At the viewing hall on the city gate tower, the envoy of Xia State Li Dewang also looked at the majestic parade army below with interest. As the prince of Xia State, he secretly entered the country from the Jin State, transferred to Shandong, and then arrived at the Ming State by sea.

Although time has taken a little longer, it is due to safety. Even though it is still hostile to the Jin Kingdom on the surface, after years of fierce battles between the two sides, people's livelihood has declined. If the battle continues, it will be of no benefit to both sides.

So in private, both sides are actually in contact with the quarantine.

But suddenly I heard that a new force had emerged on the east side of the Khan Court, and it was of the same origin as the Mongols. This made the Xia king and ministers, who were oppressed and breathless under the Mongol cavalry, see hope of getting out of trouble.

Therefore, making good friends with the Ming State became one of the established national policies of the Xia State.

When he arrived in Shangjing, based on his experience and feelings, his understanding of the Ming Dynasty became more profound. Although the founding of the country was very short, and even the real nominal founding was only today. But everything the Ming Dynasty saw was very different from the Mongolian Khanate.

Although there are too many countries conquered, there are also people of all ethnic groups in the territory of the Khan Court. Except for Mongolian Nayan, the master, everyone else is a low-ranking herd slave. Therefore, the customs and customs in the Khan Court are filled with deep depression and numbness.

Although the people of all ethnic groups lived in the Ming Dynasty, they were full of vitality. Moreover, there were no slaves in the Ming Dynasty. Especially at this founding ceremony, all the people who were still slaves could become free people.

But this freedom comes at a price!

It is necessary to open up land, work, serve in the army or otherwise for the Ming Dynasty. Although this is rewarded, it also controls the people who have just become free people in disguise.

In addition, the Ming Dynasty government changed its name and re-revised the "Ming Dynasty Law". In terms of the law, it strictly prohibits the people from raising private slaves. If someone is secretly raised, the slave family will be abolished immediately after being reported and verified. The whistleblower and slave workers can also obtain part of the property of the owner.

As soon as this article was released, those who had private slaves quickly signed an employment agreement with the slave workers to avoid being reported and becoming suckers.

However, this does not mean that there will be no slaves in the Ming Dynasty in the future!

In fact, slave labor without human rights is still in line with part of the interests of the Ming Dynasty. For example, high-intensity labor such as bridges and roads are built, mining, and forced land reclamation all require these arbitrary slave labor to participate.

Therefore, there will still be official slaves in the Ming Dynasty. However, there will be no more official slaves for life, and they will generally be pardoned after a certain period of time. This is like serving a sentence in prison. When the time comes, you can still gain freedom.

This is also to provide slave labor enthusiasm. After all, hopeless days and hopeless days are two completely different mentalities. The Ming government did not want the slave labor to look lifeless when working.

Due to his vision and cognition, Li Dewang did not understand the reason why the Ming Dynasty prohibited the raising of private slaves but allowed the existence of official slaves. He only knew that this time he came to Ming Dynasty, he would never return without success.

For example, the famous fire tube thing in the Battle of Shandong was something that Xia Kingdom actively desires this time. In addition, if we reach a certain peace agreement with the Jin Kingdom, Song Kingdom and Ming Kingdom on trade, it will be even more icing on the cake.

If we can agree to send troops to fight against the Mongolian Khanate together, it would be even more pleasant. Unfortunately, except for the accident of the Ming Dynasty, the Xia, Jin and Song states all had deep grudges and were more prepared for each other than trust. Therefore, if we want to reach a resolution to fight against the Mongolian government, the difficulty can be imagined.

Thinking of this, a group of "Funeral Teams" carrying coffins were welcomed on the official road below. Anyone who has been in the army knows the effectiveness of the "Funeral Team". There are almost no city gates that they cannot blow up or take down.

"I heard that Yidu's city gate was blown up by such a coffin?" Li Dewang asked the current Yidu Mansion Commander Kang Willie.

Since a fire burned Yidu City, this place with no city or person and no oil or water to reap. It was rewarded by the Khanate to Conwelly by the Khanate.

After being defeated by the soldiers of the Khan Court, the other party privately took the initiative to send a large amount of money and property to Shi Tianni to show his goodwill. Then, through his dredging, he was able to surrender to Bolu. So, like Dong You before, he transformed himself into a king's flag and became a general of the Mongols.

However, because the Yidu Mansion had experienced a great war, the people's livelihood was in decline. There was no one under Conwell's men, so he came to Beijing in person to congratulate the joy of the founding of the Ming Dynasty. In this way, he was also showing goodwill to the Ming Dynasty, so as not to suffer from the disaster like the Red Coat Army.

Listening to Li Dewang's question, Conwelly's face turned dark several times in an instant. After all, the Yidu City was captured, which was not a glorious thing for the Red Coat Army and the soldiers of the Khan Court that were disgraced. Moreover, he was a traitor who changed the King's Flag twice, so he felt even more uneasy.

Dong You, who had not made a sound at this time, suddenly said: "The coffin contains gunpowder that burns at a glance. Although I did not use my own actions to knock down the city gate with my own eyes, I heard that it was very powerful and only 100 kilograms of city gate was broken."

As he said that, he said to Conwley again: "Kang Dushuai must have been not present at that time, so he didn't know about this."

"Enter Dong said so much." Feeling Dong's kindness, Conwelly raised his wine glass to him, thanking him for his rescue.

Such a small episode could not affect the warm atmosphere of the ceremony. After the funeral team, there were tall thundercast machines. The thick projection machine tools and dark fire thunder made people feel a solemn atmosphere.

Such things are exactly what all the envoys present are interested in.

According to Cao Dewang, since the rise of Manzhouli, the Ming Dynasty has achieved all the contributions of this firearm in all major and small battles. Especially this fire thunder, it can be called a powerful weapon to siege the city.

What made them even happier was that after the thunderbolt shooting machine, the ones who came on the field were all equipped with fire tubes. They held the fire tubes high towards the sky while walking, and immediately roared with a bang after igniting the lead.

Nothing can be as shocked as the scene when the fire tube was fired in front of me! After special treatment, the explosives in the fire tube were not mixed with broken porcelain pieces, iron nails and other hidden weapons that hurt people, but when the falling flames sprinkled on all parts of the city gate tower, the envoys present still burst into cold sweat.

Because the effective range of this fire tube has exceeded that of ordinary bows and arrows.

"Buy! No matter what, you must buy it!" Li Dewang sweared secretly in his heart. The other envoys also had the intention to get it. The Minister of Revenue Harstin and the Minister of War Yesubuhua looked at the expressions of these people and were already happy.
Chapter completed!
