Chapter 17 The Prince Returns to the Country (5)
As Boyan thought, Hao Ren of Yuan Dynasty never expected Boyan to send a letter to celebrate his eldest son Hao Kang's return. As for Boyan's request for iron farm tools on credit, Hao Ren agreed without blinking. There was a region of Yuan Dynasty that contained a large amount of iron ore, which was not far from coal mines and lime mines, and there was a river connection between them. The little iron needed by the Western Roman Empire was no problem at all.
After agreeing to Boyan's request, Hao Ren continued to focus on spring plowing. In addition to busy spring plowing, Hao Ren also closely monitored the movements in the west of the Roba Plain in Eastern Europe. At least until now, the Semi people there are also busy with spring plowing and have not sent troops to come. However, this peace and fragile as a silk thread. According to judgment, the war is likely to break out in the second half of this year, that is, in 1294 of the Western calendar.
The Western Roman Empire now has 200,000 troops that can be used to fighting. Once the Yuan Kingdom goes to war with the Teutonic Knights, Hao Ren also expects his in-laws, Beyan to send troops to attack the Holy Roman Empire, and even the French region, to help the Yuan Kingdom relieve the pressure.
However, Hao Ren did not expect that the capital of the Qincha Khanate, more than a thousand miles away from him, the envoy of the Qincha Khanate who had been sent away by Hao Ren stood in front of a group of nobles of the Qincha Khanate, and told the trip to Kiev in an invigorating manner.
"...The Yuan king Hao Ren said that the escaped slaves ran into the Yuan Kingdom, causing a lot of trouble for the Yuan Kingdom. If we want sheep, we should not even think about it. The Yuan king Hao Ren also wants our Khanate to in turn to compensate Hao Ren for the cow and horses..."
The messenger's mouth was flying, describing Hao Ren's rudeness, and he felt a little nervous. Hao Ren was actually not that rude. The Khan of the Khanate of the Qincha Khanate proposed that since it takes too much manpower to capture fugitive slaves and the effect is not good, in order to save trouble for everyone, the Qincha Khanate no longer asks for fugitive slaves, but asks Hao Ren to give some compensation, and both sides will clear the two sides.
Faced with the compensation request from the Khanate of the Khanate, Hao Ren said that the Khanate of the Khanate had to propose a number, and Hao Ren would verify it and give compensation. Finally, the two parties reached an oral agreement, and each verified fugitive slave would give one male and one female and two sheep.
However, this agreement was not expected by the Khan of the Khanate. The Khan of the Khanate asked the envoy to describe Hao Ren as a person who refused to return the fugitive slaves. At this time, the purpose of the envoy's speech was to arouse the anger of the nobles.
The nobles of the Khanate were indeed angry. The cattle and horses needed to be grazed, and food needed to be collected. The houses they lived in needed to cut trees to obtain wood, and someone needed to shear wool to make felt. All this was originally done by the small tribes and the herd slaves. Now the small tribes and the herd slaves ran away, and wood and felt would not grow on their own on the empty land.
Before the messenger finished speaking, someone started to curse. He was so fierce that he even kicked the wooden table in front of him. The porcelain bowl containing horse milk on the table fell on the ground, milky white milk sprinkled all over the ground, and several lemons and citrus transported from the south also rolled on the ground. The messenger suddenly remembered what he saw and continued: "Your princes, the Yuan Dynasty has begun to plow spring. The snatchers on their side ate meat and bread, and drank thick soup made of flour. Even when they went down to the ground, they prepared large jars, and the water inside was boiled water. Removed the lemon slices from the water, and even mixed with honey. Not only that, the snatchers who went down to the ground had another citrus every day. In the past, the snatchers and snatchers could only eat grass, but now they had citrus every day."
This was not made up, but the messenger saw it with his own eyes. The climate in Eastern Europe is very cold, although it is not as cold as the kind of frozen soil that the Ross people live below three meters underground, and the excavated cellars are also cold. Lemons and citrus transported from the south, and bacon and ham marinated with salt can be stored in it for a year without breaking. Honey can be stored in the cellar for several years.
This description further aroused the anger of the nobles of the Khanate. The grassland was scarce, and berries could be eaten for a short period of time each year. Apart from this period, the Mongolians could only eat grass. The fresh grass they beat were selected and the tenderest part was eaten, while the others were fed to the livestock. As for the so-called meat eating, it was only when the animals that were more than the number of winter forage before winter came. Or when the lamb was born when there was not enough forage in early spring, the lamb was indeed delicious at this time. But this was forced, rather than killing the sheep to enjoy the deliciousness.
After the Yuan Dynasty had enough ships to transport in the Black Sea, the princes of the Qincha Khanate only had fruits to eat all year round. Thinking that the Muslim and Diegu who could only eat grass all year round actually ate the same food as the prince, the princes felt that they were greatly humiliated, and their anger was even a hundred times stronger than being insulted in person.
The fierce-hearted princes had already jumped up and shouted at the Khan of the Khanate of the Khanate Kingdom: "Khan, what are you waiting for? Let's send troops to attack the Yuan Kingdom."
"Yes. Yuan Kingdom is not allowing us to live, we must not let them go."
"The Yuan Kingdom is so rich, I will rob them of the territory of Tiemur Khan in one go to fight Qiufeng ten times. Khan, let's send troops now."
The Khan of the Khanate Kingdom looked at the noble people's reaction with satisfaction. He recalled his reaction when he first heard the news, which was even better than these noble people.
The king of the Yuan Dynasty, Hao Ren, was famous on the grassland. When Kublai Khan signed Hao Ren to Kiev Rus on the western border of the Khisat Khanate, Hao Ren's achievements in attacking Chagatai and Ogedei Khanate scared the Khan of the Khanate. However, the fact that Hao Ren built a wealthy country in Khisat Khanate, which was considered a desolate border by the Mongols, turned the fear of the Khan of the Khanate into ten times a hundred times anger. Khisat Khanate was the base of the Khanate Khanate's Khanate's Khanate's Khanate's Khanate's Khanate's Khanate's Khanate's Khanate's Khanate's base before, why could Hao Ren eat and drink there, but his supposed master survived on the cold grassland.
Seeing that these nobles were indeed in a rage, the Khan King stood up and said to these people: "Think about it, those fugitives followed Hao Ren. Hao Ren had a lot of soldiers. There were not 200,000 people, and there were always 100,000."
This sentence made some noble people silent. The grassland talked about strength. The Qincha Khanate dared to rob the territory of the Mongolian Khan. What they relied on was their strength, not some bullshit morality.
"I have sent people to contact the countries in the west. Those people in the Semu have decided to fight against the boy Hao Ren. We will endure it for a while now, as Genghis Khan said, when my strength is insufficient, I have to tolerate it and tolerate it against my will! We will now tell some of the truth of Hao Ren to the people in the west, so that they dare to fight against Hao Ren. When the boy Hao Ren's troops are fighting against the people in the west, we will take action from behind. At that time, we not only want to steal things, but also to snatch the entire Yuan Kingdom and become our paradise!"
Hearing this grand idea, the nobles of the Khanate Kingdom's eyes lit up. Many people remembered the story of Genghis Khan killing his adopted father Wang Khan and killing his sworn brothers. Only after killing his adopted father and sworn brothers did Genghis Khan accumulate his true strength.
