Daming Military Empire

Chapter 427 Alliance Request
Suyman was really scared all the way. He originally thought that the densely packed warships in Xingcheng Port were the entire navy of the Ming Empire, but he didn't expect that after arriving at Dongdaying, the sea was also densely covered with warships, which was even more terrifying. Yes, the huge city next to the port.

The capital of the Ottoman Empire can be said to be a famous super city in Europe, with a population of close to one million. However, in front of the huge Eastern Camp, it seems a bit insignificant.

He originally thought that this was the capital of Daming, but he never thought that Xiao Jiuzheng didn't stop here at all, but took him on the train and continued on his way!
He has heard of trains as steel monsters. There are many trains in Europe, Spain, which is also a country along the Mediterranean Sea. Naturally, many people in the Ottoman Empire have seen trains, but not many people have taken trains. Iman never sat.

Steel monsters, really steel monsters, can actually run by themselves, and run faster than galloping horses!
He has not yet recovered from the shock of taking the train for the first time, but the capital of Daming has already arrived. My God, this is such a terrifying super giant city. The fast trains drove around the city wall for a long time before entering the city!

He was really frightened by the power of the Ming Empire. He originally thought that the Ming Empire was stupid and rich, and he wanted to come here to fight the autumn wind. Now, he really wants to be an envoy to promote an alliance between the Ottoman Empire and the Ming Empire. .

Yes, it is necessary to promote an alliance between the two countries. He is greedy, but it does not mean that he is an idiot. On the contrary, he is quite smart, otherwise he would not be able to stand out from many competitors and become His Majesty the Emperor of the Ottoman Empire. One of the trusted confidants.

He didn't want to promote the alliance between the two countries for the sake of the Ottoman Empire. His main purpose was to find a big backer. After all, he was not the only favorite confidant of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ottoman Empire. Cruel, if you are not careful, you may be eaten by your opponent without even scum left.

It would be different if there was such a powerful backing as the Ming Empire. No matter who wanted to touch him, he had to consider the consequences. The Ming Empire was even stronger than the Ottoman Empire!

Therefore, after seeing Zhu Cijiong, he was extremely respectful, even more respectful than meeting Ibrahim I.

Zhu Cijiong didn't feel anything special, because almost everyone was very submissive in front of him, and he was used to it. After a few polite greetings, he asked directly: "Master Su, I don't know if you took the lead this time. What is the so-called embassy mission coming to Daming?"

He also knows that this guy is here to corrupt, the reason why he asks this is to give him a chance to speak, to see what he wants, to send him a boat, and then let people beat him around for a while, eat and drink and serve him well , just deal with it.

But I never thought that after listening to the interpreter's explanation, Suyman immediately bowed his hands solemnly and said: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire, I am here this time as entrusted by our Emperor of the Ottoman Empire to discuss the alliance between the two countries with your country." I wonder if His Majesty the Emperor is willing to form an alliance with our Ottoman Empire?"

Nima, what is this song about? It seems that I have never heard that the Ottoman Empire has the intention of forming an alliance. Zhu Cijiong couldn't help but cast a glance at Xiao Jiuzheng. However, this guy also looked confused, and he didn't seem to know this matter.

An alliance is a good thing. There is no direct conflict between the Ottoman Empire and Ming Dynasty. An alliance with such a powerful empire is beneficial and harmless to Ming Dynasty. But the problem is that they have fought with Spain and the Holy Roman Empire. I don’t know how the relationship is now. It's like this, if the hatred is as deep as the sea, then this alliance can't be concluded.

Zhu Cijiong said with a little regret: "I have no objection to the alliance, but you seem to be hostile countries to Spain and the Holy Roman Empire. This problem is a bit troublesome, because Spain is an ally of Ming Dynasty, and the Holy Roman Empire Princess Anna, the sister of His Majesty the current Emperor Ferdinand III, is my noble concubine."

What's the trouble? Suyman immediately patted his chest and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, as long as the Ming Empire and the Ottoman Empire form an alliance, I will immediately propose to our Emperor to stop military operations against Spain and the Holy Roman Empire, and even, As long as Spain and the Holy Roman Empire are willing, we can also consider forming an alliance with them!"

In his opinion, hatred is nothing, and he has never fought against Spain or the Holy Roman Empire. On the contrary, if he can bring Spain and the Holy Roman Empire, then his prestige in the Ottoman Empire will be unmatched In time, it is not impossible to even become the great prime minister who wields power alone!

This is a good idea. If it can really lead to an alliance between the Ottoman Empire and the Habsburg Dynasty, it will be even more beneficial to Daming. Zhu Cijiong heard this and nodded: "Well, if this is the case, the Ming Empire and the Ottoman Empire There is no problem with forming an alliance, I agree."

Suyman did not expect that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire would be so forthright and grant the approval so quickly. The problem is that he is not ready yet. This alliance is just a temporary idea on his part. It will take a lot of effort to return to China to facilitate this matter. His Majesty the emperor is okay, because he has some brain problems, and other cronies can't say it, what should we do?

He frowned and pondered for a while, then said awkwardly: "Well, thank you His Majesty the Emperor for your permission, but our Emperor has only succeeded to the throne not long ago, and there are still some powerful officials in the country who don't listen to him very much, so I need to go back and try my best to mediate this alliance. It will take a while to make it happen, please give me some time, His Majesty the Emperor."

Zhu Cijiong was not in a hurry about the alliance, he nodded directly and said: "Well, there is no problem, the alliance is not urgent, I haven't treated you well, why don't you travel around Daming first before going back. "

Su Yiman was still in the mood to play. After he returned, he immediately went to Xiao Jiuzheng and asked him for help. Try to find something for him that can prove the strength of the Ming Empire. He will go back to deceive the emperor and settle other cronies.

Xiao Jiuzheng did not dare to make up his own mind about this kind of thing. Soon, he ran to the palace and reported to the emperor.

Now Zhu Cijiong is stumped, what should he bring back?
A super battleship?Don't be kidding, Daming doesn't have enough for himself now. Besides, the value of a super battleship is several million taels. If you don't build dozens of ships at a time, the effect will not be achieved. The investment is too big to be worthwhile.

Muskets and artillery?It's also unrealistic. Bring a bunch of muskets and cannons back. Are you trying to rebel or something!
Weapons are not good, so you can only spend money on them. In fact, the processing level of Chongzheng Tongbao is also very high. A famous person can tell at a glance that Chongzheng Tongbao needs a high level of processing to produce it. do it.

Dragon coins are also good. The cities, battleships, trains, and bridges printed on them can all prove the prosperity of Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhu Cijiong directly ordered to prepare 100 million gold coins, 100 million silver coins, and [-] sets of exquisitely framed dragon coins for Suyman, and let him take them back to smash people. As for how to smash, that is Suyman's business .
