The huge five-masted sailing ship was close to the opponent's small fishing boat-like flagship.
As the weak Big Food Empire, the third prince of the Black Mustang tribe, Abdulla, climbed up from the dropped Range Rover with two attendants.
As for taking his maid and taking a woman on a pirate ship on the vast sea.
Do not be silly
Anyone like him who knows how to play knows how dangerous it is, let alone the attendants around him.
Climbing onto the mast ship, looking at the huge deck and the armed personnel on board, my eyes were full of surprises.
The huge hull was filled with armored soldiers. There were several huge bed crossbows around the ship, and arrows on the bed crossbows were as thick as their thighs and shone coldly.
If we hit him this time, our little boat will most likely be destroyed.
Some of those leather-armored warriors wore ordinary linen clothes. Some are half-god leather armor, some are half-leather and half-iron. The weapon in his hand is slightly more similar, it seems to be the Tang Dynasty's horizontal sword.
Judging from the opponent's stance and bursts of killing intent, they are both elite warriors. Their elite level is no less than that of the guards around my father. If they are pirates, even if they can't buy a ship, if they can spend some time with them, their status will definitely improve a lot.
Abdullah started to have wild thoughts...
use
Zhang Zhongjian was not in a hurry and glanced at the other person with big eyes. He was dressed gorgeously and had some gems and gold on his body. The skin on his face was well maintained. He really looked like a young man from a wealthy family or a tribe.
As for the tiger's mouth, don't be deceived by this. As an inland tribe, horseback archery is a compulsory course.
Such a large sea-going ship has never been seen anywhere except in the Tang Dynasty. Especially for a landlocked country like Dashi. His Majesty the Holy Emperor Mingzun of the Tang Dynasty was so great that not many people could compare with him.
talk
"Hello, leader, I am Apudula xxxxxxx, the third prince of the Black Mustang tribe from the Dashi Empire."
"How are you? I'm Zhang Zhongjian, the dragon-bearded guest in the sea."
dragon?
In their mythical stories, dragons are usually disasters. The prince was stunned when he heard the other party's nickname.
This name is a bit unpleasant, and combined with the fact that the other party keeps saying that he is a pirate, could it be that the other party really is?
He looked at Zhang Zhongjian carefully again and saw that Zhang Zhongjian was wearing leather armor. Even though he looked greasy, he could feel that the other person was not ordinary.
"This armor of yours?"
Zhang Zhongjian answered the other party with a relaxed expression: "Shark skin"
shark?
After the two parties communicated for a while, Abdullah understood. The sharks in the sea are very ferocious. Being able to use the skin of this creature as armor is considered to be the best even though they can eat as much as they want.
However, he looked at the soldiers standing around him and couldn't help but scratch his head slightly. He felt like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.
"Then, Your Excellency Haijiaolong, I wonder what you and I are doing in the sea area?"
After expressing some displeasure on his face, Zhang Zhongjian continued to answer the other party in a calm tone: "The military discipline of the Tang Dynasty was very strict, and I had a dispute with the previous emperor. Zhao'an ran away with his people later."
All Zhang Zhongjian's words are true. Zhang Zhongjian did have some entanglements with Li Shimin, and he was indeed followed, and he even brought people here.
Even if the other party used some caravans or personally sent people to sneak into Chang'an City to detect information, nothing would be found out. After all, Zhang Zhongjian told the truth.
As for the story behind it, it is the vanguard fleet that helped the Li family conquer the world. He couldn't survive overseas and was recruited, and then was sent by Li Mingda to conquer territory here.
The words are very simple, but the content is quite a lot. Even a person like Apudula knows through the caravans that the Holy Emperor Mingzun of the Tang Dynasty is the new emperor who has only been on the throne for a few years, and he can also imagine the complexity of his rise to power.
After all, he knew that the fight for inheritance among brothers within his Black Horse tribe was lively enough, let alone the Tang Empire, which was fighting back and forth with their Great Food Empire (with heavy losses).
"The Tang Empire, I know, our Dashi has fought many battles with it, and the warriors we use..." There are a lot of bala bala, knowing that they have suffered a lot of defeats here, Apu Dora still boasted about her own people.
Zhang Zhongjian and others naturally knew how tyrannical the Tang Dynasty cavalry was, and they seemed a little unhappy about Xinzhong's boast of dealing with them.
Next to Zhang Zhongjian, Li Mingda had the imperial guards sent by Li Mingda and the missionaries of the Mingzun Holy Sect. Listening to the other party's bragging, the unhappiness on his face showed.
As a human being, Zhang Zhongjian knew that it was okay for the other party to brag, but if he dared to verbally attack Mingzun Saint Emperor Li Mingda, this guy would end up dead today.
"Stop bragging. If you Dashi were really that good at talking, the city-states in the Western Region would have been yours long ago, and I wouldn't have to bring my brothers here to make a living."
"What's the meaning?"
"Look at the warriors on my deck."
"Elite"
"In the Tang Dynasty, they can only be regarded as ordinary soldiers, and some are even worse than ordinary soldiers."
Forehead.....
Not only was he interrupted when he was bragging, but he was also seen through. Even Abdullah's face turned slightly red. After all, he was also a person who wanted to save face.
"Well, Your Excellency Haijiaolong, are you happy?"
In the eyes of Abdulla, Zhang Zhongjian's words probably had the same purpose as his own, to brag a little about his national power.
"Then why do you think I have to go far away and come here to fight for my territory when I have such elites?"
Zhang Zhongjian's question made Abdullah temporarily speechless. After all, he knew the results of those disastrous defeats on land, and he couldn't hide it even if he inquired about it.
Because of their defeat in the war with the Tang Dynasty in the east, the Roman survivors in the west were particularly excited. They also specially sent people to deliver letters to ridicule their Dashi Empire, which made their Dashi hands very angry.
They wanted to lead the cavalry to flatten them, but the Romans and the New Egyptians united, and their side did not have an advantage in the fight, so they could only slowly accumulate strength.
Before he came, he also heard that there were some Vikings in the north, across the mountains and later. They were north of these Romans. The big leader was trying to contact each other and attack those Romans from north to south.
But the news was not so optimistic. He heard that the Vikings also had some opponents, one seemed to be named Joan of Arc and the other was called Pendragon. The news brought by the caravan also said that there was a dragon knight, which he felt was a bit unreliable. Spectrum.
"Um, so why did you say you came here?"
"Of course I want to be a pirate."
"Well, I think it's better for us to talk. I heard that there is a saying in the Tang Dynasty that peace brings wealth. How about I spend a lot of money to buy your ship?"
"You can get money if you kill you, hahahahaha"
Zhang Zhongjian's laughter seemed hearty, but there was a hint of ferocity inside, and the expression on his cooperative face really made Abdulla's little yellow flower tense.

Look at the Empress of the Tang Dynasty.
