Chapter 212: Will you marry your daughter to our Han Emperor?
Latest website:
"The Mongols are cruel. When they ruled the Central Plains, they killed many of our Han family members. Although I despise Zhu Yuanzhang, I can still look down upon them for killing the Mongols! Zhu Yuanzhang
Kill the Mongolian barbarians and I will form an alliance with the Mongolian barbarians. This is absolutely impossible!"
Chen Youliang made his attitude clear when he came up. Zou Pusheng and Chen Youren also understood what Chen Youliang was thinking, and naturally they did not regard the Mongols as their potential allies.
What's more, the Mongols are miserable now. The Ming army has launched attacks in the grasslands and northwest direction several times. I heard that Wang Baobao has led the remaining defeated troops to retreat to the Moxi grassland area of Jinshan.
The distance between the Moxi Grassland and the Central Plains is even further. Wang Baobao Monkey may not have the opportunity to return to the Central Plains every year, and naturally there will be no use value.
"If the Mongols are not good, what about the Tibetans on the plateau?" Chen Youren then asked.
The Chen Han regime carried out several attacks in western Sichuan and dealt a heavy blow to the local Tubo people, so it is entirely possible if they can get some support from Tubo.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this suggestion, Chen Youliang shook his head like a rattle.
"The Tibetans are no good. They are just a piece of loose sand. The Tibetans in western Sichuan and the Tibetans in Uzang, Qinghai are not the same people at all. We only defeated the Tibetans in western Sichuan. The Tibetans on the plateau ignored us at all."
Chen Youliang said helplessly.
After more than a year of development, the Tubo people in western Sichuan have gradually begun to regain their strength under the rule of the Chen and Han regime. A large amount of trade has greatly improved the strength of these Tubo people.
However, the Tubo tribe on the plateau had serious conflicts with them, and the two sides continued to fight.
The chaotic situation among the various tribes in Tubo was simply a quagmire, and it was impossible for them to allocate excess troops to the Chen and Han regime.
After much calculation, Chen Youliang and others have not figured out where they can find allies to cooperate with them.
You can work with him to deal with the Ming army.
Suddenly, Chen Youren had an idea and thought of a question.
"By the way, why think too far!"
"We sent people to chase Duan Gong before, and later sent a caravan to set up spies, and got a lot of information from Tianzhu."
"Duan Gong has occupied a territory in Tianzhu, which has made the local Delhi Sultanate dissatisfied. I heard that they will launch an attack on him at any time!"
"Duan Gong has surrendered to Zhu Yuanzhang. Why don't we send someone to contact the Delhi Sultanate? I heard that the Delhi Sultanate has rich people, fertile land, and countless gold and silver treasures. If we can form an alliance with the Delhi Sultanate, we will
Opening a tea-horse road in the southwest can not only eliminate the hidden danger of Duan Gong, but also make use of the financial and material resources of the Deli Sultanate to develop our military strength."
Chen Youren's suggestion immediately made Chen Youliang's eyes light up.
It must be said that this is the first time within the Chen Han regime that such a proposal with an international perspective has been put forward.
"Tianzhu is a treasure land!"
Chen Youliang had read the Ming Dynasty Taixue textbooks secretly sent from the Ming Dynasty. Among them, the geography of the Wan Guo Zhi clearly recorded that the land called Tianzhu in ancient times was fertile and rich in products. It was only the land occupied by Duan Gong.
The output is equivalent to the total grain output of Sichuan plus Huguang.
As for the territory occupied by the Delhi Sultanate, it was nearly ten times that of Duan Gong.
You can imagine how powerful the Delhi Sultanate was.
"This is a good idea!" Zou Pusheng also agreed repeatedly.
"Not only that, I heard that there are also rich beauties there. There are many handsome men and beauties in the Delhi Sultanate. We can not only do business with them, but also marry them. The emperor's position in the palace is vacant now, so he sent someone to contact the Delhi Sultan.
country, marry their princess as the Queen of the Han Dynasty, and join forces to eliminate Duan Gong first, so that the small barbarian countries in Nanzhong will not dare to act rashly again!" Chen Youren continued.
The fact that Zhu Han led the Ming army to destroy the Annan Kingdom was a perfect show to scare the monkeys in the South Central area, which is now the Southeast Asian countries of the Indochina Peninsula.
These weak countries are extremely afraid of the Ming army, and it won't be long before they completely fall to the Ming side.
but.
If the Chen-Han regime can unite with the Delhi Sultanate to eliminate Duan Gong, it will be able to continue to deter these small Southeast Asian countries, or at least allow them to continue to be wallflowers.
It can be said that forming an alliance with the Delhi Sultanate has all the benefits and no harm.
Chen Youliang immediately agreed to this suggestion and immediately decided to send a super important minister of the Chen and Han regime to personally go to the Delhi Sultanate to form an alliance and propose marriage.
Chen Youliang's queen had just passed away due to illness not long ago, so she could give up her position to marry a beautiful girl from that day.
In the end, Chen Youren volunteered to take over this important task.
"The Tianzhu Continent is rich, but you have to see with your own eyes what the specific situation is like! It would be bad if you were deceived just by reading the books written by brother Zhu Yuanzhang!"
The Chen Youliang brothers have been eager to acquire all kinds of novel knowledge circulating in the Ming Dynasty, but they cannot tell whether much of the knowledge is true or false.
From the territory of the Chen and Han regime to the mainland of Tianzhu, there has been a great southwestern trade route since the Qin and Han Dynasties nearly two thousand years ago.
Now, after so many years of development, it is no longer just a trade route.
Even if Duan Gong occupies the middle position in the Bengal region, he must be strictly guarded against the prying eyes of Chen Han's regime.
but.
Chen Youren and the others still found a trade route that did not require passing through Bangladesh.
They first set off from Yunnan to the west, along the winding and rugged snow-capped mountains in the north, traveling through mountains and ridges and clinging to the foot of the mountains to the northwest.
Although this road is not convenient to walk, the land along it is relatively barren and there are not many commercial towns.

After nearly a month of marching, this envoy business group of nearly a thousand people led by Zeng finally arrived in the territory of the Delhi Sultanate.
With the help of translators, officials of the Delhi Sultanate quickly reported the news of this envoy business group from the east to the Delhi Sultan.
Firuz Shah, the monarch of the Delhi Sultanate, was full of interest in this strange envoy business group: "Immediately send someone to invite them to me, and I will welcome them with the most solemn etiquette!"
"The friends God gives us must be help to us!"
Firuz Shah stroked a fine porcelain vase and kept giving instructions to his officials.
This exquisite porcelain vase was sent by Chen Youren's envoy business group as an item to prove his identity.
In today's world, only China can produce exquisite porcelain.
Although some clay products can be fired in other places, at best they can only make something similar to stoneware.
Especially in the Tianzhu area, the control over the temperature of the furnace has always been very sparse. The locally fired clay objects can at most be used as water tanks in the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, all kinds of porcelain shipped from the Eastern Ming Dynasty are priceless treasures in Tianzhu, even if their quality is just ordinary goods in the Ming Dynasty.
Now the vase sent by Chen Youren not only has a beautiful shape, but also has many bright and beautiful colorful glazed pictures on it.
Although Firuz Shah of the Deli Sultanate was well-informed, he had never seen such exquisite porcelain.
This exquisite porcelain is enough to prove the authenticity of this envoy business group.
Soon after, the Han envoys led by Chen Youren arrived in Delhi, the capital of the Delhi Sultanate.
Delhi Sultan Firuz Shah sent the most elite palace guards as a guard of honor to welcome this strange envoy from the east.
The grand welcome ceremony brought all the Catholic people in Delhi to join in the fun.
There was a lot of excitement inside and outside the city. People who didn't know it thought that a grand festival of the Sultanate was coming.
Timur, who was in the Delhi Sultanate, was also shocked by the scene in front of him.
As the envoy of Western Chagatai, Timur did not receive enough assistance after forming an alliance with the Delhi Sultanate, but he still received a large amount of supplies and weapons.
It was this batch of assistance from the Delhi Sultanate that allowed the Western Chagatai Khanate to retain the Transoxiana region in the subsequent war and not be completely defeated by Wang Baobao again.
When Timur came to the Delhi Sultanate again this time, he naturally wanted to deepen the alliance between the two parties and needed more supplies.
The arrival of Chen Youren made the Sultan of Delhi very happy.
In the palace of the Delhi Sultanate, Firuz Shah held a grand banquet. The Delhi Sultanate is a religious country that believes in God, so there was naturally no wine at the banquet.
But in the magical continent of Tianzhu, except for wine, everything else can be freely obtained by these Tianfang Sect conquerors.
All the utensils used at this banquet prepared by the Sultan of Delhi were made of gold and silver.
There were more than 600 Tianzhu dancers preparing to sing and dance, and there were more jugglers. Nearly a thousand people dedicated their unique skills at the palace of the Delhi Sultanate.
All the foreign envoys of the Sultan in Delhi were invited to this grand banquet.
Timur was naturally among them.
Chen Youren presented the letter of credence written by the Han Emperor Chen Youliang to Sultan Firuz Shah of Delhi.
Firuz Shah did not hesitate to agree with the contents.
"That exile Duan Gong is a robber and thief. He stole the land given to us by Allah. My brave warriors have long wanted to cut him into pieces!"
"As for the Ming Dynasty behind Duan Gong, I heard that it killed many people of Allah, and it must be the incarnation of evil and devil."
"We both have a common enemy, which will inevitably lead to an unbreakable alliance!"
"I would like to drink this glass of pure water with your emperor and conclude our alliance!"
Firuz Shah skillfully quoted verses from the Koran and made an oath of alliance with Chen Youren at the banquet.
Chen Youren was very happy with this result.
Along the way, Chen Youren was inspired by the scenes he saw in the Delhi Sultanate.
The Delhi Sultanate has a vast territory, almost equivalent to most of the Central Plains, and is full of fertile land and rivers.
Moreover, the climate here is warm. According to solar terms, it has just been early spring in the Central Plains.
Early spring generally brings cold temperatures and even occasional snowfall.
But in the Delhi Sultanate, it was already very hot.
The various types of rice grown in the fields present a prosperous harvest scene.
This shows that the Delhi Sultanate is like spring all year round and food can be grown all year round.
Having food means that the country is strong.
Chen Youren was very happy that he had roped in a powerful ally.
actually.
In the mind of Delhi Sultan Firuz Shah, he did not regard the Ming Dynasty behind Duan Gong as his real enemy. Firuz Shah was not the kind of arrogant frog in the well. He had heard about the power of the Eastern Ming Dynasty from many businessmen.
Rich.
He formed an alliance with Chen Youren. In addition to dealing with the common enemy Duan Gong, he also hoped that the Chen-Han regime could provide him with sufficient supplies, such as these exquisite porcelain, silk, tea, etc...
For Dongfang and Tianzhu, this is an alliance that spans the ages.
Firuz Shah couldn't wait to understand the situation in the East and find the most beneficial way of cooperation for him.
Chen Youren did not hesitate to agree to his subsequent request for marriage.
"Because of the blessing of Allah, I have eighteen daughters, eight of whom are not yet married. According to our teachings, if your emperor is willing to convert to Allah and become brothers of the same religion with me, I am willing to give the best of them to
All four of his daughters will marry your emperor!" Firuz Shah said with a kind face.
As a devout believer in Allah, Firuz Shah always wants to expand the influence of Allah and win over more lost lambs to Christianity.
When Firuz Shah heard that the emperor of the East was a disbeliever, he immediately wanted to use his talents of tongue to spread the glory of God to the distant east.
"We in the Han Dynasty also have Tianfang Sect spread like yours. Our emperor does not stop doing business and preaching, but if I want to join your sect, I am afraid it will violate the teachings of our ancestor Maitreya!" Chen Youren said quickly.
These Tianfang believers are all fanatical religious elements. Chen Youren has long been dissatisfied with this religion, so naturally he refuses to join the religion.
Maitreya Patriarch of the Red Scarf Army was pulled out by Chen Youren as a shield.
Firuz Shah was already satisfied with the alliance between the two parties. At this time, it was just a casual talk to win over the believers. Whether it was successful or not would not affect their alliance.
"Then I will marry one of my daughters to your emperor. In order to consolidate our alliance, your emperor can also marry one of his daughters to me. I can make this oriental princess the master of my harem!" Felu!
Zisha said with a sincere face.
Chen Youren was extremely surprised when he heard this request.
"Your Majesty the Sultan, what you just said was that you would marry your daughter to our Han emperor, and then you yourself want to win the Han princess?" Chen Youren couldn't believe it and asked again quickly.
After receiving a positive answer, Chen Youren did not hesitate to find an excuse and rejected the request.
"The princess of the Han Dynasty is too young. She is only three or four years old this year. I am afraid she is not suitable to marry here!" Chen Youren said.
Although Chen Youren was born in a poor family and had no stomach and had to eat many meals, he had heard a lot about Chinese etiquette and shame.
There is no such truth in the world!
You treat me as my son-in-law, and I also treat you as your son-in-law?
If this mess continues, the relationship between the family will be messed up.
