Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

Chapter 325 Kneel down! then lower

After learning that the envoys from the Papal State had arrived, Zhang Yong felt very satisfied and immediately sent someone to arrange to meet them.

"King Guanzhong, these, these knights, and the archbishop, they claimed at the door that they wanted King John to come and see them in person." After a while, the envoy Zhang Yong sent out to greet them ran back and said with some guilt. .

"Oh! Do you want me to go and greet you in person?" Zhang Yong asked in surprise.

"Yes, the Grand Master of the Knights and two Archbishops claim to be the Pope's envoys." The envoy knelt on the ground and said.

To be honest, the knights and the archbishop who came to see the King of Guanzhong today were a bit arrogant and did not even dismount when they saw him.

Moreover, the tone of his speech was also very offensive and his attitude was extremely arrogant.

"Haha! Tell them, if they want to see King John of the Elder Kingdom, then come in and meet me. Don't talk nonsense. If you don't want to see me, just get out." Zhang Yong said.

This attitude is already obvious, okay? The person who came here is not kind! In this case, Zhang Yong would not be polite to these people.

The messenger nodded, turned and left Zhang Yong's palace.

"Go and mobilize a thousand guards to come in, and then ambush around the palace. As soon as I drop the cup, you will rush out immediately.

What's the difference between this and being defeated in a war and destroying the country, and then being captured and taken to the enemy's camp to meet the enemy's leader?

I am not defeated, and what is your Papal State? You guys can't even deal with a fucking Emperor of the Shinra, and you still have to recruit reinforcements from all over the place. A bunch of nobles in Europe still don't like you.

"I didn't say that I would give you two artifacts, but I would give them to you so that you can see the appearance of demons and angels. These things must be returned." Zhang Yong said.

"In that case! Everyone, please go back! The King of Guanzhong will not see you." The messenger said.

Anyway, the order passed down by the King of Guanzhong was very simple, just to be tough with them, so the envoy was not timid.

The latter nodded, immediately got up and went down to make arrangements. Soon a thousand Mongolian troops were ambushing around the palace, and a hundred Zhang Yong's Han soldiers were also standing beside him.

“We will only kneel to the Pope.”

"Your attitude is too arrogant. King John has already acted very rudely without coming to greet us in person, and now he actually wants us to hand over our weapons." The leader of the knights said.

"Kneel down!" Zhang Yong said. This sentence does not need translation because it is said in a language they can understand.

This posture is very unreasonable, it looks like lying on a chair, this behavior. The archbishop and a group of knights below felt that Zhang Yong was very rude.

"For knights, weapons are the continuation of their lives. We will never hand over our weapons." The leader of the Church Knights said.

"King John, do you want me to repeat that?"

"The archbishop can keep his scepter, but the knights' weapons must be handed over, or they can be left outside the temple. It's your choice." The messenger in charge of the reception said.

The atmosphere at the scene was a little awkward. The two archbishops and a group of knights did not expect that King John would be so arrogant.

(Let me explain here, King John and King Guanzhong both refer to the protagonist, but they are called differently by foreigners and Central Plains people.)

"Everyone, if you want to meet the King of Guanzhong, you must hand over all the weapons you carry." The guards stopped the knights who wanted to enter.

"I say, kneel down!!" After Zhang Yong finished speaking, he spilled his wine glass on the ground. Suddenly, dense soldiers rushed out from the pavilion pillars, holding swords, and surrounded the knights and the archbishop.

"King John, since you have admitted your identity and are convinced that you are from the Presbyterian Kingdom, you should obey the leadership of the Pope and obey the orders of the Pope. We are here to take back the artifact. Please hand over the artifact. ." The Archbishop said.

After all this trouble, a group of people came to Zhang Yong's palace and met the legendary King John.

I have made absolute preparations for protection. Since you are polite first and then attack, I naturally have no choice but to have a back-up plan!

It seems that the Pope did not do what he imagined!

Although they were dissatisfied that King John did not come out to greet them, they could not ignore the tasks assigned by the Pope, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the city, and then arrived in front of Zhang Yong's palace.

"King John, the Pope is the person closest to God. Since you have obtained the artifact, it must be God's will for you to bring these things to the Papal State.

"Do you even want to take away the crutches used by the elderly to move around?" the two archbishops and some other priests and priests said.

and then into the hands of the Pope. So please hand over the remaining artifacts and tell the Pope how to use them in detail, and then follow us to worship the Pope. "The archbishop who took the lead said.

"Haha! Hahahaha!" Zhang Yong did not answer, but burst out laughing, then picked up the wine glass next to him and took a slow sip of wine.

What the hell! A group of barbarians entered the palace of the King of Guanzhong and even wanted to carry weapons. This was not the rule in all dynasties.

I also want to present it to the Pope, and I will go with them to see the Pope, right? Zhang Yong asked a little funny.

"No, no! Tell them, I didn't understand what they just said." Zhang Yong lay on his side, sitting on the throne, supporting his head with his hands and watching as a group of knights and archbishops below said.

You must ensure your own safety, and you must not be arrogant in anything. You must have the capital to be arrogant.

Now the equivalent of a King John fanatic. The European businessman was also very angry that the Lord humiliated his minister and died, but he still dutifully translated their words to Zhang Yong.

"Yes, great King John, that's what the other party said. I think they are very rude. How about driving them out!"

Civilization is only built on your barbarism. As long as a normal person with a moderately capable mind would do this kind of thing.

Wait, what's going on? Thank you for the two artifacts I gave to the Papal States. I didn’t give you anything! Dash cams and electric prods are not given to you.

"Welcome to my palace." Zhang Yong said.

"Oh! You mean, they said all the artifacts I carry should be dedicated to the Pope, and the artifacts I personally received.

And I arranged for a hundred guards to guard me. At the same time, when these people came in, I asked them to hand over all the weapons they had. "Zhang Yong said to Cha Tuohua beside him.

In the end, I showed you kindness, but you dared to retaliate with kindness. You are indeed a bunch of barbarians. No wonder the Romans called you the descendants of the three major barbarians in Europe!

"King John, what do you mean by this? Are you going to draw your sword against the angel of God and wave your sword against your brother?"

After the two sides argued for a while, the two leading archbishops persuaded them to keep the long swords they carried.

"Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, the European businessman in charge of the translation was immediately confused. These guys, these guys, are so rude?

"Good day, your distinguished Lord King John, the Pope wishes me to say hello to you. Thank you for the two artifacts you gave to the Papal State. We will keep them safe." The leading archbishop saluted Zhang Yong and said.

This King John is no ordinary being. Recently. However, under the instruction of King John, he saw the appearance of angels many times and even witnessed some miraculous things.

The European businessman standing next to Zhang Yong immediately translated.

Although we are gritting our teeth, the current situation is stronger than others! This place is densely packed with soldiers from the Elder Kingdom, and their weapons have been taken away. Even if they want to resist, they seem to be unable to resist.

A group of priests and knights knelt down on one knee with angry eyes.

"Joseph, come here and teach me a few words." Zhang Yong looked at the European businessman who was translating for him, called him over, and whispered in his ear.

"Yes, great King John, what do you want me to teach you?"

"This...and these words, how do you say them?"

"Great King John, all you have to say is this."

After the two exchanged briefly for a while, Zhang Yong nodded and stood up. Facing the knight kneeling below and the archbishop

"Their kneeling posture is not standard. Please teach them how to kneel." Zhang Yong said to his men.

A group of Mongolian soldiers smiled after hearing this, came in front of these knights and priests, and kicked their knees directly.

Those who tried to resist had a knife held to their necks and then kicked to the ground.

"Ah! Why are you?"

"Why do you want to hurt your brothers?" A group of knights were knocked to the ground and successfully learned how to kneel down.

"Lower down! Hit your head on the ground." Zhang Yong said. "King John, are you humiliating us? You are humiliating the Pope, you are violating the will of God." The archbishop, who was kneeling on his knees, said with an angry look.

This bastard usually has civilians, nobles and even kings kneeling down to them. How have they ever knelt down to others?

"I said, kneel lower for me." Zhang Yong said.

A group of Mongolian soldiers immediately stepped forward and kicked the knights and the archbishop on the lower backs.

He made them lie down on the ground, grabbed their hands, pressed their heads, and banged them on the floor.

Let them learn the formal kneeling ceremony.

"That's right, this is the etiquette of kneeling. Remember it for me. When you kneel to me, you have to kneel like this.

This is our basic etiquette. You must learn it and abide by it. "Zhang Yong said.

A group of bishops and knights who were pinned to the ground looked at Zhang Yong with angry eyes and said some words that Zhang Yong couldn't understand at all.

However, these words did not need translation at all, and Zhang Yong could also understand that he was cursing himself.

Zhang Yong left his throne, walked down the stage, looked at the knights and bishops kneeling on the ground, smiled, and then came to the leading general.

He directly raised his foot and stepped on the other person's head, and then rubbed it hard so that the other person's face was in close contact with the floor.

"I am very confused. I expressed my good intentions to you, but your Pope misunderstood my meaning.

I have never been a subordinate of your Pope. I have entered the realm of the true God. I am King John. I am the High Priest King of the Elder Kingdom.

In my country, my status is equivalent to that of the Pope. "Zhang Yong said.

"You! You! You guy, how dare you? I am the archbishop, I am the archbishop."

"I expressed goodwill to you, but you robbed my artifact like a robber. Is this your etiquette?

You even came to my palace and forced me to hand over the remaining artifacts. "Zhang Yong said.

"This is His Majesty the Pope's will, and you should obey it."

"Shut up! Listen to me, all of you. Listen to every word. Listen to every word.

I will release a bishop and a knight as a guard, and let you return to report something to your pope.

Tell him that in one year I will personally conquer his Papal State.

Then capture him alive, who has been bewitched by the devil, and I will correct your error. "Zhang Yong said.

"You unreasonable person, how dare you say such rebellious words, how dare you humiliate the Pope like this!" the Archbishop said.

“These things are not for you to consider, they are for the Pope to consider.

What you have to consider now is to elect two representatives. I am very kind and leave this choice to you. "Zhang Yong said.

"King John, do you mean to imprison the rest of us? It would be blasphemous to do so," the Archbishop said.

"Imprisoning you, no no no! You seem to have misunderstood.

You have offended me, and you have offended the king in our eastern kingdom of elders, which is a capital crime, and all of you except the two messengers will be put to death. "Zhang Yong said.

The European businessman on the side translated this sentence very excitedly and happily.

The King John he is following now might become the Pope in the future. Can he also become a great nobleman?

"How dare you? This is against the rules. You, you actually want to kill us. How did I offend you?" A knight said.

"I never said anything to the robbers. The people who came took them all and put them in cells.

After three days, I hope they can choose two decent messengers.

If I can't choose, I'll just kill at will until there are only the last two lucky ones left. "Zhang Yong said.

"No, King John, you can't do this. You are the king of the Elder Kingdom. You should abide by some basic etiquette." When they heard that everyone could only live for two, a large group of knights and bishops, the archbishops suddenly panicked. .

"You can't do this! King John, you are killing God's people, and God will punish you."

A large group of knights and bishops who were dragged down shouted to Zhang Yong.

"What did they say?"

"They are cursing you, great King John, don't pay attention to them." The European businessman in charge of the translation said.

"You are right, prepare for war! I will personally break into the Papal State and teach the Pope the etiquette of kneeling." Zhang Yong smiled and said.

"Hahaha! You are right, King Guanzhong. You have to teach them the etiquette of kneeling in person. We will teach them in person." Cha Tuohua said.

"Send an envoy to Batu and inform him that our next target is to attack Hungary and Poland. Their target is Austria and the HRE Empire, while we are to attack the Papal States and the Mediterranean." Zhang Yong He spoke.

"Order!"

At the same time that Zhang Yong was dealing with the envoys from the Papal State.

On the Kipchak grassland, the grassland army led by Batu and Subotai also rested here, carried out animal husbandry, made dried meat and milk, and stored military rations.

At the same time, the next strategic deployment was arranged in the camp of Batu on the Qincha grassland. All the Mongolian officers, princes, Subotai and others gathered here.

"Everyone! The military advisor has sent people to convey the news. He has already investigated several other countries.

We discussed in letters and decided that we would attack the Kingdom of Hungary, and he would lead his people to attack the Kingdom of Poland.

Quickly capture and defeat these two countries, and then occupy their territory. After that, we will join forces and discuss the next direction of attack. " Batu said.

"I agree with your strategist's strategy. We will attack Hungary, and your strategist will go to attack Poland." Subotai said.

"Prince Batu, we may be able to recruit a group of troops from the Kipchaks. They are also the people's cavalry." Meng Ge said.

Hearing this, Batu nodded in agreement.

Although the Kipchaks are not as effective as the Mongols in combat, they are also nomadic and their cavalry skills are quite good.

Recruiting them was indeed a good choice, and more importantly, he chose to follow Zhang Yong's wishes and sign more Mongolian herdsmen to live locally in the future. If he did this, he would naturally have to eliminate some of the Kipchak tribe's population. .

"Prince Mengge is right, and I agree with this." A large group of people followed the Mongolian generals beside Batu and agreed.

"In that case, then send an envoy! Ask them to hand over their cattle and sheep, and send troops to join the war. Come and join us this autumn." Batu said.

After the military meeting, Batu immediately sent an envoy.

Send troops to all the Kipchak tribes that have surrendered, asking them to send reinforcements and send troops to Central Europe with them this fall.

Each tribe must contribute some troops, at least one-fifth of all the men in the tribe, and a large number of cattle, sheep, and livestock.
