Han Du's words made the air in the entire banquet hall freeze with ice. When others heard Hader's confession, their eyes looked at Han Du with sympathy, "Is he crazy? Timur Khan is a great generation." Overlord, isn’t he afraid of offending the Timurids by provoking them in front of them like this?”
"What are you talking about to offend? You open your mouth and shut up to kill the other country's leader. This is an unrelenting hatred!"
...
Tare looked at Han Du, his face turning blue and white. He has never encountered such a shame and humiliation. If someone else, even if he is not his opponent, would bravely step forward and fight with his life, washing away the humiliation with blood. Even if he dies unfortunately, the Timur Empire will definitely find justice for him.
But facing Han Du, he didn't dare to make the slightest mistake. First of all, even if he broke up with Han Du, he would not dare to bare his teeth at Han Du. Others may not know the news that the Ming Dynasty has a very powerful firearm, but the Timur Empire has spies entering the Ming Dynasty all the time, so they still know it.
Tare glanced at Handu's waist. When he saw a leather box, his eyes immediately lowered. Since Han Du was carrying that mysterious firearm, if he dared to draw his sword at Han Du, Han Du would definitely kill him on the spot without hesitation. Although Tare was born as a personal guard and was very brave, he was not sure that he could be an opponent holding the mysterious firearm Handu.
As for whether the Timur Empire will avenge him, that is even more impossible!
Even if Han Du killed him, the Timur Empire not only did not dare to accuse Ming Dynasty, but Ming Dynasty even wanted to accuse him in turn. Just like Hurumos did not dare to offend the Timurid Empire, the Timurid Empire did not dare to offend the Ming Dynasty.
Ta Lei was frightened. He swallowed Han Du's humiliation forcibly, bowed his head and said, "Ta Lei will bring it to the Khan if you want to speak to the Marquis of Zhenhai. I also ask the Marquis to go to the post when you have free time." The Mur Empire is a guest. Tare believes that the Great Khan will be very happy and will entertain the Marquis well."
Tare knew that the Great Khan would never venture into the Ming Dynasty again, and he could only swallow his anger in the face of Han Du's provocation. But he also said that he was unwilling to give in. He did not dare to enter Timur's empire even if he blocked Handu.
Han Du nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I will go if I have the chance."
It was impossible for Han Du to lose his momentum at this time. Even if he knew that Ta Lei was provoking, Han Du nodded and agreed without hesitation. And unlike Tare's guess, Handu really thought about going to the Timur Empire. It's just that he is not going to be a guest, but going with an army.
The Timur Empire cut off the Silk Road and colluded with the tribes of the grasslands. If one day the Ming Dynasty wants to clear the grasslands and reopen the Silk Road, it will inevitably confront the Timurid Empire.
Such a battle is almost inevitable.
"When the time comes, you have to tell Timur to come and greet me as soon as possible!" Han Du reached out and patted Tare twice on the face.
In public, Han Du's humiliating behavior made Tare's face turn red.
Tare stared at Han Du fiercely, as if he was about to jump into a rage at the next moment.
Even the people watching the show held their breath, everyone was waiting for the moment when the world collapsed.
But after a while, Ta Lei suddenly let out a sigh of relief, with a smile that was uglier than crying: "Don't worry, Mr. Marquis, Ta Lei will definitely convey it to you."
Is this the end?
The banquet hall was filled with almost all the high-ranking people from Horumos, but Tare, who couldn't even afford to offend them, or even didn't want to offend them, actually tolerated it in front of these Orientals?
You must know that when Tare was communicating with them in the past, the most common thing he said was, 'The Timurid Empire's army is approaching...kill your whole family...'
Such an arrogant Tare, when had he ever suffered such a loss?
And what is the origin of Handu, who was able to humiliate Tare in person and openly and silently wanted to kill the great Khan Tamerlane, and also personally humiliated him?
What do these Easterners have to rely on?
"Where did these people from the mysterious East come from?" Lord Khrumos took a deep breath and asked a question that didn't match the preface and the follower.
It was such confusing words, but Harder heard them clearly and clearly. He lowered his head and said, "I only know that the country they come from is called the Ming Empire."
Ming Empire!
After everyone heard it, they all firmly remembered the name they heard for the first time. It's impossible not to remember that no one dares to provoke the Timur Empire alone. But looking at Tare now, the Ming Empire and even the Timur Empire are not willing to offend easily.
"This Ming Empire is very powerful?" Although the city lord had already guessed it, he still couldn't help but ask.
Hader smiled bitterly and said: "Originally, I didn't think the Ming Empire could be that powerful. After all, the rumors were too exaggerated. But now it seems that the rumors I heard before are all true."
Shaking his head, Hard calmed down his mood, and in the longing eyes of the city lord and others, he slowly said: "It is rumored that the Ming Empire is the only empire in the East and also the most powerful empire. According to the people of Ming Dynasty, Ming Dynasty The territory of the empire stretches 15,000 miles from east to west, and 13,000 miles from south to north. It has a population of 60 to 70 million, and a regular army of more than one million..."
Although people like Khrumos didn't understand how long a mile was in the Ming Dynasty, when they heard that it had a population of six to seventy million and an army of more than one million, their expressions instantly became dull.
All the soldiers in Khrumos City, including the sailors, were only close to ten thousand people. The Ming Dynasty actually had an army of millions, which simply exceeded everyone's imagination.
The reason why Hader didn't believe it at first was because such an empire was so powerful that he simply didn't believe there was such a powerful empire in the world.
But now that they see Tare's performance, no one can disbelieve it anymore.
The Ming Empire must be the strongest empire they know in the world.
Originally, the power of Timur's empire was enough to frighten the people of Horumos. Since its establishment, the Timurid Empire began to expand crazily, first dominating the river, and then attacking Persia, occupying a large area of land, and even the two river basins fell into the hands of the Timurid Empire. The originally powerful Persian Empire was now forced to hide aside and survive.
It was precisely because of the decline of the Persian Empire that people like the Lord of Khrumos dared to be blatantly independent and no longer obeyed the orders of the Persian Empire.
Then the Timurid Empire went north to attack the Kipchak Khanate, directly destroying its capital Sarai Bakr and other cities, and ruled Armenia and the South Caucasus. This is what happened just now. After defeating the Kipchak Khanate, the Timur Empire's prestige here reached its peak.
Suddenly, the Lord of Khrumos and others suddenly thought that the Timurid Empire had launched attacks almost to the south, west, and north, and had achieved great victories in all of them. But there is not even the slightest movement from Timur's empire in the east. What's going on?
Originally, everyone thought that there was nothing in the east of the Timur Empire, which prevented them from attacking. But now it seems that it is because the Timur Empire is deeply afraid of the Ming Dynasty and does not dare to easily provoke the Ming Empire.
After understanding the power and prestige of the Ming Empire, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Han Du and others. I originally thought that Han Du and others were just some wealthy businessmen, but now it seems that these people are simply lions disguised as harmless rabbits!
When Han Du saw that he was so provocative, Tare tolerated it one by one. I kept complaining in my heart, "Are you a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle? How can you be so tolerant!"
He was thinking about how to continue provoking Ta Lei, but he saw Zhu Biao shaking his head slightly towards him, indicating that he should stop there.
Since it was Zhu Biao's wish, Han Du naturally obeyed. After laughing twice, he turned around and ignored Tare. Seeing everyone holding the wine glass staring at him in shock, Han Du raised his hands and said with a smile: "The city lord held such a grand banquet, why did everyone stop? Come on, play the music, keep playing, Keep drinking..."
drink wine......
After hearing Han Du's words, many people lowered their heads and looked at the wine glasses in their hands. The wine that was once rare has now become so difficult to swallow in their eyes.
Facing Han Du's toast invitation, everyone followed Han Du and took a sip with fake enthusiastic smiles on their faces. But none of them had the intention to taste the wine, and they just felt a mixed feeling in their hearts.
Ta Lei felt relieved when he saw that Handu no longer pestered him. He had lost a great deal of humiliation here today. Not only had he lost his own face, he had also completely lost the face of the empire and the Great Khan. He didn't want to stay here for a long time. After seeing Han Du turn around, he quietly took two steps back, turned around and left here with others, without even a trace of nostalgia.
Han Du saw Ta Lei leaving and ignored him. Instead, he waved his arms and shouted loudly: "Keep playing music, keep dancing..."
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was extremely awkward. Except for Han Du and his party, everyone else had forced smiles on their faces. All of them wanted to leave here immediately and wait until they figured out how to face Han Du and others before they responded.
But Han Du was always in a high mood. Although he failed to liven up the awkward atmosphere, no one dared to leave without permission.
When Han Du felt that it was almost done, he bowed slightly towards the city lord and said: "City Lord, I wonder if Han Du can use this place to announce something?"
After understanding the meaning of Hard's report to Handu, the city lord quickly moved out of the way and made a gesture of invitation.
Han Du was not polite and stood up to face the crowd without hesitation.
Others have been paying attention to Han Du since Ta Lei left. Now seeing that he seemed to be making a big move, everyone couldn't help but gather around him.
