Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1371, became a legend

Moscow City, with its tall city walls and huge city gates, as the news spread, a large number of Muscovites gathered at the gates of the city, wanting to see those Ming people from the far east.

Even Grand Duke Vasily III of the Principality of Moscow brought many nobles and ministers to the gate of the city, wanting to see the Ming people as soon as possible.

There have been too many and too many legends about the Ming Empire, but most of them are the porcelain used by the nobles for meals, the porcelain vases placed in the house, the silk on their bodies, exquisite glassware, etc. These expensive things and many The Ming Empire as described after those who went to the Ming Empire returned.

As for the real contact with the people of the Ming Empire, it is still very, very rare. Few people have contact with the people of the Ming Dynasty, so they are full of curiosity about the people of the Ming Dynasty.

"Grand Duke, they are not the envoys of the Ming Empire, why do we have to greet them with such shrouded etiquette?"

Beside Vasily III, there were ministers looking at the mighty and dense crowd in front of them. Almost all the nobles and ministers in Moscow came out.

This minister didn't quite understand that these Ming people killed dozens of their own soldiers, not only did they not receive any punishment, but they even used a grand ceremony to welcome these Ming people. The key is that their identities are only bodyguards of the Escort Bureau. , not from the government of the Ming Empire.

"Because we need to have a good relationship with the Ming Empire."

Vasily III looked at the road ahead, and could vaguely see a bright yellow flag fluttering high, with a long snake-like thing on it. It was said that this was the dragon most admired by the Ming people.

"Come~Come~"

I don't know who yelled, and all the people who were discussing non-stop looked at the road ahead in unison, and saw the flying dragon flag becoming more and more clear. Under the flying dragon flag, a Moscow Principality cavalry Escorted, more than a dozen Daming people in uniforms were slowly walking towards Moscow.

"My lord, everything has been clarified."

"These Daming people are all bodyguards of a bodyguard agency, and this time they are also escorting two people from our Principality of Moscow back to Moscow."

"These two people, one named Alexei, used to be a nobleman. He was captured by the Tatars in a battle with the Tatars. He was sold as slaves to the Ming people, and then he was sold to Tianzhu, a Ming Dynasty. The Daming Kingdom called Ningguo."

"Two years ago, Ningguo attacked the Afghans in North Tianzhu. This Alexei was incorporated into the slave army. Because of his bravery in battle and many meritorious deeds, he was finally restored to freedom and was rewarded with a large amount of land, slaves and wealth. .”

"When I came back this time, it is said that I will find my relatives and take them back to Ningguo to settle here."

"The other one, Andre, used to be a serf. He has a similar experience to Alexei's. He is also planning to come back to find his relatives, and take him back to Ningguo to settle here."

General Pskov came to the gate of Moscow first and reported the situation to Vasily III in detail.

"It's interesting, you actually made a breakthrough here in the Ming Empire."

After listening carefully, Vasily III also laughed.

I don't know how many Slavs have been trafficked. Alexei and Andrei can almost be regarded as legends. I don't know how difficult it is for these slaves to turn over. Not only did they turn over, but they also got Ningguo. a certain status.

When General Pskov reported to Vasily III in detail, Alexei, Andrei, Zhang Wei and others also came to Moscow.

Zhang Wei looked at the densely packed crowd on both sides of the road, feeling a little confused.

These people knew at a glance that they must be nobles from the Principality of Moscow. They were all dressed luxuriously, which was completely different from the serfs they saw along the way.

Of course, the most important thing is the smell of perfume. Even if it is some distance away, there is a strong smell of perfume mixed with dizzying body odor and stench blowing over with gusts of wind, so that Zhang Wei, who was riding a horse, I couldn't help but want to spit it out.

I have traveled to many places, visited many big cities in Europe, and met many nobles and upper-class people in Europe. I can't bear the smell of them not bathing and wearing perfume, and their different smells mixed together.

Look at the city of Moscow in front of you again. The city walls are tall and pointed domes stand one after another. The Italian Byzantine style is oncoming, and the atmosphere of art and religion is extremely strong.

"The building is extremely beautiful, and it is different from many barbarian places."

Zhang Wei gave his own evaluation.

After traveling all over the world for many years, I have been to many places, but there are not many places that can truly be regarded as civilized. Most of the world is in a barren land, and the level of civilization development in a place can be roughly known only from the buildings in various places.

"These are Daming people?"

"The clothes they wear are really strange."

"Also, are these Daming people women? Why don't they have beards, and why are their hair cut very short."

"Their clothes look really good, but they are exactly the same."

At the gate of the city, many Moscow nobles were also staring at Zhang Wei and others, and at the same time they were discussing non-stop.

"They all look very heroic and extraordinary. I like men like this the most, but I don't know what they will look like in bed?"

"You'll know if you try it. Isn't there a banquet tonight? With your charm, you won't be able to make the other party bow down to you easily?"

"Try, of course I have to try. I heard that these Ming people swept the world and wiped out many powerful countries one after another. They really look very powerful."

Some noble ladies looked at Zhang Wei and the others and whispered, the Principality of Moscow is similar to other European countries, and it is even more common for nobles to have such a mess.

"Although there are only a dozen or so riders, the momentum it gives people is like a thousand troops, which is really terrifying."

"Yeah, this momentum is not simple. You can imagine how powerful the Ming army is. No wonder it can sweep all directions."

"Also, their equipment is extremely sophisticated. You see, all of them are wearing armor, steel helmets, muskets on their backs, bows, arrows, and swords. Even our most elite troops are far away from this equipment." It can't be achieved, it is said that this is the standard preparation of the army of the Ming Empire."

"It's no wonder that the Ottoman Empire we were able to fight is full of teeth~"

"..."

Vasily III carefully observed Zhang Wei and others, he knew more than ordinary people.

The dozen or so Ming people in front of them were retired soldiers from the Ming army, and they only had a dozen or so cavalry, but within a very short period of time, they killed dozens of cavalry on their side without any damage.

What a terrible thing this is, the gap between the two sides is really too big.

"It is said that the Ming Empire has [-] cavalry alone, and the preparation of each cavalry is even better than the preparation of these Ming people."

"If I have [-] such elite cavalry, no, I don't need [-], [-] is enough. Why can't I destroy the Tatars, and why can't I beat the Poles and Lithuanians?"

Vasily III clenched his fists, he longed to have a powerful army that could sweep the armies in all directions.

"Welcome home, brave Slav warrior~"

"Welcome to our Moscow, friends from the far east~"

Soon, Alexei, Andre, Zhang Wei and others came to the gate of the city, and Vasily III welcomed them with a smile.

"His Majesty the Grand Duke, I am really flattered by you. I never expected to be welcomed by you."

Alexei and Andre knelt down in front of Vasily III and said in fear.

As for Zhang Wei and the others, they saluted Vasily III in unison and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your welcome~"

"Haha, today is really a very happy day. I am very glad to meet you. I have ordered someone to prepare a banquet, and I would like to invite everyone to attend."

Vasily III was very happy and took everyone to the banquet hall.

In the huge palace hall, the band was playing brisk music. Many nobles and ministers of the Principality of Moscow brought their wives to sing and dance in the hall, talking and laughing with each other, while drinking and enjoying food. It was also talking about many things about Daming, Alexei, and Andrei.

At this moment, Alexei, Andre, Zhang Wei and others became the focus of the banquet. Many nobles and ministers from the Principality of Moscow gathered around everyone. Everyone was like a curious baby, constantly asking questions one after another.

"Mr. Alexei, can you tell us about the situation in the Ming Empire?"

"Yes, yes, I heard that the people of Daming are extremely rich, and there is gold everywhere."

"Well, the Ming Empire is very vast. This is the most common map inside the Ming Empire. Please see, this is our Principality of Moscow, this is Crimea, this is the Ottoman Empire, and this is Italy. From here to the Caucasus, and then to the east, the entire vast territory belongs to the Ming Empire."

"But this is only part of the territory of the Ming Empire. Overseas, the Ming Empire has a wider territory. The entire Golden Continent and Australia are under the jurisdiction of the Ming Empire. In Africa, Tianzhu, and Arabia, the Ming Empire also has A large number of colonies and vassal states."

"The Ming Empire is extremely rich. It's true. Even the slaves of the Ming people have to eat three meals a day. Every meal is full, and sometimes there is meat."

"However, the Ming Empire is not full of gold everywhere. The place with the most gold is the Golden Continent..."

Alexei looked at the pairs of eyes around him, and didn't know where to start. Looking at Zhang Wei, he was surrounded by a group of ladies and young girls.
