Chapter 1487, Revenge of the Persian Empire
In Bolsh Harbor on the northern shore of the Persian Gulf, a large ship was moored quietly next to the pier, and a large army was neatly lined up on the pier next to it, waiting for the ship to go to Africa to regain the honor of the Persian Empire.

Here in the center of the port, Ismail I is conducting a farewell ceremony for these soldiers who are about to leave for Africa at this moment. The solemn and majestic and ancient Persian howls come and go, one after another, as if bringing people back to the ancient Persian empire. The glory days of the Three Continents.

"Great Persian warriors, take up the swords in your hands, wash away our shame with blood, and send all the enemies to Hell with artillery fire!"

The voice of the young Ismail I was very contagious, loud and clear to the ears of everyone present, which made the Persian soldiers present very excited.

Beside Ismayi I, his teacher Charland was carefully watching the powerful team in front of him.

The Imperial Guards of the Persian Empire are all organized and trained by the Ming Empire. They are the ace force in the hands of the Persian Empire. All the weapons and equipment used are purchased from the Ming Empire.

Although the Hongzhi Sixteen Musket is still a smoothbore gun, it has a long range, fast rate of fire, and high precision. With a special bayonet and a long barrel, it can be like a long gun even in close combat, just like an ancient gun. It was like the pikemen who swept across the Quartet during the Roman Empire.

In addition to muskets, he also bought hundreds of Miyun cannons. Even though he couldn't buy the most desired explosive ammunition, the dozens of Miyun cannons were still extremely terrifying.

It has a long range, a fast rate of fire, and great power, which is far more advanced than the artillery made by the Persians themselves.

In addition to muskets and cannons, even the clothes and helmets of the imperial guards in front of them were specially made from the Ming Empire, referring to the clothes and helmets of the Ming Empire's military.

The effect is naturally strong. These soldiers look very energetic one by one. When they are lined up neatly, a powerful aura emerges spontaneously, which makes people applaud.

"Mr. Chen, how do you think our army compares with your Ming Empire's army?"

Charland looked at the army in front of him, and asked a man wearing a Ming military uniform beside him.

Chen Tianci, a retired officer of the Ming Army, was employed by the Persian Empire, and he trained the Persian Empire force in front of him.

"Although it can't be compared with the lions of our Great Ming Empire, it is enough to sweep the armies of other countries in the world."

Chen Tianci said confidently.

Regarding the combat effectiveness of the army in front of him, he thinks it is still possible.

Not only is it equipped with the excellent weapons of the Ming Dynasty, but even the training is similar to that of the army of the Ming Empire. It is a new army modeled after the army of the Ming Dynasty.

My subordinates have also been training for nearly a year, although there is still a lack of time, the training in traditional riding and shooting and cold weapon combat is far inferior to that of the Ming army.

But this is an era of firearms, and cold weapons will become vulnerable to firearms and cannons. Insufficient training in this area will not have much impact.

Of course, the requirements of the Ming Empire will definitely be stricter, and there are extremely strict training and requirements for all aspects of cold weapon warfare. After all, this is an era when cold weapons have not really withdrawn from the stage of history.

"With Mr. Chen's words, I feel relieved."

"I don't expect to be able to compare with the lions of the Ming Empire. An army that can sweep other countries in the world is enough."

Charland nodded in satisfaction.

Regarding the army of the Ming Empire, the whole world knows how terrible the army of the Ming Empire is.

The Persian Empire did nothing more than create a new army of [-] people, equipped with muskets and cannons from the Ming Empire, but the Ming Empire had millions of such troops.

In addition, in the seas around the world, the Ming Empire has a huge fleet, and the Persians still need to rely on Ming's trading companies to transport this army to West Africa.

The warships of the Persian Empire are still in the shipyard of the Ming people, but the Persian Empire can't wait anymore, they must pour their anger on the Spaniards.

I can't beat you Spaniards at sea, so I will take your Spanish colonial strongholds one by one on land.

As exchanges between different parts of the world become more and more frequent, everyone's understanding of Europe is getting deeper and deeper. The Spaniards seem to be powerful, but in fact the population is too small, only a few hundred people in Spain.

Not to mention the comparison with the Ming Empire, even the Persian Empire has a population several times larger than the Persian Empire. The Spaniards are strong because they have strong sea power, and land power has never been strong. The power is not good, but the land power is considered to be not weak.

"Great Persian warriors!"

"Take up the swords in your hands and restore the glory of our ancestors!"

Ismail I's passion was full of contagion, and after he finished his mobilization, the mighty army quickly started to board the ship in a neat line, ready to go to West Africa.

"Woo~"

The howling sounded continuously in the port, and here and there, the army was boarding the ship in an orderly manner.

Large ships flying the flag of the Ming Empire began to raise their sails, preparing to leave Bolsh Harbor, and then went south from the Persian Gulf along the coast of East Africa, bypassing South Africa and heading for West Africa.

"Mr. Li, I heard that the storm here in South Africa's Cape of Storms is extremely terrible. Ships have accidents here every year. I hope my soldiers can reach Cambyses in West Africa safely."

Ismail I watched his soldiers board the ship, and then said to a Ming man beside him.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, since our Four Seas Trading Company dares to accept your business, we naturally have enough strength to complete this order."

When Li Jing heard this, he immediately said very confidently.

Li Jing is the general manager of Sihai Commercial Bank in the Indian Ocean region, and Sihai Commercial Bank is one of the most powerful commercial firms in Ming Dynasty. Not only does it have a large number of offices all over the world, it even has its own colonies and colonies overseas. Army, there are colonies belonging to the Four Seas Trading Company in East Africa and West Africa.

"The ships used to transport your country's Ming Dynasty this time are all Hongzhi [-]-type large ships designed and built by Tianjin Shipyard. The ships are huge and very strong. Even if they encounter strong winds and waves, there will be no problems at all."

"Moreover, the ships of our Four Seas Trading Company often travel between West Africa and East Africa. They have extremely rich sailing experience and have a good understanding of the South African storm area."

"In addition, our Four Seas Trading Company has a very good relationship with the South African Colonial Trading Company. We can get timely help in South Africa. If the storm is really too big, we can also take a rest in South Africa and wait until the storm becomes smaller. pass."

"As for the attacks of pirates and Spaniards, there is no need to worry. The ships of our Ming Empire would not dare to attack us even if they had ten guts."

Li Jing looked very confident.

The order in front of him was a big one. The Four Seas Trading Company offered a sky-high price of one million taels of silver just for transporting [-] soldiers from the Persian Empire to Cambyses in West Africa.

However, the Persians who don't have their own ships can only recognize them by holding their noses. After all, the reputation of the Daming people is still trustworthy. The business of the Four Seas Trading Company is also spread all over the world, and it also has a lot of trade with Persia.

In addition, if you want to find a trading company that can confidently and safely transport your soldiers to West Africa, there are not many in the entire Ming Dynasty, and the prices of other trading companies are more expensive than the Four Seas Trading Company.

The shipping fee of a million taels of silver is extremely profitable for the Four Seas Trading Company. On this way to West Africa, there are offices of the Four Seas Trading Company everywhere. There are also colonies of the Four Seas Trading Company in East Africa. It can be said that it is very safe, even if it is necessary The food from the Four Seas Trading Company can be purchased at a very cheap price, and its own colony also has output.

In terms of follow-up, as long as the cooperation this time goes well, the Persians who do not have their own ships still need to use ships in many places, and there will be a lot of voices to do by then.

Transport food, weapons, etc. to the Persians, and you can earn a lot, a lot of money casually.

It's just that the Persians are too poor, and they don't have enough gold and silver to pay for the freight, and they need to pay in installments. Although there is interest, they are not comfortable with the silver they get.

However, no matter the debt, the Four Seas Trading Company has obtained the limited trading rights of the Persian colonies. In the future, the slaves, ivory, jewelry, etc. produced by the Persian colonies in West Africa can be traded preferentially by the Four Seas Trading Company at the same price. , the Persians must be sold to the Universal Trading Company first.

"That's fine~"

Ismail I nodded in satisfaction when he heard Li Jing's answer.

The reason why he chose to cooperate with the Four Seas Trading Company is also very helpless. Who told the Persians not to have their own large ships? Although he has ordered the construction of shipyards, learned the technology of manufacturing, and strived to manufacture his own large ships at sea in the future, but the shipbuilding Things take time and accumulation, and cannot be done overnight.

Right now, I can only rely on these Daming people, and it is fortunate that there is also a Daming firm that can do such a thing, although the price is really expensive, and the shipping fee alone will cost millions of taels of silver.

But at any rate, you can transport your own army to West Africa, otherwise, even if the Persians have great skills and great anger, they will have no way to retaliate against the Spaniards who are thousands of miles away.

"The Great Ming Empire~"

"When will our Persian Empire be as powerful as the Ming Empire!"

Ismail I couldn't help shouting in his heart, just for such a small matter, he could feel the strength of the Ming Empire, just a small business house, he could dispatch dozens of ships at will Big ships, but what about the Persian Empire?
