Chapter 1939: Dazed by victory

Since his first visit to Lu, Ibrahim Pasha saw an increasingly powerful country, and he became vigilant, and even felt a sense of crisis that Lu would become a powerful enemy of the Ottoman. Then he wanted to persuade Sudan to prevent this Lu State, which was increasingly threatening to the Ottoman. .

But now he obviously has no idea.

In fact, along the way, Ibrahim Pasha was worried.

Ye Chunqiu saw this and wanted to know the reason in his heart, so he decided to go straight to the point and said, "What's the matter with this envoy coming here? According to our previous agreement, I am also preparing to board the train to move westward and prepare to personally expedition, but I don't know how your country is prepared?"

Ibrahim Pasha stumbled: "Things have changed a little."

Hearing Ibrahim Pasha's answer, Ye Chunqiu relaxed at this time. If Ibrahim Pasha fooled him, he would have to be alert. But he said that things had changed, which showed that the other party came with sincerity.

"Well? Could it be that your country is unwilling to keep the agreement?" Ye Chunqiu's eyebrows sank and pretended to be angry.

Ibrahim Pasha quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, please don't misunderstand. The reason for the incident is that it is related to the north of the Ottoman. The Franchise launched an eastern expedition to fight the Ottoman in Bulgaria. At this time, His Majesty the Sultan had no time to look south."

Eastern Expedition...

It's actually an expedition?

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but say in his heart, are you kidding me?

Ye Chunqiu of course knew about the Crusade, but the problem was that this Eastern Expedition was hundreds of years ago.

Speaking of the Franchise continent, it was like a piece of loose sand. Portugal and the Spanish Empire were busy sailing, while France was surrounded by the Habsburg family. They even secretly colluded with the Ottomans to conclude secret treaties to curb Spain and the Holy Roman Empire. The pope's prestige was getting lower and he was unable to organize the crusades. Even if there were, on land, a group of Franchise countries gathered together and temporarily pieced together more than 100,000 or 200,000 people. The Ottoman had hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and generals, so it was not so.

Ye Chunqiu's first reaction was that Ibrahim Pasha was fooling himself. But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong. Why did he fool himself? What are the benefits of fooling himself?

Ye Chunqiu said: "Since that's the case, your country means that you should organize an army now to compete with the Franchise?"

But Ibrahim Pasha sighed faintly and said, "If you only fight against the male and female, as the chief guard of the Sultan's bedroom, why should you abandon His Majesty the Sultan and come here at this time?"

He paused and finally said: "Just seventeen days ago, the Sultan's army fought with the Franchise in Montenegro. His Majesty Sultan invested 60,000 imperial guards and wanted to deal with the Franchise in one breath. But who knew that the opponent's combat power was extremely strong. In one day, the Imperial Guards were defeated and lost more than 30,000 people. His Majesty Sultan's army had to retreat to the front line of Bulgaria and wait for an opportunity to fight the other side."

In fact, there were some things Ibrahim Pasha hidden from Ye Chunqiu, that is, these Franchise men had very sharp firearms, which was the key to the defeat of the Imperial Guards. In addition, the impact of this battle was too great.

The rise of the Ottoman Empire is indeed a miracle to some extent, but what followed has also brought many problems. There are many ethnic groups in Central Asia and Eastern Europe. His Majesty the Sultan relies on strong rule to intimidate all ethnic groups within the territory. But once the Ottoman Empire begins to weaken, then the disintegration begins.

This battle was really defeated too much, which caused the resistance movements of the Greeks, Bulgarians, and even Egyptians and Berbers in the territory to intensify.

The most important thing is that after this stop, the morale of the Ottomans was extremely sluggish, but the Franchises who fought in the east were sharpening their knives for some reason. Even the Spanish fleets had already attacked Greece, and they might even land directly on the abdomen of the empire.

His Majesty Sultan soon realized this huge risk. The Sultan intended to seek peace, but the other party's attitude seemed to hope to occupy Istanbul.

This... is something that His Majesty Sultan would never accept. He could even give up Greece, but he would never allow his country to be given to the Franchise. It is said that the Franchise is now blinded by victory. The previous slogan was to conquer Constantinople, which is now Istanbul, but now he said he wanted to fight to Jerusalem.

In their opinion, these people are like madmen!

You know, there is no way to negotiate with the madman. However, the loss of this battle was unforgettable. At this time, Ibrahim Pasha thought of Lu again and reported the matter to His Majesty the Sultan!

His Majesty the Sultan seems to have a willingness, hoping that Ibrahim Pasha will come here to try it out. This... is what Ibrahim Pasha is coming.

The news that Ibrahim Pasha mentioned was a bit shocking for Ye Chunqiu.

Although he knew that the Francosman had begun to rise now, especially after the Renaissance and the Great Voyage, the situation of being left behind and beaten has improved greatly, he remembered that even the Ottoman Empire a hundred years later still had many advantages over the Francosman, let alone now?

It was no wonder that the Ottomans began to panic. This must be the elite of the Ottoman Empire. How could people not panic if they lost so thoroughly?

Ye Chunqiu thought again, things have become like this. At this time, it is impossible to divide Persia. So what is the purpose of Ibrahim Pasha?

This reason is worth considering when we arrive here during this critical period.

Ye Chunqiu stared at Ibrahim Pasha, guessing his thoughts in his heart.

Ibrahim Pasha obviously understood what Ye Chunqiu meant. He smiled bitterly in his heart. He had concealed some situations, of course because he had other purposes.

Ibrahim Pasha said: "Your Highness, I came here this time by His Majesty Sultan. Since the Ottoman had an alliance with your country at this time, His Majesty Sultan hopes that His Majesty can send troops to assist in the war."

This... is the real purpose.

Ye Chunqiu finally understood.

But Ye Chunqiu was a little suspicious. It was never easy to ask other countries to help the war! The Ottoman Sultan should not be a fool. Don’t he know that if the Lu army entered Istanbul, it would be very likely that it would be easy to invite gods and send gods to gods?
