Hungarian envoy?
When Lan Yu's guard heard what he said, he frowned and his eyes flickered with reluctance: "Oh, Hungarian, forget it, someone will come over and bring you food later."
After saying that, the guard asked someone to take the food away again.
Before leaving, he did not forget to apologize to the Hungarian envoy: "I'm really sorry. I didn't know you lived here, so it was so disturbing."
"..."
The Hungarian envoy wanted to say something more, but Lan Yu's guard turned around and left without giving him a chance to continue speaking.
Soon, someone came over and brought ordinary meals, and even the drinks were rum that tasted like swill.
The person who came to accompany him was Firuz Shah, the king of the Delhi Sultan.
Firuz Shah himself did not want the Hungarian and Ottoman people to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. He wanted to see the two kingdoms resist the Ming Dynasty and then be crushed by the Ming Dynasty.
Now, Firuz Shah's mentality is morbid. He feels that he has changed from a king to the younger brother of a general in the Ming Dynasty. This sense of gap makes Firuz Shah's mentality gradually morbid.
So, he wants revenge.
If they want to take revenge on those kings who have a higher status than themselves and are more powerful than the Sultan of Delhi, they become people with a lower status than him. They don't even have the skills to become the younger brothers of the Ming Dynasty generals. They can only become servants or even prisoners. Firuz Shah felt a little better.
Originally, Firuzsha was a little unhappy when he heard Lan Yu ask him to receive the Hungarian envoy.
Even the king of Hungary didn't come. Isn't this ignoring you, Lan Yu?
Wouldn't it be easier to just send troops to fight and defeat both of their countries?
In Firuz Shah's view, the Ming army led by Lan Yu had no problem taking down Hungary and the Ottomans. As for the other Ilkhanate, Firuz Shah was not included in the statistics at all. The Ilkhanate was already dead. , is now being occupied by Chen Youliang.
Firuzisha was reluctant, but Lan Yu gave the order and he had to come, but what should he do... Lan Yu was not here, so he could make his choice at will.
After meeting the Hungarian envoy, he sat down without giving the envoy a chance to introduce himself. When the envoy bowed, Firuzsha said directly: "Okay, I will not use any false etiquette. Let's sit down together." Have a meal."
After saying that, Firuzsha became angry when he saw the food on the table. He slammed the table and shouted angrily at the Hungarian envoy: "You just serve me with these things? You are obviously looking down on me! You guys are looking down on me!" Does Hungary want to bear the wrath of the Ming Dynasty and my Sultan of Delhi?"
Although the Sultan of Delhi now exists in name only, Firuz Shah is still the king in name only. He may not be able to scare the Ming Dynasty people, but there is still no problem in scaring the Hungarian envoy who has been panicking for a long time.
The Hungarian envoy was very flustered when he saw Firouzsa being so unreasonable, and quickly explained that these meals were not prepared by him, but were replaced by Lan Yu.
When Firuzisha heard that the meal was prepared by someone sent by Lan Yu, he immediately changed his tune and scolded the Hungarian envoy: "Since it was sent by General Lan, why don't you eat it? Don't you take General Lan seriously?" ?"
"..."
Where has the Hungarian envoy ever seen someone change his face so quickly? I was scared to tears.
I had known for a long time that being a messenger was not a good thing, but I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to come here. Not to mention being ignored, I was even threatened.
This old man from Hungary was so frightened that his heart accelerated a lot.
The Hungarian envoy thought about the difference and gritted his molar teeth, but no matter how loud he was, there was nothing he could do. The Ming Dynasty did not bother to cooperate with them... In other words, when the Ottoman envoy came here, he had already made up his mind to cooperate with them. Daming cooperated.
"Ottoman's envoy, a bastard who doesn't mean what he means!"
The Hungarian envoy cursed in his heart, but he showed more respect on his face. After all, the Firuzsha in front of him was too vicious, and the first priority was to save his life.
Firuz Shah's arrogant performance made the Hungarian envoy know everything about him: "Dear His Royal Highness the Sultan of Delhi, you may have some misunderstandings about our king. He is currently preparing for a war with Chen Youliang and Wang Baobao. Unfortunately, he is next to him. The Ottoman Empire has been constraining us, and our King is very capable..."
At this time, the Hungarian envoy didn't care whether what he said was true or false. As long as he could describe himself as miserable and the Ottomans and other countries as hateful, as long as Firuzsha believed it, he didn't care about himself. What is said is true or false.
Firuzsha was listening. He did not express any opinions. He listened to whatever the other party said, but he could still tell that the two countries, Ottoman and Hungary, were very afraid of the Ming Dynasty. It could even be said that they were afraid. Not even important ministers dared to send over... The envoys coming now are just two fringe figures.
In addition, the relationship between the Ottomans and Hungary was very poor. The two countries were on guard against each other and even fought. However, due to the deterrence of the Ming Dynasty, they did not dare to fight among themselves anymore, but shifted their targets to the Ming Dynasty.
Firuzsha thought he had some reliable information, and then said pretentiously to the Hungarian envoy: "Well, you are right, and I can see that you are very sincere and better than the Ottoman envoy." A lot, let’s do this, I will report what you said to the general of the Ming Dynasty, don’t worry, he will treat you fairly.”
Hearing that Firuzsha spoke for Hungary, the Hungarian envoy was immediately overjoyed and kept bowing to thank him. Firuzsha was very proud to see the Hungarian envoy who kept bowing. He finally found the joy of being a king in others. .
…
Unlike Firouz Shah's meeting with the Hungarian envoy, the Ottoman envoy on the other side was lifted to the sky.
The Ottoman envoy, who was sitting on the main seat, felt an unreal feeling when he looked at Lan Yu, who was drinking and laughing next to him.
It turns out that our Ottoman Empire is stronger than the Ming Dynasty?
No, when I watched the military exercise, the weapons displayed by the Ming Dynasty were something the Ottoman Empire had never possessed before. The earth-shattering artillery was like the thunder god descending from the sky.
However, there was one thing that the Ottoman envoy didn't quite understand. The Ming Dynasty was so powerful. They wanted to fight the Ottomans without fear at all. But why... was this general from the Ming Dynasty so respectful to him?
Can't figure it out.
While drinking and enjoying themselves in the evening, the Ottoman envoy felt anxious and went out to find a place to solve his physical problems. While solving the problem, he suddenly heard someone chatting next to him.
"Today, our buddy earned ten gold coins, hahahaha... He just did some work of burying gunpowder, and then lit it, so there's nothing wrong with us."
"What's wrong with you? Who asked you to say this? Didn't General Lan say it? This matter is rotten to our stomachs, and no one can say it!"
"Isn't it just the two of us? It's okay, brother."
The Ottoman envoy was so drunk that he felt sober after hearing the conversation between the two.
It turns out that everything I saw during the military exercise today was fake.
Daming is bluffing!
He immediately pretended not to know anything, turned around and left, going back to continue drinking.
The two people who were talking in secret kept watching him leave before turning back into the darkness.
…
The next day, when the Ottoman envoy woke up, the first thing that came to his mind was the conversation he overheard last night. He suddenly realized a very serious problem.
Why can I understand the conversation between the two of them?
This shouldn't be the case.
When he was talking to Lan Yu, there were special translators around him to translate the conversation between the two, but he was able to understand the Ming Dynasty's conversation last night.
This is a trap!
Da Ming is showing weakness to the enemy, but in fact Da Ming is much stronger than he imagined!
Ah, this...
What is Daming going to do?
Do they want to fight us?
Such an idea popped into the mind of the Ottoman envoy, and he suddenly lost his composure.
Can the Ottomans defeat such a powerful Ming Dynasty?
I can't beat him, I can't afford to offend him either.
The Ottoman envoy's whole body was numb. He originally thought that after arriving here, he was entertained by Ming to achieve cooperation, but he did not expect that Ming was digging a trap for them.
"The people of Ming Dynasty are so insidious!"
Although the Ottoman envoy complained about their emperor sending him, he still believed that he was an Ottoman person from the bottom of his heart. As an Ottoman minister, he should do something for his kingdom.
The Ottoman envoy went to the Hungarian envoy and told him that the current Ming Dynasty had ulterior motives. It was a lie that they went to fight Chen Youliang and Wang Baobao, but it was true that they wanted to annex the Ottomans and Hungary together. Therefore, facing the powerful Ming Dynasty, the two countries should unite. Take action and resist together.
The Hungarian envoys had already regarded the Ottoman envoys as their enemies. They made good promises when they came. They were just here for a formality. Who knew that they would turn around and hook up with Ming Dynasty? Yesterday, he finally won the trust of Firuz Shah. , still thinking about improving the relationship with Ming Dynasty, who knew that the Ottoman envoy came to sow discord again.
Can you believe it?
"snort!"
The Hungarian envoy did not listen at all and said directly to the Ottoman envoy: "I came here to convey the goodwill of the Kingdom of Hungary to the generals of the Ming Dynasty. We are friends with the Ming Dynasty and will never accept sowing discord!"
"..."
The Ottoman envoys were stunned.
what on earth is it?
Didn’t we make an agreement when we came? Everyone is just here to go through the motions, and in the end they will definitely join forces to fight against Ming Dynasty.
Why is this the result now?
Unwilling to give in, he wanted to struggle again: "We...didn't we agree?"
But the Hungarian envoy did not want to give him a chance to continue struggling. He waved his hand and said: "Goodbye! I will inform our King of what happened here. The Ottoman Kingdom will always be the enemy of the Hungarian Kingdom!"
"..."
The Ottoman envoy was completely confused.
What exactly is going on?
I just had a meal with Lan Yu, why should I be so angry?
…
The envoys from the two kingdoms came together, but when they left, they took different paths.
All this is within Lan Yu's plan.
It's just a series of plans connected together to make the two envoys turn against each other.
First, he snubbed the Hungarian envoy, and then played a counter-routine, "Jiang Gan stole the book", and successfully deceived the Ottoman envoy.
If these plans are used domestically, Lan Yu's efforts will definitely be useless. The ministers in the court are all smarter than monkeys and will not be easily fooled.
However, Sapphire's plan was placed abroad and used on the Ottomans and Hungary, which seemed very lofty.
In Dou Xinyan's case, the Central Plains are the ancestors of these foreign natives.
Palace scheming, this is a dimensionality reduction attack from the Ming Dynasty. It has been mentioned in the art of war. Subduing the enemy's troops without fighting is the highest state of a general's use of troops.
How to defeat others without fighting?
Conspiracy or stratagem.
This time Lan Yu used two simple strategies together, resulting in a chemical reaction that directly defeated the two dynasties.
The feud between the Ottomans and Hungary may be an inevitable outcome.
Besides, the relationship between their two countries was not good to begin with, but a Ming Dynasty appeared in the middle, forcing them to put aside their differences and unite.
"It's a pity, it's useless."
Lan Yu took a sip of tea happily and looked at Zhang Dingbian next to her: "General Zhang, what do you think of the plan I gave you before?"
Zhang Dingbian was no longer in a hurry. He was still pretending to be stupid after hearing Lan Yu's words: "Plan? What plan?"
"???"
You, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, have learned to play dumb with me, right?
Lan Yu almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He looked at Zhang Dingbian and reminded him again: "I'm talking about the attack on Chen Youliang and Wang Baobao. How are you thinking about it?"
"Didn't we agree on this matter a long time ago? Let's cooperate."
Zhang Dingbian looked at Lan Yu and seemed to have a feeling of being wrong: "General Lan, do you think we won't cooperate? How is this possible! I will do it on the first day you told me We are ready to cooperate, and we are very well prepared. We don’t know what will happen to Wang Baobao later, so I asked Lao Zhou... that is Zhou Buxin. He has already gone to find the most suitable path. Are you asking me to stay? You said there was something important for me to participate in, so I stayed. Oh... I have to say, General Lan, your plan is really powerful. The two envoys are like playthings, played by you in the palm of your hands. It's wonderful! It's wonderful. !”
Zhang Dingbian looked educated, but Lan Yu's face darkened when he heard this.
I am setting up a stage and singing here to get you a wife, right?
I haven't even started taking action yet, and you started taking action?
Zhang Dingbian, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, is really not a good guy!
"Okay, you can do it!"
Lan Yu extended her thumb to Zhang Dingbian, "Old Zhang, Old Zhang, you are so insidious! I set up a stage to sing, and in the end you became the protagonist! It's interesting!"
This is the first time Lan Yu has been tricked by someone, and he can now see clearly that Zhang Dingbian is not as honest as he seems on the surface.
