in Cherkessk, and asked the two businessmen if they wanted it.

As soon as they heard of fur, the breathing of Arab and Jewish merchants became heavy. In Europe, fur is the same hard currency as gold and silver coins!

Due to the arrival of the Little Ice Age, the temperature of the earth was generally lower than before in the 17th century, and this deeply stimulated the demand for fur products in Western Europe. And Tsarist Russia, which occupied Siberia, was the largest exporter of fur products at that time. Russian fur had a "mythical price" in the market. In 1646, Siberia and other places controlled by Tsarist Russia provided Europe with 200,000 yuan. Zhang mink, 10,000 black fox skins, and 500,000 squirrel skins. The fur trade foreign exchange accounted for one third of Russia's foreign exchange income in the 17th century. These incomes are also the material basis for Tsarist Russia's ability to train the new army and introduce foreign technicians and soldiers. In fact, many foreign technicians and military personnel receive salary, not rubles, but fur.

"Dear Bey, how much fur do you have?" the Jewish merchant asked in a trembling voice.

"There are more than a dozen cars," Cheechen said. He can't remember. Because although the fur is precious, it is really nothing to Cheerchen, who is already rich and inferior to the country. He could remember how many cars he had, or it was because Fedot had mentioned a few words to himself along the way.

More than a dozen cars! The eyes of the two businessmen began to counterfeit gold coins. They immediately asked Cheerchen to show them the goods. And for such a trivial matter, Cheer Chen sent them to find Xie Miao.

"Okay, okay. Chechenbey, and Karasimirza, I have prepared a great feast for you, so please enjoy it quickly." When the two businessmen walked away, Sagetebey Enthusiastically took Cheorchen's hand and greeted him.

As a result, Chechen and Sagetbey walked side by side into the restaurant in Azov, followed by Karazmirzan and Patriarch Isaac.

At the banquet, Sagetebey always reminded Chechen about the blonde beauty, he was worried that the hot new dignitaries of the Khanate would have forgotten. Cheerchen had to agree one after another, and Saijie Tebei finally let go of his heart.

Where did Saijiet know that Cheerchen's thoughts had already flown away.

After the banquet, Cheerchen wrote a letter in the room arranged for him by Sagetebey. He wrote a total of three letters, one of which was for Uncle Pidro. He reported to Uncle Pidro that he was safe and brought him a check for the money he obtained during the Crimea campaign. Let the uncle send some back to Spain; this second letter, Chechen wrote to the Viscount Hessen, and he asked the Viscount Hessian to return to Hessen to recruit a group of German mercenaries for himself, and it is best to train them in the Thirty Years’ War. Veterans and transported to Azov. According to theory, Chechen has completed the task assigned to him by Muhammad Gley, and there is no need for more soldiers, but Chechen has an idea-he is going to Kursk, to the heart of Tsarist Russia, he wants Go to the executioner of Yakov, he wants to avenge Franco and the others, so he needs more reliable fighters. And the third letter, Cheer Chen wrote to Natalie. This is also the most difficult one for Cheer Chen to write, because he doesn't know how to begin, narrate, and end.

"Let’s do it for my sake-calm down. After you leave, I’m good enough after crying~www.readwn.com~ The only thing that makes me sad is your anger. Dear Natalie , My baby, don’t torture me anymore. We must all be calm so that we can calm down. Be less unreasonable, otherwise we will only become polo being beaten around in the game."

Cheerchen wrote and felt that his words did not express his meaning. He threw the letters on the ground in a ball. On the floor, there are dozens of the same paper **** welcoming their companions.

There is another reason Cheerchen thinks about Natalie so much, that is, on the night Natalie left, there was a body of Wenxiang Nephrite who spent the night with him. In Cheerchen's subconscious mind, it was Natalie who was with him.

Finally, Cheor Chen wrote a letter to Natalie that felt good about herself. He clipped this letter into a letter to Uncle Pietro. Then, the two letters were taken away by Yelisei on a boat at the Azov pier.

On the road from Cherkessk to Obyan, Galdan Tserling drew a feather arrow from the neck of a deceased who was lying on the ground. He unfolded the letter he found from the deceased’s skin and looked at it carefully. Got up, then smiled contemptuously.

"General, what's the matter?"

On the side, a Kalmyk centurion asked him.

"Nothing." Galdan Celing folded the letter three times, then put it back in the envelope.

"Azi Tanzan, you give this letter to Taiji and tell him that I have received two hundred muskets. Those Cossacks are very honest and didn't lie to us."

"Yes, General." The centurion named Azi Tanzan took the letter, then took the letter in his arms and left.

"Warriors of Tulhut!" Galdan Celing waved his whip. He shouted to the three hundred cavalry behind him: "Let us wield the machete and have fun!"
