Chapter 940 Qilin
At this moment, envoys from all over the world entered Persia, including the envoys from Tsarist Russia.

Needless to say, everything that Mustafa, the envoy of the Ottoman Empire, saw and was shocked by, was re-experienced by these new envoys.

Even because the imperial examination system was announced at this time, free reading, etc., the most popular topics, the messengers from all walks of life understood clearly even if they didn't want to hear it.

Generally speaking, the various envoys represent local dignitaries. They are local upper-class people and beneficiaries of benefits. They may not be too interested in the imperial examination system.However, the entourage brought by these envoys was different.

If possible, who would not want to go up!Even if I can't do it myself, what about my son and grandson!If they live in Daming and can go to school, what if they can get ahead?

Another point is that the Persian people burst into vitality because of the Ming Dynasty's New Deal.Their spiritual outlook will also infect them.

In short, many of the followers of the envoys from all walks of life are tempted and yearn to become a member of the Ming Dynasty.

The same is true, when they entered the territory of Persia and marched all the way to Zhennan City, they behaved extremely well-behaved!

………………

Lu Xiangsheng was very busy. At the beginning, when he heard that a certain tribe was coming to see the Emperor of Ming Dynasty and wanted to be a vassal of Ming Dynasty and pay tribute to Daming, he didn't think much about it.After all, for Daming, whether it was before or now, there are vassal states.

However, later on, when more and more envoys came, he finally started to face it squarely.

After all, Lu Xiangsheng liked the occurrence of this situation.Since ancient times, when all nations come to court, it is only when the Holy Son of Heaven is in court and Ming Dynasty is strong.In particular, there are some tribal countries, which I have never heard of before.This means that the power of Ming Dynasty has spread to farther places, conquering the four barbarians.

Among them, Tsarist Russia was mentioned by Emperor Chongzhen.This is from a big country.

Lu Xiangsheng did not expect that the attitude of the Tsarist Russian envoys was much more humble than that of other tribal envoys.Not only was the list of tributes much richer than others, they even went around talking about it, including the officials of the Ming Dynasty who pulled the station to pull relatives, saying that their ancestors also came from the east.

This made Lu Xiangsheng very speechless. Their ancestors were Mongols, but our Ming Dynasty established our country by expelling the Tartars. Don’t they know?

Seeing all kinds of envoys is a bit too much, this matter must be decided by the emperor himself.After thinking about it, Lu Xiangsheng decided to take them west to meet Emperor Chongzhen.Because he has been busy for so long, it is time to report to the emperor.

So Lu Xiangsheng set off with all the envoys.

He didn't know that although these envoys all wanted to surrender to Daming, they also had eyes watching, watching the strength of the Ming army in Persia.In this regard, they are different from their followers.

Of course, this does not mean that they will not surrender.They voted because of Da Ming's strength, and their sincerity was directly proportional to Da Ming's strength.If Da Ming is not as powerful as they imagined, then of course he will have less surrender.There may be different choices for the orders that Daming will give them in the future.

All the way to Persia and then to Zhennan City, they really couldn't see a lot of difference.In addition, I also saw the situation of military defenses in various places.

To be honest, these messengers were a bit disdainful of the defenses of the towns and cities throughout Persia.Or simply put, many cities and towns in the Ming Dynasty were undefended.

Moreover, there are very few young people working in the fields.Of course they understand that this is the reason for previous military disasters.

But this shows that if anyone can defeat the Ming army on the border, then Persia will be a big piece of fat.

Many envoys thought so in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it.No matter what, the Ming army wiped out the Mughal Empire and the Persian Empire one after another, and even wiped out more than [-] Ottoman troops.

Powerful, there is no doubt about it!

But how powerful is it?These messengers are still very curious.Now the Persian governor of the Ming Dynasty took them to the border to meet the Ming Emperor, and they wanted to see with their own eyes how powerful the Ming Dynasty was!
In addition, they were also very happy to see the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.Because most of them have heard that the Ming emperor was very generous to his courtiers.There are a lot of things prepared this time, so the rewards should be very rich, right?

………………

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen didn't know about this, and he was not the roundworm in the stomachs of these envoys.Besides, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.Because in his eyes, it was all scum!

Now he has been in Bitlis for some time.The Ottoman army is gathering more and more, and it will exceed 25.It is impossible to accommodate so many troops in the city of Bitlis, and there are everywhere outside the city. Judging from the momentum, it is very spectacular.

However, on Daming's side, Emperor Chongzhen currently has more than 5000 cavalry troops and nearly [-] infantry troops, making a total of about [-].

It stands to reason that there is a huge difference in the strength of the two sides.It should be that the Ming army is on the defensive and the Ottoman army is on the offensive.

But in fact, the ones who are arrogant in the wild are the Cossack soldiers of the Ming army.

There is no other reason, but the Ming army's great reputation frightened them.

During this period of time, Emperor Chongzhen had sowed at least twenty Class C wiretapping seeds.Therefore, it can be said that he knows the situation of the Ottoman army in Bitlis better than anyone else.

Don't look at the huge number of the Ottoman army. In fact, there are only about [-] standing troops, which is comparable to the Ming army.The others are motley crews, or temporarily recruited herdsmen, farmers, and so on.Even simply, counting those folks who transport logistics, they want to rely on their numbers to strengthen their prestige.

If you say that you don't know their actual situation, then you may really be intimidated by their trick.

However, for Emperor Chongzhen, he was just right!

Those who fight from the perspective of God, please understand!

Emperor Chongzhen knew that Lu Xiangsheng was already on his way here.He also knew that those envoys followed Lu Xiangsheng.

Originally, he already knew the weakness of the Ottoman army in Bitlis through the wiretapping system, so he wanted to start.But then I thought about it, well, wait a minute, the audience is here, I have to treat them to a show!

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen stopped fighting for the time being, but began to consider capturing these Ottoman captives for infrastructure construction.That's right, it is necessary to engage in infrastructure construction in Persia, otherwise, I'm sorry for the reputation of future generations!

But with so many people, no matter what, they are not robots, and the food consumption will definitely be huge.If it was before, it seems that they can only kill more.But now, someone is sending food, so they can catch more prisoners.

Just thinking about it, planning, waiting and waiting, finally, on this day, Lu Xiangsheng and his group arrived.

Not to mention how excited Lu Xiangsheng was to see Emperor Chongzhen again after several years, but to talk about the envoys from all walks of life, they saw that the Ming army only had about [-] people, but there were mountains and plains on the opposite side. In short, as long as they could see, they were all flags of the Ottoman army. , they were stunned.

The first thought was whether it would be too dangerous in the Ming army. If there was a fight, Chi Yu would definitely be affected!

But then, they discovered that outside the barracks, there were soldiers of the Ming army galloping around, and the scouts of the Ottoman army would not leave the camp. If they did, they would definitely be several times the number of the Ming army. Only the number of people dare to come out.That's it, the Ming army is still suppressing and beating.

It's not that there is too much difference in the elite level of the two sides in the war. After all, they are all scouts who don't accept them at night. They are all good players selected from the army.The reason why the envoys from all walks of life felt this way was because the morale of the Ming army was high and their fighting spirit was high, and Ottoman's scouts were obviously unwilling to work hard, so it gave people the impression that the Ming army was fighting against the Ottoman army.

On the next day, after they probably had a better understanding of the situation in Bitlis, Emperor Chongzhen issued an order for them to have an audience.

Few of the envoys dared to raise their heads to look at the famous Emperor Ming, at most they would take a sneak peek, and that was all under great pressure.

After seeing the ceremony, the envoys from all walks of life presented their list of tribute items one by one, and at the same time introduced how good these tribute items are!
It seems that during the Yongle period, some tribes presented a giraffe to Emperor Yongle, saying that it was a unicorn, which made Emperor Yongle very happy, auspicious!

However, the insight of Emperor Chongzhen was not comparable to that of Emperor Yongle.Really speaking, in this era, in terms of knowledge, no one dares to say number one when he says number two.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about their so-called rare treasures, how many good things they had.

At the beginning, he listened patiently, but after he heard it, he stopped directly and said to the envoys below: "If you really want to surrender and be protected by Daming, then come over with tribute. How big is it?" Your sincerity depends on how much you pay!"

"..." Hearing this, the envoys were a little dumbfounded.

In troubled times, food and grass are very precious.However, for the Ming emperor, this is the most common thing, so he shouldn't ask Pan Bang for it, right?
The emperor of Ming Dynasty was rich all over the world, so shouldn't he be more rare in some strange things.Then in order to show Daming's wealth, give them something?
I heard that the former emperor of Ming Dynasty was very generous!

Why does the Ming emperor in front of him want food and grass? There should be no shortage of food and grass in the army?Aren't they all piled up in the back camp?

Emperor Chongzhen saw their doubts and depression, so he said lightly: "I will destroy the enemy in front of me tomorrow, and I will have many prisoners. Right now, I still need some food. After this point, I will not need it."

The implication is that your sincerity will be effective during this period of time.
